Weekend rain dampens fun, games for students
Weather Service says precipitation should end today
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
Dampening the festivities of the football game and Halloween, rain started falling Saturday morning and continued throughout much of the weekend.
Bill Barlow, lead forecaster for the National Weather Service in Topeka, predicted the rain would finally taper off today around midday after pouring as much as six inches of rain in the area.
Two and a half to four inches fell from Saturday at midnight to 5 p.m. yesterday.
The National Weather Service issued a flood warning for the area yesterday that started at 9:30 a.m. and extended until 10 p.m.
Barlow said a flood warning was different from a flash flood warning in that a
flood warning usually occurs during extended rainfalls rather than thunderstorms.
"Flood warnings mean you should be alert around ...
dirt in the creeks and streams," he said. "And some roadways may be under water."
An operator at the Lawrence Police Department said there were no road closings in Lawrence as of

yesterday afternoon, but several roads were closed in areas outside of Lawrence in Douglas County.
Tim Wood, Overland Park sophomore, said he attended about half of the Kansas football game against K-State before leaving. He said that during the first quarter the rain was just drizzle, but by the second quarter, it was coming down harder.
"It wasn't too bad until you got completely saturated." Wood said.
Wood attended the game with a group of about 10 students. Several left the game, but some stuck it out until the end, he said. "A lot of people went to an apartment where the game was on," Wood said. "It was a lot drier and warmer there."
Barlow provided year-to-date rainfall totals for the Topeka area because Lawrence totals were not immediately available. He said 38 inches of rain had fallen so far this year, compared to the average of 32 inches for this time.
The year started out fairly dry through May but has reversed since then, he said. The change has been due to storms that were slow-moving but brought heavy rainfall.
Barlow said the hurricanes in other areas of the country had little or no effect on the rainfall here.
At least one area river is expected to go over its banks. Barlow predicted a crest of 25 feet in the Wakarau River, which is two feet above its flood stage.
"There will be a lot of runoff for the next 12 to 18 hours that will cause rivers and streams to rise." Barlow said.

EDITOR'S NOTE:
In the fall of 1995, Chancellor Robert Hemenway addressed University of Kansas faculty and staff during his first faculty convocation. In that speech, Hemenway outlined his vision of the University of Kansas—the vision of a great university. Hemenway said that for KU to be a great university, it must do 10 things in the coming years. To gauge the progress, the Kansan offers this "Chancellor Hemenway Grade Card," which includes a look at these 10 goals and a grade from those working to implement each one. The series will end with an evaluation from some University notables, such as Provost David Shulenburger and Kevin Yoder, student body president, and other members of the University community—students, faculty and staff.
Fewer National Merit Scholars decide to become Jayhawks
PETER GILMAN
"My vision of KU is that of a great university. To be
a great university we must .. increase the number of National Merit Scholars enrolling in the freshman class to 100 within the next five years. We will have to raise private scholarship funds to do so, but we will also need your commitment to the undergraduate experience."

Kansan staff writer
in 1995, Chancellor Robert Hemenway outlined his goals for the University in his convocation speech. Increasing the number of National Merit Scholars enrolled at the University to 100 was one of 10 things he wanted to accomplish by 2000.
Part of the Chancellor's 10-point plan suffered a setback this fall when the number of National Merit Scholars enrolled at the University of Kansas dropped by 25 students from last year.
Sixty-three scholars enrolled this fall down from 88 last year. The decrease ended a trend of a yearly increase that began in 1994. It was also the largest drop recorded since 1981, the earliest date records were available.
Although Hemenway said this year's numbers presented an obstacle in fulfilling the plan, he said he still thought it was an attainable goal. He said the University would have to take a more aggressive approach to recruiting the scholars.
Hemenway said that members of the faculty and the administration had been thinking of new ways this fall to lure more National Merit Scholars to the University, and that scholarship packages might make the University more competitive.
"There has been some discussion about the size of the scholarships." Hemenway said. "We have been offering good-sized scholarships, but other institutions have been offering more. One of the things we could do is increase the size of our scholarship so it is closer to a free ride."
Currently, the University's scholarship for National Merit Scholarships is $5,000, with the possibility of more money made available on a financial-need basis.
agreed that the goal was attainable and said the University boosted National Merit Scholar enrollment by nearly 30 in 1987.
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions,
"I would say that fluctuation in this kind of recruiting is not unusual," he said. "We'll see what happens, but I think we should see the goal realized."
Cerveny said numbers varied from year to year, and increases and decreases could be larger as the number of scholars enrolled increased.
Cerelysa said age probably would help sway more of the National Merit Scholars who considered more than one comparable school, but he also said the University had done a good job of picking up people for reasons other than money.
"We are looking at ways to
Cerveny said a bigger scholarship pack-
Chancellor's grade:
(incomplete)
Cerveny did not feel comfortable giving the chancellor a letter grade.
create a more enticing package," he said. "I know that we have some students saying that the scholarship package at another school is bigger, but they (really) like KU."
Pamela Wyssenbach, Wichita freshman, was a National Merit Scholar who chose the University not for the scholarship package but for the convenience of an instate school and options offered on campus.
She said that she was offered more money elsewhere, but that she liked the academic opportunities and the environment she found at KU.
Watson Library remains open
Generator is power source after transformer blows
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
A large generator feeding power to Watson Library might cause students walking by to notice more noise than usual today.
The generator is replacing the lost power of a missing transformer, which burned out about 4:30 p.m. Thursday.
The library reopened Friday morning, but the transformer has not been fixed.
"We've been searching nationwide to try and get another transformer," said Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations. "We're going to Lyons, Kan., Monday to look at one that they have there."
Porter said that if the transformer in Lyons could replace the one that is broken, then the replacement cost would be about $6,000 plus transportation and installation charges. Using the Lyons transformer would also allow the replacement to be done within the week.
If the Lyons transformer doesn't fit, then the University would have to have another one made, which would cost at least $18,000. Porter said that making another transformer could take a few weeks.
Watson has two transformers in the building. The one that burned out handled the air conditioning, the ventilation and most of the electricity.
Porter said that facilities operations'
employees thought that the transformer had problems because of the campus power failure Wednesday.
A blown transformer at 19th and Louisiana streets caused about half the buildings on campus to lose power Wednesday, Porter said. He said that the blown transformer also put stress on Watson's transformer.
He said that one of three windings directed into the transformer's core caught on fire and burned.
Dan Magill, Keller, Texas, freshman, said that Thursday evening he tried to go to Watson, but it was closed.
"It was really inconvenient because I had caught the campus night express at about 10 p.m." Magill said. "When I got there and saw that it was closed, I had to wait about 30 minutes for the next bus."
Magill said that he needed to do research about welfare for an English 101 paper. The assignment was supposed to be due today, but his teacher extended the deadline because of the problems at Watson.
"I still need to go to the library," Magill said. "Hopefully, everything will be up and running."
The weekend's rainstorm shouldn't cause any additional problems to the generator. Porter said that the generator was designed for outside wear and tear.
"If this rain would just stop, it would help," he said. "We tend to have extra problems after a hard rain."
wason Library is open from 8 a.m. to midnight Monday through Thursday; 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Friday; 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to midnight Sunday.

STATE Heavy rains in Kansas cause emergency state
WICHITA — Heavy rains in southeast Kansas have caused severe flooding and has forced the evacuation of dozens of homes, officials said.
A state of local emergency was declared yesterday in Butter and Sedgwick counties, where more than eight inches of rain had fallen since Friday.
The hardest-hit areas were Whitewater, Augusta and El Dorado in Butler County and Wichita and Colwich in Sedwick County.
No injuries were reported.
Some unofficial rainfall gauges detected as much as 11 inches of rain in the northern part of Butler County, said Jim Schmidt of the county emergency management office.
About 100 homes were voluntarily evacuated throughout Butler County. Most of the evacuations were in Augusta and near low-lying areas in Andover, Cassoday and El Dorado, Schmidt said.
The evacuations began about 9:30 p.m. Saturday and continued through yesterday morning, said Jack Kegley, deputy director of the Sedgwick County Emergency Management office.
NATION Medical licensing easier for doctors in military
DAYTON, Ohio — Not all military doctors are required to meet the same standards as their civilian counterparts, despite the efforts of Congress and the Defense Department, a new study says.
As many as a dozen states have set up special licensing procedures for military doctors that free them from meeting all the requirements demanded of civilian doctors, the newspaper said.
Most safeguards protecting civilians from medical malpractice do not exist for members of the military or, in many cases, for their spouses and children, the study reported.
Military doctors usually cannot be sued by their patients, are not required to have malpractice insurance and do not have to be licensed in the states where they practice, the newspaper said.
WORLD Protestant gang admits to killing man in Ireland
BELFAST, Northern Ireland — A new Protestant gang opposed to Northern
Ireland's prevailing cease-fires claimed responsibility yesterday for killing a Catholic civilian.
A caller representing the Red Hand Defenders told the British Broadcasting Corp.'s office in Londonderry that the group shot 35-year-old Brian Service as he walked home alone early Saturday on Beafall's rough north side. The caller also claimed responsibility for another gun attack at a pub in Catholic west Beafall in which nobody was hurt.
The killing demonstrates a new dissident threat to discipline within the ranks of Northern Ireland's outlawed pro-British groups: the Ulster Defense Association, Ulster Volunteer Force and Red Hand Commando.
Pro-British paramilitary groups have killed more than 900 people in a three-decade campaign designed to match violence committed by the Irish Republic Army.
SEOUL, South Korea — An Army vehicle plunged off a bridge into a river in South Korea on Saturday, killing four American servicemen and a South Korean soldier, the U.S. military command said.

Vigil to protest against freeina Chilean dictator
LONDON — Dozens of campaigners staged a vigil outside Parliament yesterday, urging Britain not to free former Chilean dictator Gen. Augusto Pinochet.
The 82-year-old Pinochet was arrested Oct. 16 at a London clinic on a Spanish warrant seeking his extradition on charges of murder, kidnapping and torture during his 17-year rule.
Britain's High Court ruled last week that the arrest was illegal because, as a former head of state, Pinochet is immune from prosecution.
ON THE RECORD
A report by Chile's democratically elected government says more than 3,000 people were killed or disappeared during Pinochet's rule.
A judge on Friday granted bail to Pinochet, who underwent back surgery Oct. 9. He remains under police guard.

Victims of hurricane found in Nicaragua
The Associated Press
Authorities feared that many more bodies would be found in 10 communities at the foot of the Casitas Volcano in northern Nicaragua.
MANAGUA, Nicaragua — Rescue workers recovered hundreds of bodies yesterday from communities buried when a lake in a volcano crater overflowed and sent tons of mud and rock hurtling down villages below. The finds boosted the death toll from former hurricane Mitch to 978.
Mitch was one of the most violent hurricanes to hit the Caribbean, causing heavy rain and floods as it cut a fatal path along the coasts of Honduras, Nicaragua and other Central American countries.
The first army rescue helicopters to reach the volcano yesterday found widespread destruction, army spokesman Capt. Milton Sandoval said. Rescue workers recovered 360 bodies in four villages near Posoltega, about 50 miles north of Managua.
A river of mud and rubble collapsed on the villages Friday after a crater lake near the volcano's peak overflowed and caused part of the mountain to crumble. Sandoval said.
In Honduras, at least 231 deaths have been blamed on Mitch, the National Emergency Commission said.

Only 92 of the estimated 2,000 area residents were found alive, some injured, and the remainder were listed as missing. Sandoval said.

Halloween festivities foil community service effort
By Steph Brewer
Kanson staff writer
Community service apparently wasn't the first thing on many students' minds this Halloween weekend.
Ghouls' Night Out, a Friday night concert sponsored by the University of Kansas Center for Community Outreach, fall short of its mission to raise money for local food banks.
The concert, which featured area bands The Band that Saved the World, Arthur Dodge, Fear and Whiskey and Four Miles, was held from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m. at Liberty Hall. Admission was $3 plus two cans of non-perishable food or $5 without cans. All the proceeds were to go to five food banks in Lawrence, but
Two hundred and seventy people attended the event, bringing 800 cans that will be given to the food banks. Hess said that despite the lack of monetary proceeds and a few glitches in the evening caused by late bands, the event went well.
"People ended up having a really good time after waiting around a bit," he said.
Kate Turnbull, a center volunteer and Lawrence junior, said she thought the event raised community awareness.
"I think it's good because it makes a lot of people in the Lawrence community, college students particularly, aware of the needs these food banks have," Turnbull said.
Hess said that despite the small turnout, he would like to see the concert established as an annual event with one change — he wouldn't hold it on Halloween weekend.
The event was well publicized, with posters and advertisements on KLZR and in the University Daily Kansan, but Hess said that there were many competing events such as parties and haunted houses.
"I just think there was so much to do on that weekend," he said.

Barrage of ads to end campaigns
By Chad Bettes
Kanson staff writer
Just one day until campaign-free TV. But what a last day it will be.
Candidates vying for elected office will take to the airwaves and streets today in the candidates' last opportunity to reach Kansans before they go to the polls tomorrow.
Today, Gov. Bill Graves will be in Wichita assessing the flood damage, said Greg Musil, chairman of the Graves campaign in Johnson County. Graves had planned to make campaign stops in Overland Park, Pittsburg, Topeka, Wichita and Salina.
The governor also will use the media to campaign. Television, radio and newspaper ads throughout the state will feature Graves thanking Kansans for the four years he has served as governor and asking for four more years.
"He'll basically be asking them to vote and do their
patriotic duty," said cam paign manager Jeff Waga man.
State Rep. Tom Sawyer, the Democratic challenger for governor, tonight will end an ambitious tour in which he will have visited 22 cities in four days. His final day of campaigning will be spent in Arkansas City, Winfield, El Dorado, Emporia, Newton and Wichita.
Jack Martin, communications coordinator of Sawyer's campaign and Abilene junior, said Sawyer found people receptive to his message. He said Sawyer started behind in the campaign but hoped to edge ahead in the end.
The Sawyer campaign will utilize television ads in Wichita, Topeka and Pittsburg, but a shortage of funds has prevented Sawyer from running ads in the expensive Kansas City media market.
E L E C T I O N 98
sawyer's radio ads will run across the state, but there will be no newspaper advertising.
In the 3rd District congressional race, U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger and Democratic challenger Dennis Moore plan similar last-day strategies.
Both sides will run television and ads. Snowbarger's ads will feature endorsements from Graves and former U.S. Sen. Bob Dole. Issues addressed in the television ads will be Moore's stance on tax cuts and Snowbarger's appeal to senior citizens.
Moore's ads will focus on Snowbarger's voting record and Social Security. The radio ads will feature actor Robert Redford endorsing
Snowbarger will campaign in Johnson County; Moore will be in Wyandotte County.
Moore.
In Lawrence, county commission candidates Charles Jones and Brian Kubota will walk door-to-door and run their final ads, including ads in local newspapers.
Jones, the Democratic candidate, said that by tonight he will have walked the entire district getting to know voters.
"I'll just put on my rain suit and go." he said.
He will finish the day by making phone calls from Douglas County Democratic Headquarters.
Kubota, the Republican candidate, said he will walk the district during the day and fix yard signs along the way. At night, he plans on relaxing as much as he can to ease the anticipation of tomorrow's vote.
"I'll probably watch some football,"Kubota said.
Alumni, true to their school help KU graduates find jobs
By Jamie Knodel
Special to the Kansan
The corporate recruiter for American Backhaulers in Chicago, Ed Shager, has returned to the University of Kansas twice a semester for the past year and a half, bringing jobs for KU students with him.
Shager, who graduated from the University in 1993, is not the only alumnus returning to recruit students. Alumni from regional and national corporations alike are making their KU connection work.
Alumni say they are eager to return to the University, said Trudy Lutz, office manager for the business school's career placement office.
Although there are not records on how many former Jayhawks come back to their alma mater bearing jobs, more than 60 alumni returned for the business career fair Sept. 17 and 18. Lutz said.
"For them, it's like going back home," she said. "When they recruit other students, it gives them a feeling of taking ownership with the school and with their jobs."
She said alumni recruited KU students because of the loyalty the graduates feel to the University.
"There is a sense of camaraderie between people who graduate from the same school."
she said. "The alums are happy with their jobs and want other Jayhawks to have the same great opportunities they've had."
Since Shager took the recruiting position last year, he has recruited 20 U alumni to sales positions at American Backhaulers.
Like Shager, alumni recruit KU graduates because of their familiarity with the educational background of students. Alumni also respect the quality of the University's programs, said Lavonne Seifert, career development coordinator at the Journalism Career Center.
"It provides you with a credential that is recognized," she said.
Although many alumini formally recruit KU students, the KU connection also can hook up students on an informal basis.
Lutz said the business school provides company names, locations and phone numbers of alumni so students can network.
Seifert pointed out that Kansas City has more KU graduates than graduates from any other college, so the odds are better that alumni will interview a student.
She said the bond between students and alumni during interviews can seal job offers.
"They have something in common on the personal level. It breaks the ice," she said. "Alums send a message to the students they are interviewing that they can be successful, too."

Voters should seek information about alternative party candidates
Children and voters have one thing in common: Both are taught not to mark outside the lines. Although a kindergartner may be frowned upon for going outside the lines in a coloring book, voters have a responsibility to consider making marks outside the party lines on their ballots.
Most Americans are unaware of the smaller parties that exist in our political system. These parties are small for a reason: Their views and platforms often put them too far left or right for voters to agree with them. However, the ideas brought forth by groups such as the Reform, Taxpayers or Libertarian parties are as worthy of examination by voters as any from Republicans or Democrats.
Most Americans have expressed
The Reform, Taxpayers and Libertarian parties are just a few of the alternate possibilities.
some degree of apathy for the political system. In many elections, less than 20 percent of those registered will vote, and programs such as Rock The Vote have been created simply to get disinterested, potential voters registered.
Candidates in small parties have equally small budgets. Therefore, they are not able to bring their names and views to voters as well as their competitors. Because of this information gap, voters who might support a small-party candidate may
never hear about all their choices.
Voters should take it on themselves
to examine all candidates so they
might find a few they believe in.
Voters may even wish to go a step further than looking for the less-publicized candidates by writing in votes for candidates who are not on the ballot.
All three of the smaller parties with candidates in Kansas elections this year have Web sites. The Libertarian Party homepage can be found at www.lp.org, the Reform Party at www.reformparty.org and the Taxpayer Party at www.ustaxpayers.org. Each of these parties has candidates competing in elections that Lawrence residents will help decide.

