Oread Neighborhood says The Hawk should close at 12
(USPS 650-640)
Owner wants city to say 2 a.m. closing time OK
By Chris Fickott Kansan staff writer
The Oread Neighborhood Association isn't the only group that wants regulations placed on a neighborhood bar.
a Neighborhood Residents of Sunflower House, 1406 Tennessee St., some of whom are KU students, understand why Oread neighborhood residents are upset about the possibility of The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., closing at 2 a.m. instead of midnight.
Since January, The Hawk had been operating under a cereal malt beverage license, which mandated a midnight closing time. In September, John Heleni bought The Hawk and was granted a state drinking establishment license, which would let the bar stay open until 2 a.m. with the city's approval.
with the city's approval.
The Lawrence City Commission issued The Hawk a temporary license on the condition that it continue to close at midnight. Heleniak already was closing the bar at midnight as a gesture of goodwill to the neighborhood.
ture of good manners.
However, Matthew All, Heleniak's attorney,
said The Hawk wanted the commission to allow
The Hawk to stay open until 2 a.m.
The commission could decide whether to grant Helenik the license with or without conditions Tuesday.
Greg Seibel, Lawrence graduate student and Sunflower resident, said that when Bull Winkles Bar, 1344 Tennessee St., used to close at 2 a.m., noise from the beer garden disturbed residents of Sunflower.
He also said the noise problem was exacerbated when customers left Bull Winkles and walked on Tennessee Street after the 2 a.m. closing time.
Since Bull Winkles' license was revoked in December 1997, and it reopened in January under a cereal malt beverage license, Seibel said that Bull Winkles' customers had not been as disruptive to Sunflower residents.
"I think that the midnight close takes care of those problems," he said.
Seibel said that the city should be able to oppose a bar that routinely received complaints about noise or fights in the street.
Marci Francisco and Linda Hixon of the Oread
Neighborhood Association don't want The Hawk to close, but they would like a compromise that would please both residents and bar patrons.
"It would be nice to limit the hours of that kind of noise," Francisco said.
Hixon said the association did not want to close any bar down.
"We want to make the neighborhood a place to live and to party," she said. "A certain amount

Management of KU hospital operated on
By Sue Franke Kansan staff writer
As of today, the University of Kansas Hospital will be run more like a business and less like a state hurearacy.
Gov. Bill Gravas has appointed a 14-member independent board that officially took charge of hospital operations yesterday. Chancellor Robert Hemenway is chairman of the new Hospital Authority Board.
"We now have tremendous flexibility," said Executive Vice Chancellor Donald Hagen. "We are no longer tied down in management if we want to make a change. The bureaucracy will not hold us back."
Previously, the hospital, a part of the University of Kansas Medical Center, had to go through the University of Kansas, the Board of Regents and the Kansas Legislature, if necessary, for approval of funding and other decisions involving its operations.
ing is operational." "Prior to the change, the hospital was part of the state system so it couldn't enter into contracts without Board of Regents' approval," said State Sen. Sandy Praeger, a board member. "It's hard to operate in a managed-care environment that way."
The hospital will be able to compete in the managed care marketplace.
"The Authority will allow the hospital to have access to capital for facility improvements, equipment needs and to expand services and facilities," said Irene Cumming,
The new board frees up the hospital's financial operations.
"Up to now, hospital costs have been paid by patient revenue, and that revenue has been folded back into a state budget," Hagen said. "The hospital, therefore, hasn't received the interest on its own money. Also, because it has been a state agency, the hospital couldn't borrow on its equity like other corporations, which has been a financial hindrance."
The Hospital Authority Board is responsible for determining policies on personnel and will develop systems for purchasing, Cumming said.
Hagen said that patients would benefit from the new structure, too.
"Instead of following whether or not patient care meets with state regulations, patients will be recognized as the ones driving the organization," he said.
Graves signed Senate Bill 373 into law Feb. 17, 1998. The bill, which details the Board's responsibilities, took a year to pass. Part of the delay was because of an abortion component added to the bill. The provision restricts abortions at the hospital, except in cases when a woman's life is in danger, according to a statement from Graves' office.
Praeger said fewer than 20 abortions had been performed at the hospital in 1997 and that the provision in the bill would not create an imposition for the hospital.
Many local fraternities jump on the wagon
Becoming booze-free a trend among chapters
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
One of the newest ways to curb fraternity drinking is a term that has swept the nation in the last few years: alcohol-free housing.
This doesn't imply that fraternity members are going to stop drinking, but it does mean that some chapters will not do it in their own house.
In fact, by the year 2000, there will be no alcohol at any time in any of the houses working in the Select 2000 program.
Select 2000 is a program that was developed in 1994 to reduce the risk of alcohol-related accidents in fraternity houses. The goal is to remove all alcohol from chapter houses and make them a safer environment.
make them a safer Jennifer Kinney, assistant director for Greek programs, risk management and education, said that six of the 23 fraternities at the University of Kansas already had announced that they would be alcohol free by 2000. She expected the

at it. You can say it's negative and hope that it's never going to happen, or you can accept it and look at the positive aspects," said Bob Bishop, president of Phi Delta Theta.
president of PACA Kinney said that decreased insurance rates was one of the positive aspects of going alcohol free. While sororities, which already have been alcohol-free, pay about $7 per member each year for insurance, fraternities may pay between $100 and $120, she said.
Other member of fraternities that are going to be alcohol-free think the change is positive as well.
"This program will definitely come into effect," said Charles Henderson, president of

The other five fraternities that have pledged to go alcohol-free by at least 2000 are Phi Gamma Delta, Delta Chi, Theta Chi, Alpha Kappa Lambda and Tau Kappa Epsilon.
Ten national chapters have announced that they will remove alcohol from the houses. Six of these chapters are represented at the University of Kansas.
"It's a growing trend at KU," said Bob Fescow, chapter president. "We decided to go ahead and make adjustments slowly so that it doesn't all happen at once."
Tau Kappa Epsilon decided locally to begin the process of going alcohol-free last semester.
Kinney said that many chapters begin by educating their members, then gradually removing hard liquor and decreasing the amount of parties at the house.

Alcohol-free fraternities increase in abundance at Kansas universities
A growing trend toward alcohol-free fraternity houses is not limited to the University of Kansas. Other universities in Kansas have fraternities that also are cutting out the alcohol.
Kansas State University, Wichita State University, Emporia State University and Washburn University all have chapters that have pledged to go alcohol-free by at least the year 2000.
Kansas State University leads the state with that have pledged that they will be alcohol-free. Kansas State has a total of 24 fraternities.
Washburn University has four fraternities, one of which is already dry. The other three are discussing the possibility.
"This is something that we're going to see within the next few years and it will lead to a dry campus," said Tametha Engholm, director of student activities and Greek life at Washburn.
At this time, Pittsburg State University does not have any chapters beginning the program. One chapter will announce their pledge in the next month, said Dan Stoker, assistant director of the student center for student activities at Pittsburg State.

Alcohol plays a part in fatal car accident
Alcohol was a factor in the high-speed chase that killed an 18-year-old Lawrence man last week, Lawrence police said.
Police released information yesterday confirming that alcohol was present in the car and that it contributed to the accident that killed Jance Blanco.
Police said they did not know his blood-alcohol content because the coroner's report had not been completed.
The accident occurred the morning of Sept. 23, after police observed Blanco driving west erratically on Ninth Street.
driving west critically injured. Police tried to stop the car in the Village Square parking lot, 850 Avalon St., but it drove away.
Officers then pursued Blanco west on Ninth Street.
During the pursuit, Blanco ran a stop light and a stop sign and drove through a construction site before loosening control of the car and hitting two trees, police said.
Blanco was dead on the scene. His passenger survived.

Police said that they reached a speed of 50 mph in the chase, but that they didn't know how fast Blanco was going.
Lawrence man shoots bullet into apartment
Merrival also was charged with possession of drug paraphernalia.
A Lawrence woman and her five-year-old son were awakened Saturday morning by a bullet passing through the ceiling of their apartment in the 2300 block of Ridge Court
Michael Merrival Jr., an 18-year-old Lawrence resident, was arraigned in Doug las County District Court Monday on charges of criminal discharge of a firearm and criminal damage to property.
Lawrence police said Merrival was in an upstairs apartment and had fired a gun through the floor at 5 a.m.
"The suspect went to a party upstairs, got into an altercation, removed a pistol from his pocket, fired it into the floor and left," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police said that after the woman, 26, and her son were awakened, they went into their living room, where they discovered two small holes in the ceiling.
Police said that there was only one shot fired but that the bullet probably broke into pieces as it traveled through the floor and ceiling.
Merrival was arrested at 2 a.m. Sunday and jailed. He has since been trans ferred to Jackson County Jail for other unrelated charges.

Arab leader supports U.S. claim in bombing
CAIRO, Egypt — A Sudanese pharmaceutical factory the United States destroyed last month could have been used to make chemical weapons, Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak said in an interview published yesterday.
"We know that this plant was for medicine but it is possible that it produced agents that are used in manufacturing chemical weapons," Mubarak said.
Mubarak's comments in the government-run Al-Ahram newspaper are the first by an Arab leader supporting the Clinton administration's claim that Sudan was using the plant for military purposes.
He said Sudan also has another chemical plant close to the pharmaceutical factory.
He said Sudan also has another chemical plant close to the pharmaceutical factory. Cruise missiles destroyed the factory Aug. 20 in retaliation for the bombings of U.S. embassies in Kenya and Tanzania. The bombings killed 258 people and wounded thousands.
President Clinton has said the factory was linked to an international terrorist ring led by Osama bin Laden, the alleged mastermind of the embassy bombings.
Mubarak's remarks contradict Egypt's endorsement earlier this month of an Arab League resolution supporting Sudan's claim that the plant was only producing medicine.
Sudan has called for a United Nations investigation to prove its claim. The United States has rejected such a probe, saying American intelligence has supplied enough evidence to back its position.
South Korea acquits American of murder
SEOUL, South Korea — An American teen-ager sentenced to 20 years in prison for the murder of a South Korean college student was acquitted Wednesday when an appeals court concluded his Colorado friend was probably the killer.
Edward K. Lee, 18, of New York City,
was convicted in January of fatally stabbing the South Korean man in a fight at a Burger King restaurant in Seoul.
But the country's Supreme Court ordered a retrial in April, saying there was not enough evidence.
On Wednesday, the Seoul Criminal Appellate Court ruled Lee innocent, saying it was likely that Lee's friend, Arthur Patterson, 18, of Colorado Springs, Colo., committed the murder.
Patterson was given a 1.1/2-year prison term in January for possessing a dangerous weapon and destroying evidence in the case. He was released in August in an amnesty marking Korea's Liberation Day.
Patterson was ordered not to leave the country until all court proceedings are finished.
Fire in Australian state forces food rationing
MELBOURNE, Australia — Stores began rationing bread yesterday in Australia's second most populous state, where a fire at a natural gas refinery has idled bakeries, dairies and many other businesses.
Safeway, the state's biggest supermarket chain with 138 stores, limited consumers to three loaves of bread on yesterday. Other supermarket chains were considering rationing bread and milk.
The plant supplied more than 80 percent of the natural gas for Victoria, in southeastern Australia. Esso has so far been unable to determine the cause of the blaze.
Some 1.4 million households also have been affected by the fire that killed two people and extensively damaged Esso's gas plant in the state of Victoria. The cutoff could last weeks.

City to decide closing time of The Hawk
Continued from page 1A
She said city and neighborhood leaders stood outside The Hawk one night and observed the rowdy bar crowd.
Hixon said what wasn't tolerable were noisy patrons who walked home after 2 a.m. urinating in front lawns or throwing away beer cans and bottles.
"It was that bad." she said.
"They're not out on the street disturbing your sleepings," she said.
Since The Hawk began closing at midnight this year, Hixon said that bar patrons' conduct had become more tolerable.
John Nalbandian, city commissioner and professor of public administration, said that the commission would discuss neighborhood bars in future meetings.
"I think it would be a good idea to look more broadly at neighborhood bars." he said.
At the last city commission meeting, Commissioner Erv Hodges also suggested the possibility of a neighborhood bar review.
Nalbandian said that there was a possibility the commission would establish a definition of a neighborhood bar and then would enact laws specific to bars that fit in that category.
He said that the commission would have to determine how many bars qualified as neighborhood bars before any special regulations would be passed.
"The question that comes to mind here is:
Are we opening a nest's nest?" he said.

Anti-alcohol policy drives students to drink covertly
Ban carries penalties housing officials say
By Martina Paiva and Julie M. Sach*
Konsan staff writers
Although alcohol is illegal in student housing at the University of Kansas, many students have mastered the art of sneaking it past student-housing officials.
In the 1997-98 school year, there were 250 reports of consumption or possession of alcohol in student housing.
Brice Zogleman, Wichita junior, lived in Amini Scholarship Hall last year and in Oliver Hall his freshman year. He said that the risk of being caught was not a deterrent.
"Most of the people who wanted to drink did it." he said.
Consequences range from a warning and probation for first-time offenders to transfer or expulsion from student housing for repeat offenders, said Fred McElhene, associate director of student housing.
Violators also may be reported to the dean of student life and have the violation noted in their records, McElhenie said.
To avoid consequences, students often find ways to sneak alcohol into student housing.
"When I lived in the dorms, we would carry a case of beer up the fire escape, down the hall and no one even noticed," said Stacy Brase, Lenexa junior. "We never even got in trouble."
Some students were more creative
"You would take a soda box back to your car and then carry cans of beer in the box," said Ryan Muller, Wichita senior.
He said that residence-hall officials never suspected he was carrying alcohol.
No alcohol on Daisy Hill
Once alcohol is in a student's room, student-housing officials often are caught in a bind. Even if they suspect that alcohol is being kept in a room, officials cannot immediately conduct a search.
Alcohol is illegal in student housing, even for students older than 21.
McElhenie said that student-housing officials did not search rooms because searches required warrants and the participation of police.
Housing officials must give 24 hours' notice to search rooms legally. McEhlenie
250 incidents of consumption/possession in student housing were reported in the 1997-1998 school year.
and the 1974-1995 school year.

The second offense can result in probation, removal from University housing, or transfer into different housing facility.

said that any alcohol in plain view of authorities was confiscated during searches.
The consequences for sneaking alcohol into student housing are different than entering student housing while intoxicated, said Ken Stoner, director of student housing.
Intoxicated residents usually are not punished if they got drunk outside of the residence halls, he said.
"The staff might talk to you about it." Stoner said. "If it's a pattern they might try to recommend more professional help
for an individual with drinking problems."
Zogleman said that more students got caught with alcohol in the dorms than in scholarship halls. This semester, 3,158 students live in residence halls and 435 students live in scholarship halls.
Zogleman said that scholarship-hall officials watch their residents less.
"In the scholarship halls, it is different," he said. "At least where I lived, student housing directors and proctors let you alone more often. They tried to give us more freedom."
The anti-alcohol policy also applies to Stouffer Place, which is University housing for students with families.
Although many Stouffer Place residents are old enough to legally drink alcohol, they still are not allowed to possess alcohol.
Drinking is not allowed in any University housing even if a resident is older than 21, McElhenie said.
The regulation does not sit well with many Stouffer Place residents.
"I think we should be able to drink because it is our house. We are all older. People don't usually have parties. It is a

quiet neighborhood," said Enrique Martinez-Meyer, Mexico City graduate student.
Mecimente said that drinking alcohol was pointless.
"When they overindulge, that is pretty important to me because it's kind of a ludicrous activity," McElhenie said. "Think of all the brain cells that are lost and good time, productive time."
Stoner said that if officials were unaware of the presence of alcohol in student housing, the University was not liable for alcohol-related injuries or deaths that might result.

Alcohol Agenda
2000, members will not attend fraternity house parties with alcohol present.
Fraternities won't have anyone to invite to their houses as more sororites sign on with this program, Kinney said.
Amber Packard, Chi Omega president, said that everyone in
her chapter seemed to support the mandate. Packard said that she thought that removing alcohol from the houses would increase membership.
"I think it will help the fraternities grow," she said. "I have friends who haven't joined a fraternity because they think it's going to be like Animal House."
Dave Dieffendorf, president of Delta Tau Delta, said that even though he saw the benefits, such as decreasing insurance and raising membership, he did not think his chapter would conform.
"Our headquarters' main concern is how is this going to be enforced and what problems they will have to tackle when 2000 roles around," Diefendorf said. "We're talking about alcohol — we're aware of the problem — but we're focusing on educating members more."
He said that the chapter had decided to eliminate all hard liquor from the house because of

liability reasons.
Though experts, students and alumni have speculated about the positive and negative effects of alcohol-free fraternity houses, it's difficult to assume anything until 2000.
"We hear people say that we're pushing the problem to the community," Kinney said. "But it depends on the problem we're trying to solve. This will decrease insurance, provide a safer environment and will make the house nicer. Now it depends on how this is handled when the party is moved."

Language barriers can collapse easily
Students should stop complaining about language barriers in the classroom. Instead, students should participate actively and responsibly in the sharing of ideas with their non-native, English-speaking instructors.
While they are taking classes at the University of Kansas, students may attend classes instructed by people whose native language is not English.
Many of these instructors hail from nations on the other side of the world, and students may not be aware that their instructors are probably experiencing similar communication difficulties as those of the students.
However, before instructors are given the green light to teach at the University, they must prove their proficiency in both the course material and the English language.
According to Regents policy, all faculty must be interviewed by three persons affiliated with the University, one of whom must be a student.
During interviews, if any exceptional language problems arise, appropriate recommendations are made for the improvement of the instructors' language skills, such
Foreign instructors take an English proficiency exam before teaching.
By the time they are a class, instructors command the English language with more skill than most students can manage with any foreign language.
as concurrent enrollment in an English language course.
Non-native English speaking graduate teaching assistants have proven their language fluency by taking a standard English test used to evaluate the test-taker's English speaking ability at institutions worldwide. According to a University policy set in place in 1995, GTAs must pass the test with a minimum score of 80 percent.
Even though instructors officially are proficient in the English language, sometimes accents cause misunderstandings. When students listen closely and inform their instructors of unbearable communication problems — a voice too soft or too quick — language problems usually are solved. Other problems may relate to styles of teaching rather than
those of speaking.
Often instructors accommodate students by altering their teaching styles for those students who reveal their motivation to participate in the learning process. If shared anxiety is the only form of dialogue between instructors and students, there is less of a chance for learning and maturing than if concerns are consistently and appropriately voiced.
Students already should know the appropriate moments for bringing up issues that deal with the teaching or speaking style of their instructors. Approaching instructors during their office hours, after class and through email are all convenient routes through which to voice concerns.
When students corner instructors during class to argue for grade adjustments or chatter through a lecture, students show disrespect for both their instructors and their classmates.
If students show their willingness to listen, learn and participate, and problems persist, students are encouraged to voice their concerns to the heads of the departments.

Williams shows class by talking to students
A couple of weeks ago, my friend and I decided to go to Baskin-Robbins. While we were sitting outside eating ice cream, Roy Williams pulled up in his car. He got our of his car smiling and talked with us for a few minutes. He was very

When he came out, we were shocked when again he talked to us about the football team, his recent recruiting trip and our KU basketball team.

Not all pro-life people are religious extremists
From the murders of abortion doctors to the puritanical ranting of anti- abortion rights activists, to be pro-life is thought by many to be an insensitive
I
bigot. No wonder: Fire that would make Dante whimper came from the eyes of many on campus last week. A collective "how dare you" sprang from pro-choice activists.
Perspective
However, the open-minded who ventured to listen instead of relying on defiant slogans that didn't apply, were confronted by arguments from a compassionate and respectful group.
You see, abortion is not a religious issue, it is about life, or as Donald Marquis states in his seminal paper, a "future of value" that a fetus possesses just as anyone does. Professor Marquis, is not a religious rabble-rouser to say the least. He is thoughtful and educated and so too is the pro-life position, but you won't be convinced of that unless you are willing to listen. For some (especially those who like to four-wheel on Daisy Hill) that is to much too ask.
"Diversity and understanding are great"sav
Lets dismiss another non-issue. Some prochoice individuals have the strange opinion that morality can't be legislated and perceive pro-life arguments to be essentially religiously backed. First, you would be hard-pressed to find a law not rooted in some form of ethic. If we can legislate laws against parking in a handicapped zone, I don't understand why not on abortion.
I would encourage pro-choiceers to debate abortion instead of making periphery arguments. Don't give me a lecture on how prolifiers are anti-female or intolerant. Some are, but many aren't. But this doesn't even address the topic.
the bastions of mainline campus liberalism, but oh how the "enlightened" embrace ignorance when concerning the issue of abortion. Most exhibited the typical prochoice idea of discussing abortion by ignoring pro-life viewpoints, opting to stereotype pro-lifers as religious zealots and woman hating idiots.
The founder of the Center for Bio-Ethical Reform, Gregg Cunningham, is an unusual leader of the pro-life movement. Although he has connections to militant factions that would just as soon beat you with a Bible than a reasoned argument, he chooses the more thoughtful path.
Cunningham stated that he didn't need to pitch Biblical curve balls (though he is a Christian) to win, and he is right because the pro-choice movement bats with a feather at the philosophical plate.
It would be slightly less reprehensible had this crash-test dummy voiced his opinion and organizers of the protest had sritten him with scripture and damned his evil soul. Having listened to the way Cunningham and his staff discussed abortion in a polite and philosophical manner, it's most likely this guy just lost all rationality and succumbed to his own frustration.
Why did someone attempt a hit and run on the center's display (admittedly ugly but effective)? I can't be sure of the motivation, perhaps it was a combination of anger and reulsion. What is clear is that he didn't care to engage in any meaningful dialogue.
Well, on this campus at least, resort to an attack on every issue but the one that brought you into the ruckus: ABORTION. I have not heard one pro-choice person actually discuss abortion in the Kansan, on the sidewalk or in a sign. Usually, pro-choice arguments hover around absurd parallels that treat the right to an abortion like it's a lifestyle choice on the order of whether to be a vegetarian. Unfortunately — and conveniently — for them, this kind of logic ignores the other life involved.
It wouldn't be surprising because to be pro-choice and debating a rational pro-lifer is an exercise in frustration. You expect them to be conservative, anal jerks intent on proscribing biblical interpretations into every nook and cranny of our pluralistic
Most of my friends are pro-choice, and I understand the issue from their perspective, but I have concluded that abortion is a morally unacceptable practice that we as a society must outlaw. People probably don't like abortion and may think it to be wrong, but they won't allow their own instinct or reason get in the way of inconsistent and irresponsible moral arguments that accept the legality of abortion.
society. Then when that doesn't happen,
what's a normal pro-choiceer to do?
Will pro-choicers that read this vilify me, just like the center? I hope not, but I fear many will. Disagree with me, but give me something to disagree with; come up with some philosophical ideas about abortion that don't rely upon any other issue.
Tough, isn't it.

Administration ignored students with displays
Rodger Woods
opinion @ kansan.com
Yet, the University administration must also shoulder the blame for what happened. The fact that the displays would be disturbing and probably lead to confrontation should not have come as a surprise to anyone. If it did, then our University administration is in a much sorrier state than I had believed. The University should have taken action before the displays were put up to reduce the possibility of violent confrontation.
I, in no way, condone the violence that occurred last week. The individuals involved should be held accountable for their actions. If that involves criminal prosecutions, so be it.
last week, the University of Kansas administration took the important step of imposing fines on any person that would dare put an unauthorized flier on a classroom billboard or newspaper box.
We are fortunate indeed to have an administration so keyed on the important issues affecting all KU students. Thankfully, the disturbing trend of having unauthorized fliers posted on classroom billboards has been brought to a halt.
Although the University administration was protecting us from papers taped to lamp posts on Wescoe Beach, one of the earliest episodes to occur
on this campus during the last 10 years was taking place. I'm talking about the anti-abortion displays on Daisy Hill and Strong Hall.
In addition to the mission of providing an education to students, the University has several other important functions. Foremost among these is to provide a free and open forum to discuss any and all issues. Certainly a public university should be on the cutting edge of First Amendment rights. However, free speech on the University campus is not an end to itself. it is merely a necessary part of the education of students.
PETER MAYER
This is not to say that the KU Christian Legal Society should not have been allowed to bring in the displays. Rather, the administration should have used reasonable judgment.
This University is not just a soap box that any group with an agenda can jump on anytime it chooses. Instead, it is an institution of higher learning that uses free speech to further the learning process. Clearly, if the free speech rights of one group interfere with the ability of others to live and learn in a peaceful environment, it is incumbent on
the administration to step in and stop the interference.
First, the displays never should have been placed on Daisy Hill. For better or worse, Daisy Hill is home to many students. The residence halls are, of course, state property. But the students living there have a reasonable expectation to live in a peaceful environment. I can't believe any student signed his or her residence hall contract with the expectation that large displays of a most graphic nature would be placed outside the windows and in front of the dining room.
Third, it is reasonable to have groups bring in displays such as the one we were blessed with last week? At the same time, it wouldn't be difficult to tell from looking at the displays beforehand (someone did look at the displays beforehand, didn't they?) that certain groups on campus would be very offended by their content. Knowing that, perhaps it would have been better to have a discussion with those groups and the group bringing in the displays before they are put up, rather than just letting it all be one big surprise for everyone.
Secondly, there are limits to what may be displayed at the University. Suppose, for instance my new student organization SAP (Students Against Pornography) wanted to set up displays on campus. Is it likely that the administration would allow me to set up my 10-foot still shots from the latest pornographic movies, so that everyone would know exactly what pornography is all about? Of course not.
The University owes the students on Daisy Hill an apology and a commitment to be more diligent when it comes to groups using Daisy Hill for propaganda purposes.
Nobody has a right not to be offended. It's a tough world, and there are difficult, even ugly questions to deal with. However, someone was asleep at the wheel on this one. The University administration must make a greater effort in the future to avoid or defuse confrontational events beforehand, rather than allow the University to receive a black eye and the educational mission to be disrupted.

KU students develop soccer-playing robots
By Julie M. Sachs

Robots playing soccer may sound like something from a science fiction movie, but for two KU students it is a reality.
Isaac Ellis, Overland Park junior, and Michael Turvey, Lawrence sophomore, are working to create soccer-playing robots that may compete against other artificial athletes.

Ellis won $1,000 last year for his idea to design the robots.
Creating the software involves combining characteristics of simulated robotic players in a Japanese-designed computer program.

Ellis said he hoped that he and Turvey's creations would qualify to compete in the RoboCup, the robotic equivalent to soccer's World Cup. The international showdown will be in Japan this summer, Agah said.
Ellis and Turvey are not working with the actual robots but they said that computers have made their experimentations easier.
"Just now has the computer come fast enough and cheap enough to explore artificial intelligence," Ellis said.

Lewd materials removed from Web
Students may be asked to remove offensive materials from sites
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Each year, the University of Kansas Computer Center deals with about three complaints concerning student Web sites that contain offensive materials.
These materials may be so upsetting to a student that the person who maintains the site is asked to remove them.
remove them.
This fall a sophomore at the University posted some material on his Web site that was deemed pornographic by a former student. The student who posted the material said he chose to post the pictures on his Web page because he wanted something to do with his time. The complaint resulted in him deleting the material.
In dening the matte Jason Fizell, May 1998 graduate.
complained about the material. He thought the University should set up some guidelines for students to follow when designing their Web sites.
Jerry Niebaum, director of the academic computing center and assistant vice chancellor for information technology services, said that students have the right to post any information on their Web sites, but the site may not be used to violate any state or federal laws
"We are really sensitive about the First Amendment because we don't want to stand in the way of students expressing themselves in ways they feel are appropriate." Niebium said. "But typically if someone is putting material such as nude pictures on their Web site then they are probably from another source, and usually a copyright applies to those pictures."
Right applause to authorize are in the Web site guidelines are in the process of being written for student use, said Wes Hubert, assistant director of academic computing

The guidelines, called Netiquette, will be available next month both online and in a written brochure form, said Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries. They will provide information and tips for students to be aware of when designing their Web site.
"We don't pro-actively monitor student Web sites," Hubert said. "We investigate complaints, but we don't go looking for material that may be inappropriate."
may beMapped. Greg Smith, treasurer of the Kansas University Campus Internet Association, said that he thought that of the students who had e-mail addresses, only about 25 percent of them maintained a Web site.
"I think the students who post it are only doing it to show off to their friends and those around them," Smith said. "They don't usually show it to outside sources, which is why they aren't usually caught."

Latino comedians protest prejudice
Richard Montoya, Ricardo Salinas and Herbert Siquenza showed scenes from their situation comedy, Culture Clash, which aired on the Fox network in the 1995-96 season. The show was canceled because of American audiences did not accept a Latino theme, the group said.
At a show last night in the Lied Center, the comedy group Culture Clash criticized Hollywood's portrayal of Latinos.
The comedy trio said that viewers rejected the show for reasons that ranged from the program's political content to its use of Spanish.
"African Americans started to appear on TV more only after the '70s. For Latinos, I don't know when this is going to happen," Sallins said. "Especially for us who want to do a more risk-taking show, a comedy with a bit of a message."
The trio also talked about the negative portrayal of the few Latino characters on television. They said that Latinos in current shows often are cast as criminals or service-industry workers.
Culture Clash was the second event in the Lied Center's Culture Countdown season. Upcoming events:
CULTURE CLASH
Ballet Hispanico — Nov. 14
Triangulo — Jan. 24
Javier Pena, Cordoba, Argentina graduate student, attended the show. He said that the group wanted to be on television specifically to reach Americans.
"They want to show our culture and how different we are from the stereotypes that media show," he said.
Culture Clash came to Lawrence as part of the Lied Center's Countdown to the Millennium, which this year highlights Latino culture.
Today at noon, Culture Clash will talk to students and present some short sketches at the lobby in the Kansas Union.
This evening, the Hispanic American Leadership Organization and Culture Clash will share a potluck dinner in celebration of October as Hispanic Heritage Month.
"We don't go to universities just to do our performance and leave. This is the perfect example of what we like to do. We want to meet people and have discussions with them," Salinas said.
The last activity of the group's one-week stop in Lawrence will be the performance of "Radio Mambo — Culture Clash Invases Miami" at 8 p.m. tomorrow in the Lied Center.
The play depicts stories taken from more than 60 interviews that the three members of the troupe conducted in Miami.
Tickets for tomorrow's show are available at University of Kansas box offices. KU-student tickets cost $12.50 and $10. Tickets range from $19 to $25 for the public.

Senate Finance Committee passes funds for First Nations
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
The Student Senate Finance Committee members had to ask themselves last night if they wanted to see a large chunk of money go to the First Nations Student Association.
The association was asking for allocation of $7,160 for its pow-wow April 10. After a long debate, the committee gave the group a thumbs up. Joe Walberg, Finance Committee member, urged to see the number reduced to $5,800.
Walberg said that more than 2,000 students would have to show up to the event this year to make it worthwhile to give the group that much money. He said that last year 1,500 people showed up and it was debatable whether they were KU students.
Ray Pierotti, faculty adviser for FNSA, said he was not surprised by the lengthy committee debate.
"People always want to be heard, even if they don't have anything positive to contribute," he said. "Some of the people said we weren't well organized or well planned out, but we are one of the tightest and best organizations that is run on campus every year."
David Perico, Finance Committee member, said he was upset with the lack of details the group provided.
I'm not opposed to the bill as such, but it's irresponsible for them to come here without documentation of requests they have made for outside funding, no documentation on how much money was going into each area," he said. "We require more documentation from groups that ask for more than $500."
Dion Jones, Finance Committee member, supported the bill.
"One of our biggest problems is inconsistency," he said. "If we gave them the money last year, why in God's name shouldn't we give it to them this year?"
In University Affairs, a bill to allocate $207 to the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union passed. The same bill failed in committee meetings two weeks ago after some committee members thought that the ACLU was a partisan organization. Senate rules and regulations state that funds cannot be used for partisan activities.
Aaron Profitt, vice chairman of the University Affairs Committee, spoke last night against funding the ACLU. He mentioned that on the ACLU's Web page there was a link that provided a scorecard, rating senators and congressmen.
"I'm not saying they're partisan by party," he said. "I'm just saying that they do hold an ideology that tends to line up with partisanship."
The bill passed after several speeches for and against the measure.
Alexis Stevens, executive director of the KU ACLU, thought there were two reasons for the difference in results.
"The whole issue involving campus politics wasn't brought up," she said. "And people were expressing their opinions in a much clearer way."

Radio station sends signals of change
KANU finances stabilize; station casts net for director
By Chad Bettes
Kansas staff writer
Public radio station KANU-FM is in good financial health today. But one year and eight months after a management shakeup, KANU is still without a permanent station director.
KANU, which is based at and financially supported by the University of Kansas, was in financial trouble in the Winter 1997. Howard Hill, station director at the time, transferred out of the station into a different University position, and Janet Campbell, the associate station director, was named interim director. Campbell remains the interim director.
Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration for the University, said it was not uncommon for the University to leave unclassified, professional staff positions vacant until an appropriate search could take place. She also said the station's financial problems had to be worked out first.
"We were giving the station time to get back on its feet." Klinkenberg said.
on its feet. Kinnelberg said.
She said the cautious strategy had worked.
Klinkenberg credited KANU's great product and Campbell's leadership for the station's financial solvency.
Klinkenberg said a national search for a permanent director could start next spring and would probably last for two months. She said Campbell would be encouraged to apply.
Campbell said that she had enjoyed her time at the helm of KANU, and that administration had been supportive of her efforts at the station. She thought the University's reticence to name a permanent director was a vote of confidence in her work.
As interim director, Campbell has led budget-balancing efforts that eliminated the equivalent of six full-time employees. Other outs in operations also were made.
The station's budget for fiscal year 1999 is $1.1 million, down from $1.2 million when Campbell took her current position.
National Public Radio dues take up more than $258,000 of the station's budget.
Revenues from private and public sources are meeting expectations and covering expenses, and ratings for the station are up by more than 13,000 listeners per week from last year. Campbell said.
In January, Campbell will have been with KANU for 20 years. In addition to her duties as interim director, Campbell also continues
"We were giving the station time to get back on its feet."

to direct the station's Audio-Reader department. She said she had tentative plans to apply for the permanent director's position.
Nick Haines, news director of KANU, said he would love to see Campbell named to the post. He said the previous director had been more focused on public relations than in managing the station.
"Janet Campbell is far more interested in the details of running the radio station's operations." Haines said.
He said that it was not a foregone conclusion that she would get the job. Haines said Chancellor Robert Hemenway had contracted with outgoing NPR chief Delano Louis to consult with the University in its national director search.
Haines said he and other KANU staff members would meet with the chancellor this month to share their goals for the station and to report on the status of various departments.
Faculty advise each other,not just students

Students may think they are the only people at universities who are being graded and corrected on their performance.
But University of Kansas faculty doesn't limit its constructive criticism to students. Faculty has a forum in which it offers one

another critiques and advice on its research, as well.
The Hall Center for the Humanities sponsors these faculty seminars, most of which have had the first meeting of the semester. Janet Crow, executive director of the Hall Center, said the seminars were a chance for professors, graduate students and occasionally undergraduate students to discuss the research of a faculty member and provide feedback.
"It's like a chance for faculty to be in class again — or in graduate school again," said Ann Cudd who is a co-organizer of this year's Gender Seminar.
Crow said the process of peer evaluation was important because it increased the possibility that a faculty member could have their work published, which is essential for professors who want to tenure.
"There's a lot of great feedback because there's an opportunity to get feedback right here on campus," said Jonathan Mayhee.

Most of the faculty who volunteer to present their research at seminars are in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, Crow said. But faculty from all parts of campus and other universities have been featured.
"It's always a good idea to be able to share ideas with people who are not from your home university," Crow said.
Crow said anyone who was doing humanistic research was eligible to present papers. It is a chance for faculty to have interdisciplinary discussions, she said.
The featured faculty member distributes a paper ahead of time that tells about their research, and
those who attend the seminar are free to discuss the paper and provide input.
"It's one of the most important things we do," said Roberta Johnson, director of the Hall Center.
She said new faculty had commented that the Hall Center's activities, such as faculty seminars, had been a huge draw to the University.
Most seminars meet three to four times during the semester in the Hall Center.
The University has held the faculty seminars in some form for more than 15 years. There are seven seminars in existence right now, and the Hall Center is developing more.

The Impostors leaves little to like
Review
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
Many directors try their hand at slapstick comedy, and only a handful succeed.
Actor Stanley Tucci, who steps behind the camera for *The Impostors*, is not among the lucky few.
As a tribute to the screwball comedies of the 1930s, The Impostors nails the right mix of kooky characters, muddled plot and
VIRGINIA MAYS
muddied plot and frenzied pace.
The movie's a marsh mallow, fluffy as hell, and that's about it.

world of starving actors. Tucci and Oliver Platt play Arthur and Maurice, two thespians whose perfectionism and pretentiousness has kept them unemployable.
Unwilling to take "real jobs" to make ends meet, the two have moved their routine to the streets, where their craft allows them to wrangle free meals.
One such performance earns them tickets to a production of Hamlet starring the stridently untalented Jeremy Burtum (Alfred Molina). A chance encounter afterward with the bigger star leads to a skirmish, and Arthur and Maurice are soon evading the police.
The first hiding place they find just happens to be the cargo hold of a luxury liner bound for Paris. There, the actors, who routinely take time to trip over luggage and bump into rotund women, fall into the good graces
of the ship's stewardess (Lill Tavlor).
The best of the cameos belongs to Scottish comedian Billy Connolly as a gay tennis pro who becomes smitten with Maurice. Trapping the on-the-lam actor in his cabin, Connolly delivers one of the year's best pick-up lines.
"I once wrestled a man on the steps of the Acropolis when the sun was at its peak, wearing only what God Almighty sent me into the world with," Connolly says. "Can you picture that?"
The presence of so many fine actors in The Impostors, including Campbell Scott, Isabella Rossellini and an uncredited Woody Allen, adds to the enjoyment, but only in a Love Boat sort of way.
Six-String Samurai strums silly tune
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
Is it an homage or a rip-off?
How viewers answer that question will determine whether they enjoy Six-String Samurai.
Six-String Samurai
One could describe Six-String as the independent cinema's answer to Armageddon. Both rely heavily on the fact that peoples' attention spans are shorter than the members list of the Mike Dukakis fan club.
Bursting with pop culture references to everything from The Wizard of Oz to imitations of Waterworld, Six-String isn't content to merely entertain. Rather, director Lance Mungia seems intent on thrilling the audience even if it kills them.
Kansan rating: ** out of *****
Running time: 90 minutes
Rated PG-13 for exaggerated violence and a very scary Kevin Costner fixation
The story kicks off with a bang. In 1957, Russia drops the bomb on the United States and installs a totalitarian government. The last bastion against tyranny is a magical land known as Lost Vegas, ruled by (who else?) Elvis.
After 40 swim'n' years, King Elvis takes the night train to the Big Adios, leaving his throne up for grabs. Rising to the challenge is
Buddy (Jeffrey Falcon), a dark-attired swordman in Buddy Holly glasses who embarks on a cross-country trek to become the next king.
But the Grim Reaper (Stephane Gauger), who looks like Slash from Guns N' Roses, is none too pleased with this turn of events. Determined to keep Buddy from becoming the new king of rock 'n' roll, Death dispatches a small army of renegade bowers, rufflers and surf rockers to thwart his plans and ... oh, never mind.
Falcon's dweeby, hero character suggests a freakish cross between Dirty Harry and Pee-wee Herman, and the scenes that he turns the bad guys into chop suey contain a high level of energy.

Abortion procedure investigated
State board finds Wichita doctor's methods lawful
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — The state board that licenses and regulates physicians has finished its investigation of physician George Tiller and plans no disciplinary action against him because of the abortions he performs.
The Board of Healing Arts disclosed its decision in a letter to Gov. Bill Graves. Graves asked the board to investigate whether Tiller had violated a state law restricting the use of a late-term procedure known as a partial-birth abortion
under Kansas law.
A new state law bans the procedure unless it is necessary to save a woman's life or unless she faces a substantial and irreversible impairment of a major physical or mental function. Under the procedure, a doctor begins a delivery, removes the contents of the skull and crushes the head.
Shortly after the law took effect July 1, Tiller, who operates the Women's Health Care Services Clinic in Wichita, said he was performing partial-birth abortions. However, he said his procedure was different in that he euthanized the fetuses first, and he said he compiled fully with the law.
"We promised to cooperate with the investigation and did so," Tiller said in a statement. "I am pleased with the result, which was
expected.
The letter to Graves dated vester
expected."
The letter to C day, was from Stacy Cook, the board's litigation counsel. In it, Cook said a disciplinary panel recommended that no action be initiated against Tiller.
"Based upon the panel's recommendation, we consider the matter closed." Cooke

Graves: Asked medical panel to investigate doctor.
closed," Cook said in the letter. Larry Buening, the board's executive director, said the panel found no grounds to initiate a disciplinary action. He declined to comment about the details of the case, noting that Kansas law orders the board to keep investigatory material confidential until it files a complaint.
Graves is not disappointed with the result of the board's investigation, said representative Mike Matson.
"He had no preconceived notions," Matson said. "This is the way the system is designed to work, and it worked the way it was supposed to."
Dave Gittrich, executive director of Kansans for Life, was critical of the board's work and said he was not surprised by the decision.
He said the board focused its investigation too narrowly, only on whether Tiller had performed a certain procedure in violation of Kansas law.
Israeli peace efforts undercut by attacks
The Associated Press
HEBRON, West Bank — Undercutting the latest U.S. peace efforts, an assailant yesterday hurled two grenades at Israeli troops guarding a downtown square in the volatile West Bank city of Hebron, injuring 11 soldiers and 11 Palestinians.
The attacker was shot in the leg before he vanished into the Palestinian-controlled area of the city. The Israeli army poured reinforcements into Hebron and imposed a curfew on the area it controls.
Coming at a time when the United States is trying to conclude an agreement on an Israeli troop withdrawal in the West Bank, the attack gave a boost to Israeli claims that the Palestinian Authority is not doing enough to prevent attacks on Israelis.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said he would not give the Palestinians more West Bank land until the they reined in militants.
Troops also set up roadblocks around Hebron, barring Palestinians from leaving or entering the city of 130,000 Palestinians and 450 Jewish settlers.
Tensions in Hebron have been rising since the Aug. 20 killing of a rabbi, apparently by a Palestinian militant.
In a related development, Israel TV's Channel Two said that Palestinian security forces raided a Hamas bomb factory in Hebron on Tuesday, seizing 640 pounds of explosives and bomb-making materials. The report said it was the largest Hamas laboratory uncovered.
Yesterday's violence erupted during Yom Kippur, the holiest day on the Jewish calendar, as Israeli troops enforced a blanket closure on the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
The bloodshed came amid intensive U. efforts to broker an agreement on an Israeli troop pullback from 13 percent of the West Bank. Under a compromise, 3 percent of that land is to be set aside as a nature reserve in which Israel retains control over security.
Earlier this week, President Clinton met with Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat separately and then in a three-way summit. Israeli and U.S. officials were upbeat, saying the land issue had been resolved.
Palestinian negotiators said yesterday that some differences remained. Hassan Abdel Rahman, the Palestinian representative in Washington, said one point of contention was whether Palestinian police could enter the nature reserve.
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright and U.S. envoy Dennis Ross are to return to the region Tuesday to prepare another Mideast summit in Washington in mid-October. Palestinian negotiators said.
The grenade blast injured five soldiers and six officers from the paramilitary border police, as well as 11 Palestinians, the army and Palestinian doctors said. One Israeli was seriously wounded.

rubber bullets, injuring six Palestinians.
The clashes erupted after the funeral of a Hamas activist, Zahran Ibrahim Zahran, who was killed Tuesday when a car rigged with powerful explosives blew up in the village of Beitunia, near Ramallah.
A caller to a Palestinian media center, saying he spoke for Hamas, claimed Israel was behind the bombing. However, Hamas representative Mahmoud Zahar, said the group was still investigating the incident.
NATO finishes plan to strike Serb forces
The Associated Press
UNITED NATIONS — Backed by the United States, Britain yesterday called an emergency meeting of the Security Council to denounce the latest massacre of ethnic Albanians in Kosovo. NATO proceeded with final preparations for air strikes against Serb forces.
"This was not an act of war; it was plain cold murder," British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said at a news conference at the Labor Party's annual conference in Blackpool, England.
He said the meeting would request an urgent report on Kosovo from U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan. Britain takes control of the Security Council presidency today, which gives it the authority to put matters on the acenda.
Informal consultations on Kosovo were scheduled for this afternoon.
Cook warned that NATO air strikes could follow Annan's report, which is a regular 30-day update that was expected late this week or early next week.
Cook also called for a meeting in London tomorrow of the six countries represented in the so-called Contact Group on Yugoslavia: the United States, Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Russia. He said the meeting was for the purpose of finding a way forward on a political settlement for Kosovo.
In Washington, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright told Cook by telephone that she agreed with the convening of a council meeting to discuss the atrocities in Kosovo, State Department representative James Foley said.
Annan is evaluating whether Serbia has complied with last week's Security Council resolution calling for a cease-fire in
Kosovo, a withdrawal of Serbian troops and the start of serious dialogue on real autonomy for the province.
In a possible precursor, Annan issued a statement yesterday condemning the slaughter of 18 men, women and children in the Serbian province on Sunday. Annan added that the reported massacre was particularly shocking since the Yugoslav foreign minister had as recently as
Tues day denied Serb involvement in any atrocities.

The West supports autonomy for Kosovo but not independence
for Kosovo but not independence. At NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium, the alliance proceeded yesterday with preparations for air strikes against Serb forces in Kosovo. The preparations almost are complete, NATO officials said.
Russia and China are opposed to any use of force in Kosovo. China abstained from last week's resolution, claiming that the fighting in Kosovo didn't constitute a threat to international peace and security.
Foley reaffirmed the U.S. view that no council action would be required for NATO to take military action, but that any council statement in support of NATO's determination to act would be welcome.

NBA negotiations fall apart
Continued dispute virtually assures delayed season
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The first delay to the start of the NBA season was virtually assured yesterday when the league announced labor talks will not resume until Oct. 8.
NBA spokesman Chris Brienza confirmed the decision three days after commissioner David Stern,
deputy commissioner Russ Granik, union director Billy Hunter and union president Patrick Ewing met for one hour.
The league wanted to meet for a formal bargaining session as soon as today, but the union said nothing could be scheduled until Oct. 8 because of previous commitments, Granik said.
"I was bowled over to hear that we can't meet for nine days while Rome is burning." Granik told the Philadelphia Daily News.
The regular season is scheduled to begin Nov. 3, and at least three weeks would be needed after an
agreement 18 reached to sign players, make trades and hold abbreviated training camps.
NBA
The league already has announced an indefinite postponement of training camps and has canceled 25 exhibition games. The remainder of the preseason
could be scrapped later this week.
The league, which locked out the players July 1, is seeking a labor system that includes a definitive ceiling on team payrolls, or a hard salary cap. The union insists it will not accept such a deal.
Only one formal bargaining session was held during the summer, and the meeting ended abruptly when the owners walked up upon hearing the players' latest proposal.
League officials have indicated they think the union is stalling in hopes that a victory in the grievance will provide leverage in negotiations.
Penn State to face No.1 Ohio State
The Associated Press
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. — Penn State didn't stop Ohio State last year, and Penn State coach Joe Paterno doesn't expect his seventh-ranked Nittany Lions to stop the No. 1 Buckeye this Saturday, either.
"They're going to move the football, they're going to score points." Paterno said Tuesday. "The only thing we can do is try to make sure the points they score are not easy ones, and that we don't make mistakes when we have the football."
Penn State's defense gave up 565 yards to Ohio State last year but got 307 yards and three touchdowns
from Curtis Enis and Aaron Harris in a 31-27 victory.
Trouble is, Ohio State is on the schedule again — but neither of those rushers is on Penn State's depth chart.
Enis, who ran for 211 yards and a 26-yard touchdown with four minutes left, is with the Chicago Bears. Harris, who added a crucial 51-yard touchdown with tacklers bouncing off his pads in the 1997 game, hasn't been quite the same since tearing a knee ligament a week after his great run.
Their replacement, Cordell Mitchell, is more of a speedster than a durable power back, and he hasn't
been tested against a defense as sold at the Buckeyes'.
And that's just the start of Penn State's offensive worries.
Paterno is still using two quarter-backs, though the system is showing signs of strain. Neither starter Kevin Thompson nor backup Rashard Casey played particularly well in a 20-13 win over Pittsburgh last week as the wide outs dropped ball after ball.
This week, Casey said he's having trouble in the platoon system, and he's disappointed with his playing time.
Penn State hoped to have those questions answered before meeting
a defense that includes Butkus
Award winner Andy Katzenmoyer
and senior defensive backs Damon
Moore and Antoine Winfield.
So with his team struggling to find some continuity a few days before a game against one of the country's best defenses, might Paterno gamble more offensively?
"Yeah, if it works. Got any ideas?" he joked. "We're not gonna do anything different than we've done. We're just going out, leave here Friday afternoon, get out there around 5.530, have dinner, have a snack, to bed, get up in the morning and play the football game. Find out whether we're good enough."
Nebraska back finds flaw in comparison
'Huskers rusher says he's no Barry Sanders
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — They're both built like fireplugs. They have similar running styles. They're from the same Midwestern town.
Nebraska running back back DeAngelo Evans can't escape comparisons to Barry Sanders. But given Sanders' stature as an NFL All-Pro, it's easy to see why Evans is uncomfortable with the link.
"I'm not even in his category," Evans said Tuesday. "He's a Heisman Trophy winner playing in the NFL. I'm just a little podunk sophomore at the University of Nebraska."
At 5-foot-9 and 210 pounds, Evans is barely bigger than the 5-8, 200-pound Sanders. Both have an explosive running style and an array of moves that dazzle fans and befuddle defenders.
Both are from Wichita where Evans eclipsed many of the high school rushing records Sanders set about 10 years earlier.
On Saturday, Evans and the No. 2 Cornhuskers (4-0) take aim at Oklahoma State (2-1), where Sanders won the 1988 Heisman after rushing for 2,628 yards and establishing 34 NCAA records.
For years, Evans has been asked about Sanders. He usually notes that between them, one has accomplished a lot more.
"In high school, I broke a lot of his records, but I've still got a lot of work to do in his category," he said.
It's not fair to project Evans' career based on one game but he sh o w e d Sanders-like ability in last week's 55-7 victory over Washington. Evans had touchdown runs of 60,14 and 19 yards during a 146-ard effort.
N Tinker
"You saw excellent quickness and acceleration. You saw his speed on that long run," Nebraska coach Frank Solich said.
first game in 21 months.
"I didn't really realize how good he was, and he really put on a show," Oklahoma State coach Bob Simmons said.
Evans has been injury-prone in Lincoln, missing the 1997 season with a recurring pelvic muscle injury that required surgery. While rushing for 93 yards in the spring game last April, he sprained an ankle.
Then in fall camp, he tore cartilage in his left knee and missed Nebraska's first three games after arthroscopic surgery. Even now, he has a nagging foot injury that kept him out of practice yesterday.
Solich said Evans probably would miss practice again today so he would be ready for Saturday's game.
Former pitcher Quisenberry dies of tumor at 45
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Dan Quisenberry, a premier reliever with the Kansas City Royals known for his quick wit and submarine pitching delivery, died of a brain tumor at age 45.
Quisenberry, a three-time AllStar who helped the Royals win two American League pennants and the 1985 World Series, underwent surgery in January and June, but doctors were unable to remove all of the malignant tumor.
The Royals confirmed yesterday that Quisenberry had died but would not release details on when or where.
Pale and skinny, "Quiz" never was physically imposing. His awkward-looking pitching release rarely sent balls across the plate at more than 85 mph — nothing compared with the frightening fastballs Rich Gossage unleashed.
An inveterate jokester, his humor frequently was directed at himself. Once, when he came out of a prolonged slump, he said, he had found a delivery in his flaw.
Another time, when he was asked about his contract, he quipped: "It has guarantees until the year 2020 — or until the last Rocky movie is made."
It was easy to see why every major league team ignored the Laverne College graduate in the draft, why he had to drive to the home of a Royals' scout and plead for a chance. In the end, the only one thing kept Quisenberry from being the total bust scouts had predicted: hardly anybody could hit him.
From the day the Royals brought him up near the end of the 1979 season and through the Royals' World Series championship, the sidearming sinkerballer had more saves than any other reliever.
News of his illness jolted Kansas City, and one of the largest crowds of the year turned out May 30 to see him inducted into the team's Hall of Fame. Although terribly weak, Quisenberry stood on the infield with wife Janie and two teen-age
children, and thanked the fans in one of the most emotional moments in the town's history.
"I'm so blessed," he said. "I loved playing those years with those guys in this stadium. I loved playing in front of you folks, great fans. Great city. Great team."
He paused as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.
"This is more than I deserve," Quisenberry said. "This is great. God bless you all. Thanks for the pravers. Thank you very much."
Starting in 1980, when the Royals won their first pennant, ending with the World Series in 1985, Quisenberry led the AL in saves five times. His 45 saves in 1983 was the major league record at the time.
"I lull them into a false sense of security by letting them watch me pitch." he once said
"If overconfidence can cause the Roman Empire to fall, I ought to be able to get a ground ball."
During a career that ended in San Francisco in 1990 after his 24th save
KC
R
Royals
—13th all time — Quisenberry was frequently in the national spotlight. He got the save in the famous "Pine Tar Game" against the New York Yankees after Billy Martin protested that George Brett had pine tar too high up on the bat he'd used to hit a home run.
He was the winning pitcher in the 2-1 victory against St. Louis in the sixth game of the 1985 World Series.
The following year, his reliable sinkerball suddenly began to desert him. Left-handed hitters were especially tough.
He was released in 1988, spent a year with St. Louis and then retired after a brief stay with the San Francisco Giants.
He had remained active in a project he founded that collects food for the hungry and homeless in Kansas City. He also began to write poetry and gave readings at libraries.

Basketball team to court walk-on players
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Men interested in trying out for the University of Kansas basketball team will have the opportunity beginning Oct. 18 in Allen Field House.
Before trying out, candidates must complete paperwork specified by new NCAA guidelines, which include proof of health insurance and a recent physical examination.
The new guidelines would not have kept Chris Martin, Overland Park senior and last year's walk-on addition, from trying out.
"It wouldn't have deterred me," Martin said. "If you go in and you don't expect to
make it. you don't have much to lose."
Tryouts are from 4 to 6 p.m. Oct. 18. Prospective players should come dressed and prepared to work out.
For the first few days, candidates practice as a group. Then the cuts begin, and they continue until the final session, when the remaining players practice with the actual team.
"The last guys practice with the team," Martin said. "It's not given that they're even going to take any of them."
Players trying out often think they may not make the team but have little to lose by trying out.
Steve Myrick, Wichita freshman, said he
NEW NCAA GUIDELINES
Leah candidate must have had a physical examination within the past 12 months. Proof of that examination must be shown and certified by a member of the Kansas athletics department training staff in the Wacoon Student-Athlete Center.
An insurance form must be completed or an insurance card shown to a member of the

A medical paperwork form must then be completed in the Kansas athletics business office, 270 Parrot Athletics Complex .
"I'm not expecting to make it," Myrick said.
"I'm not going in with high expectations." Dug
■ The candidate must go by the compliance office, located next to the business office, and complete proper NCAA forms. All steps must be completed by Oct. 16.
"I'm not going in with high expectations. I figure I'll just give it a shot. I'm here, and I might as well try out."
Martin, the walk-on addition who saw action in eight of Kansas' 16 conference
games, said he thought the walk-ons played an important role.
"The walk-ons are a good thing for the school and the program," Martin said. "The students have a representative who may not be the most athletic, but we're out there."
Making the team may be even more difficult this year. The Jayhawks already have 15 players on the roster. Last year they only had 14.
"I think this year will be especially tough." Martin said. "We have more guys than last year plus some really good players coming in."
Coaches do not have to pick any walk-ons, and there are no guarantees that any walk-ons will earn a roster on the team.
Volleyball to face Nebraska
'Hawks not afraid of No.3'Huskers
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The time has come for the Kansas volleyball team to demonstrate the abundance of its potential.
This weekend, the 10-3 Jayhawks face two Big 12 Conference rivals who are both in the Top 25.
No. 3 Nebraska will battle the Jayhawks at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at Allen Field House, marking the first ranked opponent Kansas has faced this season.
At 7:30 p.m. Saturday in the field house, No.12 Colorado will take the court against the Jayhawks, rounding out the toughest weekend they have had in 1998.
But the Jayhawks aren't intimidated. Setter Laura Rohde said they were looking forward to the challenge.
"We usually play our best games against those teams," Rohde said. "We like the challenge, and we kind of rise to their level. We are definitely excited for those matches."
That kind of excitement may be just what Kansas needs. The Jayhawks have attributed most of their success this season to their newfound enthusiasm and intensity.
Middle blocker Amanda Reves said they had raised their expectations as they surpassed their goals — one of which was finishing in the middle of the pack in the Big 12.
"Our team chemistry on the court has helped us, and we know what it's going to take to fix the problems in the past," Reves said.
The Jayhawks are coming off a 3-1 loss to Kansas State. Rohde said the loss left the team with mixed emotions because it had stayed with the Wildcats despite playing badly.
"It was the first time we have played like that, when no one was having a good game, but we still managed to hang in there." Rohde said.
Last season, Nebraska finished 27-7 overall and 16-4 against Big 12 opponents. The Cornhuskers topped off their season with their third consecutive Final Four appearance before losing to Long Beach State 3-0 in the semifinals.
Although that may have been of some consolation last weekend, Rohde said that the Jayhawks would have to learn from their mistakes and play better tomorrow.
In this case, it's Nebraska — a team that only has fallen to the Jayhawks once in school history, compiling a 59-1 record against them.
"We just need to take care of what's on our side of the net," Rohde said. "It doesn't matter who we're playing."
Colorado's statistics from last season look similar to Nebraska's final numbers. The Buffalooes finished 22-9 overall and 16-4 in the Big 12. Their season ended in a NCAA Tournament appearance — their seventh consecutive run at the national title.
This season, the undefeated Cornhuskers have won 11 games, including victories against No. 7 Stanford, No. 9 Florida, No. 14 Loyola Marymount and No. 17 San Diego.

I call this column the "Harley has two tests, three papers and a short story due by next Monday, not to mention a trip to Indiana this weekend, a car that's about to break and he is about to lose what little mind he has left he's so stressed out" column. So with this taken into account, read and enjoy ...
As much as Chicago's professional sports team's make me want to vomit, I have to give it up for the Cubbies.
Although I'm a life long Mets fan (reason: Mookie Wilson), the Cubs are a wonderful team to root for. Sosa's great. Grace is steady. Gaetti's old. And Rod Beck has baseball's biggest mullet haircut since Mitch Williams retired. What's not to like?

when the words wild card and interleague come up, it's time to get a life.
Although they seemed gimmicky at first, the wild card and interleague play have proven to be runaway, smash successes. They pumped life into a dying sport by increasing fan interest during the middle of the season.
As for basketball, the ongoing NBA lockout has resulted in the cancellation of 25 preseason games.
Way to go, guys!
Kudos to Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams.
Sure, I've given him a tough time in the past, but I have nothing but praise for the early recruiting class Coach Roy has assembled.
After missing out on several big names last season, Williams made sure that didn't happen again. Andrew Gooden and Nick Collison should give the Jayhawks a great front line well into the next century.
Kansas football media guide page 121:
"Last year's Super Bowl match-up featured two former Jayhawks in prominent roles. Dana Stubblefield and Gilbert Brown were teammates at KU and were major performers along the defensive fronts for San Francisco and Green Bay." Right
The last time I checked, San Francisco wasn't anywhere close to last year's Super Bowl. Call me senile, but I could have sworn it was the Broncos and the Packers.
Pick of the Week
Final score: Kansas Athletic Department 1. Accuracy 0.
LSU 31. Georgia 27.
This should be the week's most entertaining match-up. A good ol' fashion SEC battle between the Tigers and the Bulldogs. Look for a lot of points, big plays and a close game. Georgia plays tough, but the Tigers take it in the Bayou.

Freshman's goals spark wins
Forward scores four times and earns Big 12 honors

What a difference three days can make. Before last weekend's inaugural Kansas Tournament, freshman forward Lindsay Kennedy led the team in shots but still was looking for her first collegiate goal.
are proud of Lindsay. For a first-year player to impact our program like this is excellent."
She didn't have to wait long. She scored twice in a 3-minute span during the first half of Friday's match against Central Oklahoma. Kennedy's goals led the Jayhawks to a 4-1 victory.
Sunday, Kennedy helped cap the tournament for Kansas when she scored twice in the final 10 minutes of the Jayhawks' 5-0 victory against Western Illinois.
Kennedy's performance last weekend earned her a spot on the all-tournament team. The
previous week, she was named to the Sheraton Four Seasons Tournament team.
Kennedy also became the second Jay hawk soccer player to earn Big 12 Conference Player of the Week honors. Sophomore Colleen Colvin was the first to earn the honor for the week of Nov. 3, 1997.
"it's fantastic for our program," Kansas coach Dan Magner said. "Last year, we were proud of Colleen, and this year we
Kennedy's two goals Friday established a Kansas record for the two fastest goals by one player. By the weekend's end, she was the team leader in goals (4) and and the leader in the total number of assists and goals (8).
"I just had to find my niche and get used to the team," Kennedy said. "Hopefully, I can keep scoring and we can keep winning."
Magner said he hoped Kennedy's performance last weekend was a sign of things to come.
"We are entering conference, play with confidence as a team, and certainly Lindsay should feel confident in her ability to score," he said. Magner said Kennedy had adjusted well to the demands of being a student-athlete. "It's hard for freshmen because they are adjusting."
many factors outside of soccer," he said. "Academic life, social life, living in dorms and being away from home are all things that can impact a first-year student. Lindsey has shown she can handle herself well in that environment as well as the field."
Kennedy will try to add to her goal-scoring total 3 p.m. Friday when the Jawhacks play the No. 23 Baylor Bears. The venue of the match likely will change because of a rain-soaked Super Target Field.

Wait-staff jobs coveted by students
Bv Aaron Fulk
Kansan correspondent
Waiting tables is probably one of the best jobs for a full-time student in Lawrence, if you can find one.
"I have asked and applied at many different restaurants around town and am told that their schedules are full, and they only hire people with experience," said Adrian Gallagher, Denver sophomore.
Some restaurants start accepting applications for wait-staff positions during the summer.
Dos Hombres, 815 New Hampshire St., receives applications as early as May for the following school year, said R. J. Samuels, Dos Hombres manager. Michelle Gregg, manager of Applebee's Neighborhood Grill & Bar, 2520 Iowa St., and Linda Edman, manager of Mass. St. Dell, 941 Massachusetts St., said applications started arriving near the end of July, a month before classes began.

Erin Fischer, Applebee's waitress and Wichita senior, said students worked hard to keep these jobs because of the benefits.
"We only take employees as we need them." Sahle said.
Parkway, usually loses only its graduating employees, which leaves few spots open for new employees, said Bill Sehle. Sports Page Brewery manager
While paychecks may be the drawing point for some, waiting tables offers other advantages. Monica Hein, Sports Page Brewery waitress and Newton freshman, said she enjoyed meeting new people.
"The money is the best part," she said.
"I enjoy working with different people and interacting with the public and my customers," she said.
"The best part of my job is meeting people," she said.

Applebee's serves up Hawk Talk
By Brandon Stinnett
Kansan correspondent
Dinner is not the only thing served to guests at Applebee's Neighborhood Grill and Bar on Monday nights. Hawk Talk, a weekly radio sports program, is broadcasted 6-7 p.m. live from the restaurant on Lawrence based 105.9 FM the Lazer.
Members of the KU pep play before and after the show, led by Jayhawks football announcer Bob Davis. Kansas football coach Terry Allen appears on Hawk Talk each week during football season, and basketball coach Roy Williams is on during basketball season to answer questions from callers across the state.
Hawk Talk has been on the air for 15 years. The show was originally broadcast from from the Lazer radio station studio, but moved to Applebee's five years ago, said Bob Newton, station manager for the Lazer.
Davis has been the show's host since the beginning.
"It's an opportunity for people all over the state to talk to Coach Allen and Coach Williams." Davis said.
Lawrence Applebee's general manager Rex Wright said the restaurant usually

this up about thirty minutes before the programs airs each week. Wright said he thought Hawk Talk was a good way for people in Lawrence to voice their opinions about Kansas athletics.
"It gives people the chance to get involved with the University," he said. "A lot of older alumni like to come. It makes them feel more a part of things."
Hostess trainer and Overland Park senior Adrienne Lentow often works during Hawk Talk. Lentow said she liked the show because it gave people a chance to meet Allen and Williams in person.
"I think it's cool," she said. "I like the coaches being here. It gives people the chance to see coaches up close."
Lawrence residents Steve and Susan Archer were at Applebee's during Hawk Talk the Monday following Kansas' loss to Missouri. Steve said he thought broadcasting the show in a public place, such as Applebee's, helped keep the public's interest high.
"I think it's a good way to bring the football team closer to the community," he said.
Susan said she thought Hawk Talk helped people get involved in the Jayhawks' quest to build a football team to compete for the Big 12 championship.
"It makes people feel like they're part of the rebuilding progress," she said.
Allen said he viewed Hawk Talk as a time for people to voice their concerns and observations about Kansas football and basketball programs.
"It's an opportunity for fans to field questions and get replies from the coaches," said Allen. "It's a great time."
Occasionally, former KU football or basketball players will make guest appearances on the show, but for the most part, either Allen or Williams is on every week. Davis said he thought the coaches liked to hear what the public had to say about their teams.
"I think they enjoy the opportunity to get the feedback and reply to fans' questions," he said. "I don't think they even mind a little criticism."

Pizza is often cure for cravings
Kansan correspondent
By Becky Lake
Every college student has been there. Whether students are having an afternoon study session or crashing in the early hours of the morning from a night on the town, many choose pizza as their food of choice.
"It's

quick, easy and good," said Kim Giacob,
Amherst. Mass., freshman.
Lawrence has many options for pizza fans, ranging from sit-down restaurants to delivery-based franchises. The low prices, variety and widespread delivery area make it a popular choice among many students and local residents.
Nicole Stevens, Burke, Va., freshman, said she appreciated all the different choices Lawrence offered
Nicole Stevens, Burke, Va., fresh-
“There’s a good variety here in Lawrence and most places deliver at all hours” she said.
Megan Pope, Wichita junior, said she thought one of the favorites of KU students and Lawrence residents was Papa Keno's Pizzeria. 1035 Massachusetts St. Pope said she would choose Keno's above all her pizza places.
Papa Keno's, offers a wide selection of toppings and several specialty pizzas. Annie Vogel, Cleveland,
Ohio, sophomore, said that besides the unique variety of choices at Papa Keno's, its location also made it a desirable place to dine.
"Not only is the food great, but I really like the atmosphere of being on Mass. Street," she said.
Rudy's Pizzeria, 704 Massachusetts St., has gourmet-style pizza, a variety of toppings and bakes the pizzas fresh every day, said Sharon Hesse, Rudy's employee.
"We make our own dough, shred our own cheese and use fresh veggies," Hesse said.
Brooks Newton, Lawrence resident, said Rudy's homemade style made a bigger impression on him than the pizza franchises.
"You're not coming to a chain," he said. "You feel like you're coming to a place where people have invested themselves."
Lawrence also has pizza restaurant chains that focus on delivery orders to the late-night college community. Papa John's employee Denny Anderson said that the majority of pizza sales were night delivery orders.
Josh Trask, Rochester, N.Y., sophomore, is a resident assistant at McColum Hall who sometimes works late hours. Trask said that he considered delivery a great asset for a pizza establishment.

"When you're working the desk and it gets to be like two in the morning, you go for delivery — and the cheapest you can find," he said.
Some chains have specials to help ease the strain on students' pocketbooks. Leavenham freshman Shawn Agnew is a fan of Papa John's specials.
"Papa John's late-night special is the way to go," he said. "They sell one large, one-topping pizza for $6.99 after 9 p.m."

but he has a favorite.
"It definitely depends on the situation," said Avi Mor, Wilmette, III, sophomore. "It just depends if I just want to sit down and relax or keep having a good time."
"I always end up going to Perkins," Hund said. "Because everyone knows that's where you go when the bars
Only three restaurants in Lawrence are open 24 hours: Jesters', Village Inn and Perkins.
"When I party all night, I go to Jesters,'" Mor said. "But Perkins is quieter, which is
quieter, which is also an advantage."
So an advantage.
These aren't the only options. There are always such fast food standbys like Taco Bell. Also, there are the gas station convenience stores, and you always can check your freezer. But none of these places has nearly as much friendliness or atmosphere
BROOKS
as the 24-hour restaurant.
No Joke: Jesters' is in it for fun
Jesters,' 1105 Massachusetts St., has undergone the most changes in the last year. With new management, Jesters' underwent a substantial remodeling and menu change. Among the changes made was the canceling of the 2 a.m. breakfast buffet, a late night standby for some KU students.
"The fact of the matter is that it just
wasted a lot of food," said Nathan Ward, Topeka senior and Jesters' late-night manager.
Ward said that the changes were made to better serve Jesters' target market of KU students.
Jesters' biggest 24-hour competitors are Perkins and Village Inn. "It's very laid back at Perkins," Hund said.
Village Inn and Perkins
Saying Perkins is laid back is an understatement. The booths at Perkins are of Lay Z-Boy comfort, and the atmosphere and lighting reminds you more of your grandmother's dining room than a restaurant. But despite the mellow atmosphere, Perkins rolls in big bucks in the late shifts.
Lawrence resident Bree Diedwardo manages the late-night shift at Perkins, 1711 W.23rd St.
"I would say one-third of our business is done during the late shift." he said.
Perhaps one of the reasons that Perkins is so successful is the quality of its food.
"Perkins definitely has the best food," Mor said.
Hund agreed.
"Perkins is the only place that can satisfy my late night cravings for biscuits and gravy."Hund said.
Similar to Perkins is Village Inn, 821
Iowa St.
Village Inn prides itself on atmosphere.
"There's always tons of college students in here studying," said Laura Dalley, late-night manager and Lawrence resident. "Except for Fridays and Saturdays, we don't have a time limit for people who want to come in and study."
Help Wanted
The largest problem facing the 24-hour restaurants is finding employees willing to work late-night shifts.
"It's extremely hard finding people to work the graveyard shifts," said Dalev.
The lack of help has made the time spent dining longer. The next time your patience is tested, remember the incredible sacrifices the employees have to make to fill this shift. Or, ask yourself this question: Would I want to be working right now?
"it's so difficult to find people to work just because they have to undergo a total lifestyle change," Diedwardo said. "Whether it's learning to sleep during the day or to become a night person, it's hard."
But no matter how hard the process becomes, there will always be a need for 24-hour restaurants.
Area restaurants offer vegetarian friendly menus
By Nathan Willis
Kansan correspondent
Lawrence may look as if it would be unfriendly to non-meat eaters because it has few exclusively-vegetarian restaurants, but looks can be deceiving.
Actually, the dearth of all-vegetarian restaurants is made up for by an array of restaurants that include a wide selection of vegetarian items on their menus.
For those new to Lawrence or vegetarianism, when veteran vegetarians named their favorite places to go, a few names kept popping up.
One was The Glass Onion, 624 W 12th St. above Yello Sub. Nicholas Beck, manager, said one of the reasons for its popularity was because it was probably the closest thing one would find to a restaurant meant specifically for vegetarians.
there are only one or two items on the menu that
"There are only one or two come with meat," he said that meat could be added to other dishes on the menu. "Probably about 80 percent of what we serve is vegetarian."
Beck also said about 10 percent of the menu was vegan. Vegans do not eat any animal products, including milk and eggs.
A little farther from Mount Oread than The Glass Onion is The Jerusalem Cafe, 1021 Mass. St.
Ziad Atout, assistant manager of the restaurant, said the unique food was probably what gave it its popularity.

"Our food is more healthy, less oily than other vegetarian food," he said of the cafe's Middle-Eastern food. "It also has many proteins. We use beans, a lot of beans, for such things as lentil soup and hummus."
The vegetarian combination platter, which includes such things as hummus, chick peas, falafel and grape leaves stuffed with spiced rice, is a customer favorite. Atout said.
Also specializing in foreign cuisine is LuLu's Noodle Shop and Satay Bar, 803 Massachusetts St., which celebrated its first anniversary Sept. 16.
Lisa Mayakula, owner of LuLu's, said the restaurant was unique.
"Things have gone really well so far," she said. "My father is Thai, so they are all family recipes, mostly from my day. Everything we cook here we prepare from scratch."
Mayakula said Thai food was similar to other Oriental food, but generally spicier, lighter and less greasy. She estimated that around half the food LUuLu's served was vegetarian, and vegan food also could be requested.
While there are many reasons for becoming a vegetarian, Lewis said that she, like many people, did so mostly for moral reasons.
"I just don't believe in eating animals," she said, noting that she also received some nutritional benefits from her decision.
Beck, who has worked at The Glass Onion for five years, said that there was an increasing vegetarian trend.
"I would say, yeah, more people are getting turned on to vegetarianism, especially in the last year," he said. "Unless you're a dyed-in-the-wool beef eater, you're not going to miss the meat in most dishes."

Stores cater to studying needs
Students seek new settings to hit the books

Kansan correspondent
Bottomless drinks, food and relaxed atmospheres lure students from libraries and homes to study at restaurants and coffee shops — and the managements do not mind at all.
The Java Break, 17 E. 7th St., is no exception.
"It's probably 95 percent students in here at night," Cynthia Davis, employee, said. "We have five or six regulars here during the day, but I see them all the time studying. It's just to get you out of the house."
"Students can study anytime of the day and night, have a cup of coffee, smoke a cigarette, feel comfortable with the environment," Ghosheh said.
Waddah Ghosheh, Perkins manager, said he could almost always find someone with a book open at his location, which is open 24-hours.
Several locations in Lawrence welcome students to use their business for studying and try to accommodate them as much as possible.
The Java Break also provides a variety of resources to their studious visitors.
"We have two back rooms, lots of tables inside and outside, coffee to keep you awake, a small used book collection, a dictionary, a newsstand, couches, two lazy chairs and two computers for use," Davis said.
While use of the computers requires a fee, $6 an hour or 10 cents a minute, Davis said the other resources were available for no charge.
Border's Books & Music Cafe, 700 New Hampshire St., is another location offering resources to students. Casey Chorice, Border's employee, said that in addition to the books for sale, the bookstore also provided a reference section.
"I think that's why a lot of people study here is because there's so much available," Chorice said. "You're allowed to bring the reference books back to the cafe."
But references are not the only benefits students find studying off-campus.
"I'm pretty fond of the coffee shops
downtown," Josh Cronemeyer, Lawrence junior, said. "If I study at home, I get nothing done. If I study at the library, I fall asleep. These places have a good balance. There's just enough noise to keep me awake."
Jessica Allin, Leavenworth junior, said it was easier for her to concentrate with the quiet background noise as well. But she admitted that was not the only thing she enjoyed about studying off-campus.
"When you have a group of friends to go study, you can socialize and get your studying done at the same time," she said. "It's kind of neat."
While many locations welcome students, managers and employees agree that customers come first. Several restaurants have policies
regarding this situation.
"We have a study-time-limited policy of one hour without a meal and two hours with a meal," Ghosheh said. "We enforce that when necessary. If I don't need the space, I won't enforce it. If I have the room, you can sit there all day. We have to be considerate to our customers."
The Java Break, like Perkins,
posts a study policy in their store.
"The only policy that we have is one drink per hour," Davis said. "Also, if there's a lot of people and not a lot of space, we ask people to combine tables."
In addition to being considerate of the time factor, Allin said she felt obligated to purchase something in exchange for using a business's space.
"I always get something, even if it's just a drink," she said.
Chorice said there was no pressure for students to buy anything while studying.
"The majority of the students purchase at least something from the cafe," she said. "We don't push it for them to buy anything; most just do."
While the off campus studying option works well for many students, Ghosheh said the business benefited as well.
Cronemeyer also said the off-campus setting helped him keep his mind focused on his studies.
"People get used to studying here, so when they're not studying, they will still come here," he said.
"When I'm at home, I've got my hobbies right next to me and I have a tendency to read things I don't need to read for school and do things I enjoy," he said. "Plus I can't make coffee anyway."
Grabbing a cup of java in Lawrence
By Doua Pacey
Kansan correspondent
One place to indulge in a cup of coffee is Java Break, at Seventh and Massachusetts streets. The Java Break is open 24 hours and recently
installed two Macintosh computers. This is Lawrence's only coffee shop that offers computer access to its patrons.
Lawrence may not have an espresso cart on every street corner like the caffeine fiends of Seattle or even the posh, sophisticated coffee shops one might expect to find in New York; but Lawrence's caffeine scene has a style distinctly its own.
A constant at The Java Break is its mixed clientele, said owner Derek Hogan.
"Sometimes I'll look around and there will be a table of 40-somethings, a table with skin heads, young couples, students and college professors," he said.
Andrew Stowers, The Java Break employee, said the reason there was such a diverse clientele was
because of The Java Break's laidback atmosphere.
Another downtown coffee shop is Java Dive, 10 E. Ninth St. Java Dive draws a large amount of business professionals, and it is a non-smoking cafe, said Adam Mursmann, Java Dive employee.
"Almost anyone can come in here and feel comfortable," said Stowers.
James Neighbor, Java Dive employee, said that Java Dive was not more conservative than other coffee shops, but it did have more of a study crowd and was a little quieter.
La Prima Tazza, 638 Mass. St., also serves caffeine addicts. It's a good place to watch people as well as drink coffee, said Amy Giedratis, La Prima Tazza employee.
"In the mornings, we get a lot of business people from Mercantile Office Towers," he said. "In the afternoons, it's mainly students, but there are other people here, too."
"I could do that all day when I'm working here," she said. "People

"Depending on what time you're there, you can see some interesting people walk by," she said.
Border's Cafe offers something that other coffee shops in Lawrence do not. Because of its location
Meg Larson-Heald, Lindsborg senior, agreed.
inside Border's Books and Music, New Hampshire and Seventh streets, customers are allowed to browse through books while sipping their lattes.
"The best thing about this is that people can take their books into the cafe and read some of it before buying them," said Larry Brinkman, Border's employee. "It's like a listening station but for books."
The Bourgeois Pig, 6 E. Ninth St,
is next to Java Dive and has a full
selection of coffee and a bar.
"This is a pretty eclectic coffee shop," said manager Brian Blankenship. "We get a lot of graduate, foreign students and professionals here."
But Lawrence seems to be missing something that the rest of the country has in abundance: Starbucks. Most of Lawrence's coffee-shop employees said that a Starbucks would not fare well here because the coffee market is already saturated, and that the people of Lawrence would rather support locally owned businesses and not big companies.

Delivery places offer students options for late-night cravings
By Staci Hauschild Kansan correspondent
It's just a phone call away. With tantalizing two-for-one specials and catchy radio jingles, fast-food delivery places appeal to many students living in the University of Kansas residence halls. Whether it be pizza, Mexican food or sub sandwiches, delivery allows residents to have their lunch, dinner or late-night snacks after one phone call.
Angie Ruble, Great Bend freshman, works security at Oliver Hall on the weekends and said that most pizza deliveries arrived between midnight and 2 a.m.
"Everyone is coming back from parties and the bars," she said. "We have delivery people coming in every 30 to 45 minutes. Papa John's comes the most and then Pizza Shuttle, and sometimes the same delivery guy comes three or four times."
Tony Monley, Overland Park freshman, is a male resident at Oliver Hall who orders out several times a weekend.
men than women in Oliver ordered out for late-night snacks on the weekend.
Ruble said she thought more
"Usually, I call Thursday, Friday and Saturday night at one in the morning," he said. "For some odd reason, that is when I'm the hungriest."
While others are satisfying postparty hunger, students like Jenn Engle, Topeka junior, call for delivery during their meal times.
"I order out about seven times per week because the food downstairs is not open when I'm hungry." she said.
Ordering out on a regular basis can get expensive, so Engle offered students a suggestion.
"I order from pizza places because they are cheap, and I can eat a large pizza for a couple of days," she said. "I call with my friend Gretchan, and we take
Monley agreed that pizza was a delivery favorite.
"The pizza from Gumby's virtually melts in my mouth," he said.
"It's good and it's five bucks for a large."
turns paving."
While some residents may have favorite fast-food delivery establishments on speed dial, Alison Hagman, Buhier sophomore, said she tried to resist picking up the phone to satisfy late-night cravings.
"Ordering out can get expensive, and it's usually not very healthy for you," she said.
Megan Spaulding, Olathe sophomore, said it was better to go some place where you knew someone because they could give you free food.
"When you call on the phone you can't just say 'give me free food,' but if you go into a place and you know someone they can hook you up with something," she said.

From cafes to gourmet restaurants, there are numerous dining experiences in Lawrence. However, many University of Kansas students spend their mealtimes in the residence hall dining areas on campus.
One place to eat on campus is Mrs. E's, in Lewis Hall on Daisy Hill.
Mrs. E's gives students several selections, such as pasta, soup, sandwiches and dessert items.
Despite the seemingly wide variety of choices, Gillian Boudier, Windsor, England, junior, said that Mrs. E's needed to expand a little more, and she was somewhat dissatisfied with the selections offered.
"At the beginning of the term, the food was pretty good, but now there isn't enough variety, and there's too much fried food," she said.
RESIDENCE HALL DINING
Chris Annexe, Long Island, N.Y. sophomore, agreed.
"I don't think it's as good as it was last year," he said. "They don't give us as much selection, and you can only go in once each mealtime."
■ Mrs. E's
■ Oliver Hall
■ Gertrude Sellards Pearson-
Corbin Hall
Perhaps the best explanation for such reactions is the fact that Daisy Hill residents simply have become used to the food at Mrs. E's. Students who do not normally eat at Mrs. E's boast of its superiority and have said that its food selection was better than other dining areas.
"As my friend visited from K-State this past weekend, we ate in the cafeteria, and she was very impressed by the variety of food and the atmosphere," said Shiloh Blanton, Overland Park freshman. "She said that it was much better than other cafeterias he had eaten at."
Mrs. E's was named after Lenoir Ekdahl, a past director of food services, who retired in 1989.
Matt Hapke, Overland Park freshman, said that he ate most of his meals in Oliver Hall, which is constructed much like Mrs. E's but on a smaller scale. Hapke said the other residence dining areas did not compare with it.

Restaurants dish out traditional alumni favorites
Eateries draw fans from past
By Paula Spreitzer
Kansan correspondent
Despite the opening of many new restaurants around Lawrence in the past few years, some older establishments continue to be favorites among students and alumni.
Joe's Bakery has served several generations of KU students for 46 years.
The bakery has become so college-oriented that it stays open according to the KU school-year calendar. When the University of Kansas closes for seasonal breaks, so does the bakery.
"The students have been very loyal through the years," said Melody Smith, who has managed the bakery since 1980 with her husband Ralph.
Ralph's father Joe started the business in 1952.
Dan Barker, Hutchinson freshman, said Joe's Bakery was a family tradition.
"My dad went to KU, and he would time it just right to get to
Karen Zajkowski, 1993 alumna, said she used to go to Joe's with her friends weekly.
Joe's in time for warm glazed doughnuts," he said.
"We would go on walks and then miraculously end up at Joe's for sugar cookies and bear claws," she said.
Yello Sub is also a perennial favorite among students. Open since 1985, Yello Sub has two locations—one at 624 W. 12th St., and one at 1814 W. 23rd St.
Yello Sub manager Don Keen said the store on 12th Street was convenient for students because it was just down the street from
"Students are hip for the campus location," he said. "Upstairs, we have a vegetarian restaurant. There's also a deck where students can sit outside and watch people walking by below."
the Kansas Union.
Unlike the typical sub shop, Yello Sub makes their bread from scratch and offers both hot and cold subs, Keen said.
"The taste of the subs is unique—far better than your typical Blimpie Mr.-Goodcents-Subway sandwich. Plus, Yello Sub serves them hot," said John Felski. 1996 alumnus.
Felski said he goes to Yello Sul
every couple of weeks to eat his favorite sandwich, the foot-long Beefeater.
Comparatively new on the Lawrence restaurant scene is Free State Brewery, Already. Free State is joining the ranks of Joe's and Yello Sub as a mainstay establishment in Lawrence.
Although the restaurant was opened only 10 years ago, it attracts large crowds causing waits as long as 45 minutes on the busiest nights, Free State manager Debbie Fey said.
Free State has a diverse menu that includes hamburgers, pastas and vegetarian dishes. Fey
said the restaurant's homebrewed beer was also a reason customers frequented the restaurant.
"We want people to have a good time, to enjoy the food and the beer." she said.
Teri Evans, 1996 alumna, was a regular at Free State while in college and still returns.
"It's just a cool place to hang out," she said. "You'd see the same people there a lot. It' s grown a lot in popularity in the past few years, but it's still the same Free State—awesome food and great beer. Whenever we make it to town, we always go."
Food. satellite television brings sports fans to Henry T's
By Aaron J. Senser
Kansan correspondent
In a market with brawny competition, Henry T's, a sports restaurant on West Sixth Street, definitely has found its niche in Lawrence.
Henry T's Bar & Grill, 3520 W. 6th St., opened seven years ago after BC's, another sports restaurant, closed. Sean Gerrity, Henry T's co-owner and manager, said the establishment got its name from the small family grave plot of Henry T. Davis behind the restaurant
The success of his restaurant was a matter of good timing, Gerrity said.
"BC's had the idea, but just didn't have the concept right." Gerrity said. "They had two to three TV's and no satellite. It was before the time when satellite games and regional feeds were a big deal."
Henry T's has five satellites, wait manager Sara Kapfer said. Customers can watch up to seven different games at a time.
Gerrity said most establishments in Lawrence did not have the same satellite viewing capabilities as Henry T's.
Gerrity said that although the Jayhawks drew big crowds, fans from all over came to watch their respective teams.
"Other owners don't even handle the satellites," he said. "If you know of a game being fed on satellite, chances are I can find it. People come here because not all games are televised."
"I would definitely say that we have several different crowds of regular customers," he said. "We have a Buckeye crowd, an Iowa Hawkeye crowd, and there are about eight people who come to watch all of the Northwestern games."
Jeff Korey, Highland Park, Ill., freshman agreed.
"Being on this side of the Midwest, the chances to see Ohio State on regular television are few and far between," he said.
"For the four years I've been at KU, the Columbus crew and I have been going to T's to take in the games and eat some wings."
"It's really hard to find a place where you can just watch a game in relative peace. That's why I usually go there to watch my Cubbies play," he said.
Gerrity moved to Overland Park from Los Angeles with his parents before starting school at the University of Kansas. He graduated with a degree in British history and postgraduate degrees in urban planning,

environmental studies and environmental history. Gerrity said he stayed in Lawrence because he was comfortable.
There is a different feel to Lawrence, a closeness," he said. "My impression of cities across the Mason-Dixon line is that you feel anonymous. Lawrence is certainly more inviting."
Henry T's is not just for Lawrence. Butch Ball, Atchison resident, said he visited Henry T' s whenever he had the chance.
"Besides the great buffalo strips, Henry T's is the greatest place to catch the 6:30 games," he said. "My son lives right around the corner, so whenever we visit we stop in."
Gerrity said while sports did draw people in, it was not the main attraction.
"Actually, most of our business doesn't come from sports. The majority of our business comes from our food," he said. "Henry T's is more of a neighborhood place than a student hangout, but our daily specials bring in the students."
"I would say that Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturday nights are our busiest."
"I usually hit T's on Wednesday nights because of the quarter wing special. I like the atmosphere and quick service too," he said.
Todd Newstead, St. Louis sophomore, said he came for the food specials.
Neil Sniffen, Grants Pass, Ore., sophomore, said Monday's two-for-one burger deal was his favorite.

Fine dining variety offered in Lawrence
By Matthew Hansen Kansan correspondent
For students looking for a break from a steady diet of cafeteria food, a place to entertain or a restaurant to suggest when parents come to town, Lawrence offers a variety of high-quality dining. Ethnic cuisine including Italian, Mexican, and Mediterranean dishes are available, as well as the traditional fine-dining experience.
Pachamama's and Milton's are two options.
Dana Duellman, owner of Pachamama's, said the restaurant's greatest asset was its diversity.
"We're the only restaurant in Lawrence that changes their menu every month," she said. "We also serve a worldly cuisine that allows our customers to order almost anything they want."
Pachamama's, 2161 Quail Creek Drive, is centered around a rain-forest theme, and view of the Alvamar Golf Course and a landscaped patio are also available to patrons. Despite those luxuries, Duellman said that Pachamama's prices were reasonable.
"A person can come here and eat for as little as $10 or as much as $25," she said. "Our lunch is especially affordable, in line with the prices at Chill's or Applebee's."
Milton's, 920 Mass. St., serves breakfast, lunch and dinner and offers a variety of entrees including Mediterranean, southwestern and Asian dishes. Specials include seafood, lamb, a variety of pastas and steak. Head chef James Kelly said the restaurant offered customers a pleasant dining experience.
"Our food is totally unique," he said. "When you combine the great food with the prices and the atmosphere, you have a great place to come to eat and enjoy yourself."
Paisano's Ristorante and Teller's are Lawrence establishments catering to those in the mood for Italian.
Todd Freund, Shawnee Mission sophomore, said Palsano's, 2112 W. 25th St., had an intimate setting.
"Paisano's is a great place to take a date

because even though it's not cheap, you get high-quality food," he said. "In addition, the atmosphere is great for a first date or romantic situation."
According to Brian Mandigo, assistant manager, the atmosphere is casual cool.
"Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra music is always on here," he said. "We have a laid-back dress code. The dining experience and service we provide is second to none."
Teller's, an Italian-American restaurant, is located at the corner of 8th and Massachusetts streets. Supervisor Johnny Ray Petersen said a new chef had changed the food at the restaurant for the better.
"Our chef prepares meals with a definite California influence," he said. "Lighter sauces and fresh herbs are being incorporated into our menu as part of a shift to a lighter type of cuisine."
Petersen said the atmosphere at Teller's warranted casual dining. The restaurant is lighted mainly by lamps, and artwork by famous Kansas artists adorns the walls.
"We're establishing a high level of quality here at Teller's," he said. "For those who haven't been here in awhile, I urge you to come back and see the difference."
The Free State Brewing Company offers a fine dining alternative, said Todd Hupe, Denver junior.
"Free State is nice because its pretty cheap and still has good food and decent atmosphere," he said. "It's a good place to go to with you parents when they're in town."
Free State was the first legal brewpub in Lawrence since the 1880s. Manager Alex Hamilton said the restaurant had a little something for everyone.
"Free State strives to appeal and cater to everyone by serving a wide variety of foods at an affordable cost," he said. "The beauty of it is you will see long-haired hippies sitting at one table and businessmen in suits and ties at the next."
Dating dilemmas often dispelled by frequenting favorite restaraunts

Kansan correspondent
It is an age-old question.
"Where do you want to go tonight?"
"I don't know."
The answer to this question does not have to be difficult. The idea that the way to guys' or girls' hearts is through their stomachs often leads couples to restaurants
Bryan Podor, Lenexa freshman, said that restaurant settings could help set the tone of the evening.
"In my experience, I've discovered that taking a girl to dinner shows her that you are willing to.

Several students said there were specific eating establishments they liked to frequent with their dates.
Lori Bookbinder, Tulsa, Okla., junior, said she thought that Quinton's was a good date restaurant.
Quinton's Bar & Deli has specialties that include soups, sandwiches and salads. Bookbinder said Quinton's offered students a nice, relaxed environment.
"Quintyn's is a fun place to go because it has a great college atmosphere," she said. "It is inexpensive and would be a great place to go on a date."

said.
"There is some-
thing for everyone's palate."
The Massachusetts Street Delicatessen is another favorite of KU students, said Dave Pfeuffer, Syracuse, NY, senior. He said he thought the restaurant would be ideal place to bring a new date.
"I'd go to the Mass Street Dell for a first date," he said. "It has a relaxed atmosphere and is a great place to people watch."
Jim Dallen, general manager of the Mass St. Dell, said he believed that people were drawn to his restaurant because of its extra features.
"The Mass Street Deli is not just a regular deli," he said. "It's more upscale. At night, the restaurant becomes more romantic by dimming the lights and putting candles on the tables. The wait staff also wears denim and ties. Couples are also interested in our outside seating. They like to come for cocktails and sit outside and watch people."
Special events such as birthdays, anniversaries and holidays create a need for more formal settings. Students frequent local restaurants such as Paísano's Ristorante and Teller's for these occasions.
Paisano's Ristorante boasts specialities such as pasta, veal, steak, seafood and wood-fired pizza. It also has a full-service bar.
Prasad Jayaraman, Kansas City junior, appreciates Paisano's quality and its food.
"Paisano's is very nice and it has a lot of different choices," Jayaraman said.
Evan Kuhmann, Teller's general manager, said Teller's was known for its intimate atmosphere. Set in a historic bank building, the Italian restaurant has everything from balcony seating to jazz music.
"Teller's is a nice place where you can sit at a small table with your date," he said. "Since it is an aesthetically nice restaurant, it would be great for a special dinner or a big event, especially if a guy wants to impress a girl."
Andrew Melon, Pittsburgh freshman, said he thought that Tellers offered an ideal date setting.
"I think that Teller's would be a romantic back-drop for a night of intimacy," he said.

Students plan to ignore expected rain, gloomy weather to have fun with family this Parents' Weekend
By Matt James Special to the Kansan
The autumn weather that has made its way to the Lawrence area will have little effect on Parents' Weekend.
According to the National Weather Service in Topeka, there is a near 100 percent chance of showers today and tomorrow, with wind gusts from 10 to 15 miles per hour and highs in he low 60s.
However, no major changes are expected to the weekend's festivities.
The pregame tailgate party
Going deep
A final decision on the location will not be made until tomorrow.
scheduled for tomorrow has not been canceled, said Heidi Schrandt, event coordinator.
"We have a large tent that should provide cover from showers, but if the rain becomes too heavy, we will move it over to Level 3 of the Union in the atrium," she said.
Katie Clanahan, Denver sophomore, said her parents still planned to fly in from Denver to go to the game even though they knew the weather would be rainy.
The dreary weekend conditions are not expected to detour parents from making the trek to Lawrence.
"Heck, yeah, they'll be here," she said. "They wouldn't miss Parents' Weekend for the world."
"We'll still have fun no matter what," Clanahan said. "It's great football weather."
Lucy Scott, St. Louis sophomore, said her parents also planned to drive in today despite the colder temperatures and rain.
Shannon Wells, sales associate at Sportcenter, 840 Massachusetts St., said the store definitely would be ready for a busy weekend.
Downtown sporting-goods stores also are planning for the usual surge in business that comes with Parents' Weekend.
"We're still expecting to be packed after the game," said Susan McCarty, assistant manager of Jocks Nitch, 837 Massachusetts St.
"Anyone who wants a waterproof jacket, though, had better get here early," he said.

In addition to academic information and building tours, Parents' Weekend this year will offer food and festivities to students and their parents before tomorrow's football game. Sandwiches, chips, cookies, fruit and soft drinks will be available at the Office of New Student Orientation's tailgate party which will be held under a tent on Campanile hill.

Undergraduate students to present research
Sponsors discussed plans last night for the Second Annual KU Undergraduate Research Symposium.
Any undergraduates who are conducting research are invited to present their findings at the symposium on Feb. 13, said Barbara Schowen, director of the University Honors Program which sponsors the event.
Participants can present their findings in a 15 minute talk or with a poster presentation.
About 50 students participated in the symposium last year. Schowen said she hoped more would be involved this year.
Benjamin Shockey, Overland Park senior, is analyzing poems written by Herodotus as his project. He plans to present his findings at the symposium.
Undergraduates interested in participating in the symposium must submit their registration no later than Oct. 31.
"It's an opportunity for undergraduates to see that they can do research here," Shockie said. "It gives you a chance to practice presenting what you have done."

Four employees arrested in staged armed robbery
Lawrence police arrested four men Wednesday after they allegedly faked an armed robbery at a local convenience store.
Two Lawrence men called police at 11 p.m. Tuesday and reported that they had been robbed at gunpoint at Miller Mart, 1910 Haskell Ave., where they were employed.
"The two suspects attempted to falsely report a robbery that they had planned with the other two suspects," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Lawnmower police caught Wheeler
When police arrived, they were told
the store had been robbed by a black
male with a handgun.
"Investigations revealed discrepancies in the stories of the two employees." Wheeler said.
Police said a description of the get
away car given by a witness did not match the description given by the two store employees.
When police located and pulled that car over, they found the other two suspects.
Police said none of the suspects knew that the witness had seen the car.
Police took all four suspects to the Lawrence Judicial and Law Enforcement Center, interviewed them, determined it had been a false report and booked them into the Douglas County Jail early Wednesday morning.
Police were unable to find the reported gun and they said they were not sure if there ever had been one.
The four men were arrested on charges of conspiracy to commit a theft, conspiracy to commit a false police report, theft and unrelated drug charges.
Each suspect's bond amount differed, but they range from $2,200 to $3,000. Lawrence police said.
None of the suspects have been released.

Five in Abilene dead in apparent murder-suicide
ABILENE, Kan. — A woman and her three children were found shot to death in their trailer home and her husband, critically injured from an apparent gunshot wound, died yesterday morning.
Authorities said they were not searching for any suspects and were investigating the case as a murder-suicide. They did not release any other details.
The victims, found Wednesday night,
were Doug Bowen, 28; his wife, Sandy
Bowen, 25, and their daughters,
Amanda, 6; Sierra, 4; and Victoria,
Bowen was taken by helicopter to St. Francis Hospital in Wichita about 80 miles south, where he died today. Abilene public service director Jim Davis said. He suffered an apparent gunshot wound, Davis said.
"We are now working this case as a murder-suicide," said Special Agent Steve Teeselink of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation.
Davis said the shootings were reported by a woman who went to the residence.
The KBI has had two agents in Abilene since Wednesday night, Teesellink said, and was arranging for autopsies on the five bodies in Topeka. Given the number of victims, Teesellink said, he would not expect any autopsy results until next week.
Police were interviewing neighbors of the family in this north-central Kansas town of 6.240 people.
Bowen was believed to have worked for an Abilene concrete supplier.

Boeing to pay large fine; government keeps watch
NATION
SEATTL — Boeing agreed to pay a $10 million fine because of allegations it disclosed American technology secrets to
The fine, the largest ever for violations of the Arms Export Control Act, will not stop a U.S. Justice Department criminal investigation into the allegations that Boeing shared technical information with its Russian and Ukrainian partners in the project.
Boeing neither admits nor denies the allegation,spokesman Tim Dolan said Wednesday.
The $500 million project to launch satellites from a floating platform in the Pacific Ocean has been on hold since the allegations arose in July. Work will resume now, officials said. The first launch may be as early as next year.
The violations did not damage national security or harm U.S. foreign policy, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer quoted an unidentified source as saying.
Part of the penalty — $2.5 million will be used to set up a computer system that would enable government agencies to monitor all dealings among the Sea Launch partners.
Boeing has a 40 percent stake in Sea Launch. It is the overall project manager, but the technology primarily is that of other nations.
Dow average plummets technology stocks suffer
NEW YORK — Stocks plunged again yesterday as global economic fears reached a new fever pitch, slicing more than 200 points off the Dow industrials for a second straight day and pushing Wall Street back toward the summer's lows.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell as much as 260 points before finishing with a loss of 210.09 at 7,632.53, a three-week low and less than 100 points above where the blue-chip barometer sat following the 512-point slide of Aug. 31.
Broader stock indicators also tumbled as investors dumped stocks in finance and technology, the two sectors that have been singled out just about every time worries about foreign economic turmoil flared up over the past year.
The technology-heavy Nasdaq composite index sank nearly 5 percent, falling 81.51 to 1,612.33 after losing 40 points on Wednesday — a two-day loss of 6.9 percent. The Standard & Poor's 500 fell 30.63 to 986.38 on top of Wednesday's 32-point drop, losing 5.9 percent for the two sessions.
The Dow is now nearly 300 points, or 3.5 percent, below this year's break-even point of 7,908.25, and about 1,700 points, or 18.3 percent, below the July 17 record of 9,337.79 on July 17.
A 237-point slide on Wednesday left the Dow with a 12.4 percent loss for the third quarter, the worst quarterly performance in eight years.

Army ROTC to showcase skills in demonstration for weekend
By Kolth Burner
Kansan staff reporter
The KU Army Reserve Officers' Training Corps will conduct demonstrations tomorrow in the Military Science Building as part of the University's annual Parents' Weekend.
Kansan staff reporter
The demonstrations, which run from 9-10:30 a.m., are a chance for students to showcase skills they have learned in the program for parents and potential recruits.
In one of the demonstrations, a group of students will be given 80 feet of rope and to cross an obstacle. They will have three five minutes to construct a bridge and get everyone across.
Another group of students will do a marching display.
There also will be a weapons demonstration, in which students perform maneuvers such as spinning and shouldering M-16 rifles in unison, said David Stanley, O'Fallon, Ill., junior and third year Army ROTC member.
Lt. Col. Anthony J. Gasbarre, adjunct professor of military science, also will speak to parents, students and recruits about the ROTC program, the military and what is expected of military officers.
Carrie Seetin, Kansas City, Kan., senior and ROTC student public relations officer, said that many of the students in the ROTC program had served in the military in the past and that they could put on a good show for any recruits present.
"They have a lot of experience, and that could probably spark a lot of interest," she said.
Tables will be set up with information about the military and the ROTC programs, Seetin said.
Parents welcomed with open houses

"I didn't know what to expect," Schrandt said.
"Going from my end of it, I just tried to think of something I would enjoy if I were a parent."
The party costs $5 per person and is only open to those who pre registered.
In other Parents' Weekend events, several schools and offices from the University will display informational exhibits from 9:30-11 a.m. tomorrow.
The open houses were designed for new students and their parents to get acquainted with the University.
"We want to give parents and families a chance to get better connected with academics and what life is like here on Mount Oread," she said.
Professors of the respective schools will not necessarily be at the open house, but Schrandt said there would be people at each of the open houses to give information to visitors.
The biological sciences department has planned to give visitors a few lessons in laboratory science during the open house.

"We think this is a good way for students, particularly in the lower levels, to show their families what they do," Elder said. "That way, when students come home and say they did this-or that in lab, the parents have a better idea of what they are talking about."
Jan Elder, administrative assistant for undergraduate biology, said the department would have several exhibits including an electron microscope, microlabs and a greenhouse, as well as demonstrations.

Culture promotes teen drinking
By Kelli Rayborn and Steph Brewer
Kansas staff writers
For many U.S. students, college social life is a '90s version of Animal House — wild parties, drunken nights and hangovers.
However, many cultures attach a negative stigma to this behavior.
Clement Gulley, visiting from Marselles, France, said that public intoxication was not socially acceptable in his country.
"To get drunk all the time is not good for your image," he said.
John Stewart, Blue Springs, Mo. senior, has spent significant amounts of time in both Brazil and Argentina.
"I got the idea that if you went to a restaurant, you could pick out young Americans, because they were ordering beers and everyone else was ordering cokes," Stewart said. "I think it's considered shameful in Argentina to get drunk in public."
Henry Wechsler, lecturer on social psychology at Harvard University, said that college alcohol use depended on habits formed in high school.
"Many start bingeing in high school and continue in college," he
said. "It often reflects usage patterns of parents and/or high school peers."
Wechsler's recent study of college binge drinking has focused national media attention on the campus alcohol issue. His research showed that 42.7 percent of college students were
binge drinkers and that 20.7 percent were frequent binge drinkers.
Alcohol Agenda
Wechsler said that the youth in this country needed to learn
about responsible drinking from an early age at home.
"It should be by example," he said.
"Do as I do, not just as I say."
Teens instead are aware that their experiences with alcohol are not to be shared with their parents.
"There's no way in hell in high school I'd call my mom and tell her, 'Mom I can't come home because I'm drunk,'" said Kristi Thompson, Topeka junior.
The underground nature of teen drinking shapes their experiences and attitudes toward alcohol.
Thompson said that when she was in high school, opportunities to
These covert experiences force teenagers to learn about drinking from equally naive peers instead of their parents.
drink with friends were limited and had to be carefully organized to avoid getting caught.
Gullyard said that children in France were taught from an early age to drink responsibly.
"When you're a baby, your father puts wine in your glass so you can try it," he said. "It's not a big deal for us. We drink whenever we want to drink."
Ceelicia Carlander, a college student from Goteborg, Sweden, said that the drinking age in Sweden varied from 18 years old to 20 years old, depending on where the alcohol was bought. She said clubs and bars were allowed to establish their own age limits, which were often over 21.
Carlander has lived in France and said that she thought alcohol was more of an issue in Sweden where teen-agers sometimes went on vacation for the sole purpose of legally buying alcohol.
"The adolescents are more curious here because alcohol is forbidden to them," she said.
Reaching that key age is part of a university student's passage into
Peter Mancall, professor of history, related a story about a U.S. student approaching her 21st birthday, who was warned by her physician not to drink for medical reasons.
adulthood often a dangerous part.
"On her 21st birthday, following what she perceived as American culture, she went out and consumed 21 drinks. To me it was incredible stupidity, but to her this was a ritual, a 'rite of passage',' he said.
The reality is that while college students may view themselves as adults, the law states that they are children until they become 21.
Mancall, who spent last summer on a fellowship with the Alcohol Advisory Council of New Zealand, recognized a contradiction in the U.S. drinking laws.
"If you look at American society, we're saying people can drive at 15 or 16, be drafted to go to war at 18, can vote at 18," he said. "What's going on that alcohol has a different status than these things?"
Mancall said he did not advocate lowering the drinking age but recognized the confusion generated by the discrepant laws.
we as a society have a very difficult time understanding the passage from adolescence to adulthood."
Chancellor concerned with student alcohol use
This is a question and answer session with Chancellor Robert Hemenway concerning alcohol use and abuse.
Q: What are the main problems that you see with students who use alcohol?
If we don't want anybody to be physically harmed or mentally harmed...There's a lot of evidence that people's academic career has been jeopardized by the use of alcohol... We know that most of the issues of violence and date rape increase with the use of alcohol.
Q: What concerns you the most about underage drinking?
A: I am concerned with underage drinkers because that's where a lot of binge drinking occurs. By definition of an underage drinker, they have relatively little experience.
Q: And legal student drinkers?
Q: And legal student or drunkers:
A: If you are 21 and are drinking as an adult, I am concerned a little bit about how they serve as a model for others... I am concerned about them making intelligent decisions. It doesn't matter if you are 19, 21 or 56 — you have got to
make intelligent decisions.
Q: What are your future goals with alcohol policies at the University?
A: I would like to get to a situation where anybody who was using alcohol and was a student at KU was making educated and responsible decisions with that use or non-use. You can say that's an ideal, but you are never going to reach everybody. My answer is if you don't try to reach everybody, you will never reach anybody.
Q: Are any repercussions planned in the future for students who get in trouble with the law because of alcohol use?
A: My hope is that we will get some recommendations from the alcohol task force... I do know that there are institutions like the University of Delaware where you have two or three alcohol-related events and you can be suspended from the university. I don't know whether it's the best model or not, but I presume the task force will look at that and also other alternatives.

Administrators from the University of Kansas are trying to determine why KU students binge drink and what they can do to stop it.
Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor, said that it was the University's responsibility to educate students about alcohol awareness.
"When students are caught on campus with alcohol, there are consequences," Ballard said. "When they go out, we can't follow them around, but we have got to try to educate them."
sgt. Troy Maileen of the KU Public Safety Office said the police had no involvement with alcohol-related arrests off-campus unless it was brought back to University property.
Ballard, who also is a representative to the University's alcohol task force, said the focus was the safety of the students.
"We need to take action before someone gets hurt," she said. "We don't
want to scare people, but accidents do happen. The message to students is that it's their choice to prevent it."
Ballard said the purpose of the survey
Ballard said the pu filled out by students this past week was to determine drinking behaviors of students.
"We want to find out if they're going to parties because of no other activities on campus," Ballard said. "Or, if the results show that it's easy to get into certain bars and drink, we need to look at that."

Ballard: Says University must educate alcohol.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that students saying they had nothing better to do than drink was just an excuse.
"What you see at KU mirrors what goes on elsewhere in the country."
According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, The Senate urged colleges to provide alcohol-free social activities, to eliminate sponsorship by beverage companies of on-campus events, and to enforce a zero-tolerance policy against underage drinking.
Congress also has been focusing on how colleges can combat underage drinking. Tuesday the Senate approved a resolution that called for colleges and universities to take specific steps to control binge drinking.
Hemenway said, "The individual needs to take the responsibility."
Ryan Anderson, Lenexa sophomore, said the University had the right to take legal action against underage drinkers.
"They have the right to govern anywhere where it's KU-owned property," Anderson said.
Margo Miller, mother of Brandon Miller, Hutchinson sophomore, said that it was the parents' duty to educate their kids to drink responsibly, not the University's.

Alcohol task force should focus on drunk driving, not who drinks
Weekends in college, for most students, are the times to leave the stress of the academic week behind and unwind with friends. According to a study by the Harvard School of Public Health, 44 percent of college students spend their weekends consuming mass quantities of alcohol.
The alcohol task force, composed of the mayor of Lawrence, Haskell Indian Nations University administrators and students, KU administrators and students, Lawrence bar owners and the Lawrence chief of police, has members who have lived in a college town and many of whom have attended college. Yet they are administering surveys to find out whether students drink.
The answer to no one's surprise is yes, which they will be able to confirm
The task force is administering a survey today to find out who drinks, how much and where.
with their survey. The task force should be spending more time figuring out ways to reduce the tragedies resulting from alcohol rather than surveying KU students to see if they drink and trying to change the culture of a social activity long-embedded in society
One of the greatest tragedies regarding alcohol consumption is that of drunk driving. Each day, eight young people are killed in alcohol-related car crashes, according to Mothers Against Drunk Driving. Last March Lisa Rosel, a KU freshman was fatally
wounded after she was hit by a car.
The driver of the vehicle was intoxicated. Such incidents could be prevented if something were done to ensure that no one would be inclined to drive their cars from bar to bar, party to party and then back home. An expansion of Safe Ride, KU on Wheels or an increased number of sobriety check-points should be the focus of the task force.
Restricting minors from consuming alcohol in bars and at parties will not solve the problem but rather disperse it to other places.
The ideal would be to eliminate underage consumption of alcohol. However, realistically, underage people will continue to drink. The probability of curbing drunk driving, however, is greater and should therefore be the concentration of the task force.

Community enrollment program helps fulfill University's mission
Minority enrollment at the University of Kansas rose again this year, making the student population more diverse than it has ever been before. However, not all of the University's tools for increasing student diversity are being fully employed.

Perspective
Instead of debating about the abortion issue, I would like to speak for those whose voices were drowned out by angry rhetoric last week. The people I
Abortion industry not looking out for women
David
Perico
cinion@kanan.com
would like to speak for are the women who feel too much emotional pain to talk publicly about their unplanned pregnancies or past abortions.
Although pregnancy should be a time of happiness and joy for a mother, this may not be the case when a woman has to deal with an unplanned pregnancy.
Most women dealing with crisis pregnancies must face the ordeal without husbands, committed boyfriends or the approval of their families and friends. These circumstances can turn their pregnancies into a time of distress, shame, and fear.
This is where the biggest problem seems to lie, and finding solutions for this problem is what people must focus on if women and their babies are going to be spared the awful consequences of abortion.
There are a couple of organizations that you can call to get in touch with someone who will provide these kinds of assistance without charge. There is a student organization on campus called KU Students for Life. You can get their phone number from the Organization and Leadership Office in the Kansas Union. You can also call an organization here in Lawrence, called Birthright. It is listed in the Yellow Pages under Abortion Alternatives, and it's services are free.
A women dealing with an unplanned pregnancy or a past abortion should seek help from people who will reach out with love and compassion. If family or friends won't provide that support, there are many organizations in Lawrence and the surrounding area that provide a multitude of free services such as housing, counseling, adoption and medical care to women in crises pregnancies and women dealing with past abortions.
All life is precious, and I don't want to see any woman or her baby to suffer. I don't want to see any baby die needlessly, and I don't want any woman suffer like the women I've seen who try to talk about a past abortion. But, all I can really do about this issue is encourage expecting mothers to stop and think about from whom they are getting advice.
Abortion really is a tragedy. Some people may treat the it a ballot issue or political platform, but decisions about ending or preserving human life should never be treated so casually. Besides, it's not just a life that's at stake. What's at stake is a whole lifetime of happiness, good times and bad, and above all, love.
This mutual love between a mother and her child is one of the strongest bonds two people can experience. So, when a woman becomes pregnant and feels enough fear or despair or shame to consider ending the life of her unborn child, something has gone horribly wrong.
When expecting mothers have to deal with a crisis like this without the emotional support that they need, it's easy for these women to believe someone from the abortion industry who tells them that there is a quick solution for their problem. This is what makes it so despicable. The abortion industry makes a lot of money taking innocent lives under the guise of helping women.
Now, I don't claim to have all the answers to the problems women encounter when they face a crisis pregnancy, but I do know I have seen solutions to this sort of problem that work, for the mother and the child.
Is it someone who will profit from your misfortune or someone who won't fully explain the awful emotional consequences and medical risks of abortion? If so, you are listening to the wrong person.
Turn to people who really care about you and who will help you make a decision that you won't regret.

Vegetarians place focus on animal welfare and health
Today is the birth date of Mohandas Gandhi; the Indian dissident known for his advocacy of passive resistance and vegetarianism. People all around the
Karl Hardy

world will be commemorating World Farm Animals Day in celebration of his philosophies about non-violence and kindness toward all beings.
The focus of World Farm Animals Day is to raise awareness concerning the plight of the world's billions of farm animals and to promote the vegetarian lifestyle.
needless suffering and death of sentient beings. I believe, and surveys support my opinion, that most people care about the treatment of animals. Yet while the overwhelming majority of people claim to be concerned about animal welfare, most people still support the meat and dairy industries. For their businesses to survive, the industries have to be as economically efficient and profitable as possible. Unfortunately, industry profitability and humane conditions for animals are in direct conflict.
Farm animals have been bred and given hormones so that their bodies can yield the maximum amount of meat and/or milk, without regard to the pain and suffering that unnatural amounts of body weight will cause. Cows, pigs and chickens are often kept in overcrowded, unsanitary conditions that lead to disease and stress-related fighting between the animals. Once it comes time for an animal to be slaughtered, it usually is done without analgesics by workers who are neither trained nor given the means to humanely kill the animal.
Vegetarianism focuses on caring about the needless suffering and
In addition to unnecessary suffering for the animals, the meat and dairy industries directly contribute to environmental breakdowns. In addition to the enormous amount of resources necessary to sustain animals (suitable land, water and pesticides), the huge amounts of animal waste resulting from cow, pig and chicken farms have caused severe environmental problems.
One of the usual questions I am asked in regards to vegetarianism is about nutrition. In particular, the supposed protein deficiency that vegetarians suffer from
The hypocrisy is obvious. People love and care for dogs, cats and horses, yet continue to support the meat and dairy industries at the expense of the animals' suffering, the environment and their own health.
However, in my experiences, most critics have not taken the time to think through the ramifications of their diet. Usually, their arguments are based on conventional, illogical ideology. Conforming to society's accepted ideology for the sake of remaining in line with mainstream values is not the way for anyone to make decisions that effect the quality of life on earth for humans and animals alike.
By eating a vegetarian diet, people can make a strong statement as to the future of humanity. The question is whether humanity is going to stand up for what is right or continue to put profit ahead of peace. Are we going to continue to harm and abuse our fellow sentient inhabitants of Earth, or are we going to set a moral standard of compassion and non-violence toward all beings?
Living a compassionate lifestyle is much easier than most people seem to believe. Vegetarian alternatives are offered at many restaurants, and many companies now make cruelty-free products. Like any idea contrary to convention, vegetarians and animal rights activists have their critics.
This fallacy is a direct result of the meat and dairy industries promotion of the famed Four Food Groups, which have been used to "educate" kids about the benefits of consuming meat and dairy products for decades. In reality, the American Dietetic Association, the nation's foremost authority on dietary matters, promotes a vegetarian diet as a means of reducing health risks including coronary artery disease, kidney disease and obesity. Also, studies have shown that vegetarians have significantly lower rates of cancer, specifically lung cancer and colon cancer.
In an age where technology should allow every person, indeed every living being, adequate nutrition, millions worldwide starve to death. Here in the United States, many, including children, suffer from malnutrition, even though more than two-thirds of the United States and one-third of the world's grain harvest is fed to farm animals.
As Gandhi said "The greatness of a nation, and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."

DiFranco to promote cause at Lied Center
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
Students who will see Ani DIFranco perform at the Lied Center Sunday night should expect much more than a rock concert.
Not only will DiFranco sing the lyrics from her new album, Little Plastic Castle, she will promote a social and political cause.
DiFranco supports Leonard Peltier, who was charged with shooting two FBI agents 23 years ago, said Keith McHenry, a staff member for the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee.
"Like many people, DFranco believes Leonard should be free," McHenry said. "Even the government says he is not guilty. He has become one of America's most famous prisoners."
Breeze Luetke-Stahlman, Washington lobbyist for Peltier and KU alumna, said that Peltier was wrongfully accused because he is Native American.
prettier was a part of the American Indian Movement at the time, and this organization was seen as a threat to the government," she said.
Luetke-Stahlman will speak before DIFranco takes the stage. She said her message would be for people to get involved locally with the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee, whose international headquarters are in Lawrence.
Luetke-Stahlman said that relating to Sunday night's crowd about the Peltier case would be difficult because the majority of the audience had not been born when Peltier was imprisoned. She said Difranco had the advantage to reaching the crowd.
"A lot of people look up to her," Luetke-Stahman said. "The audience will see it as a worthy cause through her."
"DiFranco is knowledgeable on the case," she said.
"She's not just handing over money for the cause.
Her involvement will make a major difference in

Student Union Activities, Pipeline Productions and Avalanche Productions are sponsoring the event. Mary Smith, SUA box office supervisor, said that the event wasn't officially sold out, but only one ticket was available as of Thursday afternoon.
The artist released a number of seats that will be available to the public two hours prior to the concert. "Smith said.
Michelle Dennard, SUA student adviser, said that about 80 tickets would go on sale at 6 p.m. Sunday at the Lied Center.
"What people need to do is come to the Lied Center on Sunday and be put on a waiting list," Dennard said. "You must be present when your name is called to get the tickets."
The event will start at 8 p.m. The band Weeping Tile will be the opening act.

Students and faculty in close quarters such as lecture halls, elevators and residence halls should consider getting a flu shot to prevent sickness.
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
The season for influenza, commonly known as the flu, hits its peak between late December and early March, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
In studies of healthy young adults, the flu vaccine has proven to be 70 percent to 98 percent effective in preventing illness, according to the CDC. It takes about one to two weeks after vaccination to provide protection. Randall Rock, chief of staff for Watkins Memorial Health Center,
"Everyone is susceptible, so we

encourage students, who are planning for finals, to get a shot," Rock said. "Most people don't have a week to 10 days to be sick."
Rock said flu symptoms included fever, headache, sore throat, coughing and heavy chest discomfort.
Students can walk into Watkins without an appointment and receive a flu shot for $5. Vaccinations will take place from mid-October to Nov. 1 at campus sites to be announced.
He also said people who were at high risk to contract the flu included smokers and those with chronic respiratory problems. The virus is contracted by exposure to respiratory droplets from someone coughing or droplet secretions on the hands, he said.
Because the vaccine is made from inactive viruses, it can't give someone the flu. According to the CDC, those allergic to eggs should not

A Free, drive-through clinic will take place from 8 a.m. to noon, Oct. 17 at the University of Kansas Medical Center, 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard, Kansas City, Kan.

"The Type A Sydney came out late last year and wasn't part of the vaccine," he said.
While receiving the vaccine intravenously is the only method available now, a nasal spray called FluMist is waiting for Federal Drug Administration approval.
Manufactured by Aviron, a Mountain View, Calif., biotechnology company, the nasal spray works similar to the inactive vaccine and is more effective for younger people. Moriarty said. He said he expected that it would replace the flu shot as soon as next year.

DiFranco to promote cause at Lied Center
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
Students who will see Ani DIFranco perform at the Lied Center Sunday night should expect much more than a rock concert.
Not only will DiFranco sing the lyrics from her new album, Little Plastic Castle, she will promote a social and political cause.
DiFranco supports Leonard Peltier, who was charged with shooting two FBI agents 23 years ago, said Keith McHenry, a staff member for the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee.
"Like many people, DiFranco believes Leonard should be free," McHenry said. "Even the government says he is not guilty. He has become one of America's most famous prisoners."
breeze Luetke-Stahlman, WashingtonJobstier for Peltier and KU alumna, said that Peltier was wrongfully accused because he is Native American.
"Peltier was a part of the American Indian Movement at the time, and this organization was seen as a threat to the government," she said.
Luetke-Stahlman will speak before DifFranco takes the stage. She said her message would be for people to get involved locally with the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee, whose international headquarters are in Lawrence.
Luetke-Stahlman said that relating to Sunday night's crowd about the Peltier case would be difficult because the majority of the audience had not been born when Peltier was imprisoned. She said DIFranco had the advantage to reaching the crowd.
"A lot of people look up to her," Luetke-Stahman said. "The audience will see it as a worthy cause through her."
"DIFranco is knowledgeable on the case," she said. "She's not just handing over money for the cause. Her involvement will make a major difference in

neeping to release him, and that's better than all the money in the world."
Michelle Dennard, SUA student adviser, said that about 80 tickets would go on sale at 6 p.m. Sunday at the Lied Center.
"The artist released a number of seats that will be available to the public two hours prior to the concert." Smith said.
"What people need to do is come to the Lied Center on Sunday and be put on a waiting list," Dennard said. "You must be present when your name is called to get the tickets."
The event will start at 8 p.m. The band Weeping Tile will be the opening act.

Students and faculty in close quarters such as lecture halls, elevators and residence halls should consider getting a flu shot to prevent sickness.
The season for influenza, commonly known as the flu, hits its peak between late December and early March, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Randall Rock, chief of staff for Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins offered flu shots for $5.
In studies of healthy young adults, the flu vaccine has proven to be 70 percent to 90 percent effective in preventing illness, according to the CDC. It takes about one to two weeks after vaccination to provide protection.

encourage students, who are planning for finals, to get a shot," Rock said. "Most people don't have a week to 10 days to be sick."
Rock said flu symptoms included fever, headache, sore throat, coughing and heavy chest discomfort.
Because the virus is so contagious, Rock said that students with acute symptoms such as a fever and cough limit their contact with others.
Because the vaccine is made from inactive viruses, it can't give someone the flu. According to the CDC, those allergic to eggs should not

A free, drive-through clinic will take place from 8 a.m. to noon, Oct. 17 at the University of Kansas Medical Center, 39th Street and Rainbow Boulevard, Kansas City, Kan.
"The Type A Sydney came out late last year and wasn't part of the vaccine." he said.
While receiving the vaccine intravenously is the only method available now, a nasal spray called FluMist is waiting for Federal Drug Administration approval.

Vaccine strains must be chosen nine to ten months before the flu season, according to the CDC. The vaccine for the 1998-99 season protects against
Manufactured by Aviron, a Mountain View, Calif., biotechnology company, the nasal spray works similar to the inactive vaccine and is more effective for younger people. Moriarty said. He said he expected that it would replace the flu shot as soon as next year.

New restaurant provides remedy for students' late-night cravings
New York Burrito added to downtown food scene
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Konson staff writer
A new restaurant offers students another option after tired downtown bartenders close for the night.
New York Burrito, 939 Massachusetts St. opened two weeks ago in the heart of downtown Lawrence.
"Our proximity to the other late-night business is great," said Ken Ryan, manager of New York Burrito.
He said that the location made it safer for students who had had too much to drink. He said that people could walk directly from a bar and not worry about driving to another restaurant.

"You can walk down the road and sober up a little before driving," said Chris Overman, Overland Park junior.
Despite its location, New York hurried, which closes at 3 a.m. Thursday through Saturday, hasn't been impacted by the late-night crowd yet.
"I know what that can do, and it's scary," Ryan said. "I don't know if we can keep up."
Panchero's, 814 Massachusetts St., is another late-night restaurant located downtown.
Jesus Morales, night manager of Panchero's, said that business increased 80 percent from Thursday through Friday.
Panchero's management isn't worried about the possible competition. Morales said.

Burrito have enlouded the restaurant.
"I like the atmosphere," said Tracy McDonald, Lenexa junior.
New York Burrito's hours are 11 a.m.-midnight Sunday through Wednesday and 11-3 a.m. Thursday through Saturday.
"The people working were all nice to me."
Ryan said that the hours were temporary and could change depending on the level of business.

Dave Boulter is the owner of Henry's on Henry Street on Eighth.
He said the intriguing name came from the pre-1900 name of Eighth Street, which was Henry Street.
A new coffee shop in downtown Lawrence wants to be noticed in spite of the high concentration of cafes in the area.
Boulter is opening his coffee house with the help of Topeka proprietors Jeff Taylor and Fred Pozlin, who own PT's Caffe & Roasterie.
Henry's will feature coffee from Taylor and Pozlin's coffee shop. Taylor imports coffee from locations across the world such as Kenya, Zimbabwe and Guatemala.
With help from Taylor, Boulter
expects Henry's to open on Wednesday.
Taylor said that although there were many coffee shops in downtown Lawrence, he hoped Henry's would succeed.
"We're not trying to compete with the other coffee shops," he said. "That's not our goal. We want to provide a good product and see what happens."
Boulter said he wanted to set his business apart from most coffee shops.
He said that Henry's menu would feature different kinds of sandwiches such as a British cheese-and-pickle sandwich, soups such as a West African peanut soup and several kinds of coffee blends and drinks.
"We're going to serve food every minute that we're open," he said.
Boultier said Henry's atmosphere
would attract customers of all ages.
He said the design of the coffeehouse was similar to that of a European cafe.
"There's lots of sculptures that connect into one another," he said. "We want to provide an atmosphere that everyone can enjoy."
Boulter expects to get a liquor license so that Henry's menu can be more diverse. However, he said that Henry's wouldn't fall into any specific category.
"We don't want to just be another coffeehouse or another cafe or another bar," he said.
Derek Hogan, owner of The Java Break, 17 E. Seventh St., said that the keys to running a successful coffeehouse were great service, products and atmosphere.
"The Java Break is unique because it has a lot of different atmospheres in the same place," he
said.
Hogan said he made sure his employees enjoyed their jobs because that translated into satisfied customers.
"I work really hard to make sure my employees are well-trained," he said.
Kitty Steffens has been manager at Classic Gourmet, 735 Massachusetts St. for three years.
She said that because there was a large concentration of coffee shops downtown, each business had to cater to different clientele.
"What you have to take into con sideration is: Who's going downtown these days?" she said.
Steffens said that a lot of cafes catered to younger people but that each coffeehouse had a unique atmosphere.
"I think they all have to have a certain something," she said.

FIRE?
story by augustus anthony piazza kansan staff writer
W when a fire alarm warn off Monday night at Stauffer-Flint Hall, students stood outside in the pouring rain for 15 minutes before emergency crews arrived.
is minutes before Wondering why KU security hadn't snown up. Katie Holman got tired of waiting, pulled out her cell phone and dialed up the Office of Public Safety to let them know about the alarm.
What Holman, Bonner Springs senior, didn't know was that there are buildings on campus that have alarm systems connected to the safety office — and some that do not.
Stauffer-Flint is one of those buildings not connected to the safety office. Fortunately, it was a false alarm.
Sgt. Gale Reece said that Stauffer-Flint's fire alarm was not connected to the Office of Public Safety's alarm console, that meant officers were not informed about it until Holman's call.
However, in accordance with state fire marshal laws, each campus building where people congregate has at least one fire alarm system designed to the notify occupants of a fire, said Rick Fay, fire protection specialist for the state marshal.
"The state fire marshal's biggest objective is to get occupants out of a building before the firefighters get there," Fay said.
John Mullens, KU safety and security coordinator, said that once occupants were out, it was their responsibility to contact emergency officials — even if the building is connected to the safety office.
If no occupants are present at the time of a fire, then it is the responsibility of someone driving by or in a nearby building to contact the Office of Public Safety, Mullens said.
the Office of Home Security. But six buildings on campus have alarm systems that are connected to the office's console. These systems alert the building's occupants and also alert the Office of Public Safety to the exact location of the alarm.
Allen Field House was the first to receive such a system. The "smart panel" system, which costs between $275,000 and $300,000, was installed six years ago to send the information through fiber-optic cable to a computer in the safety office. Once the alarm is acknowledged, officials can click on three separate screens to learn more about the emergency.
The first screen flashes the name of the building in which the alarm is sounding. The second screen shows the exact floor where the alarm or originated. The third screen shows a floor plan of the building and the specific alarm that was set off.
HAZARDS?
Officials who monitor the system can then dispatch the police, fire or medical unit to the specific place where the alarm sounded.
Buildings that have no alarm systems connected to the Office of Public Safety, Some may have individual smoke detectors.

Another 20 buildings have systems that notify the safety office of an alarm, but not its location, according to information from the security and emergency planning department.
The updated message system costs 10 to 15 percent more than the original smart panel system, said Bob Rombach, University project manager of consult services.
During the renovation of Budig Hall, an updated version of the smart panel system was installed. The new system still uses the three-screen method for the safety office. But before the alarm sounds, a pre-recorded message alerts occupants of the building that there is an emergency.
Construction on the voice system will be completed in January in Strong Hall.
Rombach said that the voice messages helped people understand what they needed to do during an alarm.
Budig Hall and Memorial Stadium were the first to receive the voice audible system.
The voice audible system is preprogrammed to send voice messages to occupants of a building in the case of an emergency, to help keep people from panicking. The message alerts occupants of the safety measures that they need to take.
"People who are informed are the safest," he said.
The University signed a procurement bid with a national security systems vendor for the next five years. The bid will guarantee that each time a new system is installed it will be the same design and price.
Robinson Center, Murphy Hall and Malott Hall are next in line for the new system.
Human are next in building Because Murphy was renovated last year, University officials decided to add the new system along with the remodeling process. Malott is slated for the new system because of the number of occupants it holds and because many of the students in the building are unfamiliar with its layout, Rombach said. Robinson also will get a new system.
There is no set schedule for the addition of new fire systems in all campus buildings, he said.
"Eventually all buildings with assembly will be evaluated and updated as needed." Rombach said.

Texas A&M wants to extend winning streak to four games

Texas A&M comes to Lawrence tomorrow hoping to extend its winning streak to four games and looking to pick up a Big 12 win in its first conference game.
The Aggies boast the nation's 13th best defense, but their offense is not as impressive.
Last week against North Texas, Aggies head coach R.C. Slocum pulled senior starting quarterback Brandon Stewart, who was 4-of-10 for 80 yards at the time. Junior backup Randy McCown stepped in and went 11-of-13 for a career high 167 yards and two touchdowns in the Aggies 28-9 win.
Slocum said. "The backup quarterback is always
the guy that everyone wants to put in there. A lot of times when they come in there, there's not the pressure that's been on the starter. So it's not unusual for that guy to come in and make good things happen."
ATM
Heading into last week's game Texas A&M's offense
was ranked 108th in the country, but improved to 98th after the win against North Texas.
Despite the offense's lack of production, the Aggies defense does a good job of picking up the slack when the offense struggles. The "Wrecking Crew" the nickname for the Aggies defense, is anchored up front by senior middle linebacker Dat Neuvien who leads the team in tackles with 36.
Coady, who has helped Texas A&M to a 3-1 record, knows that the Aggies have a job to do in Lawrence.
The secondary is led by senior strong safety Rich Coady who is second on the team in tackles with 30 and leads the team in interceptions with two.
"We've been looking forward to this game all summer," he said. "It's important that we get off on the right foot in conference."
Both Nguyen and Coady said they were aware of Kansas' improved offense and that they knew they would have to limit their mistakes to beat the Jayhawks.
"They're a balanced team, maybe the most balanced team we've played this year," Nguyen said. "They have a good, fast little running back in Winbush, and good backups. Their quarterback is very experienced and capable of making good plays."
Coady echoed Nguyen's sentiments.
"I think they're a very dangerous team," he said. "They've already played two conference ball games. Their offense is good. Their not a Florida State, their more ball control, west-coast style. It's gonna be a tough physical ball game."
Nguyen, who is on pace to be the first Texas A&M player to lead the team in tackles for all four years and only 49 tackles away from becoming the Aggie's all-time leader, is excited about coming to Lawrence.

"I can't wait to get away from here where it's so hot," Nguyen said. "In order to go up there and win we're gonna have to play our best."
Conference clash
'Hawks plan to use momentum from win
Coach says team needs confidence against Aggies
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas football team is riding a high into this weekend's game against Texas A&M. Or at least it is going to try.
After an emotional four-overtime win Saturday against Alabama-Birmingham, the Jayhawks would like nothing more than to take that enthusiasm and use it on the Aggies.
"I think, obviously, that we'd like to take the momentum from the victory there," coach Terry Allen said. "Sure, we'd like to take some of the confidence and success that we had in the fourth quarter and the overtimes into this football game. We'll need it."
But it's going to take more than emotion to beat the 18th-ranked Aggies.
"We could be a really good team if we could eliminate a lot of the mistakes that we've been making and play on the same page," said offensive guard Justin Glasgow. "As far as that, I think we could be an exceptional team, it's just more or less coming together and playing smart football."
And a mistake, of any kind, cannot be afforded when playing a top-25 team.
"I think if we just play a solid game, we'll be all right," Glasgow said. "We're just going to have to do
everything kind of perfect."
Last weekend's victory is something they would like to repeat this

weekend when the Aggies travel to Memorial Stadium for an 11:37 a.m. kickoff. The game will be televised on Fox Sports Network.
"There's a lot of optimism, and it wasn't just from last game, it's been building ever since the last three or four games of last year," said receiver Michael Chandler. "There's more confidence in the fact that we know that even coming out
so flat, we finished so strong and that we pulled together as an offense to do it."
Texas A&M coach R. C. Slocum also recognized that Kansas was a different team from last year.
"They're a dangerous team," he said. "They're 2-2, but after looking at the tape, you can see that they could easily be 4-0 overall and 2-0 against the league. There's no question that this team is good enough to beat us."
"Any given team can beat any great team on any given day," he said. "I think we're on the verge of being a great team. I think we saw some good things in the game against UAB. We're very close to popping out and being a successful team."
There's no doubt in Glasgow's mind, either.
Chandler said that the team

"You kind of have to come back down to earth a little bit," Chandler said. "You still want to ride that emotional high into the next game, but there's a point where you can't get too involved in what happened last week, and you have to concentrate that this is a new team — it's a better team. We've got to ride that high, but not use it too much."

In Thursday's Kanson, it was reported that the series between the Atlanta Braves and the Chicago Cubs was tied at one game a piece. It should have said that the Braves lead the series 1-0.
In the soccer story about freshman forward Lindsay Kennedy, it was reported that Kennedy was the team leader in assists and goals with eight. It should have said that Kennedy leads the team in points. She has four goals and no assists, with goals counting for two points each.

Virgo: Today is a 5.
Rigby rightly says:
The moon is going into Pisces today, which draws you out. You are a pretty thorough person, but if there is anything in your life that you would rather not deal with right now, you can bet it will come up. This is for your own good, so do not complain.
Scorsio ; Today is a 4.
Libra Today is an 8.

Aauarius: Today is a 7.
Do whatever needs to be done to make sure the money comes in. Then you can devote time to practicing a new skill. You have natural talent, and that will be even more obvious after you practice a little more. Do not worry. That work will propel you to achieving a goal you never dreamed possible.
Your focus today should shift to practical matters. Not to worry. The money is coming in. Your problem is that you would like to buy gifts with it. Get something special for your mate, to show you care. It is a wise investment.
Pisces:Today is a 6.
Conditions today will give you the strength to speak up about something important. You often let other people do what they want just to keep from drawing attention. You like to keep a low profile, but today that might not be possible. Looks like something is going on that involves you, so you had better speak up.

"You can still pass other boats, but it's more of a race against the clock," Valbraa said.
Coach Rob Catloth said that he was happy with his team's performance in practice.
"They're looking pretty good," he said. "They're moving the boat a lot better than we have in the past."
me head of the Ohio will be the first and last race the team competes in before making walk-on cuts next week.
The fall schedule is not as competitive as the spring, so this race will be used to judge the team's progress so far.
This weekend also will serve as a warm-up for the team's main fall race, the Head of the Charles, held Oct. 17-18 in Boston.

Soccer team to face conference rival
Baylor ranked 23rd in nation
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Last year when the Kansas soccer team traveled to Waco, Texas, to battle Big 12 Conference rival Baylor, nothing could have prepared goalkeeper Jen Fcke for what she would have to face.
The Bears dominated the match and peppered Feecke with 40 shots.
However, the Bears didn't get a shot by Fecke until late in the second overtime. In the 118th minute, two minutes before a draw, Bears forward Molly Cameron scored, giving Baylor a 1-0 win.
"I hope we don't allow as many shots this year," Fecke said. "We have a better team this year and more leadership to deal with their style of play."
The Jayhawks meet Baylor at 3 p.m. today. Kansas coach Dan Magner described Baylor (6-3), ranked 23rd in the nation by Soccer News, as the best soccer team
in the Big 12. He said that while Nebraska and Texas A&M might have better records and be more physical, the Bears moved the ball well and were organized defensively
"Baylor has many dangerous
players," he said. "The types of players they have can change a game in an instant. Their forwards are good enough to turn and beat defenders one-on-one."
PETER PARKER
Baylor has played a difficult schedule this season.
Fcke: Says 'Hawks must stay focused to beat Baylor.
Last weekend, the Bears shocked 20th-ranked Duke 4-0 on the road before getting blown out on Sunday 5-0 by the top-ranked North Carolina Tar Heels.
Baylor is led by forward Courtney Saunders, who leads the Big 12 in scoring with nine goals and two assists for a total of 20 points.
The 1998 season has been a season of firsts for Kansas, and a win against the Bears would be the first win for the Jayhawks against a ranked opponent.
"We are going to need to play physical for 90 minutes," said defender Sarah Korpi.
Fecke agreed that the Jayhawks would have to keep their focus for the entire game.
"It's going to take a good, complete team effort for 90 minutes," she said. "We can beat them if we play like we did against Missouri."
Magner looks to counter Baylor's potent scoring attack by moving the ball to the flanks.
"This is an area where we can get at them," he said. "It starts in the middle of the field. If we can get the ball out wide, we can be successful."
Sunday, the Jayhawks continue conference play with a home match against Texas Tech (3-21).
"Texas Tech has a great win over Maryland, Magner said. "They have shown they can score goals. We don't want a 4-3 game. The lower the score, the better it will be for us."
While this weekend will open
conference play for Baylor and Texas Tech, the Jayhawks have a slight edge against both teams. Kansas already has won its first conference game, a 1-0 victory against Missouri Sept. 8. One or two victories this weekend could
YELLOWSTONE
nudge the Jayhawks closer to the Big 12 tournament in San Antonio.
Korpi: Says early conference wins would be ideal.
While both games this weekend are home matches, neither game will be played at Super Target Field. The games have been moved to the intramural field south of Watkins Memorial Health Center. Information about this weekend's venues can be obtained at the Kansas soccer office at 864-3556.
Iowa recruit expected to choose Kansas
Lawrence final stop on recruiting circuit
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Kansas could fill its final scholarship spot for next year this weekend, if Iowa prep star Kirk Hinrich follows in the footsteps of the previous two recruits who made official visits to Lawrence.
Hinrich, a 6-foot-3-inch point guard from West High School in Sioux City, Iowa, will make Lawrence his final official recruiting visit this weekend. Hinrich has narrowed his choices to Kansas and Oklahoma. Jim Hinrich, Kirk's father and high school coach, said that he would be pleased if Kirk ended up at either Kansas or Oklahoma.
"We'd love to see him go to Kansas," Jim Hininch said. "We'd be happy if he went to Oklahoma as well. Both of those programs are excellent programs."
Recruiting analyst Greg Swaim of Midwest Basketball, a recruiting information service, said that he thought Kirk Hinrich was leaning toward Kansas.
"Kirk Hinrich will go ahead and commit to Kansas," he said. "And if he does, that would give Kansas a top five recruiting class."
Hinrich's sister, Jill, attends Kansas and calls Kirk two or three times a week with a sales pitch, Jim Hinrich said.
Nick Collision, who gave Kansas a verbal commitment a few weeks ago, has played AAU basketball in Iowa with Hinrich, and the two are good friends.
Jim Hinrich said Collison, a 6-foot-9 inch forward from Iowa Falls, Iowa, could have some influence in where Kirk decides to play.
"He could have a little something to do with his decision," Jim Hinrich said. "They're good friends. It would be nice to have somebody who's very supportive his first year away and who he knows already."
Hinrich averaged 18.3 points a game, shot 61 percent from the floor, 47 percent from three-point range and 87 percent from the free throw line last year at West High School.
Jim Hinrich said that Kirk would fit into the Kansas basketball program quite well.
"He's a very skilled player," Jim Hinrich said. "I'm sure he'll have an opportunity to play, as
hard as they've recruited him."
Hinrich had given Iowa State a verbal commitment before his junior year. But after former head coach Tim Floyd left to become the head coach of the Chicago Bulls, Hinrich retracted his commitment.
Kansas' ensuing recruitment came as a pleasant surprise to his parents.
"It's been very surprising," Jim Hinrick said. "We've been very glad that a school of that stature has been pursuing him."
Jim Hinrich said that he hoped Kirk would discuss his final decision with his parents before announcing his plans. Jim Hinrich also said that he hoped a decision would come soon, and definitely before the early signing date of Nov. 11, so they could have a semi-normal year.

Injured players return to softball team
By Chris Hopkins Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team will face more nasty weather and its first Division I competition this weekend.
The Jayhawks will face Missouri, Nebraska, Oklahoma State and will get a rematch against UMKC if the weather holds up.
Thunderstorms are predicted for today and tomorrow and showers for Sunday. The games will be played at Adair Park in Kansas City, Mo.
The Jayhawks went 4-2 in last weekend's tournament, but coach Tracy Bunge saw some things she wanted to work on.
"We need to pick up the intensity level, we need to pick up the focus."
Bunge also said that she has addressed all of the problems from the last tournament this past week, including problems with bunting, defensive communication and scoring base runners.
she said to her team on Thursday.
Some of the new players were probably uptight last weekend Bunge said, but she expected them to be more relaxed for this tournament.
Assistant Coach Maria Looper said that she was mostly content with her pitching staff, although they had work left to do as well.
"We need to get a little more consistent biting our nose." Longer said.
Softball
One bonus for the Jayhawks is the regained use of some of their injured players.
who pitched for the first time in nine months last week, should be able to shore up a somewhat thin pitching staff by contributing another 2-to-3 inning outing.
Senior pitcher Sarah Workman,
Sophomore third baseman Heather Chambers, who sat out last weekend because of a hand injury, will probably be able to share third base duties with freshman Megan Urhouh.
One intriguing matchup in the tournament will be against Mis-
sourl. Bunge said that the Tiger's situation a year ago was very similar to the situation Kansas finds itself in this season.
"They're very solid defensively, they have some good speed," Bunge said.
Bunge will be relying on continued production from junior first baseman Shannon Stanwix, who leads the team in batting average, slugging percentage and walks, with marks of .474,.737 and four respectively.
Bunge also said she thought that the game against Oklahoma State would be a challenge because the Cowboys went to the College World series last year.
"I'll be happy if we come home 3-2," she said.
Cowboys want upset in neutral territory
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska defensive end Chad S靶says put opposing quarterbacks into two categories. There are some the Cornhusners expect to swarm and others who are harder to catch.
Kelsay said Oklahoma State's Tony Lindsay is one of the latter.
"It puts a lot more pressure on our front four to keep him in the pocket, to keep him contained," Kelsay said. "A quarterback like that is so dangerous because he can get outside and make things happen."
Second-ranked Nebraska (4-0) opens B12 play tomorrow at neutral-field Kansas City against the Cowboys (2-1).
The game, originally scheduled for Stillwater, was moved to 80,000-seat Arrowhead Stadium so Oklahoma State could reap a $1.3 million profit. While the Cowboys are official the home team, more than 50,000 tickets have been sold to Nebraska fans.
largely on Lindsay, last season's Big 12 freshman of the year.
The Cornhuskers are favored by four touchdowns, and Oklahoma State's hopes for the upset rest
Lindsay has modest numbers, averaging 57 rushing yards and 119.3 passing per game. But with running backs Nathan Simmons (79.7 rushing yards per game) and Jamal Fobbs (70 yards per game), he's part of a triple threat.
"Their line is very physical. They can control the ball on you," Nebraska coach Frank Solich said. "We need to control the run because we know they will run the ball at us."
Then it's up to Nebraska's defensive front to make sure Lindsay doesn't break from the pocket for a big play.
Although the Huskers dominated then-No. 9 Washington in last weekend's 55-7 victory, coach Simmons said he's more focused on the Cowboys' 42-23 win against then-No. 25 Mississippi. State two weeks ago.
"That's more important to me. That's what I'm hanging my hat on, not the fact they beat Washington 55-to-whatever," Simmons said. "Yeah, it gets your attention, but I can't hang my hat on that."
Mizzou freshman Smith earns starting defense spot
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Justin Smith came in as Missouri's most highly touted freshmen defensive player in years, and he hasn't disappointed.
The 6-5, 255-pounder from Jefferson City, Mo., was named starting defensive end two weeks into summer drills, an uncommon honor for a freshman.
"It was hard at all to make him a starter right away," coach Larry Smith said. "If you've got talent, use it. And he has first-string talent."
Smith's play has helped Missouri (2-1) rise to N. 23 in the AP poll. The Tigers play Northwestern State, the No. 7 team in Division I-AA, tomorrow at Faurot Field.
Smith has stood out since game one against Bowling Green, when he had four tackles. He followed that performance with six solo and eight total tackles against Kansas. No. 1 Ohio State failed to
faze him either, as Smith was on six stops. This week, Sports Illustrated listed Smith as one of the nation's top 10 true freshmen.
"I just try to get to the ball," Smith said. "I feel like I have a good nose for it."
Smith's speed and size make that an easier proposition. Yet Larry Smith said he was not immune to youthful mistakes.
"He's been able to survive on his pure talent and aggressiveness," Larry Smith said. "He makes plays, but he makes a ton of mistakes. The big thing he's got to do is he needs maturity at the position. He makes a lot of plays now on pure ability." Justin Smith said. "You can get
Smith's decision to come to Missouri continued a family tradition. One of his grandfathers attended the university, as did an aunt and both of his parents. Smith's older sister, Sarah, is a student at Missouri.

A Night at the Roxbury's comedy duo not ready for big night on the town

Kansan movie critic
Class, repeat after me;
1974
TV humor does not work in movies.
Though it barely makes it to the 80-minute mark, A Night at the Roxbury seems to drag on longer than even the most overdone Kevin Costner movie.
The film is based on a popular Saturday Night Live skit about two club-hopping losers, played by show regulars Will Ferrell and Chris Kattan. Dressed in metallic suits, black T-shirts and gold chains, these guys cruise the L.A. club scene armed with their dad's BMW and a crop of 20-year-old pick-up lines.
This works fine on the small screen because each skirt rarely exceeds the length of a two-minute segment. If the material sucks, so be it; you just grab the remote, and no one gets hurt.
But watching this drek on a 20-foot screen and in THX sound is nothing less than torture. *Roxbury* boasts SNL cast members, out-to-pasture TV stars and a flood of pounding dance music, but it forrests the laughs.
No kidding. The audience sat stonefaced at a recent screening for as long as five minutes at a time
With their sculpted sideburns, brothers Steve (Ferrell) and Doug Butabi (Kattan) toil in their dad's floral shop by day and groove at the hot clubs every night. That is, they party at any club that doesn't have a guest list.
Steve and Doug trade high-fives for no reason and wow the "hotties" with stories about meeting Emilio Estevez.
One night, Richard Grieco, of 21 Jump Street fame and deity to all young swangers, engages
the Butabis in a round of fender-bending. Eager to avoid a lawsuit, Grieco shepherds the two studs into the posh Roxbury, where Steve works on the nerve to ask his host the burning question.
"So, are you, like, going to meet up with Johnny Depp later?"
A couple of real actors (Chazz Palminterl and Dan Hedaya) pop up every so often, with little or no impact. I suppose we all have to find ways to pay the rent, but this is pathetic.
For the most part, A Night at the Roxbury is a simple point A-to-point B movie, and the audience keeps waiting for Kattan and Ferrell to come up with a punch line. They evidently think that the mere sight of these two trying to pass themselves off as happenin' guys is funny enough. It isn't.

Kent's American debut shows mediocre effort

There is a tradition among all Swedish bands to spit out the quintessential pop song. Take your basic Swedes: Abba, Roxette and The Cardigans, and you will see a distinct pattern. The lyrics are catchy, and the melody bubbles over in a sickeningly sweet froth. It's disgustingly addictive, and it works.

Kent sticks to the prototypical pop formula: a steady one-two beat, a non-existent bass line and a four-minute song full of chorus.

The second track on the album is a prime example of this theory. "If you were only here today," croons lead singer Joakim Berg. But the song has a surprising lack of passion for such a woeful song about lost love.
"Underneath my wristwatch, my skin is white / Underneath my wristwatch, my skin is winter." The music is as empty as the lyric.
There was one song that did stray from this droning effort. "Celsius" actually has a quite lovely violin solo and a rhythmic, yet elementary bass line.
Kent could do itself a favor by taking more chances in their songwriting. "Isola" shows little artistic ability and is a mediocre piece at best.

Reviews
Clay Pigeons good flick for target practice
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansas movie critic
Kansan movie critic
Pardon me, but when did movies about loud,
stundid people suddenly become so popular?
The latest example is Clay Pigeons, a thriller that's big on guns, profanity and slow-talking hicks, but possesses the intellectual prowess of a paper weight.
CLAY PIGEONS
Director David Dobkin stages his noirish pot boiler with the audacity of a guy who's dying to be hailed as the next It Boy. Each scene rolls by on a wave of uncouth characters and foul situations, praying that one has ever seen a Quentin Tarantino flick.
The movie's hero is Clay Bidwell (Joaquim Phoenix), a thick-witted gas station attendant in the hilly, fly-infested town of Mercer, Mont. Life's good for Clay, especially since he began tending to the devil's business with Amanda (Georgina Cates), the wife of his buddy Earl (Gregory Speler).
Kansan rating: *\* out of ******
Running time: 1 hour, 45 minutes
Rated R for cusin', shootin' and deadly women
Earl's a fellow who can't bear to see his woman dalyling with other gents. The two pals go for a round of Budweiser and target shooting, after which Earl promptly does himself in with Clay's pistol. Before plugging himself, Earl explained that he would like to die knowing that his betrayer would suffer for his wrongs.
Clay, mortified by the turn of events, tries to avoid Amanda, but she'd like to move their relationship to the next level. When he disagrees, she responds by blowing away another of Clay's bedding partners.
At the same time, Clay's making friends with Lester "The Molester" Long (Vince Vaughn), a traveling truck driver who wears belt buckles
that could stop a gauge round.
While the two guys are on a fishing trip, a (gasp) dead body bobs to the surface.
The rising stack of bodies in Mercer draws the attention of FBI agent Dale Shelby (Janeane Garofalo), who suspects that a serial killer is on the loose.
The problem with Clay Pigeons is that none of these characters are likable or even the least bit interesting. Clay's naivete and friendship with the clearly deranged Lester makes him hardly the ideal person to care about.
Phoenix's co-stars fare better. Vaughn makes the most of his character's rodeo shirts and awshucks-Ma'am manner, and the result is both amusing and disturbing. Garofalo also gets in some good yukas as the fed who's surrounded by corpse-poking cops.
Film's heavenly potential falls short of deliverance
But the movie itself just trots out the guns and sex, inevitably running its pointless story into the ground.
Williams' acting adds to wimpy plot
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
Maybe it's me, but I think that any movie that depicts hell should make some effort to show the Head Sinner himself.
TITUS
Case in point: What Dreams May Come stars Robin Williams as a recently deceased bloke who journeys into hell to rescue his wife's damned soul. Right away, most folks are going to start dreaming of a catactlysmic battle between Mork and Beelzebub. I can see Don King fighting tooth and nail for the Pay Per View rights.
WHAT DREAMS MAY COME
Instead, director Vincent Ward has patched together yet another big-budget poem about love transcending death. And this one doesn't even have Patrick Swayze in it.
Painting in Crayola colors and hauling out the slow-motion photography, Ward introduces Chris Nielsen (Williams), a newly dead soul who can't separate himself from his living wife, Annie (Annabella Sciorra).
Kansan rating: ★* out of ★★★★
Running time: 2 hours
Rated PG-13 for fuzzy photography
and hellish performances
Chris Nielsen (Robin Williams) travels through hell to save his wife's soul in What Dreams May Come. Contributed Photo
Chris couldn't have entered the realm of the dead at a better time. Four years earlier, his kids had died in a car wreck, putting his wife into a near-suicidal state of mind.
Another fatal accident sends Chris into heaven, and he awakens in a valley of hills, canyons and waterfalls. Chris even gets an afterlife tour guide (Cuba Gooding Jr.).
Meanwhile, the audience has the pleasure of watching Annie scribble in her ear and mope for about 45 minutes of screen time. Finally,
she kills herself.
Ah, but her soul goes to hell because, according to Cuba, suicide is a no-no. So Chris does the gentlymanly thing and ventures down below to rescue his woman.
Director Ward gets some appropriately shocking images out of this section of the film. One that stood out featured Williams crawling across a blackened beach strewn with the decaying bodies of
the damned. But most of hell looks more like a bad neighborhood than the worst place in the universe.
Williams tones down his hyperactive energy for this movie, but rather than engaging us with his sensitivity, his character comes across as more wishy-washy than passionate. Like the rest of the movie, Williams puts in the effort without delivering the goods to the audience.

Never go under with the KU Card
With your KU Card you just can't go wrong. It has special, rounded corners that won't poke or jab. Use it to call home. Use it to eat. Use it to wash your clothes or buy a pop. Whatever you use it for, it's waterproof and it floats so you won't have to worry about ever going under. Because it's NOT a credit card, it's a debit card—there's no interest to pay.
Other safety features include ATM access with your personal identification number, allows only you to have access to your money. And your photo prevents anyone else from using your card at a merchant. Use it on campus or around town like cash but don't worry about having the exact change—the KU Card will take care of it.

Marlin's manager resigns position
Leyland weighing options, looking for new franchise
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Jim Leyland, having seen his World Series championship team broken apart in less than a year, left the Florida Marlins yesterday.
Leyland announced that he would not return as the Marlins' manager next season, using an escape clause that allows him to take a $500,000 buyout if he quits within two weeks after the season.
"From a business standpoint, it didn't quite work out," Leyland said. "I had to determine whether I was willing to go at the pace that new ownership's going to set. I decided that I don't want to do that."
The Marlins had no plans to immediately appoint a successor, general manager Dave Dombrowski said.
Leyland said he revealed his decision Wednesday to his wife and their two children, and informed the Marlins yesterday morning. He had told reporters he wanted to shock the world but his departure had been largely expected.
"When I said major shock in the papers, I think this is a major shock." Leyland said. "Maybe some of you don't. Some of the coaches thought I'd make the decision to stay."
"I wanted to get away from things and make what I thought was the best decision," said Leyland, who led the Marlins to the World Series championship in 1997.
I make the decision to remain with a team that is in ownership limbo coming off a 54-108 season, the worst in the National League since 1969.
Leyland had been mulling his options since the season ended Sunday.
There has been speculation he would become the next manager of the Colorado Rockies, who fired Don
Baylor on Monday. Leyland and Rockies owner Jerry McMorris are good friends, and the Rockies have been awaiting permission from the Marlins to interview Leyland.
"I've talked to nobody about a contract, but I've got a feel for what's out there," Leyland said. "Nobody has offered me anything. I've had people inquire. What are you going to do? But has any anybody sat down and said. We'd like to offer you a contract? Absolutely not."
Millionaire commodities trader John Henry hopes to complete his $150 million purchase of the team next week, but he has feuded publicly with owner H. Wayne Huhenga during negotiations, raising doubts as to whether they would reach a deal.
MARLONDADE
MARTIAL ARTS
If Henry completes the purchase of the 6-year-old franchise
he faces the challenge of lobbying for a new stadium.
Dombrowski, meanwhile, must find a manager willing to work with a young roster — the Marlins played 27 rookies in 1998 — not expected to contend for a few years.
"You have to be realistic about your situation," said Dombrowski, who agreed last month to a $5 million contract that would keep him in South Florida for the next five years.
"We're a young club that's growing," he said. "Some managers are better with young talent, some are better with veteran talent. Nobody knows what our timetable is right now."
The leading candidate to become the Marlins' fourth manager appears to be its second manager. John Boles, Florida's vice president for player development, finished out the 1996 season after Rene Lachemann was fired.
---
Boles is familiar with Florida's youth brigade and well respected for his work with young players. Fredi Gonzalez, who managed this year at Florida's Triple-A Charlotte affiliate, also has been mentioned as a candidate.

Calendar must pass Regents, Legislature
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Even if University of Kansas governance approves a new school-year calendar including a fall break and intersession period, it may be met with opposition at the state level.
At least one member of the Kansas Board of Regents, which would have to approve any calendar changes, said that the changes might get a bad public reception.
Phyllis Nolan, Regents member, said that the University's drive to implement the calendar changes seemed like faculty and students wanted more time off from school.
A fall break, if approved by University Governance, would have a two-day break in October by shortening the final-exam periods; intersession would extend winter break for short study abroad trips and research classes. The Calendar Committee is working on the details.
"I think the general public's feeling on this would be one of less time in school," Nolan said.
Nolan's primary concern with the calendar proposal is related to the Regents' push to increase faculty salaries to a level on par with universities across the nation.
"Right now, we are trying to get the Legislature to approve the pay increase, but this proposal may not help that," she said.
Bill Tsutsui, chairman of the Calendar Committee, said that any new calendar proposal would not hinder the salary increase and that it would not reduce the number of days in a school year — 150 days plus 10 days for final exams.
The pay increase, which will be discussed by the Legislature beginning in January, would give professors and faculty at Regents' schools a 7 to 8 percent increase for three consecutive years.
"Hopefully, when we get a final calendar proposal, it will show everyone that it is beneficial to students and faculty." Tsutsui said. "It is important to get a proposal that we can defend well to the University community and the Regents."
Nolan said that she also was concerned that a fall break would interrupt the flow of the semester.
Provost David Shulenburger, who first recommended the intersession idea, said that the University's final proposal should address all the Regents' concerns.
"If fall break started on a Thursday, how many students would take off on Tuesday?" Nolan said.
address in the registry." "Phyllis Nolan is a wonderful regent. She is just giving a caution," Shulenburger said.
Rep. David Adkins of Leawood said that issue was not only a matter of giving students an added break.
"We would have to ask if the breaks add value to their education and increase costs to students." he said.
depts, he said. Adkins said that although the idea of a fall break and an intersession sounded like a good idea, students and faculty would have to persuade the Regents.
"There is no need for the Legislature to micro-manage the Regents decisions," he said. "If the Regents adopted this as a priority, I would not be one to second-guess them."
Storms hit hard in Lawrence area
But, Adkins said, the Legislature as a whole has tended to second-guess state agencies more than in previous years.
Violent weather brings hail, floods
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Students try to study yesterday had to compete with Mother Nature herself.
compete with Storms caused the fire alarm to go off at Watson Library about 7:30 p.m., forcing students to evacuate the building. The power also was knocked out at Learned Hall around 11 a.m., leaving students in the dark for more than five minutes.
Sgt. Gayle Reece of the KU Public Safety Office said that the power of the storm caused alarms to go off yesterday evening in Watson Library, the Spencer Art Museum, the Baehr Audio-Reader Center and Dolph Simons Biosciences Research Laboratories on West Campus.
"It's the lightning. That much power sometimes causes the alarms in the buildings to activate." Reece said.
George Norton, manager of public information for Kansas Power and Light, said that 500 customers in Lawrence lost power from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m.
Norton said that most of the outages were in the perimeter of West 15th Street and West
Sixth Street, between Iowa Street and Kasold Avenue. He also said that more than half of Kansas Power and Light's customers had their power back by 9:30 p.m.
Eric Renner, meteorologist for KTKA News Source 49 in Topeka, said that the Doppler Radar system estimated rain totals for Douglas County at 5 to 7 inches at 10:45 p.m. Lawrence Memorial Airport showed 4.53 inches at 9 p.m. One-inch hall also was reported in and around Lawrence, Renner said.
Reece said that besides responding to alarms, KU police also were busy responding to calls for stalled cars. Streets were closed all across the county because of flooding. Reece said.
With violent weather pounding Lawrence most of the day, students had a hard time finding an easy environment in which to study.
After more than five minutes of darkness, the power came back on, just to be knocked out a few minutes later.
Janel Harting, Wichita senior, was in Learned yesterday morning when the power went out.
"It was pitch-black in there," she said. "We were in the computer lab, and there were no emergency lights and no windows. After the second time I just went home."
Casey McLiney, Overland Park freshman,
lost his paper when the power went off at Watson.
Anna Attkisson, Watson circulation desk student supervisor, said that students waited in the lobby for the fire department to come, and then they were evacuated.
"I was almost done, and now I've learned the hard way to save often," McLiney said.
"We also smelled what we thought was gas, but we're not fed natural gas, we're fed steam,
so we still don't know what was going on there," she said.
The National Weather Service in Topeka is forecasting that storms will continue this morning.

She performed in front of the sold out crowd that rose to its feet once the musician took the stage.
University of Kansas students attending the concert said they admired DiFranco because she was different from mainstream pop artists.
"We have a couple of new tracks to try out on all you sonic guinea pigs out there." DiFranco said at the beginning of her set.
"She's so true to herself," said
Kelli Graves, Overland Park junior.
"She doesn't have to sell to anybody. She has the final say in what she does."
Almas Sayeed, Wichita sophmore, said she could relate to DIFranco because of the social and political issues she supports.
The independent musician often has spoken about issues such as abortion and equality for women, both in her lyrics and to the media.
"We're drawn to Ani because she's uncompromising." Sayeed said. "We're drawn to her strength. I try to do that for myself in terms of raising awareness and social consciousness."

Seven bars busted for serving minors
By Augustus Anthony Piazza

Kansan staff writer
At least one local bar owner took measures this weekend to prevent underage drinking after receiving citations last week from the Alcoholic Beverage Control.
Control.
Kaelif Agu, owner of Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, said that he met with his crew to discuss possible measures that could be taken to prevent minors possessing or consuming alcohol to get in the bar.
"We identified weaknesses in our system, and we are targeting how to do something about it." Aguil said.
Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St., was one of seven bars that received one first-offense citation from ABC, the agency responsible for monitoring 2,000 state-licensed bars and liquor stores.
The six other bars that received citations were Bleachers Sports Bar. 806 W. 24th St. The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.; Brown Bear Brewery, 728 Massachusetts St.; Fatso's, 1016 Massachusetts St.; Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St.; and Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St.
All the offenses took place in August when ABC officials checked the compliance.
It was the first offense for each of the Lawrence establishments since the new policy went into effect on July 1. The first offense is one weekday suspension or ABC alcohol-enforcement training. The bars have 15 days to appeal the citation.

Sheila Walker, public information officer for the ABC, said that if the bars didn't appeal, Oct. 26 would be the day for the license suspension or training.
Aqul said that he didn't know whether he would appeal because he was not notified of the offense before last week's citation. He was also unsure about what exactly happened on the night the ABC checked his establishment.

Jerry Neverve, owner of Red Lyon Tavern, said that he had not decided whether he would appeal the citation.
"I just got my letter in the mail," he said. "I have called ABC to see what the deal was. There were some circumstances about that night that I want to discuss before I make my decision."
Neverve said that he didn't make any changes monitoring IDs this weekend.
Paul Hayward, manager of Fatso's, said that he thought the owner would appeal the citation.
The owners of the four other bars were unavailable for comment.
Lawrence bars weren't the only ones to be cited by ABC. Three bars and one liquor store in Manhattan also received citations last week.
Walker said that ABC officials could be back in the near future to do compliance checks in local bars

Three alumni recognized for service to University
Three alumni received the Kansas Alumni Association's Fred Ellsworth Medallion on Friday. The medallion is awarded for unique and significant service to the University in memory of Fred Ellsworth, a former executive secretary of the association.
Dana Anderson, Richard Cummings and Frank Sabatini were honored at a dinner with the association's board of directors in the Adams Alumni Center.
Anderson, a 1959 graduate, is the vice chairman of MaceRich Co., which owns and manages a nationwide chain of shopping centers. He is the alumni association's representative to the KU Athletics Corporation Board.
Cummings was the national chairman of the alumni association from 1995 to 1996. He graduated from the University in 1954 and from the University of Kansas Medical Center in 1957. He practices otology at the Wichita Ear Clinic.
Sabatini graduated from the University in 1955 and the school of law in 1957. He is chairman and president of Capital City Bank and Trust in Topeka. He lettered in football from 1951 to
1953 and has dedicated a fund at the KU Endowment Association to provide law scholarships to football lettermen.
Board of Regents picks Wichita State president
The Kansas Board of Regents chose Donald Beggs as the 12th president of Wichita State University on Saturday, said Barb Conant, Regents director of communications.
Beggs will begin Jan. 1, following Eugene Hughe's retirement in December. Beggs starting salary will be $152,678 per year plus expenses.
Beggs was selected after an eight-month search. Three finalists spent three days last week at the Wichita campus, where they were interviewed by students, alumni and Regents.
The search committee originally had narrowed the pool of candidates to four. One candidate, Judy Hample, senior vice president for academic affairs at the University of Toledo, Ohio, accepted a job with Florida Board of Regents and withdrew her name. The other candidates were Joel Anderson, provost and vice chancellor for academic affairs at the University of Arkansas, and Nicholas Henry, former president of Georgia Southern University in Statesboro.
Beggs had been chancellor at Southern Illinois University in Carbondale since 1996. He also had served Southern Illinois as dean from 1981 to 1996 and assistant vice chancellor for academic affairs from 1975 to 1976. He began at Southern Illinois in 1969 as an associate professor of educational measurements and statistics.

Teller's closes for day as dirty dishes pile up
A broken dishwasher forced a local restaurant to shut its doors and turn away customers Saturday night, causing it to lose thousands of dollars.
Employees of Teller's, 742 Mass. St., closed the restaurant at 3 p.m., after dirty dishes began to pile up. The dishwasher had broken down earlier that day.
Heldi McDonald, supervisor, estimated that the restaurant lost about $10,000.
"We lost a lot of business because it was probably going to be the busiest day of the year because of Parents' Weekend," she said.
McDonald said the restaurant was full at 3 p.m. when it stopped letting people in. It was empty by 5 p.m.

About 700 people attend football tailgate party
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Hundreds of University of Kansas students and their families chose to eat lunch outside Saturday, despite the chilly temperatures and misty conditions.
Heidi Schrandt, graduate assistant of the Office of New Student Orientation, estimated that of the 734 people who preregistered for the first Parents' Weekend tailgate party before the football game, only 34 people opted to eat somewhere else. The families prepaid $5 a person for the lunch. The office collected $3,670.
Schrandt divided her time among watching the efficiency of the food-serving lines, checking in parents and watching the sky for rain.
"It was perfect football weather," she said. "It was a little bit chilly and a little bit dew from earlier this week, and the rain held off for us."
The families did get a bit of shelter from the weather under a tent that had been set up for them at the bottom of Campanile Hill. Schrandt said the office also wanted to give the families front-
"We decided to come to the tailgate instead of going downtown because we wanted to get enthused for the game and see the band and the Baby Jay," said Jessica Fishback, St. Louis freshman. "My parents have never been to a college or professional football game before."
row seats for KU traditions, including the football team and KU marching band's march down the hill into the stadium.
At least one family was confused by the word "tailgate" and expected more of a cook-out than sandwiches, and suggested that as an improvement for future parties.
"We thought there would be somebody grilling hamburgers and hot dogs," said Mike Worthy, father of Olathe freshman Jacqueline Worthy.
Schrandt said the office planned to make the tailgate party an annual event, and the office was busy learning what the parents and students wanted to change for next year.
"As this gets bigger, we definitely would want it to be a hamburger, hot dog and potato salad kind of day," she said.
Natural History Museum receives $2 million grant
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
For the first time, natural history museums across the world can share knowledge, some of it 300 years old, through the information superhighway.
Last week, the University of Kansas Natural History Museum and Biodiversity Research Center was awarded a $2 million grant that will be distributed during a three-year period from the National Science Foundation that would allow the museum to create software for the compilation of biological information across the world.
Processing the data will help to understand diseases, predict and possibly prevent certain diseases from occurring, and prevent ecosystems from disappearing off the face of the earth, said Leonard Krishtalka, museum director and project co-principal investigator.
No such software now exists.
This project will help scientists and researchers correlate natural history museum data with environmental data
such as climate, soil type and terrain type, said James Beach, assistant director of informatics at the museum and project co-principal investigator.
Researchers and scientists will be able to predict with this software what environmental conditions can allow for which type of species, and what could happen to species in different environments. Beach said.
For example, if scientists wanted to know which species would die if the temperature rose by one or two degrees, it would be possible to collect from all the data in the world and get a peep into the survival history of birds that have had to contend with temperature increases Beach said.
The project will use both traditional Internet and Internet 2, Beach said.
The grant was awarded by NSF's Knowledge and Distributed Intelligence Initiative. The museum competed with more than 700 applicants, Krishtalka said.
He said the data could help humankind.
"Animals are vectors of disease. We can track diseases they carry and predict where they are likely to occur," he said. "That can help us collect data on the paths of emerging diseases."
The data could also help save rain forests.
Krishtalka said by measuring how many species need to be extinct before rain forests collapse and comparing it to information on existing species, important predictions can be made on the future of a beleaguered rain forest.
Some of the University's partners in this project are the universities of New Mexico, California-Berkeley, CaliforniaSan Diego and the U.S. Geological Survey.
Krishtalka said this project would only be a first step to global integration of biological data.
"At the moment, only 5 percent of the 300-year-old data is accessible because it is actually digitized," he said. "Gaining access to the remaining 95 percent will take much longer."
University recruits minorities at expo
Bv Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Colleges and universities gave their best pitches last night at College Expo '98 in an effort to attract minority students to their schools.
The expo, which was organized by the University of Kansas minority affairs office, was held in the Student Center of the University of Kansas Medical Center. About 100 students and their family members attended.
Robert Page Jr., assistant director of admissions, said this expo was unique because it was planned for high-ability African-American and Hispanic students throughout Kansas City.
competed with the expo.
Although anyone was welcome to attend, Page said invitations were sent to 1,800 students who had achieved a 3.5 or higher grade point average.
Page said that he was pleased with the event, but turnout was lower than expected because the Kansas City Chiefs game was moved to a time that
Thirty-eight colleges from throughout the Midwest sent admissions representatives to display information at the expo.
Lorraine Tolbert, a KU admissions counselor, said students asked about scholarships and application information.
Tolbert said the University made an ongoing effort to recruit minorities, including arranging days for minority high school seniors to visit campus and spend the night.
Sheila Hatcher attended the expo to get information for her son Marcus, a Blue Springs, Mo., resident.
Hatcher said as a parent she was most concerned with the financial aspects of college, so she talked to the KU representatives about the University's reciprocal agreements with Missouri residents.
Dione Greene, Kansas City, Mo., resident, said he was considering four colleges. He came to find out about the programs that schools had to offer, in addition to financial aid information.
The expo offered those who attended the opportunity to attend four educational sessions addressing topics from application procedures to getting involved at college.
The School of Nursing set up a display apart from the general KU exhibit to highlight its program. Minority nurses represented the department and gave complimentary blood pressure readings.
Elizabeth Lounds, a clinical instructor from the school, said it was important for minority students to see other minorities as registered nurses and higher positions in medicine.
Lounds said she was one of four black students in a nursing class of 106 when she attended the University. She wants to help increase that number by promoting KU nursing's high national ranking, urban location and good reputation.
"It's the best program in the area for the money." Lounds said.

Lack of campus lighting, especially in parking lots, facilitates crimes
The University of Kansas should continue to consider lighting a serious priority on campus despite recent improvements.
Already, the University has spent $2.5 million during the past 10 years to add lights and renovate existing ones on campus. Much of this money has come from a $2 student fee each semester that was started in fall 1992.
According to Greg Wade, landscape architect and member of the lighting board, each lighting structure costs between $3,500 to $4,000; $2.5 million will provide quite a bit of light.
The University campus, however, spans a significant amount of land, and the lighting problem is far from solved. Poor lighting in parking lots, for example, plays a significant part
The problem persists despite the University's dedication to solving the problem.
in the abundance of damage and theft done to cars on campus. Last week, the amount of damage to cars reported to the KU Public Safety Office was nearly $10,000 — enough money to buy two or three new light poles.
take before something is done to improve the security of residence hall parking lots?
Much of this damage occurred in residence hall parking lots, where lighting is inadequate. If these lots had better lighting, the perpetrators of these crimes may have been deterred. How much money in damage to cars and stolen property will it
Safety is another key issue. Although the number of violent crimes at the University is usually low, many students have reason to be fearful when walking on campus at night. Lighting near campus roads tends to be sufficient, but for the most part, areas between the roads remain in the dark.
The University deserves congratulations for recognizing the problem and dedicating up to $2.5 million to improve the lighting situation. At the same time, it is vital that we continue to lobby for needed improvements, additions and the University's continued support.

Alcohol survey will come up dry
Last week, the Alcohol Task Force surveyed students about how much they drink and where they drink, along with other alcohol-related questions.
The task force chose the right time to give the surveys out, but they are not asking the right questions.
One of the questions the survey asks is which area bars knowingly let underage students drink. This question is sure to get several different responses. Some underage students will think of the bars that let them drink, and intentionally not list them to protect those establishments from an investigation. Other, more vengeful underage students, will list the names of establishments that deny them entrance.
One question asked that students identify bars where underage people drink.
Most likely, the task force will end up with a list of every bar in Lawrence, regardless of which bars actually serve underage drinkers.
The task force also is likely to draw another astounding conclusion from the survey: bars are not the only places underage students drink. Area house parties have no authorities present, unless the Lawrence police show up, so most students really are not restricted from drinking. Even the residence halls on our "alcohol-
free" campus are commonly known to be far from dry.
The task force's survey will not be truly successful until it speaks the same language as those being surveyed. The survey's definition of binge drinking — five drinks for men and four for women in a night — is a normal night out on the town for many college students.
To the task force's credit, they did wait until the best time to perform their inquiry. Had they given the survey at the beginning of the year, the new students they questioned would not have had the exposure to college life that they now have.
Still, if the group expects to get more useful results from a survey, they must first give a more useful survey.

Alternate tour guide dishes the dirt on KU
Campus tours are invading. High school students wearing name tags and clutching plastic KU bags containing numerous KU booklets follow back
ward-walking tour guides down Jayhawk Boulevard. They hear about historic buildings, campus legends, KU traditions and lots of other good stuff.

I remember taking that little walk of discovery a couple of years ago. Looking back, I realize that some things worth knowing were left out of the commentary. I don't think I would qualify to give campus tours, but if I could take some high
schoolers for a little KU journey, I would offer them some of the practical knowledge they'd need to get acquainted with the Jayhawk way of life.
I'd start them out in the Kansas Union Bookstore. This pile of books is what you'll need for one lousy semester. Ignore the publisher's suggested retail value — the price you pay is on the sticker. Chances are, it's higher, even for a used book. Now, let's ring them all up for $434.27. Not to worry, my friends. At the end of the semester, you can trade them back in for $25, and, later that night, throw it all away on an after-finals party.
would be the nature of history museums. Despite the fact that these stuffed and mounted animals are crumbling apart in dilapidated display cases, we still can see real wildlife up close. If you look carefully, you actually can see that a rat has built a nest in the walrus' chest cavity.
For a fun little diversion, our next stop would be the Natural History Museum.
We would then take a trip across the street to Fraser Hall: symbol of KU and familiar part of the Lawrence horizon. Everyone into the elevator.
Back across the street to Strong Hall. By the time you've finished signing up for classes and your inevitable add/ dropping, you'll know this building like your own backyard. Be prepared to stand in line for an eternity. Bring a book and a chair and possibly some drinking water and field rations.
The University insisted that these old elevators be upgraded. Now, we still have crappy elevators, but at least they're the original! Such is the KU way: always preserving tradition, often at the cost of common sense.
Up next, there's Wescoe Hall. No, that's not fog. That's a cloud of cigarette smoke that constantly hovers around the building. If you're hungry, there's a food court downstairs, but don't be surprised if you pay $5 for a small lunch. The place smells like the bottom of a garbage can. Bon appetite!
Oward to Watson Library, a second home to the studious Jayhawk. Get used to spending some time here when you're researching term papers. Just remember to use the buddy system when using the stacks in the evening. We have a few masturbator who have made their home there. Oh, it's nothing to worry about. The masturbatorus pernicticus is a friendly, nocturnal creature who only wants to flash young women as part of its self-mating ritual.
Now to the sparkling and almost new Budig Hall: big auditoriums; cool, hightech display systems; bring your binoculars if you want to see your professor.
Finally, we visit Snow Hall. You'll probably have a math class or two here.
Thanks for touring with me. I hope to see all of you here next year! Perhaps we'll meet on opposite sides of the abortion protest, or maybe I'll see you passed out, drunk on the residence hall bathroom floor. In any case, thanks for visiting the University!

Spoiled players abusing athletics program chances
Frankly, I am sick to death of spoiled brat bad-boy professional athletes and their inexcusable behavior. Skill and knowledge recording some ball/muck/whatever does
It's time someone stood up and took the moral high ground. It seems patently wrong to me that Jacque Vaughn and June Henley should end up in basically the same position.
Meredith

not, in my mind, give someone license to behave like an overgrown 6-year-old with an unlimited allowance.
A. L. MAYER
The change should begin at the college level. Universities have always required certain standards of behavior from students, so it's only logical that the student-athletes be held to minimum standards of behavior as well.
While at the University,
Jacque Vaughn was not only an excellent basketball player, but also, and more important, an excellent example of a student and a man. I wish him much luck in his career. He earned it.
June Henley, on the other hand, behaved like an irresponsible brat, not to mention that he's no kind of man I'd care to know. Yet he also was drafted to a pro team. He may have been a great football player at the University, but driving under the influence of alcohol is nothing to be rewarded.
Someone who receives a Pell grant can have it taken away if they are found to use illegal drugs, and the full Pell doesn't even pay for half of 12 credit hours of out-of-state tuition.
Yet some of these athletes with full-ride scholarships get arrested for drugs, violence, drunk driving, underage drinking and just about anything else you can imagine, and they lose nothing. To get a free tutor for one subject, I or any other non-athlete student must prove financial need, disability, first-generation college status and academic need. You have to apply long before the actual class begins, and then you're still not guaranteed a tutor.
The athletes get free tutors for every subject, a computer lab with copious amounts of help
If they graduate, then they can make payments with no interest, just a fee that covers the handling of the account. If they don't graduate, then it should be like an unsubsidized loan, one that accrues interest immediately. This way, the child doesn't lose out, and the athlete is again encouraged to graduate. Every semester, the student-athletes should be sent a statement showing how much has been spent on their education so they will be reminded of the financial cost of messing up.
I propose making the athletes accountable for their behavior. I say that if they don't graduate from some university within eight years of first enrolling, they be required to pay back every dime spent on their education, including housing and tutors, as if it were a loan.
For those who become millionaire pro-ball players, the cost of their college years may be pocket change, but few make it to the pros, and fewer still make millions. So maybe these guys will pick up on the fact that their odds are better if they finish college. Then maybe we can make sure our athletics program is a point of pride rather than a circus of shame.
However, in the case of injury, the school should continue to give them a tuition scholarship and loans or grants for costs such as housing and books for the remainder of their four-year period. As long as they graduate within eight years, they don't have to pay any of the tuition back.
Teenjies is a Kansas City, Kan., senior majoring in history and psychology.
In the case of child support, the NCAA now allows student-athletes to work, (which I disagree with) so the athletes can earn the money they need. Instead, the NCAA should make them focus on their studies and either the school or the NCAA should pay child support for the duration of the athletes' college careers.
Feedback
If they get into trouble with the law, they are to be given one chance and one chance only. If there is a second incident, they should be cut from the team and all the money that has been paid for their education up to that point should become a student loan.

Kansan Write-A-Thon coverage was lacking
As members of Environs who participated in the Concerned, Aware, and Active Students (CAAS) Write-A-Thon last Tuesday, we were disappointed in the Kansan's coverage of the event. The article failed to report several key details — the organizations participating; CAAS's purpose; and the issues students wrote about.
Also, the estimate of 25 participants was incorrect. Had the reporter stayed for the entire event, the number would have been twice that.
CAAS is a part of the Center for Community Outreach, and its purpose is to educate students about social issues and encourage citizen involvement. The Write-A-Thon activity broadened individuals' understanding of issues, such as human rights, public transportation, children's welfare
and animal rights. The event provided an opportunity for learning outside of the classroom, and students were encouraged to become active participants social debate. At a time when students aren't exercising their voting rights, events like this one inspire more active participation.

Vegetarians celebrate animal day
Small towns often offer few choices for meatless food
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Members of the KU Proponents of Animal Liberation donned aprons and fed Lawrence residents free vegetarian food Friday and Saturday downtown as part of World Farm Animal Day.
The date commemorates vegetarianism advocate Mahatma Gandhi's Oct. 2 birthday.
Eating meat is morally and ecologically harmful, and it increases the risk of certain diseases, said Karl Hardy, San Antonio, Texas sophomore and member of PAL.
"The animal waste being dumped from corporate hog farms in Western Kansas is polluting the water supply of the region," said Hardy, who has been a vegetarian for three and a half years.
About eight members of the student group flipped almost 150 veggie burgers and hotdogs, and tofu tempeh, which had been donated by the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi, a grocery store that sells health food.
Even though people may be
aware of the benefits of a vegetarian diet, the transition is not always easy.
Unlike Hardy, who said he didn't miss the meals with meat that he grew up eating, Pilroska Pinter, Hungarian graduate student, said vegetarianism became boring after five years of a meatless diet.
"I began to miss meat," she said. "I was afraid I was not eating well."
According to the American Dietetic Association, vegetarianism is healthy, but meals must contain calories, proteins, iron and vitamins in the right proportions.
Nancy O'Connor, Community Mercantile's nutrition educator, cautioned students to avoid vegetarian convenience foods if they wanted to save money.
The association advises vegetarians to use oils and fats sparingly and supplement vegan diets with Vitamin B12, which is found only in animal foods.
"Buy in bulk; eat rice, beans and vegetables in season," she said. "Vegetarians have to be willing to cook and be intelligent shoppers."
Many vegetarians in Lawrence find the town hospitable to their needs but most realize that small towns are not the best places to find non-meat options.
The vegetarian food pyramid
milk, yogurt cheese and fortified alternatives 2-3 servings
fats, oils and sweets eat sparingly
beans, nuts and meat alternatives 2-3 servings
vegetables 3-5 servings
fruits 2-4 servings
whole grains, cereals breads, rice and pasta 6-11 servings
jason Bavajas/KANSAN
Mark Bradshaw, Walnut junior, who turned vegetarian while in high school, said he grew up in a small rural community. A high school paper on the health effects of meat and animal-raising practices turned him away from eating meat. His family supported his decision after a little convincing.
Realizing that vegetarian alternatives in a small town were not readily available, he read several books on vegetarian options, many of which required him to cook.
"There are not a lot of places you can go out to eat." Bradshaw said. "And you have to do some cooking."

Lynn, member of the Humane Society of the USA, was co-defendant with Oprah Winfrey in the lawsuit filed by Texas cattlemen.
He said that grazing cattle for meat had destroyed one inch of the topsoil in America and that it would take 500 years to replace it.
Thursday, Lyman cited environmental reasons for becoming a vegetarian.
"In America, every year one million people are turning vegetarians," Lyman said. "Even McDonald's is test-marketing a vegetable burger in New York," he said.
On "The Oprah Winfrey Show", Lyman said that cattle, which are herbivores by nature, were being fed meat of other cattle, some of which was infected with the mad-cow disease.
His remark led Winfrey to say that she would never eat a hamburger again, and beef sales declined in the country, prompting Texas cattlemen to file a defamation suit against Winfrey and Lyman.

By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
The annual Watermelon Fest atLambda Chi Alpha fraternity turned into a mud fest yesterday because of rain.
Pieces of watermelon and balls of mud flew from students' hands or rolled down their faces while the events took place.
"I'm so muddy and disgusting," said Alison Hammer, St. Louis sophomore. "I'm covered in mud and watermelon chunks, but it's still fun."
"Things are a little chaotic and everyone is trying to keep the events organized," said Nick Van Deven, festival co-chair and member of Lambda Chi Alpha. "But people are having a blast."
The festival, sponsored by the fraternity and Alpha Delta Pi sorority, included events such as seed spitting, watermelon shot put and relays. About 400 watermelons were used.
Instead of participating in the organized events, many students broke watermelons to have food fights or dove down a makeshift mud slide. The leftover rinds were used as hats.
"I think this is awesome," said Ben Walker; Hutchinson sophomore. "The fact that everyone came and we're playing in the mud and rain with watermelon everywhere is great. Especially since it does go to a good cause."
Van Deven said about 200 people came and 29 teams participated. Each team was made up of six people who
"I think this is awesome. The fact that everyone came and we're playing in the mud and rain with watermelon everywhere is great Especially since it does go to a good cause."

Hutchinson sophomore
had to pay a $60 entry fee.
The festival raised almost $1,000. The money will go toward a mission program in Honduras and will be used to build schools or hire more police officers. Van Deven said their money goes a long way to help people in Honduras.
"We can help them so much more because a dollar is worth more there than it is here," he said.
Van Deven said that he found out about the program, which is run through St. Louis University and maintained by a group of priests, through his national headquarters. The Watermelon Fest is a national event among the nation's Lambda Chi Alpha chapters.
In the past, Lambda Chi Alpha and its co-sponsor have donated all the proceeds to local charities. Van Deven said that he wanted more Greeks to see the value in donating internationally.

Haskell festival honors harvest
SCHOOL OF STUDIO ART
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Lawrence residents celebrated this year's harvest of corn, beans and squash at the second annual Three Sisters Festival at Haskell Indian Nations University Saturday.
The free event, held from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., was sponsored by Haskell and open to the public. The festival included dance and theater performances, children's activities, corn-shucking and hog-calling contests, and booths set up by local artists.
Most of the money earned went to Haskell's Thunderbird Theater group for its upcoming trip to Washington D.C.
Lori Tapahonso, co-organizer of the event, said that the concept of the Three Sisters came from an old farming technique of planting beans, corn and squash together so that they could nourish each other and help each other grow.
She said that although the Three Sisters concept was an Onelda tradition, other tribes gave special significance to at least one of the crops.
"The premise of the whole festival is to honor the harvest," she said. "If you honor that, in essence it will turn around and keep providing for you."
Raven Heavy Runner, president of the KU First Nations Student Association, volunteered at the festival. He said that honoring the harvest was important because it was the sustenance for some tribes that were farmers.
"This is a symbol of the sustaining of a culture," said Heavy Runner, Browning, Mont. senior.
Tapahonso said that festival organizers aimed to create an event that could be appreciated by the whole community. She said that certain crops such as corn were significant in many different countries.
"There are a lot of different cultures up at KU and we wanted to make a festival that everyone could enjoy and everyone could relate to," she said.
Klissa Rueschhoff, a fundraiser and grant writer at the Haskell Foundation, said she was pleased with this year's turnout. She said that there weren't many harvest festivals in this area.
"It's unusual in this part of the country, but we're trying to make this a festival of national recognition," she said.

Polka mass highlights Oktoberfest
Church's annual festival draws 1,200 people earns about $6.000
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
"It's the only time when we get to see some of the older people in town," said Jason Ratzlaff. Buhler senior.
Some University of Kansas students abandoned their usual Saturdaynight hangouts to mingle with community members at the second annual Oktoberfest at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 1229 Vermont St.
Oktoberfest, one of the largest festivals in the world, was first held on Oct.
12, 1810, in Munich, Germany. King Ludwig I created the festival to celebrated his marriage to a Bavarian princess. The celebration became an annual event.
Father Charles Prolifka, of St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, was one of the people responsible for starting the event last year.
Jordan Martens, Buhler sophomore, said that his hometown had a large population of German descendants who also celebrate Oktoberfest, and that he felt this was a way of getting back to his roots.
He said that it was a great way for people to enjoy each other's company and have fun.
In addition to the food, music, dancing and beer drinking, there was also a
polka mass in which the hymns were accompanied by polka music.
"It was Ave Maria, polka style," said Chad Meitner, Hoisington graduate student. "I enjoyed the twist of the music. It gave it a different flavor."
This year's Oktoberfest had an increased attendance and profit. About 1,200 people attended this year, which was 100 more than last year.
Tim Keller, Oktoberfest organizer,
said the festival grossed about $6,000
compared to $5,500 last year.
"As the word gets out, and people have a good time, it gets more popular," Keller said.
Fifty percent of the profits from this year's Oktoberfest goes to the church's school. The rest of the money will finance church activities.

Students to receive help,not judgment from 20 peer tutors

Kansan staff writer
With the opening of the Writers' Roost, a free writing center for students, only a week away, 20 students selected as peer tutors spent the weekend sharpening their skills and their pencils.
The peer tutors will not be writing or editing papers for students. Instead, they will help students complete those tasks themselves, said Michele Eodice, peer tutor coordinator.
"They don't need to think as teachers, but more like a coach," Eodice said. "The strategies are different than what teachers do. Tutors don't judge or evaluate student work. They are effective listeners who pull information from the student through conversation."
The peer tutors spent Friday and Saturday in training sessions about coaching methods, ethics rules and some issues not directly related to writing.
"People will come to us with health problems, personal problems and all kinds of problems," Eodice said. "Part
of your job as a good tutor is to refer them to the right places."
Peer tutor Suki Ranieri, Hampton, Va., graduate student, said writing centers were necessary because of the students' wide range of writing abilities.
"This is important, particularly at an open-admissions university," Ranieri said. "There are so many levels of writers. It is a necessary component."
Eodice said 46 persons applied for the two-semester, paid positions. The 20 finalists were chosen based on their
interests, commitment and responsibility.
"We wanted a balance of undergraduate and graduate students," Edodice said. "This is a pool of tutors who are highly diverse. One of the myths is that only English majors can do this, but we have a range of writing disciplines."
Tutor Ann Meechal, Red Bud, III., doctoral student, said she thought the work would help her as much as it would help other students.

Economic woes hit international students
Overseas financial crisis affecting cash supply
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
With the global economy continuing its recent roller coaster path, some international students at the University of Kansas are expressing anxiety about their economic futures.
Lynne Vanahill, assistant director of International Student Services, said her office had noticed an increase in students seeking assistance this semester. She said some students handled the financial pressures better than others, but that some students were stressed out and concerned.
rhe hardest-hit groups are those from the Far East and Southeast Asia, Vanahill said.
"They have legitimate fears," Vanahill said. "Some of them may only lack one to two semesters to graduate, and they are trying to avoid going home degree-less."
innonesian Student Association and Jakarta, Indonesia, sophomore, said conditions in his country were unstable with rioting and financial troubles. He said students from Indonesia still could get money from their home country, but the devaluation of their currency compared to the dollar made things expensive.
Fabian Dharmawan, president of the
"We're pretty worried," Dharmawan said. "We never know what's going to happen to us or our families."
Lynne Vanahill
Certain foreign groups that had not experienced as much financial difficulty before are starting to hear rumors that worry them.
Brazilian students said they were concerned about their government limiting the amount of money their families could provide to them each month. They thought the government might take action to prevent the flow of money out of Brazil into other markets.
Renato Citelli, Sao Paulo, Brazil, senior, said he had adjusted to the fears by not charging as much on his credit card and by budgeting his money more carefully.
"They have legitimate fears. Some of them may only lack one to two semesters to graduate, and they are trying to avoid going home degree-less."
Assistant director of International Student Services
Diana Victor, Rio de Janeiro. Brazil, junior, said credit cards were a convenient way for international students to make purchases without converting currency. But she said that her Brazilian credit card company now was charging higher interest rates for this convenience.
Citelli said other means of getting money could be even more expensive. He said it could cost as much as $100 to send money via bank wire from Brazil to the United States.
A representative from the Brazilian Embassy in Washington said he had heard the rumors of currency control but that none had been implemented. He said the country is working on a financial stimulus package that would
avoid those restrictions.
A U.S. State Department representative said Brazil set its own policy, and he had not heard of restrictions at this time. He said it is just one of many options a country may use.
Vanahh encouraged international students to let her office know if problems arose. She said the office had many services to assist students. For instance, students can apply for special emergency loans or apply to have credit hour restrictions lowered.
Students also can request that work restrictions be lifted in special circumstances. International students usually are limited to work on campus, Vanahill said.
Early preparation for employment is key to landing internships, jobs
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Sunshine May seem a long way away. But Ann Hartley, associate director for the University Career and Employment Services, said that it was never too early to begin preparing a resume for future employment opportunities and summer internships. Students who are applying for more competitive jobs may want to begin researching companies now.
Summer may seem a long way off.
"Depending on the companies, some may have spring deadlines, and it is important that the students begin preparing their resumes now so that they don't end up missing the deadlines," Hartley said.
Luis Corteguera, assistant professor of history and the graduate placement officer for the history department, said he offered his students three tips when designing a resume.
"students need to design their resume in a way that sells themselves in the best possible way," Corteguera said. "They also need to highlight their areas of specialty and design their resume so that it focuses on the objective of the job they are applying for."
Hartley also offered some resumé tips for students. These included adding previous work experience, leadership roles, activities, volunteer work and computer skills to a resumé. Hartley said that she suggested students keep their resumés limited to one page in length.
Students can look for jobs online through the University Career and Employment Services, 110 Burge Union. Hartley said students could check out the University job Web site at http://www.ukans.edu/~upo to find out what jobs are available both on and off campus for the current semester.
Students who are interested in further resume advice may contact career services to have their resumés reviewed, said Wayne Stark, assistant director for University Career and Employment Services. Students also can submit their resume online through Career and Employment Services. Students will then be eligible for on-campus interviews with companies that contact the University with student employment opportunities, Stark said.
"It is important that students begin concentrating on internships and career opportunities so that they can start getting real world experience," Stark said.
Stark said that the University began career development with students as early as their freshman year.
One freshman already has begun his job search for next summer.
"I have already started looking for a job so that I know what's out there," said Joe McPeek, Olathe freshman. "This way, it's better than just winging it and being unprepared for interviews."

Part of bike path will be closed for construction on sewer main
Cyclists who use the city bike path near West 31st Street and Kasold Avenue may need to consider an alternate route during October.
The city is closing a quarter-mile section of a bike path that extends from near Clinton Lake to the South Lawrence Trafficway. The path will be closed and barricades installed as soon as the rain subsides and the ground is dry enough for construction to begin on a sanitary sewer main that is being installed near 31st and Kasold streets. The bike path will remain closed throughout the construction, which will be completed as the weather permits.
The path will be barricaded on the north near a bridge and on the south near a gravel road. No detours have been planned, so
cyclists are advised to turn around at the barricades.
Gayle Martin, city communications director, said that cyclists and pedestrians should not use Kasold Avenue as a detour.
"Our concern is people will attempt to go out on Kasold, which is very dangerous," she said.
One lane of automobile traffic also will be closed during the construction. This potentially could make Kasold Avenue dangerous for cyclists and walkers.
The main will be connected to the city's new Four Seasons complex, under construction southeast of Sunnyside and Crossgate Drives. The sewage construction project began in June and is scheduled to be completed in early 2000.

Dominic Ortiz and Kolby Elkins began selling Haskell jewelry while they were students at Haskell Indian Nations University.
In the two and a half years since, Ortiz, Lawrence junior, and Elkins, Haskell graduate student, have moved up in the business world. Through the combined efforts of Ortiz's company, Potawamie Traders, and Elkins' operation, Native Traders, the pair has secured contracts with Prairie Patches, 811 Massachusetts St., and The Ec. Shop, 928 Massachusetts St. in Lawrence.
They also established gift shops a two Topeka-area casinos, the Golden Eagle and Sac and Fox, and have a contract with the French catalog Indian Life. Ortiz even gave one of their bracelets to President Clinton.
Ortiz met Clinton in August when he gave a speech at a Washington D.C. conference called Building Economic Self-Determination in Indian Communities.
owner of Potawamie Traders, Ortiz is also a national representative for American Indian Business Leaders. Through that position, Ortiz entered and won the National Tribal Business Plan Competition, which led the White House to call and invite him to speak at the convention.
Ortiz said that before he gave his speech he met Clinton and gave him a story-teller bracelet. After his speech, he said, Clinton displayed the bracelet to the crowd.
Besides working as president and
"He said, "Today I'm a walking advertisement for Dominic Ortiz," Ortiz said.
Ortiz said that after the speech, many business leaders handed him their cards, including the executive director of the Quirrel Casino in Washington. Ortiz and Elkins are currently working out contracts with Quirrel and Foxwood Casinos in Connecticut to stock their gift shops.
Ortiz said that he and Elkins also wanted to expand in the national collegiate market. Currently they sell Haskell and University of Kansas jewelry.
Ortiz and Elkins started out working at the same business but split when they realized they could accomplish more separately, Ortiz said. He said that Elkins' Native
Traders employs 200 artisans who provide the crafts and Potawamie Traders sells the products.
BIRKS' uncle has a store in New Mexico, where artists turn his designs into jewelry. Other artisans stock the main warehouse in New Mexico.
Otitz said that he would continue working with the company for the next five years, until he completed his master's degree. He said his company had helped him in his studies because he was working in the real business world.
"I can really apply what I've learned," he said.
Still, being the president of a company and a full-time student isn't always easy.
"Sometimes it's tough." Ortiz said.
"I'm either having to give up study time or give up a business deal."
Elkins said he was inspired to become an entrepreneur by his father who made jewelry in New Mexico. He said that he wasn't sure he'd make his business a career, but that he enjoyed working in Lawrence.
"Whenever we have a show, the community participates in everything," he said. "really like that."
Elkins and Ortiz will display their jewelry at a show in Haskell's Stidham Union the weekend of Oct. 9-10.