Movie discount far-reaching for Senate
Hollywood Theaters' recent decision to offer University students a discount showed just how beneficial our student government can be when it decides to put its clout behind an attainable goal that benefits the entire student body.
The first obvious benefit of Hollywood's change will be felt in student's pockets. As ticket prices have spiraled upward at sickening rates, many students have given up on movie theaters and instead wait months for the relatively inexpensive video rental. Senate passed a resolution condemning the closing of the dollar movie theater in Lawrence and made calls to Hollywood Theater's headquarters in Dallas. The movie chain responded by instituting a stu
Student Senate's petitioning of Hollywood Theaters achieved tangible results for students.
dent discount that brought the price of a ticket down to $4.75 from $6.
Student Senate also benefits. The representative body should be applauded for getting results. Too often, Student Senate strives for unrealistic goals. An example of this is the resolution supporting a lowered drinking age in Kansas, or is mired in bureaucratic necessities. In petitioning Hollywood Theaters, Student Senate has flexed the muscle it always has had but rarely used.
heavily on the minds of city legislators, but the discount accomplishes something that Senate has had trouble doing for years—showing the student body that Student Senate is important.
Perhaps movie prices do not weigh
Senators have been fighting hard to increase the meager turnout on Senate election day. By showing tangible results, Senate may begin to reverse tepid feelings toward the student legislative process. Affordable ticket prices may not be a hot-button issue, but it does a great job of promoting Student Senate — as well as relieving an economic burden on students. Hopefully, Senate will accomplish more things like this in the future. Student Senate should be applauded for doing something beneficial for all students.

Perspective
Gun aficionados turn hobby into obsession
W when you move into a different apartment, you often find a little present from the previous resident. Perhaps it is a used syllabus stuck in a closet, or, if you
are really lucky, the tail end of a magazine subscription.
Jonathan Huskey
opinion@kansan.com
M. BERGAMBAR
The gift I have been receiving has been a little more unnerving. I guess the guy living in my little apartment before me was a big gun aficionado. I'm not talking about *Field and Stream* or even *Guns and Ammo*. This dude was on some serious catalog lists, including *Delta Force* (not the campus politics, but the movie) and *Commando* (again, like the movie).
With each new arrival, the gravity of the magazine increases. At first, it was outdoor catalogs with camo gear. Now, I can order Advanced Ultimate Sniper on VHS. Although I appreciate "sniper equipment with [a] laser finder." I don't understand how it is an "art" as the advertisement claims. Or how about the "Grenade Launching System" (It comes with 10 grenades for only $34.95).
The whole industry seems legally suspect in much the same way as the "tobacco accessories" sold in specialty shops. There is no point in smoking tobacco out of a "water pipe." just as it is stupid to hunt a deer with an automatic rifle. Although technically legal, the sale of these products practically is guaranteed to facilitate illegal pastimes.
If you've never seen these kinds of catalogs, many accessories scream illegal. A legal gun can be altered or you can build your own by purchasing separate parts. The "Hellstorm 2000" which "legally converts most semi-automatic rifles to shoot like an automatic" is an obvious middle finger to federal laws.
There are three types of sassy models in the aforementioned Delta Force. First, there is the woman in a bikini who does her duty by embracing the the ultimate phallic symbol — an SK-47. Then we have the fully fatigued Green Beret wanna-be complete with grenades and face paint. Finally, there is the confused deer-in-the-scopelights look of a multiple holster-wearing professional. Folks, this stuff ain't normal; orange hunting vests are one thing, but Kevlar body armor is another.
If the people who actually order from these catalogs are as nutty as the "models" in them, then we have some huge problems on our hands.
Call it what you will, a bong is a bong is a bong. Now, I don't want to equate smoking pot with hunting government agents. I'd sleep a lot better if the former tenant of my apartment were into ganja rather than grenades. A stash in the medicine cabinet would be a better surprise than a letter bomb in the wall.
An incumbent state senator was getting ready to take a group of children on a havride when he allegedly was killed by Byron Looper, his Republican opponent, with a gun blast. That should freak everyone out once they get beyond being dumfounded by the sheer lunacy of the crime.
Why couldn't this guy be into Dungeons and Dragons or something? Instead, he had to be on the Kansas Militia's mailing list, and I have to be aware of a subculture that scares the bejeezus out of me.
I hope that my gun-loving friend is seeking help in a professional setting, because what happened in Tennessee last week is an example of how a nutball plus rife equals disaster.
Regardless of what kind of gun it was, I bet Looper has spent some time with a Commando catalog. It's a short walk between hunting an elk and shooting humans in the back. The catalogs I have seen suggest that it can be traversed with a COD item.
Guns have been a sad part of the rugged American character. Perhaps it is time we let go of the myth that guns are important items to our collective mentality. Once we do that, maybe we can let go of another correlative emotion: fear.

'Hate crime' legislation could lead to censorship
In the wake of the murder of Matthew Shepard, the political animals already are feeding on the tragedy. The cry for an expansion of national "hate crime" legislation has been sounded. Even in our fair state the pleading for a change in the laws has begun.
Before we jump into the morass of "hate crime" laws with both feet, perhaps we should consider whether such changes in our criminal justice system will be effective and to what extent we should give the government the power to punish crimes based on personal beliefs.
The reasoning seems to be that if we fail to pass a new law expanding the power of government, then we are somehow condoning the murder.

opinion of kansan.com
What, exactly, is the "Hate Crimes Prevention Act" intended to accomplish? Apparently two things — to expand federal jurisdiction into the area of "hate crimes" and to provide increased penalties for those who commit crimes based on hatred of a protected group.
Increased penalties for committing hate crimes is clearly irrelevant to the reduction of intolerance. Neither Matthew Shepard nor James Byrd would have been protected by "hate crimes" laws. Why not? Because both Wyoming and Texas have the death penalty for first-degree murder. I'm not certain what type of increased punishment the proponents of "hate crime" laws would like to see. But if the persons guilty of these two murders were not impressed by the death penalty, I doubt any kind of increased punishment would be a more effective deterrent.
Granted, only a small number of "hate crimes" involve murder. Most "hate crimes" (a nebulous term at best) involve vandalism, criminal threat or battery. The problem with increasing the penalties for these crimes is determining when they are
Finally, we must consider what price we are willing to pay to reach our goal of tolerance. To what degree are we willing to expand governmental control to achieve harmony? David Brown, a representative of the ACLU said, "I regret that we live in a society that encourages and gives permission to hate." Perhaps he is suggesting that "permission to hate" be taken away from the citizens of this country.
I'm not certain what he means by the "encourages" part, but I would not like to live in a society that doesn't give permission to hate. Certainly not one in which the government controls the hateful thoughts and non-criminal actions of its citizens The adoption of "hate crime" laws seems like a fruitless step down that path.
Not only will passage of a federal, or even state, "hate crime" statute be ineffective, it will be damaging to the very people it's intended to protect. By separating certain groups and giving them special protection, we create a threefold perception: that we focus on the differences among our society, that some groups in our society deserve more protection under the law than others, and that protected groups are unable to stand up for themselves.

based on "hate" and when the crime is caused by something else. Prosecutors and judges already have a great deal of discretion in penalties based on aggravating factors. They are elected officials and are accountable to the voters. Certainly, influencing the behavior of local judges and prosecutors, the people actually responsible for meting out punishments, would be a more effective means of curtailing the less sensational "hate crimes" (those that don't make national news) as opposed to a sweeping federal regulation.
Everyone's favorite attorney general, Janet Reno, said that such legislation was needed to send a clear message "that hate crimes will not be tolerated." So why not pass the law just to make a point?
Feedback
Hazing victims not completely innocent
Perhaps I'm just missing something in the whole antihazing movement, but since when did pledging a fraternity or sorority or joining a team sport become mandatory? If hazing is such a terrible thing, then why do people continue to degrade and humilate themselves by joining a group that
participates in hazing? The decision to join, or attempt to join, a frat or team sport is purely up to the individual. Is it that people do not have the common sense to realize that the activity they're participating in could humiliate and/or injure them?
As part of the "greek community," can you really expect people to respect you or your fraternity if you had to run across campus naked (or some
similarly degrading task) in order to join the fraternity in the first place? What it all boils down to is: Don't Be Stupid. Follow the rules you learned in kindergarten. If a person asks you to do something you don't feel comfortable doing, don't do it. It shows a severe lack of judgement to volunteer oneself to such behavior.

Clinton attorney might testify
The Supreme Court will make a decision about privileged talks
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - For nine months President Clinton has thwarted prosecutor Kenneth Starr's efforts to question Clinton's closest alide about their confidential talks on the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Now the courts and Congress may force the issue.
The Supreme Court could decide as early as today whether to hear Clinton's claim that attorney-client privilege protects his discussions with deputy White House counsel Bruce Lindsey, which an appeals court has rejected.
Republican impeachment investigators are talking about adopting a rule making clear that they don't honor claims of attorney-client privilege or executive privilege to shield presidential aides from testifying.
Many of the questions that have gone unanswered relate to whether Clinton tried to obstruct justice or tamper with
witnesses for either Paula Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit or Starr's investigation. The president has denied telling anyone to lie.
Lindsey says Lewinsky's connection to the Paula Jones case first came to his attention Dec. 6.
During breaks in Clinton's Jan. 17 deposition for the Jones suit, the president told Lindsey that the lawyers were pepping him with questions about his relationship with Lewinsky.
That evening, Lindsey met with Clinton in the Oval Office. Also that evening, Clinton contacted presidential secretary Betty Currie and instructed her to come to the White House the next day.

Starr's impeachment report alleges that Clinton was attempting to influence Currie's testimony.

and Lindsay's conversations with Clinton on Jan.17.
"At any of these meetings that occurred that day Did Betty Currie's name come un?" a prosecutor asked Lindsev.
"Again, I don't believe I can respond to that ... because of the presidential communication privilege; the deliberative process privilege, officially; and the attorney-client work product doctrine, both personally and officially," Lindsey said before the grand jury.
While pursuing attorney-client privilege, Clinton dropped the claim of executive, or presidential communication, privilege for Lindsey.
"The president repeatedly and unlawfully invoked the executive privilege to conceal evidence of his personal misconduct from the grand jury," Starr's report concluded. The White House said Clinton was seeking to safeguard all presidents' needs for confidential advice.
Hamas threatens violence against Arafat, Israel
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — The military arm of the radical Islamic group Hamas made an unprecedented threat yesterday against Yasser Arafat, demanding that the Palestinian leader halt a crackdown against it or face violent vengeance.
The threat, in a leaflet sent in a fax to news organizations, cast a pall on this week's efforts to begin implementing the Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement, but as of yesterday, both sides still were pledging to move ahead as scheduled.
Akratas security forces have rounded up more than 100 Hamas activists, detained some of its top political leaders and put its allied, charismatic founder, Sheik Ahmed Yassin, under house arrest.
That crackdown — and the Hamas demand to halt it — marked a smashup of the uneasy peace that had prevailed between Arafat and Hamas during the past 14 months, ever since Yassin was released from Israeli prison and returned to his faithful following in the Gaza Strip.
Until now, in deference to Arafat's enduring role as a symbol of Palestinian unity, Hamas had stopped short of direct threats against him. But the leaflet specifically accused the Palestinian leader of treason by moving against Hamas.
It called for an immediate end to the crackdown in order to spare Palestinians the horrors of civil war.
With so many Hamas officials in jail, few were available to vouch for the leaflet's authenticity, and none wanted to do so publicly. But its language, style and phrasing were
markedly similar to past communications from Hamas' military wing.
One Palestinian government official — Imad Falouj, the communications minister and a former Hamas member — said he doubted the threats were real.
Arafat: Security forces are cracking down on Hamas.
Falouji has been trying to act as a mediator between Arafat and Yassin.
Paiestinian security officials took the warnings seriously and issued some of their own in response.
"We have only one authority in this land, which is the Palestinian Authority," said Palestinian police commander Ghazil Jabali. "We are going to take all measures to control the situation."
The leaflet denounced the house arrest of Yassin and warned Palestinian security forces against pursuing Mohammed Deif, a top leader of Hamas' military wing whose arrest has been demanded by Israel.
Under the accord, Palestinians are to undertake a series of security-related measures in exchange for another 13.1 percent of the West Bank by Israel.
Strong steps by Arafat against Islamic militants are a key provision of the Washington pact.
The Palestinian side said it would deliver a promised security document to the United States today, and the Israeli Cabinet is to begin discussing the accord tomorrow and vote then or Wednesday.
Discovery crew releases satellite without Glenn
The Associated Press
SPACE CENTER, Houston — Space shuttle Discovery's astronauts set loose a sun-gazing satellite yesterday for two days of scientific flight, accomplish what another crew failed to do last year.
Two tense minutes passed before the crew radioed down the good news: The Spartan satellite was free of Discovery and twirling exactly as planned.
"Spartan is in the maneuver," said Discovery's commander, Curtis Brown Jr.
John Glenn did not have an active role in the Spartan release; the schedule had him wrapping up a workout on the stationary cycle at that time.
NASA Administrator Daniel Goldin praised the 77-year old senator's performance aboard Discovery and insisted once again that the first American to orbit the Earth was back in space not for publicity purposes but for valuable geriatric research.
"America owed him a second flight," he said. Goldin promised to send more seniors into space if the research warranted it.
Goldin said he had asked physicians in the aging community to evaluate Glenn's flight to see whether there are differences between Glenn and space travelers in their 40s, 50s and early 60s.
"Within a year or two, we expect to get results, and if they recommend that it's scientifically meritorious to send aging people into space, we're going to do it." he said.
Goldin said he had been contacted by older Americans in the past week who wanted to go into space.
kinds in the past week who wanted to go into space.
The astronaut overseeing the research aboard Discovery, Stephen Robinson, used Discovery's 50-foot robot arm to drop Spartan overboard, with help from Scott Parazynski on the computers. The 3,000-pound satellite did a pirouette as it and Discovery soared in formation 340 miles above Baja California — an indication that everything was working. The commander then slowly backed the shuttleaway.
They'll retrieve the satellite tomorrow after it has collected images of the sun's outer atmosphere, the corona and the charged particles streaming from the sun out into space.
The $11 million satellite was supposed to conduct these observations last November. The astronauts on that mission failed to send a crucial command to Spartan before releasing it. When they tried to latch back onto it with the shuttle robot arm, they sent the craft into a wild tumble. Two astronauts then had to go out on a risky space walk to catch it.
To make sure that didn't happen again, NASA improved the computer software used to operate Spartan, arranged better views of the satellite release for the astronauts and spent more time training them for the job.

Cake album has more layers than last one
By T.R. Miller Kansan music critic
Cake's third album promises to deliver 13 songs in the grand Cake tradition — rife with vocal harmonies and heavy on wry humor. After the success of Fashion Nugget, Cake would be wise not to wander far from the quirky and catchy tunes that first made the band popular. The new release does just that, which may
take away points for originality and difficulty. But Prolonging the Magic makes us for it simply.
Cake, Prolong the Magic
Kansan rating: ***** out of *****
upor it simply because it's good listening.
If it ain't broke, why fix it?
Cake's first single from the album, *Never There*, successfully combines human irony with humor. The new album does show a darker side lyrically. Singer John McCrea laments his unrequited love in this song with common metaphors that everyone can understand.
"Sometimes I wonder if you even miss me / You're never there," he sings. Surely not a forthcoming song, but hands like Cake are good at
making self-absorption and self-wallow a common, yet manageable theme.
Satan Is My Motor is one of my favorites on the album. Featuring guest guitarist Tylor Pope the song has a total sing-along quality that is

Packaging the Magic
almost annoyingly infectious. The singer confesses his own negative traits but defends himself by saying that through his vices, he has come to understand the importance of virtue. This concept sounds so much like a western civilization paper topic that I begin to shudder. Nevertheless, while you're dancing around your room or singing in your car to Satan, Cake is using music as a vehicle for critical thinking.
Strains of country and mariachi influences are scattered about the album. Guitar features a musical saw and several songs use pedal steel to enhance the flavor.
As successful as Fashion Nugget was, Cake's rap and trumpet integration made audiences think of Cake as a novelty band. Cake's willingness to expand itself musically goes to show that the band may be more than a one-hit wonder after all.

SUA brings museum of famous magazine covers to campus
"The magazine is a cultural icon," said Anthony DeCurtis, contributing editor of the magazine, who will be speaking and answering questions on Rolling Stone and the magazine industry at 7 tonight in the Kansas Union Ballroom. "The exhibit explores the relationship of writing to image."
Starting today, University of Kansas students can take a peek at John Lennon in the buff with Yoko Ono and Madonna's golden bra from her Blond Ambition tour, all in the atmospheric ambience of dim lights and neon-yellow display cases.
The exhibit will also contain taped interviews with rock and roll legends, copies of magazine articles and memorabilia from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum, which has been sponsoring the tour with AT&T.
The magazine, which has 1.2 million subscribers, extends pretty deeply among music fans, said DeCurtis, who has written 16 cover stories for the magazine and has won a 1988 Grammy Award for "Best Album Notes" on Eric Clapton's Crossroads.
Rolling Stone display reflects its history
The AT&T Rolling Stone Covers Tour, a traveling museum of more than 250 covers of the magazine and rock'n' roll memorabilia, is berthed at the University for a week-long exhibit that ends Thursday.
The tour was conceived last year to mark 30 years of the magazine's existence and has traveled throughout American campuses, Curtis said.
While several KU students have grown up reading the magazine, some consider it to be a sell-out in recent years.
"In the 1960's and 1970's, the magazine wrote about musicians that one didn't hear on the radio," said Billy Page, McPherson freshman. "Now it's more mainstream."
DeCurtis said that in past exhibits, the magazine's mainstream content was often a subject of discussion. Its critics accuse it of not being cutting-edge enough and its fans are curious about what it took for an erstwhile underground magazine to make it big commercially.
"People say 'why do you put naked girls on the cover' and those kinds of things," he said. "But then we also have a big subscriber base of 1.2 million readers."
Sharon Bass, associate professor of journalism has followed the career of Fred Woodward, Rolling Stone art director, and said that the importance of the magazine lies in the political articles it has written over the years, some of which will be on display at the exhibit.
"Early on, it created a niche for itself," she said. "It reaches an awful lot of people."
The free event is organized by Student Union Activities and will be open to the public from 11 am to 7 p.m. at the Kansas Union Ballroom.

Rollin Stone
A film about Rollin Stone, a legendary rock star, is being considered for a television show. The show should explore his life and career, including his music and style. What would be the most effective way to convey these themes to a TV audience?

Commentary
Technicolor restores Wizard of Oz amid controversy
By Michael Fleeman The Associated Press
UNIVERSAL CITY, Calif. — So maybe Rhett and Scarlett were a little fuzzy at last summer. Rest assured, Technicolor says, this fall the Munchkins will look fabulous.
The color lab that restored Gone With the Wind amid controversy and disappointment insists this time the job was done right with The Wizard of Oz, which Warner Bros. is rereleaseing Nov. 6.
"It will blow you away," says Tim Reynolds, senior vice president of plant operations for Technicolor.
"These colors are brighter. They're more distinct. The detail is greater," says veteran technician Richard J. Goldberg, who oversaw the restoration.
Of course, this is coming from the same Technicolor lab involved in last summer's troubled Gone With the Wind restoration. Filmoogers complained large portions of the movie were out of focus and the sound wasn't properly synchronized.
These complaints triggered finger-pointing and denials. Technicolor said New Line Cinema, which re-released the film, imposed a substandard restoration system on the lab. New Line suggested the problems were isolated, overstated by the
media and quickly fixed, though theater-goers continued to report problems.
For Oz, technicians used a different and they say, better restoration technique working from the original negative.
achieve a maximum color impact.
The risk is that Technicolor opens itself to criticism that it has overdone it, turning $Oz$ into the first colorized color movie by making Munchkinland more vivid than the original filmmakers envisioned. It is a suggestion Goldberg rejects.
"Is this what they intended? I don't know, dig them up and ask them," Goldberg said. He contends the filmmakers would not have used so many bright sets and so many brilliant costumes if they didn't want to
For Warner Bros., which acquired Oz, much is riding on the film. The studio has put out a string of financially disappointing films this year.
The re-release is particularly risky because Warner Bros. is gambling that moviegoers who have probably seen the film several times on video and on the yearly TV broadcasts will shell out money to watch it on the big screen.
Warners said O2 needs to make $25 million at the box office to qualify the rerelease as a success, but refused to say how much it spent to restore the film.

Wildcats pummel Jayhawks put Wegner out for season, possibly career
Offense struggles gains all-time low 44 yards in loss
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Wegner: Career could be over after second concussion.
The Kansas Jayhawk football team would probably like to.
Blame it on the rain.
On a slippery, slimy, wet and miserable afternoon Saturday, the fourthranked Kansas State Wildcats walked all over the Jawhaves, 54-6.
"We met a fine football team today, there's no question about it," coach Terry Allen said. "They had outstanding play and lots of talent. It was a long,
cold, wet after room.
Yes it was.
It was almost déla vu, as events were
But for a short time,
a tiny window of
opportunity appeared
to be opening.
Enneking also exited the game in the first quarter with a sprained ankle.
It was almost dea unfolding exactly as they had only a week before when Kansas pulled out an upset victory against Colorado.
During the second series of the game, Kansas defensive back Jamie Harris forced K-State quarterback Michael Bishop to fumble the ball on Kansas' one yard line. It prevented a Wildcat touchdown and it looked as if the Jay
And with Wegner out with a concussion for the second week in a row, there are doubts he will ever play again.
But this week, it wasn't meant to be.
"He's not in very good shape." Allen
said. "He cut his finger up and has sustained his second concussion, and I'll be surprised if he plays again this year.

hawks might have found the answer of how to stop K-State.
Wegner is a bit more optimistic.
"I have no concerns of my career," he said. "I get to play again next year. It is scary. I will be out for two weeks and then, hopefully, back for Iowa State. It is up to the doctors."
Wegner's concussion was not his most grisly injury. He cut the middle finger of his left hand.
But Alien and the team medical staff said Wegner was done for the season.

K-State tandem too powerful for 'Hawks
Bv Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas State's two marquee players were more than enough for the Kansas Jayhawks to handle in the Wildcats' 54-6 romp Saturday.
All American place kicker Martin Gramatica and quarterback Michael Bishop each had a stellar game.

Gramatica, winner of last year's Lou Groza award for the nation's top kicker, kicked four field goals, a Kansas

State record, and scored 18 points, another
record.
Bishop ran 13 times for 95 yards and two touchdowns. He also completed 16 of 26 passes for 225 yards and one touchdown.
Gramatica didn't blame the weather or the slippery surface for his two misses from 60 and 40 yards. He missed another from 41 yards, but a Kansas offside penalty gave him another chance from 36 yards, which he made.
The constant rain didn't make either of their jobs easy. Bishop fumbled twice at the Kansas 1-yard line on what appeared to be sure touchdowns. Gramatica missed two field goal attempts.
"You can't blame the weather," he said. "The one 40-yarder I missed, I just looked up too quick. It was a little windy, but not that bad. I'm just glad I could help the team win."
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said he thought there was little room for excuses.
"Martin was hitting at 60 yards before the game," he said. "If the snap and hold is good in any weather, he should make them."
"Obviously he is a good football player," Allen said. "He just made plays all day. I guess when the Purple Tide gets going, it pretty much is dominant."
Kansas coach Terry Allen talked about
Bishop on the game.
Bishop did have some problems during the game. With 10:52 remaining in the first quarter, Bishop carried the ball on fourth-and-one from the Kansas 39yard line.

Kansas 32 yard line. He ran 31 yards, but cornerback Jamie Harris jarred the ball loose, and it bounced out of the end zone, giving the Javhawks a touchback.
"Michael needed to have two hands on the ball on that play," Snyder said. "Rain isn't a factor, only if the ball gets wet."
The Wildcats had the ball at the Kansas one-yard line. A mix-up on the snap resulted in another loose ball, and Bishop recovered it at the Kansas 28.
Bishop and Gramatica moved up school and conference statistic lists during the game. Bishop's l-yard touchdown pass to tight end Justin Swift put him in a second place tie with Lynn Dickey in career touchdown passes at K-State with 29. Chad May is the leader with 34.
Gramatica now has 310 career points, which is sixth on the all-time Big Eight conference scoring chart. Gramatica played in the conference for two years and is eligible for all records.
Kansas runner finishes fifth at Big 12 meet
By Matthew Friedrichs Kansan sports editor
Junior transfer Brian Jensen finished fifth at the Big 12 Cross Country Championships Saturday in Lincoln, Neb.
His finish was the best by a Kansas runner in more than 14 years and it helped the men's team finish sixth out of 12 teams.
Jensen said he tried to keep pace with eventual winner Adam Goucher of Colorado early in the race.
"I started out pretty fast and went with Goucher," Jensen said. "Nobody else tried, so I thought I would."
Unable to maintain Goucher's pace.
Jensen ran for two to three miles by himself before the other runners caught up with him.
"Then I tried to hang on," Jensen said.

Jensen's finish gives Kansas hope that at
least one Jayhawk runner will qualify for the NCAA Championships, which will be held at Rim Rock Farm, Kansas' home course north of Lawrence.
The Kansas women finished 12th out of 12 teams.
Colorado won the men's competition and Kansas State won the women's competition.
"He (Jensen) has paced our efforts all season," said Coach Gary Schwartz. "We were fortunate that Kevin (McGinn) and some of the other guys improved their times so Brian's efforts wouldn't be wasted. On the women's side, we've had a

The top two teams from the regional will qualify. The best third-place teams at various regionals also have a chance to qualify as a team. The top three runners not affiliated with a team qualify too.
Jensen is optimistic about his chances to qualify for the championships.
"It's going to be a good race," Jensen said.
Goucher will not be in Kansas' regional, but most of the runners Jensen competed with Saturday will be there.
"I'm hoping to finish top five again," he said.
Saturday, Kevin McGinn finished 23rd, and Andy Tate finished 41st.
Diane Heffernan was the top Jayhawk woman, finishing 46th. Sara Brinkley, who has led the team much of the season, finished 46th.
Kansas rowers lose battle to K-State, choppy conditions
The battle on the football field was not the only battle Kansas lost to in-state rival Kansas State Saturday.

"It was really cold and very wet," Lonard said. "You were drenched before you started."
The race course was marked by buoys from the Clinton Lake dam to the marina and
a strong tail wind pushed the racers and the water.
"The water, at times, was higher that the level of your oar," Lonard said.

The choppy water made it difficult for the teams to catch the water cleanly, and
Nikia Rosenberger, Atchison senior and coxswain for the First Varsity Eight team that rowed the fastest time of the day, said her boat was focused throughout the race.
"It was very competitive coming off the line," she said.
And it was competitive throughout the race Kansas won by a boat length, which was the closest race of the day.
Despite winning the race, she said it was upsetting for the team to lose the regatta.
"We thought our team had more depth," Rosenberger said. "It's really disappointing to do your best and come up short."

Many of the novices were unused to racing against other teams. The fall competitions have been head races in which each team completes a course and the team with the best time wins.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 2).
Work takes precedence this year. The pace is fast, and the experience priceless. Make time for love in November and a commitment, too. Changes affect your finances in December, so stay flexible. Don't overspend on the holidays, and look for more sources of income.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Put in the extra effort to hold your temper. You're richest to tell the truth, but don't tell it in anger. Let the dust clear before you plan your next move. Decisions made this week could influence your pocketbook. Protect your own future by keeping more of what you earn.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Don't let someone else's emergency cause a problem for you. Calm others down, and the emergency will solve itself. Be careful with the choices you make tomorrow and Wednesday. You may have to live with them for a long time.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Don't get stirred up about a workrelated conflict. If you let your partner know how you feel that ought to be enough. Keep the others out of it for now, especially if you're angry. Reach a compromise tomorrow that supports your most cherished beliefs. Don't sacrifice one to gain another.
Cancer (June 22-Jul 22): Today is a 6.
Anticipate agitation from higher up and maybe ever an outburst of bad temper. Keep your head down, especially if controversial subjects are being discussed. You've already got your mind pretty well made up, but listen to the facts.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Let a friend break through your crusty exterior and give you a little information. You wouldn't have thought of this articularly because you had your mind made up. There's something you need to consider, however, that involves a little confrontation. Let the information penetrate your defenses.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
louise worried about money, but don't panic. Use a method you already know to shut off a leak and protect your resources. Your practical decision tomorrow will bring future rewards, and Wednesday, you can find a way to buy your loved one something special.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
A surprising confrontation could lead to a new friendship today. A rule you don't want to obey could turn out to be good for you and help you achieve your lifelong ambitions. So don't resist one who's trying to give you coaching, even if you don't like what you're hearing.
Saaitttarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Put up with an irritating co-worker today. He or she may have a couple of good points. Just because this person is insensitive in some areas doesn't mean you should ignore all of his or her advice. If you're too rigid, you could cause results opposite from the ones you intended.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
You're rather oldoff to work today. Use your restlessness to push yourself to try something you've been thinking about. It's going much more slowly than you'd hoped and possibly veering in a direction you don't like. Keep telling the truth, and you'll help things stay on track.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You're still cleaning up after this weekend. While you're at it, make some changes you've been thinking about.
Once things are thoroughly disrupted, it's a good excuse to put them the way you always wanted them. This is a good time for it.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a A
you're even more intelligent than usual today, and you'll need the extra brainpower and quick wit to outmaneuver a tough competitor. Get in your two cents' worth early, and you'll shift the way things are decided tomorrow. If you don't speak up at all, you could lose an important benefit.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
There's something you can do to improve your lot in life, but you won't get there by accident. It'll take planning. You're trying things you haven't done before, so you might be a little nervous. Following a strong leader helps. Don't go on fantasy in this situation. Make sure you're following someone you can trust.

K-State match close until third game
'Hawks to prepare for last eight matches try for playoff spot
By Laura Bokenkrager
Kansas sportswriter
So close and then so far away.
In two tight games and one blowout, the Kansas volleyball team fell three games to none (15-13, 15-12 and 15-2) last weekend against Kansas State.
As the Jayhawks prepare for their last eight matches, Coach Ray Bechard said that the team had to find a way to win the close games and avoid taking concentration breaks.
"Good teams play consistent for a long time and that's what we're still trying to do," Bechard said. "We have eight matches left that we think we can compete in. You can call us crazy, but suddenly you're on the bubble of play-off lines if you can get to that point."
Bechard said that the despite the team's effort in games one and two, he was disappointed with the outcome.
"We exchanged with them extremely well in the first two games," Bechard said. "But Kansas State felt like they could come back. We needed to win one of the first two."
After falling behind 2-7 in the first
game, the Jayhawks pulled even at eight and then took the lead for the first time at 10-8. But the Wildcats wouldn'tquit.
they forced three sideouts and pulled within one point.
The game quickly was tied at 10 and again at 12. Kansas State reached 14, but the Jayhawks weren't ready to give up. There was no tentativeness in the Jayhawks' effort to battle back, as
But the Wildcats needed just one point to win, and despite the Jayhawks' determined defense, the Wildcats prevailed. 15-13.
Kansas jumped ahead 3-0 in the second game, but the Wildcats didn't remain far behind.
The game was tied at 12 for five rotations before the Wildcats finally earned points 13 and 14. Then the Jayhawks stalled the Wildcats for three more rotations on game point. Middle blocker Amanda Reves and outside hitter Moira Donovan missed serves at the end, and the Jayhawks didn't score again, losing 15-12.
After two heart-breaking losses, the Jayhawks looked like a different team in game three. They fell behind 12-1 and never gained momentum offensively in the 15-2 defeat.
Reves said she didn't know how to explain the breakdown.
"It was very disappointing," Reves said. "We just self-destructed more than anything. It wasn't anything they were doing. I just don't think we responded well to each other as far as being supportive."
Bechard said that Kansas State used a well-rounded attack to dispose of the Jayhawks.
"They were a little more balanced than we were," Bechard said. "They had just a few more weapons. I think we relied too heavily on Reves tonight."
Reves, who led the Jayhawks with 13 kills, said that the Jayhawks would have to push one another and support one another in practice this week to prepare for next weekend's trips to Baylor and Texas Tech.
'Hawks end season with eighth consecutive loss
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
A 1-0 loss has been the story for the Kansas soccer team this year.
The Jayhawks fell 1-0 for the seventh time this season when they lost yesterday at Wyoming. The season ended on that bitter, 30-degree day.
The loss came on the heels of 1-0 loss
Friday at Colorado.
Wyoming's leading scorer, midfielder Katrina Morton, scored the golden goal
in the 101st minute, sending Kansas to its eighth consecutive loss, a team
record. The golden goal is another name for a goal scored in sudden-death overtime.
The Jayhawks were outshot by the Cowgirls (20-5, 15-1) In the double overtime
SOCCER
second half and overtime.
Goalkeeper Jen Fecke was credited with 11 saves.
For the fourth consecutive game, freshman Lindsey Kennedy, who finished the season tied for the team lead in goals (four) and points (nine) did not play. She did not make the trip to Texas Oct. 25-27 because of an injury, but Coach Dan Magner said Wednesday that she would make the trip to the Rockies.
Kansas wrapped up the conference season in Boulder, Colo. A goal by midfielder Melissa Cartnell in the 25th minute was all the Buffaloes needed for
their second Big 12 conference win.
Kansas was outshot by Colorado 25-13. Freshman Melanie Schroeder led Kansas with three shots.
Goalkeeper Katie Garrity made her fifth start of the season, and she had five saves.
Kansas finished the season 5-13-1, 1-8-1 in the Big 12. The season marks the Jayhawks' lowest win total and worst conference record in team history.