Texas A&M disarms Jayhawks
Kansas' defeat Saturday confirms frustrating season
TEXAS A&M 9 11

It's becoming the season of "almosts" and "should'vebeens" for the Kansas Jayhawks.
When they played Oklahoma State, they should've won. When they traveled to Missouri, they should've won. And Saturday, when the Texas A&M Aggies traveled to Memorial Stadium, Kansas almost won.
In a hard-fought battle, the Aggies finished off the Jayhawks with a late fourth-quarter drive to win the game 24-21.
"We're really disappointed," freshman Harrison Hill said. "We could've beat that team. They're a top-25 team in the nation, and we could've beat them. We were right with them, and we were ahead with a couple of minutes to go in the fourth quarter. We're extremely disappointed knowing we let that one get by us."
Texas A&M finished the job when Kansas couldn't—the story of the Jayhawks' season these days.
This loss makes the Jayhawks 2-3 overall and 0-3 in the conference.
it was an ugly win, but it was a win, and that is the bottom line," A&M strong safety Rich Coady said. "We are fortunate everyone played well at the end."
"We're the only team in the league that's 0-3, but we've been either tied or ahead during the fourth quarter in all three of the Big 12 games," coach Terry Allen said.
The Hawks were never tied with the Aggies, but they did take the lead 21-17 at the 8:54 mark of the fourth quarter, a feat few probably thought possible after watching Kansas struggle through the first half.
On the first play of the game, quarterback Zac Wener's pass was intercepted by A&M Linebacker Dat Nguyen, who returned it 18 yards. Two plays later, the Aggies had their first touchdown of the game, and not even a minute had elapsed.
Their second touchdown came later in the first quarter on a two-yard rush from
running back Dante Hall, but that's when the Kansas defense kicked it in.
Kansas held the Aggies at 14 until the 5:38 mark of the third quarter, meanwhile scoring their first touchdown on a 58-yard pass from Wegner to receiver Termaine Fulton.
"We thought we did a good job defensively in the first half to hold Texas A&M to just a 14-7 lead," Allen said. A defensive stand on the Hawks one-yard line forced the Aggies to kick a 21-yard field goal for a 17-7 lead in the third quarter.
After that, it was all about the Jayhawk offense.
With 25 seconds left in the third quarter, Wegner connected with freshman Byron Gasaway for a nine-yard touchdown after driving 87 yards downfield.
A mere four minutes later, after driving 83 yards, sophomore David Winbush plunged two yards to pick up the Jayhawk third touchdown of the game and put Kansas in the lead, 21-17.
"That was probably our best drive of the year," Hill said. "They have a good defense, and we drove all the way down the field and made plays on them."
The defense folded, though,
as the Aggies rallied, traveled
75 yards, and took the lead
for good, 24-21 with 3:24
remaining in the game.
And, as had become the norm for the Jayhawks, it just wasn't meant to be.
"This was really frustrating," linebacker Pat Brown said. "We did not handle our responsibilities on defense. Everybody played their hearts out, but we did not get it done."
Two crucial mistakes, Wegner's early interception and a punt muffed by freshman Henri Childs after the ball hit his helmet, led to a combined 10 points for the Aggies.
But it's not something the team plans to dwell on going into the heart of the Big 12 race in the next few weeks, starting with Baylor this weekend.
"We've just got to keep our heads up and keep working and get some wins," Hill said.
Aggies slip past 'Hawks
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan Sportswriter
Close but no cigar.
That rhetoric is becoming all too familiar when discussing the Kansas football team. Saturday's 24-21 loss to Texas A&M was the Jayhawks third conference game in which they had a chance to win, but came up short late in the game. Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum knows that his team was lucky. It made enough mistakes and gave the Jayhawks plenty of opportunities to hand the Aggies their first loss in more than a month.
"I give a lot of credit to Coach
Allen, I think they've done a great job with their team." Slocum said. "I told him before the game I could see their team improving from week to week. I told him before the game that I thought they could very easily be 4-0. I'd say after playing this game they could very easily be 5-0."
"If you look at the games, they played Oklahoma State very competitive, in the second half they were still in there tight," he said. "They played Missouri the same way, and actually they were ahead
Slocum mentioned the Jayhawks' back-to-back losses to Oklahoma State and Missouri.
of us in the fourth quarter. You could easily say that with just a little bit they could be a 5-0 team."
The Kansas defense kept Aggies' quarterback Randy McCown in check. McCown, who replaced starter Brandon Stewart, completed 8 of 19 passes for just 89 yards. Going into the fourth quarter McCown complete 5-of-13 passes, but on the Aggies' game-winning drive he completed a 17-yard pass and a 9-yard pass for a first down and ran for a pair of first downs.
McCown admitted that he was

Military-style Aggie band scares one Jayhawk
Commentary
Editors note: Gerry Doyle, Kansan managing editor, is a member of the Kansas band. His comments on the Texas A&M band follow.
Take the band, for instance. The KU Marching Jayhawks wear elaborate red-and-blue uniforms, huge hats and ugly, white shoes. We can hum our part to any of the KU fight songs. During football games, we perform cheers that, strangely, no one else in the whole stadium knows.
Sometimes, being in a special group can be seen as some kind of a cult.
But any perception of a Marching Jayhawks-Branch Davidians parallel was stomped out Saturday under the boot-clad heels of 300 or soMarching Aggies.
either. Military marches are a staple of bands everywhere.
The fact that they all wore military uniforms wasn't that big of a deal. After all, Texas A&M was a military academy until 1972. It wasn't the music they played.
of those people kinda scared me.
All the members of the Aggie marching band had military-style buzz cuts. Our band director told us that they all live in special residence balls too.
And judging by their marching performance, they must practice at least 150 hours each week.
What really got my attention, at least at first, were the haircuts.
First, were the ha Yep. haircuts.
Gerry Doyle
everything but form curved lines.
I mean, wow. They marched through one another, around one another, over one another, squatted, ran and generally did
And they did it all without hurting anyone. I'm amazed at this. If you took a random sample of a university's population, gave them hard — and expensive — metal instruments and said, "walk fast directly at one another and then change direction at the last second," there would be massive bloodshed.
"Wow. They really blew you guys away.
Well, sure. Whatever. The show they marched at halftime is the only one they perform.
Some people said to me after the game,
"Wow. They really blew you guys away."
They actually never form any curved lines. Ever.
Their music, being composed entirely of marches, is easy to march to. And if they practice as much as they say they do, they darn well better be precise.
them, thus weeding out the less-fit from the band population.
But to me, it doesn't look fun. Part of doing anything is enjoying yourself, and taking band that seriously doesn't seem like it would lend itself to a carefree college life. Even during the game, they seemed less concerned with enjoying a great football game than with being, well, the band.
Besides, anyone who makes a mistake is run over and killed by the person next to
So Saturday was quite an experience. I got to see our football team let another Big 12 victory slip through its fingers. I got to enjoy some cool game-day weather for a change. I got to see my parents. And I was exposed to the Texas A&M band.
Yeah, they're good.
But my blue-and-red clad cult was having more fun.
Doyle is a Kansas City, Mo. senior in journalism and philosophy.
Near misses inspire faith in KU football among'Hawks
I want to believe.
Saturday the football team was oh-so close again.
The Jayhawks could be 3-0 in the Big 12 Conference,5-0 overall.
But I want to believe that we can be a football school, that the Jayhawks can be as fun to watch and as successful on the football field in Memorial Stadium as they are on James Naismith Court in Allen Field House.
Instead, Texas A&M was just another "could've been."
Three times this season, Kansas has taken the field against conference opponents, and three times the team has lost.
Saturday was another shot at a big win that ended up three tantalizing points out of reach.
The Jayhawks played exciting football against the No. 18 Aggies. They made big plays, had defensive stands and, most importantly, gave themselves a chance to win.
Matt Friedrichs
At the beginning of the season, Terry Allen encouraged fans to have realistic expectations. Look to the future we have with our promising young talent, he said.
Zac Wegner didn't look like a timid quarterback trying to survive. On a surprising third-down run in the fourth quarter, he made a first down and didn't go out of bounds, fighting for more yards.
Time and again. Wegner stepped up in the pocket to avoid the rush, and he even scrambled for vardage more than once.
But Saturday, that talent looked almost veteran against Texas A&M, which has a long-standing football tradition in a state known for its voracious devotion to the sport.
Sure, the team made mistakes. An early Dat Nguyen interception and a misce by the punt-return team gave A&M 10 points.
But as I walked through the parking lot and reflected on the game Saturday afternoon, I thought about the positive aspects of the 2-3 Javahawk season.
People are tailgating in the parking lot with KU flags on poles and grills smoking away.
rents on the Hill are filled with student athletes and alumni before games.
Unfortunately, the team is still a big win away from the excitement and confidence the Kansas football program needs.
The win in Birmingham Sept. 26 snapped a road losing streak, but the Jayhawks now need a breakthrough win against an upper-tier Big 12 opponent.
upper left
Not counting Baylor and Iowa State
(teams needing big wins like us), and Nebraska (they don't lose at home), we have games against Colorado on Oct. 24 and K-State on Oct. 31.
There are even people in the stadium. Only a few years ago, the Athletics Department practically had to beg people to wear red or blue to the games.
Everyone wants to believe in these Jay-hawks.
In spite of a long Aggie drive for the winning touchdown, the crowd thought the Jayhawks could pull out a miracle finish.
I know the game against K-State would be a long shot . . . but what better way to ruin their national title hopes than to beat them in Lawrence.
What the heck. The Kansas team has played scrappy football and stayed in games with teams it wasn't supposed to beat.
This season the Jayhawks will benefit from a punt block, an interception or a fumble.
I believe we will beat the Buffaloes or the Wildcats.
Come to the stadium for those games and show that you believe in the Jayhawks.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 5).
Your assignment this year is partnership. Learning to work with someone else will make your life easy and expand your abilities. Yes, your best partner is the one you hoped — and simultaneously feared — it would be. A breakthrough in December changes your perspective and your possibilities.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 7.
We have a harvest moon now, so you can keep working late by the light of the moon. You actually might want to do that, since you're full of energy and your initial plans took longer than expected. You're running into a bit of opposition. Empower yourself by expanding to include it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is 5.
There's a beautiful harvest moon tonight. For you, it means more time to work. Maybe you have crops to bring in, but it's more likely paperwork to do. Do it by moonlight if you want, but get it done. Tomorrow you'll be off to other things.
Gemini (Mav 21-June 21): Todav is a 7.
Team activities require lots of attention today. You and your group can win a game you're involved in together, but it means time away from someone you love. That's unfortunate, but it won't last much longer. Put in the extra work now and enjoy your romantic interlude Friday night
Cancer (June 22-Jul 22). Today is a 4.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) today is a 4.
Should you push for success in your career or opt for more time at home? You could have the best of both worlds. How about finding a job you can do from your home? Give it some thought.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
If you get your errands out of the way early, you might be able to go out this evening, but it'll be a real challenge. Your sweetheart will come up with all sorts of things at the last minute that need to be done. You'll have to enroll him or her in your project in order to make it happen.
Get your money in order so you can try something bold. You'll be feeling more outrageous soon. Confusion is predicted for Thursday and Friday, but change is most possible then. A rather stressful but exciting Saturday leads to a good reason to celebrate on Sunday.
Libra (Seat. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
A confrontation causes you to take action in a direction you didn't expect. You have to hustle to figure out how you're going to pay for it. One thing's for sure. Your life will never be the same. Details are about to take on even greater importance, so make sure you spotcheck everything.
Script (10) Give it in to panic if the work's too tough today. By tomorrow, it'll make sense and you'll start seeing results. You're looking good to a partner. That good impression will result in a new opportunity for you. Turn that into another source of funds to pay off debts, and the pressure will ease.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is an 8.
This should be a good week for you. Play with love on Monday and you'll win. Don't goof around on Tuesday or Wednesday, however. Schedule your dates for Thursday and Friday and give yourself plenty of time to talk. Share the load on Saturday and watch for a great deal on Sunday.
9
Aaarius Ulan. 20-Feb. 18]: Today is an 8.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 4.
Spend today fixing up something about your place that broke over the weekend. Save your big date for the middle of the week. Schedule paperwork for Thursday and Friday and a date with your favorite mate for Saturday night.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is an B.
Gather information today, so you can make your big decision Tuesday or Wednesday. Lenders will be more willing to part with their money after Wednesday.
Romance looks good from late Thursday through most of Saturday. Those are also good times for travel.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Better balance the checkbook before you pay the bills. If you wait until tomorrow or the next day to shop, you'll find better deals, because you'll be looking for them. A partner starts getting fey around Wednesday, which could cause confusion on Thursday and Friday. Be the peacemaker. This is a great weekend for romance.

Volleyball team set to relax after two Big 12 losses
Kansan sportswriter
By Laura Bokenkroger
In the midst of one of the country's toughest conference schedules, the Kansas volleyball team will get a break this week.
After falling to two Top-25 Big 12 Conference teams last weekend, the 10-5 Jayhawks travel Wednesday to the University of Missouri-Kansas City for a welcome non-conference match.
"I think it'll be nice to kind of get a grasp on how much we have improved," said Amanda Reves, middle blocker. "It's hard to measure how far our steps have taken us when we play teams that are so much over our heads."
The Jayhawks lost three games to none against undefeated No. 3 Nebraska (12-0) on Friday night, (15-8, 15-5 and 15-5). They also lost 3-0 against No. 12 Colorado (10-1) on Saturday night (15-11, 15-6 and 15-5).
The two losses in two days dropped Kansas to 1-3 in the Big 12 Conference.
Ray Bechard, volleyball coach, said the tempo of Nebraska's game was faster than that of the Javhawks.
"They were playing higher above the net. We had our moments, but we just didn't stretch them out," Bechard said.
The Jayhawks jumped to a 4-0 lead in the first game against Nebraska, but the Cornhuskers took the lead 6-5 and never trailed again.
The second and third games were over quickly. The Jayhawks fell behind early and couldn't catch up as the Cornhuskers rallied in three-point

"We need to work on first-ball sideout," Bechard said. "We need to get a good pass and attack on the first chance we get to end the play."
and four-point stretches.
Tough Nebraska servers -- including a jump-server who hadn't been a standout until this weekend -- contributed to a lapse in passing for the Jayhawks. Reves said that was a key to the loss.
"When we're up against a tough server, we just need to get a good pass and get out of that rotation," Reves said. "Passing and serving has to be there every game."
Kansas' passing game looked better against a scrappy Colorado team on Saturday night.
The Jayhawks battled for every ball in long lallies, but Colorado's senior-laden squad had the advantage of experience.
"Game one was very clean, competitive," Bechard said. "We had some opportunities where we could have done something here and there, but Colorado's a veteran team. They have some West Coast players who have been playing forever, and they have the reactive, instinctive play that we don't have yet."
Outside hitter Leslie Purkeyle provided a lift off the bench for the Jayhawks by contributing a couple of key hits that led to much-needed sideouts.
Right-side hitter Nancy Bell posted six kills and nine digs to lead Kansas on Saturday.
Outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht led the Jayhawks in the Nebraska match. Albrecht had nine kills and six digs against the Cornhuskers.
Although it was a disappointing weekend for the Jayhawks, Bechard said that the team would work on some specific things in practice and against UMKC to prepare for the rest of the Jayhawks' conference schedule.

Inclement weather rains on parade of Kansas women's soccer team
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas women's soccer team was stalled by an unbeatable opponent this weekend — Mother Nature.
Yesterday's match against Texas Tech was postponed because of heavy rains and lightning at the Kansas City Wizards' practice field.
"It's unfortunate that you can't control the weather, and Texas Tech knew that." Kansas coach Dan Magner said. "It's highly unusual for a soccer game to be canceled, but this is highly unusual weather for this time of year."
The game will be rescheduled later in the season. Magner said that plans already were being made for a new date.
"We're trying to find a date that works for them and us," he said. "There are budgetary concerns. For Texas Tech to fly back up here during the week would cost thousands of dollars. We may have to find a halfway point, such as Tulsa or Oklahoma City, so both teams can bus to the game."
Sunday's postponed game came on the heels of a 1-0 loss to No. 23 Baylor on Friday. The Jayhawks put together one of their better performances of the season against the Bears.
Last year, Baylor defeated Kansas by the same 1-0 score but outshot the Jayhawks
Soccer Ball
40-3. This year, Baylor still outshot Kansas, 33-8, but the shots on goal were much closer, 12-6, in favor of Baylor. Shots on goal are shots that have a chance of going in the goal.
"We have a much
stronger team this year," said goalkeeper Jen Fecke, who made 10 saves. "I think we deserved to win, but it just didn't happen that way."
While the Bears had more shots, many shots the Bears took were not close to the goal. Fecke attributed that to the defense.
"We had really good defense," she said.
"We forced them to take shots from further
out, which resulted in shots going high and wide."
Bears defender Rachel Kacsmaryk scored the lone goal in the 27th minute after a Britt Talley free kick was flicked on by Nikki Thales. A flick on is when a player continues the direction of a ball with her head. Kacsmaryk scored from about seven yards out.
Kansas had several opportunities to equalize. Forward Natalie Hoovgveld nearly broke free in the 72nd minute, but Bears goalkeeper Dawn Greatheath tackled the ball before Hoovgveld could get to it. Defender Jackie Dowell's free kick in the 86th minute rattled the crossbar.
"We were disciplined against Baylor," he said. "We had a game plan and stuck to it. I think it's不fortunate that we had a little lapse on the free kick. A team ranked in the top 25 is going to take advantage of those opportunities.
Magner said that his team played well.
I'm very proud of the way the women played, and they should be proud of the way they played. Performances like this will lead to wins."

little nervous when the Aggies' were trailing with fewer than five minutes in the game.
"I thought Kansas had a good defense," McCown said. "They had a good front seven. I thought they played well. Their secondary did well. We came on that last drive and executed like we had to. We were fortunate enough to be ahead when the clock ran out."
With the Aggies' ineffective passing game, Texas A&M relied on running back Dante Hall to carry the load. His 177 yards came on 36 carries, and his three touchdowns were clearly the difference in the game. Nonetheless, Hall knows the game could have easily gone the other way.
"They (Kansas) did a great job in the red zone," he said. "We just happened to escape with the win."
The Texas A&M "Wrecking Crew"
defense did not demolish the Kansas offense. The Jayhawks ever-improving offense was able to rack up 294 yards. The Aggies, who came into Saturday's game as the 13th best defense in the country, yielded 127 yards on the ground and 167 yards in the air.
"Those guys (Kansas) played hard all game, we left 'em in the game," said Rich Coady, Aggies' strong safety. "There was opportunities out there we could've put the game away, but we just didn't take advantage of those opportunities. That's a good football team. They have a good offense. They don't make a lot of mistakes. I think we made some mistakes, and they were able to capitalize on them. Their quarterback is a good quarterback, when he has time he's gonna throw the ball well, and today he threw the ball well."
The Jayhawks play next Saturday at Bavlor.

No.1 Ohio State Buckeyes reinforce spot as top dog with win against Penn State
The Associated Press
Ohio State did it with defense.
Linebackers Jerry Rudzinski and Joe Cooper recovered fumbles in the end zone for touchdowns as the top-ranked Buckeyes beat No. 7 Penn State 28-9 Saturday.
Last year, Penn State gained the No.1 ranking with a win against Ohio State at State College, Pa. In the rainy rematch at Columbus, Ohio, the Buckeyes backed up their No.1 ranking with a dominating defensive performance against the Nittany Lions
"We wanted to redeem ourselves from that embarrassment last year." Rudzinski said. "We had the same players back and wanted to step up and show the country."
Ohio State held Penn State to 181 yards, including 79 yards on the ground.
FOOTBALL
Rudzinski recovered a fumble by Penn State quarterback Kevin Thompson for a touchdown with 3:51 left in the first half. In the third quarter, Percy
King blocked a Penn State punt and Cooper recovered to put Ohio State ahead 21-3.
The Buckeyes' offensive touchdowns came on a 20-yard touchdown pass from Joe Germaine to Michael Wiley just before halftime and Joe Montgomery's 1-yard run with 3:08 left in the third quarter.
Ohio State quarterbacks coach Tim Salem got so excited by Wiley's touchdown that he punched his hand through a window and sent glass shattering into the press box. He suffered small cuts on his right index finger and forearm.
No.2 Nebraska 24, Oklahoma State 17
Nebraska 24, Oklahoma State 7
At Kansas City, Mo., Nebraska's defense stopped Nathan Simmons on the 1-yard line as time ran out to extend the nation's longest major-college winning streak to 19 games.
Oklahoma State, seeking its first victory against Nebraska since 1961, faced a fourth-and-4 at the Huskers' 12-yard line with 14 seconds left. But Tony Lindsay kept the drive alive, hitting Sina Love
with an 11-vard pass.
Lindsay then spiked the ball to stop the clock with five seconds left. On the final play, Simmons ran up the middle but was stopped by Mike Rucker and a swarm of defenders.
Nebraska, which took the lead on Joe Walker's 73-yard punt return with 7:29 left, stretched its unbeaten streak against Oklahoma State to 35 games.
No. 3 Tennessee 17, Auburn 9
At Auburn, Ala., Shaun Ellis returned an interception 90 yards for a touchdown, and Tennessee capitalized on three Auburn turnovers, winning the rematch of last year's SEC championship game.
Tennessee took a 17-0 lead in the first quarter, then almost squandered it as Auburn shut down the Vols the rest of the wav.
No. 4 UCLA 49, Washington St. 17
At Pasena, Calif., Jermaine Lewis and Keith Brown each ran for two touchdowns as UCLA extended its school-record winning streak to 13.
Quarterback Cade McNown ran for one score and passed for another as the Bruins won a league opener for the second time in eight years.
No.8 Florida 16 Alabama 10
No. 8 Florida 10, At Tuscaoosa, *Travis McGriff* caught a touchdown for 213 yards, including a 32-yard touchdown from Jesse Palmer, as Florida held off Alabama.
Terry Jackson rushed for 135 yards but was stopped on fourth-and-1, giving Alabama a last chance with 45 seconds left from its own 26-yard line. Alabama freshman quarterback Andrew Zow hit Calvin Hall on a 45-yard pass to the Florida 34-yard line with 19 seconds remaining, but Tony George picked off a screen pass from Zow on the next play, ending the threat.
No. 9 Florida St. 24, Maryland 10
At College Park, Md., Sebastian
Janikowski kicked five field goals, and
Chris Weinke passed for 261 yards as Florida State overcame its own mistakes and a surprisingly tough Maryland.
The Seminoles scored on their first four possessions but led only 16-10 at halftime against a team they have dominated for years.
No. 10 Virginia 52-34-34
At Charlottesville, Va., Thomas Jones ran for 203 yards and two of Virginia's six rushing touchdowns.
No. 10 Virginia 52, San Jose St. 14
Aaron Brooks also rushed for two touchdowns, Antwoine Womack ran for 142 yards and one score, and Tyree Foreman added a 3-yard touchdown run as the Cavaliers gained 446 yards on the ground.
No. 12 Georgia 28, No. 6 LSU 27
At Baton Rouge, La., freshman Quincy Carter passed for 318 yards and two touchdowns as Georgia beat LSU.
Carter quieted the huge Tiger Stadium crowd by leading Georgia to touchdowns on its first three possessions.
No.13 Wisconsin 24, Indiana 20 At Bloomington, Ind., Ron Dayne became the sixth player in major-college history to rush for 4,000 career yards as a junior.
Dayne carried 28 times for 130 yards, giving him 4,083 yards for his career. He also scored on a 2 yard touchdown run that put Wisconsin ahead 24-20 with 10:54 remaining.
No.14 Arizona 31, No.20 Washing-
ton 28
At Seattle, Ortege Jenkins scored on a 9-yard run — somersaulting over three defenders left into the end zone — with four seconds left to give Arizona the win.

No. 22 Arkansas 27, Kentucky 20
At Little Rock, Ark., Clint Stroeter
threw two fourth-quarter touchdown
passes, and David Barrett set up the
tying score with a 62-yard interception return

San Diego sends Houston packing
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Padres are going back to the NL championship series after a 14-year absence, thanks in large part to new hero Jim Leyritz.
And Randy Johnson is not going to make it to the World Series as many thought, because the Padres beat the Big Unit and the Houston Astros 6-1 last night to clinch the division series three games to one.
With the crowd of 64,898 fans hanging on every pitch, Leyritz hit his third home run in as many games and 27-year-old Sterling Hitchcock coded in his first playoff start, using a devastating split-fingered fastball to strike out 11 batters in six innings
Johnson lost his fifth-straight decision in the postseason, tying a major league record. He left for a pinch-hitter in the seventh, and reliever Jay Powell gave up pinch-hitter John Vander Wal's two-run triple and Wally Joyner's two-run homer in the eighth.
Trevor Hoffman closed out the ninth inning for the Padres, who move on to face the Atlanta Braves in the NL championship series starting Wednesday night at Turner Field. Atlanta won five
or nine games against the Padres this year.
This is the first time the Padres have been this far since 1984, when they beat the Chicago Cubs in the NLCS but lost the World Series 4-1 to Detroit. Tony Gwynn is the only player left from that team, although Bruce Bochy is the manager and Tim Flannery is the third-base coach.
The Astros go home frustrated for a second-straight year, having been swept by Atlanta in a 1997 division series. Houston has been in five postseason series, and lost all of them.
Johnson was brilliant after being traded from Seattle to Houston on July 31, going 10-1 with a 1.28 ERA. But the Padres beat him twice this series.
Leyritz hit a home run for the third straight game and for the sixth time in 34 postseason atbats.
He sent the crowd into a frenzy with his 422-foot homer to left-center on a 3-1 pitch from Johnson leading off the second. Leyritz had been just 4-for-37 with one home run off Johnson in his career.
The Padres won Saturday night's game 2-1 thanks to Leyritz's solo homer to left field with one out in the seventh.
Thursday, his pinch-hit, two-run shot with two out in the ninth off Billy Wagner sailed just inside the foul pole in right field, tying the game at 4. The Astros came back and won it 5-4 in the bottom of the ninth.
Leyritz is best known for his dramatic homer for the New York Yankees in Game 4 of the 1996 World Series against Atlanta. His three-run, eighth-inning shot against Mark Wohlers tied the game at 6-6. The Yankees went on to win in 10 innings and defeated the Braves in six games.
Trailing 2-1, the Astros loaded the bases without a hit off Joey Hamilton in the seventh. Dan Miceli came on and retired the side on four pitches, striking out Brad Anusmus and getting Carl Everett — pinch-hitting for Johnson — to pop up to third base.
Micell came on with the bases loaded and two out Saturday night and struck out Bill Spiers in three pitches.
Jeff Bagwell walked at the start of the seventh inning and eventually reached third base, but was caught in a rundown after Joyner fielded Sniers' grounder to first.
The Padres scratched out an unearned run in the sixth inning to go ahead 2-1. Greg Vaughn hit a
high fly with two outs and left fielder Moises Alou had to run in to attempt the catch.
Alou tried to make a sliding catch and missed, giving Vaughn a double. Ken Caminiti followed with a chopper to third baseman Sean Berry and stumbled coming out of the box, but Berry made a bad throw that bounced past Bagwell at first base, allowing Vaughn to score.
Hitchcock came in overmatched in playoff experience by Johnson, who had thrown 46 1/3 playoff innings. Hitchcock had made just two relief appearances for the New York Yankees in the 1995 division series against Seattle, totaling 12/3 innings.
But the lefty had the Astros swinging at his splitter, which often dove into the dirt. He allowed two hits and one run and walked none.
He was perfect through three innings before a splitter bounced and hit Craig Biggio in the leg. Richard Hidalgo singled and Derek Bell hit into a double play, moving Biggio to third. Bagwil singled to center to score Biggio.
Biggio hit one-out double in the sixth, but Hidalgo popped up and Hitchcock froze Bell with a curveball, ending the inning.

Cleveland Indians take on Yankees
Teams meet again in postseason play
Cleveland visited the Bronx this time last year, and the Indians had such a pleasant experience they are coming back for a few days. Like last October, they are not expected to beat the Yankees.
NEW YORK — The Indians swear they will not be afraid. They have been to New York, seen the sights, even won a few games on one of baseball's holiest and most hostile grounds.
The Associated Press
And that is just fine with the Indians.
"Maybe we can it again," shortstop Omar Vizquel said. "I
Showing the same resiliency that helped them surprise New York and Baltimore en route to winning the AL championship in 1997.
know they've been warning for another shot at us, and now it's time to go at it."
we indians earned a chance to defend their title by winning three straight games — two with late-inning comebacks at Fenway Park — to eliminate the Red Sox.
How the Indians defeated a team that beat them eight times in 11 games during the regular season is still a bit mysterious. Cleveland batted .206 to Boston's .252, was outscored 20-18 in four games and had a team ERA of 5.00.
CLEVELAND
But as the Indians proved last year, the postseason devalues statistics while elevating intangibles like momentum, emotion and good fortune.
kees, who won 114 games during the season before blowing through Texas with startling efficiency in the first round.
"I don't think you get to the postseason by being lucky," Cleveland manager Mike Hargrove said. "You have to be a good ballclub, and if you catch a few breaks along the way, you can piece some wins together and maybe beat some people along the way that the experts say you're not supposed to beat. We feel very good about ourselves and that we can match up with anyone."
But don't expect the Indians to be shaking in their cleats for game one Tuesday night. Cleveland is loaded with experience, and for all the postgame partying in Boston, a been-there, done-that feeling seemed to emanate throughout the Indians' clubhouse.
Cleveland's reward for beating Boston is a best-of-seven series against the highly touted Yan-
"They have a great ballclub from top to bottom." David Justice, Cleveland's Game 4 hero, sald of the Yankees. "But we're confident we can play on the same field with them. The games will dictate who comes up with the big hits and who's going to be the star on any given night."
Last year, the Indians' brightest postseason star in beating
the Yankees in the division series was Jaret Wright. Unfazed by pitching at Yankee Stadium as a rookie, he beat the Yankees in Game 2 then came back in his next start to win the decisive
game five.
Wright, 2:1 with a 8.66 ERA vs.
New York this year, was disgusted with his performance in game one last week against the Red Sox. The 22-year-old right-hander allowed six runs in 41/3 innings in an 11-3 loss, and afterward wrestled with thoughts of waiting all winter before he could redeem himself.
"If you had told me four days ago that I'd be standing in our locker room with champagne flying all over the place, I would have found that very hard to believe," he said. "For me, I'm grateful for the second chance. Because this team refused to fold, I have a champagne bottle in my hand, and we're preparing for New York. You can't beat that."
As underdogs, they've beaten the odds once already this post-season. Now, the Indians intend to prove they're good enough to stay with baseball's best.
"We knew that the way the Yankees were playing all year that we would have to go through them if we wanted to get back to the World Series," reliever Mike Jackson said. "And now they've got to go through us."
Yankees pay Strawberry visit as he recovers from surgery
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Hearing the good news secondhand was not good enough, so half a dozen New York Yankees visited Darryl Strawberry on Sunday, a day after a cancerous tumor was removed from the outfitter's colon.
Pitcher David Cone intended to bring one of the Yankees' caps, which now have Strawberry's number 39 stitched in white on the back.
"We just want to show him how much we care—and we got the job done he wanted us to do." Cone said before joining teammates Chili Davis, Joe Girardi, Derek Jeter and Tim Raines on the trip to Columbia-Pasbysterian Medical Center, about a mile from Yankee Stadium.
Stuart Herson, the Yankees' team physician, held a clubhouse meeting and gave an update on Strawberry's condition.
Hershon told them doctors thought the cancer had not
"I think we felt a lot better because everything came out well," first baseman Tino Martinez said. "There's a lot of relief around here."
spread, but they would not know until tests come back in about 10 days. Doctors removed a 16-inch portion of Strawberry's large intestine to get rid of a tumor almost 2/12 inches long.
"Knowing George Steinbrenner, there'll be very thorough exams." Torre said. "I have a feeling we're going to have more exhaustive physicals."
Strawberry remained in stable condition Sunday. He is expected to remain in the hospital for about a week.
New York manager Joe Torre, who also visited the 36-year-old outfielder, predicted Strawberry's illness would increase the awareness of colon cancer among the Yankees.
Atlanta Braves sweep Chicago in 3 games
"He's doing well. His family is with him," said Columbia-Presbyterian spokeswoman Szuping Di.
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The surest bet in sports? It might be the Atlanta Braves in the division series.
Although the Braves have struggled in the World Series, winning once in four tries this decade, they have owned the best-of-five round that was added in 1995, treating it as nothing more than some bothersome gnat to be swapped away on the road to the NL championship series.
Atlanta finished off its third straight sweep with a 6-2 victory Saturday against the Chicago Cubs. Overall, the Braves are 4-for-4 in the first round, losing once in 13 games.
The Braves move on to play in their seventh straight NLCS, a feat that's even more remarkable considering the extra round of playoffs they've had to get through the last four years.
"We expect to win," said Greg Maddux, who completed a dominating three days by Atlanta, pitching in the clinching game at Wrigley Field.
"It is a grind," manager Bobby
Cox said. "It is something that will
Braves
be hard to do for any club with the format that's out there now."
After beating Colorado 3-1 in 1985, Atlanta swept Los Angeles. Houston and now the Cubs. In the last three years, the Braves have given up 14 runs in nine first-round games.
Atlanta, 4-2 in the championship series since 1991, will meet the winner of the San Diego-Houston series.
In a champagne-soaked clubhouse, the Braves were in no mood for reflection. As usual, the season will-not be considered a success unless they win another World Series title, so the team needs eight more victories this season.
"It really hasn't sunk in yet," Cox said. "The organization has had tremendous success. We have had great teams for a long time and to be able to (play in the NLCS seven straight times) is really something, trying to keep it all together, keep-
can things do.
As long as the Braves keep their magnificent pitching staff together, they will be a contender. Just ask the Cubs, who averaged more than five runs a game during the season but managed only four in three games against the Braves, hitting a minuscule, 181 as a team.
"I've always thought that good pitching beats good hitting," Maddux said. "We pitched them good and came away with the win."
He'll get no argument from the Cubs — especially Sammy Sosa. After hitting 66 homers in his memorable duel with Mark McGwire, he went 2-for-11 in the division series with no homers or RBIs.
ing your players as healthy as you can, things like that."
"They've got a better team," Sosa said. "They've got better pitching."
said. "They've got better pitching." The Atlanta starters were masterful. John Smoltz went 7 2/3 innings in game one, surrendering five hits and a run. Tom Glavie gave up only three hits and a run in game two. Then Maddux finished it off by allowing seven hits and two runs in game three.
Still, the difference was in the bullpen. While Chicago's relievers surrendered nine runs in 6 1/3
"I've always thought that good pitching beats good hitting. We pitched them good and came away with the win."
Greg Maddux Braves' pitcher
Atlanta did not even need its other two starters, 17-game winner Kevin Millwood and 16-game winner Denny Neagle, who were sent to the bullpen for the division series.
Cox will have to decide if he wants to stick with a three-man rotation for the best-of-seven championship series, or take a chance on Neagle's bursitis-stricken left shoulder in game four.
innings, their no-name Atlanta counterparts — Kerry Ligtenberg, John Rocker, Rudy Seanez and Odalis Perez — pitched 61/3 scoreless innings, giving up just two hits.
The Braves expressed no preference about their opponent in the next round.
"I'm just glad we're going." Mad dux said.

U.S. unemployment creeps higher
Economists blame international slump for low job growth
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The nation's unemployment rate rose to 4.6 percent in September as the impact of a global slump spread widely through the American economy and cut job growth to its slowest in nearly three years.
The seasonally adjusted jobless rate, up from 4.5 percent in the three previous months, was the highest in six months, the Labor Department said Friday. Unemployment hit a 28-year low of 4.3 percent this spring.
Employers added only 69,000 jobs to their payrolls last month, the weakest figure since a blizzard in the Northeast forced businesses to cut jobs in January 1996. Factory employment fell by
16,000, the fifth decline in six months.
Payrolls also declined at construction companies, reflecting the widening impact of the recessions overseas. Service businesses added only 24,000 jobs, the fewest since February 1992 when the economy was emerging from the last recession.
President Clinton said that unemployment has remained below 5 percent for 15 consecutive months.
"The economy remains very solid," he said.
Clinton said he would participate Oct. 12 when finance ministers and central bankers from around the globe meet in Washington to discuss ways to restore world stability.
"We cannot remain an oasis of prosperity." Clinton said.
Economists said this month's report may mark the start of a steady deterioration, even though they acknowledged the job market's continued strength
"Weakness is not isolated to manufacturing," said economist Sung Won Sohn of Norwest Corp. in minneapolis. "The unemployment rate probably will go up gradually. A year from now, we might see it around 5.3 percent."
On Wall Street Friday, stock prices at first extended the crushing losses of the previous three days, but then recovered. The weak unemployment report revived hope that the Federal Reserve will follow this week's quarter-point cut in short-term interest rates.
The Dow Jones average of industrial stocks plunged 102 points in the morning, falling briefly below its lowest close of the year on Aug. 31. It bounced back, though, closing with a 152-point gain at 7,784.
The Commerce Department said orders for factory goods rose 0.9 percent in August, reflecting a rebound in autos after the General Motors strikes and a surge in aircraft. Excluding transportation, orders fell 1.2 percent, the worst showing in three months.
The Asian recession has hurt U.S. manufacturers in two ways: it has slashed sales in one of their best export markets and forced them to compete against a flood of cheap imports.
Makers of industrial machinery and electronic equipment account for 40 percent of the 152,000 jobs lost in manufacturing since March, said Katharine G. Abraham, commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Average hourly earnings rose only 1 cent to $12.86, but that followed a strong 6-cent gain in August. Wages were up 4 percent from a year earlier.
Labor markets still are strong by historical standards. The number of people working part time who would prefer to work full time stood at 3.4 million in September, down by 563,000 over the past year.
Original singing cowboy Autry dies
LOS ANGELES — In his movies and TV series, Gene Autry played the same unchangable character: a true-breed son of the West who always fought fair and square and loved his horse. Champion.
The Associated Press
Off the screen, Autry was a shrewd businessman who owned baseball's Anaheim Angels for more than 30 years.
Hollywood's original singing cowboy died at his home Friday after a long illness. He was 91.
Autry's death came three months after the industry bid happy trails to Roy Rogers, who replaced Autry as Hollywood's top cowboy when Autry left to serve in World War II.
"He often considered himself the baby sister of three generations of children while they watched his movies on Saturday afternoons," said Alex Gordon, who met Autry 52 years ago and later became his director of licensing.
"And these weren't just bang-bang.
shoot 'em-up Westerns. He always wanted to put a moral in the story," he said.
Autry popularized the musical Western in 91 movies from the 1930s to the early '50s. Autry's ventures into movies, music, radio, TV and broadcasting were major successes.
Autry hung up his performing spurs in 1956, but continued to own four radio stations, the Gene Autry Hotel in Palm Springs, and several other properties. In 1982, he sold Los Angeles television station KTLA for $245 million.
He ranked for many years on the Forbes magazine list of the 400 richest Americans, before he fell in 199 to the magazine's "near miss" category with an estimated net worth of $320 million.
Although he owned the Anaheim Angels for more than three decades, the baseball franchise never won a pennant, a major disappointment for one of the sport's biggest fans.
"He knew the singing cowboy had pretty much died out by 1854, and
that's when he moved on to other things," said James Nottage, vice president and chief curator of the Autry Museum of Western Heritage in Griffith Park, Calif.
BARNARD MCGEE
ble exception of riding a bull, is the most uncertain way to make a living I know," Autry wrote in "Back in the Saddle Again," his 1978 autobiography.
Autry: Made 91 movies from the 1930s to the '50s.
"In either case, you can get bucked off, thrown, stepped on, trampled
if you get on at all. At best, it is a short and bumpie ride. It isn't easy to explain why you keep coming back. But you do," he said.
Born in Tioga, Texas, on Sept. 29,
1907, Autry was raised in Texas and
Oklahoma. By age 5, he was singing
in his grandfather's church choir.
He bought his first guitar from a
mail order catalog for $5 when he
was 12.
Humorist Will Rogers encouraged Autry to try his luck in radio. He soon became a hit at a local radio station and landed a recording contract with Columbia Records in 1929.
He is survived by his wife, Jackie,
and a sister. Veda.
"He truly was a star in the golden days of Hollywood. So often, we've caught ourselves humming 'Back in the Saddle Again,' a song that will always bring back warm memories of Gene," said former President Reagan and his wife, Nancy. "He put his heart and soul into every project he worked on, and there will never be another one like him."
Impeachment inquiry causing party conflict
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — On the eve of House Judiciary hearings into possible impeachment proceedings against President Clinton, chairman Henry Hyde said yesterday the Senate so far does not have the two-thirds majority necessary to remove the president from office.
PRESIDENT CLINTON
Clinton:Impeach inquery could be finished by 1999
Hyde also said
he hopes to finish
his impeachm en t inquiry by year's end but won't accept Democ ratic demands for limits on the investigation.
"You know how New Year's resolutions sometimes get broken, but it's my hope and prayer that we could finish by New Year's," the Illinois Republican said.
Hyde's committee meets tomorrow to take up a GOP resolution recommending an open-ended inquiry into whether Clinton's behavior merits impeachment. The Democrats will offer a separate version that would put a deadline on the inquiry and limit it to the Monica Lewinsky affair, but it is likely to be defeated.
Yesterday Hyde again rejected the Democratic demands. He even said he might, if necessary, be willing to expand the inquiry beyond Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's report to Congress.
"We are not seeking that. We're not out trolling for additional issues. But if they come to our attention we will deal with them." he said.
The Judiciary Committee anticipates no more material from Starr, Hyde said
Hyde, who appeared on NBC's Meet the Press and Fox News Sunday, added: "We don't feel bound by Ken Starr."
rhyde mentioned as possible extensions Whitewater, Filigate, Travelgate and Clinton's relationship with former White House volunteer Kathleen Willey and said his committee will look at a report being put out this week by a different House committee on alleged White House campaign fund-raising violations. "We don't want to shut our eyes or use tunnel vision," he said.
At the same time, Hyde admitted that if the House votes to impeach, or indict, the president, the 67 votes required in the Senate to remove him from office are not there. "They won't do that until the American people move, and they have to move from where they apparently are if the polls are true." Hyde said.
Democrats generally were skeptical the inquiry could end this year so long as Republicans can introduce additional issues damaging to the president.
"If all you do is Lewinsky, you can't make that last more than a

couple of months," Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., a committee member, said on ABC's This Week with Sam Donaldson and C o k i e Roberts. "What I am afraid
are going to get is an impeachment in search of a high crime."
House Democratic leader Dick Gephardt of Missouri indicated he will vote against the GOP inquiry resolution when it gets to the floor this week. "I don't want to authorize a two-year, open-ended fishing expedition into everything under the sun," Gephardt said.

Storms, flooding demand rescues
Officers save victims from raging waters
By Keith Burner Kansan staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
riash flooding caused Douglas County Sheriff's officers and the Lawrence Fire Department's water rescue squad to team up in the rescue of five people and two dogs Sunday night and early yesterday morning.
Local authorities said the flooding caused by Sunday night's storm was the worst this part of the state had seen in a decade.
"We just had too much rain too fast," said Douglas County Sheriff Loren Anderson. "It's been about 10 years since it's been this bad."
Sheriff's officers were called to two separate locations during the storm to aid stranded flood victims.
TIPS
The first rescue occurred at 8 p.m. Sunday at 817 N. 900 Rd., when a Douglas County Sheriff's officer responded to a call that two people were stranded in high water.
Heavy rains had caused nearby Washington Creek to overflow and flood the area, and the two victims had decided that they should move their family's cars to higher ground.
The Lawrence Police Department and the Douglas County Sheriff's Office warn drivers against being on the road when flash flooding is possible. If driving is a must, drivers should follow these safety tips:
He also said drivers should slow down when turning on to another street.
Shortly afterward, they were trapped in their barn,
which was surrounded by water, and
could not return to their home.
More information
To find out more about Sunday's storms in the area
See page 2A
- Be aware of the expected amount of rainfall
- Avoid low-lying areas
- Do not drive through standing water
- Take turns slowly
More information
The two men live about one-half mile from the small town of Lonestar, which was flooded by the storm.
The officer then contacted the rescue squad, which used boats to rescue the two Lawrence men and their dog.
In the second rescue, which occurred at 1 a.m. yesterday, a family of three was rescued from a stranded vehicle just south of Lawrence.
A Douglas County Sheriff's officer arrived at 1081 N.1172 Rd. after receiving a report that three people were stranded in a pickup truck 50 feet from non-flooded land.
Three Sheriff's officers arrived and used the department's four-wheel drive patrol vehicle to rescue the three people and their dog.
Sheriff Anderson said that most flood-related deaths happened in vehicles.
He offered some safety tips that people should follow during flooding.
"For one thing people should stay off the roads." he said.
He said that because flash floods, by their very nature, happened quickly, people should be aware of the amount of rainfall in a given time period.
Anderson said that if a person must drive, they should avoid low-lying areas and not drive across flooded parts of roads.
He said people should avoid driving through water because their is no way to determine how deep the water is and, unknown to the driver, the roads could have been washed out by the flooding.
'Do we have a duty to look further, or to look away?' - Henry Hyde
Clinton investigation

Abbe Lowell, Democrats' top lawyer
Henry Hyde, R. III., Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee
PETER PARKER
David Schippers, Republicans' top lawyer
Inquiry vote strictly follows party line
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In a historic step taken strictly along party lines, the House Judiciary Committee voted last night for an open-ended impeachment inquiry of President Clinton. Lawmakers were somber and partisan by turns, as the top Republican lawyer cited "substantial and credible evidence" of 15 possible grounds for impeachment.
The roll call for a formal inquiry under Watergate-style rules was 21-16, with all the panel's Republicans in favor and all the Democrats opposed. The full House of Representatives is expected to agree to the inquiry later this week, making Clinton only the third president in American history to be subjected to the threat of formal impeachment proceedings.
"Do we have a duty to look further, or to look away?" Chairman Henry Hyde, Rill, asked at mid-morning as he gave the committee to order in the same cay.
ernous room where Richard Nixon's fate was debated a quarter-century ago.
"This is not about Watergate," retorted Rep. John Conyers of Michigan, the panel's senior Democrat. "It's an extramarital affair."
Democrats tried twice to curtail the scope and duration of the inquiry and argued that even if proven, some of the allegations against Clinton do not rise to the level of impeachable offenses. Both times Democrats were turned away on party-line votes, including on one proposal to limit the inquiry to Clinton's relationship with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky and to force the case to be wrapped up by Nov. 25.

University reactions echo partisan vote

Ward Cook, KU College Republicans president and Mission Hills senior, said the House should investigate the matter further.
"I think Kenneth St outlined obvious reasons why we need an impeachment inquiry," he said. "But I am not convinced that Clinton should be impeached."
Cook said he was surprised by the Judiciary Committee's party-line voting.
Michael Young, a member of KU Democrats and Lawrence sophomore, said it would

be dangerous to hold impachment inquiries now because of the of the Nov. 4 elections.
At this moment in time, Washington is in a state of sticking with your party," Young said. "It is not in the spirit of what is right and what is just."
He said that people still liked his job performance.
"Republicans would like to include more evidence of wrongdoings by the president like filegate, travelgate, Whitewater and possible campaign finance violations," Cigler said. "Democrats want a quick end to the matter."
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said the likely outcome of the Judiciary Committee's decision could be limitless.
"The economy is up, jobs are plentiful,
crime is down and people like this," he said.
Cigler said he thought the House would go ahead with an impeachment inquiry.
"I don't think they will have the necessary two-thirds vote to remove him from office," he said. "What you are seeing is the first step in a couple-month process."
Commission to uncork debate on bar's closing time
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission will consider the closing time of one neighborhood bar and possibly could consider more at its meeting tonight.
The commission will be considering a drinking establishment license for The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., and also could consider defining and imposing restrictions on bars near residential neighborhoods.
BUD LIGHT
THE HAWK
City Manager Mike Wilden said the commission could take a number of actions tonight, such as granting The Hawk their license, allowing them to close at 2 a.m. or granting a license with a condition that the bar closes at midnight.
matthew All, attorney for the bar's new owner, John Heleniak, said The Hawk was open-minded regarding any proposal made, but he said the bar ultimately is looking for the commission to grant their license with a 2 a.m. closing time.
Concern has risen in the past year

Residents say noise and other disturbances increased when the state drinking age changed from 18 to 21 in the early 80's. At that time, The Hawk began closing at 2 a.m.
about The Hawk's license because of the bar's history in the neighborhood.
Last December, The Hawk's previu ouser, Jon Davis, gave up his drinking establishment license under pressure from the Kansas division of Alcoholic Beverage Control.
In January, Davis obtained a cereal malt beverage license, which requires a midnight closing time. Oread neighborhood residents have noticed a significant decrease in noise and other bar-related problems
in the months afterward.
New owner Heleniak received a drinking establishment license from the state in September. With the city's
approval, the license would allow The Hawk to remain open until 2 a.m.
Linda Hixon of the Oread Neighborhood Association said she would prefer a compromise that would keep The Hawk open and bar crowds tolerable to the neighborhood.
"People will be coming in the door while we're closing," he said. "It would be a lot more profitable if we could stay open until 2 a.m."
All said The Hawk has taken steps to reduce underage drinking and rowdy crowds. The bar installed a security system that scans patrons' identification and hired more staff.
He said the security system would reduce the number of customers with fake IDs and subsequently decrease unruly behavior.
Heather Lewis, Leoti freshman,
said the city should let the bar remain
open until 2 a.m. If The Hawk continued
to close at midnight, customers
would wander to other bars, she said.
"They might as well have them drink somewhere where they won't be driving." Lewis said.

Flash floods kill seven in Kansas City area
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Seven people are dead and two are missing after fierce storms dumped six inches of rain on the Kansas City area Sunday.
Recovery teams found the bodies of Orlando Hudson, 27, and Bonita Black, 43, in Brush Creek — an 11-mile flood control waterway that flows through metropolitan Kansas City.
A third body was recovered yesterday afternoon from Brush Creek. The name of the victim was not immediately released.
A woman whose body was found on a creekside tennis court in Kansas City, Mo., remained unidentified, police said.
searchers worked all day in light rain to locate the two missing people. They took a final walk along the creek's banks before darkness set in. The search will resume this morning, said Brad Humston, public information officer for the Fire Department.
Two motorists also were killed in in the suburbs.
Police said Walter Knott, 83, was swept away by waterfowers at about 8:30 p.m. Sunday as he exited his stalled car on a street in Overland Park. His body was found three blocks away several hours later.
In nearby Lenexa, 27-year-old Kenneth W. Tucker Jr. was found about a half-mile from his car, which was in Mill Creek, police said.
A 9-year-old boy, John W. Parmerlee,
disappeared into a creek behind his home in Blue Springs, Mo., about 20 miles east of Kansas City.

Clinton's chief of staff to resign this month
DURHAM, N.C. — White House chief of staff Erskine Bowles said he would resign when Congress adjourns this month and would focus his attention on whether to run for governor of North Carolina in 2000.
Bowles, who has been indicating for several months that he would leave the White House job, said Sunday that he would enter the governor's race only if he thought he could win with a positive, issue-oriented campaign.
Bowles is one of four Democrats looking to succeed four-term Democratic Gov. Jim Hunt. Lt. Gov. Dennis Wicker, state Attorney General Mike Eslay and state Transportation Secretary Norris Tolson are in the running.
Bowles also said he would campaign for Democratic candidates in this year's elections.
Bowles said he knew that the Clinton sex scandal had damaged him politically. "It can't help," he said. "If the election were today, it would hurt. It would hurt a lot.
"Nobody is more disappointed in what the president did than I am," Bowles said. "I'm angry with him. I'm disappointed. I think what he did was just dead wrong. At the same time, I know that none of us are all good or all bad. There are lots of things he has done as president that I'm proud to be part of."
Helicopter collision over Gulf of Mexico kills one
CAMERON, La. — Two helicopters collided over the Gulf of Mexico yesterday. One pilot was killed and the other was rescued.
There were no passengers aboard either helicopter. The accident happened about 107 miles southeast of Cameron, La.
The body of the dead pilot, who worked for Tex Air Helicopters of Houston, was pulled from the water late yesterday morning, the Coast Guard said.
A boat in the area rescued the other pilot, who worked for Petroleum Helicopters Inc. and was flying between two offshore rigs when the accident occurred. He appeared to have only minor injuries, but a medical helicopter was flying him to shore for a checkup, said Ed Gatza, company representative.
Kentucky teen pleads guilty to school shootings
PADUCAH, Ky. — A teen-ager yesterday pleaded guilty but mentally ill for opening fire on schoolmates who were taking part in a prayer session, killing three of them and injuring five others.
McCracken Circuit Judge Jeff Hines set a sentencing date of Dec. 16 for Michael Adam Carneal, the Paducah, Ky., 15-year-old charged with the shootings at Heath High School in West Paducah last Dec. 1.
Under a plea arrangement, the judge agreed to accept the pleas on condition that the maximum penalty — life in prison without possibility of parole for 25 years — would be imposed.
Defense attorney Tom Osborne said that Cameal suffered from paranoia and a schizophrenia-like personality disorder but that the mental illnesses were not affecting the defendant's decision.
Prosecutors and the victims' families had originally opposed the idea of having Carneal plead guilty but mentally ill. Such a murder plea carries a life term with the possibility of parole in as little as 12 years, while a murder conviction without the finding of mental illness carries a term of life with parole possible only after 25 years.
Carnal was charged as an adult with three counts of murder, five counts of attempted murder and one count of burglary. He allegedly stole the .22-caliber pistol used in the shootings and four other guns from a home.
With the plea agreement yesterday and its higher minimum sentence, none of the victims' relatives strongly objected to the agreement, the prosecutor said.
China signs U.N. treaty supporting human rights
WORLD
UNITED NATIONS — China signed a human rights treaty yesterday that calls for freedom of expression and religion, even as Beijing brought a prominent human rights campaign in for questioning.
Qin Yongmun's latest run-in with the authorities came as he tried for the second time in a week to register a human rights monitoring group.
The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights signed yesterday is one of two accords seen as fundamental to protecting human rights. China also has signed the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights but has not ratified it.
The treaty states that all people have the right of self-determination. It prohibits torture, cruel or degrading punishment and provides for freedom of movement, thought, religion and expression, among other things.
The treaty was adopted by the U.N. General Assembly in 1966 and went into force a decade later. Since then, 140 countries have ratified it or accepted to it.
Israel reportedly making biological, chemical arms
PRESIDENT
LONDON — Israeli F-16 fighters have been equipped to carry chemical and biological weapons manufactured at a secret biological institute in a Tel Aviv suburb, a British newspaper reported.
Netanyahu: Says chemicals have industrial uses.
The Sunday Times also reported that the institute supplied the poison used in last year's assassination attempt on Khaled Meshal, a leader of the Islamic fundamentalist group Hamas. Israeli agents in Jordan sprayed the poison into
Meshal's ear, but Israel supplied an antidote after Jordan threatened to put the agents on trial, the report said.
The Israeli government has said reports about the institute's production of chemical and biological weapons are inaccurate.
Last week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office acknowledged that an El AI cargo plane that crashed in an Amsterdam residential area in 1992 was carrying a chemical that could be used to make sarin, a deadly nerve gas.
His office also said that the chemical had various industrial uses and that the shipment had been approved by Washington.

Full House will vote on inquiry

with Monica Lewinsky but other matters as well. The committee would have the power to subpoena witnesses and conduct hearings.
In an hour-long presentation to the panel, the Republicans' lead investigator, David Schippers, broadened the counts set out by Starr to raise the possibility that Clinton took part in a broad conspiracy to cover up his actions.
Schippers also addressed the issue of Lewinsky's truthfulness, a key point because her testimony about some key details differs from the president's. "For the limited purpose of this report, we suggest that Monica Lewinsky's testimony is both substantial and credible." Schippers said.
The Democrats' top lawyer, Abbe Lowell, said the Republican staff had simply subdivided Starr's 11 charges without adding significant new allegations.
The committee acted as fresh polling evidence suggested the proceedings could help shape the outcome of mid-term elections a month away.
GOP sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said a new survey conducted for the Republican National Committee indicated that bedrock Democratic voters have begun expressing greater interest in the election than they did only two weeks ago, but still not as much as Republican voters.
Clinton himself did not mention the proceedings unfolding 16 blocks away when he appeared briefly before reporters on the White House grounds.
Joe Lockhart, presidential spokesman said. "We don't believe there's anything here that reaches the level of an impeachable offense."
Nixon resigned before the full House could vote to impeach him in 1974. The only other president to face the threat of impeachment, Andrew Johnson, was impeached by the House but acquitted in the Senate by a single vote in 1868.

Plans offered to improve Kansas education
By Jason Pearco
Kansan staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway believes that better coordination and cooperation between public universities, community colleges and vocational-technical schools is needed if Kansas wants to continue its excellence in higher education.
To reach this end, Hemenway and 25 other chancellors and presidents of public universities and community colleges in Kansas recently presented their blueprint for enhancing higher education to the Task Force on Higher Education Structure for Excellence. It includes the need for a new coordinating body to focus on issues that the Kansas Board of Regents cannot govern.
"The coordinating body could help to determine state education needs that are currently going unchanged." Hemenway said.
The blueprint asks the task force, which Gov. Bill Graves began earlier this year, to consider issues including: deciding disputes between different institutions, ensuring that courses transfer ade-
quately and appropriately between institutions, approving and reviewing academic programs, administering state financial assistance, and facilitating mergers between certain community colleges.
100 YEARS AGO
Hemenway
Hemenway; Gives ideas to enhance higher education.
said the coordinating body would work best if it reported directly to the governor — a separate entity from the Board of Regents.
"We have to start out with an understanding that Kansas has a good system of higher education,"
Hemenway said. "The real question is how do we make it better overall without diminishing the quality of any entity."
The blueprint echoed his views by stating that Kansas ranks seven among all states in the proportion of high school graduates engaged in post-secondary education (75.8 percent), and 32 in cost per student.
But this possible reform is not the first of its kind. Since the implementation of the Regents, state authorities have completed more than 20 studies of higher education governance that changed little in the system.
And earlier this year, a bill died in the Legislature that would have created a Council on Higher Education to replace the Regents. The council would have overseen the six public universities, 19 community colleges, seven vocationaltechnical schools and four technical colleges.
But Graves and other lawmakers
cited problems with financing the $140 million endeavor.
Graves then formed the task force in July and requested that it make recommendations on how to improve higher-education governance. The recommendations, which are expected in mid-January, will serve as a starting point for the Legislature to make changes.
Bill Docking, Regents chairman,
told the task force that while the Kansas higher education system offered much to be proud of, no one should be satisfied with the status quo.
"The needs of the state are evolving at an ever-increasing rate," he said. "In response, we must continually assess our ability to serve the state, and we must be ready to make the changes necessary to maintain our leadership role in higher education."
The task force will consider the blueprint when it meets during the first week in November.
Free bus rides end, passes or money needed
O McGO
No one waits to get on two buses on Jayhawk Boulevard. Bus lines may become shorter this week because, beginning yesterday, students were required to have a bus pass rather than their KUIDs to ride the buses, ending the free rides many students have been enjoying the past few weeks. Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN
By Seth Jones
The free ride has ended.
Friday was the last day students could board the bus by showing their KUIDs. Beginning yesterday, students must have the new bus pass to ride.
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator,
said bus passes were available at the banking window on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. Semester passes cost $60, annuals cost $110.
Last week, KU on Wheels distributed the new bus passes at various locations around campus. Skalla said about 95 percent of the new passes had been distributed.
Skalla said to get one of the new passes was no trouble.
"It takes about two minutes to get a new pass." Skalla said
"Go to the banking window," she said. "After you buy the pass, the banking window sends you across the hall to the card center with a note. They'll give you a bus pass. Then you go back over to the banking window, and they'll put a sticker on it."
Dave Eden, second-year bus driver, said bus attendance had dropped off yesterday.
Kansan staff writer
"Usually there are 400-plus riders at this time, but today we only have 360," he said. "And with this rainy weather, you'd figure more people would be riding today."
Eden also said more students were paying the
dollar fee to ride the bus.
"I've seen quite a few more dollar bills today then I was seeing last week," he said.

City commission should uphold state's alcohol permit for tavern
Tonight, the Lawrence City Commission will decide whether to allow The Hawk to sell hard liquor and stay open until 2 a.m. The Hawk is under new control and has obtained a five-year permit from the state to sell alcohol.
Even though the bar is under a different controller, John Heleniak, a 29-year-old Lawrence resident, the city has made it clear that the bar will be under a strict eye.
Because the establishment has had problems in the past under the control of Jon R. Davis, a black shadow has been cast on the bar. It is unfair for the commission to punish a new owner because of what a previous owner did or did not do.
The city commission should allow Heleniak to operate The Hawk as a full-fledged bar, which would mean selling hard liquor and staying open past midnight. To not allow the bar to stay open until 2 a.m., the commission would be prejudicially restricting one
The new operator of The Hawk is applying for a city alcohol permit tonight.
establishment
It is not justifiable for the commission to preclude that the same problems will occur under Heleniak that occurred under Davis. Last year, when the bar was operated by Davis, it was cited by the Division of Alcohol Beverage Control 22 times for underage persons in possession of alcohol.
Davis relinquished his liquor license in December to the state. In January, the city granted him a permit to sell cereal malt beverages, but the bar had to close at midnight.
Heleni took over the lease in September and has been operating under a temporary license. If The Hawk is not allowed to maintain regular bar hours, it
will lose substantial revenue generated in bars between midnight and 2 a.m.
However, some residents of the Oread neighborhood say the noise of the bar and some unruly behavior by past patrons outweigh the owner's right to keep the bar open past midnight.
Bob Moody, commissioner, said that the city had a right to place conditions on the bar's liquor license. He said that residents of the area did not deserve to be subjected to renewed hardships associated with the late hours of the bar.
Although the commission should take into account the feelings of The Hawk's neighbors, it shouldn't base its decision on numerous violations that occurred under previous management.
The commission should permit The Hawk to sell hard liquor and operate until 2 a.m. for a six month trial period. Then the commission should rehear the case and determine what is necessary for the long-term permit.

Pats on the back for monks and money
This week the Kansan editorial board would like to give two pads on the back for two very different gifts given to the University of Kansas.
This year, the Kansas University Endowment Association broke its previous record for annual contributions to the University by $7.8 million, donating a total of $44.4 million.
The largest percentage of the donations — 31 percent — went directly to students in the form of scholarships and fellowships, but a large chunk went to the much needed bolstering of teacher salaries. If the University is to live up to a moniker such as "the Harvard of the West," a prolific Endowment Association will be an

Computer ownership shouldn't be monitored
Perspective
University of Kansas officials are disturbingly off base in their willingness to consider making it mandatory for students to own a computer.
tory for students to ov Provost David Shulen-
burger has recommended the requirement, which is being discussed by faculty. This is a bad proposal for the wrong reasons
Clay McCusinon opinion@kansan.com
The entire concept is elitist. Computers are expensive machines that become outdated quickly. Four years is an eternity in technological development.
A student may be able
A student may be able to scrape together the funds to purchase a computer at the beginning of a college career, but that computer will be obsolete junk by the time the student graduates.
The proposal assumes a computer is remotely affordable. In this age, a college education is required for many well-paying jobs. The University must not put more barriers in the way. The University should attract middle-to-lower income students, not drive them away with sneering and condescending restrictions.
I must note before going further that I own a computer. I used it to type this column. The summer before my freshman year, I decided to make the leap into the technological age.
I worked in fast food, served out my time and was paid minimum wage. Every cent I made that summer went to purchasing a computer. It's not a top-of-the-line machine and certainly not a brand name, but I was determined to buy it.
I resent the University making a personal choice into a requirement. It renders the time and effort I spent frying greasy food pointless.
The sacrifices I made to purchase a computer would be mandatory. I've always considered my computer somewhat special, signifying dedication and endurance. The University wants to take this significance away.
Officials will be quick to say they don't want to alienate students. They want to attract bright young minds, no matter the mind's income level. A campus with widespread computer ownership and access to the Internet will benefit everyone. Computers will be available at reduced prices to
freshmen.
This hype is the message the University wants students to hear and digest. But the action they're taking sends a message of its own: The University doesn't need the poor. After all, the poor can't afford computers, printers, Ethernet cards, Internet connections and overpriced software. Jayhawks are meant to come from suburbs, own nice cars and vote for moderate political candidates. Jayhawks who don't create waves.
Jayhawks who follow the crowd, and like everyone else, own new Gateway 2000s.
It is not the place of the University, supported by the tax dollars of rich, middle-class and poor to send messages such as this. This is a public institution. It is here to serve the people of the state of Kansas, no matter what those people look like act like, or bring home from the office.
There are deeper reasons for this proposal, however. Besides, the frightening prospect of the University cutting technology for students (think about it — why finance computer labs if everyone owns a computer already?) , there's the obvious public relations value. Great headlines could be churned out: "KU at forefront of technological revolution," "KU students among nation's most computer-savvy." The chancellor could give smiling interviews, expounding on the advantages of a plugged-in campus.
such publicity would be shallow and pointless. Like most publicity, it would have little basis in reality — aside from the reality administrators wish existed. It wouldn't help students learn, and it wouldn't help the University educate them.
nere is no defensible reason to institute this requirement. If a student has the resources to buy a computer, it's likely the student has one. If the student doesn't have the resources, it's not the University's place to make them a second-class citizen.
There is much to be said for computer ownership, but computers can't make students learn. They are, at best, tools. At worst, they're distractions from studies. To confuse the possession of a hunk of plastic, metal and silicon with the learning process is dangerous and short-sighted. If the University can't understand this distinction, it denies itself the opportunity to educate the people who could benefit most from college.

Uncovered JFK findings render useless information
The Assassination Records Review Board published its findings last Monday following a six-year trek into the U.S. government's mountain of records on the 1963 death of President Kennedy.
The U.S. government admitted this week that it covered up evidence in the John F. Kennedy assassination. In other news, scientists asserted that, yes, the earth is round.
Jeremy Doherty
Guest Columnist
M
Brace yourself. They concluded that the government withheld information from the public and obstructed the various investigations in the 35 years since the killing in Dallas.
It's curious that it took $8 million to arrive at a conclusion that has been on the record since 1979. It's also discouraging that the public has not raised any kind of furor about this obscene waste of tax dollars.
Created by Congress as a means of rebutting the popular conspiracy claims in Oliver Stone's JFK, the board did not have the authority to reopen the investigation into Kennedy's death.
Rather, it was a house-cleaning group charged with poring over more than 60,000 documents left behind by the FBI, CIA and the Warren Commission, which investigated the killing in 1964.
The fruits of the ARRB's labor are hardly earth-shattering. It discovered that Lee Harvey Oswald's mother sent money to the accused assassin during his visit to the Soviet Union. Further documents about the CIA's attempts to assassinate Fidel Castro also surfaced, which might have been news had it not been common knowledge for more than 20 years.
Those stories first came to light in the 1970s when Congress looked into the murders of both Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. That same investigation uncovered repeated accounts of the FBI's mishandling and destruction of key evidence, including an alleged bomb threat, written by Oswald, that literally found its way into the toilet.
Given that, one has to wonder what the board hoped to find in these long-hidden documents. A CIA file announcing the presence of government-paid assassins at the site of
Eyewitnesses who saw a gunman in Dallas placed him in only one location — behind Kennedy, in the sixth floor window of the Texas School Book Depository. One witness, Howard Brennan, later identified Oswald as the killer during his Warren Commission testimony.
Nineteen medical experts told Congress in 1979 that the autopsy photos and X-rays revealed evidence of only two hits to JFK — both fired from above and behind.
"There is physical, medical, ballistics evidence that leads you to conclude that one person could not have fired all the shots," Lesar said.
I'd love to know his source for this, particularly because all the evidence points to an inescapable conclusion: one man, acting alone.
But people don't want to hear the facts. Gunmen lurking in shrubbery and Mulderty conspiracies are sexier than an angry loser who killed a president for his own deranged purposes. But turning the country's loss into the half-baked plot of a James Bond flick only commits a disservice to history and to John F. Kennedy.
Finally, two ammunition experts determined in 1964 that all the recovered ammunition had been fired from Lee Harvey Oswald's rifle.
Fellow conspiracy advocates, such as James Lesar, a Washington, D.C., attorney, took the opportunity once again to proclaim their fairy tales about multiple gunmen and magic bullets.
JFK's murder? Proof that Oswald was a secret agent? Evidence that the Warren Commission conspired with space aliens to kill Elvis?
Conspiracy buffers are tickled with these new bits of minutiae. David Lifton, whose book Best Evidence asserts that JFK's corpse was stolen and then medically altered to hide proof of a second gunman, said the "new" information would allow research to continue.
"No one working on the Kennedy assassination today can ignore what the review board did," Lifton said.
Thanks to its "investigation," the board has ensured that the fascination with conspiracies will stretch on well past the millennium.

Students have options for dealing with harassing, annoying phone calls
By Kolli Rayborn
Kansan staff writer
Some students may dread the ring of their own phones.
Salesman, strangers and charities often call people who may not want to speak to them.
Most serious among these calls are those from people who make threatening remarks. The KU Public Safety Office and Networking and Telecommunications
Telecommunications Services have a procedure for dealing with such phone calls to students who live on campus.
Elizabeth Pesek Shields, senior network analyst for the telecommunications office, said that a student who received a harassing call could file a
"After Southwestern Bell introduced Caller ID, annoyance calls went down by 49 percent. The people making these calls know there's a good chance they're getting caught."
Report in the Public Safety Office and take the case number to the telecommunications office. She said the student could then consent to have his or her line monitored.
Southwestern Bell offers services including Call Blocker for $3 per month, Caller ID for $6.50 to $7.50 per month and Call Trace for $8 per activation, said company spokesman Trent Frager.
Frager said Southwestern Bell received an average of 10,000 reports of annoying and anonymous calls every month. The numbers used to be much higher. Frager said.
"After Southwestern Bell introduced Caller ID, annoyance calls went down by 49 percent," he said. "The people making these calls know there's a good chance they're getting caught."
"We do not listen to the calls, but we are able to log information regarding incoming calls," Pesek said.
Trent Frager Southwestern Bell spokesman
The telecommunications office will release information regarding incoming harassing calls to the Public Safety Office.
Students who live off campus have more options for stopping threatening calls.
However, annoying phone calls do not always come from obscene or anonymous callers. Telemarketers also can disrent students' studies
Telemarketers also can disrupt students' studies and their lives.
Susan Childers,
Lawrence senior, said that after her bovriend
received an AT&T Universal card in the mail without applying for it, their home was plagued by sales calls.
"It was an extreme nuisance," she said. "I was sick of it."
Childers said she received five or six calls in a two-month period.
"I told them specifically not to call back," she said. "They called back three times after I said, 'Take him off the list.'"
The Better Business Bureau said it was illegal for a telemarketer to call someone who had
TELEMARKETING RULES
The Better Business Bureau's list of the rules that govern telemarketers in Kansas:
It is illegal for a telemarketer to call you if you have asked not to be called.
No calls are allowed before 8 a.m. or after 9
It is illegal for a telemarketer to withdraw money from your checking account without your express, verifiable authorization.
■ Telemarketers must tell you it's a sales call and what they are selling before they make their pitch. If it is a prize promotion, they must tell you that no purchase or payment is necessary to enter or to win.
State law enforcement officers now have the power to prosecute fraudulent telemarketers who operate across state lines.
asked not to be called.
Childers said the calls to her home finally stopped, but initially she was told it would take 60 to 90 days for her name to be removed from the calling list.
Nilda Weglarz, AT&T media relations manager, said that AT&T honored requests for removal from its lists but that it could take up to 30 days before the removal occurred.
Childers said she had taken a stand against solicitors by taking free stuff and then canceling services.
"Sometimes you can just milk them for what they're worth," she said. "Learn to manipulate them."
Telephone checkups welcome freshmen
Orientation office measures feedback from new students
Kansan staff writer
By Melody Ard
The Office of New Student Orientation will spend the next two weeks completing a program in which it attempts to call every new freshman.
Kristin Adkinson, assistant director, said the program's goal was to find out where students were having problems and to give them answers to their questions.
"We have attempted to contact new students within the first six weeks of their being here." Adkinson said. "We try and give them references or resources if they have questions or problems and remind them of uncoming events."
Reminders change based on the University of Kansas' upcoming events. For example, students who were called last week were given information about Parents' Weekend, Adkinson said. The students who have not been
called yet will receive information about spring enrollment.
Adkinson said many students were adjusting well to University life.
"For the most part, students are having a great time," she said. "Some are talkative and want to tell us everything they have done, and others tell us they are doing fine and don't have anything else to say."
Calling duties have been divided among more than 50 University faculty and staff members from various departments, about 20 student volunteers and admissions telecounselors. Adkinson said she did not know how many hours had been spent on the project nor how many students remained on the calling list.
R. J. Woodring, Lisle, Ill., sophomore, was an orientation assistant last summer and a part-time employee of the office. He said he spent between eight and 10 minutes talking with each freshman and a total of four hours calling students.
"Freshmen usually say their worst experience is going to class, and often their best experience is making friends," he said. "Stu
"Freshmen usually say their worst experience is going to class, and often their best experience is making friends. Students have been pretty receptive to it. They are excited to talk about their experiences and, for the most part, excited that someone from the University is calling them."

dents have been pretty receptive to it. They are excited to talk about their experiences and, for the most part, excited that someone from the University is calling them."
This is the third year that New Student Orientation employees have been collecting data from freshmen. As a result of the program, the office discovered that an information exchange helped both the University and students.
"We found out from the students last year that we needed to start making calls earlier." Adkinson said. "We feel that if the student is knowledgeable, it helps them down the road."
Adkinson said the office did not plan to make changes based on the information but that she hoped to compile the information from the past three years and learn more about recent and future freshmen.
Through calling, Adkinson said the office identified a common problem that many freshmen did not even realize existed.
"A lot of students don't have campus addresses updated," she said. "So the phone numbers that we have been calling are the phone numbers at their parents' homes. That means that their permit to enroll will be sent there, and they need to change that."

Memorial garden grows closer to fall completion
Workers place finishing touch on campus site

The orange fencing will protect the site until construction workers make the finishing touches this fall.
Construction began last April when the family of former Chancellor Deane Malott donated $267,000 for the project. The site will become a memorial garden in memory of Malott's wife, Eleanor.
"In terms of landscaping, this is a very nice addition that will be seen by a lot of people," said Doug Riat, associate director for design and construction management.
Some of the changes to the site
include new railings, colored concrete steps, plants, a concrete wall and a concrete drive, Riat said.
Although the project was scheduled to be completed by the time school started, the garden will not be finished until later this semester, said Mike Tindell, owner of Coal Creek Construction Co.
Limestone benches also will be added along the south side of the rock wall, Tindell said. The new benches will offer seating for about 20 or 30 people.
of Kansas is that it is a pretty campus, and this adds to it," said Erek Doperalski, Wamego freshman. "I walk to Robinson on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and it's going to be nice to have something to look at."
The site has been fenced off to redirect pedestrian traffic out of the construction area, where bricklaying and caulking are being completed. Riat said.
The number of construction workers at the site has ranged from just a few to 15, causing production to fall behind. Tindell said the workers were hoping to finish up some caulking and a few other parts of the project so that the garden would be ready for University approval.
"I definitely think that it is going to look cool," said Susan Delaney, Eden Prairie, Minn., freshman. "It looks good with all the building architecture around it, and once they finish, it will be nice to be able to walk straight down the hill on the sidewalk instead of having to go around the construction site."

Heavy wind tears roof from house
Strong wind blew the roof off a Lawrence home Sunday, causing $75,000 in damage
r the home's owner and family were in the house in the 900 block of East 543 Road when the storm hit.
The storm rumbled out of eastern Kansas late Sunday afternoon and also caused power outages in Lawrence between 6:30 and 8 p.m. Rain totals were estimated at more than 6 inches at midnight Sunday.
Douglas County Sheriff's officers said the family took shelter in their basement because they had heard the storm was severe.
Strong wind struck the house, ripping the roof off and causing heavy damage to the home's exterior. No one was injured.
The family could not be reached for comment.
Storms also struck central Oklahoma, where tornadoes and strong winds demolished homes and businesses.

At least nine tornadoes hit Oklahoma, according to weather agencies.

UMKC to test mettle of Kansas volleyball
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Halfway through the regular season, the 10-5 Kansas volleyball team wants to measure its progress.
Middle blocker Amanda Reves said the Jayhawks would use their match at 7 p.m. tomorrow at UMKC to see how far they have come since the start of the season.
VOLLEYBALL
"You can't get where you want to go overnight, but it'll be a chance for us to see what we need to work on," Reves said.
The Jayhawks are in the midst of a three-match losing streak — No. 25 Kansas State, No. 3 Nebraska and No. 12 Colorado have all defeated Kansas during the last week and a half.
It is their first losing streak of the season, and it doesn't get any easier.
The Big 12 Conference part of the schedule has presented the biggest challenge for the Jayhawks. They are 1-3 against league opponents, with their only win coming in the conference opener at Oklahoma.
But the Jayhawks, who finished 2-18 in
the conference last year, remain optimistic. They want to finish in the middle of the Big 12 pack — a goal that is still attainable.
The Jayhawks have been disappointed in their own performance and could identify instances where the games could have gone either way.
Despite the faster tempo of their dominating opponents, the Jayhawks have discovered they have the potential to hang with nationally-ranked teams.
After the loss to Kansas State, setter Laura Rohde said they were able to stay with the Wildcats despite an off-night from the Kansas starters.
Rohde said their own lapses hurt them and fixing those mistakes could result in the realization of their goals.
Coach Ray Bechard said the match at UMKC would provide an opportunity to work on some of those things.
Beachard said UMKC was a competitive team that would challenge the Jayhawks.
"They are getting us at their place, and I'm sure it's one of the biggest matches on their schedule." Bechard said.
Kansas, who defeated UMKC last season three games to one, was led by Reves and outside hitter Moira Donovan, who each posted 17 kills during the match.

Record setting runners honored
Track champion Santee set 11 Big7 conference titles
By Cal Butcher
Special to the Kansan
Editors note: This is the first in a series of stories about Kansas all-time running greats, leading up to the NCAA Cross Country Championships Nov. 23 at Rim Rock Farm North of Lawrence.
Cal Butcher, Pueblo, Colo., graduate student and track announcer, has written the following account of Wes Santee's accomplishments.
Wes Santee never won an Olympic medal. He is not a member of the National Track and Field Hall of Fame. He never even broke the four-minute mile barrier.
But in the six weeks following Roger Bannister's historic achievement, it was Kansas'Santee from Ashland who captured the attention of the American track and field scene.
On May 6,1954, England's Bannis-
CatchingUp with the PAST
became the first man ever to run a mile in less than four minutes. During a two week stretch from May 29-June 12, Santee, fresh out of school, ran the next three fastest miles ever recorded.
Santee is being honored as one of Kansas' most outstanding distance runners of all-time. Former Kansas coach Bob Timmons has adorned Rim Rock Farm, Kansas' home cross country course and the site of the 1998 NCAA Division I and II Cross Country Championships, with life-sized silhouettes depicting seven of the most successful runners in Kansas history. Glenn Cunningham, Al Frame, John Lawson, Billy Mills, Jim Ryun, Wes Santee and Herb Semper.
Only 23 days after Bannister's world record time of 3:59.4 in Oxford, England, Santee ran 4:01.3 in Kansas City to set an American record in the mile.
One week later, he completed his remarkable fortnight with a 4:00.7 in Los Angeles. At that point, Wes Santee had run three of the four fastest times ever recorded in the mile.
The following week in Compton, Calif., he lowered his best to 4:00.6. In this race, his 3:42.8 time at the 1,500 meter mark was recognized as a world record.
While running for Kansas, Santee was an individual Big 7 Conference Champion 11 times. NCAA Champion three times and a member of the 1953 National Championship Cross Country team.
KANSAS
From 1952-1954, Santee won six consecutive conference mile championships, three indoor and three outdoor. In 1952, he was the NCAA Champion in the 5,000 Meter Run. In 1953, he captured the NCAA Championship in the Mile Run. He was named the KU Relays Most Outstanding Performer in 1952 and 1954.
Wes Santee ran track and cross country for Kansas in the 1950s. Santee was a three-time national champion and member of the 1953 national championship team. Photo contributed by the University of Kansas Archives.
In 1953, his first place individual finish led the Jayhawks to the NCAA Cross Country team title. He is a member of the Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame.
In addition to his silhouette, runners at the Rim Rock Farm will recognize the Wes Santee Switchback, located just past the one-mile mark.
During his career, Santee held three world records — two in the indoor mile and one, his 3:42.8 as he passed the 1,500 meter mark on his way to the second-fastest mile ever, in the outdoor 1,500.
The next year, he broke his own record with a time of 4.03 s
In 1954, his final season as a Jayhawk, he clocked a 4:04.9, the fastest time ever for an indoor mile.
The next year, he broke his own record with a time of 4.063. Santee will be attending the Kansas track and cross country reunion held in conjunction with the 1998 NCAA Cross Country Championships.
Commentary
Fan salutes the marching band
Music, majesty add magic to KU football
Let's talk about bands — specifically marching bands.
The KU Marching Jayhawks and Bob Foster, director of KU bands, have a tradition that is hard to beat.
The band marches down the Hill prior to games, and I know of few experiences that compare to picnicking near the Campanile with my family as white-shosed band members flatten the grass on their way to the stadium.
The band's pregame assault on the field from the north bowl also is inspiring. Students in red and blue, carrying their instruments, stream down the stairs and onto the field.
And the gold-plated Sousaphones — how can anyone top them?
I've always found the band tradition mysterious but fun.
In high school, I watched the Marysville High School marching band when I was a freshman. But for the final three years, I played varsity football and was not able to watch the band.
Several of my friends were band members, and they endured the warm, muggy Friday nights of early September and the bitterly cold evening of late October.
However, having never participated in band, having never worn a decorative band uniform complete with feathers emerging from an unusually shaped hat and having no musical ability. I can comment on bands only from a football fan's standpoint.
So, this is not a music critique.
I appreciate the time and effort shown by the KU band. The Star Spangled Banner and the school anthem would be difficult to sing without the band. And fans would have a terrible time knowing when to wave the wheat if it weren't for the KU band.
But, I think we also can improve the game
day experience and everyone's appreciation of the band.

Unfortunately, when the band plays on the east side of Memorial Stadium. I can hear only the pounding drums, not the song.
Meanwhile, the sounds of the opposing team's band,
Why not move the band to the bleachers in the south end zone or to a spot in the north bowl!

In the south end zone, the band could be heard by all KU fans in the stadium. And every time Kansas scored or television cameras swung that direction to get a shot of beautiful Mount Oread, national TV audiences would see the Marching Jayhawks.
which sits in the North bowl, assault my ears.
"We sit where the Athletics Department lets us sit." Foster said.
With the new video screen in place next fall, wands would have to check out the band once in a while as they watched a Zac Wegner touchdown pass replayed.
So, what are the chances of the band moving?
I asked Foster, professor of music and
He said the band had experts from the speech and hearing clinic at the University measure the sound while the band played from different spots in the stadium.
dance and director of KU bands, why the band sits where it does.
The south bleachers would be a bad place because nothing behind them would reflect the sound into the stadium.
The optimal place for the band, according to the study, would be at the 50 yard line with the back of the band against the walkway that separates the upper and lower seating.
Unfortunately, that is prime seating for alumni, and the current band seating is a compromise of the best available seating and sound quality.
One last comment before I march away from the subject.
My compliments to all the Jayhawk fans who showed class Saturday.
instead of pelting the Texas A&M band as Missouri fans did to us a few weeks ago, many in the stadium honored the precision marching of the Fightin' Texas Aggle Band with a standing ovation or at least apollause.
You responded well to a great show.
Friedrichs is a Bremen graduate student in journalism.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 6).
Put your money in order this year and you can have what you want. Don't, and you can't. It's as simple as that. Make up your schedule for the right year now. Put in corrections in December, because of unforeseen changes. Buy what you need for your home in January, and celebrate with loved ones by doing something different in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You'll get an opportunity to take action, probably early in the day. Be careful. One of the options is not as it appears. Check everything carefully before deciding, and give yourself a way out. Hold off on significant financial decisions until tomorrow.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 6.
You've been under pressure lately to do what someone else wants, and you've been good at it. You like to serve other people, especially if your own needs are being met. Right now, you want to take the bull by the horns. Make sure you get your part of the deal, now that you've provided what the other person needed.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Deadlines are looming. By tomorrow, you'll be under so much pressure it might be difficult to think clearly.
So get as much done today as possible. It's important to do things perfectly, but you have got a little leeway. If you get it done at least perfluorocot for now, you can put in the final correction later.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
A friend could give you an excellent tip today about how to increase your income. This has been a prevalent theme all this week and continues through the month. The objective is obvious. Now, all you have to do is figure out what you need to do to make it happen
Lee (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 7.
Mind your P's and Q's today, pay attention to what you're doing and make sure you play according to the rules. Somebody is watching you, possibly with a promotion in mind. You also will do well to show how smart you are. Don't do that by talking too much. Do it by asking the other person intelligent questions.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
Your biggest barrier to success is your own intellect.
You're so smart and cautious, you can see problems that do not even exist yet. That's good if you solve them before they happen. But sometimes all you do is scare yourself out of starting something new. Today, don't let that happen.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
You're getting smarter, or at least you should be.
You're capable of taking on more responsibility, and more could be coming your way. You may not feel like you're ready for it yet, but don't let that stop you.
If necessary, you can get a coach, but accept the challenge.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
What one friend says about another is important today, so find out what's been going on behind the scenes.
One of your favorite stool pigeons is ready to talk, but only if you catch him or early in the day. Later on, the information will be much more difficult to acquire
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is a 7.
Your work is more of a grind than usual life. If possible, get someone else to do it. Perhaps you could get the whole team involved. By spreading a tough job around, it becomes more enjoyable, and that's one of your primary motivations right now.
2
LIVE MUSEUM
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You'd like to break free from confinement, but it's only partially possible. A structure you've set up inhibits you now. Don't you just hate it when that happens? You'd better go by the rules, though, or nobody else will, either.
Y
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
You may feel scatterbrained, but you'll calm. Tomorrow and the next day should be good for learning. Hold off on spending much money until then. You'll be better able to figure out whether you can afford it. Don't go into debt trying to make a good impression.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19); Today is a 5.
You're getting a boost from a loved one as you advance in your career. Let that person know what you have in mind. You also are getting a shove toward learning. If you haven't gone back to school, give it another thought.
An educational program started now should turn out well; it could be your key to higher earnings.

Five KU students place in martial arts meet
People from all across the world gathered last weekend in Houston for the 1998 KUK Sool Won World Tournament. Eight members of the Kansas KUK Sool Won club participated in the tournament's 40th anniversary.

Abbey Harper, Neodesha freshman, scored both tries for the Jayhawks. In the second round, Marquette Uni-
teda, Kansas 19-0.
"We were pretty disappointed with the way the second game turned out," Harper said.
In the second round, Marquette University topped Kansas 18-0.
Coach John Wiley said he was pleased with his team's performance.
"We haven't played on a muddy field yet this season, so I didn't know what to expect," he said. "We certainly could have played better, but I'm happy with the effort the team gave out there."
Men's rugby team collects first victory
The Kansas men's rugby club played three games this weekend in the Heart Of America Tournament in Kansas City, Mo., and collected the team's first win of the season.
The Jayhawks defeated Rockhurst College 7-0 in the second round of the tournament. Kansas was beaten by Northern Iowa 14-7 in the first round, and, on Sunday, lost to Truman State 5-0.
Oliver Parkinson, Prairie Village freshman, scored the winning try against Rockhurst College on an 80-meter breakaway run.
"When you do long runs in practice, it always makes you feel energized." Parkinson said. "But after that run, I was exhausted for a few minutes."
Ryan Kiliany, Kansas City, Kan., senior and team captain, said he was proud of the young team.
Ryan Crosby, Topeka junior, scored for the lashawks in the first game.
"We've got a lot of rookies on the team this year, and they all made it through the ugly half of the schedule," Kilian said. "The team is coming together, and the second half of the season is going to be a bit easier.
The Jayhawks will play a rematch against Rockhurst Saturday in Kansas' first home game of the season.

Nebraska, Texas A&M Texas players honored
DALLAS — Texas running back Ricky Williams, Texas A&M linebacker D Nguyen and Nebraska

Williams
ties and five touchdowns as the bounces beat Iowa State 54-33.
Williams broke the school mark set by Roosevelt Leaks. Leaks had 342 yards rushing against SMU in 1973. Williams also caught two passes for 17 yards and topped the Texas game record for all-purpose yards with 367. He also broke the NCAA Division IA record for back-to-back rushing performances with a composite 668 yards (including 318 against Rice on Sep. 26). Wisconsin's Ron Dayne held the prior standard with 628 yards in 1996.

73-yard punt return for a touchdown
against Oklahoma State. He ended

Huskers' 24-17 conference victory.
Jordan denies leaving film because of salary
CHICAGO — Michael Jordan denied yesterday in court that he failed to go through with making the movie Heaven is a Playground because of the relatively small amount of money he would have received.
The Chicago Bulls superstar had agreed to appear in the 1991 movie for $350,000, and he later signed a $4 million deal to make the space Movie Jam.
Robert Maland, lawyer for the producers of Heaven, asked Jordan if that gave his agent sufficient incentive to steer him away from the movie. "Alive," he added.
"No." Jordan said.
Jordan and agent David Falk contend the producers of Heaven failed to come up with adequate financing.
Jordan said he would have wanted to consider making a different movie if he had not been tied to Heaven
He said, however, that he did not know if any other movie offers came to his agent at the time.
The movie ultimately was made with former Loyola Marymount star Bo Kimble in the role Jordan had agreed to play. *Heaven* bombed at the box office.
The producers are seeking between $16 million and $20 million in damages, which is what the producers believe could have been the film's profit if Jordan had starred in the movie.
Jordan maintains both sides agreed to postpone the film.

Blue sweatshirts, good seats would cut back football losses
Mayday, mayday, the bandwagon is on the verge of dismantling and the wheels are about to fall off. That's all that I'm going to say about Saturday's game.
There is no need to relive the pain.
If you've been reading my columns this year, you probably
"Who is this guy who writes about wrestling?"
"Who is this dreamer who thinks KU's football program will be a top 10 team in two years?"
"Who does this clown think he is?"
I was born and raised in Jayhawk country. Therefore, I am a fan first, a columnist second and a joker third. The second and third are interchangeable. you like.
Through the years, something has bothered me at the University.
What is that, you ask?
Is it the people on buses who think their bags deserve a seat?
Is it the people who walk on the sidewalk and stop for no apparent reason?
Or is it the people in a large auditorium class who kick the back of your seat when you are trying to catch some well-deserved shutey?
I'll tell you what's been aggravating me.
When we, as students, attend football and men's basketball games, we are treated like second-class citizens. Never have I seen
paying customers treated so poorly.
The renovations at the stadium are unbelievable. It's money well spent. The lower section for the season ticket holders looks like the Taj Mahal.
[Name]
However, the
Tony
Pacheco
student concession section still looks like a garage. Why?
Another thing is that the marching band plays to the alumni side all the time. On Saturday, I think I heard a whole two minutes of a song. I know they must do this to please the alumni and keep the money rolling in, but I'd like to hear a little bit more.
Finally, the seating at the basketball games is ridiculous. The student seats are among the worst in the house. Behind the backboard and in dark corners, student seating is a real treat.
In addition to that, we have to be there three weeks prior to a big game to get a decent seat.
So let's move on to another subject.
I, like everyone else, have fallen in love with my white and gray Jayhawk shirts. But for once, I would love to go to a Jayhawk game and see all the fans wearing the same color.
Several years ago, I attended a Jayhawk football game in Lincoln, Neb., and seeing all those fans in red made me jealous. It displayed team spirit.
When I came home, the crowd at Memorial Stadium looked like a guilt of many different colors.
Why don't we all wear blue at the next home game? It would be nice to see the crowd waving the wheat and decked out in blue.
Call me nuts, but I have faith that you will accept my challenge and wear blue in two weeks.

Court ruling strikes blow to the NCAA
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Even before the NCAA lost a Supreme Court appeal yesterday, settlement talks began with coaches awarded almost $67 million from the NCAA.
The NCAA is looking at a total bill of about $80 million, including legal fees, said NCAA spokesman Wally Renfro.
A lawyer for the coaches said the latest offer probably will be increased
since the Supreme Court yesterday let stand a ruling that the NCAA acted unlawfully in capping coaches' salaries.
Last May, a federal jury awarded damages amounting to about $67 million to entry-level coaches whose annual salaries had been capped at $16000.
The total figure of about $80 million has alarmed NCAA schools.
How the money will be spread among
NCAA schools also is a touchy political issue. Small schools want big schools to pay the lion's share while most big schools think the pain should be shared equally because the restricted-earnings rule was agreed upon by nearly all 300 Division I schools.
The NCAA still has several post-trial motions pending. Once those motions are decided, the NCAA could appeal them to the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.
The case could continue for another year or two.

Colorado, Texas Tech hold perfect records in Big 12
DALLAS—Heading into the second Saturday of October, two Big 12 teams are 5-0 and 2-0 in league play. Surprisingly, those schools are Colorado and Texas Tech.
The Associated Press
The No. 14 Buffaloes and almostranked Red Raiders have overcome a laundry list of injuries to get off to perfect starts, even if their play has
sometimes been far from perfect.
CUJ
Colorado has won each of its last two games by two
points, coming from behind in the fourth quarter to beat Baylor 18-16 and recovering a late onside kick to help preserve a 27-25 victory over Oklahoma last weekend.
The Red Raiders beat Baylor 31-29 last weekend when referees waved off a late two-point conversion by the
Tech outscored its first two opponents 65-3 but has won each of its last three games by seven or fewer points.
Bears. Two weeks before, Tech beat Fresno State 34-28 because of a touchdown following a late fumble recovery.
Having lost to both Tech and Colorado by a total of four points, Baylor coach Dave Roberts has seen the good and bad qualities of the Big 12's two team.
Until then, coaches Rick Neuheisel and Spike Dykes deserve to enjoy the view from on top. Colorado has matched last year's win total, and the Red Raiders are off to their best start since 1976.
The Big 12 division races should start narrowing this weekend as Colorado plays host to No. 5 Kansas State, No. 2 Nebraska plays at No. 18 Texas A&M and the Red Raiders welcome the Cowboys a week after Oklahoma State took the Cornhuskers to the wire.
"We're not apologizing for where we are," Dykes said yesterday during a conference call between league coaches and reporters. "It's a good feeling. But we know it's not far back to reality. From the penthouse to the outhouse, it's just about 60 minutes."
"We've got to get ourselves playing more consistently if we're going to make a game of it. But I think our guys have rallied every time I've called on them."
Colorado was picked to finish behind Nebraska and Kansas State in the Big 12 North. But a victory this weekend would go a long way in proving the Buffaloes are for real. "We're excited to be 5-0, but we have got our hands full this week," Neuheisel said. "Kansas State is as good a team as I've seen on tape in a long time.
Tech running back Ricky Williams has been the team's star so far, but quarterback Rob Peters stole the show last weekend. Peters was injured in the season opener, and replacement Matt Tittle struggled against Baylor
FRED HUGHES
Neuheisel: Knowss Kansas State will be a tough team.
It was Peters' chance to lead the team again.
"It was nice to see him execute in the manner in which we expected," Dykes said. "He knocked some rust off early. He made some mistakes, don't get me wrong, but he did play well."
Dykes said he is not disappointed to be unranked, pointing out that the Red Raiders began the year out of voters' minds and haven't beaten big-name teams.
"We're used to it," he said.
Kansas coach Terry Allen is not happy about his team's 2-3 start.
Kansas
especially not compared to being 4-1 at this point last season. But Allen he is convinced the Jayhawks are better this year.
KU
"As a whole.
it's obviously disappointing," he said. "We haven't gained the confi
ence we need to get over the hump in those (close) games. Being close for young people today is good enough. It isn't for us. It's very frustrating."
Baylor
with 1:10 left.
When Jermaine Alfred hit Derris Thompson in the end zone on a twopoint conversion try, it appeared that Baylor had tied Texas Tech with 110 lft.
BU
But referee John Laurie ruled the pass incomplete because he said Alfred stepped on the sideline before he threw the ball.
After seeing replays, Baylor coach Dave Roberts did not want to talk about it.
"We've taken a look at it and done what we're supposed to do," he said. "I can't comment on that. I can't comment on anything."
Missouri
Missouri coach Larry Smith said quarterback Corby Jones has a swollen, sprained big toe that will keep him out of practice for several days and could keep him out of Saturday's game against Iowa State.
"After the game, it wasn't swollen," Smith said. "But overnight, it really blew up; that's
what really has us concerned. If there's any chance Corby Jones can play, he'll want to play. But there
M
has to be some sense to it. That's a question nobody can really answer right now."
Smith said Missouri would stick with the option even if Jones were not the one running it. But Cyclones coach Dan McCarney would be happy not to face Jones.
"Corby is one of the best athletes and quarterbacks in the Big 12 and country," McCarney said. "He can hurt you in so many ways. He's one of the toughest athletes and quarterbacks I've ever seen. He gives you the extra dimension."

Missile strike secretively planned
WASHINGTON — Most members of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were unaware of the planning for the Aug. 20 cruise missile strike on suspected terrorist strongholds in Afghanistan and Sudan until days before the weapons were launched, defense officials confirmed yesterday.
Planning methods OK, Pentagon says
The Pentagon defended its highly secretive and compartmented approach to the raid as appropriate to the sensitivity of the mission and in conformance with the military chain of command.
The Associated Press
Last-minute recommendations by the service chiefs resulted in one proposed target being deleted as too risky. And after the raid, service chiefs have voiced no objections to the short notice they were given,
said senior defense officials who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The Aug. 20 Tomahawk missile strikes hit a purported terrorist training camp in Afghanistan and the Al Shifa pharmaceutical factory in Khartoum, Sudan. President Clinton said the Khartoum raid was justified because evidence of a nerve gas component had been found at the plant. Sudanese officials and some critics in the United States have questioned the validity of the evidence linking the plant to terrorist activity.
An article in this week's New Yorker magazine by investigative writer Seymour Hersh said the White House overruled Attorney General Janet Reno when she questioned whether evidence linking Islamic extremist Osama bin Laden to the bombings of two U.S. embassies in Africa was strong enough to justify retaliatory attacks.
It also said the White House kept planning for raids so secret that only the chairman of the five-member Joint Chiefs of Staff and FBI
Director Louis Freeh learned of the strikes a matter of days before the missiles were launched.
Some elements of Hersh's article had been published previously, including the small circle of officials who were involved with
1
Reno: Questioned evidence concerning bombing.
strike planning — Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, national security adviser Sandy Berger, Defense Secretary William Cohen, Army Gen. Henry H. Shelton, chairman of the Joint Chiefs; CIA Director
George Tenet and Marine Gen. Anthony Zinni, head of the U.S. Central Command, which is responsible for military operations in the Mideast.
Under the 1988 Goldwater-Nichols act, military strike decisions go to the president from the four-star field commanders who head U.S. military operations in several geographic regions. Participation of the service chiefs in military operations planning is not required under the law.
Army Lt. Gen, Patrick Hughes, head of the Defense Intelligence Agency, was not consulted before the raid, and the administration had considered and then rejected striking a suspected chemical weapons facility outside Khartoum, Sudan, because of its proximity to a diplomatic residential neighborhood.
"As is appropriate for any sensitive military operation, planning was limited to those who needed to be involved," Pentagon representative Kenneth Bacon said in a statement.
U.S. envoy seeks peaceful solution in Kosovo
The Associated Press
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — WITH NATO attacks said to be only days away, a top U.S. envoy arrived yesterday with an 11th-hour warning to Yugoslavia's president to halt the crackdown on ethnic Albanians in Kosovo or face air strikes.
Richard Holbrooke began talks with Slobodan Milosevic yesterday evening after arriving from Brussels, Belgium, where he met with senior NATO officials.
Before boarding a plane for Belgrade, Holbrooke said conditions in the southern Serbian province had not improved.
Holbrookne negotiated the peace deal with Milosevic and other Balkan leaders that ended the 31/2-year Bosnian war in 1995.
In Washington, President Clinton said Milosevic was making false promises to avoid NATO military strikes.
As Holbrooke tried to resolve the crisis through negotiations, British Foreign Secretary Robin Cook said a decision on NATO military action was imminent.
"We are getting ready for NATO action, and later this week we will expect a decision to be taken," Cook said after a special session of the Cabinet called by Prime Minister Tony Blair.
In Brussels, NATO officials said they were ready to launch air strikes within hours of receiving an order to attack.
At the United Nations, Secretary-General Kofi Annan said Yugoslavian forces had increased their attacks on Kosovo's ethnic Albanians even after a U.N. resolution demanded a cease-fire.
In a report to the Security Council, Annan said it was clear that Yugoslavian forces were responsible for the bulk of human rights violations.
Ethnic Albanians in Kosovo are seeking autonomy as they had until 1989, if not independence, from Yugoslavia. Albanians in the province outnumber Serbs 9-to-1.
Meanwhile, Yugoslavia's prime minister told the parliament yesterday that the country was faced with the danger of war.
The prime minister also said
"I call on this parliament to conclude that Yugoslavia is faced with the imminent danger of war. Yugoslavia has to defend itself if it was attacked," Prime Minister Momir Bulatovic said.

there was no more fighting in Kosovo. He said five of the 10 special police units had been removed from the province.
Some army units remain in the field, and there is fear among refugees that violence will resume.

THE JAYHACKER
Academic Computing Services The University of Kansas Lawrence, Kansas Fall 1998
The 1920 University of Kansas Jayhawk
Alma freshman Sara Kelly, Overland Park freshman Erik Hodes, Lincoln, Nebraksa freshman Brandon Smith, and Topeka sophomore Chris Clements have found NESTs to be a convenient way to check their KU e-mail accounts at Anschutz Library. NESTs are also located on the 3rd and 4th floors of Watson Library. Both libraries have a wheelchair-accessible NEST.
EASTERN RAVEN
NESTs: Campus E-mail Perches
One of the latest innovations on the KU campus isn't new technology, but recycling old technology for a new use: convenient e-mail access.
Prompted by suggestions from the Student Senate and championed by Assistant Vice Chancellor Jerry Niebaum, old KU desktop computers, gathering dust in a warehouse, were brought back to life the first week of the fall 98 semester as NESTs: Network Express STations. Now students can check their KU e-mail accounts on FALCON and EAGLE, using the Pine e-mail program, from several convenient campus locations.
A total of 25 NESTs will be installed on campus, with ten NESTs in Watson Library and five in Anschutz Library currently operational, according to Rose Winters, applications program manager at Academic Computing Services (ACS). Five more NESTs will be installed in both the Kansas and Burge Unions later this year. Winters led the ACS team of Networking Specialist Bill Loats, Applications Programmer/Consultant Doug Miller, and LAN Specialist Andrew Sloup who assembled and configured the machines, along with Microcomputer Systems Support Manager Sue Silkey and Budig Hall Computer Lab Supervisor Lydia Ash who coordinated the preparation of NEST sites.
The NESTs installed at the libraries are already seeing a high volume of traffic despite the fact that signs identifying the stations
and explaining their purpose have not yet arrived.
"The fifteen computers were used more than 1,600 times during the week of August 20." said Wes Hubert,ACS associate director.
Future plans for more NESTs around campus and the decision about whether or not to upgrade the machines to include Web access or other services will depend on student response to the machines according to Hubert. For the present, the machines are serving the purpose for which they were intended: providing more access to e-mail for students on campus.
Lisa Hallberg hallberg@ukans.edu
NESTs are easy to use for KU students who are
familiar with the Pine e-mail program, but even a new Pine user can follow the simple on-screen directions to get e-mail from their KU FALCON or EAGLE e-mail account.
All students enrolled at The University of Kansas and University staff are eligible for a free e-mail account on either the FALCON or EAGLE system. To sign up for an e-mail account, simply access the World Wide Web from any networked computer on campus, point your browser to the following location: www.ukans.cc.edu/account.htm, and follow the instructions. Accounts are activated within 48 hours of registration.
Free in Brief brochures explaining the FALCON and EAGLE computer systems (#313), and the Pine e-mail program (#307 & 308) are available at the computer labs in 202 Computer Center, 10 Budig Hall, and 201 Ellsworth Hall, and online at www.cc.ukans.edu/cgiwrap/acs /subject.pl.

City Commission to draft ordinance for rules, parameters

ability to remain open basis Bank
The Lawrence City Commission voted
4-1 to grant The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., city drinking establishment license.
The Hawk previously was under a temporary city license, which contained a condition that the bar close at midnight.
"I think the commission made a logical decision tonight," said Matthew All, The Hawk owner John Heleniak's attorney.
However, The Hawk's and other neighborhood bars' closing times could be affected should the city approve an ordinance in the next few months.
In a separate vote, the commission unanimously approved a motion to direct city staff to draft an ordinance that
would set parameters for and impose new regulations on neighborhood bars.
David Corliss, city director of legal services, said the ordinance should reflect the Oread neighborhood's concerns.
"We're trying to prohibit the problems that have been articulated this evening," he said. "We would have to draft an ordinance that would target at that issue."
Commissioner Erv Hodges said a compromise allowing The Hawk to remain open until 2 a.m. on weekends and midnight during the week could be a possibility.
All said that he and Heleniak were open-minded but that The Hawk wouldn't accept a decision that would cause the bar to lose money.
"It would be illogical and unreasonable for the owner of The Hawk to support a measure that would put it out of business." All said.
Commissioner Bonnie Augustine was concerned that closing The Hawk at midnight would be unfair because the ordinance could not be drafted in a reasonable amount of time.

A historical look at impeachments
Three presidents preceded Clinton
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
President Bill Clinton is battling for his political and legal life as an impeachment vote looms tomorrow, but he is not the first American president to face charges from Congress.
Jonathan Earle, assistant professor of history, said Presidents Andrew Jackson and Andrew Johnson were the first to face congressional inquiry in the 1800s.
Jackson faced congressional ir when he opposed the creation of a national bank, Earle said. A majority of the members of Congress wanted the national bank and thought that Jackson's opposition to the idea would send the country into an economic depression.
When Jackson would not change his mind, Congress censured him in 1835 for what it considered irresponsible behavior, Earle said. The censure was not lifted until several years later.
Earle said, "To show his strong position, Jackson said, 'The bank is trying to kill me, but I shall kill it'"
A more serious and successful effort to actually impeach a president came during Johnson's term in 1868.
The political landscape was rough for Johnson because he came into office without being elected, Earle said. He was President Abraham Lincoln's vice-president when Lincoln was assassinated.
There was great tension between northern and southern states debating the issue of slavery. Johnson was caught in the middle of the debate, Earle said, because while Johnson was anti-slavery he did not support some of the harsh punishments for the South that other Republicans favored.
Earle said Johnson came under great pressure from Congress concerning his policies. Then he vetoed the Tenure of Office Act, which allowed Congress to approve or reject presidential appointments.
When Johnson named a new Secretary of War, Congress accused
him of breaking the law, Earle said. The House Judiciary Committee and the full body voted for impeachment.
PRESIDENT
The Senate spared his presidency by one vote.
Clinton: isn't the only president to face impeachment.
Loomis said that the independent counsel statutes had not been enacted during Nixon's era but were created because of Nixon. At one point in Nixon's investigation, he fired the prosecutor appointed by the attorney general.
"They thought he
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said President Richard Nixon's actions also landed him in a position to be impeached in 1974.
thought he was a poor president, but enough members of Congress knew it was not a good precedent," Earle said.
"There was such a firestorm of complaint that a new prosecutor had to be appointed that he (the new prosecutor) had to be left alone." Loomis said.
Impact on Loomis said the cultural climate was different today because there is greater public pressure for the release of information. He said a new option also being proposed to Congress was a public rebuke rather than censure or impeachment.
The charges that Nixon faced included lying and obstruction of justice, but he resigned before the Senate conducted or voted on his impeachment.
Loan bill would benefit students
Bv Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
President Bill Clinton is expected to approve a bill today that would decrease interest rates on students loans and increase grant maximums.
The bill was approved by Congress last week, including an unanimous House of Representatives vote of 96-0.
With 48 percent of University of Kansas students receiving some form of financial aid, this bill would help save them money in the long run.
The rates became effective July 1, but were only temporary and were scheduled to expire Sept. 30. Congress voted to pass the bill and expend the expiration date to June 30, 2003.
exceed the expired Maureen McLaughlin, deputy assistant secretary of policy planning and innovation at the U.S. Department of Education, said that a five-year bill was normal, and the bill would most likely get re-approved in 2003.
Diane Del Buono, director of the University's student financial aid, said that the students would benefit from the change when they began paying back loans.
likely get a reprieve. The student loan interest rates, which are based on treasury bill rates and are adjusted annually, dropped from 8.23 percent last year to 7.46 this year. This is the lowest student loan interest rate in 17 years.
"Finally, they're taking our considerations into hand and not just the college's," said Tamara Hayward, Topeka sophomore who has student loans. "I'm already worried about all the loans I'll have when I graduate. So it's nice to know that it will be a little lower."

increase in Pell Grant maximunms from $3,000 to $4,500. The plan is to gradually increase this amount, so that by 2003-2004, $5,800 would be authorized to students.
authorized to stack Del Buono said that these amounts will not benefit students until the actual amount is appropriated.
She said that in 1992 Congress authorized $4,500 for the 1997-98 year, but only appropriated $2,700 to the schools.
"It's a good thing that they're doing this now rather than later, any little bit is going to help," said Jay Lovett, Hutchinson freshman who receives a grant.
The bill also includes about $300 million in new grant programs for next year. One program, a loan-forgiveness proposal, would forgive up to $5,000 in loans for new teachers if they agree to work for a rural or urban district.
Senate to consider powwow funding
By Seth Jones
By Sean Jones
Kansan staff writer
Think of Student Senate as the godfather of KU campus organizations.
This year, Senate has $62,175 of unallocated money to disburse to student groups. Last year it overspent its $60,089 budget. Money becomes the question again tonight when Senate decides whether it should give the First Nations Student Association $7,160 for its annual nowow.
David Reynoldson, Student Senate treasurer, said if Senate used all of its money, it still had means to fund groups.
"We have a reserve account set aside for emergencies," he said. "When we ran out of money last year we pulled from that account."
Reynoldson said that spending all the money before the year ended was unusual.
"We try to fund as many groups that are worthy of funding that come through," he said. "We don't want to set a trend of taking from the reserve account. It should be

Vestal to serve for death of Rosel
Sophomore to spend his weekends in jail
At the 4:30 p.m. hearing, Vestal, Englewood, Colo., sophomore, learned he would serve 30 days in jail, 200 hours of community service and three years probation for involuntary manslaughter.
Tears and tension filled the Division II courtroom of the Douglas County District Court yesterday when Matthew Vestal was sentenced for the March 31 death of Overland Park freshman Lisa Rosel.
Vestal struck Rosel, who had fallen in the intersection of 14th and Tennessee streets, with his Mitsubishi Montero while driving south on Tennessee Street. He pleaded guilty Aug.31.
batter for his sentence also includes a $1,000 fine,
court costs and a probation fee. A special
condition of his probation is that he cannot go to any establishment where the
income comes primarily from alcohol.
Rosel's family members were in court for the sentencing and testified before District Court Judge Jack Murphy, attorneys, media, Rosel's friends and Vestal about the tragedy of Lisa Rosel's death.
"It's not faceless," he said of the crime. "I want you to see what I'm missing. I want everyone here to know."
"I pray each day, and I cry each day," said Walter Rosel, Lisa Rosel's father. Sobbing, he showed a school picture of Lisa to the judge, Vestal and the courtroom. Family and friends wept with Walter Rosel, and throughout the sentencing.
Vestal declined to speak at the hearing and stood still and silent as Murphy read his sentence.
David Achtenberg, Lisa Rosel's uncle and the family's representative, asked for a sentence that would make other young people think long and hard about driving under the influence.
"We ask that the court be sure that every opportunity be given to Mr. Vestal so he can change, and so he can turn his life around," Achtenberg said.
his sentence.
Vestal will serve his jail sentence on weekends beginning Oct. 16, as agreed to in his Aug. 31 plea agreement. The 30 days he will serve, however, exceed the 14-day sentence outlined in the agreement. Vestal's sentence of 200 hours of community service is also an increase compared to the plea agreement.
complex to the point.
"I think this more appropriately reflects the seriousness of the events," Murphy said.
Vestal already has begun a required 60 hours of outpatient care and treatment at DCCCA, 3312 Clinton Parkway, a drug and alcohol treatment center.
After the sentencing, Vestal's attorneys, released a written statement from the Vestal family.
"Matt has accepted responsibility for his part in what can only be described as a tragic accident," the statement read. "Also, we hope that Matt's willingness to step forward serves as an example for the all too many students who have engaged in the same conduct as Matt and Ms. Rosel but who have been fortunate to avoid a similar tragedy."
District Attorney Christine Tonkovich said the verdict was appropriate given the facts of the case.
"This is a tragic crime the justice system cannot repair," she said. "Our hope is that at least some lessons will be learned from this."
Before the accident, Vestal had been at The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St., and had a blood-alcohol content of .081. Angela Boley, Lawrence sophomore, said that Rosel had been drinking at Bull Winkles Bar, 1344 Tennessee St. Her blood alcohol content was .097. In Kansas, the legal limit for drivers under 21 is .02, and for those older than 21 it is .08.

Air Force ROTC cadets to give out T-shirts, hats
University of Kansas Air Force ROTC cadets will hand out hats, T-shirts and frisbees on Wescoe Beach from 10:30 a.m. to 1.p.m. today as a part of a new recruitment tactic on campus.
Last Wednesday, Air Force ROTC cadets gave hamburgers to pass-by in front of Wescoe Hall. Students were offered information about Air Force opportunities but were not asked to sign anything. Cadets helped those who wanted more information to fill out a request for a brochure.
Maj. Daniel Staggenborg, assistant professor of Air Force ROTC, said he thought Wednesday's event was a success, and he was pleased with the turnout.
"The promotional events are good because they draw attention to the program and increase awareness of the BOTC on campus." Staggenbord said.
Cadet Gabe Hunninghake, Topeka freshman, passed out information at last week's promotion and said that at least 20 people seemed to be interested in the Air Force ROTC.
The give-away event today will be similar to last Wednesday's, Staggenborg said.
He said the Air Force ROTC decided to try promotional events after watching how phone- and credit card companies effectively marketed themselves last year.
Although other schools had done com parable activities, this was the first time the Air Force ROTC had financed such an event at the University, he said.
"I would expect us to continue doing similar events here at KU in the future," Staggenborg said.

Investigators proclaim father killed family
ABILENE — Investigators have concluded that financial and domestic problems led a father to shoot his wife and three young daughters, then commit suicide.
That explanation is not a surprise because Abilene police and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation have been investigating the deaths of the five family members as four murders and a suicide.
The Dickinson County coroner, Steven Schwarting, reached the same conclusion, basing it on preliminary autopsy results. His determination was made public yesterday by Jim Davis, Abilene's public safety director.
The victims were Douglas L. Bowen,
28; his wife, Sandra L. "Sandy"
Bowen, 25, and their daughters,
Amanda, 6; Sierra, 4; and Victoria, 2.
The wife and girls were found dead in
the family's trailer home last Wednesday
night.
Bowen, the husband and father, was found critically wounded inside the trailer. He died Thursday at a Wichita hospital.
In a statement, Abilene police said they believe Bowen shot his wife and children with a shotgun, then used a small-caliber handgun to shoot himself. Both guns were recovered from the trailer.
Final autopsy reports are not likely until next week, said KBI Special Agent Scott Teeselink.
Olathe man's body found with gunshots
BURLINGTON — Law enforcement officers spread out across east-central Kansas yesterday, looking for clues in the killing of an Olathe man whose body was found with multiple gunshot wounds.
The Kansas Bureau of Investigation has seven agents working on the case, said Special Agent Scott Teeselink.
Michael J. Leitner, 37, was believed to have been killed Friday night or early Saturday, Coffey County Sheriff Randy Royster said.
"This is an execution-style murder." Rogers said in a statement.
A resident found Leitner's body Saturday morning in a road in rural southern Coffe County. Leitner had formerly lived in the town of Toronto, in the southwestern part of neighboring Wood son County.
Teeselink said investigators are fanning out to interview acquaintances, hoping to find someone who saw Leitner alive in the 36 hours before the discovery of his body.
Woman and son killed in car, minivan collision
EMPORIA — A woman and her 7-year-old son were killed when their minivan was hit head-on by a pickup truck in east-central Kansas, officials said.
Wayne A. McMurphey of Emporia was pronounced dead at the scene of Monday's accident, Lt. Charles Pankratz said. His mother, Victoria McMurphey, 36, died later at a hospital.
McMurphy's three daughters and the driver of the pickup were also injured.
The driver of the pickup, who was traveling north, came up behind several other vehicles that had slowed for a car attempting to make a left turn, Pankratz said. The driver could not slow down in time and turned his pickup into the left lane and clipped a car before hitting McMurphy's minivan.
The family was traveling south on a Lyon County road about 4:30 p.m. Monday when their minivan was hit by a pickup truck, Pankratz said.
Williams, 13, Donnetta L. McMurphey, 11, and Ashley M. McMurphey, 10, were taken to an area hospital. The girls' father did not want their conditions released, hospital staff said.

TAMPA, Fla. — The U.S. Department of Justice added its name to a lawsuit that accuses Columbia/HCA Healthcare Corp. and Quorum Health Group of cheating Medicare with false claims.
McMurphey's daughters, Miranda I.
The suit, which was unsealed Monday, alleged that the two national hospital chains routinely submitted false claims to Medicare and other federally funded health insurance programs to cheat the government out of money.
The lawsuits is separate from a criminal investigation into Columbia's billing practices, but its complaints are similar to the criminal charges.
Last year, the government filed a criminal complaint accusing four Columbia mid-level managers of conspiring to cheat the government out of $2.8 million by disguising Medicare claims to reap too much money. The men have pleaded not guilty. A trial date has not been set.
Russia makes steps to improve prisons
MOSCOW — Russia's justice minister yesterday proposed a broad amnesty and other steps intended to improve brutal conditions in Russia's decrepit and overcrowded prisons.
The amnesty, which is subject to parliamentary approval, would free more than 100,000 people, or every tenth inmate, this fall, Justice Minister Pavel Krasheninkov said at a news conference.
It would apply to those facing charges or convicted of minor and unpremeditated offenses, he said.
Russia has the world's highest incarceration rate and a long history of brutal prisons and labor camps that date to cirastist times but were greatly expanded under the repressive Soviet regime.
Virtually all of them are rundown and overcrowded, with some cells holding more than 100 inmates. Officials acknowledge that malnutrition, infections, food poisonings, violence among inmates and a tuberculosis rate five times the national average plague the prison system.
Like the rest of Russia, the prison system has suffered a severe funding shortage, which has been worsened recently by the nation's economic crisis. The government-allocated daily food ration now stands at 4.2 cents per prisoner, Krasheninikov said.

Commissioner John Nalbandian voted against granting the license because he didn't want to retract the midnight closing time because a neighborhood bar ordinance might be passed in the near future.

Regent visits University
Campus concerns:
fall break, faculty pay
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
The Board of Regents chairman Bill Docking received a firsthand account of the issues facing students and faculty yesterday at the University of Kansas.
Tom Bryant, Regents' executive director, accompanied Docking to various meetings across campus, which included visits with Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Provost David Shulenburger, Natural History Museum faculty and University Senate Executive Committee members.
During the chairman's yearly trip, he also met with honors students for lunch at Nunemaker Hall. Topics discussed at the lunch included a proposed fall break, faculty salary increases and educational governance issues.
"I am on a fact-finding mission to hear
the interests and concerns of different constituencies on campus," Docking said.
he said the opinions that he heard from University students were beneficial to his work.
"It was helpful to hear their explanation of why they would like to see a fall break." Docking said.
Holly Krebs, McLouth junior, attended the luncheon and said that she was excited about the opportunity for students to tell the Regents their views on the issues.
"We talked about the proposed fall break for quite a while." she said.
Krebs said that the discussion then focused on Kansas' Task Force on Higher Education Structure for Excellence, which will recommend possible changes in the governance of higher education to the Legislature in January.
"It seems like they are trying to coordinate state universities and community colleges together without abolishing the Board of Regents," she said.
Krebs said the conversation also covered Regents' efforts to increase faculty salary by 7.6 percent for three consecutive years.
"Currently, faculty pay does not live up to the standard, and some people are leaving for higher-paying jobs," she said. "They want the quality of Kansas educators to remain as good as possible."
According to the Regents, the increase is necessary to bring the salaries to a comparable level with other universities.
Mark Bradshaw, Walnut junior, said that he was impressed by the Regent's visit.
"I see a lot of value with Regents getting some student input," he said. "This was one of the only times that students get to ask a lot of questions of the people who are representing us at the state level."
Bradshaw said that students did not understand the role that the Regents and Legislature play in the daily lives of students.
"The fact that faculty salaries are too low has a direct effect on the quality of education at the University," Bradshaw said.
Diversity requirement sent back to committee
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
The College Assembly voted to send a proposed U.S. diversity requirement back to a committee for revisions yesterday.
rne Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising will discuss and revise the requirement proposal at its next meeting.
"I'm happy that it's not killed," said Rochelle Votaw, Lawrence graduate student.
Votaw, committee member, proposed the concept of a U.S. diversity requirement when she was an undergraduate student and has continued to push for the require ment for two years.
The intent behind the proposal is to require students to take a course that would expose them to varying elements of diversity in the United States. Elements discussed include race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, class, ability and age.
The College Assembly is the governing
body of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and is composed of more than 100 members.
Cody Johnson, member of the assembly, said he was opposed to the underlying principle of the requirement.
"I believe the diverse education we are receiving in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is sufficient in exposing students to the points proposed," Johnson said. "It would be redundant to implement this requirement."
Under the tentative proposal, all students in the college seeking bachelor of science and bachelor of general studies degrees would have to take the course. Students could satisfy the requirement with courses that also satisfy other requirements.
Students in the college seeking degrees already are required to take two Western Civilization courses and one Non-Western Culture course, which the Assembly compared to the proposed diversity requirement.
Fund request would use up 12 percent of annual budget

of the school year," he said. "And it includes the entire KU community to help us celebrate."
Elyse Towey, treasurer of First Nations Student Association, said people didn't understand how entrenched a powwow was.
"They take a lot of money," she said. "Last year, Senate gave us a big chunk of money, and that enabled us to do a lot more than previously."
Towey said that after Senate decided to fund First Nations Student Association last year, some of the senators attended the powwow.
"I think they were surprised with two things," she said. "A: the amount of money that goes to pay for a powwow; and B: the time we invest in putting it on."

"I want them to put on the best powwow they can do," he said. "I understand the dancers are performing for a fraction of what they usually do as a service to KU. We
Maxwell thought the large amount of money was not important.
Korb Maxwell, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, is one of the senators submitting the bill to Senate.
"they're using the money for a worthy cause; they've been around for a while; it's an excellent function on campus; and it's not duplicated by any other group. So, we should give them what they want," he said

City of Lawrence and University need to cooperate on bus system
The University of Kansas and the city of Lawrence should work together to promptly solve the city's lack of a mass transit system.
Since 1985, city commissioners have known that Lawrence is eligible for federal grants from the Urban Mass Transportation Administration to create a citywide busing program. The same year, a plan to purchase four new buses for KU on Wheels fell apart in a dispute between the city and the Lawrence Bus Company, which provides the buses for KU on Wheels.
The Urban Mass Transportation Administration grant had been approved, but the disagreement about specifics of the bus routes brought this potential improvement to a screeching halt.
In January 1997, commissioners once again failed to solve this pressing problem. They voted not to hold even a public referendum for a fixed-route transportation system. Rather, they decided to divert more funds to Douglas County Area Transit services, which operates on a demand and response basis, much like a taxi.
Both the University and the city
Citywide transportation has potential to benefit all citizens.
are responsible for solving this dilemma. Unfortunately, several roadblocks are hindering progress. Nicole Skalla, KU on Wheels coordinator, said the main problem was complying with various laws.
State law mandates that student fees can be spent only on students. Financing a municipal project could violate this. Additionally, the buses used by KU on Wheels would have to comply with emission standards and the Americans with Disabilities Act to receive federal funds.
If the system does comply, it would be eligible for 80 percent matching funds to acquire new buses and 50 percent matching funds for operations.
Cities similar in size to Lawrence have shown that citywide transit systems incorporating University routes are certainly possible. Such systems are in place at Iowa State University in Ames and at the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign.
Obviously, Lawrence cannot continue to grow without a sufficient municipal transportation system. Reliance upon demand-and-response systems is not the answer because they are less efficient both in cost and ability to transport large numbers of people. A citywide system could greatly decrease traffic on the most congested streets in Lawrence.
Furthermore, Lawrence residents without cars would have significantly easier access to the businesses on Massachusetts Street, Iowa Street and 23rd Street. Even KU students with bus passes are unable to have easy access. Buses run, for the most part, on campus or between campus and apartment complexes.
Student Senate recently took an important step by passing a resolution to support the pursuit of a mass transit system in Lawrence. Hopefully, this will give the momentum to institute a system that will provide some much needed relief to the thousands of Lawrence residents and KU students.

There is incredible beauty in this museum beyond her imagination. Carrie apparently has never seen any of the wonderful exhibits carefully

Quisenberry's example was taught on, off field
Perspective
I turned the ignition in my car, and by default, Don Fortune's Sports Line came on the radio. A recorded voice was being played. It sounded familiar but not enough for me to recognize it right.
As the conversation drew on, the content of the speech made it clear to me that it was Dan Quisenberry talking, and I knew then that Dan had lost his battle to brain cancer.

Christopher Sieggen
Guest columnist
For those of you who are not Royals fans or even baseball fans, you might not know who this man was. It doesn't matter. Dan's celebrity was not what made him great but
his life with his family, community and charity.
Sure, the statistics will show that his accomplishments on the field make him one of the greatest relief pitchers ever to have played the game, but the effect he had on the players with whom he played, business associates, family members and his fans is his greatest achievement.
I never met him personally, but the stories I've heard through the years about his warmth, sense of humor and his mighty spirit touched me deeper than a "celebrity" is supposed to. Therefore, the news of his death made me ween openly.
My own memories of his career came flashing back — memories of the 1980 American League Championship that "Quiz" wrapped up with a sinkball pitch to Willie Randolph of the Yankees, which struck him out and ended the series; memories of "Quiz" pitching the final out in Game 7 of the 1985 World Series; and memories of my childhood trying to mimic Dan's trademark underhand delivery.
me to recognize it right away.
But the memories of his humble and giving nature as he turned on the grounds keepers' hoses to cool off the right field bleacher fans on those hot summer afternoon games best puts Quisenberry's life into perspective. He always thought of everyone else rather than himself.
Dan always seemed to be uncomfortable with the accolades thrust upon him once he became the Royals' ace reliever. In the mid-70s, the Royals were unstoppable with the exception of postseason play, where Kansas City fans repeatedly were forced to watch a team lose with one pitch in the bottom of the ninth.
It wasn't until Dan showed up, armed with an unorthodox underhand delivery learned from its first practitioner, Kent Tekulve, that the
Royals finally had the last element they needed to win it all.
Dan single handedly made the Royals a team that could take a lead into the ninth and win. Every significant win from 1979 to 1985 was finished in style by Dan. The numbers say it all: 217 saves from 1979 to 1985, the most in the majors.
Dan also was unique because he would sometimes pitch not just the eighth or ninth inning but the sixth or seventh. Try finding a relief pitcher who does that today.
Dan would say that many cancer victims sometimes ask themselves, "Why me?" His response was, "Why not me?" Dan would rather spare someone else and take on the disease himself.
But mention these facts to "Quiz," and first he would tell a joke and then explain that he owed all his success to "a delivery I found in my flaw." Success in his career and his family were icing on the cake to him. "I'm so blessed; I've got this great family, and I played in a special time in this city for the Kansas City Royals," he said. "Quiz" never forgot it was a game that he was playing. Money and fame were not the motivating factors in his career.
"Quiz" later would write down his feelings about his time in baseball through his published collections of poetry, always emphasizing the word "play."
A cancerous tumor was diagnosed in his brain on Jan. 9, 1998. Although he underwent chemotherapy, the outlook was not good. Did "Quiz" let this get him down? In true relief pitcher style, he fought the disease with a serenity that inspired everyone around him.
If he was to be beat, it would happen because it was God's will, much like if his sinkerball just wasn't working that night. As with his pitching, "Quiz" knew when to put himself in the hands of those around him and let fate take charge. "I think about all the help I needed," he said. "I needed a good wife. I needed a good center fieldler (Willie Wilson) and a great second baseman (Frank White). I needed all these things. I don't think about the things I accomplished because I needed so much help on the field. Where I am now with cancer, I need help too. If I survive, it won't be what I accomplished again. It will be more folks on the field and off the field. We need each other.
That's the lesson."
All people could do themselves some good to read those words repeatedly. In today's world of "me, me, me," a humbleness and compassion for those around us can be hard to find. Sometimes we need just a little push to be more caring and aware of the blessings bestowed upon us.
It may sound like a cliche, in Dan's case, it makes sense. If Dan's example can make things a little bit brighter, sunnier and a whole lot funnier for just one person, I think Dan would think that his whole life had been worth it. That's just the kind of guy he was.

degrees. Suddenly aware of the chill coming through my open car window, I reached to close it. Impulse made me turn on the car's heater, and I was hit by a recollection.
Hmmm?
I'm not alone with this question. I think we've all lost somebody as these college years slip by.
somebody as these college your job is High school acquaintances were the first to go
High school acquaintances are — all those faces with names that were forgotten seconds after their mention. These are the disposable people in your life; standard-issue citizens who you meet at parties — friends of friends with no outstanding character traits aside from being able to remember your name the next time they meet you.
For me, family was the next to go — you know, all of those aunts and uncles and cousins that only showed up at Thanksgiving and Christmas. I still see my mom and dad, my little sister and my cat. The rest have all just fallen away. Grandma gets a letter every once in a while, but that's about it.
All of this, I can handle, though.
Losing my friends — that's the thing I never dreamed would happen. How can bonds that seemed so tight such a short while ago be broken already?
Letters become pointless when you actually contemplate writing the same letter and sending it to five different people. And still I ask, why do these things happen?
I guess this is how it happens as we grow older. We attend different universities, we study different subjects, and we meet different $ ^{*} $
people. Like it or not, we change. Phone calls become awkward and soon enough, there is no common ground.
Can you remember the first time you made a priority judgment about your friends? With homework piling up, work hours steadily increasing, and deadlines constantly looming, choices had to be made.
It's the permanent cuts about which I'm talking. Not only the subconscious decision we make to end correspondence, but also the same decision our friends make about us. Here is where the pain begins. Now, that deep sense of loss begins to sink in.
Yes, this is how it all begins. Somewhere hidden deep in our psyche lies a wicked little list. For every new person of significance in our lives, someone old must go. Any amount of time spent thinking about the many possible futures leaves less and less to spend reminiscing about the past.
"Who's been writing me back?" you might have asked. "And how much do we really talk, anwway?"
I'm not talking about short periods of neglect. Some new girl comes into your life and for a little while nothing else in the world matters. No, that's forgivable. Friends will understand that.
The memories will come for different reasons: a song on the radio, an old trailer on a rental video, or maybe just the right temperature in the wind.
The list will never be concrete. I can't even begin to count the number of evenings my friend and I spent driving aimlessly around with the windows down and the heater on. He was my best friend in high school. But what of it?
Almost four years have passed since high school. During the last year, we talked maybe three times and never sent each other a letter. The priorities of life have gotten in the way. Somehow, the decision was made. Once again, the list has changed.

Online classes aid Med Center numbers
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Offering classes online has boosted enrollment this fall for two schools at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
The number of students in the graduate physical therapy program in the School of Allied Health increased from 81 students last fall to 90 this fall.
"The increase is reflective of an online distance education program that began two years ago in Pittsburgh," said Moffett Ferguson, student affairs coordinator for the School of Allied Health.
The graduate program for occupational therapy added nine students, going from six students last fall to 15 students this fall.
"The physical therapy and occupational therapy programs always carry the ball for enrollment because they are so popular." Ferguson said.
A total of 465 students are enrolled
in undergraduate and graduate programs in the School of Allied Health this fall, a 3.1 percent increase from 1997.
The School of Nursing had the largest decline in graduate enrollment, with a decrease of 10 percent, from 197 graduate students in Fall 1997 to 176 graduate students this fall.
"We look at it in relation to what is going on in health care with hospitals restructuring," said Rita Clifford, associate dean for student affairs in the School of Nursing. "Nurses with bachelor's degrees don't want to jeopardize their jobs, so they put off going to graduate school. This dip in enrollment is happening across the country."
Enrollment in the undergraduate programs for the School of Nursing has increased by 19 students, from 245 students last fall to 264 students this fall. Clifford attributes the increase to the online completion program for a Bachelor of Science
The School of Medicine's enrollment numbers remained steady because each year it accepts 175 students. The only notable decrease from last fall to this fall was a loss of 13, third-year medical students.
degree in nursing.
Dwayne Ollerich, associate dean for student affairs for the School of Medicine, said the dip was because of special circumstances.
"Some graduate students left to do research, some went overseas for mission work, some took a leave of absence for personal reasons and others didn't pass national board exams prior to their third year," he said.
Overall, the School of Medicine had an increase of eight students from 1,523 students in Fall 1997 to 1,531 students this fall.
Total enrollment for Med Center programs was 2,470 students for Fall 1998. The number represents an increase of 11 students, compared to 2,459 students enrolled in Fall 1997.

Local Boston Market affected by closings
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
Mark Brown, Shawnee sophomore, started looking for a new job yesterday after Lawrence's Boston Market, 600 W. 23rd St., closed its doors for good Monday.
The store, which opened on July 8 of last year, was one of 178 Boston Market franchises closed nationwide. There are a total of 1,143 stores owned by the Denver-based Boston Chicken Inc., which also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Monday.
Gary Gerdemann, representative for Boston Chicken Inc. said the stores were shut down because they were not reaching the necessary profits.
He also said that the company had a $283 million debt due October 17.
Some employees at the Lawrence store said they thought if the store had been allowed to stay open longer, business might have picked up.
They were informed by management Monday that the store was closing.
Brown said he decided to hunt for a new job after the announcement was made.
Brown said he was shocked and upset because of the short notice.
Gerdemann said it should be easy to find a job in retail because there was a healthy economy.
Gerdemann said all but 500 employees out of the total 18,500 nationwide affected by the shutdowns were being offered jobs at other Boston Market stores.
Brown said the transfer offers wouldn't help many of the Lawrence workers because a lot of the employees didn't have a car for transportation.
Students had mixed reactions to the closing of the store.
Crystal Fife, Chicago freshmen, said that she liked the restaurant.
"It was a mix between fast food and good food," Fife said. "I like how you can pick your side dishes."
Hollie Bush, Overland Park freshman, said she wasn't upset that Boston Market closed.
"The food was OK, but it was kind of expensive." she said.
Brown agreed that the food was expensive and thought that the high-priced food might have kept students from dining at the store.

Not all Kansans are farmers
Diversity series attempts to dispel regional blunders

the stereotype is that Californianans are blond, tan, eat healthy foods and that we're really laid back," Huerta said. "The other half are very rude and always moving —
Ann Welk, dean of social welfare,
said the purpose of the series was
for students to talk about stereotypes outside of a classroom setting.
Huerta spoke about how other people perceived him living on the west coast, in a suburban area of Los Angeles.
In the Kansas Union, a group of about 20 students listened to speakers from various regions of the United States relate their experiences of being stereotyped. The students then broke into small groups to discuss their own experiences.
The KU Coalition opened its Diversity Dialogue Series last night with the topic, "Exploring Regional Stereotypes."
Leonard Huerta, Montclair, Calif., graduate student, said that his first impression of Kansans was that everyone lived on a farm and had a horse or a pet pig.
"Part of the exploration is to see how we put people in boxes," Weick said. "We need to try to move those walls out further."

we're the creators of road rage."
"We all do it because we are a tiered society," she said. "I admit, I have a big stereotype of Johnson County people as rich snobs."
Tammi Lewis, assistant director of minority affairs, talked about living in a small Virginia town.
Huerta said another misconception people had was only wealthy people lived in Los Angeles.
"The four major stereotypes about Virginians is that we're Revolutionary War nuts, we're ultra-conservative, we're country and we're southern belles," she said.
Summer Schippers, Hoxie junior,
said she was stereotyped by living
in a small western Kansas town.
"Hoxie is a farm-based community, 100 percent," Schippers said. "People asked me how I survived going to high school."
Schippers said the worst stereotype was that western Kansans were dumb farmers.
“It’s sad that people perceive you as less intelligent because you're from a less urban area,” she said.
The seminar was the first of six in the series. Other seminars this year will focus on stereotypes in living groups, religion, women, indigenous people and gay, lesbian and transgender groups.

Storm plays a role in set damage
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Part of the set for an upcoming play at Murphy Hall was damaged last weekend when a power outage caused a lift beneath the set to malfunction.
The set, a Holiday Inn hotel room, was supported by beams that ran down into the orchestra pit and rested on the electric lift at
the bottom of the pit.
The malfunction occurred late Saturday night in Crafton-Preyer Theatre, where crew members were doing work on the set of "The Batting Cage."
When the power went out, the lift was reset causing it to rise to the stage level.
It ripped half of the hotel room from the stage.
Mike Senften, theater scene shop employee, discovered the damage Sunday afternoon when he came to the set to check for water damage from the previous night's storm.
He said the lift contains a microprocessor that automatically resets the lift to stage level if the power goes off.
Senften said that was a safety measure added to the lift six
months ago when it was repaired.
"We told them that we didn't want it that way because we were afraid of something like this, and they said they would disable it," he said. "They didn't."
Despite the set being ripped in two, the damage was minor, and it was repaired by Monday.
Linda Hope, box office manager, said the Oct. 18 opening of "The Batting Cage" will not be delayed by the damage.
"Things are back in order," she said. "But we were never really worried that it would affect the show."

Theater and dance hit downtown Lawrence

Drivers and pedestrians passing by Massachusetts Street today will have an opportunity to sample theatrical pieces performed by high-school students and a Seattle performer.
The project, entitled Dueling Crosswalks, was created by Bruce Wylie, member of Seattle-based American Chamber Theater, as one of the activities its members will perform this week.
During their week-long residency in Lawrence, Bryan Wylie, Richard Davidson and Bryan Neel will perform several workshops and sketches in different locations as part of their engagement with the Lied Center.
Wylie's project with the Lawrence High School students will be at 3:30 p.m. today between Seventh and 11th streets.
Yesterday, KU students had a chance to sample the work of the troupe, which highlights dance, mime and physical expression.
"We are bringing art to the store to bring the stores to the arts."
Richard Davidson
Performer
The ensemble helped about 60 students enrolled in dance improvisation and intermediate modern dance to improve their techniques.
Davidson said that sometimes dancers knew how to move correctly and beautifully, but they do not know how to incorporate a character, usually having a blank expression in their face.
"They need to create some dance movements that give them the opportunity to experience and expand their physical vocabulary," Davidson said.
And that is exactly Janet Hamburg's goal for the classes she teaches.
"The purpose of dance improvisation class is to explore and invent movements while developing skills in perception of their rapid transition of ideas into dance," she said.
Hamburg, professor of music and dance, said that it was always very stimulating for students to have guest teachers who add variety to class.
The public will have another chance to preview the group's work for free during its presentation from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday at SuperTarget, 3201 S. Iowa St.
"We are bringing art to the store to bring the store to the arts," Davidson said.
The group will close its Lawrence stop with two shows in the Lied Center.
In its performance "Tell Tales" at 7 p.m. Saturday, the group will invite some audience members to participate in the show. Because of this level of interaction, the performance is recommended for ages 14 and above.
The second performance is at 2 p.m. Sunday, and it will be "AnimOtion," a show for all ages where the company

Specialist requests 50 more centers to handle overflow
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
The number of blue recycling centers at the University of Kansas just isn't enough.
Victoria Silva, environmental specialist, said the 48 recycling centers across campus had been filling up quickly with recyclable materials. The centers have been receiving so much usage that Silva has written a proposal to the University asking to purchase 50 more centers.
"The centers have been getting a lot of attention on campus," Silva said. "They are being used frequently and their heavy use is causing some of them to overflow with materials."
The centers that have received the most usage include those in Strong, Summerfield, Wescoe and Carruth-O'Leary halls, which require pickup about three times a week. The rest of the centers on campus receive pickup about every other week.
The University has spent about $23,000 for the recycling centers, and about $4,000 for the bins inside the centers that are used to hold the recyclable materials. The University also purchased about $200 worth of containers that are used to
transport the materials to Deffenbaugh Recycling in Shawnee.
The University recycling program receives $31 per ton from Defenbaugh for recyclable materials. This money is used to finance the gloves and coveralls for the workers and the gasoline for the truck that transports the materials. Finances are taken out of student fees to help pay the salaries for the nine recycling workers.
more recycling is made it a lot easier on us because before we had to go to individual offices to pick up the materials," said Kara King, Blue Rapids senior and a campus recycling employee. "The blue bins have also made it more obvious that recycling is something that a lot of people participate in on campus."
One problem Silva has noticed when collecting recyclable materials involves paper sorting. Silva said many students and faculty on campus sorted their white paper improperly, causing the recycling workers to spend their time resorting the materials. Silva said the bin for white paper requires that only materials printed on white paper be deposited into the bin. Colored paper must be deposited into the office pak bin.
Depositing recyclable materials into the wrong bin may cause the recycling program to reduce its financing in the future. Diefenbaugh pays the University by the grade of materials that are collected. This means that the company will cut down on the money it pays the University if papers are deposited into the wrong bins and contaminate the rest of the collection. Silva said.
WHAT TO RECYCLE The recycling centers have four separate bins for recyclable materials;
Office Pak: Includes colored, looseleaf, scratch, message pads and typing paper, envelopes, manila folders, letters, brochures, ads, pamphlets and brochures
- White ledger: Collects white copy and typing paper, notebook paper and computer paper
Newspapers only
1 plastic P.E.T. bottles only
"The program wasn't very clean and organized before the new bins," said Kari Schopf, Wichita junior and a campus recycling employee. "But one of the problems that we have to deal with is sorting the bins of papers that get mixed up."
Silva said the University has collected about 125 tons of material since January 1 and has made about $3,700.
"I think that the new bins have really helped out a lot," said Scott Dusenberry, St. Louis senior. "The more places they have them, the better."

Local skaters anticipate new street course, fewer hassles

Lawrence skateboarders will have a new skating center in Centennial Park to call home by late November — if bad weather doesn't delay construction.
Fred DeVictor, director of Parks and Recreation, said the project's $120,000 budget stemmed from a 1994 Douglas County sales tax.
The new center at Centenial Park, 600 Rockledge Road, will be a street course, DeVictor said. Its eight concrete features will be modeled after obstacles that skaters would encounter on a Lawrence street.
Mike Wexler, Buffalo Grove, Ill., junior, said skaters view everyday objects through the eyes of a skateboarder. While most people see only curbs, planters or rails, skateboarders
"It will probably be one of the skater parks in the Midwest," said skater Robert Brown, Winfield freshman.
The city is building the course after more than three years of planning, said skater Ben Tuttle, who graduated from the University of Kansas this summer.
Turtle was a member of the Lawrence Skate Park Committee and pushed the city commission to build a skate park.
"It's actually happening, and that's something that's just super, super good to see," Tuttle said.
Some skaters take to the streets to skate, and Lawrence Municipal Court records show that 13 tickets were given in 1997 for skating violations.
"I've watched 30 kids try to skate that park at once," Tuttle said. "It's just a safety hazard."
The skaters made everything themselves at Burcham: the ramps, the boxes and other wooden structures.
ing skateboard on videos, his skate.
Glynn said skateboarding had its own
subculture. Its allure was what had first
drawn him into skating.
Tuttle said the push for a park originally came from rezoning that expanded the areas in Lawrence that prohibit skating. The city allowed skaters to use a concrete slab in Burcham Park, Indiana and Second streets, several years ago to gauge the demand for a skateboarding park.
But little time passed before the wooden ramps were splintering and rusty nails and metal strips began to protrude from the structures. A city-installed wire-and-wood fence, intended to guard against the drop into the Kansas River, is broken and could impale skaters who bail at the wrong time.
Quillan Glyn, Lawrence resident, said he dropped out of culinary school because it interfered with his skating. He couldn't handle spending sunny days in a classroom. He said his life revolved around skateboarding.
Tuttle said many kids were unaware of the ordinance that prohibits skateboarding downtown, on the KU campus and on city streets. Tuttle said he thought it was unfair that skaters were constantly yelled at, flashed dirty looks or given tickets.
With such perceived aggression, Turtle said skaters developed a confrontational nature. Armed with this front, they cop an attitude with people, and those people are insulted, creating a cycle.
"For us, it's a safety issue. It's not really an attitude issue," said Sgt. George Wheeler, of the Lawrence police department.
Tuttle agreed it was perfectly rational for people to fear someone who was flying down the street on a board that had no visible means of stopping. But he said people should realize that there is more to skateboarding than meets the eye.
Wheeler said officers were concerned about pedestrians' safety when people skated or bicycled in crowded areas
Lawrence's population of skateboarders spend every possible minute skating, he said. The crew comes from a medley of backgrounds, and each has a different set of goals in life. Some are in bands. Many are still in high school, and a few attend the University. Regardless of their place in life, skating is a part of their identity.
"If we aren't skateboarding, we're with our friends who skateboard and watching skateboarding videos," he said.
see a new obstacle to ollie (or jump) onto.
Tuttle said he remembered when the skateboarding culture was ridiculed for wearing baggy clothes. Now, the style is so mainstream that J.C. Penny carries it, and skating is changing its style again, he said.
"It's like the subculture was recognizing what was happening, and now it's embracing what was once not cool to skaters," Tuttle said.
Tuttle, Brown and Wexler did their own thing as far as most skaters were concerned because they were KU students. Tuttle works at Let I Ride skate shop, Ninth and New Hampshire streets, and skated while he went to the University. Wexler said going to college didn't stop skating.

The image shows a large industrial building with multiple levels of openings and staircases. The floor is made of concrete, and there are several large windows on the upper floors. The lower level has rows of openings, possibly for ventilation or access to different areas within the facility. The overall structure appears to be robust and well-maintained, suggesting it might be part of an industrial complex or a manufacturing plant.
"In general, without school. I think it'd be hard to skate, and vice versa," he said.

ming backs by committee for the Kansas Javhawks.
It is running backs by committee for the Kansas football team. After playing one primary running back for the past few seasons, first June Henley then Eric Vann, the Kansas football team has changed the game plan a bit.
Sophomore David Winbush and junior Mitch Bowles are starting running backs for the 'Hawks this season. Both of them.

After playing in the shadow of last year's star running back Vann, both Bowles and Winbush are in their own spotlight — together. If you ask Winbush, the reason they share time is a matter of health. Playing in a competitive conference like the Big 12, running backs are rounded on constantly.
"We're tough guys, don't get me wrong," Winbush said. "But keeping the fresh legs and coming in and making the big plays, if you keep a guy like me in there play after play, you're going to see a let up somewhere."
The new running-back tandem has proved effective so far.
This season the two together have a combined 571 yards and six touchdowns on 122 carries. Although
they share time at the running back position, they never share
time together on the field although they'd like to.
Running back coach Michael Garrison said that having them on the field at the same time isn't neces-sary
"We try to find a matchup that's favorable to us, and a lot of times there's only one guy," Garrison said.
"So, there's no need to put both of them in at the same time." Winbush and Bowles would beg to differ. In their opinion, if they were both allowed out on the field at the same time, they would be virtually unstoppable.
"They can't key on anybody."
"If they try to
"If they try to key on me, he'll get loose. And if they try to key on him, then I'll get loose. If we're both in at the same time, they have to play more honest. If not, we'll kill them."
Since the two share time, they are unable to accomplish some feats that other running backs, who have the starting position outright, can achieve.
In last week's Big 12 standings, Winbush ranked twelfth with 70 carries for 245 yards. The leader in this category, Ricky Williams of Texas Tech, had twice as many carries for 770 yards.
In the beginning, Winbush would have liked the position all to himself, but the tag-team role he shares with Bowles is beginning to grow on him.
"I've grown to like it better," he said.
"At first I didn't like it, but I thought I'd be a team player. It really didn't bother me that much as long as we got the carries."
DAVID WINBUSH
But, according to Garrison, it would be nearly impossible to choose one instead of the other because they are both that good and that equal.

"David has the ability to make people miss, but his size is a limitation," he said. "Mitch is just a little bigger, but he can make people miss, and he can make big plays. I like to think of it as if they were both bigger and had the same talent, then I'd have one. Essentially by splitting the time between them, I get one really, really good running back."

Commentary
'Hawks' potential recognized; team not reaching it
potential is a great thing for those who have reached it.
There are also notable failures; Those who have always had potential but are known for never reaching it.
Thomas Edison reached his. Mother Teresa exceeded hers. Whoever invented indoor plumbing excelled above and beyond whatever potential they had.
I was told in fourth grade that I could be one heck of a mathematician. But so far, I have
avoided college math now but
will know what balanced means.
We all keep waiting for that one great Demi Moore performance. Dan Quayle still has hallucinations that he can be President of the United States.
Then there is the Kansas football team.
This team has potential. Just ask coach Terry Allen, who the past few months has praised his team for its potential.
PETER ROSS
Spencer Duncan
mattf@ukans.edu
On the team as a whole
"This team has the potential to be very good." On quarterback Zac Wegner: "He has great potential to be an excellent thrower."
on the defense: "This could potentially be one of the better defenses in the (Big 12) conference."
On the offense: "Potentially, this team can score very fast."
OK. we get it
But at some point potential actually has to blossom. Potential is defined as "capable of being but not yet in existence."
So we wait for potential to turn into results. That was why Saturday was discouraging.
Kansas was on the verge of reaching its potential. But the defense crumbled and allowed Texas A&M to drive down the field in the waning minutes and score the game-winning touchdown. Texas A&M 24, Kansas 21
A win could have been the Jayhawks' turning point.
It was a game of not-met potential and a perfect example of why fans are discouraged with this team.
Since Terry Allen arrived in town, the Jayhawks have had potential, and last year they excelled. A makeshift team of two quarterbacks, a weak offensive line, a running back who was hot and cold and an inexperienced defense went 5-6 and was one win away from a bowl game.
This season, the team has no quarterback controversy, an improved offensive line, a faster and stronger running game and a tougher defensive line.
This is potentially a better team. But the results have been disappointing, and with Nebraska, Colorado and Kansas State on the horizon, things only look to become more difficult.
It is nice to know this team has potential. But the difference between great teams and mediocre ones is that the great ones have realized their potential and moved beyond it.
The Jayhawks can talk about their potential all they want, but until they reach it, it is easy to be skeptical.

Football recruit optimistic about season
Editor's note: This is the second in a series of articles about the recruitment of Jason Rowe, Shawnee Mission Northwest High School senior football player
By Randy Withers
Kansan sportswriter
The Shawnee Mission Northwest Cougars, led by senior captain and Division I football recruit Jason Rowe, faced No. 3 Olathe East Oct. 2.
Northwest defeated the Hawks 20-14 for its fourth consecutive homecoming victory, and only its fourth win in 15 years.
wise. They were ranked No.3 in the state, and we went out there and took care of them."
Rowe has played well this season on the offensive and defensive lines. His play has made him one of the top players in his conference and earned him the attention of three college football
The Cougars, now 2-3, lost three games since winning the season opener.
"I played that game like we had nothing to loose," Rowe said. "That game really helped me confidence-
Butler County and Coffeyville Community Colleges are among the programs that have written him frequently.
program recruiters
Rowe's parents, Michael and Terri , also have received mail from colleges trying to establish a recruiting edge.
"I haven't been that much involved," Michael Rowe said. "Most of it has all been through the mail. We have gotten maybe one or two letters from some colleges, mainly introduction letters."
He said Kansas also is one of the schools recruiting him actively. The Jayhawks had sent him several letters expressing their interest in him as a prospect, Rowe said.
When asked about what he felt would be the best situation for his son, Michael Rowe said he was looking at smaller colleges.
He said in his opinion, an in-state school would be ideal, preferably Division II. "Simply because of the classes being smaller, I think he'd be better in a small environment. As long as he's happy, that's all I'm concerned with. It's not really my life; it's his life. It's time for him to take it over."
Terri Rowe said that she wanted her son to stay close to home.
Terri Rowe said she hoped the remainder of the season went well.
"I hope he gets a lot of letters and a lot of recruiters coming to talk to him," she said. "Overall, I would think that he's had a good four years of high school and football." She said she hoped he would continue his education after high school.
"That's my motherly instinct," she said. "I would like that. Wherever he wants to be. I will go with it."
Like his mother, Rowe said he hoped the rest of the season brought big things for the team and himself.
"The game was a big turning point for us," Rowe said. "All week long we talked about doing what the coaches said — practice hard and be disciplined. We were disciplined, and we went out there and had a lot of fun, and I think we showed it. We went out there and hit them in the mouth."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 7).
If you are worried about money, do not be. You need to set up an agenda, and it is a good time to start. You do not have to be perfect. December is about putting in corrections. Go to visit friends in late December and January, and spur them to take action.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Mars, the planet of aggression, goes into Virgo, which is in your solar's sixth house of service. You will be taking care of others for the next few weeks, making their lives work, whether they like it or not. If you approach this in a positive way, you will accomplish great things
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Mars, symbolizing assertion, is going into Virgo today.
Consequently, you will be confident in your love life for the next several weeks. Instead of waiting to get what you want, ask for it. You may also have to work for it, but if you and your sweetheart are working together, that will be fun.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
The themes are perfection and finishing old business. This is not a burden. It is how dreams come true. You have got a dream, and it has to do with stability, security and love. It could happen. If you have already got that in your life, you can keep it. That is your lesson. Pay attention.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer June 22- July 22) Today's a 6.
Virgo is in your solar's third house of education today,
so you will take on learning with vigor. Pity the poor per
son who gets in your way! You want the facts. Guess
what? The more you get, the more you will earn. Education
and financial rewards are also closely linked.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
See Day 23-May 22. Today is a S.
Today you will be more assertive regarding money,
since Virga is in your second house of finances. That
sometimes means you want to spend more money,
but not necessarily. You will get wiser about how to
spend your money and make it stretch further.
Virga (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 7.
Mars goes into your sign today, and it brings vigor wherever it goes. It is the sign of the athlete and warrior. Your preferences will become definite. Make sure others know how important these things are. You may draw more attention than you are used to, but you will get used to it.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 10.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
You and your friends can make wonderful things happen, but you will have to get realistic. How are you going to pay for it all? There is a way, and you can figure out what it is. Do not expect others to make this decision for you. If you have to pay it back, you should make the choice.
An idea you have been working on is about to take off. You know what needs to be done, but you have not had the resources to pull the whole thing off. That is about to change. It looks like people are excited to get started; all they need is a little direction. That is where you come in.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Today your life will be a little more difficult. If you have forgotten anything, Virgos point it out. They see that as their duty. With Mars in their sign, they will take on that job with renewed vigor. Make sure everything you do is perfect. If you do not, a Virgo will be delighted to remind you.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
P
Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18; Today is a 5.
Pinpoint accuracy is required, especially where money is concerned. That goes double if joint finances are involved, including money you are trying to borrow.
You will have to be precise about what you want it for, and, of course, how you are going to pay it back.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is α 5.
Mars is going into Virgo today, and that helps a lot. It will motivate you to try new things. There is a group of three earth signs right now, which helps even more. It means the new things you take on will prove beneficial. Do not hold back. Get involved.
It is easy to figure out the details today, especially if you have help from a sharp partner. You want to get everything straight in your mind before you go into negotiations. The other people may not have done the homework quite as well as you have. This slight advantage could make all the difference.

BALTIMORE — Cal Ripken Sr., the longtime Baltimore Orioles coach and former manager, and father of third baseman Cal Jr., is battling lung cancer, according to his family.
Ripken Sr., 62, was diagnosed last week at Johns Hopkins Hospital where he has begun receiving chemotherapy, his wife, Vi, told The Baltimore Sun.
"Doctors found a tumor on Calvin's lung, came up with a plan and started the wheels moving," Vi Ripken said. "The team of specialists seems very optimistic that this treatment will take care of the problem.

Ripken was the first in the majors ever to manage two of his sons, Cal Jr. and Bill, who was the Orioles' second baseman at the time. The three Ripkens appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1987.

His teams finished first or second on seven occasions, and he joined the Orioles' coaching staff in 1976. He was named manager in 1987.
That year, Ripken Sr. replaced Ripken Jr. late in a game, ending Cal Jr.'s streak of 8,243 consecutive innings played. Ripken Sr. was rehired as Orioles third base coach in 1989, but was dismissed at the end of the 1992 season.

Supreme Court rules against NCAA in coaches' salary case
By Sam Mellinger
Kansas sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
Monday's Supreme Court ruling could cost the University of Kansas Athletics Department more than $200,000.
The NCAA's appeal of a ruling that the NCAA acted unlawfully in capping salaries of entry-level coaches at $16,000 annually was denied by the nation's highest court.
Twelve current and former Kansas coaches were among the plaintiffs against the NCAA, including Joe Holladay, men's assistant basketball coach.
The decision left the NCAA with an estimated $80 million obligation, a figure that is being negotiated, which includes $67 million
in damages, plus $10 million to
$13 million in legal fees.
The Associated Press reported that the NCAA has offered $44 million; the coaches' lawyers countered with $58.5 million. Coaches lawyer Dennis Cross reportedly said his offer will now reach above $60 million.
"The NCAA hasn't been very willing to settle in the past, but now the plaintiffs have most of the cards on their side," said Bob Frederick, University athletics director. "I hope that at this point both sides can meet somewhere in the middle and settle this."
Roy Williams, KU basketball coach, was among several coaches who testified against the NCAA.
would come to their senses and settle something that could have
"I wish the NCAA powers that be
been settled a long, long time ago for far, far, far less money then it's going to be settled for now," Williams said. "It's been an arrogant attitude that I think has really been a problem and cost the NCAA which

Williams: Testified against the NCAA in the coaches case.
means it will cost each and every member school a lot of money."
The final figure will be divided
The final figure will be divider
among NCAA schools, with each institution paying part. Small schools want larger schools to pay more of the penalty, while many big schools say the payment should be made evenly since the restricted-earnings rule was agreed upon by almost all Division I schools.
Frederick estimated that if the NCAA was required to pay $80 million, the University's share would fall between $200,000 and $250,000.
The method of payment has not been determined, and negotiations could take a while.
"It's going to cost us one way or the other," Frederick said.
With the NCAA no longer able to argue that it did not break the law, its financial obligation is the last thing to settle.
Club soccer to face K-State, Wichita
Players' intensity experience similar to varsity levels
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
The women's club soccer team will travel to Manhattan on Friday to play rival Kansas State and to Wichita on Saturday to play Wichita State.
"We are always really competitive against K-State, the wins go back and forth every year," said Beth Wiens. Denver senior.
Earlier in September, K-State visited Lawrence and the Jayhawks
w10. 0
"We dominated them," said Carlisha Bell, Wichita senior. "They are our toughest competition in the region, so you never know how they are going to play."
Coach Dave Harris, Wichita graduate student, is in his rookie year coaching the team. The experienced players have helped him adjust to his first year of coaching.
"We have a lot of returners this year, and more people found out about the club by word of mouth," he said.
While the players may only play for a club team, the intensity level and the desire to win remains high. Bell said. The level of play ranges
from beginners to experienced players.
"Many players play at the varsity level on the team," said Bell. "It's very competitive."
Bell, Lauren Hayward, Kansas City, Kan., junior, and Kathy Strope, Olathe sophomore, provide leadership and the team's top talent. All three women are capable of playing soccer at the varsity level, Harris said.
"Many of these players could play varsity soccer at other schools," he said. "At least 10 of the girls could get scholarships elsewhere."
Wiens said the club team was more competitive than the intramural teams.
State this weekend, the team will travel to the Clemson Invitational on Oct. 23. The winner of the tournament automatically qualifies for the National Tournament on Nov. 19 in Georgia.
At Nationalists, teams may compete in the open and competitive division. In the open competition, any team is allowed to play despite their record. The competitive division is limited to the top two teams in each region.
After facing K-State and Wichita
"We finished in the bottom of the competitive division last year," Bell said.
Currently, Kansas is third in the region. Other teams in the region include K-State, Wichita State and schools from Texas, Missouri, Oklahoma and Louisiana.

Every so often, a columnist is allowed to just post a series of lists when their inspiration has run dry.
Well, my inspiration hasn't run day, but I have
a much juicier column that I'm working on for next week, and I came up with some fun soccer lists in the meantime. Besides, lists always seem to provoke discussion. So, doing my duty

as an American, as a male and as a sports fan (the three most list-loving sets of people in the world), here we go:

All of these are great, but not quite as much fun as playing the, "If America were like other countries" game. This game consists of figuring out which athletes in other sports would make good soccer players. Here are my thoughts:

Midfielders: John Stockton, Nomar Garciaparra, Steve Young and Kordell Stewart.
Forwards: Barry Sanders and Jerry Rice.
mic exercise. But it's easy to imagine these guys playing soccer. Rodman's amazingly quick leaping ability, reflexes, catch-all hands and hours spent watching game tape for opponents' tendencies would serve him well as a goalkeeper.
This is, of course, a purely acade-
Watching Carter and Sanders play wing defender would be a treat, and so would watching Gary Payton sweep all attackers aside and provide good passes out of the back.
Young, "Slash" and Stockton creat ing in the midfield, with Garciaparra, the Red Sox shortstop, and his incredible range behind them making tackles, would make for a formidable unit.
Finally, Barry Sanders' runs with the ball (think Ronaldo or Owen) through the opposing defense would be the perfect complement to Jerry Rice's sense of positioning and the timing of his movements into open space.

Big toe brings Tigers big trouble

The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — A sprained left big toe too could keep one of Missouri's best weapons, quarterback Corby Jones, off the field this weekend.
Coach Larry Smith said yesterday
that he was preparing as if Jones, a senior touted as a Heisman Trophy candidate by the school, would not be able to play at Saturday's Big 12
M
game at Iowa State. Jones didn't practice Monday, and he wasn't working out yesterday, either.
Smith said he didn't know when,
or if, Jones would work out.
"It's just a day-to-day thing." Smith said. "Please don't ask me anything about projections because I'm not a doctor. I'm not a trainer. We're looking at it as if he plays, it's a bonus."
Jones, who holds the school record with 34 rushing touchdowns, was injured on Missouri's second series in Saturday's 35-14 victory against Northwestern State. He was hampered on the option attack the rest of the way, rushing for 31 yards on 16 carries.
He met reporters after the game with his left foot in a bucket of ice water and said he could barely walk.
"I couldn't make some of the plays that I normally would have," Jones said Saturday. "I really didn't think about needing to make a play."
If Jones can't go, sophomore Ryan Douglass or redshirt freshman Jim Dougherty would get the call. Douglass, son of former Chicago Bears quarterback Bobby Douglass, played sparingly last year and Dougherty was redshirted.
In limited duty this year, Douglass is 0-for-6 and Dougherty is 1-for-2 for 17 vards.
In any case, Smith said he won't alter his game plan. He said both backups looked sharp in practice on Monday.
Smith said he didn't want to bring back Jones too soon and risk aggravating the injury.
"He has to tell me he's completely comfortable and feels good about it," Smith said. "Because one game is not worth sacrificing may be three or four down the road."
He wasn't worried about any one individual attempting to pick up the slack.
"Everybody has to take a step up." Smith said. "Football is a team game, and the best way to win is as a team."
Volunteers' Lewis out for season
Team's leading rusher, Heisman candidate tears knee ligament
The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — The fourth-ranked Tennessee Volunteers will face No. 7 Georgia on Saturday and the rest of their regular season without starting tailback Jamal Lewis, who is out with a knee injury.
Lewis, a sophomore who is second in the Southeastern Conference in rushing, suffered a torn lateral collateral ligament in his right knee during Saturday's 17-9 victory against Auburn.
Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer said Monday a magnetic resonance imaging examination revealed the tear. Lewis was to be operated on yesterday.
"There's a chance he'll be back for a bowl game or a championship game, but that's not likely. It's really unfortunate for Jamal." Fulmer said.
"He has been a great player for us and will be a great player for us again, hopefully in the nottoo-distant future," he said, adding Lewis already has played too much this year to be red-shirted.
The Volunteers play at Georgia this Saturday. Lewis had the biggest day of his career last season against the Bulldogs, gaining 323 yards in 22 carries
in the Volunteers' 38-13 victory.
The 6-foot, 220-pounder from Atlanta has been the mainstay of Tennessee's offense this season, running for 497 yards on 73 carries through four games.
His 124.4 yard average is second in the SEC to LSU's Kevin Faulk and the biggest reason the Volunteers lead the league in rushing at 225.5 yards a game.
Lewis has been especially important because the Vols' passing game has struggled. Quarterback Tee Martin is seventh in the league in efficiency rating, having completed 35 of 79 passes for 509 yards, with eight touchdowns and two interceptions.
"It's important that somebody
else steps up and gets the job done. "Fulmer said."
The two reserve tailbacks expected to take over the position are sophomores Travis Stephens and Travis Henry. Henry has carried eight times for 75 yards and Stephens has rushed nine times for 62 yards this year.
Lewis had a 67-yard touchdown run on Tennessee's first play from scrummage against Auburn. He hurt his knee in the second half, left for treatment on the sidelines, and returned for one play. He gained 21 yards, but pulled up at the end of the run and hobbled off.
He did not return and finished the game with 140 yards on 18 carries.
Band's violation suspends athletics
Prairie View A&M ignores regulation receives suspension
The Associated Press
PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas - Prairie View &M has discovered something even worse than losing: not getting to play at all.
The school's football team recently snapped an NCAA-record 80-game losing streak, but now the entire athletic department has been suspended in a dispute with the Southwestern Athletic Conference about its marching band.
SWAC officials handed down the indefinite suspension Monday because the university allowed its band to perform at Saturday's Prairie View-Grambling game in Dallas.
That performance violated an earlier two-game suspension issued after the Prairie View band's halftime brawl with the band from Southern University.
The SWAC's latest sanctions bar any league school from playing Prairie View in any sport until further notice. Sports immediately affected are football, volleyball, track and bowling.
The volleyball team is scheduled to begin play Friday at a tournament hosted by Southern. Five of Prairie View's six remaining football games are against SWAC teams, including Saturday's homecoming game against rival Alcorn State.
Athletes and coaches were asked not to speak with reporters. But the suspension upset some of Prairie View's 6,000 students.
"Now that we we're finally able to win, we might not even be able to
play," said freshman Candace Johnson of Richardson, whose family planned to attend the Alcorn State game.
Prairie View has appealed the SWAC decision, according to Larry Raab, the school's vice president of operations.
"We feel the punishment is unjust, and we'll take all actions required to seek a just remedy." Raab said.
P
AVM
SWAC commissioner Rudy Washington said the league had no choice but to impose a harsh penalty.
"We were extremely disappointed to see Prairie View A&M blatantly disregard the laws and regulations of the Southwestern Athletic Conference,"
Washington said.
The marching bands of Southern and Prairie View duked it out during halftime Sept. 19 at Beaumont. Several Prairie View band members were injured and both schools incurred damage to uniforms and instruments.
The SWAC immediately suspended both schools' bands for two football games. Prairie View's band sat out the Sept. 26 game at Langton — the school's first football victory since 1989 — but played last Saturday at the Grambling game in Dallas.
Raba cited contractual obligations that could have cost the school $80,000 if the band hadn't shown up.
Another factor in the SWAC's harsh response: Prairie View President Charles Hines has refused to retract orders to his staff to forfeit any pending games against Southern and never again play the school. Raab reiterated that stance Monday.

Chiefs take muddy path to top
Rainy weather helps defense take No.1 spot
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Aided statistically by playing two games in driving rainstorms, the Kansas City Chiefs will go into New England on Sunday rated No. 1 in the NFL in both pass defense and total defense.
The Chiefs (4-1) are allowing an average of 110.4 yards rushing per game and just 129.6 through the air. That includes one of the most futile performances by a quarterback in modern NFL history, the 1-for-15 effort during a steady rain two weeks ago by San Diego rookie Ryan Leaf, who completed more passes to the Chiefs (2) than to his
own receivers, and had more turnovers (5) than passing yards (4).
Then Sunday night in a 17-6 victory against Seattle, a rain and lightning storm hit Arrowhead Stadium so hard that play was suspended for about an hour. Warren Moon, before he went out with bruised ribs, was 0-for-2. Then backups John Friesz and Jon Kita combined to go 11-for-31 for 94 yards and no touchdowns. In the season opener against Oakland, the Chiefs' defense sacked Jeff George 10 times.
"On the pass defense side, the conditions in which we've played have been very helpful in that regard," coach Marty Schottenheimer said yesterday. "It's hard to throw the ball in those kind of conditions."
Nevertheless, it's been a great season getaway for a defense that's been missing Chester McGlockton, who was supposed to be one of its greatest weapons. The 330-pound lineman, a four-time Pro Bowl performer with Oakland, underwent back surgery during training camp and is not expected back for at least another two weeks. John Browning, another defensive lineman, also missed much of the early season.
CHIEFS
The only soft spot has been against the run. The Chiefs' run defense is 15th in the league.
"I would have to say the defensive players as well as the defensive staff would agree that we haven't been as consistent as we'd like to be, particularly as it relates to the run." Schottenheim said.
But despite a weakness against the run, the defense has been particularly tough when backed up to the goal line.
"We had five situations when (the Seahawks) started possession inside our 40-yard line and they only got
six points," Schottenheimer said. "In two of those, they were at or inside the 10. That's as good as you can get in that situation."
On another point, Schottenheimer said the Chiefs have changed their policy and will no longer discuss injuries in any detail. There has been criticism in certain media circles they had not been forthcoming.
Schottenheimer said the Chiefs will only say that players as probable, questionable, doubtful or out.
"It's become apparent to this organization that there's some sense among some that we have been less than forthright or have not been providing enough information with regard to injuries." Schottenheimer said. "In light of that, we're not going to comment any further on injuries, other than that which is required by the National Football League."
49ers owner pleads guilty to charges
The Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. — San Francisco 49ers owner Eddie Debartolo Jr. pleaded guilty yesterday to failing to report an alleged extortion scheme involving former Louisiana Gov. Edwin Edwards.
As part of a plea agreement, DeBartolo was placed on probation and assessed $1 million in penalties. He agreed to cooperate in any future trials of the former governor and his son, Stephen Edwards, stemming from an investigation of their roles in the state's riverboat casino industry.
The agreement holds no guarantees on DeBartolo's future as an owner of an NFL franchise. League rules allow commissioner Paul Tagliaube broad discretion to ban owners connected to criminal activity.
target of the investigation.
"Until our office is able to complete a thorough review of today's agreement and related matters. I have directed Mr. DeBartolo to current his current inactive status with respect to both the affairs of the 49ers and the NFL." Taglabue said in a statement.
DeBartolo resigned as 49ers chairman and gave management control of the team to his sister, Denise DeBartolo York, in December 1997, shortly after he was notified by prosecutors that he was a
Tagliabue said York and 49ers president Larry Thrailkill would handle team affairs and the San Francisco stadium project through at least the 1998 season.
"Today's developments will thus have no effect on the current operations of the 48ers," Taglaube said.
DeBartolo gave Edwards $400,000 in cash shortly before his company received a casino license last year.
Neither of the Edward-ses has been indicted but both were

notified late last year that they were targets of the federal investigation that has gone on for more than two years.
DeBartolo did not speak in court. His attorney, Aubrey Harwell, told the judge that it was a mistake not to report what had happened in his attempt to get the license.
He's accepted responsibility,
Harwell said. "He's entered a plea. He's cooperating with the government. He voluntarily

stepped away from his team. He has been adequately punished. The man before you in court is a victim."
Aubrey Harwell
Eddie DeBartalo's attorney
The former governor, one of the state's most flamboyant politicians, was in the courtroom as DeBartolo entered his plea. Edwards has acknowledged receiving $400,000 from DeBartolo but has insisted it was for legitimate lobbying purposes.
FBI agent Jeffrey Santini testified that DeBartolo failed to reveal a scheme to influence the awarding of the state's last available riverboat casino license.
He said DebArtello was afraid he would lose money if he did not pay money to the Edwardses. Although the elder Edwards was out of office at the time, the former four-term governor still held influence with many state political figures.
DeBartolo has connections to other riverboats in Louisiana. He invested $1,000 in the Capri
Edwards has described DeBartolo as a close friend. The former governor said he was offered a high-paying job with the 49ers, but turned it down because he did not want to leave Louisiana.
casinos in Lake Charles and Bossier City, both licensed during Edwards' last term. DeBartolo later sold his interests in both for $85 million.
Eight people have been identified as targets in the investigation, which first came to light in April 1997 when federal agents raided the former governor's home and office, seizing cash and documents.
At times, the investigation has included cattle sales to state prisons, a defunct insurance company and a failed attempt to bring the NBA's Minnesota Timberwolves to New Orleans. But in recent months, the focus has shifted to riverboat casino licenses and how they were awarded.
Eagles coach worries about losing streak; refuses to give up hope
PHILADELPHIA — Eagles coach Ray Rhodes' face is haggard, his pride devastated. By his own admission, his name is all across the Philadelphia Eagles' first 0-5 start in 26 years. Still, Rhodes refuses to walk
The Associated Press
Still, Rhodes refuses to walk away.
"I am not going to quit." Rhodes woved Monday while assessing the latest damage, a 41-16 loss in Denver.
"When you still have people that really believe in you and you start to walk away from them, that's something that doesn't sit well with me or anybody that knows me," he said.
This terrible losing season is weighing on Rhodes. He called the latest loss both an embrassment and a nightmare.
It crushed him to walk across the field and shake hands with Broncos coach Mike Shanahan after the game. Rhodes and Shanahan were the coordinators for the San Francisco 49ers 1994 Super Bowl champions. Hired two days apart as head coaches, they have had vastly different fates.
"How can it be any worse than what it is right now?" Rhodes asked. "I mean, it's bad, man... I'm not going to say anything's rock bottom. I'm just saying right now that we've got to find a way to get this thing turned around."
Trapped by an eight-game losing streak dating to last year, Rhodes must do more than produce a victory. He must keep his players from turning on him if the slide worsens.
There is talk in the Philadelphia locker room that Rhodes is a lame duck who may not last the season.
"You hear it," said cornerback Troy Vincent, an ardent Rhodes supporter. "That's played a part in my mind because I came here specifically to play for Ray. I could have stayed in Miami."
"It's unfortunate that you hear it. Yeah, it bothers me. I'm pretty sure there's some people around here that would love to see him go. But here's a man that's proven he can win in the playoffs. He did it his first two years here."
But Rhodes' 20-12 mark in his first two seasons is only a distant memory. He is 6-15-1 in his last 22 games, including a wildcard playoff loss to San Francisco in 1996.
Receiver Irving Fryar bristled at the suggestion that some players were ready to give up on Rhodes.
The Eagles have lost 12 consecutive road games, and now they are in contention with the 1972 team coached by Ed Khayat that started 0-5 and finished 2-11-1.
"If anybody here is ready to give up, then stay in the locker room." he said. "Don't come out
NFL
on the field. If you want to fight, then let's continue to go out and fight. We have enough talent to win our fair share of games
and not have a losing season."
The loss to the Super Bowl champions in Denver was not a surprise. But the swiftness and thoroughness of the defeat jarred Rhodes.
"To sum it up the best I can, it reminds me of going to a fight and getting your teeth kicked in your head," he said. "As a coach, that's how I feel."
After the game, Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie seemed to indicate he was willing to let Rhodes finish the season. But there has been no ringing endorsement, no blanket immunity for Rhodes coming from the front office.
Rhodes did have a say in the personnel decisions that left the Eagles bereft of talent. Even if he makes it to 1999, Rhodes' reputation will be damaged.
"This is what the business is about," Rhodes said. "We have not played well. When your team's not playing well, your name is all over that."
The Eagles' best chance for a victory comes this week at home against winless Washington in what is being called the Paper Bag Bowl.
"We've hit rock bottom," Vincent said. "It can't get any lower."

President's fate in proposals
Democrats to meet to find new plan for GOP resolution
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — With the House set to begin a historic journey into presidential impeachment, outnumbered Democrats struggled yesterday to craft an alternative to the Republicans' open-ended investigation. The Democrats, facing defections, could not immediately agree on how to limit the time and scope of an inquiry.
House Majority Leader Dick Armey, R-Texas, scheduled the vote for tomorrow.
Clinton Investigation
The White House, meanwhile, complained the House proceedings were neither fair nor bipartisan.
"There is a certain sense that the die is cast on this issue," Lockhart said, adding that the White House was not yet giving up.
"I can't speak for the Republican caucus but it does appear after watching this for the last month that the leadership is pursuing a strategy for electoral advantage," said White House representative Joe Lockhart.
Later Lockhart said the White House saw little chance now of stopping a House vote in favor of impeachment proceedings.
The Judiciary Committee voted 21-16 Monday night to send the GOP resolution to the full House, which is virtually certain later this week to approve only the third presidential impeachment investigation in the nation's history.
Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo., said Democrats will meet again today to discuss options to the GOP resolution. Several members said that beyond trying to win support for a Democratic alternative.
Rep. Rick Boucher, D-Va., playing a key role in writing an alternative, said his proposal, which lost in committee, would require — before an inquiry begins — a determination of whether the conduct of which Clinton is accused of by investigators is grounds for impeachment.
Democrats clearly have a problem with conservatives in their party. Rep. Charles Stenholm of Texas, who has a tough reelection race, said he supports the Republican resolution.
Republicans have predicted they will get significant Democratic backing in the full House, which has dozens of conservative Democrats not found on the committee.
"Last night's vote was a culmination of a monthlong preconceived political strategy by Republicans in Congress," Lockhart said. "From the day they dumped out the Starr report to subsequent document
dumps with salacious and gratuitous material, they had a strategy, a political strategy, to try to embarrass the president."
While chief Republican investigator David Schippers reported that he found 15 substantial and credible potential grounds for impeachment, not a single committee Democrat budged to support the Republican impeachment resolution. All 21 GOP members voted in favor of the resolution; all 16 Democrats voted against.
The committee's proposal has no time limits and would not be confined to information referred by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr on Clinton's relationship with Monica Lewinsky.
Abbe Lowell, the committee's chief Democratic investigator, concluded in his report that no grounds for impeachment existed. "The president was engaged in an improper relationship which he did not want disclosed ... (that is) the core charge that Mr. Starr suggests triggers this grave constitutional crisis," he told the committee.
Schippers expanded Starr's list of 11 possible impeachable offense to 15, but most of the allegations still revolved around: the truthfulness of Clinton's testimony in the grand jury and the Paula Jones sexual harassment case; whether Clinton tried to obstruct justice to conceal his affair; and whether he tampered with witnesses, trying to enlist Lewinsky, presidential secretary Betty Currie and friend Vernon Jordan, among others, in the concealment effort.
Albright discusses West Bank accord
Secretary of State travels to negotiate peace talks
The Associated Press
JERICHO, West Bank — After inconclusive back-to-back talks with Israeli and Palestinian leaders, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said yesterday both sides still had to make tough choices to reach a West Bank accord.
Albright said, as she stood alongside Yasser Arafat in the Palestinian leader's headquarters. "Time is not on our side."
If we don't move quickly we may find ourselves without a process of peacemaking."
Albright wore matching peace-dove earrings, bracelet and pin, as she gave no indication pesky details, and Israel's
Arafat declined to be drawn out on the security issue.
"Peace means security, peace means freedom," he said.
PAMELA SCHWARTZ
Albright: Says time is waning to save peace process.
demand for tougher Palestinian measures against terrorism, had been cleared up.
"We recognize there are tough choices that have to be made by both sides as we approach the Washington summit." Albright said of the three-way talks Press Clinton intends to hold later in the
month with Arafat and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The aim is an Israeli pullback on the West Bank, the acquisition of more territory for the Palestinians and the start of negotiations over such issues as the future of Jerusalem and Palestinian aspirations for a state.
Whatever the outcome, Albright said the United States intends to pursue a better relationship with the Palestinian Authority.
She did not elaborate in response to a question whether the Clinton administration was setting the stage for dealing ultimately with a Palestinian state.
Earlier, in Jerusalem, there was no report of progress in Albright's meeting with Netanyahu, and a senior Israeli official, David Bar-Illan, said the Palestinian Authority had done nothing in the runup to the planned Washington summit to ruter terrorists on land under its control.
Albright placed highest priority on security measures but said there were a number of issues where parallel movement by Israel and the Palestinians was needed.
Netanyahu, for his part, said Israel had met its obligations — meaning a willingness to relinquish more land on the West Bank — and "the crucial question" was whether the Palestinians would reciprocate.
Bar-illan complained specifically about anti-israel provisions that remain in the Palestine Liberation Organization's covenant and the presence, he said, of 13 indicted terrorist suspects in the Palestinian police.
With the admonition that "time is running out," Albright is trying to narrow differences between the two before their meeting with Clinton.
"There is a sense of urgency," Albright said. "The United States can do a great deal, but the leaders have to be willing to make decisions."
But Netanyahu said there would be no agreement for an Israeli pullback unless the Palestinian Authority carried out its commitment to clamp down on Islamic militants opposed to the peace process.
And Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat, speaking to Associated Press Television News in Jericho, accused the
Clinton administration of allowing Israel to drag its feet on living up to past accords.
If Albright is unable to put the pieces together — most importantly secure from Arafat new guarantees to uproot terrorism — Clinton could come up short in his bid to play peacemaker in the Middle East as he successfully did in Northern Ireland.
AL-SUBAID
Arafat: Still is pushing for freedom for all Palestinians.
"I don't expect her to come back with all the issues resolved," State Department spokesman James P. Rubin said en route Monday.
Albright's aim is to "whittle away, clear some underbrush" to set the stage for intensive negotiations in Washington, he said.
Amnesty International points finger at America
WASHINGTON — Amnesty International has launched a yearlong campaign taking the United States to task for human rights violations and is calling on the country to set up independent bodies to monitor allegations of police brutality and other abuses.
The Associated Press
In a report on human rights in the United States, the London-based group accused the United States of maintaining a double standard: decrying other countries while not abiding by international treaties and principles of human rights itself.
Amnesty cases cities like that of Anthony Baez, who died in a 1994 struggle with a police officer, as evidence that such problems exist within U.S. borders. The officer placed Baez in a choke hold after becoming enraged when a football hit a squad car.
"When the U.S. House is not in order, it makes it far harder for the U.S. to take the kind of leadership
role in international human rights that many of us in Amnesty would like to see it take," said William Schulz, executive director of the American chapter.
Amnesty, a longtime vocal opponent of capital punishment, admonished the United States for its continued use of the death penalty. The group called the system racist, arbitrary and unfair.
International standards dictate that law enforcement officers should use force only as a last resort and in proportion to the threat they encounter. But the report accuses police of frequently disregarding these standards, pointing to the
1997 case of Abner Louima, a Haitian immigrant allegedly tortured by New York City police.
The report also criticized officers who use stun guns — a handheld device that emits an electric shot — or who "hog tie" suspects by binding their wrists and ankles together.
Stun guns, like any tool, can be misused, said a spokesman for the National Association of Chiefs of Police. But "it's actually one of the better devices, if used properly," said Gerald Arenberg.
Arenberg also acknowledged that police
can benefit from oversight, urging those who believe they have been victimized to contact such authorities as the FBI or state attorney. The Justice Department plans to review concerns raised by the group, said department spokeswoman Christine Dibartolo, adding that some of the cases already are under investigation. While the United States prides itself so keen for it.
While the United States prides itself as a haven for the persecuted, asylum seekers often end up thrown in
jail, detained indefinitely and treated as criminals, said the report.
Immigration and Naturalization Service officials stressed that people are not detained simply for seeking asylum and denied that they are detained for prolonged periods.
"The seeking of asylum is not what gets you in detention," said INS spokesman Andrew Lubenes. Those who enter the country without proper documents or who falsify their identity can be placed in the expedited removal process, but can be granted asylum by an immigration judge, he said.
Chinese, British governments agree on Hong Kong governing
The Associated Press
BEIJING — China and Britain declared a comprehensive partnership today, pledging to increase cooperation on everything from environmental protection to closer military ties.
The new phase in relations follows the smooth handover of Hong Kong from Britain to China 15 months ago.
"Both sides consider that the time is right for the opening of a new chapter in relations between China and the United Kingdom," British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji said in a statement after talks today.
Blair is the first British prime minister to visit China in seven years. His five-day trip capes efforts to repair the damage to relations debating Hong Kong, especially from British moves to increase democracy before returning the colony to China on July 1, 1997.
Blair and Zhu discussed human rights, the global financial crisis and the conflict in Kosovo, among other topics, said Chinese Foreign Ministry representative Tang Guoqiang.
Zhu welcomed Blair by emphasizing the rapport they established during the Chinese premier's April visit to London. "Although we
Zhu told Blair he should make himself at home and feel free to raise any issues he liked.
have only met a few times, it seems we have known each other for many years," Zhu said. Zhu told Blair he should make himself at
Blair raised the issue of human rights and urged Zhu to open talks on Chinese-ruled Tibet with the exiled Dalai Lama. Before leaving Britain, Blair had pledged to discuss those concerns but said he would do so quietly in keeping with the softer approach most European Union governments and the United States have adopted.
Tang, the Chinese representative, said human rights and Tibet were only mentioned briefly, and he said Zhu reiterated that the Dalai Lama must recognize China's sovereignty over Tibet and Taiwan.
Trying to brighten the atmosphere for Blair's visit, China signed the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights at the United Nations on Monday.
Zhu also announced that President Jiang Zemin has agreed to visit Britain next summer, the first Chinese head of state to do so in the 49-year history of the People's Republic.
Blair praised Hong Kong's smooth transition to Chinese rule, and said, "We are very happy about the present situation in Hong Kong."

Abdul-Kareem Ali, Lawrence sophomore. has his finger on the pulse of the underground hip-hop scene in Lawrence.
Ali, better known as DJ Abdul-Kareem the Royal Assassin, is host of the Hip Hop Hyde radio show from 8 to midnight on Saturday nights on KJHK.
He is from Atlanta, where hip-hop music thrives, and said he thought that hip-hop music was hidden in Lawrence.
"The hip-hop scene does exist but it's not that big," Ali said. "I think that it's gradually trying to get bigger."
Although some Lawrence clubs play top-4 music, Ali said that there were no places in town that specifically catered to what he considered true hip hop.
"There' s not enough cultural diversity in Kansas." Ali said.
He said that people should listen to all types of music and expand their musical tastes.
Ali became a disc jockey last year as co-host of Hip Hop Hype with DJ Apocalypse, Kansas City, Kan., senior.
"He's such a character with such a personality." Apocalypse said.
He thinks that Ali's show has a cult following.
During the first show of this semester, the telephone lines were lighted up with phone calls. People called to request
music they had missed hearing from the Royal Assassin.
"There are people out there who listen to the show religiously," Ali said.
Michael Canady, Wichita sophomore, said he listened to the show every Saturday night.
Ali tries to play music that people in Lawrence have not yet heard of.
"I like the music because he plays all straight-up hip hop." Caday said.
In addition to his duties as host of the radio show, Ali also is a rapper. He performed at last year's Battle of the Bands
"You can hear stuff on this show before it comes out on the shelf." Ali said. "We play whatever is 'tight' on the show."
and Day on the Hill and said that he would like to perform at other Lawrence venues.
He said he liked to rap about positive things and not the negative issues that were the focus of many mainstream hip-hop artists.
"There is more to life than all that bad stuff," Ali said.
Value of standardized testing graded
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
A report released yesterday said that ACT and SAT scores were disregarded for some or all of the applicants at more than 280 college campuses nationwide to create a more diverse student body.
The Cambridge-based National Center for Fair & Open Testing, or FairTest, focused on some schools that have de-emphasized standardized test scores including: Bates College in Lewiston, Maine; Muhlenberg College in Allentown, Pa.; Franklin & Marshall College in Lancaster, Pa.; and the public universities in Texas and California.
Officials at these schools said that they had
more diverse campuses than schools that used the standardized tests in their admissions processes.
Glenn Quick, assistant director of the University of Kansas Office of Admissions, said that the ACT and the SAT were important for admissions and placement purposes.
Quick said that the University looked at students' grade point averages and standardized test scores for admission. He said he did not believe that the tests affected the number of students who attended the University or their diverseness.
Melissa Fast, assistant director for testing services at the University, said that ACT claimed its tests were made as unbiased as possible but that a study had never been done
to show whether the tests reflected diversity. She said she thought it should be up to the individual institutions to decide how to evaluate applicants.
"Many schools have different requirements for their students," Fast said. "Personally, I think it is a good idea for schools to require standard tests because it provides a good baseline for them to go by."
Fast said that the University used the test results to place students in classes where they would be successful.
Maggie Kostner, Fairway senior, said, "I don't think that they should be required, because there is so much speculation about whether or not the tests are accurate."
The report indicated that most of the nation's 1,600 schools still used test scores to determine which students would be accepted. FairTest said that about 90 universities had made the tests optional or emphasized other criteria since 1994.
applicants will be required to take a precollege core curriculum class at an accredited Kansas high school, receive a score of 21 or better on the ACT or graduate from an accredited high school in the top third of their class to be admitted at the University, said Barb Conant, director of communications for the Board of Regents. Out-of-state applicants still will be required to take standardized tests.

Center's plan to exclude sophomores from advising
By Melody Ard Kansan staff writer
This spring's enrollment will be a new experience for freshmen and also for the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.
Because of that, Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, said sophomores would not be part of the center's advising plans this semester.
Tuttle said that this was the center's first year advising assigned groups of students. The advisers made the choice to work only with freshmen partly because they wanted to work out the best system with a smaller group.
"This is our first year and we are not fully staffed yet," she said. Tuttle said enrollment procedures would not change for sophomores and that sophomores would be advised by the same departments as they were in previous semesters.
Although she was not directly advised by the center last year, Marie Weigel, Brookville sophomore, said she went to the center last year for extra help with her schedule after her regular advising appointment. She said she was disappointed that the center would not be working with sophomores as well.
Tuttle said that the center could answer sophomores' questions but that they would not be advised at the center.
Freshmen appointments at the center begin Oct. 16 and will continue until Nov. 13. Freshmen who are enrolled in pre-professional schools will be dually advised through the Freshmen-Sophomore Advising Center and their schools.
She said that it was particularly important for underclassmen to choose alternate classes with their advisers because it increased their options.
"By the time they get through enrollment, some of the classes they want may be closed," Tuttle said.
Tuttle said alternate classes were not only important because they replaced closed classes but that they also could prevent a student from having to go through the Add/Drop process. If students list two alternates on their schedules but still get less than 12 hours after enrollment, they can get a completion form from the enrollment-center staff.
"The only way to go back to the enrollment center before Add/Drop is with a completion form." she said. "It allows students to go back to their advisers and find other open classes, but the only way to get a completion form is to have listed two alternates."
Student Senate doles out dough to groups
First Nations' powwow receives needed funds
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Senate allocated $2,805 to seven groups within 10 minutes last night. After that, Senate decided in favor of giving the First Nations Student Association $7,160 for its April powow. When the dust cleared, Senate had allocated $9,965. 16 percent of its non-allocation money for the year. Senate has $4,521 left for the remainder of the year.
David Reynoldson, Student Senate treasurer, may have a sore hand when he finishes signing all of the checks that resulted from last night's Senate cash giveaway.
Fourteen members of the First Nations Student Association were in attendance at the meeting.
Joshua Arce, Topeka junior and FNSA member, spoke to Senate about the importance of the powwow.
It gives the Lawrence community, the KU community and the Haskell community the opportunity to be together, to function together."
"It it's not just another drop in the bucket," he said. "This has significance."
After several speeches by FNSA members, only two senators voted against the bill.
"First of all, I totally support First Nations," he said. "I think they've got a good program, but the University of Kansas does not have unlimited funds, and we need to portion it properly."
Aravind Muthukrishnan, Nunemaker senator, voted no and said that Senate needed to be careful about doling out so much cash.
"My amendment was going to reduce the amount from $7,160 to $5,820." he said. "I know that they can put on a good show with even the smaller numbers they've had in the past."
Muthukrishnan wanted the bill to be amended to allocate the group less money.
Lance Fisher, First Nations Student Association Senator, said that the bill had more trouble passing the finance committee last week than passing Senate.
"Finance was concerned about running out of funds last year," Fisher said. "They nipick a lot more then Senate does, but Senate trusts them to weed out all the amendments that need to be made."
Greg Woolen, non-traditional senator, has supported the powwow for the past two years.
"This is a worthwhile group," he said. "They offer a good service to Lawrence and to KU."
Korb Maxwell, liberal arts and sciences senator, was surprised with the ease that it passed.
"I'm amazed that it went through consent agenda without a single objection," Maxwell said. "I think the best arguments were worn out in University Affairs committee."
Maxwell said that it was good for Senate to fund the group.
"It's a registered student organization, open to everyone," he said. "If lobbies for the Bill of Rights. Who can be against the Bili of Rights?"

Fine Arts dean resigns will return to teaching
the dean of the University of Kansas School of Fine Arts will return to full-time teaching at the end of this academic year after serving 13 years as dean.

KU debaters finish third at Kentucky tournament
Two KU Debate team members took third place for arguing for the rights of women in the military.
Mike Eber, Miami junior, and Grant Mckeehan, Overland Park junior, defeated six other schools in the University of Kentucky's round robin debate tournament that took place last weekend.
The top nine individual teams from the nation competed with each other in
eight debates, said Kevin Minch, graduate teaching assistant in the department of communications and assistant coach of KU Debate.
"It was very difficult and intense," Eber said. "The team's position was that there is discrimination in the military and the government should extend regulations to prevent it."
KU sent a contingent of three two members teams to Kentucky.
The debating team also participated in the Henry Clay debate tournament, represented by 119 teams from 45 colleges and universities.
Although KU lost to Wake Forest University in the semi-finals, its important achievement was defeating last year's National Champions, Northwestern University, in the quarterfinals, said Mich.
Eber was ranked seventh and Mckeehan was ranked seventeenth out of the 238 debaters competing in the tournament. Travels next to Southwest
KU Debate travels next to Southwest Missouri State University this weekend.
Each year, tournaments cover a broad topic. This year's topic is Title 7 of the Civil Rights Act, which deals with discrimination in the workplace, Minch said.

Couple gives University $2 million for scholarship
The University of Kansas received more than $2 million from a Prairie Village couple yesterday that will be used to establish a non-athletic scholarship fund.
Alfred and Genevieve Kuraner gave
$
the money to the Kansas University Endowment Association jointly with their daughter Ann Kuraner Smith of Leawood. The gift, which was set up as a charita-
bie gift annuity, will be invested by the University with the Kurans receiving a set monthly check for the rest of their lives. Ultimately the money will create the Alfred Kuraner Jr. Memorial fund to provide scholarships to any KU student not involved in intercollegiate athletics.
The fund is in memory of the late Alfred Kuraner Jr., who died in 1952. He is the Kuraner's son and the brother of Smith.
"I wanted to help future students who do well scholastically but lack adequate funds to have an easier time than I did," said Alfred Kuraner.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the gift would play an important role at the University.
"These kinds of gifts enable KU to both recruit and retain high-achieving students, a true measure of a great university," Hemenway said.
Alfred Kuraner said he had to pay his way through school working several jobs.
Alfred Kuraner, born in 1908, is a
retired attorney, who graduated from the University with a bachelor's degree in 1930 and a law degree in 1931.
He married Genevieve Hartley in 1930, who received her bachelor of arts degree from Baker University in 1931.
The gift will be administered by KU Endowment, an independent and nonprofit organization that serves as the official fund-management foundation for the University.

Kansas Governor Bill Graves issued a state of emergency early for seven counties, including Douglas, that suffered extreme storm damage Sunday.
Flooding leads to state of emergency declaration
M. C. HOWARD
Shawnee, Johnson, Franklin, Jefferson, Leavenworth and Wyandotte were the other counties damaged by flooding and tornadoes.
Graves: Declares state of emergency in seven counties.
Damage assessment teams began surveying the damage in Wyandotte and Johnson counties yesterday. Many streets, businesses and homes were damaged, said Blake McCall, sergeant for the Douglas County Sheriffs Department. Mickie Dana
housemother for the Kappa Delta sorority at the University of Kansas, said that the basement of the house had five to six inches of water, loosening tiles on the floor and ruining sections of the carpet.
"The water was coming in like a faucet," Dana said. "I feel very lucky, because we only had to throw away a few things that were ruined. It could have been much worse."
David Cobb, lieutenant for the Lawrence Police Department, said that the department responded to 52 calls in two and a half hours that evening. one of which involved the flooding at the Kappa Delta house, 1602 High Drive.
"We mostly responded to a lot of people whose cars were stranded in water," Cobb said. "This flooding wasn't as great of an emergency as the one in 1996, but it still brought a lot of water and caused a significant amount of damage."
Sunday's storms flooded northeast Kansas and northwest Missouri, killing at least seven people, including two men from Johnson County whose cars were swept off roads.
Graves' declaration directs state officials to activate disaster response and allows the governor to request a disaster declaration from President Clinton.

Henry T's kitchen damaged in fire
Oily rags, dryer heat cause flames to start
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Spontaneous combustion started a fire Tuesday that caused an estimated $50,000 damage to Henry T's Bar and Grill, fire officials said.
Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical Battalion Chief Jerry Karr said the fire started shortly after 3:30 a.m. in a laundry room behind the kitchen of Henry 'Ts' *3520 W. Sixth St.*
"The fire was the result of improper laundering techniques of vegetable oil-soaked cloth." Karr said.
cloth. The cloth rags were stacked in the laundry room when they caught fire.
Karr said employees had used water that was not hot enough to get all of the vegetable oil out of the
Karr said that the improper laundered, heat from the dryer and chemical properties of the oil itself combined to cause the combustion.
"Vegetable oil creates its own heat," he said.
The restaurant will be closed for at least a week while it's being cleaned and repaired.
Karr said that Henry 'Ts dining area was relatively undamaged and that the kitchen and laundry room got the brunt of the fire's heat.
A Lawrence police officer was driving by the closed restaurant early Tuesday morning when he saw smoke coming from it.
Henry T's co-owner, David Heinz, said the firefighters extinguished the flames in a about five minutes.
"The smoke damage was quite extensive," Heinz said. "We have to do things like clean the walls and
He said that Harris Construction of Lawrence, which is running the cleanup and repair efforts, plays a key role in determining when the restaurant will re-open.
replace the ceiling tiles."
While the smoke damage was the most extensive, the most costly damage was to the roof and electrical system, Karr said.
"We're shooting for a week, but that depends on whether or not they work around the clock," Heinz said.
The restaurant's owners have their hands full making inventory lists to determine the amount of food lost and are talking with their insurance company to determine the loss in business caused by the closing.
Heinz would not estimate how much money would be lost while the business is closed, but he said that their insurance company would use the restaurant's previous sales numbers to calculate a figure to cover the loss.
Universities' instructor recognized for work
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas professor will be honored tonight in Washington D.C. in the presence of two Nobel laureates, Vice President Al Gore and members of the National Academy of Sciences.
River Pierotti has had support from the National Science Foundation for five years to mentor students at Haskell Indian Nations University and the University of Kansas.
"I've been able to develop a really successful program for getting Native American students through the sciences," said Pierotti, assistant professor of biology.
Pierotti will become the first Tribal College/University Mentor of the Year at the 25th annual conference of the Society for Advancement of Chicanos and Native Americans in Science.
The Society exists to help Chicano, Latino and Native American students pursue research
careers and science teaching, Pierotti said. Top undergraduate students from those groups will attend the conference to find mentors and seek advice about graduate studies, he said.
"In an atmosphere where affirmative action and diversity are under attack, it's really important to have organizations like this," Pierotti said.
He said that he was proud to receive the award but that it wouldn't be possible without his students.
Corey Welch, Billings, Mont., graduate student, also will attend the conference to present his research on ecology. Pierotti is Welch's adviser and mentor.
Welch said that Pierotti's straightforward mentoring style provided direction without interfering with his students' best interests.
Pierotti also teaches courses at Haskell, and said it was an extremely important resource for the University of Kansas and the Lawrence community.
Welch teaches at Haskell and said he chose to take a position there partially because of Pierotti.
Dan Wildcat team-taught a course with Pieroitts at Haskell called Native and Western Views of Nature
Wildcat, Eueche native and Haskell professor of sociology and American Indian Studies, said Pierotti's contributions could be divided into three categories.
"I think he's served as a really valuable mentor—a native mentor—to indigenous students who have realt not been encouraged to go into the sciences," Wildcat said.
Pierotti also has built a bridge between Haskell and the University of Kansas by teaching courses that students from both universities could take together. Wildcat said.
Lastly, Wildcat said, Pierotti has made a great contribution to the universities through activism because he is the adviser to First Nations Student Association.
"I think he has really made a really positive impact in many students lives — both Native and non-Native." Wildcat said.

University, KU on Wheels need to provide benches, shelter for riders
Students at bus stops all across campus deserve to have benches and some sort of protection from the elements. Many bus stops on campus leave students without a place to sit and completely exposed to whatever harsh weather is upon them. This is a problem that needs to be addressed by either the University or KU on Wheels.
Bus stops such as the one at the corner of Naismith and Sunnyside are an example of what bus stops should not be. This particular stop has no benches and no shelter.
Students don't need to be pampered, but at the same time, there are many hills on this campus. Walking up and down them is cause enough for the University to
Bus patrons are left in harsh elements without a place to sit or escape the weather.
place benches wherever they can.
place benches wherever they can. The issue of shelters at bus stops also is a big one. Students trying unable to avoid the heat sit on the hot sidewalk while absorbing harmful and direct ultraviolet rays.
When winter sets in on campus, these same students will stand, unprotected, while slicing winds batter them and snow falls on them. Is this necessary? Is it too
great a trouble to provide for these students? The answer is no.
Having benches, shelters or additional sidewalk space at most bus stops would come at considerable cost, but one that can be justified.
The cost could be offset by having advertisements placed on the benches. Or perhaps individual organizations could sponsor a bench and permanently have their organization publicized on campus. Or maybe a particular class such as the class of '99 could donate a bench as a class gift. Regardless of how it is done, it needs to be done. Students have stood for this inconvenience long enough.