Nebraska gives way to Texas
Kansas State holds dominant place thanks to defense
The Associated Press
Before the Big Eight expanded into the Southwest in 1996, Nebraska dominated the likes of Iowa State, Kansas and Missouri, and overpowered perennial Top 25 teams from Colorado and Oklahoma.
But in the past three seasons, the Cornhuskers have become painfully familiar with the boastful Lone Star State slogan, "Don't mess with Texas."
The No.14 Cornhuskers have lost five games since 1993. Two have come against the Texas Longhorns, the latest a 20-16 loss Saturday that ended Nebraska's 47-game home winning streak and its 96-week stay in the Top 10.
"It's the low point of my career," Nebraska senior defensive end Chad Kelsay said.
Kelsay has seen several impressive streaks end in the past two years. The Cornhuskers won 31 straight games against conference opponents before being stuned by
Texas in the 1996 Big 12 championship game.
Nebraska rebounded from that loss to win 19 straight before another Lone Star State team, Texas A&M, upset the Cornhuskers 28-21 in College Station last month.
After surviving a close call at home against No.18 Missouri at home last weekend, Nebraska's Memorial Stadium dominance ended against the Longhorns and Heisman Trophy frontrunner Ricky Williams.
"I didn't expect to see very many
"I didn't expect holes, so I'm very happy with what I was able to do," said Williams, who had 150 yards on 37 carriers. "People have said that I don't
N
run well against good defenses, and today I showed that not "true."
Williams literally has run the Longhorns back into the Big 12 race. Since a 48-7 loss to No. 4 Kansas State in which Williams had just 43 yards, Texas (6-2, 4-1 Big 12 South) has won five straight and has moved within a game of division leader Texas A&M.
The seventh-ranked Aggies (8-1, 5-0) play at Texas, ending the regular
season.
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
"I just feel this gives us a chance to step forward and get us in the mix for some other things by the end of the year that a lot of people didn't think we had a chance to get in," Texas coach Mack Brown said.
Nebraska (7-2, 3-2 Big 12 North) has been reduced to an unfamiliar role, starring up at Kansas State (8-0, 5-0) and Missouri (6-2, 4-1) in the division standings.
Kansas State continued its dominance with a 54-6 win at Kansas (3-6, 1-6), and Missouri held off Texas Tech 28-26 to hand the Red Raiders (6-3, 3-3) their third straight loss.
Both games were played on wet fields, but the conditions didn't bother Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop, placekicker Martin Gramatica or the wildcats' defense.
Bishop accounted for two touchdowns and 320 yards of total offense, and Gramatica set school records with four field goals and 18 points. The Kansas State defense allowed three yards rushing and 44 overall.
"they won the battle everywhere," Kansas coach Terry Allen said.
In Lubbock, Texas, Missouri's Devin West became the first running back to rush for more than 100 yards against Texas Tech's "swarm" defense, going for 133 on a rainsoaked field.
Despite committing three turnovers, Texas Tech still had a chance to tie the game with 1:05 remaining but could not convert a 2-point conversion.
Texas A&M's game at Oklahoma State (3-5, 2-4) lacked such drama as the Aggies dominated on defense and got 111 yards rushing from fullback Ja'Mar Toombs, beating the Cowboys 17-6.
In a battle of last-place teams, Oklahoma (3-5, 1-4) started its fourth quarterback of the season and beat Iowa State 17-14 for its first conference win.
The Cyclones (2,6-0,5) had a fourpoint lead before Jake Sills threw a 44-yard touchdown pass to Gerald Williams with 1:12 remaining. Sills, a redshirt freshman, was the first Oklahoma quarterback to play the entire game this season.
Baylor (2-6, 1-4) was hammered 27-3 in a nonconference game at No. 13 Notre Dame, and Colorado (6-2, 3-2) was idle. Despite their inactivity, the Buffs dropped from No. 25 out the national rankings.
NBA lockout debate resumes today
NEW YORK — The NBA lockout entered its fifth month yesterday, with both sides ready to resume bargaining on the week the regular season was supposed to begin.
The Associated Press
League and union lawyers will meet today, and the full negotiating teams for the owners and players will meet Wednesday.
The season was supposed to begin tomorrow night, but the first month of the schedule has been wiped out because of the work stoppage. More cancellations are certain if an agreement isn't reached by next weekend.
TREVOR DALTON
"The owners are right, and the players are right. There is no happy medium. They should just cancel the whole season and let everybody get a real job. Then you'll see how they really feel.I bet then they'll come to an agreement real quick."
"This thing is pretty much in David Stern's hands, and I'm not unduly optimistic," said agent Steve Kaufman, a member of the union's agents advisory committee.
"To me, there's two windows to get it done," Kaufman said. "One is right now. You get the season started by Dec. 1, satisfy TNT and possibly enable a full schedule. But if it's not done in next week to 10 days, you're looking at a Christmas or New Year's scenario for the start season. And I don't think either side will make a bad deal just to reach the Dec. 1 goal."
The two sides made more progress
last week than they had in the previous four and a half months, agreeing on a loose framework.
Dennis Rodman Chicago Bulls forward
The biggest hurdle is an agreement about what percentage of revenues will be devoted to salaries by the time the new system has been in place a few years. The owners want to pay 50 percent (a movement off their previous demand for 48), and the players want to receive 60 percent (a move from 63 percent).
If the sides split the difference, it would give the players 55 percent of revenues.
But the players received 57 percent last season, and there's a feeling
among many agents that the union shouldn't drop to 55 percent because it has already given the owners numerous concessions.
The sides have agreed that the first two or three years would be played under a "luxury tax" system, the next two or three years would also include an "escrow tax" and the last year would be a combination. Under the luxury tax, any owner who signs a player to a high-end contract would pay a premium.
After initially proposing a tax of 56 percent on the amount of any annual salary below $18 million, the union lowered its threshold number to $15
million, according to people involved in the talks who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The owners, meanwhile, have been asking for a maximum salary equal to 30 percent of the salary cap (about $9.3 million next season). They revised that demand last week by setting $12 million as the maximum salary for players who have been in the league 10 years or more and $8 million for players with up to six years' experience.
The owners also moved off their demand for the elimination of the $1 million exception, which allowed every team, even if over the cap, to sign an extra player for $1 million once every two years.
They proposed an exception starting at $1.5 million and growing to $2 million in three years, but the union has stuck to its demand for an exception available every season.
"The owners are right, and the players are right," Dennis Rodman said to the Chicago Tribune. "There is no happy medium. They should just cancel the whole season and let everybody get a real job. Then you'll see how they really feel. I bet then they'll come to an agreement real quick."
'Huskers football neglects to uphold former glory days
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Back in August, first-year Nebraska coach Frank Solich confidently predicted the Cornhuskers would continue their legacy of success.
After Heisman Trophy contender Ricky Williams and Texas ended Nebraska's 47-game winning streak at Memorial Stadium with a 20-16 victory Saturday, it's indeed a new era
M. LEE
unlock That t's because the Nebraska's days of domination are history.
Osborne: Said football program was 'left in good hands.
good team, Ricky Williams, TV and a lot of attention," said Nebraska linebacker Jay Foreman. "And we seemed scared of the whole thing."
that we use us back in the national championship picture are, against a
"There are no words to describe it. Guys are disappointed and hurt," kicker Kris Brown said.
Nebraska? Scared?
There's no dispute that something has been missing during the past month for the 'Huskers, who saw their streak of 96 weeks ranked in the AP Top 10 terminated.
Nebraska fell from seventh to No.14 in this week's poll, while the Longhorns climbed into the Top 25 at No.20. The 'Huskers hadn't lost at home against an unranked opponent since Missouri beat No.2 Nebraska 35-31 in November 1978.
"We had a lot of good opportunities, but we didn't take advantage," said center Josh Heskew. "We are going to do some soul searching and figure out what's going on."
Combined with a 28-21 loss at Texas A&M Oct. 10, it's also the first time since 1990 that Nebraska has had two regular season conference losses. The
Aggies ended Nebraska's 19 game winning streak and gave the 'Huskers their first defeat in 40 conference games.
Ironically, the last unranked opponent to beat Nebraska was Texas, which beat the No. 3 'Huskers 37-27 in the 1996 Big 12 championship game.
The tenor of Solich's first season has changed dramatically since then-No. 2 Nebraska beat Washington 55-7 Sept. 26.
The next week, Nebraska needed a goal line stand on the last play to beat Oklahoma State 24-17. Next came the loss in College Station, followed by a 41-0 defeat of Kansas that seemed to correct the "Huskers."
But on Oct. 24, Nebraska again survived on the final play, beating Missouri 20-13. Things might have been different if a wide-open Missouri receiver had not dropped a pass in the end zone with four seconds left.
These aren't the same Cornhuskers who, under Tom Osborne, won national titles in 1994 and 1995 and shared last season's championship with Michigan. Those 'Huskers posted an all-time NCAA-best 60-3 record from 1993-97.
These 'Huskers, under Solich,
are reeling.
"I'm just trying to think of what happened," said senior defensive end Mike Rucker. "It's just real hard, having your group being the ones who let it go like this."
Osborne, who went 255-49-3 in 25 seasons, retired after the Orange Bowl in January. The program was proclaimed in good hands — Solich was a 19-year assistant and promised no significant changes.
After the Texas loss, Solich tried to keep a straight face. Yet from the brevity of many of his statements and the blank expression he wore, it was clear he was as stunned as his players.
"I'm not confused, and I'm not concerned, other than what you always feel when you lose a ball game," Solich insisted.
Texas' Williams made strides in his Heisman bid, gaining 150 yards on 37 carries. Longhorn redshirt freshman quarterback Major Applewhite, who threw for 269 yards and two touchdowns, also had a big day.

"I think my finger got smashed on the top of the helmet," Wegnr said. "It ripped off the top of my finger and the bone was sticking out."
His absence means backup Jay Alexander will be the new starter, backed up by freshman Jonas Weatherbie.
For the second week in a row, Alexander replaced for Wegner and led the Jayhawks to their first and only touchdown of the night.
But he did not do it in the most traditional way.
During the scoring series, Alexander completed three passes for 24 yards and threw two interceptions. But K-State was called for pass interference on each of the interceptions and Kansas regained possession.
Alexander connected with wide receiver Michael Chandler on an

eight-yard pass for Chandler's first collegiate touchdown and Alexander's first touchdown pass.
Kansas accumulated only 44 yards offensively, the worst in the program's history.
The 48-point margin of victory was the worst defeat suffered to the Wildcats.
Now that a bowl bid is impossible for the Jayhawks, and only two games remain on their schedule, it's once again a story of where to go from here.
"It's hard to keep your head up," running back David Winbush said, who rushed for 19 yards after a career-high 268 yards against Colorado. "Mainly, I think we've got to keep the team concept, we can't go after our own shell or be individuals. We've got to just finish out the season like a team should."

Building a great UNIVERSITY
Second of 10
PETER HOWE
"My vision of KU is that of a great university. To be a great university ... KU must fulfill its statewide missions in all its service responsibilities, from the Geological Survey to Continuing Education. We have a special statewide responsibility for the health and well-being of the people of Kansas. We have the only medical school in the State, and the only academic health center in the state. We serve not only Wichita and Kansas City, where our medical school is located, but the entire state through our outreach in nursing, allied health and rural medicine. This is KU's special mission, and we must help Kansas recreate its health-care delivery system. Especially, we must do everything in our power to insure that the 375,000 patient visits per year to our medical center and to our rural clinics meet a standard for patient care which cannot be challenged. We must be patient-friendly and patient oriented in

University tries to focus on statewide community
Chancellor Robert Hemenway
1995 Faculty Convocation address
By Sue Franko
Kansan staff writer
In Chancellor Robert Hemenway's 1995 Faculty Convocation speech, he charged the University of Kansas with a tall order — serving people in every Kansas community.
So far, because of the University's individual efforts at its many campuses, the University's service to communities has been disjointed. Until last April, a formal definition of service as a unifying principle did not exist.
oping a philosophy of service for the University and a plan to implement it.
In 1997, in response to the lack of coordination of service efforts between campuses, Hemenway formed an "Initiative 2001 Task Force II; Serve Kansans." The task "force was charged with devel-
Don Steeple, distinguished professor of geophysics, was asked to co-chair the task force, with Joseph Meek, dean of the University of Kansas School of Medicine in Wichita. The task force defined service, in part, as active outreach that meets the needs of diverse constituencies within the state with emphasis on under-served communities and disadvantaged populations.
Steeples said the University's performance was good, but the University needed to do a better job publicizing and informing people about what it does.
One option is a plan to create a University of Kansas Center for Public Service. Hemenway said establishing the center was one of the
"The amount of service that goes on is absolutely staggering, but people on campus don't know it, and people out in Garden City don't know it," Steeples said. "It's an educational and public relations issue."
University's grade:
Don Steeples, distinguished professor of geophysics and co-chairman of the "Initiative 2001 Task Force II: Serve Kansans," gave the University a B for performance but a C-for publicizing and informing people about what it does.

Ken Davis, chairman of the KU Health Outreach Program, gave the University an A- for service because of its scattered individual efforts.
Executive Vice Chancellor Don Hagen gave the KU Hospital, which is part of the Med Center, an A+ for service, and applauded the newly appointed Hospital Authority Board that governs Hospital operations.
"We also need to take advantage of existing services and ask the University Relations department to work even harder to get the word out on what we do," he said.
task force's recommendations and a spinoff committee had been formed to look into creating a center.
Ken Davis is chairman of the KU Health Outreach Program, which was created to coordinate all the health care outreach efforts in the state.
Educational outreach includes the Primary Care Program in cities such as Hays, Garden City and Pittsburg, in which physicians take medical students out into in those communities to teach them about rural medicine.
A consortium meets quarterly to organize efforts and let people in the community know about programs. Those programs include things such as going to the State Fair in September in Hutchinson to conduct mammograms, cholesterol checks and meet with people about the services the University of Kansas Medical Center offers.
Davis said these many outreach programs are part of Hemenway's large initiative to serve Kansas. Davis said there is not as much of a dialogue with communities as the University would like. That is why the Outreach Program consortium meets quarterly to identify opportunities within communities and determine how healthcare experts can help.

Davis said he would rate the University's service high,but said it could do a better job of coordinating its outreach efforts.
Programs try to get votes
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Instead of complaining about voter apathy in the United States, some people are tackling the problem head-on right here in Kansas.
Two programs that aim to increase voter participation in today's and future elections are the Kids Voting Kansas and Honor a Vet with Your Vote programs.
Kids Voting Kansas has a simple mission, said Debra Hiebert, executive vice president of the program. The program is dedicated to increasing lifelong voter participation through education.
The program, in cooperation with teachers, educates children of all ages on how our democracy works and how they can be involved in the system.
"People expect things to change overnight." Hiebert said. "Things are changing all the time, but it all doesn't happen overnight."
She emphasized that students are taught how small changes become significant in the long run.
Diana Carlin, associate professor of communications studies and chairman of the Kids Voting Kansas board, said the culmination of the education effort is kids going to vote with their parents.
She said special voting booths are set up for children at regular polling places. Younger children are given ballots for the major races, while high school students get a ballot similar to an official one with all races and issues listed.
About 200,000 students in 16 Kansas counties will be a part of this year's effort. Lawrence schools are participating, and University of Kansas students are volunteering to help out at the polls.
Chris Hess, Wichita junior and co-director of the Center for Community Outreach, said more than 100 University students would

Student voting turnout low
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
In 1971 the 26th amendment was adopted and granted 18-year-olds the right to vote, but members of the Student Legislative Awareness Board are concerned with the dwindling number of students who take advantage of their right.
It is election day and SLAB representatives are hoping to see the KU student body make a strong impact at the polls.
E L E C T I O N 98
The number of students who get out and vote has an effect on the way politicians treat the University, said Heather Yates, lobbying coordinator.
"Students need to know they have a voice, regardless of what legislators in Washington
and Topeka say," Yates said. "Apathy in students is conveyed from the people we vote for. If that's the message they send us, we need to send them a larger message so they'll start caring about us."
Project Vote Smart, a nonpartisan group that provides election information nationally since 1992, said that in a poll conducted in 1994, only 18 percent of 18 to 20-year-olds and 22 percent of 21 to 24-year-olds said they voted.
Bryan Caskey, administrative
assistant in the elections division of the secretary of state, said college students who were registered in Douglas County could not be narrowed down, but 34 percent of the voters registered in Douglas County were under the age of 30 as of May.
Tom Moore, campus director of student legislative awareness board said when students did not vote, they got lost in the shuffle.
"No one's going to pay attention to a group where only 29 percent of the constituency votes," he said. "This year SLAB got 400 students registered to vote, up from 300 when we had a registration drive during the spring semester. We need students to get out and vote."
SLAB is not the only group try ing to get young people to vote.
KLZR, 105.9 the Lazer, spent all day yesterday offering listeners free CD's if they promised to get out and vote.
Melia Clark, disc jockey at the Lazer said it was to raise awareness among their listeners.
'It's part of 'Rock the Vote', Capital and Virgin records have donated CD's for us to give away to try and get our listeners to be aware of the election,' she said.
Diana Carlin, associate professor of communications studies, has done research on college aged voters.
"Last year's freshman class was reported by the SAT as the least interested in politics that they've ever recorded," she said. "They have a negative attitude, they feel the elections don't apply to them."

Thanksgiving move-out date falsely printed
Kansan staff writer
Bv Carolyn Mollett
Students should tell their parents not to be concerned about moving out of residence and scholarship halls before classes are out for Thanksgiving break.
The wall calendar printed and distributed by University Relations misprinted the time of day on Tuesday. Nov. 24, that students must be out of the halls for Thanksgiving break. The calendar says students must leave by 8 a.m.
"That 8 a.m. time is incorrect," said Lynn Bretz, associate director of University Relations.
en Stoner, director of KU Student
Ken Stone, duHousing, said he had received calls from concerned parents who wondered how they would move their students out of the residence and scholarship halls while the students were supposed to be close.
MOVING OUT
Scholarship and residence halls will not close at 8 a.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 24. They will close at 11:30 p.m.
"We've had a lot of calls, but we've put it out with KU information and as many places as we could." Stoner said.
Classes will still be in session that day, and the residence and scholarship halls will not close until 11:30 p.m. on Nov. 24, said Stoner.
"If we had to be out at 8 in the morning, I don't think I'd be up. So it would be tough," said Michael Shafer, Des Moines, Iowa, freshman, and McColum Hall resident.
Bretz said the calendar was distributed by U.S. Mail to 14,750 parents. An additional 5,000 copies were distributed to KU faculty through voluntary pickup and campus mail, she said.
University Relations printed corrections in the Oread and on the University web site.

CAMPUS Anti-homosexual word found on GLASA poster
A KU employee and member of Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates Sunday discovered an anti-homosexual message scrawled on a poster for the group.
Christine Robinson, a graduate teaching assistant, reported the incident to the KU Public Safety Office. The office is still investigating the incident.
Robinson said that on the first floor of Fraser Hall she saw that the poster, advertising GLASA' s Rainbow Bash next week, was covered by a poster advertising for the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
"I went over to the board and took the Bottleneck poster from my poster and saw that my poster had the word 'FAGS' written on it in blue ink right next to the rainbow on my poster," Robinson said in an e-mail message.
According to a police report, the sign was damaged between 5 p.m. Saturday and 2:45 p.m. Sunday. The report indicated that the crime was motivated by anti-homosexual bias.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said that although anti-homosexual crime was not predominant on campus, the incident should not be written off because the homosexual community had been targeted for crimes in the past.
KU Public Safety Office posts public crime log
Malien said police would follow up on the case but that they did not have a lot to go on.
The police division of the KU Public Safety Office printed its first daily crime log for the public yesterday.
The logs will be printed daily in accordance with new federal law. The department previously had posted crime information on its Web page.
"We've always done something like this," said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the Public Safety Office. "We put a log similar to this on our Web site. We just had to put it in a daily format."
The new law requires police to include in the log all crimes reported to them within two business days of the day the crime is reported.
The log also will give crime information in a language everyone can understand, Mailen said.
"We put it in a format that excludes cop vocabulary," Mailen said. "It needs to be in plain, complete-sentence context."
The log is required by recent amendments to the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Campus Crime Statistics Act, a subsection of the Higher Education Act. The amendments
took effect Oct. 7.
The law requires campus police departments to issue a log including: (i) the nature, date, time and general location of each crime; and (ii) the disposition of the complaint, if known.

Mailen said Major Chris Keary and others were working to put the log into an HTML format on a computer available to the public in their office.
Jayhawker announces six Hilltopper winners
The Jayhawker yearbook announced yesterday the six Hilttopper award winners for 1999.
Hiltopper awards are given annually to graduating seniors who excel in scholarship, community service and campus involvement at the University of Kansas.
About 15 students and faculty make up the committee that selects the award winners, said Kari Haverkamp, Topeka, senior and Jayhawk Business Manager. She said they looked for students who had a wide variety of activities they excelled in.
The six winners this year are: Maria atabjoglu, Charleston, WV; Ronald Chen, Topeka; Kendall Day, St. Fracis; Karen Isley, Sylvania, Ohio; Erika Nutt, Wichita; Ken Yoder, Hutchinson.
She said she was a varsity tennis player until this year and that now she was a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences student senator.
"I've always been concerned about really bridging the gap between the athletic world and the University world," Ahatouliou said.
Yoder, student body president, said many great KU alumni had received the Hiltopter award, and he was flattered to be among those recognized.
"To be in the same crowd as some of them is an honor to me," Yoder said.

Dialogue will discuss living-group stereotypes
University of Kansas students will discuss the issue of living-group stereotypes in this month's Diversity Dialogue.
The program, it's Not Where You Park You're Car: Stereotypes of University Living Groups, will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. tonight at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union. The event is sponsored by the KU Coalition Against Racism and Discrimination, the Multicultural Resource Center and the All-Scholarship Hall Council.
Tasha Bradley, MRC Intern, said representatives from the Greek community, residence halls, scholarship halls and possibly an off-campus student, would be on the panel.
The students will discuss stereotypes such as the rich snooby sorority girl or the brainy scholarship hall student, said Bradley. Orlando, Fla., graduate student.
"The main issue is: When people have stereotypes, how do they relate to other people?" she said.
Diversity Dialogues is a monthly program. Bradley said this year's theme was stereotypes. The next program, which will explore religious stereotypes, will be held Dec. 1.

NATION Heavy Kansas rain fall floods many from homes
AUGUSTA — Hundreds were out of their homes yesterday as rivers, swollen by up to a foot of rain, poured out of their banks in Kansas and Oklahoma.
A preliminary damage estimate in August alone was about $2 million, said Jim Schmidt, emergency management coordinator.
Nearly a foot of rain had fallen since Friday night in Kansas, where an estimated 900 people had been evacuated, including at least 350 people from nursing homes in Wichita. Water blocked all roads into the town of Sedgwick on Sunday.
Kansas Gov, Bill Graves declared a state of emergency for Cowley, Chase, Butter and Sedgwick counties.
Downtown Augusta was under 5 to 7 feet of water, said assistant city manager David Alfaro.