Composting at scholarship halls should serve as example to others
Although the scholarship hall composting program is on hold, efforts are being made to ensure that composting becomes a reality and an example of a student initiated program for environmental action on campus.
The program was started in 1997 Douthart and Grace Pearson scholarship halls were part of the initial effort. The project would like to involve several more halls.
Victoria Silva, Resource Conservation Manager at the Office of Conservation and Recycling, said the project has been put on hold because the location on West Campus is near
The program is on hold right now because of construction but will begin again.
a construction site. Until the area is safe, the project will remain in the development stages.
The plan is to use food waste from Douthart and Grace Pearson scholarship halls and animal bedding waste from Malott as compost. The compost will most likely be used for landscaping on campus.
Because the scholarship halls prepare their own food and control
the waste they produce from food preparation, the composting program is an excellent way for the halls to make a difference. Recycling biodegradable waste is an aspect of conservation residents can control.
With the help of the Office of Conservation and Recycling, the project has a good chance of success. Hopefully, the logistics of the site can be worked out soon so this program can leave the planning phase and enter the active phase.
The goal should be for composting programs to spread to other parts of the University.

Perspective
Magic Eight ball predicts 1998 election winners
Rodger Woods
opinion@kansan.com
While cleaning out my closet in a desperate attempt to find some winter clothes, I found
clothes, and an old Magic Eight Ball, the black, filled-with-green-liquid kind, not the clear, filled-with-amber-liquid kind. With the election less than a month away, I decided to put it to good use. I now present the state-wide election '98 predictions from the Eight Ball.
TAYLOR
Please keep in mind that these are merely predictions of who will win, not necessarily who should
It is rattle to disagree with my predictions because the Magic Eight Ball never lies.
Question No. 1: Will Bill Graves win a second term as governor?
Answer: Definitely yes.
Answer. Demilitary yes.
This is so easy I probably could have predicted it without the help of the Magic Eightball.
Although Tom Sawyer has gained a lot of respect from Republicans and Democrats for his willingness to "take one for the team," his chances of being governor evaporated when David Miller was trounced in the primary.
Sawyer has done an admirable job running a clean race and using what is an obviously doomed campaign to bring attention to various issues such as funding for secondary education and debt reduction.
Taxpayer Party candidate Kirt Poovey will get some ultra-conservative Republican support from those disappointed by David Miller's loss, but not enough to make it interesting. Darryl King of the Reform Party will be lucky to get enough votes to maintain the Reform Party's ballot access.
Question No. 2. Is Brownback back?
Answer: Yes.
Answer. 1
Democrat Paul Feleciano, Libertarian Tom Oyler and Reform Party candidate Alvin Bauman combined don't have Sam Brownback's name recognition. Besides, Brownback has been cruising around the state in a really cool bus.
Question No. 3. Can Dan Lykins beat Carla
Question No. 3: Can Dan Lykins beat Carla Stovall for attorney general?
Answer: No.
It is my understanding that Dan Lykins only entered the race at the last minute so Stovall wouldn't run unopposed. That isn't to say that he shouldn't win, just that the Magle Eight Ball knows that Carla Stovall is one of the most popular political figures in the state right now.
Things have generally been quiet in the secretary of state's office and that suits most Kansas voters just fine.
ular political figures in the state.
Question No. 4: Is anyone running against
Ron Thornburg for secretary of state?
Answer. Oscar the Magic Eight Ball was unaware that this is a contested race. The official listing says Democrat Don Rezac, Libertarian Steve Rosile and Sandi Boehr of the Taxpayers Party are also running. Until someone figures out what the secretary of state does, it is probably enough that Thornburg has not had any major scandals while he has been in office.
Ron Thornburg for secretary of
Answer: Unclear at this time.
Question No. 5: Can a Democrat win a statewide office this year?
Kathleen Sebellius is the only Democrat currently in wide office. She won last time because she was able to capitalize on her promise not to take money from the insurance industry and the shenanigans of the previous Republican incumbents. This time, she is facing a political newcomer in Republican Bryan Riley, and the burden of her own record of taking money from insurance company lobbyists and a decline in the number of consumer complaints that her office has been able to resolve. However, the Democrats full effort will be behind maintaining their only state-wide office. The eight ball believes that too many Democrats will stay at home on Nov. 3 for her to keep her office.
Question No. 6: Is Rita Cline going to hold statewide elected office?
Answer: Unlikely.
Answer: No.
The predictions of the Magic Eight Ball appear to be very accurate. If you are interested in other Magic Eight Ball predictions, perhaps in the fields of romance or sports scores, please send five dollars, cash only, to Rodger Woods, c/o University Daily Kansan, University of Kansas 66045.
Answer: Running against former Republican Majority Leader Tim Shallenburger is tough enough. It gets even harder because Rita has developed a reputation as a loose cannon while working as Shawnee County treasurer. Incidents such as changing from Democrat to Republican for a day, just to prove a point, and dinners with Fred Phelps don't do much to give the appearance of a steady personality. Shallenburger is trying to position himself for a shot at governor in 2002 and won't let this opportunity slain away.

Feedback
Columnist not fair to student athletes
I really have a problem with an column written in the Oct. 5 edition of The University Daily Kansan. The title is Spoiled players abusing athletic program chances by Meredith Toenjes. I am a pole vaulter on the Kansas track team writing this disagreement with one of my teammates who is also a pole vaulter.
We are held to the same if not higher standards as the average student because we are students first and foremost, athletes second. I personally am here to get an education.
As athletes, we represent this University. When we travel to compete, we must not only abide by the University's rules, but our team rules as well. If we violate these rules, we loose the chance to compete in the future and risk expulsion from the team.
Next, very few athletes receive a full scholarship. Each team is allowed a certain number of scholarships to divide.
A positive drug test for any substance would be cause for severe punishment. One such penalty would be the loss of one year of eligibility. Also, if the coaching staff decides to throw an athlete off the team, their word is law. This athlete now, most likely, cannot afford to further their education and must say "Do you want fries with that?" for the rest of their life.
If an average student uses drugs or alcohol to excess, no one really cares or even knows. Because I am a student athlete, I am held to higher standards by the NCAA, the Big 12 Conference and KU because they drug test their athletes.
Regarding the free tutors, I work hard for what I get. I go to class every day until 1:30. I go to practice from 2:30, sometimes until as late as 6 p.m. Because I'm at practice and have to schedule all my classes in one block in the morning, I can't meet with teachers or TA's to get the help I need. Also, during the traveling season, I end up missing classes.
This makes a tutor almost
I hope in the future, the columnists at the Kansan research their topics a little bit better and do not broadly generalize the actions of one or two athletes. Correlation is not causation. If one athlete does something wrong, that does not mean that all of us are bad. The same thing applies to the average student. If one student writes a poor article, I'm not going to think all journalists are lazy.
mandatory. I am majoring in mechanical engineering so there are very few class sessions that I can miss and still pass the course.

Also, I don't know where the author pulled graduating in eight years from. I have five years to get four years of eligibility in. After that, I'm on my own.
Sawyer's STARS program is viable
Recently, a column was published in the University Daily Kansan regarding Tom Sawyer's program to provide free tuition to Kansas students. Andrew Marino attempted to pawn off STARS as a simple political gimmick and his main thrust was that STARS would inflate grades and facilitate educational fraud. Apparently Marino didn't do his homework on this one.
While he certainly conveys his opinion, he blatantly ignores the facts of the matter. STARS is a program that will provide a $2,600 scholarship each year for four years to any in-state student at a vocational school, university, junior college, etc. Recipients must have a B average in high school and maintain a 2.75 GPA in college. The program will be financed using state lottery monies and will not cost the taxpayer one cent.
It imposes no burdens on the public and will help provide a brighter, better future to many students who might otherwise be unable to achieve it. Perhaps Marino has never sat up at night wondering. "Can I
An ally like Tom Sawyer is invaluable in this area. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, STARS is not some unreachable pipe dream made up to win votes for this election. It is based on the HOPE program, which has been operating in Georgia for more than five years now. This is a proven and successful enterprise. As far as the mistaken claims of grade inflation and educational fraud, the Council for School Performance reported that "since 1994, the number of HOPE recipients has increased, and the average SAT score has increased. Statistical analysis shows that as high school GPAs rise, SAT scores increase. If students were receiving HOPE due to inflated grades, we would not expect to see rising SAT scores."
This program does not inflate grades, and it does not flood colleges and universities with underachieving students. It has been tested and shown to clearly improve the academic standard. If Marino was truly concerned about high academic values and about giving each and every student a chance, then he would wholeheartedly support this program and its initiatives. His condemnation of STARS shows a great deal of partisan bias and personal opinion but very little truth.
really afford to be here?" Perhaps he thinks that money for college is easy to find or that higher education is cheap. Well, it is not, and I have sat up at night wondering. For example, my expected family contribution for this year was calculated at about $1,600. What this means is that my college experience for just one year costs about $8,600 more than my family could afford. Without scholarship and financial aid money, I would not be here. Paid tuition would be a huge benefit to students in similar or far worse situations Money does not grow on trees and some of us need all the help we can get.

Task force collecting data to improve campus safety
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Student body president Kevin Yoder assembled a campus safety task force this year to look at what needs improvement and what is performing well safety-wise at the University of Kansas.
Emily Heath, chairwoman of the new task force, said that the group was still gathering information.
"We want to begin by making a broad assessment of what is happening on campus," she said. "We want to find out what isn't being covered, what is being covered, what's being double-covered."
Heath said that the campus safety task force wants to have their report on safety complete by November. By January she said she hoped to see some of their goals come to fruition.
"We are definitely looking into the implementation of a Safewell program," she said. "Last year, students voted that they wouldn't mind
paying a fee for this program."
paying a fee for this program..
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordi-
nator, explained the Safewalk program might work.
"It's envisioned that there will be a phone number students can call at the Public Safety Office to reach a pair of students, male and female, to walk with them across campus."
Skalla said that there would probably be three pairs of students and that they would be equipped with radios and flashlights.
"This will probably cut back crime in general on campus," Skalla said. "It's less likely for something to happen if people know that there are three pairs of students walking around campus with a direct line to the Public Safety Office."
Saferide expansion is another group goal.
The expansion of Saferide was something Yoder said he wanted to see.
"This was one of the major issues of my campaign last year," he said. "I don't want people waiting 45 min-
CAMPUS SAFETY GOALS
- Implement a Safewalk program
- Expand the Saferide program
- Determine if blue emergency
phones satisfy the needs of students
Determine if campus lighting is sufficient for the safety of students
utes for Saferide to come by and then finally decide that they'll give up waiting and drive drunk anyway."
Heath said other things the group would look into were blue emergency phones and better lighting on campus.
By February, Heath said she wanted to see the group go from evaluating the situation to taking action.
"We'll go to the different groups and tell them what our research shows, and we'll tell them what we think needs to be put in place," Heath said.

Commentary
October brings World Series, hockey season
The weather is changing, and so are our sports. The World Series is right around the corner, and the first puck is about to be dropped in a new NHL season. It's time to say goodbye to the diamond and hello to the rink.
■ Hockey: If the NHL truly wants to become a major player in the world of sports, there is no better time then
hit a player in the world of sports, there is n the present. With the NBA expecting to lose regular season games because of the labor strike, hockey will have the opportunity to take center stage.
D. WILLIAMS
Detroit is poised not only to take center stage but also to make history. The Red Wings will attempt to be the first team to win three consecutive Stanley Cups since the New York Islanders won four straight from 1980 to 1983. The talented and experienced Red Wings should prevail in the West — but not without a serious challenge from the Dallas Stars and Colorado Avalanche. The Stars are stacked,
Kevin Wilson
Avalanche: The sheer especially with the addition of longtime St. Louis Blues' sniper Brett Hull, and the Avalanche never can be counted out as long as it has Sakic, Roy, Lemieux and Forsberg.
In the East, the Philadelphia Flyers appear to be the team to beat. Former Florida Panthers goalie John Vanbiesbrouck was signed in the off season to shore up Philly's porous defense, and superstar center Eric Lindros once again is expected to lead the Flyers to the Stanley Cup. Standing in the team's way, though, are the Buffalo Sabers, led by two-time league MVP goalie Dominick Hasek, and the defensive-minded New Jersey Devils.
Hasek, and the designers. The Red Wings and Flyers are the favorites for a reason. Look for them to square off in the Stanley Cup Finals with the Flyers skating away with the trophy in six games.
Baseball: Do you think the TV executives at Fox are sweating the possibility of a Cleveland and San Diego World Series? With large market teams from New York and Atlanta still alive, I have a good guess about whom they are rooting for.
they are roosting on the field. And, make no mistake, they will get their wish. The Yankees and the Braves will make it to the World Series because of their superior pitching, not their star-studded line-ups. New York has the deepest staff in baseball, and Atlanta has one of the best starting rotations of all-time. In the playoffs, pitching is the key to success, and both teams have plenty of it.
Now that the regular season is finished, it's time for me to hand out my awards.
National League MVP: Sammy Sosa, Chicago Cubs. Sorry Big Mac, but this is no brainer. The Cubs would have been 20 games out of the wild-card race if it had not been for Sosa's magical season.
AL Cy Young: Roger Clemens, Toronto Blue Jays. Clemens won the AL Triple Crown of pitching (wins, ERA and strikeouts) for the second consecutive year and didn't lose a game since the end of May.
NL Cy Young: Trevor Hoffman, San Diego Padres. The trio of Braves pitcher counteract one another, and Hoffman gets the tentative nod over his teammate Kevin Brown because of his out-of-this-world 53 saves. Whenever the Padres handed the ball to Hoffman, he delivered.
been for Gosta Singer, American League MVP: Juan Gonzalez, Texas Rangers. The Rangers made the playoffs, and Gonzalez was the main reason why. He led the AL in RBI with 157 and doubles with 50. hit .318, scored more than 100 runs and smacked 45 homers. What else can you say?

Soccer goalie proves her skill
Garrity nets several saves, team's support

Waiting.
WARNING.
That is what Katie Garrity is doing. The sophomore goalkeeper from Southlake, Texas, has been patiently standing by for a chance to prove herself in the nets.
Problem is, this is the second consecutive season that she has backed up junior Jen Fecke, so her chance may not come until Fecke graduates.
Garrity earned her only collegiate start Sept. 25 against Central Oklahoma.
"That game meant a lot," she said. "The team was very supportive of me that game. It felt good that the team trusted me in goal."
team it used match against Central While the match against Central Oklahoma was a scheduled home game, the game was changed to Perry-Lecompton High School when Super Target Field was deemed unplayable because of excessive rain.
"I was disappointed that we couldn't play at home, because I had friends that were coming to the game, but they couldn't find the field we played on," she said.
wip played. While the Jayhawks routed the Broncos that game 4-1, the game was in doubt for awhile. With the score 3-1, and Central Oklahoma gaining confidence, Garrity smothered a point-blank shot. Less than three minutes later, Kansas added their final goal. What was almost a 3-2 game was now 4-1.
"It was a good save, but I should have challenged the shooter earlier," she said. "My favorite save was a cross I caught in the first half. The entire bench shouted, 'Katie Garrity, from Southlake, Texas,' since it wasn't announced before the game. I've been told that I'm not good in the air, that I'm too short, so that save meant a lot."
"You can't fault her on the goal," he said. "The best thing about her is the team believes in her, and they trust her to be in goal."
Kansas goalkeeper coach Kevin Blokker said that Garrity played superbly against the Broncos.
Blokker, who played goalkeeper at the University of San Francisco from 1989-1983, said that he knew what Garrity was going through as a backup.
"I've been there before, and it's the toughest job on the team." Blokker said. "You have to prepare for every game like you're going to be the starter, but you end up on the bench. When the starting goalie gets pulled, the backup has to be ready in five seconds. Katie's mind set is positive. She trains hard everyday, and she knows her time will come. She needs to be ready when it comes."
While competition between Fcke and Garrity is intense, the two remain friends on and off the field.
"I love working with Garrity."
Fecke said. "We push each other in
training."
Garrity agrees.
"I work hard to make her better," she said. "We push each other to get better, and we're there for each other on bad days."
Garrity said that she was looking forward to the team's trip to Texas on Oct. 23-25 for matches against Texas and Texas A&M.
it's going to be really cool," she said. "My sister plays lacrosse at Texas A&M, and she is going to get a fan club for me. My whole family is going to be there. I would like to start, but I really don't expect to."
Life revolves around sports for Rohde

As far as Laura Rohde is concerned, everything happens for a reason.
From playing catch with her dad to becoming the starting setter on the Kansas volleyball team, Rohde said her life always had revolved around sports.
The Gatesburg, Mich., senior said she believed that each event in her life had occurred so that she would be exactly where she is right now.
"They taught me to be stronger, and they kept me out of trouble," Rohde said. "I know people who gave up sports and started doing drugs and other things, and that's just a road I wouldn't want to travel."
Rohde said she inherited her competitive edge from her father, Dale, a former Triple A first baseman in the White Sox organization.
"He didn't push me, but he was always there to catch if I wanted to pitch," Rohde said. "My dad is really knowledge-thirsty and when I got interested in volleyball, he went out and bought volleyball tapes so he could learn about it."
Rohde, whose first sport was T-ball, said she owed part of her love of athletics to her father's support and guidance.
.
Rohde, who has played every position on the volleyball court, began her career as a setter in sixth grade. She was moved to middle hitter the next year but actually was recruited by colleges as an outside hitter.
leges as an officer.
Late in her freshman year at Kansas, Rohde was switched to the setting position. Although she had played the position before, Rohde said the transition was a challenge.
"I was excited at first," Rohde said. "But 'I'm definitely a perfectionist, and I wasn't seeing the results I wanted to see as fast as I wanted to see them. It
was frustrating, and I kind of wanted to go back to hitting, but I just had to be patient and work at it."
"She understands the mindset of a hitter, because she's had the same one," Bechard said. "She's very competitive and aggressive."
ronde's patience paid off. Going into her fourth season as a Jayhawk, she ranks second all-time in career assists and has had more than 626 this season. She has been named to the all-tournament teams at all three of the Jayhawks' tournaments this year.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said that Rohde's knowledge of other positions enabled her to be one of the best.
"I like setting." Rohde said. "I touch the ball in every possession, and I have a lot to do with what's going on. It's a lot of responsibility, and I'm glad that I get to end my last three years setting."
Although Rhode said that she missed some aspects of being a hitter, such as getting kills, she said that setting was the best position for her.
Rohde said that she would end her athletic career after playing for a club team in the spring. She will graduate in 2000, and she said she hoped to find a job coaching and teaching at the high school level.
The only question that seems to be left is where she will end up. Although she loves the mountains of West Virginia and Wyoming, the homefront's pull is strong.
Her brother and his wife are expecting a baby in November. The baby will share the middle name Christine with Rohde, who said it would be hard to miss watching her niece grow up.
Although Rohde's future is unattain, she said she was not worried because everything happened for a reason.
"I don't know what will happen but God has his reasons, so it'll work out," Rohde has his said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 8).
You want to break through old boundaries this year, and nothing's going to stop you. That doesn't mean you have to be crazy about it, though. Make up a plan now. The unworkable parts will soon become obvious, as will stresses you never imagined.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Always spend money as if you didn't have enough.
Then you'll have enough when something unexpected comes along. You hate pinching pennies. The trick is to do it because you want to, just for fun.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) : Today is a 7.
This is a good day for discussing financial matters.
The subject may come up at work or at home. Let peo ple know how you'd like to have the money dis- subscribed. They'll spend too much if you don't.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5. You're feeling better as the day goes on and things get checked off your lists. Keep busy; even do the stuff you've been putting off. You'll be amazed at how your life lightens up. If you've been having trouble thinking clearly, that could be the problem. The stuff you postpone or ignore has a way of clouding your thinking.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6. The moon going into Gemini spurs you even more toward education. Gemini has insatiable curiosity, and that will rub off on you. Some of your most interesting discoveries today will be through the grapevine. To make sure your own secrets don't get spread all over town, keep them to yourself.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You're a great team captain and today you'll get to prove that again. You've got a big job, and you're under pressure to make it happen. You'll have to motivate others to help, or the whole thing will go splot.
Well, success is supposed to be just on the other side of splat. So even if you team goals up, don't give up.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You're strong, assertive and opinionated. That could come in handy today, because you're likely to run into an argument. You may think it's the other guy's fault, but that's only half the story. You like to stir things up once in a while, too.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 6.
You're doing well right now, but don't get cocky.
Your plans look good, but they can get fouled up.
Don't overlook the details; that's the sort of thing that could sink the ship. Also, be careful if you travel, especially this afternoon. First, check your belts and hoses and gasoline level.
Scarpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Quick thinking is required today, as well as quick action. You'll have an opportunity to make a really good deal, but you'll have to be firm and decisive. A person who's selling or buying won't be, and that's your advantage. You decide what's the best price and talk the other guy into it. This will be easy.
2
I
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Your luck is improving and holds good for several days. A recent frustration is starting to fade. Conditions haven't changed much, but your attitude is shifting. You're starting to feel you can handle anything.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
You had a bit of a free ride yesterday, but that's drawing to a close. Your luck holds this morning, but by afternoon, hard work is required to achieve your goals. Don't despair. This will pass. Meanwhile, explain what you're trying to accomplish for the zillionth time to a person you thought was smarter.
LAW ENFORCEMENT
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Today is a 5.
Don't procrastinate today. A normally easy job could be practically impossible later, as distractions keep you from focusing your attention. It's hard enough for you to focus attention anyway, so do as much as you can now, while conditions are right. You'll be able to tell the difference once they change.

K-State leaves home sweet home for where the Buffaloes roam
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN, Kan. — No. 5 Kansas State is finally leaving home and picking on somebody its own size.
Unbeaten in four home games against teams that combined to go 12-33 last season and smarting from criticism of a cream puff non-conference schedule, the Wildcats will be
at No. 14 Colorado Saturday. They
C
even born.
"I'm looking forward to it," said quarterback Michael Bishop. "It's an opportunity for us to go away and make a statement."
"I know they'll be ready to play, and I know we'll be ready to play," said Kansas State linebacker Jeff Kelly. "I feel if we come out and play ball and do everything right and execute well, it'll be a great game."
The Wildcats need a victory against the unbeaten Buffs to quiet critics who have been reluctant to elevate them beyond the preseason
position they were accorded for returning 22 starters from last year's11-1campaign.
Blowout victories against Indiana State, Northern Illinois and Northeast Louisiana hardly moved them in the poll.
Neither, to their chagrin, did a 48-7 romp over Texas on Sept. 19. When second ranked Florida lost that day, the Wildecats hoped to inch closer to the No. 2 Nebraska Cornhuskers who'll visit Manhattan on Nov. 14 in what's shaping up as the biggest game in Kansas State's 103-year football history.
But a week after being passed in the poll by UCLA despite a 73-7 win against Northern Illinois, the Wildcats were leapfrogged again, this time by Tennessee, and remained stuck at No.5.
"We felt like Texas was going to be a big test, but it wasn't really that much of a test. Colorado's going to be tough," said defensive end Joe Bob Clements. "We don't know how it's going to turn out, but it's definitely going to be a test for us."
Until last year, Colorado and Nebraska had been the only conference teams the Wildcats were unable to beat since Bill Snyder arrived in 1989 and wrought his
"Manhattan Miracle," turning the perennial saddacks into contenders. But a 37-20 victory gave them their first win against the Buffs since 1984.
"They're going to come in read," said running back Eric Hickson. "I think it really bothers them that last year we beat them."
Aiding the Wildeats will be the much-anticipated debut of running back Frank Murphy. After sitting out four games for accepting money from athletic boosters to buy a used car, the highly sought junior-college transfer who dazzled coaches in the spring with his 4.21-second speed in the 40 will finally hear his number called.
"He's excited. He's just ready to get out and play. He talks about how he's going to make big plays for us." Bishop said. "All I can tell him is, 'Hey, it's your opportunity Saturday. Don't talk about it, come out and show it.'"
Kansas State can offer all sorts of statistical arguments for the credibility it craves. Of the 12 major team statistical categories compiled by the NCAA, the Wildcats rank No. 1 in eight - scoring offense and defense, turnover ratio, pass efficiency and total defense, kickoff and punt returns and net punting.
Prairie View A&M OK'd to play
The Associated Press
Game suspension temporarily lifted
PRAIRIE VIEW, Texas — Prairie View A&M's suspension is suspended.
That means Prairie View will have a homecoming football game this weekend after all. The Panthers will play
Conference commissioner Rudy Washington "agreed to place the suspension in abeyance until further review," according to a release.
The Southwestern Athletic Conference reversed its course Tuesday, only a day after closing down the entire Prairie View athletic department for the school's defiance regarding earlier sanctions against its marching band.
Alcorn State in the first home game since they snapped the NCAA-record 80-game losing streak on Sept. 26. The band will be allowed to participate.
"It's great news for our students and alumni here at Prairie View," said Larry Raab, the
ATM
The league statement said the conference's Council of Presidents unanimously upheld Washington's decision to suspend Prairie View athletics. But Washington decided to lift the suspension for now.
school's vice president of operations.
"Placing the matter in abeyance means that although the commissioner's ruling was unanimously approved... the immediate imposition of sanctions against the university
has been delayed until the review process has been completed," the release said.
The whole mess stemmed from a Sept. 19 halftime brawl between the marching bands of Southern and Prairie View. Several band members were injured, and both schools incurred damage to uniforms and instruments. Each school blamed the other.
As part of the reprise, Prairie View agreed to withdraw its refusal to play Southern in any athletic events.
The conference immediately suspended both schools' bands for two football games. Prairie View's band sat out the Sept. 26 game at Langston — the school's first football victory since 1989.
But the band returned for a game against Grambling last week, sparking the league's anger.

Football players pray for fewer fouls
Refs rule prayer unsportsmanlike too celebratory
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, S.C. — South Carolina
invoice Zola Davis knees,
index finger pointing skyward,
spirit flowing from his soul to the
heavens, whenever he scores a
touchdown.
"I'm glorifying God." Davis sai's
"He knows what's in my heart."
On the ground, however, was a yellow flag last Saturday near the spot where Davis dropped to the turf in the game at Mississippi. Prolonged celebration, unsportsmanlike conduct, 15-yard penalty, back judge Prince Pollard said.
Davis, South Carolina coach Brad Scott and others are wondering if the Southeastern Conference has started calling fouls on religious celebration.
Florida Heisman Trophy winner Danny Wuerffel would clasp his hands in prayer following his touchdown passes. Several college stars kneel and cross themselves after crossing the goal line.
"I see kids do it all over in high
and in college football, "Scott said Tuesday. "Here's something that's filtered down, that in my opinion, is a positive act."
NCAA
Referees are not squelching athletes honoring their faith, said Bobby Gaston, the SEC's coordinator of officials. Gaston said he had yet to see a tape of the game that South Carolina lost 30-28, but Prince must have thought it went beyond kneeling.
The celebration rule came to college football three seasons ago to crack down on shimmy-filled, helm-wetting, post-score dance routines.
Kneeling was prohibited at first, but within two weeks Georgia athletic director Vince Dooley of the NCAA Football Rules Committee told league officials to back off calling kneeling penalties.
"There was a lot of pressure brought to bear from religious groups." Gaston said.
A new guidelines videotape does not include kneeling. It does show improper pointing, but not to the sky, Gaston said.
"Are we saying that we're going to call that, or are we going to be consistent across the nation?" Scott said.
Scott wants a clarification from the NCAA or the SEC. He's proud that his son, Jeff, a high-school quarterback, also points to the sky after scoring plays.
Gaston said Pollard told him that Davis was warned after an earlier touchdown pass not to kneel and point again. The senior said no one warned him, and Scott said he heard nothing from the side judge, who
usually warns the coach.
Players use a lot of things in the name of religion, Gaston said. But officials making snap judgments also can get overzealous, and this may be one of those cases, he said.
Exuberance and religious fervor don't disappear at kickoff, and Davis's gestures are not taunting or distracting, said the Rev. Phillip Reynolds of Columbia's Kathwood Baptist Church.
"It's just a young man enjoying life and thanking God for the moment," Revnolds said.
Carey Casey, a senior vice president with the Fellowship of Christian Athletas, said it gave hope to spectators and fans put off by other self-centered athletes.
"We don't want to belittle the referees, but the bottom line is if anything can be shown in a positive light, they should allow it." Csaev said.
John Adams, secretary of the NCAA Football Rules Committee, said complaints about flagging religious gestures have dropped off.
Louisville to appeal NCAA sanctions
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The University of Louisville will appeal the NCAA's finding that its men's basketball program is a repeat offender of NCAA rules.
The school's notice of appeal also said that the facts in an NCAA report returned last month did not support a finding of a "major" violation in the basketball program. The notice was not specific.
On Sept. 23, the NCAA's infractions committee gave the university a number of penalties for what it said were nine violations of NCAA rules. The penalties include a ban on preseason and postseason men's basketball competition for 1998-99, including the Conference USA tournament.
The volleyball program also was placed on probation in a separate NCAA finding, but the university is not appealing.
Because the new violation involving the basketball program occurred within five years of the starting date of previous penalties, the committee applied its repeat-violator provisions to the case.
Louisville is asking for a hearing for the basketball program to present its case in person.
The most serious basketball violation appeared to concern arrangements made by assistant coach Scooter McCray in 1996. McCray used his personal credit card to guarantee payment for a Louisville hotel room and keep player Nate Johnson's father from being evicted. The university disputed the NCAA's finding that McCray had tried to negotiate a discounted rate for the player's father.
The NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions announced its penalties last month for the nine violations involving rules governing extra benefits, recruiting, financial aid, institutional control and ethical conduct.
When the NCAA announced its report, Shumaker said: "The sanctions are fair, and I respect their conclusions."
The allegations to light early last year, and the NCAA in April issued a formal letter of inquiry into the two programs.
The committee placed Louisville on probation for two years in 1996 after an investigation into the men's basketball program unearthed questions concerning former player Samaki Walker's use of two cars during the summer and fall of 1995.
The letter labeled the alleged violations as major, including a charge of "lack of institutional control" in the volleyball program.

Free agent manager climbs into Rockies
Given a $8 million, three-year contract — a record for a manager — Leyland plans on staying longer than the two roller-coaster years he spent in Florida.
Most of all, the Rockies have money — something Leyland rarely had to work with during 11 seasons in Pittsburgh or this season in Florida, after the Marlins quickly disassemble their World Series championship team. They pared their payroll from about $50 million in September 1997 to about $5 million last month.
I rong no special tonic with me," he said after putting on a Rockies shirt. "I can be ornery at times. I can be cold at times. I can be rough at times. Don't take that too seriously. I'm dedicated to getting this organization into postseason play."
Leyand expects his players to stay longer, too — especially the ones who have yet to arrive. He's the first Rockies free agent under contract for 1999, but probably not the last.
Armed with the promise that farrih Colorado would pursue premium free agents such as Mike Piazza and Kevin Brown, Leyland was introduced today as the second manager in Rockies history.
Leyland praised fired manager Don Baylor and said he would always be remembered as the first manager of the Rockies.

"This franchise is one of the most successful not just in baseball, but in all of sports; they put 45,000-50,000 people in there (Coors Field) every night," Leyland said. "They have a chance to win, and now we'll find out if we can. I feel like we've got a chance."

Leyland is expected to bring along four coaches from Florida and Pittsburgh; hitting coach Milt May, third base coach Rich Donnelly, first base coach Tommy Sandt and bullpen coach Bruce Kimm. He also will hire his own pitching coach.
They'll have a better chance if they can sign a catcher, another starting pitcher and a center fielder.

The offense is already there, with 1997 NL MVP Larry Walker, the power-hitting Vinny Castilla, Dante Bichette and Todd Helton and the fast-improving Nilfere Perez.
"I've always said it's the toughest place in the majors to manage," he said. "We've got to do a psych job on some of those promising arms they've got there."

But it's the opposition's offense in hitter-friendly Coors Field that worries Leyland.
"That the payroll) was a huge factor," Leyland said. "I loved both places I've been. But, from a career standpoint, it is the most stable situation I've had, without a doubt. The only question is if we can get good enough. They need more chemistry there. But it's not a situation where everybody is up in the air every year."

The 53-year old Leyland is 996-1,039 in 13 major league seasons, winning three division championships (1990-1992 in Pittsburgh), one NL pennant and one World Series.
No doubt Brown, who played for Leyland last season, and Piazza, who spent a week with the Marlins this season, are on the Rockies' wish list.

House approves impeachment
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
After more than two hours of heated debate about fairness and Constitutional responsibility, the U.S. House of Representatives voted yesterday to begin a formal impeachment inquiry of President Bill Clinton.
The entire House will examine the charges described as potentially impeachable by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr. These charges include perjury and obstruction of justice. After an investigation, the House will determine if the evidence warrants an impeachment trial in the Senate.
Members argued passionately for and against the inquiry, and more specifically, the details of how an inquiry should be structured.
During the nationally-televised floor debate about the inquiry, House Judiciary Chairman Henry Hyde, R-111., described his position in support of an open inquiry modeled after the Watergate inquiry.
"Lying under oath either is important, or it's not important." Hyde said. "If the
same law applies to everyone equally, then that's the American tradition."
Hyde expressed his distaste that Congress had been forced into this position. He described the duty before the House as onerous, miserable and rotten.
House Minority Leader Richard Gephardt, D-Mo., argued against the Republican inquiry resolution in favor of more limited inquiry.
During the debate, Gephardt said, "This is the time to be bigger than we reali vare."
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, D-Texas,
explained during floor debate why some
House members wanted to settle this
issue quickly.
"We believe in redemption," Lee said.
"We believe in redemption," Lee said. In a 258-176 vote in which 31 Democrats voted with Republicans, House members decided on the inquiry that was more wide-ranging and open than the one proposed by Democrats.
Most Democrats in the house had hoped to limit the inquiry in time and scope. Their motion limited the investigation to matters related to Monica

Judge lifts gag order in Jones' case against Clinton
The Associated Press
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. — The deposition behind the impeachment inquiry against President Clinton will be part of the evidence released in less than two weeks by a federal judge as she relaxes her gag order in the Paula Jones case.
U. S. District Judge Susan Webber Wright said yesterday that she will begin releasing evidence from Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit on the court's Internet site Oct. 19.
In the file is Clinton's Jan. 17 deposition that is central to an impeachment inquiry approved in the House yesterday. Clinton allegedly lied in the deposition. He has said his answers were technically correct.
While Wright intends to release a transcript of Clinton's testimony, a videotape of his appearance will remain under seal. Wright said that members of Congress can decide what to do with a copy of the tape she gave the House Judiciary Committee last month.
"This court did not place any restrictions on the Judiciary Committee's utilization of the videotape in its impeachment inquiry and does not do so today." Wright wrote in a footnote to her order.
Wright imposed a gag order last October, because she was worried that the volumes of information being released might taint a poten-
trial jury. After leaked information indicated Clinton might have lied in his deposition, media groups, including The Associated Press, sued for access.
Clinton's lawyers initially objected to Wright lifting the gag order, and said it could jeopardize a fair trial if Jones' lawsuit was reinstated. But, since early September, they have raised no objections to the plan to open the files.
Wright ruled against the media but agreed to reconsider the decision as suggested by a panel of the 8th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals after tossing out Jones' lawsuit April 1.
The court said it would try to coordinate the release of documents so that detrimental information would be released about both sides at similar times.
Jones claimed that Clinton propositioned her in a Little Rock hotel room May 8,1991, when she was an Arkansas state worker and he was governor.
Wright dismissed Jones' lawsuit, claiming that even if her allegations were true, she could not prove sexual harassment in the workplace and claim damages.
Jones appealed and the 8th Circuit will hear arguments in St. Paul, Minn., Oct.20 on whether to reinstate the case. Lawyers for both Jones and Clinton have discussed settling the case before the hearing.

Board helps online site bring studies to teachers
The National Board of Governors of the Online Academy will discuss marketing strategies and technological development tomorrow at the Dole Center.
The Academy is an online program designed to help bring special education research into the classroom. It is run by the department of special education with the support of a $3 million, 3-year grant awarded by the U.S. Office of Special Education Program last fall.
Different online modules will be used in college courses or separately as
their own online courses, said Edward Meyen, principal investigator on the project.
Three modules for teacher education students will be online by the end of the November and a module directed at professors in teacher education is finishing up testing, Meyen said. The professor module was demonstrated at a board dinner last night at the Adam's Alumni Center.
The site is designed to sustain itself after the three-year grant is completed, but the academy is looking for ways to continue operations. It is pursuing work with state agencies and private industry to help fund the site, Meyen said.

Pharmacy fair to inform about health concerns
Sex, drugs, and asthma.
Today at the Kansas Union students will be able to ask questions regarding these and other topics at the Academy of Students of Pharmacy's Pharmacy Fair.
The fair is taking place for the fifth consecutive year and will take place from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. today in the fourth floor lobby of the Kansas Union.
Janelle Moore, Norton senior and organizer of this year's Pharmacy Fair, said that the event was a chance to clear up misunderstandings people had about pharmacists.
it's a great opportunity to come ask pharmacy questions," she said. "People don't often realize that pharmacists know all about over-the-counter drugs, too."
Members of the academy will staff a variety of booths to perform free medical tests, distribute information and hand out free drug samples.
In addition, the pharmacy students, Cathy Thrasher, director of the Watkins Health Center Pharmacy, and Larry Davidow, professor of pharmacy will be available to answer questions.
Moore said that this year's fair was made possible by a $700 allocation from Student Senate.

Deceased singer blamed for broken windshield
Lawrence Police arrested a Haskell University student Thursday for criminal damage to a Haskell security vehicle.

two Lawrence residents who were arrested in 1996 for drug charges face sentencing in Douglas County District Court.
Two arrested for drugs to be sentenced today
Lawrence residents Karen Keogh and Andrew Riegel were found guilty of drug-related charges Sept. 8, said Dan Dunbar, assistant district attorney.
The two will be sentenced by District Court Judge Jack Murphy at 4 p.m. in the Division 2 courtroom.
Both could face five to 10 years in prison but probably will receive only about 15 months probation because these were their first offenses, Dunbar said.
Undercover officers from the Douglas County Drug Enforcement Unit targeted Riegel in 1996 and bought marijuana from him before finally arresting him. Dunbar said.
Through Riegel, officers discovered that he had been buying marijuana from Keogh.
"Riegel was the initial target we were buying from. We followed him to her residence, where we observed her counting money in her bedroom," Dunbar said.
She also was found with more than four pounds of marijuana, over $3,000 and small amounts of crystal methamphetamine and cocaine, Dunbar said.

College-cost increase less than years past
WASHINGTON — The price of going to college rose an average of 4 percent this academic year—a lesser increase than in previous years but still more than double inflation.
Tuition and fees ranged from $66 higher at a public two-year college to $723 higher at a private, four-year college, according to figures released today by the College Board. For a public fouryear institution, the 4 percent equaled $132, for average tuition and fees of $3,243.
Tuition and fees had risen 5 percent the previous year and 6 percent each of three years before that. Because of an earlier round of double-digit growth, tuition at public four-year institutions has risen 50 percent in a decade. Family income rose only 1.5 percent.

Kansas City participating in AIDS test
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Kansas City is among the first of 10 cities selected for the study of a new AIDS vaccine.
About 100 AIDS-free volunteers who are at high risk for contracting the virus are being recruited for the three- to four-year study.
AIDSVAX uses engineered copies of the gp120 protein, found on the outer coating of the HIV virus.
Once injected, the vaccine is supposed to prompt the immune system to make antibodies, which can attack invading viruses before they infect healthy cells.
"Although we suspect AIDSVAX will work, we don't know for a certainty," said David McKinsey, the principal physician involved in the Kansas City study.
Henry Buck, head of gynecology at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that no vaccine is 100 percent effective because all viruses have multiple strains.
buck and two physicians at the University of Kansas Medical Center said that they were not comfortable commenting on this particular vaccine because it is so new. Buck did praise the treatment developments in general.
"Death is the cost of AIDS, and death rates have decreased rapidly because of the kinds of treatments being done." Buck said.
If the test shows AIDSVAX prevents AIDS infection, VaxGen of Brisbane, Calif., will ask the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to approve its general use.
"We're expecting numerous phone calls during the next few weeks," said Jan Meier, the Kansas City AIDS Research Consortium's clinical director and supervisor of the AIDSVAX study.
Opponents doubt the vaccine will be successful, arguing that earlier tests showed it boosted only one part of the immune system.
The Kansas City AIDS Research Consortium and community leaders lobbied VaxGen to bring the vaccine trail to Kansas City.
In the blinded trial, two-thirds of the U.S. volunteers will receive the vaccine, while the rest will receive a placebo.
If after three years results show the vaccine is highly effective, the study will be stopped and all participants on placebos will be given the vaccine.
AIDSVAX testing began June 23 in Philadelphia. Since then, test sites have opened in Los Angeles, St. Louis, Chicago, Washington D.C. and several other cities.
In addition to Kansas City, about 5,000 people in several dozen cities in the United States and 2,500 people in Thailand will participate in the study.
In small trials on people in the United States and Thailand, more than 90 percent of subjects who received the vaccine developed antibodies, an indication the vaccine may protect against HIV.

Government alleges Visa, MasterCard disallow technology
Credit cards charged with antitrust suit
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
The Justice Department's antitrust suit against Visa and MasterCard, filed Wednesday, is not likely to lower interest rates for credit card customers.
The suit is targeted at the development of new credit card technologies. It alleges that U.S. consumers have missed out because the credit card networks don't really compete against each other or against smaller networks.
"This is not a price-fixing case," said Clyde Stoltenberg, professor of business. "It's an issue of whether services are not being made available that would be if there was more direct competition."
The question arises — if the suit won't lower rates, then why is the Justice Department willing to spend tax-payer dollars?
"I think it's a waste of money," said Chris Kennedy, Lenexa sophomore.

"My credit card works fine as it is," he said.
Kennedy has a credit card and said that he was not particularly concerned with new credit card technology.
But the Justice Department is not happy with the status quo.
According to the Nilson Report, Visa and MasterCard is controlled by the same group of large banks. Those banks control 75 percent of the general-purpose charge card market. Visa and MasterCard bylaws prevent banks that issue their cards from working with smaller competitors such as American Express and Discover

rates already are competitive.
"I don't see consumers jumping up and down applauding the government for bringing this case," Stoltenberg said.
He said the case would be expensive and unlikely to produce benefits.
The government said that consumers need competition between the credit card networks.
"America's consumers have lost out," Attorney General Janet Reno said. "They have lost the benefit of vigorous competition between the two largest credit card networks, which means that they have not enjoyed the innovation that competition brings."
Stoltenberg doubts if the government will be able to prove its case, in light of the new technologies that are on the market.
we are seeing smart cards," he said. "It's difficult for me to conceive that the Justice Department will be able to show sufficient collusion to reduce the number of services available to the public."
Visa quickly was struck back against the government's allegations, issuing a statement that said consumers had unlimited choices among credit cards.
"The 6,000 Visa member banks not only compete against rival credit card brands, they compete fiercely among themselves," the Visa statement said.
KU students help save lives by donating time and blood
Intrastate rivalry incentive to give
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
When Scott Factor, Beachwood, Ohio, freshman, was in high school, he had a teacher who needed help for her sick daughter.
The teacher's daughter, who has since passed away, was dying of cancer and needed platelets, which are found in blood. Factor wanted to help.
Even though his platelets did not a match, Factor has continued donating blood. He donated for the ninth time yesterday at the Kansas Union.
"It's a good way to help people because it's so easy to do," Factor said.
The American Red Cross Bloodmobile, sponsored by the Interfraternity Council, Panhellenic Association, residence halls and scholarship halls, will continue to take donations from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. today at the Ballroom in the Kansas Union.
"We're hoping to get some last minute donators Friday so that we can reach our goal," said Chris Berry, co-coordinator of the blood drive. "But so far, things are going good."
Although some people get queasy or are afraid of needles, more than 500 students have donated blood since Monday.
The goal is to collect about 600 units of blood, Berry said. Last year, they raised about 550 units.
"We have a competition with K-State to collect the most units of blood," he said. "Since they're having their blood drive this week also, we have to beat them."
Berry said the University of Kansas won last year.
Gina Matteoni, Olathe sophomore, donated blood yesterday and said that beating Kansas State University was another

"This is my fifth time to donate and since you save three lives every time you give blood, that makes me feel good and is a real motivator," Matteoni said. "I also want to help KU beat KState. I've come to donate every semester since I've been here."
Donors receive cookies, lemonade and a free T-shirt after giving blood. Donor names also are entered in a drawing to win gift certificates or CDs.
"People need to come out here and donate blood," said Brad Ashley, who donated yesterday. "It's an easy way to help out the community and other people."

ACLU was deserving of funds approved by KU Student Senate
Much ado has been made lately about the cause of free speech and other civil rights and liberties at the University of Kansas. The most visible demonstration of this was two weeks ago when abortion protesters set up controversial visual displays around campus. They were welcomed by the University.
Other organizations dedicated to civil rights have not fared so well. On Sept. 16, the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union was denied funding by Student Senate. Their appropriations bill died in committee on the grounds that the ACLU is a partisan organization.
On Oct. 1, the bill was reintroduced and passed committee. It went before the full Senate on Wednesday, and was passed.
Senate allocated $307 to the ACLU last night at the meeting.
The charge of partisanship was false. The ACLU never endorsed or campaigned for political candidates on the national or local level in its near 80-year history.
The ACLU regularly takes cases and defends people who are unpopular with the political mainstream.
It is a sensible requirement that Student Senate has a responsibility to make sure that doesn't finance partisan activities.
The KU chapter of the ACLU does not fit the definition of a partisan organization. So Senate made it
right choice when it voted to finance the ACLU.
KU ACLU mission statement: "The purpose of the University of Kansas Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (herein, the Chapter) shall be to maintain and advance civil liberties, including the freedom of association, assembly, press, privacy, petition, religion and speech, and the rights to franchise, to due process of the law and to equal protection of the law for all people in affiliation of the University, through all legitimate and appropriate means. The Chapter shall also strive to promote dialogue on civil liberties issues on the University of Kansas campus and in Lawrence. The Chapter's objectives shall be sought wholly without political partisanship."

Computer ownership not fair mandate
The administration should not make computer ownership mandatory for all students. Recently, the idea of creating a policy requiring all students to have access to a computer at their residence was brought to the attention of the Provost Shulenburger. This idea could have several negative repercussions and should not be implemented.
This idea is useless without a plan to assist students who cannot afford their own computers. The most likely reason for students to not own computers is because they cannot afford them. They recognize the need, they just do not have the money.
Making students own a computer is only an idea now but could be policy later.
These students use the computer labs available on campus. If the University requires all students to have a computer when they arrive, will the University no longer feel obligated to provide computer labs? If this idea were to become a policy, computer labs may no longer be kept as well equipped as they have been. Computer labs allow many students to get by without owning a computer.
The real losers to a program mandating computer ownership would
be off-campus students and, more specifically, those who live alone or only have one roommate. Also students who already are broke and need to take out large loans or scramble for scholarships would be harmed greatly by such a policy.
This is not a University policy yet, but it has potential to become so. This idea could work if funding is found to help offset the price of computers for all students. Other universities already have teamed up with corporate sponsors to help implement the programs.
Until a workable plan for requiring computers comes forth, the current idea does not best serve students.

Consider a different view before criticizing someone
Perspective
Meredith Toenjes
opinion@ansan.com
How many of you know that this Sunday, Oct. 11 is National Coming Out Day? Now, if you're saying to yourself right now "Why should I care?" Well, frankly
B. M. C.
maybe you shouldn't. After all, if you truly care for less than 10 people, or if the people you care about all are chosen carefully by you primarily for their heterosexuality, then this may not affect you at all. At least not at this point in your life.
However, if you ever start any new relationships, it may affect you later. Maybe you'll marry someone who is close to a gay person. If you have kids, maybe they'll become close to a gay person, or maybe they will
be gay themselves. You could choose to cut these people out of your life, or tell them that you'll only accept them the way you want them to be. I choose to believe that most of you won't do that, and so I'll write the rest of this column on that assumption.
I'll bet that many of you are thinking things such as, "If they'd just keep it to themselves, there wouldn't be any problems," or "I don't go around talking about what I do in bed." Some of the gay people out there might be thinking. "Of it not anyone else's business what I do in my own home."
Well, here's my answer to the heterosexuals out there who may have thought these things: I don't go around talking about what I do in bed either. If I say, "My girlfriend and I..." and your mind automatically tries to picture two women having sex, and the rest of my sentence is, "...we went to go to the Renaissance Festival on Sunday but it was raining too hard." I'm not going around talking about what I do in bed.
So, here's my challenge to you. Try to go about your everyday life without mentioning to anyone anything that is related to your romantic/sexual partner. If you're single, then don't talk about anything that relates to sex or romance for you personally. Don't tell anyone about some cute person you saw or someone who asked you out.
All I said was that my significant other is a woman. If that is talking about sex, then *Touched* by *An Angel* and every other show on TV needs parental warnings for graphic sexual content.
If asked to make a comment on the looks or attractiveness of someone of the opposite sex, try to avoid the subject without being too obvious. Make a very generic reply if pressed. For those with partners, avoid pronouns, like he or she. Don't ever mention a name unless it's a unisex name like Chris or Jamie. If you're in love and deliriously happy, tell no one. Keep it to yourself on the assumption that your boss will fire you, your friends will abandon you, your parents will disown you and your siblings will be disgusted. Instead of imagining a big wedding with all your friends and family in attendance, imagine years explaining why you still have a roommate at 30 or 40. Try this for a week. If that's too long, then at least try it for a day. You may find a serious conversational hole with people you never would consider discussing sex with.
For the gay doubtest, I'll leave you with a story. In high school, a marginal hanger-on to my group of friends made a comment about how he thought all queens should be sent to concentration camps. I was scared, I'd not had good experiences with coming out at school, but I looked at him and quietly said, "I don't want to be in a concentration camp."
I'd nearly forgotten the whole exchange until about four years ago during a political science class at a community college. This man came up to me during a break and said how glad he was to see a familiar face. I didn't really recognize him as that boy, but he told me a few weeks into the semester how that day changed his life. He immediately asked a mutual friend what I'd meant, and she said, "Meredith's gay." The adult he became told me that was the day he started thinking about all that his dad and others had taught him about hating gay people. And if I hadn't come out to him that day, he might have gone on spouting the same hateful garbage.
This man is married and has two sons. His mother-in-law is a lesbian and his openness to the subject is one of the first connections he made with the woman who is now his wife. He plans on teaching his sons to respect people based on their personal actions and not to judge anyone because he or she may be different from you. He even has requested my input for the day his sons ask about grandma and her girlfriend. And if one of his sons turns out to be gay? They can feel safe in the knowledge that their dad loves them and just wants them to be a good person and to be happy.
If that's not worth the risk, nothing is.

Incumbents don't look promising for re-election
This November's races are shaping up much like they always do: social conservatives with bank and bravado vs.
Jonathan
Huskey
opinion@kansan.com
slightly less conservative Democrats. This time we'll concentrate on the House races and specifically the republican incumbents.
rine Kansas delegation to the House has a combined personality score equal to that of a rice cake and shares many similarities. Rice cakes are bland, stumped and a bad solution to weighty problems. No one up for re-election deserves to be voted into office (with the exception of Jerry Moran)
1st District, Jerry Moran. The only one of the three who knows what it means to be a freshman in Congress. One must not draw attention to oneself. You never hear anything from Moran, which is better than the embarrassment that is Jim Moran. Moran spent most of his time dealing with unprovocative issues relating to the rail and farming industries. Moran will win and probably should. He is respected and is a smart choice for a district that hasn't voted for a democrat since the invention of cheese.
PETER MICHAEL
Here's a short introduction to our House leaders.
2nd District, Jim Ryun: Ryun graduated from the I-Won't-Take-a-Stand-on-a-Tough-Issue-But-So-What-I'm-Famous School of Public Policy. Ryun likes to talk about his family (and they are cute aren't they?) more than his record and with good reason, because it's spotty at best. His major issue, surprise, is taxes. Basically, Ryun doesn't like 'em, and he wants to reduce about every tax there is and, with it, government spending. Like most politicians, Ryun wants to reduce the size of government except when it involves the big money grabbers like the over-financed military and transportation system.
The rest of the Kansas delegation likens themselves to the Mob Squad. Duck and cover, these guys are out to hollow the government with Bible bullets.
Talk of smaller government is lost on Ryun when it threatens his district. To hear the pride in his voice when he speaks of the money he brought to the district roads and military operations is nothing short of exasperating when he turns around and begins to attack other government spending. Ryun's legs are strong but his mind is, well
... not fit to be in a position of power. He refers to his Kansas roots and running career way too much to be taken seriously.
He sponsored legislation to take 50 percent of AmeriCorps funding and give it to a totally unrelated program for veterans. Not to say that the veterans' programs don't deserve more, but AmeriCorps seems to be working well for both the participant and the areas serviced. Tiahrt's actions show his contempt for government, even when it is helpful. Tiahrt kind of looks like a TV doctor, and I guess he wanted to play it out when he proscribed an amendment to take away all monies from any health program that gives away hypodermic needles to drug addicts.
Thrid District, Vince Snowbarger: His agenda is full of the same ridiculous pushbutton politics that social conservatives have copyrighted throughout the country. Of course he wants to do away with the National Endowment of the Arts and most other vestiges of governmental support of culture. Yes, how honorable of Mr. Snowbarger to support emotional and polarizing initiatives like a flag-burning amendment and prayer in school legislation. Way to get after the important stuff Vince.
Our final House contestant doesn't fall far from the same rotten tree. He is the 4th District's two-term representative, Todd Tlairt. He's more telegenic, but this doesn't begin to tell of the wonderful civic nature of Tlairt.
He, like most Republicans, gets nervous when discussion of campaign finance arises, so Vince decided to head off the issue with a bill of his own. His solution: a punitive bill that mandates jail time for those who violate campaign laws. While this idea gets points for being openly partisan, (no doubt Vince was thinking about the vice president when he proposed this bill) it is canceled out by another piece of Snowbarger legislation that removes the limit on how much a person can give to a campaign. Campaign finance reform is an important issue but one that Vince wants to keep as status quo instead of implementing meaningful reform. You can't blame Snowbarger; it is in his interest to do away with spending limits and to further corrupt a failed system.
Reactionary to say the least, Tiahrt's legislation would do wonders for the spread of AIDS and exemplify his misunderstanding of addiction.
Next time we'll look at the incumbent challengers.

Potato Mountain Cafe peaks interest
Restaurant plans new design, menu for next location
=y Chris Fickott
Kansan staff writer
A unique Lawrence restaurant is budding thanks to an increase in customers and interest in franchising.
The Potato Mountain Cafe, Eighth and Ver-
streets, plans to open a franchise showcase at 27th and Iowa streets in November.
The restaurant, which offers more than 100 kinds of mashed potatoes, will expand its menu to include beef, pork and fish varieties of mashed potatoes. It also will include salads and a vegetarian menu.
Brent McClun, president of Potato Mountain Cafe, said that the increased attention and business the store received since its summer opening would allow him to expand the business and fulfill his
original plans for the restaurant.
The store took one step toward expansion by moving to a larger location. The restaurant used to seat 10 at its location on Massachusetts Streets. The new location seats 54.
McClun said now he had the opportunity to design and build a store around the theme of a potato mountain.
The franchise showcase will feature a trail leading to a ranger station where customers will order mashed potatoes off of a menu posted on a picture of a mountain.
Then, customers will seat them-

them, customers will seat themselves at tables surrounded
selves at tables surrounded by log cabin walls and life-like Canadian alpine trees, he said.
"When you walk in,
it's actually like being in a forest," McClun said.
The present location has a similar look, decorated with posters of mountain peaks and pine branches. Kelli Durston Poster
Kelli Durkin, Potato Mountain Cafe manager, said she liked the decor at the restaurant, and she was interested to see the appearance of the 27th and Iowa location.
"I think it's fitting with the concept," she said.
Potato Mountain Cafe's menu also revolves around the mountain theme. The mashed potato dishes are named after some of the world's famous mountains, such as an Italian-style potato dish named Mount Vesuvius.
People Magazine will feature the Potato Mountain Cafe by the end of October. McClun said he was excited about the exposure.
"It's really starting to look up for us." he said.
McClun said that he was anxious to get the franchise showcase running so that prospective buyers could check out his store.
"As we grow and get all of this attention, we have calls nationwide about franchising," he said.
Durkin said that even though the restaurant was attracting attention from Lawrence and beyond, people were coming into the cafe for the first time.
"We're still bringing them in," she said.
The Potato Mountain Cafe offers a wide variety of toppings for its mashed potatoes. The store will be featured in People Magazine in October. Photo by Kate Levenson/KANSAN
Kohl's store opening highlights retail shift

The first of three new department stores along Iowa Street between 27th and 34th streets opened Monday, marking a recent shift of retail activity away from downtown Lawrence.
Kohl's department store, 3420 Iowa St., has its grand opening today. The store is scheduled to open at 8 a.m. with a grand-opening sale, contests and giveaways. The opening is preceded by a 7:45 a.m. ribbon-cutting ceremony.
KOHL'S GRAND OPENING
Kohl's has five stores in the Kansas City area and wants to expand its market with the Lawrence opening. The department store chain also has one store in Topeka and two in Wichita.
"We carry all the same brands as the moderate priced department stores." he said.
Gary Vasques of Kohl's headquarters in Menomonee Falls, Wis., said that the department store offered national brands of apparel, fashions, accessories and housewares at discount prices.
The store will have company in the south Iowa Street area later this month when two other department stores open. Sears will open

its first retail store in Lawrence on Oct. 21 at 2727 Iowa St. In the first week of November, JC Penney will relocate from 1801 W. 23rd St. to a new store at 34th and Iowa streets.
Marcia McFarlane, administrator for Downtown Lawrence, said that the boom of department stores on Iowa Street was not in direct competition with downtown merchants.
McFarlane said that Downtow. Lawrence's philosophy accepted the change in shopping trends from quaint shops to retail outlets.
She said that because downtown offered ambiance and atmosphere, consumers could stroll down Massachusetts Street, enjoy something to eat or drink and shop.
"We are now an area that we can bill as an attraction," she said.
McFarlane said that Weaver's
Department Store, 901 Massachusetts St., was the closest store downtown that could be in competition with Kohl's.
Joe Flannery, Weaver's president, said that his store would continue to prosper because it offered good brands, good prices and good customer service.
Weaver's is the oldest department store west of the Mississippi River. Flannery said that products, service and prices were the key to the store's longevity.
"As long as we continue to do those three, we'll be all right," he said.
"Nostalgia only gets you so far," he said.

Time arrives for freshmen to deal with homesickness
It is that time of year for freshmen — the novelty of college life has worn off, homework has piled up and relationships haven't materialized.
By Sue Franke Kansan staff writer
These frustrations are so normal for the first week of October that Frank DeSalvo, director of counseling and psychological services, refers to this time as "homesick week."
Prescription for freshmen October blues R
"Students have been at school long enough that they are having to confront relationship issues, roommate conflicts and difficulties in classes that they were not expecting," he said.
DeSalvo advised students that they could exert some control on their environment by direct communication with significant others and roommates. He also said students should develop a schedule and establish their own standards for success, rather than trying to meet the expectations of others.
"Parents may expect their children to be A students, when students could decide that, for them, a strong B is O.K." he said.
Holly Bastin, Lenexa freshman, said the transition from high school classes to large college lecture halls had been challenging.
"The homework is a lot to maintain on your own, especially if you're not prepared," she said. "It's like being part of a machine with large groups of people in class. You aren't an individual, and it's harder to get to know professors."
Scott Strawn, complex director for Hashinger Hall and Ellsworth Hall, commented on the struggles he sees freshmen go

through during the first of October.
"Students have been on campus for six weeks and haven't found their niche yet but want to get involved," he said. "Or they haven't met their husband or wife to be. They are also stressed out about their majors."
Damon Parker, Overland Park freshman, said that he did not worry about things, and that he hadn't chosen a major yet.
"It will probably be graphic design," he said. "I guess I'll have to figure it out by the end of next semester."
For help with career direction and deciding on majors, students can go to the placement center in Watkins Memorial Health Center or to Templin Hall's academic resource center.
Sorority donates teddy bears to kids
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
After more than a month of housing about 300 teddy bears, Sigma Delta Tau sorority members are heading to Topeka today to donate them to the Kansas Children's Service League.
"These children come from abused or less fortunate homes," said Anate Aelion, chapter president. "This is a way to maybe make them feel better, and the bracelets act as a symbolic bond."
The community service project began during rush in late August when the chapter asked rushes to help make friendship bracelets. One bracelet was put on the bear's wrist and one will be for the child who receives the bear.
The Kansas Children's Service League gives teddy bears to children when they remove them from their homes.
Sometimes they feel scared, angry or lonely, and the bears help ease their emotions, said Allison Deutch, project coordinator for Sigma Delta Tau and Des Moines, Iowa junior.
Deutch said she contacted the league about the idea because she wanted the sorority to play a part in making the children feel safe.
"Teddy bears are always a comfort, to any child," she said.
The new teddy bears were donated by various toy companies. Deutch said she was pleased with the amount of bears that they collected.
For its next project, the chapter will paint pumpkins for Halloween and donate them to either Lawrence Memorial Hospital or the Lawrence Boys and Girls Club.
African-American greek leadership focus of event
By Steph Brewer and Sarah Hale Kansan staff writers
a conference promoting African-American Greek leadership on predominantly white campuses will be held this weekend for University of Kansas students and students from at least 17 visiting universities.
"The purpose of the conference is to alleviate barriers and promote the optimal success of Black greek letter organizations," said Tamara Lewis, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs
The Black Greek Leadership Conference will be held at the Kansas Union today and tomorrow. The conference will open 7
tonight with a speech by Dr. Walter Kimbrough from Old Dominion University. It will conclude with a Show and party at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow.
With 838 KU students identifying themselves as African Americans, the conference will focus on teaching students about unity and holding active roles at a university.
Although the conference is targeted at greek organizations, it is open to all students and will feature workshops and speeches on all-inclusive topics such as grades and relationships.
The conference was founded at Central Missouri State University in 1986, Lewis said. This is the first year the University of Kansas has held the conference.
Robert Page, director of the National Pan-Hellenic Council and one of the co-founders of the conference, said that members of the council had been planning the two-day conference for more than a year and had a $12,000 budget. The University Coca-Cola contract, Office of Minority Affairs, Organization and Leadership Development Center, Office of Student Affairs, Office of Admissions, Provost Office and registration fees from the visiting universities funded the event
Michael Bell, Detroit senior
said it was important for African Americans on campus to utilize their leadership positions in their various organizations, and the conference would help teach this.
"I'm anxious to learn from other schools," Bell said. "It's more than just workshops and speeches. We'll see how other schools run."
Three programs will be run by KU faculty members and students.
Lewis and Page will speak on male-female relationships; Erica Hawthorne, Lawrence sophomore, will conduct a workshop, "Sister to Sister;" and Bill Nelson, director of Greek programs, will speak about building bridges between Greek organizations.

Hispanic group will celebrate heritage month through the arts
Weekly shows to be at Union
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Students will have a free chance to learn more about Latin American music and dance this month in front of the Kansas Union.
The Hispanic American Leadership Organization and other sponsors invited different Latino groups to perform every Friday at the University of Kansas.
This activity is part of the Hispanic Heritage Month celebration.
Janell Avila, president of the leadership group and Overland Park senior, said the idea of including free dance and music
performances to their calendar was not new, but this was the first time an event had been scheduled every Friday.
She said each group emphasized different musical aspects and regions of Latin America, but the groups all are based in Lawrence and surrounding areas.
The festival starts at noon today featuring Ballet Folklorico de Topeka. Avila said she learned about the group because three members of the leadership group were involved with it.
Lesil May, Topeka freshman and Ballet Folklorico member, said the group repertoire was based on traditional Mexican dances.
May, who has been performing for six years, said had learned to enjoy the culture by growing up in a Hispanic community.
HISPANIC HERITAGE Month
"This show will be a good way to express the Hispanic culture and get other people involved," she said.
Ortiz said the Ballet Folklorico helped to preserve Mexican culture in the United States.
Gabriel Ortiz, Topeka senior and 13-year member of the group, agreed with May.
"People like it because it is a lively performance," he said.
The other three dance groups participating in the Hispanic Heritage Month are Los Dancantes de St. John, Calero Group and Ole Group.
Avila said that Los Dancantes de St. John will play different music from Latin America and

the Calerio Group will perform the rumba and traditional balladas. The Ole Group will bring a Flamenco dance performance to campus for the second year.
All the shows start at noon. in case of rain or bad weather, the show will be held in the Kansas Union lobby.
Coming out can be stressful for students
By Monica Juarbe Special to the Kansan
The first year can be a trying time for many freshmen who are trying to make friends and establish a college social life. But for some students, the first year is more stressful than for others — because they are gav.
"When you come here as a freshman, you are dealing with so many other issues," said Chad Horsley Lawrence graduate student. "It's hard enough to make friends and meet people along with being gay."
Horsley 25, started telling friends that he was gav when he was 21.
Coming to terms with sexuality varies from student to student.
"I think students are coming out at younger ages, and it's becoming more accepted and commonplace for them to do that," he said. "And college is a good time to do that because KU has a very supportive environment."
"Students now, compared to five or 10 years ago, tend to be more comfortable with coming to terms with their sexuality," she said.
That was true for Leah Bates,
Poola freshman
Some find it tremendously painful and difficult, said Pam Botts, a Counseling and Psychological Services counselor. But she said the pressure was easing.
"I first realized I had bisexual children when I was about 12," said
Bates, "I decided to come out when I was 19."
Bates, who is now 20, said she waited until she was comfortable with her sexuality.
"I thought there was something wrong with me because I felt that way toward women and because I wasn't supposed to look at women in any other way than platonic." Bates said. "Also I had been raised in a Christian home, and homosexuality was very taboo."
Horsley said that as a small child he did not understand the concept of homosexuality.
"I didn't even really know what gay was until I was 14 or 15," he said.
Horsley is an Ellsworth resident who participates in programs to help students understand gay and lesbian issues and to help them come to terms with their sexuality. He spoke in a Sept. 29 program at Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall. The program was an informative session about homosexuality, featuring speakers telling their coming out stories.
"I don't think that a lot of people know what being gay or be an ally is all about, and that's why I do programs for it in the residence halls," said Horsley "What some people may not realize is that the KU closet is very packed, and I think that it is important for people to know that there are people that are 'out' that are going to be supportive of them."
COMING OUT DAY
National Coming Out Day is Sunday. Activities include:
- Tomorrow: Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates sponsored yard sale, 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., 1025 Tennessee St.
Proceeds will benefit the And Justice for All Conference.
■ Sunday: KU Queers and Allies patrick picnic, 2, to 4 p.m. at the South Park Gazebo, 13th and Massachusetts streets.
Sunday: Ecumenical Reconciling Fellowship picnic and gathering, 1 p.m., Broken Arrow Park, 31 st and Louisiana streets.
■ Monday: Q & A performance
"Come Out Talking," noon to 1 p.m. in front of the Kansas Union.
People need to know that not all gay people fit into stereotypes, Horslev said.
When deciding to come out, the issue of whom to tell can be important.
"I don't bring it up in everyday conversation," said Bates. "Mainly around straight people, I will stay more reserved. Once I am with allies and the gay community, I can be fully self-expressed."
For some straight students, like Amy Hull, Quenemo junior, sexual orientation revelations may be unwelcome.
"If it's someone I don't know, I have a problem. It's personal information that I didn't ask for," said Hull "At the pizza delivery place where I work this guy just told us that he was gay. I mean, we didn't need to know that to make pizazs."
Tribal event revisits land politics case
In 1831, the U.S. Supreme Court, composed of nine white men, decided that Native Americans did not have the right to govern themselves as a sovereign nation.
This weekend the second annual Tribal Law and Governance Conference will retry the case, Cherokee Nation vs. Georgia, to see what would have happened if Native Americans had served on the court.
Robert Yazzie, chief justice of the Navajo Nation Supreme Court, will preside over a court retrial of the famous decision from 1:30 to 5 p.m. tomorrow in the Burge Union. The retrial has no legal significance.
In the original case, the Cherokee Nation asked the court to stop Georgia from executing state laws that the Cherokees said sought to annihilate them as a political society. The Cherokee Nation also said the state had attempted to seize lands assured to the Cherokees by the U.S. government for its own use.
The American Indian Nations Supreme Court will hear the Cherokees' case argued by G. William Rice, attorney general for the Sac and Fox Nation of Oklahoma. Clay Smith, solicitor of the state of Montana, will represent Georgia.
Pere registration for non-students costs $150. KU and Haskell Indian Nations University students may attend the retrial and other presentations for free, but must register with the KU Tribal Law and Government Center at 864-3925.

When Allan Cigler, professor of political science, began teaching at the University
teaching at the University of Kansas in the 1970s, students had a slew of causes calling them to the voting box—most prominently, the Vietnam War and the subsequent draft. But for students today, finding a clear-cut reason to vote isn't as easy.
I a be surprised if a quarter of the campus showed up to vote," Cigler said. "People get involved when they see that they have a stake in what's going on. I don't see anything that will really affect student involvement in the next couple years."
He said that traditionally, the number of college students who voted had been about 10 percent less than other adult groups. The fact is, students have less of a vested interest in decisions made by elected officials, he said. For example, they are not generally paying property taxes.
Phil Stephenson, president of the KU Young Democrats, said he thought that student exposure to local politicians and issues was a perfect way to create more political awareness. The Young Democrats have registered 600 students at a booth in front of Wesco Hall since the beginning of the semester.
"Some of the state races will really help on both sides of the ticket because the issues have more of a direct impact on students," he said. "We've talked to a lot of people who never really felt like their vote mattered before."
Ward Cook, president of the KU College Republicans, said it would take a wave of fresh idealism in the federal government to motivate college students to vote.
"KU is a very apathetic campus," he said. "There is little or no motivation to vote in part because of what students see about politics in the media and in the political arena in general has lost the whole idea that political leaders are people we are supposed to respect and honor."
After the 1964 election, Newsweek conducted a poll of 380 potential voters between the ages of 18 and 29. Thirty-nine percent responded that they thought that government leaders could not make progress because problems in the United States have become too complicated.
"I think it's important to vote, because at the very least, students need to be aware of who's running and what's going on in the election," she said. "And students need to know that their vote could possibly make a difference."
But not all students have steered clear of the ballot box. John Gallon, Fredonia junior, went out of his way to vote in 1996. All the booths were full, so he just filled out his ballot on the side of a fire truck parked nearby.
"I think a lot of the issues in politics do affect students, like all of the educational stuff," he said. "I vote because if I didn't then I wouldn't have any room to complain about politicians doing a bad job. Plus, we have a chance to make a difference now about things that will matter to us in a few years."
Still, if student concern about political issues is gaged by the rosters of the two most prominent groups on campus, there isn't much to go around. There are 90 Democrats and 70 Republicans in their respective clubs.
Lindsay Davis, Bonner Springs senior,
echoed his comments.
It's easy to register
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
A big election is approaching quickly, and a few days remain before the voter registration deadline.
Patty James, Douglas County clerk, said it was easy to register in Lawrence and around Kansas. Every United States citizen 18 years or older without a felony conviction is eligible.
A form must be completed to register, James said. The form can be obtained at 10 locations in Lawrence and in several other locations in the Douglas County cities of Baldwin, Eudora and Lecompton.
KinderCare Learning Centers, 2333 Crestline Drive, is one example of a location in the city that accepts voter registrations. Center assistant director Dena Kent said that employees set up a small table near the entrance where people could complete the registration form.
The registration deadline is Monday, Oct. 19, and James said her office would extend its office hours for walk-ins on the 15th, 16th and 19th. The extended hours will be from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m.
"At least 100 people have taken advantage of this in previous years." Kent said.

Moore Rd.
Huswell Ave.
"On the deadline, we'll be swamped," James said. Other options for students, faculty and staff are the registration tables available through Tuesday on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union. A table also will be set up outside of Wesco Hall today.
James said her office, 1100 Massachusetts St., also would provide the form by mail to those who request it by calling 832-5267.
For students who are registered in other states or counties, James said there were two options — requesting an advance ballot from the county you are registered in or re-registering with a new address in Lawrence.
The tables are being sponsored by the Student Legislative Awareness Board.
For example, students from Wichita who want to cast their vote there should contact the Sedgwick County election office.
"If students want to vote in their home area, they should immediately contact the election office there or their parents to assist in getting ballots," James said.
Marilyn Chapman, Sedgwick County election commissioner, said that the earlier students contacted her the better. She said the special number to request a ballot by mail is 800-822-7011, ext. 7094. The request must be received by mail to the election office by Oct. 20.
For those selecting the re-registration option, the previous voting location is notified and the voter is removed from that voting list.
As of September, James said 55,089 people had registered in Douglas County. Independent voters number 17,712 and trail only the Republican registration, which is at 20,689. Democrats have 15,990 registered voters, and other parties account for the rest.
Someone who has permanently moved to a new address or had a name change must re-register, James said.
Some people think they have to declare a political affiliation to register, James said, but that is not a requirement. A registrant can choose to be registered as an independent.

'Hawks ready to wrestle Bears
Neither football team has won a Big 12 game thus far this season
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
Few teams can understand the trials and tribulations of the Kansas football team as well as the Baylor Bears.
The Bears, like the Jayhawks, have suffered and stumbled through their season thus far, losing games they had chances to win.
The Jayhawks will play the Bears at 6 p.m. tomorrow at Baylor.
"I think Baylor is a lot like ourselves," coach Terry Allen said. "The similarities are really intriguing. They have been good enough to be competitive in their Big 12 games, but not good enough to win, such as oursels. I think they are a good football team. It's just a matter of getting everything going in the right direction."
Baylor still is searching for its first conference victory after close losses to Colorado, 18.16, and a week later to Texas Tech, 31-29.
10, and a week later to Texas. Feel of
Kansas understands Baylor's pain.
Kansas understands Baylor's span. In all three of Kansas' conference losses, the team was either tied or ahead at some point in the fourth quarter.
In addition, Baylor is in its second season under a new coaching staff, just like Kansas. But there is a difference between the two teams.
"Baylor's played everybody tough this year," quarterback Zac Wegner said. "We've played everybody tough as well, so I think it's going to be a good game when we get down there, a good offensive game."
Baylor only has one victory for the season, but it came against North Carolina State, then ranked No. 20 nationally in a close 33-30 game.
Together, Baylor and Kansas have a combined conference record of 0-5.
Kansas has two wins, but neither came against a ranked opponent. In fact, the Jayhawks' victories have come against Illinois State, an NCAA Division I-A team, and the University of Alabama-Birmingham, an unranked Division I-A team.
Offensive tackle Dan Dercher said Baylor had improved since last year.
"It's really scary to play against them this week, but it's almost a must-win situation for us if we have any hopes for a bowl game," he said. "This is a real important game for us, so we need to come out of there with a win. And I know that's the way they're feeling, too."
Every must-win game for the Jayhawks this
season — against Oklahoma State, Missouri and Texas A&M — turned out less desirable than hoped. mainly because of mistakes.
"We'd like to just go in there and have a good, clean game," Dercher said. "No plays that are, well, what if this didn't happen, what if that didn't happen. We're not saying that we're five plays away from being a 5-0 team, just say let's go out there and not make mistakes and play our own game. I don't think there are many teams that can beat us if we do that, but that hasn't been the case so far."
Tight end Jason Gulley said he fully expected the team to be 3-0 in the conference at this point in the season.
After this weekend, the team plans to be 1-3 in conference play, despite the fact that Baylor needs the win as badly as the Jayhawks.
Wegner said the team had handled the losses well.
"We're just getting better as we go along." Wegner said. "Granted, it's frustrating to lose those types of games, but as a team we're not getting weighed down. You just can't let that happen."
Denmark native follows his heart to be a Jayhawk
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The pride of the Kansas men's cross country team came to Lawrence in a less conventional manner.
Junior Brian Jensen began his collegiate career at Okla.
10
While running for the Cowboys,
the Denm a r k native suffered
an injury to his lower
back that forced him
to return to his home
country for treatment.
Jensen: Returned to the states after lower-back injury.
When he was healthy and ready to return to the United States, Jensen decided to resume his career at Kansas, rather than at Oklahoma State.
The reason? Her name is Michelle.
"I met her in Lawrence at the cross country course." Jensen said of the woman he eventually married.
The two met at a meet during Jensen's freshman year in 1995 when Michelle was running for Kansas State. Michelle knew some people from Denmark that also knew Jensen. They met and started dating.
Michelle later suffered a career-ending injury, and when Jensen returned she convinced him to attend a school in Kansas
"She wanted to get in-state tuition and I liked this better than K-State," he said.
Kansas cross country coach Gary Schwartz is thrilled to have Jensen on his side. Jensen was supposed to be one of three elite runners on the team, but Ricardo Amezcu left the team for personal reasons and Kenyan native Rajiv
Nyambura is not eligible to compete.
"He's been great, we basically just added a No. 1 runner to the team we were going to have," Schwartz said. "He can be a benefit to our program in two ways — with his running ability, and he will push our other runners."
In his first race as a Jayahawk, Jensen finished second in the men's 8K at the Iona College Meet of Champions with a time of 24:55.7.
While he was in Denmark, Jensen competed for the national team. The coach of that team has talked to Jensen about returning for the European Championships, which will be held in Italy this December.
"He's physically talented, and he's also mentally tough." Schwartz said. "Those are two things that usually make a pretty good runner."
The team's next race will be tomorrow when they held the Bob Timmons
Tough weekend
The cross country team will face three top-ranked opponents this weekend.

Invitational at Rim Rock Farm. Jensen doesn't expect to finish second, as the race is loaded with ranked teams.
"As far as winning it, I'm not looking at that," he said. "It's kind of like nationals. I have no idea what place I'm going to get, but I'm not going to win it, I know that."
While Jensen has just two seasons to run at Kansas — he's fighting for a third — the 22-year-old is a second-semester freshman in school.
Jensen is majoring in human biology and hopes to be a chiropractor. His experience with rehabilitation in Denmark helped him make his decision.
"I just think that's the best way to treat things," Jensen said.
Soccer team hopes to score three games this weekend
By Brad Hallier Kansas sportswriter
it is going to be a long weekend in Oklahoma for the Kansas soccer team.
Between tonight and Monday, the Jayhawks will play three matches, or 270 minutes of soccer.
Defender Cynthia Dahle said that the entire team would be needed this weekend.
"It's going to take a lot of determination and perseverance to get through the weekend." defender Lindsey Loefler said. "Three games in four days will take a lot out of us."
The Jayhawks (5-5) will take on the Oklahoma State Cowgirls (7-2-17 tonight
State has proved that "They have had an excellent season so far," he said. "They are defensively sound and have scored often enough at key times to win."
Coach Dan Magner said that Oklahoma State had proven themselves this year.
Kansas has not beat Oklahoma State yet. Last year, the Cowgirls stole a 1-0 victory in Lawrence in a physical match, featuring 54 foul
"I'm really excited to play in Norman, "she said. "Since I've been here, we haven't played in Norman yet. I'll be playing in front of my family and friends. Many of my friends haven't seen me play since high school, and I've improved since then, so it will be nice to play in front of them."
The Jayhawks will battle the Oklahoma Sooners (6-4) on Sunday. The game will serve as a homecoming for Loeffler, a Norman, Okla., native.
Magner said that he was not looking at tonight's match as a chance for revenge.
"This will be a game that has great meaning to us in the Big 12 Conference," he said. "If the officials are going to allow the game to be physical, then we will step up and win our fair number of physical challenges."
"They have a 6-2 win over a regionally ranked 'Tula team.' he said.
"They do have some losses to weaker opponents, so I think the key will be to score early on them, to come out strong. If we allow them into the game, it could be a long afternoon."
Magner said that the Sooners had a young team with strong results.
Kansas will wrap up the weekend Monday afternoon in Norman with a make-up game vs. Texas Tech. The match was scheduled for last Sunday, but thunderstorms wiped out any possibility of playing.
"It will be a physically daunting task," Magner said. "It's an unfortunate set of circumstances that has led us to play so many games in a few days. It will be a true test and gut check for us. I believe this weekend will show us how badly we want to be in the Big 12 tournament."
The Red Raiders will be coming off a weekend of matches against Texas and 17th-ranked Texas A&M.

Big 12 directors announce new commissioner for conference
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Kevin L. Weiberg, a native Kansas who spent nearly a decade as a senior Big 10 official, was announced yesterday as the new commissioner of the Big 12 conference.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway, chairman of the Big 12 Board of Directors, said the board was unanimous in its decision to hire Weiberg, who sighed a three-year contract.
"During the interview process, he expressed innovative ideas," Hemenway said. "And he has a broad range of experience in financial operations, television contracts, the inner workings of major conferences, women's athletics and gender equity."
Weiberg said he was delighted to have the opportunity.
"I think it's a great and very competitive conference, and I

"What's most important right now is for me to see where the league is going, then look deep inside myself to make a clear-cut decision. So for now I'm keeping my options open," Jordan said in yesterday's Chicago Tribune.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
CHICAGO — Michael Jordan still hasn't decided if he will return to the Chicago Bulls.
Jordan still wavering on basketball career
Jordan said he won't make his decision until the end of the NBA lockout,

M
which already has wiped out the preseason schedule and could delay the start of the regular season. He backed away from previous statements that he wouldn't play for any coach but Phil Jackson, who left the Bulls after they won their
sixth title in eight years.
Jordan told the Chicago Tribune it would be a challenge to win a title with a new coach.
"For me, if there's no challenge, I don't want to play," Jordan said. "But the Catch-22 for me is that I don't want people saying I came back when I shouldn't have, or I stayed too long."
When the Bulls won their sixth title in June and Jackson decided not to return, Jordan hinted strongly that he wouldn't come back.
Jordan, 35, said he is completely healthy, and the love he has for the challenge of basketball is still there.
But he told the Chicago Tribune that he isn't opposed to playing for new coach Tim Floyd or for an organization still run by general manager Jerry
"I played with Jerry there the last five or six seasons, and we've been successful," Jordan said. "I don't like it. But that's not going to be my final deciding factor."
Krause, who isn't one of Jordan's favorites.
Jordan had nothing critical to say about Floyd, the former Iowa State coach he and Jackson referred to last season as "Pink" Flovd.
"I don't fault him. I fault Jerry Krause for driving Jackson away," Jordan said.
Floyd said Bulls chairman Jerry Reinsdorf told him he still plans to do his best to sign Jordan again.
Albert expects dismissal of assault, battery case
The sportscaster admitted in September 1997 to biting his former lover on the back in an Arlington hotel room. He denied allegations that he forced her to perform oral sex. In return for the plea, prosecutors dropped a felony sexual assault charge.
ARLINGTON, Va. — More than a year after Marv Albert pleaded guilty to assault and battery after a sexual encounter that turned ugly, his case goes back today to a judge who is likely to dismiss it.
Prosecuters wanted Arlington Circuit Judge Benjamin N.A. Kendrik to impose a jail sentence for the misdemeanor, but he refused and said the conviction would be dismissed if Albert got counseling and stayed out of trouble for a year.
"I'm absolutely sure that he's glad to have it behind him," Greenspun said.
Albert's attorney, Peter Greenspun, said Albert has met the judge's conditions.
Deputy Commonwealth's Attorney Barbara Walker said she expects Kendrick to issue an order today dismissing the conviction. A court hearing will not be necessary, she said.
The charges stemmed from an encounter in a Ritz Carlton Hotel room on Feb. 12, 1997, Vanessa Perchah, then of Vienna, told police Albert invited her to the room after he announced an NBA game between the New York Knicks and the Washington Bullets. She said Albert attacked her after she refused his request for three-way sex.
Directory assistance has no telephone listing for Perhach, and her lawyers, George DePolo and Daniel

Morissette, refused to comment. During the four day trial, intimate details from Albert's 10-year relationship with Perhach were revealed, including claims that the couple had previous experiences with rough sex and biting.
Albert: is doing radio play-by-play for the Knicks.
The prosecution also presented a witness who testified Albert bit her and tried to force her to perform oral sex in a Texas hotel room in 1994. She said when she entered the room, Albert greeted her wearing only a pair of white panties and a garter belt.
NBC fired Albert from his job as the network's lead NBA play-by-play announcer the day he pleaded guilty, and he quit his other job with the Madison Square Garden Network.
He since has married his fiancee, Heather Faulkiner, and accepted a job doing radio play-by-play for the Knicks and anchoring a sports talk show.

Oklahoma game haunts 'Huskers, Bobby Newcombe
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Battered and dazed, Bobby Newcombe shuffled out of Arrowhead Stadium last weekend.
No. 2 Nebraska beat Oklahoma State 24-17 but Newcombe's first road game as the Cornhuskers' quarterback wasn't easy.
"It was my toughest test mentally and physically." Newcombe said Tuesday. "I took a pretty good beating."
Every game is a learning experience for Newcombe. Up next is tomorrow's contest at No. 18 Texas A&M (4-1, 1-0 Big 12), provided an injured knee that hasn't fully healed allows Newcombe back on the field.
As of yesterday, the status remained unclear for Newcombe and backup Eric Crouch, who injured his hip against the Cowboys. If neither is ready, the Huskers (5-0, 1-0) have third-string Monte Christo.
In two home games, Newcombe looked so smooth leading the Huskers that it was easy to forget he's a sophomore who played wingback last fall. But last weekend, he was anything but polished.
Newcombe carried for 22 yards. Under his direction, the Nebraska offense — which went into the game rushing for 303 average yards — produced only 73 rushing yards, its lowest output since 1975.
Complicating matters for Newcombe; a swarming Oklahoma State defense and swelling from his partially torn knee ligament — an injury he suffered in the season opener and that forced him to miss two games.
"We just wanted Bobby to see some things from a different view," said quarterbacks coach Turner
Gill.
Adding to his frustration, Newcombe capped a third-quarter drive with a 6-yard touchdown run against Oklahoma State, only to be replaced on the next possession by Crouch, who led the Huskers to their second touchdown.
Later, it was disclosed that Newcombe had yelled at teammates while trying to kick-start Nebraska's struggling offense.
"I always try to stay calm and let the team know I have a lot of confidence in the people around me," he said. "At that game at times, I did get a lot more vocal than I usually am."
Gill said Newcombe did the right thing. He just went too far.
Newcombe: May not play because of a knee injury.
"We didn't
"We didn't move the ball as well we'd hoped, and that reflects on the whole offense," Gill said. "As the quarterback, you've got to do something, maybe verbally, maybe set an example on the field. Bobby did that."
Newcombe, who returned after Crouch was hurt, said he knows fans expect a lot from him, but he said his teammates expect more.
"My goal at the beginning of the season was not to impress the fans or anybody else out there," he said. "It was to lead the team to a championship season."
Newcombe has worked hard off the field. He's carrying 17 credit hours this semester, and by winter break, he expects to have 62 accumulated hours — enough classroom time to categorize him as a junior.
Newcombe said he pushes himself hard because no one can judge him more harshly than he judges himself.
"My own expectations, I haven't even come close to that yet." he said. "I can't really rate myself because I'm not 100 percent ready to go. I've shown him 'a able to play hurt in a game and lead us to victory, but I'm not at the level I'd like to perform."
Kansas volleyball to face rivals
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansas sportswriter
Balanced attack key to beating opponents
Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard said the Jayhawks would need to find a rhythm and establish a balanced attack against their Big 12 Conference rivals this weekend.
The Jayhawks will battle No. 16 Texas A&M at 6 p.m. today in College Station. Tomorrow they travel to Austin to face No. 13 Texas
After the win Wednesday at the University of Missouri-Kansas City, Bechard said his team had to be more consistent.
"volleyball is dependent on rhythm, and we played choppy in that match," he said.
Not all of that choppiness was the Jayhawks' fault. The game was televised and time-outs were taken every time a team collected five points.
But Bechard said his team also had lapses in concentration and consistency.
"We missed too many serves to develop a team rhythm," he said. "We played 12 players, which may have made us a little unstable. And it's tough to play a non-conference game in the middle of the week, but that really shouldn't have been a problem."
Setter Laura Rohde said the team's consistency needed to improve.
"We played at about half of our potential,"
she said. "We can't do that against Big 12 teams."
"They are both quality teams," Bechard said. "Texas is big and physical, and A&M has a combination of size and extensive volleyball background and technique."
The bayhawks resume their staring of conference matches against two Top 25 teams with two different styles.
Texas A&M, picked to finish fourth in the conference, are led by Stacy Skyora, reigning Big 12 Conference Player of the Week. Skyora has 202 kills and 177 digs this season.
Picked to finish second in the Big 12, the Texas Longhorns are led by Demetria Sance, three-time All-American and last week's Big 12 and National Player of the Week.
Both the Aggies and the Longhorns are 102 overall.
Texas A&M is 3-1 against Big 12 opponents, its only loss coming in a five-game battle against Texas.
Texas remains undefeated (4-0) in the conference before tonight's match against Oklahoma
"We have to get a pass to establish our game in the middle," he said. "We learned against Colorado that we can't just focus on specific players. You have to establish a balance."

Cross country team to face nation's best
Jayhawks to battle top-ranked Stanford
By Dan Ferguson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas cross country team has something to prove.
Coach Gary Schwartz said this weekend would be the perfect time to show that Kansas can run with the top teams in America. Both the men's and women's teams will compete in the Bob Timmons Invitational tomorrow at Rim Rock Farm north of Lawrence.
"There are two levels of importance to this meet," Schwartz said. "One is to prove that we can host a great meet, and secondly, the men have a real chance to show what we can do. We need to beat some good teams."
Schwartz said this was the team's most important meet to date, especially on the men's side.
The men's team has a tough road ahead - they will run against four of the top five programs in the country, including No.1 Stanford
The invitational also will serve as a qualifying meet for the NCAA championships, which will be at Rim Rock Farm in November.
Freshman Brian Jensen, who is coming off a second place finish at the Iona Meet of Champions, said the meet was extremely important if the Jayhawks hoped to compete
in the NCAA championships later in the season.
"It's very important qualifyingwise," Jensen said. "That's what we're looking for, but we also we need to see how we stand up against other teams."
Schwartz said the team was preparing as if it were a championship meet.
"This meet is a very big deal," Schwartz said. "It will provide us with a good test going into the conference season. We have to prepare just as other teams prepare for big games in the middle of the season."
The women will also face many of the top programs in the country including No. 2 Stanford and No.4
Colorado.
"I think there has been improvement with the women, but it's not observable from a team standpoint." Schwartz said.
The women's team is coming off a 14th place finish in the Iona Meet of Champions.
"Iimprovement is what we're looking for," Schwartz said. "Realistically, we're not going to be able to compete with the top teams at this meet."
Schwartz said the team's results depended on their readiness to compete.
"We're just trying to get everyone prepared," Schwartz said. "Then it will just come down to performance."

In the past 12 years, there's usually been something on the line when Washington traveled to Philadelphia.
But that was back when it was Joe Gibbs vs. Buddy Ryan, grudge matches like "the body bag game," so called by Ryan because his Eagles knocked out Stan Humphries and Jeff Rutledge on a
Monday night and the Redskins ended the game with running back Brian Mitchell at quarterback.
NFL
This year? It's two of the NFL's three winless teams coached
by men likely to be employed elsewhere soon: the Eagles' Ray Rhodes and the Redskins' Norv Turner. Worse, neither can get the first pick in next year's draft, which goes to Cleveland, it reenters the league as an expansion team.
The Redskins have scored more But they've also given up 169 points in their five losses, most in the NFL. And despite committing $57 million to defensive tackles Dan Wilkinson and Dana Stubblefield, they're next-to-last in the league against the run, worse than last year, when they were 28th.
"How can it be any worse than what it is right now?" asks Rhodes, whose team has scored just six touchdowns in five games.
"I mean, it's bad, man. ... I'm not going to say anything's rock bottom. I'm just saying right now that we've got to find a way to get this thing turned around." he said.
"Talent doesn't mean a whole lot if you don't put the effort out," says middle linebacker Marvcus Patton. "You've got to do a lot of things to let that talent show. You have ready to play, be confident in what you're doing."
Someone will have a little more confidence after Sunday's game. But probably not for long.
The Seahawks got the Pacific Northwest excited by starting 3-0 against the Eagles, Cardinals and Red
skins. Then came road trips (and losses) to Pittsburgh and Kansas City.
Denver (5-0) at Seattle (3-2)
The Seahawks could win here, just because the Broncos are probably due for a letdown. The Broncos have routed Philadelphia and Washington, too, with little fall off from the injured John Elway to Bubby Brister.
CHEVROLET
Elway may be back this week, but Warren Moon's cracked ribs mean that John Friesz, who replaced Moon in the Kansas City mud last week, or Jon Kitna, the designated quarterback of the future, will start. Seattle also will dust off Brian Blades to see if he can provide an alternate to receiver Joey Galloway.
Elvis Grbac returns for the Chiefs in this meeting of two AFC teams with Super Bowl aspirations. Kansas City's only loss was in Jacksonville, where special teams let the Chiefs down.
Kansas City (4-1) at New England (3-1)
B
New England's 30-27 win in New Orleans may have been a wakeup call. Drew Bledsoe, often maligned in New England, pulled an Elway-Montana-Marino in that one, driving the Patriots for the winning field goal in the final minute after throwing three interceptions.
"It makes you feel good to know that we've got a quarterback that can get the job done," says rookie running back Robert Edwards. "No matter what the situation is, he's not going to choke under pressure."
San Francisco (3-1) at New Orleans (3-1)
Two weeks ago, the 49ers sent Atlanta a message about being top dog in the NFC West. They're in the same position this week.
SUNY
STATE
FARMING
But this time San Francisco is coming off the 26-21 disaster in Buffalo, where it tied a league record with 22 penal
ties. That won't happen again, although the New Orleans defense is good enough to make things difficult, particularly if Jamie Brown, the 49ers' new left tackle, isn't any better.
The Saints seem to be winning back the paper-bag brigade, even though they lost last week for the first time.

Miami (3-1) at Jacksonville (4-
0) (Monday night)
There's more at stake here than the championship of Florida between intrastate rivals meeting for the first time. Both would love to play in a Super Bowl in their home state: the game is in Miami this season.
The Dolphins hope that last week's 20-9 loss to the Jets doesn't start them on their annual slide to mediocry. They've won their first three in four of five years now, but haven't been better than 9-7 the past three seasons.
The Jaguars need a breakout game — three of their four wins are by a total of 11 points.

are 9-3 since
midway through
last season, although none of the wins are against teams with winning records. This one is Dan Reeves' first game against the Giants since he was banished from the Meadowlands, meaning both teams should be fired up.
There's nothing wrong with the Giants that a little offense wouldn't cure. Bad as that offense is, it's only next to last in the NFL — Dan Marino and the Dolphins are worse.

Cowboys might
lose if Barry
Switzer was still the coach. But Chan Gailey is getting the most out of less talent than Switzer had in his early years, including Jason Garrett, who is 2-1 in his two starts in place of Troy Alkman.
The Panthers embarrassed themselves in Atlanta last week, and Kerry Collins stepped down as the team's quarterback. His replacement will be Steve Beuerlein, a former Cowboy.
Pittsburgh (3-1) at Cincinnati
The Steelers worked during their bye week on getting the offense back on track, particularly the passing game, which has suffered from the free agency loss of Yancey Thigpen and the confusion of Kordell Stewart under new offensive coordinator Ray Sher-

Neil O'Donnell will probably be back at quarterback against his old team. But the Bengals, who

New York Jets (2-2) at St. Louis (1-3)
Bill Parcells can confuse anyone — he's been saying Glenn Foley is his quarterback, but Vinny Testaverde started last week, even though Foley insisted his ribs were healthy. It's back to Foley now, but the bigger question may be Curtis Martin, who bruised his right thigh.
Looking for omens? The Rams have lost eight straight at home since beating another New York-New Jersey team, the Giants, last Sept. 21.
San Diego (2-3) at Oakland (3-1)
RAINING BEARS
Where's Vince Evans? For the second week in a row, Ryan Leaf has almost as much experience as the opposing quarterback. He's thrown 127 passes in his five games, while Donald Hollas, who replaces the injured Jeff George, has thrown 146 in six-plus NFL seasons.
The Raiders, whose wins are over the Giants, Cowboys and Cardinals, are another of those AFC West teams who could contend for the NFC East title. The Chargers aren't — they lost to the Giants, the only loss the division has to an NFC East team.
Chicago (1-4) at Arizona (2-3)
The Bears, who led in all four of their losses, finally figured things out last week, falling behind 27-10 against Detroit before rallying to win. Still, they've been outscored 61-0 in third quarters this season.
Buffalo (1-3) at Indianapolis (0-4)
Both teams got their first wins last week, the Bills in impressive fashion. 26-21 against the 49ers.
The Colts' 17-12 win over San Diego was Peyton Manning's first win as an NFL quarterback, although the offense covered 3.3 and 5 yards to get its final three scores, all field goals.

Iowa State player changes position to assist offense
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa—Players change positions all the time in college football, tight ends as much as anyone.
They move to defense as an end or linebacker. Sometimes they stay on offense and become tackles. But a tight end moving to center?
I o w a State's Josh Rank began the curious journey to his first collegiate start in Saturday's game with Missouri — as a guard.
IOWA STATE
CURLONES
Rank never got to play tight end in a game at Iowa State because he was held from competition as a freshman. He moved to center the following spring, spent last season in that position and switched to guard last spring.
Before those moves, he had never played on the offensive line. Once the Iowa State coaches saw Rank up close they figured they could make him a lineman.
"They thought I had a good frame to put on the weight, and
I've been able to put on good weight," he said. "I've been able to handle it. I think that was their thinking."
Rank bulked up. He worked out in the weight room, ate a lot of late night meals and took creatine, a dietary supplement used to add weight and strength, in the off season.
Rank began practice in August as the No.1 right guard but suffered a concussion during two a-days and sat out for 10 days.
"That's a lot of practices during two-a-days," Rank said. "I just was never able to battle back. I've got an opportunity now, and I'm going to do my best to take advantage of it."
Rank earned a starting job in last week's 54-33 loss at Texas. He will replace Eugene Bernal at left guard.
Iowa State also will have a new starter at right tackle. Marcel Howard, red shirt freshman, will replace Beaudet, who has been sidelined by a concussion.
Quarterback Todd Bandhauer, who will be counting on Rank and Howard for protection, feels both will play well.
"Josh and Marcel have played quite a bit," Bandhauer said. "It's not like those guys haven't played a down of college football. So I have confidence in those guys."
COLUMBIA, Mo. — If the success of an offensive line is measured in yards, then Missouri's frontline is one of the best in the country.
Mizzou's frontline is No.1 in Big 12
The Associated Press
The No. 21 Tigers (3-1) are averaging 298 yards rushing going into Saturday's game against Iowa State (2-3). That total is ranked first in the Big 12 Conference and third in the nation.
but I totally disagree," tackle Todd Neimeyer said. "I look at a stat sheet and see that we rushed for over 300 yards and held the ball for 35 minutes in a game, and that's where you get your credit as an offensive lineman."
One opposing coach after another, when asked about quarterback Corby Jones and running back Devin West, point to the large holes they are running through. West, who is averaging 176.5 yards per game, said it's well-deserved recognition.
With that in mind, all the accolades the Missouri line is receiving should come as no surprise.
M
"They need the respect," West said. "I think they might be the best run-blocking unit in the country."
The line is anchored by Neimeyer, a senior who has started 27 consecutive games. Three other members of the group, tackle Chris Meredith and guards Craig Heimburger and Cliff Smith, also are seniors. Center Rob Ritt, though he is only a junior, has started 25 games.
"The key to a good offensive line is experience, experience with each other," Heimburger said. "We know what we do wrong. We know how to make
changes and fix the problems on our own."
There were a few questions about the line entering the season. The Tigers had to replace first team all-Big 12 guard Mike Morris and second team all-Big 12 tackle
Travis Biebel.
Those questions were laid to rest in the first game, when the Tigers ran for 341 yards against Bowling Green. The offensive line shared the Missouri offensive player-of-the-week award. And the line has only improved since then, according to coach Larry Smith.
"I think the offensive line has gotten better every week," Smith said. "They started the season looking good. They're now really earning their reputation."
Wildcats hope to pounce on critics' doubts
The Associated Press
MANHATTAN — It's hard to say your team is ranked fifth in the nation in one breath but that it's not getting any respect in the next.
punting.
Yet that seems to be the unique position No. 5 Kansas State finds itself in this week as it prepares to go to Colorado and battle the 14th-ranked Buffaloes in what is agreed to be first real test of the season for the Wildcats.
Kansas State can offer all sorts of statistical arguments for the credibility it craves. Of the 12 major team statistical categories compiled by the NCAA, the Wildcats rank No. 1 in eight — scoring offense and defense, turnover ratio, pass efficiency and total defense, kickoff and punt returns and net
Yet their 4-0 record has been built on four home games against three patsies and a Texas team that's coming off a 4-7 season and making
the painful adjustment to a new coach.
It's no wonder the Wild cats have not.
C
been moving in the poll. But a victory against the unbeaten Buffers, in Boulder where where they haven't won in 25 years, would go a long way to dispel the critics who say they haven't played anybody.
"I'm looking forward to it. It's an opportunity for us to go away and make a statement." said quarterback Michael Bishop.
The Wildcats were given a 101, ranking in the preseason poll because of the fact they returned 22 starters from last season's 11-1 campaign.
But blowout victories against Indiana State, Northern Illinois and Northeast Louisiana hardly moved them up in the poll.
Neither did a 48-7 romp over Texas on Sept. 19. When second-ranked Florida lost that day, the Wildcats hoped to inch closer to second-ranked Nebraska, a Manhattan visitor on Nov. 14 in what's shaping up as the biggest game in Kansas State's 103-year football history.
But a week after being passed in the poll by UCLA despite a 73-7 win against Northern Illinois, the Wildcats were leaprogged again — this
time by Tennessee — and remained stuck at No. 5.
Until last year, Colorado and Nebraska had been the only conference teams the Wildcats were unable to beat since Bill Snyder arrived in 1989 and wrought his "Manhattan Miracle" that turned the team into contenders. Then, a 37-20 victory gave the Wildcats their first win over the Buffs since 1984.
Aiding the Wildcats will be the much-anticipated debut of running back Frank Murphy. After sitting out four games for accepting money from boosters to buy a used car, the highly sought junior college transfer who dazzled coaches in the spring with his 4.21-second speed in the 40 finally will hear his number called.

Holier than thou comedy sells its soul to be correct
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan staff writer
Iiked Eddie Murphy better when his movies were crude and sexist.
It's surely a sign of the impending apocalypse when parents can cart their kids off to a Murphy flick without worrying. His latest offering, Holy Man, is warm and fuzzy to the point of banality.
I am very proud of you. I will do my best to support you in your work and make sure you succeed. Thank you for your hard work and dedication. I will be proud of you.
That's fine, of course. The last thing we need is another movie in which characters pepper each sem-
tence with at least three uses of the Fword. That approach, too often disguised as "realistic" and "gritty," helped cheapen such movies as Clay Pigeons, Primary Colors and Good Will Hunting. The situation changes with Murphy.
HOLY MAN
The situation changes with Murphy. If Beverly Hills Cop saw
in a last-ditch attempt to revive the sagging ratings of a home shopping network, Jeff Goldblum (Ricky), right, decides to put an itinerant guru, Eddie Murphy ("G"), on the air in the movie *Holy Man*. Contributed photo

him elevating off-color language to the level of poetry, the newer, cleaner Murphy films find him reducing the language to homogenized drivel. In both Holy Man and last summer's Dr. Dolfite, the comedian looks lost amid all the family-values pabulum.
Murphy is "G." a bald fellow who wanders around Los Angeles in a Jesus robe and sandals. Two hard-edged yuppies (Goldblum and Kelly Preston) take pity on this evidently homeless man who gushes truisms that are normally encountered only in fortune cookies.
As it turns out, Goldblum is the manager of a financially struggling home shopping network that specializes in

nationwide phenomenon. Folks everywhere respond to his message of media-free living. Dogs and cats begin to live peacefully. And the network's profits sail into the stratosphere.
However, Holy Man coughs up enough crowd-pleasing silliness that it undoubtedly will be a hit. If not, there's always Boomerang II.
...
Artsy movie paints dull picture
Kansan movie critic
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Watching A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries is like listening to Paul McCartney's post-Beatles albums. In each case, you know that the artist is capable of so much more.
After their success in the early 1990s with Howards End and The Remains of the Day, director James Ivory and producer Ismail Merchant are in a rut. Their films about Thomas Jefferson and Pablo Picasso crashed at the box office and suffered from a potent dose of art-house pretentiousness.
Now they present A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries, a bland, aimless exercise in TV-movie theatrics. Set in the '60s and '70s, the movie finds the "Merchant Ivory" team spinning its wheels in a pointless, flat story about family relationships and sexual awakening.
Kris Kristofferson, wooden as ever,
stars as Bill Willis, an American
writer and World War II veteran who
has moved his family to Paris. Nights
in the French city are spent playing
cards and sipping cocktails with his
wife (Barbara Hershey) and other
rich American jet setters.
The movie focuses on Willis' children, Channe (Leelee Sobieski) and Billy (Jesse Bradford), whose American upbringing has kept the two emotionally detached from their peers.
Channe finds a soulmate in Francis (Anthony Roth Costanzo), a lad with a soprano that would put Julie Andrews to shame. While their hip-pie teachers read them beat poetry, Channe and Francis attend sexually tinged operas and annoy everyone within a 10-yard radius.
But Channe's father, suffering from a weak heart and a steel plate in his noggin, decides to move the family back to the United States so he can die

in good old American surroundings.
But his kids are no better off.
Channe. separated from Francis,
begins to experiment with sex, and
Billy turns into a couch potato.
Like many "Merchant Ivory" movies, this one has a tossed-salad feel; it's a medley of nuanced characters, metaphors and social mantras that barely stick together. Ivory dances around the edges as if he were afraid to give his story any momentum. He forgets that the only thing worse than an overblown Hollywood flick is a snobbish art flick.

Big 10 official named Big 12 commissioner
Continued from page 1B
appreciate the confidence shown in me by the presidents and chancellors," he said.
Hemenway said the board interviewed both Weiberg and University of Virginia athletics director Terry Holland on Wednesday.
Weiberg succeeds Steve Hatchell, who resigned May 7 after he reportedly came under internal scrutiny for his treatment of league staffers. Hatchell denied the allegations.
Oklahoma State associate athletic director Dave Martin had worked as commissioner in the interim.
Weiberg, a 42-year-old native of Anthony graduated with a bachelor's degree in education from Kansas State University in 1978. He received a master's in athletics administration from Western Illinois the next year.
His first job out of college was as sports information
director at Wayne State College in Nebraska. He then spent 1980 to 1987 as an athletics representative, assistant athletic director and associate athletic director at Wichita State University.
He was associate athletic director at the University of Maryland from 1987 to 1989 before moving to the Big 10 as associate commissioner and chief operations officer. In that job, he was responsible for the league's overall financial and office management.
Weiberg was promoted to deputy commissioner, second-in-command to Commissioner James Delany, last August.
Domestic & Foreign Complete Car Care
Kansas Athletics Director Bob Frederick said the choice was a good one.
"Kevin is a bright, young athletic administrator with 10 years of great experience at an outstanding conference working with an outstanding commissioner," Frederick said.

Midterms bring seasonal stress
Exercise, sleep help students deal
By Carolyn Mollett
Midterm season is here.
Tonight, students in 33 sections of of Western Civilization I and II will take midterm examinations.
But unlike final exams, there are no regulations that govern midterms, said Richard Morrell, University registrar. This means nothing can prevent students from having all their exams on the same day or close together. Also, unlike finals, students still must continue to do daily homework while they study for exams.
Mary Ann Saul, clinical social worker for Counseling and Psychological Services, said students should try to plan ahead and organize their time so they could concentrate on one thing at a time. Maintaining a regular routine will also help students stay focused and reduce stress, Saul said.
Mali Thompson, Salina junior,
will begin studying early this week
for her two midterms, a week in
advance. Each midterm will be a
large percentage of the grade she
receives in the course.
Thompson said she would spend at least six hours studying for each exam and she would still have to finish her daily assignments.
Foy Keith, Lawrence sophomore,
won't be able to preserve his normal schedule. Keith had his first midterm exam of the semester last Wednesday. His last midterm is tomorrow and he had an exam on each day in between.
Saul said maintaining a healthy lifestyle would reduce stress. To stay healthy, students should exercise regularly and uphold normal eating and sleeping habits.
"Are midterms stressful?" Saul asked. "Yes, indeed. We see a reflection of that."
UNIVERSITY POLICY
If any examination conflicts with a student's obligation to other regularly scheduled classes, the student shall be accorded the opportunity to take the examination or test at a time NOT in conflict with other regularly scheduled University classes.
See page A4 of the Timetable for more information.
Tips for midterm relief
He said he would ideally study for five to six hours for each exam. But in practice, Keith said, he would probably spend a maximum of two to three hours studying for each.
Tips for midterm relief
- Maintain your regular routine
- Eat three meals per day
- Get sufficient sleep
- Exercise
- Plan ahead to allot enough time for studying
- Reduce alcohol intake
Jason Benavides/KANSAN
The weekend would have given Keith a brief break from the exams,
but he said he wouldn't be able to study much because he had two jobs. Still, Keith wasn't overly concerned about the exams.
"If I don't do well, there'll be other times," he said.
Keith maintains his relaxed attitude because he does better when he worries less, he said. He listens to the radio or watches television to keep his mood light when he studies.
Minority enrollment up 12 percent
Increase attributed to student activity
Chancellor Robert Hemenway's goal of increasing diversity on the University of Kansas campus is starting to be realized as minority enrollment is up 12 percent since 1994.
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
This fall, 2,734 ethnic minorities are part of the University's 27,625 students. In 1994, there were 2,444 ethnic minorities out of 28,046 students.
At KU, ethnic minorities are students who identify themselves as African American, Hispanic, Asian or Native American. The figures do not necessarily reflect the total number of minorities because students are not required to report their ethnicity.
Robert Page, assistant director of admissions, said he attributed the increase to minority student involvement in recruitment efforts. He said that prospective students were more likely to choose the University if they had heard about the positive experiences of current students.
He also said that the multicultural recruitment plan and the Office of Admissions' collaboration with other departments were factors in the increase.

Columbus Day creates waves of controversy
Lawrence public schools not teaching Italian explorer as America's discoverer
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas students remember being told as children that Christopher Columbus was the man who discovered America on Oct. 12,1492. Times are charging
Columbus is no longer acknowledged as the man who discovered America, said Ruthi Rapp, social studies coordinator for the Lawrence Public School District.
Today, Christopher Columbus Day is met with controversy.
Some textbooks now say Columbus did not discover the country, but he brought diseases that eventually killed the indigenous peoples of America.
Rapp said Columbus Day no longer exists on her Lawrence Public Schools' calendar.
Instead, the day is now noted on Rapp's calendar and around the world as Discoverers' Day.
"We want to be careful with the young ones not to misrepresent the truth," Rapp said. "Textbooks don't present it that way; teachers don't present it."
One teacher at Prairie Park Elementary School, 2711 Kensington Road, does mention Columbus in her class.
Stephanie Strange, second grade teacher at Prairie Park, said that she still discussed some aspects of Columbus' voyages.
"We discuss the three boats, we discuss the controversy, but we don't discuss America," Strange said.
Strange said she didn't teach that Columbus was the discoverer of America.
"You just want to make sure that you present all the facts. I let them draw their own conclusions. You don't want to put it in their mind one way or another," Strange said.
some KU students were not aware of the changes being made in the school system, but said they agreed with the new way of educating — or not educating — children about Columbus.
Andrew Nelson, Naperville, Ill., sophomore, said that when he was young he had been taught
COLUMBUS DAY IN AMERICA
Oct. 12, 1866 - The Italian population of New York organized the first celebration of the discovery of America.
1792 - A ceremony organized by the Society of St. Tammany, or Colombian Order, took place in New York honoring Columbus and the 300th anniversary of the landing
Oct, 12, 1869 - When Italians in San Francisco celebrated the discovery of America they called it C-Day.
1892 - President Benjamin Harrison proclaimed the 400th anniversary of the event.
1905 - Colorado became the first state to observe a C-Day.
1920 - Since then the day has been celebrated annually.
1971 - President Richard Nixon declared Columbus Day a federal public holiday to be celebrated on the second Monday in October.
Source: www.usembassyajarta.org
1937 - President Franklin Roosevelt proclaimed that every Oct. 12 would be C-Day.
that Columbus had discovered America.
He said that he believed children deserved to be told about the controversy regarding Columbus Day but that Columbus deserved to be mentioned.
Columbus Day has been a federal public holiday since 1971.
It was first officially celebrated in 1792 by the Society of St. Tammany, or Colombian Order, in New York City to commemorate the 300th anniversary of Columbus' landing.
Today, Columbus Day is predominately an American tradition, said Stephen Kellogg, instructor of French and Italian at the University.
Kellog said Italy, Columbus' native country, did not pay attention to the holiday.
Rally celebrates cultural diversity
The First Nations' Student Association and the Multicultural Student Coalition will conduct a rally today from 11:45 a.m. to 1:15 p.m. in front of Wescow Hall to promote awareness of the diversity of communities on campus.
The rally will feature speakers from the First Nations, African-American, Asian-American and Latino communities.
Sona Gitarza Liu, president of the Multicultural Student Coalition and Lawrence Junior, said that the event was not a protest of Columbus Day.
Instead, she said, it was intended to make students aware of a different viewpoint than the Euro-centric view of Columbus Day.
The holiday, celebrated nationally today, traditionally honors Columbus' discovery of America.
"It is important for people to realize that Columbus Day is not something celebrated by colonized people of the Americas. We look at this day as the Indigenous People's Day, a day of survival," said Raven Heavy Runner, president of the First Nations" Student Association and Browning, Mont., senior.
Liu said that Columbus Day was an opportunity to celebrate cultural diversity.

"Although we cannot change the past events, we can educate people about what historical events mean to different cultures," she said.

Runners up with the sun to raise funds for CASA
About 375 runners and walkers went to the Lied Center at 8 a.m. yesterday to participate in the 15th annual Sun Run, which supported the Court Appointed Special Advocates.
The Sun Run, which was sponsored by the Kappa Alpha Theta sorority,
raised at least $5,000.
"There are many abused and neglected children in Douglas County," said Gayle Gerritz, Kappa Alpha Theta community service chair. "We're hoping to help them with our donation to CASA."
CASA volunteers are trained to speak for children in court to help determine what is best for the child's future.
The 5-kilometer and 10-kilometer races took place on West Campus, and participants received T-shirts and food after the races.

Court sentences man on drug charges Friday
One of two Lawrence residents found guilty of drug-related charges Sept. 8 was sentenced to 36 months probation
Friday in Douglas County District Court.
Lay in Douglas County District Court. Andrew Rileg and Karen Keogh were arrested in 1996 by the Douglas County Drug Enforcement Unit for several drug-related charges including the sale and delivery or distribution of marijuana. Keogh appeared in court Friday but rescheduled her sentencing for Nov. 2.
Riegel could have been sentenced to five to ten years in prison but received probation because of his behavior after the arrest.
Harry Warren, Riegel's attorney, told District Court Judge Jack Murphy that Riegel had gone into drug treatment, didn't do or sell drugs anymore and only had sold drugs to support his own drug habit.
Murphy said that if Riegel discontinued his drug treatment, it would be a violation of his probation terms.
Warren also told Murphy that Riegel had been cooperative with officers at the time of his arrest and had supplied information to police about another investigation.
Through Riegel, officers discovered that he had been buying marijuana from Keogh.
She was found with more than four pounds of marijuana, more than $3,000 and small amounts of crystal methamphenatine and cocaine, said Dan Dunbar, assistant district attorney.

Searchers find woman after Brush Creek flood
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Searchers looking for two people still missing after flash flooding in Brush Creek last weekend found a woman's body Saturday afternoon.
A police officer found the body, covered with debris, on the bank of the Blue River late in the afternoon, said Brad Humston, representative for the Kansas City Fire Department.
Brush Creek drains into the Blue River, and searchers had exhausted their search of the creek earlier in the day. Humston said.
The body had not been positively identified, but fire department officials notified the family of Edna McNeal of the discovery. Humston said.
Justin Clark, 18, and the 44-year-old McNeal had been missing since 7 inches of rain on Oct. 4 caused the flooding along the creek.
Three bodies were recovered Monday and two others on Thursday. The death toll from the storm would be 10 in the metropolitan area if the latest body is confirmed to be that of McNeal.
Near St. Joseph, authorities still were searching for Warren L. Akins, 56, whose car was pulled into a raging Buchan County creek.
Government widens focus of meat recall
WASHINGTON — The Agriculture
Department has extended a recall involving about 2 million pounds of meat and poultry used by prisons, hospitals and schools because new testing turned up continued salmonella contamination at a Georgia processing plant.
The recall of cooked patties of beef, pork and chicken took effect Sept. 28 for products shipped by Zartic Inc., of Cedartown, Ga.
The cooked patties went to institutional users and were not sold in stores, USDA representative Linda Swacina said Saturday. There have been no reports of illness caused by contaminated Zartic products, she said.
Tests on two samples from the same plant tested positive for salmonella Oct. 6, and the voluntary recall was extended to cover all products from the company's three production lines.
"The cause is still under investigation," she said.
The recall covers what was produced between Aug. 7 and Oct. 7 and shipped to 34 states.
Assassination attempt causes chaos in Lesotho
Zartic could not be reached for comment.
MASERU, Lesotho — A gunshot and an attempted bombing plunged a ruling-party rally into chaos yesterday, scattering thousands of government supporters and sending Lesotho's premier fleeing to safety.
Angry supporters of the ruling Lesotho Congress for Democracy reportedly beat one person to death and injured four others when they found them planting a bomb at the rally, the South African Press Association reported.
Police arrested the surviving suspects, police commissioner Bolutu Makoaha said.
An earlier gunshot injured a rally participant and sent Premier Pakalitha Mosisili fleeing.
The shot scattered about 5,000 party supporters, while some members rushed to protect Mosiili and his deputy, Kelibone Maope.
The LCD called the shooting attack an assassination attempt by opposition parties, which have sporadically blockaded the capital of Maseru since early August.
An opposition leader denied the allegation.
"This is absolute trash," said alliance representative Vincent Malebo. "We are not assassins."
Tensions in Lesotho, a small mountainous kingdom surrounded by South Africa, have been running high since the May elections, which opposition groups claim were rigged.
A shooting suspect was arrested and questioned, the South African Press Association reported.

Minority recruiting strengthens diversity
Continued from page 1A
The multicultural recruitment plan includes visits to high schools with large minority populations, college fairs, mentoring and campus visit programs such as Diversity Conference Visit Day: Colors of KU.
Page said that in recruiting students, admissions officers were careful to present a realistic portrait of the University.
"We want them to understand at the forefront that KU is predominantly white," he said.
Sherwood Thompson, director of minority affairs, said that although the University was doing a good job in attracting minority students, it had the ability to do more.
"We would like to be at 10 percent," he said.
"I think KU has so much to offer any student."
Page said that he was pleased with the increase but that he wasn't satisfied with the current minority count of 9.8 percent.
"I think that KU has the potential to enhance the excellent job they're doing by increasing their marketing efforts in minority communities in Kansas," he said.
Thompson said that to make KU attractive to potential minority students, the University had take three crucial steps: create an institutionally-based fund for minority scholarships, increase the diversity of the staff and faculty and visit minority communities.
He said that a diverse faculty was needed to provide minority students with an informal support group.
"Literature indicates that colleges doing well in attracting minority students have a critical mass of minority faculty and staff." Thompson said.
He said that by talking to people in the Asian, African American, Hispanic and Native American communities the University could better what minority students wanted from their college experience.
Thompson also said that the University had to look elsewhere, reaching out to students in big cities outside of Kansas.

Men and women vented frustrations and offered solutions to the perennial quandaries of dating Saturday in the Kansas Union.
At a presentation called "How Stella and Fella Got Their Groove Back," part of the Black Greek Leadership Conference, about 30 KU students and visitors from the Midwest tried to increase the common ground between men and women in relationships.
The presentation also focused on communication and miscommunication in relationships.
Lewis emphasized that women often struggle with interpreting male behavior. When a man is quiet or shrugs his shoulders, a woman may assume he's not listening, she said.
"These problems have been around for ages." said Adrian Franks, Manchester, Mo., senior. "Adam and Eve probably sat back there saying 'You never listen to me.' There's always a need for discussion like that. You don't have to come up with solutions, but we can get a better understanding."
"Communicate to understand and to be understood," she said. "Seek to find out what is going on before making assumptions. If we're not getting what we want, we can't just be passive about it."
Page said men and women often went wrong in discussions by over-scripting.
The search for understanding was led by Tammi Lewis, assistant director of minority affairs, and Robert N. Page Jr., assistant director of admissions.
Participants said the presentation was useful.
"Relationships are a big part of my life, and I've got to get it right," said Patricia Iga, Lawrence junior. "It was interesting to hear the males' perspective because females a lot of times generalize from our own experiences. To hear from others opens your mind."
The leadership conference was the first held at the University.
and the 11th since the program started at Central Missouri State University in 1987.
"We had excellent, dynamic speakers," said Lewis. "I think we all received a wealth of knowledge and wonderful messages to take back to our respective chapters."
The conference offered solutions to the obstacles faced by historically Black Greek organizations including hazing, academic success and re-establishing the organizations' founding principles.
"It is important so that we can learn ways to alleviate barriers and promote the success of our Black greek letter organizations." Lewis said.
About 85 people participated in the conference, which was open to non-greeks, Lewis said. The cost was $30 for KU students and $50 for others.

KU organizations make gays lesbians feel at home in Lawrence
October is Gay and Lesbian History Month, which means issues regarding sexual orientation will be in the spotlight. Sunday was National Coming Out Day, and the KU community was actively involved.
different gay and lesbian groups sponsored events during the weekend. Saturday morning, Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates held a yard sale. The proceeds will go to the And Justice For All Conference, which will be held Nov. 7 and 8 at the University
The conference will hold workshops, presentations and panel discussions about sexual orientation issues such as gay and lesbian curriculum and anti-harassment policies.
Today,'Come Out Talking will take place at the Kansas Union.
Picnics took place at the South Park Gazebo and Broken Arrow Park, sponsored by Queers and Allies and Ecumenical Reconciling Fellowship.
"Come Out Talking," a talk-show like performance, takes place today at the Kansas Union Plaza. The event is sponsored by KU Queers and Allies
The KU and Lawrence communities traditionally have been supportive of gay and lesbian issues. However, the incident in which burning of a gay pride rainbow flag on a
Lawrence resident's house are reminders that intolerance is still an issue.
No matter what moral stance individuals take on the issue of homosexuality, the community should create an environment where those with different lifestyles and beliefs are welcome and feel free to openly declare their sexuality.
KU organizations should be commended for active involvement in National Coming Out Day. The groups participation creates a positive environment for homosexuals and lesbians, who traditionally are in the minority to openly declare their sexuality unlike heterosexuals who have the privilege of being open with their sexuality every day.

Feedback
Kansan didn't cover Latino marathon read
I'm not a University Daily Kansan reporter, but since the Kansan decided to ignore completely the marathon reading of U.S. Latino/a literature that occurred in front of the Kansas Union all day Wednesday, I thought I would I offer my own brief coverage of the event.
Hispanic and non-Hispanic students, faculty and University staff read a variety of literature written by Mexican American, Cuban American, Puerto Rican and Dominican Republican authors.
While some participants read poetry, others read short fiction,
and Nicolas Shump, the event's organizer, even read some of his original work.
The event, now in its third year on campus, was originally meant to expose the campus community to a body of literature not usually taught in American, Spanish or Latin American literature courses. Certainly bicultural, and often bilingual, U.S. Latino/a literature rarely fits into the academic categories most departments create when they teach national literatures.
At least for a day, the marathon reading wanted to cross those academic boundaries. And it did. Students and faculty from English, Spanish, Latin American studies,
Of course, without Kansan news coverage of the event, the campus community is still underexposed to U.S. Latino/a literature. I'm sure the Kansan's minority affairs staff writer had too much on his/her beat to stop by the reading and ask a few questions — so many multicultural events on campus, so little time. I certainly hope I don't have to cover the rest of the events for Hispanic Heritage Month.

I dedicate this column to her.
The dead are not dead, we say in Africa. They live in our memories.
Today, you live in my memory because as a person, thinker, writer.
Dear Hélène,
translator and language teacher, you were a great inspiration to me. The lessons you're taught me are an integral part of my education at the University.
As a writer, whenever I think about writing or sit down to write, I will remember that you taught me to love language, cherish words and strive to communicate my perspectives on life with clarity, precision and grace.
I will remember that day I asked you to improve my writing skills, and you recommended I buy the book "Mieux écrit en français." But you did not leave things alone. As a teacher, you were an expert in follow-ups.
now should they make I understand now that life is a puzzle in which each one of us is a unique piece. The puzzle would not be complete without uniqueness. You motivated and encouraged me to be bold and contribute my humble gift.
Now that I think about it, I realize that compared to eternity, life in this body-temple is so short I cannot afford to spend it in constant war with others, hating even my enemies, overlooking those who need my help or neglecting my duties, no matter how small they might seem at the time.
Whenever we reflected on the human condition, you reminded me that sentences we write on the pages of life make a difference in the kind of collective story we tell as a global community. It can be a story of love or hate.
girl.
You were a wife, a mother and the joy of your family. I can only imagine the void your transition has left in the lives of Antonio, Fabio and Bruno. Only their hearts can fathom it.
Despite your busy schedule, you found time to read my column in The University Daily Kansan and gave your honest comments covering both form and content.
You always amazed me because you seemed to be able to read not only my columns, but also my mind. I remember in one column I quoted Shakti Gawain, a rarely quoted writer. But you were familiar with the work, and we discussed it.
What can a poor writer do to assuage their pain? I do not know. I write better than I speak. That is why I attempted to let them know that your life has touched me and brought healing and hope to my existence in ways that even my written words fail to express. May the same healing balm of human connection soothe their hearts.
You also taught me that silence was power. You were a quiet person, and many times you intrigued me.
An inscription on a mug that I have near my computer on my writing desk reads: "A teacher plants the seeds of knowledge, sprinkles them with love, and patiently nurtures their growth to produce tomorrow's dreams."
But now, as I think about you, I understand that life consists not of talking, but of living, achieving and helping others to live and achieve. You lived in silence and died in silence. Today, when I think about your life, I realize why wise people have concluded that actions speak louder than words.
Your death has taught me that life is too short to be small. You were young and full of energy and plans. You had plans for your
row's dreams.
What tomorrow's dreams will be for me, I do not know. But one thing I know: the seeds of knowledge you have planted in my soul have taken root, and, from the bottom of my heart, I want to say ikutondedel, natoni yo, danki, grazie, gracias, obrigado, merci and thank you.
fellow teachers and students — elementary school students, undergraduate students and graduate students. As a language specialist, you wanted them to appreciate the beauty, power and possibilities of human language in general — the French language in particular.
The dead are not dead; they live in our memories. As I close these thoughts, dear Hélene, may your memory live forever through these words you taught me to cherish and my columns you enjoyed reading.

Rigors of apartment life balanced out by luxuries
O K, you took an introductory course in psychology, learned all about personal space and realized that the two and a half feet you were getting in the dorms just wasn't healthy.
So, you got a job, begged mom and dad, sold a lot of plasma, whatever — you now have an apartment to call your own. Independence, a bedroom door and a freezer full of microwave dinners are all yours.
Congratulations.
P.
Congratulations.
Now, it's time to face reality. Like all relationships, things have changed. What was once a friendly alcove of personal expression now has become a security deposit gone forever.

Remember moving in? It was summer, everything was warm and the off-white walls seemed to beg for you to adorn them with posters from obscure movies and rock bands that nobody had heard of yet. But now, the winds have changed. The heater doesn't seem to be working, and the frigid air reeks of water damage from the lack of proper drainage system.
I know, the landlord wined and dined you during the courting period. He took you by the hand, made sure you met the sunbathers at the pool and showed you the nicest apartment in the whole complex, somehow gliding past the fact that nobody seemed to actually live there.
Unfortunately, the honeymoon has ended. Unreturned phone calls and empty promises are all that seem to come from the mystical building called "Office." Like a relationship that has soured, the landlord has chosen to ignore your pleadings in hopes that you'll take the hint and just go away.
Sometimes, you do get lucky, and somebody will come by to fix something. Usually, these repairmen have been thoroughly trained in the ways of fixing apartment mishaps.
You too can have this advanced training. Pay attention and take notes. Caulk fixes everything. That's it. That's all you need to know.
"Yes," he'll reply with a smile, applying the second coat.
My neighbors upstairs seem to have a healthy relationship. I just wish that when I'm trying to sleep, they wouldn't express how happy they are as often as the they do.
All of this, though, is mere triviality when compared to the miseries of communal living.
Because of the thin walls of many apartment complexes, you may find that you learn more about your neighbors than you probably should. For example, I'm not exactly sure what religion the people next door follow, I just know it has something to do with sacrificing small woodland creatures.
It's a private audience when I sing in the shower now. That's my couch with the 1970s-style brown-on-brown plaid print. That's my toaster with only one slot functioning. Those are my pet roaches.
Apparently, I've found, not everybody wants to wake up to screaming heavy metal in the morning. Personally, I need something I can jam to if I'm even going to get out of bed. However, retaliation for my habit came in the form of country twang vibrating through the floor. OK, OK. I give, guys. Uncle. You win.
"But it's a garbage disposal," you might say.
Luckily, you are not alone in this predicament. Your neighbors share in the pain, as long as you're not the cause of it. The bond between neighbors sometimes borders on open warfare, with only an unspoken peace treaty. You keep your music down, and I'll do likewise.
I can dance around the apartment as naked as I want to now. OK, so I've got to remember to close the blinds next time, but that's it.
Sure, the faucet drips and the stove doesn't really "heat" things so to speak, but stuff like that just makes life interesting. Multicolored stains on the carpet and holes in the wall all add character to a place.
And, yes, while I do have a roommate with whom I share the great experience of bachelor living, I have decided not to mention anything about him. After all, he does read the Kansan, and those are problems I don't need.

Edwards Campus plans expansion, seeks funds
By Jason Pearce Kansan staff writer
Expansion plans for the University of Kansas' Edwards Campus in Overland Park are in full force as officials seek contributions for a second building.
Robert Clark, dean of Edwards Campus, said that the University was planning a 55,000-square-foot building, which would cost $13 million. Funds for the proposed building would come primarily from outside contributions.
"We have not received any donations yet," he said. "Donors don't give to words, they give to something they can see."
Thus, the KU Endowment Association, which is heading up the search for contributions, will be helped when the University chooses a definite construction site and prints brochures — including an artist's rendering of the building — for potential contributors.
"We have a pretty detailed plan of what we want to include, but we need something a little more specific." Clark said.
According to the expansion's preliminary project statement, the building would include fifteen 40-seat classrooms, four 65-seat and two
90-seat tiered lecture rooms. These classrooms would be equipped with multi-media capabilities and digital information connections.
Also on the wish list for the building are 30 faculty offices, a conference room and a 240-seat auditorium.
University architect Warren Corman said that the University would hire an architectural firm to design the building, but not until enough contributions were made.
Corman said that he was studying the best location on the campus to build the building.
"We are trying to plan for expansion over the next 20 to 30 years and still accommodate the existing building," he said.
The main reason for the Edwards' expansion is the area's population-growth predictions and increasing enrollment. Clark said.
He said that a recent study of Overland Park's economic future concluded that an additional 100,000 jobs would be created by the year 2008.
"Contributors would not just be giving money for a new building, they would also help in the improvement of the economy." he said.
Enrollment at the campus, which is entirely for graduate studies, reached more than 1,800 students

this semester. In 1994, there were about 1,500 students enrolled.
"By 2008, we are expecting to double the size of campus," Clark said.
By that time, he said, special undergraduate classes—designed to enhance the knowledge of the Kansas City area's working force—would be available. Those classes would not compete with the Lawrence campus or Johnson County Community College.
Clark said that 60 percent of the Edwards Campus student body lived in the Kansas City area.
"Ninety percent of those students already have full-time jobs," he said. "And many have their tuition paid for by their employer."
NASA grant allows University to zoom in on radar technology
N
With the help of a $740,000 NASA research grant, an assistant professor is ready to launch a three-year study to develop a new Earth-observation radar at the University of Kansas.
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
"It keeps us at the forefront of technology and gives us access to state-of-the-art equipment," Allen said. "It's also good for students to be exposed to this research because they receive the most current training."
Christopher Allen, assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science, said the grant will enhance the well-respected reputation that the University has in the scientific community.
After the radar is perfected, Allen said it can be used by glaciologists
The radar is a scientific advance because it uses light frequencies rather than radio frequencies, Allen said. Additionally, the radar will be emitted in several directions at one time rather than in a thin line.
"...We intend to introduce technological innovations into the science and applications programs more frequently and reduce development time and risk, lowering the cost of future missions."
Associate Administrator for earth sciences at NASA
Allen, along with two graduate students and Sivaprasad Gogineni, professor of electrical engineering and computer science, hope to create an instrument that uses a light-frequency radar to measure the depth of the Earth's terrain. Allen said the primary application would be to collect data for ice sheet monitoring at the polar ice caps.
and other researchers to monitor global climate changes.
Allen applied for the grant under NASA's Instrument Incubator Program. Out of the 123 proposals NASA received for grants, 27 were selected.
The KU grant was one of eight given to universities. The remaining funds went to industry, NASA field centers and national laboratories.
The general aim of the Instrument Incubator Program is to develop new measurement technologies through ground-based laboratory activities.
"Through this program, we intend to introduce technological innovations into the science and applications programs more frequently and reduce development time and risk, lowering the cost of future missions," said Ghassem Asrar, associate administrator for earth sciences at NASA.
Allen said if his laboratory prototype was successful, he would travel to Greenland to field test the radar in a NASA aircraft.
She said Roberts spoke with NASA administrator Daniel Goldin when they were both at the KU campus in February. She said Roberts highly recommended the University as worthy of this grant.
Betsy Holahan, press secretary for U.S. Sen. Pat Roberts, R-Kan., said the University grant was very impressive.
"The University of Kansas should be commended for its reputation as a leading research institution," Roberts said.
Allen said he would attempt to marry the fiber optic research he had done with his radar research. He said he thought this would make maximum use of the technology available.
Allen came to the University in 1994 after working for a national laboratory and private industry. In those positions, he conducted classified government research.
Allen will travel to Pasadena, Calif., later this month to participate in a kickoff meeting for the NASA grant recipients.

Fine Arts dean to step down, return to full-time teaching

Thompson's help led to improvements for Fine Arts school
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
Peter Thompson, dean of the School of Fine Arts, will relinquish his position at the end of the academic year and return to full-time teaching in the art department.
"It's good for the school to get some fresh energy in the office," Thompson said.
Thompson came to the University of Kansas in 1965 as a drawing and painting instructor. He has served as dean since 1985.
Construction of the Lied Center for Performing Arts and Bales Recital Hall occurred during his tenure.
Thompson said that he discussed the need for a performance center with former chancellor Gene Budig when interviewing for the dean's position.
"Getting that facility was just wonderful for the University and people in Lawrence," Thompson said.
Bales Recital Hall is connected to the Lied Center and contains a pipe organ. It seats more than 200.
"It's one of the most stunning classrooms you'll ever see," Thompson said.
He designed the stained-glass windows in the recital hall. Some of his drawings and paintings can be seen in the Spencer Museum of Art and the Smithsonian Institute's National Museum of American Art.
Faculty members and administrators expressed their appreciation for Thompson's accomplishments.
"I am personally saddened that he is stepping down," said Steve Anderson, chairman of the music and dance department.
Anderson said that improvements in the school's curriculum and technology during Thompson's tenure were as important as the high-profile projects.
He praised Thompson's commitment to innovation and willingness to let ideas and projects develop.
"He has encouraged us to do what needs to be done." Anderson said.
Judy McCrea, chairwoman of the art department, said that Thompson had an unparalleled interest in and understanding of the arts.
Thompson also possesses a sense of balance and fairness in helping students, she said.
Provest David Shulenburger said Thompson had done a wonderful job.
Shulenburger is organizing the search committee for the new dean. He has written letters to faculty and staff asking for nominations for the committee. He said he planned to write student organizations, too.
"He's been an extremely innovative dean," Shulenburger said. "He's loved by the faculty in that school."

KC art museum unveils tornado, farm paintings
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
For the first time in 25 years, the work of one of Kansas 'most famous artists will be on display at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, Mo.
The museum will display 50 works by John Stewart Curry, including paintings, drawings, water colors and prints. Curry distinguished himself in the 1930s for his images of Midwestern rural life.
He also is known for the mural paintings in the Capitol Building in Topeka. The Curry Room in the Kansas Union is named after him.
The show is divided into thematic sections, beginning with "Curry and
Some of the art includes "Tornado," a depiction of a Kansas cyclone threatening a family farm, and "John Brown," an oil and tempera painting of the abolitionist standing in front of a tornado.
The exhibition first opened last spring at the Elvehjem Museum of Art at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. It then traveled to San Francisco's Fine Arts Museum this summer. The Nelson-Atkins showing will be the tour's last stop.
"It's a chance to look at an artist who painted Kansas," said Margaret Keough, public information associate for the museum. "It's nice to bring this artist's work back to where he painted."
The exhibition, "John Stewart Curry: Inventing the Middle West," started yesterday and will run through Jan. 3.
Kansas", an exploration of the cultural influences of Curry's childhood on his art.
"Curry and Life in Depression-era America" examines three themes of Curry's art: religion, man versus nature, and society's outcasts.
"Curry and History" brings together several of the artist's mural studies for the Justice Department building in Washington, D.C.
Other sections include "Curry and the Topea Murals," "Curry and the University of Wisconsin" and "Fulfillment and Disappointment, 1938-46."
There also is a series of events planned for the next three months, and a University of Kansas professor will participate in one.
Charles Eldredge, professor of American art and former director of the National Museum of American Art at the Smithsonian Institution, is scheduled to speak on Nov. 7 at the Atkins Auditorium.
Keough said that Eldredge was chosen because he was a great scholar of American art.

WACO, Texas — It's becoming repetitive.
For the fourth consecutive conference game, the University of Kansas football team entered the fourth quarter either tied with or ahead of their opponent and lost the game.
This time it was against Baylor in a 31-24 down-to-the-wire win for the Bears.
"I'm very, very proud of this football team because they hung in there and fought." Baylor coach Dave Roberts said.
That they did, in a game that dropped the Jayhawks' record to 2-4.
"We don't ever think that we're going to lose a game," punter Matt Tyler said. "You can't think that way if you want to win a game."
Despite the team's high hopes, Kansas failed again.
"I really don't know what to say," coach Terry Allen said. "I feel really bad for those kids. This was a tough one; I'm proud of this team."
Kansas continued to produce offensively. After a dreadful first quarter in which the Jayhawks gained three yards on 16 plays, the offense resurrected its game and gained 203 yards in the second quarter.
The 'Hawks finished the night with 447 yards on 75 plays. Baylor had 457 yards on 70 plays.
Wide receiver Termaine Fulton led the Jayhawks in pass receptions with four for 86 yards and one touchdown, a 27- varder in the third quarter.
Running back David Winbush clobbered the Bear defense for 94 yards on 15 carries. Mitch Bowles, who shares playing time with Winbush, gained 73 yards on 14 carries, including a one-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, and also added a 62-yard pass reception from quarterback Zac Wegner. Wegner completed 12 of 33 passes for 254 yards.
The defense showed up too, forcing four turnovers. Every starter in the Kansas secondary — cornerbacks Muhammad Abdul-Rahim and Quincy Roe, and safeties Michael Allen and Chad Coellner — intercepted a pass.
But it wasn't enough. Not this time, and that is a song all too familiar to the Jayhawks.
"When we were up 10 in the third quarter, I thought we had them," Bowles said. "They hadn't been able to score on us the whole game, so I though we had it. But we just had letdowns, letdowns, letdowns and letdowns."
Another thing that has become consistent for the Jayhawks is their costly turnovers, and Saturday night's game was no different.
In the closing minutes of the first quarter, Tyler fumbled the punt snap and Baylor defensive end Clifton Rubin recovered the ball and carried it 27 yards for
the Bears' first touchdown.
"It was kind of one of those snaps you can't decide whether to catch with your hands up or your hands down," Tyler said. "It just hit me right in the hands and it was my fault entirely, nobody else's."
And, just like last week against Texas A&M, Wegner threw a costly interception, only this time it wasn't on Kansas' first play of the game. It was on their last.
With Kansas on Baylor's 35-yard line after a 45-yard pass completion to wide receiver Harrison Hill, Wegner's pass, intended for freshman wide receiver Byron Gasaway, was intercepted by Baylor defensive back Nikia Cody with 21 seconds remaining in the game.
And now the Kansas Jayhawks have to figure out where to go from here.
said. "I'm proud of the football team, and I know how everybody's hurting. We have to stay a team and understand that good things someday are going to happen for this football team."
"This was a tough one," Terry Allen
The Jayhawks next travel to Lincoln, Neb., to play Nebraska. The Cornhuskers lost for the first time in 19 games Saturday, 28-21 to Texas A&M, a team to which the Jayhawks lost 24-21.

Hinrich's commitment finishes men's basketball recruiting
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas filled its final available scholarship late last Thursday night when it received a verbal commitment from Kirk Hinrich, a 6-foot-3 point guard from Sioux City, Iowa.
Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams and his staff can begin to concentrate fully on the season ahead now that recruiting is done.
Hinrich narrowed his choices to Kansas and Oklahoma after backing out of an oral commitment to Iowa State. He informed Williams and Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson late Thursday of his decision.
Kansas has filled its three available scholarships with a class that some consider one of the best in the nation.
Greg Swaim, recruiting analyst for Midwest Basketball, a recruiting information service, said that with Hinrich's commitment, Kansas' incoming class was one of the top five in the nation.
Gibbons ranks Collison as the second-best prospect in the nation and Gooden as the ninth.
Collison, a 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa City, Iowa, and Hinrich played together on an Iowa AAUteam and are good friends.
recruiting expert Bob Gibbons, joins fellow Iowan Nick Collison and Drew Gouen, a 6-foot 10 forward from El Cerrito, Calif.
Joining Hinrich, who is ranked No. 85 by
Hinrich committed to Iowa State following his sophomore year, when he led the Wolverines to second place in the Iowa state tournament, but reneged after head coach Tim Floyd's resigned to become the Chicago Bulls' head coach.
Hinrich, who plays for his father Jim at Sloux City (Iowa) West High School, averaged 18.1 points and a led West to a 20-2 record last season.
Kansas could have another scholarship available if junior Lester Earl is not cleared for another year of eligibility.
Commentary
Williams can not comment on the new recruits until they sign with Kansas in November.
Pizza, beer football rule lethargic Saturday
With my girlfriend out of town for the weekend and no class or job scheduled to milk my free time, I decided to heed the hidden message embedded in the word "Saturday." I literally "Sat-a-day" and watched college football for almost 13 fun-filled hours and spent some much-needed quality time with my couch.
It all began at 11 a.m., with my beloved
iowa Hawkeyes playing Northwestern, and ended with a UCLA-Arizona Pac-10 clash that finished well after midnight. In between, I ate too much pizza, drank too much beer and watched too much football.

Texas A&M's 28-21 upset of second-ranked Nebraska was easily the most stum-
ning and unexpected story of the day. The Aggies amassed 259 yards rushing and held the Big Red Machine to a measly 141 yards on the ground in ending the Cornhuskers' 19-game winning streak. Nebraska, which has won or shared three of the last four national championships, lost for only the fourth time in its last 69 games and might have seen its hopes of another national title slip away. The loss dropped Nebraska to No. 8 in the AP poll, its lowest ranking in five years, and might have caused a few Cornhusker fans to wonder whether this would have happened with Tom Osborne roaming the sidelines.
In the Big 12, fourth-ranked Kansas State survived a scare from then No. 14 Colorado and held on to win 16-9. The victory was the Wildcats 13th straight and, coupled with Nebraska's loss, Kansas State finds itself in the driver's seat to win the Big 12 and possibly the national championship.
While the Cornhuskers were tumbling Saturday, the other top teams in the country were cruising.
No. 1 Ohio State brushed away another average Big 10 team by blowing out Illinois 41-0 and appears to be headed for an undefeated season and a spot in the national title game.
The Aggies avenged the 54-14 shellacking they took at the hands of Nebraska in last year's Big 12 Championship and silenced the critics who said coach R.C. Slocum couldn't win a big game.
UCLA blasted previously unbeaten Arizona 52-28 in a battle of two top-10 teams and jumped to No. 2 in the polls, while third-ranked Tennessee took the bark out of the upstart Georgia Bulldogs, 22-3.
No. 5 Florida held off the always-overrated LSU Tigers 22-10. And in what used to be THE Game of the Year, No. 6 Florida State outshined the Miami Hurricanes 26-14 to keep their slim national title hopes alive.
Devin West continued to lead Missouri by scoring three touchdowns and rushing for 252 yards on 40 carries, helping push the Tigers past Iowa State. Texas Tech moved into the top 25 and remained undefeated for the season by narrowly edging out Oklahoma State 24-17.
And who can forget Texas running back Ricky Williams, who moved into third place on the NCAA's career rushing list after gaining 139 yards during the Longhorns 34-3 dismantling of Oklahoma. With 5,380 yards, Williams only trails former Heisman Trophy winners Tony Dorsett (6,082) and Charles White (5,598).
Although this Saturday provided me with plenty of rest and relaxation, next weekend doesn't look as promising. I'm traveling to Lincoln, Neb. to watch the Jayhawks do battle with one ticked-off Cornhuskers team. I'm just hoping to get out alive.

Cross country falls short Saturday

TALKING TO THEIR FRIENDS.
By Matthew Friedrichs
By Matthew Friedric Kansan sports editor
The Kansas cross country team is not a national power. The team is not even a contender.
In fact, running Saturday against nationally-ranked teams at Rim Rock Farm, the team's home course, the women placed last and the men placed 28th out of 32 teams.
Julius Mwangi, Butler senior,
won the men's 8,000-meter race in a
course-record 23:47.50. Amy
Skieresz, Arizona senior, won the
women's race in 17:00.49.
Stanford won the men's team competition with 80 points and the women's team competition with 65 points.
Five of the top 10 men's teams and four of the top 10 women's teams ran at the race in preparation for the NCAA Cross Country National Championships in November.
Top runners and coaches said they liked the course.
"It's great," said Skieresz. "I love it. It's very challenging, but it's good."
Skierzs took an early lead, which she never inlainished, in the 5,000 meters. Despite breaking the course record, she said that that she hadn't run her fastest and that she let up over the last 600 meters when no one challenged her lead.
Mwangi was challenged in the 10,000 meter race by Adam Goucher, Colorado senior. Mwangi led the race early, but Goucher passed him at the three-and-a-half-mile point.
Mwangi kicked with 600 meters to go and regained the lead.
"After I passed him, that was it." Mwangi said. "I couldn't let it go."
Sara Brinkley, Kansas freshman, finished the 5,000-meter race in 19:28.22, good for 139th.
Jayhawk runners weren't trying to beat the top-ranked competition, they were trying to improve.
"I ran my own race," Brinkley said. "I didn't even try to think about running with them."
Stanford coach Vin Lanana said his team was at the meetings to see the course in preparation for the NCAA championships.
"My interpretation of it is that the kids did a really good job, and the course looks like a very fair course." Lananna said.
Lananna, Arizona coach Dave Murray and Georgetown coach Frank Gagliano said the course had a good mix of hills and flat stretches, balancing between terrain that favors speed and terrain that favors power.
"It's a great course," Gagliano said. "It's a cross country course. This is what cross country is about."
Saturday was perfect for cross country. The ground remained
spongy but not muddy from recent rains. A light breeze blew from the south/southeast, the sun shone in a clear sky, and there was a slight chill.
The only questions the coaches still have about the championships is what the weather will be like in November.
Gagliano was one of many coaches who said the day was perfect.
Many top teams have seen the course. Their runners and coaches are developing their championshiprace strategy and they'll be back next month.

Kansas volleyball blocked out of wins
By Laura Bokonkroger Kansan sportswriter
Jayhawks lose in 3 to Texas, Texas A&M
The right-side hitter for the Kansas volleyball team, Nancy Bell, said that the Jayhawks' biggest matches were yet to come.
"We need to beat a team that no one thinks we can beat," Bell said. "We have Iowa State and Missouri coming up, and I think those are important matches because we can definitely beat them."
After falling three games to none against both No. 16 Texas A&M Friday (15-0, 15-6 and 15-13) and No. 13 Texas Saturday (15-4, 15-3 and 15-7) Bell said that the Jayhawks needed
a breakthrough victory next weekend.
Although the Jayhawks have lost the last five conference matches, Bell said there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
VOLLEYBALL
"We've been through our hardest stretch of the season, facing five nationally ranked teams in a row," Bell said. "We all
hard workers, so it's not a lack of effort. It's maybe a lack of focus. We just need to learn from the losses and move on."
Bell said the most important lesson they learned last weekend was to be more aggressive.
The Jayhawks started slow, and
Coach Ray Bechard said that the Jayhawks showed improvements in the next two games, including a nailing-two point loss in game three.
the first game against Texas A&M finished quickly as the Aggies raced to a 15-0 win.
"In game one we did not step up to the plate," Bechard said. "In games two and three we showed improvement. However, we can't be a part-time team against someone like Texas A&M."
The match against the Texas Long-
horns Saturday wasn't any easier.
Although the Jayhawks held three-time All-American Demetria Sance to seven kills, eight less than her season average of 15 kills a match, two other Longhorns picked up the slack. Erin Aldrich and Katie Austin each collected 11 kills, leading the Longhorns to their sixth consecutive Big 12 Conference victory.
Autnough the Jayhawks have emerged 1-5 against Big 12 opponents, Bell said that winning the matches next weekend meant more than just a better record.
"Those would be big wins," Bell said. "They would get us out of the rut we're in."
Bell said the wins would push them closer to realizing their goal of finishing in the middle of the Big 12.
"We just need to work on our execution," Bell said. "We make too many tentative mistakes, and we need to be making aggressive mistakes. When we go up we have to hit the crap out of the ball. Our mistakes are usually stupid mistakes because we're tentative."
The Jayhawks face the Iowa State Cyclones at 7:30 Friday night at Allen Field House.
Expos retain Felipe Alou as manager
The Associated Press
MONTREAL — Felipe Alou, who seemed close to joining the Los Angeles Dodgers, is staying with the Montreal Expos.
He signed a three-year contract that will make him one of the highest-paid managers, the Expos said yesterday.
General manager Jim Beattie and Mark Routtenberg, a member of the Expos' ownership group, with Alou Saturday at his home in Florida.
The Dodgers were reported to have offered the 63-year-old manager a three-year contract worth between $3.5 million and $4 million.
Davey Johnson and Kevin Kennedy reportedly are the leading candidates to manage the Dodgers.
Alou, who has managed the Expos since 1992 and has spent 24 years in the organization, was ready to leave at the end of the season because he believed he was no longer wanted.
Dodgers general manager Kevin Malone spent three days in the Dominican Republic with Alou before returning Friday to Los Angeles.
"We expressed our interest in having him as manager and what we have to offer," Malone said. "A financial package was discussed and is available if he wants to come here."
The Dodgers said last week that interim manager Glenn Hoffman would be assigned to the coaching staff next year.
Alou became Montreal's winningest manager on Aug. 19 when he collected win No. 521, surpassing Buck Rodgers.
Alou has the fifth-longest tenure with the same club in the majors behind Minnesota's Tom Kelly (12 years), Atlanta's Bobby Cox (eight). Cleveland's Mike Hargrove (seven) and Milwaukee's Phil Garner (seven).
Kansas soccer loses one, ties one
The Jayhawks were stunned 3-0 by the University of Oklahoma yesterday after fighting Oklahoma State University to a 1-1 draw Friday.
NORMAN, Okla. — It was a weekend of upsets in the Big 12 Conference, and the Kansas soccer team was on the losing end of one of those upsets.
It was the Sooners' first Big 12 win.
"Given the team we have, we don't expect to win many games," said Bettina Fletcher. Oklahoma coach. "I know our team is capable of scoring goals, but we didn't expect to score three on a tough Kansas
defense."
Bv Brad Hallier
The Jayhawks had six shots in the first half, none on goal.
Kansas coach Dan Magner said that he changed tactics in the second half, telling defender Sarah Korpi to attack more.
Kansan sportswriter
"We did create a few chances," Magner said. "We took risks, and it certainly opened up opportunities for them."
The best Jayhawk chances came on a cross-shot by midfielder Cynthia Dahle that hit the left post and a diving header by midfielder Dani DeGuerre that barely went over the crossbar.
"I would have been happier if it had gone in, but I just wanted to get my head to it," DeGuerre said.
Oklahoma added a goal in the 65th minute and another in the 80th minute.
Today the Jayhawks play Texas Tech in Norman.
The match could be do-or-die for the Jayhawks in their quest to qualify for the Big 12 tournament. The Jayhawks are in the middle of the pack with a 1-2-1 conference record, and a loss would hurt the team's chances of qualifying for the tournament.
"We can choose to do one of two things," Magner said. "We can choose to let this loss destroy us, or we can choose to let it go and move on."
Jayhawk qualifies for tennis competition
Kansas sophomore Micah Zomer won two matches on Saturday and advanced to the quarterfinals of the prequalifying draw at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) All-American Championships. Zomer is three wins from advancing to the qualifying event this week. He was scheduled to play Pablo Belagama of Clemson yesterday, but the results were not available.
Zomer now has a team-best record of 7-2 and leads the Jayhawks in total wins.
In the first round of prequalifying, Zomer cruised to a 6-4, 6-2 victory against Ted Misteia of East Central. In his second match of the day, Zomer earned a 6-1, 3-6, 6-1 victory against Nickl Brochu of Georgia State.
Several other Jayhawks were also in prequalifying action on Saturday,
SPORTS BRIEFS
including freshman Alex Barragan.
Barragan lost in the first round to
Aliastair Garland of Pepperdine 6-3,
7-5.
Two Kansas players, Ed Dus and 1998 All-American Luis Uribe, automatically made the qualifying rounds that are slated to begin Tuesday.
Three members of the University of Kansas women's tennis team advanced to their singles-flight finals Saturday at the Ohio State Invitational. Kris Sell, Cherry Hill, N.J., senior; Cheryl Mallaiah, Longwood, Fla. freshman; and Julia Sidorova, Latvia sophomore, were all scheduled to play for the titles yesterday.
Women tennis players advance to finals
Sell defeated Jennifer Hall of Notre Dame 6-1, 6-4 in the semifinals for her six win in a row and
boosted her record this fall to 7-3. She will play Becky Varmum of Notre Dame in the Flight No. 1 finals yesterday. This is Sell's second consecutive finals appearance, the first coming at the Indiana Invitational.
Mallaiia advanced to the Flight No. 2 finals by defeating Georgia Tech's Sybil Parker 6-4, 6-2 in the semifinals and Karen Ridley of Pennsylvania 6-2, 7-5 in the quarterfinals. Mallaiia, who has a record of 6-4 on the season, will face Kelly Zalinski of Notre Dame in the finals.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)
Controversy
Hate crimes talk of service
Queers and Allies honor gay student, victim of violence
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Sadness, shock and anger overtook the light-hearted celebration that gay students at the University of Kansas had planned for a national gay rights day.
A 30-minute memorial service was held for Matthew Shepard, a homosexual University of Wyoming student who died yesterday after being beaten. The service replaced a parody of homosexual stereotypes on Jerry Springer's talk show that was planned for noon yesterday
Nearly 50 KU students and staff members gathered outside the Kansas Union yesterday at noon to pray for Shepard and remind the public that any kind of hate crime is morally wrong.
The event took place as part of a KU student organization. Queens & Allies' celebration of National Coming Out Day, which was celebrated Sunday.
Two of the members shared with the public the hate crimes that they had faced and asked the audience to support stronger hate crime legislations in the country.
tor of Queer & Allies.
"All you people out there who hear and
In an emotional voice, and cheered on by the audience, Rowland gave three examples of homophobia he had faced that could have put his life in danger.
"Once, somebody set fire to my house," he said. "Four years ago on Christmas, somebody threw a stone on my face, I filled charges and won."
Another time, he said, he was pulled out of the car at gunpoint.
Katie Shay, Leawood sophomore and director of the group, who goes by the name Jack and plans to legally change her name soon, said it was wrong to think Lawrence was safe for gays.
Shay said that on Oct. 3 someone pulled up beside her at a stoplight, said a homosexual slur, and threatened to rape and kill her.
Some members of the audience sympatized with the concerns of the memorial service but held homosexuality to be wrong.
Shay was unharmed.
"I'm not going to protest against homosexuals, but I'm not going to support them either," said Jared Martin. Fort Scott junior.
Rowland said Shepard's assaulters were being booked for
"All you people out there who hear and not prevent those who degrade women, blacks and gays are permitting people to conduct crimes that are violent..."

Federal law describes hate crimes as those perpetrated on the basis of race, religion, national origin and color.
The two speakers asked the public to lend its support for The Hate Crime Prevention Act of 1988, which is considered by Congress.
Sexuality one factor in death of student
The Associated Press
FORT COLLINS, Colo. — A gay University of Wyoming student digged yesterday, five days after he was found pistol-whipped and lashed to a fence post in an attack denounced nationwide as a hate crime.
Matthew Shepard, 21, died while on life support, said the head of Poudre Valley Hospital, Rulon Stacey. Shepard had been in a coma since bicyclists found him tethered to the post in near-freezing temperatures outside Laramie, Wyo., on Wednesday.
Police have said robbery was the primary motive for the attack. But gay rights groups and others assailed the beating and called on Wyoming legislators to adopt laws to deter crimes against homosexuals.
McKinney's girlfriend, Price and his father, Bill McKinney, told The Denver Post that the two men did not mean to kill Shepard. Instead, they said the two wanted to get back at Shepard for making passes at McKinney.
Before Shepard's death, Russell Arthur Henderson, 21, and Aaron James McKinney, 22, had been charged with attempted murder, kidnapping and aggravated robbery. Their girlfriends — Chasity Vera Pasley, 20, and Kristen Leann Price, 18 — were charged with being accessories after the fact.
Sgt. Rob DeBree of the Albany County sheriff's office, a lead investigator in the case, confirmed today the charges would be upgraded to first-degree murder. He gave no details.
Worm could creep through campus Macs
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
A computer worm that has infected the University of Kansas' School of Journalism computers could spread to computers campuswide.
A worm is a slower-moving type of virus that usually is self-replicating, said Justin Knupp, systems specialist for the University Daily Kansan.
According to information from the Symantec AntiVirus Research Center, the worm replicates itself from computer to computer as a self-contained, standalone file. It may cause performance problems and corruption to files.
The Kansan received a worm, called AutoStart 9005, from a zip disk that had been used in a Macintosh PowerPC-based computer at the Lawrence Journal-World last week.
Since then, the Academic Computer Center has received four or five calls from students who reported problems with their disks after using computers infected with the worm, said Jan Grzymala-Busse, programmer/consultant for the center.
Knupp said the easiest way for the worm to be transferred would be through zip disks, although any kind of disk or disk drive that is formatted for use by a Macintosh computer could be infected by the worm.
Knupp said the worm acted as a hidden file and could not be seen on a disk. The worm can be transferred onto a computer through a program called QuickTime. When a person puts an infected disk into a computer, QuickTime may automatically open up the disk if the AutoStart file tells it to.
THE WORM
A worm has infected the Macintosh PC-powered computers in the School of Journalism. The worm, called AutoStart 9805, can only infect Macintosh computers
A worm is a slower-moving type of virus that is usually self-replicating.
■ The easiest way for the worm to be transferred would be through zip drives, although any kind of disk or disk drive that is for matted for use by a Macintosh computer can by infected by the worm.
Students may run software called Wormscanner to detect the virus on their computer and kill it. The free soft ware may be downloaded at http://members.ad.
The Macintosh PowerPC-based computers across campus all have the QuickTime program.
Students may protect their computers from the worm by opening up the QuickTime program and clicking on the settings option. By choosing AutoPlay, two boxes will appear. Do not check either of the boxes. This way the AutoStart file will not automatically open up an inserted disk and transfer any possible viruses that may exist on the disk, Knupp said.
The University has been taking care of the problem by running software entitled Wormscanner that detects the virus and kills it.

Columbus Day talks show holiday's flaws
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
While federal workers took a break yesterday to celebrate Christopher Columbus' landing on American shores, First Nations Student Association and Multicultural Student Coalition celebrated the survival of this continent's original inhabitants.
A small crowd of more than 50 students applauded the speakers throughout the hour-long rally in front of Wescoe Hall.
"All across the Western Hemisphere people are celebrating indigenous people's day or a day of survival," said Raven Heavy Runner, association president and Browning, Mont. senior.
The atmosphere was positive with the focus more on celebrating indigenous cultures and promoting multiculturalism rather than attacking Columbus.
Although the rally was peaceful, speakers did not shy away from presenting the harsh facts of colonization.
Ray Pierotti, associate professor of environmental studies, said that 200 years after Columbus arrived, 90 percent of the indigenous population of North America was dead, mostly because of introduced diseases.
Heavy Runner said different cultura groups needed to work together and learn from each other's experiences.
Martina Masaquiza, lecturer in Latin American Studies, said the issue also was important to the indigenous peoples of South America. She said her people were still struggling to survive ongoing colonization.
"I think a lot of people don't realize it's not so much what Columbus did, but what he came to represent," Pierotti said. "What we're doing today is celebrating the fact that we're still here." Conway Ekpo, vice president of Black Student Union and Lawrence senior, said rally participants wanted to challenge people's viewpoints.
Ekpo said she learned there were people already here when Columbus arrived. "Simply put: Columbus finding America is about as accurate as we walking up to your house, where you've lived for years, and saying I discovered you."
The arrival of Columbus is not a happy day for us," she said. "How can we be happy about Columbus coming here, robbing our land?" she said.
Former KU student Lidia Faverman was visiting campus yesterday and said she was happily surprised to see students speaking out against Columbus Day.
"I think it's important to speak about the real history of people," she said. "History can be taught from the streets and from the mouths of people who lived it."
Pierotti said problems in understanding arise because of a lack of respect. He said he would have liked to see more students at the rally.
"I don't understand the students' apathy on many issues," he said.
Seven counterfeit bills used to defraud three businesses
Police suspect crimes could be connected
Seven counterfeit $1 bills were used to make purchases at three Massachusetts Street businesses during the weekend, and Lawrence police said the crimes probably were connected.
By Keith Burner
"They've got to be, they're all the same," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Kansan staff writer
The bills all were passed between 10 p.m.
Friday and 11:59 p.m. Saturday. Police
have no suspects.
Three of the bills were found Saturday morning at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., by manager Patrick McDonald when he was counting the money collected Friday night.
"We got nailed about two weeks ago," McDonnell said.
"We run a whole lot of volume, and it was dark," McDonald said. "We can't really expect everyone to inspect every bill."
The employee found the second bill soon after.
That time, the club lost $300 when employees found 15 counterfeit $2 bills.
Two more counterfeit $10 bills were discovered Saturday night at Milton's Coffee
This was not the first time the club has been targeted by counterfeiters.
& Wine, a coffee shop at 920 Massachusetts St., when an employee accidentally spilled water on one of the bills, causing the ink to smear, police said.
The two other counterfeit bills were discovered at Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St., between 10 p.m. Friday and 2 a.m. Saturday, police said.
Coco Loco could not be reached for comment.
Wheeler said it was possible to recognize counterfeit money if people took the time to inspect each bill.
"People should feel it, snap it and look closely at the paper." Wheeler said.
He said valid U.S. currency had a texture of tiny green thread that is very easy to tell apart from green ink smudged on paper, no matter how accurate the design of the counterfeit bill.
"If nothing else, just lick your fingers and see if the ink smears." he said.
Police said that if the counterfeiters were not caught, the businesses would have to absorb the loss.
McDonald said he already was taking precautions to avoid future scams.
"The bank did give us some pens to check the money with," he said.
McDonald said the ink in the pens turns gold when used on a valid bill but black when used on anything else.

Undergraduates interested in attending law school are encouraged to visit the PreLaw Fair today at the Kansas Union.
From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., more than 20 different law schools, primarily from the Midwest, will be in the Kansas University Ballroom to talk to potential students about admissions, financial aid and law school expectations. Applications also will be available from law schools from the East and West Coast. Kaplan and Princeton testing services will be on hand to answer questions about LAST testing.
There will be two information forums during the day. At 10 a.m. in the Jayhawk Room, there will be a session about financial aid and payors for law school. At 1 p.m. in the parlors there will be a presentation about law school admissions, including grade requirements and LSAT scores.
Karen Isley, Toledo, Ohio, senior and president of Phil Alpha Delta Pre-Law society, said the society was sponsoring the event and it expected from 300 to 400 people to participate in the Pre-Law Fair.
"It is for everyone," she said. "But it is catered to undergraduates."

Jenny Pittsford, Houston sophomore, said she was going to attend the fair to get information about law schools. She has not made a final decision about going to law school but hoped the Pre-Law Fair would help her make a decision
K-State draws more blood than University's drive
— Aerica Veazoy
Kansas State University beat the University of Kansas in their semi-annual blood drive competition last week.
Although more than 750 people donated blood at the University, K-State had more than 1,000 donors.
The American Red Cross, which offered the blood drive at the Kansas
1,011 units, said Chris Berry, co-coordinator of the blood drive.
Union and other KU sites, collected 663 units of usable blood, an increase of more than 120 units. K-State won the competition with
"We're disappointed that we lost, but we went up in total units so we we're still excited," Berry said. "Hopefully, we'll continue to increase."
KU won the competition last spring. Berry said he thought the blood drive — which was sponsored by the Panhellenic Association, Interfraternity Council, residence halls and scholarship
halls — could have done better.
He said the blood drive lost some donors because of a different blood drive held from Sept. 21 to Sept. 24 at Allen Field House.
— Sarah Hale
The next blood drive will be the first week of March 1999.
Police find alleged crack on naked man's clothing
A naked Lawrence man was arrested yesterday morning after police found a substance believed to be crack cocaine in his discarded clothing.
The incident began at about 3:30 a.m. when a Lawrence police officer noticed two people in a blue Mercury driving down an alley in the 1300 block of Pennsylvania Street.
The officer was suspicious because of the time and location, so he pulled the car over at the end of the alley in the 1:300 block of Connecticut Street.
"Upon pulling the two suspects over, the officer asked if anyone had any crack on them," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Immediately after hearing this, the 25 year-old passenger, jumped out of the car. ripped his clothes off and told the officer to search him. Wheeler said.
"The man began pulling his clothes off in an angry manner, whereupon the policeman advised him to put back on his pants," Wheeler said.
When the officer searched the naked man's clothing, he found a substance believed to be crack cocaine and a pipe police believe to be a crack pipe.
The man was placed into the Douglas County Jail at 3:55 a.m. on charges of possession of cocaine and possession of drug paraphernalia.

Student attempts to stab teacher during time out
A 9-year-old Lawrence grade-school student was removed from school last Thursday after he attempted to stab a teacher who had put him in time out.
The youth, a third-grader at Broken Arrow Elementary, 2704 Louisiana St., had been placed in time out at about 8:15 a.m. as discipline for being disruptive in class, Lawrence police said.
"He jumped on a desk and removed a pair of scissors," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler. "When she reached toward him, he swung at her."

NATO strikes diverted; United Nations waits
WORLD
WASHINGTON - Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic, bowing to NATO military threats, has agreed to comply with U.N. demands to end his seven-month repression of Kosovo Albanians, Clinton administration officials said last night.
The officials said Milosevic agreed to the deployment of 2,000 monitors to ensure that he abides by his promises.
As an added incentive, NATO envoys meeting in Brussels gave the green light for air strikes against Serb forces stationed in Kosovo if Milosevic fails to comply, the officials said.
A U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Milosevic agreed to aerial monitoring of Yugoslav compliance in addition to ground monitors.
He made clear that mistrust of Miosevic was a critical factor behind the U.S. insistence on thorough monitoring of the agreement.
There had been repeated warnings by U.S. officials that NATO military strikes were planned if Milosevic refused to go along with the U.N. demands, which were spelled out on Sept. 23.
The agreement was hammered out by U.S. envoy Richard Holbrooke during a week of marathon negotiations that often seemed on the verge of collapse.
The Security Council demands include withdrawal of more Serb troops from Kosovo, allowing humanitarian aid to refugees and opening up talks with the secessionists.
The Phi Alpha Delta Pre Law Society will have a pre-law fair from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. today at the ballroom in the Kansas Union. There will be more than 20 law schools from across the country there. Call Karen Isley at 838-3081 for more information.

Computer virus shuts down labs in Stauffer-Flint
Continued from page 1A
Students with infected computers may download the free Wormscanner software at http://members.ad.com/jwwalker/pages/worm.html
The infected disk was used in a computer at the Kansan newsroom, and the worm was transferred onto the newsroom computers, Knupp said. He said he thought the virus was then transferred by a student in the newsroom to one of the computers in the journalism laboratories.
Wednesday night, the computer labs in the journalism school were closed because the worm had spread to the computer system. This meant that students who had saved their work in public journalism files could not open them.
Cade Cruickshank, chief broadcast engineer and network administrator for the School of Journalism, said that the worm was detected on the Advanced Magazine and Design and Business Communications class files.
"The worm caused us to shut down the labs so that we could run software on the machines to find out where it was," Cruickshank said. "By using Wormscanner, we were able to check and see if it existed so that we could delete it."
Dan Thompson, Kansas City, Kan., senior, said his disk was ruined when he used it on one of the laboratory computers.
I put my disk into the computer and it started making noise," Thompson said. "I wasn't sure what the problem was, so I just had to take the disk out of the computer, because it wasn't bringing up the information I needed."

'Hawks have new places to roost
Writing centers open for students
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
After months of training and preparation, the writers have finally found their roosts.
The writer's roosts, or writing help rooms run by Writing Consulting: Student Resources, opened yesterday morning.
The writer's roosts are locations for students to seek help with general writing skills and on writing assignments from peer tutors.
Jason Capps, Kansas City, Mo. graduate student, was the first tutor in the Strong Hall location.
Although he spent most of his time sitting alone with a book and toolbox full of handbooks and other writing-aid materials, he said he was not discouraged by the lack of students wanting tutors.
"I think it will take a few weeks to get people in here," Caps said. "The best method will be hearsay. I think students will filter in and have a good experience and then tell their friends about it."
Michele Eodice, assistant director of Writing Consulting: Faculty Resources, came from State University of New York at Buffalo to pick tutors and guide them through

the process of starting the University of Kansas' first writing center.
When she arrived, she said she searched the campus for a catchy name to draw people to the center, and decided to spin-off of the University mascot.
"When I first got here in July, I took the time to get the feel for the campus." Eodice said. "I found that everyone loves the Jayhawk, and I wanted to extend the image of the Jayhawk, but the 'Hawks Nest' was taken."
The name "Writers' Roost" became the acceptable compromise, drawing on the image of a nest as a safe place and the tutors as the guides.
Eodice said she was excited to get the program going because a place for writing consultation has been absent from the University. The University is the last school in the Big 12
to add a writing center for students.
Eodice was the answer to that problem. In three months, she helped complete the switch from a faculty-oriented to a student-oriented writing resource center.
Pat McQueeney, director of Writing Consulting: Faculty Resources, said the writing consulting office had previously been faculty oriented, with the intention that individual instructors could help their own students.
McQueeney said the faculty resource aspect of the center was not going to disappear and that faculty supported the writers' roosts as
another option for students to find help.
"The faculty was concerned with the fact that students need different support than what they could give and that it wasn't there," she said.
McQueney estimated that only 5 to 10 percent of students used writing help services before and that the new tutoring sites would enhance the old methods and increase student usage.
"We are pleased with the preexisting services, and we want to work with them, not overtake them," she said. "All of the services are filling an important need."

Museum wants skeletons out of its closet
No room for dinosaur bones may leave exhibition extinct
Kansan staff writer
By Julio M. Sachs
Kansas staff writer
After almost 100 years, the Natural History Museum is back in the dinosaur business — at least for now.
the discovery and excavation of three camerosaur skeletons in the Black Hills of Wyoming add another exhibit for the museum, but it also poses a problem: The museum does not have room to exhibit the skeletons.
Kemp said the bones would be cast and then sold to other institutions.
The third and most recent camerosaur skeleton measures about 60 feet long and 14 feet high to the shoulder and is scheduled to arrive at the museum today, said Brad Kemp, assistant director of public affairs at the museum.
He said that because of the museum's space constraints, the mold might be exhibited in other locations first.
"We have to construct something for these dinosaurs," said Larry Martin, senior curator at the museum.
The solution is a dinosaur hall.
"We really need someone to say, 'wow, I really like the idea of a dinosaur hall, can I fund it.'" Martin said.
Unless funding emerges for such a project, the University's brief interlude with excavating dinosaurs may be halted.
"There's not too much point in collecting dinosaurs unless you can put them somewhere," Kemp said. "So unless someone is particularly interested in investing in dinosaurs, I don't think we'll be collecting anymore."
The camerosar bones are not the only prehistoric remnants that would benefit from a
dinosaur hall.
Other items in the museum's collection such as a duckbill dinosaur, part of an allosaurus, part of a petasaurus and a triceratops skull also could be included in a dinosaur hall exhibit. Kemp said.
Although the museum does not have the means to exhibit all of its dinosaurs, a small exhibit is planned for the arrival of the camerasaur bones, Martin said.
"We are preparing the front leg and the hind leg of the new one," he said. "As soon as those are prepared, we will exhibit it."
The camerosaur bone exhibit should appear at the museum around Christmas, Martin said.
Kemp said the past excavation would look good for the University.
"I think this project has great potential for the University of Kansas," he said. "I really think that KU museums contribute to the quality of life at KU."

Traffic appeal must be denied; impact report should be finished
Last month, the 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals heard a landmark lawsuit. And unless the outcome affirms the U.S. District Court ruling, students could witness an increase in obscenities directed against their spiritual, moral and ecological environment.
The case involves the delayed construction of a highway officially known as the South Lawrence Trafficway.
Plaintiffs, who include Lawrence citizens and students of the University of Kansas and Haskell Indian Nations University, have successfully delayed its construction. They are committed to environmental and cultural justice.
Even though one section of the highway now stretches from I-70 through West Sixth Street, Clinton Parkway and South Iowa Street, in 1997 U.S. District Court Judge Thomas Van Bebber halted the construction of a section connecting South Iowa Street with K-10 and dividing the Baker Wetlands and Haskell along already crowded 31st Street.
Until the Kansas Department of Transportation, Douglas County and the Federal Highway Administration, all responsible for the construction of the highway, release vital information concerning its impacts on the historically significant
The 10th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals should uphold the previous ruling.
area, Van Bebber ruled that the remainder of the project must not be carried out.
Although KDOT, Douglas County and the Federal Highway Administration appealed the decision so they could finish the project cost effectively, Van Bebber's ruling should be upheld.
The engineers and planners have failed to express the full environmental costs.
Just as KU students probably would object if a project proposed the demolition of Allen Field House, the plaintiffs object to this proposed trafficway because it would desecrate a sacred land.
The plaintiffs say the finished trafficway would obstruct wetlands research conducted by KU, Haskell and Baker University students, and it would interfere with religious services held on Haskell property.
They call for more attention to be given to the effects the constructed trafficway would have on the cultural sacredness of the area through which it is to be built.
The trafficway is supposed to alleviate traffic congestion on 23rd Street, which some students think is burdensome, by providing through traffic with a direct, signal-free link from I-70 to K-10.
Van贝berb's ruling required that highway authorities spell out environmental and cultural costs in the form of a supplemental environmental impact statement, mandated by the 1969 National Environmental Policy Act.
However, the appeal maintains that according a federal transportation act passed this summer, NEPA mandates do not apply to this portion of the trafficway because no federal money is being used to construct it.
Apparently, governmental agencies take responsibility for only monitoring investments instead of also guarding against an environmental catastrophe.
If highway authorities do not have to comply with a democratic policy that protects the people and environment from the adverse impacts of highway construction, what then is the policy for?
Ultimately, Van贝berb's decision should be upheld and the supplemental evaluation released openly. Then it can be decided whether the proposed last leg of the trafficway is appropriate.

Feedback Gay student's death sparks outrage, call for support
I try to rarely use the word "evil" in describing either people or events, so that the word carries added strength. What was done to Matthew Shepard in Laramie, Wyo., was purely and simply an evil act perpetrated by evil men. While one suspect's father not surprisingly defended his son as the victim of an unwanted pass by a guy, and not deserving of the infamy he now finds himself at the center of, the fact is that Shepard was
I have been to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum several times and continue to be struck by the terrible evil that took place with almost an entire nation's consent — and the complacency of many other — only 60 years ago. That was evil on a national scale; this is evil by individuals. Nothing can change what has happened in either case. But what can be different is us. We can and should say — even shout — "Never again. Not here, not anywhere. Not to me, not to anybody."
tortured by his assailants, and spent four days on life support before he finally died.
Kansan staff
We need the support of all the allies we can get. We need leaders of the rest of the community to take a stand against bigotry, regardless of its origin. Most importantly, we need our families, our friends and our co-workers to express support, both personally and publicly. We're all in this together. Lincoln was right about a house divided against itself.
Gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and transsexual people demand justice, respect for our lives, and an end to the hatred that threatens us daily. But we can't win this battle against hatred alone.

Pretty soon there aren't going to be IBMs and Macintoshes, they will be IBM Americans and Macintosh Americans, especially after they start running things. We'd better get used to this now so we don't foul up and offend them after they control the Earth.

■ On the fraternity anti-alcohol front: Jennifer Kinney, assistant director for Greek programs, risk management and education, on fraternities phasing out alcohol in chapter houses: "We hear people say that we're just pushing the problem to the community. This will decrease insurance, provide for a safer environment and make the house nicer."
I pity the person who believes taking away alcohol at fraternity house parties will do anything but make people drive around liquored-up to find parties. This is also an issue with closing bars at midnight. It just begs drunks to parade around town looking for an angry fix. I hope that society doesn't believe decreased insurance premiums equal safer parties. Why not encourage parties close to campus and discourage night-time driving? Expand the night-time bus system. Expand Safe Ride. Advertise each to the student body.
Chancellor Hemenway on student alcohol use: "We don't want anybody to be physically harmed or mentally harmed. There's a lot of evidence that people's academic career has been jeopardized by the use of alcohol ... We know that most of the issues of violence and date rape increase with the use of alcohol."
On The Hawk closing time midnight debate: city commissioner Bonnie Augustine, "If these bars close at midnight, those patrons are going to go someplace else."
It was nice to see the Chancellor's thoughts. We've all heard the stories, and it is too bad something serious must happen for us to change our ways. Important speech on a public issue — that's what a newspaper is designed to do. Good reporting, Kansan.

Eastern Europe trip teaches dean
By Carolyn Mollott
Kansan staff writer
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, learned to expect the unexpected while on a 16-day trip to Eastern Europe.
"I think it was a typical trip to that part of the world," said Brad Schaffner, head of KU Libraries' Slavic Department, who accompanied Frost Mason and Kenneth Mason, assistant professor of molecular bioscience, on the trip.
Frost Mason said a 14-hour train delay, nationwide protests and difficulty exchanging money in Russia were memorable portions of her trip but did not prevent her from accomplishing her goals.
Frost Mason, who is teaching Biology 100 this fall, attended a biology conference in Prague, in the Czech Republic, and then visited KU partner institutions in Ukraine and Russia. At the universities, she met with administrators, students and KU students abroad.
"You work for years to create
and Eastern European Studies, who helped plan much of the dean's trip, said she already had received letters from two universities who praised Frost Mason for visiting.

"You work for good relationships with institutions," Carlson said.
The University of Kansas was recognized when Mason won a silver medal at the biology conference for his research presentation. The conference was an occasion of

Frost Mason said her most memorable experience was when she spoke with economics students in Lviv, Ukraine. She told them about the University, and students had the opportunity to ask questions.
Frost Mason said the main question from the students, who had never known economic prosperity, was when the Ukrainian economy would improve.
"It was hard to try to lift their spirits," she said.
Frost Mason also visited Kiev, Ukraine, before traveling to Russia for appointments in Moscow and St. Petersburg.
The trip from Kiev to Moscow was supposed to be about 12 hours but took about 26 hours. The train came to a complete stop just inside the Russian border for about six hours, and neither train nor station officials could explain the delay. Frost Mason said.
While Frost Mason was in St. Petersburg, the Communist Party organized a nation-wide protest of the country's economic woes.
Schaffner said the demonstrations were supervised by the government, so they were safe and organized.
"It was quite impressive to see literally thousands of people marching." Frost Mason said.
Students venture into business

A group of student entrepreneurs wants to buy 30 laptop computers for the School of Business. But the organization is not just being generous — members want to use the computers to make money.
Students in Free Enterprise will let the School of Business have the laptops part of the time and will use them to earn money by conducting interactive seminars for entrepreneurs in the community, organizers said.
But while having laptops in class
Recent technology upgrades in the School of Business allow a laptop at every seat in some rooms.
"We want laptops in the classroom, available to everybody," said Jeff Morrow, instructor of entrepreneurship and Students in Free Enterprise adviser.
rooms is a benefit to the school, Morrow said the group's focus on entrepreneurship made earning a profit important.
"It's OK to earn money," Morrow said.
The group is entirely funded by its own projects, Morrow said. Last year the group launched Custom Publishing, a publishing business for students and professors. Its success allowed the group to pocket some profits and forge ahead on other projects, such as the computer plan this year, which Morrow said would cost $30,000 to $35,000.
He said details of the project had not been finalized.

"We are evaluating methods of payment, sources of computers and cash flow," he said.
Pavel V. Maraev, a senior exchange student from Ukraine and the group's president, said it would most likely borrow the
"We are exploring possibilities for how to buy the computers," Maraev said. "It will probably take the form of a loan, possibly from a corporate sponsor."
Once the group has the computers, members will begin to conduct seminars. Maraev said.
"The hardest part will not be coming up with the money, because we have seen that it's possible," Maraev said. "The hardest part will be developing a strong seminar that people will want to pay for."
The group also will go into high schools as an outreach activity. It will conduct educational seminars about issues such as buying a car, budgeting for college and prospects in the job market. The School of Business has agreed to give $5,000 it had budgeted for high school outreach to the computer project.

Low renovation bid benefits new building
By Jason Pearco Kansan staff writer
The image shows a large, multi-story building with multiple levels and extensive windows. The architecture is modern, featuring a combination of glass panels and concrete structures. The building is surrounded by greenery, including trees and shrubs, indicating an outdoor environment. There are several buildings visible in the background, suggesting that this area is part of a larger complex or campus. The overall impression is one of a well-designed, modern educational or administrative facility.
The University of Kansas will save nearly half a million dollars in its quest to move the School of Education from Bailey Hall to a renovated and expanded Joseph R. Pearson Hall.
This is an artist rendering of Joseph R. Pearson Hall, which will become the new School of Education home in the fall of 2000. Contributed art.
The building's general construction will cost $10,049,100, which is $461,900 less than anticipated.
University architect Warren Corman said the University previously

could begin as early as Nov. 1, once the University is able to secure state bonds. The building is scheduled to open in the fall semester of 2000.
The total estimated construction cost — including architectural fees and a contingency fund for unknown costs — will be $13,783,229.
the safe way to be so you won't run out of money."
University officials selected Ferrell Construction of Topeka to head up the project last week after it submitted the lowest bid. Demolition work
"It looks the same from the outside, but the inside will not just be dorm rooms."
Corman said building contractors were asked to bid on six alternate construction plans at JRP, which included an additional wing of classrooms and complete renovation of the sixth and seventh floors into office space.
He said the University requested alternate bids so the final cost could

be quickly
amended if the
total cost
became too
high.
But because the general and alternate bids were under budget, the University can afford to
make all its desired changes.
Money for the construction will come from a state-funded program called Crumbling Classrooms. This program gives Kansas' public universities money to repair and renovate older campus buildings.
Karen Gallagher, dean of education, said she was pleased with the construction costs.
"I am thrilled to be able to have all
of the alternate plans in the works." Gallagher said. "This is really going to be a wonderful facility."
The building will include 11 classrooms, a 125-person lecture room, a training and counseling center, faculty offices, a resource library, 11 seminar rooms and several instructional lab rooms.
One lab will be an instructional design lab to teach students how to incorporate Internet technology into their education.
To get ready for the move, Gallagher said education faculty members had formed a committee to begin working on the summer of 2000 transition.
Also, Gallagher and Chancellor
Robert Hemenway plan to ask for $1 million in contributions to furnish the renovated JRP.
Ferrell Construction has renovated Templin Hall and is now working on Lewis Hall renovations.
Tim Browder, project manager said the JRP project was not the same.
"This is a completely different building." Browder said. "It looks the same from the outside, but the inside will not just be dorm rooms."
Browder said the company would work through winter.
"The way the construction business is now, we have to work through the winter," he said. "You just battle the weather and get it done."
Unions are not always best solution, say GTAs
By Julie M. Sachs
Karen staff writer
Kansan staff writer
The Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition prides itself in creating better conditions for all graduate teaching assistants, but some GTAs said the union only hurts their situations.
Mike Hancock, GTA in English, said it was frustrating when the union acquired health care for all GTAs because it came with a catch. By accepting the health care plan, graduate students relinquished their $90 waiver in semester fees.
"I really liked having fees covered, but I got health insurance instead," said Hancock, who is not a member of GTAC.
Problems with the union, Hancock said, extend beyond bad negotiations. He said he also thought the union could not represent all GTAs, because it did not know them well enough.
The acceptance of eliminating the fee waiver was the only way to receive a health care plan and originated from union bargaining, said Mark Horowitz, president of GTAC.
Wes Beal, GTAC organizer, said the union had several benefits.
"For me, it's right up there with going to the voting booth, but you don't just go every four years." Beal said. "You're able to have a voice when you see things you want to change. It's very good for people's self esteem."
Bael said he was aware of reasons why some GTAs did not join the union, such as the $12 monthly dues. He said disagreement with the union's ways also kept some GTAs from joining.
Hancock said some of the tactics used by the union bothered him, such as the group's visits to Chancellor Robert Henmey's office.
"They come in with a mass of people to confront one individual." Hancock said. "They try to show him up."
Chris Foster, a former GTA at the University, said he disagreed with the way unions operate in general.
Although Foster did eventually join GTAC, he said some aspects of union business always bothered him.
"I don't like a lot of the rhetoric making the employer look bad," he said. "It's this perspective of us against the employer. To me, they're doing their job, I'm doing mine."
Careless littering trashes campus grounds, sidewalks
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Coke cans, cigarette butts and Kansan inserts are just a few of the items on a list of campus clutter that Victoria Silva saves students need to help clean up.
Silva, the University of Kansas' resource conservation manager, said she thought students needed to be more conscious about the effects of littering on campus.
Some areas on campus that Silva noticed had a lot of litter included the grounds and sidewalks along Jayhawk Boulevard, the sidewalks between Haworth and Summerfield halls and the south side of Wescoe Hall.
"One evening I went for a walk on campus, and I was just appalled at some of the trash that I saw," Silva said. "There were whole pizza boxes and Styrofoam containers, and just every kind of trash imaginable. I could not believe it."
Bence Williams, assistant director for facilities operations, said both the special services and landscape shop sections of facilities operations were responsible for keeping the campus clean.
pickup was not the only part of the job.
"I think that with the staff and resources that they have, they are doing an exceptional job with keeping the campus clean," Williams said.
Bob Porter, associate director of plant maintenance, said that facilities operations employees tried to focus on trash collection as much as possible but that garbage
pickup was not the only part of the job. Porter said the University focused more on trash collection when there were special events on campus.
"Usually, special events create more trash on campus, so we place more emphasis on pickup. We want the campus to look nice for our visitors." Porter said.
Last year, the University spent $7,500 to take trash from the brown concrete receptacles located throughout campus to the dump, Porter said. This cost included transporting to the dump trash picked up off the ground.
The university also spent $7,400 on trash pickup for 13 dumpsters on campus. Porter said the trash pickup costs have risen each year.
Cari Dillon, DeSoto freshman, said she thought careless smokers contributed to the campus litter.
"I think that the sidewalks on campus look dirty because students just flick their cigarettes on the ground when they are done with them," Dillon said. "I think that's just disgusting."
Todd Simmons, president of the Environmental Studies Student Association, said he might organize a campus-wide cleanup later this semester through the University's Department of Environment, Health & Safety. Anyone interested in volunteering to help with future campus cleanups may contact Silva at 864-2855.
THE DIRTY FACTS
- Victoria Silva, environmental specialist, said many campus areas had exceptional amounts of litter, including the grounds and sidewalks along Jayhawk Boulevard, the sidewalks between Haworth and Summerfield halls and the south side of Wescoe Hall.
- Special services and landscape shop sections of facilities operations are responsible for keeping the campus clean.
■ Last year the University spent $7,500 dumping brown concrete trash receptacles located on campus, and $7,400 on trash pick-up for 13 dumpsters on campus.
■ Costs for trash pick-up have risen each year per ton of trash, said Bob Porter, assistant director of plant maintenance.

Track history
Athlete was miles ahead of competition
This is the second in a series about Kansas all-time running great leading up to the NCAA Championships at Rim Rock Farm in November.
By Cal Butcher Special to the Kansan
If does not matter how small the town is, what obstacles need to be overcome, success is possible with desire.
That is the moral of the story of the legendary Glenn Cunningham.
He grew up in Elkhart in southwestern Kansas and became the world's fastest miler in the 1930s.
At Rim Rock Farm, the University of Kansas' home cross country course and site of the 1998 NCAA Division I and II Cross Country Championships, seven life-sized silhouettes depict some of the most successful athletes in Kansas history.
Cunningham, Al Frame, John Lawson, Billy Mills, Jim Ryun, Wes Santee and Herb Semper are being honored by former Kansas coach Bob Timmons who owns the course. He had silhouettes installed so runners and fans could enjoy them at the championships on Nov. 23.
Cunningham's story is heroic and historic. A kerosene fire burned young Cunningham's legs. He was in the hospital for six months recovering from the burns.
Told he might never walk again, he began running to strengthen his legs. He won nine national Amateur Athletic Union Championships and an Olympic silver medal.
Kansas assistant track and field coach Sam Hume was born in Elkhart. He remembered visiting the park that bears Cunningham's name.
Cunningham inspired him to become an athlete and coach.
"I think about it all the time," Hume said. "When I'm talking to recruits, I tell them it doesn't matter if they aren't from the big city. They've got just as much of a chance as anybody."
Cunningham was the first NCAA track champion at Kansas, winning the mile in 1932 and 1933. He received the Sullivan Award as the nation's top amateur athlete in 1933.
In 1934, he held the world records in the indoor 1,500 meters and in the indoor and outdoor miles. From 1932-34, he won 13 Big Six Conference Championships, including back-to-back-to-back titles in the outdoor 680 yard run and the mile. His conference championships ranged in distance from the mile relay to the two mile run.
His Kansas contributions did not end after leaving.
Cunningham placed fourth in the 1,500 meters at the 1932 Olympics. He traveled to Berlin in 1936 on the Olympic team with Jesse Owens, and this time, Cunningham finished second in the 1,500 meters. He was an original inductee of the National Track and Field Hall of Fame in 1974.
"Even after he had finished school, he came back to run at the (Kansas) Relays," said Wes Santee, who starred at Kansas in the early 1950s. "And even when he finished competing, he used to come and watch every year."
Cunningham ran in his last Relays in 1940, but was a staple at many meets until his death in 1988. The Kansas track team annually presents the Glenn Cunningham Award to those who provide exceptional leadership, while overcoming personal adversity.
Timmons said Cunningham's widow Ruth and one of his twelve children were expected to attend next month's festi ties. It is Cur
ningham's silhouette that you will now see near the in Rock Farm starting line.
And it is the Glen Cunningham finish line that every runner hopes to cross first.

Kansas soccer team loses 1-0 in close Texas Tech match
By Brad Hallier
Kansas sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
NORMAN, Okla. — The road to San Antonio has become a little tougher for the Kansas soccer team.
Texas Tech scored in the 79th minute, and the Red Raiders held on for a 1-0 win against Kansas yesterday at Parkhad Field at Griffin Park. The Jayhawks are 5-7-1 overall, 1-3-1 in the Big 12 Conference. Hike, only
Soccer Ball
"We're only
nailway through the conference schedule," Kansas coach Dan Magner said. "We don't want to get down or negative. We still have five contests to play in the conference."
The Red Raiders controlled the first 36 minutes of the match, but Kansas controlled the final 10 minutes of the first half.
Everybody raised their level," Magner said. "Melanie Schroeder added a real spark. Taking people on and going to the goal was very helpful to us."
The Jayhawks nearly scored first in the 46th minute when defender Kvlie Watts found herself one-on-one
with Tech goalkeeper Brittney Peese. Watts chipped the ball over the bar of the goal.
Defender Jackie Dowell had a free kick in the 50th minute from about 30 yards out that struck the crossbar. It was the second time this season she has hit the crossbar in a 1-0 loss.
"I was kind of far out, but I looked up and thought we needed to take opportunities," she said. "I hope I don't hear the ping of the crossbar again."
Katie Garrity started in goal for the second time this season. She performed well, saving five shots including one in the 69th minute.
Kansas nearly found the net again in the 57th minute when forward Erin Hon had a shot on a breakaway, but again Peese smothered it.
A Red Raider hit a hard shot across the mouth of the goal from 10 yards out, but Garrity got a hand on the ball and pushed it wide of the goal.
"It was a tough loss for sure," she said. "I didn't play that well. I was hesitant on a lot of balls I shouldn't have been. I had a good save, a big save, but I knew that she was going

to shoot there. It helped keep our momentum."
Kansas defender
Texas Tech finally broke the deadlock in the 79th minute. Forward Amy Rutstein broke free behind the Kansas defense and placed a perfect shot into the upper left-hand corner of the goal from about 18 yards out.
Magner praised the hard work of defenders Dowell, Watts, Lindsey Loefler and Sarah Korpi. The four played the entire 300 minutes the team has played in three games since Friday.
"They were stand-out players," he said. "They did well, considering the number of minutes they played."
The Jayhawks play their final home games against No. 10 Nebraska on Friday and against Iowa State on Sunday.
The games will be the final home matches for seniors Korpi, Hon, Dowell and Jen Silvers.

Commentary
Memories of football are childhood highlights
I asked myself this weekend why I'm a football fan.
Some people might brush sports aside, saying that fanaticism about athletics is merely an escape. And it's true that sports
are an escape — a great excuse to sit on the couch Saturday and Sunday afternoons in front of a television.
But competition has given me and many people I know so much more.
Cross country meets, baseball games and soccer matches are gathering places.

For me, football represents all that is important and good about sports.
the lights at the football stadium draw people in cars, pickups and on foot to the local competition between the hometown team and its archrivals from 30 miles down the highway.
for me, resisted opportunities important and good about sports. I grew up wanting to be a high school, college and professional football player. It wasn't a desire born out of a violent thirst for blood or the need to escape from a lowly background.
Once, when I was little, Dad told Paul and me that the best football players stayed low. On the next play, we both lowered our heads, ran and smoked our skulls together
I remember playing catch with my dad and running patterns against my brother Paul. I learned the down and out route, the button hook and the fly pattern playing with my family.
in grade school we'd play football at recess along a barbed wire fence whose posts marked the distance needed for a first down. Like other school children, we had ms — the Pittsburgh Steelers,
In grade school we'd play football
favorite teams - the Pittsburgh Steelers,
Dallas Cowboys and the Kansas City Chiefs
The first organized games I remember seeing were eight-man football games played in Odell, Neb., between local high school teams. I also saw my uncle, Fred, play football at Concordia College in Seward, Neb.
After one of the games, Paul wore Fred's jersey and sweat-soaked shoulder pads. On my very young brother, the sleeves covered most of his arms and the Jersey brushed the ground.
At Thanksgiving, Christmas and other weekend family gatherings at grandma's house we'd play football. Paul and I measured our physical progress in those games. First we guarded each other, but gradually as we grew faster, bigger and stronger, we lined up against our uncles.
As a freshman at Marysville High School, I played organized football for the first time. Coach Dallas Cox asked me if I'd play quarterback for the Bulldogs because he thought I'd remember the plays.
My big chance came my junior year. Both our all-league quarterback and our all-state center graduated. Coach Bill Lo We asked me to practice at both positions. Robert Peschel was faster and quicker than me, so he became our wishbone quarterback, and I became the center — 165 pounds of high school lineman.
I still play catch with my dad, brother, uncles and cousins; compete in intramurals at the University of Kansas and play games with my friends at home. I love football not for the oaf, beer-swilling fanaticism but for the memories of family, friends and the punt I blocked against Hiawatha in a district game my junior year in high school.
I hope you have something as dear to your heart.

Today's birthday (Oct. 15).
Friends will teach you to let out your natural talent. They will be glad to coach you when they get scary, so don't worry. Go ahead and become magnificent. it looks like your life love is stable, although slightly unusual, with someone you have known for years. You are in for abundance, security and good benefits.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You should be having a great time with the moon in Leo. Pluto in Sagittarius gives you a grand trine in fire signs. You will be so enthusiastic and exuberant that you will bounce over minor difficulties. You look marvelous and have the attention of an attractive person.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Every time you turn around, you are running into opposition. Might as well get used to it. Just hold your ground on the most important stuff, and let them have a few minor points. It will distract them, and you could get away with the thing you want the most.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5. You are more confident today, and that is drawing attention from a very attractive person. You would like this person to think you are in control of everything, but do not pretend you know more than you do or have more authority. They like you the way you are.
Cancer (June 22-July 22); Today is a 6.
The sun is in Libra and the moon is in Leo. Money is coming in today. Push the right buttons and pull the right strings. Also, take hold of an opportunity that is not going to last long. A friend will point it out to you
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You are awesome, surpassing every your own expectations. The adoration you are getting from fans is making you more confident. You could do the whole thing alone, but it is more fun to have others applauding your magnificent accomplishments.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
An arrogant know-it-all is difficult to live with, but put up with it. One of the keys to success is adaptability, and that is going to come in handy right now.
Another key is your ability to see what is coming and stay out of the way if necessary.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is an 8.
Your friends will teach you what you need to know or give you a boost. They might believe in you even more than you believe in yourself. That is OK, at least for a little while. Allow yourself to be convinced of your own magnificence. Then, get to work to prove it.
**Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)**: Today is a 4.
Put up with an older person's whims today. There is no point in arguing. He or she has the advantage, and will not listen to you. You drive to succeed, and new opportunities are becoming available. To get the big break, you may have to make friends with the enemy, at least temporarily.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You and your friends are in festive moods, but do not forget the job at hand. Unfortunately, it is not as interesting as the conversation around the water cooler.
You could make new friends, but you will lose your job if you do not do the tedious stuff.
12
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You may know a lot of the gossip, but do you know where the real money is coming from, or going? If you keep your ear to the door, you could find out. The more you know, the more valuable you become. Learn enough to crank yourself up to the next pay bracket.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
You would like to make a date, but there may not be time. It looks like your work goes late because of complications beyond your control. It might be a foulup on somebody else's part, but you are the one who is delegated to fix it. Maybe you can get another person to help. That would be wise.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
Join forces with a partner instead of butting heads,
and you will figure out how to achieve a goal you
share. If you do not have a shared goal yet, make
that a priority. You two have been known to argue for
years about trivialities, but that is not a good idea.
You could miss the opportunity altogether.

Kansas' late-game woes continue
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Last season when the Kansas defense was stopping the opponents, it was the Kansas offense that couldn't produce points.
Well, the tables have turned.
when the tapes have turned.
The Jayhawks' defense, which intercepted Baylor quarterbacks four times Saturday night,
failed to stop the Bears when they needed stopping the most.
With Kansas and Baylor tied, 24-24, the Bears began a late fourth-quarter drive that took them 90 yards in 1:09. They scored with 49 seconds remaining and won the game 31-24.
"I've seen this game like four times this year," cornerback Muhammad Abdul-Rahim said. "Being up or being tied in the fourth quarter, and we just can't reach down and get a victory."
Last-minute drives cost the Jayhawks the game against Oklahoma State, Texas A&M and Bavlor.
"If you look at the beginning of each of the games, it's obvious we're not a bad team," linebacker Pat Brown said. "I know we can play with any team, but
Abdul-Rahim each intercepted a Baylor pass.
we're not proving it, and we've not proven it over and over again."
A spectator watching the earlier part of Saturday's game would probably never have thought that the Kansas defense would fail in the end.
The Baylor offense crushed the Kansas defense for 457 yards — 169 rushing and 288 passing.
"If someone had told me before the game that every one of us was going to get a pick, I knew we would have a victory then." Abdul-Rahim said. "You can expect a win with four turnovers."