University fails to inform public

"We need to tear down some of the silos of individual approaches and be more collaborative across campuses and partner with communities," he said. "The University perspective needs to be more of a relational enterprise with communities, rather than something that the University does to communities — it is a mindset change."
Executive Vice Chancellor Don Hagen gave the KU Hospital, which is part of the Med Center, a top rating for service. He said one of the factors contributing to the high rating was the recently appointed Hospital Authority Board that soerves KU Hospital operations.
"The Hospital Authority Board is a month old and already there's a lot of improvements to the facility," he said. "By being able to manage our resources and change the way we do business, the Hospital is able to move faster than normal state agencies."
Hagen cited the near completion of constructing a new burn unit, which began a year ago, and renovation of and movement of the pediatric ward closer to the inner core of the KU Hospital as two improvements to the facility.
In addition to health care, part of Hemenway's charge included the Geological Survey/s' mission to help maintain a self-sustaining natural environment.
Steeples said the Geological Survey provided public outreach in areas related to natural resources such as water, oil, gas and salt. It also looks at public safety issues such as water quality and earthquake hazards.
"For example, there are declining water tables in Western Kansas and a large amount of its economy depends on irrigation water." Steeples said. "So for many years, research programs have monitored the amount of water left and more effective ways to use the water."

GTAC endorses local Democrats
By Julie M. Sachs
Kanson staff writer
A symbiotic relationship between the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition and Douglas County Democrats emerged during recent election preparations.
The teamwork between the two groups developed because of the overwhelming support that the Democratic Party has given to unions, said Michael Young, vice chairman of the 3rd Congressional District of KU Young Democrats and a member of Douglas County Democrats.
Last spring, the Democratic Party helped the coalition maintain its public employee status.
State Rep. Tom Sawyer, D-Wichita,
helped to filibuster a bill that threatened
the status of graduate teaching assistants
as public employees. Young said.
Young said unions were important because they ensured that workers were guaranteed fair wages.
By filibustering the bill, Sawyer, also the Democratic candidate for governor in today's election, prevented it from going into the debating process. Young said.
Wes Beal, GTAC organizer, said the coalition decided to support the party because of its efforts.
Motivation toward helping out the party is not just personal.
"If it was just a personal thing, we would've just gone to the polls and voted," Beals said.
Mark Horowitz, president of GTAC,
said the support of the Democratic Party
stemmed from a sense of gratitude.
Beal said GTAC was staffing its members anywhere that the Douglas County Democrats needed assistance.
Although Democratic support from GTAC has been high, Horowitz said the group also was thankful for the Republicans who showed support.
"GTAC has been incredibly, incredibly helpful thus far." Young said.
Horowitz said GTAC tended to support people who supported its cause.
Throughout the past couple of weeks, GTAC members handed out literature, helped secure contacts in the labor community and urged people by phone to vote Democrat.
Ward Cook, chairman of College Republicans, said he understood why CTAC chose to support the Democrats but said some people failed to acknowledge Republican support for graduate students.
"I think a lot of times people forget what Republicans have done." Cook said.
Programs hope to raise turnout

serve as Kids Voting Kansas poll workers.
"This is a way to give back to the community by getting kids involved in the democratic process," Hess said. "I hope we can reverse the trend of low voter turnout in American politics."
Carlin said she hoped the program would get students talking about political issues and voting with their parents. In turn, she said voter turnout would be increased now by parents and by informed students in the future when they reach voting age.
Secretary of State Ron Thornburgh implemented the the Honor a Vet with Your Vote this year after hearing about a similar program recently started in Arkansas.
In this program, voters will be given a sticker at their polling places which allows them to fill in the name of a vet.
Thornburg said he believed this would personalize the voting process and encourage potential voters to make voting a personal tribute.
eran they want to honor.
Chuck Knapp, special deputy assistant secretary of state, said all 105 Kansas counties would participate in the program's inaugural year.
He said Thornburgh had chosen to honor three of his uncles with his vote today. Wayne, Paul, and Dewey Davis served in the Army during World War II in the European theater.
Vern Pall, assistant director of communications for the Veterans of Foreign Wars, said honoring a veteran was a great idea.
"It is an honorable and thoughtful way to honor those who have fought for our democracy," Pall said.
Thornburgh said he wanted his veteran's program and other factors to prove him wrong in his prediction for low voter turnout of just 735,000.
Editor, writer unwinds story of Rolling Stone's strange trip
By Pailavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
PULLA CROCE
A writer and contributing editor to Rolling Stone said the enduring legacy of the magazine was in making music a serious business.
Surrounded by *Rolling Stone* covers and memorabilia, Anthony DeCurtis said last night that *Rolling Stone* was the first magazine to bring legitimacy to roll 'n' roll writing and to give rock stars a place on the cover.
He spoke to a 45-member audience as part of the AT&T Rolling Stone Covers Tour, which is on display in the Kansas Union Ballroom.

Since its inception in 1967, the magazine has been based on a combination of politics and music. DeCurtis said.
"The aspect has continued, and the cover has become the governing image," he said. "But the cover is not merely an illustration; the cover is its own commentary."
The coverage the magazine gave rock stars both on the covers and within its pages made bands, actors and actresses cover material for magazines such as Time and Newsweek, he said.
DeCurtis, who has written 16 cover stories and other articles for the magazine, found his work at Rolling Stone enriching.
"It is meaningful to me that my stuff is in the library, and people go and check them out," he said.
He also talked about memorable interviews with rock stars. Although a small part of them did appear in print, others did not make it to the pages at all.
"The mythology is fun and rich; the life is richer still," he said after reading from a 1992 article that detailed his experiences as a writer for the magazine. The article was a part of Rolling Stone's 25th anniversary issue.
Anita Claus, Germany exchange student, said it was interesting to hear about the personal aspects of a rock 'n' roll writer and to hear about aspects of stories that did not make it into print.
DeCurtis said that although it was sometimes a struggle to combine business aspects with the creative ones, Rolling Stone remained an independent voice.
there is a tendency to view Rolling Stone in isolation against magazines of the same ilk, such as the New Yorker, he said.
"A reason, whatever their quality, is that they didn't represent so much," he said.
New bill changes Haskell hiring system
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
President Clinton signed the Native American Education Improvement Act into law Saturday, giving Haskell Indian Nations University more flexibility in hiring practices.
Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., held a press conference at Haskell yesterday morning to celebrate the bill's passage and discuss the changes the legislation will bring. Snowbarger, who is running for re-election this year, sponsored the bill.
ico to create demonstration projects which will eventually lead to their own personnel systems. The universities previously operated through federal offices to hire faculty and staff.
The legislation will allow Haskell and Southwestern Indian Polytechnic Institute in New Mex
"What Haskell's trying to do is eliminate some red tape," Snow-bearled said. "This will do that."
The legislation also will provide faculty and staff with more retirement plan options.
Haskell president Bob Martin said Haskell was developing a plan for a new personnel system that likely would be complete in six months to a year.
The plan will be presented to Congress for approval in five years.
"The first thing we're going to
do is see how quickly we can move to establish a personnel office on campus," Martin said.
Martin said he wanted a faculty system with rankings. The present system does not allow faculty to move up in stature.
Instead of being classified as as associate professors or professors, Haskell faculty members are classified as instructors, which makes recruiting tenured faculty hard, Snowbarger said.
He said the new legislation would help to recruit and retain qualified faculty.
Current faculty have not been as pleased with the bill.
Employees. President Mike Tosee was unable to be reached yesterday, but in an Oct. 16 University Daily Kansan article, he expressed opposition to the bill.
Their union is the Local 45 National Federation of Federal
Tosee said Local 45's main complaint was that union members were not well informed of the bill's components and how they would affect faculty.
Snowbarger said he thought the national union influenced Local 45's position.
The national union will lose power as a result of the bill's passage, but the local union should retain their influence, Snowbargen said.
Martin said he expected some dissent.

Increased financing will provide more opportunities for Dole center
A warm "thank you" is in order for the Kansas Legislature, the United States Congress and private donors who are helping the Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy become a reality at the University of Kansas.
Last week, Congress voted to allocate $6 million to the Institute as a provision of President Clinton's $520 billion spending bill. This brings the Institute's available funds to $12 million; the remainder of the money came from a $3 million allocation from the Legislature and matching funds provided by private donors.
Rather than just financing the Institute building, which is to be on West Campus, the money will help
The institute has $12 million in funds that it will use for various projects.
bring lectures and seminars to KU. Furthermore, it will help finance internships in Topeka and Washington, D.C. It also will finance the organization of documents that if laid end-to-end would be more than 4,000 feet and other materials Dole donated to the University.
The increased funding will surely benefit what is already a promising project. Instead of being a memorial to one of our state's and University's most famous sons, the Institute has the opportunity to benefit the entire
community by fostering academic development and interest in participating in government.
Visitors will have the opportunity to examine Dole's huge collection of papers, photos and campaign paraphernalia. They will have the rare chance to peer into the life of one of this century's most influential Americans. Those thinking about a political career can draw inspiration from Dole's accomplishments and insight from his works.
With a larger budget, the Dole Institute can do some wonderful things for the University community. Students should be thankful that their representatives in government are generously helping these possibilities come into fruition.

Community praised for successful event
Animal lovers in the Lawrence community should be proud of what they have done for the Lawrence Humane Society.
Last month, the Pawsible Dream fundraiser outidid itself. About 300 people brought in $14,000 from an auction of various items. Only 100 attended last year, but they raised $10,039. The year before only $5,400 was raised.
The Liberty Hall event brought together various aspects of the community. Many people, from local veterinarians to Team Target to Gould Evans Associates, put the event together.
Items auctioned were largely donated from downtown Lawrence businesses, but also from Topeka,

Unfortunately, no University groups were involved in the event. Midge Grinstead, executive director, attributes the lack of involve-
"We'd have never competed with Roy," she said. She, however, said that students from Baker, Haskell and KU were consistently involved with the Humane Society.
Although no organized University involvement was represented at the auction, the Lawrence community and Humane Society did an excellent job of raising money for the animals. Next year, university groups should make involvement in the successful auction a goal.

Perspective
GRA/GTA health plan excludes many students
The new GTA/GRA health-insurance plan was lauded as a victory for graduate students at the University of Kansas. There is no doubt the plan provides an essential serv
ice for students who work for the University and otherwise would not be able to afford health insurance. However, the plan has not pleased everyone, and it is exclusionary for a group of students.
A. B. C. D. E. F. G. H. I. J. K. L. M. N. O. P. Q. R. S. T. U. V. W. X. Y. Z.
The new health plan's first requirement is that the student must be enrolled as a degree-seeking graduate student in a University/ Lawrence-based program.
Andrew Gawron
Guest Columnist
I am most familiar with the pharmaceutical chemistry department, so I will
limit my discussion to this department. In our department, there are 47 full-time, degree-seeking graduate students. These students are pursuing their doctoral degrees and are enrolled full-time, year-round taking classes and conducting pharmaceutical research. So it seems they should all qualify for the new GTA/GRA health insurance.
This brings us to the second stipulation of the plan that mandates that the student hold an "appointment to at least a 50 percent GTA or GRA position during the academic year." This means the University must provide a student with 50 percent of his or her support either as a teaching assistant or research assistant. The problem lies in semantics and silly definitions. Under this definition of a GRA/GTA, out of the 47 students in the department only 16 are eligible for the health-insurance plan. Because, whether it was intentional or a simple oversight, the plan did not take into consideration those students who apply for fellowships or training grants from government organizations and/or companies.
During my first two years in graduate school, I was considered to have 50 percent GRA status because my support came directly from University/departmental funds. Last year, my research advisor encouraged me and two other students to apply for a government research fellowship.
The irony of this situation is that any graduate student who has made an effort receive a fellowship or training grant is not considered a GRA.
'These awards are an honor and a testament to the students' abilities. The fellowships provide the University with additional funds for research and education. Now my advisor has more money freed up for research that she would have otherwise had to use to pay our stipends.
All three of us received a fellowship. The fellowshins provided $45,000 to our department.
we are now considered fellows or trainees. This is simply an issue of semantics because our responsibilities have not changed. We are still full-time graduate students working toward a degree, conducting research and taking classes. Our compensation amount has not changed — only the source of that compensation. In fact, all students in the pharmaceutical chemistry department are compensated equally. The new GRA/GTA health plan is promoting inequality. Those students who have actually provided money for the University by receiving fellowships are the very people the GRA/GTA plan neglects.
Consider a 25-year-old student in our department. If that person is classified as a GRA, he or she has the option of enrolling in a comprehensive health plan for $18.08 a month. A student classified as a fellow or trainee only can enroll in the KU student health plan for $48 a month. This works out to an extra $359.04 a year the fellow is paying. The numbers get worse with age.
For students in our department, who all receive equal stipends, inequality is especially apparent. Some students may be paying as much as $800 more for health insurance simply because the University has prioritized semantics above fairness. I write this letter only with the knowledge of how the pharmaceutical chemistry department works, but I have no doubt that there are many other graduate students who think they have been shortchanged by this plan. My hope is that the legislators and KU administration are aware of this problem and working to address it. The pharmaceutical chemistry faculty have expressed their support and willingness to find a solution.
Imagine the scenario when the time comes to apply for a renewal of my fellowship. Knowing that my compensation will remain the same no matter where the money comes from, should I consider that GRA status will at least save me $359 a year, even though it will cost the University an extra $15,000? For someone age 26-31, who is required to pay more for health insurance, the decision will probably be much easier when the figure is close to $800. The new plan punishes those students who provide the University with much-needed research funds.
The University is highly regarded as a research university, and one reason for this is the amount of research money allocated from outside sources. Students on fellowships and training grants are still full-time graduate students. The University and the providers of the health plan need to reevaluate their definitions. It is unjust to continue limiting the choices and finances of those students who work hard to secure money for their departments and the University.

Panic proves ultimate incentive to write paper
Nick Bartkoski opinion@kansan.com
Any more, it seems almost impossible to enter a mail bookstore without practically swimming in self-improvement books. More often than not, they'll offer some useful system of managing time to improve efficiency. "Read us" they seem to scream out, "Read us and you'll have time to enjoy life's finer pleasures." I generally ignore these pleas and instead head with all haste toward the pornographic magazines.
But how people get things done is something that merits further research. I personally have tried several methods of time management and productivity. In fact, I believe I've tried
Using time management to produce this productivity-enhancing state of mind isn't as easy as some would lead you to believe. I think the best way to explain this method is by example. Hypothetically, the situation is that it's 8 o'clock on a Sunday evening. You have a paper due at 4 o'clock tomorrow. You haven't written anything yet, so the first course of action is obvious: Sit down and watch the X-Files.
in fact, I believe every theory except "Plan ahead and get it done early." However, since no one has ever done well using that theory, I don't feel bad about skipping it. After careful consideration of the multitude of different methods, I've found that one thing motivates productive work better than anything else; wild-eyed panic.
As the previews for next week's $X-Files$ roll, it dawns on you that you've forgotten something of course, you haven't spoken to your dear friend Chris for a few hours. So you get up from your desk and go searching for Chris. This is a task that takes roughly 30 minutes because, as you learn later, he was also looking for you, so the two of you were circling the entire building in a vain attempt to find each other.
After talking to Chris for a few minutes, you learn that he has some errands to run and wanted you to join him. You think to yourself that these errands can't possibly take longer than an hour to complete and all you have is one small little paper to write, so you agree to go with him.
You return about three hours after you left
The errands included a trip to the Topeka Wal-Mart, getting lost three times, realizing that not only does the Topeka Wal-Mart not carry plutonium, but that it's difficult to find one that does, and finally a stop at Quik-Shop for insanely large beverages. As the two of you pull into your parking lot, you're mentally going over your schedule: it's 1 a.m., you can start your paper, then finish it up in the morning after classes.
The second after you reenter your building you run into your friend McGinty. McGinty suggests that the three of you watch this week's episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000: "Wait a second," you protest. "I've got a paper I really should write." This is of course a ruse. You know that within 10 minutes you'll be watching it, but some of your mother's work ethic has stuck with you, so you protest just so your nagging conscience believes you're concerned about the paper. You know it will get done ... eventually, so you aren't too concerned.
You wake up and go to class, which you're in until 11:30. "No worries," you tell yourself, "I'll get started when I get back." When you get back, notice you’re a bit tired, so you take a half-hour nap. Following that, you plan to wake up refreshed and write your paper.
The three of you finish watching Mystery Science Theater 3000 at about three in the morning. People who are new to the system might see this as the moment of ultimate panic, involving massive amounts of coffee and prayer to get the paper written, but those who know better will hop into bed, planning to write the paper in the morning.
You sleep for three hours, and when you wake up you grougly look up at the clock. "Holy crap," you exclaim. "I've only got an hour to write this thing." This is the moment you've been building to, the moment of absolute, wild-eyed panic. You write your paper, throwing in whatever comes to your panic added mind, even to the point of mentioning how Chaucer was profoundly influenced by Shakespeare's plays. You make promises to God that you'll never pull something like this again if He'll help you out this time. Eventually, your $A+$ paper is ready to be turned in.
I'd offer even more helpful suggestions for managing your life and time to get good results, but for the love of God, it's 3:45 and I've still got to prooofhead!