Kansas expected it, but the team did not produce.
Twice when the Kansas defense had forced the Bears to a third down and nearly 30 yards to go, Baylor quarterback Jermaine Alfred threw hall

In four quarters of play, every starter on the Kansas secondary had forced a Baylor turnover.

producing Baylor first downs. "Their big plays outweighed the four interceptions," Abdul-Rahim said.
So why can't the Jayhawks go the distance?
"There was no drop-off in effort whatsoever," Brown said. "We just weren't executing like we were, say a couple of minutes ago or whatever the case may be."
in the nation. The Cornhuskers lost their first game in more than two seasons to the Texas A&M Aggies.
Kansas plays Nebraska this weekend, one of the best teams
"I think, as a group, we just need to have a turnaround," Abdul-Rahim said. "We played really good defense against A&M. If we go up to Nebraska, I'm not guaranteeing a win, but we're going to go up there and accomplish something up there, make something happen up there."

Cornhusker loss takes heavy toll on Nebraska
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — You'll have to forgive Nebraska football fans if they're a tad grumpy this week.
of the football universe."
You see, Saturday's 28-21 loss to Texas A&M was Nebraska's first regular-season conference defeat since 1992, when No. 7 Nebraska stubbed its toe against lowly Iowa State.
The A&M loss was THE topic of conversation yesterday around the state, where there is no other major college football program or professional sports team and a billboard across from Memorial Stadium proclaims "Welcome to the center
Heck, even Gov. Ben Nelson weighed in on the matter at his weekly telephone conference call with reporters.
"The year is not gone. All is not wasted," said Nelson, a Nebraska alumnus and big football fan. "There is
still a lot of opportunity out there." Saturday's loss snapped Nebraska's nation-leading, 19-game winning streak and dropped the Cornhuskers, who had been ranked
second in both major polls, to No. 8.
second in both major polls, to No. 8. Simply being ranked in the Top 25 would be cause for giddiness in most programs. But this is Nebraska, which hasn't had a losing season since 1961 and has won or shared five national championships since 1970 — an average of about one every five years or so.
Gums were flapping at the Lincoln Straight Edge Barber Shop.
"We've got a good group of guys, but the leadership isn't where it was the past few years," said barber Dick Olson.
It was the first loss for new coach Frank Solich, who took over this season for the revered Tom Osborne.
Some went right to the top and directed their bilious venom toward the coaches.
Some fans blamed the defense; others sniped about the offense.
Solich made no excuses
"They beat us because they played better," he said.
Many fans were philosophical.
Many lans were philosophical. Salesman Joe Crosswhite said the Cornhuskers probably would use the setback as a springboard, just as they did after the 1929 loss.
"You get used to winning — everything," he said. "Maybe this will get them focused."

Kansas (2-4, 0-4) has led in the second quarter of all four losses, even on the road against A&M. Baylor (2-3, 1-2) beat North Carolina State when it was No. 20 and only lost to Colorado by two points in Boulder. Oklahoma (2-3, 0-2) could have started the year 4-0 with more accurate kickers.
"Every weekend you're seeing teams that are fighting," Brown said. "The comparative scores in this league are scary at how close they can be."
The idea the four former Southwest Conference schools were riding the former Big Eight's coattails is no longer true. This past weekend, all four SWC holdovers beat former Big Eight foes: A&M upset Nebraska, Texas crushed Oklahoma, Texas Tech got past Oklahoma State and Baylor came back to beat Kansas.
From his perspective, the league is among the best in the country, right where he thinks it belongs.
Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum said the wins showed that the league was going to be more balanced.
"I always felt like that's how the SEC was, that teams beat each other up," said Mack Brown, in his first year coaching at Texas and in the Big 12. "You better be
Take a look at how well some of the unranked teams have fared.
Colorado (5-1), coming off a loss to Kansas State, is No. 19, one spot ahead of Missouri (4-1).
Texas Tech (6-0), enjoying its best start in 22 years, moved into the poll this week at No. 22.
"I think we've already demonstrated there's some balance in the league."
"In two years we've had two champions, one from the North, and one from the South," he said.
"I don't think the conference has ever been too far away," Snyder said. "We need a little time to determine our identity.
readv everv week."
"In two years, we've had two champions, one from the North, and one from the South. I think we've already demonstrated there's some balance in the league."
Kansas State (5-0) is ranked No. 4. Nebraska (5-1) had been No. 2 but slid to No. 8. following a loss to Texas A&M that propelled the Aggies (5-1) to No. 10.
R.C. Slocum Texas A&M coach
"People were saying this was a down conference last year and we won a national championship. I have a hard time realizing there's a problem with the strength of the conference. It will take hits once in awhile, but, for continuity and consistency, it's always going to be one of the strongest in the country."

With the Padres just five outs away from reaching the World Series for the first time in 14 years, manager Bruce Bochy's strategy to bring on Braves-jake Brown blew up when Tucker hit a go-ahead, three-run homer that sent Atlanta to a 7-6 win last night in Game 5.

Braves rally late to remain in race
SAN DIEGO — Michael Tucker and the Atlanta Braves did what they had to do to stay alive in the NL championship series, staging a stunning comeback against no less than Kevin Brown.
Bochy's move looked good in the seventh, when Brown came on with a 4-2 lead, a runner on and no outs, and retired the side, but now it will be heavily questioned.

Steinbrenner savors role in Yankees club
By Jim Litkey
CLEVELAND — He can't pitch and the only thing he's likely to hit is the postgame buffet.
Yet there was George Steinbrenner shaking hands, skipping backs and strolling through the Yankees clubhouse after Game 5 as if he played as big a role as anyone else in securing the 3-2 lead his team took back to New York
He was even talking trash as if he were one of the guys.
"Now we're going to get them to our team."
"Now we our town," the Boss said, "and beat the snot out of them."
When Steinbrenner began his whirlwind tour, David
CLEVELAND
means, the pitching star of the New York Yankees' 5-3 win Sunday, was still picking through his postgame meal in the sanctity of the training room. The Boss cracked the door and stuck his head in, any way. "Nice job. David!" he barked.
In the next moment, Steinbrenner turned abruptly and searched out Chili Davis, who led the New York hit parade with three RBI on a first-inning single and a solo
home run. The Boss was already
runing a half-dozen camera crews.
Unable to get through the crowd of reporters surrounding Davis' locker, he ligered at the edge just long enough to make eye contact. Then, Steinbrenner flashed his very expensive designated hitter (one of four on New York's roster) the thumbs-up sign and mouthed the words, "Nice job!"
The moment after that, Steinbrenner was off to the farthest corner of the clubhouse to check out the birthday cake he had ordered for pitcher Orlando Hernandez's 29th birthday. Naturally, it was decorated with Yankees' pintripes.
Much has been made of New York winning an American League record 114 games during the regular season and advancing deep into the playoffs without the benefit of a real firebrand in the dugout, a vocal leader on the order of Cleveland's Omar Vizquel, San Diego's Jim Leyritz or Atlanta's Chipper Jones.
But don't mention it around Steinbrenner. In addition to all his other duties, the Boss has taken it upon himself to set the mood in the clubhouse. That helped explain why Steinbrenner felt compelled to sit down with Wells earlier in the afternoon and share in the left-han-
der's earsplitting, pregame ritual.
"We listened to that metallic band for a half hour," Steinbrenner said. The Boss was still wearing his uniform, a trademark blue blazer. It is hard to picture the two of them swaving in time to the music.
"It's true," Wells confirmed a moment later.
Then he rolled his eyes.
"But the band's name is Metallica," Wells said. "And one of these days, George's going to get it right."
Yankees
Since Cincinnati Reds owner Marge Schott was exiled from baseball for repeatedly insulting women and almost every racial and ethnic group in America, Peter Angelos of Baltimore has been Steinbrenner's only real rival in the meddling owners' department. But as the Boss' recent behavior reminds, neither Angelos nor Schott can touch Steinbrenner as a hands-on administrator.
Steinbrenner has been known to personally instruct the cleanup crew at Yankee Stadium on how to wash down the concourses and about a month ago ordered a vendor to throw out a batch of stale pretzels and replace them with
fresh ones.
Making his way to Cleveland for the weekend, Steinbrenner sat down in a hotel lobby next to a 14-year-old boy from Connecticut who told Steinbrenner about being hit with a foul ball in Yankee Stadium two years ago. Naturally, Steinbrenner ordered the kid into uniform for Game 4 — as an honorary bat boy — and gave him the locker next to Wells.
On Sunday night, that boy, Jason D'Angelos, was leaving the clubhouse just as the Boss was walking in.
"You did a nice job, Jason. Go home and tell everybody at school." And then, just for good measure, Steinbrenner barked after him. "And make sure you pay attention to your schoolwork."
Truth be told, this weekend was tougher on the Boss than most. He grew up around Cleveland and locals brag that before he bought into the Yankees, Steinbrenner harbored dreams of buying the Indians. Last year his club came within four outs of eliminating Cleveland from the division series, only to have the Indians turn the tables and go all the way to the World Series. As it is for most bullies, defeat carries sharper memories for him than wins.
"You can't compare that feeling to this one," he said.

Students remove offensive quotation
Internet site raises content questions
By Liz Wristen
By Liz Wriston
Kansan staff writer
Last night, three University of Kansas students removed potentially libelous information from their Web site after University officials began investigating it.
J. D. Jenkins, Shawnee sophomore; Chris Borniger, Wichita sophomore; and Brian Bartelt, Des Moines, Iowa, sophomore, all Templin Hall residents, designed a site in 1997 using the name Paula Revere, which displayed a picture of Templin exploding and contained obscene language.
WEB SITE
The students were advised by KU Legal Services to remove a quotation from the site attributed to a former University housing official. Jenkins said it was considered libelous because it likely was
The students' site is at www.angelfire.com/kis/TemplinRevolution.
■ Kansas University Campus Internet Association received a complaint about a link from its Web site last week.
■ On the advice of KU Legal Services, the students who created the site removed potentially libelous material from the site.
■ Guidelines are in the process of being written so students understand the University Internet policies.
the students linked their site, Templin Revolution, to the Kansas University Campus Internet Association Web site (www.ukans.edu/kucia) last month.
Tenight, the association will meet with members of Student Senate to discuss the issue of Internet censorship guidelines at the University.
Jerry Niebaum, vice chancellor for information services and director of the Academic Computing Center, received a complaint from Ken Stoner, director of student housing, last week that the association page's link to the Templin Revolution site was upsetting.
Stoner could not be reached for comment.
Jenkins said the site was started because the students thought their hall government wasn't representing them.
not written by the official.
"We weren't trying to offend anybody,
we just thought it was funny," he said.
we just thought it was funny, the. Josf Fry, vice chairman of advocacy for the University branch of the American Civil Liberties Union, said, "KUCA is receiving direct complaints about it, and in our view, we thought they hadn't done anything wrong."
Niebau said that the link had been under discussion for about a month and that he met with members of KUCIA Friday to discuss the situation.
Hafid Saba, KUCI vice president, said the KU Facts Advisory Committee recommended the KUCI site be left alone.
"Basisically, there was really nothing that they could do to control what we put on the site." Saba said. "However, now that something like this has come up, we can help write up some rules that may be used in the future if this happens again."
Saba said the KU Facts Advisory Committee would work on developing University Internet policies.
Guidelines could state that student Web sites should be used for instructional research projects and they are related to a University mission, Niebaua said.
Michael Grobe, assistant director of academic computing services and KUCIA adviser, said he thought the Templin Hall link was reasonable because it was associated with the University.
"I think one of the issues that needs to be clarified is whether students can put links on their Web pages that point to offensive documents." Grobe said.
Fraternity to face hazing investigation
University places Phi Kappa Theta on interim suspension after complaint
By Augustus Anthony Plazza
Kansas staff writer
Phi Kappa Theta fraternity was placed on interim suspension yesterday pending a hazing investigation.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, suspended Phi Kappa Theta, 1941 Stewart Ave., while University of Kansas and fraternity officials investigate allegations of hazing at the fraternity.
First, there will be an investigation to verify that the allegations are true. Second, a hearing will be held to see if the hazing codes were broken. Third, some type of action ranging from a probationary status to a lengthy suspension could be imposed by Ambler.
According to a written statement from the University, a student filed a formal complaint against the fraternity yesterday, and the fraternity was notified of its suspension yesterday afternoon.
"There was no life-threatening action here," Ambler said last night. He said that the student who filed the complaint didn't have any serious injuries.
In the written statement, Ambler said: "Hazing not only violates University policy but
According to the Students Rights and Responsibilities policy for Conduct of Students and Organizations, Article 22.A: "Hazing includes, but is not limited to any action, activity or situation which recklessly, negligently or intentionally endangers the mental or physical health, welfare or safety of a person."
regulations of the Interfraternity Council and Phi Kappa Theta's national policy as well. No student should have to suffer or tolerate this kind of childish behavior, and we are intent on eliminating it from our Greek system."
Bill Nelson, coordinator for Greek programs; Tim Nadon, Kpi Phappa Theta president; Cory Littlepage, Interfraternity Council president, and Bruce Cuppo, president of the
Phi Kappa Theta Alumni Board, were contacted, but they did not want to comment on the situation until the investigation was completed.
Ambler said there were three steps in the University's investigation process.
Nelson said that he didn't know how long the investigation would last.
"At this point, I don't want to speculate," he said. "As we learn more, that will dictate the duration of the investigation."

Interracial dating discussed
Supporters stress relationships focus on character, not race
By Angela Johnson
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
A panel of KU students talked last night about their experiences dating outside their race.
The seminar, which was part of Hispanic Heritage Month, was held at the Multicultural Resource Center and sponsored by the Hispanic American Leadership Organization. About 40 people attended the event.
All of the panelists said they had received little or no criticism from their family and friends by being in interracial relationships.
Conway Ekpo, Lawrence senior, said because his mother was white and his father was black, he had always had the freedom to date anyone, regardless of race.
"I am the product of an interracial relationship, so I never had any restrictions from my parents," he said. "My dad told me to judge by character and not by race."

Johnny's Tavern is up for sale

A nearly century-old business north of the Kansas River is up for sale.
By Chris Fickett
Establishment may close doors after almost a century
Kansan staff writer
Competition from downtown bars, lack of recognition as a restaurant and bar and increased liquor law enforcement are among the reasons that Johnny's Tavern, 401 N. Second St., was put up for the sale simp a month ago.
Rick Renfro, co-owner, said Johnny's still attracted its traditional working-class crowd but KU students weren't coming out to the bar at night.
"It's nice for the kids to drop off their cars and walk from bar to bar. They just don't seem to want to drive across the river," he said.
Johnny's also pulls in 35 percent of its total revenue from food sales.
Johnny's opens at 9 a.m. daily and attracts third-shift workers and a blue-collar crowd for lunch, he said
Renfro said Johnny's was losing business to bars across the river on Massachusetts Street because of convenience.
RenPro said that students did not realize that
Johnny's was a place to have a drink and get something to eat.
The tavern also lost revenue from increased liquor law enforcement. Renfro said customers under 21 years of age now were admitted into Johnny's only under special circumstances, usually for lunch or if the staff could monitor them effectively.
"I still think that we can pull through if I can get some college kids to come down for a cheeseburger," he said.
Stephen Jones, Dallas senior, had his 21st birthday party at Johnny's.
But, Jones said that he hadn't visited Johnny's since last year when his friend had a party there. That night, two KU sophomores in their group received minor in possession violations from police.
Jones said that there was no point in going to Johnny's anymore because no one was there.
Renrof said that both the building and the business were up for sale. Depending if the person who buys the property wants to maintain the business as Johnny's will determine whether the tavern will survive in Lawrence, he said.
Co-owners Doug Hassig and Louie Rieder definitely want to sell the Johnny's location in Lawrence, but Renfo said he was optimistic the tavern could remain open.
Other Johnny's locations in Shawnee and Overland Park will remain open under the same ownership.
Parking officials stick to their policy

stated in the directions to apply the sticker to the car, but word of mouth should be enough to let everyone know.
Kaiser: Says stickers meant to prevent pass swapping.
"Some people come to me and want to
know why they've gotten a ticket," she said. "They have the permit in the proper place but it's taped up on the inside of the window. We want people to apply the sticker to the outside of the car. If they come in and complain about a ticket because they've taped their permit up, I'll cancel the ticket as soon as they apply the sticker properly to the outside of the car."
Corrections
Scott Kaiser, parking board member,
said the reason for applying the stickers
was to avoid students swapping passes.
Hultine said that with the hang tags last year, problems arose when students let others use them. If the person who was borrowing the permit got ticketed, the ticket was charged to the person who owned the permit.
The Parking Board has had several appeals from people who either thought they shouldn't be ticketed because they were tapping their permits up or people who asked for a hang tag. People asked for a hang tag because they either didn't want to put a sticker on their car or drove two cars.
Don Kearns, director of parking, said hang tags were still available, but before anyone is allowed a hang tag they have to provide the parking department with information on both cars they drove to school.

Police investigate string of felony car burglaries
Four Topeka men were arrested yesterday morning in connection with at least seven car burglaries in west Lawrence, police said.
Lawrence police said the men, ages 17,18,19 and 20, were suspected of burglarizing several cars near Wakarusa Drive.
Police did not yet know how many cars were broken into, nor did they have any estimates of the property loss or damage to the vehicles.
The men were arrested at 4 a.m. and placed in the Douglas County jail on charges of conspiracy to commit a felony, aiding and abetting a felon, auto burglary and theft.
The men were arrested when the last car burglary victim, who lives in the 1000 block of Columbine Court, heard someone break his car's window.
"He then came out of the house with a handgun," said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Wheeler said the man saw the suspects drive away and called the police, who arrested the men in the surrounding neighborhood.

Greece to buy planes from Raytheon Aircraft
WICHITA — Raytheon Aircraft Co. has found a second foreign buyer for its military trainer airplane.
The defense ministry of Greece has placed an order with the Wichita-based company for 45 T-6A Texan II trainers, the single-engine aircraft developed for the U.S. Air Force and Navy.
Earlier this year, Bombardier Aerospace placed an order for 24 T-6As to train Canadian military pilots.
Although final contract terms are being negotiated, the Greek contract could be worth more than $200 million to Raytheon Aircraft, including spare parts, factory training for initial flight crews, maintenance and technical personnel.
The TGA is a single-engine, turboprop aircraft developed by Raytheon that was chosen to be the next primary trainer for the U.S. armed forces. The Defense Department plans to buy more than 700 of the planes through 2014 to train Air Force and Navy pilots
So far, the United States has placed firm orders for 46 production models of the aircraft, plus the initial development aircraft. The proposed fiscal 1999 federal budget would authorize the purchase of an additional 22 airplanes.
The first T-64 will be delivered to the U.S. Air Force early next year, under
revised contract terms. Deliveries of the Canadian and Greek aircraft also will begin in 1999.

Searchers find last body from Brush Creek flood
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — An exhausting week-long search through the difficult and muddy terrain along Brush Creek ended Monday with the recovery of a body thought to be the metropolitan area's 11th and last remaining victim from the deluge.
City workers discovered the body, the seventh lost last week in the city's trou blesse waterway, in about 10 feet of murky water and tangled up in debris.
The body is thought to be that of Justin Clark. The medical examiner was checking fingerprints and dental records before confirming it was the body of the 18-year-old Clark.
His brother, Charles Clark Jr., 19. also was a victim of the storm that dumped 7 inches of water on the area in a matter of hours.
The Clark brothers were among the victims swept away when they were trapped by a flash flood that stormed down the creek through the city's east side.
Three bodies had been recovered Monday, two more were found Thursday and a sixth was recovered Saturday.
Near St. Joseph, the Missouri State Highway Patrol gave up the search for Warren L. Akins, 56, whose car was pulled into a Buchanan County creek the night of the storm.
We feel like we've done all we know to do," said Lt. Randy Beydler of the patrol.

Fireworks explosion kills 10 people in Mexico
TULTEPEC, Mexico — A pile of gun-powder used to make illegal fireworks exploded just north of Mexico City today, flattening two blocks and killing at least 10 people. A paramedic said he counted 14 bodies and that 45 people were injured.
Mexico state Gov. Cesar Camacho Quirio said at least 10 people died and 27 were wounded in the explosion in Tultepec, 20 miles north of Mexico City. He said 16 houses were destroyed.
In Tultepec, a crater indicated where the explosion occurred, and all the houses in a two-block area were reduced to rubble. Streets were covered in shattered glass blocks away.
The differing casualty counts could not immediately be reconciled.
Neighbors blocked rescuers and journalists trying to get near the site of the explosion. Angry crowds said a gas tank had exploded, but the smell of gunpowder was strong and television images taken from a helicopter

JERUSALEM — Forest fires raged for a fourth straight day in northern and central Israel yesterday, temporarily closing a major highway and forcing thousands of people from their homes.
Fires in the Carmel forests blazed out of control near the northern port of Haifa, and residents of three nearby villages were evacuated from the area, some for the second time in two days. In the Western Galleie, fire destroyed 25 acres of forest. Israel radio said.
25 acres of forest, Israel radio said. In the hills near Jerusalem, fires smoldering since Monday intensified yesterday, sending thick clouds of smoke toward the Jerusalem-Tel Aviv highway and briefly forcing the closure of the major thoroughfare.
Hundreds of firefighters, soldiers and civilians worked to control the blazes. U.N. peacekeepers deployed north of the border with Israel have used helicopters to drop water on the fires.
In Lebanon, fires have destroyed 675 square miles of pine forest and olive and citrus groves.
The blazes began this weekend in the wooded hills of Batroun in northern Lebanon, spreading quickly to areas that were unusually dry due to a recent heat wave.
About 150 fires have been reported in areas ranging from the outskirts of Tripoli, 50 miles north of Beirut, to villages south of the port of Tyre, 60 miles from the capital.
Palestinian militants kill one man in Israel
ORA, Israel — In a shooting attack police blamed on Palestinian militants, one Israeli man was killed and a second critically wounded today as they swam in a spring near Jerusalem.
The attack came two days before Israeli and Palestinian leaders were to meet in Washington in hopes of concluding an agreement on a West Bank troop pullback.
In the past, Palestinian militant groups have carried out shooting and bombing attacks on Israelis in attempts to wreck Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.
Jerusalem Police Chief Yair Yitzhakl said two assailants used pistols to fire at the bathers from close range. The attackers escaped in the car of the dead man, he said, and the car was found abandoned a short distance away, near the border with the West Bank.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for today's attack near Ora, a cooperative farm southwest of Jerusalem.
Yitzhaki said the assailants apparently ran into Palestinian-controlled territory.

A KU student's handlebars, front fork with shoulders, seat, front and rear brakes, rear tire and trim were stolen from the student's bicycle between 9 p.m. Oct. 3 and 8:30 a.m. Oct. 12 from a rack outside Stouffer Place building number 10, the KU Public Safety Office said. The items were valued at $235.
Interracial dating gives chance to learn

senior, said the term interracial dating had a negative connotation because society had labeled it.
Jones said he had dated within his race, but his partner's American culture was different from his island culture.
"If society has a problem dealing with something, they put a label on it," he said. "Interracial dating is no different. It's just dating. You go into it with the understanding that there are differences, but you appreciate them. You don't consider them barriers."
Lou Williams, Green Bay, Wis., junior, said he enjoyed learning about the differences in people. Williams, who is part Native American, said it helped him to appreciate his own ethnic background.
"When I first came to the States, I dated an African American woman, and people said, 'Oh, that's just two black people together,'" Jones said. "I don't consider myself African American in the cultural sense. Our religion, upbringing and values were different."
"My father is full-blooded Iroquois, and my mother is white," he said. "I am just getting to know the people of my reservation, and the more I learn about my heritage, the more I am proud of it."
"Christmas is such a major thing for her family, and my family really doesn't do much," he said.
Hector Marin, LeoTi freshman, said his girlfriend sometimes had trouble understanding his Hispanic culture and the way Hispanics celebrate holidays.
and my family really doesn't too much, he said.
On the other hand, Marin said Hispanics could throw a great party but that his girlfriend saw it from a different perspective.
"At Mexican parties, people get in fights, and there are bottles everywhere," he said. "My brother would always come home with blood on his shirt. I'd tell her, 'Hey, this is fun.'"

KU experts peer into Chelsea's sense of scandals
Students sympathize with her situation
By Jaime L. Mann
Special to the Kansan
Anger, resentment and fear.
Emotions common for the American electorate in the wake of the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal. They are also the feelings Clinton's college-aged daughter, Chelsea — or any other college-aged woman in similar circumstances — probably would feel. campus counselors said.
Dennis Dailey, professor of sociology, who teaches a popular course in sexuality, said victims of infidelity like Chelsea Clinton may often feel the pain and resentment experienced by their mothers.
"When a young woman discovers that her father has been unfaithful, the overwhelming feeling is a feeling of betrayal," said Dalley. "She usually experiences similar feelings as her mother."
Often times, he said, fear was the underlying issue with college-aged people facing a father's infidelity. Young people usually have an inkling that their parents' relationship is being threatened. They become frightened because they wonder if they will lose their family, he said.
P
When your father happens to be the president of the United States, it can be just as embarrassing as it is maddening.
Chelsea: Probably was embarrassed, hurt by scandal.
"If there is a feeling that captures ambivalence, Chelsea is experiencing it."
Dailey said. "She loves her father but feels betrayed by him. It is truly sad when children of any age have to wonder whether they will lose their family or not."
Dailey said that individuals get more angry at their mothers for unfaithfulness than at their fathers. This may be the result of a culture that tolerates male infidelity more, he said.
KU students said they felt sorry for Chelsea Clinton and had mixed feelings about the president.
Jaime Fertig, Lincoln, Neb., junior, said she felt compassion for Chelsea and any other young adult dealing with this issue.
"My heart goes out to Chelsea," she said. "She must be angry, feel betrayed and embarrassed all together. The entire world knows what her father did. She is a victim here, and she must be terribly frightened of losing her family at this point."
A Topeka sophomore, who wished to
remain anonymous, said that she was still trying to repair her relationship with her unfaithful father.
"I was devastated when I found out that my father had been cheating on my mother. My parents had been married for 23 years and are now divorced because of infidelity. It has been very difficult for me to deal with, and I am so afraid that the same thing will happen to me one day. I love my father dearly, but he has hurt my mother and destroyed our family because of an affe'

Dailey: Says Chelsea probably feels betrayed.
ily because of an affair, she said
Kelly Leyden, Chicago senior, said she
was annoyed with all of the coverage on
the subject.
"I think that his infidelity was wrong, but I don't think what he does behind closed doors has a direct correlation to politics," she said. "The media has gone too far. Clinton's mistakes just show that he is human. It doesn't matter if you are rich, poor, black, white or president of the United States; it all boils down to the fact that we're all human, the same underneath: able to love, hurt, lie and cheat."
Linda Keeler, University of Kansas Counseling and Psychological Services senior health physician, said the issues surrounding family infidelity often affected the student's school work.
"There are many consistent feelings associated with college-aged individuals dealing with infidelity in their home," she said. "They usually experience some sort of concentration difficulty in school, depression and strong feelings against the unfaithful parent."
Latin American Solidarity organization protests military training at schools
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
The School of the Americas, which trains Latin American military officers, is at the center of a controversy that has spread to the University of Kansas.
Members of Latin American Solidarity, a University organization, distributed information yesterday in the Kansas Union about the school, located in Fort Benning, Ga., and its alleged training of students to commit serious human rights violations.
According to its Web site, the school's mission is to provide military training to the nations of Latin America and to promote democracy, human rights and cooperation among multinational military forces.
Marvin Grilliot, graduate student in Latin American studies, said the school was founded during the Cold War to fight a perceived threat of communism in the region.
Critics of the school, operated by the U.S. Army, said the school uses taxpayer funds to train students for assassination and torture.
"When I was in El Salvador, I talked to some people who had suffered in the civil war in the '80s in El Salvador. As has been documented, a lot of those atrocities were committed by graduates of the School of the Americas," he said.
Grilliot had met people who knew firsthand the suffering caused by the school.
Grilliot and other group members are planning to attend an annual protest at the school sponsored by the School of Americas Watch. He said about 20 students had expressed interest in going to Georgia with a group from Kansas City.
The students would travel in vans to Fort Benning on Nov.20 for the protest on Nov.21.
Grilliot said last year about 1,400 people went to the protest and about 600 people crossed the line onto Fort Benning property to deliver signatures of those who wanted the school closed. Those who entered were arrested, including Grilliot.
"I was held for about 31/2 hours."

Mauricio Navia, Cochabamba,

said he would like to take part in the protest.
He said he was unsure if he would cross the line again this year.
"I'd like to go, but I'm afraid if I cross the line I'll get arrested and then lose my international visa," he said.
"We teach U.S. Army doctrine, and we also teach human rights."
Capt Kevin Melver, public affairs officer for the school, defended the school's curriculum.
He said violations committed by the school's graduates did not in result from the school's programs.
"You have to remember, we've had almost 60,000 graduates in 52 years," he said. "There have actually only been 20 graduates tried and convicted of any wrongdoing."
He emphasized the school's human rights programs, which involve cooperation with the International Red Cross.
"What you read in the newspapers and the truth may be two different things."he said.
Latin American Solidarity will continue to man information tables until tomorrow on the fourth floor of the Union. The group will hold a rice and beans dinner and discussion with advocates for the closing of the school at 6 p.m. tomorrow at Ecumenical Christian Ministries. The group will show a video at the dinner.

Fall break, winter intersession plan need approval and student support
As the proposal for a fall break and winter intersession at the University of Kansas faces scrutiny from the Board of Regents, students should express their support for this well overdue schedule change.
A fall break would allow for a two-day break in October by shortening finals period. Provost David Shulenburger sent the proposal, which University Governance already approved this past March, back to the Calendar Committee.
In addition to a fall break, Shulenburger requested the Committee add an intersession, which would extend winter break by one week and potentially allow for study abroad and shortened courses.
The Board of Regents remains skeptical of such an idea, as it requires the University to schedule 160 teaching days, 10 of which are devoted to finals. Regents have expresse concern about extending the school year because it would push graduation into Memorial Day weekend.
Students could study abroad or take classes during a longer winter break.
Bill Tsutsul, chairman of the Calendar Committee and proposal supporter, said one problem with the plan was making the extended weekend provided by fall break into an excuse for taking an entire week off of school. He said, however, that there is nothing stopping students from doing that now.
During the course of the fall semester, students attend about 75 uninterrupted school days until Thanksgiving break. Even then, when students return, they almost immediately have to begin finals preparation. There really is no time for a breather, and a break right after the stress of midterms would be appreciated. The University begins its semesters earlier than any other Regents institution; surely, if other schools start
later, we should be able to have two days off. A similar proposal at Wichita State University was killed last year.
One of the few problems with an intersession or an extended winter break is that the spring semester likely would start after Martin Luther King Day, and some groups worry this would take away from the day's significance.
This aside, the benefits of interes sion are promising. It would allow students to take part in short study abroad and research classes, providing more potential for focus and less stress usually experienced in a typical semester.
This debate is far from finished. Though persuading the Regents will be difficult, the board will listen to students. Therefore, students and campus organizations must come together for a compromise on the issue, and then present a united front to the board in order for a fall break and extended winter break to become reality.

Not sorting recyclables can be costly
Upon noticing the heavy usage of the 48 recycling bins across campus, Victoria Silva, the resource conservation manager, has written a proposal to the University asking for funds to purchase 50 more recycling centers. The cost so far for recycling containers is $2,700 a center. Sending the recyclable materials to the plant yields about $31 a ton.
The KU community should be proud of its recycling efforts. But successful recycling mandates the proper sorting of materials. It may

seem innocuous to throw a University Daily Kansan into the typing paper bin. Yet a minor mistake — or symptom of laziness — like this can cause major problems. If the slip goes unnoticed, the entire load of recyclables becomes contaminated. The recycling company then pays even less for the load, not to mention the extra time and effort it takes the recycling staff to search for the contaminants
So far, this program has earned about $3,700 for 125 tons of newspaper, plastic, and typing paper. The overall success and profit margin of the recycling program should not be hindered by careless sorting. The recycling program will continue to work and receive necessary funds only if members of the University community use it correctly.

Perspective
Graves' opposition to STARS plan puzzling
If you had to decide who should receive more than $60 million in lottery profits, who would you choose; college students or big corporations? Gov. Bill Graves has already made his
choice. To him, corporate giveaways are more important than college scholarships. I don't know about you, but I have to wonder why the governor would side with big business instead of Kansas students.
P
Jack Martin
Guest Columnist
For those of you who haven't heard, Tom Sawyer, the Democratic candidate for governor, is proposing to use $42 million of the nearly $60 million in profits from the Kansas Lottery to finance college scholarships for hard-working Kansas students. The plan is simple: get a B, go to school tuition-free.
Unfortunately, this 75 percent figure is inaccurate, coming not from a scientific study but rather a survey administered to high school seniors. In reality, many of these students end up not attending college because it's beyond their financial means and more students don't finish college because the price is just too high.
It could be Bill Graves is opposed to STARS because lottery dollars are already going to an important program. If that's true, it shows you where his priorities lie. Right now, profits from that lottery ticket you bought go toward two programs. One program builds prisons; the other is for an "economic development" program. In fact, it's little more than corporate welfare.
I'll give you an example of what your lottery dollars are being used for. A businessman in Texas received a grant to build a tire recycling plant in Kansas. Sounds good, right? Wrong. The fact is he built the plant in China instead of Kansas and still got the money. I'm pretty sure that although the original intent of the program was to create jobs, those jobs were supposed to be created in Kansas, not mainland China.
Graves' opposition to Sawyer's plan is puzzling. It's not as if Sawyer's STARS plan is untested. The STARS program is based on the highly acclaimed HOPE scholarship program in Georgia. HOPE has been in place for more than five years, and the program has been a resounding success. High school dropouts are down and parents' involvement in their children's education is up, with little evidence of grade inflation. I would like to see numbers. How much has the dropout rate dropped? How do you know parental involvement has increased? What evidence do you have that says there is little grade inflation?
Perhaps Graves' opposition comes from his belief that college is already affordable for students. Did he say that in a speech? Where is that coming from? Well, it may be affordable for people from the governor's income bracket, but for the majority of students, paying for college is difficult. Many students graduate tens of thousands of dollars in debt and many don't graduate at all simply because they can't afford the cost of higher education.
Maybe the governor's opposition comes from the fact that he thinks enough students are going to college. He and his followers routinely say that 75 percent of Kansas students already go on to college or vocational school.
According to Christy Crenshaw, director of student financial aid for the Kansas Board of Regents: "Kansas has not been a leader in terms of funding for student financial aid. If we are to have a well-educated work force, we have to make it financially possible" (Lawrence Journal.World.Sept. 19,1999).
To further contradict the governor, members of his own administration are saying that Kansas has done a poor job of helping students.
Unfortunately, Gov. Graves is out of touch with the needs of Kansas students. Paying for college is difficult for a lot of people, and the state can and should do more. Contrary to Graves and his followers, the STARS program is a solution to a problem that definitely exists.
Students have a choice Nov. 3: corporate giveaways or college scholarships. The choice is clear: If Bill Graves wins, Kansas students lose-

Analyzing the motivation of the loud music listener
Residence hall living has its drawbacks, as anyone who's ever experienced it can tell you. One of these is noise. It's not just laughing and shrieking outside your
door at two in the morning the night before your big test. Nor is it only the hippies down the hall pounding on bongo drums 24/7. The most common offense simply is playing music too darn loud.
For example, a girl on my floor last year had a bass system that was quite amazing. I could hear her music's rhythmic thumping even when I had my air conditioner, fan and television on. It drove me nuts. It was like Poe's The Telltale
Carrie Johnson

CORRECTION
I often wonder what compuls college students to play music at a level that slowly deafens the listener. Is music more pleasurable if it rattles the windows and makes spackle fall from the ceiling? Probably not.
Heart, except the constant heartbeat came from next door, not from under the floorboards. And I hadn't even killed anyone to deserve such punishment, though sometimes I felt maybe I needed to.
My theory is this: People play music loudly to make a statement such as, "Look at me! I have a good stereo system!" or "Look at me! I like a rap!" or "Look at me! I bought the Armageddon soundtrack!" The purpose of such statements are threefold.
Purpose one: attention-getting. Would anyone really play music at such a level as to damage one's hearing if it didn't elicit a response? Not necessarily a bad response (in the form of a noise citation from the RA), but perhaps a positive comment from a hall passby. "Hey, you like Green Day? Me too! Let's be friends." The behavior is reinforced by recognition from peers.
There's nothing wrong with enjoying music, but problems arise when that music is forced upon others (for whichever of the reasons listed above). Not everyone in your residence hall may appreciate the finer aspects of Wu-Tang, and making them listen to it — through the walls, floors, ceilings, or doors — is inconsiderate. So do me and every other studying or sleeping person a favor. Keep your music only loud enough for YOU to hear it.

Feedback
Political column was unfairly biased
I wish I had the open forum Huskey had last Friday to write a blatantly biased and subjective column to advance my more reasoned political views.
Purpose two: image-association. If someone were to play nothing but Marilyn Manson or Nine Inch Nails, he or she would be hoping people will think of him or her as a tough outcast from society who wears black and likes playing with road kill — or something like that. As Dick Clark so aptly put it, "Music is the soundtrack of your life." When you show everyone what your soundtrack is like, they tend to get a sense of the image you want to project.
It's a sad state when so many people like Huskey come out against tax breaks. If Clinton had the courage to support the Republican tax cuts, Americans would have more disposable income to pump into an economy that appears to have taken a turn for the worse. As for Huskey's assertion that our military is over-financed, I
I'm not saying that everyone who has ever turned up their stereo is a troubled individual. Everyone has done it at one time or another, without really thinking about how it might bother others. I'm talking about the habitual offenders here: People who blast music again and again and probably have enough blue write-up sheets to wallpaper their room.
Purpose three: rebellion. How many freshmen in their first semester at KU have gone out and done everything they could that would unset their parents?
They get tattoos, they get pierced, they stay up until three in the morning, they go out drinking (on school nights, even), they have sex with four different people in one week, and they don't eat a good breakfast every morning before class. Although some of these wild behaviors lose their kick after a few months of college, other habits stay. Playing loud music is one of them. "If Mom were here, she'd yell at me to turn my music down. Well, hah!"
As a good liberal, I question why Huskey would want government subsidizing culture through the National Endowment of Arts. The potential for those mean-spirited Republicans to suggest decency in art must be terrifying.
won't even attempt to rebut such ignorance.
The notion that Republicans are preventing campaign finance reform may be the most absurd, overstated and misleading talking point Democrats have ever spun. The Republicans advocate immediate disclosure of all campaign contributions, whereas Democrats just want to limit the
amount individuals donate. Under the Republican plan, we all know who is financing every campaign. The Democrat plan limits individual donations so they can still reap the millions contributed by unions. I know the Democrats are worried about reform when the party planned on paying $1.5 million in fines even before they were levied for the '96 campaign.
Hopefully I've clarified the truth for all but those "left-wing extremists."

Graduate tests still viewed important for admissions
Tests being rewritten to focus on students' writing capabilities
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Although the Cambridge-based National Center for Fair and Open Testing reported last week that standardized tests were of decreasing importance to some schools in college admissions, KU officials say standardized testing has not been de-emphasized in graduate admissions.
Kim Wilcox, interim director of academic affairs for the Kansas Board of Regents, said graduate testing still played an important role for graduate students.
Some of these graduate tests include the Medical School Admissions Test (MCAT), the Law School Admissions Test (LSAT), the General Aptitude Test Battery (GATB) and the Graduate Record Examination (GRE).
"These graduate tests really play a role for graduates that is similar to what the ACT and
SAT do for undergraduates," Wilcox said. "They test the skills that students have developed and learned over the years."
One of the most common graduate tests is the GRE, which tests the verbal, quantitative and analytical skills of students. Betty Ewell, admissions coordinator for the department of physical therapy education at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said the test was important for students because it tested their ability to retain information. Ewell said the test, like many of the other graduate tests, covered English, science, math, vocabulary and reading skills.
John Poggio, co-director of the center for educational testing and evaluation, said he thought universities had done a lot of rethinking about the importance of graduate testing.
"This test is especially important because it is required for a lot of majors, like physical therapy education," she said. "These tests are given because they are used to evaluate the information that students have learned."
Poggio said standardized tests previously had been designed so that students could take them

quickly and efficiently. The tests involved many multiple-choice answers and little writing.
He said the model for these tests today was being rewritten so that sections requiring student writing and no time limit could be added.
He said the importance of graduate tests had increased during the past 20 years.
"The bottom line is that today, many undergraduate schools depend on information other than a students' test scores," Poggio said. "Getting into graduate school is a bit different because a lot of schools rely on tests like this exclusively."
Gubernatorial hopeful to speak, answer questions at University Affairs meeting
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Student Senate committee members who aspire to be politicians will have a chance to meet with gubernatorial candidate Tom Sawyer at tonight's University Affairs meeting.
Sawyer, the democratic candidate for governor, will speak for 10 minutes and take questions for 10 minutes beginning at 6 p.m. in the Malott Room at the Kansas Union. Afterwards, regular committee meetings will resume. The meeting is open to the public.
Tom Moore, campus director of the student legislative awareness board, said he thought Sawyer's appearance could motivate students.
"When candidates come, it makes students become more involved," he said.
Korb Maxwell, legislative director of the student legislative awareness board, hoped to see a good turnout at the meeting.

"We wanted to do this during committee meetings because we

Moore said Sawyer's speech would be informative on issues that concern students.
"Sawyer has quite a row to hoe; Graves is a very popular candidate," he said. "Having him come here will let us learn more about him and some of his stances. I'm sure many students would love to talk to him about his ideas and goals."

Woman arrested in drug lab bust
Douglas County Sheriff's officers arrested a 37-year-old Eudora woman Monday night after they found a lab used to manufacture crystal methamphetamine in her home.
Home stash found; crystal meth seized
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
The officers also confiscated six or seven grams of crystal meth, worth between $200 and $300, said Douglas County Undersheriff Kenny
Two other people were with the woman, who lives in the 900 block of Fir Street, when she was arrested. They were interviewed but not arrested, Massey said.
Massey, who was one of the two officers who made the bust, said that the other two suspects likely would face charges for involvement with the lab.
Massey.
The sheriff's office received word of the possibility of the meth lab by a phone call two weeks earlier.
When the two officers arrived at the house and knocked on the door, they were given consent to enter and search the home, Massey said.
Massey said when they entered the house, they discovered the woman in the process of making crystal meth in a lab.
"It was a very nice set-up," Massey said. "It was in one room and of no danger to the neighborhood."
The woman's 6-year-old daughter was in the house when officers arrived, but was released into the custody of family members.
This is the second time this year the woman has been arrested on methamphetamine charges. She had been previously arrested in Jackson County, Mo., on similar charges. Masse said.
Since this was her second offense
in such a short period of time, her trial most likely will be in federal court. Massey said.
Following her arrest, the woman was placed in the Douglas County Jail on charges of the manufacturing of methamphetamine, felony possession of drug paraphernalia and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.
Sherif Loren Anderson said the woman was released early yesterday afternoon until the drug analysis reports came back.
Officers also confiscated three rifles, a shotgun and a pistol from the home, but they probably will be returned, Massey said.
International council forms
Foreign students get group to represent their interests
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
After a hiatus of five years, a University of Kansas student organization that seeks to be a political voice for the KU international community is back, but with a new name.
The International Leadership Council will represent all registered international student groups on campus and all international students without national groups, said Sandra Rainero, Italy graduate student and club president.
The council also appoints an international senator, marking the first time in four years that the Student Senate position has been filled. The international senator serves as a liaison for the campus international community, the Student Senate and the University.
The group was called the International Council and was a part of the International Student Association, the largest cultural group of international students on campus. The two separated to help the council bring representation to the 1,500 international students on campus. Rainero said.
"The University is only concerned with getting our money," she said.
Rainiero cited several decisions made in recent years by the Board of Regents she said have made it harder for international students to make education viable at the University.
Changes include doing away with linear tuition, withdrawal of spousal benefits for

graduate assistants and the withdrawal of in-state tuition benefits for all out-of-state students who attended Kansas high schools.
Joe Potts, director of International Student Services, said a distinction had to be made between decisions made by the University and the Board of Regents.
"Some of the policy changes have not been made with international students in mind," he said. "One of the unfortunate results is that it affected international students."
Alessandro Montgomery-Soares, Brazil senior and international senator, has proposed a Student Senate bill to help the international groups centralize their presence.
The bill is to be voted on in the Student Senate meeting Oct. 21 and, if approved, will create a new category of student organizations called international student organizations.
All registered student organizations that belong to this category would need to send representatives to at least 75 percent of the council's meetings every semester, Montgomery-Soares said.
International student organizations then would be represented by the international senator and would have opportunities to interact with other student organizations that belong to the group, he said.
Neighborhood may be hooked up to sewer lines
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Residents of the Western Hills neighborhood may have their septic tanks replaced with city sewer lines, alleviating four decades of sanitation problems.
The Lawrence City Commission decided last night to consider a sanitary sewer benefit district for 66 lots in the neighborhood, at a Nov. 10 public hearing.
The estimated cost is $15,000 for each lot, and each property owner would be responsible for half the cost of installation and connection. The city's share of the cost would be financed with 15-year bonds.
Commissioner Bob Moody said fewer lots should be included in the benefit district because about half of the installations were estimated at less than $15,000.
"There aren't any incentives for people who can get it at a lesser rate," he said.
Property owners in the district can drop out of the program if they already have plans to connect to existing sewer lines.
Most residents in the neighborhood have septic tanks. Six tanks in Western Hills, north of 15th Street between Monterey Way and Wagonwheel Road, have failed in the past three years, raising environmental and health concerns.
Carmela Sibley, president of the Western Hills Neighborhood Association, said, "The reason why we are asking the city to pay all costs is that it would be the most economical, most logical and most straight forward way to handle it." she said.
CONGRATULATIONS!
Moody said the city shouldn't pay for the entire bill.

St. Petersburg Philharmonic to perform tonight
Internationally famous Russian orchestra to play in Lied Center
MUNICH
The St. Petersburg Philharmonic will play at 8 ontright in the Lied Center. The acclaimed Russian orchestra had to change its national schedule to perform in Lawrence tonight. Contributed art.
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Natalia Matoukhno never thought she would go to a concert at the University of Kansas performed by an orchestra from her hometown — especially because it is 4,952 miles away in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Tonight, Matoukho, senior, and 2,000 other students will have a chance to attend the St. Petersburg Philharmonic, the oldest symphony orchestra in Russia.
The concert will be held at 8 p.m. in the Lied Center.
"I was absolutely surprised," Matoukhno said. "I knew some Russian groups performed in the United States, but I never thought they would come here."
Matukhno said she lived one hour away from the St. Petersburg Philharmonic Hall, and she remembered watching the 122-member orchestra play every couple of years.
Brian Priestman, KU director of orchestral studies, said although he has known of the orchestra's work for several years, tonight it would be the first time he would see the orchestra playing live.
"It'll be a special moment for all of us to hear them playing tonight," he said. "The greatest symphonies in the world do not come through here
very often."
The St. Petersburg Philharmonic was founded in 1882 by musicians of the imperial court, initially to serve only the court and aristocratic circles.
Since that time, the orchestra has played through communism, wars and the recent economic turmoil.
The orchestra has been touring
internationally since 1946, having performed in more than 25 countries throughout Europe, North America and the Far East.
Besides making compliments to the orchestra's music and international recognition, Priestman pointed out the talent of Yuri Temirkanov, who have been appointed as the music director and principal conductor of the St. Petersburg Philharmonic this year.
"Yuri Temikanov is a very eminent conductor who has worked all over the world and has an enormous international reputation," he said.
Jacqueline Davis, director of the Lied Center, said when she heard the orchestra would be touring in the United States this year, she called several times its organizers to negotiate their first visit to Lawrence.
She said she encountered some resistance from the organizers who explained that to come to this part of the United States they would have to change their tour schedule.
Seats for tonight's performance range from $15 to $17.50 for students and $29 to $35 for public. Tickets are available at the University box offices.
Playwright's script focuses on women's concerns
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Laura Graham wanted to explore the idea of the breast and American society's behavior toward breasts.
Graham, a former KU student, wrote her sixth play with that goal in mind.
The English Alternative Theatre will perform Graham's play, "Victim Art", beginning tomorrow night at Lawrence Community Theatre, 1501 New Hampshire St.
Graham developed the script las spring while she took a directed studies course from Paul Lim associate professor of English and founder of EAT.
"I think Laura, for being 20 years old, has written a play that is very mature." Lim said.
Lim said last year as Graham developed the script, he decided he would enter the play in the American College Theatre Festival.
where it could advance through the regional contest and to the Kennedy Center ACTF contest. He also decided EAT would perform the play.
Graham said the play was about relationships. It follows a girl, Agatha, through a friendship and her betrayal by that friend. Agatha discovers a lump on her breast and must move through that experience. Graham said.
"it's about 60 percent based on real events that happened to me," she said.
Lim said the play had many levels. It examines both women's experiences with breast cancer and the male fixation with breasts, he said.
"Really and truly, I think the play is, beyond this, about the friendships amongst women," he said.
Shawn Trimble, a former KU student and cast member, said though the play was about women's experiences, anyone could enjoy it. "For me, the play is about the
unpredictability of the self and those people we encounter in our lives." he said.
Trimble said the play's strength was in its writing.
"The playwright used images and symbols and word play to write a very literate script." he said.
Lim said Graham kept the play from becoming too heavy by incorporating humor.
"Because we are examining breast culture in America, we are having fun with it." Lim said.
Rehearsals started a month ago in Bailey Hall because the Lawrence Community Theatre was occupied until this week.
Megan Dillingham, Overland Park graduate student and cast member, said the play had a wonderful script and a great cast.
Five of the six cast members are currently KU students.

"I know these people well, and it's been a really fun rehearsal process." Lim said.

KU students to participate in karaoke for charity
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
Fifteen groups of students will sing to raise money for United Way of Douglas County at Bleachers Sports Bar night.
The groups are made up of students who belong to the different living organizations involved in the the University's annual Rock Chalk Revue community service competition.
Bleachers Sports Bar, 804 W. 24th St., will hold a karaoke contest, which is the first philanthropy event for the Rock Chalk Revue advisory board this year, from 7 to 9 tonight.
"Bleachers has been really good about helping us," said Maggie Wilson, Lawrence
senior and community services coordinator for Rock Chalk Revue. "They are letting us use the facility for free." The bar, which
KARAOKE CONTEST
When: 7 to 9 tonight
Where: Bleachers Sports Bar, 804 W. 24th St
Cover: $3
The bar, which usually does not
have a cover charge on Wednesday nights, will charge $3.
Wilson said all of the money from the cover charge would be donated to United Way.
Last year's Rock Chalk Revue philanthropy event was called "Stupid Human Tricks." The amount raised last year was not available, but the year before last, the philanthropy raised $200. In total, Rock Chalk Revue raised $43,000 for United Way last year.
"We are hoping to make at least $300," Wilson said. "It's impossible to tell how many people will make it out since it's on a Wednesday."
Wilson said the advisory board would have another fund-raiser next semester, but she didn't know what it would be yet.
The karaoke contest at Bleachers will not be its first one this semester. The bar started having karaoke on Wednesday nights in the beginning of this semester.
Dannie Thompson, owner of Bleachers, said that tonight's contest would be a good way to build up the interest for karaoke night during the rest of the semester.
"It will help get the word out that we have a karaoke night or just another thing to do that isn't centered around alcohol like most other bars," Thompson said.

LAER
After several big changes, 105.9 the Lazer caps off its year broadcasting from the Big Apple
story by liz wristen ● kansan staff writer
"The new owners have been great because the day after we found out the station was going to be sold, a staff meeting was called and they passed out new contracts that assured us our jobs for another year. It could have been a nightmare, but it's been a great thing so far."
I am very happy to be here with you. I'm sure you'll enjoy the show. I hope you have a great time!

Rodger T. D. Todd, program director for the Lazer, talks on the air yesterday during his show. Rodger said the station's new owners assured their jobs were secure.
KLZR FM has been through a lot in the last 10 months. Despite a change in location, more
R change in location, more advanced technology and new ownership. 105.9 the Lazer isn't changing its tune.
Last January, the Lazer and KLWN AM 1320 moved from the one-room broadcast site at 3035 Iowa St. to a two-story complex at 3125 W. Sixth St.
Rodger T. Dodger, program director for the Lazer, said he thought the move was an important step in the continued success of the station.
"It was definitely for the better," Dodger said. "I think that in a lot of ways, the move has been one of the smartest ideas we have had in years. The location on Iowa grew to become a commercial business district, and as a small business, we were getting commercially taxed because of our location. It was getting very costly."
The new location on Sixth Street has brought about many changes for the station. Dodger said. Not only has the new location provided more office space for the Lazer and KLWN AM, but it has enabled the station to have about $10,000 worth of computer equipment installed. Dodger said the technological advancements at the new location were beyond state-of-the-art.
"It's like we went from a manual typewriter to the Starship Enterprise." Dodger said. "We went from the very bottom to the very top and skipped everything in between."
Lawrence Broadcasters Inc., owned by Arden Booth, retains the rights to the station's building on Sixth Street, though it no longer owns the stations.
The station also underwent new ownership as of Sept.1. The station, along with KLWN AM, had been owned by Lawrence Broadcasters, Inc., since 1951 but were sold to Zimmer Broadcasting of Cape Girardeau, Mo., last month.
ho longer. John Zimmer, vice president of Zimmer Broadcasting, said the company had been researching the two Lawrence stations for the past few years. Zimmer Broadcasting owns 31 radio stations, primarily in university towns across the Midwest, Zimmer said. This includes stations in Columbia, Mo., Joplin, Mo., and Carbon-dale, Ill.
"We chose to purchase them because they are both great stations," Zimmer said. "We also realized how great the community of Lawrence is."
Dodger said the new ownership did not create job concerns for station employees.
for another year. It could have been a nightmare, but it's been a great thing so far."
"I think it was one of the best things they could do for the station," Dodger said. "And the new owners have been great because the day after we found out the station was going to be sold, a staff meeting was called and they passed out new contracts that assured us our jobs
Hank Booth, general manager for the radio stations and son of Arden Booth, said he was pleased with the changes that had been made during the last year. He was relieved that when the Lawrence stations were bought, they were not moved to Kansas City or Topeka locations.
Though the Lazer has new financial backers, Booth said the station would continue to broadcast the same format.
"This is a very young community of which the median age is 21 years," Hank Booth said. "Radio is a very volatile business in terms of ownership and programming, and I think it was a good corporate move for us. My father put the AM station on the radio in 1951. We've been here 47 years and we plan to be around many more."
These changes are not the only aspects of radio life that have kept the station pre occupied.
An article in Rolling Stone magazine last spring ranked the Lazer as one of the top 10 radio stations in the nation. This led to an invitation from the museum for the station to broadcast a few sets live Nov. 5 and 6 in the Big Apple.
next month, the Lazer will be taking a trip to New York to broadcast live from the Museum of Television and Radio.

"I think we're going to have a great
time," Dogger said. "We are even taking some listeners with us, which is kind of like a thank-you to them for supporting the station."

Basketball recruits rank near top
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Friday night is Late Night with Roy Williams, and there will be no high school seniors at the festivities looking for available scholarships.
The Kansas men's basketball team has filled its three available scholarships with verbal commitments from players some consider one of the best recruiting classes in the nation.
Recruiting analyst Brick Oettinger, of Prepstar magazine, said Kansas had a good class.
"The best ones nationally are Kentucky and Duke at this point." Oettinger said. "Kentucky and Duke already have outstanding classes. After that Kansas compares well."
kentucky, the defending national champion, has received verbal commitments from Keith Bogans, Marvin Stone and John Stewart, and likely will sign one more top-25 recruit before next spring.
Bogans, 6-foot-4 from Hyattsville.
md., is ranked the top shooting guard by Prepstar; Stone, 6-10 from Huntsville, Ala., is ranked the top center by Prepstar; and Stewart, 7-1 from Indianapolis, is the 12th-ranked center, according to Prepstar.
Duke has firm commitments from center Casey Sanders and point guards Jason Williams and Nick Horvath. The Blue Devils also still are involved in recruiting top-25 prospects Mike Dunnelly and Carlos Bover.
Prepstar ranks Sanders, 6-1 from Tampa Bay, Fla., as the second-best center; Williams, 6-1 from Metuchen, N.J., as the No. 18 point guard; and Horvath, 6-10 from Arden Hills, Minn., as the No. 9 power forward.
Nick Collison, 6-9 from Iowa City, Iowa, leads the Kansas group as the second-ranked player in the nation, according to recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons. Oettinger has Collision ranked significantly lower but still considers him a good player.
Fellow Iowan Kirk Hinrich, 6-3
from Sioux City, is considered a good player by many but is not on many recruiting analyst's top-100 lists.
"When I saw him play he was good but not great." Oettinger said. "Collison and he played together on the Barton Brothers' Select team out of Iowa. They played in an AAU 19-and under tournament in north Virginia. They surprised some people by going all the way to the finals. It's pretty doggone good to go that far. Collison was the main man and Hinrich was No. 2."
California recruit Drew Gooden is thought highly of on the recruiting circuit as well. Oettinger said Gooden, 6-11 from El Cerrito, Calif., was more athletic and more likely to play center for the Jayhawks than Collision, who is a power forward.
"He's one of the run-and-jump athletes who really stands out," Oettinger said. "He really enhanced his standing this summer at the Adidas ABCD camp. Gooden was the star of the best team, which was unbeaten.
He was the leading scorer and leading rebounder on the team that won the tournament."
Greg Swaim, a recruiting analyst for Midwest Wasketball, considers the Kansas recruiting class to be one of the top five in the nation.
Schools like Kansas, Kentucky and Duke are able to get good recruiting classes year after year because they are traditional basketball powerhouses, Swaim said.
"Coach Williams and staff are so straight forward," he said. "They don't have to paint a rosier picture at Kansas because all they have to do is take them to a basketball game at Phog Allen Field House."
Because of the tradition at Kansas, this year's recruiting class does not stand out compared to past classes.
"Kansas has had plenty of good recruiting classes. As good as these guys are, I wouldn't take them over (Raef) LaFrentz or (Paul) Pierce." Oetting said. "By their standard at Kansas, I'd say it's not super outstanding, it's just standard, par for the course."

Kansas soccer takes tiring Oklahoma trip
By Brad Hallier
COLUMBIA
Kansan sportswriter
On the road with 21 wild soccer players.
On the road with 21 who soccer players.
This weekend, I ventured to Stillwater and Norman, Okla., with the women's soccer team for three matches in four days. Ever wondered what's it's like on the road with NCAA Division-I athletes?
Talk about red-carpet treatment — which I received as well.
My own weekend got off to a horrible start when my ride to the bus never showed. Carrying two heavy bags and a camera case, I ran from my apartment at 24th and Alabama streets to the Burge Union.
We were on the Kansas Turnpike, heading for Stillwater. Movie No. 1, So I Married an Axe Murderer; was about to begin on the screens in the bus.
The soccer team strikes a crazy pose for a picture. Kansas sport writer, Brad Hallier, spent four days with the team last weekend for their three game streak in Norman, OKla. Photo by Graham Johnson/KANSAN
After a pit sit at a turnipke rest area, movie No. 2,
Spaceballs, began.
The team left at 6:38 p.m. sharp on Thursday from the Burge for a Friday night match at Oklahoma State.
The next morning, after a complimentary continental breakfast in the lobby, the team had a light workout at the OSU game field from 10 to 11 a.m.
We arrived at 11:30 p.m. at the Stillwater Fairfield Inn.
After a one hour study time from 12-1 p.m. in the hotel we had lunch at Applebee's.
I lost my receipt for the meal. I now out $5.60.
The team prepared for its match in the locker room at Gallagher Iba Arena at 5:15 p.m.
The match began at 7 p.m., and after two hours of bruising the soccer, the match ended t1-1.
We will be flying the Midfielder Lindsey Loeffler's dad is the owner, and trainer Robin Johnson almost ate one of his two-pound Super Atomic Burritos.

or diving soccer, the Hawks wear a white dress. We ate dinner at Atomic Burrito after the match.
The post-dinner ride to Norman on Friday featured movie No. 3, Good Will Hunting.
I ate a light breakfast Saturday because I planned to practice with the team in its training session at Oklahoma.
Although the workout was only a walk through of tactics and a game of handball, I felt like I needed some oxygen.
After dinner, forward Jen Silvers, forward Lindsey Kennedy and I dominated Johnson, midfielder Melissa Downing and goalkeeper Katie Garrity in basketball 10-8. In other games, assistant coach Kevin Blokker was the spitting image of Greg Ostertag as he blocked and dunked shots.
A long day of football on the tube followed. Loefler's family made and served dinner for the team at their house.
Back at the hotel I watched A Perfect Murder on pay-per-view television with goalkeeper Jen Cecke, midfielder Johanna Larsson and forward Natalie Hoegel.
The team lost to the Sooners 3-0 on Sunday. The ride back to the hotel surprisingly was silent, given this wild bunch.
After dinner, the team had individual meetings with Magner, and I interviewed midfielder Katie Lents in the lobby. Between 10 and 11 p.m., the upper-
classmen held a meeting. I wasn't there, so I talked to Hoogveld for an hour, while watching Original Gangsters on Showtime.
A fatigued bunch of Jayhawks battled Texas Tech on Monday. They lost 1-0.
We ate Papa John's pizza on the way back to Lawrence. After an hour and a half of studying, test taking and paper writing, the team watched its final flick. G.I.Jane.
We arrived at 11:30 Monday night in Lawrence.
Life as an athlete at this level is about keeping schedules and getting free meals.
It may sound like the easy life, but trust me, none of the students have it easy during season. Studying on the road is tough when you have to prepare for games, but I'm convinced the soccer team has it all down pat.
One request coach: If I practice with your bunch again, tell me to get in shape first!!
Commentary
'Late Night'in foul trouble for misnaming the production
The problem with Late Night with Roy Williams, scheduled this year for Friday night, is the name.
Since coach Williams arrived on campus, the late night soirée, where basketball players dance, act, talk and scrimmage, has been named after the coach.
schlintage, has been named the best. But the name is inaccurate because Williams rarely does anything at the event. The name also is unfair to women's coach Marian Washington.
williams never speaks at Late Night. He sits in his chair, laughs at the men's and women's basketball players jokes and eventually gets jiggy by dancing a step or two in the boogie circle that always forms.
That's all he does. In fact, Williams consistently has said he doesn't get too involved because the night is for the players. It is their chance to play to the crowd and get recognition from the fans. Williams doesn't want to overshadow them. It's an admirable reason.
PETER MICHAEL
But if Williams truly wants to take the attention off himself, then he should change the name of the event. Take off the with Roy Williams and call it Late Night, Late Night with Kansas basketball or I can't believe we stayed up until 1 a.m. for this. Call it whatever, but take Williams' name off it.
Spencer Duncan
T-shirts sold at Late Night usually have Williams' face on them, the title Late Night with Roy Williams is bolded, in large, colored type on the shirts. Flyers, programs and newspapers all use the name of the event: Late night with Roy Williams. The mere fact the Late Night party uses Williams' name means it is impossible for the coach to slip into the background.
It is disrespectful, especially since Washington has been at the University 15 years longer than Williams, and last season it was the women who overachieved by making it to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. It was the men who underachieved by losing to Rhode Island in the second round.
For that to happen the name must be changed.
But that to support the claim
But there is more to it than that.
Late Night mistakenly is associated with only the men's basketball team. Lost in the shuffle is the women's basketball team and Washington.
It's a shame because Late Night is supposed to represent the start of both men's and women's basketball seasons, not just the men's. Yet, because it is titled with Roy Williams. Washington and her team get kicked aside.
The name needs to be changed, and that only will happen if Williams is willing to give it up. Hopefully, at some point he will consider it.
After all, If Late Night truly is about the players, then Williams shouldn't mind having his name removed.
If the athletics department really wants more women's basketball fans, as it claims it does, then isolating the women this way is a poor way to go about attracting people.
Duncan is an Topeka senior in journalism and English.
Of course, the name makes sense when it comes to marketing. Roy Williams' name attracts fans. If it were called Late Night with the volleyball team and some basketball players, less people likely will go.

You are drawing lots of attention right now, because you are putting on a magnificent performance. You are finding an alignment with your own true destiny, and revealing talents you have long hidden. There is lots more talent where that came from, and today that will be obvious to everyone.
Virago (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.

If you are in business for yourself, which you should be,

enough to be painful, but it could start a buying frenzy.
Haggling will not be much fun, though. It will be too easy
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
A stubborn, obnoxious, opinionated person could be your best friend today. You may be able to get him or her to do something you would rather not. This person might even like the awful chore. That frees up more of your time for study and other lofty pursuits. This could work. Give it a try
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.

Assistants dig coaching gig
Love of volleyball prompted decision to remain involved
by Laura Bokenkroger Kansan sportswriter
Jan Madlock and Jill Jones are Kansas assistive volleyball coaches because it enables them to remain a part of the game they love.
Coaching was the perfect answer.
Both Madlock and Jones said they were not ready to quit volleyball completely after finishing their collegiate careers.
Madlock discovered her love for volleyball as a senior in high school. Although she was only recruited to play basketball and softball at the college level, the Maywood, Ill., native searched for a place on a volleyball team.
Despite her late start in the sport, with determination, she walked on at Illinois State as a freshman. By the time she was a senior, she had worked her way into the starting lineup, and was selected team captain.
"I never played in the off season in high school because I didn't want
to give up other sports," Madlock said. "But I really fell in love with volleyball in the summer before my senior year when I discovered the
strategic parts of the game."
of the game." It was the strategy that enticed Madlock to coach.
"I started coaching summer camps at Illinois State, and when I was a junior, I realized this was what I wanted to do," she said.
1980
Jones: Began as an assistant with now-KU coach Bechard.
Madlock began her coaching career at her alma mater where she served as an assistant for two years. She also coached at Iowa before coming to the University in 1996.
Unlike Madlock, Jones said that she had been planning on coaching all along.
"When I was younger, I thought you had to teach to be able to coach so everything I did was going toward an English education degree," Jones said.
Jones, who went to high school in Goodland, received a scholarship to the University of Wyoming. She was selected captain as a junior and led the team in digs, aces and kills as a senior.
Jones said that her senior year was more painful than enjoyable. She had reconstructive surgery on her shoulder, and later on her knee, and knew that physically she could not continue to play.
"In my fifth year of playing volleyball I started thinking that it would be great to be an assistant coach
somewhere and work on my masters in education," Jones said.
After graduating in 1996.
Jones took an assitant coaching position at Barton County Community College under then coach Ray Shear
chose to come with him when he moved to Kansas.
Bechard, who first met Jones at his satellite volleyball camp when
she was 14 years old, recruited her out of high school. Although she chose to play at Wyoming, she helped him coach summer camps.
Beachard's coaching style also has also impressed Madlock, who said she has seen a remarkable difference in this year's team.
"I completely respect him as a coach and a person," Jones said. "I admire his ability to motivate his players and make each girl compete to her highest level."
"When he first got here, I admired his ability to bring the players together," Madlock said. "He talks a lot about our core covenant and what we stand for. He does a good job making the players feel like they're a part of something that is bigger than themselves. That is something I want to take with me if I coach somewhere else."
"We also look at the personality a player has on the court," Madlock said. "We like players that give out positive energy and get excited for what they accomplish. Coachability and the potential to improve are also factors we consider."
As the recruiting coordinator, Madlock said that she looks for quickness, agility and jumping ability when she evaluates high school players. It takes more than that to be a college athlete though, she said.
Hutchinson knocks Derby from top spot
TOPEKA, Kan. — Long downtraden Hutchinson scored its biggest victory of this decade last week, knocking Derby out of the No. 1 spot in Class 6A and elevating itself into the No. 4 position in this week's Associated Press consensus high school football rankings.
The Associated Press
The Salt Hawks drubbed Derby, 33-14, for their fifth victory in six games to move into the rankings for the first time since the 1980s.
Kansas high school teams begin district play this week, with each playing three teams within its own district to determine who qualifies for the playoffs.
Hutchinson, which hasn't had a winning season since 1990 and hasn't made the playoffs since 1989, broke a 26-game loss streak in its
1997 opener and has become a power to be reckoned with this year.
Derby, which had won its first five games and held the No. 1 ranking for a month, tumbled to No. 5 in this week's 6A rankings. Wichita Northwest, a 39-6 victory against Wichita East moved up from fifth to second and Olathe South, a 21-13 winner against Lawrence, took third.
Garden City got pummeled by Kansas City Rockhurst, 45-6, and fell out of the 6A ratings.
The 5A rankings remained unchanged, with Liberal holding the top rung after beating Great Bend, 40-22; Stilwell-Blue Valley keeping second with a 29-28 win against Blue Valley North, and Fort Scott remaining third with a 6-0 win against Spring Hill.
In 4A, Topeka Hayden stayed at
the head of the team with a 49-18 triumph against Topeka Highland Park, and Sabeth remain second by beating Nemaha Valley, 7-6. Pratt kept third with a 35-24 win against Thomas More Prep of Hays
AP consensus rankings are an average of ratings by the Hutchinson News, Salina Journal, Topeka Capital Journal and Wichita Eagle.
Here are the AP consensus rankings after six weeks:

Commentary
U.S. soccer needs to change rules to be competitive
An important change may happen soon in American soccer. No, it's not the upcoming appointment of Bruce Arena as national team head coach. That pales in comparison.
Instead, the U.S. soccer community is collectively asking itself an important question: "How are our players developed, and is this the right way to go about it?"
The answer will determine the direction of soccer player development in this country, and with it, the future of the game here.
While the failure of the U.S. team at the World Cup was certainly indicative of flaws in our national coaching systems, the lack of U.S. success in the Olympics (essentially the world under-23 championships) and in last year's under-20 World Championships, despite having squads with plenty of ability, is far more instructive in allowing us to pinpoint American problems in player development.
Those teams were sent up against teams made up of full-time professionals like lambs to the slaughter. That they acquitted themselves reasonably well, while attaining no real success, is to their credit.
When a typical top-notch American
soccer player is 21, he is completing his senior year of college, having played four years under the inordinately short and restricted NCAA schedule and regulations.
Ronaldo, two-time FIFA World Player of the Year, turned 22 three weeks ago, and is currently in his eighth professional season. Michael Owen, were he American, would be a freshman in college with rules as to how much he could practice.
Even among Americans, there is a

decided difference between those who follow the college path and those who go to Europe for training, like John O'Brien, who came up through the Ajax (Amsterdam) youth system.
Soccer players, with the exceptions of defenders and goalkeepers, should be in the prime of their careers at a younger

age than the traditional American system allows them to be.
The roots of this situation are complex, but it boils down to the United States, until 1996, being without a professional outdoor soccer league; thus, college soccer was an end unto itself rather than the professional development program that college basketball and football have become.
This type of thinking should not be alien to the American sports fan. Comparison can best be made with baseball, and the point driven home for Americans unfamiliar with the rest of the world's club system.
Baseball, like soccer, relies more on skill than on physical factors (look at David Wells, for Pete's sake) Professional baseball teams understand that young players need intensified instruction to allow their potential its full expression. After all, only recently have college baseball players made a consistent impact in the big leagues.
To this day, the big leagues rely on their own coaching and development systems rather than those of the amateur high school and college coaches; the best examples of this in the modern day are the Latin American "academies" run by the big-league clubs that resemble noth-

ing so much as the international soccer club structure.
After years of trying to develop players through centralized coaching structures and player selection systems like the Olympic Development Program, U.S. soccer is beginning to understand that success will come from professional teams developing players rather than having to remail 22-year-olds.
To this end, the Major League Soccer has started "Project 40", in which players who wish to bypass all or the remainder of their collegiate careers can do so, signing a contract with the league and receiving $40,000 to spend on their future education should they choose to continue their education.
Already, two high school players (the Wizards' Nino DaSilva and Jamar Beasley of the Revolution) have elected to come to the Major League Soccer
straight out of high school.
Several other key figures left college early, like DC United's Ben Olsen and Wizards defender (and Olathe East grad) Scott Vermillion. The trend seems to be accelerating, and I'm sure we'll see several more underclassmen sign on with the league after this college season
The U.S. Soccer Federation itself is trying to remake its development programs, and commissioned a report from noted youth development expert Carlos Queiroz of Portugal. Not surprisingly, Queiroz advocated the professionalization of American youth soccer development.
This line of thinking is becoming more and more prevalent. In fact, a *Home Improvement* episode is supposedly about the oldest son trying to convince his parents to let him play professional soccer instead of going to college (the actor, Zachary Ty Bryan, is in fact a toprate youth player in California).
While the advantages of earning an education are indisputable, the current system is inadequate in terms of player development. Only by changing the system, giving non-college options more credibility, will U.S. soccer ever compete with "the big boys".

Cancellations make history
NBA drops games; lockout continues
The Associated Press
NEWYORK-For the first time in its history, the NBA canceled regular season games because of a work stoppage yesterday when talks between owners and players broke off after about 31/2 hours.
The games during the first two weeks of the season, Nov. 3-16, will not be played or made up, deputy commissioner Russ Granik said. With that, the NBA's 51-year streak of 35,001 consecutive games came to an end.
The league had been the only major professional sport that never had canceled a game because of a labor dispute. The players and owners are arguing about issues, such as rising salaries.
The next move will come from the owners, who will deliver a counterproposal later this week.
"It doesn't look promising," commissioner David Stern said. "The reality is that the owners had no choice."
Stern and Granik made the announcement
late in the afternoon after the sides met for two sessions.
The players made a counterproposal in the morning session, addressing the owners' concern for cost certainty, putting an absolute ceiling on the amount of money that can be devoted to paywall, by asking for
a luxury tax that would be paid by owners who sign players to exorbitant contracts.
NBA
Stern said the idea of a tax was something the owners would look at, but by itself was not enough to stop the league from canceling games.
"We had a somewhat more constructive dialogue, but it's hard to say if we got closer to an agreement." Granik said. "We
promised to come back with our own set of proposals."
The owners imposed the lockout July 1, and the sides have met three times for formal bargaining sessions, including yesterday.
Patrick Ewing, Dikteme Mutombo, Ray Allen, Antonio Davis and John Starks were
among the players who attended the meeting. The owners were represented by Gordon Gund (Cleveland), Les Alexander (Houston), Abe Pollin (Washington), David Checkets (New York) and Jerry Colangelo (Phoenix).
"We're going to try to step up and talk about the issues they've raised," union director Billy Hunter said.
The season was scheduled to begin Nov. 3, but could conceivably have been pushed back a week or so to give teams about four weeks to make trades, sign about 200 free agents and hold abbreviated training camps.
In the last labor agreement in 1995, the owners agreed to pay the players between 48 percent and 51.8 percent of revenues. If the percentage went higher, and owners claim it reached 57 percent last season, the owners had the right to toss out the old deal and seek a new one.
The owners have demanded cost certainty from the players. The union calls such a system a hard salary cap and vowed not to accept one.
"The players have to participate in some deal that lowers the percentage of revenues being paid to salaries," Granik said. "But they don't see that as their responsibility at all.
Medical panel: Tyson is 'fit' to fight
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson was extremely depressed at the time he bit Evander Holyfield's ears and is unlikely to commit such an act again, a medical panel said in a report that finds he is "fit" to return to the ring.
Tyson said he was feeling betrayed by "people I would have died for" leading up to the June 1997 title fight against Holyfield, according to the psychiatric report released yesterday by the state attorney general's office.
The report, by a team of doctors who examined the former heavyweight champion last month, portrays him as lacking in self-esteem and depressed to the point that he took antidepressant drugs in the months following the Holyfield fight.
The report was ordered by the Nevada Athletic Commission as a requirement for Tyson in his attempt to regain his license, which he lost for biting Holyfield. The commission meets Monday to consider the request.
The report says Tyson has a "constellation of neurobehavioral deficits" that includes problems with attention span, memory, reading, spelling and impulse control."
One doctor speculated that Tyson, who said he never lost consciousness in the ring but did several times after beatings as a child, may have residual attention-deficit disorder.
Tyson told the doctors he was not suicidal but has had feelings of sadness, hopelessness and helplessness all his life.
He was alternately engaging and hostile during the five days of exams. Two of the doctors treating him said he snapped in anger at them in separate instances, expressing a wish to harm one of them at one point.
"It was this evaluator's clinical impression that this incident did not reflect Mr. Tyson's intent to intimidate but rather that it was an expression of a fantasy in reaction to the frustration of this evaluation," Dr. Jeremy D. Schmahmann wrote.
The report did not say whom Tyson was angry at before the Holyfield fight, but he later had a bitter split with promoter Don King and his managers, John Horne and Rory Holloway, claiming they stole millions of dollars from him.
POLYESTER
The team of six doctors, which examined Tyson at Massachusetts General Hospital
in Boston, found that he was fit to fight again and not likely to bite another opponent.
The report said Tyson felt embarrassed and humiliated by having to undergo five days of testing and was concerned that people would think he was "psycho."
"I have no self-esteem, but the biggest ego in the world," Tyson said.
The report recommends that Tyson undergo psychotherapy and that his problems with depression and self-esteem can be treated without any further medication. The report said he had been taking the antidepressants after the Holyfield fight and for the last month, but stopped because it made him lose his urge to fight.
"It is the opinion of the evaluation team that Mr. Tyson is mentally fit to return to boxing, to comply with the rules and regulations, and to do so without repetition of June 28, 1997," the report said.
"While we take note of the impulsivity, emotional problems and cognitive problems outlined above, it is our opinion that none of these, alone or in combination, render Mr. Tyson mentally unfit in this regard."
The commission will meet Monday to determine whether to relicense Tyson. If Tyson is denied a license, he will have to wait another year to be able to return to the ring.
Tyson and his wife, Monica, had fought to keep the report private, arguing that only members of the commission needed to know the state of the inner workings of the former champion's mind. But after a state Supreme Court ruling Monday that favored the release of the reports, he signed a waiver agreeing to make them public.
Tyson issued a statement saying he didn't want to release the reports but that his main goal is getting back into the ring.
"On numerous occasions I have apologized for my actions in the ring vs. Evander Holyfield," Tyson said. "I am willing to do whatever the Nevada Athletic Commission wants me to do in order to regain my license to fight."
Nebraska loses yards after Oklahoma State and Texas A&M games
LINCOLN, Neb. — After Nebraska rushed for 434 yards against Washington on Sept. 26, the Cornhuskers followed with rushing attacks of 73 and 141 yards against Oklahoma State and Texas A&M, respectively.
The Associated Press
Those aren't exactly heady numbers — especially for Nebraska (5-1, 1-1), a program synonymous with big rushing totals and the team that led the country last year with 392.6 points per game.
Still, coach Frank Solich yesterday affirmed the team's devotion to the run for Saturday's game against Kansas (24.0, 4).
N Tucker
"We are not about to abandon the ground
game." Solich said. "We will continue to work at getting better on the ground game and try to develop our power game a little bit more."
If there's a silver lining for Nebraska, the Kansas defense ranks last in the Big 12 against the run, allowing 219 yards per game.
But as is typical in Lincoln, the Huskers—averaging 237.8 rushing yards per game are concerned more with themselves than their opponent.
Center Josh Heskew said Nebraska lacked
focus in the last two weeks, something he said contributed to Texas A&M's 28-21 victory last weekend — a loss that ended a 19-game winning streak.
"We didn't look as aggressive as we needed to be, not as aggressive as Nebraska-style football," Heskew said. "We were not out there knocking people around."
Running back DeAngelo Evans returned from a knee injury to gain 146 yards in the 55-7 win over Washington. Since then, Evans had 41 rushing yards against Oklahoma State and 32 yards at Texas A&M.
"There's a lot of problems right now with our running game," Evans said. "I think coach said we ran 19 options Saturday, and that's way more than we wanted to run. Our inside running hasn't been there."
The Cowboys and Aggies stopped the run by stacking extra defenders in the two-yard zone near the line, making sure each of their men knew which Husker to stop.
Solich said Nebraska's running lanes were clogged because both defenses simply executed better. The only way to counter that, he said, is for the Huskers to block better.
"We've had some opportunities to have big-play potential. It's been more us than anything that's kept that from happening." Solich said.
A&M's Toombs booms best rushing game of young career
The Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas — It turns out Ja'Mar Toombs and D Andre "Tiki" Hardeman have more in common than apostrophes.
When Hardeman was declared academically ineligible after the first game, the No. 10 Texas A&M Aggies wondered where they could find another bruising blocker and occasional ball carrier of similar skills.
Toombs, a true freshman from Kilgore, Texas, showed up with the biggest game of his career in their 28-21 victory against Nebraska Saturday.
But he's never had such a game before a crowd like Saturday's 60,798 fans in Kyle Field. The fans even came up with a cheer for their new hero, dragging out his name to "Toooombs."
"It's exciting, but back in high school I got a lot of press time too, so that doesn't phase me any more." Toombs said. "I've had lots of calls from home telling me that I did good."
The 5-foot-10, 240-pound Hardeman was a steady, dependable blocker for halfback Dante Hall. Toombs brought more size -6-1, 260 — and an added offensive punch to the Aggies' offense, which had struggled all season.
The Aggies pulled off the upset and Toombs
Before Saturday's game, Tooms had nine carries for 23 yards in his brief college career.
had 110 yards on 10 carries and his first collegiate touchdown.
"He gives us an added dimension," offensive coordinator Steve Krughorpe said. "He's done a good job learning the offense and we've been able to expand his role. It was a significant contribution that added a lot to his confidence." Toombs is surprised at his sudden fame.
"I expected to play a little bit this year in relief of Tiki if he got tired or injured or in our jumbo set (short yardage) but I didn't expect to be a factor." Toomssa said.
That changed quickly in the second quarter against then No. 2 ranked Nebraska when Toombs bolted 71 yards to the Cornhusker 1-yard line, setting Hall's touchdown dive and a 14-7 A&M lead.
Toombs didn't want to get into the lime-light at the expense of Hardeman, who was declared ineligible because of a clerical error but is back in class and hoping to be reinstated for next season.
"I didn't know what to think," Tooms said. "It looked like a long way to the goalline and the more I ran, the farther away the goal seemed to get."
"The beauty is that the journey doesn't end once the dancers leave the stage — If continues in the mind and memory."

Atlanta Braves halfway to playoffs
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO - The Atlanta Braves beat Kevin Brown in an unexpected situation, and now they are halfway to playoff history.
No team has ever trailed 3-0 in a seven-game series and come back to win. In fact, no team has forced even a sixth game after falling behind 3-0.
Then again, there has never been another team quite like these Braves.
San Diego was five outsees away from its first World Series in 14 years when Atlanta wrecked the Padres' strategy of bringing on Brown, who built a reputation as a Braves killer. Michael Tucker hit a go-ahead, three-run homer that sent Atlanta to a 7-6 win
Monday night in Game 5 of the National League championship series
The Braves are heading back home trailing 3-2 and ready to roll out Tom Glavine and Greg Maddux in an attempt to get to their fifth World Series this decade.
The move by Padres' manager Bruce Bocy looked good in the seventh inning when Brown came on with a 4-2 lead and retired the side.
"This is big for us," Tucker said.
"We got two games, and we're taking it back to Atlanta."
But in the eighth, Brown didn't look nearly as sharp as he did when he won Game 2 3-0 with a three-hitter Thursday night in Atlanta. He walked Ryan Klesko leading off the
eight, and Javy Lopez reached on an infield single. With one out, Tucker lined a 3-2 pitch over the right-field fence to give Atlanta a 5-4 lead.
"The feeling in the dugout was that we were going to get him," Tucker said. "He really didn't have that extra giddy-up you really want to have."
run rally in the eighth that made it 7-4. After Tucker's homer, Donne Wall relieved and walked winning pitcher John Rocker, who slid in ahead of the throw on a two-out double. Graffanino took third on the throw home and scored on a throwing error.
Brown, 6-0 with a 1.85 ERA in his previous eight starts against Atlanta, was the loser in just his third career relief appearance.
Padres' Ken Caminiti and John Vander Wal hit two-in, two-run homers off John Smoltz. Caminiti's homer came in the first inning for a 2-0 lead and Vander Wal's in the sixth for a 4-2 edge. Tucker singled in the Braves 'first two runs in the fourth and six innings.
The Braves might have to beat Brown one more time in the series. He had been scheduled to pitch Game 6 tonight against Glavine, and Bochy planned to decide today whether Brown or Sterling Hitchcock will pitch.
Tucker's homer highlighted a five
Smoltz allowed four runs and nine hits in 6/23 innings, struck out eight and walked one. Ashby gave up two runs and nine hits in six innings.
Infamous ball makes big hit in St. Louis
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Two weeks after Mark McGwire hit his 70 home run, the record-breaking ball landed in the St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame for public display.
The hall opened its doors Monday with home run ball on display behind a glass case.
day's end, 228 people had visited the exhibit in the International Bowling Museum and Hall of Fame near Busch Stadium. The museum usually draws about 45 people a day during a weekday in the off-season.
"When people walk in, they go straight to the ball," said James Baer, marketing director for the bowl!
HILTON
McGwire: Home-run ball goes on display in St. Louis
museum. "It's kind of neat to see people get family pictures taken around it."
The ball is on temporary loan to the museum from Phil Ozersky, 26, a laboratory researcher who caught it at Busch Stadium
on Sept. 27. It could be on display for two weeks or for more than a month — it's all up to Ozersky.
Paula Homan, the curator of the museum, said fan reaction to the exhibit was just the most recent example of how St. Louisans have embraced all things McGwire this year.
"I think that there's really a sense of fan ownership, that the fans are sharing this moment," Homan said. "And just having the motivation to come see a baseball — a baseball that just looks like a baseball — shows the investment that fans have made in this."
In addition to the ball, the museum features the Busch Stadium home plate from Sept. 27; a McGwire Cardinals jersey and a 1984 McGwire U.S. Olympic jersey; several McGwire bats; a McGwire first baseman's mitt; and numerous photographs of McGwire.
Gerald Baltz, executive director, didn't hesitate to credit McGwire for a boost in interest at the museum throughout this year.
For example, the crowds McGwire drew at the ball park late in the baseball season helped boost attendance about 20 percent in August and September, compared with the same period in 1997.
Royals stadium to be renovated by next season
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Some Kansas City Royals fans will be able to watch a game on the field while eating at an upscale restaurant at Kauffman Stadium next season.
The team announced yesterday $11 million in renovations that will include 160 on-field seats, four field-level suites, the restaurant, expansion and renovation of the clubhouses and players' facilities and replacing 23,000 seats in the lower seating area. The renovations will be finished when the Royals open play next season, April 5, against the Boston Red Sox, said Art Chaudry, the Royals senior vice president of business operations and administration.
Chaudry said the 160 field-level seats, known as Crown Seats, will be 50 feet from home plate, spanning from dugout to dugout. The seats can be purchased only for the season, at a cost of $8.10 each.
He said fans in those seats will have access to the Crown Club, which will be behind home plate underneath the field box seating area.
Chaudry also said four on-field suites at the dugout level will accommodate between 16 and 30 guests. Two will be on the first-base side and two on the third-base side. The suites will be sold on an individual game basis.
The current process of finding a new owner for the Royals will not affect the renovation plans. The Sports Authority, the Jackson County-owned stadium complex landlord, agreed to pay for the $11 million project after deleting 16 previously planned improvements.

Budget players nearing agreement
Republicans, Democrats bargain on school spending, other issues
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Their differences dwindling, White House and congressional budget bargainers yesterday said they were nearing agreement on school spending and other issues snarling a massive $500 billion bill for the new fiscal year.
White House chief of staff Erskine Bowls met most of the day with Republican leaders, including a two-hour evening session with top lawmakers from both parties that focused on education. Bowls said progress had been made and he would return to the Capitol this morning for more discussions.
Bowls said he thought there was a good chance to get things done today.
House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., also said an agreement could be imminent "if everything works right."
Though Republicans were ready to provide the $1.1 billion President Clinton was demanding to reduce grade-school class sizes, the two sides have been fighting about key details. Clinton wanted the money specifically set aside for hiring 100,000 teachers; Republicans wanted local officials to choose how to spend it and wanted money set aside for special education teachers.
In separate meetings among top House Republicans and Ddemo-
crats, leaders of each party said Clinton probably would not achieve his demand for about $1 billion a year to help local governments build and repair schools, said one participant in each meeting who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Democrats also wanted to require most federal workers' health plans to cover prescription contraceptives, but Republicans
wanted to let insurers out if they had moral objections. And Clinton — joined by Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle, D-S.D. — was continuing on billions of dollars more for farmers reeling from
PETER J. NORDY
Gingrich: Expects budget agreement to be made soon.
plummeting crop prices.
With the Nov. 3 congressional elections approaching, Republicans clearly were aching to get back to their districts to defend their House and Senate majorities.
"It's time to get back and campaign," said Rep John Linder, RGa., chairman of the House GOP's campaign committee.
With Clinton spending a fourth
straight day calling for more education spending. Democrats were happy to be seen as fighting in Washington on behalf of schoolchildren.
"It's important people understand what Democrats are for," said Rep. Martin Frost, D-Texas, leader of the House Democrats' campaign committee.
As a deal seemed to draw near, lawmakers from both parties nervously searched for wins and losses in a package that seemed likely to give Clinton most of the extra spending he had wanted and triumphs for both sides on policy disputes.
Democrats said they were worried that administration bargainers would settle for less than Clinton was demanding for teachers, school construction and family planning. They also were unhappy with a deal between the administration and GOP negotiators that would, in effect, lay aside for six months the fight about whether scientific sampling would be used in the 2000 census.
"We are not in agreement yet with any arrangement or any bill," cautioned House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, D-Mo. "There is not a bill yet."
At a GOP leadership meeting, House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., asked his colleagues for support for a measure he said would contain victories for both sides, said Rep. David McIntosh, R-Ind.
"Earlier this week, I wasn't optimistic we'd win on many issues but now we'll truly up for grabs," said McIntosh, a conservative leader.
Representative Snowbarger rallies for Congress to finish debate about federal budget
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Members of Congress are working overtime to reach an agreement on the federal budget. One congressman, U.S.R. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., is losing valuable campaign time in the process.
Despite his heated re-election race with Democrat Dennis Moore, Snowbarger is adamant that his work in Washington is more important to him than campaigning.
In a statement issued yesterday, Snowbarger said he sent letters to President Bill Clinton, Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott and Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich. In the letters, Snowbarger urged Congress and the president to stay in Washington until the budget job is completed.
The main budget issue Snowbarger highlighted in his letters was Social Security. He said, "We owe it to our senior citizens, as well as those nearing retirement, to demonstrate now that the federal government will honor the commitment made to them."
Snowbarger recently voted for the Social Security Preservation Act, which would have dedicated 90 percent of the budget surplus to repay the Social Security trust fund.
Members of Congress continue to debate methods of future funding for Social Security. They have yet to reach a consensus.
In his letters, Snowbarger also said, "All of us insist we want a solution to this problem. This is our chance to make our actions match our rhetoric."
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said the extra work on the budget might actually help Snowbarer in his re-election.
"An incumbent congressman acting like a congressman is the best campaigning there is," Cigler said.
Court denies protection for homosexuals
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court allowed Cincinnati to deny homosexuals specific protection from discrimination yesterday, an order likely to create confusion about government policies on gay rights.
The Associated Press
The action came just two years after the justices struck down a similar measure in Colorado as unconstitutional. Unlike the 1996 ruling, yesterday's action set no national precedent but caused outrage.
"The Supreme Court has given up
That's horrible," said Alphonse Gerhardstein, who represented opponents to the Cincinnati city charter amendment. The voter-approved measure bans polices or ordinances that give homosexuals legal protection from discrimination — in housing, employment or otherwise. It also bars any preferential treatment.
What impact, if any, the amended city charter will have is hotly contested. Most cities and states offer no protection against bias based on sexual orientation.
The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld Cincinnati's amended charter
provision, ruling that it removed special protection for gays and lesbians. Yesterday's order left that ruling intact.
Phil Burress, who led the move to put the city charter amendment on the 1993 ballot, claimed victory.
"What it tells me is that the only thing Colorado did wrong was go statewide rather than city by city," he said.
Matt Coles of the American Civil Liberties Union disagreed, saying, "This action doesn't undermine (the 1996 ruling) a whit."
Gay-rights advocates won a dramatic victory two years ago when the Supreme
Court threw out a Colorado state constitutional amendment that prohibited state and local laws from protecting homosexuals from discrimination. The amendment unlawfully singled out gays and sought to make them unequal to everyone else, the Supreme Court ruled then.
In Cincinnati, gay-right advocates succeeded in 1994 in barring enforcement of the city charter measure, but the appeals court lifted a trial judge's injunction.
The Supreme Court had been urged to reverse the appeals court ruling.
Phelps to attend hate-crime victim's funeral in Wyoming
The Associated Press
LARAMIE, Wyo. — The beating death of a gay University of Wyoming student inspired condolences from across the country, as President Clinton and activists asked lawmakers to give homosexuals the protection of hate-crime laws.
Matthew Shepard, 21, died at a Fort Collins, Colo., hospital Monday after spending several days in a coma. His skull was so badly fractured by the beating that doctors said they couldn't operate.
Shepard was found last Wednesday in near-freezing temperatures, lashed to a split-rail post outside Laramie.
Charges against Russell Arthur Henderson, 21, and Aaron James McKinney, 22, were upgraded late Monday following Shepard's death, the court clerk's office said yesterday. Henderson and McKinney were charged with first-degree murder, aggravated robbery and kidnapping with intent to inflict bodily injury or to terrorize the victim. The murder count carries a possible death sentence; the prosecution hasn't said whether he will seek the death penalty.
"All gay people and lesbians have felt alone and under siege at times," gay activist Michael Weinstein told about 1,000 people attending a candlelight vigil in West Hollywood, Calif. "Thinking of him alone on that post, ... it's just horrifying. He was so young. He had not yet had the chance to live."
Charges against the men's girlfriends, Chasity Vera Pasley and Kristen Leann Price, were upgraded to accessory after the fact of first-degree murder. They were accused of helping get rid of bloody clothing.
At arraignment late Monday, the two men were ordered held without bond. Pasley, also arraigned late Monday, and Price, who was arrained yesterday, both had bond set at $30,000.
Police said robbery was the main motive for the attack but that Shepard apparently was chosen in part because he was gay. Shepard had been beaten twice in recent months, attacks he attributed to his homosexuality.
Meanwhile, the Rev. Fred Phelps, the leader of a Topeka, Kan., church whose members regularly engage in anti-homosexual picketing, said he was planning a demonstration at Shepard's funeral.
Gov. Jim Geringer said he cannot stop Phelps from coming, but said precautions would be taken to make sure Friday's services aren't interrupted. Geringer said Phelps' group is "just flat not welcome. ... What we don't need is a bunch of wingnuts coming in."
"Americans will once again search their hearts and do what they can to reduce their own fear and anxiety and anger at people who are different," Clinton said. "And I hope that Congress will pass the hate-crime legislation."
The Hate Crimes Protection Act would make federal offenses of crimes based on sex, disability and sexual orientation. Current law covers crimes based on race, color, religion or national origin.
Of the 41 states that have hate-crime laws, 21 specifically cover offenses motivated by the victim's sexual orientation. Wyoming does not have a hate-crime law.
Shepard died as Gay Awareness Week was starting in Laramie.
"There's no way that can be overlooked," said Jim Osborn, who attended grade school with Shepard. "If his death leads to passage of hate-crimes legislation in Wyoming, it will be a bittersweet footnote in our state's history."

Fraternity hazing nothing new
(USPS 650-640)
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
The latest fraternity hazing allegation at the University of Kansas does not come as a surprise to the administration.
Given the increase in reported hazing incidents during the past several years, KU officials are pleased that awareness has improved.
David Ambler, vice chancellor,
announced the interim suspension of
Phi Kappa Theta, 1941 Stewart Ave., on
Tuesday pending the investigation of
an alleged hazing incident.
Ambler said that for many years, universities and the National Interfraternity Council had ignored or had condoned hazing activities.
The rise in hazing reports indicated that students wanted to put a stop to
PETER A. HUGHES
these incidents, Ambler said.
EXCERPT FROM CHANCELLOR HEMENWAY'S 1995 CONVOCATION SPEECH
"The more incidents that come to our attention, the more evidence that we're squeezing it out of the system," he said. "It's a good sign that people who are part of the organization are saying that it isn't right."
"Most of the rules you will find here are there to protect your physical safety
Since 1995, there have been eight hazing allegations reported to the University. Each of these chapters either received sanctions, were suspended or were placed on probation.
"There is nothing more important than your physical safety. We will not let you be harassed or abused in an way. Women should feel protected here. Men should, too. "If anyone tells you that you must be abused or degraded, hazed or harassed so that you can be a member of a group — greek or non-greek — you let us know. There is no place for such an organization at the University of Kansas."
Ambler, who has worked at the University for 22 years, said that over time these allegations had become less severe.
In the late 1970s to 1980s, new fraternity members were required to have a paddle. Occasionally, older members would beat them with it, Ambler said.
FRATERNITY HAZING
"There was also Hell Week," he said. "That was truly a week of brutal treatment. We've come a long way since those days."
Phi Kappa Theta is the eighth fraternity to be accused of hazing since 1995. The other seven fraternities were either placed on probation or suspended by the University. Interfraternity Council and/or the fraternity's national headquarters:
- **Beta Theta Pi** — October 1997
- **Alpha Tau Omega** — October 1997
- **Pi Kappa Alpha** — February 1997
- **Delta Tau Delta** — October 1996
- **Zeta Beta Tau** — Fall 1996
- **Alpha Epsilon Pi** — October 1995
- **Delta Chi** — Fall 1995
Although an anti-hazing policy has
been established at the University for more than 10 years, Chancellor Robert Hemenway demanded a no-toleration policy in a speech he gave in 1995.
"His speech said that hazing won't be tolerated on campus," said Tum Hut-

Diversity team wants a course in Social Welfare
Kansan staff writer
Bv Steph Brewer
The class would train members of the team, a two-year-old program that educates University of Kansas students in matters of diversity.
Gloria Flores, program director of the Multicultural Resource Center, will present a proposal today to the School of Social Welfare for a pilot class of the Diversity Peer Education Team next semester.
Next week, the School of Social Welfare will decide whether to accept the proposal. As of now, nothing has been finalized and the class is not scheduled for spring.
Last year, Flores, team adviser, had the idea of turning the program into a class for team members and interested students. Since last May, she has been working with the School of Social Welfare to hold the class.
Ann Weick, dean of the School of Social Welfare, said she had been involved with the center through Diversity Dialogues, a program sponsored by the KU Coalition and the center. She said that the school was interested in a course that would train diversity educators.
"The idea of preparing more students who can facilitate diversity dialogues is an important prospect," she said.
sity dialogue Weick said that to create a class, Flores would have to submit a proposal that then would have to be approved by a curriculum committee at the school.
Flores said the class was designed for program members.
"This class is geared for students who already have an understanding of multicultural issues," she said.
This year the team has four core presenters who visit KU classrooms and organizations. This fall, 15 new participants are being trained. Usually, besides the training, team members have meetings to work on presentations.
Flores said students would be less likely to miss class than they would a meeting and therefore would be provided with more consistent, thorough training.
"I think that we'll actually have the time to get our ideas collected and make our program more solid," he said.
Team co-chairman Vincent Edwards, Wichita sophomore, said that a class would help increase the program's effectiveness.

Students to present reform ideas to Regents
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Board of Regents members and university administrators are not alone in their move to revamp higher education governance. Students also want a voice in the process.
Succeed in providing Yesterday, student leaders from six public universities and 10 community colleges from across Kansas convened in Emporia to discuss ways to better coordinate all of Kansas' public higher education institutions. The Board of Regents also began its monthly meeting yesterday.
The group, the Kansas Student Congress on Higher Education Governance, developed a proposal on how to best revamp the system, and
posal on how to be
Regents will hear the
proposal's details
today.
Korb Maxwell, legislative director of Student Legislative Awareness Board, said that he helped to develop the group as a way to add students' opinions to the issue.
"The main point that students want to see is a seamless transition from a community college to a university." Maxwell said.
HIGHER EDUCATION
The students' recommendations focused on five areas: access to and unnecessary duplication of courses and majors, affordability and financing, excellence in education and technology, student representation at the state level and communication.
Who: Kansas Student Congress on Higher Education Governance, composed of student senators from Board of Regents schools.
What: Met to discuss ways to better coordinate all of Kansas' public higher education institutions.
Why: To create a proposal to revamp the system that will be presented to the Board of Regents today.
"Never before have students come forward and asked if a governance issue was in the best interest of students," Maxwell said. "We would like to see the governor's task force take our opinions seriously."
The Governor's Task Force on Higher Education Structure for Excellence was formed by Gov. Bill Graves to examine ways to improve higher-education governance.
it's recommendations to the Legislature are expected in January. The task force also is expected to make a presentation today to the Regents.
Maxwell said that when the student congress put the finishing touches on the proposal, it would be submitted to the state task force and Legislature.
"This is a stepping stone into the future," he said. Kevin Yoder, student body president, said students' views needed to be heard when change occurred.
"This ground-breaking arrangement speaks a lot with what is going to happen with future reforms," he said.
This proposal is the second of its kind developed this month. Chancellor Robert Hemenway and other state university and community college administrators cited the need for a new coordinating body to focus on issues the Board of Regents cannot govern.
Processing fees increase for international students
U.S. immigration raises cost to get authorization to work off-campus jobs
By Kelli Rayborn
Kansan staff writer
Many international students at the University of Kansas will have to pay more to work and live in the United States.
Lynne Vanahill, assistant director of international student services, said that two of the changes would affect numerous international students at the University.
The U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service increased 30 of its 40 filing fees Tuesday.
increase from $70 to $100. Students who wish to reinstate or change their immigrant status will be hit with a jump from $75 to $120.
Students seeking authorization to work off-campus will face a fee
"The one that's probably most discouraging is the change from $70 to $100 for work authorization," Vanahill said. "That's the form for students applying due to economic hardship."
Vanahill said there were about 1,400 international students at the Lawrence campus this semester.
Vladimir Sinkov, Pavlovskii Posad, Russia, senior and president of the International Students Association, said that the increases would be a strain on international students.
"The majority of them will end up filing one of these forms at one point in their academic career at KU.
"It's not going to put people out on the streets or anything like that, but I'm disappointed," he said. "I'm paying too many fees as it is. It all adds up."
The INS said that the increases are justified by the costs they face. These are the first fee increases in four years.
"The application fees we have been charging have not covered our processing costs," said INS Commissioner Doris Meissner.
Sinkov does not think that is the rationale.
"Seventy dollars, I think, is enough to process a piece of paper, don't you?" he said.
simkov said that the increase could impact international students' decision to come to the United States.
This is just one contributing factor that could cause people to change their minds and maybe go to Europe, Sinkov said.
Vanahill agreed.
"When international students are looking at places to study, it makes us less attractive," she said.
Money to work?
The prices to file government forms I-539 and I-765 increased on Oct. 13.
The I-539 is the Application to Extend/ Change Nonimmigrant Status, which will immigrate for an extension of stay. The I-765 is the Application for Employment Authorization, which allows immigrants to work.

impact, but coupled with other factors like the impact of the Asian economic crisis and increasingly restrictive U.S. immigration laws, the change will send a negative message to potential students, Vanahill said.
Haskell could be given control of own hiring
The U.S. Senate passed a bill yesterday that would give Haskell Indian Nations University more autonomy in hiring faculty and staff.
Robert Porter, a KU associate professor of law, said all Haskell faculty and staff had to be hired through the federal personnel system of the Bureau of Indian Affairs in New Mexico, not directly by Haskell officials.
If the bill becomes law, it would transfer the responsibility of hiring to the Haskell president and the Board of Regents.
the board of Regina High Rita Napier, a KU associate professor of history, said this measure reflected Haskell's move toward becoming a four-year university.
"It sounds consistent with the evolution of Haskell in the last 30 years." Porter said.
Haskell began as a boarding school and then evolved into a junior college. Haskell President Bob Martin has been working on establishing four-year programs. Napier said.
Haskell officials could not be reached for comment.

Four bands to play benefit at Bottleneck
Danger Bob, Sugardaddles, Glitterkicks and Alex Brahl will play a benefit show for the KU Pro-Choice Coalition and The Clothesline project 10 tonight at The Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
Proceeds from the event will be split between the two groups.
"It's the first fund-raiser we have done in three or four years," said Sarah Page, organizer of the event. "Last year, we wanted to start one, but it didn't work out."
The 18 and-over show will have a $5 admission fee.
Page said that the goal of the show was to raise awareness about certain women's issues and to raise money for their cause.
The Clothesline project is a visual presentation with a collection of T-shirts that represent violence against women and children. It is a national project that has been localized in Lawrence.
"We are pretty poor at this point, and we want to be able to donate money to the Clothesline project," said Sally Puleo, vice-president of the KU ProChoice Coalition.
The project will be on display during "Women Take Back the Night" from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Oct. 22 at South Park. Page said that people would be able to design and display from the clothesline their own T-shirts.

Girl, mother reunited after day of searching
A KU student, a professor and the KU Public Safety Office worked together to help a lost girl on campus Monday.
According to a police report, Edward Mitchell, Lawrence graduate student, found the girl, 8-year-old Eva Ross, at the bus stop outside Bailey Hall.
Eva was crying and said she had lost her mother, who she said should have been at the stop.
Mitchell took her to the History Department Office in Wescoe Hall to make some calls and try to find her mother. When several attempts to reach her mother were unsuccessful, Mitchell and Dan Bays, history lecturer, called the KU Public Safety Office.
Eva told University Police Officer Steven Mooney that she had been with her mother at her three-year-old brother's school. She said she had gone to get her backpack from a rock garden and could not find her mother when she returned.
Police dispatch contacted the Dole Child Development Center and were told that Eva's mother, Laura Ross, had not been there since early afternoon.
Then a call came into the history office, and Officer Mooney learned that Laura Ross was looking for her daughter near the Development Center, Laura Ross arrived a
few minutes later and was reunited with her daughter, who was unharmed.

Counterfeit bills spent at several businesses
The number of counterfeit $10 bills showing up at local businesses is increasing.
"They're still turning up, some at businesses and some at cafes." I toldald Wheeler.
Thirteen counterfeit bills were spent during the weekend, and the number of reports probably will grow, police said.
So far bids have been received by The Eldridge Hotel, King Arthur's, Milton's coffee shop, Harbour Lights, Jazzhaus, Chill's, the Coco Loco Mexican Cafe and the Granada, police said.
Wheeler said the bills primarily had turned up at bars.
"The reason so many bills turn up in bars is because of the dark and that they are so busy," Wheeler said. "They take the money and don't have time to look at it really close."
Police said that many of the bills were not discovered until they reached the bank in the businesses' deposits the next morning.
"The bank won't take the loss, so they turn them over to the businesses." Wheeler said.
The businesses then take the bills to the police, and the businesses take the loss, police said.
Granada Manager Patrick McDonald said that, hard as it may be, the club was taking steps to avoid being stung by future counterfeiters.
He would not comment further. ___

Dickinson Theatres lays off 17 in Mission
MISSION — About half of Dickinson Theatres corporate staff, including most department heads, have been dismissed as the theater chain continues to look for a buyer for at least part of the company.
The dismissals of 17 of 36 people were announced Monday. The 17 employees were given two weeks severance pay. Those with company cars were told to leave the keys on their desks and were provided rides.
John Hartley, who had been overseeing construction of Dickinson theaters, was named president of the Mission-based company as part of the reorganization.
Chairman Wood Dickinson said the company was talking to three groups that were interested in buying from one-third to one-half of the company. He said he thought his entire market was worth about $55 million. Dickinson declined to identify any of the potential bidders.
Dickinson Theatres operates more than
200 screens in about 30 theaters throughout the Midwest. Dickinson said properties that were not sold would either be closed or would continue to be operated.
Woodlands racetrack auction postponed
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A federal bankrupt judge yesterday posted the auction of The Woodlands dog and horse ractetrack until a court-appointed trustee can develop a new bidding process.
The Woodlands' trustee, attorney Eric Rajala, had requested that Bankruptcy Judge John Flannagan approve the sale at yesterday's hearing. Creditors wanted the auction to be held the same day.
Flannagan agreed that the sale process needed to be restructured and set a new hearing for Nov. 3 to discuss the process.
But attorneys for The Woodlands had objected to the way the auction was structured, saying it was in favor of the creditors.
Rajala had set the minimum opening bid for the racetrack at $3 million for all bidders except creditors who could bid any amount up to what they are owed. He said the track and its assets would be sold as a group, not split up.

Study suggests AIDS more difficult to treat
CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A study found that the AIDS virus can mutate into separate strains in a patient's semen and blood, suggesting the infection may be craftier and harder to treat than previously thought.
The findings challenge the widely held belief that an individual can harbor only one strain of the AIDS virus.
The researchers urged the development of drugs that attack blood- and semen-based viruses separately.
The research involved 1.1 HIV-infected men in North Carolina and Switzerland. Some of those who were treated before the study had AIDS strains that had mutated and developed resistance to antiviral drugs.
in most of the volunteers with these resistant viruses, their sperm and blood were found to contain different viral strains.
Protease inhibitors, a powerful class of AIDS drugs, did not penetrate the male genitalis or did so only with great difficulty.
The researchers, physicians Pietro Vernazza of St. Gall Cantonal Hospital in Switzerland and Joseph J. Eron of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, concluded that the male genitalis and the bloodstream act as separate compartments, which have to be dealt with independently when giving AIDS drugs.

University tries to crackdown on harassment
Continued from page 1A
ton, director of University relations. "So what you're seeing is a crackdown from the top. There's an increased emphasis on letting people know about hazing and making it a public issue."
Tim Nadon, president of Phi Kappa Theta, said he agreed that hazing was wrong. He said that if the allegations against his chapter were proven to be true, then the perpetrators would be punished.
"We have been cooperating with the University and our headquarters 100 percent." Nadon said. "If they are proven true, I would not tolerate that in my house."
While hazing is the official name for any unwanted treatment or force in action, some fraternity members only consider physical beating the definition of hazing.
"Every fraternity has traditional things that they have to do, like when we get our pledge pins," said Matt Graham, St. Louis freshman and new member of Delta Tau Delta. "But I wouldn't say that's hazing because it's not physical abuse."
"It sucked because it started to rain around 5 a.m., but we all stayed because you have to do everything with your pledge class," he said. "That's the tradition."
Ambler said that if tradition was the reason for some hazing incidents, the traditions might need to be altered.
"Slowly but surely we'll work all the hazing out of the system," he said.

KU tuition increase is below average
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students are paying more for their college education this year than last, but recently released statistics show the increase is less than the national average.
The average total increase in tuition and fees for the academic year was $85 for residents and $228 for non-residents taking 15 hours each semester.
The Associated Press reported last week that the average increase of in-state tuition at a public four-year university was $132, and the average tuition and fees were $3.243.
KU tuition and fees for undergraduates taking 15 hours of classes this semester were $2,470 for residents and $8,918 for nonresidents, according to the University of Kansas Profiles book distributed by the Office of Institutional Research and Planning. An exact KU tuition amount was not available because the University figures tuition based on credit hour rather than a flat rate.
The University Profiles estimates the amount of tuition by using 15 hours per semester as an average and multiplying that by the cost per credit hour.
The cost per credit hour increased $2.55 to $68.05 for residents and $7.35 to $283 for non-
n residents. Fees increased $8 to $428 for the year.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that the Board of Regents established the tuition and fees cost for all of the Kansas Regents' schools.
"The Board of Regents has done a good job of keeping the cost of tuition down," he said. "We have to pay the electric bill and the faculty's salaries, but this University provides an accessible and high-quality education."
Hemenway said the Legislature had revised its thinking and was giving more state support to schools. As a result, he said the schools were able to slow the increases.
Geri Cohen, Queens, N.Y., junior, said she questioned the need for any increase in tuition and fees, regardless of the fact that other schools' costs were increasing.
She said one aspect of the increase that bothered her was the fact that she didn't notice any change in available services.
"If they increase tuition, then they should increase the facilities on campus that we have access to," she said.

Fair offers advice for underclassmen
Greek honor society gives peer advising helps with enrollment
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
In an attempt to give underclassmen a student's perspective on the advising process, members of Gamma Sigma Alpha honor society will hold a fair tonight to point freshmen and sophomores in the right direction.
help.
The peer advising fair will take place from 7 to 9 tonight at the Frontier Room in the Burge Union. The fair also was held Monday.
Gamma Sigma Alpha is a junior senior Greek honor society, but the fair is open to all University students. More than 75 students went to the fair Monday for advising
In its first year, the fair was designed to help students with their majors by meeting with other students.
"Since we're an honors society, we really wanted to help people in an academic setting, that's the main idea," said Kelly Thompson, Gamma Sigma Alpha vice president. "We thought that fellow students could serve as good resources. Not only do they have experience, but they know how to read the timetable and catalog."
More than 25 peer advisers from University of Kansas schools, such as journalism, engineering, fine arts, business and others, went through an advising training session.
Thompson said that the office of New Student Orientation and the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center gave the peer advisers tips, such as how to read the timetable
PEER ADVISING FAIR

Students that attended the peer advising fair said they thought that listening to fellow students speak about their experiences was helpful in trying to establish a spring 1999 schedule and a four-year plan.
and what the correct sequence to take classes was.
"I think it's good to get a student's point of view rather than just an adviser," said Katie Holman, Prairie Village freshman. "Someone in my own major can tell me where they messed up and point me in the right direction. Hopefully, I can avoid similar mistakes."
Although the peer advisers, which are juniors and seniors, were able to help give ideas, fresh
men and sophomores also need to meet with their assigned advisers, said David Goodsell, associate director at the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center.
If a freshman or sophomore has not received a letter explaining the advising period, freshmen need to call the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center and sophomores need to call the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Services.
Thompson said that Gamma Sigma Alpha members hoped to continue the peer advising fair each fall and maybe in the spring semesters.
Drew Thompson, Wichita freshman, said he appreciated the experience.
"I think the setup worked well," he said. "It was easily accessible, and it's nice to talk with a student. A lot of times a random adviser won't have all the answers."

ALL WE WANT IS A FAIR INQUIRY
MOYAK
IMPEACH ME
Robert Novak / KANSAN
Editorials
Full inquiry necessary to find truth
The United States House of Representatives was correct in its decision to allow an impeachment inquiry of President Clinton that is broad in scope and not limited to the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
Lewinsky alone, but that measure failed by a vote of 236-198. Representatives voted in favor of the investigation 258-176, with 31 Democrats supporting the open-ended investigation. A similar investigation proposed by House Democrats would have limited the range to matters relating to Lewinsky alone, but that measure failed by a vote of 236-198.
Clinton, therefore, will be the third president in U.S. history to endure an impeachment inquiry, an inquiry the scale of those for Presidents Andrew Johnson and Richard Nixon.
Aside from the Lewinsky scandal
The House correctly voted to conduct an open-ended investigation.
Clinton could be accountable for charges related to the Whitewater, travel office and campaign finance scandals.
In addition, public support for the inquiry appears to be scarce. According to a poll from The Associated Press, 51 percent of Americans believe Clinton's misconduct is less serious than Nixon's involvement in Watergate. And in the Senate, a conviction appears unlikely; a two-thirds vote would require the approval of 12 Senate Democrats, even if all Republicans voted to convict.
The extent to which Clinton has misled this nation should revolt every American. His testimony in August confirms he has lied; based on this, a full investigation by the House is certainly justified. The evidence supporting other crimes is equally disturbing. It would be a miscarriage of justice to ignore well-founded suspicions that Clinton's 1996 presidential campaign accepted money from foreign countries or that he participated in the cover-up of a land deal gone bad.
Despite its lack of popularity, this investigation is a necessity. As Orrin Hatch, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said, the inquiry isn't a matter of the polls; it is a matter of doing your duty and doing what is right. And that includes looking at all aspects of this inquiry, not just impeachment.
Chris Borniger for the editorial board
Inquiry opens Clinton Hunting season
Last Thursday, the House Judiciary Committee voted to pursue an impeachment inquiry against the President of the United States. The decision was almost directly along party lines, with most Democrats voting against the resolution. However, those votes do not imply unqualified support for the president.
What the voices mean is that the Democrats do not support the inquiry as it is presently being pursued. Republicans in the House of Representatives asked for, and received, an open-ended inquiry with no time limit. This means the Republican majority in the House has effectively declared open season on Bill Clinton and his personal life.
The Judiciary Committee was right to oppose a time limit on the inquiry. Such a limit would have allowed the president to withhold evidence of wrongdoing until the investigation deadline
The impeachment proceedings should be confined by time and scope.
passed, defeating the purpose of the inquiry. However, the scope of this investigation should have been narrowed before the resolution was passed.
The office of the special prosecutor spent $40 million of the taxpayer's money to arrive at the conclusions contained in the Starr report. An unlimited inquiry will be vastly more expensive. If concrete evidence of impeachable offenses is found, then the additional money will have been well-spent.
But there is more than just money at stake. Our self-respect as a nation is on the line as well. Every day brings fresh evidence from polls and focus groups that the American people do not want
to see this president impeached. More than that, the people are tired of hearing the endless tacky, tawdry, tabloid stories about Bill and Monica and the ever-present Cuban cigar. It seems doubtful that anyone would want to hear about his other indiscretions, inside the Oval Office or not. In fact, a popular comedy show that lampoons the news media has given its continuing coverage of this story the running title of "Make It Stop '98."
This Republican-backed, open-ended impeachment inquiry smacks of a witch-hunt — and a personal, moralistic one at that. For the sake of the nation, Congress must remember that they work for the people who want this whole affair to end. They should act quickly to either impeach the president or move on. This inquiry ought not become a forum to air personal dislikes about the president's personal life.

Cultural change needed to solve alcohol issues
Perspective
Alcohol has become of greater importance this year in Lawrence. Each school year, there must be something new for students, faculty and community members to
less about. Last year, it was the University selling out to Coke, Nike and Commerce Bank. This year, it is underaged-college student drinking alcohol.
gasp: -- in drinking alcohol.
At least three separate operations are going on.
First, the state is watching local bars very closely.
Seven bars were cited by the Alcoholic Beverage Control agency for serving minors. These businesses must either close for a day or undergo "alcohol-enforcement training" for a

day. Second, the University is surveying students about underage drinking in town to possibly form a task force from the results.
And finally, the Lawrence City Commission is seeking to close all bars located in residential areas at midnight (rather than 2 a.m.).
They all assume if bars are inaccessible, college students will not drink. The problem is the bars making liquor available to otherwise decent students. After all, students cannot be expected to have self-control if a bar is open.
I cannot think of a polite way to phrase my response to this.
These groups have some substance-abuse problems of their own if they seriously think making bars unavailable to underage students will solve anything. These efforts will have no effect except to harm the bars' business. I am not a lobbyist for the liquor trade union, but the stupidity and ineptitude of those carrying out these efforts is unfair to the bars. Students will drink anyway. They will go to a friend's room or find a house party. They are not stupid. They are at the No.8 party school in the nation.
Think about our culture for a moment. What do children learn, from a very young age, about college? Kids learn that the four (or five or six)
but that is not a new problem. We love attacking institutions that do not have a real connection to problems they highlight. Abortion is a good example. There is nothing inherently good or bad about abortion. It is a medical procedure that can be used in different ways - to save lives or as birth control. Those who tear their hair out concerning abortion ignore real problem of people having unprotected sex. It is easy to attack a specific, easy-to-define institution, but much harder to redefine the mores of a culture.
years spent at great "Whatever U" was the best time mom and dad ever had! It was the time they got plastered every night, puked on each other and fell in love. Television broadcasts an endless succession of movies showing university life as an endless bacchanal of booze, sex, loud music and comical professors.
The fuss over alcohol in Lawrence has the same difficulty. It has become obvious that binge drinking among college students is a problem, but no one will suggest students change. Students have laughed off "Just Say No" campaigns since grade school. Closing bars and conducting surveys gives the illusion that state, city and campus leaders are solving something.
Partying and alcohol are what students expect from college. Society has shaped them this way. It is a pervasive notion of late 20th-century civilization that young people have a right to abuse their minds and bodies every night that is at fault. The bars are not to blame. Our collective mindset is.
The alcohol "problem" cannot be fixed overnight. I doubt it can be fixed for several decades. For real change to occur, our culture must shift. Parents and the entertainment industry must change the messages they send. They can not wink when teenagers start drinking heavily in high school. Movies and TV can not glamorize a potentially lethal, toxic substance. Our standards as a nation must be altered.
And if you think that will not happen any time soon, I think you are right. Care to join me for a drink?

Fall break could alleviate first semester doldrums
The Board of Regents is looking skeptically at the idea of a fall break.
On the front page of the Oct. 5 Kansan, the Regents' position was supported by a
few basic premises. First, the board is trying to get pay increases for University staffers. It feels that the deletion, actually a reappropriation, of school days would harm its political agenda. If parents and taxpayers view the issue as one of students and faculty wanting more time off, then the Kansas Legislature may scorn the break. Also, the regents feel hat students given a two

way break, would take more of a break — say three or four days. Phyllis Nolan, a Regents member, was quoted in the article as saying that the break would disrupt the flow of the semester.
First of all, although it may be harmful to the salary agenda, the fall break does not change the number of days that students or faculty have in the semester. The only time it does shorten is the length of finals week. Therefore, the faculty would be getting a raise not for less work, but for the same amount.
Second, the issue of whether students will abuse the privilege and decide that two days are not enough is tangential. It is not the responsibility of the Regents to speculate on student's individual decisions. If I decide to skip class, for any reason, it is both my decision and my responsibility. Also, if professors wish to keep students from fleeing, they can assign homework, give tests or assign papers to be due on the day before the break.
So, should or should there not be a fall break?
Well, I have not done any surveys or taken any polls, but from personal experience I can surmise that the fall break is a good idea. Personally, I consistently perform more poorly in the fall than I do in the spring. Maybe it is because the days get shorter and the general malaise sets in from watching the foliage shrivel and die.
maybe the thunderstorms and cloud cover fill my mind with darkness and rain. Maybe these are the exact reasons why we need to have a fall break. It is difficult enough to contend with the mid-semester blues. After taking a round of midterms, grudgingly and
arduously, the last thing a student wants to do is to go back to class.
The fall semester would be much easier to deal with if students knew that they would be rewarded with a little time off after enduring the first half of the fall semester. In the spring, students are both energized and replenished by spring break. Students look forward to it and often spend much of the beginning of the semester trying to decide where they are going to go and what they are going to do with their break. They also speculate how little school work they are going to do.
True, I have had assignments to be completed on the first day back. Although I have not looked forward to doing them, I still have a whole week to procrastinate and leisurely toil about how I would tackle the work.
With the absence of a fall break, students spend the fall trying to decide how they are going to completely collapse between the semesters.
Thanksgiving break is too little too late. By the time Thanksgiving rolls around, midterms are a distant memory, many rounds of tests have been had in the interim and finals are just around the corner. All of these things are occurring without the alleviation of stress that has compiled throughout the semester.
out the semester.
In some ways, Thanksgiving break does little to alleviate the stress of the fall semester. Because finals follow Thanksgiving by just a few weeks, students do not have much time to relax and take deep breaths. They are too busy worrying about their grades and stressing out about just how difficult those finals will be.
For the past five years, I have taken my own self-subscribed breaks. After the midterm exams are over, I just skip a couple of days of class. I know I am going to pay for it when I get back, but by that point, I just need a couple of days off.
I hope that the Board of Regents considers the students' position on the issue. I know very few students who are against the fall break. I know it may not be a popular political issue, but college is an all-or-nothing job; either you have a week, or several weeks, during which everything is going on or nothing. When you are not doing absolutely everything, sometimes it is better to do absolutely nothing — especially in the middle of the semester.

Committees oppose hate crimes
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate committees want to see Chancellor Robert Hemenway issue a public statement condemning the murder of Matthew Shepard, a 22 year-old gay University of Wyoming student.
Shepard was assaulted last week and djed Monday.
The resolution passed unanimously through the Multicultural Affairs and Student Rights committees at last night's meetings. It asks that Hemenway not only condemn the crime, but also affirm that all KU students, regardless of their sexual orientation or beliefs, are protected by the University from hate crimes.
Matt Dunbar, senior holdover senator and finance committee member, co-sponsored the bill and said that the media coverage of the crime warranted Senate's involvement.
"In the past few days, every paper has had an article about Matthew Shepard in it," he said. "It's given me the feeling that something needed to be done locally."
Dunbar said that the Hemenway and the University had a reputation for protecting students' rights and therefore should take a stance on the crime in Wyoming.
"The University does have a policy against hate crime, and that is important," he said. "But even
more important is that we have a public statement saying that this is a place where people can come and be themselves and grow, no matter who they are."
The resolution cited a time in 1969 when Hemenway stood up for student rights at the University of Wyoming, where he was a faculty member.
Twelve African-American football players faced disciplinary action after wearing black arm bands in a game against Brigham Young University in protest of the Mormons treatment of African Americans. Hemenway supported the football players, even though the University did not.
The committees also heard from Tom Sawyer, Democratic candidate for governor.
He said he saw himself as a candidate that represents students.
Sawyer gave a 10-minute speech at the beginning of the meeting and then fielded questions from the audience for about 15 minutes.
"With programs like the STARS scholarship program, a program that grants every high school student with a 'B' average the chance to go to college tuition free, I'd definitely see myself as a candidate who is looking out for students," he said. "And I also take advice from students. In fact, a lot of my campaign staff is made up of college students."
Sawyer said that the key to beat-

"I met a waitress the other day who said she was registering to vote for the first time because of me," he said. "She sees a way to put her kids through college with the STARS program."

"He speaks about concerns students have, like financial aid, opportunities for less fortune. We were very happy to have him here," Moore said.

By Kristen Reimer Special to the Keeper
Philip M. Condit, chairman and chief executive officer of Boeing Co., will speak at 7 onight at the Lied Center.
Condit's address is part of the Anderson Chandler Lecture Series. Condit's lecture is entitled "Change and Challenge: Engineering in the 21st Century." After the lecture he will take questions from the audience.
"This is a chance to interact with the CEO of one of the major corporations of the world," said Leslie Reynard, director of communications for the School of Business, which is coordinating the event along with the School of Engineering.
Condit has been with the company since 1965 and was named chief executive officer in 1996 and chairman in 1997.
Boeing is the largest exporter in the United States, with revenues of approximately $46 billion in 1997, according to the company Web site. Boeing Wichita, which manufactures commercial jetliner components, is Kansas' largest private employer.
helped arrange Condit's visit to the University.
Alan Mullaly, a University of Kansas graduate and Lawrence native, works for Condit in Seattle as president of the Boeing Commercial Airplane Group. Alice Meyer, event coordinator for the School of Business, said Mullaly
"He worked through the channels, and Mr. Condit agreed to come." Meyer said. "I understand he's an excellent speaker, very down-to-earth."
The event is free and open to the public.
Condit also will speak today with a select group of about 90 students from the business and engineering schools.
Condit is not charging the University a personal speaking fee because he considers the event a public service, Meyer said.
Other costs associated with the lecture series are paid for by funds donated by Anderson Chandler, a KU alumnus and president of Fidelity State Bank and Trust of Topena. Chander established the lecture series with a $205,000 gift in 1996.

Cops in Shops arrests down from last year
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Since the Lawrence Police Department stepped up the Cops in Shops program last month, only one arrest has been made, but police said that was not an indication that the program was ineffective.
"It's really difficult to determine the success of the program by counting the number of arrests," said Lawrence police Sgt. Richard Nickell. "To truly be successful is to keep underage people from trying to purchase alcohol."
Cops in Shops started in 1996. Undercover police pretend to be liquor store employees in an attempt to stop minors from buying alcohol, said April Marvin, state director of the Drunk Driving Prevention Project.
Lawrence police increase the number of officers in liquor stores every fall when students return to Lawrence.
The program was responsible for 26 arrests last fall, police said.
While the police consider those arrests to indicate a success last year, Nickell said that the opposite may be true this year.
"It could be said that the program is working if no underage person is arrested," he said. "Another way to look at it is that there's only one person not deterred."
While some liquor store owners said they thought the number of minors trying to purchase alcohol had decreased, some disagreed.
John Webb, owner of Webb's Spirit Wine and Beer, 800 W. 23rd St., said that the only way to curb underage drinking was to legislate the reduction of advertising by alcohol companies targeting minors.
Jeff Krug, manager of Cork and Barrel Wine and Spirits, 2000 W. 23rd St., said that the number of minors who tried to buy alcohol from his store had remained consistent.
He said that there have been no police in the store yet but that the Alcohol Beverage Control has arrested several underage buyers.
The year-round program is a cooperative effort between the police, the Kansas Drunk Driving Prevention Project and Lawrence liquor stores.

Women's team faces pressure of No.7 rank
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
When a coach has been around for 26 years, she's got a story that applies to just about everything.
So it should come as no surprise that Kansas women's basketball coach Marian
Washington had an anecdote at the team's media day yesterday for how this
BASKETBALL
year's team will respond after winning 23 games and reaching the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament last year.
"I remember when Lynette Woodard made her first Kodak All-American," she said. "Within 48 hours, I suggested to her that it was time to begin training to prove that it wasn't a fluke.
"That's what I'm looking for this year. Yes, we got to the Sweet 16, but we have to come back this year and send the message out that it wasn't just a fluke."
Washington sat at the head table and told a roomful of reporters what was going through her mind as she prepared for this season with a team ranked as high as No.7 in preseason polls.
"I'm really excited about the fact that I've got players who have had the experience now of the NCAA Tournament," she said. "They enjoyed it, and they want to go back. That makes your job a lot easier."
- The team is led by junior All-American candidate Lynn Pride and a stable of experienced players.
Senior Suzi Raymant should be healthy for practice this weekend after suffering an off-season knee injury. Raymant was second on the team with 14.2 points per game last year, providing the Jayhawks with a scoring threat to complement Pride.
A
Senior Nakia Sanford leads the Jayhawks on the interior. She was second on the team with 6.6 rebounds per game last year and is a consistent defensive force.
Last year, several players were asked to play inflated minutes because of a lack of bodies. This year, the team has added a recruiting class that many consider to be among the nation's top 10.
Freshmen Kristin Geoffroy, Katie Hannon, Selena Scott and Dameyia Stepney join sophomore transfer Brooke Reves to give Washington more depth.

Washington named depth and quickness as improvements from last year.
"It just makes me laugh," she said. "Last year we weren't even in the polls and all of them say something different so you can't really put too much stock in it."
Sanford said that she was excited to get this season under way but that she doesn't take the preseason polls seriously.
Sanford sees good points and bad points in being ranked.
"The positive thing is we're confident," she said. "We're going to walk into a game knowing we're ranked higher than the team we are playing so we're going to kick their butts. Or it could be negative, like 'OK, we're good so we don't have to work hard."
Either way, entering this season in the top 10 is a lot different than last year's team which wasn't expected to do much.
"Last year, we went into some games and surprised teams because we were better than they expected," Pride said. "But this season people know what we can do and so now they are coming after us. We have to prepare ourselves for that."
"Last year, we weren't even in the polls and all of them say something different so you can't really put too much stock in it. The positive thing is we're confident. We're going to walk into a game knowing we're ranked higher than the team we're playing
so we're going to kick their butts. Or it could be negative, like, 'OK, we're good so we don't have to work hard.'"

Friends turn into foes in football match-up
Kansas' Hill, Nebraska's Evans were teammates in high school
CITY OF NEWARK
Hill: Faces former teammate Saturday
A. DAVIS
By Jodi M. Smith
Evans: Played with Hill in high school.
Kanson sportswriter
Hill, a freshman wide receiver for the Kansas football team, will face his former teammate, Nebraska running back DeAngelo Evans, when the Jayhawks travel to Lincoln this weekend.
For three years in high school, Harrison Hill cheered for his teammate. This time, Hill will be rooting against him.
Hill and Evans will not play against each other directly since they both are on offense, but Hill said it would be different having Evans on the opposite sideline.
"I'm sure it will be weird because I'm so used to in high school playing with him and having the advantage of him on my team," he said. "I guess it will be kind of weird seeing him on the other side of the field and going against him hoping that he doesn't do very good."
Even though Kansas and Nebraska faced each other last season, this is the first time Evans and HUl will play against each other. Last year, they
both suffered season-long injuries.
The two players attended Collegiate High School in Wichita, playing football together for three years and basketball for two.
"We were buddies," Hill said. "He was the kind of guy who was to himself a lot, but I was good friends with him. Through a lot of things, we hung out. We were probably as good a friend as we could've been."
Senior offensive tackle Michael Lies also played football at Collegiate with Hill and Evans.
Hill isn't the only Wichita Collegiate alumnus on the Kansas football team.
Throughout their years together, the three played on one of the best Class 8A football teams in Kansas.
And in a high school small enough that everybody knows everybody else, Evans and Hill were more than just teammates.
And, in 1994 — Hill's sophomore year and Evans' junior year — the two captured the 3A state championship title in a 28-6 blowout against Marion High School.
But, Hill said, that was just one of many memorable moments the two teammates shared together.
"Every game there was some awesome memory that I have," Hill said. "We had so many great games, so many great times. There were so many that just one doesn't necessarily stand out. All of our games together were awesome."
The last time the two talked was this summer, and the main focus of the conversation was not this game.
"We talk about it some, but not too much." Hill said. "We don't bring it up, really, going against each other. We talk about how it's going to be fun when we do play against each other."
But Hill will not be cheering for Evans this time.
HILL 1

"I don't feel bad because I'm sure he doesn't want me breaking 80-yard touchdown runs against them," Hill said. "We want to win. I hope he does well, but I hope we can contain him enough so that we can win."
Commentary Football team soon will play second fiddle to basketball
Fact: The Kansas football team's final game (assuming they don't make a post-season bowl) is Nov. 21 at Iowa State.
Sad, but true. Unfair, but accurate.
Reality: The Kansas football team's season actually ends shortly after midnight on Friday when Roy's boys take the court for the first time.
With tomorrow's Late Night with Roy Williams, coach Terry Allen can all but kiss away what dying interest remains in this year's football team. It shouldn't be that war, but the die
that way, but the die has been cast.

Harley Batliff
Lawrence is a basketball town. Kansas is a basketball school. The heart and soul of the student body rests within the steamy confines of Allen Field House — not in the cavernous, empty stands of Memorial Stadium.
The guys in the barber shops talk hoops, not niskin. Fans
not panic here refer to the basketball players by their first name — as if they are all close personal friends. ("Oh my god, Nicole, I saw Raef at the deli line at Wescoe!") Fans refer to the football players by numbers and positions. You might even hear a last name — if they can remember one. ("Hey Dom, that No. 22 sure is fast!")
That's the way things work around these parts. Always has been; always will be.
Because when the world revolves around basketball, gridiron mediocrity simply becomes a way of life.
And that, in a nutshell, is the biggest roadblock between Allen and a successful program. The fans simply don't care. Not one lick.
Allen knows he needs to recruit quarterbacks. He knows he needs to develop talent. He knows he needs to build a solid foundation. But most importantly, unless his program can get locals excited about Saturday, Kansas football will always play second fiddle.
Two weeks ago, Texas A&M came to Lawrence. It had all the makings of a great college football game.
And he's trying to heighten interest. Look at the slogan for the 1988 season: "KU Football. Make it part of your life."
Unfortunately, few have.
The Aggies have been one of the nation's most successful programs the last 15 years. Ranked in the top 25, the Aggies were making their second trip ever to Lawrence, Kansas, coming off a thrilling four-overture victory, was looking to get it's first conference win after tough losses to Oklahoma State and Missouri. The weather was perfect — cool and sunny, with a slight breeze that seemed to usher in the arrival of autumn.
As I sat in the press box, I watched and waited for fans to fill up the student section. Surely, I thought, they will come. Don't they want to see good college football?
But the closer it got to game time, the more evident the situation became. There would be plenty of vacant seats for the opposing team's fans to occupy.
The sad thing is, the Jayhawks played as well as they have all season. Kansas eventually lost, but as the game drew to a close, I wondered what kind of difference a packed house would have made.
I assumed fans would show up to see Kansas play a good team. The fans stayed home because they assumed Kansas would lose.
it's too bad because Allen and his team
does better. They deserve fans that care
—and show up to games. They deserve the same support that the rest of the programs in the Big 12 Conference receive.
Maybe things will change, but it's doubtful. Kansans simply don't care.
Oh, by the way, who do you think will start as point guard this year? Ryan or Jeff?

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 15).
You're learning to take care of others this year. It's difficult at first, but it's good for you — and them. You'll get an assignment in October that you can carry out by December. A lucky break makes January easy. A loved one provides security in a strange sort of way in February.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 6.
The moon's in Virgo, helping you focus on the little stuff by making it even more important than usual. Aries may be the sign of the warrior, but remember the part of basic training where they make you fold your downwear into a precise four-inch square? That's the kind of stuff you'll do today, so you might as well do it on purpose.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 6. You and your sweetheart have lots to talk about, and many plans for the future to be made. Some of those ideas look impossible right now, but don't let that stop you. When the two of you get motivated and work together, anything is possible. It might take a longer life, but that's OK. You've got the whole rest of your lives.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) — Today is a 5.
It's possible that your house could stand a tidying up. You want to go play with your friends and you'll find some time to do that, but don't waste the whole day on social activities. It's kind of important that you take care of your domestic chores, too. You'll see why this weekend
Cancer (June 22-July 22) — Today is a 7.
A little more education is required before you reach what you're after. The process is like a ladder, with each rung another skill you'll acquire or a bit of information you've collected. Today, you'll get to go on a scavenger hunt for more of the above. Be aggressive about it; don't wait for it to come to you.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 6.
Money is coming in today, possibly as a reward for your previous brilliance. Some of it has been generated by work you've done, and some could be a gift. You don't have to just sit there and wait for it to happen.
You could remind people of money they owe you, too.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) — Today is a 6.
You're so strong and decisive you might surprise people who thought you were a pushover. You try to take care of others, even if it means going without something you wanted. That's being a nice guy, but may see it as weakness. They will be critical of you today because you're going after what you want.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) — Today is a 6.
You promised you'd do lunch, remember? The person you said that to still is waiting. He or she has left the brown bag with the sandwich in it at home for several weeks now, waiting for your call. Now they are wonder really care. Since you do, call.
2
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) — Today is a 6.
You may be feeling under pressure, but friends can help. Don't try to do everything by yourself. Sometimes you think you should because you can do it best. In this case, however, it's ridiculous. You'd just get all stressed out, and the job might not get done anywav
LOVE
ring if you
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 5. You may feel compelled to tell your boss exactly what you think. Maybe you should. If you have a good idea about how to make the business prosper, definitely get it out. If you present solutions instead of complaining about problems, your behavior could earn you a promotion instead of getting you fired. Go for it.
图示
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 6.
If you're looking for love, try looking at your college campus. It's also an excellent day to sign up for a class. Love and higher education are linked, and it looks like it could be fun. Structure is required of course, but that's not a problem. Structure is your middle name.
SCORPIO
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) — Today is a 5.
You should be planning for your future. No one else is going to do it for you, no matter what they say. If you trust them with your life, what happens if they can't follow through? They might have the best intentions, but you're left stranded.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 5.
You generally like to handle tough jobs. Let somebody else do the part you find most tedious. If you pick the right person, they'll see it as a blessing. Just because a job is difficult for you doesn't mean it's difficult for everyone. For some people, it's like a vacation. That's the one you want to find, obviously.

Tennis All-American wins opening match
Uribe, a 1998 All-American, improved his season singles record to 6-1, and the victory marked his third win against a ranked opponent this season.
Kansas senior Luis Uribe defeated 95th-ranked K.J. Hippensteel of Stanford 6-2, 6-4 on Tuesday in the opening round of the ITA All-American qualifying draw.

"It was a tough loss, but it's one of those that I think that he can learn something," Riley said. "That kind of match will make you tougher later in the season."
Uribe and Dus,ranked No.39 nationally in doubles, also will participate today in the main draw of the doubles tournament.

Women's basketball aims to win
Team's success new recruits help bolster confidence
by Mellinger Kansan sportswriter
Four highly-regarded freshmen completed their first official duty as Kansas women's basketball players yesterday at the team's media day.
They had to talk.
"I'm just kind of chilling right now," said 6-foot-6 center Kristin Geoffrov of Los Alamitos, Calif.
Like the other rookies, Geoffroy plans to play a significant, yet limited role this year.
"I expect to play. I just don't expect to start." Geoffry said. "I'll probably be behind Nakia (Sanford) coming off the bench, but I'll in some quality minutes."
Selena Scott is perhaps the most highly-touted of the freshman, twice named Most Valuable Player in Texas.
"There's jitters going through my body right now," Scott said. "Right now I feel that I'm just learning from the upperclassmen."
the willingness for the older players to help the freshmen has
been one thing coach Marian Washington said would help them adjust to collegiate basketball.
Washington said that the upper-classmen have helped the freshmen understand better what it's going to take for the team to be successful this season.
Scott is one of three guards in the recruiting class, along with Katie Hannon, a 6-2 shooter from Rochester, N.Y., and 5-9 Dameyla Steenney from Midwest City, Okla.
There may not be many opportunities for the four freshmen to show how good they are. This year, the Jawhays return all five starters and 99 percent of its scoring.
"I think we have one of the best recruiting classes in the nation." Stepney said.

"That's what I was looking for," Steyn said. "I'm better when I can fit in, rather than if I have to carry a team on my back."
Geoffroy, Scott, Hannon and Stephen arrive at Kansas at a critical time.
The team is coming off a 23-win season and is looking to turn those types of seasons into the norm.
"We can do it," Hannon said. "Last year was a building block for the future, and since we did so well last year, more recruits are going to be looking at us. We'll keep getting better."
To continue to improve is just one of Stepney's goals.
"I want a championship, first of all," Stepney said. "And I want to walk away from here knowing I
gave 100 percent, made coach Washington happy and made myself happy. And I want to walk away from here with a degree and then go to the WNBA."
Commentary
Kansas football midterm report shows room for improvement
I'm in the mood for midterms and grades. So I decided to grade the Kansas football team by rushing offense, passing offense, rushing defense, passing defense and special teams
The rushing offense could use some work. Although Saturday's game against Baylor showed promise,
it's not where we were two years ago when we had June Henley and L.T. Levine.
Mitch Bowles and David Winbush are just as talented as Henley and Levine. However, our offensive line is undersized and is overpowered
10
in many games. The rushing offense kept the line in the game against Missouri and Baylor, but fumbles near the goal line against Oklahoma State, Texas A&M and Baylor were costly. The 'Hawks rank tenth in the Big 12 Conference in rushing with 150 yards per game. Teams don't lose sleep in fear of that kind of rushing attack. Running backs Devin West from Missouri, with 958 yards, and Ricky Williams from Texas, with 1225 yards alone, have more yards rushing than KU does as a team. Grade: C-
The passing offense is productive.
We have receivers with speed, size and good hands. We have a quarterback with a great arm, but he struggles with his accuracy on out patterns and deep passes. Quarterback Zac Wegner is No. 2 in the league in passing yards with 1,246. He got there with the help of his receivers. Play makers Termaine Fulton, Harrison Hill, Michael Chandler and Byron Gasaway are talented enough to gain yards after the catch. These receivers should be the focal point of the offense.
Any time they're in 20 yards of the end zone, Coach Allen should call a lap pass to the 6-foot-4 inch Gasaway, who can outleap anyone. He has eight catches this year and two of them have been for touchdowns.
When Coach Allen came to Kansas he said this would be a wide-open offense. If the team would throw the ball more, it could be. The downside to throwing the ball more is that the Jay hawks always spot the opposition seven points at the beginning of the game because of an interception. Grade: B-
■ KU's rush defense has been terrible. It is ranked dead last in the Big 12, giving up 219 yards a game. However, the goal line stand against Texas A&M a couple of weeks ago was impressive. I'll give the team the benefit of the doubt and say that it would be better if the line was healthy. It lacks several key interior linemen because of injuries. Grade:D-
Pass defense has been spectacular
If the offense would ever put a team into a situation where it would have to pass its way back into a game, we would be unstoppable. The pass defense ranks third in the league, giving up only 149 yards a game. It has given up five touchdowns but has intercepted the ball a league-high eight times. Jamie Harris is an all-conference corner and the Hawks missed him last Saturday. Quincy Roe replaced the injured Harris and responded with an interception, but in the fourth quarter his inexperience showed. I'll disregard the last game because the secondary was missing key defensive backs. Grade: A
Special teams are fear and famine.
Either the ball hits Henri Childs in the back or the team returns a punt for a touchdown. Either a bad snap leads to an opposing team's touchdown or the team kicks a long field goal. Grade: C+
Running back Mitch Bowles and wide receiver Byron Gasaway are playmakers and should be utilized more. This is a passing team that should do what it does best. Kansas football should live and die by the pass.
The bottom line is that the team must stop making silly mistakes. For once it should make the other team win the game rather than handing to them.
The midterm grades have been distributed, and I think these are reasonable. Finals are next. Let's hope the team will pass.

Volleyball team expects turnout of record crowd
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas volleyball team has been drawing quite a crowd to its home games this season.
nr 11-7 Jayhawks boast a new coach, a new attitude and a new winning record. But in the midst of a five-match conference losing streak, tomorrow night's match against Iowa State in Allen Field House could be in front of a record-breaking crowd.
Before the basketball teams take center stage at Late Night with Roy Williams, the volleyball team will try to pick up its second Big 12 Conference win of the season.
middle hitter Anne Kreimer said that this weekend would be important.
"They're definitely winnable matches, and we've been struggling lately," Kreimer said.
The previous record for the largest crowd to gather for a Kansas volleyball match was set in the team's last pre-Late Night game played, a 1996 victory against Missouri. The crowd of 14, 800 is regarded as the largest crowd ever to watch a Big 12 volleyball match.
But the volleyball team has been enjoying bigger crowds than usual all season. Last weekend against No. 12 Colorado, 1,601 fans — the sixth largest crowd in Kansas volleyball history — gathered to watch the Big 12 battle.
Defensive specialist Kristi Kiyabu said, "In front of a big crowd, it gets more intense, and we get extra support so we are excited about that. We just have to take every match seriously."

San Diego earns first World Series trip in 14 years
Padres headed for the Big Apple
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — So much for all that talk about the San Diego Padres blowing it.
The Padres reached the World Series for the first time since 1984, shutting down Atlanta's comeback bid behind MVP Sterling Hitchcock for a 5-0 victory in Game 6 of the NL championships.
The Braves had won two in a row But the Padres won the series 4-2, with a five-run sixth inning off pitcher Tom Glavine as October hero Jim Levitz drove in the so-head run.
Now it's the Padres who will travel
Tony Gwynn, 38, is the last remaining member from the Padres' other trip to the Series — the five-game wipe-out by Detroit. The eight-time batting champion contributed two hits in the clincher.
to meet New York in Game 1 of the World Series on Saturday.
Despite having reached the postseason a record seven straight times, the Braves have just one World Series championship to show for it. With 106
Braves
Hitchcock came through. Just 9-7 in the regular season and with a history of pitching poorly on three days' rest, Hitchcock improved to 3-0 with a 1.13 ERA in postseason wins against Houston and Atlanta.
Hitchcock, a former Yankee.
allowed only two hits in five innings and struck out eight. Leading 5-0, he left after a pair of lead off walks to start the sixth and then Brian Boehringer, also a former Yankee, relieved and got three quick outs.
With the game scoreless, Glavine and the Braves ruined themselves in the sixth inning.
The inning began when Gwynn grounded out. Greg Vaughan ran to
SAN DIEGO
PADRES
BASEBALL CLUB
Leyritz didn't hit the ball out of the park, but an RBI groundout put the Padres ahead.
Wally Joyner followed with a single and Glavine pitched around Chris Gomez, loading the bases with a two-
out walk. Hitchcock hit a low liner that seemed to confuse Danny Bautista, and Bautista made a late dive and that was no good. The ball clanged off his glove and the Braves watched as two runners scored. That finished Glavine, and Quilvio Veras greeted John Rocker with an RBI single for a 5-0 lead.
The Padres relied on their strong bulpen to close it out the combined two-hitter, with relief ace Trevor Hoffman setting the final three outs.
Having beaten already Houston (102 wins) and Atlanta (106), the 98-win Padres will try to do it again against the Yankees, who set an AL record with 114 victories.
With a combined 212 wins, the Yankees and Padres have the most victories among World Series opponents. The previous mark was 210 by Baltimore (108) and Cincinnati (102) in 1970.
Angry Packers head to the Lions' lair
By Dave Goldberg The Associated Press
Green Bay at Detroit
full two weeks off.
POLYVIRUS HAEMOHYDRALEMIA
They should be grumbling because the Lions have to play the angry
Packers, who lost for the first time Oct. 5 to Minnesota and will have had 10 days to hear about it when they get to the Silverdome
"I told my wife that I thought about retiring after the game. That's how bad it hurts," Green Bay quarterback Brett Favre said of that 37-24 rout. "After the
Super Bowl, I thought about retiring, too."
Favre didn't talk that way after last year's game in Detroit.
G
won 26-15 by the Lions for their fourth win in five regular-season
home games against Green Bay. In that one, Favre tried to throw from his knees and had the ball picked off and returned for a touchdown.
The teams met on opening day at Lambeau Field, and Green Bay won 38-19. That was the game in which Terry Fair of Detroit and Roall Reston had back-to-back kickoff returns for touchdowns
One big difference: Scott Mitchell was at quarterback for the Lions in that game. Charlie Batch will be there this time.
Go with the anger and the 61/2 points by which the Packers are favored.
PACKERS, 30-13

"Serious Drinks for Drinking Seriously"
Kansan staff writer
The libretto for "Xerxes," one of Georg Frederic Handel's most popular operas, is written in Italian, which required students to spend extra time to learn the foreign script.
Students involved with the tonight's production of "Xerox" will showcase the results of extra hours of practice.
"It is hard because instead of singing in English it is all in Italian. The opera doesn't have subtitles, so it

Commentary
D.J. Spooky offers scary combos, while Hole runs itself into ground
By T.R. Miller
Kansan music fiend
Iy "Riddim Warfare"
D.J. Spooky "Riddim Warfare"
Paul Miller, a.k.a. D.J. Spooky, encapsulates this sterile modern world into fragments of goth and hip-hop on his new 21-track album called Riddim Warfare. The album would be more appropriately named Riddle Warfare for its twisted journey between musical genres.
HOLE CELEBRITY SKIN
Spooky's most dazzling element is his irreverence for category. He juxtaposes a lazy lounge guitar into a big-city tough rap track in Object Unknown. "Two people see me green and I need a lawyer," raps guest stars Kool Keith and Sir Menelik, as D. J. Spooky scratches away in the background.
Riddim Warfare
DJ. Spooky — "Riddim Warfare"
★★★ out of ★★★★
Spooky sees the world as a kind of arcade game, especially in Post-Human Sophisthe. The track leads in with a Bauhaus-like, gothic chorus and quickly turns mechanical with a riveting bass track layered with a one-dimensional drum machine beat. The result is a detached look at the contrast of ambition and apathy that depicts the Generation-X caricature.
EJSPOOKY
SHADOWS OF THE SHARK
PRECISION WARRIOR
Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore and the Wu-Tang Clan's Killah Priest are just two of the many contributors on this album.
Expect to see Spoooky cook up something even weirder in the future. The rest of us just will have to sit back and watch in strange fascination.
Hole "Celebrity Skin"
Oh Hole, do you have to hate everything? I can't help but find it a little ironic that alterna-punk goddess Courtney Love wants to dedicate an album to slamming pop culture. I've lost track of how many celebrity appearances Love has made on magazine covers and at award shows.
Celebrity Skin
Hole — "Celebrity skin"
**★** out of **★★**
Nevertheless, Hole has made a name for itself by sarcastic criticism time and time again. The title track is a punkish little anthem: "You want a part of me/ Well, I'm not selling cheap." The typical Hole sound is there — kind of dirty, kind of sweet.
Reasons to be Beautiful has to be a personal anthem. "Love hangs hands/With the bed sheets in her cell/Throw myself on fires for you." That third person approach is pretty tricky,
but I think Courtney's talking about herself?
The typical Hole sound is there — dirty, crunchy and sweet. This album is a lot like cotton candy — it just kind of dissolves away and the only thing you have left is a sticky mess on your hands.
The biggest problem with this album is that I cannot get attached to the songs.
Dying and Boys on the Radio are lackluster lyrically, but Hole's quintessential rock sound comes out. Their latest effort lists several songwriting credits to Smashing Pumpkins' Billy Corgan, a fellow everything hater. The influence is evident and enhances the album but if you ask me, Hole is a lot cooler to look at than to listen to.
Entertainment veterans criticize TV programs
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Who is happy with broadcast television these days?
Apparently not the oncefaithful viewers, who seem to be finding more intriguing viewing on cable.
Also not happy are the annoyed Lincoln scholars and insulted African Americans, who have aimed cannons at a TV gnat — the silly and undoubtedly soon-to-begone "The Secret Diaries of Desmond Puffer."
And not such TV veterans as entertainer-author Steve Allen, the original host of NBC's "The Tonight Show," and producer Norman Lear of "All in the Family" fame.
Ask these two 76-year-olds separately, about the state of the medium and they are blunt about what each sees as its short-changing of viewers. And they have something to say about how to fix what is broken.
Allen condemns TV for "steamy, unmarried sex situations, filthy jokes, perversion, vulgarity and violence," and asks parents to pressure advertisers to shun such programs.
Turning a distaste for current programming into activism, Allen has placed ads in about 50 newspapers nationwide. His photo
appears with this call to arms: "TV is Leading Children Down a Moral Sewer. How You and I Can Stop It."
The ad will run in at least 70 more newspapers as as part of a $500,000 campaign funded by the Parents Television Council, a nonprofit, conservative group based in Los Angeles.
The effort is intended to get advertisers to take responsibility for where they spend their dollars and to seek out more "family-friendly" programming, said the organization's executive director Mark Honig. Allen acknowledges that there are generational differences about popular culture but says it's about more than good taste.
He said companies that advertise should be held accountable for what their ad dollars are supporting.
Although Lear is unconnected with the Parents Television Council or its campaign, he echoes the theme of holding decision-makers responsible for their actions.
The arguments that other TV outlets are available besides the major broadcast networks don't impress Lear.
"It isn't so because there are only the same amount of funnels — the big companies own everything — through which all of the ideas can move to the public," Lear said.

Tonight the Kansas basketball teams will get together for a night of skits and
scrimmages. This is the first time this season you can see the players and coaches
STRUT THEIR STUFF
By Sam Mellinger and Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriters
L
ate Night with Roy Williams is tonight. The doors of Allen Field House will
tonight. The doors of Allen Field House will open at 5 p.m. for the free event, held every year in conjunction with the beginning of basketball practices.
The volleyball team will start things off with a game against Iowa State at 7:30 p.m. Skits will begin around 10:45 p.m. and the men's basketball team will scrimmage at 12:01 a.m. The scrimmage is the first opportunity for the public to see the team play and the last before their first exhibition game Nov. 7 against the California All-Stars at
All-Stars Allen Field House.
Night has become a tradition at Kansas, dating back to Larry Brown's coaching days in the mid-1980s. The last few years, crowds near or at capacity have showed for the event.
Some memorable Late Nights have included Greg Ostertag's rendition of "Friends in Low Places" as a freshman and Scot Pollard's proposal to his girlfriend two years ago.
"It's become quite a production with the players doing different skits," said Rick Mullen, director of promotions.
Those involved have been keeping their plans secret, but sophomore Kenny Gregory will wear an afro-wig for a "Soul Train" skit.
Senior T.J. Pugh's sprained foot wil
around during the skirts.
"I don't even know
if I can do it," he said. "I might just pull something one-legged or something like that but I doubt if I'll be out there to do anything."
Traditionally, the men's team has been able to convince coach Roy Williams to join them in a dance party at center court toward the end of the skits.
Last year I wasn't really looking forward to it." Gregory said. "I was a freshman. I was kind of nervous about making myself look like a fool. This year I'm really looking forward to it, I think it will be a lot of fun."
But as for anything more than "Soul Train," the players are keeping it secret. "That's classified information," joked junior Heather Fletcher. "But there will be a lot of dancing and a lot of fun."
Those two things don't necessarily have to go together, as so pho more.
Casey Pruitt can testify.
"I'm the worst dancer in the world," she said. "But I'm having a lot of fun doing it, even with everybody laughing at me."
KU students who attend will have the chance to walk away with more than a Late Night T-shirt. Just before the men's team scrimmages, a student will be randomly
selected to shoot a three pointer for three tuition free semesters.

Topeka man indicted for Lawrence robberies
A 26-year-old Topeka man was indicted Wednesday by the U.S. Attorney's Office in connection with several robberies in Lawrence and Topeka.
Shawn Stewart was indicted on 12 separate federal charges stemming from the Sept. 1 robbery of Shark's Surf Shop, 813 Massachusetts St.; the Aug. 23 robbery of the Lawrence Pizza Co., 601 Kasold Drive; and several Topeka robberies, Lawrence police said.
Topeka police would not release the names of the Topeka businesses that were burglarized.
Authorities first arrested Stewart for aggrassed robbery Sept. 4, in Topeka.
Topeka police then contacted the Lawrence police, who determined that Stewart matched the description of the man who robbed the surf shop.
The two departments then joined the FBI, the Douglas County District Attorney's Office and the U.S. Attorney's office in the investigation.
Authorities connected Stewart with the Lawrence Pizza Co. robbery and several Topela robbers, Lawrence police said. He was then indicted.

Flood damages stand at nearly $14 million
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The flash flooding that took 11 lives in the Kansas City metropolitan area also destroyed nearly $14 million worth of uninsured property, damaged or destroyed more than a thousand homes and apartments and sent hundreds of families to the American Red Cross for help.
Emergency personnel said those figures could rise as assessment teams continue to evaluate damage to public property, including bridges, streets and buildings.
The American Red Cross said 1,253 homes and apartments were damaged or destroyed. The Red Cross has opened 638 cases of individuals or families needing emergency aid. By Tuesday, only 24 cases had been closed.
Missouri emergency management officials estimated roughly $10 million in uninsured losses to individuals and businesses in Jackson, Clay and Carroll counties. Kansas officials estimated damage to uninsured private property at $3.8 million and public property damage at $5.5 million.
Disabled monitor stalled response to KC flooding
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A monitoring system predicted flash flooding at least 30 minutes before seven people were swept to their deaths in Brush Creek last week, officials said.
Although the Kansas City Fire Department never got the information because someone unplugged part of the warning system from an electrical outlet, Fire Chief Rick Brisbin said he doubted firefighters could have responded any faster than they did.
Even if the warning system hadn't been unplugged, Brisbin acknowledged Wednesday that the city had no contingency plans to deal with flash flooding on Brush Creek — despite a 1977 flood that killed 25 and devastated the Country Club Plaza.
Brisbin said the receiving equipment for the $275,000 warning system was unplugged at the fire department by an employee who was working on the equipment and later forgot to reconnect it. No data were reported on city terminals at the fire communications center.
However, the data were recorded at the weather service office. Forecasters there used information from that system and other sources to issue flash-flood warnings for Jackson County beginning as early as 2:58 p.m. on Oct. 4.
today, citing increasing caution by lenders and an uncertain climate in financial markets.
The cut made a ho-hum rally on Wall Street explosive. The Dow Jones average of industrial stocks had been up about 100 points before the announcement and closed 331 points higher at 8,299. Its best finish since August, 26.
In recent years, it has been extremely rare for the Fed to change interest rates in between its eight regularly scheduled policy-setting meetings. The last such move came in 1994.
The fact that it changed again is a clear sign of growing concern about the economy.
Fed cuts interest rates; stocks surge 331 points
WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve System cut short-term interest rates by a quarter percentage point
The Fed cut the overnight rate on loans between banks, the federal funds rate, to 5 percent. It cut the discount rate on its own loans to banks to 4.75 percent.
The cut is the second within the past three weeks. The central bank cut rates for the first time in nearly three years on Sept. 29 by a quarter point.
Economists are forecasting that the robust economic growth of nearly 4 per cent, enjoyed by Americans during 1996, 1997 and the early part of this year, would lapse to about half that.

Stolen cable TV sparks indictment
Some of the more serious disagreements that were not resolved until the end concerned the 2000 census, family planning and the environment.
The Associated Press
By Keith Burner
Kanson staff writer
A 29-year-old Lawrence man was indicted by a federal grand jury Wednesday for selling devices used to steal cable television, costing a local cable provider hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Curtis James Hollis was indicted on nine counts of unauthorized assistance in intercepting cable service for the purpose of private financial gain, Lawrence police said.
Police would not elaborate on the loss, because the investigation is not yet complete.
Sunflower Cablevision, 644 New Hampshire, contacted the Lawrence police department on Dec. 1, 1997 and said
it had discovered cable converter boxes that had been illegally programmed to steal services, police said.
Lawrence police then contacted the FBI, and they began a joint investigation into the thefts.
"It's not unusual to involve the FBI in cases in which they have primary jurisdiction," said Lawrence Police Chief Ron Olin.
During the investigation, the two agencies interviewed more than 50 people. The interviews turned up the evidence needed to indict Hollis.
Hollis is the prime suspect in the continuing investigation, but not the only suspect. Through the course of the interviews, the two agencies also identified other suspects.
"Many of those suspects
will be prosecuted locally," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Wheeler said that was because most of the charges were local, such as theft of services.
The federal charges will be handed out to those who made it possible to steal the services, not those who simply took advantage of getting free cable.
Police have not released information on the other suspects.
"We're not going to indict somebody just because they bought a box and got free HBO." Wheeler said.
James Risner, director of engineering for Sunflower Cablevision, said that Hollis was never an employee of the company, but would not comment further.
ON THE RECORD
A KU student's bicycle was stolen Tuesday morning in the 1000 block of Rhode Island Street, Lawrence police said. The bicycle was valued at $600.
A Parking Department vehicle rolled into a KU student's vehicle on Sept. 5 in Lot 94, east of Memorial Stadium, the KU Public Safety Office said. The driver of the Parking Department truck said she got out of the vehicle because she thought it was in park.
A KU student rear-ended a KU employee who had stopped at a crosswalk to yield to pedestrians at 9 p.m. Oct. 5 on Jayhawk Boulevard, west of Poplar Lane, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage was estimated at about $500.
A KU student was driving southbound on Naismith Drive at 10:45 a.m. Oct. 13 when an unknown vehicle struck her vehicle and left the scene, the KU Public Safety Office said.
A KU student's bicycle was stolen and the bicycle lock damaged between 8 a.m. Oct. 1 and 11:10 a.m. Oct. 14 outside McCollum Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The stolen bicycle was valued at $200. The damage was estimated at $7.
A KU student's 15 CDs, CD case and $15 were stolen from the student's vehicle between 8:30 p.m. Oct. 13 and 5:30 p.m. Oct. 14 in Lot 111, west of Corbin Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said.

University strikes $1.1 million deal for Smith Hall
By Pallavi Agarwal Kanson staff writer
Smith Hall is now part and parcel of the University of Kansas.
The building, which houses the Religious Studies Department, was bought by the University Wednesday for $1.1 million from the Kansas Bible Chair, an agency of the Christian Church of Kansas.
It was token amount, given with the understanding that the building would be used only for religious studies, said Rose Marino, Associate General Counsel of the University.
The agency has been leasing the building to the University for one dollar per year since the 1970s.
She said the deal made sense because the land was contiguous to the University, and it would not to lose it to an outside agency.
It was the last University building housing classrooms that had been leased by the University, said Jim Modig, director of Design & Construction Management.
"We hope that with the change of ownership, long-term maintenance issues can be solved," said Tim Miller, chairperson of the religious studies department.
Miller said heating and cooling was a problem with the building, and a leaky roof sometimes caused water to pour into the library, the reading room and a classroom.
Under the lease agreement, the University was in charge of indoor maintenance while the owner managed all outside maintenance work, said Rich Givens, assistant provost.
The University embarked upon outside maintenance work this summer when the stained glass window and protective windows installed around it were repaired. Glens said.
"It became difficult for the owner to maintain it, so we decided to buy it." he said.
Maintenance work under the University's "Crumbling Classroom" program has given the library in the building a new carpet with maintenance work in some of the classrooms, Givens said.
Marino said payments would be done in installments of $55,000 every year for the next 20 years.
The funds will be acquired from the operating budget of the University, she said.
A farmhouse resided in the place where the building now stands. The farmhouse, called Myers Hall, was torn down in 1967, to make way for the building. Miller said.
The building acquired the name from Irma Smith, who is believed to have donated money for its construction. Marino said.
Givens said that the actual cost of the building was twice the amount paid, but the owners took into account the maintenance costs that the University would have to undertake.
Victims' lives will be remembered used for petitioning better legislation
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Campus and Lawrence groups are remembering victims of alleged hate crimes and fighting the hatred that caused their deaths.
The KU Student Development Center, in cooperation with five other campus groups, today will commemorate the lives of Matthew Shepard, a University of Wyoming student who was beaten to death in Wyoming, and James Byrd, who was dragged to death in Jasper, Texas, this summer.
Mary Ann Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said the commemoration, from 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. in front of Wescoe Hall, was needed, because the deaths had shaken people on campus.
"I think that it has reminded us that hatred like this is not as far below the surface as we would like to think," she said. "This particular incident didn't happen in Lawrence, but it certainly
"This particular incident didn't happen in Lawrence,but it certainly could if we are not aware of the fact that hatred exists everywhere."

sould if we are not aware of the fact that hatred exists everywhere."
Rasnak said she hoped the commemoration would help people to work through their grief about the recent events.
The service will include an informational display about the lives and deaths of Shepard and Byrd, and tables will be set up for students to write messages of support and condolences to their families. Petitions for national hate crime legislation also will be available.
Also, at 1:30 p.m. m. Albert Gerken, professor of music and dance, will toll 21 chimes, one for each year of Shepard's life, Rosak said.
The Freedom Coalition, a Lawrence civil rights group, will hold a Candlelight Vigil Against Hate at 7 tonight in front of Lawrence City Hall, at Sixth and Massachusetts streets.
The vigil will honor Shepard, Byrd and all victims of hate crimes, and also will call for state and national hate crimes prevention legislation.
Speakers from the University and Lawrence organizations will address the vigil, and local and state politicians will be invited to speak.
Hate crimes happen often in Lawrence, said Chris Robinson, a member of the Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates and of the Freedom Coalition, a Lawrence civil rights group.
"I know people personally who have been harassed. It happens all the time," she said. "People are afraid to report it."
There are two events commemorating the deaths of Matthew Shepard and James Byrd today:

but they must report it for anything to be done about it."
She said it was in every student's interest to speak out against hate crimes.
"Hatred affects everyone, anyone can be a target of hatred," she said.
Chancellor promotes educational alliance
Hemenway supports cooperation among Kansas institutions
By Jason Pearce
Kanson staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway stood before members of the Kansas Board of Regents yesterday in Emporia and presented specific reasons why they should support the development of a coordinating body for higher education.
"We have reached a point in this process where we should focus on what needs to be accomplished," Hemenway said at the monthly meeting, which was held on the campus of Emporia State University.
dination and cooperation between universities, community colleges and vocational-technical schools.
Hemenway said that even though differences existed between state universities and community colleges, it was still a defafo system of governance.
The coordinating body, which is part of a plan designed by chancellors and presidents at the six public universities and 19 community colleges, would be a separate entity from the Regents and would focus on coor-
"Every single university and community college can show the benefits of having a system with high access, high quality and low cost." he said.
The current system is lacking coordination and state-wide master planning between the different entities, Hemenway said.
Fort Hays State University president Ed Hammond also spoke on behalf of the state universities and community colleges. Hammond said that all the efforts by the Regents and school administrators should promote a seamless system of education.
"This coordinating body would be minimally staffed, and it does not need a large bureaucracy," he said.
Hammond presented an amended version of the plan — Blueprint for the Future of Kansas Higher Education — this week to a state task force. The Governor's Task Force on Higher Education Structure for Excellence will discuss the blueprint and make recommendations to the Legislature in January on how to Kansas' system of higher education.
After hearing the presentation from Hammond and Henway and discussing its implications, board members developed a subcommittee — staffed by chairman Bill Docking, Regent Harry Craig and Kansas State University President Jon Wefald — that will put into writing the opinions on 12 issues of the blueprint.
This subcommittee will present its views on the blueprint at the Nov. 5 meeting of the Governor's task force.
Regents member Murray Lull, although he agreed with the basic premise for the blueprint, brought up the issue of funding a new coordinating body.
"If there is a finite amount of state funding from the Legislature," he said. "It may not allow everyone to get what they want."
Lull said that added Regents' expenditures, including a proposed faculty salary increase and higher operating expenses, could limit the amount of money available for one part of higher education.
IN OTHER BUSINESS:
THE REGENTS:
Approved a request by the University of Kansas to establish the Global Center for Marketing Communications and Journalism. The center will be developed by the School of Journalism and Mass Communications and funded by federal grants
Delayed a vote on a new intellectual property policy for Regents universities until the November meeting.
- Released official fall 1998 enrollment numbers. The entire Regents system had 80,361 students, or 64,864 full-time equivalent students.
"The Regents has six universities to support today," Lull said. "With a new body to fund, we will have to be very persuasive with the Legislature to get the funds we need."

KU women's athletics deserve praise
Thirty years ago, the University of Kansas lit the torch of women's athletics.
On an operating budget of just $2,000, the University started women's field hockey, volleyball, basketball, softball, gymnastics, swimming, track and field, and tennis.
Today the operating budget is in the millions of dollars and although field hockey and gymnastics are gone, soccer and rowing have taken their place.
Thirty years ago, women's coaches drove team buses themselves to transport players from city to city because there was no money to hire charters. Teams were forced to schedule games close to home so travel would be easy. Competing far away was a rarity and a luxury.
Often, women's teams drove in
This weekend marks the 30th anniversary of women's athletics at the University.
cramped cars and buses overnight or days without stopping often because hotel rooms could not be paid for.
But today, that is no longer. Plush buses are chartered to take teams to nearby states and airplanes are used to fly teams to far away competition. Distance is rarely an obstacle and coaches rarely drive themselves and their teams.
Thirty years ago, people laughed when a woman said she wanted to play collegiate sports. She was chided and told the sports arena was for men. But today, woman have shown that they
have the same heart and competitive spirit as men. Women have proven they can take a ball to the hoop or kick a soccer goal just as well as any man.
And in the 30 years since the University implemented athletics, the athletic department has shown its support. Kansas is one of just a handful of schools in the country that satisfies Title IX, the federal law mandating equal athletic opportunity for men and women.
The 1998-99 academic year marks the 30th anniversary of Women's Intercollegiate Sports at the University.
The University has come a long way and all the women who have worn crimson and blue and represented the University, when many people didn't realize how hard these women were working deserve praise of all for their dedication.

Feedback
University has no right to control Web sites
Troubling signs abound that some KU officials want to appoint themselves as the "Information Highway Patrol," ready to ticket net surfers for libel, profanity, political incorrectness and other speech they find inappropriate.
the most recent Net Cop incident involved a feisty Web site set up by Templin Hall residents upset with hall governance. Ken Stoner, director of student housing, found allegedly libulous quotes at the site to be "upsetting," according to the Kansan. He complained to Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor for information services, who discussed the offending site with the KU Campus Internet Association.
The students removed the offending quotes, and Niebaum suggested that new KU content guidelines now being discussed could prevent such future problems — perhaps by limiting student Web sites to content related to the University's missions of research, instruction and service.
Such a policy would be futile and impractical when one considers the billions of ones and zeroes bouncing around this interactive electronic beehive we all inhabit. The policy also would be contrary to another vital KU mission: to serve as a freewheeling forum for free expression.
The First Amendment prohibits government agencies such as KU from judging and censoring the content of speech — particularly political messages such as those posted by the disgruntled hall residents. If those who create Web sites defame a KU official or anyone else, that person can sue the author of the message for libel. Terroristic threats can be prosecuted and punished regardless of the medium used to communicate them. Racist, sexist and homophobic messages can teach us how wrong-headed those ideas are, and they can be answered resoundingly by those of us who dis
agree.
Ironically, a University policy that asserts control over the content of web sites, e-mail or other messages conveyed over KU's computer networks could have the unintended result of making the University legally responsible for libel, invasion of privacy, terroristic threats or other offending words posted by individual users.
The fact that this new medium relies on the use of University computer equipment is no more significant than the use of the lawn in front of Strong Hall for gory anti-abortion displays, the Lied Center stage for controversial speakers, or Stauffer-Flint Hall to house The University Daily Kansan.
The University can't create policies that dictate messages at political rallies, the topics of speakers, or the content of the Kansan, and it has no business deciding what messages are appropriate on student or faculty Web sites.

Perspective
Beating in Wyoming a wake-up call for all
weekend, it's just not worthwhile. My roommate and I planned to go back for Wyoming's homecoming, which was last weekend, to see friends and family. During the drive, I had no idea what was happening at home.
[Blank]
Matthew Shepard's death had shaken the entire state. We stopped in Cheyenne before continuing on to Laramie, only to have my parents tell us about Shepard's
Laramie is a small town. After attending Washington for three years, I had made lots of friends and acquaintances. In short, I prayed that I didn't know anyone associated with the crime.
beating. When my mother could not remember the names of the victim or of the thugs that beat him, I remember feeling my stomach suddenly fall down into my knees.
There was a slight sense of relief when I did not know any of the names, but I still had a desire to know more. Laramie was a three ring circus. There were banners flying from windows reading "Hate is not a Wyoming Value" and copies of the student newspaper everywhere with headlines reading "Student beaten."
The national media has called it a hate crime. I wanted to refute that desperately. I sought advice from my roommates, professors and peers on how to write an article supporting this as a vicious robbery. For hours I stared at the computer screen and tried. I made myself sick trying because writing it from that angle was impossible.
A person doesn't get strung up from a fence to die after being robbed. A person is not made to beg for his life after being robbed. A person's skull isn't crushed because somebody wants a wallet. All of it made me sick, and I wondered, if this could happen where I used to feel safe and comfortable, could it happen anywhere.
That one was what got to me. I had grown up in Cheyenne, about 50 miles away from Laramie, and Laramie was my second home. This brutal beating was not something that happened near my family and friends. Crimes like this were reserved for somewhere else — big cities, down south, farther north, anywhere else.
Shepard was beaten because he was gay. There was no other way to acknowledge it. Those two men convinced Shepard they were gay so he would leave with them. A girlfriend of one of the men told authorities they wanted to get back at Shepard for making a pass at them and for embarrassing them in front of their friends. Once Shepard got in their truck, he was pistol-shipped over the head after being told, "I'm not gay — and you just got jacked."
wno, at 5 feet 2 inches tall and barely 100 pounds, was smaller than most women.
After I talked to one of my friends who was bartending at the last place Shepard was seen alive, I found out the two men were filthy, with grubby hands as though they had not showered in days. After beating Shepard, they stole his shoes, his wallet and went to his house to continue to rob him. They just wanted his money, right?
During the homecoming parade, a crowd of about 500 people had gathered to march in support of Shepard many holding signs such as "Straight but not stupid" and "Wake up Wyoming, hate happens right here."
At first I tried to rationalize it by saying it was just a savage robbery that had gone a little too far. I was prepared to come back and defend my state and my former college by telling everyone that the accused men were not students, but that they were poor, high school dropouts with no place to turn but stealing. They picked on a small kid,
Could this happen in Lawrence?
I chose the University of Kansas because it was similar to Wyoming, just on a slightly larger scale. Lawrence is moderately liberal town in a conservative state. People are friendly and a person can walk down the street at night and usually feel safe.
I don't feel safe anymore. This crime could have happened anywhere. I hope the country realizes this and does not isolate this incident to Wyoming.
Gays and lesbians are beaten every day because of their sexual preference. Others are beaten because of their race or religion. It's scary to think that our world is stepping into the new millennium by taking so many steps backward.

Why should I spend valuable hours of my life cramming my head with information that will be useless more weeks from now when I could be spending quality time with 150 friends I never knew I had? It's called networking. I'm learning skills that will help me make valuable connections later in life.
ing that the brain cells I kill contain no information I need for my test on Friday.
I mean, I don't think businesses today really appreciate the amount of teamwork students learn during these recreational outings. There's a large amount of group coordination that takes place when lifting somebody upside down above a beer keg.
As the evening moves on, the crowd begins to dispense into smaller focus groups. My mind sails across the sea of intoxication and I realize that I haven't heard a single word the guy in front of me has said. Much like classroom lectures, I find myself occasionally nodding off while internally pondering life's bigger questions.

does that work. Lubricating my social skills even further. I soon decide to actively participate in other conversations.
"Look, the Campanile is a giant penis. I'm sorry, but there's something wrong with you if you don't see that."
Eventually, somebody passes around a cigarette that isn't really a cigarette, and I find myself a comfortable patch of concrete to collect my thoughts.
Silence from the crowd, and only the
Perhaps the most sobering moments occur during these conversations with highly intoxicated people. I, myself, am looking forward to unemployment after college, but I'd rather not find out that the guy who keeps saying he loves me is going to be a doctor someday.
I'm just waiting for the time I need my appendix taken out and the man with the knife says, "Hey, you were the guy with all the pretzels. Whew, I can hardly remember that night. In fact, there's a lot about college I don't remember. Ha, ha, ha."
Checking my watch, I see that the police are due to show up any minute, and once again, valuable work skills are to be put on display. "Yes, sir, we'll turn the music down. Oh, it's my roommate's birthday. We're only accepting 'donations.'"
Tired and weary, I finally end my evening by finding my ride home. The group of designated drivers is never difficult to spot. They're the only ones speaking in complete sentences.
Sure, my speech is slurred and I can't see straight, but I'm having fun, right? Instead of a boring evening at home, I'm interacting with my fellow students in a healthy social atmosphere. The lamp post seems to agree, and I'm happy.
cheap, imitation techno-dance music can be heard as I realize that maybe I should try that "thinking before speaking" thing again.
After a while, I feel brave enough to move about the crowd. Motivation comes from a bag of pretzels that I'm sure whoever lives here won't mind me sharing. Before long, I'm the best friend of anybody with a low tolerance.
And so the evening has ended. Soon enough, school, work and my body's internal defense system will all make me pay for neglecting my adult responsibilities. But that will happen in the morning. For now, I make a sandwich, see what movies are on late-night cable, and maybe think about sleeping.
I am shunned.

Debaters rebut, support affirmative action laws
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
Twenty University of Kansas students have joined the national chorus for and against sexual harassment laws in the workplace and the protection of minorities there.
But the job of Chrissy Meather, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, sometimes requires her to move away from her gender and speak against legislation that creates more protection for minorities.
Meather does not mind. A debate is a debate, she said.
Along with 19 other University students, Meether is part of the KU Debate team. One of the country's top-seeded debate teams, it also is one of the University's best-secured teams, said Scott Harris, director of forensics at the department of communication studies.
The team ranked third and fifth this spring at the two National Championships, the most prestigious tournaments in the debating world. Harris said.
"In the last 50 years, KU has been the only team in the country to have qualified for the National Championships every year," he said.
The team is in the midst of the most grueling month of the debating season, involving a 20 to 40-hour workload for each team member and weekends spent traveling around the country to tourments.
The team will travel this weekend to Emporia State University where local and national teams will compete. Harris said.
This year, debaters dispute the finer points of Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which governs race and gender discrimination in the workplace.
Debating strategies closely resemble courtroom strategies, except the debate teams have to argue both for and against the given topic, Harris said.
The two-person teams pick court rulings as case studies for their arguments, he said.
Research, which starts in the summer, consists of plowing through law libraries and the World Wide Web, said Rich McCollum. Lawrence graduate student and team coach.
Tournaments are held every weekend in October, and many of the team members have had to miss classes.
"You have to make a concerted effort to make up for your time," said Roger Flores, Coffeyville senior.
The team is open to all interested students and does not require enrollment in any classes. Harris said.
As the team delves into research on affirmative action, some, such as McCollum, see legislative trends emerging in favor of employers.
"This is because of a conservative judictory," he said.

Shots will be given from 1 to 3 p.m. and from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Wednesday in Ekdahl Dining Commons. The shot costs $5 and students can pay with cash or check.
Students on the University of Kansas Medical Center campus don't even have to leave their cars.
From 8 a.m. to noon Saturday, students on the Med Center campus can receive a free flu vaccination during the drive-through clinic at 39th and Rainbow Boulevard in Kansas City, Kan. No appointment is necessary.
Because the flu season runs from November to April, mid-October is the best time of year to receive the vaccination, said Patrick Moriarty, physician and assistant professor of internal medicine for the Med Center.
"Since the body's immune system takes time to respond to the vaccine, it should be given one to two weeks before the flu season begins to stimulate enough antibodies to prevent infection," he said. "One vaccination at the right time is usually enough to last the average person the entire flu season."
Randall Rock, chief of staff for Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that people

with asthma and smokers with a cough or bronchitis were at high risk to contract the flu and should receive the vaccination.
Contrary to what some may believe, the vaccine cannot give a person the flu because it is made from inactive viruses. However, Rock said, people's arms may ache after the shot, but those side effects are minimal. He said some people also falsely believed that the flu was a gastrointestinal virus, referring to it as the stomach flu. Rock described the flu as primarily a respiratory virus.
Moriarty stressed that receiving a flu shot that could decrease sickness during the next four to six months couldn't hurt.
"There is nothing worse than being a student and having to study and being sick," he said.
Boeing CEO discusses rapid industry changes
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
Philip M. Condit, chief executive officer of The Boeing Company, challenged the Lawrence and University of Kansas community to prepare for the rapidly changing aerospace industry.
"We are an industry that went from launching the first satellite, Sputnik, to putting a man on the moon in a span of 12 years." Condit said.
The Boeing CEO spoke to a crowd of about 350 last night at the Lied Center. The lecture, "Change and Challenge: Engineering the 21st Century," was sponsored by the School of Business and the School of Engineering.
Condit said that employees with a combined education in engineering and business had an advantage with the four C's: cost, collaboration, communication and continuous learning.
"The four C's define what business and engineering needs to be in the next century," Condit said.
Customers were demanding better value in the airline industry, which was why change was necessary, he said.
Bill Lewis, business lecturer, agreed with Condit.
"A broad education is essential." Lewis said.
"An engineering background without a business background is not as good as having both."
Condit's joined the Boeing company in 1965 as an aerodynamics engineer on the Supersonic Transport program. He said that economics was one factor delaying or preventing the development of worldwide supersonic transport.
Another reason was that people used airplanes as an efficient work place.
"It used to take a book along when I flew, then it switched to a laptop," Condit said. "Now there's a phone system that allows me to be online. We use airplanes as a place of work."

Students can kick habit with 'No-Nag' program
Abby Peck, Lenene senior, said she would definitely quit smoking — someday.
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
She said her half-pack-a-day habit started four years ago because all her friends smoked.
"I was not a heavy drinker, so it gave me something to do in bars," she said.
Because quitting is so difficult, students need a game plan before they quit. Julie Francis, a health promotions educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said students needed to be psychologically prepared to quit.
Watkins offers a "No-Nag" program, with one-hour counseling sessions to give people a plan for not smoking.
Francis suggested that students implement healthy diversions, such as exercise, into daily routines before quitting.
"Exercise gives you some of the same benefits as smoking," Francis said. "It relaxes you and helps you handle stressful situations better."
If students taper off rather than quit cold, she said they might set a small goal first, such as not smoking on one of their daily
And, she suggested that students create no smoking zones by deciding not to smoke in one area, such as the bedroom, and then expanding to other areas.
breaks between classes.
Because people often smoke while at bars, after a meal or with a cup of coffee, the habit can be tough to break.
"Every time I drink, I have to smoke," said Ryan Zimmerman, an Overland Park senior who has smoked about 10 cigarettes a day for four years. "It's part habit and part association with drinking, so now I'm not just smoking socially, it's all the time."
In Kansas, college-age students represent a large percentage of adult smokers.
A 1996 study by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment said 29 percent of the males and 18 percent of females ages 18 to 24 smoked.
Watkins also offers aids such as Nicorette and Nicoderm gum and Nicotrol Patches, which can be purchased over the counter. It also has Nicotrol Nasal Spray and Zyban, an anti-depressant drug found to decrease the desire to smoke, both by prescription.
For more information on Watkin's "No Nag" program, contact Francis at 864-9572.

Council advocates breast cancer awareness
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
It's Breast Cancer Awareness month, and although people at the University of Kansas may be wearing pink ribbons, some are concerned if students really are paying attention.
Eve Lane, St. Louis sophomore, said she wouldn't have paid attention to the disease if her mother had not been diagnosed with cancer.
"Before my mother had breast cancer, I thought it was something for women in their 30s, 40s or 50s," she said.
Lane worked yesterday at a breast cancer information table sponsored by the KU chapter of the National Council of Negro Women. Members of the council will be stationed at an information table again today from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the fourth floor lobby in the Kansas Union.
that interest had been low.
She said that some students picked up ribbons from the table but
Katherine Rose-Mocky, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that because of low student interest in breast cancer, the center was focusing on women's health issues in general in honor of the month.
Deb Howes, health educator at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said college-age women should pay attention to breast cancer.
"Last year we did a program on breast cancer and found we didn't get a real big turnout," she said. "A lot of students at this age don't think of breast cancer as an ongoing issue for them."
"It's extremely important for college students," she said. "Sure, there's not a lot of individuals who have it in their college years, but what's really important is that students start now to do self breast exams."
She said college-age women should establish a routine of
monthly self-exams and clinical exams from a doctor or nurse every three years.
Some young women may not pay attention to cancer until it strikes close to home, though.
Angel Dew, Atchison freshman, said she had not paid attention to the disease until she had to have a thyroid tumor surgically removed.
"That's what made me realize it was serious," she said.
Eva Guggemos, Petaluma, Calif., senior, said that she thought media coverage had made people aware of the disease but that most still did not take it seriously.
"People are aware it can happen, but they don't think it will happen to them or to their mothers," she said.
Guggemos said that regardless of the importance of the issue, students might always be apathetic to breast cancer.
"No matter what it is, people don't think it can happen to them," she said.
SELF-EXAMINATION
Here are the steps for a breast self exam:
1. Check breasts about one week after menstruation.
2. Press firmly with the pads of their fingers, first moving the left hand over the right breast in a circle and including the armpit.
3. Next check the left breast with
the right hand in the same way. Women also should look at their breasts in a mirror noting any changes in appearance.
If women find any lumps, thickenings or changes, they should can sult a doctor immediately. Most breast lumps are not cancerous, but to be sure, consult a doctor.
But, to be sure, consult a doctor. Regular examination will enable a woman to detect changes and notify her doctor. Breast cancer can be treated successfully if discovered early.

Haskell legislation leads to hope, concern
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
New legislation has Haskell Indian Nations University president Bob Martin looking to the future and Haskell employees looking for answers.
The Native American Higher Education Improvement Act, sponsored by U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., passed through the U.S. Senate this week.
Martin said the bill was a step forward in Haskell's evolution into a four-year university. But the teachers' union, the Local 45 National Federation of Federal Employees, said it had not received enough information to support it.
If signed into law, the act would allow Haskell and the Southwestern Polytechnic Institute in New Mexico to be exempt from federal hiring regulations and to establish their own personnel systems.
"This will provide us with the flexibility to recruit and retain staff," Martin said.
However, current staff aren't as pleased with the bill. Local 45 president Mike Tosee said the union's main objection was the way it was
"People would like to understand it better," he said. "We've been ignored."
handled by Snowbarger.
Tosee said the union had attempted several times to contact Snowbarger but received no response.
Martin said the change would cause some apprehension and resistance on campus but that it ultimately would improve education at Haskell.
In a letter to President Clinton, Snowbarger important passage of the bill was important to students at the two federally-operated Native American universities.
NATIVE AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION IMPROVEMENT ACT
What: A bill that would allow
Haskell Indian Nations University and Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute to create demonstration projects to develop their own personnel systems.
Sponsored by Kansas Congressman Vince Snowbarger
■ Passed House of Representatives Oct. 6, 1998
■ Passed Senate Oct. 14, 1998
■ Will become law in 10 days if President Clinton has not vetoed it or signed it.
Tosee said union employees were not necessarily against the legislation but that they were disillusioned by the lack of response from Snowbarger. He said Martin had responded
to their concerns by saying planning would been when the bill became law.
"It could be a good deal." Tosee said.
"We don't know. Anybody would like to know what they're getting into."

By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Friends and family of Kevin S. Kief, a 1988 graduate in economics, will be in Lawrence this weekend to remember Kief's life, his appreciation of the outdoors and his simplistic nature at the memorial.
Kief's friend Chris Arth has set up a memorial scholarship fund in Kief's name, and a tree will be planted in his honor at

Arth said that the scholarship would be
awarded to third or fourth year students who majored in finance, international business or journalism. Contributions to the scholarship fund can be sent in memory of Kleff to St. Lawrence Catholic Center.
Kief and Arth graduated from Olathe South High School in 1983.
Laura Montgomery, Kief's friend, said Klef was a member of the Delta Tau Delta fraternity.
After graduating, Kief married Susan Hermann in 1989 and pursued a career in the grain trading industry with the Harvest Oat and Bunge Corporation in Minneapolis. Mim
When Kief and Hermann divorced, Kief returned to Lawrence before accepting a position this summer at the Continental Grain Company in New York.
Kief was flying on Swissair Flight 111 to Geneva, Switzerland, on business.
Kief's co-workers at Continental described him as intuitive and successful.
Services will be at 1 p.m. Saturday at St.

Kief's family has requested that contributions be sent to the scholarship fund in lieu of flowers.
Student researches device that tracks missing people
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
A KU graduate student is researching the effectiveness of a device that originally tracked the migration patterns of animals and now is used to find missing people.
CareTrak, established in 1989, is used to locate people who wander because of mental disabilities such as Alzheimer's disease and autism.
Pamela Kaverius, a graduate research assistant at the University Gerontology Center, is conducting evaluative testing in Lawrence of how the device affects the caregiver and the person with the disability.
She said that CareTrak would improve residential safety and the quality of life for people suffering from disorientation conditions.
Individuals who use the system are identified by a bracelet on their wrist. This bracelet transmits a signal, allowing rescuers to locate the missing person.
Through her research, Xaverius has installed the system in three different settings in Lawrence: a nursing home, a group home and an individual home.
Xavierius said that one of her participants was
very excited to use the system because of his wife's disorientation.
"He has found his wife in pretty dangerous situations. Xavierus said.
She said that in the middle of the summer the man's wife wandered away and climbed into a car. The heat could have been fatal, she said.
The CareTrak system, Xaverius said, is a dream come true for this man.
it's just so rewarding to work with him, because I know that I am making a difference in his life." Xaverius said.
Richard Blanchard, operations manager for CareTrak, said that the system had been successful around the country and was used in several veteran's homes. He said that CareTrak also was used in search and rescue missions.
Greg Pratt, chief of the Mountain Rescue Specialized Team in Stokes County, N.C., said that he had used the system for two years and had found 15 missing persons through the use of CareTrak.
Pratt said that the system also had decreased the time it took to locate a missing person from several hours to a few minutes.
Xaverius's research is financed by a grant from the National Institute of Aging.

A member of the 1977 78 women's golf team hits toward the green.
arlene Mawson didn't know
She didn't know what would happen when she was given the responsibilities of starting a women's athletic program at the University of Kansas in 1968.
She didn't know the obstacles ahead of her, but she knew that she had to give it a shot.
"I was young then," she says now. "When you're young, you think that anything is possible."
Mawson left the University in 1990 after 22 years, but the mark she made on women's athletics will be on display this weekend as the University celebrates 30 years of women's intercollegiate sports.
The anniversary will be recognized throughout the athletic season, with the festivities hitting a high note tomorrow when former athletes and coaches will be honored.
The female involvement in sports that will be celebrated this year was something Mawson saw as natural.
She grew up playing sports — "softball during the outdoor season, basketball during the indoor" — and thought she could continue her love for athletics when she attended college.
Mawson grew up in the 1960s, a time when society thought a woman's place was in the home and not on the basketball court or softball diamond.
Mawson didn't care about popular opinion, so she went to play basketball for the Kansas City Piperettes, an AAA basketball team where current Kansas women's basketball coach Marian Washington played.
Mawson also played in a Kansas City Parks and Recreation volleyball league and was president of a bowling association.
"I was doing some kind of sport all the time," said Mawson, now physical education department chairwoman at Illinois State University. "I grew up playing competitively and didn't realize that women didn't have a lot of opportunities in sports until I got to college. I knew what it was like to play competitively, and I wanted to bring that to the collegiate level. It will always be my passion to help promote women's sports."
Members of the 1973-74 women's field hockey team scramble to gain possession of the ball. The field hockey program was cancelled.
That passion was the reason Mawson was in charge of the $2,000 earmarked to start a women's athletics program. The money was part of the 1968-69 budget for the department of health and physical education.

The program could do more with two grand 30 years ago than it could today, but it wasn't like it had anything to waste, Mawson said.
"Basically, there was no money," said Washington, who has been the Kansas women's basketball coach since 1973.
The lack of funding meant no scholarships and little recruiting, and that wasn't even the worst part.
"There were a lot of people who didn't think we had a chance." Washington said
The women's teams shared athletes as well as game attire, practicing in old Robinson Gymnasium.
"If you think it's bad now, you should have seen it then," said one former coach
The teams had to share court space not only with one another but also with intra mural teams.
"We had to beg, borrow and steal to get anything done over at Robinson," said Jack Isgur, the first volleyball coach in

1975.
Nancy Boozer started women's' golf in 1971 and took the funding problem into her own hands.
"I made our blazers that we wore," she said and added that the money came from her own pocket. "We had to conserve. We had to take vans if we went anywhere, stay at Motel 6, and we had $6 a day for meals."
The women's coaches salaries were also tiny, if existent at all. Many of the coaches taught in the department of
physical education and assumed their coaching duties on a volunteer basis.
It was hard to find people who were willing to work under these conditions for free, but the attitude of the time was one reason Mawson could find people to take on multiple responsibilities.
"I was from the era when you just did it all and didn't expect extra pay," said Mawson, who coached basketball, volleyball, softball, tennis and field hockey at the University.
Washington served as women's athletics director from 1974 until the program's merger with the men's department in 1981, and she said finding coaches was one of the biggest challenges.
Mawson said initiative helped but did not solve the problem.
The task was made easier by an Olympic development committee. It was conducted by the National Institution for Girls and Women in Sport and offered women who had no coaching background an opportunity to learn the job in the 1960s.
Limited resources were not the only problem. Female athletes had to struggle with the stereotypes of the late 1960s and early 1970s.
"They thought women should have teas and socials and wear dresses and have manners and all of that." Isgur said. "I'm not against manners, but people didn't think there was a place for them in sports."
In the 1970s even Lynette Woodard—a four-time All-American at Kansas and considered one of the best female basketball players of all time
—couldn't get in a pickup game at her local playground.
"We wouldn't get to play unless they needed us," she said. "If they had enough people, they didn't need us. But if they were a player short, it was like 'oh, I guess we'll let her play.' This is real. This is how I grew up."
Mawson wasn't deterred by any of this. She believed she could get things done.
"Absolutely, I did," she said. "There weren't any days off the first couple years, but we kept at it."
But she believed for a different reason. Shortly after Mawson had started her work, Washington
Marian Washington also believed.
women's national team in Sao Paulo, Brazil.
"We played in front of 47,000 people," she said. "I saw how people responded to us when we were traveling abroad, and I knew that it could be like that here. I just believed in it."
She thinks the team finished fifth, but that is not what sticks in her mind.
Washington believed so much that she put her playing shoes away. That included footwear for basketball, handball and discus.
Building a women's athletics program moved to the top of her priority list, and she wasted little time. She became women's basketball coach in 1973. The same year she founded the women's track and field team.
A year later, she became the director of
the university's newly founded women's athletics department. The reason for creating a separate department for women was simple.
"The men's athletics department didn't see the women as part of it," Mawson said.
That has change. This year, the women's athletic budget is $3,968,723. The money includes 113 scholarships, which is four short of the NCAA maximum. The University is in the process of adding those scholarships to the rowing team.
"I think they've been proceeding faster than anyone would have guessed," Mawson said.
This weekend, several women's teams and former coaches will be inducted into the KU Hall of Fame. Among them are seven softball teams that competed in the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics

Field hockey now gaining popularity

At one time field hockey was only populated in the New York state ahead, but in the past few years it has gained prominence overcourt, especially in big events and on college campuses.

Each team has 11 members who play two 30-minute halves with no substitutions allowed in the game. The object of the game is to show a ball, with a backstop, the length of a football field and across the opponent's goal line. One point is scored if a team scores a number of goals scored in a single game in love, sometimes only one or two. There is no special competition with even

Soggy fields stop games, annoy players and officials
The rain that poured down on Lawrence the past few weeks didn't just cause erosion and make it difficult to walk the dog.
It also wiped out most of the soccer and flag football intramural seasons.
The rains occurred, when the games were scheduled and after the rains fell the fields were deemed unusable until they dried out.
Most of the flag football season had already been played, but each soccer team had played just one game — a far cry from the four games each team was promised.
Now the plan is to start the soccer tournament this weekend without finishing the regular seasons.
This has made some soccer intramural athletes unhappy. Unlike flag football, which got more games in, the soccer season never really took off.

Minneapolis, MN 56410
Each team shelled out $30 to participate
Spencer Duncan
It has harbored some resentment towards the intramurals department.
and, more importantly, the students looked forward to playing against their peers.
But that wasn't a possibility, said Jason Krone, assistant director of recreation services, who oversees the intramural program.
"Those fields could have been played on," said Andy Taylor, Overland Park senior. "It wasn't that muddy. One of the days they canceled a game was three days after the rains. We could have played."
Taylor is one of many intramural participants who feel cheated. Of the participants I talked to, many said they would have played on the muddy and wet fields located at Shank Complex at 23rd and Iowa streets.
Ryan Washtakta, intramural program assistant, also has an explanation for why the tournament must begin now and the regular seasons must be put aside.
"When we get that much rain, the fields are saturated, and if we play on those fields it tears them up," Krone explained. "The next time it rains, the fields are even worse."
"It is time for our floor hockey and volleyball seasons to begin, and it is too much to run all of these at once," he said.
Duncan is a Topeka senior in journalism and English.
These are legitimate reasons. But it also is understandable why the intramural players are upset. They wanted to play ball.
The intramurals program hasn't burned the teams, though. They have offered to refund money. Any team that chooses not to play in the tournament beginning this weekend will be reimbursed $20. Any team that wants to play in the single elimination tournament will be reimbursed $10. Also, in the past any team that did not show for a game or forfeited was charged $10 for missing the game. This year, that fee has been waived. If a team didn't show for its first game or forfeits in the tournament, they will not be charged.
It's not a bad deal. And at least the intermurals program didn't try to keep the money, which it could have done.
The intramurals department probably could have played some of the games. The fields at Shank already are in bad shape and a few more games on the wet fields probably wouldn't have done much more damage.