Fired professor continues lawsuit
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Even though the University of Kansas and the Kansas Board of Regents prevailed in a recent court case against a former professor, the matter is not settled completely.
Last week, the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled that Emil Tonkovich's rights to due process, free speech and equal protection were not violated because of the institutions' qualified immunity to the charges. Tonkovich was fired in 1993 by the University after a female student brought forward allegations of sexual harassment to administrators.
According to appellate court documents, a first-year law student complained that Tonkovich had engaged in a sexual act with her after discussing her grades
in July of 1988.
Tonkovich argued that while he was alone with the student that night, the incident did not take place as she stated.
Tonkovich's case, which asked for $10 million in damages stemming from the firing, will be sent back to the U.S. District Court that originally tried the case. At stake this time will be a few tort claims by Tonkovich not settled by the appellate court.
Victoria Thomas, general counsel for the University and one of the defendants, said the district court would have to determine how to handle the unsettled claims, which include an accusation of breach of contract by the University.
Thomas said that any rulings by District Court Judge G. Thomas Van Bebber could be appealed by Tonkovich or any of
"Cases typically can go through a long appeals process," she said.
the defendants.
Thomas said the parties would have to see what ruling Judge Van Bebber made before the case could be completely settled. A date for this phase of the chase, which is in its fifth year of deliberations, has not been set.
Tonkovich and Richard Hutchinson, a spokesperson for Tonkovich's legal team at Landmark Legal Foundation based in Kansas City, Mo., were not available for comment.
The appellate court's conclusion stated that most of Tonkovich's case — including the allegation that the defendants conspired to remove him from the University because of his outspoken conservative beliefs — were "simply not enough to meet a plaintiff's burden on qualified immunity."
But the court was critical of how the University dealt with the situation.
"We do not know if we would have reached the same result that the Hearing Committee reached, by a close 3-2 vote," the ruling stated. "However ... the Due Process Clause (of the Constitution) is not a guarantee against incorrect or ill-advised personnel decisions."
The committee, which was composed of University faculty, gave Tonkovich the opportunity to tell his side at weekly meetings between August of 1992 and May of 1993.
In July of 1993, the committee recommended that Tonkovich be fired because his actions constituted unethical conduct in violation of the Faculty Code. This sparked Tonkovich's appeal to the Regents and the subsequent court cases.
Supreme Court to hear case about legality of searches
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Police soon may have more freedom to search vehicles, depending upon what the U.S. Supreme Court decides in a Fourth Amendment case.
Today, the court will hear an Iowa man's argument about a police search of his vehicle without permission three years ago that found marijuana. The man claims the search was a violation of his Fourth Amendment constitutional protection against unreasonable searches.
After giving Patrick Knowles a speeding ticket in 1996, police searched Knowles' vehicle without his permission — legal under Iowa statutes — and found a bag of marijuana and a pipe underneath the front passenger seat.
Knowles was arrested.
Mike Able, Wichita junior, said police needed to be more respectful of individuals' rights.
"We believe there is an overwhelming privacy issue involved, that such a search is invasive, intrusive and, frankly, offensive," said Maria Ruhenberg, Knowles' lawyer.
"I don't think they should be able to search a person's private property without their permission," or probable cause," he said.
After hearing the Knowles' arguments, the court must decide if these types of searches are constitutional.
A representative from the Douglas County District Attorney's office did not know how the decision would affect the way local law enforcement agencies conducted searches.
Ana said that if the court considered it constitutional for police to conduct searches without the vehicle owner's permission, the decision could lead to biased and discriminatory behavior by police and allow officers to justify searches based on stereotypes.
"If they don't have to have probable cause, they could easily pick a person who looks suspicious to the cop just because of his race, and search that person," Abla said.
Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said
THE LAW
Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said police could search a vehicle in Lawrence if officers had probable cause, if an arrest had been made, if police were given permission or if police had a search warrant. Police are not required to have a search warrant to search a vehicle.
that in Lawrence, besides probable cause, there are only three situations in which a vehicle search is justified: after an arrest, with the individual's permission or with a search warrant.
Vehicle searches that occur after an arrest or with permission are straight-forward, but issues start to arise when the definition of probable cause comes into question. Wheeler said.
"Basically, with probable cause, officers can search a vehicle if they believe some kind of evidence in the car could be lost," he said.
Police said evidence in vehicles can be easily destroyed or lost because vehicles are mobile.
"If I look in your car and see a stereo in the dash and one in the back seat with wires hanging out the back, that's probable cause to search." Wheeler said.
Wheeler said there was not as much urgency to search a house for evidence if police do not believe the evidence will be removed soon, because houses are immobile.
Bridget Chambers, Iowa assistant attorney general, said the justifications for a search with a ticket were the same as the justifications a search after an arrest: to protect the officer and to stop evidence from being destroyed.
"If they can arrest and search anyway, how does it protect the person's privacy to require the arrest?" Chambers asked. "We're just saying it's a lesser intrusion, actually, than an arrest plus search."
She said that if Iowa police were forced to conduct searches only following an arrest, officers could choose to make more arrests.

Abused children may remain targets when they grow up
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas professor has found through research that children who have been sexually abused continue to remain targets for abuse as adults.
Charlene Muehlenhard, assistant professor of psychology, said there were several hypotheses to explain why abuse victims continue to be victimized.
Dissociation, she said, is one explanation for why the adult remains vulnerable to victimization.
If individuals were abused as children, they may have adapted their minds to detach from their bodies in order to provide some relief from the abuse.
This ability to detach the mind from the body during harmful situations may remain with children into adulthood, making it difficult to resist effectively if they become victimized again, Muehlenhard said.
"It may make them more susceptible to rape," she said.
Muehlenhard also said that as children, abuse victims might have learned to see sex as a way to feel loved.
"If girls are sexually abused, they may become sexually active at a younger age and may have more sexual partners." Muehlenhard said.
She said the higher number of partners might leave the woman with a reputation as being easy, she said. This then would make her an easy target.
Although many sex-abuse victims are more likely to become victims as adults, Lisa Brenner said she discovered that victims also may become the sexual coercer.
Brenner, Muehlenhard's former KU student and now a licensed psychologist at Hopewell Center in St. Louis, wrote her dissertation on both the revictimization and coercing role of abuse victims.
Brenner said she studied both men and women who were abused as children and reported whether these victims had been coerced or had coerced another person into having sex.
"More women were coerced and more men coerive." Brenner said.
Brenner also said she discovered that past history of sexual abuse increased the chance of the individual being revictimized or coercing someone else into sex.
"I think this is a piece of a big puzzle," she said. "It helps us understand behavior better."

Fraternities to lose booze privileges
Mizzou officials trying to polish off binge drinking
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — When 2000 arrives on the University of Missouri-Columbia campus, some fraternities won't be allowed to party like it's 1999.
University of Missouri officials are requiring fraternity houses with freshman residents to dry out by the year 2000. The goal of the substance-free policy is to reduce binge drinking on campus, said Charles Schroeder, vice chancellor for student affairs.
Freshmen pledges make up 30 percent of the total number of students living in the university's fraternity houses. Twenty-six of the school's 30 fraternities have houses adjacent to campus, and they must decide by next spring
whether to go dry or to forego freshman residents.
Schroeder said the university had been considering the move for more than two years and that it mirrored a national trend. Three campus fraternities already are dry and seven more had planned to make the move by 2000.
Dave Sosnoff, a freshman pledge of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity, said his house's decision to go dry had made it easier to study and get things done.
Sosnoff said a dry house did not mean older fraternity members could not drink.
"There's a lot of functions that go on outside the house," Sosnoff said. "...like organized parties at bars."
Schroeder informed fraternity presidents of the new policy last week.
"Allowing alcohol to be served in fraternity houses where underage students live creates an environment conducive to alcohol abuse, and we are encouraging fraternities to go substance free rather than displace freshman who live in the house," Schroeder said yesterday in a news release.
Reaction to the announcement
has been m i x e d , Schroeder said.
The loss of freshman residents could create a financial hardship if those students are not replaced with juniors and seniors who otherwise would be moving out of the house, he said.
M
Josh Borgmeyer, a sophomore member of the Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity, said the change would be difficult to make.
"It would probably decrease house morale to some extent," Borgmeyer said. "But we could find other ways to boost house spirit."
In October 1997, the Beta Theta Pi
house was hit with sanctions after police found a freshman pledge drunk and injured following a fraternity function. The pledge was unable to explain his injuries.
Last week, a member of the Kappa Sigma house was arrested on suspicion of rape for events related to a fraternity party where alcohol was being served to minors. An investigation by police is ongoing, and the university is investigating the incident as well.
Last month, the university's Wellness Resource Center was one of six schools to get a $186,000, two-year grant from the U.S. Department of Education's Drug Free Schools Program. The money is for programs that seek to dispel myths among students about how much their peers drink.

Netanyahu, Arafat agree to delay peace agreement
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — In a surprising show of good will, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat agreed yesterday — the day the new Mideast peace agreement was to take effect — that implementation would have to be delayed.
In a telephone call, Netanyahu promised Arafat that their land-for-security agreement would be carried out as efficiently as possible. Specifically, Israel said it would attempt to meet the target date of Nov. 16 for the initial troop pullback from the West Bank.
the walls of Jerusalem's Old City.
However, an overdue Palestinian action plan to fight terrorism could knock back implementation even further. Israel said the plan, at the heart of the new accord, needed to be submitted today so the Cabinet could ratify the deal.
Led by Faisal Husseini, the senior Palestinian official in Jerusalem, Arab residents protested construction of a Jewish enclave just outside
And in traditionally Arab east Jerusalem, where Jewish settlers continued preparations for a new enclave, violent scuffles broke out yesterday between Israeli police and Palestinians.
Some 80 police officers blocked Husseini and his supporters. The two sides began pushing and shoving, and police used clubs to beat back Husseini and his bodyguards. At one point, officers put a Palestinian in a choke hold and wrestled him to the ground.
Three Palestinians and five policemen were injured.

establish their capital in east Jerusalem, which Israel captured from Jordan in the 1967 war. The final status of the city is to be determined in future negotiations.
Israeli Cabinet Secretary Danny Navhe said Israel would continue building in Jewish settlements and denied reports that the United States received assurances from Israel that it would not do so.
"Iisrael will continue its policy of strengthening and developing settlements in the West Bank." Naveh
Palestinian parliament speaker Ahmed Qureia said "Israel's continuation to build settlements comes regardless of the signed agreements ... and it is an outright breech of the agreements."
Israel has set aside $114 million from its 1999 budget for Jewish settlements in the West Bank, Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights, according to the Israeli group Peace Now, which monitors settlement activity.
The budget passed its first reading in the Knesset yesterday with members of Netanyahu's hard-line coalition, who back the settlers, voting with the prime minister.
Also yesterday, a coalition of Damascus-based radical Palestinian factions condemned the new peace accord and pledged to continue armed struggle against Israel.
At a joint news conference in Syria, the leader of one radical Palestinian group threatened to "severely punish" those who signed and helped negotiate the peace accord.
The militant Islamic group Hamas, which claimed responsibility for a suicide-bombing aimed at school children last week, also has
threatened Arafat's leadership.
Reacting to the criticism, Arafat said, "It's not the first time and won't be the last time." Waving his hand dismissively, the Palestinian leader said, "I don't care."
There were no signs that Hamas' threat had altered Arafat's determination to keep his commitments.
militiam to keep his commanders. Brig. Gen. Ghazi Jabali, the Palestinian police commander, said his men were under orders to open fire on Hamas if they felt their lives were in danger.
After the suicide attack last week, in which an Israeli soldier was killed, Arafat ordered the arrests of Hamas members and placed the group's spiritual leader, Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, under house arrest.
Yassin had to be silenced because he relentlessly criticized the Israeli-Palestinian peace agreement and was getting directions from other countries, including Iran, Jabali said.
"Sheik Yassin ... says many things against the agreement, and he received telephone calls from the outside, from Tehran, from many countries," Jabali said. "So we took this decision, the house arrest, to protect Ahmed Yassin from Ahmed Yassin."
Hurricane Mitch kills about 7,000 in Central America
The Associated Press
CHINANDEGA, Nicaragua Overwhelmed by death and chaos, Central American officials yesterday estimated more than 7,000 people died in floods and mudslides triggered by Hurricane Mitch.
As many as 1,500 people were buried near Chinandega in northwest Nicaragua when the crater lake of the Casitas Volcano collapsed, sending a wall of mud and debris onto villages below.
"It looked like a line of helicopters flying really low and coming at us. You could see houses, trees, everything being covered," said Ricardo Antonio Garcia, a 23-year-old farmer whose leg was amputated after being crushed in the mudslide.
Nicaraguan Vice President Enrique Bolanos said the slide apparently killed 1,000 to 1,500 people and that some 600 other people died elsewhere in the country.
"We perhaps will never know how many people died," be said.
trips will never know now many people died," he said. In neighboring Honduras, more than 5,000 people probably died, Dimas Alonzo, operations chief for the National Emergency Committee, told a local radio station. He said the exact number would never be
known.
Many parts of Honduras remained cut off almost a week after Mitch barreled into the Bay Island of Guanaja with 180 mph winds. The storm pounded across the isthmus, dropping up to 25 inches of rain in a six-hour period, before dissipating yesterday in southern Mexico.
The president of Honduras told CNN's Spanish-language network the flooding was so extensive that 70 percent of the upcoming harvests had been lost.
"There are many hundreds of dead," President Carlos Flores Facusse told CNN. "There are bodies that are floating in the rivers," and people on rooftops awaiting rescue, he said.
Associated Press photographer Victor Caivano, who visited Guanaja, said only 10 of the 146 houses in Mangrove Bight survived the storm, which hovered over the island for two days. The island, where flowers once abounded, was a desolate gray, with naked sticks of trees jutting out of the mud.
Virtually all of Honduras suffered flooding, from the lowland marshes on the Atlantic Coast to the mountains, hills and plateaus of the interior.
Many victims have waited days without aid.

Robertson will lead inexperienced team
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The season has just begun for the Kansas men's basketball team, but the team already looks as though it's been through a major battle.
Senior T.J. Pugh had surgery on his foot last week and is expected to miss up to four weeks of play, junior Ashante Johnson had surgery on his right knee cap Friday and is expected to miss six weeks, junior Lester Earl is still recovering from this summer's knee surgery, and freshman Marlon London is battling an injured back.
But in the midst of the storm of injuries, Ryan Robertson will provide the building block for an inexperienced group of players. It is a role the senior guard is comfortable with playing.
I'm a senior this year, and I'm automatically going to be looked at as a lead man," he said. "That's the kind of an automatic leadership role that you take, but then again, I'm also the point guard. I've also played in a lot of key roles so I think that's going to be important."
Robertson, a preseason candidate for the John R. Wooden Award for the nation's top college basketball player, returns as Kansas' leading scorer after averaging 8.3 points per game last season. But Coach Roy Williams said he expected more scoring from Robertson this season.
I think Ryan will score more than in the past," he said. "I think Ryan will be asked to do more than he has in the past. I think with Jeff (Bosehee) back there, Ryan will feel some freedom that he hasn't felt since he has been the man at quarter-back for us. That might release him to do more and play two-tuard for us."
Robertson started at point guard and led the Jayhawks to a 35-4 record last season. As a sophomore, Robertson started 11 games after point guard Jacque Vaughn was injured. Robertson led the Jayhawks to wins in each game he started, including wins against Cincinnati and the defending National Champ

BIG 2 CONFERENCE XII Preseason Basketball ST Preview
Basketball glory, title predicted for Cowboys
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
The word "confidence" sums up the attitude of the Oklahoma State Cowboys heading into the 1998-1999 basketball season
the Cowboys, whose coach Eddie Suttle is beginning his 40th year of coaching, were picked by the Big 12 coaches as the preseason favorite to win the men's basketball race in the conference.
Last year, Oklahoma State finished 11-5 in the conference and 22-7 overall, ending the season with a 79-73 loss to Duke in the second round of the NCAA Tournament.
Bernard T. McCormick
point guard Doug Gottlieb like the team's chances this season.
Eddie Sutton:
Begins 40th year of
coaching.
"I think with four returning starters and an extremely talented transfer and a couple of solid big
guys, if they step up we're potentially a top 10, top five team," he said. "If they don't, then we're not a team. We have extremely talented wings, but everybody knows you can't win without a big man."
Peterson led the Cowboys in scoring for the second straight year with 17.7 points per game and was third on the team in rebounding with 6.7 per game during his junior year. He is a preseason honorable mention All-American and is considered one of the top shooting guards in the country.
Gottlieb transferred to Oklahoma State a year ago and earned a starting spot right away. He was the Big 12 assist leader with 6.93 per game and was named by The Associated Press as the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year.
Shooting guard Adrian Peterson, the preseason player of the year in the Big 12, is the Cowboys' top returning starter.
Last season, he was named to the second-team AllBie 12 and the conference's all-underrated team.
Forward Desmond Mason joins Peterson as a member of the preseason All-Big 12 team. Mason was the Cowboys' second leading rebounder with 7.7 boards
per game and the third leading scorer averaging 14.6 points per game.
The Cowboys will get some scoring help in the seventh game of the season when transfer swingman Glendon Alexander becomes eligible to play. Alexander, the all-time leading scorer in Texas high school basketball, transferred from Arkansas after a year and a half. In seven games as a sophomore, he averaged 7.9 points per game. As a freshman, Alexander averaged 9.6 points per game and earned a spot on the SEC All-Freshman team.
The fourth starter returning is swinger Joe Adkins. Adkins started in 28 of 29 games for the Cowboys last season, averaging 12.6 points per game. His 3.4 assists per game ranked second on the team.
The question mark for the Cowboys will be in the middle. They have lost center Brett Robisch, whose 15.4 points per game and 8.2 rebounds per game were key to the team's second place finish in the conference.
Alex Webber is slated to start in the middle and is the only true center on the Oklahoma State roster, Sutton said. He will split time in the middle with Scott Robisch and Fredrik Jonzen.
Oklahoma State women looking to win respect
By Sam Mollinger
Kansan sportswriter
Junior Jennifer Crow was the team's leading scorer last season with 13.1 points per game. Despite the Cowgirls' loss of their other two double-figure scorers to graduation, Coach Dick Halterman promises it will not be a one-woman show this season.
Sophomore Devon Magness is the team's second-leading returning scorer. She scored 9.6 points per game last season, but at 6-foot-7 she brings an intimidating presence to the inside. Magness led the team in rebounds (5.7 per game) and blocks (28).
Oklahoma State University's women's basketball team may go as the Crow flies this season.
Oklahoma State was 20-11 overall last season, 10-6 in the conference.
"I think Jennifer Crow is an outstanding player," he said, "but we'll be so balanced."
"She was even more effective for us than her stats
"This could be one of the best teams we've had," Halterman said. "I think we'll be able to put more points on the board. I think we'll surprise some people this year."
It is interesting that the preseason talk of the Cowgirls revolves around offense because OSU's success traditionally comes from defense. Last season the Cowgirls led the Big 12 in scoring defense at 59.1 points per game.

Mandy Stuber. The addition of some scorers should give the defensive-minded Cowgirls a new weapon.
"Every year," she said, "you have the same Oklahoma State team, we have to out-hustle people. We're not the greatest athletes, but I think we work harder than most teams."
"We thought we didn't get much respect with the rankings," Crow said. "We thought we had a real good season last year, so we thought we'd be ranked higher."
OSU's season ended with a second-round loss to Baylor in the WNIT. The Cowgirls won 20 games for the seventh time in the last 10 seasons.
Commentary
K-State fans show maturity respect to rivals
I would like to toss some tortillas to the Kansas State fans who attended the game Saturday.
Despite predictions by Kansas City Star columnist Jason Whitlock and Dave Konda, a K-State fan who emailed me to point out how wrong my Friday column was, no goal posts were torn down after the Wildcats won.
Matt Friedrichs
sports@tansan.com
I remember the game in 1994 — in fact I watched with horror as K-State fans poured out of the North stands at Memorial Stadium and tore down the north goal posts.
I watched in 1996 as Kansas fans quickly descended to the field after the game to protect those same goal posts.
And in the back of my head Saturday, I feared that K-State fans would try to hit the goal posts after the game like the Wildcats crushed quarterback Zac Wegner in the first quarter.
Instead, none even threatened the uprights.
K-State fans have matured with their football team. They no longer need sophomoric pranks to prove their worth as fans. They do their cheering from the stands as their team totally dominates opponents.
Several K-State fans e-mailed me Friday and Saturday to disagree with my prediction that Kansas would win 31-28, and they were right.
As Carlos Galdamez wrote, "Emotions don't give you enough basis to predict a score."
Maybe he's right.
My friend Aaron Harries, another K-State graduate, wrote, "No amount of bulletin board material will inspire the 'Hawks to beat the 'Cats. We are just in a level above everybody else this year, including Nebraska."
Manhattan, or "Manhappiness" as my brother calls it, will explode with joy if the Wildcats defeat Nebraska in two weeks.
While the team may still be shut out of the National Championship game by its strength of schedule, it has been an impressive and historic season for the Wildcats.
And K-State fans, like their Kansas basketball counterparts, have had a hand in that success.
Of course, I haven't lost my emotional attachment to Kansas. And I'll continue to pick against Kansas State. However — in a nod to the class the K-State fans showed Saturday — I will pick the Wildcats to beat Missouri when the teams play Nov. 21.
Lest everyone think I've gone completely gaga about the Wildcats, here's a joke a friend from Chicago sent me that provides a small bit of solace, even after a loss.
The man sitting beside him at the bar, obviously a regular, says, "Before you tell joke, there is something you should know. I was the starting K-State quarterback from 1964-67. The gentleman to my left is an assistant to coach Bill Snyder. The large gentleman at the end of the bar is the meanest linebacker ever to play for the Wildcats. Are you sure you want to tell that joke?"
A man walks into a bar, sits down orders a beer and says, "I heard a great K-State joke today."
The newcomer to the bar scratches his chin and says, "Not if I'll be needing to explain the punch line three times."
Sure, K-State won. Sure, they're better than us. But if we played them again Saturday, I'd once again pick Kansas to win.
Friedrichs is a Bremen graduate student in journalism.