But at least they offered a solution instead of just cutting everything off altogether.
It might not have been the solution that made everyone happy, but there is still some opportunity to play.
Men's basketball feels the burn
Injuries pour salt on team's practice
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Late Night is finally here, and the men's basketball team is emotionally ready to begin practicing. Whether the players are physically ready is another question.
Injuries usually plague teams late in the season, but the Jayhawks this year face the task of getting healthy before the season even starts.
Kansas head coach Roy Williams said he was exited about the season but had questions about his team's health.
"The health issue still has to be answered," Williams said. "But I really believe that this team will be the type that will have five guys averaging double-figures. And I have always said that is a good situation to have, and it is hard for the other team to design their defense to stop you."
Finding a healthy post-player could be a challenge for Kansas. Forwards T.J. Pugh and Lester Earl are not expected to participate in tonight's scrimmage, leaving only Eric Chenowith and Jeff Carey in the middle.
Pugh, a 6-foot-8 senior from Omaha, Neb., reinjured his ankle Wednesday after undergoing surgery in early September to repair it. He was expected to be ready to play tonight, but he will not be able to participate in the scrimmage.
Earl, a 6-foot-8 guard from Baton Rouge, La., is in the same
boat. He had knee surgery last May and was expected to play tonight, but he will be held out of practice until Saturday.
"Hopefully, I'll get stronger as the season progresses," Earl said. "Once the season starts, I'll be ready to go."
Kansas guards also are suffering from injuries. Freshman Marlon London has a bad back that he injured in high school, and he has not been able to do any conditioning. He is not expected to practice for at least two weeks, Williams said.
Last year, Kenny Gregory also
was suffering from a bad back. Although coaches did not allow him to finish Wednesday's conditioning, Gregory said he was 95 percent healthy and excited for the season to get started.
Players are hopeful they can avoid late-season injuries by getting them out of the way before the start of the season, Pugh said.
"I've been here for three years, and I understand that sometimes these things just happen," Pugh said. "Hopefully, I'm paying my dues right now, and I'll be clear during the season."
In addition to the health issue, the Jayhawks face replacing All Americans Raef Lafrentz and Paul Pierce, not to mention Billy Thomas, the most prolific three-point shooter in Kansas basketball history.
After compiling a 69-6 record during the past two seasons, Williams is not sure what to expect this season.
"Paul's not here, Raef's not here and Billy's not here," Williams said. "People say that we're not going to be that good, but fellas, we have been 69-6 over the past two years. It's hard to

keep up that pace up."
Without big-name players, Kansas will focus on team scoring and will see a return to more of a motion offense than in recent seasons.
"We will change things because of the personnel," Williams said. "We'll still play what I like to think of as the Kansas way. We'll play to get

Kansas gears up for trip to 'Husker turf

Members of the Kansas football team hope they aren't putting their heads on the chopping block this weekend.
The Jayhawks travel to Lincoln, Neb., for a 6 p.m. kickoff tomorrow against Nebraska, a team that lost last weekend for the first time in two seasons.
And the Cornhuskers don't plan to make it two in a row.
The game will be televised on Fox Sports Network
Kansas running back Dustin Curry said,
"Going in after a loss, they're probably out
for some blood, but we're just going to go
up there with some confidence that we can
beat them.
That may seem nearly impossible for the 2-4 Jayhawks, who have allowed victory to be stolen from them four times this season.
Nebraska is a team that has either won or shared the national championship three out of the last four years.
Nebraska coach Frank Solich said, "As I look at Kansas, they are a fine football team, and they have been in every game right up to the fourth quarter. I think they are a team that can score points on you."

hopes of a bowl bid, this game is nearly a must-win.
Allen said Kansas needed to have a good game plan.
"That is often hard to do against Nebraska because they are such a well-coached football team," he said. "I don't know about the vulnerability of Nebraska, but I understand the recipe of how to beat them."
Curry said the recipe was consistency.
"I don't think you want to do anything different," he said. "I think you kind of want to perfect the things that you have been doing. It's the little things that are killing us, it's not our base offense or our base defense. It's just little things game in and game out that kind of put the opponents over the edge."
Kansas, though, has at least one starter out.
Cornerback Muhammad Abdul-Rahim
will not play because of an ankle injury, and linebacker Steve Bratten's status is questionable.
Wide receiver Harrison Hill said he was ready to play at Nebraska's Memorial Stadium.
"I went to a spring game there my junior year, and that's like a game, and that place was packed with 75,000 people," wide receiver Harrison Hill said. "It's going to be loud, a lot of people and an awesome environment."
But no matter how many Cornhuskers fans show up, the Jayhawks are ready to look past the season's disappointments.
"It's hard, but this is football," wide receiver Termaine Futon said. "This kind of stuff happens. You've just got to deal with it, and if you love it, just deal with it. Keep on working hard and make something good come out of it."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday. You're motivated to serve a good cause this year, though most of your work is behind the scenes. There is too much to do in October, but that's OK. The pressure keeps you going through the winter, even when you are nervous. A child's idea will work in February, and your work becomes like a child's play around March. Divend funds to others in May, and you'll benefit too. Keep even the hidden places tidy all year and a change in September will be in your favor.
to get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day,
O the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You might as well polish up your act, because you are drawing a lot of attention. Stand up straight. Look sharp. Today you need to show you really care about your appearance. Be ready for a white glove inspection, and you'll impress a person you admire a lot.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
The sun is in Libra, and the moon is in Virgo. Romance blossoms again, and that is really neat. Actually, it looks like your loved one is having a hard time achieving a goal. For you, it looks kind of easy. Don't make fun. Offer helpful advice instead.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Again, there is conflict between responsibility at home and playing in the world. Looks like you will get to do a little of both. Your job could be right now, and that's fine. You're doing a good job and in line for a promotion, but focus on your home and family, too.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
There's a synergistic force in effect today. You are gathering in valuables, changing them in some way and sending them out again. That creates more energy than it uses. You're making progress, so keep at it.

Take action to cinch a career opportunity. If there are not any where you are looking, maybe you are looking in the wrong places. If you can get your foot in the door, you can rise to the challenge.

Don't spend your money on trivia. Invest in something that will help you achieve your goals. This may be as simple as paying off bills. The interest on credit cards amounts to a lot, so there is no use saving at 3 percent if you are paying 18 or 20 percent. Use the savings to pay those bills.

Prepare for opposition today by getting all your facts straight. The other person is not going to care about emotional matters, such as how much your feelings were hurt.

"I was really proud of the way Luis didn't give up after that first set," tennis coach Mark Riley said. "The way he worked his way back into the match is a sign of a great player. Luis is just hot right now."
Kansas senior Luis Uribe defeated Johan Vanverud of Old Dominion 1-6, 7-6, 7-5 in a thrilling three-set victory at the ITA All-American tournament in Austin Wednesday. The victory qualified Uribe for the main draw of the tournament, which features many of the nation's top singles players including six players ranked in the top 10.
Uribe, a 1998 All-American, was scheduled to square off against Paul Martin of Texas, the nation's 39th ranked player, in the opening round of the main draw yesterday. The results were not available.
Although the two have never faced each other in singles, they have squared off in doubles. Their last meeting came in April when Uribe teamed with Enrique Abaroa to defeat Martin and Nick Crowell at a dual match in Austin.
The doubles main draw was also scheduled to begin yesterday. Uribe and sophomore Ed Dus, ranked 39 in doubles, were scheduled to face a team from SMU

The Head of the Charles Regatta is a great opportunity to race against some of the best rowers in the world," Kansas coach Rob Catloth said. "Our goal is to finish in the top half of both of our races. If we do that, we'll consider the regatta a success."
Cathotl said that he is excited with the progress made in practice. Final cuts were made last week and both the varsity and novice teams have been finalized.
"This is our fourth year with varsity status," Cattho said. "I am really starting to see our experience. Some of the older rowers have commented on the teams' competitiveness."
The Jayhawks will row again on Sunday, Oct. 25 at the Head of the Iowa Regatta.

Collins to march on with Ditka's Saints
Kansan staff reports
The Associated Press
Collins broke his week-long silence Wednesday about his demotion and subsequent release, saying he never told coach Dom Capres that he didn't want to play.
NEW ORLEANS — Kerry Collins, saying he never quit on the Carolina Panthers as was reported last week, is starting a new career with the New Orleans Saints.
"That hurt," Collins told The Associated Press in a interview from his agent's office in Newport Beach, Calif. "That wasn't what I was trying to get across. At no point did I say that."
The Saints, planning to start their third quarterback of the season Sunday, claimed Collins for a $100 waiver fee after 18 other teams passed.
On Tuesday, Carolina released Collins, who was demoted from starting quarterback to third string last week.
During a conference call Wednesday, Tampa Bay defensive tackle Warren Sapp called Collins a coward.
"All we're trying to do is find a way to get better," said coach Mike Ditka, whose team has lost two straight, including last week's 31-0 thrashing by San Francisco. "I hope he can give us some stability and some leadership."
"He disgraced the game," Sapp said. "He disgraced Johnny Unitas and all the great quarterbacks who ever played the game."
Tampa Bay plays the Saints in New Orleans Oct. 25. New Orleans meets Carolina Nov. 1 at Charlotte.
The Saints will pick up the remaining $746,048 of Collins' $1.153 million contract. He becomes a free agent at the end of the season.
"Everything happened so fast," he said. "It just got out of hand, really, and before I knew it, it was too late."
Collins said he was happy to get another chance to play but made it clear that he wasn't satisfied with the way he left the Panthers, who in 1995 made him the franchise's first-ever draft pick.
After the meeting, Capres said Collins had told him that he felt partly responsible for the team's poor start and that he thought his heart was no longer into leading the team. Many of Collins' teamsmates heard about that remark and questioned whether he could ever return to lead the offense.
Instead, Collins said he had what he thought was a civil discussion with Capers about the Panthers' whiten start and the quarterback's role in it.
Ditka said it would have been foolish not to claim Collins, despite his problems.
At that point, Collins said, he realized that his days with the Panthers were numbered.
"I told him, 'If this is all happening because of me, if it's my fault, I would understand if you wanted to go in another direction," Collins said. "I never intended to quit. I never intended to withdraw my services."
"Obviously, I didn't want it to get to that point," he said. "I'm not a quitter. I never wanted to quit on those guys."
"He's got to understand that this is another opportunity in life for him," he said. "You wipe off the slate and start again."

Women's soccer finale features Parents' Weekend, Senior Day
'Huskers, Cyclones final foes of season
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The members of the Kansas football team are not the only Jayhawks taking on a top 10 team from Nebraska this weekend.
The Kansas soccer team will take on the ninth-ranked Cornhuskers today at 3 p.m. at Super
Target Field
It will be the first time that the Jay-hawks have played at Super Target Field since defeating
Soccer
Central Missouri State 4-1 on September 13. Four other game locations were changed because rain caused Super Target Field to be deemed unplayable.
"We will finally play here tomorrow," Kansas coach Dan Magner said. "The women are very excited to play on their home field in front of friends and family."
Nebraska, 9-2-1 and 4-0 in the Big 12 Conference, will be tough to beat. They boast four players, goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc, defender Sharolta Nonen, defender Isabelle Morneau, and midfielder Shannon Tanaka, that play for the Canadian national soccer team. Canada will compete in FIFA Women's World Cup next summer.
Nebraska also boasts the second leading goal scorer in the nation, forward Kim Engesser. Engesser has tallied 16 goals this year, and has scored in all but one game.
"The key to our success will be collective defending," Magner said. "Each one of their attacking players have the ability to break down a defense one on one, so we will need to help each other out all the time defensively."
The Jayhawks will be without one of their top defenders, Kylie Watts because of a knee injury. Midfielder Ashley Gorham will take her place.
"I'm used to playing midfield, but I know a lot of their players." Gorham, Bellevue, Neb., sophomore, said. "It's easier to go up against players I know because I know their strengths and weaknesses."
The Jayhawks have never beaten Nebraska. Among the three losses the Cornhuskers have given Kansas was an 8-0 pounding in 1995 that marked the worse loss in Jayhawks history.
"We've contained high scoring teams, such as Missouri, Baylor, Texas Tech and James Madison." Magner said. "We know our attacking opportunities will be limited so we have to take advantage of each and every one. We can't play scared. We must play with confidence and discipline."
In addition to this weekend
"We know our attacking opportunities will be limited so we have to take advantage of each and every one. We can't play scared. We must play with confidence and discipline."
Dan Magner Kansas soccer coach
being Parents' Weekend for the soccer team, Sunday will be Senior Day. Forward Jen Silvers, midfielder Erin Hon and defenders Jackie Dowell and Sarah Korpi will be making their final home appearance against the Iowa State Cyclones (6-5-1, 1-3 in conference) at 1 p.m. on Sunday. The Cyclones knocked off Kansas 4-1 last season in Ames, Iowa.
Korpi and Dowell have anchored the defense this year, and Dowell believes that if the defense stays focused this weekend they could hold their own.
"I think that we do have a skilled, smart and tough defense," Dowell said. "At our best we can compete with anyone.
Sunday will be extremely emotional. I can't believe how fast it came and went. It would be nice to finish with a win."
Kansas to honor women's athletics
30-year tradition to be celebrated
Smith.
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The first 30 years of sanctioned women's athletics at the University of Kansas will be celebrated this weekend.
Among the festivities will be an alumniae brunch at 10 a.m. tomorrow at the Adams Alumni Center, where K-letters will be presented to former athletes who didn't receive letters while at the University.
Throughout the athletic season, former coaches and teams will be inducted into the KU Hall of Fame. They include seven softball teams, former coaches Sharon Drysdale and Bob Stanclift, swimming and diving coach Gary Kempf and 1949 National Collegiate Individual Golf Champion Marilynn
Softball coach Tracy Bunge said, "It's very special that KU administratively has taken the time to make it special for women's athletics."
Amy Perko, associate athletics director, said she expected about 200 people to participate in the weekend's events.
Marlene Mawson, who started the women's athletics program in 1968 with a budget of $2,000, said she wouldn't miss it.
Mawson left the University in 1990 to become the chairwoman of the physical education department at Illinois State University.
Several women's teams will be in action this weekend. The soccer team will play Nebraska at 3 p.m. today and Iowa State at 1 p.m. Sunday. The volleyball team will battle Iowa State at 7:30 tonight and Missouri at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow.
Late Night with Roy Williams is tonight after the volleyball

Kansas women's basketball coach
Six years after Mawson started women's athletics at Kansas, a women's athletics department officially was formed. Washington was served as women's athletic director from 1974 until the merger with the men's athletics department in 1981.
"It's going to be great," said women's basketball coach Marla Washington. "It's wonderful that we're going to recognize what's happened."
The women's athletics budget this year is almost $4 million, which includes 113 scholarships. Four more are planned for the rowing team.
Volleyball team to play two matches
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Three volleyball teams picked to finish at the bottom of the Big 12 Conference square off this weekend at Allen Field House.
The Jayhawks play Iowa State at 7:30 tonight and take the court against Missouri at the same time tomorrow.
Conference wins have been few for these teams this season.
Bechard: Says team needs both wins this weekend.
PETER SCHNEIDER
K an s as coach Ray Bechard said we ek nds like this could mean the difference between finishing in the middle or the bottom.
"If we're going to make any headway, we have to win some
matches," Bechard said. "If we play well, we feel like we have an opportunity to do that."
Iowa State has yet to win a match against a league opponent. The last time the Cyclones won a match was on Sept. 12 against Chicago State.
The Jayhawks' match tomorrow against Missouri may be more balanced.
The Tigers are 11-8 overall and
2-4 in the conference going into their match tonight against Oklahoma.
Kansas has lost five of six conference matches this season. The Jay hawks swept Oklahoma to open conference

play but have gone 0-5 against Big 12 teams since Sept. 23.
Middle blocker Anne Kreimer said the Jayhawks had decided to expect more from themselves.
"Our attitude has changed to a more 'go-after-it' attitude," Kreimer said. "We have to get rid of the tentativeness because we know of a few instances when we were hesitant, and it cost us."

'No respect' status unfair to women's basketball
The upscale Naismith Lounge has a bar, a fireplace, plush chairs and artwork depicting Kansas athletics history.
It's only a few steps away from Allen Field House on the second floor of the Wagon Student Athlete Center.
On wednesday afternoon, five TV cameras, a dozen reporters and two photographers recorded the words and movements of the Kansas women's
coach Marian

cameras and dozens of reporters filled the lounge, questioning Roy and the players.
Which team played in the NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen? Which team lost in the second round of the tournament to Rhode Island?
If you guessed that the media crush was for the women's basketball team, you'd be wrong.
Kansas women's athletics celebrates its 30th anniversary this weekend. Washington has been the women's basketball coach — and so much more — for 26 years.
But the team doesn't get the respect it deserves in spite of a growing national prominence and a better tournament finish than the men.
Why is that?
"The pros have spoiled us because everyone looks for that spectacular Michael Jordan dunk," Washington said. "But that's only a small part of the game."
sne's right. We've become accustomed to Showtime and Phi Slamma Jamma, backboard-shattering dunks
and players jumping out of the arena.
Unfortunately for the best basketball team on campus right now, very few people attend women's basketball games.
Washington says the women's game is different. The teams might not have monster dunks, but the offensive strategy, the team strategy and the women's effort is deserving of rabid fans.
Here's my proposition to basketball fans on campus: Attend some women's basketball games and watch the most successful yet best-kept Kansas athletics secret.
washington speaks of marketing women's basketball to children and families, trying to mirror the success of the WNA.
But I think we've got a product, a team of student athletes, that can appeal to everyone here on campus
I'm not asking you to cut back on your support for Roy or to stopping yelling "Puunughhhh" during men's games — unless you've got tickets, camp out for games, jump up and down in the bleachers and scream your head off.
But turn off the ESPN game featuring the last place teams in the Atlantic Coast Conference and go watch the women play.
Relieve your frustration with Jaron Rush by boycotting televised UCLA games and go to the field house to watch the women.
John Wooden, former UCLA coach,
said that women's basketball is basketball the way it's supposed to be played.
I've seen Tamecka Dixon, who now plays for the Los Angeles Sparks, cut to the basket, make a layup, and then sprint down the court only to stop suddenly and hit a three-pointer.
The game is exciting, the team is good and they deserve your support.

Player sues school, newspaper charging defamation, invasion
LOS ANGELES — Orlando Magic guard Miles Simon sued the University of Arizona, The Kansas City Star and several others, claiming defamation and invasion of privacy for the 1997 article, "MVP Made Grade Only On The Court."
The Associated Press
Simon, who played for Arizona, claims the Oct. 10, 1997, article contained extensive information from his academic transcripts that never should have been made public, said Milton Grimes, the player's attorney.
The lawsuit states an unnamed Arizona university employee gave The Kansas City Star Simon's academic records without his consent or knowledge.
Simon's lawyer filed the $1 million lawsuit in federal court in Los Angeles. Simon lives in Laguna Niguel in nearby
Orange County.
After the article was published, Simon "was held up to public ridicule and his privacy was invaded, and he was humiliated and made to suffer embarrassment," the lawsuit said.
Simon, who was named Most Valuable Player in the Arizona Wildcats national championship game last year, had been on academic probation almost his entire playing career, the Star reported.
But Simon was able to remain eligible because of a series of exceptions Arizona made in its own academic policies, possibly in violation of NCAA policy, the Star said, citing documents obtained during an 18-month investigation.
The article also said that after sitting out 11 games — the only playing time he missed for academic reasons — Simon was able to rejoin the Wildcats for their championship run by getting an A in a
class in which every student got an A. It also said Simon received credit as a junior for a class that the course catalog restricted to freshmen.
Defendants included the Arizona board of regents and university president Peter Likins and vice president Michael Gottfredson. There was no answer to repeated calls Wednesday night to the Sierra Vista, Ariz., home of Judy Gignac, regents president. A message left after business hours at the regents' office was not immediately returned.
star editor Mark Zieman said Wednesday that he had not seen the lawsuit and had no comment.
Simon also is suing the *Star*'s publisher and the reporter who wrote the article. He also sued the *Star*'s parent company, Knight Ridder Corp.
A message left after hours at Knight Ridder was not returned.
NBA studies union offer in labor dispute
Luxury tax level remains hurdle to be ironed out
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—As presently constituted, the NBA players union's luxury tax proposal won't give the owners much extra revenue.
million. The tax money would be redistributed to low-revenue teams.
In fact, union president Patrick Ewing is the only player under contract for the 1998-99 season with a salary big enough to trigger the tax.
The league's negotiating team spent Wednesday studying the union's proposal to see if it would actually slow the growth of player salaries.
Ewing would make $18.5 million, meaning that $500,000 of his salary would qualify for the 50 percent
"We're plugging in the numbers and considering a counterproposal," said Jeffrey Mishkin, NBA chief legal counsel.
Under the union's offer, a 50 percent tax would be levied on the amount of any annual salary more than $18
tax. Last season, only Ewing ($20.5 million) and Michael Jordan ($33 million) had salaries that would have triggered the tax. A middle ground would have to be negotiated to make a tax acceptable to the owners.
"The numbers are negotiable,"union attorney Jeffrev Kessler said.
"We are going to examine every element of this tax to see whether under some circumstance, at the right levels and in the right amounts, a tax could work," NBA commissioner David Stern said.
— a new economic operating system for the next collective bargaining agreement.
If the owners latch onto the concept and adopt the tax system in a counterproposal today, it could signal that the sides have found an acceptable mechanism for solving the biggest rift between them
The lockout is now 31/2 months old, and the league took the unprecedented step Tuesday of canceling the first two weeks of the regular season.
Both sides are awaiting a ruling from arbitrator John Feerick on the union's grievance about whether more than 200 players with guaranteed contracts should be paid during the lockout.
One thing a luxury tax might not do is reduce the amount of basketball-related income being devoted to player salaries.
Feerick's decision, which could have a major impact on the negotiations, is expected by Sunday.
In the last labor agreement
"We're plugging in the numbers and considering a counterproposal."
Jeffrey Mishkin NBA chief legal counsel
reached in 1995, the owners agreed to pay the players between 48 percent and 51.8 percent of revenues. If the percentage went higher — and owners claim it reached 57 percent last season — they had the right to toss out the old deal.
Owners have proposed a hard salary cap that would reduce that number to 48 percent over four years, while the union has proposed two cap-tightening measures if the number rose to 63 percent.
Stern indicated that the owners might accept a luxury tax proposal if it included a provision that included a hard cap. That way, if the tax system wasn't keeping salary costs down, another system would kick in to ensure cost certainty.

Ironic match-ups permeate World Series
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — They played a rain-shortened tie in spring training in their only meeting of the year. Even so, the San Diego Padres and New York Yankees will present plenty of interesting match-ups in the World Series.
There's San Diego native David Wells, pitching Game 1 for New York on Saturday night at Yankee Stadium. Night's Jim Leyritz, the
former Yankees postseason hero, now playing the same role for the Padres.
There's Hideki Irabu, who refused to pitch for the Padres and held out until he was traded to New York. And don't forget about San Diego slugger Greg Vaughn, who was nearly sent to the Yankees last year until New York nixed the deal.
Not to mention the other former New Yorkers playing for the
Padres — National League championship series MVP Sterling Hitchcock, Brian Behoering and Ruben Rivera, whose cousin is Yankees closer Mariano Rivera. And even Homer Bush, sent from San Diego to the Yankees in the Irabu trade. All that, and a lot more.
"You play in New York, that's center stage for everything," said Leyritz, who drove in the go-ahead run in San Diego's clinching Game 6 win against Atlanta in the NL
All that, and a lot more.
championship series.
Wells, the MVP of the six-game American League championship series win against Cleveland, can hardly wait to face his hometown team.
"That is where I am from," Wells said early Wednesday, before San Diego beat Atlanta 5-0 in the clincher. "That is where I grew up. It would be exciting for me, a challenge for me as well. I am pulling for the Padres."

**Padres:** Wally Joyner. First World Series in 13-year career. Batted 412 with runners in scoring position, second-best in majors. Once hit by a knife — a glancing blow — thrown from upper deck at Yankee Stadium while with Angels. **Yankees:** Tino Martinez. Big hitter in regular season, big bust in postseason. Go figure — in three years with New York, he is only 20-for-96 (20) with five RBI in playoffs and World Series. Capable of breaking out, if he stops pressing and chasing bad pitches. **Edge:** Yankees.
Second Base
Shortstop
Padres: Quilvio Veras. Switch-hitter. Leadoff man led team with 24 stolen bases. Drew 84 walks, most among any player in this World Series, plus six more in playoffs. Hitting only. 205 in postseason. Yankees: Chuck Knucklauch. Hitting. 16 in playoffs, made huge gaffe in ALCS by not picking up ball on bunt play. Leadoff man hit career-high 17 homers and stole 31 bases in first year for Yanks odd off-season by his All-Star standards. Prone to bad throws, even on easy plays. Edge: Yankees.
Padres: Chris Gomez. Hit career-high 267, including team-high .317 in September. Batted only .150 in NLCS against Atlanta. Not flashy in field, but makes the routine play. Yankees: Derek Jeter. Key player, an AL MVP candidate. Set career highs in average (.324), home runs (19), RBI (84) and steals (30). Outstanding fielder, great range on grounders and flares. Very relaxed, often talks to fans while on deck. Hitting only .176 this postseason. Edge: Yankees.
Third Base
**Padres:** Ken Caminiti, Former NL MVP. Homered twice against Braves in NLCS. Switch-hitter — batted 265 vs. righties, 230 vs. lefties. Missed 21 games because of strained left quadrips. Three-time All-Star, known for exceptionally strong arm. Charged-up player. **Yankees:** Scott Brosius. Most productive No. 9 hitter in majors. Acquired in winter from Oakland for his glove, was a huge surprise with his bat (.300, 19 HRs, 98 RBI). Leads New York with nine RBI in postseason. Edge: Padres.
Catcher
Padres: Carlos Hernandez. First year as everyday catcher. Improved play in postseason, batting .367 against Astros and Braves. Threw out 25 percent of opposing basestalers this year. Yankees: Jorge Posada and Joe Goriradi. Posada, the Yankees' catcher of the future, is a switch-hitter with pop. Also throw out 38 percent of basestalers. Girardi, who catches Andy Pettitte, can hit-and-run and bunt. He threw out 20 percent of basestalers. Edge: Yankees.
Left Field
**Padres:** Greg Vaughn. Set team record with 50 home runs. Missed most of NLCS because of strained left quadriceps, came back with two hits in clinching Game 6. Almost traded to Yankees in July 1997 for Kenny Rogers and Mariano Duncan — New York nixed deal, unsure if his shoulder was healthy. **Yankees:** Chad Curtis, Tim Raines, Shane Spencer, Ricky Ledea. All four started in ALCS vs. Cleveland, but combined to go only 2-for-29. Spencer, who made splash during September and first round against Texas, cooled off. Yankees miss power and presence of Darryl Strawberry, out because of colon cancer. **Edge:** Padres.
Center Field
Padres: Steve Finley. Slumped to 249 in regular season, including only
.188 against left-handers. Atoned in NLCS by batting .333 with six walks. Hit his only AL grand slam at Yankee Stadium in 1989. Speedy, fine fielder. *Yankees*: Bernie Williams. Beat out Mo Vaughn on final day for AL batting title (.339). MVP of 1996 ALCS. Missed 31 games in middle of season because of sprained right knee. Was 0-for-11 vs. Texas, bounced back to hit .381 vs. Indians. Smooth stride, runs down everything in gaps. *Edge*: Yankees.
Right Field
Padres: Tony Gwynn. At 38, making first visit to Yankee Stadium. Eight-time NL batting champion, career .339 hitter. Last remaining member of Padres' 1984 World Series team. Took extra batting practice in NLCS, trying to boost overall 9-for-41 (.220) performance in playoffs. Yankees: Paul O'Neill. A big-game player. Hitting .306 with four doubles and two homers this postseason. At 35, hustles to take the extra base. Good arm, plays corner well at Yankee Stadium. Extremely emotional, often slams helmet after making outs. Edge: Yankees.
Designated Hitter
raudres: Jim Leyritz. Homered three times vs. Houston in first round and once against the Braves. Hit .375 for Yankees in the 1966 World Series, with three-run homer in Game 4 at Atlanta swinging momentum. Still a fan favorite in Bronx. Yankees: Chili Davis. Signed in winter to provide power, missed 118 games because of injured right ankle. Switch-hitter, drove in five runs at ALCS. Edge: Padres.
Padres: RH Kevin Brown, LH Sterling Hitchcock, RH Andy Ashby, RH Joey Hamilton. Brown features nasty stuff. It is 12-3 lifetime against Yankees, his top win total vs. an opponent. Hitchcock, traded by Yankees to Seattle in December 1995 deal for Timo Martinez, is 3-0 with a 1.3 ERA this
Starting Pitching
postseason; beat Atlanta twice and was MCS MVP. Ashby relies on ground balls, threw a 75-pitch complete game in July. Hamilton, a starter all year, has pitched more in relief during playoffs. Yankees: LH David Wells, LH Andy Pettitte, RH David Cone, RH Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez. The main reason New York led AL in pitching. Wells pitched perfect game in May and is 7-1 lifetime in postseason. Is 3-0 in playoffs this year and was ALS MVP. Pettitte is AL's top winner in past three years, though he struggled this season. Cone thrives in pressure games, particularly at home. Is a decent hitter, too. Hernandez helped save Yankees' season, beating Cleveland in Game 4 to even series. With odd motion and pitches, he's hard for new hitters to handle. Edge: Yankees.
Relief Pitching
**Padres:** RH Trevor Hoffman, LH Randy Myers, RH Dan Miceli, RH Brian Boehringer, RH Donne Wall, LH Mark Langton. Hoffman throws most wicked change up in baseball, will be especially tough on hitters seeing for first time. Successful on 53 of 54 save chances during regular season, blew one against Braves. Myers has been shaky since Padres got him from Toronto Aug. 6. Miceli, Wall and Boehringer, formerly of Yankees, do fine setup work. Langston appearing in first World Series in 15-year career.
**Yankees:** RH Mariano Rivera, RH Ramiro Mendoza, LH Mike Stanton, RH Jeff Nelson, LH Graeme Lloyd, RH Hideki Irabu. Rivera throws heat — he pitched nine scorelearnings in the playoffs, allowing only one hit. His cousin, Ruben Rivera, is a Padres reserve. Mendoza and lefty specialists Lloyd and Stanton combined for nine shutout innings vs. Texas and Cleveland, Irabu, dropped from rotation, will surely be booed at San Diego — the Padres traded him to New York last year after he refused to pitch for them. Edge: Padres.
Prediction: YANKEES in 6.

THE PRESENTATION OF "MAMBA" IN KENYA
Academy Award nominee Oprah Winfrey (center) stars as Sothe, a former slave who is literally haunted by her past), in Touchstone Pictures' drama Beloved. Set in rural Ohio following the Civil War, the film also stars Kimberly Elise (left) as Sethe's daughter Duane and Thandie Newton (right), the mysterious young woman who calls herself Beloved.

Spirits of the past provide mystical quality in Beloved
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
The past comes to life in Beloved, and the memories are anything but sunny.
As a child born into slavery, Sethe (Oprah Winfrey) watched helplessly as white plantation owners lynched her mother. While pregnant with her daughter, Sethe was raped by two white men who were after the milk in her breasts. After escaping from the Kentucky plantation (ironically called Sweet Home) to Cincinnati, Sethe murdered her two-year-old daughter so that she would never face the horrors of a slave's life.
In adapting Toni Morrison's novel, director Jonathan Demme has captured many of the book's trademarks. Morrison's lyrical, mournful language, the chronological lapses in the story's timeline and the violently sexual imagery have survived the translation to film. Morrison fans will be delighted.
*Beloved* also examines how ex-slaves attempted to find their identity in the years following the Civil War. In Morrison's view, emancipation itself did not guarantee freedom. The former slaves were forced to abandon old schools of thought and sever ties to their heritage.
The movie begins eight years after Sethe killed her daughter, and now she must contend with the child's ghost. In the film, unseen forces attack the family dog and shoo off Sethe's two sons. Life in the rickety house outside, shared with her remaining daughter, Denver (Kimberly Elise), is spent on tips.
Change arrives in the form of two visitors. The first is Paul D (Danny Clower), a big-hearted ex-s slave from Sweet Home who shows up on the doorstep looking for womanly companionship. She finds her emotions reignited by Paul D's affection, but Denver, who never knew her own father, resents his presence.
The second visitor is Beloved (Thandie Newton), a wide-eyed young woman who appears one afternoon strewn out on Sethe's front lawn. Though she's wearing an expensive mourning gown, Beloved seems to possess the mind of a child, and she climbs to Sethe like a toddler.
Gradually. Beloved begins to domi

nate the household, insistent on monopolizing Sethe's attention and driving Paul Daway.
At the same time, Sethe's mood worsens, and she grows infatuated with Beloved, shunning both Denver and her lover.
Demme's direction, a combination of documentary-style realism and dreamy operatics, makes a perfect match for the poetry of Morrison's story. As usual, his direction of actors is flawless; expect Oscar nominations in February for Winfrey, Newton and Elise.
But the movie falters in its final act as Demme struggles to find a suitable exit. As a result, Beloved ends on an unconvincingly upbeat note — totally out of place for this kind of film and the important message it delivers.
The Mighty tackles too much
Review
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Sharon Stone playing a dooby housewife makes about as much sense as Meryl Streep playing a leg-crossing eschpath.
Surprisingly, Stone is one of the more acceptable components in *The Mighty*, another touchy-feely drama about a child with the Morquio syndrome — a condition that causes dwarfism in children. While this outing is nowhere near as sugary as last month's *Simon Birch*, it tackles more issues than it can reasonably solve in a two-hour block.
Disease? Got 'em. Domestic abuse? You bet. Single parenthood? Yup. Alcoholism? Uh-huh. Gun control? Right on.
Underneath the CNN-ready material, The Mighty does present a fairly sweet friendship between two misunderstood kids. But director Peter Chelson is so concerned with his horde of plot strands that he doesn't allow that
friendship to breathe.
The movie is worth noting for the fine performances by Elden Henson and Kieran Culkin (Macauley's brother) as the two friends. Hensen is Max, a Goliath-sized kid who, nevertheless, allows a gang of bullies to terrorize him. With his father (James Gandolfini) in prison for the murder of his mother, he lives a lonely life with his grandparents (Harry Dean Stanton and Gena Rowlands). How lonely? Every day after school, he heads to his room in the basement and hides under the bed.
The house next door soon is occupied by Gwen Dillon (Stone) and her son Kevin (Culkin). Kevin is a smart-mouthed kid in leg braces, and his mom constantly nags at him to chew his food slowly and to avoid rowdy sports.
Kevin is assigned to act as Max's English tutor, and the two kids develop a hankering for all things related to the King Arthur legend. They begin to roam the streets of Cincinnati, with Kevin perched on the larger kid's shoul-

aers, handing out pocket change to street beggars. Max eventually works up the nerve to throttle the bullies who have been tormenting him.
Although arguably miscast, Stone sinks into Gwen's blue jeans and flannel shirts pretty well. But despite her efforts to de-glamorize herself, we never foretet that we're watching a movie star.
Then Chelsom decides to reintroduce Max's father into the story, and The Mighty suddenly turns into a Pulp Fiction for kids. The movie just can't sustain the abrupt shift in tone, which is altered again at least twice before the final credits. Sometimes, simplicity is the best route.
Theatre promotes 75th anniversarv
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Lauren Stanford, Stillwell senior, spent six hours this week carrying a sign on Jayhawk Boulevard, advertising the new University Theatre production.
Stanford was promoting "The Batting Cage," which officially opens the University Theatre's 75th season at 8 tonight at Crafton-Prever Theatre.
"We are having a pretty good response," Stanford said. "A lot of people have showed some interest."
Katherine Pryor, associate director of the University Theatre, said the initiative did not mean that tickets sales were declining. Rather, she said, the point was to promote the 75th season of the University Theatre.
THE BATTING CAGE
As part of a traineeship program, students are actively promoting the upcoming plays.
- What: "The Batting Cage"
- Where: Crafton-Preyer
Theatre, Murray Hall
■ When; Tonight, Saturday, Sunday and Thursday, Friday and Saturday next week.
What time: 8 p.m. all days, except Sunday, which is at 2:30 p.m.

Pryor said that in a focus group last year they found out that there were some students on campus who did not even realize that there were shows being performed on campus.
we are trying to find ways to encourage more students to come to the theater, just as they do with the football team and the basketball teams," Pryor said.
"There are a lot of things that those people have to do in town, so the University Theatre may not be one of their top choices." Wright said.
Jack Wright, director of "The Batting Cage" and professor of theater and film, also said he thought more students should come to the theater to appreciate the performance of their peers.
Wright praised the work of the students in the plays and said the work was very professional.

"The quality of work is so good, and we just want to expose it more to other students," he said.
He said that the first saw "The Batting Cage" performed in the 1996 Humana Festival at the Actors Theatre of Louisville, Ky. The play, written by Joan Ackermann, talks about family relationships, how people deal and communicate with each other and the loss of a loved one.
In the play, two sisters arrive in South Florida to scatter the ashes of a third sister, Morgan, who died two years earlier. Upon arrival, the two discover that their sister's ashes have been lost by the airline and that their mother cannot join them in Florida.
"The difference in this play is related to the fact that there is a missing person in the family and how this person has affected everybody else," Wright said. "Morgan wanted her family to stay together, so she arranged this trick for them to realize they have to go on like everybody else."
Tickets for the play can be purchased in the KU box offices and cost $6 for students, $11 for senior citizens and $12 for the public.

Oregon, UCLA: Offensive worlds collide
Practice continues despite injuries
The Associated Press
Oregon certainly won't be sneaking up on No. 2 UCLA.
good shots, be unselfish and play really, really hard."
"I spent six years as offensive coordinator there and they're still using a lot of the same things," UCLA coach Bob Toledo says. "When I watch them now, it's like looking in the mirror."
Which means there should be plenty of points in Pasadena when the 11th-ranked Ducks waddle into the Rose Bowl to play the Bruins. It's conceivable the teams could combine for 100 points and 1,000 vards.
Oregon (5-0, 2-0 Pac-10) and UCLA (4-0, 2-0) rank 2-3 nationally in scoring, with the Ducks at 50.6 points per game, and the Bruins at 48 points. The Ducks, led by the passing of Akili Smith and running of Reuben Droughts, average 554.3 yards per game. The Bruins, with quarterback Cade McNown at the controls, are at 485.3 yards.
Minnesota (plus 371/2) at No. 1 Ohio State
"UCLA has all the ingredients to be a great team," Oregon coach Mike Bellotti said. "And we have staked a claim to that, too. We'll find out more about that this weekend."
The Jayhawks are looking forward to a season in which they are not expected always to be the top team.
For the Bruins, tailback Jermaine Lewis returns after a one-game suspension for his involvement in an off-campus fight. But he won't start, as Keith Brown and freshman DeShaun Foster were more than capable replacements. They ran for two touchdowns apiece and combined for 209 yards on 29 carries in UCLA's 52-28 win at Arizona.
This is a role Robertson finds himself comfortable in after starting for the Jayhawks at point guard in all but one of their games last season.
Oregon's Smith, meanwhile, has joined the list of Heisman Trophy contenders with his play. The 6-3, 215-pound senior leads the nation in passing efficiency with a 196.3 rating. Smith has thrown for 1,418 yards and 15 TDs as the Ducks shoot for their first 6-0 starts since 1964.
Buckeyes have shutouts against two unranked teams they've played. . . OHIO STATE, 49-7.
Continued from page 1B
During the preseason pickup games, team members have developed a closeness that will benefit them during the season, Williams said.
The picks:
Robertson was the only Jayhawk ranked in Athlon magazine's top 100, and neither the front nor the back court were ranked among the notion's best. But as a team, Kansas was ranked ninth, *Street & Smith* magazine had Kansas ranked 13th, and *Basketball News* had the Jayhawks ranked 16th.
"It's exciting, it's very different and it's exciting," Robertson said. "This year, more than any other year when we win a game, we're going to be very, very happy. In the past, people expected us to win, and now there will be questions, some people wondering how good is Kansas going to be?"
No.11 Oregon (plus 10 1/2) at No.9UCLA
No.2 UCLA
"I think a lot of guys will be looking up to me to step up and take that leadership role," he said. "I think that's just natural. I'm a senior, I've been here three years and I have a lot of experience."
Although the Jayhawks see several obstacles ahead, they still garner respect. Most magazines still have Kansas ranked in the preseason top 25, though not in the top five as in recent years.
"I think this group has a lot of pride, and I have even heard them say this, that we have to do this together," Williams said. "I do think that we will have tremendous chemistry on this team, and I do think they will take it as a challenge to be a good basketball team."

Hazing not limited to greeks
Soccer team, scholarship halls engage in possible infractions
Kansan staff writers
By Augustus Anthony Piazza and Brad Hallier
The women's soccer team proved last week that greek organizations aren't the only groups that must follow University of Kansas hazing regulations.
Tuesday, the same day PhI Kappa Theta fraternity was placed on interim suspension for unreleased hazing allegations, freshmen soccer players were told by the upperclass-
men to dress in funny costumes and walk around campus singing songs as part of initiation activities.
Dani DeGuerre, freshman midfielder, said she had to wear an ugly dress, a swim cap and a one-piece bathing suit over the dress.
"It's something we do as freshmen," she said. "It's all fun and games."
Katie Garrity, sophomore goalkeeper, said it was a collective effort by the team to come up with ideas for the freshmen.
"They have to go to Watkins every day to get five condoms, because that is the most you can get," she said. "We blindfolded them in the dorms and stole their pillows."
Ann Eversole, associate dean of students, said that when she heard about the soccer incident from a student, she contacted Richard Konzem, associate director of intercollegiate athletics, who was unaware of the incident.
Amy Perko, assistant athletic director, said that she handled the situation administratively. She said she went to the captains and coaches and handled it within the team.
"The team didn't think they were hazing," she said. "It was an innocent mistake on their part, but now
they know."
The University code states that any activity or activity that negligently or recklessly endangers someone mentally or physically would be considered hazing. It also states that if an activity negligently exposes a person to extreme embarrassment or ridicule, then it could be considered hazing.
David Ambler, vice chancellor for student affairs, said that Perko's informal action was the correct discipline but that he would look further into the situation.
He said that if the person who made the complaint to the dean of students office wasn't happy with the way the See ANTI-HAZING on page 2A
Vigil commemorates victims of hate crimes
Kansan staff writer
By Steph Brewer
A Friday-night rainstorm didn't extinguish nearly 200 candles lit by University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents at a vigil held in the memories of two hate-crime victims.
The crowd gathered in front of City Hall, 6 E. Sixth St., from 7 to 8 p.m., while residents and representatives of various campus and city organizations spoke against hate crimes. After the speeches, the group walked down Massachusetts Street. The vigil was sponsored by the Freedom Coalition, a Lawrence civil-rights group.
James Byrd, an African American, was dragged to his death in Texas this summer. Matthew Shepard, a homosexual University of Wyoming student, died last week after being beaten.
At the vigil, Lawrence resident Diane Silver was met with cheers when she said that gays would not go back in the closet.
"I know in my heart that they will never defeat us," she said. "We have a right to walk in Wyoming and Texas and Lawrence and in Topeka in front of Fred Phelps' church."
Phelps is an anti-homosexual Topeka minister who nicknamed Shepard's funeral.
David Brown, a representative of the American Civil Liberties Union, said at the vigil that he regretted the fact that the event had to be held.
"I regret that there's been death. I regret that we live in a society that encourages and gives permission to hate," Brown said.
"People aren't going to think they have to change their ideas and become more open unless it's accepted by political figures," she said.
From 12:30 to 2:30 p.m. Friday in front of Wescoe Hall, the deaths were commemorated by the KU Student Development Center. A table was set with a petition in support of the Hate Crimes Prevention Act, legislation that would expand federal injudication to reach serious hate crimes.
Lisa McMurtry, Wichita freshman, said that for society to become more tolerant, politicians needed to be more open about differences.
He said that Kansas was one of eight states without specific laws against hate crimes.
At 13:00 p.m. the Campanile chimed 21 times, once for each year of Shepard's life.
The table also had information about hate crimes and books for people to write messages to the families of Shepard and Byrd.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said that by 1:15 p.m. about 80 people had signed the petition.
Erin Easley, Kansas City, Kan., junior, said that her heart was with the families.
"I pray for their families, but, most of all, I pray for the people who did this," she said. "I pray that their ignorance will be healed and that they'll open their eyes."

Student Senate's quest to get Hollywood Theaters to offer a student discount has made the first step toward progress — the two groups are talking.
Alan Stearns, graduate senator, has talked to Tracy M. Bundy, director of marketing and communications for Hollywood, about the possibilities of the theater company offering discounts to students in Lawrence.
Kansan staff writer
By Seth Jones
Student Senate asks theater to consider student discounts
"She has been nothing but nice to me," Stearns said. "She wants to talk about what options are available for us. She is supposed to call me back when she knows more about what can be done."
The idea to ask Hollywood for a discount on tickets originated in Senate two months ago. A letter was sent to Hollywood headquarters, based in Dallas, signed by Stearns, Mark Horowitz, graduate senator, and Maria Abatjoglou, liberal arts and sciences senator, on Sept. 15.
Bundy received the letter but said she was not prepared to comment on it.
"We don't have enough information to comment on if we could offer a student discount
Bundy suggested that the University take advantage of the company's "Super Saver" program.
in Lawrence," she said. "We could easily approve the Super-Saver program, though, where companies bby tickets in advance for $4 each and sell them through their own office. The University is eligible for the program."
Stearns said he didn't think the University should have to serve as the middle man.
"I think this contradicts itself," Stearns said. "They won't offer a student discount at the theater, but they're happy to offer us discounted tickets in an unlimited amount through their program. The only thing I can think of is that they want money up front."
Bundy said the reason they could offer the program now was because it had already been approved.
"Right now it's a program we're actually using," she said. "The studios we use know about it and approve of it."
Sue Buckley, program manager of Student Union Activities, said she would talk to the company about the program.
"It's an interesting concept, I'd definitely like to investigate it." Buckley said. "We already sell things like discounted tickets to Worlds of Fun and Blades games and other things."
Buckley said that SUA didn't consider Hollywood direct competition with its theater because it shows different movies.

School of Medicine receives $1.2 million gift
The University of Kansas School of Medicine at Wichita will be able to establish an endowed chair of surgery after receiving $1.2 million.
The money, given by two Wichita-area families and Via Christi Regional Medical Center in Wichita, will begin the Dr. George Farha Chair in Surgery. William Loewen and Joyce Loewen of Goddard and the Farha family contributed the money to the chair.
Kay Albright, director of University relations for the medical center, said that endowed chairs generally were financed to supplement a salary.
"But that is not the case this time," Albright said. "All income from the endowment will go to support the surgery program."
She said the money would be invested through the Kansas University Endowment Center and the interest would finance guest lectures, research and other broad educational uses.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said the support was vital to the school's continuing efforts to improve health care in the Wichita area and Kansas.
Farha, the co-founder of the Wichita Surgical Group, also was the first chair man of surgery at the Wichita campus. He retired in January 1998.
During his career as a surgical educator, Farha established the surgical program in Wichita, trained 135 surgeons and taught all 1,040 students who attended the medical school since it opened in 1972.
"Like the priesthood, medicine is a calling," Farha said. "And we are called to serve our patients."

Hispanic readings part of heritage month
Students reading Hispanic literature outside the Kansas Union Friday strained their voices to be heard above the wind noise in their microphone, the chimes of the Campanile and the clatter of passing students.
Members of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization read from the works of Latino and Latina writers, poets and artists to an audience of about 20 students.
Alex Morales, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore and sergeant of arms of the organization, read from Jose Antonio Burciaga's "Drink Cultura" for about 10 minutes.
"Even though it's hard, it still is important, because it lets people see we're serious," he said of the area's acoustics. "We care about what we're reading."
Janeell Avila, Overland Park senior anio president of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization, said the reading was an important part of Hispanic
Heritage Month.
"A large part of heritage is the literature that comes out of it." she said.
"A large part of heritage is the literature that comes out of it," she said. She said that literature was not always first in the minds of people considering Hispanic culture.
"Most people don't know literature compared to music and dance," she said. "It's a different way of expressing your culture, heritage and history."
The event was the second marathon reading of Hispanic literature this month. The other event was organized by Lawrence graduate students Jesse Aleman and Nicolas Shump.

Marilyn Manson poster defaced at music store
A nude, but genderless poster of one of America's shock rockers, Marilyn Manson, received a facelift this weekend at a downtown Lawrence music store.
Someone drew devil horns and wrote that God would strike Manson down on judgment day on the poster, which was hung on the front window at Vibes Music, 911 Massachusetts St, between 10:30 p.m. Saturday and 11:30 a.m. Sunday.
The poster was hung on the inside of the window.
Tanya Walsh, Vibes manager, said that she filed a report with the Lawrence Police Department.
"In case this is going to be an ongoing thing, we wanted the police to have a record of it, because we are not going to take the poster down," Walsh said.
She said that the store had received several negative comments on the poster since she put it up six weeks ago.
"It is shocking in a town that is supposed to be as liberal as Lawrence that people think they can deface property to get their views across." Walsh said.
Another manager of Vibes, Shannon Pufahl, said that Manson was bucking the norms of mainstream America and that this led people to feel a hatred toward him.
"But you can't hurt me or deface my stuff because of it," she said.

Counterfeit bill found at Wescoe cafeteria
A KU faculty member was the latest person to discover a fake $10 bill in Lawrence when he tried to make a purchase with one Friday morning on campus.
Phil Wedge, English lecturer, was paying for a cup of coffee at Wescoe Terrace when the cashier noticed that the bill didn't look quite right.
When officers of the KU Public Safety Office arrived, they did not treat Wedge as a criminal for having a counterfeit bill
Because he had to pay for it with real money, the coffee cost $10.50.
"It was an expensive cup of coffee," he said.
Lawrence police do not know who is
responsible for making the bills, which began appearing Oct. 9.
That night, more than 10 downtown businesses reported receiving the counterfeit bills. Police said the bills looked somewhat blurred and were a little smaller than real bills. The bills also smear when they get wet.
So far, about 30 counterfeit bills have been reported to the Lawrence police, who have no suspects.

A 25-year-old Lawrence woman was found bound and gagged in a Lawrence cemetery Thursday night.
Woman found tied-up, gagged in cemetery
The incident began at 10:20 p.m. when police were called to Lawrence Memorial Park Cemetery, 1517 E. 15th St.
Lawrence police Sgt. Richard Nickell said, "she had her hands tied behind her back, she was gagged and she was running."
The man did not attempt to evade or resist officers and was subsequently arrested and booked into the Douglas County Jail. Lawrence police said.
The woman then told police that the man who had bound and gagged her against her will was still in the cemetery, where the police found him.
"Based on the situation, we had probable cause to believe that he was responsible for binding and gagging her and for holding her against her will in the cemetery," Nickell said.
He was arrested for kidnapping, and his first appearance in District Court was 3 p.m. Friday, said Jail Officer Jae **

Anti-hazing rules not just for greeks
Continued from page 1A
Athletics Department handled the situation, then the dean of students office would handle it the same way it does for other organizations.
Bill Nelson, coordinator for Greek programs, said that he didn't think that the incident involving the soccer team was handled correctly.
"If that would have been a greek organization, someone would have filed a complaint," he said.
Eversole and Nelson said that fraternities and sororities were held to a higher standard than other students.
"They're more in the public eye," Eversole said. Nelson said consistency was important to establish a uniform stance against hazing.
Greek organizations and sports teams aren't the only groups that may be violating the hazing code.
Grace Pearson Scholarship Hall, 1335 Louisiana St., and Stephenson Scholarship Hall, 1404 Alumni Place, take part in a tradition called fountaining.
"The challenge that exists for the entire campus community is to uniformly and unilaterally be able to have a definition of hazing based on the behavior rather than who is doing the behavior," he said.
Fountaining occurs when hall members throw someone into a fountain on campus — usually on that person's birthday.
"No one has ever made a complaint about it. It builds some type of camaraderie," said Larry Gibbs, president of Grace Pearson Hall.
Jason Thompson, president of Stephenson Hall agreed and said that the tradition did not hurt anyone.
"It's just a little tradition, because it's not harmful, it's and fun and unique," he said. "It's a nice way to show that we have something that everyone can participate in."
Thompson said that most students in the hall generally didn't object to the activity.
I remember a person that said that they never wanted to be fountained, so we didn't bother them," he said.
Ambler said that he thought there were only certain activities that clearly could be considered hazing. He said that these activities include beatings, forced excessive drinking, forced unnatural sexual acts, throwing food at new members and depriving people of sleep night after night.
"It's difficult to simplify," he said. "It's not like running a red light where you either run the red light or not."

Rain does not dampen kickball tournament
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Wet weather could not stop a group of KU students from raising money for charity Saturday.
In cool rain and ankle-deep mud, participants in the 12th annual kickball tournament, organized by Alpha Gamma Delta and Sigma Phi Epsilon, booted a rubber ball to raise money for the American Diabetes Association and the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence.
The tournament was held at the baseball diamonds at Holcom Park, 2700 W. 27th St. It was divided into men's and women's brackets and was open to all KU students. Nine sororities and 15 fraternities fielded teams.
Each team paid a $100 entry fee, and the tournament had about 30 sponsors who each paid $100, said Holly Oglesbee, Wichita junior and philanthropy chairwoman at Alpha Gamma Delta.
The organizers have not counted this year's proceeds, but about $4,000
was raised at last year's event. Oglesbee said that this year's tournament probably would bring in about the same amount.
Rain already had saturated the fields when teams kicked off the tournament at 10 a.m. For the rest of the day, conditions were sloppy.
Flowergarden played for Delta Gamma, winner of the women's bracket.
"There was like six inches of mud." said Emily Flowergarden, Cedar Rapids, Iowa, junior, her ankles covered with dried mud.
Phi Delta Theta won the men's bracket.
Flowergarden said she had participated in the tournament last year, in dry weather.
"I think it's more fun in the mud," she said.
Other tournament participants were enthusiastic about the tournament's philanthropic goals.
"We're helping a great cause," said Staci Donovan, Wichita junior and Flowergarden's teammate.
Students question use of Coca-Cola money
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
Officials say the University of Kansas' contract with the CocaCola company provides students with more benefits than a carbonated beverage to drink in class, but some students disagree.
"All I see are a lot of Coke machines on campus, and that's about it," said Elizabeth Blumenfeld. Long Grove, III., junior.
Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration, said that when the 10-year contract began last year, Coke provided $7 million up front and the money was allotted to various areas of the University for the 1998-1999 school year.
Klinkenberg said an official summary of how the $7 million was distributed was not available.
"There were allocations to the student programming fund," she said. "One of those things was
Day on the Hill. Last year was the first time the event was funded by Coke."
Seth Lindsey, Liberty, Mo., sophomore, said that if the Coke money was for the students, it should be handled by students.
"The visible signs from a student's standpoint are nothing," Lindsey said. "The money should be given to student government, and they would allocate it toward student activities, instead of administration. That puts it on more of a student level."
Klinkenberg said that last year's profits were $450,000 plus commission on snack sales, which totaled $30,000.
"We have also endowed $5.7 million, which we are not spending on principal means," she said.
"We are setting it aside so it will be available at the end of the contract."
Klinkenberg said the money earned at the end of the 10-year
contract would be spent on continuing scholarships, student programming and reimbursement of the Kansas Union and the Athletics Department.
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, said that in the future, he expected the Coke contract to expand to other areas of the University.
"My own personal hope is to continue to provide for the students with more student programming," Ambler said. "The greatest buyers of Coke products on this campus are the students, and we want to return something in their investment."
The grand prize of the promotion, which ends after the fall semester, is a 1999 Jeep Wrangler.
Klinkenberg said the latest promotion by Coke to benefit students was the twist-off cap on campus promotion in which students could win instantly by purchasing a 20-ounce Coke.
Other prizes include Vanguard airline tickets, KU Bookstore bucks, SuperTarget gift certificates, KU football tickets and a free pizza.
Hillary Goldberg, Highland Park, Ill., junior, said the twist-off cap promotion only benefited a few students instead of a majority.
"It should be more than a twist-off cap saying you win a car." Goldberg said. "There are 25,000 students here — what about the rest of us?"
In the future, the amount of money earned from sales would have a snowball effect. Ambler said.
Klinkenberg said another promotion would be offered to students next semester.
"A certain level has to be achieved before funds are available," Ambler said. "The further we go into the contract the greater the sales will be, and the greater benefit for the University."

Perspective
Columnist clarifies work (like this is really possible)
Every corporation, once it gets big enough, will attract complaints. My column, regardless of how small it is, is no exception. The complaints slowly started rolling in after I had begun to establish myself as a columnist.
The early complaints were easy to shrug off, like when Students for a Purer English Language sent me a nasty letter about how they didn't like my constant use of made up words. I was vindicated a few months later when one of them accidentally left a participle dangling, and they were so broken up about it that they committed ritual suicide.
Nick
Bartkoski
opinion @ kansan.com
But other complaints stick with me, especially when people tell me that they just don't understand what I'm saying. I receive this complaint about 80 times a day. I kind of understand when people ask me to explain a private joke, but I understand considerably less when people don't understand the phrase, "Excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom."
Apparently, I'm also becoming more and more oblique in my column. I understand that the way I write is layered, but it still stung when no one understood that the phrase "Knight and Squire entered the bar" was meant to be a scathing satire of the whole Clinton-Lewinsky-Sud bombing thing.
So in an attempt to clarify my body of work, I've invited a guest from the English department to offer commentary. Lars Knoboskatich always has been a good friend to this column, and I was estatic when he said he'd be willing to explain my jokes. (The joke is that Lars Knoboskatich does not exist. Nick's just making this stuff up.)
This service will be good for both passive readers, who don't get it, and loyal readers, who get most of it, but still miss 5 percent of the jokes. (However, it's more likely that the only person who will even care will be Nick's grandmother, who is physically incapable of saying how bad this stuff really is.) Conversely, this also could just be a real lame attempt for me to pay off my five dollar gambling debts through flippant column writing. (The latter.)
Now that all of the housekeeping is taken care of
(What housekeeping? He's used up half of his space introducing this stuff, so it's obvious that anything to follow is just filler to let the explanations be the jokes.) I want to get to my main point. (He doesn't have one.) Personally, I've always had a problem with the whole drive to attract National Merit students. I mean truly, what prestige is there in bringing in these students (intelligent students = an intelligent looking University)? Despite that there's no discernible positive impact, the University of Kansas recruits these students aggressively in the most tested and effective manner. (They give these students money.)
These students are special because they did well on one test. One day's performance doesn't necessarily suggest anything. If Roy Williams recruited someone based on how well they played in one game, he would be considered insane. (Incorrect: Roy Williams could offer human sacrifice at half court, and no one would dare question him.)
I did really well on one test when I was in first grade, but eventually I stopped bragging about it. (He stopped bragging about it when he was a senior in high school, about a week after he found out he would never be a National Merit Scholar.)
My point is that it's unfair to award money to people that are already getting obscene amounts from every other possible avenue. The money the University gives to these students essentially helps them decide between a Mercedes and a BMW. Instead, why not give some of that money toward keeping the Kansan's most beloved columnist around for a fifth year? (This is a two-pronged joke, the first is that Nick is in no way shape or form the Kansan's most beloved columnist, the second is that the University would rather use scholarships to bring in people as they're released from Leavenworth prison than encourage Nick to stick around for one minute longer than he needs to.)
So that's all I really have to say about the University's drive to attract National Merit Scholars. I just hope that everyone now understands why I think it's important to use scholarship money to get them here (it's all irony — since the column is really about Nick being misunderstood, and now he says his point is the opposite of what it seemed to be...ah, never mind).

Broaden your mind: Today's quote
"Toleration is the best religion." — Victor Hugo
How to submit letters and guest columns
Letter: Should be double-spaced typed and fewer than 200 words. Letters must include the author's signature, name, address and telephone number plus class and home-town if a University student. Faculty or staff must identify their positions.
One of the most important aspects of the system is the hospital's independent financial operation that solves the discrepancy between the way in which the hospital was expected to operate and the way it was forced to. Previously, only patient revenues that were funneled back into the state budget paid the hospital's costs. The hospital did not receive interest on its own money and could not borrow on its own equity like other corporations.
The new operations also pledge to increase employee morale, double research grants and increase inpatient admissions and outpatient visits.
Guest columns: Should be double-
spaced typed with fewer than 700 words. The writer must be willing to be photographed for the column to run.
All letters and guest columns should be submitted to the Kansan newsroom, 111 Stuaffer-Flint Hall. The Kansan reserves the right to edit, cut to length or reject all submissions. For any questions, call Ann Premer (premer@kansan.com) or Tim Harrington (tharrington@kansan.com) at 864-4810. If you have general questions or comments, email the page staff (opinion@kansan.com) or call 864-4810.
The establishment of the Hospital Authority Board is a turning point for the 92-year-old hospital. It could be of tremendous benefit to medical students, faculty doctors, medical personnel and patients. Now that it is not oppressed by state red tape, the hospital should take advantage of its new governance to gain a long-inhibited edge in the health-care market.
KU Hospital Board creation will increase efficiencies
Editorials
The new system promises to create flexibility while retaining governmental immunity and funding. The hospital will no longer be tied down in bureaucratic management for policy changes. It will be able to more easily raise capital for equipment upgrades and service and facility expansion that will result in improved billing.
clinical programs
Long-awaited University of Kansas Hospital legislation finally was implemented two weeks ago. At last the hospital is entering the aggressive arena of other university hospitals around the nation, a move that hopefully will foster competitiveness and efficiency in the managed-care marketplace.
More than six months after Kansas Gov. Bill Graves signed Senate Bill 373 came the establishment of a 14-member governing board that will aid the hospital in running more like a business than a state entity hindered by bureaucracy. KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway leads the new Hospital Authority Board, which is replacing the old governance hierarchy that necessitated the consultation of the University, the Board of Regents and the Legislature for funding approval and operational decisions.
The board comprises the Med Center vice chancellor, the deans of the nursing and medical schools, the KU Hospital chief of staff, the hospital CEO, physicians, legislators and Regents. It is
The 14-member board operates more like a business.
Under the new board, the hospital will be in a better position to form partnerships with other health care providers and medical care organizations, net income and market share will increase, cash reserves will expand and funds will be generated for investment in
responsible for determining personnel policies and the development of purchasing procedures. it will continue to contract with the University for maintenance and other such needs.
Feedback
Nadia Mustafa for the editorial board
Reporter didn't get whole GTA story
I am writing in response to Julie Sachs' brief article about the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition, in the Tuesday, Oct. 13. Kansan. Because length limits may have been the report for the one-sided reporting, I am presenting some ideas that were left out of the article.
Count me a happy dues-paying GTAC member.
Amy Cummins Newport, N.C., graduate student
First, GTAC is a unique union in that it promotes the dual student/employee status of KU graduate instructors, who teach while they are candidates for master's and doctoral degrees. Involvement with GTAC certainly does not place GTAs at odds with their departments. Rather, some graduate students' own actions and attitudes may place them in opposition to their departments or to university administration.
Stereotype unfairly conveyed in quote
Finally, the GTA contract not only guarantees benefits for all GTAs but also ensures a quality education for the undergraduates that we instruct. Since over one quarter of KU's undergraduate classes are taught by graduate instructors, the entire academic community benefits from the contract.
Second, the English department is a union stronghold, with many GTAC supporters among its graduate instructors and faculty. The department is committed to excellent teaching and learning. The GTA quoted in Sachs' article seems atypical.
I am absolutely outraged by the quotation included in Angela Johnson's article covering the interracial relationship panel on Oct. 13. The quotation, which read, "At Mexican parties, people get in fights and there are bottles everywhere. My brother would always come home with blood on his shirt. I'd tell my girlfriend' 'Hey, this is fun'" was accurate only in the sense that a panellist did indeed say it.
Almost immediately after the panelist said this, I, as moderator, made it a point to tell the audience that the statement exaggerated the atmosphere at Latino parties and that they are usually
quite fun and free of violence. I did not want members of the audience to feel threatened at the prospect of attending a predominantly Latino party or dance for unwarranted fears of violence.
After experiencing such a positive evening, one designed to help break the divisions among races and ethnicities, it was indeed sad to see the Kansan allow this remark to be included in its coverage of the event.
The inclusion of this quotation clearly detracted from the essence of the article. The statement itself was not german to the 90 minute discussion. It did not warrant to be mentioned, particularly with all the positive comments panelists made. It's presence in the article only serves to perpetuate negative stereotypes about Latinos and to instill fear in anyone interested in attending predominantly Latino parties or dances.
Gays, lesbians are a minority group
Robert G. Rodriguez
Academic Services Coordinator, McNair Scholars Program
There was so much I wanted to say in response to the letters printed in the Kansan regarding the death of Matthew Shepard. I wanted to emphasize the importance of not universalizing this hate crime as a "crime against humanity," because doing so makes the group targeted — the gay community — invisible. I wanted to impress upon anyone reading this the idea that you cannot say that you consider homosexuality morally wrong and then protest the morality behind killing someone because of their sexual orientation.
If you hate the idea of homosexuality, you hate homosexuals by default. I wanted to communicate this — to plead my case that somebody cannot say they like me but disagree with my lifestyle; nobody can deny the validity of who I am and still call me "friend."
I remember being called "faggot" day after day in high school. I was asked if I was going to join the army soon since that was where the men are, demanding to know why I had no male friends. Funny, that. If people think I chose to be ostracized by practically every heterosexual man in my high school, people don't know me
As horrible as Matthew Shepard's murder is, it's business as usual when it comes to the Kansan's coverage of queer issues.
so very well. Strange how this one thing — being gay — keeps people from wanting to know anything else about me. I am not discriminated against every day, because I do not, like African-Americans, Hispanics, Asian Americans, and American Indians, wear the color of my minority status on my skin.
But like any other minority, sometimes I feel shut out. That the headline of an article written last week was printed under the subject heading "Controversy" makes me feel shut out. The fact that many people, mostly heterosexual men, refuse to know me or anything about my life makes me feel shut out. I refuse, however, to be scared, and I'm not afraid to admit that I'm angry. I would, however, much rather be embraced than tolerated.
Kansan shouldn't quote homophobics
Tom Jones Lawrence senior
The Kansan has always shown some inexplicable need to ferret our a bigoted opposing view for any story involving the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgendered community — even one as clear and noncontroversial as this. One might respond that this is done in the interest of fairness. If an opposing view is truly necessary for balance, that standard should be applied uniformly to any news item involving groups that some people hate. For example, for stories about the Black Student Union the Kansan could seek out KKK members for quotes on why they oppose Black people. For a story about Hillel, quote a neo-Nazi skinhead. Seeking out bigots for news items about any other group is unheard of, yet the Kansan always includes a homophobic view in stories on the queer community. The insistence on singling out one group for this sort of balanced coverage is absurd.
The gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community is understandably shocked, outraged and saddened by the unconscionable act. Why add insult to injury by forcing us to read a quote from a homophobe in coverage of this tragedy?

Greek leaders set to discuss alcohol-free houses tonight
An informational program to discuss alcohol-free fraternity houses and how they would work at the University of Kansas will be held from 7 to 9 tonight in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Four representatives from national fraternity and sorority headquarters will talk about the history, initiative at other universities and the effect of alcohol-free fraternity houses at the University.
The national headquarters' representatives are David Glassman, Sigma Nu fraternity; Bill Tallman, Delta Chi fraternity; Josh Sticka, Phi Gamma Delta fraternity; and Ginny Carroll, Alpha XI Delta sorority.
After the program, all representatives will answer questions.
"We're not trying to only get the sugar-coated polite questions," said Jennifer Kinney, assistant director of greek programs, risk management and education. "Students can also ask the difficult ones. The national officers will have the answers."
Kinney said that this was an informational program for students to find out more and get answers about their concerns.
The four speakers arrived at the University during the weekend and presented another program Saturday night to Greek Endeavor participants. Greek Endeavor is an annual event for new members interested in becoming leaders within their chapters.
The representatives also will be speaking with Greek program directors and administration during lunch today.

E-mail list investigates animal dissection ethics
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
Students concerned about animal dissection have a new national forum to discuss their opinions.
The Humane Society of the United States introduced an e-mail list for college students this year to share ideas about animal-rights issues.
At the University of Kansas, animal dissection has been a topic of debate since spring 1996, when Proponents of Animal Liberation began lobbying campus groups to establish a student choice policy.
The Student Senate Ethical Choice Task Force proposed the policy after hearing PAL's case for student choice in animal dissection.
Since then, the University Senate Executive Committee has ordered the Academic Procedures and Policies Committee to decide how to deal with the proposal.
But the KU Division of Biology maintains an official policy is unnecessary.
"If the class is a dissection class — if you're not doing what's required in the class — it's going to affect your grade," said Dean Stetler, director of the biology undergraduate program.
Michael Schmitt, Harrisonburg, Va., graduate student and PAL member, said the organization did not seek to ban dissection but to offer students who opposed it an alternative.
"The whole point of a student choice policy is that people have a right to make their own moral choices," he said.
Stetler pointed out that students always had a choice.
"We don't make a student do anything," he said. "In most cases, laboratory is not a requirement along with lecture."
"In our view there are two victims in dissection: the animals and the students," said Jonathan Balcombe, a Ph.D. with the Humane Society of the United States.
Balcombe said the animal supply industry could be cruel during the process of capturing the animals. That, paired with the act of killing
ALTERNATIVES
Alternatives to dissection that the Humane Society of the United States suggests are:
observation of animals
computer programs
physiological self-study
models, usually plastic
videos
books and manuals
WEB SITES
To subscribe to the Inter-Campus Animal Advocacy Network, send the message "subscribe ican" to waste@waste.ora.
Some Web sites with dissection information are:
■ www.hsus.org/dishome.html
■ peta online.org/tacts/exp/fuse03p.htm
■ www.ukars.edu/~pal/
and dissecting, makes animals victims, he said.
www.ukans.edu/~unigov/APP.html
Students are victims if they do not want to kill the animals but must to receive a grade, Balcombe said.
"As long as our society is willing to sacrifice animals to consume, to use a very, very tiny percentage of those for learning is not wrong." Stetler said.
Adam Naill, El Dorado junior, said he thought students should have a choice about dissecting. But he said students should take time to consider the necessity of dissecting for the learning experience.
"It's training the future doctors, nurses, occupational therapists and P.T.s of this country," Naili said.
PAL and the Humane Society argue that there are viable alternatives to dissection such as models and simulations.
Stetler said models alone were not appropriate for upper levels of biology.
"All of those things are exactly what the name implies: models and simulations, which means they're simplifications," Stetler said.

"Everything was great," Washington said. "For my team to have a chance to be received as well as they were, that was special."
As has become a tradition, Washington and Williams danced with their respective teams at center court.
"This year I thought I was going to be spared," Washington said. "I told some of my players, 'help me out a little bit, tell me what the latest dances are.'"
Washington had it easy, Williams said.
Washington had it easy. What about "Marian and those girls, they were nice."
They got Aretha Franklin's 'Respect,'" Williams said. "I don't even have a clue what (our) song was. I told Ryan that was the weirdest song I've ever tried to dance to. Usually when that song comes on, I'd get a Coca-Cola."
Many of the skits included members of the women's team.
"This is the most involved we've ever been," Washington said. "It was a lot of fun for them, and it meant a lot to them."
Nick Bradford said there was an effort to have the women in more skits this year.
"Definitely, they've got a great program," he said. "We feel they should get more support, and we're trying to help them out."

Abatjoglou loses woman of the year
Peggy Boutilier, a lacrosse and field hockey player at Virginia, was named NCAA woman of the year last night at a banquet in Indianapolis.
Maria Abatjoglou, a former Kansas tennis player, was one of 10 finalists for the award.
Abatjoglu, a senior from South Charleston, W.Va., completed her tennis eligibility at Kansas last spring and is scheduled to complete degrees in Spanish and philosophy in Spring 1999.
She was named to the GTE/COSIDA Academic All-American first team twice and she was a thirdteam Academic All-American in 1986.
Abatjoglu was named to the Phillips 66 Academic Big-Big 12 and All-Big 8 teams three times (1996, 1997, 1998).
During her senior year, Abatjoglou recorded a 9-5 singles record, an 11-5 doubles record and helped the team reach the final round of the 1998 NCAA team competition and win the regional title.
Abatjoglu won the singles title at the Washington Invitational and earned second place at the 1997 Ohio State Invitational.
She is a 1988 member of Sigma Delta Pi, the KU Athletic Corporation Board, the Spanish honors society and was president of the Kansas Student-Athlete Advisory Committee for two years. She volunteered for Habitat for Humanity and the Social Service League.

Scrimmage gives 'Hawks gauge
Basketball team has season's first practice
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
The dances were finished, Jerry Springer had gone home and Luke Axtell had croomed his last tune.
The basketball season officially began at 12:01 a.m. Saturday. The Kansas basketball team held an intra-squad scrimmage in front of a near capacity crowd at Allen Field House.
Although banged up and breathing hard, the Jayhawks ended the 25-minute scrimmage tied 32-32. Out with injuries were senior T.J. Pugh, ankle; junior Lester Earl, knee; and freshman Marlon London, back.
S
Coach Roy Williams said he would not judge the players on how they played during the scrimmage.
"I don't put much stock into it," Williams said. "I try to get a feel for how well conditioned they are. Usually it says 'not so good.'"
Several players dominated, despite not being in top basketball shape. Playing for the red team, Eric Chenowith, sophomore center, led all scorers with 14 points and eight rebounds.
Texas transfer Axtell must sit out a year because of NCAA rules but took advantage of his only chance to play this year. Axtell scored eight points and nailed a shot from behind the three-point arc on his first shot
of the evening.
"I'm glad to see Luke made his first shot," Williams said. "I'm sure that made him feel good, especially since he'll have to sit and watch all year."
Sophomore Kenny Gregory slammed and jammed his way through pregame warm ups with dunks and led the blue team with nine points.
"I feel healthy. This time last year, I wasn't healthy," Gregory said. "Tenon was a sample of what I'm going to show this year."
Gregory, who had back problems, said his back was better this year than last year.
Junior Nick Bradford said Late Night was an important start to the season.
"Tonight is important, because it brings the fans out and lets them know that basketball season is here." Bradford said. "It's a showcase of a great season ahead, and it's good for the new guys to see and enjoy."
In a low point of the evening, junior Ashante Johnson injured his knee while trying to block a shot. Williams said Johnson banged his knee and would wait to see how it responded to ice. Johnson did not practice in the Jayhawks' first real practice on Saturday. Pugh did not practice Saturday either, but Earl and London did.
The Jayhawks hope to get healthier as the season progresses.
"We're a little banged up right now." Bradford said. "As time goes on, we'll get better as we practice more and the season gets going."
The Kansas season begins at home with an exhibition game against the California All-Stars on Nov. 7.

'Huskers mash Kansas from the start
Football team's blunders keep Nebraska in running for title

it should have won this one.
Kansas can't say it should have won this one.
For the first time this season, the Jayhawks didn't lose a game in the fourth quarter.
They didn't allow a late touchdown or field goal, and they didn't throw an interception on the last play of the game.
Nebraska beat the Jayhawks 41-0 from the get-go.
"Td take a million losses in the fourth quarter to one like this," coach Terry Allen said. "Nebraska just kind of took over and rammed it down our throats."
The 'Hawks were walloped Saturday night by the 'Huskers. It was the 'Huskers' 30th straight win against the Jayhawks.
It also was their 46th straight home win.
And it kept the Cornhuskers in the running to capture the Big 12 North division title.
The Cornhuskers redeemed themselves after their disappointing 28-21 loss to Texas A&M last week. And the Iaukhavs made it easy for them.
"This was a really big win for us," Nebraska coach Frank Solich said. "After last week's loss, this game was monumental in terms of making sure we played hard by getting some points on the board, running the football and getting some things done defensively."
Once again, it was a story of missed opportunities and crucial mistakes by the 2-5, 0-5 Jayhawks. But there was one change in the 'Hawks game performance.

The offense that has been able to produce in all of Kansas' games couldn't produce a single point Saturday night.
"They're one of the nation's best defenses," quarterback Zac Wegner said. "I don't think they're any worse than last year's defense, and they won a national championship."
But Kansas was called for an offsides penalty on the play, and the down was replayed. Newcombe scored a touchdown on the next play, a 1-yard, over-the-tide into the end zone.
Kansas had a chance to score in the first quarter.

hawks' only chances to keep the 'Huskers from walking all over them.
At least, the officials said he made it into the end zone.
With 1:19 left, Nebraska's Joe Walker intercepted Weger's pass to Termaine Fulton on the 1-vard line.
"They were just giving them stuff right there," defensive end Dion Rayford said. "The instant replay clearly showed he didn't score."
Newcombe himself admitted he didn't think he had gotten in.
But the call was made, and those were the Jay.
"It would have been fun to have some of those situations go in our favor, to have some positive things happen," Allen said. "If you come into Lincoln, you have to have some good things happen for your football team early to build their confidence. Obviously, that didn't happen for us, and again you have the snowballing effect simply going in the other direction."
One thing they know they won't do is give up.
And for the umpententh time this season, the Jayhawks are wondering what to do now as they return home this weekend to face 17th-ranked Colorado.
"We've got no choice," said back back Mitch Bowles, who pulled his hamstring in the first quarter of the game. "There are no
"We're excited about coming home for homecoming, and, hey, when you've been through what you've been through, you've got to go in and have some positive things happen." Allen said. "Maybe this might be the week for us."
quitters on this team. That's not why we work hard all year round."
And because the Jayhawks are still in search of their first conference victory, they have nowhere to go but up.

Women playing University sports celebrate 30 years
By Sam Mellinger
Kansas sportswriter
By Sam Mellinger
Kansas welcomed back about 200 alumni this weekend for the 30-year anniversary of women's athletics.
The celebration included a tour of Kansas athletics facilities, a picnic outside Anschutz Science Library and a golf outing at Alvamar Country Club, 1800 Crossgate Drive.
"I'm just thankful that I'm still around to see it all," said women's basketball coach Marian Washington, who was honored at Late Night.
Saturday morning, 162 people gathered at Adams Alumni Center for an alumni
In addition to serving as basketball coach since 1973, Washington was the women's athletics director from 1974 to 1981, and founded the women's track and field team.
---
Also recognized at Late Night was Marlene Mawson, who started women's athletics at Kansas in 1968 with a $2,000 budget.
Washington: Has been basketball coach since 1973.
Mawson is now the chairperson of the health and physical education department at Illinois State and said making the trip to Lawrence this weekend was a no-brainer.
"I wouldn't miss it for anything," she said. "I've got to be proud of what's happened. It will always be my passion to help women's sports."
Thirty-eight former athletes were given varsity letters at the brunch. The recipients played sports at Kansas before women athletes were recompized with letters.
"It was kind of a dream come true," said Julie Miller, who played field hockey, softball and volleyball from 1977-81. "I just thought it was excellent. Everybody just outdid themselves."
Being the center of so much attention was a little foreign and flattering for many of the former athletes.
"Back then, it seemed like we were fighting anything and everything to be able to play," Miller said. "To be put on the pedestal for a weekend with all that recognition, it was overwhelming."
Former coaches on hand at the brunch included Jack Isgur, the first volleyball coach. Nancy Boozer, the first women's golf coach, Dianna Beebe, field hockey coach, Suzi Lauer, tennis coach, and Bob Lockwood, gymnastics coach.
Janet Justus and Tricia Bork were given Achievement Awards. Justus is the primary staff liaison to both the NCAA Committee on Women's Athletics and the NCAA Division I Student-Athlete Advisory Committee and Bork is the NCAA vice president for championships.
Washington has played many roles in getting women's athletics off the ground.
"This weekend was great," she said about 30 minutes before conducting the basketball team's first practice of the season. "We've been able to celebrate the past; now we need to focus in on the present."

lead a relentless attack, and Yankees' fielding sparkled last night in a 9-3 romp against San Diego for a 2-0 lead in the World Series.
After winning game one by playing home-run derby, the Yankees showed off their whole potent package in game
two. The Padres never had a chance, with rookie Ricky Ledee's RBI single making it 7-0 in the third and chasing starter Amy Ashby
By the time Posada's two-run homer in the fifth made it 9-1, the sellout crowd of 56,692 was going crazy while several Padres players were standing with heads down and hands on hips.
That was more than plenty for Hernandez, the Cuban defector who floated to freedom less than 10 months ago and helped save New York's season with a win in game four of the American League Championship Series.
The Padres face a tough task in trying to regroup for game three on Tuesday night at San Diego. David Cone will start for New York against National League Conference MVP Sterling Hitchcock, a former Yankees pitcher.

Kansas volleyball wins bump up record
Jayhawks show talent to Late Night crowd by defeating Cyclones
With half of the teams in the Big 12 Conference ranked in the Top 25, coach Ray Bechard said that every conference win was a big one.

In front of a pre-Late Night with Roy Williams crowd of more than 13,000 people Friday night, Kansas defeated an inexperienced Iowa State team 15-12, 15-8 and 16-14. The Cyclones fell to 2-17 and remained winless in the Big 12 conference.
The Kansas volleyball team will go into its second meeting of the season with No. 3 Nebraska and No. 12 Colorado next weekend with a little more confidence after last weekend's sweep of Iowa State and Missouri.
Despite having an overwhelming talent advantage — Iowa State has seven walk-on players who received scholarships this year the Jayhawks couldn't dominate the match.

The Jayhawks ended a five-match conference losing streak with the two wins at home Friday and Saturday, improving to 13-7 overall and 3-5 in the Big 12.
Kansas coach Ray Bechard said
"I thought the whole environment created a little anxiety." Bechard said. "But in the end, it proved to be beneficial for us when game three was close."
that the crowd may have increased the pressure on the Jayhawks.
After the Jayhawks won the first two games with relative ease, they had to battle back from a 7-11 deficit in the game three. They pulled even at 12, and again at 14 before defeating Cyclones 16-14.
Although it was a much-needed league win, the Jayhawks weren't satisfied with the wav they plued.
The Jayhawks did just that. In fact, Bechard said that it was the best team has played in a while
Setter Laura Rohde said that the Jayhawks needed to work on not being hesitant.
"We're a little disappointed," said outside hitter Leslie Murkeypile. "We were getting the job done but we weren't getting excited, and we didn't play as well as we wanted."
"We didn't have as many errors, but I think we played tentative," Rohde said. "It was just a little bit of nervousness with the crowd, but we have to focus on us not on things around us."
Rohde said that the Jayhawks knew they would have to play better on Saturday if they were to beat Missouri, who came into the match 11-8 overall. 2-4 in the conference.
The Jayhawks, led by outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht with 12 kills, swept Missouri 16-14, 15-11 and 15-8. Albrecht said the team made a decision before the match
"We played well," Bechard said. "It was a good team effort. We had a good balance tonight."

"We knew we could do it together," Albrecht said. "It played good as a team. No one stood out and no one had to bear the load."

After four straight wins at one of the nation's most prestigious tennis tournaments, Kansas senior tennis player Luis Uribe finally lost.

'Husker backs run wild against Kansas defense
By Kevin C. Wilson Associate sports editor
Lincoln, Neb. — The high-powered Nebraska rushing attack gained a season-high 466 yards and scored five touchdowns in the Cornhuskers 41-0 steamrolling the Jayhawks on Saturday.
Led by Corell Buckhalter's 133 rushing yards and a career-high three touchdowns, Nebraska amassed a season-high 545 total yards against Kansas' porous defense.
Kansas coach Terry Allen said that the Cornhuskers were able to easily run the ball against Kansas.
"They had 500 some yards, and I would venture to say they had 350 to 400 yards between the tackles." Allen said. "The thing that killed us was we played really good perimeter defense, but they hurt us up the middle."
This story made Naharon had in mind
After gaining 73 yards rushing yards two weeks ago and 141 last week, the Huskers raided themselves to noower football.
"We knew we were going to have to win the game between the tackles,"
we knew we were going.
Cormhusker center Josh Heskew said. "We went back to basic Nebraska football."
The Huskers practiced all week on improving their sputtering rushing attack.
Buckhalter said that the team knew all week that it was going to play power football against Kansas
"We went back to basic Nebraska football."
Josh Heskew Nebraska center
"running straight at people is my type of football, and I was very effective today," Buckhalter said.
Buckhalter said that his lack of playing time has not been frustrating and that he has kept a positive attitude.
So was Nebraska quarterback Bobby Newcombe.
Buckhalter, starting in place of the injured DeAngelo Evans, rumbled for a 32-yard touchdown on the Huskers first drive and added scoring runs of six yards and three yards in three quarters of play.
"He played excellent," Newcombe said. "Buck played hard and went after every yard he could."
"My teammates know I can go out there and get the job done," he said. "I'm happy everything worked out well today."
However, Buckhalter was not the only Cornhusker to penetrate the Jayhawk defense. Third-string I-back Dan Alexander ran for a career-high 90 yards and two other Nebraska players gained more than 60 yards rushing
Nebraska head coach Frank Solich said that he was impressed with the production of his backfield.
"I thought each of our backs ran very, very hard," Solch said. "I thought Correll made very quick decisions and was a very slashing type runner that didn't waste any time. In our style of offense, we need that type of runner. When they had opportunities, all of our backs did well."
And when that happens Nebraska usually wins. The 'Huskers have won 88 consecutive games in which they have rushed for 300 or more vards.

AIDS vaccine experiment gives hope to researchers Med Center team believes they may be on track to cure
By Jason Poarce
Kansan staff writer
A virologist at the Kansas University Medical Center believes that a vaccine to treat and prevent the AIDS virus in humans may be on the horizon.
Bill Narayan said he and his team of 20 researchers have gone from disbelief that a vaccine would be developed a few years ago to a highly positive outlook.
"I was one who figured it would never happen until we did the experiment on the monkeys," he said.
That experiment, Narayan said, included giving 12 monkeys an AIDS vaccination—six orally and six by an injection — in late 1996. Then in February of 1997, the monkeys were infected with the virus that causes AIDS.
He said the result of the test showed that none of the six monkeys given the oral vaccine were infected with the virus, and only two of the six monkeys injected with the vaccine were infected, he said.
He said the vaccine worked because it contained a mild form of the virus, which allowed the monkeys to build resistance by producing antibodies.
His findings, published in the November issue of Journal of Virology, could pave the way for future tests to see whether the vaccine also can kill the AIDS virus.
"This is a protective molecule...nobody knows how long it will protect for," he said. "That is what we want to find out."
The next experiment for Narayan and his team will be to give the oral vaccine to monkeys that already have the AIDS virus.
"Protein can't make you sick or give you side effects," he said.
Narayan said the vaccine,which is taken in a single oral dose,would be a safe human product because it is made of protein.
"If that works, then we will think about testing on humans with the virus," he said. "It would be exactly the opposite on humans — therapeutic first then preventive."
Anil Kunaar, a researcher who works with Narayan, said the team was trying different combinations of the vaccine to find out how to directly kill the AIDS virus.
"The beauty of the system is that an oral-drop immunization is generally very effective," Kunaar said.
The team's goal is to present the research to the Food and Drug Administration by July 1999 for approval to test the vaccine on humans.
The researchers and Narayan receive most of their $1 million yearly budget from the National Institutes of Health.
Narayan's team is not the only group moving in the direction of an AIDS vaccine.
One of the projects, AIDSVAX, is in the final stage of testing on people, and 5,000 volunteers are being recruited across the United States including Kansas City.

that Hannah is less than two weeks away.
It's autumn in Lawrence.
"By far my favorite season has got to be autumn, because we don't have autumn back home," said Andrea Bates-Chacon, Guatemala City, Guatemala, sonhonore.
Batres-Chacon said the weather could be similar in Guatemala but the leaves there did not change colors.
The trees in Lawrence are typically the most brilliantly colored during the middle of October, said Craig Martin, professor of botany. This week, he said, they probably would peak.
Martin said the primary cue for leaves to begin changing was the decrease in daylight. But if the schedule is off by a week, he said, it would be because of unusual temperature conditions.
Autumn is a perfect time to take romantic walks with her boyfriend to look at the leaves, Batres-Chacon said. She said she also enjoyed riding bicycles and playing Frisbee during the cool sunny days of autumn.

Greek leaders: Alcohol-free is advantageous
Kansan staff writer
By Melody Ard
Leaders of five national greek organizations identified five advantages to alcohol-free housing at a meeting last night.
Tom Balzer, Phi Delta Theta fraternity; David Glassman, Sigma Nu fraternity; Bill Tallman, Delta Chi fraternity; Jon Sticka, Phi Gamma Delta fraternity; and Ginny Carroll, Alpha Xi Delta sorority, spoke to about 100 people at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
In the presentation, the group listed a return to original focus, improved academic performance, liability insurance costs, the needs of today's students and alumni involvement as positive aspects of alcohol-free houses.
greek houses would be a good place to begin improvements.
Although Glassman said alcohol was not the only thing that gave the greek community a negative image on some college campuses, he said removing alcohol from
Glassman said alcohol was the source of 80 percent of insurance claims at fraternity houses, and the cost of insuring those houses was becoming nearly unaffordable.
"Millions of dollars have been spent to pay for damage done," he said. "But the human cost is really what matters to organizations who speak to brotherhood and sisterhood."

Tallman said another key issue was returning the fraternity focus to why members joined in the first place.
Glassman: In favou

greek houses
"More and more students are concerned with whether or not they will make friends." Tallman said. "It's not the big house or intramural trophies that make them join. One thing alcohol-free houses will do is make sure the focus is on things that matter."
Alcohol was not the reason most members became involved in greek organizations, he said.
The majority of the meeting focused on fraternity, but Car-

coll included a sorority perspective on alcohol-free housing.
"Women's role in this is as important as
the men's," she said. "If sorority women say they are only going to alcohol-free parties, do you think fraternities with alcohol flowing out of their windows are going to stand there by themselves?"
Amy Heinemann, Newton senior and president of Alpha Xi Delta, said she came to learn more about the process and to encourage her chapter to become involved.
The group of national leaders met with students this weekend at Greek Endeavor and with alumni and University administrators yesterday.
Jennifer Kinney, assistant director of greek programs, risk management and education, said the group was brought to the University following discussions by the presidents of the KU chapters of Delta Chi, Sigma Nu, Phi Delta Theta and Phi Gamma Delta fraternities. Those four fraternities have made commitments to make their houses alcohol-free.

KU loses biology professor to illness
By Liz Wriston
Kansas staff writer
The University of Kansas lost a researcher, teacher and scholar on Saturday.
William J. Bell, a professor of ontology and former chairman of the department, died in his McLouth home after a long illness. He was 55 years old.
Michael Greenfield, professor and chair of the entomology department, said he knew Bell reasonably well and that his death was devastating for the University.
A memorial service will be held in Danforth Chapel tomorrow at 4:45 p.m.
"It's been a terrible loss for our department, the students, faculty and the University." Greenfield said.
Bell was appointed as an assistant professor of entomology at the University in 1970, and he became a full professor in 1976.
He served as associate dean of research administration from 1974 to 1976 and as chair of the entomology department from 1987 to 1993.
Larry Kipp, adjunct assistant professor in entomology and biological science, was advised by Bell while a graduate student at the University. Later, Bell asked him to become a member of the entomology faculty. In 1989, Kipp collaborated with Bell on a project involving Hawaiian fruit flies.
"It's awful. I hate to see anybody die before their time, and he was only 55 years old," Kipp said. "It's a personal loss to myself, but it's also a loss for those in the department, today's students and those students in the future who never got the
Becca Diebolt, Lawrence junior, said,
"Everyone who knew Dr. Bell knew what a wonderful person he was."
Bell was born Jan. 10, 1943 in Boston, Mass., and earned degrees from Bridgewater State College in Bridgewater, Mass., the University of Massachusetts in Amherst, Mass. and the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.
He was awarded the Olin Petefish Award for Research Accomplishments in Basic Science by the University in 1986.
Bell also was prominent in academic editing. He was editor of the Journal of the Kansas Entomological Society from 1982 to 1984 and the editor of Environmental Entology from 1984 to 1987. He initiated the Journal of Insect Behavior in 1988 and served as its editor until his death.
Bell was the author of more than 100 research and review articles on topics including insect behavior, development and physiology. He also wrote two books and was writing his third on the biology of cockroaches at the time of his death.
Bell is survived by his parents, William and May Bell of Melbourne, Fla., his sister, June Little of Mission Viejo, Calif., his son, Calder of Yachats, Ore., and his former wife, Claire, of Eugene, Ore.

KU engineering council improves, wins award
The University of Kansas Engineering Student Council won the award of most improved council during the weekend at the national competition at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind.
The award was announced at 4 p.m.yesterday in 2002 Learned Hall.
Marcus Dunavan, council secretary, said the council won the award because it had turned itself into a leader in the department of engineering.
"In the past, the council was not really a voice for the organizations in the department," he said. "But now we provide all sorts of opportunities and services for engineering students."
He said the lounge had been closed down earlier this semester, because vandals had damaged some of the furniture.
The council got new furniture for the lounge and installed surveillance cameras.
Kim Raymoure, council president, said that this year the council had instituted representation at council meetings.
She said the council also had put in place an introduction to the engineering program for new students.

More counterfeit bills surface in Lawrence
Employees at Wescoe Terrace dis covered a counterfeit $10 bill Thursday. The bill had been spent at the cafeteria the day before.
According to Lawrence police, about 35 counterfeit $10 bills have been passed at 20 businesses in Lawrence this month. Three Lawrence businesses — Dos Hombres, 815 New Hampshire St.; Hastings, 1900 W. 23rd St.; and Hy-Vee, 3504 Clinton Parkway — reported three more counterfeit bills to Lawrence police yesterday.
On Wednesday, another counterfeit $10 bill was discovered at Wescoe Terrace when a KU professor unknownly tried to spend it. The incidents were unrelated, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Mailen said the two incidents at Wescoe Terrace were the only ones he knew of that had occurred on campus. He said the Public Safety Office had alerted various campus businesses about the counterfeit bills.
All of the bilts are photocopies of the same original $10 bill, so all have the same serial number, Mailen said.
"We're working with the Lawrence police to try to locate the source," he said.
Student's car vandalized after road argument
A KU student's vehicle was damaged after an argument with two people Saturday night in what the KU Public Safety Office called a road rage scenario.
A man and a woman were arrested for beating the car with a crowbar, Sgt. Trov Mailen said.
"The two arrested were upset with something the victim had done coming into town," he said.
They followed the student to Lot 107, east of Sellards Scholarship Hall, where the three exchanged words. The two people stayed in the parking lot after the student had left, and, between 11 and 11:10 p.m., they damaged his vehicle and left the scene. Mailen said.
"A short time later, an officer caught up to them and made the arrest," he said.
The woman was arrested for drunk driving, driving on a suspended license and criminal damage to property. The man was arrested for criminal damage to property.
Student gets injured battered by two men
A KU student filed charges of aggravated battery after a fight with two men at 2 :15 a.m. Saturday in the 1200 block of Oread Avenue, the KU Public Safety Office said.
The student did not know the two men, and he said he did not initiate the fight. The fight started as a verbal argument and escalated to blows, said Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office.
"It looked like a couple of guys looking to stir something up," he said.
The student was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital for a broken hand and a cut on his face that required stitches, Maliad said.
No arrests have been made. Mailen said the officer questioned all of the men, and all were released pending further information.
When the two suspects were interviewed, Mailen said that the officer did not have complete information from the student, who had been taken to the hospital to receive treatment for his injuries.

The programs send students to sites across the United States to spend a week participating in intense community service work.
Examples from past years include living and working in homeless shelters and working with disadvantaged children in urban schools.
Volunteers must take a course called Special Projects in the community in the department of human development and family life.
Participants will learn how to deal with issues that may confront them on their alternative spring breaks.
This year there are 11 sites, said Brenda Chung, Hong Kong junior and center representative.
The program will be different from past years because participants will include students from Lawrence High School and Haskell Indian Nations University.
"You find how much you have," Chung said. "You really appreciate what you have."

Man steals food, snacks from two apartments
Four Lawrence residents, three of them KU students, were the victims of two separate robbery attempts early Sunday morning in an apartment complex in the 600 block of Gateway Court.
The three female KU students — two 19 years old and one 20 years old — all live in the apartment at 660 Gateway Court.
The other victim, a 20-year-old Lawrence man, lives in a different apartment in the same block
The robberies began shortly before 4 a.m. Sunday.
Lawrence police said the victim saw a 6-foot tall man wearing a yellow T-shirt standing in the victim's living room.
"The victim's dog began to grow, and the victim told the man to leave," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "Before the man left, he took
some food from the victim's fridge."
Wheeler said the man took some cheese and a burrito.
A man matching the same description entered the women's neighbouring apartment at 4:20 a.m.

are two different pigments, said Martin. Yellow pigment is produced during the summer and not influenced by recent weather conditions.
Martin said most people judged the trees' brilliance each year by the amount of red in the leaves.
"Your classics around here are the maples." Martin said.
The amount of red pigment synthesized depends on recent weather conditions. Martin said the ideal conditions for a lot of red were warm sunny days, cool but not freezing
nights and a mild drought. He said he had not expected as much red pigment this year because of the recent rain but was pleasantly surprised.
Mike Akulow, Topeka National Weather Service meteorologist, said the average rainfall from October was 2.72 inches and already there had been 3.07 inches.
He said the average temperature conditions for mid to late October were a high of 65 to 68 degrees and a low of 40 degrees.

Week focuses on alcohol safety
Activities provide dry events for students
By Sue Franke Kansan staff writer
On the lawn in front of Stauffer-Flint Hall tomorrow, someone will be trumped in a car.
Firefighters will slice through metal using the jaws of life to rescue the individual.
Two cars, accident victims, police officers,
firefighters and medics will be on the scene of this accident, which will be staged at 12:15 p.m.
It is one of many events planned as part of what the University of Kansas is calling Alcohol Responsibility Week.
The week's non-alcohol events are sponsored by several organizations, including Watkins Memorial Health Center.
"The purpose of the week is to give students alternative events to participate in that do not involve drinking," said Julie Francis, a health educator for Watkins. "We want people to stop and think about alcohol use and be more responsible if they do drink but also to be able to feel more comfortable at events if they don't drink."
Tonight is movie night. Buses will leave at 6:30 p.m. from Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin and Ellsworth residence halls and travel to Olathe's AMC Theaters. Students can see any movie for $7.55 by showing their KUID. Students with Mega-Movie Deal coupons can see the movie and get $20 of concessions for $5.75.
Following the mock accident, students can head to the Jaybowl in the Kansas Union and bowl for $1.50.
On Thursday, students who like disco can go to "Club Mac" at McCollum for the
annual dance and listen to tunes played by a disc locket for free.
From 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. Friday, a homecoming dance will take place at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave. The dance is not sponsored by the organization.
"We don't think there has been a campuswide homecoming舞 in 15 years," said Randy Timm, assistant director of housing.
Timm said national studies on alcohol use have shown that university students have asked for alcohol-free events.
The week will conclude with a tailgate party from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. Saturday on Campanile Hill to celebrate the homecoming football game between the University and the University of Colorado, Free food will be served.
For more information on any of these events, contact Julie Francis at 864-9572.
Pulitzer Prize-winning author to lecture about his experiences
By Angela Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Buzz Bissinger will venture from his East Coast
roots today to visit the Midwest and the University of Kansas.
Bissinger, the author of "Friday Night Lights", will speak tonight at 7:30 at the Kansas Union Ballroom. Bissinger will discuss his experiences as a writer, especially his experiences while researching his latest book "A Prayer for the City."
PETER HARRIS
Cody Simms, forums coordinator for Student Union Activities, said this was Bissinger's first public speaking appearance away from the East Coast. Simms said Bissinger, who lives in Philadelphia, usually spoke at East Coast city councils and universities.
Buzz Bissinger. Will discuss his writing experiences.
Bissinger said he was happy to have an opportunity to lecture in the Midwest.
"We're really excited that SUA is sponsoring Bissinger, because he is someone on the
rise," Simms said. "Hopefully he'll remember KU as the first Midwest school to host him."
Simms said Bissinger's novel, "A Prayer for the City," explored the crumbling urban areas of Philadelphia.
Simms said that to research "Prayer," Bissinger followed Philadelphia's mayor, Edward G. Rendell, for more than five years.
Bissinger said that because he had complete access to Mayor Rendell's office and files, he was able to see the politician in a new light.
"I have never been with a man so charismatic and so unpredictable," Bissinger said. "At the time people were beginning to lose faith in the city, and Mayor Rendell really took Philadelphia on its bootstraps, and he has restored that faith."
Bissinger said cities smaller than Philadelphia had the same problems as the large city.
"The same thing is happening in Kansas City as Philadelphia or Los Angeles," he said. "It just may not have the same intensity."
"Friday Night Lights," published in 1990, examined the impact of high school football in Odessa, Texas. Bissinger, a New York City native, moved to Odessa for one year to write the book.
"Hopefully he'll remember KU as the first midwest school to host him."
Cody Simms Forums coordinator for SUA
"If I hadn't lived in Odessa and only gone down on weekends, it would've been a shell of a book," Bissinger said. "By living and breathing with the team every day, I was able to write with confidence and clarity."
Citizens of that western Texas town of 96,000 said high school football was a way of bringing a community together.
Becki Murphy, public information coordinator for Odessa, said she grew up in Midland, a town 20 miles east of Odessa.
"It's become a tradition to watch football games on Friday nights," Murphy said. "It's one of the great entertainments. So many people know kids who are playing, or they have kids on the team."
The lecture is free to the public. Simms said about 700 vouchers were available at the SUA box office.
After the lecture, Bissinger will have a book signing.

Dance company use bodies to communicate social issues
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan Staff writer
When Jennifer Buscher, Topea junior, traveled to London last Spring break she saw "We Set Out Early... Visibility Was Poor," by the Bill T. Jones/Arnie Zane Dance Company.
Tonight, students and members of the community will have the chance to check the work of this international company, which is coming back for the third time to perform in the Lied Center.
Although the company focuses some of its work on controversial issues, using body movements and music as a channel for their message, Buscher said this specific work emphasized movement and the relationship among the dancers on stage.
"They left a lot for the audience to interpret themselves, rather than presenting a fixed image," she said.
Buscher was one of the 40 people that attended Bill T. Jones' lecture last night at Borders bookstore, 700 New Hampshire St.
The interactive discussion ranged from the duties of an artist to the meaning of art. Jones also talked about his latest
piece, which will be presented at 8 p.m.
Janet Wong, a member of the company, said. "It is not a narrative. Ten people perform different shapes and sizes in relation with the music to tell the story."
Wong also taught a master class yesterday afternoon to Advanced Ballet students at the University.
Jacqueline Davis, director of the Lied Center, said she had extra work with the company last time it came to campus. Its presentation of "Last Supper at Uncle Tom's Cabin/The promise Land" had 10 minutes of nudity and involved 52 members of the community.
She said she talked to community leaders to prepare them to face the play with an open mind.
"Their piece dealt with issues such as homophobia, religion, death and racism," Davis said. "The objective of the play was to communicate in a very simple way that we are all the same when we get rid of what make us different. A very simple notion, but a very provocative way to tell that."
Tickets are still available for tonight's performance and range from $20 to $25 for the public and $10 to $12.50 for students.

Arts in Lawrence need support from the community to survive
In another move demonstrative of the declining support for the arts in Lawrence, the Lawrence Art Guild is being forced to consider closing its art gallery in the Lawrence Riverfront Plaza.
Following the resignation two weeks ago of Sharon Falkner, the gallery's director, guild members will meet Oct. 30 to determine the fate of the gallery, established in 1996 and host to the works of local and regional artists.
The gallery, which local painter Mick Braa said is run on a shoestring budget, experienced mild success during the first year and a half of its existence. During that time, the gallery drew as many as 200 spectators weekly and received a substantial number of volunteer hours from local artists to keep its doors open.
But during the last year, participatory local artists have become burdened by the lack of supportive clientele in the Lawrence area, and as the numbers of gallery visitors decreased, so did the amount of volunteer help required to keep the gallery running.
The gallery is housed in rent-free space on the second floor of the Riverfront Plaza, but the guild still has to muster up several hundred dollars a month to finance its operation.
Closing the Lawrence Art Guild would strike a blow to local artists.
In light of the increasing lack of support, the guild discussed the option of closing the gallery solely on the basis of economics. This development spurred Falkner's highly publicized resignation, and with the gallery now being managed by guild board members, its future is in even more serious limbo.
A facet of the gallery's failure can be attributed purely to its location. The traffic at the Riverfront Plaza seems almost dead. Therefore, an obvious alternative to shutting down the gallery is to find another location, perhaps on a more frequent part of Massachusetts Street. But this, of course, would require the financial support of other local organizations, the aid of community volunteers and increased involvement by student and local artists.
Another option is setting up the gallery in the potentially expanded space of the Lawrence Arts Center. But as yet another disheartening example of art proponents encountering closed doors, the arts center expansion proposal has run into strong opposition from community members fearful of harming the neighboring Carnegie Library's historical integrity.
In addition to seeking a new location and different avenues of support for the Riverfront gallery, the arts cause in Lawrence could be bolstered by increasing artists' involvement in public works projects and establishing a county arts council to bring together small local art groups.
The bottom line is that more Lawrence citizens, including students, need to support local art. We are nearing the day when the only public access art galleries in town will be the Lawrence Arts Center gallery, which might be denied expansion, and the University gallery, which was displaced by commercial interests earlier this semester. We must rescue this situation before the subversion of and decline in support for local art goes too far.

Nation must confront Shepard's death
Less than a week before National Coming Out Day, Matthew Shepard, a gay student from the University of Wyoming, was robbed, brutally beaten, lashed to a split rail fence in sub-freezing weather and left to die.
His assailants probably chose him because he posed little physical threat to them and because he was gay. Until about this nation re-examines its ideas about homosexuality, gay men or lesbians who dare to be true to themselves will be easy targets.
He succumbed to his injuries last week, during the final hours of a day that was celebrated by gay men and lesbians as a day of freedom. We must never forget what happened to Shepard on the night that he was attacked.
Hate crimes don't happen just in faraway places to strangers. They happen anywhere people are too afraid or apathetic to speak out against the crimes. They happen in
this community. A month ago, vandals burned a gay-pride flag where it hung on the side of a house.
As long as people do nothing, hate crimes will continue. As long as slurs and ignorance go unchallenged, there will be tolerance for a rising tide of hatred. As long as people ignore violence in hopes that it will disappear, people like Shepard's attackers will see nothing wrong with their actions.

Perspective
Hate-crime laws invite more distrust, violence
The murder of Matthew Shepard touched off a wave of denouncements, from Don Rowland, office coordinator of the KU student organization Queers and
It has been odd to watch both conservatives and gay activists agreeing to the point where they are trying to see who can best articulate the awfulness of the arrogacy.
PETER GRAHAM
Allies, to President Clinton. If anything good can possibly result from this tragedy, it has been that nobody is staying silent.
Andrew Marino
opinion @ kansan.com
The least people should be able to expect is that nothing should go
nothing else bad should come of it.
Unfortunately, Rowland and Clinton seem intent on remembering Shepard by assaulting the First Amendment. At a memorial service last Monday outside the Kansas Union, Rowland asked the public to support The Hate Crime Prevention Act of 1998 now under consideration by the U.S. Congress. The bill would enhance penalties for violent crimes whose victims are chosen because of their sexual orientation.
However, the case surrounding Shepard's death illustrates why enacting hate-crime legislation is a bad idea.
Russell Henderson and Aaron McKinney were charged with aggravated robbery and kidnapping with intent to inflict bodily injury or terrorize the victim and first degree murder making them eligible for execution — hate crime or not.
Right now, the law doesn't care whether the victim was gay. If someone commits
cold-blooded murder, they will be executed or put away for life. All human beings are given the same value. Hate-crime laws could change the equation. All of a sudden, murdering a person belonging to one group of people isn't as bad as killing someone from another.
The second problem with the legislation is determining just what constitutes a hate crime. Police investigating Shepard's death think that robbery was the primary motive and that he was only in part chosen because he was gay. How would a prosecutor prove that homophobia was running through the killers' minds when the police evidence doesn't necessarily prove it?
Henderson and McKinney probably would be subjected to expansive background checks. They would be on trial for their opinions. The government would be punishing someone for what are thought crimes. Repercussions for thoughts and ideas Rowland, Clinton and other reactionaries calling for expanding hate-crime laws would undoubtedly be against.
It surely is not a good idea to treat crimes against one class more seriously than other crimes of the same nature.
The purpose of these laws may be to reduce hatred, but the kind of thinking behind such laws may lead to less tolerance. Why not pass tougher laws and distribute longer sentences for all attacks on humans? This is an agenda that could gain the support of groups such as Queers and Allies and the Christian Coalition — making that an issue they agree on.

Unpredictable weather plagues life on campus

labor laws — to mess with our weather patterns.
El Nino, being a new weather system, takes its time much like any young child. We've been hearing about this kid since September of last year. As we want nice, consistent weather, the bastard child has begun to wreak havoc upon the collective psyche of the KU student body: The weather starts out cold and gloomy, or cold and sunny, or rainy and gloomy, so on and so forth, and continues that way for several days. Then, as if by magic, it all goes away overnight and the campus awakens to a beautiful, almost cliched, spring day.
We all comment on the lovely weather we're having and nay saying the fore-
Then, the very next day, the evil returns — bit by bit. It gets a little windy, then the clouds begin to roll in and then the temperature drops. Slowly but surely, we go back to that lousy weather we swore couldn't possibly return.
The weather stays evil for several days, with us cursing Bryan Busy all the while, then the pattern repeats itself. Cunning. So cunning and evil that El Niño seems to be a villain that Christopher Walken would play in an instant.
But the wind always is noticed here. Why? Because we're on a hill, surrounded by the plains. Wind comes to us like a tornado to a trailer park. It's as if we have a huge sign saying, "Kick me, blow me away, make it next to impossible to get my cigarette lit." Oh, well. Just remember — El Niño is a child. And kids grow up so fast these days that soon he'll stop his rambunctious ways to go sulk in his room, wearing all black, and really understanding the lyrics to "Smells Like Teen Spirit."
caster's predictions for the next day — "Temporary my butt! It can't go away! He's only a scientist with years of training and experience. What could he possibly know?"
And it is all the more evil by the wind — the howling, screeching, never-ceasing wind. Oops, got a little carried away.

Feedback
KU has no right to censor internet
1
In Wednesday's Kansan, Liz Wristen reported the KU Facts Advisory Committee is developing University internet content policies. Issues such as censorship, on-site links, and restricting student web sites for only instructional research projects relating to a University mission were discussed in the article.
I reason two issues are at play here: affiliation and content.
First, student web pages aren't allowed a direct www.ukans.edu domain, although the ukans.edu still
appears in the location, just as it does on an e-mail account.
If I receive e-mail from a ukans.edu location, I don't assume whoever sent it is representing KU so why would I think differently of a site I am visiting on the web? For the sake of argument, I must assume someone viewing a site is unable to distinguish the difference, so I suggest a possible, simple solution.
If not allowed access to the www.ukans.edu domain, a site could explicitly state "This site is listed by the KU Campus Internet Association, but otherwise not officially affiliated with the
University of Kansas." For example, you can view my mostly informative site at http://falcon.cc.ukans.edu/~sbcarter.
A censor is a supervisor of public morals, someone who tells people how to behave and whose task it is to examine literature, etc., and to remove or prohibit anything considered immoral.
If we don't tolerate censorship in University libraries, then why is it even being considered for the electronic version.

Campus offers camping rentals
KU students, faculty may rent outdoors equipment at Jaybowl
By Chris Hopkins
Special to the Konson
KU student campers may find that it is hard to store their tent, sleeping bag, camp stove and ice chest in their dorm room closet.
Luckily, Wilderness Discovery, an outdoor equipment outlet, rents camping equipment to students, faculty and staff at the University of Kansas.
Wilderness Discovery, located at Jaybowl on the first floor of the Kansas Union, was started in the late 70s by Student Union Activities to provide students with camping equipment at a reasonable price, said Mike Fine, recreations coordinator.
The service was taken over by Jaybowl when SUA disbanded its outdoor recreation committee in 1991.
A rented tent, sleeping bags, sleeping pads, a stove, a lantern and an ice chest would run four people $101 total for three days.
A more intimate two-person weekend would cost $48.50 total, including a tent, one sleeping pad, one sleeping bag, a stove, a lantern and an ice chest.
Fine said he was unsure whether campers could zip two bags together but said it was worth a shot. The extra bag would bump up the intimate weekend price to $59.50.
Tom Partridge, Wilderness Discovery coordinator,
said all the equipment was less than five years old.
Wilderness Discovery only rents equipment to people associated with the University. A current KUID is necessary at checkout, and a $100 deposit is required for all rentals.
Rather than considering Wilderness Discovery a rival, local outdoor sports stores said they liked the program.
Bowen Pope works for Sunflower Outdoor and Bike Shop, 804 Massachusetts St., which sells bicycles, canoes and kayaks, as well as rock climbing and camping equipment. He said he liked the idea of Wilderness Discovery attracting more business to the camp industry.
WILDERNESS DISCOVERY PRICE LIST:
Items First day Each Additional Day
Tents:
4-person $10 $5.50
2-person $7 $3.50
Canopy $5 $4
Sleeping Bags $4 $3.50
Sleeping Pads $1.50 $1
Backpack $5 $4
Stoves:
Double Burner $3.50 $2.50
Single Burner $2.50 $2
Fuel Bottle $2.50 $0
Cook Kit $3.50 $2.25
Lanterns
Gas $3 $2.50
Fluorescent $3 $2.50
Sport Light $2 $1.50
Ice Chest (12 gallon) $2 $1.75
Water Cooler (5 gallon) $1.50 $1.25
Water Jug (2 gallon) $1.50 $1.25
"It's a great way just to kind of adventure into the sport," he said. "You know, see if it's for you."
Matt Roggy is the manager of The Backwoods Equipment Company Inc., 916 Massachusetts St. , which concentrates on camping, rock climbing equipment and outdoor clothing. He said Wilderness Discovery was a great benefit to the University.
"We have a lot of people that come in here and ask us if we rent equipment, and we don't." he said.
Neither Pope or Roggy realized the service existed, but said they would be sure to inform people who asked about renting equipment.
Roggy said the tents used by Wilderness Discovery, Eureka Timberlines, are a middle-of-the-line quality tent. They rank somewhere between lower priced tents available at Wal-Mart and SuperTarget and the more expensive tents on the market, he said.
Wilderness Discovery usually gets about 15 rentals per weekend in the fall, so it is best to reserve equipment in advance. Partridge said.
Lecture to focus on Brazilian pianist
Bv Steph Brewer
By Steph Brewer and Mariana Paiva
Kansas staff writers
After he played a concert 20 years ago, University of Kansas Cordelia Brown Murphy distinguished professor of piano Sequeira Costa was approached by an audience member requesting an autographed photo.
Last year in New York, that audience member, Brazilian pianist Ciro Goncalves Dias Jr., approached Costa again. Their discussion on Dias' lectures led Costa to arrange a lecture tonight at 7:30 at Swartouth Recital Hall in Murphy Hall. The talk is free and open to the public.
Costa generally is not involved in finding lecturers for this series but said he approached department faculty after his discussion with Dias.
PIANIST LECTURE
Dias will lecture on the late Brazilian pianist Cuiomar Novaes as part of the KU Visiting Artists Series sponsored by the University's department of music and dance.
Given by: Brazilian pianist, Ciro Gonzales Dias Jr.
When: 7:30 tonight
Where: Swarthout Recital Hall in Murphy Hall
Cost: Free
Cost: Free
Dias said Novaes, who died in 1979, was one of the best pianists this century. Dias first heard Novaes play when Dias was 12 years old.
"I was impressed with her piano skills because she had a strong expressiveness," Dias said. "She was extraordinary."
In his lecture, Dias said he would discuss the importance Novaes had in the golden age of piano using rare documents, photos and autographs.
Dias said Novaea was a noteworthy pianist because of her adherence to composers' ideas and her dedication to the piano.
"She always played with the same interest as if it were the first time she was playing," he said.
Dias has presented his lecture on Novaes to schools such as the Juliard School in New York, State University of New York at Stonybrook and the University of Miami
He said he wanted to present his lecture everywhere he could in the United States because of the success Novaas had here. Novaas played in Kansas City and Lawrence
Costa said Dias' lecture would be helpful to piano students because of the way Novaas interpreted music.
"She had a style of her own," Costa said. "The way that she played can give some light to a young student."
Costa said that although the lecture was on a pianist, it would be interesting to students in other majors.
"It's very important, because all forms of art are related," he said.
"A music student who just plays an instrument and does nothing else is bound not to be complete."

Teleconference helps students master business
By Carolyn Mollett
Students who are interested in pursuing a master's degree in business will have the chance today to learn more about that opportunity.
Kansan staff writer
John Holleman, director of the MBA program at the University of Mississippi, will facilitate a nation-wide workshop by teleconference at 2 p.m. for all students interested.
"It's almost like a virtual meeting room," Holleman said.
Holleman said he had received phone calls from interested students and universities from across the country, but he said he was unsure how many people
would participate. The phone system used for the conference will handle up to 150 participants at one time.
He said the workshop would not use video equipment, because most students could not gain access. Students can participate in the workshop by calling in from their homes.
TELECONFERENCE
To participate in the nationwide workshop by teleconference, dial 1-904-357-8702 from any telephone.
For more information on the MBA program at the University of Kansas, call 864-7596 or visit the school of business Web site at www.bschool.ukans.edu.
There is no charge for participation other than the normal long-distance fee.
College of the Liberal Arts and Sciences graduates are excellent candidates for MBA programs, because they acquire critical thinking skills and a wide breadth of knowledge through their undergraduate educations. Holleman said.
He said future employers would recognize the diverse educational background of liberal arts students.
Dave Collins, assistant director of the master's degree program at the School of Business, said he agreed with Holleman. Collins also said businesses were willing to pay for educational diversity. He said an MBA with any undergraduate major gave students the flexibility to work in areas related to their undergraduate degrees but also be involved with management.
The University has launched an initiative to visit campus groups such as Greek and academic organizations to encourage students to apply to the MBA program, Collins said. He said he would like to speak with any organizations interested in the presentation.
To enter the University MBA program, students must take the Graduate Management Admissions Test and apply to the two-year, 60-hour program.

Reported rape cases increase according to Kansas report
By Chad Bottes
Kansan staff writer
As part of her Domestic Violence Awareness month efforts, Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall has released a report on domestic violence and rape in the state.
The report released shows mixed results in the deterrence of certain violent crimes, with the number of reported rapes increasing and the number of domestic violence reports decreasing during the three year period of 1995 to 1997.
Tiffany Ball, public information officer for Stovall, said 1,088 cases of rape were reported across Kansas in 1995. In 1997, that number increased to 1,192.
Sgt. Troy Maillon of the KU Public Safety Office said seven of those cases were on campus in 1997, compared to four in 1995.
Ball attributed the increase in rape cases to the fact that more victims were taking the initiative to report the crime.

"We are better educating victims about what to do after a despicable tragedy has happened to them," Ball said.
In a written statement, the attorney gen
Domestic violence cases have dropped from 20,183 in 1995 to 19,159 in 1997, Ball said. In a written statement, the attorney general said the decline in domestic violence reports was because of better response and increased sensitivity of law enforcement officials to reports.
"I attribute much of these declines to the response by law enforcement to the crime I call undomesticated violence." Stovall said.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said the numbers of reported cases could be deceiving.
"It does not necessarily mean that domestic violence is less of a problem or rape is more of a problem." Rose-Mockry said.
She said her office was working toward a significant reduction in the number domestic violence and rape cases by educating people in different ways. Examining the images of women in the media, conducting workshops to increase sexual assault awareness, and teaching people to speak out against rape stereotypes are several methods she uses.
Stovall said that in 25 percent of reported rape cases in Kansas, the rape offender was under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Rose-Mockry cited a Columbia University study that said 75 percent of rape cases involve either the victim or the offender using drugs or alcohol.

Sure, the experts say, Kansas has a great perimeter game.
All-American candidate Lynn Pride leads several explosive scorers who can create match-up nightmares for opposing teams on the perimeter.
But the team's weakness is inside where every post player suffers from inconsistency or inexperience.
Sanford is the leader of the Kansas inside game. She's a three-year starter and the University's 10th all-time rebounder. Coach Marian Washington said she was looking for Sanford to prove the doubts wrong.
That, the experts say, is where teams
can beat Kansas.
"It's the truth, so I can't be mad," she said. "That's partly my fault. We can't really go very far without a good inside game, and it's my responsibility to bring that up."
Nakia Sanford, senior center, knows she will be expected to solidify the inside game and does not take the negative evaluations personally.

Former Jayhawks receive long overdue recognition
Female athletes return to claim their sports letters
By Sam Mollinger Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas Athletics Department set the records straight by awarding K letters to 38 former athletes during the Reunion Brunch Saturday at the Adams Alumni Center.
"You could see on their faces, there was a lot of pride," said Dianna Beebe, former fieldockey coach who was at the brunch. "It puts more of a cap on having represented the athletic department."
The letters were presented to women who competed before their respective sports were officially recognized as varsity. Records are not clear as to when each sport's athletes received letters, but no letters were given before 1974. By 1980, all female athletes received letters.
"We felt that there were still women who competed and represented the University of Kansas before letters were given that met the qualifications to letter," said Amy Perko, associate athletics director.
Recipients were: Genell Benjamin, field hockey, softball, volleyball, basketball, 1968-69; Nancy Foster Browne, swimming, 1973-74; Paige Wolf Carney, field hockey, softball, volleyball, basketball, 1968-69; Carla Cochran Stallard, softball, 1976; Margot Cortese, basketball, 1974-75; Robin Gruenduer Coxe, tennis, 1973-75; Liz Phillips Dobbins, golf, gymnastics, 1971-75; Nancy Fankhauser, basketball, 1969-72; Paula Frank, gymnastics, softball, volleyball, 1972-76; Peggy Glynn, softball,篮球, 1972-75; Care Groom, tennis, 1971-72; Pat Madden Grenzda, swimming, 1973-75; Veronica Hammersmith, field hockey, softball, basketball, 1964-69; Virginia Hammersmith, softball, volleyball, 1970-73; Penny Paulsen Jacobi, field hockey, basketball, softball, volleyball,

Pride: Player of the Year candidate.
Pride becomes award candidate
Kansas women's basketball junior Lynn Pride was named one of 10 presen- candidates for the 1988-99 Maismith College Basketball Player of the Year.
The announcement came yesterday from Jackie Braidford, executive director of the Atlanta Tioff Club.
Pride Ld the Jayhawks in points (14.9)
ppg), rebounds (6.7 rpg), and steals (70)
last season.
This summer, Pride won a gold medal with the 1998 USA Women's Basketball Jones Cup team. She averaged 9.0 points, a team high 7.0 rebounds and 2.2 steals per game.
"Lynn Pride is one of the elite players in the country," said coach Marian Washington. "At her size, her quickness and her ability to handle the basketball, she is just simply one of the best."
The candidates were selected by the
Naismith Awards National Advisory Board, which is made up of leaping basketball coaches, journalists and administrators.
Other candidates include Chamique Holdswclaw, Semeka Randall and Tamika Catchings, Tennessee; Dominique Canty, Alabama; Amanda Wilson, Louisiana Tech; Tamika Whitmore, Memphis; Mery Andrade, Old Dominion; DeMya Walker, Virginia; and Steehlan White, Purdue.

Commentary
Basketball lockout hurts NBA players
Disappointing was the word that came to mind when the NBA canceled 99 preseason and regular season games.
It raised an interesting question. Will the NBA suffer the same fate as Major League Baseball?
My thoughts: no way.
Professional basketball games are more exciting to watch, and NBA players have personalities fans love. Furthermore, every team has at least one outstanding player worth watching.
But NBA players are hurting themselves.
While they argue about the right not to be tested for marijuana and for profit sharing, players like Patrick Ewing, who, because of his age, only has a couple seasons left, are letting a chance to win a championship with Michael Jordan out of the league slip away.
Unfortunately, any team that wins the championship this season would have a big asterisk by its title, because it did not complete a whole season.
The rest of the superstars are making at least $5 million a year, and if you're Michael Jordan, $35 million.
That doesn't include the endorsement deals athletes receive.
What bothers me most is that the players believe they deserve a cut of the owners' profits.
The last time I checked, the minimum salary for an NBA player was about $250,000. And if you're getting paid the league minimum, chances are you're not playing much.
The players need to remember basketball has made them rich. It would be foolish to forget that.
I understand the players' point of view, however. The owners invest hundreds of millions of dollars each year into their respective teams, and it wouldn't be fair to take their profits away.
The owners built the NBA and have put large amounts of money
into the pockets of athletes playing a game they claim to love.
If they really loved it, the NBA wouldn't be in the middle of a lockout.
The balance of power in the sports world is out of whack.
Tony Pacheco
It appears as if
It appears as if the players run the league.
They choke coaches, sit out if they're not happy, spit on fans and speak badly about the organization they play for until they're traded.
The coaches can't coach, and the owners can no longer manage for fear of offending prima donna athletes.
The owners need to refuse the profit sharing request. If they give in now, where will it end?

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Your Scorpion side comes out this year, helping you be more decisive. You also will be good at planning, so get an early start. Figure out what you want to make happen before much longer, so you can start collecting the money you need. An unusual situation at home could cause you to reach out to a friend. Money comes from an old source, and an old route is the best way to reach your dreams.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
A loved one wants to spend all your money, and that is OK with you. Figure out how, then look at when. You already know why, although your reasons may not be that solid. You will never get where you want by budgeting. You will have to find more sources of income. Make this expenditure an investment rather than a waste.
You have been working to solidify a partnership agreement. During the next couple of days, you will learn amazing new things about each other, and what you can produce together. There are definitely areas where you do not agree, and many of those will come up today. See them not as barriers but as stimuli for learning.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Todav is a 6.
You are more interested in flirting than sticking to business. Unfortunately, there is business to be done. Do not hang out at the water cooler too long, or a snatch is likely to tell the boss. Do what you can to make the snatch's life easier.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You should probably stay home in bed today and for the rest of the week. Can you get time off? You could call in sick, but only if you really are. You do not want to be sneaky. You just want time for your loved ones. If all else fails, plan something for this evening.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Your induction is to stick close to home for the next month or so. You are learning how to do things that involve home and family. Because you are a leo, those things probably include projects around the house. Take advantage of the situation. Hit the books! This week, make it work for you.
Virao [Aug. 23-Sept. 22]: Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 2, 2022) is a G.
You are in the mood to learn. You are able to focus your attention, and your memory is awesome. This condition is going to be in effect for the next several weeks. What would you do if you could learn anything you wanted? How can you make this really profitable? Do the planning now.
LBUR (Sept. 29 - Oct. 2) Today's theme:
Your focus will shift toward financial matters. You do not usually care about that. You care about art, dance, music and all that stuff. It does not hurt to have a roof over your head, so learning about money could help. You would be an even better artist. Look at it and make the most of the coming phase.
Scarpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
You are coming into your own, but tie up loose ends first.
Some of these might have to do with communication. Some-one in your life is laboring under a misconception. You need to clear things up. This will not get easier, and you do not need it dragging you down. You need to get on to other things.
Saaittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Conter with a couple of your friends, and figure out what you are going to do during the coming phase.
You can accomplish a lot if you work together. Do not try to do everything by yourself. You need assistance, so line it up today. Do not worry. This is going to be fun.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You will be coming up against a barrier and, chances are,
it is the very thing you do not want to face. It is the person
you do not want to be around, the question you do not
want asked. If you are prepared, you do not have a thing to
worry about.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-1sn. 19): Today is a 5.
This is a day for parties and meetings and social encounters, possibly associated with business. Business and friendship are linked for you right now in a positive way. So let a business associate steer you on a date, or let a date suggest a new business opportunity. Either one of those should play out well.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
---
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
You would like to acquire more wisdom by traveling, taking classes in philosophy and having religious experiences. All are possible, but some might require a little money. That is your assignment for now and the first part of this week. First, figure out what you are going to do with the money. Then figure out where to get it.

Tyson receives license to compete in Nevada
— Kansan staff reports
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson got his boxing license back yesterday, 15 months after he lost it for biting Evan Holfoy's ear during a title fight.
Tyson told the Nevada Athletic Commission that he had suffered long enough and needed to box to make a living.
Chairman Elias Ghanem said the fighter had made many mistakes but deserved another chance. The commission voted 4-1 to restore the license.
"I'm just happy I won," Tyson said.
"I'm undecided when I'll fight again."

Show and Rodeo and a Houston group that has been wooing the NFL.
That deal resolves all issues on how a new football stadium for the NFL and the rodeo will be financed, KRIV reported.

Players to get no pay during NBA lockout
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — In a big victory for NBA owners, an arbitrator yesterday rejected the union's grievance that 226 players with guaranteed contracts should be paid during the lockout.
The decision by John Feerick came on the 111th day of the labor dispute, which has caused the league to cancel the first two weeks of the regular season.
With negotiations stalled and the sides far apart on the main economic issues, the ruling clearly strengthened the owners' bargaining position by removing the prospect of their being forced to pay more than $700 million in salaries to the players they have barred from work.
"We are pleased with the arbitrator's ruling," said Jeffrey Mishkin, NBA chief legal officer. "Unfortunately, it does not get us any closer to a deal with the union's leadership. Only negotiations will end our current impasse and lead to a settlement of our dispute."
The union claimed that the absence of lockout language in the standard player contract meant the owners were liable for guaranteed salaries.
The owners argued that the right to withhold pay by imposing a lockout was a tenet of labor law.
Union officials did not immediately comment.

Injury woes keep slowing Kansas men
Although they are only two practices into the season, injuries continue to plague the Kansas men's basketball team.
Players who had not been playing returned to practice, while one who had been practicing did not.
Junior Ashante Johnson returned to practice after
injuring his right knee during Friday night's Late Night scrimmage
During the intrasquad scrimmage, Johnson tried to block a shot by Jelani Janisse and banged his knee. He was not able to complete the scrimmage or participate in the weekend's practices.
He went through limited practice yesterday with his knee heavily wrapped.
On Saturday, junior Lester Earl returned to the court after sitting out Friday night's activities because of an injured knee. He continued to practice lightly yesterday.
Missing practice were senior T.J. Pugh and freshman Marlon London.
Pugh reinjured his left ankle on Wednesday and has been unable to practice since.
London is suffering from a degenerative disk and did not practice yesterday. He had practiced Saturday. His condition is considered day-to-day.

Sportswomen of the Year named
Foundation honors basketball standout Olympic figure skater
Associated Press
NEW YORK — Cynthia Cooper is eyeing a third WNBA title next summer. Michelle Kwan is dreaming of an Olympic gold medal in 2002.
Both those goals will take time. But yesterday, the basketball player and the figure skater were honored as Sportswomen of the Year by the Women's Sports Foundation.
Cooper, the two-time league MVP
for the Houston Comets, was chosen in the team category. Kwan, the silver medalist
AMERICAN COMETS
at the Nagano Olympics, was chosen in the individual category.
Known for her "raise the roof" gesture, Cooper scored 23 points to lead Houston to its second consecutive WNBA title against Phoenix last month. She also earned her second scoring title, averaging 22.7 points a game.
After a 13-year professional bas
ketball career in Spain and Italy and dominating the WNBA, Cooper is looking to the future.
"I'd like to be a general manager, maybe the next president of the WNBA, maybe a broadcaster," the 35-year-old guard said. "Maybe a three-peat. Hey, Michael Jordan won six championships, I want to be like Mike."
In July, Cooper became the first WNBA player to reach 1,000 career points. The Comets won 15 straight games, led the WNBA in scoring and defense and finished the regular season with 27 wins and only three losses.
After winning NCAA titles at Southern California in 1983-84 and an Olympic gold medal in 1988, Cooper headed to Europe because there was no U.S. women's pro league then.
Two years ago, Cooper's mother was diagnosed with breast cancer, and Cooper is grateful to be near her while she's going through chemotherapy treatments.
"I ifreg anything in my career, I regret spending 11 years overseas away from my mom," she said. "It's good knowing we're taking away some of her pain and her concern for her fight against breast cancer by the success we're having in the WNBA."
Kwan had a strong performance at the Nagano Olympics, but the
gold medal went to U.S. teammate Tara Lipinski, who has since turned pro. That has Kwan looking toward Salt Lake City.
"One of my dreams is to go to the Olympics in 2002," Kwan said. "It's in the States, and my whole family will probably come. I'm just hoping that everything will go right, and I'll be ready for that competition."
Kwan won her second world championship in March, one of five titles she took this year. She added
another U.S. title and received 15 perfect marks in her show
Olympic Games
and long programs, the most by any skater.
OLYMPIC GAMES
A gold medalist at the Goodwill Games in July, Kwan went to Hawaii for two weeks for her first vacation since lacing up her skates at age 5. Before that, except for an injury that kept her off the ice for three weeks last year, she'd only been away from skating for three days.
Kwan, who received a travel and training grant from the Women's Sports Foundation when she was 12, graduated from high school this summer with a 3.6 grade-point average.
"I did it, even though I had to lug my books around the world," she said.

Youthful GM keeps Yankees going
Associated Press
Brian Cashman is the wonder boy of the New York Yankees' record-setting season.
The baby-faced general manager hugs former Yankee Craig Nettles during crucial moments of the World Series and waves to the TV cameras.
Somehow, the 31-year-old Cash man makes working for George Steinbrenner look fun.
"My stamp on this team would be that I stayed the hell out of the way and didn't mess with a good thing," Cashman said.
Brilliant.
Cashman, a college baseball player at Division III Catholic University, caught Steinbrenner's eye with hard work and dedication during his days

manager in February. At 30, he became the second-youngest GM in major league history.
His youthful enthusiasm can be an asset and a hindrance. But Cashman said other GMs gave him respect when he landed the job.
Cashman was promoted to full-time baseball operations assistant and then to assistant GM before replacing Bob Watson as general
"The success we've had, the perfect game, the great relation-
"I don't know what the opinion of me, is to be honest," Cashman said. "But I feel like I've been given a fair shake by the people in baseball, whether it's the media, the other clubs, the players. Bottom line is, you be yourself and hope that's enough." Cashman earned Steinbrenner's praise.
Starting in 1989, he worked basically as a gofer by day and a security guard by night for the minor league department. Eventually, he became MG with a unique, one-year
Cashman earned Steinbrenner's praise.
"At the time, I wasn't sure whether he was going to want me after one more year or whether I was going to want it after one more year," Cashman said. "And also, the fans were important. I don't think the fans knew who Brian Cashman was. I figured I'd give it a year, and if it didn't work out, then I could quietly fade away and nobody would ever hear of me again."
Cashman cheered and hugged Nettles and other scouts when Chuck Knoblauch and Tino Martinez homed in a seven-run inning that sent the Yanks to a 9-6 victory in Game 1 of the Series.

TLIJUAN, Mexico — For San Diegans who like to gamble, smoke in bars or buy beer at 18, the perfect place to watch the World Series is just 20 piles away.
For Tijuana residents, who hold baseball second only to soccer as their favorite pastime, the Padres' climb to the Series is just as much their accomplishment as San Diego's.

Robles watched Game 2 of the World Series Sunday at a bar on the city's main nightclub strip, as did Ernesto Hernandez, who went to 30 Padres home games this season.
Smoking in bars is banned in California. Some Americans were there to take advantage of Mexico's legal drinking age of 18. Alex Mendoza crossed the border with a friend and a cousin to enjoy the game.

Americans can park their cars on the U.S. side of the border or take the San Diego Trolley to the international line, then make a short walk to betting parlors along the town's main streets.
But most American sports fans travel to Tijuana to gamble. There are about 10 betting shops where wagers are taken on everything from the NBA to the Kentucky Derby to college football.
Just past the taxi station and tables of souvenir trinkets is an open-air parlor, where bettors sit and root for teams on several 20-inch, awningcovered televisions.

Individual schools make advising hard
(USPS 650-640)
Students have several options when counselling time arrives
By Melody Ard Kansan staff writer
For freshmen and sophomores stuck somewhere between the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and a specialized school at the University of Kansas, advising can be a confusing experience.
Double advising, or co-advising between the University advising centers and the professional school advisors, is a solution for students caught in the middle
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshman Sophomore Advising Center, said students who were classified as pre-professional had the choice of being advised by their professional school, by the general advising center or by both centers.
Pre-professional students are those who are considering majors in schools, such as business or education, that accept students as juniors rather than as freshmen.
"The process is not new, and students shouldn't feel confused by it," she said.
"For students considering pre-professional schools, it is an excellent choice for them to do both because they will have different prerequisites."
ADVISING
Tuttle said pre-professional students were not required to be co-advised, but she recommended that as a way to ease the transition.
Pre-Professional Advising
Freshmen may go to:
■ Their professional
school
The Freshman.
"It gives students two sources of information," she said. "We offer people who they can see and talk about things with throughout the year."

college, handles most sophomore advising. She said she encouraged students to make faculty contacts. "It's important that students meet with faculty members, even if they are undecided, because they can help students explore their options," Houston said.
Houston said students were divided into three groups depending on how close they were to deciding a major: those who knew what they wanted to do, those who did not and pre-professional students.
Houston said the University encouraged freshmen to be undecided their first year and fine tune their interests as sophomores.
"We want freshmen to be as open as they can be and work with the faculty member," she said. "Sophomores can concentrate more on making decisions about their majors."
"I think they are taking the responsible approach to student advising. They could try and help everyone, but their services wouldn't be as good. I appreciate the thoughtful way they are not rushing into it."
KU bus driver cited for collision
Lawrence police cited a KU on Wheels bus driver for failing to yield the right of way after he hit a car yesterday afternoon in Lawrence.
The accident, which occurred about 4:15 p.m. at the intersection of Ninth and Indiana streets, took place when the bus — turning south from Ninth Street to Indiana Street — hit and damaged the front-right side of a black 1992 Acura. The Acura was traveling east on Ninth Street when they collided, police said.
101
Chris Ogle, director of the Lawrence Bus Company, said that there were two passengers on the bus.
No one was injured.
He said that they were taken to campus after the accident.
"It's not that big of a deal, especially with the amount of miles that we drive," Ogle said. "It was just a minor altercation."

Intellectual property up for change
SenEx to review Regents proposal
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas Senate Executive members will discuss incentives and possible changes to a proposed Kansas Board of Regents intellectual property policy tomorrow during its monthly meeting.
The proposal — if adopted by the Regents — would give University faculty and students more reasons to develop intellectual properties including student academic creations, copyrightable software and mediated courseware.
Provost David Shulenburger said the extended policy was needed to replace vague federal laws.
"Federal law can be interpreted to say that if a person is employed at a university, all the work they do belongs to that person." Shulenburger said. "It also can be interpreted as all work belongs to the institution."
"Not having a broader policy in place has probably stopped some people from developing certain works," he said. "The new policy would provide some incentives."
The Regents will act on the policy at its November meeting after university groups like SenEx get a chance to review the proposal.
The policy states ownership of student academic creations, including inventions and publications, would belong to the student. But Shulenburger said if a student created a work as an employee of the University, the ownership would stay with the University.
Joel Pile, Fort Hays State University senate president, said the policy would allow students to come up with an invention based on what they learned in class.
"If a student were taught something in class, she could go back home and use that knowledge to invent something practical and then sell it." Pile said.
Pile said the Student Advisory Council, which includes student senate members from the six Regents universities, developed the proposal to protect student interests.
The proposal also states that mediated courseware — works created by professors to be used in a class — are to be owned by the faculty member as long that faculty member does not create a completely new course.
But if a faculty member did create a new course of study, they could sell the
"Federal law can be interpreted to say that if a person is employed at a university, all the work they do belongs to that person. It also can be interpreted as all work belongs to the institution."

Provost
rights to other institutions with the consent of the Provost, Shulenburger said.
"For example if the dean of CLAS asked some faculty members to design an online Math 002 course, KU would own it," he said. "But they may be able to sell it to other universities."
The proposed policy also states that:
The proposed policy also states that:
■ All articles, novels, non-fiction works, artistic works and other printed materials would belong to the creators, and they would keep any revenue derived from their work.
People who develop copyrightable software will retain ownership rights and up to a projected market value of $10,000.

Online catalog to make libraries searches easy
By Chad Bottes
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Libraries are spending $1 million in an effort to modernize the online catalog by next May at 12 locations in Lawrence, Kansas City and Wichita.
The new online catalog, called Voyager, would replace the current computerized system, which was implemented 15 years ago, said Rob Melton, library publications coordinator.
Voyager not only will be an online card catalog, but an entire library system as well.
"It will be the keystone of our KU Interactive Library Systems," Melton said.
Students will notice several changes in the online system. Voyager includes a modern, Windows-type interface, keyword search capability and multiple search term capability.
ONLINE CATALOGS
Students can limit their searches by date, language and location. They also may limit searches to journals or reserve materials.
The library staffs will receive additional benefits because Voyager will streamline some behind-the-scenes library operations.
What: New online catalog for University libraries
Where: All University library locations, including general, law and medical libraries
John Miller, assistant dean of libraries, said a big benefit of Voyager was the electronic compatibility it would allow the University to have
When: Should be operational by the end of the 1998-99 academic year; project has been in the works for three years
Why: Moderize interface and search capabilities; streamline library operations; expand availability of data from libraries nationwide
Doug Bates, chairman of access services at KState, said he was pleased with the system and the response it received at his university.
"It's been a good experience and product. It's a powerful public catalog." Bates said.
Kansas State University was one of the first colleges to purchase Voyager. It started using the system in January 1996.
with other research library systems. This may even extend to the Library of Congress, which recently signed a contract for the same software.
He said the only problems K-State had with the system were related to testing they agreed to do for new versions of the software. He
described the system as otherwise very stable.
Voyager tentatively was scheduled to be installed here by the end of this academic year, but Miller said the transition was complex. New computer hardware must be purchased, and library data must be converted for the new software. Infrastructure improvements such as new wiring already have been completed.
Miller said that when Voyager is being installed, students' convenience will be a priority. One option is for both the old and new systems to run concurrently until students are comfortable with the switch.
This is the second time the University has contracted to update the online system. In Summer 1996, the University signed with another company to provide a new system. In March 1998, the University broke the contract because the company was not fulfilling it in a timely manner.
Voyager, which is sold by Endeavor Information Systems of Des Plaines, Ill., was brought back into consideration because it had been the University's second choice. After a review of Endeavor's proposal, the University signed a contract with the company.
After installation, Endeavor will provide ongoing maintenance and support of the software for an annual fee. The first year cost will be $84,000.

The program is the first all-residence hall diversity fair, Brenda Chung, senior resident assistant of diversity at McCollum.
The diversity committee is a new program that was started this semester to educate residents about diversity issues. The committee has members from four of the residence halls.
Chung said the purpose of the fair was to educate students about resources on campus.
Kansan staff report
Police investigate rape incident at residence hall
KU police are investigating a possible rape case that occurred in a residence hall after Late Night basketball festivities Friday.
The case is still in its early stages, but is classified as a rape, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office. Mailen did not release the name of the residence hall.
Police know the students involved in the case, but Mailen said he was unsure how much contact police have had with the students.
The victim and the man accused of the crime knew each other casually. Both lived in the residence hall where the incident took place and they knew each other just in passing, Mailen said.
Mailen said the investigation was ongoing, and he was unsure whether the victim would ultimately file charges in the case.
He expected a more detailed report to be available today.
Man arrested after chase taken to mental center
A KU police officer had to follow a Lawrence man on Monday from 11th and Mississippi streets to North Lawrence.
The chase began at 11:28 a.m.
and lasted about 16 minutes at a
low speed, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of
the KU Public Safety Office.
The driver, a Lawrence man, was arrested for interference with police duties, eluding a police officer, driving with a suspended license and having no proof of insurance.
Because of his mental condition, Mailen said, the man voluntarily committed himself to Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, 326 Missouri St.
Mailmen said the arrangement was made in place of taking the man to jail in order for the man to receive the treatment he needed.
This was the second incident since the weekend of the man interfering with police duty, Mailen said. A police report said the man was suspected of using alcohol before the incident.

LAWRENCE
Man arrested downtown after police discover drugs
A 24-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Monday night after police caught him with substances believed to be hallucinogenic mushrooms and marijuana.
The man was arrested about 9:30 p.m. in the 700 block of Massachusetts Street by a Lawrence police officer responding to a report that the man was disturbing the peace.
When the officer checked the man's police record, he uncovered a municipal warrant and arrested the man, who resisted.
The officer then searched the suspect and found the mushrooms in his backpack, and the marijuana was found sewn into his pants, Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said.
Police confiscated 6.2 ounces of individually-packaged mushrooms and three grams of marijuana.
The man was then placed into the Douglas County Jail on charges of possession of hallucinogenic mushrooms, possession of mushrooms with intent to sell, resisting arrest, having no tax stamp, possession of marijuana and for having an outstanding municipal warrant. Lawrence police said.
His first court appearance was 3 p.m. yesterday.
Couple's dispute ends after man hit by pool cue
Two Lawrence women reported being threatened by a man with a knife Sunday night during a dispute in the 1600 block of Haskell Avenue.
The dispute began about 10 p.m. between the 18-year-old man and his 18-year-old girlfriend in her home, Lawrence police said. The two were arguing when the woman's mother, 40, got involved.
The man then went to his car and got a knife and started pounding on one of the home's windows, police said.
The pounding broke the window, and the man reentered the home.
"Then the fight commenced," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "Mama busted him on the head with a pool cue."
Police arrested the man on charges of aggravated assault and aggravated battery. Police said that it appeared the man was living in the home at the time of the dispute.
None of the participants needed medical treatment.
"But I think they were all scuffed up somewhat," Wheeler said.
One man injured, another arrested after car wreck
One man was hospitalized and another man arrested following a one-car accident Monday on Oak Hill Avenue.
Lawrence police said that at about 10:30 p.m. a 24-year-old Lawrence resident, lost control of his car while driving north-west on Oak Hill Avenue.
The car went off the road and overturned about 203 feet south of the Prairie Avenue intersection.
The man was taken to the University of Kansas Medical Center. Med Center staff said yesterday that he remained in fair condition.
The man received injuries to his legs and head and was unconscious immediately following the accident, police said. He later regained consciousness at the Med Center.
Police said alcohol was present in the vehicle and contributed to the accident.
A second man, a 26-year-old Lawrence resident, was arrested at the scene for obstruction of the legal process.
The man told police that he wanted to stay and help, and police told him that if he did not go away he would be arrested.
"He didn't go away, and one of the witnesses saw him remove a beer bottle from the area," Wheeler said . "Then we arrested him."
By Keith Burner
Police did not know if the two men were acquaintances.
Police said that the man threw the bottle from the scene, but that they recovered it and will use it as evidence

Teaching center's permanent home opens at Budig to assist faculty
The Center for Teaching Excellence opened in its permanent location yesterday morning.
About 50 faculty were present for the ribbon-cutting ceremony at the new center, 135 Budig Hall.
"It's a visible symbol of our support of faculty in their teaching," said Sandra Gautt, assistant provost.
He said the center would give facility ideas for teaching and help develop individual strategies to improve instruction.
She said the center was part of the University's continuing efforts to increase visibility for teaching.
Fred Rodriguez, center director, said, "The center was designed to support and encourage excellence in the classroom."
One method to improve teaching is video taping classrooms, Rodriguez said. He said instructors could request to be taped while teaching and then learn how to improve their style in a conference.
The center opened a year ago in a temporary location at Anschutz Science Library.
Rodriguez said anyone on campus with an instructional role was welcome at the center. That includes teaching assistants, graduate teaching assistants and professors.
"This is really the only place on campus that really is for faculty and staff," Rodriguez said.
The center offers a training room, resource library space,a conference room,two faculty work stations and an informal area for faculty gatherings.

- "One kid committed the cardinal sin of hurting his knee," Bissinger said. "People actually had the gall to call him a 'nigger.' He was discarded after his athletic powers were gone."
One University of Kansas student said he related to the small-town atmosphere of high school sports.
Kyle Gorges, Andale senior, said his high school football team also had a strong winning tradition.
Gorges, who played for the Andale High School football team, said when the team won
a game, it was for the community.
In contrast, Bissinger said "A Prayer For the City" dealt with the struggles to revive urban Philadelphia.
For five-and-a-half years, Bissinger said he followed the life of Mayor Edward Rendell in order to write the book.
"I wanted to be there for all the screaming and the tumult." Bissinger said. "I wanted to draw a human portrait of Rendell. Much to my shock, he said, 'Why not?'
Bissinger said he discovered crumbling buildings and rotting factories for miles in Philadelphia.

Bissinger said that in the past four years, the population of the city has dropped by 700.000.
"I felt intense sorrow for what was once
Lara Ratican, St. Louis senior, said she could relate to Bissinger's view of America's big cities.
"When I drive through downtown St. Louis, I can see the neglect on the streets," she said.
Bissinger said the most important tool writers could have, whether they were in Odessa, Texas or Philadelphia, was passion.
"When the words finally pour out of you like a waterfall, there's no better feeling," he said. "It's sometimes it better than sex."
City Commission approves new roundabout
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
The intersection at Monterey Way and Harvard Road soon may look more like the roundabout at the Chi Omega Fountain on campus.
The Lawrence City Commission voted 3-2 last night to accept a plan to improve Monterey Way from 15th Street to Harvard Road.
One of the planned improvements is the installation of a traffic calming device, called a roundabout, at Monterey Way and Harvard Road. The roundabout would function like the Chi Omega circular intersection.
Katherin Steinbacker of E.B.H. and Associates, who designed the improvement plan, said the middle of the roundabout should be occupied by a large tree or a statue and not a fountain.
Steinbacker said the roundabout would improve traffic flow, which now is halted by a three-way stop sign at the intersection.
Commissioners Bob Moody and Bonnie Augustine wanted input from the Traffic Safety Commission on the plan before proceeding.
"I wonder why we don't see more of these in the Midwest," Augustine said.
Moody's motion to refer the
plan to the Traffic Safety Commission failed 2-3.
Steinbacker said the Kansas Department of Transportation strongly supported the installation of a roundabout at Monterey Wav and Harvard Road.
Commissioner John Nalbandian said, "This holds a new possibility for the city. If they can do more for us than the unwarranted stop signs, then I think we should do it. I think this is great."

Student Senate meeting to gather at Ellsworth Hall
Student Senate is on tour, and tomorrow it hits Ellsworth Hall.

Senate will meet at 6 tonight, but not in its usual home in the Kansas Union. The lobby of Ellsworth Hall will be this week's meeting
place for Senate in an effort to gain more student awareness and possibly more student involvement.

SENATE
Julie Numerich, student executive committee chair, worked to get the meeting at its new location.
"We're having this meeting outside the Union for a lot of reasons," she said. "We're especially happy to have it in a residence hall. There is a large majority of freshmen in the residence halls. Since elections happen in April, many of them have no idea what Student Senate is all about."
Numerich said the beginning of the meeting would be a chance for students to meet their senators.
"They can come and talk to us," she said.
"It'll be kind of like a town meeting."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said raising campus awareness was a platform on which he campaigned last year.
"A common criticism Senate gets is that the only time they talk to students is when election time rolls around," he said. "This is not only a way to give students the feel for the flavor of senate, but to hopefully get more students involved."
Numerich said to her knowledge, this would be the first time Senate had met away from its regular meeting place.
"If this proves to be successful, we'll do it more," she said. "We might try to have meetings at a scholarship hall, maybe a sorority or a fraternity, maybe at the Burge Union."
This senate meeting potentially will be a quiet one, with only two pieces of legislation.
"You always hope that a meeting will be quick and painless," she said. "I don't want to jinx us and say it will be an easy meeting, because if we're in there until 2 a.m. that would look pretty bad."
Tonight's meeting opens at 6 p.m. with a chance to meet the people involved, then the actual meeting begins at 6:30.
The meeting is open to everyone.

Delayed financial aid causes unfair burdens on students
The University has new consequences for students who do not pay tuition on time. The change will monetarily punish students receiving financial aid who, under the old rules, were unduly punished with an inconvenience.
Previously, the first time a student tuition payment was missed that student's schedule was dropped, forcing him or her to re-enroll. The rule change mandates that students pay a $25 to $100 fine, which is tacked onto tuition, instead of having their enrollment dropped.
The real victims are students receiving financial aid. If financial
Students are punished with fines for circumstances beyond their control.
aid checks do not arrive in time to meet the tuition deadline, the students get fined.
These students are the link in this process that has the least control of these circumstances, yet they are the ones hurt the most by it.
Student receiving financial aid may not have the money, and tuition can no longer be paid by credit card. Students are stuck either paying the
fine or borrowing the money
The Office of Student Financial Aid advises students to apply for aid before March 1. The earlier the proper information is received, the easier it is for those sending financial aid checks to get them to the proper destination.
However, the University should ensure that students are not penalized for not receiving financial aid checks. There should be a line of communication between the Office of Financial Aid and the enrollment center to make sure these students that were previously hit in day planner aren't now hit in the wallet.

University needs policy for spouses
Department heads and administrators at the University of Kansas deserve congratulations for maintaining open policies on hiring spouses.
There is an unwritten rule that academics tend to marry each other. Among more than 1,000 faculty members at the University, several married couples exist. Fortunately, as a large research university with thousands of students, a greater need for more professors and instructors exists. Hiring couples to professorships, therefore, is less difficult than at smaller institutions.
Paul and Ruth Ann Achley joined the department of psychology this fall as assistant professors. Both had been involved in post-doctoral research at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign, and they
Larger schools have an advantage in being able to hire professor couples.
were entertaining offers to teach at different universities.
Ruth Ann Aatchley initially was the only one to receive an offer; luckily, both were able to positions at the University. Paul Aatchley said that had that not been the case, they would have been forced to commute about eight hours each weekend to see each other.
Paul Atchley said hiring couples was difficult for most departments to do and usually is rare. He said that a bias exists against couples and that most don't wear their wedding rings to those interviews.
It is fortunate that the University seems to avoid this bias. The University should look to peer institutions and adopt a policy on the matter.
Both Arizona State University and the University of Iowa actually encourage married instructors to apply. Instructors do not need to fear that marital status may play a role in their possible employment.
Such a policy would have to be carefully enforced. If too many married couples were hired, Chancellor Robert Hemenway's plan to increase the number of minority faculty, for instance, could be hindered by a lack of openings.
Most importantly, administrators should continue to prioritize the quality of KU faculty. All other factors are secondary.

African-American players from the team. University of Wyoming was to play Brigham Young University the following day, and the 14 were
planning to protest against the Mormon racial policy that excluded African Americans from the priesthood.
The University of Wyoming president, William Carlson, and the Wyoming governor, Stanley Hathaway, backed Eaton. When seven university faculty members threatened to resign unless the 14 were reinstated, the Touchdown Club in Casper, Wyo., announced that it was raising money to get the seven faculty members out of the state.
The University of Wyoming Student Senate called for a hearing on the issue, and the student body called for an impeachment of the Senate. The student-run newspaper supported the 14 players, and the editor of the paper resigned. Probably not realizing what he was saying, Carlson said at a press conference that football came first and civil rights second. One member of the legislature said if Eaton backed down, the university's budget would be in trouble. The suspensions stood, and 10 of the 14 players would leave the University of Wyoming before graduating.
Near the center of this controversy was a young, not yet 30-year-old, professor of English and American Studies. In 1969, he was just 10 years out of high school and four years out of graduate school where he had written his dissertation on the novels of Charles Brockton Brown. He supported the 14 players and would later dedicate his first book, "The Black Novelist," to them.
Being a university president is an extraordinarily difficult job.
In addition, a university president also has to efficiently administrate an enormous budget and ensure that the budget grows. Most importantly, regardless what the surface similarities may lead one to believe, a university president is not a chief executive officer of a large corporation. A university is a site of education, personal development and research. University presidents provide the moral direction for their institution.
The various constituencies to whom university presidents report — undergraduate students, graduate students, alumni, boosters, staff, faculty, legislatures, media, taxpayers, regents and trustees — always want something, and none of them are easily appeased.
For those who haven't guessed it by now, the young University of Wyoming professor was Robert Hemenway, chancellor of the University of Kansas.
Because I think so highly of Chancellor Hemenay as a person, it is difficult for me to write objectively about him. Notwithstanding his commencement address last spring during which he described the value of a KU education solely in terms of how much more money graduates would earn over their lifetimes, I am sure he still realizes that a university education is much more than just taking classes that prepare one for the job market.
A university education, in the tradition of a liberal arts education, fosters our personal and intellectual development into interesting citizens. In this respect, a university is a moral institution. A university does not accomplish this by telling us what to do in the antiquated tradition of a university in loco parentis but through its classes, campus, activities and faculty. A university provides an environment in which we all can develop.
Consequently, it is up to all of us, not just the chancellor but every member of the university community, to provide an environment where everyone including gays, lesbians, bisexuals, straights, African Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Hispanic Americans and Caucasians can participate in this education.
This does not simply mean that we all should be protected from hate crimes — we already should be protected from violence — but we all should encourage an environment that fosters our development into whomever we are becoming and allows us to be free and autonomous individuals. Perhaps this is the legacy each of us can leave for Matthew Shepard at the University of Kansas.

Free speech justifies running controversial advertisement
I would like to make it clear that the beliefs expressed in this advertisement are not the views of The University Daily Kansan. This is a paid advertisement that expresses the beliefs of CODOH. The issues debated and the sources used in the ad do not reflect the feelings of the Kansan.

I expect the presence of the Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODH) advertisement appearing in today's paper to cause a little unproper. Therefore, I would
The University of Kansas is a campus that allows for open discussion on various issues. The Kansan is a direct reflection of those freedom of speech values. A joint statement was released on Sept. 23, 1998, by Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Provost David Shulenburger. This statement explained why the abortion protest was allowed on campus. "The University of Kansas, as a public university, is a place where the First Amendment must be exercised and the free exchange of ideas allowed. While we regret the pain to some members of the university community that results from that free exchange, the University must maintain its role as a forum for reasonable dialogue."
The Kansan has the right to refuse any ad upon my review. I think that CODOH has a First Amendment right to place an advertisement with us. The First Amendment says that everyone has a right to be heard, no matter what their viewpoint. In this situation, I did not agree with the message, but whether I believe the content of an advertisement does not justify my rejection. If this were the case, there would be many ads that would not run. Unless an advertisement has false information or directly attacks another person or group, there is no reason to reject the advertisement. In this instance, the ad neither directly attacked anyone nor had false information (the sources were double checked).
In addition to content, I look to see if an ad is really advertising a reward, discount, special
Some people may say that my decision was based on money. This statement could not be further from the truth. The cost of this one ad is minimal compared to what we bring in on a daily basis. I thought about rejecting the ad unless the group paid a substantial amount of money and ran it numerous times. Then I thought, when do you put a price on freedom of speech?
I am not a censor. I will not reject an ad just because it causes an uproar. Also, my opinion is that this advertisement is just a radical person trying to spark a debate. Hopefully, this ad will bring about an open forum on campus and allow the exchange of ideas.
I brought this decision up to my managers at a meeting. After several minutes of debate, one manager asked, "What would a major newspaper do?" This comment helped me make my decision. The Kansan thrives because we function like a professional newspaper. The awards that we have won attest that our day-to-day operation is comparable to that of a professional newspaper. Recently, full-page advertisements ran in both USA Today and The Wall Street Journal that gave phone numbers that gay readers could call and a group of religious people would make them "ungay." Neither newspaper supported the advertisement, but the papers chose not to reject the ad. The decision made by these national newspapers helped me to make my decision.
I do not agree with the issues addressed by CODOH. However, I would like to think that if I had a belief that I wanted to advertise, no matter how absurd, that I would be allowed to express my feelings. Hopefully, this advertisement will foster an open forum and get people talking about a subject that they typically might overlook. I support freedom of speech and never would want to be put in a place where I become a censor.
or other incentives. In the CODOH situation, the group is advertising a reward and is asking for information leading to the whereabouts of David Cole, the Jewish writer and director of CODOH's video on Auschwitz. Based upon the reward and freedom of speech, I chose to accept the advertisement.

Latina professors share how to stop stereotypes
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Two Latina professors presented their strategies for empowerment yesterday at the Latinas in Power program.
Christina Arguello, professor of law, and Valerie Mendoza, assistant professor of history, lectured to 10 people yesterday afternoon in the Kansas Union's Alderson Auditorium. The program was part of Hispanic Heritage Month.
Mendoza started by presenting media and cultural stereotypes of Latina women. She said two images were predominant: the illegal immigrant maid and the "luscious Latina" — a highly emotional, over-sexed woman.
"I don't know about you, but I don't know anyone who fits these stereotypes." Mendoza said.
She said that because Latino society was male-dominated, Latina
women were often rendered face less and powerless.
"I want to reinforce to you that this is not what's going on in daily life." Mendoza said.
She said Latina women participated in many behind-the-scenes activities. Mendoza said this sort of "informal activism" was an important part of the community.
Latina women have also traditionally been involved in formal activism, such as the League of United Latin American Citizens. Mendoza said half of the Kansas chapter's founders were women.
Arguello said women didn't always get credit for their work.
She said problems began early in life for Latina women.
"I came from a very stereotypical Hispanic household: my father was the chief, my mother was subservient," she said. "There were many days I went on about how unfair life was because I wasn't
born a man."
She said many students said they faced the same issues.
"You cannot allow peer pressure to get in your way, and on the other side, be supportive of each other," she said.
A second obstacle for Arguello in striving for a career was peer pressure. She said that in high school when she announced her plans to go to Harvard law school, her classmates laughed at her. Despite their doubts, Arguello achieved her goal.
Arguello said once she reached the professional world and was hired by a law firm, the battle continued. She said she fought problems by finding a mentor, which she said is a necessity.
Janell Avila, president of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization, said that Latinas could empower themselves and break down stereotypes by being involved with University organizations.

Sandwiches feed the hungry
Kansan staff writer
By Pallavi Agarwal
KU students yesterday spent time between classes making peanut butter and jelly sandwiches mixed with love, or mitzvah.
The sandwich drive was organized by members of the KU Hillel Foundation.
"In Judaism, one is traditionally supposed to help out the poor and needy. Mitzvah is a good deed that would benefit others," said Dana Blecher, Steinhardt Fellow with the Jewish Campus Service Corps for the KU Hillel Foundation.
Members of the group were stationed in the Kansas Union
from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., working together to make the 300 sandwiches they had planned.
The sandwiches were donated to Penn House, 1035 Pennsylvania St., a voluntary agency that caters to the hungry.
David Radom, St. Joseph,
Mich., senior, said Jewish people often were stereotyped as not connected with charity.
"In Judaism, we have the concept of Tzedakah, or charity, that many people do not know about," he said.
He hoped the event would help to dispel some of the negative stereotypes connected with Jewish people but added that the main purpose was to help the hungry.
An executive board member of Penn House said it did not take long for 300 sandwiches to be consumed by needy people, 95 percent of whom come from low-income families.
"We set the food on the counter. Anyone who comes can take what they need for their family," said Loretta James, chairwoman of the executive board for the agency.
KU Hillet Foundation and the Lawrence Jewish Community Center will be doing volunteer work for a community kitchen, LINK, 221 W. 10th St., from noon to 3 p.m. on Thursday. Interested students should contact Dana Blercher at 842-8011.
Presentation bases focus on education
Mayan leader speaks to students, faculty on improving society
Alberto Esquit, a leader of the Mayan people of Guatemala's movement for political and cultural equality, said outsiders could help Mayans by opening doors for their education.
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Esquit, a Kaqchikel Mayan linguist from Guatemala, addressed a crowd of about 30 students and faculty members at 4 p.m. yesterday at the Walnut Room in the Kansas Union.
Esquit's speech, sponsored by the Center of Latin American Studies, was in Spanish. Ivonne Heinze, a Ph.D candidate in Linguistics at the University, translated Esquit's remarks.
He said improving education for Mayans was central to the achievement of their other goals and praised programs created by Mayan people for Mayan people.
Esquit said the Mayan people had three primary objectives: improving the economic and social position of the Mayan people, targeting increased political participation for Mayan people in Guatemala's government and improving the education of Mayan people.
"The fact that this education is based on Mayan people's needs makes real an exercise of participation, an exercise of power," Heinze translated.
Esquit said to achieve a society that respected all of its cultures it was important to teach Guatemalan Latinos who had been in positions of power.
Andrea Batres-Chacón, Guatemala City, Guatemala, sophomore, said she had learned a lot about the Mayans' struggle since moving to the United States.
"It's ironic that I've only started to pay more attention to what's going on in my own country now that I'm living somewhere else," she said.
Batres-Chacon said it was important that their issues be discussed in the United States to forwarding the Mavans' cause
"We have to raise international awareness for people in my country to understand what's going on there," she said.

Mexican menu spices up downtown

Z-Teca restaurant offers healthy choices
A new Mexican restaurant is looking to spice up the downtown eatery scene.
Z-Teca Fresh Mexican Grill, 742 Massachusetts St., opened its first location in Lawrence last month.
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
Bruce Marano, Lawrence Z-Teca franchise owner, said Z-Teca provided gourmet Mexican food and quick service in a casual environment.
Z-Teca's menu offers burritos, tacos, fajitas, salads, draft beer and margaritas.
Marano said Z-Teca's food was made from scratch and assembled in front of the customer.
Z-Teca does not use fryers, lard or animal fat. All food is either broiled, baked or sauteed. Marano said.
"It's very healthy," he said
Marano said a healthy item on Z-Teca's menu was their naked burrito. It includes all of the regular ingredients of a burrito, except for the tortilla, which is the most fattening item, he said.
Z-Teca offers a choice of beans, sour
cream, cheese and one of five different salsas with their 14 different types of burritos. Customers can add or remove items on request. Marano said.
"We're not competing with Taco Bell and we're not competing with the full-service, sit-down restaurants," he said.
Z-Teca customers can experience the quick service of a fast-food restaurant, but Marano said Mexican tiles and artwork offer a nicer dining-in atmosphere.
"The way I see it, my problems are right here in my four walls," he said.
R. J. Samuels, owner of Dos Hombres restaurant, 815 New Hampshire St., said although there were an abundance of Mexican food establishments in Lawrence, he was not concerned with competition.
Samuels, who opened Dos Hombres in 1980, said keys to his business' success were providing good food, a pleasant atmosphere, good service and new menu items.
Z-Teca is a Denver-based corporation with more than 30 restaurants nationwide, with branches in Dallas and Phoenix, as well as Kansas City and Denver. Marano, who owns four other Z-Teca restaurants in the Kansas City area, said he is hoping to open five more of them by next June.
Mentor program guides freshmen women
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
The Emily Taylor Women's Center wants freshmen women to get connected.
The center is accepting applications for a mentoring program that pairs freshman women with female faculty and staff members, said center director Kathy Rose-Mockry. The program was started last year by former center director, Barbara Ballard.
"It was designed to reach out to freshmen and sophomore women particularly because that's the group of women most likely not to get the support they need and the connections they need to stay at the University." Rose-Mockry said.
So far, she said about 60 participants had signed up for this year. Women begin the program as freshmen and continue to be a part of the program their sophomore year.
She said participants in the program were required to meet at least three times a semester with their respective mentors and attend a
minimum of two workshops. This year, she said the program would be more social so that program participants had the opportunity to meet one another.
Sandra Albrecht, director of women's studies, served as a mentor last year and will continue to do so. She said last year's experience was positive largely because of her mentee. She said she enjoyed the program because of the opportunity to work with the student one-on-one.
"It's sort of a fuler relationship," she said.
She said although she acted at times like a co-mother, she was careful to let her mentee approach her about concerns.
"What's very important to me is that our students always feel very safe, and that we not invade their privacy," she said. "I think it's the job of the mentee to figure out what they want."
Kendra Seaman, Wichita sophomore, said she liked the program because it provided her with an objective adult advice.
"What's very important to me is that our students always feel very safe, and that we not invade their privacy."
Sandra Albrecht Director of women's studies
"It was really nice to have someone to talk to other than teachers or my parents," she said.
Kimberly Grassmeyer, assistant director of student housing, said she wanted to become a mentor because of women in her life who had been supportive of her.
Grassmeyer said although this mentorship didn't pair students with mentors in their academic fields, the program still was beneficial.
"There are still some almost universal questions women face when they're thinking of becoming professional," she said.
Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, director of the Freshman/Sophomore Advising Center, said she had been a freshman at the University of Kansas from a small town, and she understood the difficulties of adjusting.
"I know that being a new student, whatever your gender, is a challenging issue," she said.
She said it was important for women to know they could balance a career and family, and by having women mentors they could see this was possible. She also said she would like to see more mentoring programs develop.
Susan Elkins, assistant director of the organizations and leadership center, said she was working on adding a component to the program that would match Jewish women students with Jewish faculty. She said this would be the first more focused group that would follow the original program's structure.
Freshmen women interested in the program should call 864-3552 or go to the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, 115 Strong Hall.

KU coach to enter volleyball hall of fame
The Kansas athletics department isn't the only organization that admired Ray Behard's success as volleyball coach at Barton County Community College.
Bechard, who is in his inaugural
season at Kansas, will be inducted into the National Junior College Athletic Association Volleyball Hall of Fame on Nov. 22 in Orme, Utah.
Bechard: Compiled 716-60 record at community college.

player being honored next month.
Jerry Hekekia, coach at Eastern Arizona Community College, was in charge of the committee. He said Bechard's accomplishments spoke for themselves.
In 13 seasons at Barton County, Bechard compiled a record of 716-60, including winning 126 consecutive matches at home. Bechard's overall winning percentage of .923 is 20 points higher than the next highest junior college coach.
Bechard led his team to the national tournament in 12 of his 13 years, including 10 Final Four appearances.
In the middle of his first season at Kansas, Bechard has led the Jayhawks to a 13-7 record, improving on a 9-24 season in 1997.
"What a great honor to be recognized by a group of people that I surrounded myself with for 13 years," Bechard said. "I'm just excited that they felt that what I accomplished in my time there was worthy of such a great honor."

Longhorn turns Jayhawk
Luke Axtell plays basketball composes tunes
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
It is almost 700 miles from Austin, Texas, to Lawrence, and the road that Luke Axell took to get here was a long one.
Axtell joined the Kansas bas ketball team this fall after playing one season at Texas, and the differences between the two programs are greater than the differences between the way Axtell dances and the way his teammates dance.
The dancing gap was on display during the traditional team dance Friday at "Late Night with Roy Williams." Team members bumped and ground their way through the dance, until Axtell galloped through the middle of the circle in his cowboy boots.
The differences in the basketball programs was obvious to Axell as soon as conditioning started this fall.
Axtell has already added 10 pounds to his previously lanky 205-pound, 6-foot-9 frame.
"I wasn't used to the conditioning they had up here," he said. "When I came up here, I wasn't out of shape, but now I'm in better shape than I've ever been."
After a stellar high school career at Westlake High School, during which he averaged 21 points a game and was named first team all state, Axtell entered hometown Texas as one of the top prospects in the nation. As a Longhorn, Axtell did not disappoint. He averaged 13.3 points per game and was named Big 12 Rookie of the Week three times.
Although Axtell performed well on the court for Texas coach Tom Penders, the end of the season brought tough circumstances for the freshman. On March 9, two days after the 14-17 team ended, four team members, including Axtell, went to Texas athletics director DeLoss Dodds to discuss complaints concerning how Pender's ran his basketball program. On March 17 Penders suspended Axtell for academic reasons.
Axtell responded by saying he would leave Texas, Eddie Oran. Texas assistant at the time, leaked Axtell's grades to an Austin radio station. A few weeks later, Penders resigned and within the month, Axtell
had transferred to Kansas.
His sister, Brooke, is adding more Texas spice to the Kansas campus and making Axtell's move easier.
“It’s not home, but it’s as good as it’s going to get away from home,” Axtell said. “I’ve lived in Texas all my life, but my sister’s here.”
Before his arrival at Kansas, Axell cut his trademark floppy hair. Axell said he knew Williams was a conservative person and he wouldn't like his long hair style.
Axtell has surprised Williams with more than his short haircut. At last Thursday's media day, Williams said he was shocked with how Axtell performed in the previous day's conditioning tests.
"He surprised all of us in the conditioning tests at how well he did," Williams said. "He fakes us all out for a couple of weeks and performed greatly yesterday."
Because of NCAA transfer rules, Axell must sit out for a year. This year, his only chance to play in front of a crowd was at Allen Field House Friday night, and he took advantage of the opportunity.
Axtell nailed a three-pointer for the first points of the scrimmage and finished the 25-minute scrimmage with eight points. Now, he must watch from the sideline for a year while his teammates play.
Judging from Friday's performance off the court, Axell should not be too bored on the bench. Maybe he can sing to team members during timeouts. An amateur songwriter, Axell displayed his abilities by singing a song he penned and playing the guitar before the scrimmage.
Williams said Axtell's singing was one of the highlights of the evening.
"Either he's not accomplished enough using those mikes or they weren't very good because you couldn't hear it real well," Williams said. "We were so close we could hear it. It was real nice but I wonder if the people up top heard what he was doing. It was nice."

Commentary
Kansas fans need to learn when to yell for Jayhawks
After turning in papers on Mark Twain and Shakespeare and losing the Super Bowl on Madden '99 for Playstation, my brain is everywhere the place this week.
Friday afternoon, hundreds of students gathered in Allen Field House to pick up Kansas basketball ticket vouchers.
The line was long and moved fairly slow because the ticket office put one guy at a table to handle everyone. It was too much for him to handle, and he worked as fast as he could. But had the ticket office added another person to handle the long line, it would have moved faster, students would have been less frustrated and the guy wouldn't have had the stress of dealing with everyone by himself.
Although it was the final day to pick up vouchers and students had all week to get them, the ticket office should have expected the late rush. The office
Spencer Duncan
has been doing this for a long time and knows students wait until the last second. Next time, the office needs to put more people to work. It was a situation that could have been avoided.
Rumor is with the basketball season upon us, the Scream Machine may reappear.
Did you know Mark Twain went broke?
For those who don't remember the Scream Machine, let me refresh your memories. It is a blue trash can decorated with Jayhawk logos. When the lid is taken off, people are supposed to scream. When the lid goes back on, people are supposed to stop screaming.
It flopped last season. The machine was put away before the season ended because of a poor response.
It was a bad idea then and remains one now. Kansas basketball fans know when and when not to cheer.
Shakespeare is from Stratford-on-Avon?
For those who don't want to let go of the Scream Machine then take it to football games. Kansas football fans are struggling with when and when not to cheer.
When the opposing team has the ball on third and fourth downs, fans at Memorial Stadium do two things: get silent or cheer too late.
Noise needs to be made so opposing teams have problems calling plays in the huddle and struggle with the snap count. When fans don't cheer, it helps teams set up plays.
Kansas fans wait until both teams are at the line of scrimmage and the ball is only seconds away from being snapped before cheering.
This is not how to do it
When Kansas has the ball on fourth down, fans should keep the noise down so Kansas can call plays and snap the ball without interference. But fans are cheering extremely loud when Kansas has the ball on fourth down. That doesn't help the Jayhawks.
Fans must cheer before the other team huddles, during the hudle and during the play.
Believe it or not, cheering at the right and wrong times can make a difference in a game.
Just like in real life, Drew Bledsoe blew the big game. He threw three interceptions as San Francisco routed my New England Playstation Patriots, 34-17. I want a refund.
Upset pick of the week: The overrated Buffalooses lose to the wounded Jayhawks, 27-24.
Duncan is an Topeka senior in journalism and English.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 21).
You are more decisive than usual this year, so plan to make big decisions.
Do not let this opportunity go to waste. You are being pushed by someone
love, but that is OK. You are the one who is steering, remember?
Aries (March 21-April 19) - Today is a 6.
A partnership venture is still in your thoughts. You are wondering how the other person will perform, and the feeling is mutual. Do not leave it to chance. Outline what responsibilities each of you will take. If you learn to be structured, you will find you can accomplish much more.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 6.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) - Today is a 6.
You are pushed to do another person's bidding. If this is someone you trust, no problem. If not, make your break quickly. You can tell whether this person is trustworthy by whether you flourish in the relationship. If you are being empowered, you know you are in the right place.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 6.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 6.
It is hard to settle down to business. Schedule a conversation for tonight, but keep mum while the workday is in progress. It is crucial to focus on your job right now, and do it well. somebody's watching, and would like to give you more responsibility. Make it look like you can handle it.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 7.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) - Today is a 7.
You are so much in love lately it is hard to think about any thing else. People may notice you are preoccupied, but that is OK. Anyone who knows you, knows you have a good reason. Conditions encourage intimate conversations, so make sure you set the stage.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 5.
Something around your place is not quite the way you want it. You don't have enough money to buy new, so you have to build it or fix it yourself. This is true with relationship issues as well. Building a new deck may be easier than talking about a problem, but you can learn how to do both.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) - Today is a 7.
You have an incredible ability to assimilate information, and right now you are going into a monster learning phase. Make your lists and start checking out the schools that teach what you want to learn. This is your opportunity to jump up to the next level.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) - Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is a 6.
It is often difficult for you to make a decision. That is because most of life doesn't come in black and white, and you do see lots of shades of gray, and all the other colors, too. Well, the moon in Scorpio makes you more decisive. As more things go into Scorpio, it will get even easier.
**Scorpio** (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) · Today is a o.
You are decisive, forthright and bold, but the best is still to come. There are odds and ends to be rearranged, organized orossed out and an old fear to lay to rest. You have worried long enough. It is time to make the decision. You will be amazed to find that the rest of the world falls into place.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) - Today is a 6.
You may feel like you are in a squeeze play. You can either resist or go along with another person's program. If that program isn't heading you in the right direction, come up with one of your own. One thing is for sure: You won't be able just to pretend nothing is happening.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) - Today is a 5.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) - Today is a 7.
A group you are working with is almost more fun than it ought to be. So what? You are one of the most conscientious people on Earth. You hardly ever let yourself wander off, especially when there is work to be done. Today, make sure all major deadlines have been met, then go play.
2
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) - Today is a 5.
You are still facing tough scrutiny, but you might as well get used to it. If you can get a partner to help, your life will be a lot easier for the next couple of days. You want somebody who is better at public speaking, so you can pass questions on to him or her
男女同室
Conditions are favoring travel, especially travel by water. If you can't actually take a cruise, you could go somewhere near the water. How long has it been since you planned a big fishing trip? It is time to start thinking along those lines. You are pretty right right now, so you might even get your heart's desire.

Brown tackles silver screen
KU football player worked in movies during the summer
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansas sportswriter
Kanson sportswriter
Kansas linebacker Pat Brown was a slave.
Maybe not in the pre-Civil War days, but he was a slave in two movies he acted in this summer.
Brown, who has already received his undergraduate degree in film, was an extra for two films this summer—Ride with the Devil and Monday After the Miracle.
The first is about Quantrill's Raid and was filmed in Missouri. The second is a story of Helen Keller and will be released as a CBS movie Nov. 22.
Brown got the parts with help from Jack Wright, a theater and film professor who also owns a casting agency in Kansas City, Mo.
"I did the whole little spiel where you sit down and take pictures," Brown said. "Every now and then they call me for extra bits if they need an African male."
Working on the films was a fun learning experience for Brown
because he has always been interested in the behind-the-scenes work of movies.

"I love watching that stuff on TV," he said. "Actually being there on the set, actually seeing what they do, see the director say cut and all that good stuff, that was fun for me."
"I know I can't act," Brown said. "I've never acted in anything with any substance or meat to it."
But although he's delved into the world of acting, one thing keeps him from dreaming of being a star.
In his years as a film major, Brown escaped without ever acting in a University production.
"I really don't like theater all that much," he said. "I've learned to like it since I've been here, because the different classes that I've taken, I was required to see all the plays."
In the long run, Brown would rather work behind the scenes as a director, screenwriter or producer in television.
But first he wants to get his graduate degree in business.
"I want to be well-rounded," Brown said.
He is taking two independent study classes, a fitness class and a transition class from the university.
He plans to take the Graduate Management Admissions Test
(GMAT) next semester so he can start graduate school in the fall.
For now, he's acting and playing football, two things in his life he feels are very similar to each other.
"I think they're somewhat the
same." Brown said. "I have fun doing both. Out there on the football field I really try to keep it loose, and try to have fun with the other guys. It's all about having fun. What I can do to have fun and keep the other guys having fun."
Victories shift high school rankings
The Associated Press
TOPEKA - Hutchinson's stay among Kansas' high school football elite was short-lived in The Associated Press consensus rankings.
After knocking Derby out of the No.1 ranking in Class 6A two weeks ago, the Salt Hawks themselves were ousted from the No.4 position and ushered out of the Top5 ratings after a 20-13 overtime loss to Maize last week.
Prep teams launched district play last week and play their second district games this week. They decide district championships and playoff berths next week in the final regular season games of 1998.
Wichita Southeast remained the unanimous No.1 choice in Class 6A after thrashing Wichita Heights,
48-7, last week. Garden City took advantage of Hutchinson's slide to move into the 6A ratings with a 40-0 win against Dodge City.
Liberal also retained the top rating in 5A, unanimously, after whipping Goddard, 28-7. Only change in 5A saw Salina Central jump from No. 4 to No. 2 after walloping Great Bend, 42-6. That shoved Blue Valley-Stilwell and Fort Scott down one notch each even though they won.
Also a unanimous top choice was Topeka Hayden in Class 4A, after it smoked Wamego, 55-18. Sabetha, a 35-6 winner over Atchison, held onto the second spot in 4A.
Other unanimous choices in this week's rankings are Smith Center in 3A and Little River in Eight-Man I, while Sylvan Grove again missed being unanimous by just one vote
in Eight-Man II. Claflin and Atwood are locked in a tight race for No.1 in Class 2-1A.
AP consensus rankings are an average of ratings by the Hutchinson News, Salina Journal, Topeka Capital-Journal and Wichita Eagle.
Here are the AP consensus rankings after seven weeks:

Commentary
Pro soccer and college can mix
Last week's column obviously touched some sort of nerve. Of the mail I received, the following best crystallized public opinion:
"Now I agree there may be a problem in the 'American system,' but skipping college is nowhere close to an answer. Nino (DaSilva, member of the Kansas City Wizards who passed up college to go MLS) expressed to me several times he would have loved to go to college. However, as you pointed out, the little practice the NCAA allows, along with almost no national exposure, players like Nino feel as though they have nothing to gain from college. That is where the problem is, the way the NCAA runs their soccer programs. You do give credit to the benefits of an education, however, American kids do not need to pass up college to keep up with the world." — Adam Shainberg, Chicago freshman
I'll tell you the same thing that I told Mr. Shainberg: "You're right."
Allow me to preface the rest of this with an important point: I'm not making these arguments in a vacuum. For the past six months, I've been in close contact with people around the country who are dedicated to changing the way that soccer players are developed in the United States. For a good look at what they are trying to accomplish, check out fans Dan Barnes and Dan Roudebush's Web site at http://www.visi.com/~dpbarnes/Commentary/Index.html.
There are several schools of thought on development reform right now. One is to leave everything as it is. This view is often held by those with a stake in the current system: namely, colleges, youth directors and the like. The opposite, which is to encourage professionals to run player-development schemes, is generally supported by immigrant communities or soccer traditionalists.
I think I have a solution that could make everyone happy.
Academics and professional athletic training are not mutually exclusive. For example, Ajax of Amsterdam, which is renowned for the astonishing number of world-class players that it produces, focuses strongly on education of the mind as well as the body
PETER BLAKE
Sam Pierron
John O'Brien, a Californian who left the States to train with Ajax when he was 16, has earned close to a university degree in his studies there, all paid by Ajax.
There is no reason that MLS couldn't pursue something along these lines. MLS could work with colleges in MLS cities, forming reserve/youth teams with the college's name. These players would train with the pros and be eligible to play with the pros, but they would get education and some games out of it.
Undoubtedly, some players would be drawn to a program that allowed them to develop more as a soccer player while getting an education. Even so, a lot of good players would still flock to the traditional college programs, as there is a certain level of tradition in the NCAA system.
Why don't I particularly care about college soccer? I didn't grow up with it. Why didn't I grow up with it? Find out in my next column, as I investigate why there isn't men's varsity soccer at the University.

Falcon defies odds with chance to start game
The Associated Press
SUWANEE, Ga. — Hey, Steve, how do you feel?
With Steve DeBerg, the conversation always seems to start with that harmless query, one that takes on significance when chatting with a 44-year-old quarterback.
"I'm fine," DeBerg replied Monday when the inevitable question came his way in the Atlanta Falcons locker room. "I don't have any problems."
DeBerg already has defied staggering odds by making it back to the NFL after a four-season retirement. On Sunday, he
proved he could hold up for two quarters and lead a team to victory. Now, he might get a chance to show if he is ready for his first start in 1.777 days.
Chris Chandler's left shoulder is ailing, making him doubtful for this weekend's game against the New York Jets. So the Falcons (5-1), seeking the best start in franchise history, are prepared to give the ball to DeBerg, not having any idea if a 44-year player can handle the job.
"We're dealing with the unknown," coach Dan Reeves said. "Until he plays a full game, no one is really going to know for sure."
Already, DeBerg has played a key role
in the Falcons equaling the best start in team history.
On Sunday, after Chandler hobbled off the field in excruciating pain late in the first half, DeBerg slipped on his helmet and made sure Atlanta remained tied for first in the National Football Conference West with a 31-23 victory against the New Orleans Saints.
DeBerg certainly has not taken the easy way out. He retired after the '93 season, a 16-year career seemingly prepared to retire at age 40, but he maintained his physical condition, kept throwing a football in his spare time and finally talked himself into trying a comeback.
When family illnesses forced Mark Rypien to sit out the season, the Falcons were left with no choice for an experienced backup other than DeBerg, a former assistant to Reeves with the New York Giants.
If Chandler can't play against the Jets, DeBerg will make his first start since Dec. 13, 1993, when he subbed for the injured Dan Marino in Miami.
"You really don't have time during the season to reflect on things," DeBerg said. "Everything happens so fast. Everything is so intense, you have to be so focused on the preparation. Really, you don't have much time to reflect on the game you just played. Everything just moves on."
'The Catch' lives in hearts, minds of 'Huskers fans
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — It has been called the "Flea Kicker" and "The Line-Drive Hall Mary." In the Nebraska play book, it is "99 Double Slant." To many Cornhuskers fans, it is simply the "Catch."
And now, it is back.
With No. 7 Nebraska meeting No. 19 Missouri on Saturday, the miracle finish to last year's game between the schools is back on television sportscasts.
They want to talk about what happened Nov. 8 in Columbia, Mo
"I don't know why you guys want to talk to me this week." he ioked.
The players involved in the play still cannot seem to escape it. Matt Davison, the freshman receiver who made the magic catch, said it changed his life.
Now a sophomore, Davison had 10 catches for a school-record 167 yards in Nebraska's 28-21 loss at Texas A&M two weeks ago. But that is not why people stop him on campus or in supermarkets.
happened Nov. 8 in Columbia, Mo.
"I don't mind people asking me about it," Davison said. "I just try to stay humble. I know I didn't do anything great. I was just the guy who was at the right place at the right time."
N tinkers
What a finish it was.
Top-ranked Nebraska trailed 83-31 when quarterback Scott Frost led the Huskers 67 yards in the final 1:02. With seven seconds to play at Missouri's 12 yard line, Frost threw a pass.
His target, Shevin Wiggins, bobbled the football near the goal line as two Missouri defenders converged on him. As Wiggins tumbled, the ball bounced out of his reach and the clock expired.
But before the ball reached the turf, Wiggins kicked it about two yards past his head and into the end zone. Davison came from nowhere to scoop the ball.
Game finished. Nebraska 45. Missouri 38.
Kris Brown kicked the extra point to force overtime. Three plays later, Frost scored on a 6-yard run. Four plays after that, Mike Rucker sacked Missouri quarterback Corv Jones.
The narrow win preserved what would become a 13-0 season and gave them a national title they shared with Michigan.
"It has just set in to me over time that it (the catch) was bigger than I thought at the time." Davison said.

THERE IS NO LIBERTY WITHOUT FREE SPEECH AND OPEN DEBATE
ANTI-DEFAMATION LEAGUE (ADL)
Every historical controversy can be debated on national television except one—the Jewish holocaust story. Why? Who benefits? Open debate, nothing else, will expose the facts behind this taboo.
To this end Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) offers $250,000 to the one individual instrumental in arranging a 90-minute debate on National Network Television, in prime time, between CODOH (Bradley R. Smith, Dir.), and the
Issues to be debated: (1) Were "gas chambers" used during WWII by Germans to kill millions of Jews as part of a program of "genocide?" (2) Did key "eyewitness" survivors give false testimony about "gas chambers"? (3) Is the Diary of Anne Frank an authentic personal diary or a "literary" concoction? (4) Is either the book or the movie Schindler's List true or an intentionally corrupt version of the facts? (5) Are Jewish organizations like the ADL and campus Hillel committed to the censorship of revisionist theory on the Jewish holocaust? (6) Should the ADL, campus Hillel and other mainline Jewish organizations respond with a "suspicious silence" when a sister organization encourages violence against revisionists? (7) Should a documentary film maker be made the target of violence by the Jewish Defense League (or any other "league"), as was David Cole, the Jewish writer and director of CODOH's video on Auschwitz, David Cole Interviews Dr. Franciszek Piper (called "The Video of the Century"), for exposing on film the fraud of the Auschwitz gas chamber?
Marcy Kaptur (D), U.S. Congresswoman, Ohio writes: "Mr Cole has obviously invested a great deal in researching his subject and I admire his tenacious curiosity. Again, I thank you for sharing this documentary with myself and other Members of Congress." Yehuda Bauer, head of the Hebrew University's Institute of Contemporary Jewry and Humanities (Jerusalem), writes: "A powerful, dangerous video..."
The Jewish Defense League writes (in a "Wanted" ad for Mr. Cole, on the Internet, which includes Cole's photograph): "An evil monster like this does not deserve to live... We must get rid of this monster... There needs to be ... the elimination of the Holocaust deniers. JDL wants to know the location of ... David Cole. Anyone giving us his correct address will receive a monetary reward."
The FBI has termed the JDL a "terrorist organization."
The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith refuses to publicly condemn the Jewish Defense League, for this language of hate. The reason is clear. The ADL, by proxy, is "using" this threat of violence against a Jewish scholar in its own struggle to help censor open debate on the Holocaust controversy. This betrays our First Amendment and runs contrary to Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Who benefits from such censorship? Americans?
Over the past decades there have been thousands—if not tens of thousands—of hours of one-sided Holocaust allegations broadcast to the American people. Is it not fair that those of us who are not anti-German bigots, who no longer believe the gas chamber stories but do believe in intellectual freedom, should be given 90 minutes—only 90 minutes!—to debate the Anti-Defamation League over the suppression and censorship of holocaust revisionism?

Yankees win game No.3
A N.Y. win tonight would seal series
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — A change of scenery didn't change a thing for the San Diego Padres.
Scott Brosius made sure of it
New York's Brosius hit his second homer of the game, a stunning three-run shot off relief ace Trevor Hoffman in the eighth inning, and the Yankees moved within one win of a World Series sweep with a 5-4 victory in Game 3 last night.
Out of the Bronx and inside a ballpark that serves up fish tacos, palm trees and beach balls, the Yankees are looking for their first sweep since 1950.
On a night when everything seemed to be going right for San Diego — great plays, clutch pitching by Sterling Hitchcock and key hits from Tony Gwynn — Brosius
Andy Pettitte will start for the Yankees in Game 4 tonight, most likely against Kevin Brown.
No team in baseball history has overcome an 0-3 deficit in the postseason, and now the Padres must try to do it against a club trying to cement its place as the best ever.
and the Yankees ruined it.
Hitless for five innings, against David Cone, the Padres took a 3-0 lead in the
World Series
1988
sixth on a burst started by Hitch cock's unlikely single.
Yet with 64,667 crazed fans roaring and the cranked-up rock music blaring, these Yankees would not break.
Brosius led off the seventh with a home run against Hitchcock, MVP of the NL championship and a member of the Yankees' rotation with Cone in 1995. New York closed
to 3-2, but shortstop Chris Gomez made an eye-popping catch to start an inning-ending double play.
But in the eighth, there was no one left to save the Padres.
Slumping Paul O'Neill drew a leadoff walk from Randy Myers once again, the Yankees' patience at the plate paid off and then manager Bruce Bochy made an early call to the bullpen.
It was Trevor Time, and Hoffman walked in as AC/DC's "Hell's Bells" sent the crowd into a frenzy. Hoffman had been successful on 53 of 54 save chances during the regular season, though a blown chance in the NLCS against Atlanta perhaps was a bad omen.
Hoffman wound up with the loss while Ramiro Mendoza won in relief. Mariano Rivera held on for a save, working around a pair of two-out singles by Carlos Hernandez and pinch-hitter Mark Sweeney by striking out Andy Sheets with runners at the corners for the last out.
Padres' Swinging Friar has a mysterious past
SAN DIEGO — He is a cute, pudgy man of God who cracks a mean bat. He is the Swinging Friar, a Padres mascot and a man of mystery.
The Associated Press
In fact, the mascot goes back so far nobody really knows when the little guy was born. In a town crazed by baseball, though, fans are just glad the short, balding holy man still supplies the blessings.
"I like the friar because he's always smiling and hitting it over the fence," said fan Susan Baird. "He represents San Diego: Nice people, but we can kick butt when we have to."
The cartoon figure has been associated with the team at least since 1958, when the Padres were in the minor leagues. And while it seems a natural choice for a mascot — San Diego was built around Spanish missions settled by Franciscan friars to convert Indians to Christianity — no one is sure who had the idea.
"I went back to 1939 and looked at programs and didn't see him," said Glenn Turgeon, assistant historian at the San Diego Hall of Champions, where the city's sports history is preserved.
Padres representative John Schlegel believes the mascot was named and designed as part of a
contest.
What is certain is that at least for the past 40 years the friar has always worn the garb of a medieval beggar — sandals, dark hooded habit, rope around the waist. And, of course, a grin.
He lost his halo as he grew up during the 1960s. He swung to the left for a few years, then to the right, and he even wore a glove for a season.
He disappeared in 1984 after the Padres made their only other appearance in the World Series. The cuddy clergyman was replaced with a corporate, baseball-shaped logo with pinstripes and the Padres name stretched across, but fans continued to wear their Swinging Friars T-shirts.
The friar was reborn in 1996 as part of the Padres' 60th anniversary and a marketing plan by the team's new management, majority owner John Moores and president Larry Lachino.
He was given a more rounded head, a bigger smile and the color of his robe was changed from brown to plum. A costume was designed to bring the Swinging Friar to life at games, a fuzzy character who wanders the stands and inspires the crowd.
He is so popular, the Friar was added to the team's uniforms last year, and he is prominently featured on the team's Web site and publications.

Movie ticket discount approved
(USPS 650-640)
KU senators asked Hollywood Theaters for lower student rate
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students will get the movie-ticket discount that Student Senate representatives had requested from Hollywood Theaters.
On Monday, Alan Stearns, graduate senator, was told by Tracy M. Bundy, director of marketing and communications for Hollywood Theaters Inc., that she had good news.
"She told me that the company had decided to restructure their pricing and that KU students would start getting a discount on tickets," Stearns said. "The new price for students will be $4.75."
Student tickets used to cost $6.
The idea to ask Hollywood for a discount on tickets originated in Student Senate two months ago. A letter was sent to Hollywood Theaters headquarters in Dallas on Sept. 15. It was signed by Stevena Maria
15. It was signed by Stearns; M.
Abatington, liberal arts and sci-
Ataboglon, liberal arts an ences senator; and Mark Horowitz, graduate senator.
Bundy said Hollywood officials had a meeting Monday to review their companywide prices.
"It was a good time to bring
"It was a good time to bring
to the request from KU's student senators
firp"
Hollywood Theaters
Hollywood Theaters operates two locations in Lawrence: Southwind 12, 3433 Iowa St., and Hollywood Plaza 6, 2339 Iowa St.
Bundy said that at those locations, KU student tickets would cost $4.75 and that regular ticket prices would be raised to $4.95
Bundy said the 25-cent increase in regular admission was unrelated to the KU student
discount
"It was not to offset the price of student tickets," she said. "We reviewed our prices across the board, and that was just another decision
Abatoglou said she was happy and surprised about the discount.
Abatogloou said putting Student Senate's name on the request made things happen.
"This is a testament to Hollywood's desire to serve their customers," she said. "It was really so easy to get the discount. All we had to do was ask."
"If we were not on Senate, and we sent the letter as concerned students, I think they wouldn't have cared as much. They may have just shoved us off," she said. "But it had a lot more power when the letter represented Student Senate and thus, all of the students at KU."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said he was happy to see a tangible benefit for KU students.
"Too often people say that because we're students, we're powerless," he said. "But when students come together and work together, they really can achieve change."
Bundy said she hopes the discount works for KU students.
"We didn't do this for high school students, we're doing it for the University," she said. "I hope it works out for both Hollywood and the students at KU."
Bundy said the new discount might take effect as soon as Friday.
Simulated car crash draws campus crowd
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Students, police and paramedics gathered around two smashed vehicles on the Stauffer-Flint Hall lawn yesterday in an effort to increase alcohol awareness on campus.
"Don't drink and drive. Don't ride with somebody who is impaired. Take your turn as a designated driver, and always wear your seat belt," said Bob Newton, station manager of KLZR-FM, who narrated the events to an audience of about 75 students. "We're going to show you the dangers of drinking and driving in a real way."
Three students played the roles of two drivers and a passenger in the simulated alcohol-related crash. KU police officers responded first and
were followed by Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical personnel.
Emergency workers assessed injuries, secured the scene, performed field sobriety tests and freed one victim from her vehicle with the Jaws of Life, a hydraulic device used to pry apart wreckage — all in less than 15 minutes.
Those involved with the presentation hoped it would make students think twice before driving drunk.
"Don't drink and drive. I think that is a very important issue," said Sgt. Troy Malen of the KU Public Safety Office.
"It all comes down to making smart choices." "Newton, of KLZR, said the event was intended to make students think.
"The whole idea is to reach people with a message. This is a good way to demonstrate something graphically," he said.

Homecoming game to take parking spots from play
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
The rescheduling of Saturday's homecoming football game between the University of Kansas and the University of Colorado may cause some parking headaches for those who choose to attend the final production of "The Batting Cage."
Two hours later, at 8 p.m., the final performance of "The Batting Cage" will start in Murphy Hall's Crafton-Preyer Theatre.
Parking for the performance will be limited, said Charla Jenkins, director of public relations for the University Theatre.
"We are assuming that patrons of the football game will take up the parking spaces near Murphy Hall." Jenkins said. "There is not much we can do now."
Jenkins said that University Theatre productions had to compete with sporting events several times in the past few years.

Jenkins said that the theater staff told people as they bought tickets for "The Batting Cage" that there would not be many parking spaces available.
"We advised that they should arrive early and be prepared to hunt for a space," Jenkins said.
Jenkins said that the theater department did not blame the Athletics Department for the problems.
"If they get a chance to get on TV, they are going to do it." she said.
"The saddest part is that it has to be an either-or," she said. "The Athletic Department is completely controlled by TV and the Big 12."

Yankees dominate World Series, and fans frolic in fantastic season
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The New York Yankees' four-game sweep of the San Diego Padres in the World Series last night wasn't the most memorable highlight of the 1998 baseball season.
In fact, some University of Kansas student would say it was only expected after the Yankees collected an American League record 114 wins in the regular season
"I think the whole playoffs built on what Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa were doing," Siebenthalt said. "But this will solidify their spot as one of the best teams in baseball history. They had more wins than any other team in history."
But according to Aaron Siebenthall, Lawrence senior, it was the fitting end to an incredible Yankees season.
Yankees
Although many baseball fans would have liked to see the Padres stretch it out to at least one more game, Randy Streeter, Beaver Falls, N.Y., senior, said that the remnants of this season will overflow into 1999.
"I predict that next year baseball fans will be much more attentive because of the biggest thing that happened in baseball — the two guys nearing 70 home runs," Streeter said. "That snowballled into how many wins the Yankees had and proving themselves in the playoffs."
Despite the overwhelming odds of a comeback.
some Padres supporters said that they had honored for at least one more win
"If the Padres would have won, they would have given it a good fight and that's what this past season was all about," said Stacy Hensic, St. Louis senior. "The Cardinals weren't highly ranked, but the whole nation

Settling enrollment holds to be expedited
By Carolyn Mollett
Students have enough to worry about with long lines and closed classes. To prevent further delays in the enrollment process, students should make sure before they go to enroll at Strong Hall that they don't have holds to take care.
"They will be turned away at the door if it has not been cleared," said Brenda Selman, assistant registrar for enrollment services.
Kansan staff writer
The enrollment headache starts tomorrow.
Selman said there are 20 different kinds of holds, but many of those are only applicable to a few students. Most holds are Billing and Receivable System holds, she said.
BRS holds are from the central billing office of the University. They include outstanding tuition, housing, library, dial-in access and health payments, said Karen Bailey, bursar at the cashier's office.
Other holds include parking tickets and immunizations.
Dardid had to walk from Strong Hall to Carruth-O'Leary Hall, pay a fee, walk back to Strong Hall then wait in line again.
Ryan Dardis, Apple Valley,
Minn., senior, said that twice in
the past he had holds that he wasn't
aware of until he enrolled.
"It's ridiculous. It's a bunch of red tape." Dardis said.
"It just sucks." he said.
Holds can be settled this year in 132 Strong Hall. The room will be open from 8 a.m. to noon, then from 1 to 5 p.m., Hahn said. The room offers assistance to students who forget to take care of their holds when they go to enroll.
To prevent this problem, students should look on their permit to enroll to see whether they have a hold, said Joan Hahn, room supervisor at the enrollment center. She said many students were totally shocked when they tried to enroll but were turned away.
ENROLLMENT HOLDS
- To determine whether you have a hold that will prevent you from enrolling, look on your permit to enroll.
Holds are listed on the permit in an area below the advising portion and above students' course selections.
The permit will describe what type of hold you have and where you should go to clear it.
"It's basically just designed to offer some expediency to students." Hahn said.
Selman said this was the third semester in the past four semesters the room had been available for emergency assistance.
The hold room only clears holds from BRS and parking tickets, Selman said. But she said staff would try to direct students to other locations that could clear holds.