"It's very different; it's very exciting," Robertson said. "This year, more than any other year, when we win a game, we're going to be very very happy," he said. "In the past, it's been expected that we're going to win and now all of sudden it's a question. People are wondering: 'How good is Kansas going to be this year?' When we're able to beat good teams there's going to be some definite happiness in ourocker room."
As a senior at St. Charles (Mo.) West High School, Robertson was named Mr. Basketball in the state of Missouri but chose to attend Kansas instead of the University of Missouri at Columbia.
When he returns to the Hearn Center in Columbia, Mo., dressed in Jayhawk crimson and blue, Robertson is greeted with chants of "traitor" and boos from the Missouri faithful. He has yet to win a game there but hopes to turn things around this year.
Robertson said the Hearn Center was the only arena in the Big 12 where he had not won, and he was looking forward to having a chance to beat the Tigers this year.
The Jayhawks will begin preseason play Saturday at Allen Field House against the California All-Stars. The game will not be easy, partially because former UCLA players Jelani McCoy, Kris Johnson and Charles O'Bannon play for the All-Stars.
Golfer suffers fever, skips award ceremony
The 20-year-old golfer was one of three South Korean athletes chosen to receive the Order of Sport Merit (Brave Tiger), the second highest government medal given to an athlete.
SEOUL, South Korea — Se Ri Pak,
exhausted and bedridden with a cold,
missed a medal ceremony yesterday
with South Korea's president.
President Kim Dae-jung wanted to personally pin the medal on Pak, but her doctor advised her to stay at Samsung Hospital, where she was admitted Saturday. Doctors said she still has a high fever.
The other two athletes chosen to receive the medal — Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Chan Ho Park and golfer Pearl Sinn — attended the ceremony at the presidential Blue House.
Since arriving in Seoul Oct.27 for a week's visit, Pak has been besieged by the media and has attended numerous promotional events for her corporate sponsor, Samsung.
She became ill Saturday after playing in rainy conditions during the second round of the Korea LPGA. She skipped the final round Sunday.
Pak's family said it was unclear whether she would be able to play in the Japan Classic, the LPGA event that begins Friday.
Pak has four victories this year on the LPGA Tour, including the U.S. Women's Open and the LPGA Championship

K-State leader in Big 12 bowl race
Nebraska may not receive Alliance bid
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
With the release of the latest Bowl Championship Series and the various Top 25 polls, the bowl picture is shaping up nicely for the Big 12 Conference.
The national championship will be decided in
the Bowl Championship Series Alliance which includes the Fiesta, Rose, Sugar and Orange bowls. From the Big 12, Kansas State has the inside track to compete in one of the Alliance Bowls.
NCAA
Nebraska had been in the same company, but
the Cornhuskers loss to Texas Saturday hurt their chances of playing in an Alliance Bowl.
According to traditional bowl standards, and with the addition of so many bowls in the last few years, a team with six or more wins would most likely get a bowl bid.
"The season is still so open, but I think the Big
12 has six or seven teams that will receive strong consideration," said Bill Brady, director of marketing and operations for the Cotton Bowl.
The new BCS rankings were released yesterday. Ohio State and Tennessee jumped ahead of last week's No.1 team, UCLA. Kansas State is still ranked fourth, which means if the bowls were played tomorrow, the Wildcats would not get a shot at the national championship game at the Fiesta Bowl.
The new system provides a chance to have a national championship game in which the No. 1 team plays No.2. However, because there is no playoff system, this year four undefeated teams could play in bowl games.
Brady said he liked the new system and said a plavoff would not be good for college football.
"The BCS is good for college football," he said. "Playoffs would transform the college game and make it a minor league version of the NFL."
Brady added that eliminating bowl games would dramatically decrease the sizable payouts that teams receive for participating in a bowl game.
The four Alliance Bowls have a payout of more than $8 million per team. The higher rated bowls not in the Alliance, like the Cotton Bowl, have a payout of more than $2 million dollars.
The Big 12 has a contract with the Cotton, Alamo, Insight.com, Holiday and, most recently, the Independence Bowls. Bo Carter, Big 12 director of media relations, said the Big 12 was extremely pleased with the conference's bowl prospects this season as well as how well it has fared in the past.
"Playoffs would transform the college game and make it a minor league version of the NFL."
Bill Brady Cotton Bowl director of operations
"We've got a shot to get two more teams in the BCS this year," he said. "The first two years we were the only conference to have two teams in the Alliance which increased the payout by $16 million, and we've had 19 teams in bowl games over the last three years."
There are five Big 12 teams in the Top 25 — Kansas State (4), Texas A&M (7), Nebraska (14), Missouri (18) and Texas (20), and Colorado and Texas Tech have six wins each. All have legitimate shots at receiving a bowl bid. Nebraska's loss to Texas hurts the conference's chance of having two teams in the BCS. Even though Texas A&M is seventh in the BCS poll, the loser of the Big 12 Championship on Dec. 5 automatically plays an SEC team in the Cotton Bowl.
Ohio State moves back into No.1 spot
UCLA's close call was Ohio State's and Tennessee's big gain in the Bowl Championship Series standings.
Ohio State and Tennessee were first and second in the latest series standings released yesterday. UCLA dropped from first to third place after a 28-24 win against Stanford.
The standings are based on a point system calculated by using The Associated Press' media poll, the coaches' poll, three computer rankings,
The Associated Press
strength-of-schedule and number of losses They will determine who plays in the Fiesta Bowl with the national title on the line.
The final standings will be released on Dec. 6, and the toon two teams will play in Tempe, Ariz. Jan. 4.
The Buckeyes (8-0), ranked No. 1 in the AP and coaches' polls, moved from second to first place with 3.71 total points — 1 point for poll average; 1.75 points for computer rank average; 0.96 for strength-of schedule and zero for losses.
Tennessee (7-0), moved from third to second with 5.70 points —2.5 for poll average; 2.92 for
computer average; 0.28 for strength-of-schedule and zero for losses. The Vols have the seventh-toughest schedule, while the Buckeyes' schedule is rated 24th.
The Bruins (7-0), who were first last week with 3.05 points, had 6.62 points. Their poll average fell from 2 to 3.5 points and their computer average slipped from 1 to 3 points. UCLA's strength-of-schedule went from touchest to third touchest.
The rest of the top 10 included Kansas State, in fourth place, followed by Florida, Florida State, Texas A&M, Wisconsin, Penn State and Arizona.

Auction houses to sell McGwire, Sosa balls by season's beginning
Starting today with McGwire's 50th home run ball, auction houses will begin selling the collectibles that are expected to go for thousands of dollars. Christie's in New York will auction No. 50, valued at about $15,000.
ST. LOUISE — Just like they did this summer, several home run balls hit by Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa soon will be going, going — gone.
An auction house will sell McGwire's first home run ball of the season, a grand slam, on Nov. 12. That ball is estimated to be valued at $10,000 to $12,000.
Though no date has been set, Creative Properties Management Group has contracted with the owners of home run balls 63, 64, 68, 69 and 70 — considered the crown jewel of sports memorabilia. The company also has Sosa's 64th and 66th home run balls.
Michael Barnes, managing partner of Creative Properties, said offers for each of the balls were in six figures.
No. 70 is the catch of the lot,
however.
"To be competitive, you need a bid above seven figures," Barnes said.
The $93,000 that actor Charlie Sheen paid for the ball that squirred between the legs of Red Sox first baseman Bill Buckner in the 1986 World Series is
regarded as the record for a single collectible baseball.
Creative Properties says it is
The record price for any sports collectible item: a Honus Wagner card sold in September 1996 by Christie's for $640,500. The item most likely to bring the biggest bid next week at Christie's another Wagner card with an estimated value between $350,000 and $450,000.
McGwire: His home un balls are being suctioned.
Creative Profielding a hundred calls a day, from the curious to collectors to corporations. A few have expressed interest in the possibility of buying the entire lineup of baseballs, though no figures have been discussed.
PARKS ANAHEM
Only written offers are accepted. Bidders who stipulate that the balls will be put on public display at a museum or the Baseball Hall of Fame, may have the inside track. Barnes said.
The company has not decided whether the balls will be sold at auction or privately, or when.
Barnes said all the owners retained the right not to seil. He said he anticipated a sale no later than the start of the 1999 season.
Questionable health care plan causes ABC employees to strike
The Associated Press
ABC's radio operations, he said.
NEW YORK — More than 2,000 off-camera employees of ABC who work on such programs as Good Morning America and Monday Night Football walked off the job yesterday morning for a one-day strike regarding health benefits.
The strike disrupted ABC's morning television programming yesterday, resulting in faulty audio feeds and incorrect graphics during Good Morning America,union spokesman Tom Donahue said. The strike also would affect other TV shows and
However, network spokeswoman Julie Hoover said there were no disrupted feeds, adding, "There are incorrect graphics every day." ABC would continue regular programming, with managers filling in for strikers, she said.
"We have taken all necessary precautions to ensure that our telecasts will continue without interruption — and that includes Monday Night Football." Hoover said.
There were about 1,100 strikers in New York, 600 in Los Angeles, 300 in Washington, 150 in Chicago and 100 in San Francisco.
Donahue said. They included 75 members of the crew for last night's National Football League game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Dallas Cowboys.
The members of the National Association of Broadcast Employees and Technicians
camera operators, desk assistants,
courriers and other off-camera employees
— stopped working at 5 a.m. EST yesterday because of unfair labor practices, Donahue said. Strikers planned to picket ABC's New York headquarters until this morning.
Workers were striking because ABC and its parent, the Walt Disney Co., were with
holding details of Disney's health care plan, Donahue said. ABC officials have demanded that the union members abandon their current health care coverage and enroll in Disney's plan, which has not been clearly defined to them, he said. He contended that the withholding of information was illegal
The union filed an unfair-labor practice complaint with the National Labor Relations Board on July 15, a union statement said.
The information requested by the union officials relates to what insurance companies pay doctors and hospitals under the Disney health plan. Hoover said.
ABC disclosed all the information it had on the health care plan and its benefits, but what the union wanted was the insurance companies' proprietary information, ABC said in a statement that also called the strike a sneak attack.
Hoover called the strike a "pretext" to pressure ABC at the bargaining table.
The health care plan has been the subject of negotiations since the union's ABC contract expired March 31, 1997. The union represents 12,000 workers nationwide and is part of the Communications Workers of America.

Philadelphia falls to Dallas, suffers worst start since 1975
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Troy was fine, Delon was dancing and Michael scored a touchdown. Are the Dallas Cowboys back? It was hard to tell against the Philadelphia Eagles last night, but they looked much better.
The Cowboys routed the hapless Eagles 34-0 for Philadelphia's worst start since 1975.
In his first start since missing five games with a broken collarbone, Troy Alkman was 14-for-26 for 171 yards and two touchdowns. Deion Sanders returned a punt 69 yards for a touchdown, and Michael Irvin ended his
seven-game TD drought with an 11-yard catch from Alkman in the first quarter.
"I think for the first time out in five weeks, I'm pleased with my performance," said Aikman, who did not panic when he received a crushing hit on the first play of the game. "I knew I didn't get hit on the shoulder."
Emmitt Smith ran for 101 yards and a TD in his third 100-yard rushing game of the year and 52nd of his career.
The defense did its part as Dallas (5-3) recorded its first shutout ever against Philadelphia, a span of 78 games.
For the Eagles, this Monday Night Massacre was
even worse than they had feared.
"When you have a game like this in Philadelphia on Monday night, and you get all hyped up, it's difficult," said Eagles quarterback Rodney Peete, who left late in the first quarter after his finger was cut to the bone, requiring stitches. "I know I'm not going to throw in the towel, and I know a lot of guys in the locker room who are not going to throw in the towel."
with the 38-0 loss to Seattle in the home opener, the Eagles (1-7) became the first team to lose two home shutouts by more than 30 points in the same season. It
was the first time they've been shut out twice in a season since 1957 and the first time they've been shut out twice in a season at home since 1942.
The 34-point debacle was Philadelphia's worst prime time defeat since a 42-3 loss to the Rams on Nov. 3, 1975.
That was the infamous "Dog Bone Game" in which fans passed large bones around Veterans Stadium to signify that the Eagles were playing like dogs.
Dallas retained a one-game lead over Arizona in the weak NFC East and rebounded from a 13-12 loss at Chicago two weeks ago.
Jets first place in AFC East for first time
Team shows confidence reminiscent of Namath
By BARRY WILNER The Associated Press
It will sound even more incongruous if the phrase fits on Dec. 27. Only one team has not won as much as a division title since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger. That's right, the Jets.
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — The first-place
Jets. It just doesn't sound right.
right; the seers.
Yesterday, following a last-second 20-17 victory at Kansas City, the Jets stood tied with Miami, New England and Buffalo atop the AFC East. If it seems proper to find the Dolphins, Patriots and Bills leading the division, it should. They've dominated during the years.
Even the Colts have finished first in the division, but not the Jets.
"It's not fair to judge us by old Jets teams with different coaches," said linebacker Bryan Cox, who got a close-up look at the old Jets — often known as the "Same Old Jets" — while playing five seasons in Miami. "Year to year, it changes, so you can't stereotype the team. The players or the circumstances change each year."
Their record, five wins and three loses.
halfway through the season isn't much of a change for the Jets, who had the same record a year ago during Bill Parcells' first season as coach. The current record, however, was built much differently.
"Some areas we are not quite as good in: special teams and punt returns. But overall, I am more confident in the defense, although we did
play well at the end of last year. And offensively, we have more weapons."
what these Jets have, thanks to a three-game winning streak and five victories in six weeks, is more confidence than, well, perhaps since the days of Joe Namath.
JETS
Their last two road games were at New England and Kansas City, 1997 division winners and considered among the elite of the AFC for 1998. New York won both games, made dozens of clutch plays.
The Jets' division record is three wins
and no losses heading into Sunday's home game with the Bills. After that comes a visit to Indianapolis, the weak link in the AFC East.
New York survived in the wind and rain of Arrowhead Stadium by making special teams plays on a day when the elements and the Chiefs defense took away such weapons as Johnson (one catch) and Curtis Martin (30 rushes for 42 yards, the worst out of his career). The Jets made those plays sporadically last year, when the Jets lost three of their four to barely miss the playoffs at 9-7.
"We have veteran leadership here. We've got playmakers all around them. We're very confident and poised in the huddle. We have the opportunity to go somewhere if we just continue like this. If we can get by Buffalo and Indy, you might start to see something special."
link in the A/C base.
"If we continue to play good football like the last three weeks," receiver Keyshawn Johnson said. "I think we can do something. I think we are a tough team that is going to fight until the end.
"It shows the character of this team," resurrected quarterback Vinny Testaverde said, "to be able to go on the road in a tough environment and bad conditions and be able to pull out a win in the last seconds. We have a lot of heart on this team that is showing up on Sundays."
Kerry Collins charged with drunk driving early yesterday morning
The Associated Press
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Kerry Collins, admitting he broke the law, was charged with drunken driving yesterday, hours after being taunted by Carolina Panthers fans in his return to the city where he once was applauded.
A police report said Collins, now a backup quarterback for the New Orleans Saints, was stopped after the car he was driving was observed crossing the center line on a downtown Charlotte street about 12:50 a.m.
"Obviously I made a mistake. I don't think there's any question about that." Collins told WBTV as he prepared to board
L
a flight yesterday afternoon to New Orleans. "It was bad judgment on my part.
"Whatever happens, I'm going to have to live with it. That's the facts. I broke the law."
An affidavit filed by the arresting officer described what he found when Collins got out of the car: "very strong odor of alcohol, red and glassy eyes, slurred speech, unsteady on his feet."
Collins signed autographs for jail employees while he was being processed, and a TV crew waiting outside captured him on tape with a large cigar in his mouth as he left the facility.
Collins, 25, refused to take a breath test. In accordance with North Carolina law, he automatically loses his driver's license for 12 months. He posted a $1,000 bond, was given a Nov. 12 court date and released from the Mecklenburg County Jail.
The arrest represented another dark chapter for Collins, who became the Panthers' first-ever draft choice in 1995. But he failed to live up to the franchise's hope of becoming its cornerstone player.
He was benched last month and subsequently cut after coach Dom Capres said Collins told him he had lost the will to play. He was picked up by the Saints, but did not play Sunday when New Orleans lost 31-17.
Collinis was an early success story for the Panthers, leading them in 1966 to the NFC Championship game. He played in the Pro Bowl that season.
Collins spent the afternoon hearing
repeated derisive chants from many in the Ericsson Stadium crowd of 62,514. He was arrested about nine hours after the game, about two miles from the stadium in an area filled with bars and restaurants.
"It's unacceptable behavior." New Orleans general manager Bill Kuharich said, adding that the Saints planned to conduct a medical review to determine if Collins has a drinking problem. "The next step would be obviously to get our team physician to make an evaluation."
practical so make Collins also could face disciplinary action from the NFL. A conviction on a charge of driving while impaired would represent a violation of the league's substance abuse policy and leave him subject to a fine of up to $20,000.
When his flight arrived in New Orleans, Collins avoided reporters in the terminal by getting an escort from four Jefferson Parish deputies. They led him out a side door to a police car that carried him to the team's practice facility.
The Saints returned to New Orleans immediately after the game, but coach Mike Ditka allowed Collins, Chad Cota and Eric Gulford — all former members of the Panthers — to stay behind in Charlotte.
"The last thing I told him was, 'It's a very hostile environment down there. Can you handle that?'" Ditka said. "And he said, 'I'm not going to get into any trouble.'"
Steve Beuerlein, Collins' successor as Carolina's quarterback and a close friend, said he and Collins were joined by several other players, their families and friends at the Sunset Club after the game. Beuerlein said when he left the club about 9:30 p.m., Collins seemed fine.
"I had no reason to think that there was going to be any news today at all," Beuerlein said. "I feel terrible for Kerry."
Highway Patrol trooper R.A. Benge said he arrested Collins after pulling over a 1995 Lexus.
"I was not aware that it was Mr. Collins before I stopped the vehicle," Benge said. "He was very polite."
Ditka had said last week that he wanted to start Collins later this month. Yesterday, the coach said he was unsure how the player's arrest would affect those plans.
"I don't think he's a bad kid," Ditka said. "I do think maybe he's lost right now. I say that because he obviously doesn't understand what's best for his career or what's best for the Saints."