"You can't give a shot if a student needs an immunization," Selman said.

Ten Lawrence agencies looking for volunteers
"Anytime your representative comes to town, you want to bend his ear and tell him your concerns," Yoder said.
The information fair was organized by the Center for Community Outreach, a KU volunteer-recruitment student group.
About 10 Lawrence volunteer agencies were on the University of Kansas campus yesterday to recruit volunteers
The fair took place in the fourth-floor lobby of the Kansas Union from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
The church maintains information on 63 volunteer agencies in Douglas County and over 600 national and international agencies, said Thad Holcombe, ECM pastor.
Students interested in gaining information on volunteer opportunities in Lawrence and overseas can drop by today at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., said Erika Nutt, co-director of the center and Wichita senior.
Volunteers will be stationed at ECM from 10:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
"Some of this information is found online, and some of it is in various departments but we are possibly the only people here who have all this information in one place," Holcombe said.

Group to mix culture, food at potluck dinner
The Multicultural Student Coalition wants student organizations to come together tonight — and bring a dish to share.
The coalition is sponsoring a potluck dinner at 6:30 p.m at the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center,1631 Crescent Road.The dinner is open to the public,but participants are asked to contribute food.
The coalition's president, Sophia Galarza Liu, said that the dinner was to let students know about the coalition.
"The purpose of the pottuck is the same as the coalition's purpose — to bring groups together who normally don't come together," she said.
Nellie Kim, president of the Asian American Student Union, said that representatives of at least five campus minority organizations would attend. She said the coalition would like others to come also.
"We're trying to unite the organizations, whether they be minority or non-minority, to increase diversity and make people aware of our cultures," Kim said.
The coalition is a new organization formed this fall at the University. The potluck is the second event the group has sponsored. The coalition joined with First Nations Student Association to sponsor a Columbus Day rally.

Student assaulted near KU Public Safety Office
A Lawrence man who led police on a slow-speed chase Monday was arrested for battering a KU student and damaging three vehicles Tuesday.
The man damaged two state vehicles and one vehicle owned by an employee of the University, all between 9:45 and 9:50 p.m., said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
According to police reports, all three vehicles were parked in Lot 1, next to Carruth O'Leary Hall, which houses the Public Safety Office.
After damaging the cars, the suspect headed into Lot 50, behind Joseph R. Pearson Hall, where he yelled at a woman who was walking through the lot. He then confronted a male student and kicked the student in the groin, Mailen said.
A witness to the incident and the victim told an officer behind Carruth-O'Leary what had happened, and the officer found the man at in the 1100 block of Indiana Street. He was arrested and taken to Douglas County Jail.
Jail officials wanted the man's condition evaluated before he could be admitted to the jail.
"He has been in and out of institutions," Mailen said. "They were going to try to get him needed help."
Law enforcement officials are seeking to have the man involuntarily committed to an institution, Malen said.

Man involved in theft leads to more arrests
Three Lawrence men were arrested Tuesday, following a theft at Riverfront Cafe, but two of the men were not involved with the crime.
A 40-year-old suspect, was arrested after a witness saw him steal money from an unattended cash register in the restaurant, located at 1 Riverfront Plaza. Lawrence police said the suspect took $150 from the register about 1:05 p.m. when the cafe attendant was away from the counter.
The man then ran from the cafe, but was captured by police about a half hour later in the 800 block of New Jersey Street.
Two other men, ages 20 and 22, were arrested when police saw one of the men get into a car parked in the area where the store theft suspect had fled.
The driver and a passenger were driving away when police, suspecting them of being connected with the theft, attempted to pull the vehicle over.
The driver did not pull over immediately. Both men were arrested when the stop was finally made, police said.
The passenger was arrested for an outstanding warrant, and the driver was arrested because he had no driver's license, no proof of insurance and for driving with an expired tag.

Bad parts may delay Boeing production line
SEATTLE — Boeing Co. officials say they're evaluating whether the discovery of some defective wiring components in jetliners will cause new delays on the company's production lines.
Company officials said yesterday no planes with suspect parts, known as Burmy blocks, had been delivered to customers. They were unable to say how many planes were affected.
The problem was detected after Boeing received a shipment of 18,000 of the parts and some failed testing before being installed, company officials said.
Company officials decided not to use any Burndy blocks from the shipment, but some already had been installed on planes and managers didn't know which aircraft were affected.
A Burdy block is an electrical connector that splices together wiring, Wolf Glende, chief engineer for 777 systems, said.
ON THE RECORD
Burndy blocks are found on Boeing's new-model 737s, as well as the 747, 757, 767 and 777 airplanes and on the MD-90 and MD-11. They are not found on older 737 models, the MD-80 or the 717.
The Associated Press
The rear driver side window of a KU student's car was smashed between 11:45 p.m. Monday and 9:30 a.m. Tuesday in the 4500 block of Wimbledon Drive, Lawrence police said. The damage was $100.
Glende said the defect did not represent a safety issue at this stage.
"No suspect parts have been delivered to the best of our knowledge," he said.
The driver side door of a KU student's car was damaged, and a CD player and two speakers were stolen from the car between 1 a.m. and 11:30 p.m. Tuesday in the 200 block of Woodgate Place, Lawrence police said. The damage to the car was $200, and the property was valued at $509.
A Lawrence man ran a stop sign and struck the KU student's vehicle at 6:25 p.m. Sunday at Naismith Drive and Irving Hill Road, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the vehicle was estimated at more than $500.
A KU student's bicycle was stolen between 6 p.m. Sept. 20 and 12 p.m. Oct. 11 from a rack outside Hashinger Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The bike was valued at $580.
A KU police officer was dispatched at 11:43 p.m. Monday to Jayhawker Towers for a report of a pregnant woman without a ride home. The young woman, 17, gave the officer a false name and said she was waiting for a ride. On the way to the Public Safety Office, she said she had run away from Hannah's House Foundation, 1009 New Hampshire St. The officer drove her back to the house, where an employee said earlier Lawrence police had taken a report that the girl had run away. The girl stayed at the house.
A KU police officer was dispatched at 4:09 p.m. Tuesday to Hashinger Hall, where a female student was lying on a restroom floor covered with a blanket, the KU Public Safety Office said. The woman had been discovered by another resident about 10 minutes earlier. She was having trouble speaking, and Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical officials treated her and transported her to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Alcohol-related crash simulation draws attention
Continued from page 1A
Some say the message might be a tough sell for students, however.
"Everybody's going to drink, and most people are going to drive," said Matt Franzenburg. Kevstone, Iowa, sophomore.
"It's important. My uncle was in a wreck like this ten years ago and was killed, so it's always something I think about." Franzenburg said.
He said the presentation was still worthwhile.
"It raises awareness and makes people think," he said.
James Candarazo, Topea sophomore, said that he thought word of mouth would bring the message to more students and that it would make a difference.
The cars for the demonstration were donated by Kaw Valley Motors, a salvage and towing company at 1549 N. Third St., and arrived at the Stauffer-Flint Hall lawn about 2 1/2 hours late.
"KU parking was towing off cars this morning, and we were busy with them," said Mike Faler, a representative of Kaw Valley Motors.
Mailen, of the KU Office of Public Safety, said he regretted the delay, which pushed back the presentation from 12:20 p.m. to 1:20 p.m.
Because of the change in start time, participants could not use a microphone or amplifier, which are allowed on campus only during the lunch hour, from noon to 1.p.m. The delay also might have affected the size of the audience, Mailen said.
"I wish we'd had a larger crowd," he said. However, Mailen said the day was a success despite the delay.
"I think we more than made up for it with the presentation."

Hispanic, Latin American different, admissions says
By Mariana Paiva
Kanson staff writer
Lisa Marte does not take offense at being called Hispanic, or for that matter Latina.
Marte, Santo Domingo, Dominican Republican, freshman, said that she does not mind if people call her Hispanic or Latina. For her, those two terms are not different than being called Latin American.
But at the University of Kansas, there is a clear difference between students who are come from Latin American and students characterized as Hispanic who live in the United States but have a Latin American background.
The 20th day ethnic head count showed that there are 594 Hispanics and 174 Latin American students enrolled at the University of Kansas.
Robert Page, assistant director of admissions, said those numbers did not overlap and the office only counted Latin American students as Hispanics if they made this choice when applying to the University.
Last year, 11 more Latin American students were enrolled at the University and 17 fewer Hispanic students.
Juan Velasco, professor of American studies and Latin American studies, said Hispanic was a label created by the government to try and identify certain geographical areas or certain groups of people who usually are regarded as descendants of the post-colonial experience from Spain and Portugal.
"Because this name was created by the U.S. government, it usually doesn't reflect the diversity of experiences of people south of the border, or the ones who live in the United States." Velasco said. "Hispanic is a label the government uses to count the group as a minority, but you can call yourself whatever you think is better."
He said that Latin American descendants in different places of the United States named themselves differently, creating these variations.
"The word I use the most in my class is Latino". Velasco said, "Latino and Hispanic are very similar, but it seems to me that Latino encompasses more than Portuguese. Spanish and French."
Javier Castro Pena, Cordoba, Argentina, graduate student, said he preferred to be called Argentinean, but he said a lot of people think everything is the same from Mexico to Argentina.
"People may call us Hispanic, because we speak Spanish, but for me, Latin American is a more appropriate term to identify us," he said. "Although we are identified as one single group, there are many differences between all countries."
In an attempt to avoid more categorizing, the Hispanic American Leadership Organization does not want to restrict itself to American students who have Latin American background.
"Although the majority of our members are Mexican-American they don't want to leave the other Hispanics out. They want to be more inclusive, they want more people from Latin America to come," said Gloria Flores, program director of the multicultural resource center.
Veteran employee retiring soon
Facilities Operations will miss manager
By Nadia Mustafa Special to the Kanson
Ending a 44-year career that has spanned eight chancellors and beginning as a 75-cent-an-hour KU electrician, Bob Porter, veteran Facilities Operations manager, announced this week that he will retire in January.
Porter, associate director of physical plant maintenance, said he had wanted to retire in June 1997. He decided to stay on board to implement administrative and organizational changes he advocated.
When none of the changes occurred, Porter said he decided to retire. Porter would not comment further on what changes he wished to see.
Steve Green, Facilities Operations director of finance, said Porter has a reputation for getting things done quickly.
"I'm 62 years old," he said. "It's time to move on."
"If you go to him with a complaint, he is immediately on the phone getting someone to act on the problem," he said.
Green said he was sad Porter is retiring.
"A whole lot of knowledge and history goes out the door when he leaves," he said. "No one has done as many things as
"He has seen about one-third of the life of the University and he can remember when a lot of buildings were built and their intricacies," Richardson said. "He is always willing to share his knowledge with his co-workers. That is very valuable in a maintenance organization."
he has for as long as he has."
Mike Richardson, director of Facilities Operations, said Porter has a unique amount of institutional knowledge about the University.
He added that Porter is exceptionally talented at leading staff during emergency situations and that he played a key role in dealing with the fire in Hoch Auditorium in 1991.
A ceremony honoring Porter will be scheduled for January.
Richardson said the University is discussing Facilities Operations administrative restructuring, which must be completed before beginning a national search to fill Porter's position.
Porter began working for the University as a high school student, changing light bulbs in 1953. In 1954, after his high school graduation, he joined the Facilities Operations staff as a laborer in the electrical shop. He still recalled the exact date he was hired.
"It was May 27th,1954," Porter said. "I was really happy to get a job and come to work for 75 cents an hour."
He worked as a general maintenance
repair technician and an electrician before he became electrical foreman in 1963, a position he held for 13 years. Porter said the job was the one he most enjoyed because he was allowed to conduct his own estimating, ordering, scheduling and inspections.
"I'm not a desk person," he said. "I like to get out on the job site to visit with people and see what they're doing."
In 1976, Porter was promoted to assistant director of refrigeration and electrical systems. In 1980, the University offered him his current position. Porter said that at the time he was not prepared to make any more career moves, but he accepted the job on a temporary basis and ended up permanently holding the position.
He said he had enjoyed all his jobs at Facilities Operations.
"I was very fortunate to be able to stay within the same department for over 44 years," Porter said. "The University has been exceptionally good to me."
Porter said he plans on traveling and pursuing hobbies after he retires on Jan. 22, but he still will be involved in University activities and will attend athletic events.
He said the aspects of his job he will miss the most are his co-workers, faculty, staff and students.
"The people will be the hardest part to leave," he said. "Over the years I have met so many people from all around campus."
Senate passes hate crime resolution
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Last night's Student Senate meeting at Ellsworth Hall may have been more interesting then some senators expected.
Provost David Shulenburger took questions from senators for almost an hour.
One question was why the administration did not include the students in decisions that affected them, such as the Coca-Cola contract.
Sulenburger said the Coke contract didn't compromise any of the University's principals.
SENATE LEGISLATION
"All the contract did was move $7 million from the private sector to the University," he said. "This wasn't the first commercial intrusion on campus. It produced a lot of revenue on campus."
"The Coke contract was decided during the summer, while the students were not around," she said. "It was a 100 percent administrative
PASSED; a resolution affirming students' freedom from hate crimes and the ability to live free and autonomous lives.

decision, and it took away the students' choice. In fact, I feel like they kind of tried to cover it up by doing it in the summer."
Shulenburger said that it was the students' responsibility to notify the administration if they had suggestions for improvement.
Once Shulenburger stopped taking questions, Senate moved on to legislation. The Senate passed a resolution affirming students' freedom from hate crimes and the ability to live free and autonomous lives.
The resolution asked that Chancellor Robert
Hemenway issue a public statement condemning the murder of Matthew Shepard, a 21-year-old gay University of Wyoming student who was murdered Oct. 7.
A debate ensued about whether the resolution should include two paragraphs that mentioned Hemenway's support of 14 African-American University of Wyoming football players who in 1969 protested against Brigham Young University and the way Mormons were treating African-Americans.
Hemenway, a University of Wyoming faculty member at the time, openly backed the players even though the University would not.
The resolutions passed,including the paragraphs to show that Hemenway had a history of supporting student rights.
All three senators who sponsored the bill declined to comment on if they thought Hemenway would actually make the statement.
"Regardless of whether Chancellor Hemenway makes a statement, Student Senate has made a statement for the student body," said Amy Cummins, graduate senator.

Womyn Take Back the Night is for anyone who is against violence
Although domestic and random violence against women has been an issue for several decades, women and children still are often in danger. "Womyn Take Back the Night" is trying to put women and children out of danger.
The rally on Oct.22 will be a chance for women and men to not only draw attention to the problem of violence against women and children, but also strive for solutions.
Events begin at 5 p.m. in South Park, where information booths from campus groups and causes will be available to view along with the clothesline project. The clothesline project is a display of T-shirts made by victims of violence reflecting their experiences.
The event focuses on women but does not entirely exclude men.
fence reflecting their shapes. The rest of the night will consist of musical, poetic and other performances; a women's march along Massachusetts Street to the train park; and women's and men's circles.
The women's circle is a place where women and children who are survivors of rape, violence or abuse and friends of silent victims can share their experiences. The men's circle will take place at the gazebo, where men will discuss
ways in which they can help prevent violence against women and children.
The idea of excluding men from the Massachusetts Street march and from the circle at the train park is sometimes misunderstood. The idea is not to exclude men entirely, but to allow women and children to take back the night by themselves.
Although the focus is on women regaining confidence and asserting their right to feel safe at any time, the rally should not be exclusive. Anyone — regardless of age or gender — who wants to share in an activity aimed at stopping violence should be allowed to participate.

KU Recreation survey good call
During the month of October, the University of Kansas, through an independent organization, will be conducting a telephone survey of students about Robinson Center and plans for a new or expanded recreation on campus.
This has been a thorny issue on campus for many years. Students have voted against fee increases, fearing that any improvements made would take effect too late for them to enjoy the results. This survey could change that perception.
There were questions about the quality of the survey itself. Some students feared that the survey would be written to reflect the biases and agendas of the student body president and vice president. This fear was fed by
Students should take it seriously and answer questions candidly.
the fact that Kevin Yoder and Scott Kaiser wrote the survey themselves.
This fear has proven to be unfounded. Yoder and Kaiser borrowed the format for the survey (with permission) from a similar survey at Washington State University.
nities to review and rephrase questions in the survey. They also presented it to Donald Haider-Markel, Director of the Campus Research Center, for statistical review and analysis. He made changes to eliminate statistical bias and errors from the survey.
After they changed the questions to fit the University's situation, they presented the survey to Student Senate for review and rewriting. Senate, the Recreation Advisory Board and the Campus Recreation Task Force have all taken advantage of opportunity.
Students owe it to themselves and to future members of the KU community to take this survey seriously. Yoder, Kaiser and everyone else connected with this project have gone to considerable measures to learn what students really want out of a recreation center at the University. Students should return the favor by answering truthfully and thoughtfully if they are contacted to be part of this survey.

Perspective
Womyn take back night demand safe truth circle
Take Back the Night started in Europe, with the first United States event reportedly taking place in San Francisco in 1978. Take Back the Night originally focused on
assist of women, but has broadened in scope nationwide. The first Lawrence Take Back the Night March took place on April 14, 1983. Although the format of the Lawrence march has changed over time, the march in its present form includes a rally for all participants.
P
In its present form, the Lawrence Take Back the Night march includes a rally for all participants; a circle/speakout for women, children and youth; a men's rally; and a women's and children's march. At the circle/speakout, commonly referred to as the women's circle, women, youth and children have the opportunity to share their experiences. We created, and adamantly support, the women's circle to give women a safer space to liberate themselves of shame, fear and isolation, and to have the truths of their lives heard, acknowledged and believed.
Jennifer Roth
Guest Columnist
Deena Wilson

The circle is unique in this
aspect, as there is no other space in society at large where this can occur on a regular basis. For some participants, this is the only place where they feel empowered and safe enough to tell their story.
In telling the truth of their lives at both the circle and the rally, women have occasionally spoken the names of their perpetrators. Contrary to popular belief, the actual naming of perpetrators is not routine. Yet, it is the primary focus of many people's concern. Concentrating on a small part of the larger whole fails to recognize the overall experience and purpose of the circle. However, when naming does occur, life-changing experiences for survivors have followed. For example, we have personally witnessed women, who previously suffered in isolation, come to know that they were victimized by the same person.
During the years, participants and organizers of the march have been threatened with lawsuits and criticized for allowing women to speak about their experiences without restraint. Although we could strictly address these contentions with law and so-called reason, for which we collectively have the formal training, we consciously do not because to do so is to intellectualize away women's and children's experiences.
Their experiences, especially those of individuals who are survivors of violence, may intersect with law and/or reason, but their experiences largely exist outside the realm of both, as neither law nor reason was designed to
acknowledge the truths of women's and children's lives.
Summary, what occurs in the circle is not nurtured and perpetuated by law or reason; instead, it is the business of people who have been traditionally and deliberately silenced by both. To analogize the circle to any decision-making body, especially one with state-sanctioned power, is fallacious. We do not have the power or authority to fire, indict or penalize anyone named as a perpetrator. The power we derive from the circle is the power to make choices affecting our safety and the safety of our families or loved ones.
For two hours, survivors can speak their truths because their experiences are the property of their minds, hearts and bodies. Interestingly, no one has sued us, maybe because survivors can level the legal defense that what they said was the truth. We contend that many people's ultimate fear is not that women will lie but that they will tell the truth. This fear manifested itself at the arch two years ago when unidentified people ran through the park and stole t-shirts from the Clothesline Project that had been painstakingly created by survivors.
There is an African proverb that says if one woman spoke the truth of her life, the world would break open. Not so long ago, there were no battered women's shelters, no rape crisis hotlines and no language to talk about sexual harassment, marital rape or domestic violence. Women risked shame, stigmatization and more violence to share with each other their experiences of survival. The outrageous and committed efforts of women and their allies broke the world open.
Rape Victim-Survivor Service was founded in Lawrence in 1972. In 1974, the first recognized shelter for battered women and their children opened in St. Paul, Minn. Women's Transitional Care Services, the shelter in Lawrence for battered women and their children, started in 1976 as a network of safehomes and opened their first shelter in 1978. The work of women and their allies also has resulted in recognition of the battered women's defense, programs dedicated to addressing woman-to-woman violence, support groups for survivors of violence and the Violence Against Women Act, just to give a few examples. We know the power of the truth and understand our responsibility to encourage truthtelling and coalition building in order to further social change.
In our struggle to be allies to all women, we recognize that the circle needs improvement. We know work needs to be done to make the circle safer for women of color, queer women, survivors of woman-to-woman violence, trans people, women with disabilities and all other women who have a right to claim that space. We hold accountability as an important value, which is evidenced by our constant challenges to make the march and the circle safer.

Naming at women's circle gives accused no recourse
I want to address an issue that has remained unquestioned in Lawrence for far too long. This issue is the naming of names in the women's circle, which occurs during the
"Womyn Take Back the Night" parade. A group of women gather together in a circle in the park, and the intention, as I understand it, is to provide a forum of support for victims of violent crimes. The circle is devoted to empowerment, to increasing awareness and to providing a secure place in the night. I am not protesting these aspects of the circle nor have I ever been accused of improprieties by the circle.

During part of the circle,
During part of the circle women get up in front of the group and one-by one name their attacker. Some women, not all, stand in front of the circle and name a specific person by their first and last name who has allegedly raped or violently abused them in some way.
Given that the subject of sexual violence is so emotionally charged, I wish to be perfectly clear with my intent. I am by no means criticizing or diminishing the movement against rapists and violent crimes. My intention is to protest and highlight the danger inherent in public accusation. My concern is with the specific section of the circle where people are named and accused.
I strongly think that any organized public demonstration, regardless of the issue, that names and condemns another person based only on personal testimony, is wrong. It is wrong because the accusers are not held accountable for the validity of their statements nor for the far-reaching social consequences that the accused incur from an accusation.
Neither the organizers of the "Womyn Take Back the Night" parade nor its participants make any effort to validate or control instances of false accusation. Those who speak in front of the circle do so based solely on their desire. Although this may seem wonderfully democratic and cathartic, it is very dangerous because there is no recourse for the accused if a woman were to lie. Whether a woman chooses to lie is irrelevant; the possibility of defamation exists.
Like McCarthyism, which sought to purge our society of communism, the circle's practice of naming names encourages the belief that mob justice, when it is cathartic, is acceptable. It isn't. Any cause that allows the sentiment of the many to overwhelm the reason of the individual is wrong. It is wrong because, as history has taught us, such practices create totalitarian environments where no one is safe from blame. As a society, we should never tolerate mob mentality or any forms of organized vigilantism. The women's circle is no exception.
Rape is a powerful word in our society, as it should be because of the crime's heinous nature. However, to employ the use of such a word and publicly vilify those who have not had the right to a fair hearing is reminiscent of the tactics employed during the McCarthy hearings. The words maybe different, but the effect is the same; public condemnation that bypasses the right to an impartial hearing in a court of law.
I do not deny that our legal system can and does fail to secure justice for some victims of sexual violence and this is, without a doubt, wrong. However, to swing the pendulum in the opposite direction by naming names in an organized march and to use public condemnation as a weapon of punishment also is wrong.
The intent of the circle is noble and necessary, and rape is a very serious crime that must be addressed. However, the method the circle employs is dangerous. Freedom of speech is the hallmark of democracy and should be protected. Yet, when it is abused in a manner in which potentially innocent people become victims, we as a society should stand against it. Just as the circle participants desire and deserve justice and the right to be heard, so to do the accused deserve the right to a fair hearing. The practice of naming specific names in the women's circle should be abolished.
Bannen is a Lawrence senior in philosophy.

Non-student visitors to see friendly face at new center
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
Although the doors to the visitors' center behind Templin Hall are not ready to open, the University of Kansas has chosen a coordinator for the center to greet people when they arrive.
As construction on the center continues through November, the Office of Admissions and Margey Frederick, the new coordinator, wait for a chance to move into their new home at 15th and Iowa streets.
Frederick will act as a community liaison and extend the services of the visitors' center beyond prospective students.
She said her job would be personalizing the University and giving information to those not necessarily looking to enroll for classes.
"The admissions office focuses on "high school juniorss and seniors, but there was no one else to show any of the other groups around campus."
she said. "I will be working with all the other groups that admissions doesn't take. My goal is to be a friendly face."
Frederick worked part time coordinating tours and information for nonstudent visitors and has worked with more than 6,000 visitors in the past four years.
"I love the job, and it is hard to single out one thing," she said. "Every day is a different day, just dealing with the people. I have the opportunity to be creative and influence the way people think about the University."
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions, said Frederick was chosen to fill the position after a national search.
"Her connections in Lawrence made her a great candidate," he said. "I am excited to work with her enthusiasm and experience."
Cerveny and his staff will have work to do themselves during Thanksgiving break when they move
the Office of Admissions and the scholarship center across campus.
"We will be working with the computer support system in early November," Cerveny said. "The actual office move will be a few days before Thanksgiving. The down time should only be a couple of days that weekend, and we hope to have our phones operating at another location throughout the move."
Admissions staff does not expect the move to affect student services. The only change students will notice when they get back from break will be the change of location. Cerveny said.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said he hoped the change of location went smoothly and said his primary goal for the site was to make it a gathering place for everyone interested in the campus.
Although he said he was disappointed by the delays since the original August completion date, he was excited about the first official entrance to campus.
Visitors' center nears completion
Construction on center behind schedule; original completion date cited as Aug. 1
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
The construction of the new visitors' center at the University of Kansas is behind on its completion date.
In fact, the construction originally was cited to be completed by Aug. 1, said Doug Riat, associate director for design and construction management.
Riat said this completion date would have been impossible for the University to reach because construction on the exterior of the center did not begin until the middle of September because of weeks of continuous rain and poor weather conditions.
"Originally, when the University began planning construction dates, I think they were a bit optimistic about how soon they thought the center could be completed." Larios
Butch Larios, facilities operations project coordinator for the center, said that construction completion was now scheduled for the beginning of November.
said. "We've encountered some problems along the way, including material delays and bad weather, which have set us back some weeks."
Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations, said the University contracted with Kansas Building Systems to complete the project.
Judy Howe, Kansas Building Systems project manager for the visitors' center, was not available for comment.
Completion is scheduled for the first of November so that construction crews can begin clean-up procedures inside the center, Larios said. This way University employees would be able to move their equipment into the center the week before Thanksgiving.
The interior portion of the center spans about 16,000 square feet and will consist of three conference rooms, 14 offices, a 116-seat auditorium, a break room, a mechanical room, bathrooms, two janitor dens, several display rooms and exhibit lounges. Larios said.

versity more than $800,000, Larios said.
Crews have recently been working on extending a high-voltage electrical line through the parking lot. New curbs and gutters, lighting, steps and walkways to the center and a front porch for the center will keep crews busy in the next few weeks, Riat said.
The exterior portion of the project cost the University about $283,600, he said. Bids for the project originally exceeded the project budget, so measures were taken to reduce the cost of the project. Riat said.
According to the University of Kansas profiles as compiled by the Office of Institutional Research, the project will cost about $1,550,000.

Reggae radio host really Chicago native
By Augustus Anthony Plaxxa
Kansan staff writer
Despite being a Caucasian from Chicago, Ryan Sturch has believed for years that there was some rasta in his soul.
Sturch's voice, which sounds Jamaican, can be heard on 90.7 KJHK from 4 to 6 p.m. during the reggae show "Irie FM" on Saturday nights.
Reggae is a popular music of Jamaican origin with a strongly accentuated beat.
"If you were to just listen to the show, and you never met me, you would think that I was Jamaican," said Sturch, a senior.
Craig Martin, professor of biology, said that he thought that Sturch was Jamaican the first time he listened to Sturch's show in June.
"I thought for the first time in 15 years, there was actually a Jamaican doing the Reggae show for KJHK," Martin said.
Martin wanted to meet him, so he visited him at the Ramada Inn, 2222 W. Sixth St., where Sturch spins regae records from 9 p.m. to close Thursday nights.
He said that he was surprised to find out that Sturch wasn't Jamaican.
Sturch, who is known on his show as "Roots Ryan and the Serious Sturch Signal," was introduced to the Jamaican culture when he and his family vacationed there when he was
4 years old. When he was 11 years old, he started to pick up on the Jamaican language and developed a love for Jamaican music.
"Everywhere you go in Jamaica, you hear music no matter if it's morning, day or night." Sturch said.
"I think there is a big Lawrence scene, but I don't think I have tapped into it yet," Sturch said.
Sturch said that although a reggae scene existed in Lawrence, there wasn't a music forum that compared to the scene in Jamaica.
Sturch said the amount of listeners that called up during the show varied each week. He said the most calls he had ever received was 19, but there had also been days when he received no calls.
He said that the amount of calls a disc jockey received during a night was the only way to gauge the amount of listeners.
Sturch said that he tried to bring some of the Jamaican culture and atmosphere to his show.
"Itry to spread a positive message of Jamaican culture," he said.
Sturch said that he had two sayings that he used during his show: "I'm jammir' down excessive amounts of niceness" and "Unifying Lawrence through reggae music. When me done, Lawrence become one."
After graduation, Sturch plans to apply to law school, but if he is offered a job disc jockeying, he will pursue it.
Cliché-filled formula for SLAM fizzles
Bv Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Note: In addition to his duties as the Kansan movie critic, Doherty also dabbles in espionage for the CIA. In 1997, he secretly observed a meeting in Hollywood about the prison-poetry drama SLAM, which was then in development. The following is a transcript of the conversation between studio heads.
Studio president: (coughing) But not everyone is aware of Pauly Shore's emotional depth. That's the audience we've got to pull in.
Studio president; Eh?
Junior executive: Right on. I was thinking that we could run Pauly's movie on a double bill with SLAM.
Junior executive:(sound of tie loosening) SLAM. It's a harrowing, gritty urban tale about a young man who uses the magic of poetry to survive in the violent prisons of Washington, D.C.

been smoking?
Junior executive: Well, it's not so much poetry. Heck, it just sounds like that confounded rap music the kids like so much these days.
Studio president: (unintelligible)
Junior executive: Sir?
Studio president I said, what about that urban angle? Boyz N the Hood, Menace II Society — all that stuff was big in the early '90s.
Junior executive: That was our assessment, too. But the director, Marc Levin, absolutely sold us with his story pitch. He told us that it would be like Shawshank Redemption meets
Studio president: I like it. But will women go see it?
Malcolm X.
Junior executive: Yes. Although the main character Ray, played by poet Saul Williams, is a drug dealer and hangs out with gangbangers, he's sensitive. In prison, he catches the eye of a young female English teacher. Naturally, we're going to beef up that romance.
Flunky intern: Wait, doesn't a romance seem kinda out of place for this kind of story?
(10 seconds of silence accompanied by coughing.) Studio president: So, tell me about the movie's look. Are we going to give SLAM the "Oliver Stone" treatment — lots of crazy camera angles and kooky lenses?
Junior executive: Nail on the head, boss. When the audience sees this movie, we want them to feel like they're watching a super-big rap video.
Studio president: Guys, you're doing a bang-up job with this movie SLAM. Is it too soon to talk to McDonald's about a corporate tie-in?
(Meeting concludes.)

Pleasantville blasts present into the past
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
Ozzie and Harriet fans ought to avoid Pleasantville unless they want to watch their beloved "50s sitcoms receive a good drubbing.
The rest of us, however, can delight in this clever satire about the "perfect" decade in which Ike was in the White House, and people used phrases such as "swell" and "keen."
Pleasantville excels at peeling back the decade's picket fences and manicured lawns, revealing the fears and racism lying underneath. Though it never loses its comic spirit, this could go down as 1998's most cynical film.
The movie was directed by Gary Ross, whose scripts for Big and Dave focused on ordinary guys placed in extraordinary circumstances. Pleasantville continues this theme, telling the story of two '90s siblings, David (Tobey Maguire) and Jennifer (Reese Witherspoon) who find themselves sucked into the world of "Pleasantville," an Elisen-hower era sitcom.
David, who thrives on late-night marathons of TV reruns, is overjoyed at being able to act out some of the show's memorable episodes. He takes a job with Mr. Johnson (Jeff Daniels) at the neighborhood soda fountain. All the players on the basketball team shoot perfect free throws. Dad (William H. Macy) and Mom (Joan Allen) send him off to school each morning with a Everest-size mountain of cholesterol-soaked flapbacks.
But Jennifer, a chain-smoking teen in tight skirts, has difficulty fitting in with her classmates, who
PLEASANTVILLE

****1/2 out of ****

answer to names such as Betty Jean and Mary Sue. Unable to keep her libido under wraps, Jennifer seduces the captain of the basketball team during a trip to Lovers' Lane, the local "holding hands" roost for teens.
From this point, Pleasantville begins to behave like a colorized Ted Turner movie that's stuck in reverse. As the '90s sensibilities of Jennifer and David begin to infect the town, colors gradually seep into the previously black-and-white landscape and its citizens.
The town elders, led by city official Big Bob (J.T. Walsh), resist the Technicolor invasion. Here, the movie turns dark as divisions rise between people who are "normal" and those who are "colored."
While making a plea for diversity, Pleasantville is sure to infuriate some for the thinly-disguised contempt it holds for its characters. When faced with unusual circumstances, the citizens respond with hatred and, in some cases, violence.
But scenes in which a gang trashes Mr. Johnson's soda fountain for its "colored" artwork should remind anyone of similar, real-life acts of hatred that erupted in the South during the push for civil rights legislation.
Thoughtful, engaging and consistently funny, *Pleasantville* is not to be missed.

Players dream about making the big plays

Kansan sportswriter
Just imagine Memorial Stadium on a crisp October Saturday. You're waiting for the snap of the ball. The cornerback is playing soft man-to-man coverage, and you know you can blow right by him.
As the center snaps the ball, you are flying hell-bent for the goal line. The quarterback launches a deep pass just as you make your break to the post. touchdown Jaya hawks!
To the average football fan, the only preparation that goes into catching a pass is practicing for the end zone dance in the intramural game. For Termaine Fulton, Michael Chandler and the other Kansas receivers, readiness could mean the difference between a score and an interception.
"First of all, when you get in the huddle, you've got to wait for Zac (Wegner, Kansas quarterback) to call the play," Fulton said. "Then, you've got to figure your responsibility and what you are supposed to do. Then you go out there, and the first thing is to run your route and get open. After that, you just catch the ball and go from there."
Linebackers and safety always look to crush receivers who don't see them coming.
"There is no preparation for coming over the middle," Chandler said. "You've almost got to be out of your mind sometimes because those linebackers are a lot bigger than you are."
Fulton said that when he was running into the thick of a defense, he expected to take a shot.
"I try to run every route the same," Fulton said. "If you get hit, you get hit. Just as long as you catch the ball, it was worth it."
Darrell Wyatt, the Kansas wide receivers coach and offensive coordinator, said it was essential to get production out of the position.
"We're a team that likes to throw the ball," Wyatt said. "The kids know it's their job to go out and make plays on Saturday."
And big plays are what Chandler wants.
"I think it's most wide receivers dream to totally humiliate the guy at the line, when you come off the ball, and you're just wide open for a long touchdown pass," Chandler said.

Clean Sweep

NEW YORK
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — How appropriate—a sweep. What else could it be for a New York Yankees team that is surely one of the greatest in baseball history.
Andy Pettitte and the Yankees put the finishing touch on their most dominant season by beating the San Diego Padres 3-0 last night for a record 24th World Series championship.
It was New York's second title in three years and its first sweep since 1950. The Game 4 victory gave the Yankees 125 wins — a total that ranks right up there with all the other big numbers put up in baseball this year. Their 114 regular-season victories were the most ever for a champion.
Members of the New York Yankees celebrate following their 3-0 victory in Game 4 of the World Series against the San Diego Padres at Qualcomm Park in San Diego, Calif. The Yankees swept the series 4-0.

And it was a tribute to a team vastly different from all those other pinstriped winners. Without a Ruth, DiMaggio or Mantle among them—no certain Hall of Famers and no one even elected to start in the All-Star game this season—these Yankees posted a .714 winning percentage, the best in the majors since their Murderer's Row club of 1927.
Pattettie shut out San Diego into the eighth inning, while the Yankees hitters did just enough to bring down ace Kevin Brown.
Bernie Williams, perhaps plays his last game for New York, broke a scoreless tie with an RBI chopper in the sixth. In the seventh, Series MVP Scott Brosius singled home a run and surprising rookie Ricky Ledee hit a sacrifice fly.
The Padres tried to rally in the eighth, when Tony Gwynn's eight hit of the Series finished Pettitte. A single by Ken Cammini off Mariano Rivera loaded the bases with two outs, but Jim Leyritz, a postseason hero in the past for the Yankees and San Diego, flouted out to Williams.

The sweep was the first since Cincinnati upset Oakland in 1990 and was the Yankees' seventh.
Pettitte won just six days after his father underwent heart bypass surgery, allowing five hits in 71/3 innings.
Plus, perhaps the Yankees had something else going for them — maybe inspiration from slugger Darryl Strawberry, out because of colon cancer. All the Yankees had his No. 39 embroidered on their caps.

Kansas City Star sports columnist suspended
Whitlock: Reportedly taunted Patriots fans at game.
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jason Whitlock, sports columnist for The Kansas City Star, has been suspended following an incident at the Kansas City Chiefs-New England Patriots game on Oct. 11.
Whitlock, whose aggressive style has attracted a wide readership since he joined the newspaper in 1994, reportedly taunted fans during the game in Foxboro, Mass.
"We don't condone this type of behavior," Rick Vacek, the Star's
assistant managing editor for sports, said in a statement Wednesday. "We deeply regret that this incident occurred, and Jason has been suspended pending further review."
Several attempts by The Associated Press to reach Whitlock by telephone at his home were unsuccessful.
Whitlock's column on the game, in which he made no mention of the incident, appeared the next day. His column has not appeared in the Star since then.
KMBC-TV, the ABC affiliate in Kansas City, Mo., said in a news story
"We don't condone this type of behavior."
Rick Vacek
Star's assistant managing editor for sports
Tuesday night that Whitlock would no longer do weekly commentaries for the station until the matter was resolved.
Eyewitnesses said Patriots fans seated just outside the enclosed press box began taunting the visiting media during the game and Whitlock
responded by holding up handwritten signs, at least one of which insulted quarterback Bledsoe and the team, according to Sports Illustrated.
After fans became agitated, stadium security guards entered the press box and stopped Whitlock.
Steve Schoenfeld, of the Arizona Republic and president of the Pro Football Writers of America, said his organization was satisfied with the Star's action. "We applaud what they have done," he said.
Star executives declined to comment beyond Vacek's written statement.

KU basketball brings inquiry; K-State success draws dread
I can't believe I'm preparing my final
Jeez, how scary is that?
After next Monday, I officially will be done with enrollment at the University of Kansas.
No more add/drop cards. No more dean's stamps. No more closed class openers. No more of those nutty, 1970's computers that look like they were rejects from the movie *Tron*. No more.
Man, I never thought I could get so nostalgic about something I so vehemently curse
twice a year. I guess as you get closer to graduation, you start to notice all the little things that won't be around next year.
So as I try to figure out how to avoid that final math requirement one more semester, I'll give you some items to chew on ...

With the end of the Vaughn-Pollard-LaFrentz-Pierce era, it will mark the first time in five years Coach Roy has fielded a relatively unknown commodity.
Sure, they are going to be good, but unlike past years, the question is: How good? Will they go deep into the tournament or will they struggle to win the Big 12? We shall wait and see.
I didn't make it to Friday's Late Night with Roy Williams, but from what I've heard, the fans seemed pleased. With so many young players, I'll be very curious to see who Williams puts in the starting lineup. The real question seems to be who will fill Pierce's shoes at a forward.

■ I'm starting to get the sickening feeling that Kansas State might just beat Nebraska when they meet in Manhattan on Nov. 14.
At the beginning of the season I figured the power kitties would lose sometime before their big showdown with the 'Huskers. As that hope began to fade, I turned to Nebraska to put its annual stop to the nightmare we know as Kansas State football. But now, it seems all hope may be lost.
After watching the Wildcats and the Huskers several times this season, Kansas State looks like a sharper, more cohesive unit. Plus, with more on the line than the "Huskers, the Wildcats will have plenty of motivation."
If the Wildcats beat Nebraska, stay undefeated and play for the National Championship ... well, I don't believe I can think of a more utterly depressing thought.

Completely unnecessary Oklahoma update: With another expected loss to Oklahoma State this weekend, the Sooner football program will continue to dive deeper into the abyss of college football obscurity.
With fans and alumni unhappy, look for head coach John Blake to get the axe at the end of the season — a move that wouldn't be all that surprising.
It is Blake's possible replacement that should raise a few ewbrows.

Kansan sportswriter
When the decision to choose a college came around for Katie Lents, she had two things in mind: a big university and something close to home.
That made the University of Kansas an easy decision for Lents, who is now a sophomore midfielder on the Kansas soccer team.
"Ihad looked at Rockhurst, Baker and some East Coast schools, but I put those aside because I was content to stay near Kansas City," she said. "It's a new program here, and I wanted to play somewhere that I felt I could make an impact."
Lents graduated in 1997 from St. Thomas Aquinas, a nationallyacclaimed power in boys' and girls' soccer. She was a four-year letter winner and a three-time state champion. Her senior season, she helped lead her team to 19-2 record.
Last year, however, Lents had to adjust to a team that isn't known as a national or even regional soccer power. The Jayhawks finished 7-12 in 1997, a difference of 12 wins for Lents.
"I wasn't like, 'this team is bad,' but it was tough going from 19-2 to 7-12-1," she said. "It's been real depressing at times, but this year there has been a lot more unity than last year. We all have respect for each other as players, and we know that whoever is out there can get the job done."
Lents joins midfielder Dani DeGuerre and defender Kylie Watts as the only players on the roster that graduated from a Kansas high school. Kansas coach Dan Magner said that it was important to try to get in-state players to come to Kansas.
"We are certainly checking out and actively pursuing Kansas players now," he said. "It's our hope each year to attract the top players in the state. As the level of play in the state rises, you'll see the addition of more and more Kansas players to our roster."
Magnier also said that Lents brought plenty of good things to his young team.
and serve some excellent long balls Her sense of humor isn't bad either."
"Katie brings lots of enthusiasm and an excellent work rate," he said. "She has the ability to win the ball in the air
Lents attributes her soccer talent to her family, particularly her older brothers, Rick and Josh, Josh Lents, another soccer standout from St. Thomas Aquinas, plays soccer at the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
Katie Lents said that she never felt the pressure of following in her brothers' footsteps or playing in their shadows.
"Josh always brought me up when I was down in high school, and playing after Rick and Josh did have that big of an effect," she said. "I know that I wouldn't be playing soccer had it not been for my family. We used to play some intense soccer games in the backyard."
Although her family was a big influence on her playing soccer, Lents credits two club coaches, Ramon Tau and Dave Morrow, with fine-tuning her skills.
"Ramon coached me from fourth grade to my sophomore year in high school, and he had the best practices," she said. "He taught me everything skills-wise and how much fun soccer could be. The best thing about Ramon was that he would practice with us.
"Dave coached me my junior and senior years, and he did more tactical stuff with us, like showing us where to make runs on the field. We never had the same practice with Dave."
Another thing Lents has had to adjust to is the grueling schedule of being a student-athlete at the NCAA division-I level.
"It's easier to do everything in the season," she said. "I have to budget my time during the season. It gets tough with all the homework and missing classes for games, plus trying to have a social life. Missing class is tough, though. If you show an interest in classes and have a good attitude with the teachers, they are understanding."
Women's team works to create a new offense
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The season is just four practices old, but the Kansas women's basketball team already has started implementing a new offense.
The motion-style offense is something coach Marian Washington has looked at for a few years and has decided will fit well with her team this year.
Center Nakia Sanford said, "It gives us a little more freedom. It's going to be a lot harder to guard."
If that proves to be true, it could be because of the team's much-improved depth and quickness this season.
Guard Jennifer Jackson said, "We have the players to do it with this year. We have all five starters back, and we'll have more players off the bench, so we can do more."
Last year, just eight players averaged double-figure minutes. This year, five newcomers join a roster that returns entirely intact, with the exception of Koya Scott, who averaged 1 point and 13 minutes per game last season.
The team will add some size with 6-6 center Kristin Geoffroy and 6-0 forward Brooke Reves, and quickness in guards Selena Scott, Dameyia Stepney and Katie Hannon.
PLEASE ADD YOUR NAME TO THIS POST.
Sanford: Says new offense will be harder to guard.
The new offense is designed to tap into the deeper roster and quicker perimeter players.
"It should enable us to get more contribution from more players," said assistant coach Maggie Mahood. "We need to get more production from our post players, and this will enable us to do that."
Post players will have the opportunity to take advantage of match-up problems that the offense creates.
"What they do is the post players set a screen, and then they find the closest defender and post that person up," Mahood said.
The coaches are looking for Sanford to score more this season.
"Nakia's a great defensive player, but she's never really looked to score," Mahood said. "We need her to be a presence in the post, offensively and defensively."
Sanford said that she concentrated on offense during the off-season and that she was confident she would be able to take on the additional scoring load.
Plus, she has her favorite post-coach back this season. Pam De Costa. De Costa, an assistant coach at Kansas during Sanford's freshman year, spent the past two seasons as an assistant at Oklahoma.
Kansas will continue preseason practices until playing its second exhibition game Nov. 11. Then the team will begin preparing for its season-opener against nationally-ranked North Carolina Nov. 15. The game is part of the State Farm Tip-Off Classic in West Lafayette, Ind.

'Huskers to face tough Tigers team
Last year's catch has added fuel to Missouri's fire
The Associated Press
Frank Solich gets a sideline view of Missouri this time.
Now, Solich is making all the calls for No. 7 Nebraska (6-1, 2-1 Big 12), which plays host to No. 19 Missouri (5-1, 3-0) at Memorial Stadium on Saturday.
Last season, Solich celebrated "The Catch" upstairs in the coaches' booth, hugging and high-fiving with other Nebraska assistant coaches after Matt Davison's remarkable, last-second touchdown grab forced overtime, and the Huskers went on to beat Missouri 45-38.
"Call it a miracle or whatever, but they made it happen," Solich said earlier this season. "It was a tremendously exhausting game."
"To us, the play's history," Solich says. "It can't win us anymore bali games."
Missouri coach Larry Smith tries his best to forget, too.
"That game is over, it's behind us," Smith said. "The call, the catch, all that is done. That's not what we're thinking about."
But Smith added, "I use this game in just one sense. We know how we played, we know we played with
That was then.
them nose to nose."
This year, the Tigers are better—and the Huskers aren't.
The coaching transition from Tom Osborne to Solich may have been a smooth one, but Nebraska's feared running attack is not so scary anymore. And the defense, among one of the hardest hitting around, doesn't swarm the way it has in national title seasons past.
Before a 41-0 rout of Kansas last week, the Cornhuskers were

stunned by Texas A&M 28-11 after barely beating Oklahoma State 24-17. Against the Aggies and Cowboys, the Hackers went out
Nebraska ran well against the weaker Jayhawks, piling up 466 yards to move into fourth-place nationally at 270.4 per game. But Nebraska isn't playing Kansas anymore.
Huskers were out rushed 434-214.
The Tigers, led by Devin West and option quarterback Corby Jones, are fifth nationally in rushing at 266.3 yards per game. West is still the nation's second-leading rusher at 175.1 yards per game even after being held to 98 yards last week against Oklahoma.
As if Missouri needed any more incentive against Nebraska, how's this: The Tigers have lost 19 in a row to the Huskers.

Davenport is 7-2 as a starter, his only losses coming against Florida State last season and the Miami
CHAPEL HILL, N.C. — North Carolina quarterback Oscar Davenport has been suspended from Saturday's game against Wake Forest for violating unspecified team rules.
Coach Carl Torbush also said Tuesday that offensive lineman Jon Hall will remain suspended for the rest of the season. Hall, a fourth-year junior guard, pleaded no contest to simple misdemeanor assault involving a female student at North Carolina.
Davenport was injured on the fourth play of the Tar Heels' season-opening loss to Miami of Ohio.
The senior starter missed the rest of that game and the following week's loss to Stanford.
"It's unfortunate to have to do this, but the team has rules by which all players must abide, regardless of one's position on the team," Torbush said. "I'm disappointed for our team and for Oscar, but it's a situation we have to deal with and continue to prepare for our game with Wake Forest."
Freshman Ronald Curry will start for the Tar Heels (2-3, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) against Wake Forest (3-3, 2-1).
game on Sept. 5. Davenport failed to complete both of those games due to injuries. Curry is 0-2 as a starter, losing to Stanford and Georgia Tech this season while subbing for the injured Davenport.
"Oscar's season is not over," Torbush said. "He'll be allowed to practice this week and is eligible to return to game action on Oct. 17."
game action against Florida State" on Oct. 31.
NC
Hall was ordered to pay court costs in Orange District Court on Oct. 9. He started at right guard in the Miami game but was suspended the following week by Torbush after he was charged with misdemeanor assault.
Hall will not be allowed to practice with the team, but will remain on athletic scholarship, Torbush said. "In this instance, after hearing all the facts and allowing the case to be heard by the court, we believe it is in the best interest of the university, the athletic program and Jon Hall for him to not rejoin our team until next season."
"We do not want situations like this to occur ever, but if and when they do, we will deal with them as swiftly as we know all the facts and on an individual basis," Torbush said.

Gymnast Moceanu sues to separate from parents
HOUSTON — Gymnast Dominique Moceanu, a member of the 1996 U.S. Olympic team that won a team gold medal, is suing for independence from her parents, alleging that they squandered her fortune and oppressed her for years.
The Associated Press
Moceanu, 17, filed a state lawsuit in Houston Monday asking to be declared a legal adult so her parents can't control her or her money, the Houston Chronicle reported yesterday.
A judge signed a temporary restraining order, saying Dumitru and Camelia Moceanu must stay away from the gymnast, who ran away from their Harris County home Sunday, until a Nov. 11 hearing.
Dumitru Moceanu, who opened a gym last year, with some of his daughter's earnings, declined comment to the newspaper. His wife couldn't be reached for comment.
According to Dominique Moceanu's lawsuit, her father has wasted money she earned since turning professional at age 10.
But she told the Chronicle Tuesday that the problem is about much more than money.
"I never had a childhood," said
"Ikill myself training and going to school, and what if he doing with my money? They haven't been working since 1996. Where does their income come from? Me."
Gymnast and member of 1996 U.S. Olympic team
Dominique Moceanu
Dominique Moceau, who added that her parents fueled her Olympic dream starting at age 3. "When I went to compete when I was young, I always was in fear because I would get yelled at by my father, and I would say to myself, 'I'm 13 years old, come on,'" she said.
"Instead of talking to me, they're always yelling with me, fighting with me.
"It always had to be about the gym," she said about her relationship with her parents. "I would think, 'Don't you guys know anything besides gymnastics? Can't we go out for ice cream? Can't you be my mom and dad instead of me being your business?'
The gymnast also told the newspaper her father has hit her "a couple of times."
The gymmast and her lawyer, Roy W. Moore, both declined to say how much money she has earned or how much
has been lost. But Moore said a trust that had been set up for her is all but gone.
"I kill myself training and going to school, and what is he doing with my money?" she said. "They haven't been working since 1996. Where does their income come from? Me."
Moore said the Moceanu couple, Romanian immigrants, have refused to answer their daughter's questions about where the money has gone.
The attorney said all Dominique Moecean must prove to gain legal adult status is that she is living away from home and can support herself. Then she will be able to demand an accounting of her money through legal channels, Moore said.
Dominique Moceauan said she has been hiding from her parents for the past few days, moving from house to house to stay with friends.
NFL team sued for hazing
New Orleans Saints may be anything but
The Associated Press
LA CROSE, Wis. — The New Orleans Saints are being sued by a former player who contends he and other rookies were injured during training-campazing.
The lawsuit was filed Tuesday by Jeff Danish in U.S. District Court in Madison and names the team, six players and an assistant coach as defendants.
The suit says the Saints knew hazing was planned by veterans for rookies because a player posted a notice about a meeting attended by defensive line coach Walt Corey.
The players on the suit are Andre Royal, Troy Davis, Brian Jones, Isaac Davis, Keith Mitchell and Brady Smith.
Rookies said that they were hit with a bag of coins. Tight end Cam Cleeland was left with blurred vision in one eye and center Andy McCullough with a bloody rose.
The rookies with pillowcases over their heads ran a gauntlet between lines of veterans Aug. 20, the final day of training by the Saints at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.
Danish, a 23-year-old defensive tackle from Richmond, N.Y., broke his hand in a dormitory window and required 14 stitches to his left arm and hand, the lawsuit says. He said he was hit with a bag of coins and was punched, kicked and elbowed.
The Saints said in September they were unable to identify the 20 to 25 players who formed the gauntlet and had not been able to fine or punish them.
Saints general manager Bill Kuharich said at the time that "while everyone understands this incident was dangerous and in violation of club policy, we see no further action that can be taken by the club based on the investigation."
NFL commissioner Paul Tagliahue said Sept. 19 the league found "no basis for the commissioner to take league disciplinary action."
Danish said the hazing violated NFL regulations against physical abuse of players. His lawsuit also alleges violations of federal, state and local laws.
Despite injuries from the hazing, it says. Danish was required to continue practices, then was waived before his injuries could heal.
His lawsuit seeks $650,000 in damages for lost wages, impaired future earnings capacity, pain and suffering, humiliation and loss of enjoyment of life.

WELCOME TO ALUMNI
Student and alumni organizations contribute to Homecoming Day festivities
By Julio M. Sachs
Kanson staff writer
Kansan staff writer
There is more to homecoming than the football game.
Several groups at the University of Kansas have planned festivities for the upcoming weekend, all of which are open to students.
The weekend will start at 2:20 p.m. today with the annual homecoming parade and pep rally, which is sponsored by Student Union Activities, the Student Alumni Association and the Board of Class Officers.
Before the parade there will be a pep rally in front of Wescoe Hall, said Sue Buckley, program manager of the Kansas and Burge Unions.
Either Chancellor Robert Hemenway or Provost David Shulenberger will speak at the rally. Football coach Terry Allen also will participate in the rally.
The parade will start at the Chi Omega fountain and travel down Jayhawk Boulevard to the Kansas Union.
The alumni homecoming picnic also is scheduled for this weekend. It will be from 4 to 6 p.m. tomorrow.
Cost for the picnic is $10 per person
"It's a place to meet and greet alumni," said Donna Neuner, director of membership services for the KU Alumni Association
University residence halls also arranged festivities for the weekend.

Although many events are planned for the weekend, many students still are anticipating the homecoming game.
"I'm going to the football game on Saturday, that's for sure," said Ruth Yorke, Overland Park freshman.
Nicole Mason, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said that her plans for the weekend
depended on whether her parents went out of town.
"If they don't, I'm going to the game," Mason said. "If they do, I'm going home."
Also in conjunction with Alcohol Responsibility Week, Bacchus, Gamma and AURH will hold a free tailgate party tomorrow that will feed up to 1,000 people. Timm said that the tailgate party would be held on the south side of the stadium on the Campanile Hill.

Photographers fly high to catch campus beauty
Two photographers will circle the University of Kansas campus in helicopters today and Sunday afternoon.
At 3:30 p.m. today, David McKinney, a University Relations staff member, will photograph the University from a helicopter, trying to capture the beauty of the campus architecture and the colorful leaves on campus trees.
The helicopter will circle the campus for an hour.
"Capturing the beauty of this campus at the peak of its fall beauty is important as we attempt to market the University to students," said Tom Hutton, director of University Relations. "It's one thing to talk about the beauty of Mount Oread. See it to be believe it."
The attractiveness of the University's campus has been cited by National Geographic and the Fiske Guide to Colleges.
At 3 p.m. Sunday, Frank Bartell, University Relations electronic media coordinator, will assist in videotaping the campus as well as Edwards Campus, formerly known as the Regents Center, in Overland Park and the KU Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan.

Enrollment to begin for spring semester
Seniors and degree seeking graduate students will begin enrolling today at 151 Strong Hall.
From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., the Enrollment Center will begin student enrollment for Spring 1999.
Seniors will enroll until Oct. 30, followed by juniors, sophomores and freshmen for the next three weeks, said Kim O'Bryan, public service administrator in enrollment services.
Students should have received a permit to enroll in the mail that lists their assigned appointment.
Appointments are based on rotation and are computer generated.
Once that appointment has passed,
the student could enroll at any time.
Open enrollment and Add/Drop will begin Nov. 19.
By Nov. 23, a $25 fee will go into effect for students who enroll late.
O'Bryon reminded students not to for get about the options table, which is outside the Enrollment Center.
The options table will offer services such as semester bus passes.
Emily Vinzant, a Wichita sophomore who is scheduled to enroll Nov. 9, said enrollment was not a big deal.
"I've never really had any problems with enrollment," she said.
"So I'm not really dreading it. I'm probably the only person on campus who isn't bothered by it," Vinzant said.

Sunday gains hour during time change
It is almost time to turn back the clock.
At 2 a.m. Sunday, daylight savings time will begin.
In many cases, this extra hour will be a welcome extension for students.
Chris Ward, Columbia, S.C., freshman, said he would use the extra hour to stay out longer after attending the homecoming game.
Another student said she planned to use the additional hour academically.
"I plan to study more," said Shanetta March, Auroa, Colora, freshman.
Although most of the United States will be pushing clocks back one hour, in some states and territories, the time will not change.
Residents of Arizona, Hawaii and parts of Indiana in the Eastern Time Zone choose not to observe daylight savings time. Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands and America Somoa also will not be changing.
On April 4, the country will once again spring forward.

KU student robbed outside of dance club
A KU student was robbed early yesterday morning when he was walking out of a local exotic dance club.
The student was in the parking lot of The Outhouse, 1823 E. 1500 Road, and had just pulled his money from his pocket when he was approached by four men, the Douglas County Sheriff's Office reported.
One of the men took $60 out of the student's hand, and the four men then drove back toward Lawrence.
Sheriff's officers said the man had taken the money out of his pocket to make sure it was still there.
The men were last seen driving a Ford sports utility vehicle.
The student said that he did not know any of the men and that they had not used a weapon during the robbery.
There are no suspects.
NATION
An administrative complaint filed Wednesday by the Agriculture Department accuses the Bentonville, Ark-based retailer of 156 counts of violating federal regulations that govern the importation of Mexican avocados. The company will have an opportunity to present its position in an administrative hearing and could be finned up to
$1,000 on each count, officials said.
WASHINGTON — Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is accused of transporting hundreds of cartons of Mexican avocados to states that did not have federal approval to sell the avocados.
$1,000 on each count, officials said. Company representative Betsy Reithemeyer said Wal-Mart had been working with the agency since it became aware of the situation in March.
"We would never knowingly or willfully do anything to violate the USDA regulations," she said.
USDA alleges that from late 1997 to early this year Wal-Mart moved 668 cartons of avocados from selected states to unapproved states.
Sudan floods endanger 120,000 starving people
WORLD
The hardest-hit areas were also the worst ones suffering from the famine, said Lindsay Davies, U.N. World Food Program representative.
NAIROBI, Kenya — Heavy rains in war ravaged southern Sudan flooded homes and crops in low-lying areas, endangering more than 120,000 people already suffering from famine, the United Nations said yesterday.
More than 1.5 million people have died in fighting and famine from the 15-year war. Rebels in the mostly Christian and animist south are battling with government troops from the Muslim north.
Davies said the majority of the 46,000 people in the area already receiving food assistance had lost their meager crops to the floods and now were moving to higher ground.
Another 80,000 people were affected by heavy rains in southeastern Sudan.
Renewed fighting between Sudan People's Liberation Army rebels and government forces in the area has made the situation worse.
China refuses to bow to human rights issues
BEIJING - China ended its first human rights conference on a defiant note, signaling it would not embrace Western definitions of civil liberties, state media reported yesterday.
In a speech ending the two-day conference Wednesday, the Chinese government's most senior spokesman, Zhao Qizheng, said Beijing would follow its own interpretations of human rights.
While acknowledging the universality of rights, Zhao said the rights to economic survival and development came first, according to accounts of his speech carried by the Xinhua News Agency and China Daily.
Zhao's speech underscored that China's policies have changed little, despite its greater willingness to discuss human rights problems and sign key U.N. rights treaties.
The human rights conference was the first international academic conference China has sponsored. More than 80 delegates from 27 countries attended, but no known Chinese dissidents were allowed to attend.

KU students, faculty discuss intellectual property policy
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
University faculty and students discussed the Kansas Board of Regents proposed policy about intellectual property yesterday at the University Senate Meeting.
Intellectual property rights determine what ownership of properties — including software, scholarly and artistic work, and student academic creations — the University retains or leaves with the creator.
The meeting, held in the Kansas Union's Alderson Auditorium, began when Provost David Shulenburger outlined six proposed changes. The Regents will act on the proposal at the November board meeting but gave each of the state's six public universities until Nov. 1 to discuss and suggest any changes.
Bob Basow, University Senate President, said the Regents' policy deliberately was made vague by the Regents so that schools of varying size could make the policy fit school-specific needs.
"We have to come up with our own plan for this University." Bassow said.
Shulenburger said that one of the changes that could be made by an individual university was to alter a $10,000 limit on the projected market value of computer software that a faculty member could retain.
"We are not free to reduce it, but we can set a higher threshold." he said.
Students and faculty members at the meeting raised ideas about the policy such as creating a task force outside of the governance realm to develop the University's extended policy, clarifying the mediated course-related material to exclude lectures from University ownership and clarifying the ownership of adapted or online courses.
Shulenburger said that many of these issues could be dealt with by a local policy, which would be created after the Regents approve a universal policy.

Not royalty, but heads above rest
By Angela Johnson Kansan staff writer
This weekend's football game against the University of Colorado will include homecoming festivities, but don't expect the students honored at halftime to be wearing a crown or a sash.
Two University of Kansas stu
dents will receive the Excellence in Community, Education and Leaders' h i p (Ex.C.E.L. A) Awards for homecoming 1998, presented by Student Union Activities and

the Board of Class Officers.
Karen Isley, Sylvania, Ohio,
senior, and Kevin Yoder, Hutchinson
senior, were selected from
among 10 finalists. Each will
receive $500.
Isley said the award denotes the positive ideas of homecoming.
"The old image is a girl in a gown and a big crown, but people don't need to see that now," she said.
The Ex.C.E.L. Award was established in 1991 to recognize students for achievement, rather than popularity as reflected in the vote for homecoming king and queen. Finalists were chosen based on leadership, involvement in the University and Lawrence communities, scholarship and the ability to work with students and organizations.
Isley, who has been president of Sigma Delta Tau sorority and the Phi Alpha Delta pre-law society, said she had admired previous winners of the Ex C.E.L. Award.
"I hope that I can set an example for future winners of the award," she said. "I always feel I can do a little more."
Yoder, the student body president, did not expect to have so many leadership positions.
"When I came to KU, I just wanted to be involved in what I

It's exciting that

so much."
Chancellor Robert Hemen-
way said he had worked with Isley and Yoder and was impressed with their leadership.
PETER HAYES
Yoder: Didn't expect to be so involved.
He said both had earned the award because of their commitment not only to the University, but also the whole community.
Hemenway, Jeff LaCroix, SUA vice president, and Molly Cunningham, senior class president, will present the awards.
"It was a really difficult decision, but the people we chose did exemplify the criteria," LaCròix said.
Black Student Union picks royalty
By Steph Brewer Kanson staff writer
All hail the king—and queen
Sherree Strong, St. Louis freshman, and Jonathan Macklin, Kansas City, Kan., senior, were named the Black Student Union's homecoming queen and king yesterday.
Strong and Macklin were nominated to the homecoming court by the BSU general assembly along with about 25 other BSU members, said Tanisha Jones, BSU's student senator.
"Ive never won anything like this,
so it's kind of cool." Strong said.
Natalie Lucas, BSU programs co-chairwoman, said candidates needed to exhibit leadership skills and belong to BSU to be nominated.
To win, candidates had to solicit $1 votes. The candidates who raised the most money won. The money will be used to pay for the annual Black Student Government Conference in February at the University of Colorado.
Jones, Wichita sophomore, said the candidates raised about $700.
"For our first fund-raiser of the year, I think we did pretty well," she said.
Strong and Macklin won free trips to the conference and will participate in the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program, said Lucas, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore.
BSU has had a homecoming king and queen in the past, said Martha Joanah. BSU programs chairwoman.
Jones said BSU wanted a king and queen because, at historically Black colleges, homecoming was a bigger event than it is at the University of Kansas.
"For us,homecoming has seemed so minimal in past years," Jones said.
Rally empowers women
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
Females speak out against violence
About 200 men and women gathered last night to protest violence and assert women's right to walk the streets safely at the annual Womyn Take Back the Night rally.
"We have been told since childhood to be afraid of the night, to dread the lengthening of shadows at the end of the day, to stay in our homes, to draw our curtains, to sleep lightly and wait," said Stacey Mann, co-chair of Women's Empowerment Action Coalition in a speech given at the women's circle.
"Tonight we gather to say we will not stay inside,we will not stay silent."she said.
The 11th annual Womyn Take Back the Night featured information tables for campus and community organizations from 5 to 7 p.m. Speeches and awards began at 7
p. m. A march down Massachusetts Street was followed by men's and women's circles to share their experiences.
The event was sponsored by the coalition, Women's Transitional Care Services and Rape Victim-Survivor Service. A sign-language interpreter signed all the speeches.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said it saddened her to see that society still was dealing with the issue of domestic and sexual violence. She said the march should be a reminder to women to speak out against these acts.
Chris Robinson, graduate teaching assistant in sociology has been the victim of domestic violence in a lesbian relationship.
"Violence occurs in our community as well," she said. "I'm not here to demonize her — she is a dear friend of mine. But I'm here to say it exists."
Julianne Donovan, Salma senior,
said that this was her third march
and that it provided her with a
sense of empowerment.

Journalism professors Bob Basow and Tom Volek returned from a recent trip to Croatia with a stronger vision of the University's role in strengthening international media.
In the Central European country, they offered sales and marketing training.
"We also helped them establish an independent TV and radio association so they can work together better," Volek said.
He said assistance was needed to establish profitable media in emerging democracies such as Croatia,
People in many of these places know how to report objectively, but without financial support, they can't do their job. Volek said.
The trip symbolized the journalism school's drive to form a self-funding Global Center for Marketing Communications and Journalism. The Kansas Board of Regents approved the center last week at its monthly meeting.
Now, Volek said, journalism faculty members will begin the quest to finance the project. The center will not use any University or state money.

KU football should not be given preferential treatment over arts
The new kickoff time for the Kansas vs. Colorado game has unfairly disadvantaged Murphy Hall. A remedy must be found.
Kickoff was changed from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. tomorrow to accommodate the Fox Network, which will televise the game. The change was announced one week ago and has fowled up Murphy Hall's plans. Murphy will lose its parking lot, making it difficult for people attending the 8 p.m. performance of "The Batting Cage" to park. The lot across from Murphy will be used Saturday by the Williams Fund, the athletic department's fundraising arm. Williams Fund members park in the lot and are shuttled to Memorial Stadium.
Murphy Hall would have allowed its patrons to park at the Lied Center and would have shuttled them to the theater. However, that is not possible. The Lied Center is playing host to a performance of "STOMP," so the Lied Center lot will not be an option.
This has left Murphy with no parking and the University Theater, which is presenting the play, is allowing patrons to exchange their tickets for
Murphy Hall will lose its parking to the Williams Fund on the last night of a play.
another performance. However, Saturday will be the last night the play is being performed.
The attention the football team brings to the University by being on television is important and benefits all students. But in this case, the Williams Fund, the University, the parking department and the Athletic Department need to work something out that allows Murphy to have the lot.
The Athletic Department had no choice in accepting the new start time. It was dictated by Fox, and the television contract allows Kansas little say in the matter. The Williams Fund also reserved the lot a long time in advance and has to pay the University for its use.
The problem is not specifically anyone's fault. However, these are the only groups that can solve the problem and if they do not, blame must be
placed on these groups. Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Athletic Director Bob Frederick, Williams Fund officials and Murphy Hall administrators should sit down today and find a way to give the theater parking. The Williams Fund should be willing to give the lot up. It is not the only lot they have reserved.
The Athletics Department and Williams Fund have always said athletics are not the most important activity at the University, just one of many wonderful events that occur on campus. But in this case, another activity is suffering because athletics are being regarded as more important.
If Murphy Hall decided days before a basketball game that it needed a lot that was reserved primarily for basketball fans, the Athletic Department and Williams Fund would not give it up. Murphy Hall should not have to give its lot, which needs to be used for the theater.
The students performing the play work just as hard as the athletes. The actors deserve an audience just as much as the football players.

Student volunteers make a difference
It is easy for student to dismiss opportunities to volunteer in the community. A bevy of time-related excuses tend to pop up: More time should be spent on homework; a job pays money for time spent, etc. Students just may not know what organizations to contact.
However, a student can make a difference by volunteering even if they feel that they cannot commit very much time.
Students should give their time on "Make a Difference Day" this Saturday.
Oct. 24 has been deemed "Make A Difference Day." The theme this year is "Share A Smile, Make A Smile." The East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Group, or EAKAN, is trying to bring in new volunteers —
both individually and through student associations - to help in the community.
It is up to students to set aside a weekend day or an afternoon a week to give food to the homeless, renovate a historic building, or spend time with a child as a Big Brother or Sister.
EAKAN provides the promotion and the resources for volunteering.

New Shepard, the University of Wyoming student who was beaten to death. They waved signs with their favorite message: "God Hates Fags."
I am a native of Kenya. I have lived in Kenya for 40 years and am the owner of a successful business. I am passionate about education and community development. I believe in making a difference in the lives of others. I am committed to providing high-quality education and opportunities for all children. I am also committed to promoting positive values and behaviors in my community. I am excited to be part of your team.
This sign actually means "Phelps, the self-appointed messenger of a god he has created in his own image and according to his own likeness, hates the people God has actually created." Confused about spirituality. Phelps has dedicated himself to a ministry of bigotry and hate. He can't stand people, even after they have died and relatives, friends and acquaintances are mourning. The Reverend claims that he is a Christian, a man of God following in the steps of Christ.
But what Christ?
During my lifetime, I have seen many things done in the name of Christ. These things have been so contrary even to the common sense of a child that I have decided to do my own research. To make sure I covered the problem from as many perspectives as possible, I have acquired seven Bibles in seven different languages to study for myself the life and teachings of Christ. I don't know about the Bible Phelps reads, but the Bibles that I read present a Christ who is very far from being a bigot. On the contrary, the Christ I have come to know is a Christ who embodied the very love of God so we could understand it. So deep is the love of Christ that Paul says it "passes all knowledge" (Ephesians 3:19).
To their threats, Christ responded: "The son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many" (Matthew 20:28). Then he described the things that people were hearing and seeing him do: "The blind see and the lame hear; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he who is not offended because of me" (Matthew 11:5-6).
Should I even bother to share what I have discovered about Christ? Just as Phelps has created a god in his own image, he has also created a Christ in his own image. In Phelps this popular saying is confirmed: "I have already made up my mind, don't confuse me with the facts."
But the leaders of the religious establishment in those days were offended because of Christ. They hated Christ because he loved the people they hated. They hated him so much that they crucified him, the equivalent of today's electrical chair or shooting squad. Capital punishment was reserved only for the most horrendous crimes, just as it is in our country today. But what crime did Christ commit?
Sometimes I wonder what would happen to Christ if he reappeared among us today. What would happen to him if he decided to appear in the form of a homosexual student at the University of Wyoming? I don't know. But my gut feeling is that he would be beaten to death. Then at his funeral, a Rev. Phelps from Topeka would lead a group of religious establishment bigots to picket with signs reading, "God Hates Fags."
English, let me share a few things. When Christ lived in Palestine 2000 years ago, the religious establishment had already decided how God should behave: He should hate the prostitutes, the sick, the tax collectors, the poor, the foreigners and the people who practiced other religions. The self-appointed keepers of the faith were so determined to have things their own way that they had bigotry written into the laws of the land and they put to death anyone who dared to oppose them or even suggest that they might be wrong.
But just in case I am mistaken about Phelps and he does read the same kind of Bible that I read in
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness." These truths are indeed self-evident to the people of good will. To the bigots, however, they seem to be meaningless.

Responsible behavior best solution for bars
Once again, complaints by people living near a few neighborhood bars have prompted city commissioners to review the status of such bars and their closing times.
At the center of the latest dispute is the fate of the The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St. The Hawk was granted a cereal-malt beverage license last January that allowed it to stay open until midnight. Later, it was granted a temporary drinking-establishment license. This type of license would normally allow a bar to stay open until 2 a.m., but The Hawk's temporary license restricted it to a midnight closing time. The latest controversy when city commissioners decided to consider granting The Hawk a 2 a.m. closing time. People who live near the bar have complained bitterly because they are tired of the late-night noise and problems with bar patrons who relieve themselves in public. These problems, they contend, have been going on for years.

opinion @ kansan.com
There are many reasons why these problems have lingered. For one thing, the police cannot sit and watch the bars that are most often the targets of complaints. They only can respond to complaints. Another problem is the increasing sophistication of fake IDs. In the past, the biggest problems were borrowed ID's and crude forgeries. Now, however, many fake ID's are virtually indistinguishable from the real ones because several ID machines have been stolen.
Another problem preventing a permanent solution is the cyclical nature of the complaints and remedies. If enough residents complain, or if the city commission starts to take action, the bar owners will make corrections that last for a while and then they will slack off when the furor dies down.
The problems can be resolved if the owners and patrons of problem bars simply would be more responsible. It doesn't take a lot of effort to
make a bar acceptable to people who live nearby. All the problem bars need to do is to imitate those bars that provide enough security to prevent unruly behavior and that pick up trash in the surrounding areas.
Most of the neighborhood bars in Lawrence don't get any complaints, or very few. I pass by at least one neighborhood bar almost every night, and I can't remember ever seeing empty beer bottles or cups on the ground. The music can get fairly loud sometimes, but they always turn it down before it gets late enough to cause complaints. What a difference a sense of responsibility can make: no trash, no vomit on the sidewalk and no outhouse smell.
To be sure, the city is responsible for part of the problem. It's fine for the commissioners to talk tough right before the election, but when they postpone taking real action until after the election, does anyone really think the situation is going to change?
Under current ordinances, the city commission can revoke a license from a drinking establishment if it becomes a nuisance. But the commission is generally reluctant to do so because bar owners often cite their financial dependence on revenue from the bar. So, even if the City Commission adds new restrictions on paper, the problems will continue until repeat offenders are shut down or the owners decide to take preventive measures at all times, not just when their licenses are in peril.
Of course, all of these problems could be avoided if the students who patronize these bars would simply act their age.
I really doubt it. The ordinance being proposed won't change things much anyway.
None of these solutions seem likely to me, and that's a real shame. Unless this situation results in a lawsuit with a multi million dollar verdict for pain and suffering, my advice to the people who are affected by the bars is this: Buy some ear plugs and spray your lawn with toiletbowl cleaner once a week to keep the smell down.

University should avoid censorship
The University of Kansas should not tolerate, and certainly must not be an advocate of censorship in any form. When KU officials began investigations of the "Templin Revolution" Web site, they began to encroach on the basic fundamentals of a free society. Visiting the Templin Revolution site will not result in a disturbing or upsetting feeling to any viewer unless they are upset and disturbed by dumb humor and pictures that reek of cheap parody. This is not wrong, and demonization of such behavior should not be tolerated. To claim that the KU Campus Internet Association should remove a link to this site is also uncalled for, because the site has a serious relevance to KU topics, even though it is not dealt
with in a serious manner. In short, the Templin Revolution web site is a simple parody for Templin Hall Governance. If KU wishes to control the site's content, it wishes to silence its naysayers an action that is not acceptable to anyone who encourages the dissemination of free speech, however it manifests itself.

Dole Institute gets a $6-million boost from federal funds
By Melody Ard
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writes
The Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy got a big boost from the federal government this week. Congress gave $6 million to the institute Wednesday, doubling the funding available for the project to $12 million.
In the spring, the Kansas Legislature gave $3 million in state funds for the project. That was matched by private funds.
The money is expected to be used for lectures, seminars, internships and organization of the archives that the former senator donated to the University.
"The institute will not just be a building,"
said Burdett Loomis, interim director of the institute and professor of political science. "This is a real opportunity for the state of Kansas and the University of Kansas to look at important policy issues and carry on Bob Dole's legacy of public service to his state and country."
Jill Simpson, Columbus junior, said the financing for the institute was a positive thing for Kansas and the University.
Dole: Has building named after him at University of Kansas
A. C. RUBER
"It would be a really good thing because I think Bob Dole has done a lot for the state of Kansas," she said. "He's brought a lot of attention to Kansas."
The institute, being designed by architects from the firm of AISA in Lenexa, is being constructed on West Campus, near the Lied Center.
The $6-million appropriation was part of the $520 billion spending bill signed by President Clinton.
Some legislators, including Kansas Sen Sam Brownback, had reservations about the bill and contemplated opposing it. Brownback and the five other Kansas members of Congress voted in favor.
"A half-trillion dollars in spending was put together at the last minute with five people in the room, and then we get less than 24 hours to look at this bill," Brownback said. "This is just not the way to run a democracy of the stature of the United States."
The funds were divided among programs nationwide, including at least two dozen in Kansas.
Kansas State University was among those benefiting. The Food Safety Consortium there is to get $1.5 million.

Houses to tumble Monday for garage
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
The razing of buildings for the new parking garage north of the Kansas Union will begin Monday.
Jim Modig, director of design and construction management, said the parking garage was still in early stages of design, but the site was starting to be prepared now.
THE HISTORY OF THE HOUSE
It was built in 1842 and was the residence of the prominent New York lawyer, J. P. Cunningham. The house is located at 601 North Ave., Brooklyn, NY 11203. It is a two-story structure with a front porch and a side entrance. The house features a gabled roof with a decorative railing and a large window on the first floor. The second floor has a large screened window and a fireplace. The house is surrounded by trees and shrubs.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976. It is now part of the Brooklyn Public Library's library system.
"The plan is to remove the green house, the continuing education trailers, then two houses on Mississippi, 1222 and 1224," he said. "We should be done in 30 days, but given the time of year, that might be extended."
This house on Jayhawk Boulevard north of the Kansas Union has been marked for razing to make room for a new parking garage. Crews also will remove the continuing education trailers and two houses on Mississippi Street. Photo by Corie Waters/KANSAN
The houses have been empty since August.
Modig said asbestos needed to be removed from the continuing education building before it could be razed.
Rodger Oroke, University director for facilities management, said there might be some inconveniences for the next 30 days.
"It may be hectic once the construction starts," he said. "We won't have a wrecking ball situation. I understand that the contractor will have what they call a hydraulic pincher. It's the same type equipment they used on the parking garage at Jayhawker Towers."
Oroke said the only disturbance to traffic will be a minor loss of parking spots.
"On Oread Avenue, there will be maybe
three parking spaces we'll need to close off by Lot 58 South," he said.
Modig said the University will be taking bids for the construction of the parking garage around the first of the year.
"It's still early to say, but we anticipate the garage to be ready for fall of 2000," he said. "If everything goes well, it may be
done even sooner."
Lesa Roodiger, Lenexa freshman, said even though she parked at Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall, she thought the parking garage was a good idea.
"Anything they can do to improve parking on campus is a definite positive," she said.
New bike racks on KU buses gathering dust
The bike racks are on the buses, but so far there are still no bikes.
After a long delay, KU on Wheels has bike racks mounted on buses that run on the 23rd and Naismith route. Now they are looking for students to make use of them.
Nicole Skalla, transportation director wants to see students take advantage of the new system.
"No one has come in yet to sign the waiver or to be shown how to mount their bike on the bus," she said. "That's why we want students to know as much about the bike racks as possible."
Doug Neely, driver of one of the 23rd and Naismith buses, said that loading the bikes was simple, but he didn't know if students would take advantage of it.
"I don't think it's very practical for a student to use it everyday," he said. "I think it'd get more use when maybe a student's bike breaks down."
Bike racks originally were to have been
attached to the buses in early September, but many factors caused setbacks.
"There was a delay in the shipping of the racks," Skalla said. "Then, once we got them, they had to be retrofitted to the buses. We had to get a welder to change them to fit our buses, probably because our buses are so old."
The cost of the welding may have been enough to exceed the program's budget, Skalla said. About $3,000 was budgeted for five new racks and the cost of advertising. The cost of a welder was unexpected, but Skalla said because they budgeted for a small cushion, the budget would not be hurt tremendously.
Skalla said the KUID problems also pushed back the racks.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, said he thought the racks were delayed because KU on Wheels wanted a watertight liability system.
"The bus company wasn't expecting the problems with the smart card readers," Skalla said. "We didn't want to complicate a route that was already complicated, so we put the racks on the back burner again."
Kansan staff writer
"They wanted it to be clear that anything that happens isn't the fault of the bus driver or of senate," he said. "They were probably erring on the side of caution."
A. C. Corle, Independence junior, said he thought the racks were a waste of time.
Students seem apathetic toward the racks, on or off the buses.
"I don't see why you'd want to ride your bike to the bus stop, load it up, then unload it," he said. "If you're in a hurry, you don't have time for that."
Janis Reedy, Overland Park sophomore, said he thought the bike racks were a good idea, but people might think the process was too time consuming.
One of the racks is currently on display on the fifth floor of the Kansas Union.

Students also need to sign a waiver before they can use the racks. After learning the proper way to mount the bikes and signing the waiver, students will receive a pass to show the bus driver.
By having bike racks on buses, students who do not live near bus stops could ride their bikes to where the bus would pick them up.

Semester blues cause roommate woes
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
"I'm so sick of you," 'clean up your mess,' "keep it down" are phrases that can be heard by roommates.
As the semester rolls on and emotions and stress rise, University of Kansas housing officials said some roommates were bound to have problems.
I'll give you a lift.
"There's sort of a honeymoon period when residents first move in because it's new, and there's new people," said Kim Grassmeyer, assistant director of Student Housing. "Over time as weeks pass, things start to pile up and students get stressed. Pretty soon all the little things get on their nerves. It's that time of year when students lose their patience a little more."

Ken Stoner, director of the Department of Student Housing, said that students' frustrations were directly proportionate to where they spend most of their time. He said that if students spent 50 percent of their time at home, then 50 percent of temper tantrums would occur there with their roommate.
"A lot of times the fights aren't personal," Stoner said. "The student may be upset about something else and need to vent."
Angie Cicero, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, switched to a single room to help ease her housing woes.
"She'd come in and eat all my food
without asking or paying, plus she was a slob and left everything all over the place," Cicero said. "Basically, we just had a difference of opinion."
Kara Thompson, Newton freshman,
agreed that sometimes it was difficult
to get along with someone who was
completely opposite.
"It's not that my roommate and I have huge arguments and hate each other." Thompson said. "We're just really different, so it's stressful."
One thing that may have helped this year was the proactive use of roommate contracts in the beginning of the year, Grassmeyer said. She said that the number of complaints and incidents had decreased compared to previous years.
Students were asked to answer questions about their lifestyles as they moved in, instead of after a conflict occurred.
"Sometimes changing rooms seems easier than talking to a roommate," she said. "The contracts encourage communication, and communication helps find a middle ground."
Not all roommates have problems getting along, and many times they become good friends.
"I went potluck and was nervous at first," said Joanna Miller. Bloomington, Minn., freshman. "But it has been great. Actually, we both laughed at the contract and haven't had to refer to it at all."
Students who do not live in the resi
dence halls can have similar problems. The Web site www.swoon.com offers relationship advice and information. Roommate contracts also are provided at the site.
Lawrence resident who lives with four KU students. "They'll slam doors and yell at each other about it. I just sit back and listen."
"I think in roommates argue over the stupidest stuff like parking or not leaving messages," said Eric Phlegar,
If resident hall occupants have problems with a roommate and are interested in moving out, they can contact their hall director for more information.
World War II veteran talks with journalism students
By Kelli Raybern
Kansas staff writer
A World War II veteran presented a message to University of Kansas students yesterday, the same one he's been giving to young people for more than 40 years: Think positive.
Carl Christiansen spoke to three promotional writing classes in Stauffer-Flint Hall yesterday, sharing his stories as the youngest survivor of the Japanese attack on the U.S.S. Arizona in Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941.
Christiansen encouraged students to make the best of any situation.

Ashley Hock.
Topeka senior, said Christiansen's speech reminded her of speeches by her late
grandfather, also a World War II veteran, who taught her something about her own life.
"I got an emotional lesson from it: How to take an experience of that magnitude and keep applying it to everyday life," she said.
Christiansen told the story of the day Japanese bombers sunk his ship, the U.S.S. Arizona, with complete emotional control.
He said when his division arrived in the harbor, it started getting ready for Christmas.
"Christmas never came," he said.
He described hearing noises. He thought it was just
a bombing exercise until his friend saw Japanese planes flying low toward the Arizona. Christiansen was sent to his battle station and moments later the ship was hit.
"When the ship blew up, there was just a gentle motion," he said. "It went up, gently settled back down and sunk. There was no panic, just people trying to find a wax out."
Some men on board the ship choked on fumes.
captain's boat picked them up, and Christiansen awoke the next day in the hospital.
Later in his service, he said, he decided to dedicate his life to working with young people. He often speaks about his experiences to grade school students.
He said he had no idea about the amount of time that elapsed between the explosion and his escape from the ship, along with 21 other men. The
He also has worked to keep alive the memory of his shipmates who died in Pearl Harbor.
"He's dedicated to the memory of the Arizona and the men who were lost," said Diane Lazzarino, the instructor of journalism whose classes Christiansen addressed. "It's very much a labor of love for him."
Students drink too much pop, physician says
By Kolth Burnor
Kansan staff writer
Too many students drink soda pop instead of water, a University of Kansas physician says.
The Center for Science in the Public Interest, a consumer watchdog group in Washington D.C., agreed.
"Pop has become more than an occasional refreshment," said Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center. "We need a significant amount of water on a daily basis, but in the last decade we've seen soda start to replace water as our primary source of liquid."
The group wants soda pop banned from schools and higher taxes placed on its sale. It also seeks to end ads that target children.
The group, also known for listing the risks of Chinese food and movie theater popcorn, said that soda provides a dangerous portion of the diet.
"The average American is drinking twice as much soda pop as in 1974," said Michael Jacobson. the center's executive director.
A fourth of the teenagers who drink soda get at least 25 percent of their daily calories from its sugar, Jacobson said.
While some KU students such as Adam Chase, Lenexa sophomore, did not agree with the proposed restrictions, they agreed that pop is not healthy.
"There are better things I could be drinking, like Kool-Aid," Chase said. "I hear from my dentist all the time that I shouldn't drink so much pop because it's got a lot of sugar."
Rachel Crews, Brookings, S.D., sophomore, said she tried to avoid problems by drinking less soda and more water and juice.
"College kids are pretty resilient," she said. "But I think it will catch up with them in the long run."
Only 17.5 percent of about 200 vending machines on campus sell juice or water, said Robin Love, KU Coke Representative.
"It's not unusual for a student to drink a Coke at midnight to help them stay alert while they're studying for a test," Rock said. "But at one o'clock, that same Coke will still be keeping you alert when you want to be resting for the test."
Rock said that caffeinated drinks could be a double-edged sword for students.
Jim Finkelstein, representative of the National Soft Drink Association, said the consumer group was trying to create unfounded alarm.
"Soft drinks have never pretended to be anything more than a nice refreshment product," he said. "They make no nutritional claim."

Student groups organize weekend canned-food drive
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Football fans who plan to attend the University of Kansas vs. University of Colorado homecoming game tomorrow can do a bit of community service with a can of food.
A KU student group has organized a canned-food drive outside Memorial Stadium.
Volunteers from the Center for Community Outreach will be stationed from 4 to 6 p.m. outside the parking lot entrance at 11th and Mississippi streets and at the southeast gate entrance that leads to the stadium.
The second KU canned food drive will let individuals drop off their food cans at the entrance of Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St. Members of Social Work Students Concerned About Retaining Ethics organized the drive from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., said Melinda Garden, club president.
"While we are looking for any kind of non-perishable food," said Carden, Lenexa senior. "It would be nice if people could give us cans of creamy peanut butter, canned soup and
canned meat."
The drive was organized as part of Make A Difference Day, a national day of community service organized by USA Weekend, the weekend edition of USA Today.
The service day culminates with a national competition. The Center for Community Outreach was recognized in the paper as one of 200 participants last year, said Chris Hess, codirector of the center.
"KU students usually don't realize that there are many hungry people in Lawrence," said Hess, Wichita junior. "They think of hunger as something found in other countries around the world."
The food is to be distributed to five food pantries in Lawrence, said David Cade, director of Pelathe Community Resource Center, 1423 Haskell Ave.
The center will collect food cans from the volunteer groups and distribute them to the five locations. Cade said.
Last year, about 2,000 food cans were collected from several on-campus and off-campus volunteer groups, he said.
The center also is looking for

interested students should call David Gade at 841-7202.
The second half of the Center for Community Outreach's food drive is a benefit concert at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., on Oct. 30.
Groups such as the Band that Saved the World, Arthur Dodge, Fear and Whiskey and Four Miles are scheduled to play at the concert, which also doubles as a Halloween costume party.
Admission is $3 with two cans of non-perishable food. Various prizes will be given away, Hess said.
Paninis for pleasing the palate
Couple stakes their future on 10-inch serving of bread
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
A new delivery and carry-out restaurant north of the Kansas River wants to feed the hunger for Italian food felt by University of Kansas students and North Lawrence residents.
Richard and Janice Weneca last week opened Panini Grille at 317 N. Second St. The couple ran the deli at an Apple Market in Kansas City for 30 years. Three years ago, they started making panini sandwiches there.
"We thought it was the best sandwich we ever had." Richard Weneck said.
Weneck said he and his wife decided to open Panini Grille because they enjoyed living in Lawrence, and they wanted to open a smaller business.
Although a recent survey in Restaurant Business, a bi-weekly trade publication, ranked Lawrence as a poor place to open a restaurant, Weneck said Panini Grille was attracting business both from KU students and from North Lawrence residents.
In the week the delivery and carry-out restaurant has been open, Weneck said, he has seen the same customers come in three or four times.
ranini Grille offers 11 kinds of panini sandwiches, which consist of 10-inch slices of a bread called pane turbano plus olive oil, meats, cheeses, vegetables and sauces. The sandwich is

cooked on a special panini grill.
The menu also includes lasagna with meat or vegetables, sandwiches, bruschetta, salads, fried pound cake and chocolate paninis.
Prices for paninis range from $2.95 for a half-sandwich to $4.95 for a whole one. A lasagna dinner costs $5.95.
Before opening, Weneck consulted his son, Jason Sukut, and Sukut's friend, Hadley Burcham, who is taking this semester off from the University.
Burcham, a cook at Panini Grille, said she thought more students would order from a menu that offered turkey club and reuben sandwiches as well as paninis. She said the prices also should attract students.
Sears brings softer side to Lawrence
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
Sears' grand opening celebration tomorrow will mark the second of four new or newly expanded retail stores along South Iowa Street.
The 84,000 square-foot retail store at 2727 Iowa St. had a soft opening Wednesday, store general manager Jim Mohs said. A soft opening is unannounced and precedes Saturday's 9 a.m. grand opening.
Mohs said that Sears was expecting larger crowds this weekend and that the soft opening allowed the store's 140 associates to acquaint themselves with their store duties.
The Lawrence Sears store is one of 23 full-line units opening nationwide as part of Sears' $4-billion building and remodeling program. Sears has several stores in the Kansas City area and will be opening a store in Garden City this weekend.
Sears offers apparel, fine jewelry, fragrances, hardware, appliances and electronics.
"We're pleased to bring our loyal Lawrence-area customers a new store filled with more merchandise than before," Mohs said. "Our store offers a broad selection of the merchandise they need with the values they expect from Sears."
At 9 a.m. tomorrow, the grand opening will begin with a ribboncutting ceremony. Mayor Marty Kennedy and Lawrence Chamber of Commerce president Gary Toebbent will speak at the event.
Sears operated a catalog store in Lawrence, which closed in the late 1980s. Lawrence also was home for four years to a Sears authorized dealer, which sold hardware and appliances, before closing Oct. 13.
"Sears has never had a full-line department store in Lawrence, and it's very exciting." Toebben said.
After the ribbon-cutting ceremony, the first 500 customers who enter Sears will receive a $10 Sears gift card. Prizes totaling $14,000, including a trip to the Caribbean, will be given away.
Fashion shows and power-tool demonstrations also will highlight the festivities.
Kansas City Chiefs running back Donnell Bennett will sign autographs from 10 a.m. to noon, and Austin Peech from Days of Our Lives will sign autographs from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m.
Sears' grand opening tomorrow will precede two more retail store openings in November.
JC Penney will relocate from 23rd Street to a new store on South Iowa Street Nov. 5, and a remodeled and expanded Kmart at 31st and Iowa streets will open Nov. 20
Kohl's department store, 3434 Iowa St., had its grand opening Oct.9.

A whirl of dance, Stomp to whisk into Lied Center
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
The last time they came to the University of Kansas, 6,000 people stopped to watch.
Stomp will return this weekend and make a lot of noise in the Lied Center. Performances are scheduled for 8 tonight, 5 and 9 p.m. tomorrow and 3 p.m. Sunday.
A few tickets are left for sale, but Karen Christilles, director of public relations for the Lied Center, said students without tickets should attend even if the house is sold out.
She said some patrons who hold season tickets might be out of town or otherwise unable to attend. Representatives of the Lied Center will take names and try to arrange seating.
Danielle Reddick, a Stomp performer, said the group dances in a non-traditionally and makes music out of ordinary objects.
The troupe's instruments include
STOMP
What: Stomp
■ When: 8 tonight, 5 and 9 p.m.
· Saturday and 3 p.m. Sunday
■ Where: Lied Center
Cost: $21 to $32, except a student rate of $11 to $16 for matinees only.
20 brooms, five Sunday editions of The New York Times, 10 garbage can lids, an oil drum and a steel sink.
For Reddick, the key to Stomp's international success is its vibrancy and its wordless show.
"It is more about movements and music, which are universal languages and fit all ages, classes and societies," she said, "Because of that, Stomp is able to reach a very diverse audience."
Reddick said the creators of Stomp, Luke Cresswell and Steve McNicholas, began as performers on the streets of Brighton, England,
where people would stop to watch and listen to the performance.
Stomp was created in the summer of 1991. The group has won several awards, has appeared in a Coca-Cola "Ice Pick" commercial, and has received a 1996 Academy Award nomination for Best Live-Action Short.
Renzo Hayashi, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, junior, said he saw Stomp in New York before the troupe came to Lawrence the last time. Hayashi bought tickets for his friends to guarantee they would not miss it because he knew the show would be sold out.
"They are fast," he said.of the troupe. "You feel, like, overwhelmed, because they not only have the coordination to dance but also to make music out of Zippos, trash bags or whatever."
Tickets for Stomp are available at KU box offices. Tickets cost from $21 to $32, except for a student rate of $11 to $16 for matinees only.
Photos, artwork allow snapshot into lives and homes of artists

Kansan staff writer
A KU student will have her apartment transformed into an art gallery this weekend during the Lawrence Artwalk.
The Artwalk, which takes place from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. tomorrow and from noon to 5 p.m. Sunday, is the fourth-annual, self-guided tour of artists' studios in Lawrence.
The apartment of Lynette Romine, Lawrence senior, will be one of the 32 stops on the tour.
"I wanted to get my name out so people know that I am here," she said.
Romine will display some of her photography, which she plans to sell for prices ranging from $1 to $35 at 1605 W. Ninth St.
Romine won't be the only KU representative in the Artwalk this year.
Barry Fitzgerald, assistant professor of illustration, will display his personal and commercial work at 2133 Ohio St.
He has created images for The New York Times, The L.A. Times, Business Week and McGraw-Hill.
Fitzgerald, who has attended the event before, said it was important to support the local art scene.
The Artwalk has grown since it began in 1995.
"I like to think it's due to better promotion, and I have advertised more this year," said John Wysocki, Lawrence resident and organizer of the Lawrence Art-walk. "As with any new event, it takes a while to become known."
He said there were 12 more artists this year as compared to last year's event.
Wysocki didn't want to estimate the amount of people who would attend the Artwalk, but he said about 200 people visited the studios last year.
"Iwould like to see more students and faculty involved in the future, especially those in the art and design department."

Wysocik said that he thought the Artwalk was a opportunity for students to meet the public and showcase and sell their artwork.
"I would like to see more students and faculty involved in the future, especially those in the art and design department." Wysocki said.

Echinacea does student body good
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
Herbal remedies are proving their effectiveness for two University of Kansas researchers.
Lester Mitscher, professor of medicinal chemistry, and Linda Steele, graduate research assistant, have been studying the benefits of the herb echinacea.
Native to Kansas, echinacea once was used by Native Americans for the prevention of illnesses. Mitscher said that until now it could not be proven that the herb had positive effects on the body.
Mitscher has demonstrated that when echinacea is taken the herb can strengthen the immune system and help prevent colds.
"Generally speaking, this is now something we can support," Mitscher said. "We have credible evidence that this works."
Because stress weakens the immune system, Steele said that before holidays and during finals, students should begin to take echinacea to help prevent illnesses.
Although taking echinacea does not result in serious side effects, taking the herb too often overstimulates the immune system. Taking too much in one dose also can be harmful.
Mitscher recommends that echinacea be taken for a short period of time and then discontinued. He said that a few weeks should be allowed for the immune system to rest.
Echinacea is sold in most health food stores and can be purchased in various forms such as capsules and tablets,
said Hal Sears, vitamin and herb specialist at the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St.
Although there are many products on the market that contain echinacea, not all of them are effective equally.
One of the goals of Mitscher's research is to find the most effective products on the market.
Finding the most effective products means comparing the quality of different brands. The quality of echinacea can be affected by how it is stored and if it is collected at the right stage.
"We are trying to do good science," Mitscher said. "We're trying to weed out the good stuff. The market has grown to a stage where we almost all know someone who consumes it."

Marilyn Manson is playing Sunday night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St. Last weekend, a poster of Manson was vandalized at Vibes Music, 911 Massachusetts St. The rock star has drawn controversy nationwide from religious groups, but some KU religious organizations have taken a more laid-back stance on the issue.

Groups not offended by sold-out concert

The difficulty purchasing tickets has been the only controversy that Marilyn Manson has triggered so far in Lawrence.
Manson, who will perform Sunday night at the Granada, has been criticized by many religious groups across the nation and some cities, such as Syracuse, N.Y., have been trying to ban him from performing.
I don't agree with his message, but I don't think it's my right to say that he can't come to Lawrence," said Josh Madden, Overland Park senior and president of the Chi Alpha Christian Fellowship organization.
Unlike the negative opinion expressed by some religious groups, organizations at the University of Kansas have taken a more relaxed stance on the issue.
Mike Markley, president of the Campus Crusade for Christ, said he wasn't upset that Manson was coming to Lawrence.
"I'm not offended by him," Markley said. "I think God loves him as much as he does the rest of us."
The announcement of the show, which sold out in 12 minutes after 650 tickets went on sale Wednesday evening, hasn't caused the Lawrence Police Department to worry, either.
Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler said that the police department wasn't going to increase its downtown security Sunday night. Wheeler said that there had not been any problems during the last two shows — 1996 at the Granada and 1997 at Liberty Hall — and that he didn't expect any problems this year.
Unlike the Lawrence Police Department, the Granada will be tightening its security with the use of metal detectors.
Jeff Fortier of Avalanche Productions said that he didn't want to increase security too much because it could create an antagonistic atmosphere for the show.
The doors will open at 7 p.m. Sunday, but the exact time and the length of the show has not been determined.

Buyers find niche on Internet
Students join trend in online browsing
By Sarah Hansen Special to the Kansan
KU students are starting to buy into the convenience and simplicity of shopping on the Internet. It is all part of a national trend, experts say.
Today, shoppers can buy almost anything on the Internet with less hassle than busy malls or even catalog orders, said Dave McClure, executive director of the Association of Online Professionals.
"Generally, things that do well in mail order do well on the Internet," he said. "The most common products purchased are CDs, books, travel arrangements, stocks and bonds and computer parts."
Rob Gill, Spring Hill junior, said that he had shopped online for computer parts.
"Computer parts are cheaper and easier to find on the Internet," he said. "The whole thing is fast and simple."
Jatime Keeler, Iola senior, said she
shopped on the Web for her wedding.
"I found my wedding dress on the Watters and Watters web site," she said. "I was able to print a picture of it, and then the site directed me to a store where I could try it on. It was pretty easy."
But not everything offered on the Internet turns out to be a good seller.
"Touchy-feely products like cars or food are not common products to be purchased on the Internet," McClure said. "The consumer generally prefers to see and feel these items hands-on before buying them. They like the smell of a new car and the way it drives and that is something that just can't be felt from a computer screen. Other products just aren't available, like cappuccino or other foodstuffs, because they can't be delivered."
Some students such as Mindy Sigle, Wichita sophomore, still are uncomfortable with using the Internet to shop.
"I don't trust giving my credit card number or even my address on the Internet," she said. "I'd be scared that some freak would get ahold of it."
In the past few years, as online shopping has become more and more popular, systems have been developed to protect the consumer and their personal information.
It's funny. People are more comfortable giving their credit card number to a waiter or cashier they don't even know rather than making private purchases on the Internet," McClure said.

Whale tries to be fun, but goes a bit overboard
Kansan music critic
By T.R. Miller
Whale All Disco Dance Must End
In Broken Bones
★★ out of ★★★★
If you are one of the other two people in the world who recognize Whale from their early 1990's single Hobo Humbin Slobo Babe, then you understand the shame that comes with liking a band like Whale. So when I decided to review their latest release, I took it as an opportunity to avenge myself.
I have a new train of thought that I used while reviewing this album. There is a certain beauty in bands that don't take themselves seriously. Provocative lyrics and impressive guitar techniques are wonderful, but sometimes music should just be fun. And then there's
Whale.
Take Smoke. It's a funny track that switches from dance electronica to heavy punk while vocalist Cia sings, "Smoke I know I smoke too much/Got one foot in the ashtray." I was dancing in the kitchen until I realized just what they were singing about.
The first track, Crying at Airports,
features a sample from Nenah Cherry's Buffalo Stance. I honor the band who will pay reverence to the late '80s, but I can't explain this sample. The song switches dance beats behind prose about a fear of flying.
"I kept my headphone set/ideria totelette/to keep me fresh and wet/in case I would forget." The meaning of words is inconsequential, only their sounds are needed.
<
ALL DISCO DANCE MUST END IN BROKEN RUNES>>
My favorite line is at the end of the
album. Unsung but typed on the CD cover, Whale encourages its listeners to make up their own lyrics to describe American pop culture history and lists some guitar chords that are deemed appropriate for the topic.
But back to my above-mentioned theory. I maintain that music should be fun. But I also have added another element to the theory. One should also actually be able to listen to it. This is an album that should be bought by a listener with a large sense of humor.
Ha. I get it.

Nazi war criminal gives eerie lesson to Apt Pupil
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansas movie critic
The Nazis always made the best movie villains.
They were the all-purpose bad guys. Whether serving as target practice in Raiders of the Lost Ark or figures of evil in Schindler's List, they never lacked in diabolical motivation or genuine terror.
*Apt Pupil*, based on the Stephen King novella of the same title, mines a different vein of the Third Reich's dark realm.
The movie tells the story of Todd Bowden (Brad Renfro), a bright teen whose fascination with the Holocaust strives away from mere historical curiosity.
Todd becomes obsessed with his next-door neighbor, Arthur Denker (Ian McKellen), a Germanborn immigrant who bears a striking resemblance to the never-captured SS officer Kurt Dussander.
After comparing photographs of Denker with those of a youthful

to fuzzy cats
Dussander, Todd corners his neighbor and threatens to expose him to the Israeli authorities. For his silence, Todd forces the old man to reveal the horrific details of his many war crimes.
And the boy receives an earful. With Aryan pride still gleaming in his eye, Dussander recalls that it sometimes took the Jewish victims at least an hour to die in the gas chambers. As their motor functions began to weaken, the last few survivors would clamor on top of the dead, desperate for the oxygen that they would never find.
It's during these scenes that McKellen finds the perfect balance between malevolence and frailty. In one disturbing sequence, Dus
sander tries on an old US uniform and gives Todd a lesson in goose stepping — complete with the infamous "sig hell" salute.
But the audience never forgets that they're watching a feeble old man who loves his garden and hates door-to-door salesmen. It's a testament to McKellen's talent that Dussander remains despicable yet curiously intriguing.
Apt Pupil also makes it clear that those who dabble in perversity can never reclaim their purity. After a while, Todd attempts to sever his connections to Dussander, but his efforts fail. He's seen and heard too much, and the information now dwelling in his mind excites him.
The relationship between these two souls provides most of Apt Pupil's chills, but the movie's pacing slips in the last 20 minutes. Movies of this breed need to keep adding on the intensity. However, Singer is content to let the pieces fall where they may.
Soldier offers only laughable action
Kansan movie critic
Movie has appeal despite mindless plot
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
It's not a good sign when Kurt Russell's latest action flask flicks more laughter than the new Eddie Murphy comedy.
Badly photographed and stacked with dialogue that seems to have been written by a 4-year-old, Soldier strikes a new low in the field of post-apocalyptic thrillers.
What's sad is that Soldier was written by David Webb Peoples, the writer who revolutionized science fiction with Blade Runner in 1982 and scripted the Clint Eastwood western *Unforgiven*. How the mighty have fallen, no?
This is one of those movies in which over-muscular guys pound on each other and the audience is supposed to get caught up in this battle of behemoths. When the bones
Russell stars as Todd, a blank-faced, robotic fellow who has been fighting in the military since birth. However, Soldier never precisely explains who the military is fighting against or why we should care.
crack, it sounds as though bowling balls were being dropped on a marble floor, and the brutes just keep on swiming.
Todd, after an honored lifetime of shooting and maiming on behalf of his faceless government, has been rewarded with retirement. It seems that his mustachioed superior (Jason Isaacs) is eager to put him out to pasture so that the army can begin exploiting the talents of a fresher breed of troops, notably the pumped-up Caine 607 (Jason Scott Lee).
Todd ends up on a waste-disposal planet populated by some raygag setters who look like refugees from Les Misérables. When they're not fighting off killer sandstorms or evil garter snakes, these folks are foraging. What are they foraging for? Beats me, and I doubt that Peoples or director Paul Anderson knows

either.
Then, for reasons that are never explained, the troops return to the waste planet to sweep and clear. And guess what? Todd is waiting for them, not too pleased about being kicked out of his beloved unit. Needless to say, his former comrades, including Caine, suffer much butt-kicking, severed limbs and gouged eveballs.
Oddly, it's hard to dislike Soldier. Russell barely speaks more than eight lines of dialogue, which allows the people in the audience to supply their own snide commentary to the proceedings.
And when Russell plays these kinds of macho characters who can scare lesser men into fits of urination, it gives the sarcasm lobe in the brain a decent workout.

Commentary Mixed team might give Roy Williams lineup trouble
Now that the basketball season has officially begun, it's time to ponder the season that lies ahead for the Jayhawks.
Marian Washington's team returns almost entirely intact with a whopping 99% of the team's scorsers and all five starters are back. The real concern is on the men's side.
With the departures of Raef, Paul and Billy, the most important question that Coach Williams must answer before the season sets under way is: Who will start?
With only two starters returning from last year's team, seniors Ryan Robertson and T.J. Pugh, Coach Williams will have to piece together a starting five out of the numerous young players available on his roster.
In my opinion, there are three Jayhawks who have already secured starting spots — and Pugh is not one of them.
Here's a look at the possible starters at each position:
Center — Sophomore Eric Chenowith is
a lock to be the man in-the-middle for the Jayhawks this season. In his freshman year, Chenowith often was pushed around in the post and tended to disappear in important games. During the summer, he put on some much needed muscle and gained valuable experience by touring Europe with a Big 12 All-Star team. Look for a dramatic

increase in Chenowith's scoring, rebounding and confidence this year.
Power Forward — This position is a toss up. Pugh would have to be considered the favorite, but don't count out the talented Lester Earl. Sure Pugh is a senior, plays tenacious hard-nosed defense and was a starter last year, but that doesn't automatically mean he's going to a start this year. With Earl in the starting lineup, the Jayhawks would have more athleticism, more rebounding and more excitement. No matter who starts, both will get ample playing time.
Small Forward — This is where it gets confusing. With Pierce gone, the Jayhawks need someone to step up and fill the scoring void. Kenny Gregory is the best player available at the position and the most likely candidate to shoulder some of the offensive load. With more minutes this season, Gregory should blossom into an explosive scorer and a bona fide superstar. But he might be needed more at shooting guard this season, forcing Williams to start either the unproven Ashante Johnson or the underrated Nick Bradford.
■ Point Guard—Although Robertson is one of the best point guards in the country and has led the Jayhawks to a 45-4 record as a starter, he might be playing a different position when the season begins. Freshman Jeff Boschie, an ultra-quick point guard reminiscent of Mike Bibby, who can shoot the three and defend the perimeter, is exactly what the Jayhawks need if they want to advance further in the NCAA Tournament this year. If Boschie can develop in time, he might join Robertson and Gregory in an intriguing three guard lineup.
Shooting guard — If Robertson is starting at the point, then Gregory will be the off guard. But if Boschee is promoted to the top spot, then Robertson will slide into to the shooting guard spot. Either way, Robertson will be the key to the Kansas back court because of his experience, his deadly shooting ability, his sound decision-making and his deft ball-handling skills.
Whether ends up starting, it will definitely be a challenge for coach Roy Williams to mix this blend of proven veterans and untested youngsters into a cohesive unit. But if anyone can do it, it's Williams.
Wilson is an Des Moines senior in journalism.
If everyone is healthy to start the season (that's a big "if"), and Boschsee emerges as expected, my dream lineup would be: Chenowith, Earl, Gregory, Robertson and Boschee. This combination would give the Jayhawks enough speed, athleticism and outside shooting to compete for the national
'Hawks hope to corral Buffs
Seniors look for homecoming win
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas Jayhawks are playing a broken record.
They enter tomorrow's game against the Colorado Buffaloes having lost all but one of their conference games in virtually the same way — throwing it away in the fourth quarter.
But they can't do it again.
If Kansas has any hopes of a bowl bid, the team has to win its last four games of the season starting with the Buffaloes, 6-1 overall and 3-1 in the conference.
54
"We still have four games left, and we can force some positives out of this season," strong safety Michael Allen said.
But tomorrow's game is not just about grabbing the Jayhawks' first conference win. It's also homecoming weekend, and the seniors' last chance to capture a homecoming victory.
"We've talked about the seniors a lot this week, finishing out the year right for them," wide receiver Harrison Hill said. "It's the hardest for them because they're the ones who don't have another chance."
What the seniors would like even more would be four home victories, the most they are capable of having.
"We're very anxious to be at home," coach Terry Allen said. "It is homecoming, and it's a situation where, obviously, we've been taking our lumps here recently, but it'll be nice to be back home.
"The seniors that have been physically able to play have done a very good job for us this year, and those guys deserve to have an opportunity."
With a disappointing first half of the

feels." Pugh said Thursday. "I'm hoping we can just wrap it and go. If there is still a lot of pain, I have the option of having a screw inserted in my ankle, which would allow me to play this season without sitting out many games. We'll just see how it goes in the next week or so."
Pugh missed nine games last season with a foot stress fracture. In September, he had surgery on his right ankle.
Soccer team plans to combat scoring drought
Pugh is considered one of the Big 12 Conference's top defensive players. He averaged 5.7 points and 5.0 rebounds last season.

Despite a 5-9-1 record, things are not as bad as it might seem for the Kansas soccer team.
The good news is that the goal keeping combination of Jen Fecke, Katie Garrity and Betsy Pollard have had 1.43 goals scored against them, down almost an entire goal per game from last year's 2.38 average.
"It's extremely frustrating because it seems like the defense has been working hard for nothing because we end up losing," Garrity said. "We have confidence in our ability as a defensive unit. We have been together for two years now, and we know each other's strengths."
Since losing at Iowa 5-1 on Sept.
Kansas held high-powered offensive teams such as James Madison, Nebraska, Baylor and Texas Tech to one goal each. The Jayhawks even shut out a powerful Missouri team and are ranked fourth in the Big 12 Conference in goals against.
11, the Jayhawks defense only once has conceded more than one goal in a game, a 3-0 loss at Oklahoma on Oct. 11.
Though the defense has been consistent this year, the problem for the Jayhawks has been at the offensive end. They have scored 18 goals this year for a paltry 1.17 goals per game.
Since scoring half of those goals at the Kansas Tournament Sept. 25-27, the Jayhawks have played 570 minutes of soccer and scored only once.
Forward Megham Haven thinks that the goals will come when the Jayhawks battle Texas at 7 tonight and Texas A&M on Sunday.

tournament in San Antonio.
"The difference now is to rely on other teams doing certain things," he said. "We've preached to always put ourselves in a position to win. By winning the next three games, we are not guaranteed in (the Big 12 Tournament), but it puts us in a position to be."
Last year, Iowa State finished 4-6 in the Big 12 and made it to San Antonio, Magner said. With three wins in their final three conference games, the Jayhawks would be 4-5-1 in conference play.
"Last year, we won our final three games," he said. "The coaching staff believes in this team, and I believe we can finish strong again."
While Texas and Texas A&M, sixth and fifth in the Big 12, will be tough be beat, Garrity and midfielder Melissa Downing are looking forward to a little homecoming this weekend. Both are Texas natives and said they will have their own fan clubs at the matches.
"I'll be playing against old friends, teammates and opponents," Downing said. "It's going to be cool to play against them. I have all my high school friends coming for the Texas game"
Garrity's sister, Kelly, plays lacrosse at Texas A&M, and Katie said she is going to be facing old teammates as well.
"I'm looking forward to facing (Texas A&M players) Stefani Chaney and Michelle Remington," she said. "My sister, brother and friends will be there Sunday, and I think my sister is getting her cadet friends to get a fan club for me."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 23). You'll have a compulsion to tell the truth this year, so watch out. You're liable to spill the beans on yourself. Better figure out what needs to be kept private and what can go public, and quickly. The private stuff needs to be completed as soon as possible. You're going to be drawing too much attention to keep many secrets this year, but that's OK.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You'll be thinking of money the whole time the sun's in Scorpio, which is another month. And you may not be quite comfortable with that sensation. Today, once you get the work done, head for the hills.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 4.
Ask money questions now, privately. The person with the answers is willing to talk, but not to everybody. If you're running into problems, it's because you haven't shown your credentials. Let the other person know you can be trusted, and you can help achieve a goal.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 4.
The work load is intense for the next month or so. It's not settled into a regular routine, either. Just when things are clicking along nicely, something you don't expect is likely to happen. You're going to have to be flexible, but that's OK. Flexibility is your middle name
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
All that work you let slide has to be done right now. You can easily whip everything into shape. You're so in love, this is merely an annoyance. Nothing's as important as what you and your sweetheart are saying to each other. A commitment made now will be fun and also a good working partnership.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
The moon is now in Sagittarius, which always lights your fire. So a project that seemed too difficult yesterday is going to start seeming less significant than it used to be. Your attitude is changing, and your luck is changing too.
Virgo (Aug, 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
You're almost ready to make your decision but aren't quite sure about a few matters. Maybe you'll have to move or change something about your living environment. Maybe you won't want to be with the same people, after you become magnificent. Well, the ones who empower you still will be around when you're more powerful, right?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4.
You're in a learning mode today, exactly where you should be. Yes, you could become the very person you always hoped and dreamed of being. But there are a couple of little things you'll have to do to make it happen, and the first is to start studying.
Scarpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 4.
The moon is in Sagittarius, which means it's time to go shopping. It's in your second house of money, and it looks like you could find a real bargain. You might find a genuine treasure, actually. Cruise past that store where you're most likely to find one.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
You may want to clear up a few things that have been bothering the back corners of your mind. You value truth and justice, and something may have happened that you felt was unfair. Well, it's time to get that handled and put to rest. At least it'd download on paper.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You're focused on group endeavors, playing with friends and all sorts of team projects. It looks like there's something that must be done quickly, however, so although you would like to be hanging out with your buddies all day, you may not have that opportunity.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
That light at the end of the tunnel should be visible for a brief moment today. You may feel things are clouding up again, though, when you realize you'll have to dance to somebody else's tune. This isn't easy for you, but it's not impossible, and it could be a useful skill to learn.
B
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 4.
Travel is likely, possibly tonight or tomorrow. Plan along those lines since the conditions are so marvelous. A job opportunity could become available today. The two concepts may be linked, as in the job requiring travel.

SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Former football coach for Lawrence High dies
Al Woolard, who coached Lawrence High School into a football power during his 1950-68 reign, died Wednesday in Lawrence. He was 87.
Woolard's Lawrence Lions won 153 games, lost 12 and tied five in 19 seasons.
LAUTORIENNE DE LA FONTAINE
John Hadi, associate athletics director of development at Kansas, said that Lawrence had good teams before Woolard was coach, but he put the team on a higher level.
Woolard was born Dec. 29, 1910,
in Nowata County, Okla., and grew up
in Coffeville.
**NOTE:** Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
After leaving coaching, Woolard remained at Lawrence High as athletics director until 1976. He came out of retirement in 1979 and became an assistant coach and recruiting ambassador at Kansas for nine years.
Ex-Yankee applauds World Series winners
LARNED — Ralph Terry is part of the history of the New York Yankees, and
Yankees
he has some ideas as to why the 1998 World Series champs are the winningest team ever in the major leagues. The Yankees did it with defense and
pitching, said Terry, a pitcher who played for the team in 1956 and returned for a second stint with the Yankees in time to see Roger Maris hit 61 home runs in 1961 and win the MVP award in the 1962 World Series.
"They've got two good catchers.
Then they've got (Chuck) Knoblauch on second to go with (Derek) Jeter.
That gives them the best double-play combination. (Tino) Martinez is the best first baseman in the business.
They got (Scott) Brosius for his glove, and he hit .300 for them, but they basically got him for his glove."
"They've got the best defense in baseball," Terry said before the Yankees won the fourth game of the
World Series yesterday against San Diego.
Terry, who has lived in Larned since 1961, also likes the Yankees' speed and the ability to get one run when it's needed.
NEW YORK — The New York Yankees' sweep will end up as the lowest-rated World Series in history.
Yankees' sweep costs Fox network $15 million
Final ratings were to be released today, but Fox's four-game overnight average was a 1.5,7, down 1 percent from last year's all-time low.
The previous low-national rating for a World Series was the 16.4 earthquake-interrupted sweep by Oakland against San Francisco in 1989.
NBC received a 16.7 rating for last year's World Series between Cleveland and Florida.
The overnight rating for Game 4 Wednesday night was a 17.2,8 percent higher than last year. Without the drama of a seven-game series, Fox lost an estimated $15 million because of the sweep.To break even, Fox needed the World Series to go five games.
Union suspends agent imposes $10,000 fine
WASHINGTON — Agent Jeff Nalley, whose involvement with Curtis Enis led to the running back's suspension at Penn State last year, was suspended yesterday for almost two years by the NFL Players Association.

The union,which
The union, which regulates agents in the NFL, banned Valley from negotiating contracts with any league teams and from
recruiting players as clients during the suspension. He will be fined $15,000 if he returns to player representation after the suspension, which ends April 15, 2000.
Nalley bought Enis, an All-American at Penn State, more than $1,000 worth of clothing last year. When the school was notified, coach Joe Patemo suspended Enis for the Citrus Bowl.
"This is the most severe penalty we have ever imposed," said NFLPA general counsel Richard Berthelsen, "but our committee felt it was well-justified under the circumstances."
Nalley was fined $10,000 and required to perform community service in the Harrisonburg, Pa., area.

Conference considers Houston for bowl game
弓
GOAT
it's been 11 years since Houston last hosted a college football bowl game. The Bluebonnet Bowl disappeared in 1987 for lack of financial support.
Mid-American Conference commissioner Jerry Ippoliti came to Houston for talks Wednesday and yesterday with Houston-area leaders and sports officials.
Western Athletic Conference commissioner Karl Benson told the station that his league is intrigued with the idea.
Ipoliti told KRIV-VT that he's gauging interest and financial support for the project. It was Ipoliti who helped create the Motor City Bowl in Detroit and the Music City Bowl in Nashville.
A target date for the proposed bill is December 1999. Normally, it takes two years for a bowl to be certified by the NCAA.
HOUSTON — At least two conference commissioners are showing interest in a proposed bowl game at Houston.
"We are very excited about the possibility of a bowl game in Houston," Benson said. "The WAC, in the future, is certainly in the market for a bowl game."

It'll be another tough weekend for the Kansas volleyball team as they travel to No. 13 Colorado Friday and No. 3 Nebraska Saturday.
But the 13-7 Jayhawks have momentum after sweeping Missouri and Iowa State last weekend at Allen Field House. The Jayhawks ended a five-match conference losing streak with their first Big 12 Conference wins since Sept. 23.
For the Jayhawks, who improved to 3-5 against Big 12 opponents, last weekend was important in their quest to finish in the middle of the Big 12.
Coach Ray Bechard said his team was pleased with their performance.
"Any time you can win 3-0 in the Big 12, that's good," Bechard said. "It doesn't matter who it is. As we try to make our way up, these are big matches."
Outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht said that the wins boosted the Jayhawks' confidence against other league teams.
"It was a good breakthrough win," Albrecht said. "We really needed to dominate, and we did. We did some technical things better than we had been."
The Jayhawks have faced both of their upcoming opponents already this season, losing three games to none both times. Despite being the underdog, Bechard said that the Jayhawks could reach their goal for this weekend by winning a game or two and extending the match as long as possible.
"we can accept whatever happens

if we play like we can." Bechard said. "Certainly, those teams are going to affect what we do. But for us, if we play well on our side of the net, if we execute and follow a game plan, we feel like we could extend the match to four or five games."
Colorado, whose only loss in the Big 12 came at home against Texas, leads the all-time series against Kansas 23-2.
In the Jayhawks' loss to the Buffaloes earlier this season, right-side hitter Nancy Bell led the way with six kills, nine digs and three block assists.
Despite the Jayhawks' successful campaign to slow down Sarah Lodge, the 1997 unanimous All-Big 12 selection, the Buffaloes had a balanced attack, winning in three games with no player collecting double figure kills.
Nebraska has yet to lose a match and only has lost two games all season. Only No. 6 Stanford and No. 15 Texas A&M have beaten the Cornhuskers in a game so far.
Kansas middle blocker Anne Kremler said that playing those teams could help the Jayhawks improve.
"I think the tendency is that you play to the level of your opponents sometimes," Kreimer said. "These teams are tough, and we'll have to come out with a lot of intensity."

AMES, Iowa — Iowa State officials are so concerned about getting a crowd for the football season finale with Kansas that they're giving away tickets.
Because of the possibility of cold weather that could scare away fans for a late November game, Smith said he probably would have made the free ticket offer regardless of attendance numbers.
The Associated Press
Athletic Director Gene Smith is offering Iowa State's season ticket holders two free tickets to the Nov. 21 game.
43,000-seat stadium.
Ticket sales at Iowa State are down this fall. The Cyclones, who have a 2-4 record, have averaged 34,802 fans for their four home games. Last year, the team averaged 36,486 fans in the
In a letter to the 18,000 season ticket holders, Smith said he was making the offer to demonstrate "how much we value your support and at the same time give our players a vote of confidence by filling the stadium for the Kansas game."
Crum said the response to the offer had been unbelievable.
"Our fax is running continuously," he said. "It has worked real well."
Smith blamed the drop in attendance on the 11:30 a.m. starts for two of the home games, saying walk-up fans were less likely to buy tickets when there was a morning kickoff
Kansas is 2-5 overall and 0-5 in the Big 12.
Last year's season finale against Kansas State drew just 24,042 fans, and the Wildcats were a nationally ranked team headed for a bowl game. When Kansas and Iowa State meet, it's likely to be two teams with losing records going nowhere in the postseason.
The Nov. 7 game with Nebraska probably will be a sellout and help the average, but crowds usually are slim for the Cyclones' final home game.
"Kansas does not travel like Kansas State, so it's always a tough sell," ticket manager David Crum said, noting that Kansas State fans bought 3,500 tickets for last year's game.
Smith said the offer was not an act of desperation to attract fans.
"I'm not as panicky about our attendance as most people seem to be and the media probably will be," Smith said. "If we were winning and averaging what we're averaging, then I'd be disappointed. But I'm keeping it in perspective."
Seizure led to death of Olympic champion
The Associated Press
SANTA ANA, Calif. — Olympic sprint champion Florence Griffith Joyner suffocated during an epileptic seizure as she slept, authorities said yesterday.
Lt. Frank Fitzpatrick said toxicology tests showed she had taken Tylenol and Benadryl, but that there was nothing unusual in terms of drugs.
At a news conference, other scientists said her heart appeared normal.
Griffith Joyner, 38, died in her Mission Viejo, Calif. home Sept. 21, and since then investigators had been trying to determine the exact cause of death.

after discovering she was not breathing.
Stylish, smooth and muscular, Griffith Joyner won three Olympic gold medals at the 1988 Seoul Games and set world records that still stand in the 100- and 200-meter dashes.
Griffith Joyner had been shadowed through her career by speculation about use of banned substances, but she never failed a drug test and denied ever using drugs.

Emporia State's Shay to break records
The Associated Press
EMPORIA — Four years ago, recruitors dismissed Brian Shay as too small and too slow.
Now, the Emporia State running back is fast approaching the biggest rushing career in college football history.
"I hate to be told I can't do something," said Shay, a 5-foot-9, 218-pound senior. "People don't realize how much that motivates me."
Shay is third on the NCAA's all-time rushing list, behind two other backs who also played in Division II. He needs 106 yards to break Johnny Bailey's career record of 6,320 yards from 1986-89 at Texas A&I (now Texas A&M-Kingsville).
Shay already has 1,522 yards through seven games, with an average of 217.4 yards per game. At that pace, the record will fall when Emporia State - 6-1 and ranked No. 19 in Division II — plays tomorrow at 10th-ranked Central Missouri State, also 6-1.
"He may get 7,000 yards rushing in his career," Emporia State coach Manny Matsakis said. "That's unheard of. That's just not supposed to happen."
Shay doesn't spend much time thinking about his numbers.
"After the game, maybe," he said. "I never think about that during a game."
Shay, whose 14,200-yard games are also an NCAA record, also is dangerous catching and returning the ball. He already holds the NCAA career record for all-purpose yards with 8,378.
"After you score, then you have to kick the ball off to him," said Pittsburg State coach Chuck
"I hate to be told I can't do something. People don't know how much that motivates me."

Broyles, whose Gorillas were ranked No. 5 in Division II when they lost 38-28 to the Hornets on Sept. 19. "He returns the ball 60 or 65 yards and puts them in great field position, and that changes the whole momentum of the game."
Shay and Matsakis both came to Emporia State in 1995 after Shay led Paola High School to the 1994 Kansas Class 4A state championship — played, coincidentally, at Emporia State's Welch Stadium.
"I wasn't happy with the offers I got," Shay said. "He'd (Matsakis) just gotten hired a couple of weeks earlier. We gave him a call and sent him a tape, and he told me to come down. I signed the next day."
In the other recruiters' defense, Shay has gotten bigger and faster in college. He's put on almost 30 pounds, while taking nearly half a second off of his high-school time of 4.8 seconds in the 40-yard dash.
Shay rushed for 678 yards as a freshman, then exploded for 2,103 yards as a sophomore, earning a nomination for the Harlon Hill Award, Division II's highest honor.
But Shay doesn't gloat, on or off the field, about his achievements. When he scores, he simply hands the ball to an official.
A look at the accomplishments of Emporia State running back Brian Shay through Oct. 17 (year of single-season records in parentheses) and additional NCAA records he could toplease this season;

"He really has his own style," said Babich, whose team — a perennial Division II power — lost 23-21 to the Hornets in the season opener. "Our players said he's the hardest guy they ever had to tackle. There's nobody that just sticks out to compare him with, because he's physical, but also very fast."
Career scoring (record held by Carey Bender, Coe College, 528 points; Shay needs 56 points to tie)

I-AA Holy Cross, who was fifth in the 1986 Heisman trophy balloting and third in 1987, or Joe Dudek of Division III Plymouth State, who was ninth in the Heisman balloting in 1985.
But, Matsakis said, Shay has a better shot at something Dudek and Lockbaum didn't have — a lengthy NFL career.
"I've had players that have played in the NFL, and he's better than most of those guys," Matsakis said. "I can see him being around in 10 years."
The reason, Matsakis said, is Shay's control ranged on the field.
"He's a quiet guy on the field, Matsakis said. "But when he plays, there's a controlled rage about him that really makes him special."
Kansas State coach admired for turnaround
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa — Never has Dan McCarney seen a rebuilding job like the one Bill Snyder pulled off at Kansas State.
And rarely has the Iowa State coach seen a team as talented as the one Snyder has now.
"I don't see a solid starter on the field. Everybody we've looked at is above average to as good as we've seen this year," said McCarney, whose team plays at fourth-ranked Kansas State tomorrow. "There are no average guys. That's why I think they're a national championship-caliber football队."
years, the Wildcats have gone 49-11-1 and they're 6-0 this season.
McCarney coached with Snyder at Iowa for 10 years, and he still marvels at what his former colleague has accomplished at Kansas State, which might have been the worst major college program in the country.
McCarney said he has never seen a more impressive rebuilding job.
Kansas State was winless in the two seasons before Snyder arrived in 1989 and 6-47-2 over the preceding five years. During the past five
"I've been a part of two of the best," said McCarrie, who also was
an assistant
at Wisconsin.
“But I d o n 't know that we had to overcome what he
HUNTINGTON
nad there — losing forever and never, ever winning."
McCarney recalled a trip he made to Kansas State in 1988, when he was coaching the defensive line at Iowa. The Hawkeyes won the game 45-10, and Kansas State ended up going 0-11.
"It was absolutely one of the most depressing places I've ever been, just going into that football environment. We couldn't wait to get the game over, win it, get on the plane and get out of there," McCarny
said. "You go down there now, and as soon as the plane touches down, you feel the football fever in Manhattan."
Snyder was the offensive coordinator at Iowa from 1979 to 1988, and McCarney coached there from 1977-89. While he and Snyder were together, Iowa played in the Rose Bowl twice and made six other bowl trips.
"We shared a lot of great memories and bowl games and tough times and great times," McCarney said. "And with that thought, I think Bill ought to spot us 21 points before we start the game."
According to the odds makers, 21 points still wouldn't be enough. Kansas State is favored by 35 points.
One of McCarney's coaches, assistant head coach Nick Quartaro, was in Manhattan for the first five years of Kansas State's resurrection. Quartaro was the coach at Drake when Snyder hired him, and he remembers everyone wondering why he would go to a school that had just finished 0-11.
"If he didn't have that commitment, why would he have left Iowa and the success they were having?" Quartaro said. "Once he spelled out what they were going to do and how they were going to do it, as well as telling me about the quality staff he was in the process of hiring, I thought, 'My God, something seems right about this.'"
Quartaro said he trusted Snyder, who assured him he had received the commitment needed to upgrade the program.
McCarney said he and the other Iowa coaches thought at the time that if there was anyone who could make that program a winner, it was Snyder.
Snyder was hired by Kansas State shortly after the 1988 season ended.
"To say that was going to be a national championship-caliber program within a decade, I don't know if any of us would have said that at the time," McCarney said. "But could Bill turn that into a winner? There wasn't any doubt in our minds, no doubt in our minds at all."
Family name figures in Tulane's success
Son of Bowden makes own mark as football coach
The Associated Press
Tommy Bowden was wondering the other day what it would be like to replace his father, Bobby Bowden, as coach at Florida State.
"You replace Daddy and win nine, you're in trouble," Tommy said of the perennial national title contenders. "Now that's hard to deal with."
Thanks very much, but Tommy Bowden is quite content coaching at Tulane, where all he needed to be successful in his rookie '97 season were three victories.
The Green Wave won seven and posted its first winning record since 1981. And this season, Bowden's team is unbeaten in five games and ranked No. 22 entering Saturday's game at Rutgers.
Things are going so well for Bowden that his team has a strong shot at a perfect season — something his father hasn't accomplished in 33 seasons as a head coach
With games against Rutgers, Southwestern Louisiana, Memphis, Army, Houston and Louisiana Tech remaining, there's little doubt the Green Wave will produce back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 1980-81.
"Believe me, I'm as surprised as anyone," the 44-year-old Bowden, the second oldest of Bobby Bowden's four sons, said of Tulane's turnaround. "My plan was to get three wins the first year and get players to play here and eventually get six wins."
"Once I win six games, I'm going to the beach," he said. "If we're 6-0, then somebody else is coaching the other five. Won't be me."
After serving as an assistant coach under his father and then working with Pat Dye, Bill Curry and then Terry, Tommy decided to run his own show. Baylor and Kentucky showed interest, but there were no offers. The more he looked at Tulane, the more he saw a chance to win.
"I looked at the schedule and the facilities and saw what others, like Larry Smith and Mack Brown, had done," Bowden said of the coaches responsible for turning Missouri and North Carolina.
respectively, into winners. "I felt the opportunity to win here was great, and the objective in this business is to win, to stay employed."
Bowden knew exactly what he was doing when he showed up for his first day of work.
"My father has a tried and true plan, and all I’m trying to do is Xerox it," he said. "Get the players to buy into what you’re doing, get them to give great effort and be fortunate enough to have a good staff that stays with you."
With the Bowden name, it made his pen talk easier.
"You hear the name Bowden and it's like, 'whoa.'" Tulane quarterback Shaun King said. "That name means something. Everybody in his family is a winner, so we expected him to be a winner, too."
And they are. Bowden installed his trickery, deceit and deception offense featuring King, a pair of small receivers — 5-foot-10, 164-pound P.J. Franklin and 5-5, 170-pound Jon Wilson — and 5-8, 186-pound tail back Jamaican Dartez.
Since his offensive tackles are in the 250-260-pound range — pipsqueaks by linemen standards — Bowden employs a no-huddle, spread offense that can score quickly and often. While Tulane averages 34.8 points and 433 total yards per game, the defense allows 21.6 points and 440.2 yards per game.
King is ranked 5th nationally in passing, completing 84 of 134 passes for 1,261 yards and 14 touchdowns.
"Our success is predicated on the forward pass," Bowden said. "We throw to open up the run, and Shaun is the guy that makes us go. We have no big linemen or wide outs so we have to spread out and use all 53 yards of the field. If we don't, we're in trouble."
The Green Wave is operating smoothly so far, with a Conference USA title and Liberty Bowl berth on the horizon. After that, Tulane will find it tough to keep Tommy around for next season.
Already, there's talk of him replacing coaches at Clemson, South Carolina and Oklahoma.
"That's just another positive for Tulane," Bowden said. "It means the program is OK. In this profession, you're six inches from a halo to a noose. So I take it all in stride. It's great for the school and a nice compliment to me."

Meeting nears in NBA union talks
November games cancellation likely
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Pay-per-view exhibition games, $25,000 licensing checks, the feasibility of a new league and the whereabouts of Michael Jordan were the topics of discussion.
Salary caps, Larry B exceptions and luxury taxes took a back seat.
On the day before at least 170 NBA players are to convene here, their union and 19 player agents talked for three hours. The lockout that has shut down the league continued.
"We'll do whatever it takes to keep the players unified and to make a deal that's fair," agent David Falk said. "It's difficult to understand why there's economic distress in the
league when there are teams in small markets increasing coaches' salaries 300 to 400 percent while they're arguing that 20 percent raises in player salaries would break the bank."
No talks have been held in more than a week, and the league is expected to cancel the remainder of its November schedule. The first two weeks of the season were previously scrapped.
The union's director, Billy Hunter, its president, Patrick Ewing, and the 19 agents complained that the league, which is asking for a hard salary cap, an elimination of the Bird exception and other concessions, has not put forth a proposal worth considering.
"I think there's clearly a deal to be made, but the proposals don't reflect a willingness by the league to be reasonable at this point," Falk said.
The committee also heard from three players who dropped in
Kendall Gill, Malik Sealy and Michael Curry.
"All three of these guys would be
squeezed under the owners' proposed deal, and all three were talking about maintaining unity and resolve," agent Bill Duffy said.
Today, what will probably be the biggest one room assemblage of basketball talent in history, is expected to
NBA
assemble. About half the league's players, including Jordan, were convening for an update on the stale-taled talks.
"The message that's going to come loud and clear out of this session is that the players are prepared to hang as long as they have to hang." Hunter said. "As soon as that message arrives home, then I think the NBA owners will be prepared to sit down and engage in good-faith negotiations."
The 19-member agents' committee discussed three plans:
The owners' next move is expected to come out of a meeting Tuesday of the league's Board of Governors, with one representative from each ownership group.
A series of exhibition games to raise money for the union. Hunter said a game to be played today has sold out a 10,000-seat arena at the University of Houston. Another game with many high-profile players was being planned for Las Vegas, perhaps to be televised on pay-per-view, and a third game was being planned for
Japan.
Money for locked-out players. All players are due to receive $25,000 checks Nov. 15 as part of the league's group licensing agreement, and Ewing said many of the wealthiest players would forgo those checks for one year, with lower salaried players then getting an extra $25,000.
Lines of credit have been obtained from two banks and other professional sports unions have pledged loans.
Hunter said there were other options discussed that he did not want to disclose, but some agents said a subcommittee would be formed to explore the feasibility of starting a new league if the lockout forces the cancellation of the entire 1998-99 season.
Hunter added that he was making no predictions as to when talks might resume with commissioner David Stern.
Strawberry up to bat for cancer society
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Darryl Strawberry took a turn at bat for the American Cancer Society in his first public appearance since being released from the hospital after undergoing surgery for colon cancer.
The 36-year-old Yankee slugger was released from the hospital last Friday and had remained at home before he
turned up
Wednesday at a sporting goods store. The store is selling $3.99 "Darryl Strawberry towels," with $1 from each going to cancer research.
"Darryl] Strawberry has stepped up to the plate so many times over the years in critical situations, and today he steps up
Strawberry: Underwent surgery Oct. 3 for colon cancer.
on the plate on behalf of the American Cancer Society and its efforts to get people to learn about colon cancer, to learn about ways of early detection," said Ralph Destino, chairman of the New York City chapter.
On Oct. 3, doctors removed a tumor and a 16-inch section of Strawberry's large intestine. They said he must undergo chemotherapy after he returns next week to California, where he grew up.
Strawberry said that he had continued
to play baseball for two months despite not feeling well, thinking that "if it's not an injury I can see or feel, I'm not going to do anything about it."
He credited his wife, Charisse, with insisting that he get the checkup that revealed the cancer. The lanky slugger visibly lost weight on the hospital's liquid diet.
"I'm very fortunate. I was very lucky to get in at an early stage and realize the problem that I was having," said Strawberry, calling that a lesson for others.
"The best thing I can do is try to let people understand that things do happen, and it can happen to you," he said. "The doctors have educated me very well about this disease."
And since the Yankees swept the San Diego Padres with a 34 victory in Game 4 on Wednesday night, Strawberry was getting ready to celebrate with his teammates.
"The boss (Yankee's owner George Steinbrenner) called me yesterday to tell me to get ready for the parade," said Strawberry, referring to the ticker-tape parade that was tentatively scheduled for Friday.
About 150 people gathered on the sidewalk outside the store, drawn by word-of-mouth that the baseball star was inside. "Dar-ryl! Dar-ryl!" some chanted.
"I knew when he came up with the Mets in 1962 there was something different about him. And the way he comes back — it tells you he's a fighter," said 34-year-old Darrrell Phillips, of the Bronx.
Jaguars have extra incentive in trip to Mile High Stadium
The Associated Press
Doug Flutie might be the worst thing that happened to the Denver Broncos.
By pulling out a win for Buffalo over Jacksonville, Flutie spoiled what would have been a meeting of unbeaten teams at Mile High Stadium. But that provided more incentive for the Jaguars in what has become one of the AFC's most interesting rivalries.
Well, if you look at the schedule, this week is one of perhaps two or three remaining games that Denver might lose, which is favored by 71/2 points.
Is it too early to say the Broncos will remain undefeated?
The Broncos have every right to be wary.
Two seasons ago, they were the top seed in the AFC playoffs but lost their first playoff game to Jacksonville — at home— 30-27.
Last season, Denver got revenge, beating the Jays 42-17 and going on to win the Super Bowl. That playoff victory was the second in what is now an 11-game winning streak for the Broncos, who have outscored their opposition 203-109 this season.
The Jags, who expect to have Fred Taylor return at running back, were stung by last week's loss in Bufalo on the drive engineered by Flutie in the final 1:50.
But this could be close.
"To slip from a win to a loss like that is certainly a very uncomfortable feel." coach TOM Coughlin said. "I hope all our players will join with me in despair the feeling and wanting to do something about it."
Doing something in Denver isn't easy, particularly with the Broncos coming off a bye week in which John Elway's hamstring got better.
but Coughlin is a Bill Parcelsis discipline, and Parcels pulled off an upset Monday night.

Oakland Raiders coach says he regrets drunk-driving incident
ALAMEDA, Calif. — A day after being charged with driving under the influence of alcohol, Oakland Raiders coach Jon Gruden expressed regret for the incident.
The Associated Press
"I've apologized to the team," Gruden said Wednesday. "I've apologized to the Raiders' organization. And I'd like to apologize to Raiders fans. I've learned something."
A blood test taken at the time of his arrest showed Gruden had a blood-alcohol level of 10, a spokeswoman for the Alameda County district attorney's office said Wednesday. The legal limit is .08.
Gruden, who could face up to six months in jail and a fine if convicted, was arrested while driving home a week ago from a party following his team's 7-6 victory against the San Diego Chargers.
and is due to appear for arraignment Nov. 6 in Alameda County Superior Court in Pleasanton on the misdemeanor charge. That is two days before the Raiders play the Rayens in Baltimore.
The California Highway Patrol said Gruden was speeding by about 15 or 20 mph and straddling lanes when he was arrested. He was held at the Santa Rita Jail for about three hours.
court records showed the arresting officer described him as "uncooperative."

Baseball at its best this year
By Ed Schuylor Jr.
The Associated Press
When the sports pages and the sportscasts are full of agents' extravagant demands and veiled threats, fans can think about the magnificent home-run race between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.
Baseball fans will have something good to look back on this winter.
Making the memories especially savory is the fact that McGwire and Sosa acted like heroes and not like celebrities.
Fans can reminisce about the perfect game of the Yankees' David Wells or the 20 strikeouts by the Cubs' Kerry Wood.
In New York, where a lot of the off-season news will be about George Steinbrenner's threats to move the Yankees if he doesn't get a new stadium, fans can talk about the Mets' unsuccessful battle for the playoffs and the Yankees' super display of team play.
Of course, in the Big Apple, the future of the Yankees could somewhat dampen memories of the team's glorious year. With his team out of the news, Steinbrenner will make sure he's in it as he whines about how the Yankees should get a new $1 billion stadium in Manhattan.
Forget about Yankee Stadium being an historic site that rivals the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, N.Y. Steinbrenner talks about Yankees tradition, but when it's tradition vs. luxury boxes, tradition doesn't stand a chance.
But whatever the owners, the agents and the players do during the off-season, the past season will long be remembered as one when "Take Me Out To the Ball Game" was a swingin' tune again because The Game itself was the centerpiece.
McGwire and Sosa expanded the game to grab the attention of non-fans — heroes at a time when heroes are in short supply.
The Yankees' dominance helped rather than hindered the sport's popularity. It's just as much fun to root against a winner as to root for one.
And much remembered by Yankee lovers — and especially by Yankee haters — will be Chuck Knoblauch's high goof of arguing an umpire's call instead of going after the ball a few feet behind first base as a Cleveland runner circled the bases and scored. Plays such as that become threads in the rich tenstery of baseball.
Everything went right for The Game this year. The fight for the wild-card spot in the National League provided an exciting race right to the end of the season, and the playoffs provided the combination of good pitching and clutch hitting.
OK, so the television ratings were off for the World Series, but that's because the playoffs have made the World Series anticlimacytic — sort of how NFL playoffs sometimes make the SuperBowl anticlimacytic.
To sustain interest as long as it has in a season than runs too long and too deep into the football season is a tribute to just how special baseball was in 1998.

'98 Yankees' season evaluated
Place in history disagreed upon
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — The greatest team ever? Former baseball manager Sparky Anderson said the 1998 New York Yankees aren't even two-thirds of the way there.
"They're a great team for this era and will go down in history as a great team," Anderson said. "But they cannot be rated until they've won at least three World Series."
With Wednesday night's 3-0 victory against San Diego, the Yankees completed their first Series sweep since they dismantled the 1950 Philadelphia Phillies.
With a 114-48 regular season record, an 11-2 postseason mark and two Series titles in three seasons, their place in history is assured.
"I'm a little young to know about the teams back in the early 1900s." Derek Jeter said. "We were 125-50, and there's not too many teams that can do that. So I think we can argue about us being the best of all time."
Even last spring, Yogi Berra knew this team was special.
"I said they were going to win by
25," he recalled Wednesday. "They only won by 22."
They finished with a .714 winning percentage, the highest in baseball since the '27 Yankees led by Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig and the fourth-highest ever.
But how good are they? The best in 71 years? The best ever?
"That can't be answered," said Berra.
Led by the M&M Boys, the '61 Yankees had more power, with Roger Maris hitting 61 homers and Mickey Mantle hitting 54 en route to a 109-53 record and a 4-1 Series win over Cincinnati.
The '39 Yankees were the strongest of Joe DjMaggio's teams, finishing the regular season 106-45 and sweeping the Reds and winning their fourth straight Series title.
The '27 Yankees, generally regarded as baseball's best, went 110-44 and then swept Pittsburgh.
And what about Anderson's 1975-76 Cincinnati Reds, the Big Red Machine led by Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan and Pete Rose?
"I would rank this (1998 Yankees) team third or fourth," said The Chicago Tribune's Jerome Holtman, who has been on the beat for 42 seasons. "There isn't a Hall of Famer. They don't have a dominant hitter."
Holtzman rates this team behind the '27 Yankees, the '61 Yankees.
"They're a great team for this era and will go down in history as a great team, but they cannot be rated until they've won at least three World Series."
the Big Red Machine and perhaps the '19 White Sox, who threw the World Series against Cincinnati in a gambling scandal.

a gambler's surreal
Morgan puts these Yankees behind the 76 Reds because there's no superstar.
Anderson knows something about great teams, too. He managed the Reds to World Series titles in '75 and '76 and the Tigers in '84.
"You can never rank teams for this reason: There's no way the '27 Yankees can ever play the '98 Yankees or the Baltimore Orioles and the Oakland Athletics or the great Reds team." Anderson said.
"If you're going to dominate for a long time, you have to have a stud," Morran said.
It's also hard to rank these Yankees because they had a huge lead by the All-Star break and coasted to the most wins in the regular season since the '06 Cubs went 116-36.
"New York played against themselves all year just to see how good they could be," Morgan said. "Maybe they would have won 120 games if someone was pushing them."
The A's from 1973-75 were the last team to win three titles with the same nucleus. New York manager Joe Torre looks up to the Catfish Hunter-Reggie Jackson-Rollie Fingers teams as a standard, along with the Yankees in the '40s and '50s and the Big Red Machine.
"The 27 Yankees may have the better club, but we have the best record," Torre said after the finale. "We have to take a back seat to no one in my lifetime."
Scott Brosius, the World Series MVP, said it was impossible to have a definitive answer.
I think that will probably be talked about forever," he said. "The comparisons will go on and on, and maybe nobody will have a definite answer for the best team of all time. But you can look at this year and say we had the best single season of any other team, and that's a great accomplishment."
Yankees fans rejoice World Series title
New Yorkers' pride at an all-time high
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Fans are pumped.
After whooping it up in bars, on streets and outside an empty Yankee Stadium all night. Yankees supporters spent yesterday morning preparing to welcome the World Series champions home.
The Clubhouse, a Manhattan store that sells Yankees paraphernalia, was doing good business.
Manager John Camilleri said he
arrived at 6 a.m. and found a dozen people waiting for him at the door.
It's amazing, he said.
But not unpredictable.
Bernie Calamilleri was so sure the Yankees would beat the San Diego Padres and clinch their 24th championship, he put all the new merchandise out Wednesday night. He opened an hour early at 7 a.m., anticipating an eager crowd.
Yankees championship T-shirts and hats were flying off shelves as a steady stream of smiling fans came and went.
Much of the Yankees apparel is sure to be on display today during a victory parade up the Canyon of
Heroes on Broadway.
Many fans weren't waiting for the parade to start celebrating.
In the shadow of Yankee Stadium in the Bronx, people spilled into the streets early today banging pots, blowing whistles ring.
Yanfrees
"This is where it's at," said 26-year old Jay Justino of the Bronx, looking wistfully at the stadium.
ig cowbells and generally making as much noise as possible.
"Just to think, if they were home."
"Awesome," he said, referring to the 1998 version. "It reminds me of the early '60 teams because they're unbeatable. Even when they're losing, you expect them to win."
Longtime Yankees devote Tony Magro said the team ranks with the dominant clubs of the early 1960s, which featured Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle.
Before the game started, Harrelson, a member of the 1969 world champion Mets, paid the team perhaps the ultimate compliment.
"If we were amazin', they're just incredible," he said.
Scott Brosius named World Series MVP
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — Scott Brosius waited for the grounder, and after fielding it, he fired the ball to first base for the final out of 1998.
The New York Yankees swept the San Diego Padres to become World Series champions, and Brosius was their MVP.
For both, there couldn't have been a more fitting finish.
Brosius, an unknown commodity when the Yankees traded for him last November, ended this October as the most valuable player on one of the most celebrated teams in baseball history.
Brosius finished the series 8 for-17 (471) with two homers and six RBIs in four games to become the sixth third baseman in World Series history to be named MVP.
"I just think the biggest moment is that third out," Brosius said. "Throwing the ball and knowing it was the end of the game and the end of the season.
After the Yankees completed the sweep. Brosius was serenaded by his teammates in the clubhouse the same way the right-field bleacher fans rhythmically chanted his name all season at Yankee Stadium.
"I think it's every player's dream to get to the World Series and feel like you've played a part of the team getting there and the team winning." Brosius said.
"Scotty Bro-sius ... Scotty
bro-sius."
Brosius, who said he was eating pizza and watching TV when Florida won the Series last October, drove in the second run of the Yankees' Game 4 win with a soft single in the eight inning that didn't make it out of the infield.
"There certainly some satisfaction in how this has worked
out." Brosius said. "But I also just feel very lucky to be in this position, how things have changed from last year. It's just an unbelievable turnaround."
Last fall, the Yankees finally dumped disappointing pitcher Kenny Rogers to Oakland and got Brosius in return. There were some eyebrows raised at the deal since the third baseman was coming off a miserable 1997 season with the A's, batting .203 with just 41 RBIs.
But from the outset of this season, Brosius fit right in with the Yankees. He batted .300 with 19 homers and 98 RBI in 152 games.-Punctuating his remarkable season and the Yankees' incredible depth is the fact that Brosius often batted ninth in the order.
Forget the World Series MVP. Many of the Yankees thought Brosius was their most valuable player since April because of his presence on the field and in the clubhouse.
"There's a lot of things he has done base-hit wise, defense-wise and just attitude-wise that has helped everyone on the bench also," Yankees' manager Joe Torre said before Game 4.
Brosius, 32, played the postseason while his father underwent colon cancer surgery and chemotherapy. His father was in the stands Tuesday night when Brosius hit the two homers and came close to hitting a third.
Brosius was such a low-key part of the Yankees during spring training that Torre stared at the team press guide, trying to figure out why his numbers tailed off so much the year before.
"we didn't know what Scott Brosius was all about," Torre said. "The first half of the year, it didn't take long for us to see that he knacked in big runs for us and was very important for us both defensively and offensively."

Boeing reports a rise in net earnings
Executives warn that Asia is still a factor
SEATTLE — Boeing Co., still wrestling with production problems and the impact of the Asian financial crisis, reported yesterday third-quarter net earnings of $347 million, compared with a loss a year earlier.
The Associated Press
Boeing is forecasting $56 billion in revenue and more than $1 billion in net earnings for 1998. Boeing Chairman Phil Condit said. Revenues should be about the same in 1999, but profits should be about $2 billion, he said.
happens in Asia, one of Boeing's primary sales areas, said Alan Mulally. Boeing Commercial Airplanes Group president.
Company executives warned that they expect to lose far more orders to airlines than previously forecast because of Asia's troubles. They did not release specific figures.
Boeing still plans to deliver 550 planes this year and 620 in 1999, but next year's figure could decline depending upon what
Boeing said its sales improved during the quarter ended Sept. 30 because it delivered more aircraft than in the third quarter of 1997. But it said price pressures had kept its profit margins in check.
The company's earnings translated to 36 cents per diluted share and compared with a loss of $696 million or 72 cents per diluted share a year ago when the brunt of the production difficulties hit.
Boeing has been trying to more than double aircraft production, but ran into problems last year with snarled assembly lines, parts shortages and the need to
Some planes now coming off assembly lines also will go into storage. Mulally said in a teleconference with reporters. But he said the overall number of undelivered planes should be reduced by the end of the year.
Revenues for the quarter were $12.7 billion, up 12 percent from $11.4 billion a year ago.
Making 550 deliveries by year's end includes delivering at least some of the 34 jets now being stored because Asian airlines are having troubles or customers are trying to arrange financing.
Earnings for the quarter included recognition of tax benefits related to previous years' research and development tax credits worth $57 million or 6
During the quarter, Boeing delivered 123 commercial jets, up from 89 a year ago. As of the end of September, Boeing had delivered 368 planes.
cents a share.
He warned that the economic situation in Asia still poses a significant risk to Boeing for the next several years. Boeing already plans to reduce its 747 jumbo jet production rate from five jets to three-and-a half planes a month by the middle of next year, and Condit has said the rate may go lower if Asian conditions don't improve.
House lawyers will not discard Starr's evidence
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The House's top GOP impeachment lawyers bluntly told White House attorneys they have no intention of discarding any of the core evidence submitted by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr.
That message was delivered Wednesday during a meeting at which White House lawyers complained they were unable to find out what charges President Clinton may face.
The first closed-door session between the lawyers and House Judiciary Committee attorneys regarding the impeachment inquiry was described as a cordial meeting that did little to force any cooperative agreements.
The session was followed by harsh public comments by a White House lawyer and a representative for committee Republicans.
Paul McNulty, the Republican representative, said the White House should concentrate on cooperating with Republicans to expedite the inquiry rather than posturing about the fairness issue.
"Now, the allegations against the president are very serious," he said. "The charges, if true, would constitute an attack on the constitutional system of government."
The committee is expected to begin hearings after the Nov. 3 congressional elections. Its chairman, Rep. Henry Hydie, R-III., has said he would like to finish by year's end.
Inside the Judiciary Committee meeting room Wednesday, White House lawyer pointed out that chief Republican investigator David Schippers enumerated 15 grounds for potential impeachment.
Starr complied 11 possible grounds in his referral to the House last month, and Hyde spoke of streamlining the investigation to package the allegations differently, the Clinton attorneys said. None of Schippers' grounds for possible impeachment need be accepted by the Judiciary Committee, which started fresh once the House authorized an impeachment inquiry this month.
Republican lawyer Thomas Mooney and Schippers told the White House attorneys they should not interpret anything Hyde said about streamlining. Core issues would be taken off the table.
Both Starr and Schippers found that Clinton may have obstructed justice, tampered with witnesses and lied under oath in trying to conceal his admittedly inappropriate relationship with Monica Lewinsky, a former White House intern.
FCC Chairman Bill Kennerd said that police would have no access to locations without a court order.
The location proposal is part of a larger plan to implement a 1994 law that requires telecommunication companies to make changes in their networks so police are able to carry out court-ordered wires taps in a world of digital technology.
for the FBI and invade Americans' privacy. I don't believe that will be the case," Kennard said.
"We think this is a positive step forward," said Stephen Colgate, the Justice Department's assistant attorney general for administration. "In many kidnapping cases, it would have been very helpful to have location information."
With a court order, police already can listen to cellular phone conversations.
But not every company has the technical ability to provide a caller's location. This proposal, if adopted, would set up a nationwide requirement for companies.
"A lot of people are saying the FCC will turn mobile phones into tracking devices
With about 66 million cellular phone customers, police want the authority to legally tap cellular phones to track down drug dealers, terrorists and kidnappers. But
The legal standard for obtaining a location is lower than the standard for a wiretap.
Under the proposal, police only would need to show that the location is relevant to an investigation. Privacy groups say the government then could easily track the movements not only of a suspect but also of associates, friends or relatives.
This proposal aims to help law enforcers keep pace with technology.
some groups worry that such a practice could violate privacy.
The Federal Communications Commission without dissent proposed yesterday that cellular phone companies make technical changes so the FBI and the police can locate a person talking on a mobile phone.
Technical improvements proposed to let FBI find mobile phone users
WASHINGTON — Law enforcement officials say they need to know where suspected criminals are when they make cellular telephone calls. Federal regulators are proposing to give them the capability to find out.

The deployment came a day after Zimbabwe joined two other South African countries, Namibia and Angola, in announcing plans for a major offensive in eastern Congo. To date, their forces were concentrated in western Congo, where they fended off a rebel advance in August.
HARARE, Zimbabwe — Soldiers, armored personnel carriers and artillery pieces left Zimbabwe's capital yesterday, apparently headed to Congo for an assault on rebels in the country's eastern jungles.

Jayhawks hope to avoid loss in 4th quarter
Continued from page 1B
season past them, the Jayhawks have nowhere to go but up.
Colorado coach Rick Neuheisel is well aware of that fact.
"Kansas is a very capable team," he said. "It's a team that has nothing to lose. It can throw caution to the wind. We have to go in there and play a very, very good football game so that we can come home 7-1."
Kansas may have nothing to lose, but Colorado does.
The Buffaloes' next victory will mark their 600th win, and they will become only the 16th team to reach that plateau.
The Jayhaws plan to keep them from making history on Kansas turf as long as they can persevere through the fourth quarter.
"It's important for us to do some things early and not the let the fourth quarter happen like it's happened in the past," Michael Allen said. "If we come out and do the things we can do, it won't come down to the fourth quarter."
The fourth quarter doesn't loom ahead of the Jayhawks as an unsurpassable obstacle, though.
"We definitely had a few things happen in the fourth quarter earlier in the year that weren't good, but I don't think anybody on this team, when it gets to the fourth quarter, worries about it," Hill said.
And when the Jayhawks kickoff at 6:07 p.m. tomorrow on Fox Sports Network, there may be a different outcome than what they have become accustomed.

Need to increase ticket sales spread homecoming to colleges
By Chris Hopkins Special to the Kansan
The year was 1911. The University of Illinois was running low on funds, and attendance at home football games, a key source of revenue, had been low. The same could be said for school spirit.
Then came the idea that the school could invite alumni to return to campus to attend a football game. They called it homecoming, and it would change autumns on campuses across the country.
Homecoming, out of these desperate beginnings, has become a key part of many college football programs.
The idea spread quickly. Kansas held its first homecoming the next year and, based on the success of the Illinois game, added 3,000 seats next to the football field.
A University alumni magazine invited former students to the game.
"The first homecoming at the University of Kansas will be celebrated Nov. 23, the day of the Missouri game," the announcement read. "Put that in your datebook now. You're expected."
The Jayhawks won that first homecoming game against Missouri, 12-3, but have
not fared as well since. Kansas has a 35- 45-5 record for homecoming games.
Much of that record can be attributed to Nebraska, against whom Kansas is 321-1 in homecoming games. Against all other teams, the record is a winning 3224-4.
From 1912 to 1959, all but two of the Jayhawks' homecoming football games alternated between Nebraska and Missouri. In the other two games, Kansas lost 13-0 to Oklahoma in 1940 and defeated Kansas State 27-0 in 1945.
K-State might be Kansas' favorite homecoming opponent. The Jayhawks have a perfect record against K-State in eight homecoming games.
The only break in the annual homecoming football games came in 1918, when a massive flu epidemic swept the nation.
The Spanish influenza originated in Fort Riley the previous spring, traveled to Europe with World War I soldiers and returned with them the next fall. Eventually it killed 30 million people worldwide.
This year, Kansas will play Colorado in the homecoming game tomorrow. Against the Buffalooes, Kansas is 2-4-1 in homecoming games and 19-35-3 overall.
Kansas first played Colorado in a homecoming game in 1960, winning 34-6. The Jayhawks later were forced to forfeit the match, as well as a season-ending win against Missouri, because a Kansas player accepted a ride on a private plane, which rendered him ineligible. Those are the only two games Kansas has forfeited.

Kansas has struggled against Colorado in recent years, going 1-9 in the last 10 games.
The single win was a big one, however. On their way to the Aloha Bowl in 1995, the Jayhawks upset the fourth-ranked Buffalooes 40-24 in Boulder, Colo.
Coach Terry Allen said he thought that, while the homecoming games have equal weight as other scheduled games, the game was important for the fans.

KU alumna keeps twirlin' and cheerin'
By Heather Woodward
Special to the Kansan
The Jayhawk and Baby Jay do not show up for just anyone's wedding. But the former KU-featured baton twirler and former Miss Topeka, Beverly Bernardi Post, did cut her wedding cake with the KU mascots.
Whether it is in recognition of her "JHAWK 2" license plate or the thousands of dollars she has raised in KU sports ticket sales or her longest running stint as a KU majorete, she is, without a doubt, the University's No.1 cheerleader.
Post, a1978graduate, still twirls her batons at KU football and basketball games and will perform with the KU alumni band at the homecoming game Oct.24.
"I'm so proud of what the school stands for," Post said. "I was asked by Nebraska to twirl there, but I liked what KU provided.I'm so proud of the academic tradition there."
"The fans really make it fun to come back and perform," she said. "It's almost like they clap more for the alumni band because we're older and out of school. It's more rewarding than when I was young."
While a senior at Topeka High School in 1974, Post, now in her 40s, said she auditioned to twirl at the University and made the cut.
Friday nights, the high school senior would twirl for Topeka High, and Saturday nights she and her batons made the trip to Lawrence.
Announcer Max Falkenstein happened to witness both ends of her performance one weekend and became confused during half time. He let KU fans know about it.
"He kept saying, 'That girl is awesome, but it looks like the same girl I saw last night.' The other commentator was trying to get Max to move on,
was any way that it could have been the same girl," Post said.
but I think it was just bugging him since he didn't think the

Robert Foster, band director and coordinator of the alumni band that Post performs in, said he also auditioned her in 1974 when she became the University's featured
hen she became the University's featured twirler.
"I was so nervous trying out," she said. "Itwasaroundthattimethatwomen
were first even allowed to march in the band."
Fosters said he also had fond memories of working with Post.
"Her husband was actually a really good trumpet player in the band," he said. "She was a real good twirler, and we knew that. They are great folks. She is such a supporter of the University of Kansas ... just super loyal."
Hired as a YWCA dance teacher at age 13. Post said she has been dancing since she was 2-and-a-half years old. She studied ballet, tap, jazz, baton and pom. By age 22, Post had her own studio. Today, she is the only teacher at the Beverly Bernardi Post Conservatory of Dance in Topeka and has an enrollment of more than 500 students.
"I just loved dance and baton," she said. "I just thought it was fun to practice, and I just wanted to get better."
Despite her fame as Miss Topeka and as a finalist in the Miss Kansas contest, both in 1977, Post said she has never forgotten her KU roots. In fact, she has revealed in them.
Since 1988, she has coached the junior Hawkettes, a group of girls from Topeka who dance at one basketball game and one football game every year. Before the games, the Hawkettes would sell about 400 tickets. Post also coaches the 1,000-member Topeka Jayhawk Club, which donates at KUparades and hancuets SheaLorais funds
dances at KU parades and banquets. One also raises funds for the KU cheerleaders by providing clinics in pom and baton.
"I just think, 'How can I help the University? I don't have thousands of dollars to donate." So this is one thing I can do," Post said.

Post lived in Oliver and Naismith halls as a student and graduated with a master's degree in English education in 1978. She lives in Topeka now with her husband, Blake, and their 10-year-old daughter, Belinda.
And, yes, both KU mascots did show up for the Post wedding.
"They weren't there at the Catholic ceremony ... no, no, no," she said. "But they came to the reception."

Former queen remembers a lost tradition
Alumna recalls decade of turbulence, change
By Nadia Mustafa Special to the Kansan
Susan Wassenberg was disappointed when the University of Kansas ended the homecoming queen tradition in 1970.
I will not give you the flowers, I will not give them to you. I'll just give you a bouquet of flowers that I made for you.

Wassenberg, now Susan Thompson, 49, was the second-to-last homecoming queen, crowned when she was a junior in 1968. Thirty years later, she is a special education teacher with four grown children and lives with her husband in Liberty, Mo.
Thompson said she agreed that a queen did not mix with the tenor of the time, but she said she still was upset about the loss.
"It was the 1960s, and they deemed homecoming queens irrelevant," Thompson said. "You lose something when you get rid of a tradition."
The 1970 Homecoming Committee, made up of 12 students and staff members, unanimously agreed it was inappropriate for a university to select one woman to represent a multi-cultural community. The committee said it was more appropriate to recognize students for academics.
During the homecoming ceremony, one male and one female student with strong academic records are recognized. The Board of Class Officers awards the students $500 and the opportunity to coordinate a spring leadership conference.
The last homecoming queen was Janet Merrick, crowned in 1969. The Alumni Center does not have records of Merrick's current address.
After decades of dormancy, the tradition was replaced in 1991 by the EXCEL award, which stands for Excellence in Community, Education and Leadership.
Last year, the scholarship halls began a homecoming tradition. Each hall nominated a resident for royalty. Charity donation boxes with each nominee's name were placed each hall. The male and female residents with the most donations were crowned at a dance that also served as a canned food drive. The halls raised $500, which was donated to the Pelathe Indian Center.
Sarah Crumrine, Olathe sophomore and All Scholarship Hall Council programming chairwoman said the contest was fun.
Thompson said that when she attended the University, her favorite part of college life was her involvement in her sorority. She said that the sorority was an active campus group that participated in many joint activities with fraternities. She said that now she was starting to become active as an alumna.
While at the University, Thompson competed in the Miss Kansas pageant as Miss Lawrence, was involved in Student Union Activities, Panhellenic Association and the Angel Flight drill team, an auxiliary to the Reserve Officers Training Corps.
She remembers the decade as a time of constant change.
"KU students were very opinionated, and there was a lot of nonviolent protest," Thompson said. "The war was in full swing, and students were politically active and always questioning. We were intellectual but also very emotional because of the issues of
the time."
Despite the unsettled background, Thompson said she enjoyed the University's atmosphere during her college years.
Thompson said because homecoming was an important event during the 1960s, most student groups constructed elaborate floats for the Massachusetts street parade.
She said she remembered the ceremony and dance at which pop singer Andy Williams and country singer Roger Miller performed.
"It poured at homecoming, and we had to hold the ceremony under umbrellas. My suede shoes were ruined," she said. "But I got to talk to Roger Miller, and I took a birthday cake up to Andy Williams and he kissed me."

Popularity of float entries sinking in annual parade
By Matt James
Special to the Kansan
Organizations across campus say they are having increased difficulty finding the time and resources to build floats for the 1998 homecoming parade.
Fewer groups have entered floats during the last few years, and the trend will apparently continue this year when the annual parade takes place at 2:20 p.m. today. The parade will go from the Chi Omega fountain to the Kansas Union.
"Traditionally, greek organizations are over-programmed during the month of October," said Libby Sigg, president of the Panhellenic Association. "To build a float, an entire chapter has to be involved in the project and many find it difficult to commit the enormous amount of time that is necessary."
Of the 43 social fraternities and sororities and numerous student, campus and community organizations, which are all eligible to enter, only 12 applications for floats had been submitted as of Oct. 14, said Tracie Schuler, Student Union Activities graduate adviser. The deadline for applications was Oct. 13, but late entries can still be submitted at the SUA office.
Jim Dore, homecoming chairman for Delta Upsilon, said that his fraternity would be cosponsoring a float with Delta Gamma sorority this year but understood why many organizations did not.
"The hardest part is deciding on an idea for the float and getting it built in such a short time," Dore said. "Finding a trailer to build it on can be tough, not to mention the fact that a

nice float can become expensive."
Floats must be entered in one of three categories: mobile with moving parts, mobile with non-moving parts and decorated cars or pickup trucks. Floats are judged by an anonymous panel selected by the Board of Class Officers.
Each float is judged on creativity, adherence to theme, technical complexity and display condition. A plaque is presented to the best float in each category. This year's theme is "Tangled Up in Crimson & Blue."
The parade, which will feature the KU marching band as well as local high school bands, is sponsored by SUA, the Board of Class Officers and the Student Alumni Association.
In past parades, sororities and fraternities have co-sponsored floats to ensure that they would have plenty of help in the building process.
Even with the decline in participation, greek organizations still dominate the parade. Of the 12 groups registered for the parade, eight are being co-sponsored by fraternities and sororities.
Not everyone attributes the lack of participation to time and resources. May Harrell, social chair for the International Student Association, said that there was a campus perception that the parade was a greek event.
"I wasn't even aware that other organizations could participate," she said.
The history of the parade has been filled with change and controversy and dates back before World War II, said John Mullens, assistant KU security director. The parade itself was replaced in the mid 70s by house displays when Greek organizations constructed homecoming decorations in their front yards. The lines of cars to see the displays created such a traffic jam that the parade seemed a better choice, he said.

Party schools show zeal for homecoming events
By Jennifer Poisinelli
Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas may be the No. 8 party school, but when it comes to celebrating homecoming festivities, the Jayhawks do not hold a candle to the seven schools above the University on the Princeton Review's survey of top party schools.
Most schools hold the traditional homecoming parades, ceremonies and football game.
The review's party schools stand out by going above and beyond the homecoming call of duty. With everything from appearances by Bill Cosby to cameos by President Clinton, the southern states seem to have the most elaborate homecoming festivities.
The University of Florida, rated No.3 on the Princeton Review survey, holds the largest student-run pep rally, said Matt Crist, Floridajunior.
"Students from the nation's other schools come to watch our homecoming so they can get suggestions on what to do for theirs," Crist said.
The pep rally, known as the Gator Growl crowds 75,000 people into the stadium. Comedians, such as Ray Romano from the television series Everyone Loves Raymond, perform after the pep rally.
Florida's homecoming has featured appearances by President Clinton, George Bush, Greg Kinnear and Conan O'Brien. Comedian acts have ranged from George
Burns to Billy Crystal to Jerry Seinfeld.
The University of Georgia, rated No.4 on the party-school survey, will have comedian Bill Cosby perform the night before homecoming.
Georgia's "Meet the Players Night" invites all students to speak with athletes and get their autographs. Georgia's parade has alumni NFL players, other sports stars and country music singers ride on the floats.
Florida State, ranked No. 6 on the party school list, will feature comedian Jay Mohr from the movie Jerry McGuire.
Amy Crews, Florida State junior, said classes were put on hold during homecoming festivities.
"Homecoming is very hectic," she said. "During the week everyone is partying and missing classes."
The University of Wisconsin at Madison, ranked as the No.2 party school, holds the most homecoming contests, games and sporting events. Events include a golf outing, yell-like hell, swap day and a spirit parade.
The University of Colorado at Boulder, ranked No.5, and the University of Kansas will have less elaborate homecoming festivities than their party peers.
Jason Ziemianski, Mission Hills senior, said he was not even aware of the University's homecoming events this year.
"I haven't heard much of anything about homecoming, and I've been going to school here for three years," he said.

Cheers and spirit keep tradition alive
Alma Mater, Rock Chalk chant bring crowds together at games
By Chris Borniger
Special to the Kansan
Generations of KU students — past and present — are bound together by at least one thing: the cheers, chants and traditions surrounding KU sports.
Singing the Alma Mater, the Rock Chalk Chant and waving the wheat all are examples of a tradition that football coach Terry Allen said is paramount at the University of Kansas.
"It's something people can believe in and have believed in over the years," he said. "I know the tradition is really special here."
Tim Bateman, Lawrence sophomore, said he enjoyed participating in sports traditions because it enhanced the experience of a sporting event.
"It brings everybody together," he said. "Everybody is doing something at the games. It kind of feels like one big cheer."
Bateman said that waving the wheat was his favorite traditional fan activity.
Mou an a
"The energy just depends on whether or not we're winning," he said.
The spirit of these chants and songs can
be even influential to a game's outcome, said spirit squad coach Ty Washington.
"They play a major role," he said. "They need to be instilled in people watching the games, so if the score gets close, we try to get the crowd to rally behind the team. I think it helps a lot of people feel pride in their team, too."
In November 1919, an issue of the
Mount Oread magazine included an article about the support for annual celebrations and a movement to instill a sense of tradition at the University to make homecoming more significant for alumni. Since then,homecoming has been the source of several traditions.
The Baby Jay mascot, for example, arrived during halftime of the 1971 homecoming game. Workers hauled a massive
egg to the 50-yard line, and Baby Jay "hatched" soon after. Baby Jay played another part in homecoming history in 1978 when the costume was stolen and returned just in time for homecoming festivities.
Other homecoming traditions have come and gone. Alfred Hill, the University's first homecoming organizer,
intended for Kansas to play Missouri or Nebraska every year. Activities such as Hobo Day, bonfires and a nightshirt parade died out in the 1950s. A Rock Chalk Cairn, a mound of stones built as a memorial, was constructed in 1919 next to what is now Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall. It was damaged, vandalized and relocated before its destruction in 1957.
Washington said traditions were a vital part of the homecoming game.
"Homecoming kind of runs itself," he said. "The energy is always up. We just try to keep them going."
The University's most famous traditions also are some of the oldest. Chemistry professor E. H. S. Bailey wrote the first Rock Chalk Chant version in 1886, but his Rah Rah Jayhawk soon became Rock Chalk Jayhawk, referring to the abundant chalk limestone in Lawrence. President Theodore Roosevelt reportedly
called it the greatest college cheer he had ever heard. When the Belgian king requested a typical college yell at the Olympic games in 1920, American athletes chose to perform the Rock Chalk Chant.
Crimson and the Blue, written in 1891 by professor George Barlow Penny, became an institution at sporting events shortly after Penny taught the song to the University glee club. The melody is based on Cornell University's school song, Far Above Cayuga's Waters, and an English folk song, Annie Lyle.
The school colors were not crimson and blue at first. Before 1891, the sports uniform colors were maize and sky blue. They were changed to crimson and blue to honor the school colors of John McCook, a Harvard graduate who paid for the University's first football field, and Frank Strong, a Yale graduate and KU chancellor.

Jayhawk paraphernalia may be expensive
By Sarah Hansen
Special to the Kansan
Homecoming brings together students, alumni and fans, all proudly wearing the Jayhawk gear.
Chad Wilkerson, manager of Jayhawk Spirit, 935 Massachusetts St., said homecoming weekend always brought in a lot of Jayhawk paraphernalia sales
There are dozens of places that sell KU t-shirts, but Jayhawk Spirit also offers a line of high-priced KU items.
"We are overstocking nearly everything for the weekend," he said. "It's a great time when everyone has the University of Kansas on their minds."
Some of the more unique items at Jayhawk Spirit include Jayhawk birdhouses, Jayhawk clocks, stained glass Jayhawks, pictures of the KU campus and Jayhawk jewelry. These items can cost anywhere from $30 to $400.
"We also have some leather jackets that run from $200 to $1,000," Wilkerson said.
Shana Schroeder-Ebel, manager of Prairie Patches, 811 Massachusetts St., said that homecoming was a huge weekend for sales. Prairie Patches also carries a wide selection of high-priced Jay-

old, he has been a Jayhawk fan," Klein said. "I guess that's where it all started. We have a couple of paintings, a basketball signed by the '97-'98 basketball team and a stained glass Jayhawk."
She said that they also had a rug and some other small items but that the basketball was probably the most expensive item they had. They bought it at an auction for about $400.
The Alumni Association also offers several items for high-dollar school spirit.
Donna Neuner, director of membership services at the Alumni Association, said that the association had a small marketing program. A catalog is mailed that features some special

items that are from the campus bookstores to all of members. The catalog offers Jayhawk golf clubs, a KU version of Monopoly. Jayhawk playing cards, Jayhawk pasta, Jayhawk cookware and Jayhawk fishing lures.
"The items that we do sell are only sold through the Alumni Association," Neuner said. "We have some more expensive items like sweaters, ties, gold lapel pins, rings and watches. They run anywhere up to $350."
Two of the more prominent items are the 6-inch and 12-inch bronze replica statues of the Jayhawk that stands outside the Adams Alumni Center.
Neuner said that although the sales of these items did not increase because of the homecoming weekend, they did well the entire year. She also said that the items were a great way to bring out the classic KU spirit.
Although there is a large market for these high-priced items, Cassandra Wilbur, Newark Valley, N.Y., sophomore said that she found this kind of school spirit to be too expensive.
"I have a Jayhawk jacket, sweatshirt, T-shirt and a shot glass," said Wilbur. "But I'm just not into that high-priced stuff."
Providing parking a good way to bag bucks
By Monica Juarbe
Special to the Kansan
On Friday nights before home games, Amy Kratzer, Wichita junior, has to move her car so her landlord can rent out the apartment complex's parking spaces to the home football fans.
"He could park, if he really tries, probably 40 cars in the lot." Kratzer said.
This weekend's homecoming means that a lot of alumni and parents will be in town for the big game and will need a place to park. Students and landlords near the stadium see the demand and rent their lawns and driveways for visitor parking, and they often make a tidy profit.
Some students may be forced into special accommodations for the visitors.
Kratzer, who lives at 11th and Mississippi streets, said her landlord sent out a letter that said that they had to move their cars on Friday nights when there was a
football game the next day so he could use all the spaces in the lot.
"The people that park in the lot have become friends over the years. They keep coming back so it's become more of a social thing than financial," said Rod Russell, Kratzer's landlord and owner of Russell Enterprises.
Kratzer said she had never had a problem with it, because her father parked in her lot.
"For the last three years, we've been parking in this lot, and, now that I live there, it's no problem for me to move my car as long as I remember to the night before," she said. "And my dad gets free parking, because we've known my landlord for so long."
Kratzer said her landlord charged $10 a car usually and $20 a car for the Kansas State games.
"I don't think my neighbors like to do it," Kratzer said. "I don't really mind that
he makes $10 off of where my car used to be."
Scott Strawn, Lawrence graduate student, said he did not see a problem with owners renting out their lawns.
"When a person owns a piece of property, they should be able to do what they want with it," he said. "And if they rent and the landlord said that it's OK, then who cares?"
Cathy Meissner, Fargo, N.D., graduate student, said she rented out parking spaces last year when she lived at 19th and Naismith streets.
"Five dollars is all we've ever charged," said Meissner. "I couldn't really go any higher, because the church next to us charged five dollars."
She said some fans lined up parking for the whole year. She charged $70 for a yearly parking space on her lawn.
"The only problem with it was that if they're parking in grass and one of our
neighbors calls and complains about it, then the Lawrence police can come and issue a $25 parking ticket to the owner," Meissner said. "I had that happen once. One of our neighbors was just being mean, and he called up the police.
"After we got that ticket, we didn't let anyone park any more on our grass. We just parked them in our large driveway," she said.
With only 23 spaces available at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread St., and the increased demand during homecoming, the Rev. Thad Holcombe, campus pastor, said his church had to turn some drivers away.
"We're handy, and we also don't block people in," Holcombe said. "We do it because we have the space available, and it also helps out with special projects. We have an alternative spring break that we contribute it to, and we have a volunteer intern placement and other expenses."

KU students from Colorado face question of allegiance
By Traci Miller
Special to the Kansan
When Kansas beat Colorado in 1995, Justin LoBurgio, Littleton, Colo., senior, had to call his friends and rub it in.
The last two years, his friends have returned the favor by calling him and throwing defeat in his face when Colorado beat the Jayhawks.
Every year, approximately 350 Colorado students go to school at the University of Kansas, according
to Office of Institute Research and Planning figures.
These KU students have to decide which side to sit on and for whom to cheer.
"KU is my school, so I would sit on the KU side," said Diane Gillette, Colo-
KU
san Diane Glicette, co. rado Springs, Colo., junior. "I did grow up in Colorado, but its schools were so expensive, and out-of-state tuition for KU cost about the same. KU is a good school, and I didn't want to go to school where the rest of my high school friends did."
Sometimes students choose to cheer for Colorado.
sometimes students choose to cheer for Colorado. "I will sit in the KU stands, but I will be rooting for Colorado," said Daniel Olson, Loveland, Colo., freshman. "I don't feel like I am betraying Colorado for sitting in the KU stands."
For some Coloradans, the University has become their home, and they do not think about being from Colorado anymore.
Laura O'Donnell, Colorado Springs, Colo., freshman, said that she came to the University to get
away from her friends and that it felt more like home than Colorado.
"I would sit on the KU side," she said. "I don't feel like I am betraying Colorado by cheering for KU, because I go here, and I feel like I live here."
Where to sit also is a decision that students from Colorado must make.
"I am not sure where I am going to sit," said Courtney Burbridge, Denver senior. "I usually just sit wherever, but I am not a die-hard Colorado fan. I don't feel like I am betraying Colorado at all by cheering for KU."
Burbricla said she also decided not to attend school in Colorado because she wanted to get awav.
"I chose KU because I knew I wouldn't go to class as often in Colorado, and I needed to get away," she said. "Plus, KU had a better graphics program than Colorado."
Last year, Colorado beat Kansas in football. LoBurgio said this was not what he had hoped would happen.
"I was kind of mad about the outcome last year, because I got heat from people back home, and they threw it back pretty hard, because when KU won I called them and rubbed it in," he said.
CU
LoBurgio said that all of his family was from central and northeast Kansas and that he grew up wanting to go to the University of Kansas.
"I am definitely going to sit in the KU student section," he said. "I never liked any Colorado sports. When rooting for KU, Colorado fans are annoying."

Alumni reunite to celebrate memories of years at Kansas
By Jaime L. Mann
Special to the Kansan
It has been years since they were students at the University of Kansas, but alumni still feel the Jayhawk spirit when they return for Homecoming Day.
Robert Boyer, 1958 KU graduate and Kingman physician, is one of more than 100 KU alumni who is planning to attend his 40th reunion at homecoming this year. He said visiting the University makes him remember all the experiences he had here.
"Reunions are especially important to me as they bring back memories of people, whether they are there or not," he said. "I can still remember sitting with a friend of mine studying on the Hill below the Campanile some 40 years ago."
In the late 1950's, Burton W. Martin was the dean at the University, Earth Angel and The Hop were hits, drive-ins were the places to take a date and Elvis Presley graced the covers of popular magazines.
Donna Neuner, director of membership services of the Adams Alumni Center said reunions were a great way to keep lasting relationships with KU alumni.
"The class reunion program is one of several programs that the alumni association conducts," she said. "The

The weekend-long reunion will start at 6:30 p.m. today at the Adams Alumni Center with a social gathering and dinner. Alumni will also attend the KU parade and football game together.
Eugene "Gene" Paris,1958 KU graduate and Overland Park resident,said he loved reunions.
"I get a nostalgic feeling as I walk across campus again," he said. "I am really looking forward to seeingsome of the friends I made some 40 years earlier."
According to Neuner, the reunion should attract between 100 and 150 guests.
Some KU students of the class of 1998 said they hoped there would be
reunions for them 40 years from now.
Sarah Scherwinski, 1998 KU graduate, said reunions were magical.
"There is something about class reunions that are so special," she said. "You get the opportunity to travel back in time. The reunion reminds you of a place or environment that means a lot to you and still does. It's as if you are traveling in a time machine. Your age is different, but the structures are all the same. It is quite surreal."
Kelly Leyden, also a 1998 KU graduate, said she would always be a Jayhawk in spirit.
spirit.
"KU has a special place in my heart," she said. "I will always have a spirit for this school. It is wonderful to have been a part of such strong tradition."
The class of 1958 reunion marks the class's second reunion in 40 years. The first reunion was 25 years after graduation.

Homecoming 11
Lawrence then and now
As KU alumni return through the years, they have noticed changes in the city. New establishments have moved in, replacing the alumni's old hangouts, but memories are still vivid.

Hangouts change; students' needs stay the same
By Jamie Knodel
Special to the Kansan
As University of Kansas alumni filter back to Lawrence for this homecoming weekend, not all of their old hot spots are still hot or still standing.
Although student hangouts have come and gone, a few KU haunts transcend generations and still attract students.
Hangouts have long distracted students from their studies.
When Sue Farley, class of 1958, was a KU student, she said that the social focus was not on drinking.
"KU having a reputation as a party school is something new," she said. "When I was there, KU was the study school, MU was the party school."
The Wagon Wheel Cafe, also known as The Wheel, was a favorite in the '50s. The environment and the location made it an attractive place for students to get together. Farley said.
"Students did not have cars to take them here or there, so they were limited as to what was the closest place to walk," she said.
Farley said that most students lived on campus and that The Wagon Wheel Cafe, at 507 14th St., was just a short walk away. If students craved hamburgers and french fries, they had many options. Big Buy Burger, 2300 Iowa St., now Furrs Cafeteria, was the most popular hamburger stand in Lawrence, Farley said. Moore Burger, at 1414 W. Sixth St., was a
competitor for students' appetites then, but now the location houses American Family Insurance and Vanity Beauty Shop.
Things were different in the '60s, when most college students still had to be in by midnight. Although the administration attempted to put a damper on late-night activities with a campus curfew of 11 p.m. throughout the week and 12:30 a.m. on weekend: Loneta Schmollinger, class of 1969, said she managed to go out and still avoid being locked out of her dorm.
Drinking was legal at 18 and was widely accepted, Schmollinger said. Wednesday night was the big night on the town, and much of the action took place at Massachusetts street locations. Voo Doo Hut, 1009 Massachusetts St., now Louise's, was not much more than a crowded basement with a bar, but usually drew large crowds. The biggest crowd, however, was always at the Red Dog Inn, she said.
"It was just a typical bar, beer served in pitchers, popcorn on the table, but they always had live music," Schmollinger said.
Live music such as Ike and Tina Turner drew in crowds.
When the music stopped playing at the Red Dog Inn, 640 Massachusetts St., Liberty Hall Theatre moved in.
When students could find a way to go some place other than the Massachusetts Street hangouts, Schmollinger said
"KU having a reputation as a party school is something new. When I was there, KU was the study school, MU was the party school."
Sue Farley KU alumna, class of 1958
the Tee-Pee was often their first choice. Although it was out of town, on Highway 40, it still managed to draw a lot of students.
"Maybe it was because of the fact that the bar was inside of a teepee-shaped building that made it fun," Schmollinger said.
The Tee-Pee is still there but is now part of the KOA Campgrounds.
For KU students in the '60s, it was not hard to choose where to go for late-night food. There just were not many options.
"Everyone went to Joe's Bakery late at night. It was the only place open where you could get food." Schmolinger said.
Joe's is still on Ninth Street but ownership has changed since the '60s.
Steve Wyman, class of 1976, was not looking for doughnuts late at night. He only craved one thing — the Vista Burger basket. So, Vista Burger, now Quick's Bar-B-Q, 1527 W. Sixth St., was
where he went. Wyman wasn't alone, he said.
"Everyone went there for munchies after the bars closed," he said.
Susie Briley, class of 1974, said she could remember another hamburger joint that came alive after the bars' closing times. Griff's Burger Bar, 1618 W. 23rd St., had a fun atmosphere because of the phones in each booth that customers used to call in their order directly to the kitchen, she said. Today, Pat's Blue Rib'n BarbeQue occupies the lot.
Wyman said he spent a lot of time at the Dugout, 925 Iowa St., in what is now Fifi's Restaurant. The Dugout had more than just drinks. It also had early computerized baseball games.
"I probably went to the Dugout more than I went to class," Wyman said.
Briley's husband, John, class of 1976, was more faithful to his hangouts. He said that Louise's, then at 1017 1/2 Massachusetts St., was about the only place he ever went, because of its large drinks called schooners. Louise's has since moved down the street, and International Beadtrader is at its old location.
Although Louise's was his favorite, John Briley said he managed to make it to The Flamingo, 501 N. Ninth St., a few times while at the University. "The Bird," as it is still known, is a 21 club.
"It was different from the other bars, because they had drink specials, and about all you could get everywhere else was tapped beer," John Briley said.

Task force examines student-fee allocation
Group will compile report concerning legal guidelines
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Legal guidelines for student-fee allocation at the Kansas Board of Regents' universities will be the subject of a report issued by a special task force formed by the Regents.
The Task Force on Mandatory Student Fees emerged from a special Regents council that deals with student affairs. The eight-member task force is headed by Lisa Heath, assistant vice president of student affairs at Fort Hays State University.
Heath said the task force would not make any recommendations or binding rulings. Group members simply will issue a report by the end of the year that compiles recent legal
information regarding fees, and universities will make their own decisions based on the information
"Our purpose is to take a look at some of the interesting legal challenges there have been to student fees," Heath said. "We are not setting policy."
University of Kansas representatives on the task force are Kevin Yoder, student body president, and Linda Mullens, assistant vice chancellor of student affairs.
Campus fees (Lawrence)

Student health $69.50
Student-health buildings' maintenance, repair, and equipment $1.50
Student-health buildings additions $15.00
Student Union building $22.50
There have been several controversial student-fee decisions this semester at the University, including those regarding financing for the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, a First Nations powow and the Love-line program.
Student Union renovation $18.50
Student Senate activity $22.00
Karen Dutcher, the University of Kansas' associate general counsel, said that in 1993, the Kansas attorney general's office had released an opinion on student-fee distribution that serves as a guideline for Kansas educational institutions.
Student media $3.00
Women's and non-revenue intercol.
sports $20.00
Educational-opportunity $6.00
Recreational services $13.00
In the opinion, then-Attorney General Robert Stephan said student fees could support political and ideological speech as long as the money was used in a non-discriminating way and for educational experiences and opportunities.
Campus lighting $2.00
A case recently filed against Miami University in Ohio concerns students seeking to stop a university policy that does not allow student fees to be used for religious activities while allowing financing for other ideological groups.
Child-care building construction $4.00
Campus-transportation $16.00
Campus-enviroment $1.00
A court ruled this year that the University of Wisconsin-Madison could not force students to finance campus groups with political or ideological activities with which students do not agree. The ruling was upheld in an appeal.
"Our funds cannot be used for partisan or religious activities." Numrich said.
Julie Numrich, Student Senate Student Executive Committee chairwoman, said that Student Senate followed guidelines in determining student-fee distribution.
She said political and religious groups could receive money for administrative purposes but not for activities that include people who are not members of the organization.

Victory sparks post dunking

Kansan staff writer
The athletic department facilities employees worked overtime Saturday night, fishing pieces of Memorial Stadium's 30-foot goatshots from Petter Lake.
"It was a big game, and students acted as a product of the excitement," said
Josh Gaunt Wichita freshman.
Gaunt said that he ran on the field and helped pull down the post. He said that other students boosted him up so that he could ride it down the field.
"I sat up there for 5 or 6 seconds before I got bucked off and fell," he said. "At least I landed on my feet."
After students removed the south goal post, they turned and headed toward the north side of the field.
Despite a police blockade, that post came down too.
"Our intent was to discourage them, but once the masses got too big to contain, we pulled out and let the students have it," he said.
As fans stormed the field and carried the goal posts to Potter Lake, football announcer Howard Hill warned them to be careful.

Sgt. Mark Witt of the KU Public Safety Office said that the police officers tried to stop students from running on the field.
But still, people fell from the posts or got pushed in the water.

David Stephanchick, Overland Park freshman, said that he took an unwanted swim after the goal post he was carrying was pushed into him.
At least one student, Phillip Gross, Glencoe, Ill., freshman, was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after he was hit on the
"I didn't get trapped under the water by it, but I had to wait underwater until the post had rolled over me," he said.
Darren Cook, director of facilities for the athletic department, said that about 70 to 80 percent of the goalposts had been recovered from the lake. He said that these pieces were pretty useless,

Shock rocker Marilyn Manson draws diverse group of fans
Halloween came early to Massachusetts Street as more than 650 Marilyn Manson fans, dressed in their best gothic attire, waited to see the shock rocker play at the Granada last night.

Kansan staff writer
The concert was the warm up show for Manson's "Mechanical Animals World Tour" that kicks off tonight at Memorial Hall in Kansas City, Kan.
The show started at about 9:15 p.m., but fans began lining up along Massachusetts Street at 5:30 p.m. to reserve a spot near the stage. The early-comers finally were let in to the venue, 1020 Massachusetts St., when the doors opened at 7 p.m.
"I think it's awesome to see the diversity," said Amanda Duling, Columbus sophomore. "I think anyone could be a Marilyn Manson fan."
Not all the fans who stood outside the Granada
The concert attracted a diverse group of music fans. Some dressed in black leather and white face paint, but others dressed in blue jeans and T-shirts.
had tickets for last night's show.
Jason Spencer, Topeka junior, waited outside the club with a sign that read "Will buy 2 tickets for $120." Concert tickets cost $17.
"I tried to win them from the Lazer today," Spencer said. "Manson is just one of those guys you have to see in your life."
The radio station KLZR, 105.9 The Lazer, began giving away Manson concert tickets Thursday.
Alison Tempero, Lawrence freshman, had better luck than Spencer. She bought her ticket for $20 from a scalper before the show.
Tempero, a Manson fan since 1989, saw the shock rocker twice before in concert and said that she wanted to hear the song Suicidal Snowman.
Manson had played in Lawrence twice before, at Liberty Hall in 1997 and at the Granada in 1996.
Not everyone in front of the Granada last night was a Marilyn Manson fan.
A group of Fred Phelps' supporters arrived to a chorus of boos at 7:15 p.m. and protested behind a police barricade before leaving soon after 8 p.m.
KU professors hope Glenn's flight will send stereotypes to moon

space.
Mary Lee Hummert, associate professor of communication studies who studies the effects of stereotyping older adults, said she hoped the mission also would help prove the worth of older people.
"One stereotype of older people is that you can't learn new things," she said in a written statement. "John Glenn is saying it isn't as easy as it was at age 30, but I can do it, and I'm enjoying it."
Hummert said that she hoped the nation was backing Glenn for the right reasons.
"Glenn's flight at age 77 shows that our expectations for the contributions of older persons may
be too low," she said. "Those expectations may overemphasize the negative aspects of aging."
Hummert said that because Glenn had stayed in shape, he sometimes was viewed as the exception to the rule, rather than an example of older adults' potential.
"Generally, we don't appreciate our elders, but they really have a lot to offer," he said. "We tend to dwell on the negatives, like lessened physical ability."
Wayne Osness, professor of health, sports and exercise science said that older adults who had not trained as much as Glenn should not assume that they can not regain flexibility and stamina.
"The good news is as a result of our research, we can turn fitness levels around for people who have lost the flexibility to get out of bed," he said in a written statement. "They won't win any races, but many can get out of bed and go to the bathroom and back."
And older adults are more easily motivated to improve their fitness. he said.
Sweatte said he thought that was because people saw the importance of fitness when they begin to lose their virility.
Alan Potter, Iola sophomore, agreed.
"I think the older we get, the more dawns on us we won't live forever," he said. "But by the time we realize that, we've spent a lot of our life growing old and feel the weight of time pressing down on us. That creates a definite sense of urgency and motivation."

Case of missing rabbits leads police to suspect
Lawrence police arrested a 24-year-old Lawrence man at 4:02 a.m. Thursday at the Hampton Inn, 2300 W. Sixth St., for stealing potato chips, three rabbits and a pickup truck.
The man, who was living at the Inn, was suspected of burglarizing Pet World, 71.1 W, 23rd St., and Conoco, 2447 W. Sixth St., police said. He also was suspected of stealing a truck the same morning from an apartment in the 2200 block of West 25th Street and of attempting to rob Scales and Tails Exotic Pets, 2201 W, 25th St.
Police identified the man from a surveillance tape recorded during the Conoco burglary.
Police said they searched his room at the Inn and found several bags of potato chips that had been stolen from the Conoco. They also found a rabbit, one of three that had been stolen from Pet World.
The other two rabbits were found in the back of the stolen truck.
The suspect was arrested on one count of attempted burglary, two counts of burglary and one count of criminal damage to property.
His bond was set at $10,750.

Education bill marks $9.6 million for Kansas
WASHINGTON — The Clinton Administration's plan to reduce school class sizes will pay for the hiring of an estimated 246 more teachers next year in Kansas.
Kansas likely will get nearly $9.6 million to place more teachers in the early grades, according to figures released by the U.S. Department of Education
A down payment on the administration's seven-year plan to hire up to 100,000 new teachers nationwide is part of the massive $520 billion spending bill signed into law Wednesday. It provides $1.2 billion for more than 30,000 new teachers in the 1999-2000 school year.
Local school districts will be able to use their share to hire teachers in grades one through three, but districts with reduced class size may also use the money to shrink class size in other grades or improve teacher quality.
As much as 15 percent of the funds may go toward teacher testing and professional development and training for teachers.
Burning gas well slows retrieval of blast victims
BRYCELAND, La. — A natural gas well that exploded and killed six workers burned through the day yesterday, preventing authorities from retrieving the
bodies of most of the victims.
Emergency crews were preparing to enter the firey, twisted wreckage after cooling it with water and clearing a path to the bodies of five of the victims, state police spokesman Chris Johnson said. The body of the sixth worker was removed hours after the blast.
The explosion occurred Saturday afternoon in Bienville Parish, about 45 miles east of Shreveport, as 13 workers were preparing the new well to begin pumping natural gas.
Sunday, flames still shot 1,00 feet or more into the air as steam billowed over the site. Authorities said there was no threat of the fire spreading to nearby woods.
State authorities won't investigate the cause until the bodies are retrieved and the blaze is put out, Johnson said.
the bride.
Extinguishing the fire could take days, said Bruce Connery, spokesman for Sonat Exploration Co., which owns the well.
Two workers remained hospitalized yesterday. One was in critical condition and the other in serious but stable condition, Johnson said. Five other workers were treated at hospitals Saturday.
The names of the dead workers or the survivors had not been released because police were not sure whether all family members had been notified, Johnson said.

Street skirmishes follow West Bank peace accord
RAMALLAH, West Bank — Members of Yasser Arafat's political faction fought street battles yesterday with Palestinian security forces in an ominous outbreak of internal conflict stemming from the new peace accord.
The clash, representing a serious rupture within Arafat's ranks, followed a bid by Palestinian military intelligence to seize unlicensed weapons. That was among tough new security measures Arafat agreed to at last week's U.S. summit.
The fighting in the center of the West Bank town of Ramalah broke out as Marwan Barghouti, the leader of Fatah in the West Bank, was addressing a group of about 100 supporters outside the Palestinian Authority headquarters and the offices of Governor Mwasa Ifa
Some of the Fatal activists picked up stones and hurled them over a fence into the compound and at plainclothes intelligence agents who were watching the gathering from the sidelines, witnesses said.
Intelligence agents hurled rocks back at the crowd. But then some of the security agents fired from the second and third-floor windows, with some of the gunfire directed into the crowd. About the same time, armed Fathal members arrived on the scene, firing shots into the air.
Two men were hurt, including a Fatha activist who suffered a gunshot wound to the head. That silenced the gunfire on both sides, and leaders from both sides quickly withdrew for a meeting.
Remote-controlled bomb kills Chechen official
GROZNY, Russia — Chechnya's top anti-kidnapping official was killed yesterday when a bomb tore his car to pieces the day he was to launch a major offensive on hostage-takers in the breakaway republic.
Shadid Bargishv's two bodyguards were in critical condition after suffering serious injuries in the accident, and several passersby were also injured, doctors said.
Bargishev, 27, died on the operating table after losing both legs in the blast in the parking lot of the anti-kidnapping department office in the Chechen capital of Grozny, Chechen President Aslan Maskhadov's office said in a statement.
The remote-controlled bomb was planted just inside the gate to the parking lot. The Interfax news agency said.
The explosion came as law-enforcement officials were preparing a large operation to rescue people kidnapped in Chechnya. Bargishev's colleagues insisted they would not be intimidated by the attack and would go ahead with the offensive.
Other anti-kidnapping officials blamed the attack on Bargishev's recent success in securing the release of several hostages, including 24 Russian soldiers and an English couple.
More than 100 people are still being held captive in Chechnia, including three Britons, a New Zealander and a Turk, according to Interfax.
Hard-liners dominate Iranian assembly vote
TEHRAN, Iran — Even the losers praised the election for an assembly of Iran's ruling clergy, calling it a triumph for democracy.
However, the victory for hard-liners announced yesterday could set back moderate President Mohammad Khatami's reforms.
Conservatives won at least 54 places on the 86-seat Assembly of Experts in Friday's vote. Moderates won only 13 seats in the assembly, which oversees the country's supreme leader.
Sixteen seats went to candidates whose affiliation was unearl — but who probably lean toward the hard-line camp, and three others went to independents who are believed closer to the moderates
Yesterday's results came as no surprise because most moderate candidates had been dropped from the ballot in advance by the Council of Guardians, which determines eligibility and is dominated by hard-liners.
Saeid Laylaz is a member of the Executives of Construction party, which supports Khatami.
Even with just 15 percent of the seats, Layaz said the moderates still will have a substantial say in the oversight of the supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, and the choice of his eventual successor.

Earth science center to be established
The University of Kansas will receive $2.5 million from NASA and private contributors to establish the Great Plains Regional Earth Science Applications Center.
The money, which will be distributed during the next three years, will allow the University to finance the center and to begin satellite-mapping research.
Ed Martinko, director of the Kansas Applied Remote Sensing Program, said that the center would be one of nine in the country.
"We'll conduct both fundamental and applied research using satellite data," Martinko said in a written statement. "Our focus will be on vegetation analysis."
The work will help farmers predict harvests and help ranchers forecast the availability of hay for their cattle, said Kevin Price, Applied Sensing Program associate director, in a written statement.
In also will help resource managers predict the locations of fire hazards and wildlife managers to assess the health of vegetation vital to the survival of animals including pheasant, antelope and prairie chickens.

Candidate informs, performs on campus
By Chad Bettes
Kansas staff writer
Strumming a guitar, singing a patriotic song, and espousing his democratic principles, 3rd District congressional candidate Dennis Moore came to campus Friday in his second and last scheduled KU campaign appearance before the Nov. 3 elections.
A lunch-hour crowd of about 75 students gathered in front of Wescoe Hall to hear Moore, D-Lenexa, as he explained why he thought he should be sent to Washington instead of the incumbent, U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Olathe.
Some of the issues Moore addressed were education,health care and gun control.
Regarding education, Moore attacked Snowbarger's record on the voucher concept in which government funding can go to private schools when parents choose to send their children there. Another variation of this concept allows parents to receive a tax credit for private school tuition paid.
Moore said the voucher system would create a two-tiered educational system in which public schools would suffer.
"One tier would be for the best, brightest, and wealthiest," Moore said. "The second tier would be for everybody else."
After the speech, Moore said Snowbarger had voted for a voucher program for students in the District of Columbia and for a block grant to states that could partially be used for
state-based voucher programs.
Education issues like vouchers are traditionally decided on a state-by-state basis, not federally.
Regarding health care, Moore emphasized the need for universal health insurance for American children. He said a tax on cigarettes would be one way of paying for this.
"It is totally irresponsible to vote against the children." Moore said.
Moore said that there had been too much gun violence in the last two years and spoke against Snowbarger's position on gun control.
"We don't need more guns in the streets of lawrence." Moore said.
More urged students to get fired up about the upcoming election. He said there were important issues that should not be overshadowed by cynicism.
Danielle Shoemaker, Glasco sophomore, was at the campaign speech as a Moore supporter. She was pleased with the turnout and said she hoped students would give Moore a chance. In addition to his positions on issues, Shoemaker said Moore had another appeal.
To warm up the crowd, Moore started the event by playing and singing This Land Is Your Land.
"He even sings." Shoemaker said.

KU professor rewrites big bang for children
Melott wrote the book because of the lack of information available to
The book was a collaborated effort between Melott, professor of physics and astronomy, and Gaye Gronlund, an early childhood consultant in Indianapolis.
Adrian Melott's book "How We Happened: The Beginning of Everything" discusses the bigbang theory in terms small children can understand.
A University of Kansas scientist has co-wrote a book for children explaining the theory of the world's creation that he considers valid.
"This was a very difficult topic to keep it realistic to their age," Gronlund said.
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
Although Melott addressed how the world came to be, there were some questions in his book that he
"But there was information available regarding creationism, the theory that God created the Earth in seven days. We're just trying to get across that the thing started a long time ago. It started slowly." Melott said.

"We had to bring it down for children to understand. We kept trying to relate it back to children's experiences." Gronlund said.
"People have a right to know about everything. That includes kids." Melott said.
Gronlund said that the key to writing the book was relating it to the young child.

Melott also addresses the creation of humans in the book. But he explains that life on earth evolved.
He said that although the big-bang theory addressed how the world was created, no one really knew what happened before the first one-thousandth of a second that began the big bang.
"How We Happened: The Beginning of Everything" was written by Adrian Melot, KU professor of astrology and Gaye Gronlund, early childhood consultant in Indianapolis.
She said that as far as her children's knowledge of the subject was concerned, she teaches them what scientists find.

"Thirty or 40 years ago, I would not have written this book because the big-bang theory wasn't really supported." Melott said.
- The child's book, which explains the big-bang theory, has not been published yet.
Gronlund said that parents had been very responsive to the book.
The book has not been published, but Gronlund said that she and Melott are looking into self-publishing.

Phelps goes too far with picketing
Fred Phelps Sr.'s picketing of Matthew Shepard's funeral sent a new and dangerous message that cannot be ignored.
The Rev. Phelps has become a Kansas fixture, picketing churches, events and funerals for years. People certainly have not accepted Phelps, but many Kansans have decided to ignore him.
But it is impossible to ignore the message Phelps sent when he traveled to Wyoming to picket Shepard's funeral. Shepard, who was homosexual, died after being brutally beaten and robbed. The demonstration was not a new move for Phelps, who has picketed the funerals of many homosexuals.
Different this time, however, was how Phelps' target, Shepard, died. Most of Phelps' funeral picketing has been reserved to homosexuals who died of natural causes, sickness or old age. He has picketed the funeral of many people who have died because of
This was the first time that he demonstrated at a funeral of a murder victim.
complications of AIDS
But Shepard's death was not accidental or the result of a disease. He was beaten and murdered. By picketing Shepard's funeral, Phelps and his supporters sent the message that they somehow condone the murder and, in essence, the attack. This is a departure from Phelps' old message of simply preaching hate and isolation toward homosexuals.
It is a dangerous message, and it cannot be ignored. Many people have said that ignoring Phelps is the best method to combat him. Ignoring him, not talking about him and refusing to give him access to the media eventually will lead
to his demise and the weakening of his message, the argument goes.
But that policy has not worked. Phelps has gone from a Topeka anti-homosexual preacher to a national anti-homosexual crusader who was on every TV network newscast and cable news channel two weeks ago. The message has not weakened, and when Phelps picked Shepard's funeral, he showed that his message only has strengthened.
Phelps has said he does not condone murder but that homosexuals often get what they deserve — that it is God's plan, and Phelps will not stand in the way. But when those convictions preach that it is OK for a man to be brutally beaten, something is wrong.
People need to realize that Phelps is not a harmless preacher, but a man whose voice continues to rise above others because everyone else continues to speak softer. This time, Phelps message was the worst yet.

Hazing policies, attitudes must change
The numbers speak for themselves. Hazing still is a problem at the University of Kansas.
The problem that the University, the Greek community and individual students must work to solve is the attitudes surrounding the tradition of hazing.
Phi Kappa Theta has been accused of hazing one of its members, but that is not the most important issue that arose when the chapter was put on interim suspension last week.
The University seems to have been doing its part, making it clear that hazing and allegations of hazing will not be tolerated. Phi Kappa Theta, along with the seven other fraternities that have been accused of hazing in the last three years,
In the past three years, seven KU fraternities have been accused of hazing.
was put on interim suspension before the investigation started. This "guilty until proven innocent" mentality is not above questioning, but it should serve as an extra incentive for chapters to end their hazing traditions.
Students also seem to be taking a stand against hazing, evidenced by the fact that the number of reports has increased during the last three years.
ties should be the primary targets of investigations when an allegation of hazing is made. The University, particularly the administrators who regulate the Greek community, also must check themselves to see where their control of greek activities could be improved. Members of greek organizations and the student body in general must ask themselves whether they are allowing hazing to go on unreported.
However, the blame still must be shouldered by all sides. Fratern-1.
Hazing is an immature and outdated activity that should be eliminated from life at the University. What can each student, each chapter and each administrator do to aid in its removal? This is a question that must be focused on as the latest hazing investigation continues.

Women take back the night and open eyes to support

This year, however, my roommate was one of the event's organizers, and that was all the connection I needed. I had no real reason not to go.

If we could document how many people have experienced psychological abuse in their relationships, or how many women have felt objectified, the statistics would be mind-blowing.
Speaking about violence also validates the experience of others who cannot or will not speak about their own abuse. Too often we feel alone in our pain and even start to think abuse is normal. Some women spoke about how they began to believe that the psychological abuse and sexual abuse in their relationships was normal.
experiences and afterward the group marches down Massachusetts Street, protesting violence and demanding safety and security. Clearly the night is an empowering event for the survivors.
As I listened to these women speak, I started to examine my own relationships. I made a personal connection several times. This not only validates other's experiences, but it takes away the shame that so many people feel when they have experienced rape or abuse.
But it's more than that.
Last Thursday blew away this idea and the results were tremendous. Although nothing can take away the memory of a rape or abuse, by speaking about their experiences, their pain becomes valid.
I left Womyn Take Back the Night as a full participant. The connection and empowerment I felt with the other women was inspiring and uplifting. I hope that each year, more and more people come. I hope that our society develops more events like these to offer that support system that human beings need.
At the rally, organizers reported that one third of American woman will be raped, and half of all women have experienced abuse during their relationships. This is a startling statistic. But too often this fact is treated as just a number.
These women have names and faces, individual experiences and individual triumphs. As I sat in the women's circle at the park, I was moved by the stories and joyous for the triumphs. I admired their strength, and their pain brought tears to my eyes.
Our society does not have a support system for the survivors of these highly traumatic experiences. We are pressured to keep quiet, to deal with our problems on our own and to not let the experience affect our lives.
Even through I am not a victim of rape or abuse, I, and everyone else who just came to the park to listen, was an important part of the event. A speaker that night emphasized the strength in numbers.

Feedback
Guest columnist works for Sawyer
After reading a column in the Oct. 14 edition of the Kansan, I felt compelled to respond.
Guest columnist Jack Martin is hardly an unbiased observer as he works for Rep. Tom Sawyer's campaign.
I will not make the same mistake. I'll tell you up front that I'm on the campaign payroll of the Kansans for Bill Graves. A summer internship with the campaign led to my being offered a part-time job this semester. If someone is trying to influence your opinion in a column or a letter to the editor, you deserve to know their agenda.
As far as Sawyer's idea for a free ride for scholastically achieving students, two things should be noted. First, to pay for it, he'll completely pull the plug on the state's economic development efforts, leaving Kansas as the only state in the nation without a business recruitment capability. So Sawyer wants more college graduates, but fewer jobs?
Second, Gov. Bill Graves believes the state has a role to play in helping Kansas students get post-secondary schooling. This year alone, the Governor recommended and the state Legislature approved $14 million in state grants, scholarships and fellowships.
Finally, what's wrong with the notion of the college students helping to pay their own way? I know I speak for many on this campus when I say the knowledge and experience I am receiving in my part-time job will be just as valuable to me, if not more so. upon graduation.
Rather than pander to a select group of voters, Gov. Bill Graves is taking his campaign to every segment of Kansas society. His message is clear — ALL of the people of Kansas deserve to reap the benefits of our strong economy. When Bill Graves wins, all of the people of Kansas win.
Leslie Pritkin Chicago senior
Kansan covered Shepard well
Thank you very much for all of the coverage you have provided to the KU community about the death of Matthew Shepard in Wyoming two weeks ago and how it affected members of our campus in Lawrence.
The week was a very difficult time for many of us on campus. Even so, many wonderful people united together to support each other in the wake of this news, and your role in that process was significant. I really appreciate all the work you've done to inform and enlighten the campus community about the speak out organized by Queers and Allies, and the commemoration organized by the Student Development Center, which provided opportunities for members of our campus to grieve, become more informed and support one another.
Thanks also to Mike Miller, a guest columnist, who spoke from his heart in a column last week about how Matthew Shepard's death affected him and his awareness of crimes such as these. Mike's words touched me very much and helped to lift my heavy heart.

Students deserve praise for work
On Oct. 9 and 10, KU's National Pan-Hellenic Council sponsored the Black Greek Leadership Conference. Although many conferences, seminars and retreats take place at KU each year, this conference was a little different from the rest. This conference brought students from many different schools throughout the Midwest, including Kansas State and the University of Missouri, together to address a number of issues collectively and yet at no time did campus rivalry become an issue. All participants share the common goal of making a difference with themselves and on their respective campuses. The credit for the success of the conference
goes to the students who worked diligently to assure that each participant would have an engaging experience.
Robert N. Page Assistant director of admissions
Valid point against women's circle
Although the University of Kansas does an excellent job of rewarding and recognizing its faculty and staff, it is equally important to recognize our student leaders as well. I would like to take this opportunity to recognize the following students for their efforts in coordinating a wonderful conference: Tiffani Cunningham, Adrian Franks, Greg Smith, Erica Hawthorne, Ericka Morris, Tisha McCoy, Malik Abdul-Aziz, Kelly McClelland, Mike Bell, Keena McClennon, Floyd Cline, and Eric Tullis. It has been my honor to work with these students and they are truly an asset to the University.
The University of Kansas has some of the best leaders in the country who are dedicated to a relentless effort of giving back to others. The students who planned this conference spent many days and nights working to make this conference as we shared our laughter, tears and hope that we can make a difference.
Kudos to Michael Bannon for a courageous column. I am very close to someone who, years ago, was outed as a rapist at one of the "Truth Circles." He was ostracized and vilified because of one woman's inability to take responsibility for her own actions.
Her personal shame at doing something she was not proud of became reason enough, in her opinion, for her to denounce him publicly as a rapist. This kind of reactionary, slanderous activity not only hurts the innocent accused, but also the women who actually speak the truth when they name their attackers. Thank you for voicing this perhaps politically incorrect, yet valid, point to the student body.

Edwards Campus increases resources for student engineers
By Liz Wristen Kansan staff writer
Students taking engineering courses at the University of Kansas' Edwards Campus no longer have to travel to Lawrence to have their questions answered.
The University opened an office at Edwards Campus in Overland Park last month to serve as a resource for Kansas City engineering professionals interested in continuing their education.
Steven McCabe, professor and chairman of civil and environmental engineering at the Lawrence campus, will serve as program director of civil and environmental engineering at the Edwards Campus as well.
"We are seeing a large increase in the number of engineers who are going to school at night," McCabe said. "Civil engineering has been in Kansas City for 40 years, and we felt it was important to try and get a contact for those living in Kansas City who may have questions concerning the engineering program at KU."
McCabe said that some of the faculty from the Lawrence engineering department would fill time slots at the Edwards Campus location.
Lori Mah, Topeka senior and a civil engineering student, agreed
that the office was important to meet the needs of Kansas City students.
The University will be offering a new Master's degree in engineering this fall with a non-thesis option. This degree will be available at both the Lawrence and Edwards campuses.
Another engineering degree offered at the KU Edwards Campus is the Master of Science in Civil and Environmental Engineering with concentrations in general civil engineering.
The Edwards Campus also offers courses in four different areas of civil engineering. These include structural engineering, environmental engineering, water resources engineering, and transportation and geotechnical engineering, McCabe said.
"I think it is a good step that the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering has taken to expand the office there," said Carl Locke, dean of engineering. "It will better serve the students in the Kansas City community."
Janel Harting. Derby senior in engineering, said that she thought the office would provide a great service to the students at the Edwards Campus but that she

was concerned about the number of faculty members who would be working at both campus locations.
"I think the office is a great idea, just as long as it's not going to limit our resources," Harting said.
McCabe said that the faculty members serving both campuses would not limit the resources of Lawrence Campus students because the teachers would be serving the Edwards Campus weeknights from about 5 to 7 p.m.

Women's engineering programs aim to attract females to school
By Timothy Johnson Special to the Kansan
Female students entering the University of Kansas School of Engineering face a daunting obstacle. They are entering one of the most male-dominated fields of study and occupation.
"I don't know of many women my age in civil engineering," said Julia Gilmore, Clay Center sophomore.

Female enrollment in the school is 18 percent, with a high of 40 percent in chemical engineering and a low of six percent in mechanical engineering.
Women's Engineering Programs and the KU chapter of the Society of Women Engineers, a national organization that is open to all engineering students and faculty, are two organizations addressing the issue of low female enrollment.
Kelly Moylan, the coordinator of Women's Engineering Programs, said that the main objectives of these groups were to recruit more women to engineering, to retain the female students who already have entered the school and to improve student-faculty communications about gender-related issues.
She said that her group was a good contact for students looking for scholarship contacts and also served as students' first contact for issues of sexual harassment.
Many factors may discourage women from becoming engineers, including a lack of female role models and the attitude that engineering is not a viable professional choice for women, Moylan said.
Gilmore said that although she had not encountered this sentiment, she had female friends who were told that they should go into computer science because it is easier for girls.
The Society of Women Engineers and Women's Engineering Programs sponsor several events every year to change this attitude, including dinners where female engineering students can become more comfortable with job recruiters and programs to introduce female high school students to engineering.
The Society of Women Engineers has about 75 members. Moylan said that both groups hoped to expand.
Anyone who is interested in joining either group can contact the Society of Women Engineers by phone at 864-3620 or e-mail febold@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu.

Students celebrate tradition
Despite protests against Coca-Cola, homecoming parade goes on as planned
By Pallavi Agarwal and Julie M. Sachs
Kangan staff writers
Although most participants in Friday's homecoming parade cheered the University of Kansas, Delta Force used the opportunity to voice its views against commercialization on campus.
The homecoming theme was "Tangled Up in Crimson and Blue." Delta Force's demonstration included students tied in chains of Coca-Cola cans, and members carried signs saying "Tangled up in Commerce and Coke."
"We just wanted to say that we were around," said Partha Mazumdar, Pittsburgh, Penn., graduate student. "Students aren't here to be a commodity."
This year's demonstration, Mazumdar said, was more sedate compared to last year's when the group was armed with megaphones.
Despite the protesting partici pants, the parade continued as normal.
Delta Delta Delta and Sigma Alpha Epsilon won first place in the parade's float competition with their entry of a Jayhawk riding a buffalo.
Other first-place winners were Student Union Activities and the Kansas and Burge Unions in the best-decorated vehicle category, and Rock Chalk Revue in the best banner category.
The homecoming parade wound its way from the Chi Omega fountain at 2:20 and ended a few minutes later outside the Kansas Union.
Pumping up the pre-game mood were Chancellor Robert Hemenway and coach Terry Allen, who encouraged football fans and students to attend the Saturday game and warned the Buffaloes that the Jayhawks were ready and waiting.
The KU Alumni Band, the KU Marching Band, the KU spirit squads and several student organizations marched in the parade. The Black Student Union homecoming queen and king, Sheree Strong, St.

Louis freshman and Jonathan Macklin, Kansas City, Kan., senior, were also in the parade.
This year's Excellence in Community Education and Leadership Awards winners, Karen Isley, Sylvania, Ohio, senior, and Kevin Yoder, Hutchinson senior, followed later.
Several hundred KU students gathered on both ends of Jayhawk Boulevard, reaching out for candy and rooting for the parade members.
The event had been organized by the Student Union Activities, the Student Alumni Association and the Board of Class Officers.
Some, like Lucy McShane, Fairway freshman, found the enthusiasm refreshing.
"Even though it is a big school, it's really cool when people come together and take such pride in it," she said.
Other float winners were Kappa Delta sorority and Kappa Sigma fraternity, in second place, and Delta Gamma sorority and Delta Upsilon fraternity, in third place. Fourth place went to Kappa Alpha Theta sorority and Phi Gamma Delta fraternity.
Each of the winners was presented with a plaque.

even if they looked straight.

"It's not too hard to get new goal posts before next week," Cook said. "We've been in this position before, and we've gotten them here and painted in time."
The University purchases the goal posts from a company in Florida, but they are made in Oklahoma, he said.

The new goal posts will cost the University at least $6,000.
The rest of the goal posts were carried by students to various parts of Lawrence. One section, about 8 feet long, was carried into the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St., after the game.
"I was just sitting in a booth visiting with my friends when everyone started cheering," said Rene Meyer, Liberal senior. "I turned around and saw three or four people walk in with part of the goal post."
She said that they came in through the door and held the piece of the goal post inside for about 30 minutes before they left with it.
"Everyone was so excited," Meyer said. "It's nice to see that enthusiasm."
KU fans haven't torn down a goal post since Oct. 24, 1992, after a 27-10 victory against Oklahoma.
One goal post went into Potter Lake, while the other was passed around the east side of the
stands.
On Oct. 6, 1994, after a loss to Kansas State University, the K-State fans rushed the field and removed one goal post.
This Saturday's game against No. 4 K-State could result in more missing goal posts if the

"We'd have to buy another set, but that's fine," he said. "We'd love to beat K-State."
Sigma Alpha Epsilon dedicates new fraternity house
More than 400 students and alumni went to Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity Saturday afternoon to dedicate formally the chapter's new house.
"The house is a lot nicer than anything we ever lived in," said Jay Eidiger, Prairie Village resident and 1969 University of Kansas graduate. "I'm glad that they razed the house. It was pretty well shot

20 years ago."
The old fraternity house was demolished Sept. 21, 1996 to provide a more modern building. The new house has individual and group study areas, as well as a library, two computer rooms and Internet access to the KU computer systems, said Jesse Van Dyke, chapter vice president and Minneapolis senior.
It also has a new security system that scans key cards to allow them to enter.
"This place is beautiful — it's almost too nice." Van Dyke said. "It's something we can all be proud of."

Kansas rebuffs Colorado
Jayhawks stampede past Buffaloes despite loss of key football players
By Jodi M. Smith
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan soortwriter
Kansan sportswriter
Finally.
After three tortuous weeks of near misses and self-destructive games, the Kansas Jayhawks finally did something right.
In front of a packed homecoming crowd Saturday night at Memorial Stadium, the Jayhawks picked up their first conference win of the season.
But this one, unlike their previous win of this season against Alabama-Birmingham, wasn't a nail-biting overtime victory.
The Jayhawks stomped, trounced, bullied and blasted past the Colorado Buffaloes, 33-17.
"I feel very good," Coach Terry Allen said. "We've had so many struggles this year that no one can take credit for this except the kids in there. I think we're making up for lost time."
And it's about time.
there I think we are going to let Colorado back into the game after taking the lead. And there was no way the Jayhawks were going to let Colorado back into the game after taking the lead.
"They played really well, and we didn't," Colorado coach Rick Neuehlsel said. "Every time we tried to get back in it, they had an answer. They came up with the big plays, and we didn’t."
And the Jayhawks finally did what they've beer trying to do all year — eliminate mistakes.
Through four quarters of play, Kansas suffered no turnovers and was whistled for only four penalties.
Kansas played without five key players in their arsenal.
Two starters, quarterback Zac Wegner and center Chris Enneking, both suffered game-ending injuries early in the first quarter.

game.
This is the first time Kansas has beaten Colorado at Memorial Stadium since 1981, and they were led almost the entire way by reserve quarterback Jay Alexander, who was playing in only the second collegiate game of his career.

Starting defensive lineman Dion Johnson was suspended for violation of team rules.
"We had a lot of people going down out there but not a lot of people quitting out there, and that's obviously the encouraging thing and the exciting thing." Allen said.
And Kansas still won一大 big.
"Basically, we have a situation where Zac goes down and [Jay] Alexander's going in, and it's obvious that the way we were playing in the beginning it just wasn't going to work out," offensive lineman Justin Glasgow said. "We committed ourselves to step it up a level, which we did, despite

Five quarterbacks showed their skills Saturday
By Randy Withers
Kansan Sportswriter
Saturday night at Memorial Stadium, Jayhawk and Buffalo quarterbacks were officially added to the endangered species list.
Both teams' starting signal-callers were knocked from the lineup, and Colorado's third-stringer had to play.
All told, five quarterbacks played in Kansas' 33-17 victory against the 17th-ranked Colorado Buffaloes.
"Jay did a great job to replace Zac," Allen said. "We tried to keep it basic, but he still did things out there that we didn't expect. He showed great maturity and he made things happen."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said he was pleased with the play of backup Jay Alexander, who entered the game after starter Zac Wegner had to leave with a conclusion.
Alexander said that he couldn't have scripted a better scenario for coming into a game than as a backup quarterback.
"I was a little nervous at first," Alexander said. "I didn't really have time to think, I had to be ready."

said that it was preparation that is successful
preparation that allowed him to be successful "You can't think of yourself as a backup when you're in the game," he said. "You've got to be ready at anytime. You never know what could happen."
Colorado coach Rick Neuheisel would rather have avoided what turned into a cavalcade of Colorado quarterbacks. Starter Mike
Moschetti and backup Adam Bledsoe were both injured, leading to the appear-

leading to the appearance of third-string quarterback Gabe Leonard.
"Their backup quarterback outplayed our backup quarterback tonight," he said. "That's not to say that I'm down on Adam Bledsoe. It's a tough situation that he came"
"I was calm and confident until the very last play. We just got outplayed," Bledsoe said.
Bledsoe said that he tried to maintain his usually calm state of mind despite the situation when he entered the game.
Third-string Colorado quarterback Gabe Leonard played for the first time this season when Bledsoe went down.
Because work is "just wanted to try and move the ball, score a touchdown, and try and win the game," Leonard said. "But it didn't work out that way."
Despite the obvious questions regarding the Jayhawks' quarterback situation, Alexander was quick to quiet any talk of what some see as a looming quarterback controversy.
"I know my role as a backup, and that's up to the coaches, regardless," Alexander said. "I'm just going to keep doing what I do, play and practice hard."

Commentary
Guest coach observes inner workings of the'Hawks
I'm 1-0 as a Kansas football coach. Sorry, Coach Terry Allen, but I'm retiring.
This season, the football team invited Mary Ryan, director of new student orientation; Pam Houston, director of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences undergraduate center; Doug Houston (Fam's husband), professor of business; Kevin Yoder, student body president, and I to be guest coaches at Kansas games.
Saturday, at the invitation of the Athletics Department, I stood on the sidelines as a guest coach.
It's an attempt to familiarize more people at the University with the team and all that is part of a

Then Colorado scored a touchdown. Quarterback Zac Wegner didn't return to the game because of a concussion and starting center Chris Enneking stood on the sidelines with a separated shoulder.

"Let's finish it," said one of the offensive linemen.

Three minutes into the fourth quarter, Kansas had a six-point lead. Then linebacker Tim Bowers recovered a Colorado fumble and returned it for a touchdown.
said one of the assistant coaches. "Look at the clock."
The players' determination to have this game end differently than other games the team had lost in the fourth quarter was obvious.
Enneking, his injured right arm hanging at his side, screamed encouragement, the defense pestered the Colorado quarterbacks, and Winbush ran 65 yards for a final, clinching touchdown.

Just call Ohio State, UCLA, Tennessee and Kansas State college football's Big Four. Right now, anyway.
Wildcats hit No.4 slot in college football poll
The top-ranked Buckeyes, followed by No. 2 UCLA, No. 3 Tennessee and No. 4 Kansas State, held their spots for the third straight week in The Associated Press' top-25 poll.
Note: Hirescopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
A change took place below them as Florida State slipped ahead of idle Florida into the No. 5 slot. The Gators dropped to No. 6.
LION
Ohio State, 7-0 after a 36-10 win against Northwestern, received 64 of 70 first-place votes and 1,744 points from the sports writers and broadcasters on the AP panel.
UCLA (6-0), a 28-16 winner against California, had one first-place vote and 1,641 points, and Tennessee had three first-place votes and 1,617 points. Kansas State was next with two first-place votes and 1,565 points. The Volunteers (6-0) beat Alabama 35-18 and the Wildcats (7-0) routed Iowa State 52-7.
The Seminoles (7-1) beat Georgia Tech 34-7 Saturday, moving ahead of the Gators (6-1) by one point — 1,438,1,437
M
Nebraska, which held off Missouri 2013,
remained at No. 7, followed by No. 8 Texas
A&M. No. 9 Wisconsin and No. 10 Penn State.
Missouri (5-2), which entered its game against the Huskers at No. 19, moved up a notch to No. 18 after the close call at Lincoln, Neb. Last year, when Nebraska beat Missouri in overtime, the Tigers climbed the next day into the Top 25 for the first time in the '97 season.
Georgia, a 28-26 winner against Kentucky, was No. 11, followed by No. 12 Oregon, No. 13 Arizona, No. 14 Arkansas, No. 15 Virginia, No. 16 Notre Dame, No. 17 Syracuse, No. 18 Missouri, No. 19 Tulane and No. 20 Virginia Tech.
SCORPION
West Virginia, 34-31, fell eight places to No. 21, followed by No. 22 Michigan, No. 23 Georgia Tech, No. 24 Colorado and No. 25 Miami.
The Associated Press
Michigan and Miami are the new entries in this week's Top 25. Michigan (5-2) is back after a three-week absence, and the Hurricanes are back for the first time since early last season.

Women's rugby beats Pitt State
The tournament was scheduled to continue through today, but the results were not available.
The Kansas women's rugby team pummeled Pittsburg State 68-0 Saturday afternoon at Westwick Rugby Complex in Lawrence.
Coach John Wiley said that he expected a big game from the Jayhawks.
"The girls all played as a cohesive unit, and if we do that, we're not going to be easy to beat," he said.
Six players scored for the Jayhawks. The team improved the team's record to 7-1.
Kansas will face Oklahoma at Westwick next Saturday.
The Kansas men's rugby team lost to the Gorillas 29-0 in Kansas' second and final home game of the fall season.
"It hurts to lose the last home game," said Ryan Kiliany, Kansas City, Kan., senior. "We're putting this behind us, though, so we can focus on closing out with another positive note."
The men's team plays its final game of the season Saturday against Southern Methodist University in Dallas.

Vic Young Award yesterday as Iowa's outstanding amateur athlete.
LaFrentz honored by home state
DES MOINES, Iowa — Reaf LaFrentz, the Monona, Iowa native who became an All-America basketball player at Kansas, received the 1998
The Amateur Athletic Union of Iowa presents the award, which is determined through voting by the media, college sports information directors and AAU representatives.
LaFrentz completed his eligibility in March and was the No. 3 pick overall in the NBA draft, going to the Denver Nuggets. The 6-foot-11 forward, a two-time All-American, averaged 19.8 points and 11.4 rebounds as a senior and was named the Big 12 player of the year.
Previous Vic Young winners have included football player Troy Davis, wrestlers Tom and Terry Brands, basketball players Fred Hoiberg and Jan Jensen and track sprinters Kevin Little and Natasha Kaiser-Brown

Rice catches up to reception record
ST. LOUIS — Jerry Rice of the San Francisco 49ers didn't waste any time yesterday setting an NFL record for receptions in consecutive games.
Rice played in 184 straight games, breaking the mark set by Art Monk from 1980-95, with a 12-yard catch from Steve Young with only 27 seconds elapsed. The play was the 49ers' first of the game and came one play after Darnell Walker intercepted Tony Banks on the Rams' first play.
Rice missed 14 games last season with two serious knee injuries, ending his consecutive-game playing streak at 189. But the reception streak didn't end because Rice was not in uniform for any of those games.
The last time Rice was shut out was Dec. 1, 1985, in a 35-8 victory against Washington.

The fact that the Kansas volleyball team lost both of its matches against Colorado and Nebraska last weekend isn't the point.
Volleyball team undaunted by losses
By Laura Bokenkroger Kansan sportswriter
Weekend matches prove a learning experience
The point — and the thing it wants to remember against Oklahoma and
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas State this week — is the realization that it can play with the best of them.
VOLLEYBALL
The Jayhawks' goal before last weekend was to extend the matches
against their Big 12 Conference opponents as long as they could. And that's just what they did against No. 3 Nebraska on Saturday.
Despite losing badly to No. 13 Colorado Friday, the Jayhawks came back and battled against Nebraska, winning a game before falling three games to one.
The Jayhawks were disappointed
after the match against Colorado when the Buffalooes swept them three games to none, 15-2, 15-10 and 15-4. Coach Ray Bechard said the Jayhawks were their own worst enemy Friday night.
"The Buffaloes kind of ran over us tonight," Bechard said. "We didn't respond well in game one, and we came back and played well in game two. But it wasn't enough. We had too many serving errors, and that doesn't put us in a good position to win."
Setter Laura Rohde said that the team knew that its match against undefeated Nebraska the next night would be even more of a challenge.
I don't think we were mentally into it at Colorado. Rhode said. "We never play well at Colorado, and that's no excuse, but it was frustrating."
The Jayhawks started slow against Nebraska, losing the first game 15-4. Rohde said they played tentatively at the start and fell behind because they lacked confidence.
But after hanging with the Cornhuskers in the second game, the Jayhawks began to gain momentum.
"Our defense was amazing." Rohde said. "We were digging balls we haven't been digging all year. We passed extremely well."
Despite losing the first two games,
Rohde said that the Jayhawks' confidence was building, and she thought they were playing well enough to win.
The Cornhuskers, who previously had lost only two games all season, fell to the Jayhawks 15-11 in the third game.
"We didn't have anything to lose," Rohde said. "We just relaxed and played awesome."
In a hotly contested game four, the Jayhawks were leading 14-10 , but couldn't close out the win, losing 16-14. It was a disappointing game, but Bechard said the team was proud of the way they played.
"We had a shot," Bechard said. "It wasn't a fluke. We played our butts off tonight. We were about two inches on a call from extending it to a rally score game five. I'm really proud of the effort the girls showed out there tonight."
It was a ground-breaking night for the Jayhawks, and Rohde said that they had proved something to themselves.
The Jayhawks, who are now 13-9 overall and 3-7 in the Big 12 conference, will play Oklahoma at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday night at Allen Field House. The team will also play K-State at home this Friday at 7 p.m.
"We knew we had the potential and the ability," Rohde said. "We just needed to prove it."
Kansas soccer learns not to mess with Texas
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The first half usually is the better half of a game for the Kansas soccer team.
Before this weekend, they had conceded nine goals in the first half of all games this season. When the Jayhawks traveled to Texas and Texas A&M, the two teams racked up a combined seven goals in the first half, as the Jayhawks lost both games.
Kansas fell to 5-11-1 overall and 1-7-1 in the Big 12 Conference.
The Jayhawks took on the Longhorns at the Longhorn Soccer Complex on Friday, and it took Longhorn midfielder Nicole Ramirez 11 minutes to score.
Texas showed its offense by scoring
three goals between the 38th and 45th minutes. Forward Valaire Page, who scored the Longhorns' second goal,
Soccer Ball
Freshman forward Melanie Schroeder, who had her first career start against Texas, led
added another goal in the 50th minute, as Texas rolled to a 6-0 win.
the team with five shots, but Texas goalkeeper Cami Varnadore did not allow any goals.
Varnadore picked up her fifth shutout of the season, and Texas improved to 5-
Texas A&M forward Sharon Pickering put the finishing touch on the Aggies' tenth win of the season when she scored in the 74th minute.
Things did not improve yesterday when Kansas faced No. 24 Texas A&M. The Jayhawks allowed three goals before forward Lindsey Horner scored for Kansas in the 44th minute. It was the Jayhawks' first goal in 485 minutes, dating back to forward Erin Hon's goal in the first half against Oklahoma State six games ago.
"ROAD TRIPPING CASH!"
The Jayhawks travel next weekend to Boulder, Colo., to finish the conference season against Colorado. Sunday's match against the Wyoming Cowgirls will finish the season for Kansas.

Big 12 football goes down to the wire
It's becoming unwise to leave Big 12 Conference games in the fourth quarter. You're likely to miss something good.
The Associated Press
Take Saturday. All of this happened in the final period on a day of dramatic finishes:
—No. 7 Nebraska had to hold off No. 18 Missouri for the secondstraight year to win 20-13.
—Texas' Ricky Williams scored two touchdowns in the final 2:03 to rally the Longhorns past Baylor 30-20.
— Kansas had big touchdown plays to put away No. 24 Colorado 33-17.
No. 8 Texas A&M had to hold off
Texas Tech in the final minutes for a 17-10 victory.
"I'll take that sucker (victory)," Agries coach R C.
ATM
Slocum said after the Aggies' defense stopped Texas Tech for the last time with 1:40 left in the game.
The two blowouts came as no surprise. No. 4 Kansas State beat Iowa State 52-7, and Oklahoma State rallied in the third quarter to beat Oklahoma 41-26.
Nebraska survived its second-
M
straight escape against Missouri. The Tigers lost to the Cornhuskers in overtime last year after Nebraska tied them on a freak play. Missouri almost
tied the score in the closing seconds Saturday, but their failure allowed Nebraska to extend its home winning streak to 47.
Baylor was on its way to a big upset of Texas until Williams' touchdown runs of 14 and seven yards, the last one with 1:02 to play in a record-setting performance. Williams has scored an NCAA record 428 points, passing University of Houston kicker Roman Anderson, who had the record of 423 career points.
"I think for the first time in my career, I was in a position to help the team win," Williams said. "Usually, when a game comes down to the last three or five minutes, coach would want to go to the air."
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop threw three touchdown passes before leaving the game in the third quarter. Eric Hickson scored a school record 24th touchdown and, with 117 rushing yards, set the school career rushing mark of 2.268 yards.
"It's special for me because I've had a long career here at Kansas State, and I went through a lot of trials and tribulations, but somehow I seem to overcome them," Hickson said.
Tony Lindsay led Oklahoma State on six scoring drives in the Cowboys' first seven second-half possessions to wash away Oklahoma's 13-7 halftime lead.
"They were not stopping us at all," Oklahoma tight end Jason Freeman said. "Not one of their defensive guys can start on our defensive football team. They didn't stop us. We stopped ourselves."

Kansas outplays Colorado
Continued from page 1B
Despite good showing against ranked teams earlier this season, this is the first win for the Jayhawks against a ranked opponent since beating Oklahoma in 1995.
■ Running back David Winbush recorded a career-high 268 yards rushing, the fourth-highest on the Kansas single-game rushing yardage list. He is also the first Jayhawk this season to rush for more than 100 yards and with that performance, he became the 34th Jayhawk to rush for more than 1,000 yards.
career interception during the second quarter.
Alexander, after replacing Wegner in the first quarter, completed 11 of 18 passes for 115 yards all career highs.
Sophomore outside linebacker Tim Bowers had his first career start and first career touchdown when he recovered a Colorado fumble and carried it 48 yards. The touchdown gave Kansas a 26-14 lead in the fourth quarter, and they never looked back.
Not too bad for a banged-up Kansas team who is only 3.5,1.5 in the conference.
"Anybody that underestimates this team is in for a surprise," Colorado wide receiver Darrin Chiaverini said. "Their record does not indicate how good they are."
Defensive back Greg Erb had his first
And next Saturday, fourth-ranked Kansas State will travel to Lawrence.
"What a great opportunity," Allen said.
"You almost go back and say you're dead, you're gone, you're a boat floating in the water somewhere. You get this big win against a top-20 team, and you come and you've got K-State coming to town. Stranger things have happened on Halloween."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Open class withdrawal will end on Thursday
Liberal arts majors will need to petition in order to drop
(USPS 650-640)
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
For students trying to decide whether to withdraw from a course, Houston said a W on a transcript was better than an F.
Thursday is the last day students will be able to withdraw from College of Liberal Arts and Sciences courses without petitioning a special committee.
Friday is the beginning of the last third of the semester. Pam Houston, director of program coordination for the CLAS undergraduate program, said students have had ample time to withdraw from courses by now.
Houston said students who wished to drop a course after Thursday had to petition the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising. A group of students and faculty then would determine whether a student could withdraw from the course.
"Not doing well in a class isn't sufficient evidence to get a petition approved." Houston said.
She said when unexpected problems arose, the committee generally allowed students to withdraw. Those circumstances could include a serious illness late in the semester or a family emergency, she said.

Death of abortion provider resonates
Murder unites groups to speak against violence
By Jason Pearce Kansan staff writer
In reaction to last week's killing of a New York abortion doctor, local anti-abortion and abortion rights advocates took similar views — that violence as retribution is wrong
Andrea VanDyke, president of Students For Life-KU, said most anti-abortion advocates did not condone the killing.
"I don't think anyone understands why this person killed the doctor," VanDyke said. "But those types of actions are not the way to get your views across."
Barnett Slepian, a northern New York physician, died Friday after he was shot in his home by a sniper. This was the fifth attack on an abortion doctor in the area during the last four years, but the first one to result in a death
Liz Meittl, San Francisco senior, said she was concerned with the extreme views of some anti-abortion advocates.
"I don't understand how someone who is supposedly pro-life could justify killing someone." Meitl said.
Paul Farran, Wichita freshman, said it was unfair for people to view all anti-abortion people as the "bad guys."
He said students witnessed the opposite effect when a KU student drove his car into an anti-abortion display on Daisy Hill.
"A lot of people were offended by the display, but it made students realize what happens with abortions," he said. "It is wrong to kill an abortion doctor or commit other acts of violence."
Farran said the key to ending the violence would be to educate people fully on the issue and to allow for safe and open dialogues between the conflicting sides.
VanDyke agreed that further education would lead to a more peaceful debate.
"Education and healthy debate are the ways to go,not extremism and violence," she said.
Meitl said the abortion debate would eventually simmer down.
"Someday people will just agree to disagree, but that could be a long time coming if people keep killing," she said.
B. Reep Khuung, "she said.
Shelly Rogers, manager coordinator of Planned Parenthood of Kansas and Mid-Missouri, said it was unfortunate that abortion clinics needed to protect the rights of women.
"Dr. Slepian was definitely one of the brave warriors that went above the sinister activities of so-called pro-life fanatics," Rogers said.
She said the government should work to strengthen laws on hate crimes.
More information The FBI is searching for more information about the shooting that killed Slepian Friday. See page 6B

Finding a place to park on campus this season might be easier for fans of Kansas men's basketball. Students who attend night classes might not have as much luck.
Plenty of parking is available for fans on game night, they only have to decide on location and parking costs. But students in lots reserved for those with yellow permits could face parking tickets if their vehicles aren't moved by 5:30 p.m.
Lot 91, south of Memorial Stadium, will be open for basketball parking, said Donna Hultine, assistant parking director.
Three hundred spaces in lot 90, south of Robinson Center, and 176 spaces in lot 34, near the Computer Center, will be used for toll parking at $6 per car. The 750 spaces left in lot 90, 395 spaces in lot 72, east of the Burge Union, and 760 spaces in the parking facility are reserved for Williams Fund ticket holders.
Lots 72, 90 and 91 are reserved to students with yellow parking permits. Students in these lots must move their vehicles by 5:30 p.m. on weekday game nights to avoid a parking ticket.
Most red and blue permit lots are not restricted after 5 or 7:30 p.m., making these spots prime for basketball fans and students with night classes.
Some students who have night classes, such as Maureen Ray, park in permit lots close to campus buildings.
Ray, Overland Park senior, said she had not thought that men's basketball fans might be taking her spot on upcoming game nights.
The number of men's basketball games and neighborhood complaints did not warrant an exception here, Wildgen said.
Hultine said that just about any lot along Jayhawk Boulevard was available for basketball fans or students with night classes.
The Memorial Stadium lot was opened for basketball parking to reduce parking problems south of the Allen Field House, Hutline said.
Lawrence residents south and east of the field house complained last year about parking problems on game nights. At the time, the Lawrence City Commission was debating whether to allow homeowners to sell parking on their front lawns.
City Hall sent out a flier two weeks ago reminding residents south and east of the field house that yard parking was illegal.
Mike Wildgen, Lawrence city manager, said a city ordinance prohibiting yard parking had been in effect since the mid-1990s. Residents near Memorial Stadium were exempt from this ordinance on KU football game days.
PCs slice into Apple's popularity
More PCs than Macintoshes are used in University's labs
By Liz Wristen Kansan staff writer
Wes Hubert, associate director of Academic Computing Services, said he thought Macintosh-computer usage was declining. He said that last year the University chose to purchase more PCs for the Budig Computer Lab. The lab offers 98 PCs and 20 Macintosh systems for student use.
When it comes to computer preferences on campus, a line divides those who prefer Macintosh computers from those who stick by their PCs.
"My general impression is that there are two PC users per Macintosh system," Hubert said. "Macs are still used but the ratio seems to be that there is heavier PC use."
Jan Grzymala-Busse, student programmer/consultant for the Academic Computing Center, said he thought more students were using PCs because those computers were more user-friendly.
"I think people have veered away from Macintoshes because they have lost their advantage, which involved the use of graphic icons on the screen," Grzymalz-Busse said. "Before, people didn't like PCs, because you had to use keyboard commands, and with the Macs all you had to do was click on a graphic icon.
"Today PCs are easier to use, because you can do anything you want using your mouse because of the Windows 95 software."
Kara Donohoe, Harrisonville, Mo., junior, said the reason she liked Macintosh computers was because they were more user-friendly
Students choose the type of computer they use mostly based on personal preference, said Chris Ulmer, supervisor for the Union Technology Center.
Keeli Scheer, Norfolk, Neb., junior said she enjoyed the benefits of using a PC computer.
"I like my PC, because it's not very complicated, and it's easy for me to use." Sheeran said.
Lydia Ash, Budig lab supervisor, compiled the number of students who had used the lab computers since January 1 to determine the amount of use the two systems were receiving.
The compilation showed that PC use throughout the day was about 30 percent, and Macintosh use averaged about eight percent.
Makes them overweight about eight per cent.
Ash said the outcomes seemed a bit misleading, because the labs would sometimes be completely full between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., but at other times of the day may be close to empty.
Nowadays, Ash said she did not think many differences existed between the two systems.
"I think that some people have a personal bias toward the type of computer they want to use, but I honestly don't see many differences," Ash said. "I think that if you just picked a generic person off the street, 60 to 70 percent of people wouldn't know what they were using anyway."
Many locations on campus are still using Macintosh systems. The labs at the Academic Computing Center have about the same number of Macintosh computers as PCs, Hubert said.
The schools of Fine Arts, Journalism and Education and Robinson Center use primarily Macintosh systems.

Spring options packages available after enrolling
Students are being encouraged to walk to their right after they leave the enrollment center with their course schedules.
Aaron Quisenberry, assistant director of student finances for the Organizations and Leadership Development Center, said students could sign up for options packages for the spring semester at the center's table outside the enrollment center in Strong Hall.
"Most students walk out of the enrollment center with their heads down looking at their schedules," Quisenberry said. "The table is just to the right of the center, and we have footprints and signs."
The spring semester options are a shorter version of the fall options.
Options still available are Legislative awareness, $5; Board of Class Officers, $10 for freshmen and seniors and $8 for sophomores and juniors; SUA movie card, $25; Jayhawker yearbook, $30; and second semester bus pass, $60.
Quisenberry said the annual bus pass, sports package and all-arts package would not be available for purchase spring semester.
Options packages will be available through Nov. 18. After enrollment, each package will be available from individual vendors.

Police arrest man twice in one week for drugs
A 24-year-old Lawrence man was arrested yesterday morning after police caught him with substances they believed to be the hallucinogenic drugs psilocybine mushrooms and LSD.
It was the second time in a week that the man has been arrested in that location for drug possession.
At about 1:30 a.m. yesterday, police arrested the man at the corner of Seventh and Massachusetts streets.
He was arrested last Monday with what police believed to be 6.2 ounces of individually-packaged psilocybine mushrooms and three grams of marijuana.
The man was searched and police found 70 small pieces of paper they believed to contain LSD, and a bag of mushrooms, said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
When police discovered the substances, the man, who was out of jail on bond, attempted to run away but fell down.
Police then placed the man in the Douglas County Jail on charges of possession of LSD with intent to sell, possession of nilocybine mushroom and having no tax stamp.
His first court appearance is 3 p.m. today, jail officials said.
Check forgery suspects caught near downtown
Three Kansas City men were arrested Saturday in connection with check forgeries at four Lawrence businesses.
Lawrence police said the men were suspected of passing altered checks to Ballard's Sporting Good Outlet, 1023 N. Third St., Bass Shoe Factory, 1 Riverfront Plaza, Campbell's clothing, 841 Massachusetts St., and Weaver's Department Store Incl., 901 Massachusetts St.
Police said the names, addresses, phone numbers and account numbers on the checks had been changed and the drivers' license numbers had 10 digits, instead of nine.
When the Bass Shoe Factory received one of the checks, an employee recognized it as a forgery and called the police. The men were arrested at 5:50 p.m. in the 600 block of Tennessee Street.
Man arrested for illegal sex acts with step sons
A 37-year-old Lawrence man was arrested Friday on sex-related charges and has been accused of having improper relations with his two teen-age step sons, Lawrence police said.
The man is suspected of forcing the boys to preform sexual acts with him during a span of approximately two years.
The man was arrested after the boys told their mother about the relations.
The boys' mother reported it, and the man was arrested on four counts of criminal sodomy, two counts of indecent liberties with a child, two counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and two counts of indecent soliciting of a child.

British visit University for debate series today
The inaugural event of the 1998-1999 KU Audience Debate Series matches KU representatives against a team from Britain at 6 p.m. today at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
The KU Audience Debate Series is a series of public debates on public policy issues.
Competitors involved in the forum will participate in a parliamentary debate on the resolution: "This house believes that the melting pot has failed."
The representatives from the University will be Josh Zive, former KU student and assistant coach and 1994 semifinalist at the National Debate Tournament, and Kevin Minch, a current KU assistant debate coach and Ph.D. candidate and a former National Champion in Lincoln-Douglas Debate.
The University team will argue against the statement, and the United Kingdom will take the affirmative stance.
Convict in K-State killing linked to toddler's death
COUNCIL GROVE — A Council Grove man convicted of stabbing a Kansas State University student to death in 1993 has been charged in the death of a 15-month-old boy, authorities said.
STATE
Scotty R. Adam is being held in the Morris County Jail on $250,000 bond. He is charged with murder and child abuse stemming from the death of 15-month-old Timothy Post, Kansas Bureau of Investigation Special Agent Scott Teeselink said yesterday.
Staff at Morris County Hospital in Council Grove notified police Wednesday of possible child abuse involving the boy, the Morris County attorney's office said. Timothy was airlifted to a Wichita hospital, where he died Thursday evening.
-Kansan staff report
KBI agents arrested Adam on Friday, Teeselink said. Authorities would not discuss his relationship to the boy.
A preliminary hearing for Adam is scheduled for Nov. 4.
In 1993, Adam was convicted of murder in the stabbing death of Scott O. Sanders, a 19-year-old Kansas State freshman from Junction City. But two years later, Adam's conviction was overturned on technicalities. A jury in a second trial found him guilty of lesser charges.
He was sentenced to three to 10 years in prison.
Kansas Department of Corrections spokesman Bill Miskell said Adam was paroled on April 11, 1996, and finished his parole on April 11 this year.

MIT manslaughter case ends,fraternity closes
BOSTON — The manslaughter case against an MIT fraternity in the drinking death of a freshman effectively ended yesterday because the fraternity has disbanded and there is no one to answer the charges.
Last month, prosecutors took the extraordinary step of bringing manslaughter charges against Phi Gamma Delta — the organization, not its members — in the case of 18-year-old Scott Krueger, who drank himself into a coma at a party and died.
Yesterday, the Superior Court magistrate who had issued a warrant against Phi Gamma Delta filed it away in case the fraternity tries to reorganize at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
Because no individual members were named in the indictment, the case unravelled when the fraternity disbanded.

Many 'W's bad for future, staff says
"A W or two on a transcript over four or five years shouldn't be a major concern to students." Houston said.
Continued from page 1A
Students could encounter problems when applying to graduate programs or jobs if their transcripts reveal a pattern of withdrawing from courses. Houston said.
one or two class withdrawals would not matter much.
Diane Lindeman, director of admissions at the KU School of Law, agreed that
But she said it would look suspicious if a student withdrew from several courses.
Ann Hartley, associate director of the University Career and Employment Services, said she did not think an occasional W had a large impact on career opportunities.
"You have to learn how to be prepared to explain it, if it comes out in an interview," Hartley said.
But she said most people could turn the withdrawal into a positive learning experience.
Kevin Burch, Chanute senior, said, "I don't think that it would affect my chances of getting a job."
But he said he still would not want to withdraw from a course, because most of the classes he was enrolled in were graduation requirements that he would have to retake.
ON THE RECORD
The dash and passenger-side window of a KU student's car was damaged, and a CD player and two speakers were stolen between 5:45 and 10:55 p.m. Saturday in the 1100 block of Tennessee Street, Lawrence police said. The damage to the car was $550, and the property was valued at $225.

Eight-week academy required before joining KU Public Safety Office
By Kelll Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Four new officers completed their first duties Saturday with the KU Public Safety Office at the Kansas-Colorado football game.
The new officers have been training to work for the office since July 27.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said the new officers assisted with crowd control after the game.
"They were all about it," he said.
The new officers stood in the end zones to discourage the crowd from taking the goalposts.
"That wasn't successful, so we pulled back and monitored the
situation," Mailen said
"It was great — what an experience." she said.
Dusty Wilson, one of the new officers, said she enjoyed working at the game.
New officers Sylvester Birdsong, Josh Leon and Joey Jaramillo are rookies. They completed eight weeks at the police academy in Yoder on Oct.
2 and returned to Lawrence for inhouse training with Wilson.
"Iwant to help people. It sounds corny,but it's true.I didn't do it so I could shoot guns and drive fast."
Wilson served with the Baldwin Police Department for three years before coming to the University.
The officers finish all training this week and begin regular work Sunday.
Joey Jaramillo
"They're very enthusiastic," Mailen
said. "They were really anxious to get their uniforms."

The officers said they were ready to work after weeks of training.
Birdsong said he learned a lot at the academy but that it was not a
good time.
"It was class," he said. "You had to be there. It was stress."
Birdsong joked that his favorite parts of the training were graduation and lunch.
Jaramillo disagreed.
Birdsong said he enjoyed the academy's driving course more than the

"That was the fun part until the test came," Birdsong said.
rest of the training.
Jaramillo agreed.
"After I was finished, I wanted to go back and do it again." he said.
Jaramillo also said he hoped to enjoy the work he had been preparing for at the academy.
"I want to help people," he said. "It sounds corny, but it's true. I didn't do it so I could shoot guns and drive fast."
Leon said being a police officer was the only thing he could really see himself doing.
"My grandpa was a cop, and my dad was a cop," he said. "It was bred into me."
Mailen said the officers were hired to replace people who had retired or left the department during the last four years.
He said Wilson, Leon, Birdsong and Jaramillo would serve the department well.
"We've got a great bunch of officers in these four," he said. "They're ready to hit the streets next week."
Milk Mustache seeks KU smiles
By Julie M. Sachs
The Milk Mustache campaign stops at the University of Kansas today from noon to 2 p.m. in the lobby of the Kansas Union and will be offering students health tips and a chance to appear in a milk mustache advertisement.
Kansan staff writer
One KU student's mustache picture will appear in the Lawrence Journal-World, The University Daily Kansan and on the Milk Web site.
A national winner also will be selected from the 50- college campus tour to appear in an ad in a future issue of Sports Illustrated.
Besides getting their own milk mustache photo, students also can get free milk merchandise including a calendar and posters of new milk mustache celebrities.
Students also can get their picture taken with life-size cutouts of supermodel Tyra Banks and football star John Elway.
Motivation behind the tour is to educate students on the benefits of drinking milk, said Matt Wagner, account coordinator for Bozzell Sawyer Miller Group Marketing Communications.
"A dietitian will be there giving education about food and health," said Tracie Schuler, SUA graduate advisor. The campaign also is drawing upon studies that show only college athletes are consuming the amount of calcium they need.
recent studies have shown that milk is the No. 1 beverage college students stop drinking when they head to college. The "Rethink Your Drink" survey showed that college students rated soda as the top beverage they could not live without at school, Wagner said.
He said the strong support of athletes at the University also influenced why the campaign would be stopping on campus.
roy Williams, Jarrod Haase and Marian Washington may be making an appearance at the event.
The event, which is sponsored by SUA, is free of cost for the University.
Kansas and Nebraska are the only two Big 12 schools where the campaign will stop.
DOES A BODY GOOD
- Fat free milk has 80 calories; 1 percent low fat milk has 2.5 grams of fat and 100 calories per 8-oz serving.
■ The National Academy of Sciences recommends that college-age men and women should consume 1,000 mg of calcium each day - drinking at least three 8-az glasses of milk to help meet this daily calcium requirement.
Calcium is a vital nutrient needed to help prevent the bone-thinning disease osteoporosis, which afflicts 25 million Americans.

New technology to ease research pains
Administrators for the University of Kansas Libraries deserve thanks from students for spending $1 million to make library research easier and less time-consuming.
The current online catalog at all KU Libraries is 15 years old, and students using it cannot search using basic keywords (much like an Internet search engine for example). Aside from this antiquated interface problem, the current catalogs customized features prevent it from being able to interact with other library systems, said Rob Melton, library publications coordinator. Students resources, then, are somewhat limited.
The new online catalog, Voyager, is scheduled to arrive at 12 University libraries on the Lawrence,
The University libraries spent $1 million to update online catalogs.
Wichita and Kansas City campuses
Wichita and Kansas City campuses. Voyager will be significantly more flexible with a more user-friendly search system, availability of data from other libraries in the nation, keyword searches, narrower searches by language, date and even type of publication. Users can decide how they want their search results displayed. They can even select the records they want and e-mail them.
Voyager will be part of a wider system for university libraries. KU Integrated Library Systems will include, in addition to the online catalog,
databases for circulation, ordering materials, serial number records and even accounting records. All of the information should be available from remote locations.
Malton said that anybody who was computer literate would appreciate the new system.
Any step in improving the outdated, limited library system already in place is a welcome one. As a prominent research institution, providing easier, quicker and wider access to information is vital to maintaining the caliber of University research.
Anybody who uses the libraries just about all students, faculty and researchers should be grateful that library officials are working to make their lives a little easier.

Hate crime laws do not violate free speech
Andrew Marino said that laws against hate crimes violate free speech in his column Oct. 20. Would he say the same for extortion or terroristic threats? What about soliciting a hit man, colluding to restrain trade, or publishing a false advertisement?
In physical terms, these are speech acts and no more. Yet most civil libertarians agree these acts can be regulated because they not only inflict harm, but also go beyond mere speech.
Pure speech acts are constitutionally protected if they are mere selfexpression rather than action in the world. Protected speech can affect the world, but the intended
channel is persuading others to act. Threats do not persuade; rather, they impel compliance through fear. Solicitations do not merely persuade; in addition, they attempt to enter into a contract.
Regulating hate crimes is constitutionally permissible for two independent reasons.
1. The underlying crime is not a speech act at all; rather, it is a violent act such as assault, rape, or murder. The degree of punishment for a violent crime always hinges on the perpetrators' states of mind, such as motive, pre-meditation, self-defense, or sanity. It is quite reasonable to make bigoted violence an aggravating circumstance.
2. Both the specific intent and the effect of a hate crime is to terrorize a larger class of persons, not
merely the immediate victim, and to prevent them from fully enjoying their ordinary civil liberties. Hate crimes deserve heightened penalties precisely because they have even more serious consequences than ordinary violent crimes.
Those who oppose hate crime laws must logically oppose war crimes trials and international accords against genocide. Most civil libertarians, however, would welcome narrowly drafted laws that enhance protection of civil liberties for members of unpopular groups.

Typical issues debated in upcoming election
Perspective
As I wrote in my last column, this November's elections are about as interesting as a Sugar Ray CD in a recycled bin. Typical issues have shown up;
takes, education, crime,
blah, blah. I'd like to
think that this election is
important, and I wish the
candidates offered more
excitement, but pardon
me, (yawn).

Anyway, here's the rundown on the democratic challengers to the incumbent House Republicans.
1st District: Jim Phillips. Umm, I haven't too much to say about this guy, besides that he's a Democrat from Moscow, Kan., where ever that is.
Basically, Phillips is a write-in candidate for the we're-gonna-lose anyway-democrats of the 1st district. They have pretty much conceded the race to Jerry Moran because Phillips has as much chance of winning as Candlebox taking home a Grammy. Maybe someone who is related to Mr. Phillips could give me a little insight into his politics, cause I ain't got nuthin'.
2nd District; Jim Clark. Clark is a sound alternative to the undeserving incumbent Jim Ryun. Clark is a fairly typical democrat. He opposes school vouchers, which could exacerbate inequality in education.
He favors job training and moderately progressive taxes, rather than slashing government spending and taxes that would do more for the portfolios of the richest Americans than the prospects of lower classes.
legally represented criminals. Maybe Vince is forgetting about a little clause in the Constitution called due process, whereby even "shady" characters get legal representation.
While Ryun favors its abolition, Clark would rather restructure the tax code to make it simpler. (He is skimpy on the details though.) Clark also favors some type of universal health insurance coverage. On campaign finance reform, Clark has stated that he would favor any effort that "restores fairness" to the political process. Once again, we don't exactly know what that means, but it's better than the Ryun option (universal disclosure of funding), which does nothing to reduce the influence of money on the political process.
The rest of the setup is familiar: a rich, white, suburban conservative Republican versus a rich, white, suburban, conservative Democrat.
Moore is against privatization of Social Security, a school voucher system, repeal of the Brady Bill, and a concealed weapon law. Beyond these negations, it's hard to pinpoint any policy stances. You could infer that Moore wants education to be sufficiently funded and locally controlled, crime to go down and people to have adequate health coverage, but so does his opponent. Both Moore and Snowbarger lack a semblance of strategy, outside of innovative ways to call someone a liar.
3rd District: Dennis Moore. If you vote in Lawrence, this is the race that is going to be on your ballot. Dennis Moore is a well-known former district attorney in Johnson County who has a real chance to beat Vince Snowbarger in the 3rd. This contest has been uglier than Nell Carter in a halter top. Moore has been characterized by his opponent as a felon-loving pinko who (gasp)
When you don't take a position, it's easy to misrepresent your opponent, and these two have exercised little restraint in name-calling. Don't get me wrong, I love a good personal attack, especially ones of the 30-second soundbite variety. This race would be more exciting if the candidates backed up their personal bouts with ideological ones. Dennis Moore is slightly less conservative and slightly thinner around the waist too.
4th District: Jim Lawing. A lawyer from Wichita, Lawing might be the most credible Democrat running. He offers a clear choice between himself and Republican Todd Tiahart. He has stated that he favors U.S. fulfillment of its debt to the United Nations. Lawing is against governmental subsidies for big business and for job training and creation for "struggling" sectors of our society. As a former head of the Kansas Civil Liberties Union, his position is the most substantive of any running for a Kansas House seat.
Lawing has an agenda that is in step with traditional democratic values. He believes in economic fairness for the disadvantaged and seeks to promote the general welfare of Americans through government programs, while his opponent believes a more market driven economy can fairly decide prosperity.
The election is November 3rd. Please vote. I know it might not seem to make much difference, and especially in this cycle that's probably true, but voting is the only clear political power many of us have, so use it.
Vote for yourself if you feel like it, but make sure you get out there on Election Day.

Democrat Moore courts Republican vote in race
Andrew Marino
opinion@kansan.com
mention of the party of Roosevelt, Truman and that feisty little donkey is many times absent from his literature and lips. Instead, Moore incessantly insists that he will be beholden to no party's agenda. It's a good thing, too. Advertising Democratic affiliation in this heavily Republican district would result in a Nov. 3 defeat.
Dennis Moore doesn't want the voters of Kansas' 3rd Congressional District to know something. Kept under close guard is the fact that Moore is — shh! Don't
By donning political camouflage, Moore's campaign has gained the support of the Republican country club set in Johnson County. More than 400 supporters, calling themselves Republicans for Moore, have signed up to support the Democrat's bid. Could it be? A Democrat backed by Johnson County's wealthy establishment? A cursory drive through Mission Hills and a closer look at the issues indicates an answer in the affirmative. Unfortunately, Moore has entered into the arrangement at the expense of a very large traditional constituency — the working class.
In the Oct. 18 debate with incumbent Vince Snowbarger at Johnson County Community College, Moore said Congress must stop playing "Santa Claus" with tax cuts. The metaphor was odd and actually quite inconsistent with my childhood experience. You see, Santa never took anything of mine, rewrapped it, and then gave it back. Tax cuts allow people to keep more of what they already own; they are a reduction in the amount of money government seizes — not a gift generously given. Moore contends that we should not let people keep more of what they earn before Social Security is saved. (A point so vaguely defined it probably means never.)
guard is the fact that we say it—the Democratic candidate for Congress
DRAKE
The average, working-class Kansan should question why, if Moore favors separating Social Security from the rest of the budget as he stated in the debate, he won't lower taxes that don't go to Social Security anyway? Furthermore, Kansans should challenge whether Social Security, as currently configured, is a program Congress should save in the first place. It's supported by a payroll tax that applies to the first $65,000 that a worker earns, making it a heavier burden on those with lower to middle incomes (ie: working students). Social Security benefits, however, are doled out to all older than 65, including even the wealthiest, to whom the check is mere pocket change.
Moore's rich "Republican" friends, of course, are not so desperately in need of official tax reduction and simplification. They can afford lawyers (not surprisingly another big constituency) to slide their fortunes through the outrageously complicated tax code relatively unscathed. For instance, Fox mogul Rupert Murdoch paid a 7.9 percent tax rate on his $1.3 billion in profits last year, the top rate is 40 percent. (CE: Is Rupert Murdoch Moore's friend? Is this true for taxpayers in Johnson County?)
As if Moore had not had enough of coercively taking from working Kansans, he also declared, referring to labor unions, that he was proud to have the support of working people. Substituting "money" for "support" would be more accurate. Quite literally everyone I talked to while working alongside Teamsters at UPS this summer was voting for Snowbarger. Union leaders, however, have endorsed Moore and spent union dues aiding his campaign.
During the tax-Social Security debate, Moore asked Snowbarger if he disagreed with Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan's recommendation that there be no tax cuts this year to preserve Social Security. Snowbarger answered that, yes, he did disagree with the venerated Chairman, but perhaps Snowbarger did not fully explain why a wealthy banker from New York married to a network news reporter could not possibly understand just why tax cuts are so important. Snowbarger, who consistently voted against giving away gold medals for the Medal of Honor because they each cost roughly as much as the average personal income in his district, clearly does. Third District Democrats have now formed a habit of courting the Country Club vote. If they're not careful, they could end up creating another coalition — Democrats for Snowbarger.

New Internet network benefits science
KU professors make bid to take ride on new network buried near railroads
By Chris Bornigor Special to the Kansan
KU researchers, and others across the nation, are pioneering one of the newest networks in America — Internet 2 — along one of the country's oldest networks — railroads. Because rail lines reach across the entire continent, the rail rights of way will connect virtually all the major regions of the United States.
The Internet-2 is a research network similar to the Internet, using lines buried along railroads. It differs from the first Internet in its purpose; the Internet-2 is devoted solely to scientific research.
The installation of the lines is cheaper, because many of the technology companies, such as Qwest, investing in the Internet-2 have agreements with railroad compa
nies. Additionally, physical access to the lines is easier, because they will not run under buildings.
"It's the best thing since sliced bread," said Ken Bishop, professor of chemical engineering. "We're really on the frontier as far as collaborative use of high performance computers."
A group of KU professors, including Bishop, made a proposal to the National Science Foundation for access to the Internet-2. KU will connect through the Kansas Research and Educational Network, which connects to the Great Plains Network, which includes North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and Arkansas. The Great Plains Network is expected to spend $3 million on the new network, most of which will run along rail lines laid
down when the great Plains were hardly more than a frontier.
Access to the system, which became available early this month, will enable faster access to supercomputers across the nation. Joe Evans, professor of electrical engineering and computer science, said researchers should be able to download data at speeds around 45 megabits per second — about five times faster than the speed of the University's campus ethernet.
Bishop, who heads the National Computational and Science Alliance, will head the chemical engineering applications team. Their goal will be to run complex simulations on remote supercomputers at the University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign and in San Diego.
"We're going to be simulating the performance of chemical reactors to produce profitable chemicals," he said.
Bishop said the system's software will enable chemical engineering
"This is one of a number of earth systems projects that will benefit greatly from the Internet-2. We'll have the high-speed capability for access to data that are associated with the vast number of collections of animals and plants."
Leonard Krishtalka
researchers at KU, UIUC, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and South Dakota State University to collectively collaborate on projects. Additionally, the researchers will be able to communicate by voice and video.
Leonard Kristalka, professor of Ecology and director of the National History Museum, included in the NSF proposal his plans for a biodiversity project. His project will use the network for research on evolutionary patterns, climate change and biogeography.
Professor of ecology
"This is one of a number of earth systems projects that will benefit greatly from the Internet-2," Krishtalka said. "We'll have the high-speed capability for access to data that are associated with the vast number of collections of animals and plants."
Evans said students, not just researchers, would benefit as well. As connections to the Internet-2 are completed, existing Internet connections will be improved.
"KU is really a first-class citizen on the Internet,2." Evans said.
Arrest of Chilean senator in England causes debate
By Chad Bottes and Mariana Paiva
Kansas staff writers
When former Chilean dictator and current Senator Augusto Pinochet was arrested on Oct. 16 in England, the world started talking about the implications of the arrest. Members of the University of Kansas community have joined the debate.
Gary Reich, assistant professor of political science, said the arrest was highly unusual because politicians and diplomats were usually provided with special protections when they traveled outside of their countries.
In this case, Pinochet traveled to England for medical treatment. He had visited the country on numerous other occasions.
This time, a Spanish judge filed for Pinochet's extradition to Spain for murders he was accused of ordering during his successful military coup in 1973. Reich said. In the coup, Spanish citizens in Chile are known to have been killed along with thousands of Chileans. Others disappeared and were never found.
Reich said other factors also would influence the decision. Pinochet is 82 years old, in poor health and has a legacy for building up the Chilean economy.
A British judge has allowed the arrest of Pinochet, but the decision is being appealed, which has delayed the extradition. International pressure is mounting on Britain, with various groups urging both his release back to Chile and extradition to Spain.
Alvaro Berg, Santiago, Chile, freshman, admitted he is biased against Pinochet. However, he said he thought the arrest and extradition were appropriate.
"Chile is one of the most prosperous economies in Latin America." Reich said.
"I can't deny he did a lot for the country, but he also killed a lot of people, so he deserves to pay," Berg said.

"I think it's wrong that Pinochet was arrested. If justice is going to be served, all the dictators of Latin America should be arrested, too." Rebecca Magario
He said Pinochet had avoided arrest previously, because he controlled the Chilean military until last year. Because Pinochet is now a senator, Berg said the situation is still complicated.
Others think that Pinoche is simply being used to satisfy a political vendetta.
Brecca Magario, Sao Paulo, Brazil, freshman, lived in Chile for six years. She said people who went into exile during Pinochet's 17-year dictatorship have returned to Chile and want someone to pay for their suffering.
"I think it's wrong that Pinochet was arrested," Magario said. "If justice is going to be served, all the dictators of Latin America should be arrested, too."
Reich said the extradition is uncertain at this time. He said the Spanish government is fairly conservative and does not necessarily want to be involved in trying Pinochet.
Meanwhile, the Chilean government is putting tremendous pressure on Britain to return Pinochet. Chile has sent an official military plane to bring Pinochet home if he is released.
Latin American Solidarity, a University organization, is planning a forum in November to discuss the Pinochet situation.
Megan Hope, president of the group and Garden City graduate student, said she hoped to bring a political science professor, law professor, Chilean citizens and students together for the forum.
University to extinguish Haworth Hall fire hazard
By Nadia Mustafa
Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas soon will fix a fire hazard in a Haworth Hall research lab.
The construction work will remedy a situation that faculty and staff said could have ended with state-of-the-art laser equipment bursting into flames.
Earlier this month, facilities operations began remodeling an equipment room on the third floor of Haworth. The room will become a research lab housing a $500,000 argon-iron and tisaphire laser system that the biological sciences department acquired four years ago.
The lasers had been stationed in a small lab with inadequate temperature-regulation systems that caused potentially hazardous breakdowns on several occasions, said Kandi White, public service administrator of the biological sciences department.
Diana Bigelow, assistant professor of biochemistry, cell and molecular biology, said the department learned about the hazard a couple years ago.
Bigelow said that, until recently, the University was the only university to own such a laser system. Biology graduate students and faculty will use the new lab to research molecular structures.
Bigelow added that the old lab had been inadequate and there was not enough space for the growth of the laser system. She said there were various other problems such as air-quality control and high levels of humidity.
Bigelow said finding a solution to the
HAWORTH HAZARD
The problem: State-of-the-art laser equipment in Haworth Hall research lab could burst into flames.
The cause: Lack of adequate space and temperature regulation in the old lab.
The solution: Construction of a new research lab in Haworth to house the $500,000 laser equipment used by biology graduate students and faculty.
problem was a slow process because of the continuing space problem in most of the University's science departments.
Mike Richardson, director of facilities operations administration, said the $16,000 renovations should be completed by the end of October, if plans run smoothly.
"We're just trying to keep the place running without that many disruptions," Richardson said. "We also have to coordinate with faculty."
The equipment room that will be replaced by the new lab had been used for storing ice machines, centrifuges, freezers and other equipment. The equipment will be moved to a renovated space on the same floor.
Other projects underway in Haworth include the creation of administrative space for the ecology and evolutionary biology department and the installation of air ducts to increase ventilation in a room used for research and microscope storage. The remodeling projects will be completed this fall, White said.

musical persuasions with open arms.
So here comes Elliot Smith, well known for his contributions to the Good Will Hunting soundtrack. The pensive, self-reflective nature of Smith's lyrics are what made him perfect for that film's soundtrack and perfect for my CD rack.
The first track on the album, *Sweet Adeline*, is a lovely melody in the tradition of singing storytellers — Paul Simon, Cat Stevens. The soft strum of guitar chords play background to a tale of lost love.
"Waiting for sedation to disconnect my head/ Or any situation where I'm better off than dead." Smith sings. The musician combines brutal honesty with a soft voice and acoustic guitar. It's enough to make me swoon.
Take A Question Mark, where Smith observes the world through the eyes of a wandering soul.
"I got a question mark/You got a need to always take some shot in the dark/I don't have to make pretend the picture I'm in is totally clear." "This album stands out from current soft-spoken lyricists because Smith approaches his stories without pretense and needless modesty.
Don't think that this album is one quiet stream of consciousness. Bottle Up and Explode! shows Smith's vivacity — in a reserved way, of course.
But Smith releases his anger, singing, "you look at him like you've never known him/but I know for a fact that you have." And if you hard rockers still aren't convinced, there are a couple of swear words spattered through the songs.
XO is a stream of prose and stories set with a sweet, harmonious background. I hope he takes off and aside from his *Good Will Hunting* fame. This album is wonderful, lazy Saturday afternoon listen.

Sharon Stone still trying to surprise audiences
By Bob Thomas
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Sharon Stone plans to live with her new husband in San Francisco, but that doesn't mean she will neglect her position among Hollywood's most indemand stars. She has struggled too long to get there.
The actress marked two milestones this year: in March she turned 40; on Valentine's Day, she married Phil Bronstein, 47, executive editor of the San Francisco Examiner.
Stone seemed to reflect a new maturity and a refreshing candor as she spoke in an interview at a Westside hotel.
She said she really doesn't like Los Angeles. "San Francisco is a better life. People there are interested in a much broader spectrum," she said.
Most of today's stars tap dance around any hint of controversy, Not Stone. She is reminiscent of Bette Davis and Joan Cawford in her willingness to speak out. And like those two immortals, she has earned her climb up the ladder.
Born in Meadville, Pa., she recalls wanting to be an actress from the age of 4. Her thrill of the week was watching classic movies on television on Saturday mornings, including the films of Davis and Crawford.
"My father was always barking at me, 'Go outside and play,' but I wanted to stay inside and watch movies," she said. "I'm still like that. My husband says, 'You haven't left the house in three days; you should go out.'"
After winning a hometown beauty contest, Stone made TV

bimbo decade in such films as "Police Academy 4" and "Action Jackson."
She blames that period on poor agents and her naivete.
"I was a kid from the country," she said. "I was getting jobs, I didn't know what to do. I felt I should be grateful for the jobs I was getting, that I could buy a home and pay my bills.
"I was doing exciting things in acting class, and, eventually I just got ashamed. I was doing all this good work in class, and I was doing all this crap on the screen."
She decided to stop being a good girl and to abandon the manners she grew up with. At 32 she realized she had to make up for the lost time.
Matters improved when she kick boxed Arnold Schwarzenegger in "Total Recall." Then came the explosive "Basic Instinct" with that risque shot in police interrogation.
Although the film placed her in the top ranks, she remains angry with the director, Paul Verhoeven.
"I hated him for showing the world up my skirt," Stone said.
"I hated him for making me believe that I could go out on a limb. I didn't have a net, he wasn't watching my back. You expect to be able to freewheel as much as you want, because you expect the director to protect you."
"I really thought that was our agreement. As a mature artist, I agree that shot was the best choice for the movie. I really disagree with the way he got it. Because, it made me look incredibly stupid when I was very, very willing to do what it took to be that character.
"It would have been better if he had brought me into the editing room and shown me the scene and explained why he did it. But he showed it to me in a roomful of strangers. That was him trying to create a cruel, inappropriate power over me. That hurt me a lot."
"I never thought 'Silver' was a good picture, I never really wanted to do it," she said. "But my agent at the time was the agent of Joe Eszterhas (who wrote the script). I didn't really understand that game."
The scene had people talking across the country and throughout the world. Her stardom established, Stone followed with "Sliver," which created no talk at all.
She agreed to "Silver" with the provision that her agent push for "Intersection" with Richard Gere. That happened, and she followed with an action film with Sylvester Stallone "The Specialist," and a
Western, "The Quick and the Dead," produced by her own company.
She was cast in "Casino," opposite Robert De Niro. The Martin Scorsese film brought her an Academy Award nomination, a Golden Globe and a bundle of respect.
Always aiming for surprise, the actress has abandoned her wicked ways to play the loving mother of a disabled boy in "The Mighty It." A secondary role to a pair of 13-years (Kieran Culkin, Elden Henson) who form an old friendship to defy their young tormentors.
"I always try to do something that I haven't done before," she said. "I think it's appropriate to play moms and to play people who have life experiences. I'm not an ingenean anymore. I think it's time for me to invest some of my own life into my work.
"It's interesting to play psychopaths and villains because they're without boundaries. That's kind of sensationalistically entertaining. But I reached a point where it's not as rewarding to me, it's not as much fun."
Her husband considers her "Mighty" role the closest to who she really is, and she's inclined to agree. But there is a difference. She is childless.
"So far," she said. "But I just found my dude. Give me a minute." That's something the tabloids have declined to do. She claims her pregnancy has been announced "400 times." But not by her.

"I'm just a normal girl," she elaborated:
"I have a very unnormal occupation. But I am a normal woman. I'm not my job."

Crazy abnormal attitude helps Vaughn portray serial killers, psychos
By Cynthia L. Webb The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Vince Vaughn doesn't care if people think he's crazy for portraying serial killers. He has always been able to do things differently yet still come out ahead.
The 6-foot-5-inch Vaughn broke onto the scene a few years ago as the video-game loving, bar-hopping actor of "Swingers," who was on the prowl for "beautiful babies" and made the saying, "You're so money," seen hip.
Vaughn, 28, plays a killer in "Clay Pigeons" and will star as the equally demented Norman Bates in Gus Van Sant's remake of the Alfred Hitchcock classic, "Psycho."
Based on his dead-on performances, will people think he's a womanizing, smooth-talking, borderline psychotic, too?
"It would be nothing new for me," laughes Vaughn, rubbing his stubby baby face. Still, he warns, "Perception can be a bad thing."
He says the real Vince is often "painfully shy" and only turns up his humor if he likes someone. If people are mean, he can be downright "boisterous."
Over a lunch of chicken tacos near his Los Feliz home, Vaughn speaks quickly, almost in a stream of consciousness. If his hands aren't gesturing while he speaks, he taps them on the table. Every so often, his denim-clad leg jitters below the booth. Vaughn is always on the move, even while he sits — perhaps a remnant of a childhood hyperactive streak.
Vaughn offers a scary portrayal of a madman in "Clay Pigeons"—a twisted, at times comic tale of a gas station attendant who is befriended by a mysterious cowboy drifter named Lester Long (played by Vaughn).
Vaughn said he didn't know the film would be released only months before "Psycho," but shows no worry about being pegged as the guy who can only portray wackos.
Van Sant said Vaughn's physical appearance helped him get the "Psycho" role.
"Vince came in for a meeting when we started to cast the film and he scared my assistant because of the way he looked," the director said.
"He had close-cropped hair and a short beard ... but there was something quite deep in his gaze which helped me make the decision to
cast him. Not looking like Anthony Perkins healed, too."
The Midwestern-bred actor — born in Minnesota, raised in Illinois — said he has never tried to win praise by following the norm.
"I was weird. I'm a kid that they took to a psychiatrist at 5. They thought I was crazy, because I was never a follower," Vaughn says. "I was a kid who would take tap class and then I would go play football. ... I was always lucky that I could do my own thing."
School was not his forte. He remembers talking back to teachers and going to detention, even if it was to stick up for other kids he felt were being wronged.
"I had a lot of confidence. I think I got it from my parents that you can't just let people pick on you," Vaughn says.
"I had teachers yelling at me all the time. But I had one teacher who never yelled or anything. He pulled me outside and said, 'I just wanted to tell you, you let me down.' I cried my eyes out, even at 13 years old, because I wasn't as comfortable with that, I guess. My journey has been getting more comfortable with that sort of thing."
At the suggestion of the school, he went to counseling and then was put in a special class for a while.
Vaughn's parents decided acting would be a good outlet for his energy. At age 7, he was in school plays and community theater. After high school, he did some work in Chicago—even temporarily joining an improv group.
Vaughn skipped college and headed to Los Angeles at 18, leaving behind a life that had always been full of contrasts. He was raised both Protestant and Catholic; born poor but later transplanted to a rich Chicago suburb; obtrusive at school, yet still popular.
He describes his dad, Vernon, as being a hardworking man from a redneck outdoor plumbing farm in Ohio.
"My dad put himself through college, served in the Navy, and became a self-made man and made a lot of bread," he says. "He worked in an insane asylum at night so he could do his homework and put the kids to bed. He was so determined to change his life existence."
When Vaughn was in elementary school, the family — parents and two older sisters — moved to affluent Lake Forest. His parents have since divorced.

"We don't know how many more games he has in him." — Terry Allen
Braatten braves injuries to help 'Hawks win
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
While being recruited during his senior year at Pomona High School in, Arvada, Colo., Kansas inside linebacker Steve Bratten was snubbed by the Colorado football program.
And he and fellow Coloradan Jeremy Hanak forced the fumble that gave Kansas its fourth touchdown of the game and blew the score wide open, 26-14.
They said he wasn't good enough.
Well, Bratten snubbed them right back Saturday night as the senior led his Jayhawks to a 33-17 dismalment of the Buffaloes.
"That was really cool, for two guys from Colorado, who Colorado snubbed basically and told us we weren't good enough for their program, to come back and make a big play on them and turn the game around." Bratten said.
And it was fitting that Bratten played such a huge role in the game, because it might have been the last game he plays.
Through much of his career at Kansas, Bratten has played on injured knees.
During the Baylor game he sprained the MCL, a ligament, in his left knee and sat out the Nebraska game as a result.
But there was nothing keeping him from playing against Colorado, despite his lack of practice time.
"I've really been struggling," Bratten said. "I haven't practiced in a good month. I come out and practice on Thursdays, and for me to keep on that pace, I don't know."
But he did it for the game that counted the most to him.
It's not the first time he has beaten Colorado, though.
During Bratten's redshirt freshman year, Kansas beat Colorado, 40-24, in Boulder.
But this one was a little sweeter.
"This win was equally as big for us, because we haven't won very many games, and they're a nationally ranked team, and we came out, and we dominated," he said.
Dominated, they did, and Bratten led them every step of the way.
Before the game, the seniors agreed to name Bratten an honorary captain for the night.

after the game when he reflected on his teammates' decision to name him honorary captain.
"I really appreciate the program did that for me," he said.
"It means a lot to me."
And maybe Saturday's win was just the thing Bratten needed to help him finish out the season.
"We don't know how many more games he has in him," Allen said. "Maybe this one will get him over the hump and he can play a couple more."
Commentary
Thrill of Colorado game needed to spoil K-State
Now that's what I call fun!
And on that night the student body brought them down and hauled them off on a victory march. I was so excited I found myself sprinting to the south end zone with the rest of the crazed students, together as one, fighting toward a common goal — the posts must come down.
Last Saturday, those goal posts represented a season's worth of frustration.
For one weekend at least, we were a football school.
To the football team, thank you for the exciting victory, but the season isn't over yet.
It has to do with my first experience of the Sunflower Showdown and how I'm unable to forget the horrible events which transpired that evening. Coach Allen read carefully—the story will be very educational with respect to how much Jayhawks hate Wildcats.
Which brings me to a story I'd like to share with you about the 'Hawks next opponent.
The opponent: The hated K-State Wildcats. The game started out close, but in the second half the game got out of hand.
It was a nationally televised Thursday night game on ESPN.

It was Thursday October 6, 1994.
The Wildcats embarrassed the Jayhawks on national television.
I was a freshman, a member of the marching band, and a cymbal player at that. Not
True, but I haven't reached the worst part of the story.
Midway through the fourth quarter things began to get usher.
Jayhawk fans had words with Wildeat fans. Did I mention some marketing genius decided to hand out Powerbars before the game?
Some may say, "So what. Blowouts happen all the time."
Who is going to eat a Powerbar at a football game? Besides they taste like poo.
Soon the Powerbars were being used as projectiles. The main target: The University of Kansas Marching Band and the fans.
The game ended, and the humiliation
continued.

like a soaring Jayhawk running full speed and connecting with their necks, sending their cowboy hats to the turf.
Fortunately for the Wildcat fans, I was in uniform, and I held my self under control.

Powerbars at the fans, as well as the band. For the first time all year, my fellow band member. Tom and I were actually happy to
be playing cymbals that night. We used the big metal circles as shields.
In the middle of a song we saw a brown stick, resembling Mr. Hanky flying our way. Up went the shields as if we were a couple of Captain Americas sending the concrete textured energy bars to the ground.
The crowd was angry that night my friends.
I hated that night, and I still can't help thinking about it.
Ever since the thousands of other seniors and I arrived at KU, we haven't beaten K-State.
This would be the best time to do it. We could ruin their chances of a national championship and keep our bowl prayers alive. The last thing I want to do is relive that horrible night. But how about reliving last Saturday? Now that's what I would call a fun weekend.

Basketball poll salutes women in preseason
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The poll was released yesterday and placed Kansas ahead of Texas Tech and Baylor in the team rankings. Kansas guard Lynn Pride was picked as Player of the Year.
"There have been high expectations put on us, and we put a lot on our

selves," said Pride, who averaged 14.9 points and 6.7 rebounds per game last season. "We think we're capable."
The announcement came as little surprise. The Jayhawks have been projected as high as No. 7 in the nation, and Pride received a nomination as a
MICHAEL O'BRIEN
Pride: Voted pre season player of the year.
National Player of the Year candidate.
Preseason accolades mean little, Washington said.
"She's one of the best players in this country, not just the conference." Washington said. "We're really pushing her this year."
"Ijust don't want to get caught up in the rankings," said Kansas coach Marian Washington. "Last year, we weren't picked, and that's a lot easier than being on top where everybody takes their best shot at you."
"We got the nod for whatever reason, but now we have to try to help the team keep their focus," she said.
Pride was joined on the preseason All-Big 12 team by Iowa State's Stacy Frese, Texas Tech's Angie Braziel, Baylor's Lara Webb and Oklahoma's Phylesha Whaley.
Pride's honor came as no surprise to Washington
Throughout the preseason, the Jayhawks have expressed indifference to praise. Pride echoed the company line yesterday when asked if the honor meant anything.
"Not to me," she said. "It's just a preseason prediction. I'm not focused in on individual things right now."
Pride said she was a little nervous about the selection.
"I guess it's good in some ways, but it puts some pressure on you." Pride said. "If you don't do what you're supposed to do, you feel like you let some people down."
Having the preseason Player of the Year doesn't make Kansas a onewoman team. In fact, depth may be one of the team's strengths with almost the entire team returning this season.
"They understand a lot better what it's going to take this year," Washington said.
Much of the team's improved depth lies in the hands of four freshman — 6-6 Kristin Geoffroy, 6-2 Katie Hannon, 5-6 Selena Scott and 5-9 Dameyla Stepney.
"We have a lot of young players who we need quality minutes from," Washington said. "All four (freshman) are (coming along well), but they can get lost, too."
Kansas plays their first exhibition game Nov. 4 at Allen Field House against Myjava of the Slovak Republic. Their regular season-opener will be Nov. 15 against North Carolina in the State Farm Tipoff Classic in West Lafayette, Ind.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 27).
The more you practice, the better you'll get, until you surpass your own expectations. That may take a while, so don't give up. Perseverance is part of the lesson. A difficult situation at work makes you stronger and helps you achieve long-term success. Follow a friend's lead to find opportunities but not in how you spend your money.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
An older person wants to be obeyed, and you'd be smart to do so. This person either grades your exams or signs your paychecks. He or she has a sense of humor under a gruff exterior. If you can activate it, this day could turn out to be pleasurable. Try compliments.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 6.
Something you've been learning lately is going to be directly applicable on your job today. You see? You were right about that tax deduction. It really is job-related, even though it was fun. If you haven't been learning anything like that, sign up for a class and make sure you get a receipt.
Gemini (May 21-June 21)! Today is a 6. There's an easy way to get the money you need. You've got many interests and talents, so why shouldn't you have many jobs? Your energy level is very high, and there's still time left in the day. You could cram in two or three full-time jobs. If you're like most Gemini, you're hyperactive and hyper-smart. So why not get hyper-rich?
Cancer (June 22-July 23) Today is a 5. You're in love, and it might be with a person you've known for years. This looks like a recommemt — one you find fascinating. While you'll at it, let your kids (if any) know you'll always be there for them. It's always nice to hear it again.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22: Today) is a 6.
Your body may be at work today, but your heart and mind are back home. There's a problem you're trying to solve, and every time you come up with a solution, the other person seems to argue. It could be a struggle for dominance, and that's a game nobody wins. If you give up trying to control, you could access true power.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22); Today is a 6.
You're learning new things all the time, and that's making you more attractive. You're being noticed by people the next level up. Don't worry about a thing.
You look marvelous. You'll be able to handle the stress of being immensely popular. You can get through your initial shyness and become the star you've known deep inside you are.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
You probably ought to clean your house this morning before you leave for work. You may get the opportunity to invite an attractive person over tonight. You'd definitely like to do that, but if your living room is full of laundry, it could be awkward.

**Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)**: Today is a 6.
Trust the little voice whispering in your ear. It's a friendly one. You're learning quickly, although it may not seem quickly enough. A tough assignment and a tougher co-worker are actually pushing you to get past your fear and into the area of your nearest surprise.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is a 6.
Looks like more money is going out than coming in,
but that's OK. It's for a good cause. It's for education
or travel, or possibly both. If you don't already have
such an excursion in mind, wander to the university.
You may find an offer you can't resist.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
This is a good day for you. You're strong, decisive,
confident and pushing. You're getting good help from
your friends, and you're providing direction as
needed. It's a good symbiotic relationship, which could
lead to an increase in income. Put it right into savings.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
A goal you have in mind is achievable. It could land in your lap without your doing much. You were willing to do the work and that's important. It makes a good impression and might have been one of the reasons you're lucking out like this.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
You're getting shoved into a corner. By tomorrow,
you'll be in a stronger position. Right now, the deck is
sucked against you. Instead of getting into a brawl,
watch and listen. Figure out what's going on before
you decide what to do next.

Texas back on record-breaking track
The Associated Press
AUSTIN, Texas — Texas running back Ricky Williams has four games left in which to rush for another 444 yards and become the NCAA Division I career rushing leader. But he says that's not what's on his mind when he suits up.
"I don't play for records; I don't think about them when I play," Williams said yesterday. "But if I have a big game and break records, that is something I can celebrate after the game."
Williams is chasing Tony Dorsett, who set the record at 6,082 yards while playing for Pittsburgh from 1973-1976.

(428) .
"The impressive thing about Ricky is that he has bettered the rushing average of every team we've played," said University of Texas coach Mack Brown, whose Longhorns (5-2, 3-1 Big 12) are preparing to travel to No. 7 Nebraska (7-1, 3-1) on Saturday.
The nationally televised game will provide a highly visible arena as Williams contends for the Heisman Trophy as well as the career rushing record.
"The Heisman voters get their ballots this weekend, so they will have their ballot in front of them when we play." Williams said. "It
will be a big game in the Heisman voters' eyes, because it is on national television. A lot of voters don't get to see everyone play."
The last time Texas and Nebraska met, the Longhorns won 37-27 in the Big 12 championship in 1996. Texas wide receiver Wane McGarity, now a senior, caught a 64-yard touchdown putting the Longhorns ahead 30-27.
"It was a great catch, and Wayne hadn't played that much that year either." Williams recalled. "He ran a great corner route and made the safety miss. It was a huge play for us."
McGarity is the top receiver for the Longhorns with three touchdowns and 678 yards on 32 receptions this year.
No-name Steeler stars slash into Chiefs
By Dave Goldborg The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Once again, it was the story of the unsung Steelers.
Oh yes, Jerome Bettis and Kordell Stewart on offense and Levon Kirkland and Carnell Lake on defense did their part as Pittsburgh beat Kansas City 20-13 Monday night. But Lance Brown, Fred McAfee, Hines Ward and Josh Miller did just as much.
Bettis rumbled for 119 yards on 33 carries and Stewart threw a 5-yard TD pass to Charles Johnson with
10:05 left in the game for the winning score.
But just as Pittsburgh seems to replace free agent defectors by turning little-known players into stars, on this night they won because they got contributions from the little guys.
It began on Kansas City's first possession.
After Miller dropped a punt dead on the Kansas City 1-yard-line, Brown blocked a punt that McAfee fell on for a touchdown.
"What more can you say about our kicking game," Steelers coach Bill Cowher said of Miller, who
averaged 46 vards on six punts.
"For the first time I thought that showed some confidence from our team," Cowher said. "It was something to build on for the second half."
And Ward, a running back/wide receiver/quarterback in college at Georgia acted like the new "Slash" by taking a handoff from Stewart and throwing back to him for 17 yards on a third-quarter drive that led to one of Norm Johnson's two field goals.
The win left Pittsburgh (5-2) in a tie with Jacksonville for first place in the AFC Central, while Kansas
City (4-3) fell three games behind Denver and a game behind Oakland in the AFC West.
On their second possession, fullback Tony Richardson, wide open in the end zone, fell as Elvis Grbac threw what appeared to be a TD pass and the Chiefs had to settle for a 20-vard field goal.
Then, on the opening kickoff of the second half, Ted Popson was called for holding on what would have been a 95-yard kickoff return for a touchdown. And later what might have been a 43-yard TD pass from Grbac to Andre Rison hit the receiver and bounced away.
Volleyball team hopes to finish in middle of Big 12
Kansas volleyball coach Ray Bechard said this season was about raising the bar.
The Jayhawks have focused on technical, fundamental skills and have tried to build on them.
Bechard said it was imperative that the Jayhawks keep improving throughout the season to reach their ultimate goal of finishing in the middle of the Big 12 Conference.
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Now, just past the season's halfway mark, the Jayhawks have moved up from 10th to eighth in the Big 12 standings.
And they aren't done yet.
"At this point in the season, some teams start to coast on in and some choose to get better," Bechard said. "We have to chose to get better."
Bochard said defensive adjustments were the most critical improvements needed from last year. So far, they have been successful, posting more blocks (210) and more digs (957) than their opponents (189.5 and 953).
"If you look at the matches we've had success in, the defensive statistics will correlate with how we did." Bechard said. "That kept us hanging around against Nebraska last weekend."
Middle blocker Amanda Reves
leads the Jayhawks in blocking, contributing 109, more than half of the team's total.
Reves also leads the Jayhawks offensively. She has 259 kills on the season. Outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht has contributed 209, helping the Jayhawks best their opponents in attacks 1,116 to 1,053.
Setter Laura Rohde, who ranks second in career assists at Kansas, leads the Jayhawks with 868 assists so far this season, adding to their total of 986 — 39 better than their opponents.
Beachard said the Jayhawks had to keep improving. Although they have posted more kills, digs, blocks and sets than their opponents.
Bechard said the ratio of service aces to service errors is a concern.
While the Jayhawks have served 127 aces — serves that the other team could not return — they have committed 246 errors — either serving the ball out or into the net.
For the rest of the season, the Jayhawks will face only conference opponents. To move up in the Big 12 standings, Bechard said they had to improve technically.
"Those little things have kept us in big matches, and we can't lose sight of the details." Bechard said.
John Blake: May lose position or Oklahoma coach.
The Jayhawks will play Oklahoma at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow at Allen Fieldhouse.

NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma again approaches the end of the football season not with the anticipation of a bowl trip or
conference title but with the feeling that a new coach will be running things next year.
has prompted widespread speculation that Blake will be let go with two years remaining on his contract.
Oklahoma fans are so hungry for a return to glory that after the Sooners lost to Texas a few weeks ago, it was reported that a group of heavyweight backers were putting together a package to lure back Barry Switzer.
Switzer, who led the Sooners to three national titles before being forced out after probation and a player scandal in 1989, has said many times that he has no desire to return at age 61.
While the Switzer rumors have subsided, the speculations have not. Jim Donnan of Georgia, Tommy Bowden of Tulane, Mike Bellotti of Oregon, Gary Barnett of Northwestern and Florida defensive coordinator Bob Stoops are among those mentioned as possible replacements.
Athletic director Joe Castiglione has refused to discuss Blake's future during the season. But the prevailing feeling last week was that if Blake was to have any chance of saving his job, the Sooners would need to beat rival Oklahoma State.
The Sooners ended up losing 41.26 while committing 19 penalties for 177 yards. They also lost despite 220 yards rushing by tailback De'Mond Parker. He has topped 200 yards three times in the past three seasons, and Oklahoma is 0-3 in those games.
President David Boren has said all along that any decision on coaching changes would be made at the end of the season, after Castiglione has been able to make appropriate evaluations.
Blake was hired in December 1995 to replace Howard Schnellenberger, who went 5-5-1 in his only season at Oklahoma. Schnellenberger had replaced Gary Gibbs, who took over after Switzer and went 44-23-2 in six seasons. But he wasn't popular with the media or fans and was let go one year after leading the Sooners to a 9-3 finish.
Gibbs' aloofness and Schnellenberger's old-school ways did not endear them to their players. Blake, on the other hand, is popular with the players, who continue to back him.
"I don't think the coach should catch all the blame," said senior defensive tackle Kelly Gregg. "Coach has never thrown a block, never made a tackle. It's unfair for him to catch all the criticism. Sometimes you've got to look at the players, and, hopefully, we're not as bad as our record is."
Blake came to the job after serving as defensive line coach for the Dallas Cowboys.
Oklahoma thought the best way to revive the program was through recruiting, and Blake was a strong recruiter.
While the Sooners have had solid recruiting classes, they have been in disarray on the field, particularly the offense.
Blake said when he was hired that he wanted a multiple offense, and he hired Dick Winder of Texas Tech to run it. But after two years of inconsistent results, Blake fired Winder and said the Sooners were returning to the option game.
That has proved disastrous. Brandon Daniels, who was moved from defensive back to quarterback to run the option, is now the No. 3 choice at the position.
Oklahoma is 2-5, Blake is 9-21 and unlikely to get a chance to improve next season.

Piazza signs for $91 million largest contract in baseball
NEW YORK — Mike Piazza is staying put, with the New York Mets expected to announce a $91 million, seven-year contract today.
Associated Press
The All-Star catcher and the Mets agreed to the deal, the richest in baseball history, last week during talks in Los Angeles.
He was eligible to file for free agency starting Thursday — the day after the New York Yankees, won the
Mets
Plazza, 30. finished a $15 million, two-year con tract this year. He was traded from Los Angeles to Florida in May after the Dodgers failed to sign him to a multiyear deal. The Marlins traded him to the Mets a week later.
World Series — but did not. As it turned out, details of the deal already had been finalized.
He hit .329 this year with 32 home runs and 111 RBL
The contract would be a record for total dollars and average money per season, topping Pedro Martinez's $75 million, six-year deal with Boston.
The deal appears to signal that the Mets will attempt to trade catcher Todd Hundley, due to be paid $2.5 million next season and $6 million in 2005 as part of a $21 million, four-year contract.
The Mets, according to published reports, also are close to signing ace left-hander Al Leiter to a four-year contract worth $32 million. Reports said the signing was imminent, and an announcement was expected early this week.
Leiter, 17-6 with a 2.47 ERA in 1998, said from his home in Florida that he and the Mets were close to a deal but that it had not been finalized.

Royals finances less majestic
Depleting funds likely to require smaller payroll
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The years of counting on the late Ewing Kauffman's money to keep the Kansas City Royals afloat have ended, but the team won't be gutted, Royals' general manager Herk Robinson said.
The Associated Press
"Quite frankly, we are no longer able to sustain the type of financial losses we've been having," Robinson said. "That money from Mr. K has been depleting rapidly."
The Royals have been without a permanent owner since Kauffman died in 1993. Kauffman left behind more than $37 million to cover the team's losses for several years. He decreed that when the team was purchased — for a starting price of $75 million — the money from the sale would go to charity.
With Kauffman's money running out and without a new owner, the Royals that take the field next season could be without many high-cost veterans and could find themselves relying instead on players from the minor leagues.
"It's not like we'll be gutting the team," Robinson said. "We're not going to go to the extremes. It won't be an $8 million payroll like in Montreal or Pittsburgh. But we need to break even financially or very close to it. And to do that, we need to play our vounter players."
Last season, the Royals' payrol was about $35 million.
The team has been losing money, but Robinson and Royals' chief executive officer David Glass would not confirm exact figures.
The most likely new owner, New York lawyer Miles Prentice, already has said that if he buys the team, he won't sustain those losses. He said he foresaw a payroll in the $25 million range.
"What happened around here is that fans got, well, we all got a little spoiled having Mr. K," Robinson said. "He bankrolled the team's
But Robinson said he hasn't talked to Prentice about the payroll or the team's direction in the future.
"We can't operate with the assumption the team will be sold in the next few months. What if it isn't sold? We have to be able to sustain
ourselves as if the team isn't sold.
We have to protect the franchise," he said.
Robinson said he thought fans would be
willing to support a young team
"You know, there are a lot of reasons to come out and see a baseball game at Kauffman Stadium," he said. "Improvements have been made to the stadium. There will be stars like Ken Griffen Jr., and Mark McGwire there from other teams.
"Baseball is a different product today than it used to be anyway. You have to entertain the fan in a lot of different ways other than just on the field. The whole experience has to be entertaining."
Glass still thinks that big-market teams will agree to some type of revenue sharing with small-market teams. Now, the small-market Royals receive only $7 million each season in revenue sharing.
"All you have to do is look at the NFL," Glass said. "Attendance is up. Everyone is selling out those big stadiums. It's a competitive situation for everyone, and financially, everyone does well. The pie for everyone
"We can't operate with the assumption the team will be sold in the next few months."
Herk Robinson General manager
gets bigger every year. Baseball simply has to do that eventually."
the Royals appeared to be starting a youth movement in 1985 when they unloaded several veterans and called up younger players. But the next season, the Royals traded for high-priced veterans such as Jay Bell and Jeff King.
"You want to put the best product on the field for the fans, the product you think will be competitive even though you know you should perhaps go the other direction with more younger players," Robinson said.
Next year, the Robinson said the Royals won't have a choice. The plan for the off season is to keep a few veterans to lead a corps of farm-system products. But players such as Jeff King, Kevin Appier, Jeff Montgomery, Tim Belcher, Jose Offerman and Hal Morris could be playing elsewhere next season.
"We'll be able to keep some of the veterans," Robinson said. "And don't get me wrong. We'll be able to sign some free agents, too. We're not gutting the team. It's going to have a more youthful look. You're going to see the Beltrans and the Giambis and Febles. These kids are exciting to watch, and I think the fans will take to them."
The task of molding that youth falls to manager Tony Muser.
"That's fine by me," he said. "I spent a lot of years in the minor leagues teaching and managing, so I'm not unaccustomed to doing that. These kids will have to get there in a hurry, and it's my job to see they get there."

Default rate slides for student loans
Job growth, laws lead to low figure
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The default rate on student loans fell into single digits for the first time, the Education Department reported yesterday, citing an agency and congressional crackdown as well as an improved economy.
The drop to a 9.6 percent default rate for fiscal year 1996 was the sixth annual decline since rates peaked at 22.4 percent in 1990.
Congress passed legislation in 1990 and 1992 to crack down on borrowers
and trade schools such as beauty colleges and truck-driving schools that promised more job training than they delivered. And the country began to pull out of a recession in early 1991.
"The student loan program is now a shining example of government providing opportunity with accountability," President Clinton said in a statement.
Stricter government controls have eliminated more than 1,000 schools from the program, while a better economy means jobs will be available for those who finish college. Clinton said.
The department noted that the default rate has declined even though the volume of loans has risen from about $14 billion in 1992 to $38 billion in the 1998 fiscal year. Because of the volume,
In 1991, for example, the department had to repay $3.6 billion in default claims to lenders. In fiscal 1998, the department had to repay $2.8 billion.
actual dollar savings are not as dramatic as they could have been.
The department was still compiling information on how much money it was able to collect from students who had defaulted, but preliminary estimates show an increase from $900 million last year to $800 million this year.
A new higher education bill approved by Congress will further streamline the program and make it more accountable, said Rep. Bill Goodling, R-Pa., chairman of the Education and Workforce Committee.
"Less time and money spent on delinquent loans means more time and
money to help needy students receive financial assistance." Goodling said.
Education Secretary Richard Riley said current borrowers could lessen the chance of default by consolidating loans under a new rate of 7.46 percent, made possible under the newly enacted Higher Education Amendments of 1998. The deadline for doing so is Jan. 31, 1999.
In its report yesterday, the department said 197,000 borrowers at 7,500 schools had defaulted on their loans. The highest default rates were at the trade schools, with an average of 18.2 percent. The lowest default rates were at four-year colleges and universities, at about 7 percent.
Netanyahu clears barrier in Mideast peace efforts
The Associated Press
TEL AVIV, Israel — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu won a no-friendship motion yesterday in parliament, getting past the first of several political hurdles aimed at challenging a new Middle East peace deal.
But the threat of early elections loomed after legislators decided to present a bill to parliament calling for a spring vote.
Selling the new land-for-pace deal to hard-liners in his coalition government has not been easy. The brutal killing of a Jewish settler, apparently by Palestinians, yesterday in the West Bank city of Hebron was likely to make the process even harder.
In a demonstration outside the premier's home later yesterday, hundreds of right-wing Israelis carried torches and angry signs calling for Netanyahu's resignation. Many chanted "Bibi is a traitor," referring to the prime minister by his nickname.
Some protesters scuffled with police and tried to break through a barrier. Police said 21 people were arrested.
Still, lawmakers from the dovish Labor party and its left-wing partners made good on a promise to back the premier in parliament, at least until the new accord signed last Friday with Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat is implemented.
"We believe the prime minister should be removed from office and we believe in
early elections ... but we will not trade our principles for political gain. For the sake of peace, we will not allow "Netanyahu to fall. Labor lawmaker Eli Goldsmith said.
The no-fidence motion brought by the tiny, extreme right-wing Moleted party failed to pass, with eight votes in favor, 21 against and 15 abstentions.
Iran
Netanyahu: No-confidence motion
failed yesterday.
A. majority of the 120
lawmakers, including Netanyahu, did not show up for the vote, which had almost no chance of passing.
Labor's support in Israel's parliament, the Knesset, is key to Netanyahu, who faces growing opposition to the peace plan from within his own coalition government.
Honduran government removes citizens out of hurricane's path
The Associated Press
LA CEIBA, Honduras — The Honduran government sent air force planes to pluck residents off remote Caribbean islands yesterday in the face of the most powerful hurricane in a decade to threaten Central America.
Hurricane Mitch became a Category 5 hurricane — the strongest category — yesterday with winds of 180 mph. At 3 p.m., Mitch's center was 35 miles southeast of Honduras' Swan Island and was moving north-northwest at 8 mph.
"Mitch is expected to remain a very dangerous hurricane capable of causing catastrophic damage," the U.S. National Weather Service said in a statement from its National Hurricane Center in Miami.
Hurricane Mitch posed no immediate threat to the United States. The storm was expected to remain in the northwest Caribbean for the next five days, the center said.
Jerry Jarrrell, the center's director, said Mitch was the strongest hurricane to strike the Caribbean since Gilbert in 1988.
declared a state of alert and told coastal residents to leave their homes for safer ground farther inland.
In La Ceiba, on Honduras' western coast, people stood in long lines at filling stations under a steady rain.
President Carlos Flores Facusse
The president ordered all air force planes and helicopters to evacuate people from the Bay islands, a string of small islands off the central coast.
Swinwick Jackson, a fisherman on one of the islands, said he had tied up his boats and was planning to take his family to stay with a relative on higher ground. Speaking by telephone from Utila, 20 miles north of La Ceiba, he said most tourists had left the island Sunday but that some were stranded and that hotels were moving them to houses in the mountains.
"Mitch is closing in, and God help us in the coming hours," said Utila Mayor Monterrey Cardenas.
Police representative Ivan Mejia said three rivers — the Coco, Segovia and Cruta — all overflowed their banks yesterday along the eastern Honduran coast.
Information about sniper could result in FBI reward
The Associated Press
AMHERST, N.Y. — Investigators announced a $100,000 reward yesterday for information leading to the arrest of the sniper who shot Dr. Barnett Sleipan. The announcement was made the same day the abortion provider was buried.
Hundreds of family, colleagues and patients attended the burial, several with children in tow. There was a heavy police presence as well.
"He brought these two into the world," said Alan Dickison, hand-in-hand with his 4-year-old son, Connor, and 2-year-old daughter, Kelsey. "He was for children. This is all he lived for."
The children, Dickison said, are what the slain doctor should be remembered for, not the abortions that made up a small part of his practice.
Hours before the 52-year-old obstetrician-gynecologist was killed by a high-powered rifle shot through his kitchen window on Friday night, his wife faxed local police a warning from the National Abortion Federation, a group of abortion providers, warning of possible violence.
Mrs. Sleipan did not request police protection and no action was taken, Chief John Askey said. Canadian and American authorities had issued safety tips to doctors Oct. 20, because four earlier sniper attacks on abortion providers in the past four years all took place within weeks of Nov. 11, Veteran's Dav. known as Remembrance Dav in Canada.
None of the earlier attacks were fatal. While American and Canadian authorities acknowledged similarities, they would not say whether they had positively linked Slepian's killing with the earlier shootings.
A letter from President and Mrs. Clinton, read at the private funeral, said: "Violence in our society hurts all, but few have had to endure its effects so personally."
Police were pursuing tips that included the sighting of a white car in the area and another car with Canadian license plates, Askey said.
"We're not leaving any stone unturned ... We want to get to the bottom of this," said FBI spokesman Bernard Tolbert. The reward was financed by the FBI.

Watson Library patrons steamed
Broken compressor cause for high heat
By Chad Bettes
Kanson staff writer
Students in Watson Library were a little hot under the collar Monday and yesterday, but it wasn't because they were angry. An equipment breakdown caused the building temperature to soar into the 80s and 90s.
Kent Miller, library facilities manager, said the trouble began sometime Sunday night, probably after the library closed. At that time, the steam heating system uncontrollably started pumping heat into Watson.
"An air compressor went belly up deep in the bowels of Watson." Miller said.
Bob Porter, assistant director of facilities operations, said when the compressor broke down, steam valves on the heating system were left wide open. This is comparable to leaving a furnace on without a thermostat to control it.
Although that problem was fixed Monday morning when the valves were shut manually, the situation was complicated because the air conditioning system is inoperable. Porter said to accommodate a renovation project on the air conditioning system, the chilled water system had been drained.
The only way to cool the building from its high temperatures was to use outside air, Porter said.
Fans are being used to circulate air in certain areas and some doors and windows are open for fresh air. However, unseasonably warm weather is not helping the building cool down.
Porter said he was concerned about the temperature in the building as well as the humidity. The University libraries try to control humidity to better preserve the books and other holdings.
Alicia Sanchez, Hutchinson freshman, said she was tempted to study outside because the library was so hot.
It is estimated that more than 1,270 patrons use Watson Library daily. Yesterday, only a few students were using the top floor of Watson Library, where temperatures were the highest.
"But after a while, you get used to it," she said.
She was unaware that the library was having equipment problems, so she assumed at first that the University was trying to save money on heating and cooling costs.
Melissa Mahan, Minneapolis sophomore, said she was surprised when she entered the library.
"Geez, it's really hot in here." Mahan said. She said she took off her sweatshirt to cool down and wanted to get her work done quickly so she could leave the library.

A urban legend predicting a mass murder at a college campus on Halloween night has reared its ugly head at the University of Kansas.
KU sorority chapters have been in the center of the legend hoopla as various prowler citings have been reported the past few days.
"There's a lot of panic in some of the houses right now," said Wes Simons, assistant director of Greek programs. "A couple things have been taken too seriously. It's become a bigger issue because of rumors floating around."
According to one version of the legend, a psychic predicted the murder on "The Oprah Winfrey Show," and said that the massacre would take place inside a sorority
house.
In a related article in the Michigan State University newspaper, The State News, Audrey Pass, senior publicist for the "Oprah Winfrey Show," said that there was no truth to the story.
A member of Alpha Delta Pi sorority, 1600 Oxford Road, told police Sunday that she saw an unidentified man walking in the house's basement at 3:30 a.m. Saturday.
While some of the stories were rumors, other incidents were not.
Another member also told police that $45, a check card and a credit card were stolen from her purse, which was in the house, that night.
Police said they thought the man entered the house by breaking the code on the keyless entry key pad.
Amner McGraw, Alpha Delta Pi president,

Group challenges milk campaign
White milk mustaches decorated the upper lips of many KU students during yesterday's Milk Mustache tour.
The national campaign said its purpose for the tour, which will visit 50 colleges and universities, was to educate people about the health benefits of milk.
"I want to remind people that this is an advertisement," said Schmitt, Harrisonburg, Va., graduate student. "The milk industry wants to sell a product."
But the campaign did not bring smiles to all students' faces.
Schmitt said the campaign was not truthful in its education, and he distributed fliers during the campaign that read: "Milk Does Nobody Good Don't Believe The Hype."
Michael Schmitt of the Proponents for Animal Liberation disagreed with the campaign.
intake of animal protein, he said.
Drinking milk does not reduce osteoporosis, Schmitt said. The only way to reduce osteoporosis is to reduce the
imake of animal protein, he said.
Large amounts of animal protein,
Schmitt said, leach the calcium out of
hones.
But milk proponents said that milk offers calcium that keeps the body strong and that the proteins in milk are good for the body.
Despite PAL's objections toward milk, Lynn Bott, head athletic trainer, said that participation at the campaign was steady.

Noise disrupts Blake Hall classes
Students and faculty in Blake Hall had to open windows yesterday to combat a malfunctioning air conditioner, but noise from construction outside caused even more frustration.
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
The building's air conditioning water tower, which takes the heat out of the building, was clogged by leaves and made it feel as if the air conditioning system wasn't running.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said workers unclogged the tower twice yesterday once in the morning and again in the afternoon.
"It's very loud. I don't like it," said Shawnau Haught, Emporia senior. "They would never do it in the summer when it was convenient."
Haught said the noise came from jackhammers, bulldozers and a truck that drove around the building.
Since the air conditioning didn't
work, students tried to open the windows, but loud noise from the construction of a parking lot south of Blake Hall disrupted classes.
Jim Modig, director of design and construction management, said the construction of the parking lot, being done by Green B. A. Construction Company Inc., 1207 Iowa St., was supposed to have been completed at the end of August, but because of the company's busy schedule, the completion
date had been pushed back to Friday.
Students also complained about fumes coming into the classrooms.
"It was not intended for the work to continue this far into the semester," Modiz said.
"We had fumes coming in, so we had to shut our windows," said Sarah Davidson. Emporia senior.
Donald Haider-Markel, post doctoral associate of political science and government, teaches a class in Blake Hall.
"Today I had to shout to be heard over the noise." he said.
He said the noise from the construction started last spring when the Blake Annex was demolished and said the noise had forced him to speak louder while lecturing.
Committee has meeting on possible media policy
"We are trying to keep any rules away from the content of the media," he said. "That starts to infringe on the First Amendment rights of students."
By Jason Pearce Kansan staff writer
The discussion of a possible Internet-media policy at the University of Kansas was on the agenda last night for a new Student Senate subcommittee.
The new-media subcommittee, acting on a recommendation from the Academic Computing Center, began a broad-based discussion of what a new-media policy could entail in the future.
Holly Krebs, Oskaloosa junior, said that any policy would need to clarify the University's legal rights and responsibilities of providing the new media service to students.
One of the main concerns of the discussion centered on the University's liability for offensive or illegal material such as copyrighted graphics or music samples.
The committee was unsure whether the University had the obligation to monitor content on the Web pages.
Brett Stoppel, president of the Kansas University Campus Internet Association, said the objective of the subcommittee would be to decide what type of policy should govern new media. These policies could stipulate how student and faculty Web pages, list servers, chat rooms and other Internet media could be controlled.
Stoppel said the subcommittee formed in response to a recent incident where a student's Web page was altered after a viewer of the page became offended by a graphic.
"We had a lot of debate on what the University could do legally to control the information." Stompel said.
Stoppel said the committee used print-media analogies to explain the purpose of the Internet and how it could be used.
Six students and a faculty member attended last night's meeting. Future meetings will be at 7 p.m. Tuesdays until a policy recommendation by the committee has been reached.
"If they find any possibly illegal material on the Web pages, we need to know what actions they can take," Krebs said.
Krebs said the University could either investigate possible illegal material and ask the parties to remove the material or leave final responsibility with the creator.

K-State student dies in possible murder-suicide
MANHATTAN — A Kansas State University student and a Junction City man were found shot to death Monday in what police said may have been a murder-suicide.
Riley County Police discovered the bodies Monday morning while responding to a call from a man threatening to commit suicide, Riley County Police Captain Steve French said.
The victims were identified as Kansas State student Thomas Richardson Jr., 22, and Junction City resident Brent Lawless, 36.
French said an autopsy confirmed that Lawless had died from a self-inflicted gun
shot wound, but he said the case had not been ruled officially a murder-suicide.
French said there was evidence of a relationship that went afoul between the man, but he declined to elaborate.

ROYAL OAK, Mich. — Physician Jack Kevorkian's attorney told jurors yesterday that police had no reason to stop his client in a confrontation that led to misdemeanor charges.
Kevorkian and associate Georges Reding, physician, are charged with obstructing police and resisting arrest. They face up to 90 days in jail and fines of $500 each if convicted.
The confrontation took place May 7 outside William Beaumont Hospital, where the two had taken the body of Matt Johnson, 26, of Aptos, Calif. He is the last known of about 120 people who Kevorkian said he had helped commit suicide.
Reding's lawyer, Rebecca Walsh, said her client was arrested because of a police vendetta against Kevorkian.
Assistant City Attorney Jim Marcinkowski said the officers' actions were justified.

Kevorkian wasn't in court Monday or yesterday. He earlier received Judge Daniel Sawicki's permission to skip part or all of the trial. The judge cautiously not to
make inferences about Kevorkian's guilt or innocence based on his absence.
Three previous trials against Kevorkian that involved five deaths ended in acquittals, and a fourth trial was declared a mistrial.

Georgia security minister resians after revolt
WORLD
TBILIJSI, Georgia — Georgia's security minister has quit, a week after mutinous soldiers staged a one-day revolt against the president.
President Eduard Shevardnadze accepted the resignation of Security Minister Dzhemal Gakhlokide, the Georgian presidential press service said yesterday.
Gakhokidze said he resigned because financial shortages made it impossible to carry out key reforms in the country's security system, the Interfax news agency reported.
Gakhokidze likely will take the post of deputy secretary of the Georgian National Security Council, a job he was offered Monday after he resigned, Interfax reported.
Under Gakhokidez's leadership, the security ministry failed to head off a number of violent outbreaks, including a rocket attack on Shevardnadze, the abduction of four U.N. observers and the revolt.
Argentina's leader visits Britain; first in 16 years
LONDON — Carlos Menem arrived in Britain yesterday, the first visit by an Argentine president since the two countries went to war in 1982 about the Falkland Islands.
Menem's jet landed at London's Heathrow Airport with the Argentine flag and Britain's Union Jack flying outside the cockpit.
Today, Menem was scheduled to attend a reconciliation service at St. Paul's Cathedral and lay a wreath for the 970 people killed in the Falklands War — 255 of them British soldiers. Britain won the skirmish about the windswept archipelago in the south Atlantic in 74 days.
During his six-day visit, Menem also is scheduled to meet with Prime Minister Tony Blair and Queen Elizabeth II.
ON THE RECORD
Menem's first scheduled event was a working breakfast today with British business leaders, part of his drive to attract investment to Argentina.
He has brought 100 of Argentina's top business leaders with him in an attempt to boost commercial relations between the two countries.
Both the Argentine and British governments have stressed that Menem's visit is one for reconciliation, not recrimination.

Rumors that someone entered the Gamma Phi Beta house and ran around inside are false, said Leigh Bottiger, chapter president. Bottiger also dispelled the rumor the sorority would be evacuated.
"The rumor mill gets spinning so fast, it's hard to find the truth," Bottiger said. "No one here is evacuating."
Simons said the two incidents were assumed to be unrelated and that KU sorority members should not plan on evacuating their homes.
Jim Kitchen, dean of students. asked students in a formal statement to act responsibly.
"We are not sure whether these reports are related to Halloween or not." Kitchen said. "We encourage all students not to take risks with their safety."
Simons said police security around all of the sorority houses had been increased.
The campus Halloween murder legend originated in the Midwest about 1668, and perhaps was inspired by the murder of nine nurses in a Chicago rooming house that year.
Since then, it has had numerous outbreaks across the country, most recently in Michigan. The 1998 movie *Urban Legend* also may have triggered these reports.

KU loan default rates below average
Students can get advice on keeping up with payments
By Steph Brower
Kansas staff writer
The University of Kansas is beating the national average in student loan default rates.
The United States Department of Education reported Monday that default rates for the 1996 fiscal year had dropped to 9.6 percent, the first time rates were in the single digits. The percentage of students at four-year colleges and universities who defaulted on loan payments was 7 percent. The University's default rate for 1996 was 5.4 percent.
Default occurs when a borrower is 180 days late in making loan payments. Loan repayment must begin after graduation.
Brenda Maigaard, associate director of financial aid, credited students for the University's low rates.
"I think that students are responsi
ble about repayment." she said.
Maigaard said 11,800 KU students had loans during the 1996-97 academic year. This number includes subsidized, unsubsidized and Perkins loans.
She said the Financial Aid Office tried to instruct students in the details of having and repaying student loans. Instructional brochures are available at the office and appointments can be made to talk with assistant directors.
"The key to keeping the default rate low is educating students as far as their responsibilities." Maigaard said.
Once students leave school, the Financial Aid Office is no longer involved with their loan, Maigaard said. Students also become responsible for keeping track of their payment responsibilities.
"Once repayment begins, the burden of proof falls on the borrower," she said.
The Direct Loan Servicing Center works with the University on student loan matters. The center deals with the payment aspect of a student loan.
Jessica Tinker, borrower services representative at the center's upstate New York office, said that the center

wasn't worried about defaulting on his loan. Potter has a Ford loan, which is a subsidized loan.
"I ideally, I'd like to make enough money so that I can pay it off in one lump sum, but I'll make payments if I have to." he said.
Potter said that he would probably ask his parents if he had problems with his loan but that the staff at the Financial Aid Office was great when he was applying for his loan.
"The Financial Aid Office is really helpful," he said. "If you need a loan, don't hesitate to go to them."
City Commission makes noise about loud music
By Chris Fickott
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students and Lawrence residents cruising in town playing loud music in their vehicles may have to crank the volume down to avoid a fine.
The Lawrence City Commission received a draft of an ordinance restricting loud sound amplification systems for vehicles last night.
nances already exist in Olathe, Topeka and Independence, Mo.
The proposed ordinance would prohibit the operation of any car radio, compact disc, tape player, speaker or amplifier that produces audible sound more than 50 feet from the vehicle. Violators of the ordinance would be subject to a maximum fine of $500 or imprisonment of up to six months.
1950
The commission will decide whether to adopt the ordinance after city, police and municipal court officials decide how the ordinance will be prosecuted.
Dave Corliss, city director of legal services, said that no cases in Kansas involving an interpretation of a municipal noise ordinance existed and that the First Amendment allowed for reasonable restrictions on the time, place and manner of public expression.
Lt. Ray Urbanek of the Lawrence Police Department said the ordinance probably would be enforced in municipal court much like a traffic infraction.

Corrliss said cities have the authority to approve ordinances that protect public health, safety and welfare.

Mike Wildgen, city manager, said the loud car stereo ordinance would be hard to enforce because vehicles were moving targets.
Commissioner Bonnie Augustine said the ordinance should be used as a tool to limit loud car stereos and that the ordinance was not a panacea.
Corliss said police would enforce the ordinance where possible and that the ordinance was not intended to empower citizens to report loud car stereos.
“It’s going to be very tempting for a resident to say, ‘I heard somebody driving by, and I think it was the Doobie Brothers.’” he said.
Corliss said citizens did not have
training that would allow them to judge whether sound was coming from a specific vehicle or if that vehicle was more than 50 feet away.
He said if citizens called in reports of loud car stereos, the offender might not be prosecuted because of a lack of evidence.
SUA to screen date rape movie at Lied Center
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
The 1995 film, A Reason to Believe, will be screened at 7 p.m. at the Lied Center. A panel of four experts on date rape will answer questions after the film.
A film that explores painful facets of friendship, trust and college politics through the framework of date rape will be shown at the University of Kansas tonight after having traveled to several college campuses across the country.
"Sometimes characters of a film help to penetrate the message better than somebody who lectures about it," said Leah Humphrey, Kearney, Mo., senior and Student Union Activities program coordinator for feature films.
The screening is organized by SUA and co-sponsored by the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, Delta Gamma sorority and the Rape Victim Survivor Service.
Participating in the panel are Teresa Schwab, sexual assault prevention and education program coordinator with the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center; Sarah Jane Russell, director of Rape Victim Survivor Service; Philip Hart, a volunteer advocate with the Rape Victim Survivor Service; and Barb Norris, chaplain with the Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
The one hour and 49 minute film was shot in 30 days for $175,000 and was the directorial debut of Douglas Tirola, said Rolling Stone magazine.
It stars Allison Smith, star of CBS sitcom Kate & Allie, whose visit to a toga party at her boyfriend's fraternity turns into a nightmare when she is raped by her boyfriend's fraternity brother, played by Jay Underwood.
Smith, who later turns to an on-campus feminist group for help, finds past friendships dissolving and some people getting involved only to further their agendas.
The film features music from R.E.M., Blind Melon, Material Overkill and other bands.
The film was shot in more than 50 locations and at the University of Cincinnati after having been turned down by nine other universities in Ohio because of the content of the film, said the Trimark Pictures' Web site.
Kathy Rose-Mockry, program director of Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and associate director of the Student Development Center, has seen portions of the film and hopes it will be a good catalyst for discussion.
She said rane cases were underreported.
"While there is information, rape cases still occur," she said. "This is not an indication that education is not working but that the continuation of education is important."
The tickets cost $3 and will be available at the SUA box office or the Lied CENTER. SUA paid $50 for the film.

Right to free speech doesn't end with KU students Web pages
The University will be treading on shaky ground if it implements policies regulating the content of student Web pages.
Two weeks ago, in response to advice from the American Civil Liberties Union and KU Legal Services, three Templin Hall residents removed an allegedly offensive quotation from their Templin Revolution Web site.
The groups said the obscenity laden quotation, attributed to a former University housing employee, was potentially libelous. KU Academic Computing Services threatened to remove the Kansas University Campus Internet Association's Web page, which contained a link to the students' Web site, from the University server.
Rightfully, KUCIA refused to remove the link and defended the students' First Amendment rights to determine the content of their Web page. The students were aware of their constitutional rights, but after their consultation with ACLU and a Legal Services for Students, they decided to remove the quote to avoid a potential libel suit from the former University employee.
Nonetheless, legal action rests in the hands of the quote's alleged author and a judge, not with ACS or any University employee. Housing Director Ken Stoner originally brought attention to the Web site. Stoner declined to comment about who he discussed the matter with, and the students were not directly contacted by the administration.
But Stoner's blatant attempt at unlawful censorship should not be
The University should not control the content of Web pages.
condoned or ignored, especially in an academic atmosphere supposedly set up to foster free expression. Stoner now says he regrets that his actions were misunderstood. He said he is not an advocate of censorship.
Most importantly is that the establishment of these regulations would almost inevitably violate students rights to free speech. Kimberly Dayton, professor of law, said content-based restrictions on university Web sites were prohibited by law.
Reportedly, the University is using this incident as an opportunity to draft policies regulating student Web pages. This is not a path the University should pursue for a multitude of reasons.
The federal government has been attempting to pass legislation regulating Internet content for years but has failed because it would violate our constitutional rights. The only significant piece of Internet-related legislation to be passed so far, The Communications and Decency Act, was overturned and found unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.
Responsibility for libel or defamation lies in the hands of the Web page author. He or she may be sued by the individual claiming libel. It makes no sense for the University to adopt this liability.
In addition, there is no realistic
method of regulating the content of the Internet. As a medium containing an infinite number of links, cyberspace is inherently ungovernable and nearly impossible to police. A hap hazard attempt at censorship on the part of the University would not only be unconstitutional but also practically impossible.
There seems to be a discrepancy between the recent tolerance of gory anti-abortion displays on campus lawns and the current persecution of students Web content. Just like the pro-life demonstrators, the Templin Hall residents were exercising their invaluable right to free speech and political activism because they thought that their hall government was not representing them.
The students shouldn't have been advised to alter the content of their Web site. Their ultimate course of action was rooted in a desire to avoid potential conflict with the University and further conflict with Stoner.
KUCIA should be praised for standing its ground by not removing the link in face of pressure from ACS.
As this issue is dealt with further, we can only hope that its resolution will be used as a precedent to uphold future assertions of students rights to free expression.
The University should not be allowed to formulate an unconstitutional, oppressive policy of Internet censorship.

Humanity must forgive but not forget genocide
Perspective
John Wilson
opinion @ kansan.com
I wandered through a book store on a stormy afternoon. The sky had splattered down rain all day. It pounded down in waves like the ocean, impairing vision to the outside world.
I picked up the first hardback back that I saw. The title read: "We wish to inform you that tomorrow we will be killed with our families."
I flipped through pages detailing the history of an African country called Rwanda. I vaguely remembered the country from newspaper headlines from the mid-90s. I knew wrongs had happened because television cameras had captured the situation. But I hadn't nailed enough attention.
I didn't remember the word "decimation," the killing of every tenth person in the population. I didn't remember the word "genocide." the planned extermination of an entire ethnic group.
"Although the killing was low-tech — performed largely by machete — it was carried out at a dazzling speed; of an original population of about 7.5 million, at least 800,000 people were killed in just 100 days. Rwandans often speak of 1 million deaths, and they may be right. The dead of Rwanda accumulated at nearly three times the rate of Jewish dead during the Holocaust. It was the most efficient mass killing since the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki," Philip Gourevitch, the author, wrote.
I felt a sickening irony. I had heard this story before.
I remembered a summer during high school that I spent in Germany. I remembered hopping off a train in Dachau, the site of one of the harshest Nazi concentration camps. I remembered dark skies above Dachau.
Rwanda's skies must be the same color.
Rwanda's skies must be the same color.
I wrote a high school column about Dachau, about an old Jewish man who taught me a simple lesson. Wandering through the concentration
camps, he said: "Forgive but never forget what hanged here. Never let this happen again."
I spotted the sentence again and again in the column, and I begged anyone who would listen to never let it happen again. I felt better about the world. I had done my part to change something that happened more than 50 years ago when my parents weren't even alive.
The same thing was happening in Rwanda, and I didn't even notice.
But it disturbs me how little we know about Rwanda, the Hutus and the Tutsis. It disturbs me how little the United States did to stop these murders. These stories must be told so that we can avoid repeating our mistakes.
We all know the story of the Holocaust. It is a grim tale that has been ingrained in our minds—and rightfully so. We must remember atrocities, and Hitler's Third Reich was as bloody and wrong a group as any in history.
The Rwandan government implemented a policy that called on everyone in the Hutu majority to murder everyone in the Tutsi minority. Genocide ripped through the country, leaving a comparative handful of Tutsis alive.
I have a hard time finding a moral in genicide. We all come into the story knowing that there is no new moral to be found. Still, for some reason, I think we all should hear these stories.
We should be taught about the atrocities of the Hutus. We should be taught to guard against behavior of that kind. We should be taught not to hate. Far too much blood has been shed through the years.
There are realities in the world with which we must deal with. Every society in the world faces a struggle — a struggle to live together when we share the same bloody history.
We should learn to act in our own time, to watch the world we live in and ensure our future. We must guard against the wrongs of the past. We must learn to live beyond the wrongs of the past. If not, we will be caught in the angry, backbiting web of the past.
we nepe the skies clear. Forgive but never forget.
We hope the rain never comes again.

topic. Already, it is beginning to be ignored, explained away as robbery, or marginalized as a "gay issue." This is unfortunate because Shepard's death has a significance that crosses all boundaries.
PETER G. HENRY
Oct. 16, I attended the candlelight vigil held for Shepard and James Byrd, a black man murdered in Texas. Despite the persistent rain, it took place in front of the Lawrence City Hall.
These people did not assemble on a dark, cold, rainy evening for an insignificant purpose. They came together for justice. Justice and equality are goals that cannot be pushed to the side or imored.
As long as any group in this country has something to fear from any other group, no one can really be free.
of the 200 people assembled there was their diversity. There were grandparents and grandchildren, with every age in between represented. There were members of different ethnic groups. There were gay and straight, male and female, students and professors.
Respect and tolerance are words that have been repeated so often that they seem meaningless. How many times have KU students been told its wrong to hate? It all seems pointless and redundant — until someone like Shepard shows us that hate is alive, feeding on the ignorant like a cancer.
The most striking feature
Shepard's incident shows us that respect and tolerance aren't just words. They're ways of life.
Obviously this issue affects gay people. Shepard was gay and murdered because of it. But straight people have a much larger part in this equation. They must understand that a person's sexual orientation doesn't make them any less (or more)
It was raining heavily, and I was drenched. Smiling back, I gladly accepted. She held the umbrella with one hand, and a tall white candle with the other. The flame of the candle dwindled, to a small blue glow.
Beside me, an older woman smiled and offered space under her umbrella.
As people huddled together, staying out of the rain and trying to hear, there was a definite sense of community. There was determination in the crowd — determination to find an end to violence and hate. This resolve must continue beyond a mere vigil, though. It must spread throughout the towns and cities of our country. Matthew Shepard should have lived. But his death must not be in vain.
She cupped the flame with her hand, and it flared up brighter than before.

many spoke at the vigil, talking about respect and tolerance. They raised several of the issues I've mentioned. Unfortunately, with traffic racing by and low-powered amplification, the words were mostly inaudible as I stood in the back of the crowd. The occasional phrase floated by, but mostly I watched the people surrounding me. Mothers with their children, bearded academics and tattooed students were straining to hear. It was a sense of grief mixed with hope, as if perhaps the tragic story of Matthew Shepard might right the grievous wrenes surrounding us.
than human. Those who murdered Shepard did not see him as a man. They saw him as a hated object that should be punished and destroved.
As long as our country ignores homophobia, we can't have justice. People forget that this very country routinely discriminated against black people only 40 years ago. Derisive humor directed at African Americans was commonplace. The vast majority of our country saw nothing wrong with degrading people because of the color of their skin. We've been wrong before — blatantly, horribly wrong. If we can't learn from the past and apply the lessons of decency and acceptance of others, we are fated to see many more share Matthew Shepard's fate.
Feedback Vigil detractors' arguments wrong
I am writing in defense of the women's circle that takes place as part of Womyn Take Back The Night. In a recent column, Michael Bannon claimed that public accusations of sexual assault made by women in the circle leave the accused with no recourse. His argument is simply not true. If a man believes he has been falsely accused, he can
sue the accuser for slander. In the United States, we can't stop people from making public accusations, and we shouldn't.
I would also like to comment on Stephanie Moore's recent letter in which she claims that her friend was falsely accused of improprieties by someone in a Womyn Take Back The Night circle. She argues that the woman making the accusation did so because she was not willing to take personal responsibility for her actions. The time has come for us to stop blaming women for not taking responsibility and for men to start taking on personal responsibility for themselves. If you want to engage in any kind of sexual contact with another person, make it your responsibility to be absolutely certain that the person is consenting — simply ask permission first. It may sound corny, but it's easy and it is the right thing to do.

Libraries resolve book space bind
Moving companies transfer documents to Budig basement
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
In what the University of Kansas Libraries are calling "The Great Shift of '98," more than 300,000 library holdings are being moved as part of a major reorganization.

Kent Miller, libraries facilities manager, said the project had several phases and was nearing completion. He said in his 30 years of experience at the University, it was the largest move the libraries had undertaken.
The impetus for the project was a severe space shortage at Watson Library.
To provide additional space, the bottom floor of Budig Hall was secured by the libraries. More than 10,500 shelves have been installed and books have been moved into the area that will be known as Anschutz 1 North, Miller said. The new library space is only accessible through Anschutz Science Library, not Budig Hall.
MEYER
All of the materials that had been held in storage at Joseph R. Pearson Hall since 1959 are now located in Anschutz 1 North.
Most of Watson Library's books that were numbered with the Dewey Decimal Classification System also were moved there. Miller said these items were purchased prior to 1971 and were not used as often as more current holdings. Theses and dissertations were other items taken out of Watson Library.
The space that has been freed up will be used to accommodate new collections and items that
were held in an overflow area.
"Getting books out on the shelves is pretty fundamental to the library business, and we haven't been doing a very good job." Miller said. "Now we can."
The shift will benefit the libraries for the next three to four years, when another space shortage is expected.
The shift has posed minor problems to students and staff using the libraries. Miller said the magnitude of the move had caused some chaos in the short term, but the library was doing everything it could to get people to the books they need.
Cindy Pierard, reference librarian, said questions had dropped off in as students have become familiar with the move. She said students had been understanding.
To help library patrons, the library is updating its stacks map on a daily basis and briefing employees on how to assist students. A large sign is located in the Watson Library lobby to keep people updated on the progress as well.
Pierard said students could ask the reference and circulation desk for assistance in locating items.
"It's not our objective to make people suffer," Pierard said. "Students are always welcome to consult with us."
Sarah Stiles, South Haven, Mich., freshman, said she used Watson Library about two times a week. She was aware of the move and had not experienced any problems.
"I just get a new stacks map, and it's pretty easy," Stiles said. Other students in the library expressed similar sentiments.
Kathy Graves, reference librarian, said the inconvenience is being kept to a minimum.
"If an item is tied up one day, it
should be available the next," Graves said.
Two library moving companies were hired to complete the move at a price of almost $300,000. Miller said.
The company hired for the final phase of the project, Wm. B. Meyer of Stanford, Conn., has hired about 25 full-time, temporary employees from the area. Jay Pisano, a company supervisor, said an evening shift of 12 part-time employees has been added to speed up the work. He thought five or so of the employees were University students.
Pisano estimated the move would be completed by Thanks giving.
Candidate Moore to visit for fourth time
Kansan staff writer
Moore will address committee members at tonight's Student Senate committee meeting at 6 at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
Bv Seth Jones
Dennis Moore, Democratic congressional candidate for the 3rd District, will make his third appearance on campus in little more than a week.
Moore has been on campus three times already during this campaign. Friday, he addressed students during lunch in front of Wescoe Hall.
"Moore is definitely showing a strong commitment to the students," he said. "It's been a basic democratic strategy to court the student vote."
Korb Maxwell, legislative director of the Student Legislative Awareness Board, said that Moore is making students feel like they actually do count at the polls.
Maxwell said that Moore's opponent, the incumbent U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, hasn't been able to visit KU students but has

been courting the Lawrence community.
Faculty adviser for KU Young Democrats
Michael Henderson, faculty adviser for KU Young Democrats, said student interest should be high in this race because it's one where every vote counts.
Mark Nevins, representative for the Dennis Moore campaign, said it was no secret that Moore is after KU students' vote.
"If students are registered, they should definitely take advantage of that and vote in this race," he said. "It's so close, students can definitely have an impact on the turnout."
"The student population at KU is so huge," he said. "Snowbarger seems to write them off; he thinks they're apathetic, they don't care...
maybe he doesn't care. Moore wants to get students interested, and yes, he wants to get their vote."
Ward Cook, president of the College Republicans, said the two candidates were taking two different approaches to the same problem
"It it's pretty hard to motivate college students to do anything, much less go out and vote," he said. "Snowbarger knows he doesn't get much support from KU students, so he's concentrating elsewhere. Moore is making repeated trips to KU to try to get them to vote. We won't know which philosophy works until Nov. 3, when the election is over and we see how many KU students actually voted."

Ten miles west of Lawrence Stull captivates imaginations
Going to Hell? Go 10 miles west along W. 6th St. and watch for the Stull sign. But be careful; traipsing through the cemetery is considered trespassing after dark. Beware of the barbed-wire fence surrounding the church.
Tombstones scatter the hill surrounding the Stull Church. AT LEFT: Additional tombstones and views of the run-down church.

STULL
n entrance to hell, a haunted church and a hexed cemetery can all be found 10 miles west of Lawrence in the tiny town of Stull.
Or so the rumors say.
Or so the rumors say. KU students have been talking about the possessed church for decades and have been traveling the short distance to attempt to catch a glimpse of dancing demons or at least to see what the all the fuss is about.
An old church without a roof and crumbling walls— shelter now only to some trees small wild animals and litter— can be seen from county road 442. It rests at the top of Emmanuel Hill, where the small Stull Cemetery is located. Tombstones more than 100 years old cover the hill.
"It's kind of creepy, even in the light of day," said Jennifer Cooke, Manhattan senior, who has made the trin.
Located near Topeka,
Stull shares the capital's 666 ZIP code prefix, which provides an additional rumor for the cause of demonic activity.
Contrary to some belief, the church was abandoned in 1922 when the Stull Church congregation outgrew the building, not because of mysterious fires or an unmerciful witch murder trial.
Rumors of the town's original name of Skull are
false. Stull, before being named after postmaster Sylvester Stull in 1899, was Deer Creek Community.
Although the history and postal reference to the town can be documented, the hearsey is more difficult to prove one way or another.
"I've just heard it's sort of freaky," said Colin McGrath, Topeka senior. "There's supposedly some old building with a circle of death. My friends just told me not to go up there because it's not supposed to be good stuff."
Stull, who gets teased about her last name because of the myths, said she has heard rumors from friends about strange happenings there.
Shannon Stull, Lawrence senior, who says she is of no relation to Sylvester, said the town is "a cute little place, really desolate and quaint."
"I didn't get any bad vibe or anything when I drove through there," she said. "But if you're up there at Halloween you're supposed to hear noises or see ghosts."
"I've heard from friends that it's one of the seven gateways to hell and that satanic rituals have occurred there," Cooke said.
Students, who have been blamed for the creation of the myths, are a big factor to why the rumors have continued.
In 1997, Heitz wrote of supposed appearances of the devil, close encounters and KU student rumors. However, she also points out that an old road, Devil's Lane, existed in Stull as early as 1905, adding to the long list of strange coincidences.
Some of the rumors have been captured in the book "Haunted Kansas" by Lisa Hefner Heitz. Watkins Library has a copy, and it has been part of Halloween displays in area bookstores.
The book also tells that the town received national publicity when it was featured in an Urge Overkill song, Stull (Part One), in 1992, and has also been included in issues of "Haunted Places; The National Directory and Ghost Trackers Newsletter."
Although knowledge of the spooky town
has been spread across the country, many KU students have never heard of it, especially those from out of state, such as Bentonville, Ark, freshman Christina Murphy.
"I think every town has their own little superstition of some kind, so it didn't strike me in any way," she said. "Everywhere you go you're going to find something like that. It's kind of fun to goo around with, but I don't believe in any of that stuff."
However, others have grown up hearing of and wondering about the stories.
McGrath, a graduate of Topeka West High School, said he heard about the church and hauntings during high school, when visiting Stull was the thing to do.
And apparently KU students have made it an activity as well.
"I remember a girlfriend of mine went there and she said there were a lot of people there partying," Stull said.
Vandalism, noise, trespassing and destruction of headstones in the cemetery have caused problems for
the small community. A chain-link fence with "no trespassing" signs posted on it has enclosed Emmanuel Hill.
"It was put up for security purposes," said Kenny Massey, under sheriff for the Douglas County Sheriff's Department.
Although the fence has not been enough to keep people out, those who are caught risking their safety to see some supernatural may get a scary penalty instead.
Massey said. "We put them in jail and then it's up to the court."
"Anybody that's caught there is arrested for criminal trespassing,"
He said that although it is patrolled daily, deputies carefully watch the area during Halloween.
However, the possible repercussions do not always sway the curious. McGrath, who has never been there himself, said he may visit Stull sometime.
"I doubt anything would happen," he said. "It's probably all just rumors—I think."
Haunting hot spots in the area
legends of ghosts and hauntings are fairly common in Lawrence and the surrounding areas. Apparitions, both friendly and frightening, have been rumored for years.
According to the 1997 book "Haunted Kansas" by Lisa Hefner Heitz, the following are some of the Lawrence area's tales and rumors of the supernatural.

hanged on the third story of the house. Her cremated remains were stored behind a plaque in a fireplace.
The fraternity house belonged to then-Kansas Gov. Walter Stubbs. It was believed that Virginia may have been his ward, and that Stubbs or his wife were somehow involved with her death.
The details of her death have never been discovered.
Virginia is rumored to have made occasional appearances in the house, or at least make some noise with her footsteps

"A few years ago at our house, some people were studying in the music room, and a wood paneling piece right in front of where her ashes are fell off the wall. Everyone says, 'Oh, it's Virginia.' It's happened a couple of times." Henderson said.

Volleyball challenges Oklahoma for victory
Team must take all games within conference seriously
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
Halfway through the conference season, the 3-7 Kansas volleyball team needs more wins.
Coach Ray Bechard said that the match against Oklahoma at 7:30 tonight in Allen Fieldhouse would be huge.
As the Jayhawks, 13-9 overall, 3-7 in the conference, try to continue their climb in the Big 12 Conference, Bechard said they couldn't afford to
take any team lightly.
After becoming only the third team this season to take a game from 3 Nebraska, setter Laura Rohde said the Jayhawks played the best they had all season.
VOLLEYBALL
Although Bechard said that he was proud
of their effort, he said the Jayhawks weren't satisfied.
"For us, it is an opportunity to make some headway in the conference, so we can either settle, become complacent — which I know we won't — or we can keep pushing forward," he said.
Although the 7-15 Oklahoma Sooners have struggled this season, Bechard said that they had improved lately. In a match against No. 13 Colorado, the Sooners extended the match to four games, proving they could be a Big 12 threat.
"They played well last weekend against Colorado," Beachard said. "And they will be hungry for a conference road win, so we certainly aren't overlooking them."
Oklahoma, which was picked to finish eighth in the Big 12, has fallen to eleventh as of this week.
The Sooners, 1-9 in the conference, have won only one conference match this year, defeating Missouri three games to two on Oct. 16.
Four Jayhawks reached double figures in kills in the Kansas victory.
The Jayhawks opened conference competition against the Sooners last month. Although Oklahoma managed to win the third game in that contest 15-9, they lost 15-7, 15-8, and 15-7.
Outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht led the Jayhawks with 16. Middle blocker Anee Kreimer posted 14; right-side hitter Nancy Bell contributed 13, and middle blocker Amanda Reves chipped in 10.
Rohde said the Jayhawks could prove something with wins against Oklahoma tonight and Kansas State Friday.
"We know we have the potential and the talent," Rohde said. "We just need to execute. We did a good job defensively against Nebraska, so we know how we can play."
Revez continues her stellar season, finding her way into the record books in more than one category. Reves ranks third in career block assists and sixth in career block solos.
She leads the team in kills (259),kills per game (3.65),hitting percentage .331) block solos (28) and block assists (81).

Big 12 honors running back
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansas sportswriter
Kansas sophomore running back David Winbush was recognized this week by both the Big 12 and USA Today as offensive player of the week for his record-setting performance Saturday night.
Winbush, who led the 3-5 Jayhawks to a 33-17 upset victory against Colorado, surpassed nearly every personal record he set last season and in all one game.
Last season, he had 338 yards and two touchdowns on 69 carries.
Saturday, Winbush rushed for 268 yards and three touchdowns on 29 carries.
Quite a career night for a running back who didn't have
his first 100-yard game of the season until the Jayhawks' game against Colorado.
"I really didn't think about having a break-out game," he said. "I really had not done well since the Illinois State game. I knew I had to make it through arm tackles if I were to do good tonight."
He did just that and also tied his longest run last season at 65 yards when he rushed for his third touchdown during the middle of the fourth quarter.

Winbush recognized as player of the week
DALLAS — Kansas running back David Winbush, who carried for a career-high 268 yards in the Jayhawks' victory against Colorado, was named Monday as the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week.
See WINBUSH on page 2B
Texas A&M punter Shane Lechier won the league's special teams honors. The high school quarterback and emergency backup for the Aggies threw an 8-yard touchdown pass on a fake field goal. The pass to tight end Daniel Campbell ended up being the deciding score in the Aggies' 17-10 victory against Texas Tech.
Another Kansas player, linebacker Steve Bratten,
won defensive player honors for his performance
against Colorado. Bratten had 12 tackles and
caused a fumble that resulted in a touchdown.
Lechler, the nation's No. 6 punter with a 45.2 average on 49 boots, kept the Aggies in solid field position throughout the afternoon while averaging 42.3 vards on six punts.
Winbush, a sophomore, had the fourth-highest single game rushing total in school history. He also caught a pass for 23 yards and had a 21-yard kickoff return. His scoring runs covered eight, 38 and 65 yards.

Political ad exploitation of K-State quarterback
An interesting thing has happened in Manhattan. A local political candidate ran an advertisement in Sunday's Manhattan Mercury showing him shaking hands with Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop.
The advertisement ignited a few sparks.
Peterson, forgetting his ethics, ran the picture in an advertisement touting his reelection. Problem was, he never asked Bishop if he could use the image.
Jeff Peterson, incumbent candidate for the 66th district seat in the Kansas House of Representatives, had his picture taken with Bishop at the football team's media day.
The ad implied Bishop endorsed Peterson, which was not the case.
In Manhattan, Bishop is a celebrity. Peterson ran the ad knowing that using the picture would give him recognition.
I
While running the picture was not illegal, it was certainly unethical and improper. Peterson took advantage of Bishop, who had merely taken time to shake the politician's hand.
Peterson said the ad was meant to be pro-Kansas State and not meant to imply Bishop supported him. That was backpedaling by a politician trying to save face. Peterson knew what he was doing.

There is more to the story.
Athletic departments are often accused, rightly, of exploiting athletes. But here, it was a fan who did the exploiting.
Under NCAA rules, athletes are not allowed to appear in advertisements and certain endorsements. When the ad hit the stands, there was worry it would hurt Bishop because it could be an NCAA violation. There also concern that this episode would affect the investigation under way concerning running back Frank Murphy, who received money from a booster. The Athletic Department did not need another football problem.
The Kansas State Collegian, the campus newspaper, ran a story stating the ad was an NCAA violation, quoting Kent Brown, Kansas State Sports Information Director. But Brown and the Collegian were wrong.
The NCAA allows athletes to endorse political candidates if they choose. It is one of the exceptions to the rule. In Tuesday's Collegian, an editorial ran apologizing for the mistaken information.
But the story goes even deeper.
in 1996, Peterson exploited another Kansas State athlete. In a political ad, he used a picture of himself with then player Chris Canty, an All-American football player now in the NFL.
Peterson said no one told him in 1996 not to run the Canty ad so he saw nothing wrong doing the same with Bishop. His position is that the ad broke no rules and he did not mean to hurt Kansas State.
Peterson will no longer run the ads, but the damage is done.
The incident has hurt his campaign and shown Peterson still does not get it.
Also in Tuesday's Collegian, Peterson wrote an apology to readers, Kansas State University students and officials and the athletic department. But he did not apologize to Bishop.
rough if all, Peterson does not seem to realize he exelolized an athlete.
Maybe the voters will show Peterson that they are tired of athletes being taken advantage of.
Shame on some of the Crimson Girls.
During Saturday's homecoming game, alongside the alumni band that took the field, was a former Kansas baton twirler.
The alumna went on the field and proudly displayed her twirling, which many years ago she did as a student.
It was nice to see that school spirit still exists, even after graduation.
(
However, a group of Crimson Girls took it upon themselves to openly point and laugh at the woman. Many people noticed the Crimson Girls mocking the alumna. It was disgraceful.
The Crimson Girls are a proud organization that have represented the University in many positive ways. Only a few of them were being rude. But people noticed, and when a few select girls decided to act so rudely, it reflected on the entire group. They needed to show more respect.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 28).
Love is your motivation this year, and your secret weapon. Although you are a person of few words, you will make a great impact with them in October. You could undergo a financial transformation in December, so take care.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Somebody just refuses to see things your way. You tend to think that anyone who doesn't go along with your ideas is grossly in error. Unfortunately, this other person shares the same opinion of your behavior. You may just have to agree to disagree and let it go.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
This could be an awkward day for everyone. You feel strongly about your position, and so does everyone else. This is a great day to practice showing patience.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You would like to visit distant shores, but you are stuck taking care of business. There may be a way to do bath, if you can figure it out. You may have to get more education, but the opportunity should become apparent. In fact, someone may offer to teach you what you need to learn.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Love and money clash today. If you could be two places at once, that would solve the problem, but is not likely to happen. Why don't you get someone to help with part of your chores so you can spend more time with a loved one?
Leo (Julv 23-Aua. 22): Todav is a 5.
Lebo July 23-Aug. 22; Today is 8:5.
There are lots of very stubborn people and they won't budge. The good news is that you seem to be profiting by this stalemate. You have something everyone wants. If you can figure out the answer to this riddle, you could make quite a lot of money.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You are in the mood to learn new skills, and practice is part of the program. Your assignment is difficult, but so what? Consult the manual, or an expert. Either way, you will figure out how to get this job done, and that is why others have given it to you.
Libra (Sept, 23-Oct, 23): Today is a 6.
You would like to spend more money than you have today, and that is not a good idea. Your sweetheart is more interested in your personality and the conversations you share. Even if you have the money to buy gifts, save it for something you two can do together.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
**Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21):** Today is a 5.
The irritation will be finished by tonight, since you will have made your decision by then. Although you want to settle down, you are actually being propelled forward. It is like you're finding solid bottom and kicking off from it.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is a 6.
You've got an aptitude for learning technical material right now, so use it. The more you learn, the more freedom you will achieve. There is something in the way, such as bureaucratic regulations. If you don't qualify for a program, keep applying until you find one you fit.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
If you don't have your all debts paid off, it is not for lack of trying. You are making a concerted effort, which is wise. Do not waste money on an outing with friends. You can have a great time without spending much at all.
C
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You are still facing tough opposition and may be outnumbered. You may also be in conflict with someone who out ranks you. It doesn't have to stifle your creativity, however. You're still sharp as a tack and an idea you come up with now could make a lasting impression.
II
LION
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
A couple of strong personalities are squaring off with each other. You're not in the middle of this fight, so stay out of it. They probably wouldn't listen to you anyway. You would be wise to keep your head down and your nose to the grindstone. That is a good way to keep out of the line of fire.

Free State coach fired after various infractions
LAWRENCE — The cross country coach at Free State High School lost his coaching job Monday for allowing the team to travel in private cars that were driven too fast by students to a meet in Olathe...

team were involved.
The school board approved a resolution terminating Brethours' coaching contracts because of a pattern of decision making which places students at risk of harm.
The resolution said that on Sept. 12 Brethreet showed poor judgment with regard to the safety of students by having the cross country team travel to a meet in private vehicles operated by other students that were driven at excessive speeds.
On Sept. 28, Brethour directed the team to run along a dangerous section of U.S. 40, the board resolution said.
Brethour was teaching yesterday morning and could not be reached for comment. A message left on his school voice mail this morning was not immediately returned.
The hazards of students driving to sporting events became an issue in Kansas earlier this year after an accident killed three 15-year-old members of the Blue Valley High School softball team. One of the girls had been driving her teammates to an April event a few miles from their school.
The Blue Valley School District now requires all students under age 16 to either use district transportation to activities or to ride with an adult.

Boy wins opportunity to meet McGwire
NEW YORK — Shawn Maykuth's 11th birthday proved a lucky one.
The suburban Chicago youth's name was chosen at random from more than 12,000 entries from youngsters in the United States and Canada in the Big League Blast Home Run Sweepstakes.
Maykuth and his family will get a trip to the Players Choice Awards at Disney's Wide World of Sports in Orlando, Fla., which will be televised Friday night on ESPN.
The highlight of the trip, in Meykuth's view, will be a chance to meet Mark McGwire.

Winbush's big game earns him accolades
was absolutely sensational."
Continued from page 1B
With his performance, Winbush became the 34th Kansas player to rush for more than 1,000 yards and now has the fourth highest rushing game in Kansas history.
Much of Winbush's success came because of teammate Mitch Bowles' injury.
Bowles, who splits time with Winbush at the running back position, injured his hamstring during the first quarter of the Nebraska game and was unable to suit up for Colorado.
And Winbush, who never has held the position outright since he began at Kansas, saw this as a chance to showcase his talents and provide big plays in the absence of his teammate.
"I just knew I had to step it up with Mitch being out," he said. "It is no different than any other game. I try to go hard during every game."
But Winbush gives most of the credit to his offensive line, and so does coach Terry Allen.
"David did a great job, but we won the football game on the offensive line," Allen said. "They did a terrific job. We knew if we were going to win this game that we had to be that effective running the football."
"It's a rival game," Winbush said. "Anything can happen."
Now he just has to do it again this weekend against Kansas State.

KU athletics celebrates early running decades
Distance runners' past remembered
The Kansas tradition of producing legendary distance runners began in the 1930s with Glenn Cunningham. It gained notoriety in the 1960s with Olympians Billy Mills and Jim Ryun.
By Cal Butcher Special to the Kansan
But for nationwide dominance, it was the 1950s that supplied the University of Kansas with its greatest runners. Kansas won every cross country conference championship in the 1950s. Herb Semper, Waste Santee and Al Frame won individual NCAA National Championships, and the Jayhawks were the 1953 NCAA team champions.
The decade began with Semper capturing the 1950 and 1951 NCAA titles. Santee won it in 1953, and Frame followed a year later with the 1954 title. All three were two-time winners of the Big Seven Conference Cross Country Championship.
Semper's back-to-back titles set the standard for his Kansas teammates. His second victory came at the expense of then-freshman Santee, who placed a disappointing 36th.
"I told Herbie he was going to have to get used to finishing second," joked the up-and-coming Santee. "And then he went out and won the national championship my sophomore year."
Semper, who lost the sight of one eye in a childhood BB gun accident, graduated in 1952 as the conference record holder in all
In his final national meet as a collegian, he placed third with a career best 9:05.0. He left KU holding 11 two-mile records in Big Seven competition.
three two-mile races. His fall standard was 9:14.2, his indoor mark was 9:07.0, and his outdoor best was 9:21.0.
Al Frame was known for his endurance and determination. His unusual style of running with bowed head and low knee action limited his speed, but did not hinder his ability to recover from a race.
He was often able to win both the mile and the two-mile in the same meet. In the 1955 outdoor conference meet, he ran 4:16.5 and won the mile, then came back with a 9:27.9 and captured the two-mile.
Frame, who grew up in Wichita, was also a great scholar at Kansas.
His ability to double also included the 1956 indoor 880 and mile. He was the first man in conference history to win indoor titles in the 880, mile and two-mile. Overall, he won seven conference championships in both track and cross country.
"He ran for Coach (Bill) Easton," said former Kansas coach Bob Timmons, "but he was also a Summerfield scholar and earned a Phi Beta Kappa. Not many people know that about our runners."
Timmons is honoring Frame, Santee, Semper, Glenn Cunningham, John Lawson, Billy Mills and Jim Ryun. He has installed seven life-sized silhouettes around the course at Rim Rock Farm for the 1998 NCAA Division I and II Cross Country Championships.
In addition to the silhouettes, Timmons had already designated the "Herb Semper Four Corners" and the "Al Frame Incline" as permanent fixtures on the Rim Rock

Farm Course.
"Frame and Semper are the last two silhouettes to go in," said Timmons, "and they'll be on the lower course. They should all be ready for the national meet."
Semper and Frame are members of the University of Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame. Both have indicated that they will be returning to Lawrence to see the silhouettes and attend the KU Track & Cross Country Reunion to be held in conjunction with the NCAA National Championships next month.

Commentary
U.S. soccer grows in popularity
I must have been taking some drugs of Maradona quality last week when I said that I'd be writing about men's soccer at KU today. This weekend was MLS Cup, and I was in Los Angeles for the game and surrounding festivities.
The game itself, on Sunday, was a treat. The two-time defending champs, DC United, went down in a blazing Chicago Fire 2.0. The game's Most Valuable Player, Chicago midfielder Peter Nowak, set up both goals in the first half. The first goal came off a sophisticated series of passes orchestrated by Nowak at the top of the box, and the second, off an individual run and shot by Nowak that deflected off Blue Springs (Mo.) High graduate, ex-Wizard and current Chicago midfielder Diego Gutierrez and past United goalkeeper Tom Presthus. Chicago's strong defense was able to hold up the rest of the way.
The game was notable for a few things. First, 52,000 people showed up in a neutral city half a continent away from the nearest competing team. Major League Soccer Cup is clearly becoming a big event on the American sporting scene.
Second, it was a very mature soccer game, with patterns and rhythms familiar to followers of international soccer. Far too often, Major League Soccer games are jumbled and anarchic, and some would say that is part of its charm. However, this was a highly controlled game played by two cohesive, skillful and well-coached
teams.
Third, the Chicago Fire became the first expansion team in any U.S. major sport to win the championship in its first season. In any other sport this would be unthinkable, but in Major League Soccer, it happened. Allow me to explain how, and why, Chicago pulled it off.
In Major League Soccer, each team is allocated five players of higher salary and pedigree, usually signed from outside the United States (not necessarily foreign; many of these players are Americans playing in Europe or Mexico). These players form the backbone of most teams, and the rest of the positions are filled in by players picked up in the college draft, through other signings, etc.
In the expansion draft last winter, the first for Major League Soccer. Chicago picked up several of its key players, including midfielder
DONALD BROWN
Sam
Pierron
spierron@ukans.edu
Chris Armas, who was selected to Major League Soccer's Best Eleven for this season, and MLS Goalkeeper of the Year Zach Thornton (also selected to the Best Eleven).
Chicago built around experienced Eastern European players, a new strategy in a league that has signed mostly Latin Americans. At the head of their class was Polish midfielder Peter Nowak of TSV Munchen 1860 (Germany), only two years removed from having been selected as the top playmaker in the German Bundesliga.
It was later discovered that if Nowak hadn't signed with Major League Soccer,
several English Premier League teams were about to pounce on his inexpensive transfer fee. To complete their Eastern Bloc, the Fire acquired fellow Poles Roman Kosecki and Jerzy Brozny (both forwards), as well as Czech sweeper Lubos Kublk, who also made the MLS Best Eleven.
The league, in its infinite wisdom, basically forced Mexican goalkeeper Jorge Campos down Chicago's throat. Trouble is, as Bradley recognized, Campos can be more trouble than he is worth.
While he is certainly spectacular, he is given to making bad mistakes, and his lack of height can cause serious problems. What is worse is that because of a unique contractual status, he is never available until the Mexican League season ends in late April/early May. Further, his salary is high, and with the tight Major League Soccer salary cap, that is a major negative.
Bradley was proven right in the long run; Campos, when he played, was ineffective, and Thornton earned the starting job and then Goalkeeper of the Year. Surely, Campos will be on his way to San Jose or some other Major League Soccer city next year.
It was a farewell performance for Bruce Arena, who was named U.S. National Team coach on Tuesday. Arena has built the best team in the United States since the Cosmos of the late 1970s, but I have severe doubts about the ability of his successor to maintain United's tradition of excellence. United will have to dump several players because of salary cap problems, and Eddle Pope could head to Europe at any time. Either way, it is been a great run for United. And, all in all, it was a showcase weekend for Major League Soccer.

The Associated Press
High school rankings upset after big losses
TOPEKA — Olathe North, Holton and Conway Springs pulled the big surprises last week that created major changes in this week's Associated Press consensus high school football rankings.
As the regular season heads toward its conclusion — with final district games this week deciding who enters the playoffs — five teams remain unanimous No. 1 choices in their classes: Wichita Southeast in Class 6A, Liberal in 5A, Topeka Hayden in 4A, Smith Center in 3A and Little River in Eight-Man Division L.
Olatea North stunned Olathe South last week, 41-14, knocking South out of the No. 3 spot in the 6A rankings and elevating itself into the No. 5 position. Wichita Southeast kept the top rating with a 53-19 win against Wichita East, and Wichita Northwest remained No. 2 by beating Wichita North, 54-13.
Garden City's Buffaloes feasted on Maize, 61-0,
to move up to No. 3 in 6A.
Conway Springs upended Medicine Lodge, 23-7, to fill the run-up spot in 3A, which Conway formerly held. Smith Center still is No.1 in 3A after bending Norton, 44-0.
There were no changes in Class 5A, where Liberal remained a unanimous No.1 after a 32-22 victory against Wichita Carroll, and Salina Central held second with a 17-10 triumph against Bukhr.
Holton upset Sabetha, the former secondplace team, 21-6, and moved into the Top 5 in Class A4. Topeka Hayden remained a unanimous No. 1 in 4A with a 53-10 rout of Council Grove. Pratt moved up to No. 2 with a 30-13 win against Ulvesss.
AP consensus rankings are an average of ratings by the Hutchinson News, Salina Journal, Topea Capital Journal and Wichita Eagle.

Lingerie store covers local needs
Colorado resident saw gap in market
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Downtown Lawrence offers a plethora of clothing options for the fashion-conscious, but the selection of lingerie to go under all that clothing is a different story.
Mkcooking Bakers at Melodie Christal, owner of the new Savannah lingerie store at 735 Massachusetts $t., said she noticed the lack of lingerie in Lawrence when she visited last Christmas and decided to open a store. Savannah opened September 15.
Christal, who moved to Kansas from Boulder, Colo., said that she used to work in higher education administration but that she wanted to try something different.
"I've always loved lingerie, and it's fun to be around pretty things all day," she said.
Savannah is the only full-price store solely devoted to the sale of intimate apparel and accessories. Until now, a store called Undercover fit that description, but Christal said it closed three or four years ago.
Savannah sells sleepwear, some outerwear, bras, panties, thongs, slips, cards, lotions and bath products, and books.
"I want to make it easy so someone can get everything they need for a romantic weekend or present." Christal said.
Christal said she offered a range of brands and prices. She said she preferred natural fibers and catered to a varied audience.
Susan Grace
"College students make up a large part of the population, but I'm also interested in providing lingerie for the woman in her 30s or 40s who wants something comfortable," she said.
Kristi Thompson, Topea junior, said she usually went to Victoria's Secret in Kansas City. She said that Lawrence
department stores had some good products but that their selections were limited.
However, the previous underwear selection satisfied many city residents and students.

KANSAN
Marilyn Ousdahl, intimate apparel buyer for Weavers, said that in the past
four to five years, the lingerie department had expanded enough to gain its own floor.
Iris Borem, Tulsa, Okla., junior, said that she liked stores like Victoria's Secret, but she thought they were too expensive. She said she usually bought her underwear at department stores in town.
Exhibit to capture pioneer's presence
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Bert Nash, psychology professor at the University of Kansas from 1930 to 1947, would have celebrated his 100th birthday today.
He died at the age of 48, but not before making his mark in Kansas history.
To celebrate the anniversary of Nash's birthday, an exhibit will be open to the public in about two weeks at the Watkins Community Museum of History.
The exhibit chronicles his work as a pioneer in providing psychological services for neglected and delinquent children. His work had a statewide influence and an influence on KU students.
"When Nash taught at KU, it was a smaller institution with about 4,000 students," said Steve Jansen, director of the Watkins Community Museum of History. "His influence at KU was his accessibility and willingness to communicate educational and psychological issues to KIU students."
In addition to teaching, Nash became director of KU's Psycho-Educational Clinic in 1930.
He was known for his work with children who didn't fit into society.
"Nash was a pioneer in Kansas in developing what we would call the statewide response to children's behavior.
Nash is considered a pioneer in the study of delinquent kids.
toral problems," Jansen said. He said that in the 30s there was not a
local infrastructure to handle juvenile offenders so the state was seen as the provider.
In a 1946 article from The Topeka Daily Capital, now the Topeka Capital-Journal, Nash said these behavioral problems were preventable and curable if children received help early in life.
Patricia Roach, community development director for the Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center, said Nash was a visionary and that his thoughts during his career were contemporary for their time.
"He was interested in kids from birth to maturity," she said. "He believed in nurturing children so they would grow into productive citizens."
In one of many of the speeches Nash gave during the 1930s and 1940s, he was quoted as saying, "The rearing of children is a major task of parents and communities. The community becomes a large family and weakness within it affects the whole structure."
Nash was born in 1898 in Topeka. On Feb. 17, 1947, while giving a talk on juvenile delinquency to the Lion's Club, he collapsed and then died the next morning.
The Bert Nash Community Mental Health Center was established in his memory in 1950.
Roach said the Center carries out Nash's vision to have a community committed to taking care of its children. It takes a holistic approach by involving the school district, Lawrence Memorial Hospital and the police department to reach out to children and their parents.
Commentary
Manson show caters to all types, provides new icon
By T. R. Miller Kansan music critic
There is a reason why Marilyn Manson has become the most talked-about character in modern music.
The masses are accustomed to angry sounds of Trent Reznor, the androgyny of David Bowie and the violent, theatrical effects of Ozzy Osbourne. Rock 'n' roll, a once rebellious statement of youth, has been looking for a new rock star. Clad in a red-squashed body suit and a red-streaked bob haircut, Manson illustrated the new rock god of pop culture desperately sought.
Manson is not merely a freak-show phenomenon.
Manson fans represent a counter-culture indeed, but I was happy to see I was not the most conventionally-tressed person at the show. It just goes to show that
freak-show phenomenon. The opening band, 12 Rounds, provided a fitting appetizer for the main course. Lead singer Claudia Sarne proviled around the stage like a witch's cat. The band has a gothic appeal, emphasizing

droning bass lines that play background to Sarne's earle, cackling voice.
Marilyn Manson opened with Great Big White World from its latest release, Mechanical Animals, and the floor crowd immediately formed a mosh pit in honor of the master of debauchery. In between songs, the lead singer took time to spit his Evan onto his captivated crowd, while bassist Twiggy Ramirez and guitarist M.W. Gacy beat their instruments to create a sound frenzy.
Manson made a special effort to incorporate the crowd. The band played several songs from Antichrist Superstar and Portrait of an American Family. The fans joined in on the chorus in a violent rendition of Cake and Sodomy. Manson's final costume was a bloody-red dress with an illegal hemline, which he strategically hiked up to reveal a pair of red thong underwear.
The 90-minute concert ended with Manson preaching singing Antichrist Superstar ato a Führer-like podium. The artist's brainwashing stage presence is an anti-culture movement, fascinating to watch and frighteningly persuasive.

Campus gets lights punched out
Blown transformer causes power loss, triggers fire alarms
By Steph Brewer and Keith Burner
Kansas staff writers
Lights were flickering across the University of Kansas campus yesterday afternoon, but it had nothing to do with Halloween.
A blown transformer at 19th and Louisiana streets caused about half of the buildings on campus to lose power, said Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations. Buildings lost power about 1:30 p.m.
(USPS 650-640)
Porter said he did not know what specifically caused the problem. Representatives from Kansas Power and Light were not available for comment. Douglas County Fire Battalion Chief
Douglas County Fire Battalion Chief Bill Stark blamed nature.
"I don't know if it was lightning or the wind or some other part of the storm." he said.
The outage set off fire alarms in some of the buildings, sending fire trucks screaming across campus.
Some buildings only experienced loss of power, while other buildings such as Dyche Hall, where the Natural History Museum is located, had more serious problems.
At Dyche, Haworth and Twente
halls, elevator motors malfunctioned and sent smoke wafting through the buildings, causing firefighters to revisit the halls.
"A motor overheated, causing smoke in the ventilation ducts," said Jordan Yochim, assistant director of the Natural History Museum. "That smoke caused the detectors to go off a second time."
In Dyche Hall, a construction worker was trapped in an elevator 1 1/2 feet below the fourth floor but exited through the escape hatch at the top.
The building only lost power in the south wing, not the north wing, where the preserved animal specimens are kept. Yochim said.
Enrollment took longer than usual for some students who were waiting in line during the outage. Jan Gentry, an enrollment aide, said that the computers didn't crash but that the printers lost power.
"That was the big thing," she said. "We couldn't print anyone's schedule."
PAL HISTORY MUSEUM
1891
Gentry said that, despite the delay,
she did not think any students left.
Sunny Alexander, Kansas City, Mo., senior, and Eve Lane, St. Louis sophomore, were in Watson Library when the power went out.
"It wasn't completely dark. Not everything shut off" Alexander said.
Lane and Alexander said that when they left the library, lights were on but computers were still down. Later in the afternoon, all power was restored.

Student body vice president's job questioned
Letter of complaint signed by six senators.
Kansan staff writer
Bv Seth Jones
A mysteriously delivered letter to Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, turned out to be a serious letter from six members of Student Executive Committee questioning his performance as vice president.
The letter was hand-delivered to Kaiser by a person he did not know during last night's Student Senate committee meeting. StudEx is a 13-member standing committee that approves the agenda for each Senate meeting.
The letter stated Kaiser had disregarded what StudEx said, claimed he had not been serving his office hours and raised general leadership questions.
Partha Mazundar, graduate senator; Seth
Hoffman, Nunemaker senator; Amy Cummins, graduate senator; Matt Dunbar, holdover senator; Jason Thompson, senior senator; and Luke Pfannenstiel, all-scholarship-hall senator, all signed the letter.
Dunbar said the purpose of the letter was to alert Kaiser of the complaints.
10
Kaiser: Faces questions about his job performance.
"We knew that people had problems with the
way he was performing." he said. "We wanted this to remain private. It wasn't intended to be news. We just wanted to be sure he knew the problems existed."
Kaiser said that he was only going to address the letter once and that it would be at next Wednesday's StudEx meeting.
"I'm not really worried about it," he said.
"I'm going to make sure that everyone who signed the letter is present before I comment on it. That way we can talk about it once with everybody face to face."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said he was not pleased with the manner the letter was presented to Kaiser.
"The letter was given to him anonymously," he said. "Some guy he didn't even know walked up to him and said 'You Scott Kaiser?' and then he handed him the letter."
Yoder said that the complaints stated in the letter were exaggerated, revealing the writer's true intentions.
"This was nothing more than leftover coalition politics from last spring," he said. "Starting a meeting 10 minutes late isn't a high crime. What these people are trying to do is smear his vice presidency, and it's tarmpished their own image in the process."
Deidre Backs, off-campus senator, said she had talked to Kaiser about the problems.
"he rolls his eyes when certain people are speaking, he's extremely biased, he disrespectful to other senators," she said. "It's sad it's come to this, but people have asked him to change many times, and he hasn't changed at all."
Maria Abatjoglou, college of liberal arts and science senator, said that Kaiser's work ethic made her think he was doing a good job.
"We've been working together a lot on campus recreation," she said. "We've spent many hours working together, and I know he has spent many hours working on his own."
Mazumdar stressed that the StudEx members who signed the letter just wanted to talk about the problems.
"This is unfortunate, but it's something we had to do," he said. "We just want to talk. That is stated very clear in the letter."

"A new group on campus would add a new flavor to the entire greek community," said Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs. "When you don't have anybody new for awhile, people get set in their ways. Hopefully, this would
open up fresh ideas."

The Web site was created as a compromise between Scott Sullivan, last
Korb Maxwell, College of Liberal Arts senator, said the Web page was considered an acceptable compromise, but Sullivan didn't give faculty or students much time to consider the original plan. Maxwell said that Sullivan upset faculty by trying to force a decision too quickly.

year's student body president, and faculty. Sullivan wanted to publish faculty evaluations, as well as create a book with information about each course offered in the timetable that students would have access to. Faculty senators rejected the idea.
Maxwell said class information could have been better organized or presented if the parties involved would have had more time to consider the proposal.
"The plan needed to be built through a consensus and moved through the student and faculty senate," he said. "Even if you have a perfect plan, the faculty flip out if they don't have time to think about it. This is a bureaucracy and things have to move slowly."
"The compromise struck was this. We are happy to see it, but we still think it could have been better," he said.
Richard Hardin, English professor, said students had not responded to the information he had posted but thought the Web site would be more widely used if more students were aware that it existed.
How departments use the Web site will vary. Hardin said that he hoped the English department would eventually use it to save materials handed out in class.
"I think it will take a while for students to use it," Hardin said. "This saves on paper, and maybe in the future our department will do all the class syllabuses on the Internet."
He said Student Senate had not come up with any specific improvements, because no senators wanted to tackle the issue.
Donna Tucker, assistant professor of physics and astronomy, said the University could increase student awareness by publicizing the Web site on University documents.
They could possibly include information about the Web site when students get their permits to enroll," she said. "The Web site address could be put in places where students already look for information."
Jessica Buntain, Topeka freshman, said she found the site during an Internet search for general information about colleges last year.
She said she found the class information after she accessed the University Web site.
"It helped me in my college search," she said. "I don't have a computer now, but I would use the site if I did."

Masturbators reported on and near campus
Police are still looking for two men who were seen masturbating on and near campus Tuesday.
One of the men was sighted in Watson Library, the other in front of the Pi Beta Phi sorority house.
Lawrence police were called to the sorority house, 1612 W. 15th St., about 3 p.m. by members who had seen a man masturbating in their front vard.
"The suspect was masturbating with one hand and waving to the girls with the other," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police are investigating the incident as lewd and lascivious behavior, and they have no suspects.
Police are looking for a white man between 25 and 30 years old, last seen wearing blue jeans and a red and brown plaid shirt.
The second man was spotted at about 11:30 p.m. on the second floor lobby of the library, masturbating under a stairwell, said Sgt. Troy Mallen, of the KU Public Safety Office.
The office has no suspects.
Neither the Lawrence police nor the KU Public Safety Office knew if the two incidents were related.
Three suspects named in Haskell burglary
Police have three suspects in a month old burglary that cost Haskell Indian Nations University more than $11,000.
Lawrence police said they suspect three Haskell University students, ages 18, 19 and 21, of breaking into Hiawatha Hall and stealing several pieces of high-tech electronic equipment between Aug. 15 and Sept. 10.
One of the suspects admitted to the burglary when he was being interviewed by police for attempting to obtain money fraudulently from the Douglas County Bank.
The suspect told police that he and the other two students had entered the building with flashlights and had taken a microphone, a television, a CD player and other equipment, Lawrence police said.
The men have not been arrested, but the case has been forwarded to the Douglas County District Attorney's Office. Police expect the office to issue
formal charges in the incident soon. Police have been investigating the incident as a felony theft and burglary.
Escaped prisoners found close to Clinton Lake
Local law enforcement officers arrested three men Tuesday night near Clinton Lake in connection with a recent escape from a western Kansas prison.
A 21-year-old Lawrence man and a 20-year-old Cherryvale man had escaped from Stockton minimum security prison Friday and department of correction officers tracked the men to the Lawrence man's brother's house, said Douglas County Undersheriff Kenny Massey.
The corrections officers, with help from the Douglas County Sheriff's Office, the Lawrence Police Department and the Highway Patrol, went to the brother's house at 3 p.m. to arrest the men, but missed them by about 15 minutes. Massey said.
The officers then learned that the men, along with the brother's 4-year-old son, had gone jet skiing. The officers went to Clinton Lake and found the men.
Officers waited for the men to leave the lake, pulled the 4-year-old from the men's vehicle, and arrested them.
When police searched the car, they said they found a rifle, a handgun, 106 grams of crystal methamphetamines, and scales and plastic baggies.
The two escapees were taken to Lansing prison, and the Lawrence man was placed into the Douglas County jail for aiding a felon, possession of a methamphetamine with intent to sell, possession of drug paraphernalia and endangering a child, the sheriff's office reported.

23 killed in Caribbean when hurricane strikes
LA CEIBA, Honduras — Hurricane Mitsch paused in its whirl through the western Caribbean yesterday to punish Honduras with 120 mph winds, sweeping away bridges, flooding neighborhoods and killing at least 32 people.
Mitch was drifting west at only 2 mph over the Bay Islands, a Honduras tourist area popular with American scuba divers and beachcombers.
At its peak Tuesday, Mitch was classified as the fourth-stoughest Caribbean hurricane this century with 180 mph winds. By yesterday afternoon, the 350-mile-wide storm still packed a punch, but its sustained winds were down to 120 mph.
The rainfall — up to 25 inches in mountain areas — began to take a toll. More than 50 rivers had overrun their banks, and the government evacuated more than 45,000 people from low-lying
areas, said Col. Guiliorom Pinel, chief of the National Emergency Committee.
President Carlos Flores Facusse declared the Caribbean coast a disaster zone, and officials said 23 people had died in Honduras alone, including 14 on Guanaja.

"That doesn't mean, however, that the president can't demand that the government account for its actions in his same stem manner," Oleg Sysuyev was quoted as saying in the newspaper Segodnya.
Yeltsin, exhausted and with high blood pressure, relaxed yesterday at the rest home outside Moscow that he entered Tuesday, the day after doctors ordered him to cancel a one-day trip to Austria.
Yeltsin, 67, has played only a marginal role in dealing with the country's painful economic crisis.
He is expected to stay at the sanitarium until the end of the week and then will go on vacation for an unspecified period of time, Dmitry Yakushkin. Yeltsin's spokesman. He did not say where Yeltsin would spend his time off or elaborate on his condition.
Lightning bolt in Congo kills 11 soccer players
The lightning bolt killed all the players on the home team in the village of Bena Tshadi in the province of Eastern Kasai, the Congoese Press Agency said.
KINSHASA, Congo — Lightning killed 11 players on a Congolese soccer team and injured dozens on the sideline during a weekend game, the Congo news agency reported.
While Tuesday's news report could not be confirmed independently, the news agency said more than 30 people — most of them on the sidelines — were hurt, although none of the injuries was believed to be life-threatening.
Investigators blamed the lightning on witchcraft, because all the opposing players, from the nearby village of Basangana, escaped injury, the agency reported.

Fraternities vie for campus spot
Continued from page 1A
reviewed by the committee
A recommendation will be given to the Interfraternity Council's general assembly to vote for one chapter.
The two fraternities that gave presentations have different backgrounds but similar mottoes.
Simons said that at this time it was not possible for both fraternities to be invited to the University. The two fraternities that gave presentations have differed in how they handled their events.
Delta Sigma Phi, founded in 1899 in New York was at the University of Kansas in 1955 but closed in 1970.
"Our ultimate mission statement promotes three things to pride individuality; a healthy lifestyle, personal development and intellectual growth," he said.
Tom Decker, Delta Sigma Phi national president, said that the fraternity promoted brotherhood and unity, regardless of a person's race or religious beliefs.
Decker and other associates said the headquarters were prepared to do whatever it took to be competitive on campus. This includes an initial recruitment of 50 or more men and a suitable house.
Pi Kappa Phi was founded in South Carolina on Dec. 10, 1940. Although the fraternity has never been represented on the KU campus, it has numerous chapters throughout the Midwest.
Pi Kappa Phi representatives Jeremy Galvin, director of programs, and Thomas Atwood, director of chapter services, promoted the fraternity's dedication to community service.
The national fraternity is involved with Push America, a program that volunteers for people with disabilities. One service project involves chapter members cycling across America and stopping to volunteer on the way. Atwood said.
Both of the presenting fraternities have active chapters established in Kansas State University.
"Which ever way the decision goes, it's going to be great for the KU community and for the KU greek community," Huang said.

KU Senate sees more of Moore
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Don't be surprised if you see Dennis Moore, Democratic congressional candidate for the 3rd District, hanging out on campus.
Moore made his third campus visit in little more than a week when he spoke to Student Senate committee members at last night's meeting.
The candidate spoke and took questions for about 45 minutes. Students asked him questions about affirmative action, English as the official language and international trade.
Moore said he was visiting because, with KU students' help, he could push ahead in the polls of his opponent, the incumbent U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger.
"I'm trying to motivate students to understand the issues," he said. "The issues could have a lasting impact on students. Guns, social security, a quality education, all affect the student population."
Amy Cummins, graduate
senator asked Moore what he thought about the way teachers were treated in America.
"We treat our teachers very shoddy as a nation," he said. "Especially with all the horrendous things they have to do."
Moore went on to stress the importance of teachers in the nation, saying that every child deserved a quality education.
After the open forum with Moore ended, Senate moved into committee meetings.
Legal Services for Students representatives asked committees to move it from block allocation to restricted fees.
The bill was approved through both finance committee and University Affairs Committee.
Jo Hardesty, director of Legal Services for Students, said the move would allow Legal Services to plan more than two years in advance.
"Every time we go to block allocations, we have to justify our services from ground zero up," she said. "By being moved to student-activity fees, we wouldn't have to worry about not getting the same amount of funding every year."

Date rape film draws praise, few men

Date rape is an issue that concerns both men and women.
But several University of Kansas students who saw a film on date rape at the Lied Center last night were disappointed that few men attended.
Emily Price, Bethel, Conn., senior, said she liked the film and appreciated the message it conveyed but found it to be essentially repetitious.
"Women are always told to avoid rape, not get drunk and be careful of friends," she said. "We all know that. But it is the men who commit the crimes. Where are they?"
Brian Foster, Atlantic City. N.J., graduate student, also said he was disappointed that very few men were present for the screening, which was followed by a panel discussion.
"It's sad that there are not enough men here," he said. "This is an important issue. The fact that men are not supportive almost justifies the reason for women to be angry."
About 70 to 80 students were present for the film, A Reason to Believe.
The screening was organized by Student Union Activities and co-sponsored by Rape Victim-Survivor Service, Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and Delta Gamma sorority.
The film focused on the experience of a sorority woman, Charlotte, who was raped by her boyfriend's friend at a party.
Her attempts to get people to believe her were undermined by the support her perpetrator, Jim, received from both his fraternity and Charlotte's own
friends.
Eventually, a write-up in the college newspaper and aggressive attempts by the president of the campus women's rights group led to Jim's expulsion.
Teresa Schwab, sexual assault prevention and education program coordinator with the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center and panel participant, said she thought the film was an accurate portrayal of the Greek system but said that date rapes could happen anywhere.
"Date rape is highly underreported," she said. "Only one out of 100 cases are reported."
The two other panelists, Philip Hart, volunteer advocate with the Rape Victim-Survivor Service, and Barb Norris, chaplain with the Lawrence Memorial Hospital, said the film dealt with relevant issues.
Hart said that just like the film showed, rape victims often confronted credibility issues with people inquiring why the rape was not reported earlier.
Hollywood stars shed light on campaigns
Famed actors play role in Congressional race
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
The 3rd District race for Congress is heating up this week as Hollywood personalities show their support for the Kansas candidates.
Actor Charlton Heston will be in Overland Park this morning at a fund-raiser for Republican candidate Vince Snowbarger, and actor Robert Redford has endorsed Democratic candidate Dennis Moore this week.
Each of the actors are known for their political activism as well as their careers in Hollywood. Heston is the president of the traditionally conservative National Rifle Association, and Redford has long been known for his more liberal environmental activism.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said there was a chance
that the celebrity support could make a small difference in such a close race.

encouraging voters to support Moore. "He saw that the League of Conservation Voters gave Snowbarger a zero percent this year," Nevins said of Redford's motivation for the endorsement.
The league judges the environmental records of politicians.
Robert Redford endorsed 3rd Con. pressional District candidate Dennis Moore and is featured in a campaign radio advertisement.
Mark Nevins, a spokesman for Moore's campaign, said Redford was featured in a radio advertisement
Nevins said Redford liked Moore's support of clean air and clean water legislation.
"Hollywood celebrities are going to be very unfamiliar with 3rd District politics."
Kevin Yowell, spokesman for the Snowbarger campaign, said Redford's endorsement proved that Moore wasn't as moderate as he claimed to be.
He said the celebrities were more concerned with the overall make-up of Congress than with this Kansas district.
"Hollywood celebrities are going to be very unfamiliar with 3rd District politics." Woelk said.

He said the endorsement was an indication of how desperate the Moore campaign had become.
The private fund-raiser Heston will attend is for Snowbarger and Republican Senate candidate Sam Brownback, Yowell said. He said the campaigns hadn't designated a topic for Heston to speak about.
"He's a well-known celebrity not only for his work in art but also his work in politics — starting with the Civil Rights Movement," Yowell said. But Nevins said he hoped Snow-burger would renounce Heston's organization, the NRA, for their extremism.
"We have Robert Redford's endorsement, and we'll take the Sundance Kid over Moses any day," Nevins said.

Perspective
Producers free to make The Siege; audiences free to ignore message
I miss the days when people complained to the ticket booth if they didn't like a movie. Now, they file lawsuits and predict nothing short of Judgment Day if certain films are produced and released.
Last week, the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee roundly panned Denzel Washington's upcoming film, The Siege, claiming the thriller will spark harassment and hate crimes against people of Arab descent.
YOUNG KENNEDY
This came barely more than a week after the Louisiana Supreme Court ruled that a lawsuit could proceed against filmmaker Oliver Stone. The plaintiffs insist the producers of Stone's 1994 movie Natural Born Killers ought to be held liable for crimes committed by those who mimic the movie's violent scenes.
Jeremy Doherty
Guest Columns
Each of these incidents should raise the eyebrows of anyone who cares about an artist's right to free speech. Scrape away the politically-correct statements made by Washington's and Stone's detractors, and it becomes apparent that what they are demanding is good, old-fashioned censorship.
This becomes clear in the case against Stone. In 1996, the family of Patsy Byers charged that Stone and Warner Bros., the studio that released Natural Born Killers, were accountable for the actions of the two persons who shot Byers during a 1995 robbery.
Byers' suit alleges the producers distributed a film "which they knew or should have known would cause and inspire people to commit crimes such as the shooting of Patsy Ann Byers." The suit further complains Natural Born Killers glamorized random violence and criminals.
This is a curious take on a film that quickly is becoming the most misunderstood movie of the decade. Stone's film is a satire that dissects the I-scratch-your-back-you-scratch-mine relationship between celebrity criminals and the electronic media. The film's violence is excessive to the point of absurdity; anyone who thinks it is making crime or blood-shed sexy is missing the point. Even Rolling Stone's Peter Travers, who picked Natural Born Killers as
1994's worst film, agreed the themes about violence and sensationalism came through loud and clear.
The case of The Siege is less simple to dismiss. For one thing, it is not due for nationwide release until Nov. 6. Secondly, its critics would have us believe that it will be the most offensive film since Birth of a Nation, the silent epic that depicted Klansmen as gallant protectors of the American way.
If that is the issue, then anyone who sticks up for The Siege stands the risk of appearing to defend racism. But will this movie, regardless of its merits as a work of art or even pulpy entertainment, have the power to incite acts of violence against Arab-Americans?
I doubt it. A film is a reel of plastic. The images and sounds it carries provide passive entertainment; each viewer brings his own preconceived ideas, philosophies and prejudices to the viewing experience. No clear-thinking individual will come away from The Siege suddenly burning with the desire to terrorize every Arab-American within walking distance.
As a movie critic for more than five years, I've seen more carnage and gore disguised as entertainment that I care to admit. I've yet to harm anyone. Watching *Scarface* multiple times has not transformed me into a cocaine-snorting, profanity-spewing mobster.
The complaints against The Siege and Natural Born Killers are symbolic of a larger problem in the United States. People prefer to raise a fuss about the quality of popular entertainment instead of tackling society's problems head-on. But if parents don't want their kids to listen to Marilyn Manson or watch Boyz N the Hood, there is a simple solution: Take the CDs away and turn the TV off.
If the producers of The Siege are guilty of racism, so be it. We as consumers have the right to ignore their product. Educators then could use the film as an example of how far we still need to go before the United States can be classified as colorblind
But claiming that the film will inspire more hatred won't be a step forward. It will be a massive leap in reverse.
Doherty is an Olathe senior in journalism and the Kansan movie critic.

ELECTION Endorsements
Graves deserves support of University community
Sometimes you have to stick with who you know, and the Kansas gubernatorial race is no exception. University of Kansas students and Kansans should cast their ballot for Gov. Bill Graves on Nov. 3.
Graves, a Kansas native, has served as governor for the last four years. During his term, he has proven himself as a moderate governor — a welcome role for a liberal to moderate university in a Republican-dominated state.
A selling point for Graves is his willingness to invest in education — especially higher education. His budget recommendations to the Legislature include increased funding for the Regents universities, funding for technology, increased salaries and operating expenses. The overall funding increase to the Regents during his term has been 17.8 percent, $77.2 million. In his budget for the 1999 fiscal year, he proposed a 5.1 percent increase, $25 million for the Regents.
To maintain and attract faculty to Regents institutions, Graves has recommended a 4 percent salary increase. The University of Kansas is on the low end of the paying scale when compared to peer institutions. But it should be at the same level as peer institutions.
Along with his dedication to financing Regents' institutions, Graves has supported community colleges by allocating additional funds. The support amounted to a $2.5 million or a 4.4 percent increase this year. During his administration, he has supported a 16.3 percent, $8.7 million, overall increase for community colleges.
His opponent, Tom Sawyer, a democratic Kansas Legislature member from Wichita, has raised valid proposals for education in Kansas. His Student Tuition Assistance Recognition Scholarship or STARS program served to be the main thrust of his campaign. Although the program has been shunned by some as implausible, programs much like it are working in other states.
PETER SMITH
The program calls for the state to provide as much as $2,600 a year to be applied to tuition costs for eligible Kansas students. The scholarship could be used for any Kansas university, community college, vocational school or independent college. To be eligible, recipients must be Kansas students with at least a "B"
Graves
Sawyer
average in high school, maintain a 2.75 grade point average in college and come from a family that makes less than $85,000 each year.
In addition to Grave's support for education, he believes in a "pro-family" approach to the abortion issue and encourages alternatives without legislating against abortion. In an attempt to promote alternatives, he proposed and signed into law a $1,250 tax credit to families who adopt a child. In 1997, he supported and signed legislation that ensured a woman meets with her physician before an abortion procedure to obtain information about the procedure, alternatives to abortion and community support outlets.
The program, costing $42 million each year, would be financed by the lottery. The idea of aiding Kansas students should not fall by the wayside simply because it is a part of Sawyer's campaign. Sawyer has good ideas, but he appears to be more of an idealist rather than a realist by proposing increases and supporting the elimination of sales tax, which brings in about $213 million each year.
The race for governor has not been closely contested and both candidates have run clean campaigns, which could be in part because of the one-sidedness of the race. But nonetheless, both candidates deserve praise for acting civil and appropriately discussing the issues in Kansas. Graves has served Kansas well for the past four years, and we should keep him in a position to continue. Sawyer has offered insightful ideas for higher education and should push those in the state legislature. Regardless of who you support, vote. Students have valuable perspectives and should voice them Nov.3.
Democrats most favorable candidates for U.S. Congress
The University Daily Kansan editorial board endorses the Democratic Party ticket in the upcoming Kansas senatorial and congressional races.
Senate
Kansas politics, in particular the congressional races, are marked by Democratic candidates who are afraid to put the "D" word or the donkey on their printed material for fear of scaring away potential voters before candidates can say, "My name is ..."
Abortion rights and gun control were the primary measuring-rod issues in the board's decision to support the Democratic Party, as was the Republican Party candidates' propensity to vote in accordance with far-right, extreme views.
That, along with candidates' unwillingness to take stands on divisive issues unless forced, can make it difficult to pin down their ideologies.
The passing of a concealed-handgun law only would aggravate, if not exacerbate, the already violent environment that exists in many Kansas urban centers and increase the number of gun-related accidents in Kansas homes. The board does not support any candidate who would back such legislation.
The anti-gun-control stance as well as the religious right has become synonymous with extreme-right ideology.
Freedom of religion is a cornerstone of our democratic society but so is freedom from religion. Because this is a

democracy and interest groups may petition the government for whatever policy changes they see fit, it is up to the citizens of Kansas to vote out candidates who would use religious beliefs or campaign donor allegiances — namely the Christian Coalition, or in the case of gun-control, the National Rifle Association
The above were the prominent issues to the board.
Senatorial candidate Paul Feleciano, a 26-
year Kansas Senate member and Vietnam War veteran, has taken firm stances against both a concealed-handgun law and the limiting of abortion rights. And as a Hispanic American, Feleciano would bring a welcome perspective to the minority starved U. S. Senate.
- The board made no endorsement for the 1st District race. Republican incumbent Jerry Moran is running uncontested. Moran is against abortion in all circumstances.
The 2nd District pits Democratic candidate and Vietnam veteran Jim Clark against incumbent Republican and Olympic silver medalist Jim Ryun. Clark supports abortion rights, national environmental standards and is running to prevent "right-wing extremists" from running Congress. Ryun would like to make abortion illegal and has supported abolishing the Environmental Protection Agency.
3rd District
The 3rd District race has been hotly contested between two prominent eastern Kansans: Democrat Dennis Moore and incumbent Republican Vince Snowbarger. Moore served as the Kansas Assistant Attorney General and had a successful 12-year stint as the Johnson County District Attorney. He has come out against a concealed-handgun law that Snowbarger supports. And Moore spoke before KU students outside Wescoe Hall about his belief in bolstering support for higher education.

In the 4th District, Democrat Jim Lawing, a former head of the Kansas Civil Liberties Union, is running against incumbent Republican Todd Tiahart. Although Lawing has taken no firm stance on abortion rights, he has been against the federal government coming between women and their physicians. He has made promises to maintain the ban on assault rifles and lists student grant and loan programs among his priorities.
Editor's note: The Kansan editorial board, which is made up of KU students, is an independent voice of The University Daily Kansan. The board members voted individually on candidates and decided whom to endorse. The Kansan editor and managing editors are members of the board but did not participate in this year's candidate endorsements. The opinion page editors did not have a vote in the endorsements.

Annual expo brings phones with computer capabilities
By Liz Wristen and Chris Fickett
Kansas staff writers
Computer, telecommunications and business equipment companies from the Kansas City area and beyond showed off their latest gadgets and gizmos at the Information Technology Exposition and Conference.
The 15th annual expo ended yesterday at Bartle Hall in Kansas City, Mo. The two-day expo featured more than 400 information technology vendors, jazz music, a rock-climbing wall and prize giveaways.
Corporations like Apple Computer were at the expo, as well as Kansas City and Lawrence area businesses.
Apple displayed its new iMac and the Mac OS 8.5 upgrade, called Sherlock.
Lionel Smith, senior account manager for Mac Source in Kansas City, Mo., said that Sherlock was a great tool for student researchers.
Smith said Sherlock allowed users to find files by topic and by name on their hard drives, and he said it doubled as an Internet
search engine.
Computer Renaissance, 1525 W. Sixth St., displayed two Internet phone products at the expo.
A product called iPhone incorporates a telephone, a caller ID log, an e-mail terminal and a World Wide Web browser.
Jerry Plankinton, Computer Renaissance technician, said that the iPhone catered to people who did not know how to use a personal computer.
Computer Renaissance also displayed the Aplio/Phone 1.5, which allows a regular telephone to make calls over the Internet.
Dennis Sterrett, owner and manager of Computer Renaissance, said that the Aplo/Phone 1.5 was ideal for students who are looking to reduce their long-distance phone bills.
"For many students, talking long distance to their parents can usually cost an arm and a leg," Sterrett said. "On this phone, you can use an Internet service to make your phone calls for free."
Representatives from Sprint showed off their PCS cellular
phone at the expo.
Courtney Galvin. Sprint account executive and 1995 KU graduate, said the PCS phone was a great deal for students driving back and forth from Lawrence to home.
For $16.99 per month, students can receive 30 free minutes each month, caller ID, call waiting and three-way calling on their Sprint PCS phone.
Students looking for an alternative to KU dial-in accounts could pay for their Internet access through Flashnet Communications.
Jeffery Sherwood, president of Com Net Solutions Inc. in Kansas City, Mo., said Flashnet had a network of 350 dial-in locations.
Sherwood said that students could check their e-mail and browse the Internet in Lawrence and at home through Flashnet.
For $13.95 per month, students can receive unlimited Internet access by dialing a Kansas City, Mo., telephone number. The monthly fee also includes an email account, two megabytes of Web space and Netscape browser software.
Recruiting trip seeks diversity
International students enrollment increase goal of travels abroad
By Melody Ard
Kanson staff writer
Gloria Flores and Mary-Elizabeth Debicki would like to see some new faces on campus next year.
Flores, program director of the Multicultural Resource Center, and Debicki, former director of study abroad, left Sunday on a recruiting trip to Latin America.
"Our goal is to establish contacts with individuals and institutions in Costa Rica and Mexico, and to establish foundation to attract more Latin American students," Flores said.
The two will spend five days in each country visiting high schools, government officials and universities.
Former international students and other alumni also were recruited to help with the trip. Flores said former students were instrumental in gaining access to prospective students, including arranging a visit to the top bilingual high school in Mexico City.
Debicki said the response generated from the alumni was key to the trip. One KU graduate arranged for Debicki and Flores to talk to college-bound students in Mexico.
"One exciting thing will be addressing a college prep class at a
Mexican high school and let then, know what options are available outside their country." Flores said.
The recruiting trip will resemble recruiting efforts that take place at the University, complete with Jayhawk memorabilia and University applications. Through videos, they hoped to take a bit of the University along with them.
However, Debicki said that she did not expect to see any immediate results from their efforts.
"I cannot imagine getting a commitment while we are there, but we'll be bringing posters, Jayhawk pencils and key rings, and viewbooks and catalogs to give them something to think about," she said. "I am comfortable that we will give them enough information."
The trip was a small part of an overall international recruiting effort. Recruiters said there were two reasons for the trip.
"I think that having international students makes a worldly environment for all students," Flores said. "We also want to share with the world what a great University this is."
According to Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost, professors have made trips to Thailand, Brazil, Argentina and several embassies in the United States as part of the International Student Recruitment Advisory Committee.
"It was started two years ago, because we had never had a cohesive

plan to recruit international students," McCluskey-Fawcett said. "We have an increasing emphasis on Latin America because of the economic situations in Eastern countries. Right now, not a lot of people can afford it."
Flores was chosen for this trip for her language skills and Debicki was selected for experience with international students.
"I've had the good fortune to be able to maintain my Spanish, so I will go as an ambassador and a translator." Flores said. "Latin American students are very friendly people, and I want to shake hands with them and tell them about our University. I'm looking forward to the friendships."
Although she expected to have a good time on the trip, Debicki stressed the importance of making friends and forming connections in Latin America.
"I like meeting students and telling them the KU story," she said. "This is work. It is fun work, but it is not a vacation."

Former dictator's extradition blocked
Augusto Pinochet will not face trial in British courts
The Associated Press
LONDON — The High Court ruled yesterday that Augusto Pinochet was immune from prosecution in British courts and ordered the British government to pay the former Chilean dictator's legal costs of $600,000.
The court threw out two Spanish arrest warrants acted upon by British authorities. The warrants sought Pinochet's extradition to face charges of murder, kidnapping and torturing political opponents during his 17-year dictatorship.
In his ruling, Lord Chief Justice Thomas Bingham said it was "of course a matter for
acute public concern that those who abuse sovereign power to commit crimes against humanity should not escape trial and appropriate punishment."
But nothing, including the charter that established the International War Crimes Tribunal at Nuremberg in 1945, invalidated the principle "that one sovereign state will not impugn another in relation to its sovereign acts," Bingham said.
In Madrid, lawyers trying to extradite Pinochet to Spain criticized the British court but said they remained hopeful that an appeals court eventually would overturn the ruling.
"I was very optimistic until today," said lawyer Virginia Diaz, who has worked closely on the case.
"We were surprised by the ruling," said Diaz, who argued that international law clearly ruled out immunity in cases of crimes against humanity. "We are not
talking about a little bit of corruption, but the killing, torture and disappearance of thousands of people."
To the joy of Chilean exiles, however, the court ordered that Pinochet remain in custody until an appeal by British prosecutors to the House of Lords.
The Crown Prosecution Service said it would file an urgent appeal on the immunity question Monday, the deadline given by the court.
Bingham said he was giving British prosecutors the opportunity to appeal because of the public importance and international interest of the case.
Pinochet's lawyers immediately applied for the release on bail of the 82-year-old former leader, who is recuperating from spinal surgery performed on Oct.9.
Magistrates scheduled the bail hearing for Friday and said they would not rule out holding it at
"We are not talking about a little bit of corruption, but the killing, torture and disappearance of thousands of people."

the private London Clinic, where Pinochet has remained under arrest since Oct. 16.
Lawyers for the Spanish magistrate had alleged that Pinochet was responsible for up to 4,000 murders, including at least one in the United States, and had sent agents to Spain to kill opponents there.
Pinochet, who came to power in 1973, stepped down in 1990, but remained commander-in-chief of the army until March.
Forecast clear for Glenn's historic launch
The Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. The countdown toward the launch of John Glenn and his six crewmates rolled on smoothly yesterday, with NASA officials saying preparations were nearly flawless for today's liftoff.
Glenn, a 77-year-old senator poised to return to space 36 years after becoming the first American in orbit, spent most of the day with the other astronauts in the crew quarters. They reviewed flight documents and attended a briefing on the mission progress.
NASA test director Steve Altemus said the countdown ranked among the smoothest he had experienced. The lack
of problems,he said,made Discovery's preparations "right up there with the best of them."
The weather forecast remained excellent for launch, forecasters said.
Hurricane Mitch, which NASA weather observers had been following closely, veered westward Tuesday, away from Florida. It was not expected to have any effect on the space mission, but NASA forecaster Ed Priselac said the storm still could head toward the southeastern United States next week.
"It is truly an unknown where Mitch will end up." Priselac said.
The launch opportunity can be extended until 4:30 p.m. today. After that, the mission would be rescheduled
for tomorrow, which also has a favor able forecast.
The mission is scheduled to last eight days, 20 hours, with a landing back at the Kennedy Space Center.
Glenn will become the oldest person ever launched into space, breaking the record held by Story Musgrave, who was 61 when he made his last shuttle flight two years ago.
There are 83 experiments on board. Glenn will participate in 10. Nearly all of his experiments will explore the effects of weightlessness on the human body. These effects are similar to the symptoms of aging that many people suffer on Earth. Scientists hope the research will lead to new treatments.
Albanians reluctant to trust Serbians; few return home
The Associated Press
DRAGOBILJE, Yugoslavia — Two things told ethnic Albanians that some change has come from international pressure on their Serbian enemies: Uniformed guerrilla fighters moved openly in several areas yesterday, and the dreaded police checkpoints had virtually disappeared.
That's not enough, though, to persuade most to return to their homes or to trust Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosev. NATO's decision to lift its deadline for Milosev to comply or possibly face airstrikes only bolstered their misgivings.
"NATO, it isn't doing the job," said red-eyed Albert Pacarizi, 24, at the funeral of his 18-year-old cousin, a guerrilla killed Tuesday by a land mine left by Serb police. "They don't attack. They just give a news conference."
Scores of armed guerrillas in green camouflage uniforms with the red and yellow badge of their Kosovo Liberation Army marched in formation at the funeral. That was unthinkable three days earlier, when Serb police manned a checkpoint on the road to Dragobilje, 25 miles southwest of Pristina.

The police withdrew Monday as part of the Oct. 12 agreement between Milosevic and U.S. envoy Richard Holbrooke to end the crisis in southern Serbia, the dominant republic of Yugoslavia.
Under the deal, Milosevic must cut the number of troops and police in Kosovo to the levels of last February, when he began his crackdown on secessionist

rebels.
Hundreds have died, and 300,000 ethnic Albanians have been forced from their homes. About 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million residents are ethnic Albanian, and most favor independence.
With Yugoslav forces withdrawing, NATO refrained from setting a new deadline after its last one expired Tuesday night. It kept more than 400 warplanes on alert, and the U.S. Navy announced yesterday that American P-3C Orion surveillance planes would begin regular flights over Kosovo on Sunday.
The planes can fly up to 12 hours without refueling and will help monitor the situation day and night regardless of the weather.
By warning that the threat of attack remains, NATO hoped to guarantee the safety of the ethnic Albanian refugees, who are terrified of returning home unless government troops and Serb police have retreated completely.
The threat was insufficient for Albanian politicians hoping the alliance would strike the Yugoslav war machine.

Commentary
In-state rivalry lacks intensity of years past
There was a time when the Kansas vs. Kansas State football game was the biggest event in the state.
Larger than the wheat harvest. Greater than election day. More critical than who got blue ribbons at the State Fair.
People spent the week leading to the contest doing what they could to give their team an advantage and strike at the hearts of the opposition.
Students snuck onto the rival's campus and caused creative destruction.
Kansas die-hards painted Jayhawks on Kansas State's football field, dressed up Kansas State statues in Kansas hats and jackets and then shaved the Wildcats' sheep.
Kansas State fanatics poured purple dye in the Chi Omega fountain, kidnapped Baby Jay and left cow droppings lying around the Kansas cam-
pings lying around the Kansas campus.
People lived and died by this game. In 1975, people bought calendars that went up to 1990, just so they could mark the game for years to come.
Kansas graduates would, for one week, stop talking to their spouses who had graduated from Kansas State.
As a fourth-generation KU student, I was taught as a child that Wildcats are the weakest of the cat family.
Kansas State graduates preached to their children that Kansas had to invent the Jayhawk, because no real animal wanted the shame of being the Kansas mascot.
Students skinned class before the

game just to rest for "Sacred Saturday." Professors gave pop quizzes asking, "Are you going to the game?" Students who answered "no" were in danger of flunking.
Football players went into seclusion days before the game, watching tapes of games they didn't even play in but that showed past losses their team had suffered.
For one week, the state focused on the biggest game of the year.
This week. it is a side note.
The Wildcats have trounced Kansas five consecutive years. Kansas State is now a perennial powerhouse ranked in the Top 10, while Kansas is searching for a winning record.
The rivalry, while still significant, does not have the pregame intensity it once had. Kansas, once divided for one Saturday of every year, is now a state that recognizes the game but doesn't allow it to overtake daily lives.
At some point on Saturday, when the Jayhawks falls behind, an absurd group of Kansas fans will yell, "Wait until basketball season." This only will show how much the rivalry has deteriorated. The football game used to be THE game. Basketball season could not wipe away the pain of a football loss.
The situation has been worsened by the Athletics Department's attempt to cash in on the rivalry. Tickets for Saturday's game are 840 per ticket, the most in history, and many fans are not paying.
More than 7,500 tickets remain for a game which many had expected a near sellout of the 50,200-seat Memorial Stadium.
It is unreasonable to ask fans to pay so much. Families of four must spend $160 to just get in to the game. Then that family must pay the outrageous food and drink prices.
Many cannot afford it, so they don't go. And that hurts the rivalry.
If young people and fans are forced to watch the game on television or listen to the radio because they can't ever afford tickets, then they lose a sense of how important the game is. Television cannot capture the emotion and atmosphere of the rivalry. If people cannot experience the game firsthand, then it becomes less important to them.
Somewhere along the line the game became less important to people. Too bad, because this rivalry always has been a good one.
Let me correct mvself.
Yesterday I wrote that during Saturday's Homecoming game a few Crimson Girls made fun of an alumna baton twirler during halftime of the game.
Larson, who was very pleasant, said the twirler was a friend of the Crimson Girls who works regularly with the women. The Crimson Girls were not laughing at the baton twirler, they were joking around with her.
Lindsey Larson, Crimson Girls captain, visited me and enlightened me to new facts not initially told to me.
I apologize for my mistake, but my initial point still stands.
It is great that the Crimson Girls have that relationship with an alumna. However, the people sitting in the stands at the football game did not know that the Crimson Girls were not being mean but just having fun.
To the casual observer, it looked as if the Crimson Girls were making fun of the woman.
The Crimson Girls and any other group that performs in front of thousands of people should keep this in mind at all times.

Jayhawks prevail in last match
Volleyball
Oklahoma State finally is defeated after intense rally
By Laura Bokenkroger Kansan sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
For the first time this season, the Kansas volleyball team had to play a fifth game.
The Oklahoma Sooners came back from a two-game deficit last night at Allen Field House, winning two consecutive games sending the match to rally scoring.
Rally scoring means that a point is scored on every serve—every side-out is a point.
But Kansas prevailed, improving to 14-9 overall and 4-7 in the confer-
see, after winning 16-14, 15-11, 13-15, 7-15 and 15-7 in five games.
"It was definitely a battle all the way," said right side hitter

Nancy Bell. "We kind of let ourselves down in the third game because we weren't executing."
Oklahoma jumped out to a 6-3 lead in the first game and kept it close the whole way. After falling 16-14, the Sooners lost some momentum and fell behind 12-4 in the second game.
But, as they would continue to prove all night, they were resilient, rattling off four consecutive points to pull within four. But the Jayhawks held on for the win, defeating the Sooners 15-11.
But in the third game, the momentum shifted. The Jayhawks lost a 9-2 lead as Oklahoma battled to stay alive.
"Oklahoma comes in and they're relaxed," coach Ray Beachard said. "They're thinking they have nothing to lose, because theyre not supposed to get much done. All they wanted to do was hang around and extend the match, and they did that."
The Jayhawks were kept off-balance as Oklahoma's offense took over. The Sooners tied the game at 12 and again at 13 before taking the lead for the first time. They won 15-13.
"We stopped battling," said setter Laura Rohde. "We were ahead 9-2 and they won it and that's unacceptable. We should finish the game off."
Oklahoma was on a roll. The Sooners, who were 1-9 in the conference before last night, jumped ahead 13-4 in the fourth game and the Jayhawks never recovered.
"It was really quiet out there," Bell said. "We weren't taking responsibility for our mistakes as a team, and we weren't executing. We weren't using our opportunities to score points."
After losing 15-7 in the fourth game, the Jayhawks were faced with a new challenge.
They would have to play a fifth game—in rally scoring—to decide the winner.
The Jayhawks jumped ahead 5-1, but the game was quickly tied at 6. The teams battled for each point, keeping one point away from the leader the whole way.
Tied at 14, the Sooners set up for a critical kick on a Kansas overpass, but Rohde blocked the attack, giving Kansas the 15-14 edge. Beard said it was plays like those that helped them overcome the Sooners 18-16.
"Games don't get much closer than that," Bechard said. "We put ourselves in a real tense situation. You hate to get to that point, but we got some breaks, and we made some great plays. Maybe that'll help us down the road somewhere."
Rohde broke the Kansas record for assists in a single five-game match, posting 74, one more than the previous best.
The Jayhawks battle Kansas State at 7:30 tomorrow night in Allen Field House.

Women's basketball Big 12 coaches hope to sow better seeds
By Sam Mellinger
Kansas sportswriter
The University of Kansas women's basketball team danced to Aretha Franklin's "Respect" at Late Night on Oct. 16, and yesterday at Big 12 Media Day, the league's coaches were singing a similar tune.

The event was held at the Embassy Suites KCI Airport, and
"As coaches, we need to do a better job promoting our-

iect of some disrespect.
"We don't toot our horn enough in this league," said Nebraska second-year coach Paul Sanderford. "If you watch when the SEC is on TV, they're always saying they're great and they're all of this, well, the bottom six teams in our conference would wear out the SEC."
Oklahoma State coach Dick Hall-
terman said his team was the sub-
selves and each other," said Iowa State coach Bill Pennelly.
"I really felt like we did get snubbed last year," he said. "If you look at what we did in the last
10 games last year, for us to not be in is absolutely a joke. I'm not so sure we didn't get sold out a little bit to get some better seeds down the road."
The Cowgirls won eight of their last 10 games in 1997-98, losing to eventual champion Texas Tech in the semifinals of the Big 12 Tournament.
Halterman suggested that his team was left out of the tournament as part of a deal to make Iowa State a higher seed.
"It's hard to justify Iowa State as a top-16 team," he said.
The Cyclones beat OSU 68-63 on Feb. 4 in Stillwater, Okla.
"They're still on the committee, and I've probably said too much already," he said.
ratterman declined to elaborate on which selection committee members may have been involved.
Some see this season as an opportunity to add the Big 12 to the nation's top conferences. Kansas and Texas Tech are ranked in several preseason top 10 lists, and Iowa State and Nebraska also have received some national attention.
Many of the coaches and players said that the rankings in women's college basketball had a lot to do with tradition. Players and teams from traditional power conferences such as the SEC and ACC tend to get more attention.
This season, several Big 12 teams feature some of the nation's top players. Preseason conference Player of the Year Lynn Pride,

"Can you imagine the
University of Texas, with all its history, being picked seventh?" Sanderford said.
The depth of quality teams in the conference makes for parity when the wins and losses are added up, but Kansas State coach Deb Patterson said this might be the year that the Big 12 got its respect.
"We have a legitimate shot at qualifying six or seven teams to the NCAA tournament," she said. "We're excited about that and about lining up against quality competition each and every night."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Oct. 29).
You're strong this year, and you'll need every bit of that strength.
Show it in October, in writing. Money is unstable in December, but
you can find ways to make more by January.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Comfort a friend who is having a hard time with an authority figure, and advise him or her not to make too big a deal of this. Your friend is actually at a slight disadvantage. This will become apparent later, especially if a big scene is made. Advise caution and diplomacy.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Don't give an inch, if you can possibly help it. This is going to be difficult, because you seem to be outnumbered. Someone else thinks he or she knows what's best for you. That is highly unlikely, because this person isn't even listening to you.
Germany July 21 - June 21. Today is
You may feel tugged-tied today. It's not your fault. It’s the conditions in effect now. The words won't come easily. If you’re trying to write a proposal or a short story, just do your rough draft and let it go at that. You’ll be able to put in the corrections later.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
If you run out of ideas today, don't despair. Take several deep breaths, then call your sweetheart for advice. He or she is in a tough situation too, but between you, a solution to the problem can be found. You may have to go around an obstacle rather than trying to plow through it.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Your partner feels omniscient today, and it might be true. If you act as if it were, he or she might start trusting your opinion a little more. When you two argue, you both lose. Treat each other with respect and you'll get past a barrier that been blocking both of you.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a *7*.
You may be feeling pressured, but don't let it get to you. You're learning quickly. It might not feel like it, because you can't do the job perfectly yet, but that's OK. Perfection will come with time. Right now, just keep doing the best you can with what you have.
There's a condition in effect that could block communications. You might have a breakdown with the telephone or Internet. Be careful what you say, too. The same condition could also cause misunderstanding. Keep most of your thoughts to yourself as a longer, especially about money
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
You're only confused because the path you want isn't open. Don't panic. Find another way around instead. An older friend can bring you an opportunity, if you are willing to listen. A little respect also will be helpful. You may be smarter, but you need the other person's talent.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19); Today is a 6.
Aauarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today is a 6.
Someone might misunderstand your instructions on purpose, so make yourself especially clear. The one who will cause the most trouble isn't saying much but is in a position to force an outcome. So you also will have to do some sleuthing. Otherwise, you are only getting half the picture.
SCOOP
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Be careful what you say today. Choose your words slowly and think each possible consequence out before you act. In other words, still. The longer you hold out, the better your chances of success. You may have to hold out clear until next month, before you see the results you’re after.
男女同厕
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Some people think Capricorns are workaholics, but you probably don't agree. You just like to stay busy, that all. It takes a real challenge to get your interest, such as making a business work. Did you know Capricorn is the sign of the entrepreneur? It also is the sign of tags to riches, so go for it.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
The ego battle continues with no end in sight. Sometimes you wonder how people can get so stuck on themselves when they obviously don't know the answer. You don't know either, but at least you admit it. And because you admit it, you're the one who might actually find the answer.

Big 12, SEC conferences add Bowl to post-season
SHREVEPORT, La. — The Independence Bowl has announced a four-year agreement that will feature football teams from the Big 12 Conference and the Southeastern Conference in the post-season.
The Big 12 already had tie-ins with the Bowl Championship Series alliance (Fiesta, Rose, Sugar and Orange), the Alamo Bowl, Cotton Bowl, Holiday Bowl and the Insight, com Bowl.
Under the new agreement, after Bowl Championship Series selections are made, the other Big 1.2-affiliated bowls each will submit to the conference their choices of teams. The conference will coordinate which teams will appear in which games.
"The Sanford Independence Bowl will work with the eligible institutions, the conference and the other SEC bowl partners to provide the best matchups for each bowl," an Independence Bowl news release said Tuesday.
The Southeastern Conference selection will come from a pool of bowls that have tie-ins with the SEC, including the championship series, the Citrus Bowl, the Outback Bowl, the Cotton Bowl, the Peach Bowl, the Music City Bowl and now the Independence Bowl.

Soccer player scores winners

Team's defender helps to establish women's success
By Brad Hallier
Kansas sportswriter
On page 17 of the women's soccer media guide, Kansas defender Kyle Watts described her favorite moment in soccer.
"Scoring the winning goal with a diving header," she said.
OK, so she hasn't scored on a diving header. However, twice this season Watts has scored the winning goal on a header.
Missouri was the first to suffer a defeat from a Watts header when Kansas upset the Tigers 1-0 Sept.8.
"The that goal against MU was my most memorable one," she said. "It was our first win on the season, and it was my first collegiate goal."
She repeated the feat five days
later when she scored the decisive goal in a 4-1 win against Central Missouri State. Watts would add another goal on a header two weeks later in a 5-0 win against Western Illinois.
Scoring on a header is not easy, but Watts knows the secret.
"It's timing, jumping ability and judging where the ball is going to go," she said. "Maybe it's something you are born with or have a knack for."
Kansas coach Dan Magner said that next season he would train Watts to target corner kicks and free kicks.
"It adds a great dimension to the game, and we will continue to look for her on set pieces next year," he said.
Watts, a sophomore from Tecumseh, said that she had made strides since starting 13 out of 19 games last season.
"I was kind of scared and felt intimidated," she said. "All the upperclassmen had high expectations for me. Now I feel like I know what I'm doing."
Magner said that Watts had made strides since the spring season.
"She has raised her level tremendously since last fall, and we began seeing glimpses of that in the spring," he said. "In games versus Memphis and Iowa, Kylie was clearly one of our top two players on the field."
Even though Watts has tallied three goals this year, she knows her job as a Jayhawk is far from finished.
Watts chose Kansas because of its proximity to her home. Watts also believed that she could make an impact as a member of Kansas' program.
"Before I leave, I would like to play in the Big 12 tournament and have a winning record," she said. "It's been a tough year, but the ball will eventually bounce our way. We were a better team this year. We've had plenty of 1-0 losses and we play well against good teams, but we are having a hard time playing a full 90 minutes."
NBA games canceled for November
Jordan speaks up for players in talks
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — David Stern cut two more weeks off the NBA schedule, debated the finer points of the lockout with Michael Jordan, and then met with the players to see if the sides could compromise on the "guts" of a new deal.
"I feel neither optimism nor pessimism. I just think that we've got to talk," the NBA commissioner said. "We may have the skeleton of a deal. But in terms of a hard negotiation on the guts of this deal, I would say we're no place yet."
The cancellations, which wiped out the rest of the November schedule, came after a meeting of the league's Board of Governors at which some owners asked when the "drop dead" date would be for losing the entire regular season.
Stern said he didn't want to set a deadline.
"One, we want to be ready to be imaginative," he said. "Two, we don't want to make threats; we want to make a deal."
With that, he and the owners' negotiating committee walked out of their news conference, took an elevator three flights up and went into a conference room where about 100 players had been meeting.
According to several sources who were in the room and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity, Jordan, Washington Wizards owners Abe Pollin and Stern had one of the most heated exchanges after Jordan asked why increases in franchise values were not being figured into profitability calculations.
After that 90-minute question-and-answer meeting, the sides were to resume formal negotiations at 5 p.m. EST at an undisclosed location.
"We've been trying to take steps to bridge the gap. Now the shoe is on the other foot," union president Patrick
Ewing said. "In my negotiating with the Knicks, they always told me one side cannot monopolize the whole thing. It needs to be a win-win situation."
Two weeks' worth of games already
had been scrapped,
and now the season
can't begin until
Dec. 1 at the earliest.
Stern did say, however, that the league and union would discuss "recapturing" games. That was a change from two weeks ago, when the league announced the first set of cancellations and said the games would not be made up.
NBA
"They had told us about games being recaptured. We knew that," said Jeffrey Kessler, the lead outside counsel for the union. "You can add
(games) on later, or put more into the schedule."
Until this labor dispute, the league had never lost a game to a work stoppage.
In all, 194 games have been lost with the latest cancellation of 95 games. Each team's 82-game schedule has now been whittled to about 68 games, and the players have lost about $200 million in salaries.
Among the players on hand were Jordan, Scottie Pipen, David Robinson and Reggie Miller. Jordan was probably the most vocal, several participants said.
"I have an obligation as a veteran player to see that the players of tomorrow have the same benefits and opportunities that I have," Jordan said. "Dr. J and Elgin Baylor and Oscar Robertson and all those guys fought for this collective bargaining agreement and the Larry Bird exception and the freedom to have flexibility.
"I'm obligated to make sure the other players have the same opportunity," Jordan said.
Women's basketball in Big 12 conference loaded with talent, fronted by Jayhawks
Commentary
At the Big 12 women's basketball media day yesterday, I learned that this season's- Kansas women's basketball team is special.
The coaches have picked the Jayhawks to win the conference for good reason. Five starters return for the Jayhawks, and junior guard Lynn Pride, a preseason All-American and plaver of
the year candidate, leads the team.
PETER L. MILLER
And she isn't the only star in the conference. E d w i n a Brown of Texas and Angie Braziel of Texas Tech played with Pride on the USA
Jones Cup Team that went 5-0 this summer in Tapel, Taiwan.
Matt Friedrichs
But not every conference school has the coaching stability Marian Washington has given Kansas for 25 years or a history of impact players like Pride, Tamecka Dixon, Angela Aycock and Lynette Woodard.
Brazil also is mentioned among players who could be the national player of the year.
Dick Halterman, who has coached at Oklahoma State since 1983, was among those predicting the Jayhawks will win the conference.
He acknowledged the difference between his team, composed primarily of Oklahoma players and the top teams in the conference like Kansas and Texas Tech.
"We don't have the marquee players year in and year out," Halterman said.
Two coaches will be new to the Big 12 this season.
Texas A&M coach Peggie Gillom enters her first season as a head coach after being an assistant at Ole Miss and for the 1997 and 1998 WNBA champion Houston Comets.
Missouri coach Cindy Stein has moved from Emporia State, just down the road from Lawrence, to Columbia where she will get to coach against Kansas.
She was jokingly surprised that reporters even had questions for her.
"When you're picked last in the Big 12, you never know if anybody is going to come to your press conference." Stein said.
Recognition and attention, however, is not a problem for the conference's best coaches.
Baylor coach Sonja Hogg coached Louisiana Tech to national championships in 1981 and 1982.
Texas coach Jody Conradt was inducted into the Naismith National Memorial Hall of Fame Oct. 2. She coached Texas to a National Championship in 1986.
And, Texas Tech coach Marsha Sharp coached the Lady Raiders to the 1993 National Championship.
Good and bad, top to bottom, the conference is one of the best in the nation according to the coaches.
"We have a legitimate shot at qualifying at least six or seven teams in the NCAA tournament," said Kansas State coach Deb Patterson.
That's what makes Kansas special. In a conference loaded with talented teams coached by legends, the Jayhawks are the preseason favorites.
Friedrichs is a Bremen graduate student in journalism.

Baseball legend DiMaggio to remain hospitalized
The Associated Press
Joe DiMaggio will be hospitalized for three more weeks with pneumonia and a lung infection even though his lawyer said yesterday he had improved from earlier this month when "we were fearful for his life."
DiMaggio's lawyer and friend, Morris Engelberg, said he had been with DiMaggio every day since the Hall of Famer was admitted to Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, Fla., on October 12.
DiMaggio had been in Intensive care
with severe breathing problems and had his lungs drained at least twice, Engelberg said.
It was the first time Engelberg acknowledged that the life of the Yankees' great had been in danger.
"Look, he will be 84 next month, and he has pneumonia," he said. "It was very, very serious. We were fearful for his life."
He said he got the first good sign in more than two weeks when he visited DiMaggio at 5 a.m. yesterday.
"He was sitting in a chair watching the news on television when I walked in."
"And I don't mind telling you that I was relieved, because when I walked into his room in intensive care, and he wasn't there. I thought he had died.
Engelberg said.
"But they had moved him to another room, and there he was, watching television. I hugged him."
DiMaggio "was breathing much better this morning. He was out of bed and his ewes were open." Engelberg said.
The hospital has refused to discuss DiMaggio's condition since he was admitted, citing orders from Engelberg.
Rodriguez may play winter ball
Rangers fear he will play and get injured in offseason games
The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas — Texas Rangers catcher伊沃 Rodriguez can play winter ball if he wants to because of what a team official called an "oversight."
Rangers general manager Doug Melvin said Tuesday that the team did not send Rodriguez's name to Major League Baseball by Sept. 1 to comply
with a new rule that would allow them to exempt him from winter ball.
The rule allows a team to forbid everyday players from playing during the off-
The rule allows a team to day players from playing d season if they had 520 or more at-bats during the season. Rodriguez had 579 at-bats.
sight, "the team will have no recourse if Rodriguez decides play again this year. He has just finished the first year of a five-year, $42.5 million contract.
Because of what Melvin called an "over-
"We assumed he would not play," Melvin said. "Sure, maybe we should have sent it in, but he told me he didn't
plan to play."
Melvin said Rodriguez assured him again Tuesday that he did not plan to play.
Rodriguez assured the Rangers he would not play in 1997 after he signed the new contract but later joined Caguais in the Puerto Rico League for 32 games and the Caribbean World Series.
"If I can't play, I can't play." Rodriguez said Tuesday.
Talented tossers pass as finalists
But he refused to say he wouldn't play. "I don't know what I'm going to do," he said.
The Rangers fear Rodriguez could get injured in winter ball as teammate Juan Gonzalez did, who missed the first month of the regular season in 1997 because of a thumb injury.
Five quarterbacks in position to receive college passing award
The Associated Press
LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Quarterbacks for three of the country's top four teams are among the finalists for the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award.
The five finalists include Joe Germaine of top-ranked Ohio State, Cade McNown of No. 2 UCLA and Michael Bishop of No. 4 Kansas State.
The other finalists are Donovan McNabb of 17th-ranked Syracuse and Daunte Culpepper of Central Florida.
The award is presented each year to the nation's top senior collegiate quarterback by the Frank Camp Chapter of the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Educational Foundation.
Germaine has completed 129 of 210 passes for 1,863 yards in seven games for the unbeaten Buckeyes.
McNown has connected on 96 of 176 passes for 1,607 yards and 12 touchdowns for UCLA (6-0).
Bishop ranks sixth nationally in passing efficiency, completing 80 of 153
passes for 1,553 for Kansas State (7-0).
McNabb has thrown for 1,259 yards while completing 96 of 136 passes for Syracuse (4-2) and ranks third nationally in passing efficiency.
Culpepper, the nation's leader in total offense, has completed 190 of 259 passes for 2,571 yards and 19 touchdowns for Central Florida (6-1).
The winner will be announced Nov. 24, and NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Johnny Unitas will make the official award presentation Dec. 11 in Louisville.
Tennessee quarterback Peyton Manning won the award last year.
Roger Clemens picks up No.1 player ranking
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Baseball's best player?
Mark McGwire?
Sammy Sosa?
Roger Clemens?
Right on.
Clemens regained his status as the top player, beating out Kevin Brown to finish No. 1 for the first time since 1988 in the annual rankings compiled by the Elias Sports Bureau.
Brown, 18-7 with a 2.38 ERA for San Diego, got
Clemens's performance the last two seasons gave him a 98.016 score out of 100, according to figures released Tuesday. The four-time Cy Young Award winner, a favorite to win No. 5 next month, went 20-6 for Toronto this season, tying for the American League lead in wins and finishing first in ERA (2.65) and strikeouts (271).
Brown, 18-7 with a 2.38 ERA
a 96.094, finishing just ahead of Atlanta's Greg Maddux (95.747) among National League pitchers.
In a surprise, Houston's Jeff Bagwell tied McGwire as the top NL first baseman. McGwire hit 70 home runs for St. Louis this season, setting a major league record.
B
Clemens: is favored to win his fifth Cy Young Award.
Sosa, who hit 66 homers for the Chicago Cubs, was ninth among NL outfielders. In addition to Brown, three other free agents finished first at their positions
in the AL: Mo Vaughn at first, Roberto Alomar at second and Bernie Williams in the outfield.
Vaughn ended a five-year winning streak at first by Chicago's Frank Thomas, who finished tops among designated hitters this year. Last year, Thomas had baseball's top score for the second time in three seasons.
Alomar has led AL second basemen five times in seven years, and Williams led AL outfielders for the second straight season.
Mike Piazza, who avoided free agency to sign a record $21 million, seven-year contract with the New York Mets this week, was the top NL catcher for the third straight season.
Rankings are based on statistics from two seasons and include figures such as plate appearances, batting average, on-base percentage, home runs and RBI. For pitchers, the stats include record, ERA, strikeouts, appearances and saves.
The rankings, created in the 1981 strike settlement, are used to divide free agents into groups that determine draft-pick compensation for a player's former club if he signs with a new team.

Former player hopes to unite U.S. soccer program as coach
NEW YORK — Bruce Arena can be blunt.
The old guard of the U.S. soccer team got a quick and loud message Tuesday from the new coach of the national team.
"We have to get as many young players in the mix early, and see how they adapt to international soccer," Arena said after receiving a four-year contract to rebuild the U.S. team. "These players lack
international experience, but they don't 'lack ability."
Arena, who led D.C. United to two championships in the first three years of Major League Soccer, replaces Steve Sampson, who resigned June 29, four days after the United States finished 0-3 in the World Cup.
Bob Contiguglia, who in August replaced Alan Rothenberg as the U.S. Soccer Federation president, wanted an U.S. citizen to succeed Sampson, the first U.S.-born coach
to lead a U.S. team at the World Cup.
"We want to send an emphatic
message," said Hank Steinbrecher, the USSF's executive director. "We at the federation believe in our league, we believe
Soccer Ball
in the strength of our league, we believe in the American player and we believe in the American coach."
Arena's first game will be an exhibition on Nov. 6 against Australia at San Jose, Calif., and he said that up to half of his roster would have no international experience.
"I'm not worried initially by wins and losses," Arena said. "Our goal is to have by the year 2000 a team that can advance to the final 32."
The United States won't begin qualifying for the 2002 World Cup until late in 2000. Arena said he hoped to develop players who had succeeded in the MLS and disputes
the notion of undiscovered talents waiting to be found outside the professional and youth leagues.
"Are there any Ronaldos walking around New York City right now? I don't think so," he said.
Arena set two goals: qualify for the 2002 tournament and then try to advance past the first round.
"Are the games in 1998 as important as the games in 2000 and 2001? No," he said. "But I think by the time the year 2000 comes along, we need to be showing some progress."

Nebraska quarterback may undergo surgery
LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska quarterback Bobby Newcombe might need surgery to repair his injured left knee. Then again, coach Frank Solich said Newcombe might start Saturday against Texas.
The Associated Press
"At this point in time, anything is possible." Solich said Tuesday.
During the team's weekly news conference, Newcombe said he would miss three to five
If reconstructive surgery is needed, Newcombe said he was advised that he would miss six to nine months. After the injury occurred in the season opener Aug. 29, doctors had said no surgery would be needed.

to Newcombe's posterior cruciate ligament, and Solich said Tuesday that team doctors were standing by their diagnosis.
The injury initially was reported as a partial tear
Newcombe: May need surgery on injured left knee.
sion that surgery was needed.
Later Tuesday, Newcombe wore street clothes as he tossed a football before practice. When drills began, he went to the sideline and sat with trainer Doak Oystergard.
After being injured, Newcombe missed two games and an open week then returned — wearing a knee brace — and rushed for 79 yards and three scores in a 55-7 victory against Washington on Sept. 26.
"We're going to take it one step at a time and make sure Bobby is close to 100 percent," Gill said on Saturday. "If he's like he was today, then next week we'll probably go with another quarterback."
Asked Tuesday about Gill's comments, Solich said: "I think a number of football players in the country are not playing at 100 percent. That's part of the game. We certainly wouldn't want Bobby or any other athlete to participate in any game if there is a threat of additional injury."
In four games since, Newcombe's mobility and endurance have seemed increasingly limited.
St. Louis rookie jailed
Newcombe admitted his abilities have been curtailed.
"I really haven't tried sprinting on it without the brace," he said. "The doctor tried some motions the other day. I had full range of motion but some of the things he did, I felt a lot of pain."
The Associated Press
Involuntary manslaughter charge imposed on player
ST. LOUISE — Leonard Little of the St. Louis Rams was charged with involuntary manslaughter yesterday after being accused of getting drunk at his birthday party and killing a woman in a car crash Oct. 19.
The rookie linebacker faces one to four years in jail under sentencing guidelines, St. Louis Circuit Attorney Dee Joyce-Hayes said.
Little agreed to surrender yesterday. Bond was set at $25,000 by Circuit Judge Steve Ohmer. Joyce Hayes said expected Little to post bail and be released.
"In my 18 years here I've never known a defendant to be jailed pending trial on an
involuntary manslaughter charge," Joyce-Haves said.
Little was due at Rams training camp yesterday. Coach Dick Vermell has said he would have no problems playing Little even if he were charged.
He is accused of getting drunk at a party before his sport utility vehicle broadsided a car driven by Susan Gutweller of Oakville at a downtown intersection. The 47-year-old woman died the next day.
Little left town shortly after the accident but had agreed to return.
Whitlock back after suspension agrees to give up radio show
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jason Whitlock's sports column reappeared in the Kansas City Star yesterday without mention of the two-week suspension he served for an incident during a Chiefs-Patriots game in Foxboro, Mass.
the Chiefs needed was a fresh start after Monday night's 20-13 loss to Pittsburgh had them 4-3.
Whitlock made no mention of the suspension in his column, which focused on Chiefs coach Marty Schottenheimer's weekly meeting with the media. Whitlock took Schottenheim to task for saying that all
"The Chiefs just need to forget about the first seven weeks of the season," wrote Whitlock in paraphrasing Schottenheimer, "forget that their offense can't score when it needs to, forget that their defense can't stop the run when it has to, forget that their special teams have been a disaster, forget all the stupid penalties, forget the dumb decisions, forget that the AFC

Whitlock's column appeared the Monday after the Patriots game Oct. 11, but not again until yesterday. Rick Vacek, assistant managing editor/sports, announced the suspension later in the week and said the Star was reviewing Whitlock's situation.
"Our examination of the matter is complete, and we are looking forward to Jason's column being back in the Star." Vacek said Tuesday.
Whitlock, 31, was suspended after an incident in the press box when Patriots fans began taunting visiting media during New England's 40-10 victory against the Chiefs. Security personnel became involved after Whitlock held up hand-lettered signs for the fans to see, one of which was insulting to the Patriots and quarterback Drew Bledsoe.
The Star, in announcing the suspension, also said Whitlock had agreed to give up his weekly radio show.
"I don't want to talk about my suspension." Whitlock said Tuesday. "I want to come back and do what I've always done. I don't think my writing style is going to change.
"As far as my suspension goes, it was an unfortunate incident. I'm putting it behind me and going back to doing what I like to do." Whitlock said.

OU quarterback thrown into starting position
NORMAN, Okla. — What Jake Sills lacks in experience, he more than makes up for in confidence. He hopes the latter far outweighs the former when he lines up Saturday against Iowa State.
Sills, a redshirt freshman, is expected to play quarterback this week for Oklahoma. He would be the fourth player to start there for the Sooners, who are 2-5 and in the midst of a five-game losing streak.
After Eric Moore got hurt last week against Oklahoma State, Sills came off the bench and played the final three quarters. He threw for 120 yards, including a touchdown, but an interception and two fumbles led to 21 points in a 41-26 OSU victory.
"I'm really looking forward to going in there and proving I'm a good quarterback and that I won't make those mistakes again," he said.
"I feel like I'm good enough right
now, but going into this game with Oklahoma State under my belt, a tough game, I think I can do really well, and I want to prove a lot of things to a lot of people."
Sills arrived in Norman last year from Garden City, Kan. His brother, Luke, played at Kansas but discouraged Jake from doing the same
because he didn't enjoy his time there. A visit to Kansas State didn't sit well with Sills, but he liked what he saw when he visited
Q
Oklahoma and coach John Blake
Sills originally thought he would have to walk on at Oklahoma, but a scholarship became available a couple weeks before the signing day. As recently as last week, Sills was referred to in the media as a walk-on.
"When people call you a walk-on, it's kind of antagonizing, and you want to go out and show you not a walk-on," he said. "Walk-on is one of
the lowest names in the book you can be called as a plaver."
Sills came down with mononucleosis this spring, shortly after he was promoted from the scout team. He played a mop-up role in Oklahoma's opener against North Texas, throwing a touchdown pass but came down with mono again a short time later.
As a result, his only playing time came as a holder on field goals and extra points. But after the Sooners lost to Missouri on Oct. 17, with Brandon Daniels struggling and backup Patrick Fletcher injured, the coaches told Sills he might get to play against Oklahoma State.
"They told me I needed to clear it with a doctor, and I was like. I'm not even going to ask a doctor. This is my chance to play," said Sills. "So I just told them I was ready."
He ran the second-team offense all week, then got put into the game when Moore suffered a concussion in the final minute of the first quarter. Many of Oklahoma's 19 penalties
"They really hadn't planned on me going in, so they really didn't tell me I needed one," he said. "I probably should have got one on my own, but I didn't really do it. So it was probably my fault."
came on offense, including several false starts. The coaches attributed that in part to Sills not being vocal enough when he was calling signals.
Moore is doubtful for Saturday. Sills has been told he will probably get the start. If he does, Sillis will be sure to remember a mouthpiece that fits. He doesn't have to worry about bringing his confidence.
Sills says he was hindered by not having a fitted mouthpiece.
"So when I was talking, my mouthpiece kept popping in and out, and they couldn't hear me very clear," he said.
"I hope I can come in here against Iowa State and do my thing and prove that I can play, and hopefully carry it on over to next year," he said.

Opponents come from contrasting backgrounds
By Lew Ferguson
Associated Press Writer
TOPEKA - Michael Tom Sawyer has risen above family struggles and become the Democratic nominee for governor of Kansas.
His life offers a sharp contrast to incumbent Gov. Bill Graves', the Republican seeking re-election, life of relative ease.
Sawyer's father could not work for an long period of time because of injuries, plunging the family into poverty. As a first grader in Omaha, Neb., Sawyer took mayonnaise sandwiches to school.
"I think they were supposed to be cheese sandwiches, but we were too poor for the cheese," he said. "I still don't like mayonnaise to this day."
The tough times taught him frugality and a work ethic, Sawyer said. At age 5, he opened his own store in his room at home.
"I started with Halloween candy, then bought candy bars and resold them," he said.
Sawyer, 40, was born in Wichita but attended high school in Omaha. He attended Wichita State University, earning a business degree in 1984. Sawyer worked for the Sedgwick County clerk's office while going to college.
That experience got Sawyer into politics. He lost a race for county treasurer in 1984, but was appointed county clerk the next year. He was elected to the Kansas House of Representatives in 1986 and has been re-elected five times.
Graves spent his childhood in Salina. His father co-founded the state's biggest independent trucking company, Graves Truck Lines. Graves went through school in Salina and graduated from Kansas Wesleyan University in 1975 with a business degree.
Graves was in graduate school at the University of Kansas, working toward an MBA and headed toward a career running the truck company when it was sold by the family in 1979.
A wealthy young man without a job at 26. Graves turned to politics by working in the secretary of state's office. He was elected to the office in 1986 and held it for two terms. He was elected governor in 1994.
Graves considers his background very middle class.
"The Graves family success probably was not realized until the late 1960s or early '70s," he said.

Election to affect special interests of the University
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Despite forecasts of low voter turnout, the Nov. 3 election will give Lawrence and the University of Kansas another opportunity to affect public policy
Kyle Ramsey Campaigns are intensifying as the mid-term election approaches.
the mid-term election approaches, with candidates trying to convey their positions on issues ranging from education funding to social issues. The University has a special interest in several issues on the state and federal level.
Education Funding
Jon Josserand, government liaison for the University, said budget issues were monitored closely. Dramatic shifts in Congress or the State Legislature, which are not expected this year, can change the amount of funding the University will receive.
The University recently sent its budget request for fiscal year 2000 to Gov. Bill Graves for review. The governor examines the University's request and presents his comprehensive budget proposal to the Legislature in January. Graves is running for re-election this year against Democratic challenger Rep. Tom Sawyer.
The key element of this year's KU budget request is a faculty salary initiative that would increase salaries by 7.6 percent in each of the next three years. Josserand said it was important to bring KU salaries up to par with those at peer universities.
The Board of Regents also has emphasized the importance of this initiative as a way of preventing teachers from leaving Kansas universities for higher salaries elsewhere. Salaries at the University are at 89.1 percent of the level of salaries at peer universities, Josserand said.
The University has requested an increase of 3.4 percent for the portion of the budget not related to salaries, called "other operating expenses." One percent of the increase would be dedicated to the KU libraries.
Bill Crowe, vice chancellor of information services, said increased library funding was a basic issue of investment in the state's future. He said people were in an information age where the costs of information have risen far faster than increases in available funds.
Research Funding
Josserand said the University was seeking to improve its research infrastructure and obtain additional federal grants for research.
Bob Barnhill, vice chancellor for research, said he would try to educate legislators about important research at the University to increase its share of grants.
"In the past, we didn't get as much funding for research as other states, but we're seeing that turn around," Barnhill said.
He said additional funding would allow the University to provide more undergraduate participation in research as well.
International Issues
Political policies have a big impact on foreign students and faculty at the University. Work visa rules, monetary policy and tuition changes made an impact on the University and state in a big way, said Joe Potts, director of international student services.
He said Congress had recently made some beneficial changes that he hoped would continue.
For instance, Congress almost doubled the number of work visas available for nonimmigrants to 115,000. Potts said this helped fill a need in scientific, technical and business areas where there were not enough qualified workers for academic positions.
Potts said he wanted the state to hold the line on increases for non-resident tuition to make study at the University less prohibitive for foreign students. He said the economic impact and cultural benefits of having foreign students at the University should be considered.
Financial Aid
Korb Maxwell, president of the student legislative awareness board, said candidates should address their plans for financial aid.
He said recent federal legislation that lowered the interest rate on student loans and increased the limit on grants was important and helpful.
Maxwell said students would be watching to see that the money for the authorized grant increases was appropriated.
Christine Crenshaw, director of student financial aid for the Board of Regents,said she had proposed a $1 million increase in state grants for students in need.She said it was good public policy to give lower income students who met admissions standards a chance at higher education.
Gov. Graves and the Legislature would decide on Crenshaw's request and generally had been supportive, she said. Other In
Other Issues
The student legislative awareness board is advocating other issues such as improved University participation in a national database for campus crime reporting and continued affirmative action programs.
On the state level, Maxwell said Kansas should stop placing more education expenses on students through tuition hikes.
He said students at Regents universities were paying about 38 percent of the cost of higher education. Traditionally,the state paid 75 percent of the cost,with students paying 25 percent.
With skyrocketing costs for capital improvements and libraries, Maxwell said the state needed to boost spending at a faster rate.
"To maintain educational quality, the increases haven't been enough." Maxwell said.
In other state issues, Maxwell said he agreed with the increases in grants proposed by Crenshaw. He said the student legislative awareness board also was pushing for a citywide bus system and a state-sponsored savings plan that would provide tax incentives for families to save for college.

Jim Ryun looks to focus on both state national issues
By Sarah Hale
A former Olympic athlete and world-record holder, and University of Kansas track star Jim Ryun knows what it is like to be in the public spotlight.
Kansan staff writer.
Congressman Ryun is running for reelection as Kansas' 2nd District Congressional Representative, and much of his attention is focused on the positive messages sent out by role models.
Ryun said he supported aid to America's children in a
variety of forms. He said one way to do this was to promote a good quality of education and return federal money to the states for them to spend.
"In Kansas, there is up to $8.5 million which could be used in education," Ryun said. "Whether this is in the classroom.
PETER MCCALLY
for computers or to help increase teacher's salaries; the states on a local level know the best way to spend the money"
Ryun
Since his success at the 1968 Olympics, Ryun has married and had four children. He has been married to his wife, Anne, for 29 years.
For more information about candidate Jim Ryan, see his campaign Web site at www.ryun.net or call his headquarters at (785)273-8901.
"I like that Jim Ryun is interested in national issues as well as down home issues associated with everyday life," said Casey Connealy, KU Republicans secretary.
The other chief issues that are part of Ryun's platform include social security and military defense.
He said he was committed to preserving the benefits and urges Congress to stop using the Social Security Trust Fund to balance the budget.
"We need to develop a system to protect us, mainly a missile-defense system," he said. "We're an arm's length away from countries with long-range missile power; such as North Korea."
Ryun also endorses university-financed research — specifically Kansas State University's work with food safety to help agriculture.
With two army posts, Leavenworth and Fort Riley, as part of the 2nd District, Ryun also is concerned with military rights and field training.
Jim Clark zeros in on education
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
At the 1968 Olympics, distance runner Jim Ryun took second place in the 1,500-meter run.
Thirty years later, Jim Clark, Kansas' Second District Congressional Representative candidate, is hoping that Ryun will come in second again, this time in a political race.
Clark, a native Kansan and 1975 University of Kansas graduate, said he decided to run for Congress
I am so proud of you. I will always remember you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you. I will always love you. I will always forgive you.

because he felt Ryun was too extreme.
"There are a lot of people who have wanted
Clark
to take Congressman Ryun to task," Clark said. "Since no one was prepared to take him on, I decided I would."
Clark was raised in Topeka before his family moved to California. He entered the Navy in 1966 and fought in the Vietnam War from 1967 to 1968.
Since then, Clark married his wife Terry and had one child, Jeff. Clark has worked in advertising and marketing companies, including an ad agency in London where he handled Fortune 500 companies such as Apple Computer.
He said his personal experiences helped him form positions on his platform's three most important issues: health care, education and farm economy.
Clark said his ideas about education affect the kindergarten through college graduate levels. He said he wanted to make it easier for
students to obtain a higher degree.
He said he was committed to spending more money to aid university research and that he wanted to make it easier for international students or teachers to visit American universities.
"The more we interact with the world, the more we'll understand other people." he said.
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said money affected how Clark ran his campaign.
"Clark has very little money, so it's difficult for him to mount a campaign on television or on the radio," Cigler said. "He's really tried to make international issues more important in the race."

Snowbarger focuses on self, trust
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
With the latest developments in Washington concerning President Bill Clinton, the public's trust in politicians has appeared to decrease—at least that is what one Kansas Congressman thinks.
Congressman Vince Snowbarger, who is running for re-election as Kansas' 3rd District Congressional Representative, has made restoring faith in America's government one of his main issues.
"Restoring the public's trust in the government is very difficult to do considering the events each day," Snowbarger said. "When I campaign, I tell people about me, what I'd do and what I have done the past two years."
Forfouryears, Snowbargers served as Majority Leader of the Kansas House of Representatives. He also represented the 26th district, Olathe, in the Kansas legislature for 12 years.
Snowbarger and his wife, Carolyn, have two sons.
Besides restoring the government's integrity, Snowbarger's major issues include tax reform and reduction, and preserving social security and Medicare.
During his 1996 campaign, Snowbarger supported a flat tax rate. Since then, he has helped support a tax program that allows
C. J. M. B. R. E.
Snowbaraer
people to choose between the current code or a
flat tax.
Snowbarger said reducing the capital gains tax is applicable for all investors.
Snowbargeralso supportsbudgetingfederal money toward university-financed research and for grants.
"Broadly, supporting university research depends on what kind of research it is doing," he said. "There are some programs that the federal government may be able to handle better collectively."
"I really endorse Congressman Snowbarger because he has upheld the Republican Party principles," said Tasha Keathley, Russell sophomore and member of KU Republicans.

Public safety key issue for Moore
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Dennis Moore, Kansas' 3rd District Congressional Representative candidate, chose to use a local bar as an example to back up one major issue on his platform.
Moore used The Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St., as an example of why concealed weapons in public places should be banned.
"Everyone has an interest in public safety," he said. "Suppose students are at The Wheel or at the stadium watching a football game when a fight breaks out. If someone had a gun with them you could see the potential for a problem."
Moore's concern with public safety and gun control are partially attributed to his former position as Johnson County District Attorney, which he held from 1977 to 1989.
Since then, Moore has worked as partner of his firm, Erker and Moore, L.L.C, and as a trustee to Johnson County Community College.
He decided to become involved in politics and run for Congress because of important issues facing America today.
"I believe that there is a group of people in this country who feel that they have answers to all the problems, not just for themselves, but for everybody else," he said. "This concerns me."
Besides public safety, two of Moore's chief concerns are social security and education.
He is a strong supporter of contributing 100 percent of the U.S. budget surplus to help save social security for the future.
Moore also supports university education and easing the restrictions placed on international students and teachers who want to
study at Kansas universities.
"I think that we need to develop relationships with people from around the world," he said.
Phil Stephenson, president of KU Young Democrats, said he supported Moore's desire to help social security.
"Personally,I'm a long way from retirement," Stephenson said. "It would be nice to be able to collect that in the future."

Gov. Graves wants to focus on education for campaign
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Governor Bill Graves has many issues he wants to work on. The main one is education.
Mike Matson, press secretary for the governor, said in the four years Graves has been in office, education has been a point

has been a point of focus.
Matson said every year Graves has been in office,the base budget for pupils has increased.
"This is very important because previously, the base budget for pupils had
M. S. MURRAY
Graves
remained static for a long time."
Matson also said the governor has succeeded in providing more money for post-secondary students.
"This is an interesting topic because there's been a lot of talk about Sawyer's STARS plan," he said of the program that would provide scholarships to qualifying Kansas high school graduates. "The governor responds two-fold. He agrees completely that the state has a role in helping students."
Where the two part in opinions, Matson said, is the method.
"Sawyer wants to decimate and eliminate the current job development programs we have," he said. "Sawyer's approach defeats its own purpose—his goal is to create more college graduates, but meanwhile, there will be less jobs."
Matson said Graves wants to come to the University, but his schedule won't allow for it right now. He said Graves has been to Kansas State University and Wichita State University.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science at the University, said the dialogue between the two could make programs like Sawyer's STARS program a reality.
"By Sawyer bringing this up, even though he won't win, we could still see this brought up in the legislative discussion,"he said.
Graves grew up working in his family's trucking business. He was first elected as governor in 1994. Before being elected governor, Graves served two terms as Kansas secretary of state from 1986 through 1994.

Sawyer wants state scholarship program
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Tom Sawyer, democratic candidate for governor, wants students to see STARS.
Implementation of STARS — Student Tuition Assistance Recognition Scholarship program — is one of Sawyer's goals. The plan would award Kansas students who have a B average or better through high school and who have parents who make a combined salary of less than $85,000 a year. The students would get up to $2,600 a year toward tuition to any Kansas university, community college, vocational school or one of 19 independent Kansas colleges.
Sawyer said the STARS program is based on

His plan would use $42 million of the estimated $60 million profit from the Kansas Lottery. That money now goes to economic development.

program," he said.
Sawyer
"Many companies move to Georgia because they know the work force is well trained."
Jack Martin, communications coordinator for Sawyer's campaign, said the economic development fund needed to be re-evaluated.
Sawyer would like to see a break on taxes across the board by getting rid of food sales tax.
"This would be a real tax relief," he said. "Lower classes complain that tax cuts don't trickle down to them. Everyone would feel this tax cut because everyone eats."
Sawyer hopes he has the right plan to beat Graves.
"Talking about real issues, things that have an effect on people, that is the key."

"It's supposed to be a country that you can come to," he said.
Some technology corporations set quotas on the number of international employees that they hire, he said, which he is opposed to, and favors capitalism and free enterprise.
Oyler does not support an increase
in university research as a whole. He said some university research was not legitimate.
Oyler said that if elected, he may consider creating a committee that would sort through research funding applications in order to find projects that would best use federal money.

"Like former President Ronald Reagan, I believe that America is a shining city on a hill and that the walls of that city have doors - doors which should be open to people of energy and talent," he said.

Feleciano aims to lower Kansas students' tuition costs
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
State Sen. Paul Feleciano, Jr., D-Wichita thinks his 26 years of experience in the Kansas legislature can lead him to Washington.
Feleciano is now the Minority Whip in the Kansas Senate and serves on the Financial Institutions and Insurance, Ways and Means, Commerce and Judiciary committees.
Feleciano was born and raised in New York City, where he received an associate's degree from New York Community College.
He has lived in Kansas since 1962 and was elected to the Kansas House of Representatives in 1972 before he was elected to the
Kansas Senate in 1976.
Feleciano said that he would support the allocation of as much Pell Grant money as possible if elected.
Feleciano said that financial aid was important because tuition at Regents schools was three times higher than it was 10 years ago.
"We're literally pricing our kids out of the schools," he said.
Feleciano supports easing restrictions on visas to attract international faculty and students.
He said that international faculty members have helped make the Kansas State Geological Survey one of the best in the world.
However, Feleciano opposes granting visas to international graduates who wish to work in the United States.
Feleciano is a member of the board of directors of the Kansas Technology Enterprise
Corporation and is a strong supporter of university research money

Attorney General re-election almost certain for Stovall
Associated Press
TOPEKA — Republican Carla Stovall seems a shoo-in to win a second term as attorney general, something Democratic challenger Dan Lykins concedes even if it will not keep him from trying to unseat her on Nov.3.
Stovall was elected in 1994 and is the first woman to be the state's chief law-enforcement official.
There are questions about whether she will run for governor in four years.
"I think about it because people talk
aboutit,butmygoalis to be re-elected attorney general," she said.
Lykins, a Topeka lawyer and political activist, said the odds are stacked against him. Of the 40 state attorneys general since 1861, only five have been Democrats.
IRELAND
"There has to be an Stovall unpollared Republi-
anpun can, and it's obvious she is very popular," said Lykins, a member of the Kansas Trial Lawyers Association.
Lykins is pinning his hopes on a coalition of Democrats, labor and anti-abortion advocates. Stovall supports abortion rights.
But Lykins said that he would not conduct a negative campaign and that voters would benefit no matter who wins.
"I'm not going to throw mud at Carla Stovall," he said. "I think she has done many good things, and she is trying to make the state a better place. The people of Kansas are in a win-win situation."
Likewise, Stovall is complimentary of Lykins, saying, "I think he's a fine lawyer for his area of expertise — personal injury and medical malpractice."
Lykins, whose campaign slogan is "People before Politics," said victims' rights would be a priority. At 14, a gang attacked Lykins in his town of

Atchison, costing him the vision in his right eye.
"I can feel for the victims,' he said. "They would have a friend in the attorney general's office.I think I can do it better than her because of my 26 years experience as a trial attorney."
Stovall is a former prosecutor in Crawford County and has argued cases before the Kansas Supreme Court and U.S. Supreme Court.
Stovall successfully argued before the U.S. Supreme Court for the state's Sexually Violent Predator Act.The nation's highest court upheld the law,after it was struck down by the Kansas Supreme Court.

Kubota, Jones focus on growth
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
One Douglas County Commission seat is up for grabs this fall, and the two candidates seeking to fill the position offer differing viewpoints about the commission's direction for the future.
The main issue that separates the two candidates is their philosophy regarding growth for Douglas County and Lawrence.
Brian Kubota, R-Lawrence, wants to continue the growth the area has experienced in recent years. But, he said, he wanted to help the commission plan better for the growth.
"We need to do some darn good planning, including physical land-use planning," Kubota said. "This will result in orderly growth."
Hesaid that the county and city had a good comprehensive plan, called Horizon 2020, but that a road map was needed to carry it out. He said he thought he could be instrumental in creating a road map.
Kubota said his career in land-plan engineering would serve him well on the commission. He founded an engineering company in 1978 that he sold in 1996.
Charles Jones, D-Lawrence, said the county could manage growth better by encouraging investment in the center of the city rather than on the perimeter of town.
He said the commission had encouraged growth in new areas by subsidizing new infrastructure. In turn, he said older parts of town suffer when businesses move or close.
If he is elected to the commission, Jones said he would advocate assessing total growth costs, which would then be paid completely by developers.
He said there would still be growth, but it would pay for itself and be at a more realistic pace. He said Lawrence was overbuilt for retail space at this time.
"Growth shouldn't leave blight in its path," Jones said.
Kubota and Jones agreed that other important issues facing the county were the completion of the South Lawrence Trafficway and the reduction of property taxes.
Jones favors completion of the trafficway and said he was working on a positive solution to the issue. Kubota said he favored the 31st Street plan that includes landscaping for noise, providing visual barriers and preparing a water runoff system.
Both candidates advocated holding down property-tax increases.
Kubota has lived in Lawrence with his wife Jonny since 1969. They have two adult children.
In addition to his work as a land use planner, Kubota said he had been an assistant University of Kansas professor of architecture and planning, and developer of a housing project called Villas at Alvamar.
Jones now works as an environmental consultant, property manager of a rental home near Central Park and writer.
Jones received his bachelor's degree from KU and a master's degree in public administration from Harvard University. He lives in Lawrence with his wife, Carol.

Democrats hopeful about new candidates
GOP controls most of state government
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
In Kansas, Republicans have historically dominated state politics. The tradition continues today, with Republicans controlling the governor's office, the State House and Senate, the entire six-member Congressional delegation and all but one statewide office.
Yet, for Democrats, hope springs eternal.
Brett Cott, executive director of the Kansas Democratic Party, said the party had put together an exciting slate of candidates to compete with Republicans this year.
"If you take a brief look at the Democratic Party and our fate, you might say we're trampled," Cott said. "But we are able to pick and choose our battles and win."
He said Kansans mostly identify themselves as independent thinkers, despite their party affiliation. Cott reminds people voters have at times given Democrats control of the Kansas Legislature and the governorship.
Democrats have not enjoyed control since 1992, the year Republicans began their current resurgence.
Two areas where Cott feels optimistic this year are in State House races,where he predicts a four-to six-seat gain for Democrats and in the 3rd U.S. Congressional District race.
Republican leaders say they will be the ones adding seats in the House and predict another
sweep in the U.S. House races.
The 3rd District, which includes Johnson Douglas, Miami and Wyandotte counties, will be competitive because Democratic candidate Dennis Moore is running a winning campaign. Cott said.
"This race is our most hopeful," Cott said. "Dennis has a professional, committed team of staff and volunteers, and we feel like we're going to win this race."
Cott said Democrats had almost captured the seat in 1996, receiving close to 50 percent of the vote. He hopes to persuade more Republicans and independents to vote for Moore this time.
Republicans are not conceding the contest and insist they have a winner in incumbent U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger.
Ward Cook, president of KU College Republicans, said Moore was a threat but said he had his work cut out for him in pulling off an upset.
"I can't see the 3rd District voting for a Democrat." Cook said.
Steve Abrams, chairman of the Kansas Republican Party, said,"Congressman Snowbarger has voted and continues to vote for those things people agree with. Ultimately, that's what it's going to come down to."
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said that times are not great for the Democratic Party but that Moore did have a chance, especially because of his fund-raising efforts.
"Raising $1 million almost by definition makes you competitive," Loomis said.
Loomis said $1 million is the amount Moore
plans on raising by the end of the campaign.
A bright spot for the Democrats is Kathleen Sebelius, the commissioner of insurance and the only statewide officeholder for the party, Loomis said.
He predicted that, barring a miracle, Sebelius would be re-elected handily. Loomis did not hold high hopes for other Democrats, in part due to the thriving state economy.
"They need some things going for them," Loomis said. "There are not many chinks in the Republican armor."
Loomis said Democrats are not mounting close challenges in other marquee races. Gov Bill Graves, U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback and U.S. Reps. Jerry Moran, Jim Ryun and Todd Tiahrt are all considered to have comfortable leads.
Cott said the issues that Democrats are emphasizing in this election are increasing the focus on education, lowering the sales tax on food, placing a moratorium on corporate hog farming and paying off state debt held in bonds.
Phil Stephenson, president of KU Young Democrats, said these are issues that affect people's daily lives.
He said that Democrats have made education their No.1 priority and that the party is running on issues close to home.
He said the party wants to change and reform government,but it doesn't want to do it in a drastic way that would have an adverse impact on people.
Abrams said the Republicans will continue running on their party's traditional themes of smaller government, lower taxes and high-

quality education. He said Republican candidates are also sensitive to the corporate hogfarm issue and will listen to the people in their districts for an equitable solution between business and community interests.
Cook said the recent Republican record on financial aid and student loan programs should appeal to students and the higher education community.
He said President Clinton had been taking credit for Republican ideas and efforts in this area and others.
According to the secretary of state's office in Topeka, registered Republicans number 662,920 while there are 426,199 registered Democrats. There are 393,473 independent voters. Three other parties recognized in Kansas — Libertarian, Reform and Taxpayers — have a combined registration of less than 11,200.

Annual K-State pranks missing
Teams' disparity diffuses rivalry
By Jodi M. Smith Kansas staff writer
There's no buzz on campus, no statues are adorned with the Powercat insignia and the water in the Chi Omega fountain is still crystal blue.
With only one day left before the University of Kansas vs. Kansas State University football game, nearly 7,000 tickets still are available for sale.
That fact leaves many wondering if the rivalry has become inferior to what is was in the past.

State's basketball team," said Chris Smith, Kansas State alumnus. Maybe
"I think the rivalry is there and always will be there," said Kansas offensive lineman and Topeka native Justin Glasgow. "No matter what kind of teams show up for the game, it's going to be a good one. No matter who's the supposed favorite."
Smith thinks the rivalry was bigger five years ago when the two teams were both struggling to define themselves.
"In the hearts and minds of people like me, who were around when the two teams were closely matched, it still is a big game," he said.
Kansas State has sold out the last three times the Jayhawks have traveled to Manhattan.
Attendance at these rivalry games tells a story in itself.
The University Daily Kansan is the student newspaper of the University of Kansas. The first copy is paid through the student activity fee. Additional copies of the Kansan are 25 cents.
The same cannot be said about Kansas.
Kansas came close to selling out two games in the '90s, 1994 and 1996, when 48,800 people attended.
But the last actual sellout was more than 20 years ago in 1975, when 50,538 people attended the event at the 50,200-capacity Memorial Stadium.
There is one glitch, though.
There is one given, though Kansas' Memorial Stadium holds nearly 10,000 more people than Kansas State's 42,000-capacity stadium.

What many Americans may not realize
There are many different stories surrounding the origins of Halloween. For those who practice the Wicca religion, Oct. 31 is called Samhain and marks the ending of the Celtic year.

Darcie Callahan, a graduate student who did her masters thesis about Wicca, said the purpose of the day was to remember the dead. She said that on that day the veil between the two worlds was considered the thinnest.
nere was excitement and fear at this time," she said. "It tended to be a scary time of year when people were afraid to go out doors."
Wicca is a pantheistic, experiential, nature-centered religion.
One story says that the reason Colts dressed up in costumes was to scare off any spirits who might try to possess the living. Trickor-treating is said to have originated with ninth century European Christian beggars who would travel from house to house asking for "soul cakes" on All Souls Day in
November.

The stories about Halloween are varied and don't always match. For example, All Souls Day is often called Al圣aints Day or All Hallows Day. Tim Miller, professor of religion, said that the holiday had pagan origins but became associated with the Christian All Hallows Day.
"As Christianity moved through Europe, it displaced people who had various native religions," he said.
Whatever Halloween was, one thing is clear — what we celebrate today is something uniquely American.

"When I was a child I loved Halloween, so I don't like to knock it because people don't celebrate it as Wiccans do," she said.
Jennifer Lillie, Parsons sophomore, said she thought Halloween had grown to a holiday embraced by both children and adults. She attributed this to the power of retail.
Students said their traditions ran toward the basic Halloween hijinks such as
"I work for Wal-Mart, and I notice they play it up a lot and it just gets bigger and bigger," Lillie said.

Watson Library closes after transformer fails
Watson Library shut its doors indefinitely at 4:30 p.m.yesterday because of a power outage.
The power loss occurred because the library's major transformer failed, said Provost David Shulenbur.
A blown transformer at 19th and Louisiana streets caused about half of campus buildings to lose power Wednesday afternoon, said Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations.
Although Shulenburger was unsure what caused the transformer to fail, he speculated that it could have failed because of strain after Wednesday's power failure.
Shulenburger said that he was not sure how long Watson Library would remain closed.
"All we know is that we need a new transformer," Shulenburger said. He said it would not be possible to reopen the library until the transformer was replaced.
All other University of Kansas libraries will remain open during their regular hours.
Natural light was not an option, Shu-lenburger said, because the stacks did not have windows to allow light inside the library.

Northwestern professor to speak about rights
Derrick Darby, assistant professor of philosophy at Northwestern University, will speak about moral rights at 3:30 p.m. today in 4035 Wescoe Hall. His speech is titled "Are Worlds Without Rights Morally Impoverished?"
Rex Martin, University of Kansas professor of philosophy, said Darby would examine moral rights and the best way to think about human rights.
Martin said some people thought human rights were innate, and others thought an organized society was necessary for human rights to become an issue.
Martin said Darby's speech was based on a paper that opposed a view expressed by another well-known political philosopher, Joel Seinberg.
Darby's research areas included ethics, politics and legal philosophy with a special interest in rights, said Anthony Genova, chair of the KU department of philosophy.
The lecture is sponsored by the KU department of philosophy.

KU ROTC places first in tri-state competition
The rivalry between the University of Kansas and Kansas State University extends beyond Division I athletic events.
Last weekend, KU ROTC met the Kansas State squad and six other teams in the Tri-State Ranger Challenge, an annual competition held near Des Moines, Iowa.
The team took first in the competition. Kansas State placed last out of the eight universities that competed from Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa.
"Our success came as a result of attitude and training," he said.
David Stanley, KU ROTC member, took first in the two-mile run. Stanley, O'Fallon, Ill., junior, said that while the team only won one event, orienteering, the team showed mental toughness and placed in the top three in the rest of the events.
Lt. Colonel Anthony Gasbarre, commanding officer for the KU ROTC program, said that this year's team was more successful than in past years because the members were in better shape.
"The program has been more intense than in years past, because they've been better trained and are more fit," he said. "I'm just extremely happy and proud of them."

Pro-gambling groups hit fund raising jackpot
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The gambling industry has raised about 10 times as much money as gambling opponents in an effort to approve a ballot measure that would allow boats in moats.
The pro-gambling group Missourians for Fairness & Jobs has raised $9.9 million almost entirely from riverboat casino companies, according to the state Ethics Commission financial disclosure reports made public this week
Political groups in Kansas City and St. Louis received more than $109,000 from the casino industry for voter education efforts aimed at getting Amendment 9 approved Tuesday.
Amendment 9 asks voters to decide whether games of chance such as slot machines should be allowed aboard riverboats that float in artificial basins fed by river water from the Missouri and Mississippi rivers.
Authorities connect Illinois church bombs
DANVILLE, III. — One bomb was hid in a cooler outside a church and designed to explode when moved. Another, also placed outside a church, was controlled by a timer. A third went off in a carage.
All were the work of Richard Shotts, 39, of Danville, federal and local authorities concluded Wednesday.
The two church bombings killed one person and injured 34. Shotts died in the explosion in his garage May 28 as authorities were on their way to question him.
Investigators, who interviewed more than 1,500 people and analyzed 1,000 pieces of evidence, found more than 60 links between the three bombs. Shotts' motive remains a mystery.
Au pair's parents face questions about account
BOSTON — The parents of the British au pair convicted of killing a baby in her care are being investigated by U.S. and British authorities about discrepancies at least $340,000 in her legal defense fund, the Boston Herald reported today.
The FBI was reportedly asked by the British Embassy to aid authorities in Cheshire County, which includes Woodward's home town of Elton, England. Police in Cheshire County said today that their investigation focused on allegations relating to the existence and use of a forged invoice.
The FBI and police in Cheshire County, England, are examining bills submitted for reimbursement by Susan and Gary Woodward to the fund set up to aid their daughter Louise.
Woodward, 20, returned to Britain in

They also will offer jet service to Gulfport, Miss., near Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott's hometown, and Duluth, Minn., which is represented by the House Transportation Committee's senior Democrat, Jim Oberst.
In recent days, Daschie and his assistant minority leader, Sen. Byron Dorgan, have announced new flights by United Airlines into the Dakota. Both senators are up for reelection.

But United officials acknowledged coordinating announcements of the new Dakotas routes with Daschle and Dorgan.

Hurricane Mitch now just a tropical storm
LA LIMA, Honduras — Hurricane Mitch wore itself out pounding the Honduran coast and was downgraded to a tropical storm yesterday. But floodwaters continued to rise, cutting off communities from food, water and medicine.
Already, at least 32 people have dled, and a yacht with 31 people aboard was missing off the Nicaraguan-Honduran border. A U.S. Coast Guard airplane was searching for the boat yesterday.
Mitch, which on Tuesday ranked among the century's most powerful storms, moved slightly inland of the Honduran coastline Thursday and lost much of its punch.
The storm had hardly moved since its peak, and yesterday was tearing into the same coastline and tourist islands it had been lashing for three days.
At 4 p.m. EST, sustained winds were only 60 mph, down from 180 mph early Tuesday.

Present-day Halloween reflects past

dressing up, trick-or-treating and going to parties. For many people, trick-or-treating ends after junior-high and costumes continue through adulthood.
"People like dressing up," said Matt Moydell, Olathe sophomore. "It's kind of an excuse to let your will to be weird come out."
"Traditionally, it's been more somber than a lot of parties and civil celebrations that go on," Callahan said.
Students unfamiliar with Wica may think Wiccan Halloween celebrations are like something out of Hollywood: cauldrons, broomsticks and black cats. In reality, Callahan said different groups met to stand in a circle and read. She said chanting and raising of energy often were performed.
Misconceptions of Wicca and Halloween in general have caused some religious groups to boycott the holiday, saying it is linked with Satan. Miller said this belief was because of a confusion of paganism with evil.
"Christianity demonized it, although it's not an evil holiday," he said.
He said some absolutist Christians didn't want any other religions to exist and thus wouldn't like any pagan holiday. He said even in Lawrence he had heard of a group of junior high students that was trying to convince fellow students not to go trick-or-treating.
Alternate viewpoints do exist, but, despite opposition, chances are Hallowen will continue. After all, it's the only day of the year people can put Frankenstein masks and still appear normal.

Sunflower Showdown toned down
Continued from page 1A
Still. Big 12 Conference schools must give visiting schools 4,000 tickets. Kansas State sold its 4,000 by the end of September and requested and received 1,000 more. K-State fans now are being referred to the Kansas ticket office.
Last weekend's 33-17 victory against the then 17th-ranked Colorado spurred fans to purchase about 1,000 more tickets Monday, said associate athletics director Richard Konzem
One KU student said it's a lack of support in Lawrence, not in Manhattan, that has caused the rivalry to fizzle.
"Down there, the whole community gets involved," said Bill Hill, Topeka senior.
Hill attended Kansas State his freshman year in college.
"At KU, football doesn't really have a place in Lawrence," he said. "It's not even comparable."
Former Kansas State football player Erick Harper said the lack of Kansas fan support doesn't say anything about the rivalry with a Wildcat's perspective.
"I don't think it's lost its flare," Harper said. "I know from our fans perspective, it's still one of the biggest games, if not the biggest game, of the year."
For those that will be playing Saturday, no sentiment rinks truer.
"This game is probably the biggest, if not the most important game, of my college career." Glasgow said.
So maybe the rivalry hasn't fizzled out, but even Harper agrees that it is diminishing.
"Maybe a little bit, but nothing to where I sense that the rivalry is going to fade away," he said. "Not even close to that. As long as you've got alumni that are from the state of Kansas, that rivalry will always be there."
Fraternities look past rivalry to support charitable cause
Kansan staff writer
By Sarah Hale
The negative aspects of the University of Kansas and Kansas State University rivalry, such as pranks and unsportsmanlike attitudes, often overshadow the positive parts of the match-up.
One example of this is two fraternity chapters, one from each university, working together to raise money for leukemia research.
Members from both chapters of the
Phi Gamma Delta Fraternity will run along Highway 24 today from Manhattan to Lawrence to bring a football game ball to Memorial Stadium.
The 70-mile relay-style run marks the 25th annual Fiji Run for Leukemia.
"It's a great opportunity for our fraternities to come over a rivalry and support a worthy cause," said Mark Fleske, KU Phi Gamma Delta philanthropy chair.
Fleske said that the chapter members have been collecting donations
After the first quarter of tomorrow's football game, fraternity members will present a check to the society. Last year, they donated $19.95.
Each university is expecting to raise $14,000. Fleske said.
During the last 24 years, chapter members have donated more than $320,000 for leukemia research, which makes them Kansas' largest contributor.

Democrats advocated in speech
Ru Chad Rattos
Kansan staff writer
He said Republicans were trying to override the voice of the American people who had elected Bill Clinton.
"It's a scary proposition that the president has to answer questions because he stained a $39 dress from the Gap," Moore said.
Living up to his outspoken reputation, film producer Michael Moore did not mince words as he harshly criticized congressional Republicans at a political rally held last night at Douglas County Democratic Headquarters. Sivith and New Hammett streets
A primary reason Moore decided to get involved in this year's elections was because of the legal inquiry of President Bill Clinton.
Moore went on to issue a blanket plea for Americans to vote a straight Democratic ticket, even though Moore
admitted he did not vote for Clinton in his second campaign.
He said voters should fight cynicism and apathy to ensure Democratic victories that would send a message to Republicans.
He did endorse Dennis Moore, D-Lenexa, against U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Olathe. The two Moores are not related, and Dennis Moore did not attend the rally.
"This is the time you can really stick it to them." Moore said.
After his public speech, Moore said he did not think voters should listen to people from outside their district. But in this case, he wanted to speak in broad terms to draw attention to issues like the environment, campaign finance and the economy.
About 65 people attended the event including high school and college students.
Jim Kelly, Olathe sophomore, said he
found Moore to be entertaining and open minded.
"He looks at things from a different perspective." Kelly said.
Kelly said Moore was an advocate for workers because he has spoken out in the past against the irresponsibility of big corporations. Kelly is president of International Association of Students in Business and Economics.
Sarah Donegan, Olathe junior and KU Young Democrat, said she agreed with Moore's position to vote Democratic in retribution to Republicans investigating Clinton. She also supported Dennis Moore for his views on the environment, education and gun control.
Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition organizer Wes Beal attended the event to show support for Dennis Moore's position on GTAC. Beal said Dennis Moore supported GTAC's right to be unionized as state employees.
Eight car tires slashed in fraternity parking lot

Police only had processed reports of seven slashings, but a fraternity member who was one of the victims said that there might have been as many as
Police said that at least five of the cars belonged to KU students.
Witnesses standing across 15th Street at the Jayhawker Towers told police that they had seen three men fleeing west down 15th Street.
"They said the three men appeared to be intoxicated and running with some difficulty," said Lawrence Police Srt. George Wheeler.
Cary Smalley, Leawood sophomore, said he wasn't sure why his house was a target but that it might have been someone angry at the fraternity.
"It was kind of weird," he said. "They mostly only sliced the tires of cars parked in the front, and most of those weren't ours."
He said that only two of the cars with slashed tires belonged to fraternity members.
Smalley said that someone had been shooting paint balls at the house from the Jayhawker Towers three or four hours before the slashings.
Smalley said that police were investigating the paint ball incident in connection to the slashings, but Wheeler said he could not confirm the incidents were being investigated together.

Tearing down goal posts shows spirit but creates problems for lake
It was nice to see that students have enthusiasm for Kansas football, even if it was expressed by destroying property.
However, the enthusiasm was costly, and fans should not have dumped the goal posts they tore down Saturday in Potter's Lake.
Students stormed the field Saturday at Memorial Stadium after Kansas defeated the No. 17 ranked Colorado Buffaloes, 33-17. The win was huge for Kansas, which had not beaten a ranked opponent in three years and had not won a Big 12 Conference game this season.
Odd as it seems, tearing down the goal posts was the fans way of saying they were proud of the football team.
Kansas players and coaches walking
It cost $6,000 to replace the goal posts that were torn down after Saturday's game.
off the field appreciated the show of support. In the locker room, many players expressed a thrill in seeing students see so excited about football.
The victory was the biggest of the year so far for Kansas, and perhaps its biggest in the past three seasons. Kansas, which now has a 3-5 overall record, has not had a winning season in three years. So it was wonderful to see fans get excited about a football game.
But tearing down the goal posts was costly for the Kansas Athletic Department, which must pay $6,000 to replace the posts.
Tearing out goal posts is common in college football, but it is often reserved for rivalries and games when an unranked team defeats a top 10 team.
Colorado is not a top-10 team, and although they are in the same conference as Kansas, Colorado has never been a real rival. Kansas State and Missouri are considered the Jayhawks true rivals.
If Kansas can defeat the Wildcats this weekend, then the goal posts might deserve to come down.
And if fans are going to tear down goal posts, then fans should not dump them in Potter Lake. It pollutes the Lake and difficult for University workers to retrieve the posts.

Be safe, scary on All Hallow's Eve
Tomorrow is going to be a busy day in Lawrence. Not only will the Jayhawks be playing K-State, but also it will be a holiday. Halloween is upon us. Between tailgate parties, costume parties and the usual weekend house parties, there will be no shortage of ways to have fun.
However, that means there also will be no shortage of ways to get into serious trouble. The mixture of alcohol, costumes and small children in the streets can lead to accidents.
The first, most obvious, Halloween safety tip is to avoid drinking and driving. Students who plan to attend parties should make arrangements to stay with their host, get a ride home with a sober

It is best to avoid driving at all on Halloween night. Those students who do choose to drive should pay special attention in residential neighborhoods.

Excess Halloween candy can be dangerously vocal
Perspective
Buying Halloween candy ahead of time is a bad idea — at least for me. I always end up eating it right after I
bring it back to my do in my room, it's as good as eaten.
Carrie Johnson
opinion@kansan.com
A. J. K.
I learned that the hard way last year. I got several packages of full-size Twix bars. I had the candy bars sitting in a cute little Halloween bucket, ready to be given out to ghosts and goblins. The candy was gone in a few days. I bought more to replace it. The replacement candy soon was gone, too.
I made a last-minute trip to the store to replace those on Halloween afternoon. That evening, the trick-or-treaters knocked on my door and found me with chocolate, caramel and cookie crumbs on my face. Instead of Twix, I had to give them packets of soy sauce and hot mustard that I had from Chinese take-out the day before. I never thought a little kid in a Power Rangers costume would know so many four-letter words.
This year I tried to put it off. I steered clear of the candy section as long as I could. When I finally just had to get the candy, I decided that this year I would give out some kind of candy that I didn't like. After browsing the candy aisle of the grocery store, I realized that there just weren't many kinds of candy that I didn't like.
I like coconut bars, malted milk balls, peanut butter taffy all the freak candies that half the population won't touch. I like every candy bar in existence, every kind of M&M and every kind of confection on a stick.
Eventually, I resorted to looking at each kind of candy on the aisle and interrogating it.
"If I bought you, would you force me to eat you during a late-night cram session?"
"Yes!" moaned Mr. Goodbar.
"If I bought you, would you climb onto my bed during the night, strip off your own wrapper and hop into my mouth without even waking me un?"
"Yes!" shrieked Baby Ruth.
I finally decided on the Raisinettes. I'm not a big fan of raisins, and I was confident that I wouldn't eat too many of them before Halloween. I placed a couple of big bags in my shopping basket and started to leave the aisle.
"Pssst. Over here."
"Yes!" cried the Three Musketeers.
"If I bought you, would you stare at me from the shelf until I couldn't take it any longer and make me gorge myself on your smooth, chocolatey goodness?"
I turned around. It was the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.
"Oh no," I said. "I'm not going to buy you! You'll make me eat the entire bag of you in one night!"
"No! You're full of fat and sugar!" I cried.
"No! You're full of fat and sugar!" I cried.
"But Carrie, I'm so scrumptious!" it countered.
Those little peanut butter cups can be pretty persuasive when they really try.
I bought two bags of them in addition to the Raisinettes. I just hope I don't eat them all before Saturday night, but I probably will.
And if you're planning to trick-or-treat at my door, I hope you like ketchup packets and Taco Bell hot sauce.

"Okay, other than any kind of a tan, what can I do to improve these meager features of mine?" I asked.
"You should color your hair purple," another friend told me.
As any immediate benefits of such a venture failed to present themselves, I asked why.
"Because it would look cool," my friend said. "Not the whole thing, just a few highlights to help you stand out amongst the masses."
"You mean all of those people with banana-yellow highlights in their hair?"
"Yeah," my friend continued. "Nobody's really done purple yet. Not to the extent that it could be exploited."
"So," I said. "Why don't you color your hair purple then?"
"My skin's too tan."
That sounded logical. With my Casper complexion, adding streaks of brittle, plum-stained hair just seems natural.

Yes, for a short while, I decided to grow facial hair in an attempt to look my age. You see, I have the face of a 12-year-old boy. Although it may be making millions for Leonardo DiCaprio, the look doesn't seem to hold the same result for me.
Let's face it. Most of us have passed the major changing points in our lives. Eyeglasses have been replaced by contacts. We're as tall as we're going to be, and most of us can't afford to overhaul our wardrobes.
Mostly, though, I just wanted to do something different with myself. Look older, look sinister, I don't know — just look different. I guess we all get sick of having the same face stare back at us when we brush our teeth in the morning, no matter how handsome.
All that's left is messing with our hair and fiddling with eye color. Add a few earrings, maybe some tattoos, and watch the fun at your next family reunion.
And why not? This is college, right? Pretty soon, we'll all have to get real jobs and wear suits and specified T-shirts on casual days. I guess I'd rather talk to somebody who doesn't remember their real hair color instead of people who color-coordinate for the proper business effect.
I don't think I'll go for purple, though. Maybe burn amber would better suit me.

KU alumna contributes her papers to University
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
An influential leader of higher education and a woman who opened doors with her hard work has donated her papers to the University of Kansas. her alma mater.
Martha Peterson became University Dean of Women in 1952 and began her career in the administration of higher education.
An exhibit entitled The Trail-Blazing Leadership of Martha Peterson in the Kansas Collection of the Spencer Research Library will highlight Peterson's achievements until the papers become a regular part of the collection.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway,
former Kansas senator Nancy
Kassebaum Baker, KU alumni,
students and friends attended a
reception to open the exhibit at 4
n.m. vesterday.
"It's a great pleasure for the University of Kansas to be able to honor one of its most distinguished daughters." Hemenway told a crowd of about 75 at the reception.
Among the items in Peterson's collection was a newspaper article describing one of her major accomplishments at the University: The integration of women's residence halls.
In 1951, Peterson said, Chancellor Deane Malott took a proposal to the Board of Regents to require all female freshmen to live in residence halls. The Board of Regents passed the policy, which did not exclude African-American students previously barred from the halls.
Peterson reminded Malott that the policy would integrate the balls.
"I remember Chancellor Mallot saying, "I know that, but the Board of Regents doesn't know that," " she said.
Malott said it was her job to implement the integration without a fuss.
After her work at the University, Peterson became the dean of students at University of Wisconsin in 1963, the highest position a woman had held at the school. She became the president of Barnard College in 1967 and moved to the presidency of Beloit College in 1974. Pearson has 20 honorary degrees and was one of the first women to chair the American Council on Education.
Peterson said she never planned a step in her career and just took jobs that came along.
"I don't know how I got there," she said. "I suppose by working hard and by caring about students."
Senate's recreation task force gathers opinion, criticism
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Student Senate has formed a recreation task force to determine what University of Kansas students want in a recreational facility.
Some students see the task force's presentation as persuasive rather than informative.
Marlon Marshall, engineering senator and task force presenter, said that students agreed there was a problem with recreation on campus.
"Before Senate does anything, we want to get the student's voice and see what they want to do," he said.
Sara Zander, Topeka sophomore, saw the task force's presentation at a Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall meeting.

During the presentation, Allison McCallie, Nunemaker senator, wrote key words of the crowd's comments on a poster board. "Disgrace," "meat market," and "hours suck" were examples.
"I thought the presentation was underlyingly persuasive," she said. "It was like they were telling us that we should do something, not that they were just being informative."
A survey was handed out that
*Baylor's fee is included in students' general fees. Jason Benavides/KANSAN
asked what solution students preferred: an increase in student fees by $20 to $25 that would result in additions to Robinson Center, an increase in student fees by $30 to $35 that would result in a new, medium-sized recreation center, or an increase in fees of $40 to $45 that would result in a new, larger recreation center.
Missing from the survey was an option for the system to remain unchanged. That option has been added to the survey.
Trey Toy, recreation task force member, said that it was hard to present the facts without seeming blased.
"The facts are so obvious that something needs to be done," he said. "It may seem that we're just presenting all bad things about recreation at KU. But it's just
because that's what there is."
Justin Hawkins, recreation task force member, said that last year's graduating seniors rated the quality of Robinson at 3.5 on a 10-point scale.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, said that the main purpose of the presentations was to get opinion. not to give opinion.
"The facts don't speak well for Robinson," he said. "But at the end of the presentation we say, 'Here is what we can do. What do you want us to do?' and we've gotten a lot of good suggestions."
Three years ago, a proposed new recreational facility was voted down by students. Kevin Yoder, student body president, said the initiative failed because students were not properly informed about the proposed center.
Housing rates up, low among Big 12
By Sarah Hale
Kanson staff writer
Despite a nearly 3 percent increase, the University of Kansas' housing costs are still among the lowest in the Big 12.
Department of Student Housing officials announced Wednesday the projected prices for the residence and scholarship halls for the 1999-2000 academic year.
Although the rates still will need to be approved by the Board of Regents in December, for now, the totals are similar to nationwide inflation trends.
The near 3 percent increase is parallel to rising prices in all areas, said Ken Stoner, director of the department of student housing.
"Inflationary pressures will always tend to drive the rates up somewhat," Stoner said. "We're pleased that we're holding them so low."
Students who live in a residence hall double-occupancy room will pay $3,941, a $109 increase from this year's price of $3,832. This year, rates increased $66.
"The prices don't really affect me because my parents pay," said Andreas Achleitner, Emporia freshman who lives in Templin
Hall. "I think the prices are kind of steep as it is. So I don't think they should raise them."
The scholarship hall rates will increase to $2,717. The total is $77 more than this year's $2,640 price.
Watkins and Miller scholarship halls will increase from $712 to $725 per year, prices that are lower because of a University trust fund.
"The increase is not that big of a deal," said Levi Chronister, Pittsburgh sophomore who lives in Stephenson Hall. "I think KU has a good price on housing rates overall, especially with the scholarship halls."
Stoner agreed that the University rates were lower than other institutions nationwide.
"All things considered, including college averages public and private, KU in the room and board area is one of the best bargains there is," Stoner said.
KU housing rates are $737 below the Big 12 average of $4,205 and $698 below other 4-year public universities' rate of $4,530.
Although the University has raised prices consistently 2 to 3 percent each year in the past, the KU rates were ranked 11th in the Big 12 totals this year.
The University of Colorado was the most expensive, which costs

Stoner said that in the past, Kansas, Kansas State and the University of Nebraska rates always have been within a hundred dollars.
Other rates, such as those assigned to single-room occupancy or non-dormitory campus living, also are expected to increase
For example, Jayhawker Towers,
Sunflower Apartments and Stouffer Place Apartments will increase between 1.9 and 3.2 percent next year.

Book studies special interest groups
KU professor looks at role media plays
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
With millions of dollars of special interest money flowing in Kansas and across the country, a University of Kansas professor has written a book that addresses the influence special interest groups have on public policy.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, co-wrote the book, The Sound of Money: How Political Interest Groups Get What They Want, with Brown University professor Darrell West. It was published this fall.
Loomis and West examined the issue of special interest groups and focused on cases such as health care reform, the Contract with
America and telecommunications reform. In each case, the authors documented the strong influence special interest groups exerted on legislation.
A key theme of the book is the increased effectiveness special interest groups are having on issues and campaigns because of their use of modern technology.
Loomis said media, such as television and newspapers, are used by special interest groups to tell stories that are easy for people to understand. In some cases, the public is urged to call political representatives and express a specific opinion.
"Instantaneous communication is important." Loomis said.
Several options outlined in the book for dealing with special interests range from doing nothing to increasing regulations.
giving candidates free air time on public airwaves are in order.
Loomis said he thought some regulations such as speeding up the financial disclosure process and
While special interest groups do not limit their attention to campaigns, the book is timely in light of the special interest groups that have focused their attention on local races such as the 3rd congressional district of Kansas.
In the 3rd district race between U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Olathe, and challenger Dennis Moore, D-Lenexa, campaign spending by outside groups has been a contentious issue.
The Snowbarger campaign claimed that labor unions from across the country have supplied tremendous backing to Moore.
Kevin Yowell, Snowburger campaign manager, estimated that unions would spend $1 million by the end of the election on Moore's behalf. He said that figure is in addition to another $250,000 that has been given directly to Moore's cam
paig by labor political action committees.
Yowell said the money had been spent on two television advertisements, two phone banks to support Moore, eight mailings and paid staff members who are working in the district.
Particularly troubling to Yowell were phone calls he said the union phone banks have been making to senior citizens that criticize Snowbarger's positions on issues such as Social Security.
Mark Nevins, a Moore representative, said that he did not know how much labor unions had spent independently of the Moore campaign but that Moore welcomed the support of working men and women.
"You have no control over independent expenditures," Nevins said.

Loomis agreed it was difficult to quantify independent expenditures and questioned whether the $1 mll-

lion was accurate.
He said the Republican National Committee had spent a great deal of money on Snowbarger's behalf. PACs also have poured large contributions into Snowbarger's campaign. Loomis said.
"The methods of special interest groups are very sophisticated," Loomis said.
Healthy diet possible with creativity
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Eating healthily can be tough for busy students, but dietitians said it is possible if they use a little imagination.
"If students are eating in the dorm or out on their own and running from place to place, nutrition gets left behind, but it doesn't have to be," said Robyn Stuewe, a registered licensed dietitian for the Midland Dairy Council.
Stuewe recommended a bagel with peanut butter, a banana or baby carrots as easy-to-carry snacks that students could throw into their backpacks on their way to class.
Before students start their day, dietitians said breakfast was the key to brainpower.
"Breakfast means 'break the fast' because you've gone without food for seven or eight hours," Stuwee said. "It gets your body going, and it will help you learn because you'll be more alert."
Ann Chapman, Watkins Memorial Health Center registered dietitian, suggested a smoothie with yogurt and
blended fruit or orange juice as alternatives to an entire breakfast.
Although Chi Dong, Tulsa, Okla., senior, eats a healthy breakfast, she said she neglected one food group.
"I don't get enough dairy products because I'm not a milk drinker," she said.
Chapman said milk was 70 percent water and helped keep people hydrated but said alternatives to milk for hydration were water, broth, soups, juices and decaffeinated sodas.
She said the food groups most neglected but most important were fruits and vegetables.
"You have to be more imaginative in working them in," she said. "For example, if pizza turns you on more than raw carrots, then add green pepper or some other vegetable to it."
She said one reason fruits and vegetables were neglected was because people were eating on the run.
The food pyramid
fats, oils and sweets eat sparingly
milk, yogurt, cheese, and fortified alternatives 2-3 servings
meat, poultry, eggs and nuts 2-3 servings
vegetables 3-5 servings
fruits 2-4 servings
bread, cereal, rice and pasta 2-4 servings
"If you're in a rush, you make a sandwich with meat or peanut butter, but the fruit and vegetable are missing," she said. "I think we're ever taught that
Jason Benavides/KANSAN
a complete meal is bread and meat."
Because meat has fat that clogs arteries, Chapman said it should be more of a side dish, with a primary diet built on plant-based foods, which include whole grains, fruits and vegetables. She said research shows a diet rich in those groups results in less cancer, diabetes and heart disease.
According to the American Institute for Cancer Research, 40 to 60 percent of all cancer cases are related to diet.
KU professor discovers team may help prevent cancer
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Enjoying a cup of green tea could help reduce the risk of cancer.
Lester Mitscher, distinguished professor of medicinal chemistry, discovered that antioxidants found in green tea protect cells and DNA from the harm of everyday air pollutants that damage cells.
"We found in literature, especially in the Orient, that drinking tea was pleasant, and it had health benefits." Mitscher said.
Green tea also helps repair the damage that caium-blacked foods have on the body.
Mitscher said that all these toxins build up in the body. As an individual ages, the toxins start to take their toll on cells.
Mitscher delivered his findings last year to the American Chemical Society that antioxidents found in green tea were superior to antioxidants found in various vitamins.
Since Mitscher's discovery, his work has been
quoted in magazines such as Women's Health Magazine and Esquire.
His work also has been noted in stores in Lawrence.
Hal Sears, herb and vitamin specialist at the Community Mercantile, said that green tea was one of the top-10 bestselling antioxidants at the store.
The reason for the popularity, Sears said, may stem from Mitscher's findings.
"Older people are more interested in it," he said. "Mortality is staring you in the face. Whereas students get sick, but they are not so worried about cancer."
Like many herbs, green tea can be purchased in tablet, capsule and raw form. But Sears said the tea bags were the most popular.
Although the tea is more popular among middle-aged individuals, Sears said that some students were interested in the drink.
As far as health risks are concerned, green tea does not have adverse effects, Mitscher said.

In his first interview after the Republican primary, David Miller said his candidacy had served the cause by keeping Governor Graves' supporters from turning their attention to the State Board of Education until it was too late to prevent John Bacon's controversial defeat of Dan Neuenswander in that same primary.

Valuing Education...
Jack Davidson
Jack Davidson is the retired Chair of the KU Physics Department. Yet even more than his remarkable career, Jack Davidson's entire life has been about valuing education. Jack worked his way through school with help from the GI Bill. With Mary, his wife of 49 years, he poured himself into boy scouts, camping trips and helping with homework. Jack taught
and lived personal responsibility. Jack and Mary saw four sons through public schools, college and graduate school. Now Jack devotes that same love and attention to his grandchildren. Jack Davidson asks for your support and your vote for State Board of Education on November 3rd.
Too Much Partisanship...
Many believe the ten-member State Board of Education should not be partisan, yet in 1996 Bacon's ultra-partisan allies won four of five races. They installed one of their own as Chair. This year, having seen what Bacon's allies did with real power and responsibility, Republican voters across Kansas sent them packing in primaries in every other district, voting to forego politics and focus on school improvement. Still, the four ultra-partisans elected in 1996 have two years of their terms remaining. Your vote for Jack Davidson is crucial.

John Glenn blasts back into space
The Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — John Glenn rocketed back into orbit yesterday on a mission of science and sentiment, returning as the world's oldest astronaut to the high frontier he pioneered for America 36 years ago.
"Let the wings of Discovery lift us on to the future," said launch control in its final words to the seven-member crew before lifoft.
"Liftoff of Discovery with a crew of six astronaut heroes and one American legend," added launch commentator Lisa Malone.
Discovery rose majestically from its seaside launch pad, riding the roaring flame of its five rocket engines through a cloudless blue sky. The craft quickly gained speed, arched toward the east and slowly faded from view, gaining orbit 81/2 minutes after liftoff.
"America is very, very proud of you today." President Clinton told NASA engineers at the launch control center.
Glenn's journey began 19 minutes late — a lot better than his first trip to orbit in 1962, when he had to endure 10 postponements during two months.
The countdown had proceeded flawlessly until about 10 minutes before the scheduled 2 p.m. launch, when an alarm sounded inside Discovery's cockpit, triggering a nine-minute delay. Shortly after the count resumed, it had to be held
Students gather for historic launch
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
In a noisy environment filled with entertaining distractions, some students found the most appealing diversion to be the television broadcast of 77-year-old John Glenn's return to space.
About 10 students gathered yesterday around the two TV sets in the Kansas Union Jaybowl, while others watched the shuttle launch on other TV sets throughout the Union.
"John Glenn's flight makes it more interesting," said Michael Norris, Paola senior. "These days you don't even know when space shuttles take off."
As Glenn sped into space, Pat Allen, Overland Park freshman, relived a 12-year-old experience that he considered the most awe-inspiring of his life.
enced. Everything shakes," he said of a 1986 shuttle launch that he witnessed with his family.
As Allen watched the space shuttle disappeared into the sky on television, he said that space launches were a lot faster than what they appeared on TV.

"That is deceiving," he said of the TV transmission.
Glenn: Returned to space on the space shuttle Discovery.
Allen said that during the live launch he spent almost six hours, waiting with binoculars.

Political system plays role in theater production
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Students presented the fine line between truth and lies in the political system last night as they opened the new University Theatre show. "An Accidental Death of an Anarchist."
The play, written by Dario Fo, the winner of the 1997 Nobel Prize in Literature, will run for two weeks in Murphy Hall's Inge Theater.
John Gronbeck-Tedesco, director of the comedy and chairman of the theater department, said Fo wrote
the story based on a real accident that happened in Italy in 1969. It tells the story of a railroad worker accused of terrorist activities who "fell" from the window of a police station.
"The story shows what happened after the anarchist was killed," he said. "This play tells the story of the police investigation and the various deviations and attempts to cover up his death."
Josh Brown, Manhattan senior, plays the main character, the Fool. Supposedly insane, the Fool is the only one who reveals the truth
He infiltrates the police station and pretends to be a judge who reopens the accident case. The Fool spends a good part of the play playing a psychological game with the characters. When the police officers are pressured, they tell several different stories about the anarchist's death, including the truth.
about the anarchist's death.
Gronbeck-Tedesco said he chose this play because it commented on many aspects that also were happening in the United States.
"The play deals with problems with authority, issues of violence

designed the scenes and lighting for the play. One of his ideas included projecting different slides in the same window as the anarchist "fell" to help the audience understand the duality of the play.
"The slides are less controlled
than the acts on the play," Ireland said. "They help to remind people that those images outside are in everyday life."
He said that the images showed such things as incidents of labor unrest that occurred in the United States and graphic depictions of police brutality.
The show will be performed at 8 p.m. tonight, Saturday, Sunday and Nov. 3. Nov. 7 in the Inge Theater.

A country music legend will be brought to life tonight at the Lied Center.
"Patsy," a musical tribute to singer Patsy Cline, will begin at 8 tonight.
The production will feature 22 live renditions of Cline's most well-known songs, including Crazy, I Fall to Pieces and Sweet Dreams.
Singer Gail Bliss, who studied with one of Cline's former vocal coaches, portrays Cline in the production.
"Gail Bliss sounds like Patsy Cline," said Jacqueline Davis, director of the Lied Center.
Davis was the person responsible for bringing the show to Lawrence.
She thought it would be a good idea to bring the show to Lawrence after seeing a preliminary production of the performance in Kansas City, Mo., and another production about Cline in Tennessee.
Davis said she also gained an interest in Patsy Cline from her daughter, who has performed the singer's music in Tennessee.
A six-piece live band, which will include one member of Cline's original band, also will be part of the production.
"Patsy" premiered in 1995 in Branson, Mo., and played for 27 weeks at

Cline, who died in a plane crash in 1963 at the age of 30, still attracts fans among the students and faculty at the University of Kansas, Davis said.
"I like her singing," said Simon Carrington, director of choral activities. "She had a very unusual singing voice."
He said he thought Cline's voice was rich and expressive.
Davis said it would be a walk down memory lane for many fans tonight.
"It will be very tempting to sing along will Gail Bliss," Davis said.

'Hawks to stand in'Cats' path

Kansas wants to spook in-state rivals tomorrow
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Terry Allen has the perfect birthday present lined up for his wife — a victory against Kansas State.
Lynn Allen, Terry's wife, shares her birthday this year with two major events — Halloween and Kansas vs. K-State football game.
And Allen wants to give her a victory, wrapped up with a big, fat how.
"There's nothing more I'd like to give her for her birthday present than a win." Allen said.
And even though it might seem impossible to some that the 3-5 jayhawks might upset fourth-ranked K-State, stranger things have happened on Halloween.
Plus, believe it or not, the facts are stacked in Kansas' favor.
■ Last season, when the Wildcats defeated the 'Hawks,
the Kansas offense, then ranked dead-last in the country,
still managed to score 16 points on the Wildcats.
"Every year it seems like we're in the mix for beating K-State," offensive lineman Justin Glasgow said. "For instance, last year, we were in the game, in the mix for competing with them and maybe even beating them. I think that's cooked up more and more emotions that we can beat them."
And now that sputtering offense isn't struggling as much anymore.
■ Last year, the Jayhawks averaged only 199 yards offense and scored a mere 96 points on the season. With three games still left to play this season, the 'Hawks are averaging 352 yards offense and already have put 231 points on the scoreboard.
Kansas State has outscored its opponents 353-48 this season in games played in Manhattan. In their only road game so far this year, they barely edged Colorado, 16-9.
Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop is expected to play against Kansas. Glasgow was taken out of the Iowa State game last weekend because of a hip injury.
Glasgow said that game wasn't the typical, powerful game the Wildcats play at home.
All this adds up to a not-so-big edge for the Wildcats.
Plus, Kansas is coming off the biggest win of the season, a 33-17 victory of then 17th-ranked Colorado.
In that upset, Kansas had the kind of game they've been honing for all year.
They didn't turn over the ball, and with five starters injured, reserves made big plays when they were needed.
The most surprising showing came from back-up quarterback Jay Alexander, who proved in one game that he could play.
Does this mean there is a quarterback controversy
looming?
"A lot can be made from the 'controversy,'" Allen said. "But, I sure like this controversy vs. a week ago when I didn't think we had a backup quarterback."
All of is coupled with another cold, hard fact —it's Kansas State.
"This is something that I've been looking forward to for awhile," Glasgow said.
Well, now is the Javhawks' big chance.
As they kickoff tomorrow at 11:37 a.m. on Fox Sports Network, it's a must-win for the Jayhawks if they want to keep their bowl hopes alive.
Conference wide open, say players and coaches
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas City, MO—Yesterday's Big 12 men's basketball media day proved one thing—most of the players and coaches think this should be the young conference's most competitive season.
For the Big 12's first three seasons, Kansas was perched firmly atop the hill. However, the loss of All Americans Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce opened the d60 for a number of other teams to share the spotlight with the Jayhawks.
Missouri shooting guard John Woods, whose team is one of the few in the conference to have beaten Kansas, said that the Jayhawks would have more competition this year.
The preseason Big 12 coaches poll is one big sign that Kansas is not necessarily the only team to be reckoned with this season. The poll picked Oklahoma State to finish ahead of the Jayhawks. The Cowboys return four starters from a team that upset George Washington in the first round of the NCAA Tournament last season and lost a close game to a talented Duke team.
"In the past, they have had dominant players, but this year you can't say that," Woods said. "There are great players on every team. Anybody can win it this year. It is going to be very competitive."
In addition to the experience that the Cowboys have, they also have the preseason conference player of the year, shooting guard Adrian Peterson.
Peterson downplayed his billing as the top player in the Big 12, and said that preseason polls can be misleading.
"Preseason predictions don't mean

Commentary
KU
Lost luster of rivalry with 'Cats no reason for fans to stay home
To some fans, the Kansas vs. Kansas State rivalry has lost its luster.
After all, the Wildcats have won every game since 1993. Five straight losses by the Jayhawks have left many of my K-State friends with an indifferent attitude.
Craig Harries, a Kansas State student majoring in agricultural education and animal science, summed up the attitude in Manhattan.
The Sunflower Showdown deserves only a side glance as the Wildcats roll to their first win in years against Nebraska, a B12 title and a spot in the Fiesta Bowl, they say.
However, any recognition of the Kansas football team is tempered by an overwhelming confidence.
It's attention Kansas drew by beat Colorado on Saturday.
But before Kansas State fans check into their hotel rooms in Tempe, Ariz., they should pay attention to Saturday's grudge match.
"There's more attention than I thought there would be." he said.
"We're going to come in there and blow you guys away," Harries said.
The outcome is not a foregone conclusion, and the rivalry is not dead.
Since the teams first played in 1902, Kansas leads the series 61-29, and the teams have tied five times.
PETER A. MCCONNELL
In the '80s, when both teams were doormats of the Big Eight Conference, the games might have been bad did someone say toilet bowl? — but they were often close.
And it should be no different as Kansas State rises in the rankings.
Given the right breaks — I don't mean lightning hitting the Kansas State buses as they travel down I-70 — Kansas will win Saturday.
Coach Terry Allen has upgraded the offense vastly. Quarterback Zac Wegner.
The Jayhawks are 3-5 but danger-
running back David Winbush and the rest of the team are capable of moving the ball and scoring.
The Jayhawks also have heart. Despite injuries to important starters and close losses to conference opponents, the team continues to battle.
Matt Fredrichs
mattf@ukans.edu
Players such as linebacker Steve Bratten, who steps on the field never knowing which play will be his last because of a reoccurring knee injury, have driven the team this season.
All the ingredients are there for a classic upset in the vein of the Boston College vs. Miami game that made
Doug Flutie famous.
Kansas State, however, has everything to lose. A win is expected. A loss ends all national title aspirations.
Kansas has nothing to lose. A win means the team still has a chance to become bowl eligible. A loss is only one more in a difficult season.
Kansas fans, this is about ardor, fan fervor, outlandish antics and screaming.
Now that we've warmed up, there's only one place to be Saturday — Memorial Stadium.
Release the energy of the rivalry.
Don't allow the purple-clad visitors to sit in our seats.
Memorial Stadium will be packer with emotion at kickoff.
The crowd support during the Colorado game was outstanding.
Arrive early.
The team will be underdogs, but this is our town, our field, our team and our chance to destroy Kansas State by ending their national title hopes.
Give vocal. It should be louder than Arrowhead stadium on third down every time Kansas State touches the ball.
The Kansas football team has the heart and guts to win this contest.
In a scrappy game, decided in the final moments, Kansas will win 31-28.

Commentary
Jayhawks' Colorado victory will make K-State win sweeter
As much as the sight of Kansas winning a game makes me want to vomit, I did smile a little watching the Jayhawks beat Colorado on Saturday.
The 16-point win against the Buffalooes gives Kansas fans — all three of them — hope when their team plays Kansas State tomorrow.
Considering the Wildcats only beat the Buffaloes by seven when the teams played Oct. 10, Jayhawks fans can spend all week dreaming up ways their team can upset Kansas State. This false sense of worth will make it even sweeter when the Wildcats whoo Kansas.
The situations unfolding are turning into a repeat of 1995. Then, Kansas State was on a roll and the Jayhawks, having scored an upset victory against the Buffaloes, thought they could hang with the Wildcats.
Kansas State 41, Lawrence State 7.
The Jayhawks' chance tomorrow is about equal to my chance of getting a date with Mariah Carey. Actually, I think my date with Mariah will come sooner than a Kansas victory against Kansas State in football.
But go ahead, Kansas fans. Tell me the Jayhawks have a competitive team. After all, they have been really close in some of their five losses. And that quadruple-overtime thriller of a victory at Alabama-Birmingham ranks right up there among the greatest games in NCAA history.
The only reason there is any hope
for the Chickenhawks is Kansas' win against the Buffers.
keep this in mind, though, Jay-hawks fans: Kansas didn't beat Colorado. Rick Neuehlus beat Colorad. Neuehlus made the mortal sin of let
ting his players knock Kansas quarterback Zac Wegner out of the game.
rado, Texas — it doesn't matter. You can't score on these guys. They have given up 57 points during seven games.

again, the Jayhawks couldn't beat a decent high school team.
Wegner probably couldn't start for a decent high school team with his 48 percent completion percentage and seven touchdowns to six interceptions but then
Whether Wegner plays, though,
doesn't really matter.
As long as he is in the game, opposing secondaries and defensive ends will nad their stats.
When Wegner came out of the game, he was outperformed by a walk-on. When it was time for Wegner to throw his game-losing interception, Jay Alexander was in instead. Too bad for the Buffaloes.
Throw any 11 guys in front of the Kansas State Lynch Mob defense, and they'll put the stop on. Kansas, Colo-
Flying high on David Winbush's 268 yards, birdbackers? Enjoy it now because he won't even gain 50 yards when he faces the Lynch Mob.
Also, don't think about throwing the ball on the Wildcats. Opponents are completing only 40 percent of their passes for an average of 5.6 yards an attempt. Throwing incomplete against the Lynch Mob is a moral victory, though —10 different Wildcats have interceptions this season.
Just ask Ricky Williams, the allworld running back at Texas who gained only 43 yards on 25 carries against the Mob.
When Kansas State has the ball, which will be the case most of the afternoon, watch the scoreboard light up like the Las Vegas strip.
It's too bad Kansas is only the fifth best team in the state, behind Kansas State, Emporia State, Pittsburg State and Wichita Southeast High School.
Offensively, the Cats have more weapons than a street gang in Chicago. Kansas, giving up more than 31 points a game, won't be able to hold Kansas State to less than its season average of 53.
Final score: Kansas State 59, Kansas 10.

Today's Birthday (Oct. 30). You're getting smarter this year, especially about money. You never can have too much, but don't overspend to get it. Learn new skills in December so you can fix something at home by yourself in Fabru-
devate. Devote March and April to love, as much as possible. It will be obvious by then how to do so. Heed an angry co-worker's advice in April, even if you don't feel like it at first. It's a lesson you need to learn. The promotion is scheduled for August, with innovative action required in September. No problem!
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0

If you're having trouble with a bureaucracy, try again now. It looks like many bureaucrats will be in a good mood. Some may be feeling generous, and you know how rare that is. If you can be polite, it's quite possible you'll get what you want. Also, play by the rules.
Everything finally clicks into place. Your friends are there to give you the support you need. Even better, things seem to be going your way. Others are beginning to see the logic of your argument and are treating you with new respect.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Lots of new assignments are coming your way. Just what you always wanted! Actually, it is what you wanted at one point. It had something to do with making money, possibly to take a vacation to some balmy island. If you haven't already made plans, think about it now.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 7.
Now this is more like it. A very good day for you. A very lucky day, and this condition holds all the way through Saturday night, Halloween. You need to do something special to celebrate this holiday. Go as your most magnificent hidden talent unleashed.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
The money is available, and it looks like it wants to come to you. Your only questions are, how and when? What do you have to do to make it happen? It looks like an expenditure may be required.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
You'll have time to relax with a friend during lunch and talk about recent developments. There's more to do, of course, but that's OK. By now, you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. You may also notice that an amazing change has occurred.
You could make a bit of money today but not by drawing attention to yourself. It’s more likely you’ll do it by taking care of somebody else. The key to your success right now is service. Figure out what needs to be done, and provide it before being asked.

**Signatures (now 12 Dec. 2017).** Today is 8.
Something's going on behind the scenes, and you don't have the full picture: Maybe it's part of the coming holiday. People are sneaking around, putting together their outfits, and don't want you to know what's going on. You don't like secrets, but this time, relax.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You're best at learning through doing. Find a coach who's understanding and compassionate. Otherwise, you'll worry about whether you're doing it right, which doesn't help the learning process.
Your work has caused others to notice you, favorably. Sometimes the controversy you generate causes hard feelings, but this time it looks as if you'll benefit. There's a demanding authority figure in your life right now. Be respectful and pleasant. If you get on this person's good side, the rewards could be worth it.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.

The people who were bickering early in the week finally will settle down. One of them is the clear winner; luckily, it's the one who was on your side. This person thinks you're great, so you're counted as a member of the winning team even if your only role was to comment from the sidelines. The comments were fantastic.

Soccer team misses Big 12 tournament
Team still striving for best end to year
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas soccer team will not qualify for the Big 12 Conference tournament this season, but there is still some business to take care of.
The Jayhawks, 5-11-1 overall and 1-7-1 in the Big 12, will wrap up their conference schedule today against Colorado, who is 4-11-3 overall and 1-5-2 in the Big 12. The season will end Sunday at Wyoming.
"We have approached the whole year one game at a time, and we're sticking with it," said Kansas coach Dan Magner. "We still have a lot to play for."
Even though Kansas cannot finish in the top six in the Big 12, it can still finish as high as eighth or as low as last.
Goalkeeper Jen Fecke said that the Jayhawks are not necessarily playing
for pride this weekend.
"We have the opportunity to jump a few places in the standings," she said. "We are playing for a better record and we'd rather finish eleven than 11th."
Although the Buffaloes may have the
worst overall record in the conference, they have played a tough schedule. They played top-ranked, undefeated North Carolina in
足球
their season opener, and lost 2-0. Also on Colorado's schedule this season was BYU Utah and Alabama.
"Colorado is in a similar position, in that they could finish eighth or 11th." Magner said. "Their schedule is ranked in the top 10, based on difficulty."
Colorado boasts goalkeeper Sloane Cox, who leads the nation in saves.
Magner expects the Buffaloes to be
tough to beat and ready to play his team. Last year, Kansas upset Colorado 4-3 at Super Target Field. Magner said that game sent the Buffaloes into a tailslip, causing them to miss the Big 12 tournament.
The game in Boulder, Colo., will serve as a homecoming for forward Meghann Haven, a native of Englewood, Colo.
"I can't wait because I know a lot of the Colorado players, and I was going to attend Colorado," she said.
One thing the Jayhawks have in common with Colorado and Wyoming is that both teams have had a tough time scoring goals this year. Kansas has scored 19 goals, but Colorado has scored only 17, and Wyoming only 13.
Last weekend, forward Lindsey Horner ended a 485-minute scoring drought, a team record, in last Sunday's 4-1 loss to 24th-ranked Texas A&M. She said that the offense has simply been unlucky not to have more goals.
"It felt good to finally score, and a goal against a nationally-ranked team
"We have approached the whole year one game at a time, and we're sticking with it. We still have a lot to play for."
Dan Magner
showed that we can score against anyone." she said.
Magner said that he thought his team could beat Wyoming with defense, and that he hoped goals would be scored by his struggling offense.
"Wyoming is improved over the last year," he said. "We have both beaten Arizona 1-0. They have a strong, organized defense, anchored by four seniors. Offensively, they have struggled, and we will try to wear down their defenders."
Kansas rowers ready for heated contest
Rivalry involves more than usual school spirit
By Matthew Friedrichs Kanson sports editor
Kansan sports editor
The Kansas rowing team has already defeated Kansas State this fall.
But when the teams race Saturday at Clinton Lake, the Jayhawks will have additional fuel to fan the fire of rivalry.
Last weekend at the Head of the Iowa Regatta, Kansas State rowers traveling at almost full speed collided with a boat of Kansas rowers resting before they rowed back to the dock after a race.
The accident is motivating the team, according to Staci Farner, a junior coxswain from Lebanon, Mo.
"We're going to kill them," she said.
The regatta, which starts at 9:15 a.m. will be Kansas' only home competition this fall and the last of the season.
Kansas will compete with Kansas State in six races. The last one will start at 10:30 a.m.
Fans who go to boat ramp No. 2 near the Clinton Lake Marina should see some good races, said Kansas coach Rob Catloth.
"We have good prospects of winning some of the races and winning the regatta," he said.
Before practice yesterday, he emphasized the importance of each race to his team.
"Be prepared for tough fights in all races," Caloth said to the women.
During practice he had the team work on a new starting technique.
"Legs, arms; legs, arms; legs, arms; then swing," he said through his bullhorn.
Rowing
The rowing technique should help the team get faster starts, but to Farner and Angie Kratchvil, a sophomore coxswain form Kearney, Neb., it sounded like a funny language that would be hard for them to pronounce as they called out instructions to their boats.
The rowing team quietly has had one of the most successful fall seasons of any Kansas athletic squad.
Charles Regatta, one of the largest regattas in the United States.
Last weekend, they placed first at the Head of the Iowa Regatta and earlier this month they were among the top 20 university teams at the Head of the
Catloth's coaching on starts is intended to continue the rapid improvement of a team that is in only its fourth year as a varsity sport.
"I heard out east at a race that the boat took off like a scaled cat," he said to the rowers, explaining why they were working on starts.
He credits much of the fall success to strong upper-class leadership. Last year's top varsity rowers are now juniors.
Saturday will be the last regatta of the fall. Monday will be the last practice on the water before the off-season, during which the team can only practice eight hours a week.
The Jayhawk rowers are the only favored Kansas team on a weekend of volleyball, football and rowing rivalry matches.
Kansas volleyball looking to avenge past K-State loss
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansas sportswriter
Before the football teams take the field Saturday, the Kansas volleyball team will battle No. 21 Kansas State at 7:30 tonight in Allen Field House.
So far, the Jayhawks have fared well in the Big 12.
For the second time this season, the Jayhawks will try to defeat their in-state rivals. If the 'Hawks win, they will improve to 5-7 in the Big 12 Conference.
This season, they have swept Oklahoma, defeated Iowa State and Missouri, and become only the third team this year to win a game against Nebraska.
Kansas is 4-7 in the conference, already posting two more conference wins than last year.
But the Jayhawks, 14-9 overall,
aren't satisfied.
VOLLEYBALL
"We've managed our Big 12 schedule, and now we just need to step up to this real quality ranked team," said Coach Ray Bechard. "Our execution must be more consistent."
Bechard said that the team struggled in the match against Oklahoma Wednesday night because the Jayhawks had lapses in their focus.
"I think I've said before that this team can't afford to take concentration breaks," Bechard said. "We took a considerable one that night. But we put ourselves in a real tense situation, and maybe that'll help us down the road somewhere."
Beachard said that the Jayhawks wouldn't want to get to that point against the 13-6 Wildcats.
Earlier this season, Kansas State defeated the Jayhawks (16-14, 15-5, 15-3 and 15-10) three games to one in Manhattan. Though led by two players who contributed more than 20 kills each, the match still was Kansas' first conference loss of the season.
Setter Laura Rohde said that this time could be different.
"If we play our game, it'll be a good match," Rohde said. "Hopefully if we get a large lead we won't just roll over like we did against Oklahoma."
Kansas State, led by Dawn Cady who has 301 kills this season, has won five of its last six matches, including toppling No. 19 Texas A&M.
Kansas middle blocker Amanda Reves leads the Jayhawks in hitting percentage, blocks and kills — and ranks in the top eight in each category in the Big 12. Reves is seventh in hitting percentage, fifth in blocks and eighth in kills in the Big 12. She also ranks 14th in the NCAA in blocks.

Rohde, who broke the five-game match-accist record with 74 assists Wednesday, just missed collecting her third triple-double this season. In addition to 74 assists, Rohde had eight kills and 24 digs in the match.

Nebraska coach Danny Nee said he would not give up on the Jayhawks too quickly, but he thought the conference as a whole could have a national impact.
"I still would pick Kansas. I still feel they're a dominant team," Nee said. "I really like Oklahoma State. I think we're a deep conference, we could be five, six or seven teams deep in the NCAA Tournament."
Nick Bradford, the Jayhawks newest post player, echoed Nee's sentiments.
"I think as a team one of our objectives is to win another conference title. We won't worry about everybody else." Bradford said. "Maybe some of our motivation comes from not being the clear-cut

son said. "We'll have to work harder to get to the top. I think the fact that the people are expecting to beat us in conference play this year is not only a challenge, but it's also motivation."
Arguing marks first 2004 Olympics meeting
ATHENS, Greece — Bickering, complaints and accusations marred Thursday's first meeting of the Greek national committee that is to help organize the 2004 Summer Olympics in Athens.
"This place is more like parliament than a national committee," the gipped Deputy Public Works Minister Christos Vereliis.
It was the first meeting of the committee since Athens was awarded the games in September 1997. Intended to coordinate preparation efforts, the committee is made up of more than 50 political, social, cultural and athletic figures.
Questions raised during the meeting included whether all the projects will be completed on time, their cost.
and if Athens will turn a profit from the Olympics.
"Everyone understands that the organization of the Olympic Games isn't a simple, technical issue but an opportunity to apply a national strategy for the country's projection," said Culture Minister Evelangos Venizelos, the committee president.
Athens has completed more than two-thirds of the facilities necessary to stage the games. Key projects — including the subway, a new airport and a ring road — are due for completion by 2001.
Organizing committee president Stratis Strategis shrugged off criticism that Athens was slow in its preparations.

Quarterback's injury gives Missouri Tigers offensive difficulties
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — The Missouri football team's recent offensive woes may be traced to a sprained left big toe.
Since quarterback Corby Jones was injured Oct. 3 against Northwestern State, the Tigers' offense has gradually become less potent. The slide bottomed out last Saturday in a 20-13 loss to Nebraska in which Missouri totaled 166 yards.
Now, as the No. 18 Tigers (5 2, 3-1) prepare for a trip to Texas Tech (6-2, 3-2), Missouri and Jones will try to rediscover the offense that scored 30 or more points in four of the first five games.
Jones hasn't missed a snap in Missouri's past two outings, but the pain always is present. When he tries to make a sharp cut up field while running the option, the foot hurts. When he drops back and dances around to avoid a sack, the foot hurts.
"There's no one specific reason to explain the offense's tough times, but there are a number of things, starting with the injury to Corby," said coach Larry Smith. "It has really limited him in practice and games. He's gradually getting better, but it's a major hindrance."
Jones has carried the ball 34 times for minus 3 yards during the past three games.
The injury kind of shakes me up," Jones said. "I'm a little down, and that's something I need to take care of.
I'm not down on my teammates at all. I'm just upset at the situation with myself."
Prior to the injury, Jones played with reckless abandon. He was a playmaker, a guy who could create a 20-yard gain from a broken play. Preseason publications touted Jones as a longshot Heisman Trophy candidate.
Instead, Jones' 1998 numbers are of the ordinary variety — 107 yards passing per game and a 51.5 percent completion rate. He hasn't been much better running the ball, averaging just 2.6 yards a carry.
"I may be subconciously limiting what I try to do," Jones said. "But I'm probably hurt most by a reduction in my quickness in general."
The burden to move the ball has fallen to a senior-laden offensive line and senior tail back Devin West, who have struggled.
"Corby's a big part of our offense, and everybody knows that," West said. "When he's not 100 percent, other people have to step up. That hasn't happened the past few weeks. Nobody's stepped up, including myself."
Jones' injury has forced Missouri to simplify its offensive playbook. Many of the bootlegs, on which Jones normally thrives because they give him a run-pass option, have been scrapped.
"The biggest difference between last year and this year is that Corby Jones was healthy all the time last year." Smith said.
Commentary
Bradford has big shoes to fill at power forward
Last year, it was the 6-foot-11, 235-
lb. All-American Raef LaFrentz.
This year, it's Nick Bradford.
At yesterday's annual Big 12 men's basketball media day, Kansas coach Roy Williams announced that if he had to field a lineup today Bradford would be his starting power forward. Yes, that's correct, the 6-6, 190 lb. junior would be the power forward for the Kansas Jayhawks. And Bradford said it would be all right with him.
"I'll be fine," Bradford said. "I may be skinny, but I have an inner strength you can't see."
addition, Williams said yesterday that Johnson had a fractured kneecap that will require surgery
Preseason injuries have decimated a position that once featured senior T.J. Pugh, junior Lester Earl and junior-college transfer Ashante Johnson. Earl still is bothered by a knee injury and Pugh is expected to miss four weeks with an ankle injury. In

"He looks pretty good down there," Robertson said. "As far as running our offense, he's held his own."
a smaller lineup, a slight change in the offense might be needed. Kansas will have to spread the floor more, leaving only center Eric Chenowith in the paint, to maximize its speed and athleticism.
"We'll have a real quick lineup; we might even have to go back to the Chickenhawks," Bradford said, referring to the small lineup that was used at times last season by Williams.
The main problem with the Jayhawks' lack of size and muscle inside appears to be on the defensive end of the court. With players like Marcus Fizer of Iowa State, Desmond Mason of Oklahoma and Manny Dies of Kansas State, Bradford will have the challenge of battling with some of the nation's best low-post players on a nightly basis.
Evidently this doesn't seem to phase the bright-eyed Bradford.
who said he already had a strategy for defending the post players.
"I'm going to try to outrun the big guys," Bradford said. "That's one advantage I have on the defensive end. I'm not going to try to bang with them or front them, I'm going to use my quickness to keep them off balance."
Williams joked that Bradford's bulk was not his most important asset as a basketball player.
"It's the first time in his whole life that the word power has been associated with his body or play," Williams said.
Despite his slender stature, Bradford will need to contribute some muscle down low if the Jayhawks are going to get off to a decent start. Nick's time is now

Baseball may ban supplement use
League appoints doctors to study androstenedione
The Associated Press
TORONTO — Major league baseball plans to ban the use of androstenedione, the muscle-building dietary supplement used by home run champion Mark McGwire, the Toronto Globe and Mail reported yesterday.
The newspaper cited unidentified sources, who said they expected commissioner Bud Selig to formally announce a ban before spring training next season.
Selig denied the report, saying he
had not begun to consider the issue.
"Together with the union, we've got the leading experts in this country studying this." Selig said yesterday. "It's not only very premature but very unfair. None of this should ever diminish from Mark McGwire's extraordinary season."
Selig and Union Head Donald Fehr agreed Aug. 27 to appoint a committee of doctors to study andro. The doctors are not expected to report back for 6 to 10 weeks.
Fehr was quoted in the paper saying all players would know what the decision on andro was once it had been made, stood on andro once a decision had been made, the paper.
"Right now, the doctors are simply investigating," he said.
McGwire, who could not be
reached for comment, hit 70 homers this year, breaking the record of 61 set by Roger Maris in 1961.
"I would hate to be in McGwire's shoes right now," said William Bryan, team physician for the Houston Astros and the past president of the Association of Professional Team Physicians. "We have just been shaking our heads all this time that androstenedione was on the shelves."
Androstenedione is illegal in Canada but legal in the United States. It is banned by the NFL, NCAA and the Olympics but allowed by baseball.
In Johnson City, Tenn. researchers at East Tennessee State are studying the supplement. Craig Broeder, exercise physiologist at the school's Human Performance
Lab, said they would study androstenedione's physical and psychological effect on men between the ages of 35 and 65.
"The main reason for the study is about health issues and anti-aging," he said.
The study's 70 participants will undergo medical tests as they engage in 12 weeks of weight training.
The $28,000 study is funded by ChemSource, a company that researches supplements and other products, and Metabolic Response Modifiers, which produces supplements.
Broeder said he hopes to find that andro can boost men's testosterone at an age when it begins to drop. Such a drop creates a greater risk of heart and circulatory problems.
Two Women's World Cup games moved
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — Two of the six Women's World Cup soccer games scheduled for next June have been moved from Portland to the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.
The games — originally scheduled for June 20,1999, at Civic Stadium — were switched after World Cup officials had haggled for months with local officials and Jack Cain, owner of the Portland Rockies minor-league baseball team, about who had rights to the stadium in
the days leading up to the games.
The 72-year-old, publicly owned stadium will lose about $100,000 in expected revenue. Perhaps more importantly, the city will lose publicity at a time when the city is hoping to draw more major sporting events.
Two days after World Cup organizers said they were moving the games, Cain said his team wouldn't need the stadium on the disputed days after all. The Rockies, a Class A farm team of the Colorado Rockies, will open the season on the road and won't need Civic until
June 26.
"This is an incredible irony," said Marla Messing, president of the Women's World Cup. "We relied on what the baseball team and MERC told us."
Representatives of MERC, or the Metro-Exposition Recreation Commission, insisted the Women's World Cup breached its contract in moving the games and said they were considering legal alternatives.
The conflict is the latest in a series of disappointments for the city's sports
promoters. Portland has repeatedly lost the NBA All-Star Game because of a lack of hotel rooms.
Efforts to land NCAA men's basketball tournament games have been hindered by the state lottery's sports-betting games. And the city finished second to Los Angeles in its attempt to land the U.S. Olympic figure-skating trials.
Portland, one of eight cities that were chosen for the 1999 Women's World Cup, will be host for six games on June 23 and 24.
Padres hope successes will score new stadium
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — The San Diego Padres were swept in the World Series, but their fans may give them a nice consolation prize — a new stadium.
This Election Day offers a new contest for the Padres, and for professional teams in Cincinnati and Denver looking to voters for new ballparks.
The Padres boosted their chances for a $411 million stadium by their surprisingly strong finish to capture the National League pennant.
The number of voters favoring next week's stadium measure increased from 48 percent this summer to 60 percent during the playoffs. Thousands of fans refused to leave
Qualcomm Stadium after the final World Series game, standing and roaring until the Padres returned for a curtain call.
"I hope this proves to them how much they mean to San Diego," said Angie Berry, 29, who stuck around to cheer for the Padres after the last loss to the New York Yankees. "I'm sure now they'll get their stadium."
The Padres estimate they've lost $50 million in the last three years because Qualcomm has no luxury boxes. They share the 31-year-old stadium with the Chargers until the Padres' lease expires next year.
Harriette Wade, who has purchased Padres season tickets since the team formed in
1969, said the team loses money not for lack of luxury boxes but because of exorbitant player salaries.
"They can fill the seats right here during a winning season and make money," she said.
Cincinnati voters already approved a half-cent sales tax increase in 1996 to build stadiums for baseball's Reds and football's Bengals, who now share the 28-year-old Cinergy Field.
In Denver, the Broncos' Super Bowl victory last year and this season's undefeated record have boosted support to replace Mile High Stadium. Voters in six surrounding counties are being asked whether to extend a pennyper $10 sales tax to build a $395 million stadium.
Proposition C in San Diego asks voters to approve a deal the city made with the Padres to build the $411 million stadium downtown near San Diego Bay. The deal requires the city to contribute $275 million, most of which would come through hotel taxes and bonds.
The Padres would kick in $115 million, up to $40 million of which they would raise from selling a company the rights to name the center. The team also agreed to recruit at least $400 million worth of development near the ballpark, such as office space, hotels, shops and restaurants, and stay in San Diego through 2024.
vibrant economic center that will attract tourists and locals. Opponents fear the project will drain money for city services.
Proponents of Proposition C say the 42,000-seat stadium will transform a forgotten warehouse district into a
"We need a better financial package with less burden to the public, and a ballpark largely affordable to families instead of half the seats going to luxury sky boxes," said Diane Dixon of the Strike Three on Proposition C campaign—STOPC.
But fans like 26-year-old Jason Winters said the investment was worth it, no matter who paid.
"A rundown part of downtown gets a shot in the arm, fans get to watch the Padres for another 20 years, the city gets recognized for a great ballpark and the Padres don't have to share space with the Chargers," he said. "All of that is worth the money, I'd say."
Belle and Johnson are hot commodities
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Two of baseball's most explosive players, Albert Belle and Randy Johnson, are now free agents and already are attracting attention.
Both the New York Yankees and Mets said Wednesday they had contacted Belle's agent, and other teams are thought to be interested, too.
Yankees
whether he'll re-sign with the World Series champions.
Yankees owner George Steinbrenner said he wasn't bothered by Belle's tempestuous past.
"Nobody's history scares me," Steinbrenner said. "We have a discipline in the organization that has proven itself."
Belle generally prefers to avoid reporters and would have trouble doing that in the Yankees clubhouse, where dozens of writers and cameramen spent hours each day.

through Nov. 25 of returning to his White Sox contract.
Joe Torre's team has been a model of tranquility this year, and Belle doesn't appear to be a good fit.
Arizona general manager Joe Garagiola Jr. said he intended to have Williams in for a visit next month. Diamondbacks manager Buck Showalter was Williams' manager in New York from 1992-95.
Williams' agent, Scott Boras, is seeking a deal at least seven years long and exceeding the $91 million Mike Piazza got from the Mets.
"Who comes from deeper problems than Darryl and
"Here's a player who was the American League batting champion, a Gold Glove center fielder. I think it would be useful, if he wants to, to have a conversation with him," Garagiola said. "He is one of the most attractive players on the market."
Johnson, who filed for free agency Wednesday, led the majors with 329 strikeouts, going 10-1 with a 1.28 ERA in 11 starts after Houston acquired him from Seattle on July 31. The Astros have said they want to re-sign

Mets general manager Steve Phillips said he talked with Belle's agent, Arn Tellem, but about a different player.
Belle hit. 328 with 49 homers and 152 RBI last season. He agreed to a $55 million, five-year contract with the Chicago White Sox in November 1996 but has a unique clause in his deal that allowed him to become a free agent Tuesday and also gave him the option

"You'd certainly have to be interested in him offensively and what he's done," Phillips said. "Any队 in baseball would like to add his offense to their club. But does he fit? I can't tell you yes or no."
the Yankees postponed a decision on whether he would exercise a $5.5 million player option for next season. The deadline, originally midnight EST Wednesday, was pushed back to Nov. 4.
In other free-agent news, the San Diego Padres exercised their $1.9 million option on postseason hero Jim Leyritz.
Philadelphia center fielder Doug Glanville, who would not have been eligible for salary arbitration until after next season, agreed to a three-year contract worth $5,575,000.
Glanville, who led the National League with 678 at-bats last season, will make $525,000 in 1999, up from a $260,000 base this year. He gets $2 million in 2000, $3 million in 2001 and a $50,000 signing bonus.

CINEMAS, LANCASTER CITY
William H. Macy and Joan Allen portray a 1950s sitcom couple in the satirical comedy *Pleasantville*. The movie follows the adventures of two '90s teen-agers who find themselves trapped in a black-and-white TV world. Contributed photo
Retro film tears down mental picket fences
By Ted Anthony
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Pleasantville is a 1950s television town that was never real, a fantasy universe that is black and white. There is no ambiguity; its citizens have tasted no apple. Their Main Street loops onto itself, and their place is the only place.
Pleasantville, a backlash to the nostalgia movement of the past decade, represents a rarity in U.S. movie making—an enlightening and often subversive examination of what it means, in the United States, to have and pursue knowledge.
Strange magic sends two teen-agers from 1998 into their television set to become characters in the 1950s TV series Pleasantville, their MTV-era sensibilities immediately begin to infect the town's Beaver Cleaver innocence.
Jennifer (Reese Witherspoon) shows a high school jock who is sweet on her that going to Lover's Lane doesn't necessarily end with kissing. David (Tobey Maguire) demonstrates to soda-jerk Mr. Johnson (Jeff Daniels) that a workday routine can be varied. Unimaginable.
Abruptly, the black-and-white world begins to decay. Subtly at first, then in a gush, the town "grows" color. First a rose, then a car — then, one by one, people.
"Roy Campbell's got a blue front door!" someone exclaims, alarmed. This sort of thing, of course, is very jarring to Pleasantville's two-dimensional denizens.
"There's something about old television that sort of suggests that original sin and the fall never happened," says Robert Thompson, a Syracuse University professor who studies TV's role in culture.
People begin to awaken. A character played by Joan Allen, who is the film's June Cleaver, develops flesh tones. She wants to pretend the colors aren't there.
Invitably, the backlash arrives. A town committee forms, and if you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem. Citizens riot, targeting the soda jerk, who has the temerity to paint a reclining mode on the side of his building. His shop is trashed.
"Once we sweep it up, it'll be all right again," he laments. It won't, of course. Knowledge can't be put back. Good or bad, forward is the only direction. *Pleasantville ends with a version of the Beatles* "Across the Universe," undoubtedly used for its refrain: "Nothing's gonna change my world." But there is more meaning within.
It is a song of the counterculture; it embodies all that the 1960s swept into society everything from the unleashing of color TV to the introduction of Eastern mysticism into U.S. culture.
The message of *Pleasantville* may not be subtle, but it is relevant: that perfect is not perfect. That imperfection — with all its knowledge of sin and the arduous struggle to control it — might just be more pure—and a lot more desirable — in the end.

It's a killer film
Rolling Stones shake off the moss in live album
NEW YORK — After 36 death-defying years in the rock 'n' roll business, Keith Richards finally faced his own mortality this past May standing on a chair in his home library.
The Associated Press
The Rolling Stones guitarist was trying to wrap his skull-ringed fingers around a copy of Leonardo da Vinci's study of anatomy. Instead, Richards found himself dodging an avalanche of books when his bookshelf collapsed — "the Encyclopaedia Britannica, heavy volumes bombing me," he said.
"It was one of those moments where you have to make a decision: Take it on the ribs or take a shot in the temple on a desk."
The 54-year-old rocker laughs, in his familiar whiskey-nicotine rasp. "All part of life's rich pageant," he said.
The accident, and resulting broken rib, forced the cancellation of several dates on the Stones' Bridges to Babylon album tour. But three weeks later, Richards was back on stage. His performance that night is captured on the Stones' seventh live album, No Security.
The record, due out Tuesday, is the Stones' third live album in the 1990s. So why another live offering? The Stones' leaders, Richards and fellow Glimmer Twin Mick Jagger, offer two reasons.
Richards' explanation: "I suppose it had something to do with our record deal in the
"One of the big differences between now and, say, the '70s, is that the Rolling Stones are a much more consistent band now."
Mick Jagger Rolling Stones band member
first place. But what got us interested was that the band played so well, so consistently well. on this tour."
Jagger echoed the latter sentiment.
"One of the big differences between now and, say, the '70s, is that the Rolling Stones are a much more consistent band now," Jagger says. "Back then, some nights were fantastic. But some shows, we'd hang our heads in our hands." "That was awful. What went wrong?"
The album chronicles the hugely successful "Bridges to Babylon" tour, a worldwide jaunt that earned the band an estimated $57 million.
In deciding which songs from the Stones' lengthy catalog might make the album, Jagger came up with a simple solution for drastically trimming any potential set list.
"I made a list of all the songs we've released live since 1979, and said, 'We're not using any of these songs,'" Jagger said. "That made choosing much easier."
CIA spy's secrets exhibited
Agent gave data to Soviets went undetected for years
The Associated Press
Timothy Hutton plays the title role in Aldrich Ames: Traitor Within, airing on the Showtime cable channel at 7 p.m. on Nov. 29. with repeat screenings in December.
LOS ANGELES — The shocking story of CIA veteran Aldrich Ames passing U.S. secrets to the Soviets for eight years without detection seemed like the plot of a spy movie. Now, it has happened.
Ames served 20 years with the CIA before starting to sell secrets to the KGB in 1985. He had been overlooked for promotion and had fallen into heavy debt because of extravagant spending.
The film pictures Ames as a humdum CIA official who has risen through the ranks despite a record of drinking and lax
For eight years, Ames continued funneling vital data to the Soviets, some of which led to the deaths of valued CIA informants. Even though he bought a costly home and upscale cars, his superiors never suspected him. It took a veteran analyst, Jeanne Vertefeuille (Joan Plowright), to expose him.
performance. He performs his traitorous deeds mechanically, with scant concern for secrecy and with a total lack of remorse.
"I think he felt that the only way out of his personal problems was to sell documents to the KGB," Hutton said. "But money problems happen to a lot of people, and there are other ways he could have solved them."
"That clearly was the flaw in his thinking; not realizing the consequences. People were going to be killed, possibly the security of the United States in other parts of the world was going to be compromised. I think it just wasn't thought through.
"Had the film continued on to when he was in prison, we would have been able to show a side of Ames that I saw during an interview in which he does confess remorse. He understands the consequences."
Hutton gained insight for his portrayal by studying various films of Ames. His conclusions: "He had trouble dealing directly with people. Something was preventing him from being who he was. Many, many walls surrounded him."
Adrich Ames: Traitor Within resembles Washington and its environs, but it was actually filmed in Toronto, like so many cost-conscious TV movies these days.
"I think they'd even shoot a Western in Toronto — if they could," Hutton said.
Sidney Poitier still selective, although age brings fewer offers
But look for no bitterness from Poitier. It is not his nature. For the last 50 years, from the day he arrived at 20th Century Fox from the New York stage, he has told Hollywood to accept him on his own terms. He is not stopping now.
The Associated Press
"To be absolutely objective, the industry doesn't really have that kind of need for me." Pottier said.
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — For Sidney Poitier, the offers don't come in as they used to.
His latest role is a psychiatrist in the TV movie David and Lisa, a remake of the 1962 film about a pair of psychologically troubled teen-agers who fall in love at a home for disturbed youths. Poiter plays Jack Miller, the therapist who slowly builds the trust of the compulsive David (Lukas Haas), a boy
"I am sure, if habit continues, there will be offers next week and maybe one next month, and maybe one six months from now, and maybe one next year, to which I will say no." he said. "And if an occasional one among them is really seductive, I'll say yes."
Shot in black and white for less than $200,000, the original David and Lisa was a critical and commercial hit that earned director Frank Perry an Academy Award nomination. The actor who originally played Miller was a Caucasian actor.
obsessed with time and death. The movie, which also stars Brittany Murphy as Lisa, was produced for television by Oprah Winfrey. It airs 8 p.m. Sunday on ABC.
Casting an African American in such a role would have been unthinkable in 1949 when Poitier arrived in Hollywood to star in the drama No Way Out. And so there were very few parts of consequence for African-American performers, and the roles Hollywood gave to them were insulting portrayals.
"Certainly, the majority of the parts, such as there were, followed a very stereotypical behavioral pattern," Poitier said.
Poitier was born in Miami to a poor tomato farmer from a small island in the Bahamas, where Poitier grew up. As a teen-ager he went to New York, enlisted in the Army at age 16 by saying he was 18, and took a number of menial
jobs.
When the American Negro Theater put an advertisement for actors in Harlem's Amsterdam News, Poitier answered the call. He didn't get the job but was determined to succeed. He paid for his acting lessons at the theater by working as its janitor and eventually got an understudy role behind an up-and-coming performer named Harry Belafonte.
By the late 1960s, Poissier was one of Hollywood's biggest stars. In 1963, he became the first African American to win as best actor, for Lilies of the Field.

Florida, Nebraska, OSU hope to avenge losses
Payback is in the air.
On Saturday, Florida, Nebraska and Oklahoma State look to average recent losses that cost them conference championships.
Last season, the Gators' bid for a fifth straight SEC title ended with a thud in Jacksonville; Fla., when Georgia won 37-17. Also, the Cowboys' 28-25 overtime loss to Texas A&M kept them from the Big 12 championship and ρ berth in the conference title game.
The Cornhuskers have been waiting two years to atone for their 37-27 loss to Texas in the Big 12 title game, a defeat that knocked Nebraska out of a national title shot.
Florida coach Steve Spurrier reminded his players of last year's rare blowout by showing them films of Robert Edwards running for four touchdowns.
"Certainly, we got clobbered," Spurrier said as his No. 6 Hog (6-1, 4-1) SEC prepared for No. 11 Georgia in the "World's Largest Outdoor Cocktail Party."
"Georgia beat us, really, in every phase of the game. Offense, defense, special teams, coaching. They outstuffed us and outplayed us. We have absolutely no excuses. So our memory was refreshed, awakened, whatever you want to call it."

Jump and jive in the swing scene

Brass horns, a string base, piano, drums and a guitar. No synthesizers. No electronics. Just strait, sweet, stylin' music. Swing music, and listening and dancing to it, has been one of the latest trends to hit Lawrence.

SWING SET
"Swing dancing is a fun type of partner dancing, not bump and grind," said Carrie Pickerling, Overland Park sophomore. "It's more sophisticated and you actually get to dance—if you find a guy who knows how to lead."
"Almost any club offers lessons before the band plays," she said. "I used to teach lessons, when they were offered, for the KU Ballroom Dance Club. I still teach lessons, though, and Liberty Hall offers them also."
For those who are rhythmically challenged and claim that they cannot dance, Tina Warriner, Overland Park freshman, said that it was not a problem.
"I go to the Bottleneck on Sundays, and every once in a while I go to the Hi-Jinx Lounge whenever they have a swing night." Warriner said.
Once all the dance moves are down, knowing where to go is the next big step.
Others, like Lindsay Daniels.
"I go to the Bottleneck because of the swing set and the people who run it," said Daniels, Lenexa sophomore. "I also like how they decorate with table cloths and candles and everyone dresses up. It's just kind of neat."
There are also people who had been going to the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., to swing dance long before the swing trend became popular in Lawrence.
Lenexa sophomore, go because of the setting and the people.
Some local band favorites include Swing 39 and the Dave Stephens Swing Orchestra.
"I like the Bottleneck, because I've seen it grow, it's one of the first places to have swing," said Abby Kepka, Ellsworth senior. "And then it all came together and everyone started doing it."

Fashion flashback flops
Zoot suit was political statement in 1940s not dancing costume
By Jennifer Polsinelli special to Kansan
Every Sunday night about 125 young men shuffle into the Bottleneck wearing baggy suits, wing-tipped shoes, and wide-trimmed, narrow-crowned hats
— what swing kids wore in the 1940's, right?
Wrong, said those who remembered swing in the 40s.
"We would go out in slacks, pleated in front, slightly fuller than they are today, a belt, and a sleeveless sweater," he said.
Paul Chambers, Missouri Western State College dance instructor, recalled the days when guys wore anything but zoot suits.
According to Chambers, zoot-suits were hideous because they were baggy, showing no form to the body and used gaudy colors
The zoot suit meant something different in the 40s. According to the Journal of Negro History, zoot suits were worn by black urban youths when the fashion appeared on the scene in 1940. "Zoot" was a rebellion against accepted dress and musical styles.
"Every generation, there's a segment of the population that create a fad, people usually identify with the outcasts, as with the case of zoot suits," said Chambers.
Even though today's male swing dancers are not dressing according to '40s fashion, the women are right on. In the '40s, Chambers remembers women wearing long full skirts that were form-fitting at the waist, decal blouses, and sweaters. After the war was over, women started wearing poodle skirts, scarves in their hair, and bobby socks.
Josh Hunt, DJ for Swingset at the Bottleneck, described women
"Girls are wearing any number of things from the '50s sock-hop look to the more conservative sweater sets and long full skirts," he said.
copying that trend.
The fun of the Cherry Popping Daddies' "Zoot Suit Riot" actually hides a darker fashion history. According to the Journal of Negro History, the zoot-suit riot that occurred in Los Angeles during the 1940s was a display of racial prejudice among the police and the press. The rioters were American soldiers and sailors who beat and stripped zoot suiters of their clothing.
Citizens of Los Angeles created an atmosphere, identified scapegoats, encouraged the vigilantes and punished Mexican-Americans for allegedly molesting white soldiers' wives and girlfriends, mugging servicemen and violating wartime dress codes.
The 112 Mexican-Americans suffered serious injuries, compared to 16 servicemen and four non-Hispanic civilians. It was estimated that 135 more people were injured but did not seek help at hospitals.
20
The zoot-suit itself became the center of the issue. It became the focus of debate in 1942 when the Los Angeles City Council passed a resolution outlawing the zoot suit. Critics asked that vendors be prosecuted since the suits used too much material in a time of rationing.
Ninety-four Mexican-Americans were taken to jail, while 20 servicemen and 30 non-Hispanic citizens were incarcerated.
The zoot suit in the '40s was an outfit that only a sliver of the American people wore. Swingers in the '40s were conservative outfits that did not draw nearly as much attention.

Dance moves in full swing around town
Continued from page 1B
Sometimes going all-out with entertainment and style is a good way to go too. Warriner said.
play music you can really dance to," said Kepa. "It's a little slower, so you can actually put moves in and it's not 'flash and trash,' which is done to fast music."
"It's old-style swing; they'll really put on a show," she said of the Dave Stephens Swing Orchestra. "They'll have bubble machines, cap guns, whistles, and they'll shoot fire. They also use a 'Marvinizer' which distorts your voice — they're the only ones I've ever seen use it — and they wear tuxedos."
So why is an old style of dance showing up in the 1990s? People can probably thank dance troupes, such as Whitey's Lindy Hoppers, said Warriner.
They are the ones who did swing with lots of jumps and aerials, which made it really popular so that it spread out of New York," said Warriner.
Other inspirations include one of the original members of the Wits Lindy Hoppers, Frankie Manning, 84, who still offers lessons, workshops and even has videos out nationally.
No matter how old swing may be,
seems new because it is really a freestyle kind of dancing. Kepka said.
"The beautiful thing about swing is that you can make up your own moves and you can put as much pizzazz and panache in it as you want." she said.
KU Ballroom Dance Club will be offering swing lessons on November 1 and 8 from 2 to 4 p.m. at the Kansas Union in either the Ballroom or Kansas Room.
Lawrence musical acts depend on hometown crowd to keep the beat
Musicians balance work and performances hoping to achieve success on the stage
By Mike Miller Kansan correspondent
T
the paths local bands travel can be radically different from one another, but the destination and results invariably are the same.
Bands' music may be based on rhythm and blues, hard rock or punk, but with several musical venues available in downtown Lawrence, such as the Jazzhaus, 926 1/2 Massachusetts St., the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., and the Replay Lounge, 946 Massacusetts St., bands always can find an audience.
"I might field 40 calls or receive 10 promo kits a day from bands; it's never a problem filling days," said Rick McNeally, scheduling manager at the Jazzhaus.
reaturing blues, jazz and folk rock, the Jazzhaus has shows Wednesday through Saturday, McNeally said, and 40 percent of those acts are local bands.
After hooking up at a party and jamming together, members of the Sugadad-
dies grabbed their name from a Jackson 5 song. Describing their music as mix of Earth, Wind and Fire, John Coltrane and Aretha Franklin, their performances appeal to a large local following. Sporting a bass guitar, lead guitar, keyboards, drums, tenor and alto saxophones, trumpet, congas and auxiliary percussion, the Sugadaddies are one of the larger bands in the area.
The Sugadaddies have managed to play once a week at local bars, even though eight of their 10 members are younger than 21.
"It makes it harder for us to play at some places, but usually the management is pretty cooperative about us playing despite our ages," said Jaimie Turner, the band's lead singer.
Tawni Freeland, of the Glitter Kicks, another local band, said writing songs for fans was like sharing her thoughts.
Freeland started with another band before meeting Ed Rose, guitarist for the Glitter Kicks.
"It's great when the fans can relate to our songs," she said.
The Glitter Kicks have been together for almost seven months. Members try to find time to practice between 60-hour work weeks and performances every weekend in the Lawrence area.
Enormous amounts of work become the norm for band members, whether playing while in school or trying to make a living after college. Despite this, most musicians say their music is what keeps them together.
The members of Danger Bob have been playing together for six years. They started in bars and developed their music through the years by moving on to different venues.
Although the band's members have gotten involved with other projects recently, they still get together a couple of times a month to play.
Bands without a great sound still can break through with a large fan base. But even if a band is great, greatness is an arbitrary term, McNeally said.
"I try to give the local musicians a chance, but ultimately what makes them successful is if people like them and they want to come see them play," he said.
I'll just use the text as it appears.
Actually, looking at the image again, it's too blurry to be sure of what is being written. I'll just provide the text based on the visible parts.

Restaurants tap into art of brewing
By Doug Pacey Kansan correspondent
Beer brewing can be done on a large scale with thousands of workers all performing specialized tasks or on a smaller scale, such as a one-person operation in a local restaurant.
Although Lawrence may not have any macro-breweries, it does have its share of brew pubs.
Three brew pubs call Lawrence home: Free State Brewery, Sports Page Brewery and Brown Bear Brewery.
Free State, 636 Massachusetts St., the oldest legal brewery in Kansas, has been brewing beer in Lawrence since 1880.
Steve Bradt, Free State's head brewer, said they produced roughly 3,300 barrels of beer per year, or 6,600 kees
Brown Bear, 729 Massachusetts St., has been brewing for only two years. It produces an estimated 2,000 kegs a year. Ian Adams runs Brown Bear's brewing operation alone.
Sports Page, 3512 Clinton Parkway, has been brewing beer for less that two years. Justin Dean, the only brewer at Sports Page, said that he brewed an estimated 1,000 kegs a year, which means he works 60-70 hours a week.
Lawrence brewers said the process was not easy or cheap.
I work five or six days a week and eight to 12-hour days, or more, if needed," Adams said. "But you gotta do what you gotta do for the beer."
The long hours are paying for Brown Bear. In August, the brewery placed third in the Scottish Ale category at the World Beer Cup with its Quantrill's Red brew.
"That award gave us world-recognition," Adams said. "We have the third-best Scottish Ale in the world."
Bradt heads up a four-person brew crew at Free State.
"We've got three full-time employees brewing the beer and another person who works about 35 hours a week,"he said.
The equipment, which includes pipes, kettles, kegs and tubes, also has expensive temperature gauges, specialized cooling tanks and holding kegs, Lawrence brewers said.
The malt, generally barley or wheat, is cracked and fed into a wooden tank. Hot water is added into the tank as a catalyst to activate the natural enzymes in the malt. These enzymes convert the malt into fermentable sugars in a process called mashing.
The art of beer
Brown Bear's and Sports Page's brewing equipment cost nearly $300,000 each.

Home-brewing systems are much cheaper but can cost a few hundred dollars. Brewing ingredients, such as the hops, barley and wheat, can also be expensive, Bradt said.

After boiling, the wort is pumped through a water-cooled heat exchanger. The wort drops from 200 degrees to 65 degrees for ales and 50 degrees for lagers. From the heat exchanger, the wort flows into a fermentation vessel.
The liquid is filtered through the grain in the wooden tank until the liquid is clear. This clear liquid, called wort, is then pumped into the brew kettle and it is boiled for at least one and a half hours. When the wort is being boiled, hops are added at different intervals to provide flavor, bitterness and aromatic quality. Most hops are grown in Britain, Germany and the Pacific Northwest.

In the fermentation vessel, yeast is added to the wort. The wort is then stored in a fermenter for 12 to 21 days. The temperature is dropped in the fermenters at strategic intervals, depending on the desired brew. When the fermentation has ended, the beer is filtered and pumped into copper tanks. The beer is then put in kegs and ready for distribution.

Students, costume shops prepare for masquerade
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
To the disappointment of the public, Bill and Monica will not be together in Lawrence this Halloween.
Although the masks are frequently requested, many local retailers opted not to include them in their costume collections.
"Bill and Monica are really popular, but we're not carrying that. I think it is a way overdone deal." Sarah Faymah, owner of Sarah's Costumes, 927 Massachusetts St., said.
However, Faymah said she was able to fill a lot of requests, including those for characters of the cartoon South Park. Sarah's Costumes had the set of four characters, and Faymah said they were popular costumes this season for people going out as a group.
"It depends on what the customer wants to spend," Porter said. "You can spend as little as $10 or as much as $200."
Chad Porter, The Etc. Shop's costume sales representative, said costume-shop employees generally were able to satisfy requests with their collection of 10,000 costumes and accessories.
In spite of the store's ability to create and accessorize almost anything, Porter said he had one request so far this season he could not quite fill.
"There was one guy in here wanting to be huge purple butterfly," he said. "We didn't have the wings or the leotard, but we got him set up with a wand and some other accessories."
John Sears, colby senior, said he had not colly to piece together his costume yet, but he said he would not wait until the last minute to do it.
"I will probably go out shopping today or tomorrow," Sears said Wednesday. "I haven't gone out yet because I haven't decided if I want to be a mailbox or a command."
If he chooses the mailbox costume, Sears said he would have to build it from cardboard and other materials. The idea, he said, was modeled after a costume he had seen before.
"It's not totally an original idea." he said. "This guy I went to school with in Arizona dressed up like the kind of blue mail boxes you see on street corners. He put holes in the sides for his arms and one on top for his head."
Megan Barber, Papillion, Neb., junior, said she and her roommate were going to go out on Halloween with coordinating costumes.
"I want to be a pimp for Halloween," she said. "I plan on wearing a suit and probably some godawful tie and lots of gold jewelry. My roommate and I usually go out together, and we wanted to dress as a man and a woman, but then we decided to do something more extreme."

This fall, audiences cool to art films
Chris Tucker battles crime in the action movie *Rush Hour*. Lawrence theater managers said big-budget movies like *Rush Hour* drew the largest crowds this fall. Contributed photo.
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
The weather cooled, but it was still summertime at the movies.
Big-budget action movies and comedies, normally the mainstay of the summer months, continued to draw substantial crowds at Lawrence theaters. But dramas and art-house flICKS such as A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries failed to attract their share of the viewing audience, theater managers said.
"Usually, it's a very terrible time of year," said Nick Guinan, general manager of Southwind 12, 3433 Iowa St. "It's been a little stronger this year than usual."
Guinan said the most popular films at Southwind had been the Jackie Chan action movie *Rush Hour*, the Wesley Snipes horror flick Blade and the gross-out comedy There's Something About Marv.
This fit with trends across the nation. Rush Hour already has grossed more
than $110 million, and Blade is inching toward a final gross of $70 million.
The real success story has been There's Something About Mary, Guinan said.
"Mary just amazingly hangs in there," he said. "It's been the sleeper hit of the season. It's starting to taper off now."
The movie, which stars Cameron Diaz and Ben Stiller, has grossed more than $160 million across the nation.
Scott Bliss, manager of Liberty Hall Cinema, 642 Massachusetts St., reported less-than-satisfactory results for the season's slate of art movies. The edgy thriller *Pi* did so-so business, by A Soldier's Daughter Never Cries, the new movie from the production team of Merchant Ivory (Howards End), tanked, Bliss said.
Bliss said part of the problem was that the movie just could not find its proper audience. Merchant Ivory typically is known for costume dramas set 100 years or more in the past, but Soldier's Daughter found the team mining new territory.
"It's tough," Bliss said. "Those guys have been around, and then they hit a pit with their last couple of movies. This new one just isn't a period piece — it's set in the '60s and '70s."
Bliss said he wasn't surprised by the movie's weak turnout. After more than a month in release, Soldier's Daughter has taken in less than $1.5 million across the nation. Compared with the double-digit grosses of art hits such as The Crying Game or The Full Monty, it has been a disappointment. Bliss said.
"We realized that it just wouldn't be playing with audiences," he said. "But then stuff like The Spanish Prisoner did really well elsewhere, but in Lawrence, it just did OK."
The big Hollywood studios also tend to release their more Oscar-worthy product in the fall. In the fall of 1997, audiences were treated to the acclaimed Boogie Nights and L.A. Confidential. But 1998 seems to be the exception, said John
Tibbetts, assistant professor of film.
Tibbetts said that Jonathan Demme's Beloved, based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Toni Morrison and released by Disney, had failed to score with audiences for a specific reason.
"I think in that case, you've got a situation where the audience is smarter than the filmmakers," Tibbets said. "It was a very pretentious product. I think that younger viewers have caught on to the fact that this film has placed its message second and style first, and the audience has realized it."
Since opening on Oct. 16, Beloved has grossed less than $15 million. Tibbets said the movie's subject matter, about a runaway slave who murders her daughter, was out of place with the current mood among moviegoers.
"The youth crowd is always going to be looking for a fast service," Tibbets said. "They're looking for special effects and irreverence — always irreverence."
John Carpenter's Vampires a bloody romp with spunk
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansas movie critic
Kansan movie critic
Few movies earn the right to be as much fun as John Carpenter's Vampires.
Bloody, vulgar and jammed with enough attitude to make Quentin Tarantino jealous. Vampires unfolds in a world of crude anti-heroes, merciless killers and sunscorched settings. When these bloodsuckers fry in the New Mexico sun, you practically can smell the fumes.
Make no mistake: This movie isn't for everyone. The absence of likable characters and a tone that shifts from barbaric to misogynistic — all women are either prostitutes or vampires — will send certain folks into a tizzy. And any movie in which the hero twice throttles Catholic priests is asking for trouble.
In short, critics will fault the movie for bad taste. I would argue that bad taste was director Carpenter's intent all along.
Inside, a female vampire soars out of a darkened corner and tackles one of Crow's men. While the two grapple, Crow simply
Take the first scene; Vampire-slayer Jack Crow (James Woods), a you-talk'in-to-me tough guy in leather and sunglasses, leads his team of hunters into an abandoned farm house in rural New Mexico.

Open wide, baby," he says as an arrow plunges into the vampire's chest with a thunk. After the body has been nuked by sunlight, Crow nonchalantly strikes a match for his cigar off the charred skull.
As it turns out, Valek is after the Berziers Cross, a relic that may have the power to
Crow and his partner, Montoya (Daniel Baldwin), manage to escape along with Katrina (Sheryl Lee), a hooker who suffered a bite from Valek. Though not yet a vampire herself, Katrina shares a telepathic link with the undead, which requires Crow to keep her around as a means of monitoring Valek's movements.
Crow and his buddies later tear it up at a seedy motel with a gaggle of hookers and the local law enforcement. Their attempts at merriment are cut short when Valek (Thomas Ian Griffith), a centuries-old vamp, pops up and begins decapitating prostitutes and slayers with his bare hands.
allow vampires to move about safely in the daylight.
Crow also senses a setup in the works. During the motel attack, Valek addressed him by name, and Crow suspects that the local cardinal (Maximillian Schell) may be in cahoots with vampires. As such, Crow has to content with the nagging presence of Father Guiteau (Tim Guinee), a young priest who secretly wants to impale a few bloodsuckers himself.
Action aside, Vampires strikes its best points during smaller moments. In one scene, Crow slices open Guiteau's hand, explaining how he killed his father-turned-vampire.
"So don't think I won't kill you," he snarls. Carpenter, who also directed the original Halloween and Escape from New York, wisely keeps the material free of pretensions. Unlike the recent Blade, Vampires actually has some stylish filmmaking and a sense of humor. The fighting sequences have a rhythm and purpose that Blade's sloppy action missed by a mile.
JOHN LENNON
Unlike today's directors, Carpenter doesn't rely on razzle-dazzle to get the point across. He understands that computerized special effects never will replace an artist's personality or flair.

Intramurals give students thrills

By Brandon Stinnett Kansan correspondent
Many University of Kansas students are choosing to participate in intramural sports after classes are finished for the day.
Students can choose from five intramural team sports, seven individual and dual sports and two tournaments offered during the fall semester. Sports such as flag football and table tennis are open to all KU students.
Jason Krone, the assistant director of recreational services for the University, said he thought there were a couple reasons students liked to participate in intramural sports.
"Many people participated in athletics in high school and want to carry on with them in college," he said. "It is also a stress reliever."
Krone said between 3,000 to 5,000 students take part in intramural athletics each year. He said most students started participating during their first year at the University.
He said it gave students a chance to interact with other students and work off stress.
Team sports are divided into three divisions: men's, women's and co-recreational. Each division is then placed in a residence hall, greek or open league. Teams in each league play regular season games to determine seeding for a post-season tournament. Krone said three factors determined a team's seeding for the tournament.
"We look at regular season records, how the teams are playing and if they placed last year," he said.
Paid officials run the events and a supervisor is assigned to each sport to make sure things run smoothly and to answer team's protests.
Karl Law, intramural program assistant, said the University's intramural sports program was a benefit for students.
"The majority of people aren't able to play collegiate sports, but intramural sports are a good way to have fun." Law said.
Clint Gossage, Eudora freshman, is a member of flag football team from Amini Scholarship Hall. He said playing on the team was a good experience.
"The male bonding that I felt playing flag football made it all worthwhile," said Gossage. "It helps bring people from residence halls and scholarship halls together and lets you meet new people on the playing field."
Gossage's teammate, Shawnee
freshman Scott Chapman, said he enjoyed playing flag football for different reasons.
This year, due to student requests, a bowling tournament and league and a eight-ball pool tournament were added. Law said he and Krone worked together to provide the sports that students wanted.
"It helps people take their minds off some school work and helps you keep in shape," said Chapman.
"Krone is more than happy to listen to peoples suggestions," Law said.
Law said the program had been running smoothly so far.
"This year the only problem we've had is the weather," he said.
College social life endures changes through the years
By Tiffany Walter
Kansan correspondent
During the past two decades, the Lawrence social scene for University of Kansas students has changed gradually.
Many of the activities that students in the late 1970s enjoyed still hold appeal for students in the late 1990s.
The 1970s could be typified by a free and communal atmosphere, where students enjoyed jam sessions in residence hall lobbies.
The 1980s brought roller skating rinks and video games into the social arena.
With the 1990s came the popularity of coffee houses and the Internet.
When the campus was not dry and the legal drinking age was still 18, many of the residence halls on campus held parties in the lobbies with kegs of beer and musicians. Eating also became and activity where people could come together.
"When I was a KU, communal cooking was a big thing where we all would cook a big meal and then eat it," said Kim Usato, 1981 graduate. "It was a big party essentially."
Places that are still popular in the '90s were also popular in the '70s, such as Joe's Bakery, 616 W. 9th St., and The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St.
Also, before its time came a coffee house called The Pintamento where teas and vegetarian fare were served with readings or acoustics in the background.
The era of roller skating rinks peaked in the 1980s. Besides skating rinks, Sunset Drive-In Theatre, which was dismantled in 1985, and bowling alleys became local scenes of KU student activity.
In most bars and clubs, video games such as Ms.Pacman and Space Invaders made their
presence. Dance clubs, such as Gammon's, also drew large crowds of people.
"I remember they had a special 'Who Shot J.R. Night?' on a wide screen television, and there were a ton of people who showed up to watch," said Mike McCafferty, 1984 graduate.
Bars and pool halls were more social gatherings places for KU students of the 1980s. One popular hangout was the Purple Pig, which had a sign out front proclaiming "Free Beer Tomorrow."
Another place, the YickUp
And Down was set up with a
pool hall upstairs and a bar
with a dance floor downstairs.
In the age of a dry campus and a legal drinking age of 21, KU students of the 1990s often must find other amusements besides the bar atmosphere.
Dance clubs, such as the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., are popular places for socializing.
Also, the swing dance craze has hit Lawrence. Places around town offer lessons and special swing nights. All-night coffee houses also have seen a popularity boom in the 1990s.
"I just relax and drink coffee," said Heather Uble, Manhattan junior.
Music still plays an important role in the lives of KU students, with a variety of performers at the Lied Center. Lawrence's close proximity to Kansas City also offers access to the big concert tours.
Movies also hold great interest for students. Although all the dollar theater in towns have closed, Student Union Activities shows movies at a discounted rate.
Hollywood Theaters recently has decided to offer students a discount on tickets. The tickets were previously $6 and are now $4.75 for students.

Open house games part of on-campus Halloween
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
In her six years as postal clerk at the Kansas Union, Evelyn Schmidtberger has seen her share of pumpkin carvings and costume competitions at the Union's annual Halloween Open House.
"A sizable number of students come to the open house although there were more in the past," Schmidtberger said. "Students like taking part in the pumpkin carving but don't dress up that much for the costume contests."
The annual Halloween Open House will take place on the fourth-floor lobby of the Kansas Union from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today. The event is sponsored by Student Union Activities.
It may attract more sedate participants these days, but the organizers have thrown in prizes, giveaways, games and contests for all tastes, said Tom Field, SUA program coordinator.

Prizes include gift certificates, T-shirts, sweatshirts and haunted house tickets, said Katrina Widholm Warren, marketing coordinator with the Kansas and Burge Unions.
Students will be offered free cider and cake, can get their fortunes read by astrologers and can have a free caricature of themselves drawn. Field said.
He said the turnout had been larger in previous years because of classes in Woodruff Auditorium while Budig Hall was under construction
"There were a lot more students going through the Kansas Union," he said.
But some Union employees such as Karen Lewis, salads supervisor with the Kansas and Burge Unions catering department, are keeping their fingers crossed.
Lewis said the bakery department was making six cakes in anticipation of a greater turnout this year because the event coincides with at KU Senior Day.
The Union Food Services also have organized Halloween menu specials today, said Widholm Warren. Festive names will be given to today's food specials.

Two fraternities, two sororities and the members of Junior Greek Council will participate in activities tonight that will benefit the Lawrence community.
The men of the Phi Beta Sigma fraternity will be putting together a haunted house activity for the children of the Boys and Girls Club of Lawrence. The activity will be from 3 to 5 p.m. at the Boys and Girls Club, 1520 Haskell Ave.

The members of the fraternity began setting up the haunted house yesterday. The house will include haunted rooms with special effects and candy, said Kenny Kao, president of Phi Beta Sigma.
"Our fraternity is based on the principals of brotherhood, scholarship and service, and that is what we try to practice every week in the community," Kao said. "Spending time with the kids is something we like to do because we feel we are helping out the community."
P. J. Earl, Lenexa senior, said that he was looking forward to the activity because he enjoyed spending time with the kids.
"It's going to be fun for everyone involved because it will be an activity that is different than usual," Earl said. "It's also a good way for us to serve the community as positive role models for the kids."
The women of the Alpha XI Delta sorority will be organizing activities for the youngsters in the Lawrence area.
Amy Heinemann, president of Alpha XI Delta, said the women in her chapter had been preparing for the Halloween party they are sponsoring for Lawrence children at the Ballard Community Center Inc., 708 Elm St.
The party will last from 3 to 5 p.m. and will involve Halloween games, coloring activities and treats for the children.
"This is the fifth year that we've done this, and I think it's great because we get to
spend time with the kids," Heinemann said. "I think it's good that we are able to get out in the community and see the positive impact that we have on them."
Members of the Alpha Chi Omega sorority and the Sigma Phi Epsilon fraternity also will be entertaining a few kids this evening.
Every year, Alpha Chi Omega holds a Halloween party for the children of Lawrence daycare centers and elementary
schools at the sorority house. This year, the sorority will be planning the party with its 1999 Rock Chalk Revue partner, Sigma Phi Epsilon.
The party will be from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Alpha Chi Omega house, 1500 Sigma Nu Plu.
party will be from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Alpha Chi Omega house, 1500 Sigma Nu P1. Gretchen March, Topeka senior and member of Alpha Chi Omega, is one of the event's organizers. She said it would be fun because everyone — including the sorority and fraternity members — would be dressed up in costumes.
March said the sleeping portion of the house would be decorated. The children also will be able to trick-or-treat inside the house by walking from door to door.

They will be dressing up tonight to trickor-treat for canned food items that will be donated to the Douglas County Food Shelter.

Theater involves University community in performances
KU students act design for plays
Kansan correspondent
By Nathan Willis
The square, brown-brick former church building at 1501 New Hampshire St. has a rigid and solemn facade with its stained-glass windows and wide front steps.
But that belies the lively entertainment that can be found inside, thanks to the Lawrence Community Theatre, which has called the building home since 1984. What was once a sanctuary and total immersion baptismal area is now a stage and auditorium, said Mary Doveton, director.
The theater troupe was founded about 20 years ago, said Doveton, who was one of the founders. She said it began as a group of people who came together to stage a single production, and it snowballed from there.
She said that the mission of the theater, which performs several shows
each semester, was to provide area audiences with quality live theater that could be enjoyed by individuals both as spectators and participants.
She also said that University of Kansas students traditionally have been a big part of the process, and their involvement wasn't limited to the roles of spectators.
"We have students who have acted with us; we have students who have designed costumes," she said. "Auditions are open to anyone, and we have such a great reputation that we're starting to have people come in from Kansas City and Topeka, as well as the little towns around here."
Jason Hart, Dodge City second-year law student, has acted with the troupe. Hart said he had enjoyed his experience in the troupe and had found several advantages to being involved in the group.
"One of the best things about it is that once you've been in a show, everyone knows you," he said. "I've had merchants on Massachusetts Street recognize me. One time, I ran into Max Falkenstein, the voice of the Jayhawks,
at Papa Keno's. He started up a conversation with me because he had seen me in a show. I was like, 'You're the one who's a celebrity.'"
Falkenstein is a radio announcer for KU football and men's basketball games.
Kelly Schellman, a Lawrence freshman who was in this fall's performance of "My Fair Lady," said that being able to meet people in the cast was a great experience.
"Even though I'm from Lawrence, I still got to meet a lot of people I'd never met before," Schellman said.
In addition, Hart said balancing the demands of classes and the theater was not as hard as one might think.
"My time management improved because I was so busy," Hart said. "My best semester of law school was when I was doing 'Forever Plaid.'"
Schellman said the time spent at the theater didn't harm her studies.
"The rehearsals are always in the evening," she said. "It didn't directly affect my classes. I still had time to do my homework."
Although some enjoyed the role of the
performer, more KU students take the role of spectator, Doveton said.
"A lot of students have told me that the theater is a great place to take a date," she said.
Schellman said that the theater offered a different experience from the other theater venues in Lawrence.
"It's a lot more of an intimate setting," she said, referring to the theater's small size and close seating. "The energy that's transferred between the audience and actors is greater, is really amplified, and it's a lot more enjoyable for the spectator in that kind of setting."
Doveton said that the semester's last show will be "Cash on Delivery", a British comedy that opens Nov. 27 and runs through Dec. 13.
She said that most students came on Thursday nights because that's when student tickets are discounted to $7. The regular student-ticket price is $13.
Students may order tickets in advance by calling 843-SHOW.

Students find chills, thrills at haunted houses in KC
by Sam Mollinger
Kansan staff writer
About this time every year, masses of University of Kansas students flock to Kansas City to get the hell scared out of them.
The Edge of Hell, the Beast and Catacombs are some of the more popular haunted houses in downtown Kansas City that attract students and others during the Halloween season.
"It's fun," said Emile Foster, Colorado Springs senior. "You can only go once a year, so it's a lot of fun, and you might as well take advantage of it."
Foster has gone to the Edge of Hell the last two years and was impressed with some of the additions to the house this year.
"There's a lot of new things this year," she said. "They had this room where you feel like it turns you upside down, and they still have the big slide."
That slide is the trademark of the Edge of Hell. It is five-stories high, and participants sit on a
piece of wax paper to cut down on friction. The Edge of Hell also features a snake cage with the largest anaconda in North America.
On weekdays, there is rarely a line for the haunted houses but waiting for the Edge of Hell can be an experience, thanks to Ratman.
"There's this guy with a rat and it's a pretty big rat," said Willie McKinnis, Lawrence junior, who went to the Edge of Hell about a week ago. "But he takes it and puts the head of the rat in his mouth and just looks at you."
Not everyone sees the rodent act as attractive.
"I think it's kind of disgusting, but everybody seems to love the Ratman," said Jean Durbin, who works at the Edge of Hell. "We tried to get rid of Ratman, and people loved him so much they threw a fit. We had to bring him back."
The houses aren't just places to watch guys put rats in their mouths. The haunted houses sometimes double as a wedding chapels. A couple is getting married at the Beast today.
Here are the addresses and phone numbers for some Kansas City Haunted Houses;

Campus pranksters may not be as mischievous this year
K-State football game expected to be a source of weekend activity
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
It may be a quiet Halloween this year, at least as far as student pranks are concerned.
For many, pranks and celebrations will be overshadowed by the football game against Kansas State on Halloween.
Kevin Moyer, Ulysses senior and member of Phi Kappa Theta fraternity, said his chapter usually had a costume party and sometimes pulled a couple pranks on friends who came to this house — not this year, though.
"We're not doing anything this year since the football game is on Saturday," he said. "We think we're going to win, and we want to keep our options open so we can go to the bars," he said.
said Officer Matt Sarna.
"We don't expect any more business, except I'm sure we'll see a lot of loud party calls,"
Lawrence police said they wouldn't need to do anything extra for Halloween since they'd already be out in force for the game.
Sgt. Troy mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said he expected more activity to happen in relation to the game than to Halloween.
"The biggest thing right now is the rivalry between the schools, but even that has been pretty quiet," he said.
"People will probably avoid pranks with everything that's going on right now," said Kim Matthews, Overland Park sophomore and Alpha Chi
Omega resident.
For others, recent sightings of a man in a mask lurking around sororities have made pranks a touchy subject.
Even though the coast looks clear for pranks, local cemeteries will be on their guard.
Terry Engel of Oak Hill Cemetery, 1605 Oak Hill Ave., said that although the cemetery had experienced vandalism, it was not usually on Halloween.
"We haven't had any problems on Halloween night for about five years," he said. "People probably have other things to do."
Just in case, Engel said that in years past Oak Hill staff had organized an informal patrol of the cemetery's grounds on Halloween.
"This year the police are going to take that over." he said.
The police will go to Oak Hill every hour to make sure there are no problems. Engel said.
Although things look to be quiet in Lawrence for the most part, the notoriously prankish scholarship hall community may indulge in a few Halloween jokes.
Larry Gibbs, Lawrence senior and president of Grace Pearson Hall, said that Stephenson and Pearson Hall residents were traditionally pranksters.
Ethan Good, Marion junior and president of Pearson, said last year around Halloween all of the
chairs in Pearson's dining hall were piled on to one chair. He suspected another men's hall.
Jason Thompson, Hutchinson junior and president of Stephenson, said his hall had no specific plans for pranks this year.
"There are none that I've heard of, unfortunately. We're traditionally more about pranks whenever," he said. "Who knows, they may pull something on me, but I doubt it."
Maybe he shouldn't
Maybe he sabbak!
Good said that he hadn't had plans to play pranks on other halls for Halloween.
"But I might have to now," he added.

Fear and beer create creepy combination for Halloween revelers
By Carolyn Mollott
Kenson stuff writer
Halloween inspires an inordinate amount of partying among KU students.
"There are so many parties going on," said Rana Cline, Scandia senior.
Cline and her roommates have been planning their party for more than a month, and she said she hoped all of her friends could come even though they were all invited to a lot of parties.
Cline lives outside of Lawrence with three friends. She said some weird things had happened in their house in the past
— things that reminded them of ghosts. Cline said they would play up the haunting connection with a haunted house at their party.
Cline and her roommates have experienced voices sounding like a woman screaming in the distance, footsteps on the stairs and misplaced objects falling.
She said there also would be dancing and drinks for those who did not want to brave the haunted house.
Mary Vernon, Salina junior said that her Halloween party would not have a haunted house but that she and her roommates plan to have food, drinks and a costume contest with prizes.
Vernon said she didn't know how many people would come but she thought it would be at least 100.
"It's just a fun way to kind of loosen up and break away from the norm."
Salina junior
"A lot of people told us that they have a lot of other parties to go to," she said.
Vernon said she thought people loved partying on Halloween because the holiday was a chance for people to express their individuality through their costumes.
"It's just a fun way to kind of loosen up and break away from the norm." Vernon said.
Bryce Miller, Topeka senior and clerk at Ray's Discount Wine and Spirits, 2100A West 25th St., said beer was the drink of choice for Halloween parties.
Students who planned parties said they would have alcohol available.
Miller predicted the store would see a huge sales increase on Friday evening and again on Saturday after the football game.
Dan Blomgren, owner and manager of Cork and Barrel, 2000 W. 23rd St., said he expected the same situation.
"Typically Halloween will be one of the busier nights of the year," he said.
Carnival entertains attracts big crowds; volunteers help out
By Chad Bottos
Kansan staff writer
Halloween is a hopping time of year at Hilltop.
Hilltop scares up Halloween fun
The children who attend preschool and other classes at Hilltop Child Development Center are celebrating the season with carnivals, parties and costumes, said Sara Barth, assistant program director.
"Halloween is actually our biggest holiday of the year," Barth said.
High on this year's list of costumes are Winnie the Pooh characters, lizards, princesses, cows and angels. Barth said older children also liked Spice Girls costumes.
Scary costumes like witches and ghosts are traditionally popular as well.
The carnival, which attracted over 500 attendees, offered many entertainment options. Children walked through a haunted forest, competed in a cake walk, played games and had their faces painted.
"We even had a few Grim Reapers," Barth said. "But the kids don't do a lot of real spooky things like monsters."
The children had the first opportunity to show off their costumes on Sunday at the center's annual carnival.
Although it was a Halloween carnival, Aimee Garcia, Lawrence junior, said her son thought it was more fun than frightening.
"When he went through the haunted forest, the witch said,

"There's a little boy for my stew!" Garcia said. "He just laughed."
Garcia attended the carnival with her husband and 5-year-old son. She said the event was a success.
"It's very beneficial for the families. A lot of staff and volunteers put time into it," Garcia said. "It's a lot of fun and safe, too."
Barth said so many KU students enjoyed volunteering at the carnival every year that she had to turn some away this year. She said members of Kappa Sigma and Alpha Kappa Lambda volunteered Sunday.
Brooke Hall, Lake Quivira sophmore, works at Hilltop and volunteered to help at the carnival.
She dressed in an M&M costume and served as a greeter and guide for the haunted forest.
"Hilltop makes it such a fun activity with lots of things to do and a dinner," Hall said.
Hilltop is a preschool, kindergarten and day-care program that serves 155 children on the University campus. An additional 50 children attend the program at Centennial and Sunflower elementary schools in Lawrence.
Because Halloween falls on a weekend this year, Barth said the center would have their school party today. The children will dress up and trick-or-treat on campus. Teachers also will have special activities in each classroom.
The center opened in 1972 with the purpose of caring for the children of University students, faculty and staff. It is only one of two child care programs in Lawrence to be nationally accredited. University students and researchers also use the center to conduct studies about young children.

Trick-or-treat, Governor
Missouri's leader invites children to a haunting event
The Associated Press
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. — The stately Missouri governor's mansion, by day the very image of inviting elegance, was transformed by night into a house of horrors with skeletons on the lawn and a scary giant spider dangling over the main entrance.
The chilling scene was all staged, of course, as part of Wednesday evening's sixth annual Mansion Spooktacular, established and hosted by Gov. Mel Carnahan and his wife, Jean
Carnahan credited the house's transformation to the assistance from Six Flags St. Louis. The amusement park arranged costumes, special effects, decorations

and not-too-scary inflated monsters, ghosts and oversized pumpkins, and even the Batmobile.
"It is really nice that the Carnahns do this for the kids," said Lisa Bradley of Holt's Summit, whose 1-year-old daughter, Alyssa, was wearing a leopard-snotted feline costume.
The governor, dressed as Uncle Sam, caused the small girl's blue eyes to widen as he greeted her in a soft voice. Carnahan defly adjusted his eight-inch-long, glued-on goatee, which wilted a bit in the unseasonably warm weather.
"This has been a real success," Carnahan said between handshakes for about 10,000 visitors. The first lady said she couldn't decide whether her character was dancing actor Gene Kelly or the

saluting sailor from the Cracker-jacks box.
The Carnahans settled on patriotic costumes, although their first choices were to come as Captain Hook and Peter Pan.
The couple's 9-year-old grandson, Austin Carnahan, put a halt to that; Carnahan said Austin noted that Captain Hook is mean to kids and grandpa isn't mean. so they wanted to be politically correct from a young person's view.
Even the governor's dog, a massive Newfoundland named Beaumont, greeted guests. The Carnahans' son, Randy, who dressed as a monk, said the dog's sleek, heavy black coat had been painted with white polka dots.
"But they've all been petted off," he said, as the heavyweight bound rolled on his side for more affection.
Fort Riley's spooks puzzle skeptics
The Associated Press
FORT RILEY — A teddy bear moves around a room when no one is there. Windows and doors open by themselves. A fire alarm goes off after it's been disconnected.
It's enough to make even the most skeptical wonder whether ghosts actually exist in the limestone homes of Fort Riley that once housed the likes of George Armstrong Custer and Philip Sheridan.
The public can judge for itself on Monday night while enjoying the Halloween atmosphere of Fort Riley's annual "Ghost Tour," a two-mile walk along some of the more famous of the haunted sites at the fort.
For example, visitors will learn about the mischievous "Teddy Bear ghost" of the Custer House.
Members of the Fort Riley Historical Society will be on hand to tell stories of the fort's ghosts.
The apparition is said to be responsible for moving a stuffed bear from the bed of the children's room in the museum to a rocking horse or a chair across the room virtually every night.
"The volunteers who cleaned the place got pretty spooked by that," said Karen Kryschal, coauthor of *Ghosts of Fort Riley*, *Past and Present*, a book produced by the Historical and Archaeological Society of Fort Riley. "They would make sure the bear was on the bed when they locked up, and they'd come back and find him somewhere else."
And, she said it is not unusual for the basement door to open when she approaches the stairs with her
Kryschtal, whose husband is third in command at Fort Riley, lives in one of the historic limestone homes. She tells the story of a window in her home that would open and close of its own accord — even when locked.
arms full of laundry baskets.
Tourists on Monday night likely will hear the story of the "Man in Buckskins," who has been seen by numerous residents at Scofield Barracks, and of the ghost of the Sutlers Quarters who was exorcised by a Catholic priest in a service several years ago.
And there's the most recent story — the fire alarms of Custer House that kept going off without apparent cause during last year's ghost tour. The first time the alarm sounded, fire officials checked the house and reset the alarm.
And when it sounded a third time, the firefighters joined the ranks of the many residents of Fort Riley who wonder about ghosts at the old Army post.
After the second alarm, they checked the house and, finding no cause for the alarm, disconnected it.
Ghosts, Bigfoot stories roam across Kansas
The Associated Press
PITTSBURG — There has been more than grass and buffalo on the Kansas prairie. For more than a century, ghosts, witches, werewolves, UFOs and even Bigfoot have been romping across the state.
Lisa Hefner Heitz has collected numerous ghost stories and legends into a book titled "Haunted Kansas," published by the University Press of Kansas. She recently discussed some of them in a presentation at the Pittsburg Public Library.
Heitz said she had been interested in fairy tales and spooky stories since childhood. Her interest intensified after she took a course in folklore as a part of her graduate work in American studies at the University of Kansas.
"When I grew up in Topcka, I heard our local legend about the 'Albino Woman' with long white hair and glowing red eyes, who supposedly haunted a cemetery north of Topka." Heitz said. "When I was in high school, we'd go out to the cemetery on weekends to look for the Albino Woman. I decided to write a paper on her and started doing research."
Heitz was fascinated to find that the legend was at least 30 years old when she first heard it and that the story had changed through the years.
"When I first heard of her, the Albino Woman was more sad and forlorn than frightening," Heitz said. "The story was that she was searching for her lost white poodle. I was surprised that my own daughter, who was then in high school, had also heard all about the Albino Woman, but by this time, the woman was more scary and the dog had changed to a German shepherd."
Heitz said the legend still persisted in Topeka, but the Albino Woman was now violent, even capable of eating children. Her dog was now a pit bull.
"I've heard it described as a oneeyed pit bull or even a headless dog." Heitz said.
She said she thought the character of the woman had become more violent because society had become more violent.
"Some elements of this story — or any legend or story — may mirror social concerns." Heitz said.
Her paper on the Albino Woman became the basis for her master's thesis and was also the seed from which her book grew.
"It occurred to me that if Topeka had such a legend, other communities across the state might have their own stories," Heitz said. "And, while stories from other states had been collected and written down, they hadn't been in Kansas. I immediately decided to jump in and fill that void."
Heitz said she began by sending mass mailings to libraries and museums across the state, asking about local legends and stories. She also began personally collecting stories and found that people were usually more than happy to share stories.
"I might go to a town, walk into a cafe, order a cup of coffee and ask the waitress about local stories," she said. "Almost without exception, they all have a story for me."
Bigfoot, when he's not prowling the Himalayas or the California redwood forests, likes to drop in on Kansas.
"We've got lots of Bigfoot stories in the state," Heitz said. "The most recent one I've found was from Lawrence just a few years ago."
Some ghost stories have their origins in actual people who were legendary while still alive.
For example, Heitz said, in Atchison there was a librarian who ruled her library with an iron hand, insisting that all procedures be carried out according to her standards. The librarian has been dead for years now, but some employees think that the woman's spirit still is watching over the library she loved so dearly.
So far, Heitz has surveyed 35 communities across the state. Based on her observations, she said that Atchison was probably the most haunted town she's studied so far.

Burning midnight oil helps some bubble with more productivity
Late-night studying working sometimes helpful to students
By Becky Lake Kansan Correspondent
Late at night when many non-college students are asleep in their bed, some University of Kansas student are up burning the midnight oil.
There are many different reasons why people stay up until late hours.
"I just function better at night," said freshman Katie Bartlett, Wilmette, Ill., freshman.
Bartlett said she found that staying up late was more conducive to studying effectively, especially while living in a residence hall.
"It's a lot quieter at night," she said. "In the morning, everybody is up and usually playing their radios."
Nikole Rowe, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said that if she was faced with a load of homework, she would rather tackle it later at night verses rising early in the morning.
"If I'm going to get less sleep, I'd rather do my homework when I'm already awake," she said.
Cassie Gilmore, Pittsburg, Kan. freshman, agreed.
"If I attempt to get up early in the morning, I'll put my work off and won't get it done," she said.
The extra hours of nighttime are
lifesawers for students who tend to procrastinate, especially during the week of midterms.
Overland Park sophomore Steve Scavuzzo pulled an all-nighter in order to study for his English midterm.
"I hadn't studied for my midterm yet, so I stayed up all night and drank coffee," he said. "If I need to get something done, I'll do it."
Scavuzzo's method of preparing for his midterm is not limited to just that midctic time of the year. He said he often went without a good night's rest and wasn't affected.
"Some nights I'll get two to three hours of sleep, and I can still function," he said.
Though staying up through the night can have its advantages, opposition with the rest of the working world can be uncomfortable.
Megan Bahm, Topeka sophomore works late as a resident assistant at Hashinger Hall. Although Bahm said she did not mind working late, she recognized the effect her hours had on her daytime schedule.
"Working late alters your sense of time. You don't work on the same time as the rest of mankind. I can't go to sleep before 3 a.m. anymore," she said.
Although some, like Bahm, become used to a consistent late night schedule, others simply have an ability to stay up late, or to naturally get up early. Physiology helps determine how long a person's body can last
"When you miss human sex class, you know your stuff is getting screwed up."

without sleep.
David Holmes, professor of psychology, described the process of the circadian rhythm, which dictates a person's sleep patterns.
"We all go through what's called a circadian rhythm. The day is organized on a 24-hour cycle but most people go on a 25-hour or more cycle," he said.
Holmes said that as the week progresses, the body's cycle gets thrown off later each day until the internal clock is reset, usually on Sunday.
"A person who is a 'morning person' probably has a shorter circadian rhythm," he said.
Lyle Dohl, Sylvan Grove sophomore, said missing class was the biggest indicator of how his lack of sleep negatively affected his life.
After working late as a resident assistant at Hashinger Hall, he said he sometimes would sleep through one of his favorite classes — human sexuality.
"When you miss human sex class, you know your stuff's getting screwed up," he said.

Not every student hates early morning
By Melody Carter
Kansan correspondent
It is popular wisdom that typically college students dread mornings. At the University of Kansas and the majority of other universities around the country, students start their mornings traveling to class on foot, bus, car or bicycle.
"People look so funny when they have just woken up," said Anne Marie Kauffman, Overland Park freshman. "I see students wearing their pajamas to class and basically looking like zombies."
But many students adore the campus in the morning for reasons such as going to professors' office hours, walking dogs or visiting one of the campus' food services.
The residence hall cafeterias begin serving breakfast between 6:45 and 7 a.m. Wescoe Terrace, on the first floor of the Wescoe building, opens at 7:30 a.m., and the Union food services begin serving at 7 a.m.
"I sometimes like to buy coffee and a doughnut at one of the Union food stands shortly after it opens, because I have really early morning classes everyday," said Heather Harring, Salina freshman.
Other students take advantage of the morning to exercise at Robinson Center, which has weight equipment and a swimming pool available for student use from 6 to 8 a.m. Cassie Gilmore, Pittsburg, Kan., freshman, said she went to Robinson in the morning because it closed after its initial morning hours and did not reopen again until the evening.
Some individuals wake up early simply for the pleasure of being awake and completing tasks.
"The morning is a beautiful time," said Tyrone Seymour, San Diego sophomore. "I like to take all my classes in the morning so that I can be finished and have the rest of the day to do what I want."
Others,however,regretted their decision to enroll in morning classes.
"I should not have signed up to take my courses so early in the morning," said Laurette Book, Denver freshman. "Half of the time I abuse the snooze button on my alarm clock and do not roll out of bed until class is over. I should have known I was not a morning person."
On the weekends, the face of the campus changes as the number of students is reduced significantly. Many people go home, sleep in or engage in other activities.
"Weekday or weekend, when I arrive here at at 6:30 a.m., the campus is pretty much desolate," said Pam Manning, KU custodial worker for 17 years. "As time progresses, it eventually wakes up. The campus is like one of those flowers that close up at night, and in the morning, when the light hits, the laughter and daily rituals begin. I like to stop and look around."

Downtown street pulse of Lawrence
by Aaron Fulk
Kansan correspondent
Shopping, eating and bar-hopping are all part of what makes up one of Lawrence's finest attractions-a street just known as Mass.
just known as Mass. Massachusetts Street, located downtown, has become the "Rodeo Drive" of Lawrence.
Lawrence. "The first time I ever came to Mass. Street was my senior year of high school," said Anna Daniels, Parsons junior. "I came with my friends for Crimson and Blue day. We skipped out on the activities and headed down to Mass. I was overwhelmed by the uniqueness that Mass. Street had to offer."
Shopping is one of Massachusetts Street's biggest outlets for the public.
"Mass. Street has the best collection of unique stores," said Annie Graham, Hutchinson sophomore. "You can find everything from rubber pants to artichoke dip and French films."
Dining is another feature that Mass has to offer. Restaurants on Massachusetts Street seem to veer away from the typical sit-down dining atmosphere inside.
insult.
"On Mom's Day for my fraternity, I went to Massachusetts Street Delicatessen and ate outside with my mom and grandma," said Chris Vetter, Shawnee sophomore. "It was a very
pleasant environment, and I enjoyed seeing all the different types of people walk by."
Dining outdoors is not the only change from the norm that Massachusetts offers. It also provides opportunities and choices that are healthier alternatives. Juice Stop, 812 Massachusetts St., provides quick, healthy snacks for on-the-go students.
"The Juice Stop is a fast and easy nutritious meal as an alternative to another fast-food restaurant such as McDonald's," said LeAnn VanMol, Bonner Springs sophomore.
There are also bars located on Massachusetts Street. Bars such as Louise's Bar Downtown, 1009 Massachusetts St., and Brown Bear Brewery, 729 Massachusetts St., provide entertainment and a social atmosphere for those older than 21.
21. "It's nice to have one specific location with so many different types of bars and clubs in the same vicinity," said Denise Hamalainen, Broken Arrow, Okla..
said Defne Hanukkah Broken Arrow, Okla. senior.
Granada offers students and Lawrence residents a chance to dance but also holds concerts and special events which draw more people to the club.
"We're a larger bar and have a big sound and light system that other clubs just don't have," said Eric Porter, Granada Theater bartender.

The street is also the home of 18-and-older bars, such as the Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St. The

Ghoulish number of parties for students during weekend
By Augustus Anthony Plazza Kansan staff writer
For students who haven't received a Halloween party invitation yet, there are still many places to go to celebrate the weekend.
Holiday Inn Holdome, 200 McDonald Drive, and Hi-Jinx Lunge, 1115 1/2 Massachusetts St., are two places where students can go to take part in Halloween festivities.
The International Student Association is having a Halloween party at the Holiday Inn Holidome, and there will be a gothic industrial music dance party called "Dreamatorium" at the Hi-Jinx Lounge. The ISA party will take place in the Brazilian Room at the Holiday Inn from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. tonight, and "Dreamatorium" will take place from 9 p.m. to 2 a.m. Saturday night.
The Halloween party is an event that ISA organizes each year.
ISA organizes 400 people attended. Organizers are expecting 400 to 500 people this year.
The lineup for "Dreamatiorium"
includes Schloss Teagle, an electronic
band from Lawrence that has played in many European clubs; Detmold Jugernaut, who will play dark ambient industrial music; and Deejay Ray Velasquez, who will play gothic industrial music and classic gothic music from the 1980s.
classic gothic hothien,
Velasquez said dark gothic electronica music was not a genre but a feeling that was experienced. He described the music as having a drum and bass sound.
as having a party Organizers said they weren't worried about competition from house parties this weekend.
Velasquez wasn't worried about the competition, either.
this weekend.
Vladimir Sinkov, International Student Association president, said the reason ISA was having the event on Friday night was to allow students to do what they wanted on Halloween night.
"I haven't even given that a thought," he said. "People who dig it will come out."