Law of the Land
Supreme court to decide cases
President's command of military questioned
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court, tackling the case of an HIV-positive Air Force major imprisoned for having unprotected sex, agreed yesterday to resolve a dispute about the president's power as the nation's military commander-in-chief.
The court will decide whether the president may drop from the armed forces rolls any commissioned officer jailed for more than six months under a court-martial conviction that has become final.
The justices voted to review a ruling that struck down a 1996 law in which Congress gave the president such authority. The military's highest court ruled in April that the law wrongly punished someone twice for the same crime.
James Goldsmith, an Air Force major, is infected with the virus that causes AIDS. After he was diagnosed as HIV-positive, Goldsmith was ordered by a superior officer to inform sexual partners of his health status and to use methods, including condoms, to prevent infecting others.
Goldsmith was convicted in 1994 of having unprotected sex with two women, willfully disobeying the "safe-sex" order while stationed at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas.
Sentenced to six years in prison, he retained his rank and military status even after being imprisoned at Fort Leavenworth. His ensuing appeal was rejected by an Air Force appellate court, and his conviction became final.
Goldsmith was notified in late 1996 that the Air Force was seeking, under the federal law enacted earlier that year, to have the president drop him from its rolls. Such action, among other things, would strip him of health-care coverage.
Goldsmith's shortened prison term expired in October 1997, and he returned to duty status. He appealed the Air Force's attempt to drop him, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Armed Forces blocked such a move.
Discriminators also may pay punitive damages
The Associated Press
The Supreme Court will help decide how much employers can be forced to pay when they discriminate against workers based on race, religion, national origin or sex.
The justices said yesterday they would decide, by July, whether the American Dental Association can avoid paying more money to a woman it illegally failed to promote.
Carole Kolstad lost out on getting a high-ranking job in the Chicago-based association's Washington office. She sued and won, but a federal appeals court barred her from collecting "punitive damages" designed to punish and deter wrongdoers.
The appeals court, voting 6-5, ruled that such damages were available in employment-bias cases only when "egregious conduct" was proved. Other appeals courts, however, have allowed punitive damages whenever intentional discrimination has been proved.
Kolstad was working as the dental association's director of federal agency relations when in 1982 the group's director of legislation announced his retirement. Kolstad and another Washington office employee, Tom Spangler, expressed interest in the vacancy.
Spangler got the job, and Kolstad sued. Her lawsuit contended that the American Dental Association had selected Spangler even before the formal selection process began, and that it was motivated by sexual bias against her.
A federal jury found that the American Dental Association had illegally discriminated against Kolstad, and awarded her $52,718 in back pay. Specifically, the jury said the association had violated a federal anti-bias law known as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
The trial judge presiding over Kolstad's case refused to let the jury consider awarding punitive damages, but a three-judge federal appeals court panel reversed the judge's decision and ordered reconsideration of that issue.
Kolstad's victory was overturned, however, when the entire U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, voting 6-5 in May, said she was not entitled to punitive damages.
White House favors U.N. response to Iraq
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration appears ready to let the U.N. Security Council take the lead in confronting Iraq
about the country's refusal to permit inspections for weapons of mass destruction.
Top national security officials met at the White House for a second day Sunday to work on a response to Iraq's defiance, and there seemed little chance of an immediate military response.
ALAN KOCH
Hussein: Country refusing weapon inspections.
Iraq banned U.N. inspection teams from working in the country Saturday after the Security Council renewed its refusal to lift economic sanctions against Iraq. The council then demanded unanimously that Iraq reverse its ban.
France and Russia, council members that have taken more lenient positions on relaxing
the sanctions in the past, firmly rebuked Iraq and called for compliance with the U.N. Special Commission, known as UNSCOM.
"I personally am very pleased that the U.N. Security Council, including some people I thought had been a little tolerant with him in the past, strongly condemned what he did," President Clinton said in an interview Sunday with American Urban Radio Network.
Clinton was briefed but did not attend the meeting of his advisers. No additional U.S. forces were being moved to the Persian Gulf region, and U.S. forces had not been placed on alert, said Pentagon representative, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Anthony Cooper.
Defense Secretary William Cohen said unilateral U.S. military action against Iraq always had been an option but that he preferred to act with U.S. allies.
"The preference is to keep it exactly where it is today, a contest between Iraq and the United Nations," Cohen told reporters at Andrews Air Force Base just outside Washington after he returned from an aborted trip to Asia. "The best thing is for Saddam to comply with these agreements."
Gates' video testimony viewed at antitrust trial
Saddam Hussein is the president of Iraq.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Microsoft chairman Bill Gates took center stage at his company's antitrust trial yesterday, appearing on TV and computer screens throughout a federal courtroom as the government tried to show he masterminded plans to crush his competition.
Federal attorneys played portions of a videotaped deposition of Gates as they tried to prove his company illegally wielded its industry influence to stifle competition.
The government focused on the role Gates played in securing a surprise August 1997 deal with archival Apple Computer and on a disputed meeting two years earlier between Microsoft and Netscape.
While Gates is a key figure in the case, he will not appear in person. During the government's opening statement last month, Justice Department attorney David Boies showed brief excerpts of Gates' testimony to contradict internal e-mail Gates had sent.
The same strategy played out yesterday as the government showed clips of a defiant Gates.
Often he would delay before responding to questions. Sometimes he would give short answers and sometimes drawn-out statements. On the videotape, government attorneys frequently accused him of failing to respond directly.
Microsoft called playing the tapes a personal attack on Gates and an attempt to shift the focus from hits inflicted on the government's case over the last few weeks.
"It's clearly an attempt to sensationalize the case and distract people's attention from the weakness of the government's case," said Microsoft representative Mark Murray.
Gates, whose wildly successful Windows operating system has made him the richest man in the world, is renowned for his aggressive business techniques. The government wants to prove that Gates applied a take-noprisoners strategy to dominate competitors.

CONGRESS
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
OVERLAND PARK — Dennis Moore held up a sign last night saying, "We shouldn't have much trouble winning."
"I ran for Congress to make sure we have a better America," he said.
"If we win this election, I want to really try to get more students energized," he said. "The issues really do affect them."
The race was closely watched as one of the most competitive races in Kansas. Moore paced back and forth in his private office as votes were tallied.
He attributed the quotation to Republican incumbent Vince Snowbarger, whom he defeated in last night's 3rd District Congressional race 52 percent to 48 percent.
Scott Moore, Dennis' son and KU graduate, said his dad had been on campus as often as possible trying to get votes.
On the verge of victory, Moore's wife, Stephene, tried to get the candidate to relax.
The crowd erupted as Moore entered St. Andrews Country Club to give his victory speech.

Moore said he had hoped the students at the University of Kansas would show up at the polls. Moore visited campus three times in eight days to urge students to vote for him.
Before Moore knew he had won, he already was commenting about the students.
"We were there for the KU-KState game," he said. "It was great. Here

it was pouring rain, and Dad's out there shaking hands trying to get people to vote for him."
Maleia Rome, Hays senior, said that Moore had the support of young voters.
“It’s obvious that he is concerned about the young population,” she said. “He has kids. His position as Johnson County District Attorney made him deal with youth. He’s very in touch with our age group.”
Arnold Cole, a Moore supporter, said that Snowbarger hurt his own chances by not appealing to a broader base of voters.
"Dennis represents the middle ground, very tolerant of varying cultures," he said. "Snowbarger represents a very narrow group, and that is the extreme right."
Allen Weingarten, Moore supporter, was thrilled with Moore's victory.
"I myself am handicapped, and Dennis will help with the handicapped," he said.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said that Moore won the race in Wyandotte and Douglas counties. Loomis said that despite Moore's hard campaigning on campus, he would be surprised if more than 20 percent of students voted.

University to allow minors for CLAS
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences students will have the opportunity to graduate with a minor in addition to their major as soon as 2000.
The 32 members present last night at the meeting of the College Assembly, the governing body of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, voted unanimously to pass the proposal by the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising.
The proposal indicated that bachelor of arts and bachelor of science students would have the opportunity to earn a minor, which would be recognized on transcripts and eventually on diplomas.
Bachelor of general studies students would be required to earn a minor rather than the current junior/senior concentration requirement. That would mean an additional nine hours for B.G.S. degrees.
Minors must be in areas outside a student's major and can be from a department or school outside the college.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the
NEW DEGREE POLICY
"I think it's a really good opportunity for students to add things to their diploma or transcripts," said Alicia Ambsaugh, Attichion junior. "Job opportunities would be greater."
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences students will be able to earn minors to complement their majors.
The minimum requirements for minors are:
College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, said she had visited with several students the last two years who had wanted to earn minors. The University of Kansas is the only Big 12 institution that does not offer minors.
A minimum 2.0 grade point average in the minor.
"Many students know a minor is available at other schools," Frost Mason said.
Pam Houston, director of the college undergraduate program, said students probably could graduate and return to the University later and complete a minor.
18 credit hours within the minor with 12 of those junior/senior hours.
The requirements for minors will be outlined by the individual departments. The minimum requirement for a minor would be 18 credit hours, 12 of them at the junior or senior level.
She said that now the only options for students who wanted to concentrate in multiple areas was a double major or co-major, which often would take extra time and money.
Graves to lead state for four more years
By Chris Fickett
Kansan staff writer
TOPEKA — Gov. Bill Graves became the first Republican governor to win re-election in Kansas since 1962.
Graves and Lt. Gov. Gary Sherrer were heavy favorites going into election day. Earlier in the week, representatives from Graves' campaign said that they expected to break the record for the largest margin of victory in a Kansas governor's race.

Spending also was important to Graves' re-election. Kansas Democratic Pary Chairman Dennis Langley said that Graves outspent Sawyer 10 to one.
The wide margin in spending was evident at both Democratic and Republican party gatherings on election night.
At the Days Inn Capital Center, about 100 Kansas Democratic Party supporters gathered at 7 p.m. yesterday to await the election results, only to hear minutes later that Graves was declared the winner.
Across town at the Sunflower Ballroom at the Kansas Expocentre, Graves and the Republican Party put on a grand celebration.
Graves spoke with his daughter, Katie, on his shoulder.
Hundreds packed the ballroom as Graves approached the podium to give his acceptance speech.
"Today, I am ready to accept the overwhelming responsibility to lead this state for four more years." Graves said.
Graves said that he had contacted Democratic opponent Tom Sawyer by phone before his speech.
"I commended him on a fine campaign," Graves said.
GOP loses U.S. House seat after 37 years
Snowbarger defeated by slimmest of margins
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
OVERLAND PARK — By the slimmest of margins, Republican U.S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger of Olathe suffered defeat yesterday at the hands of attorney Dennis Moore, D-Lenexa.
It is the first time the 3rd Congressional District of Kansas has been in democratic hands for 37 years.

night party at the Doubletree Hotel was hopeful most of the evening.
Results were posted on a board as precincts around the district reported in, and hundreds of party-goers anxiously watched news reports.
As the night progressed, the mood became more tentative. But the Republicans were not willing to concede.
A. M. HARRISON
At about 10:15 p.m., the congressman came down from his private suite at
the note to address his supporters. He was accompanied by his wife, two sons and father.
Moore already had declared victory at a party just a few miles away.
Snowbarger received a prolonged standing ovation from the crowd.
this is too close to call," Snowbarger said. "But we are seeing trends, and we're concerned about those trends."
Snowbarger was referring to the results that had come in showing Moore slightly leading with only a few precincts left to report.
Some University students were supportive of Snowbarger.
"I didn't think Dennis Moore was very straightforward with people," McAvan said.
Pat McAvan, DeWitt, La., third-year law student, said he cast his vote for Snowbarger.
straightforward with people, McAvan said. He said Moore misrepresented his law career.
"He hasn't prosecuted in years," McAvan said. "That was kind of misleading, and I didn't appreciate it."
Kristen Mort, Lawrence senior, agreed with Snowbarger's positions on issues such as tax cuts and Social Security reform. She said trust was an issue as well.
The support did not turn out to be enough.
"I trust that he is a conservative, and I trust he'll make good decisions," Mort said.
To conclude his speech, Snowbarger, who had served for 12 years in the Kansas House before going to Washington for two years, said he had learned a lesson from his son.
His son was in a tough football game in which he was predicted to lose. Despite a loss, Snowbarger said his son played his heart out and displayed honor. The analogy was clear even without a true concession speech.
Office of Comptroller missing deposits of KU groups
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
KU police are investigating the possible theft of $4,190 that allegedly was deposited at the Office of the Comptroller.
Five deposits from three different University of Kansas groups are missing and have not been credited to the groups' accounts. The comptroller's office reported the missing money to the KU Public Safety Office last Wednesday and Thursday.
"I would be hesitant to holier Thief, thief" until an investigation has occurred," said Lindy Eakin, associate provos for support services.
"There's a presumption of innocence."
Eakin said that the Office of the Comptroller had conducted an internal audit before reporting the missing denosits to police.
One of the missing deposits, Eakin said, were checks that had not been cashed.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said he did not know whether the alleged deposits were made through a night drop box or inside the comprolier's offices.
"Stealing checks made out to the University of Kansas isn't exactly a way to get rich because you can't cash them," he said.
Eakin said that possibilities besides theft could explain the missing deposits.
"Either our procedures were not good and we have misplaced the
Regardless of whether the police investigation determines that the deposits were stolen, Eakin said, something has gone wrong in the Office of the Comptroller that needs to be corrected.
"This occurred at a time when we were heavily involved in fee payment," he said. "In the comptroller's office, the concern is, given the volume and what we were dealing with, did we put (these deposits) in the wrong place?"
Eakin also mentioned another possible explanation for the missing funds.
deposits or someone has done criminal activity," he said. "Either way, we need to investigate the problem and fix it."
"Part of what the police have to investigate is, do we know the deposits actually made it to the comproiler's office?" he said.
The five missing deposits are: $240 from the Hall Center for Humanities, deposited between July 29 and Oct. 16; $1,640 from International Student Services, deposited between August 9 and Oct. 16; and $505, $450, and $655 from the KU Card Center, deposited between Sept. 8 and Oct. 16.

Speedway lawsuit delays construction
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The proposed speedway in Wyandotte County is facing another obstacle.
Another lawsuit filed by homeowners displaced by the Kansas International Speedway has left the Unified Government of Wyandotte County and Kansas City, Kan., wondering when it will be able to sell bonds to finance the $208-million project.
Local government cannot sell bonds for a project that is being litigated in the courts under Kansas law.
The government and racetrack opponents already were awaiting a judge's decision on one lawsuit from homeowners when another was filed last week. The lawsuit from Margaret and Robert E. Pitts claims there was an illegal price fixing scheme designed to take the Pitts' property for the racetrack and not give them just compensation.
The Pitts' lawsuit is a class-action lawsuit on behalf of the 146 households displaced by the project. Many of those households already have sold their property and moved away.
The lawsuit asked for a judgment against the defendants to halt the property acquisition. It also asked the court to rule that the property acquisition agreement between the government and the ractrack corporation was illegal and unconstitutional.

Supreme Court hears case on police searches
WASHINGTON — Several Supreme Court justices expressed doubts yesterday about giving police blanket authority to search people's cars when ever they are stopped and ticketed for routine traffic violations.
The court is expected to rule by July whether an Iowa man's rights were violated by a police search of his car that turned up marijuana.
Patrick Knowles argued that the search violated the Constitution's Fourth Amendment protection against unreasonable searches. Iowa courts allowed the marijuana to be used as evidence, and Knowles was convicted and sentenced to 90 days in jail.
The Supreme Court ruled in 1973 that police can search people upon arrest, citing a need to disarm suspects and preserve evidence.
iowa law allows police to either make an arrest or issue a citation for traffic violations. If they issue a citation, they
still can make a search.
The Iowa Supreme Court has interpreted the provision to allow police to conduct a search whenever they could have arrested someone, even if they decide instead to issue a citation.
Justice Anthony M. Kennedy said this interpretation law now allows police to conduct a search prior to arrest.
Drug decreases AIDS in patients, study says
NEW YORK — An experimental drug cut the level of the AIDS virus in patients' blood by as much as 99 percent in two weeks, according to the preliminary results of a study.
That is as potent as approved drugs, which can drive the virus down to undetectable levels when taken longer. The experimental drug, called T-20, showed the 99-percent reductions in the four patients who took the highest dose.
The drug sabotages HIV machinery for penetrating into the body's cells, a different strategy from that used in approved HIV medications.
Unlike the standard medications, T-20 wouldn't work as a pill, and it was given by injection to the 16 patients in the two-week study. Results are reported in the November issue of the journal Nature Medicine by scientists at the University of Alabama at Birmingham and the drug company Trimeris Inc. of Durham, N.C. Trimeris is developing T-20.
In an accompanying editorial, Douglas Richman, physician, of the University of California, San Diego, cautioned that much more study will be needed to assess the usefulness of T-20.

European rights court to handle more cases
BRUSSELS, Belgium — The Council of Europe inaugurated a streamlined European Court of Human Rights in Strasbourg, France, that it hopes will deal faster with citizens' complaints.
"Nearly 800 million Europeans will have access to this court," Daniel Tarschys, the secretary-general of the Council of Europe, said at the Inauguration ceremony yesterday.
The new court will work full time, unlike the old one that operated one week every month and handled about 100 cases a year, said council representative Kathy Burton.
"We're hoping the new system will speed up the procedure quite dramatically." Burton said.
The court rules on infringements of the 1950 European Human Rights Convention that was signed by all 40 nations in the Council of Europe. Citizens from those nations can bring cases to the European court after they have exhausted legal options in their home countries.
Under the old court system, rulings often took years.

Holcomb man dies after game while on bus
By Keith Burner
Cansan staff writer
A 49-year-old Holcomb man died following Saturday's Kansas-Kansas State football game after boarding a bus at Memorial Stadium.
The cause of Thomas Maestas' death has not been determined, but authorities said they suspected he died of a heart attack.
Authorities expect the results of an autopsy in about a week.
Maestas died at about 3:15 p.m. at 11th and Mississippi streets aboard a bus owned by Lawrence Bus Co., 837 Pennsylvania St.
The bus had been contracted by the University of Kansas Athletics Department to transfer people parked at the Burge Union and Robinson Gymnasium to the stadium, said Susan Wachter of the KU Athletics Department
Witnesses said that after boarding the bus with family members, Maestas' breathing became labored and then stopped, said Lawrence police Sgt. George Wheeler.
George Whieler.
The bus driver then contacted his supervisor, using the bus radio. The supervisor then called 911.
Police said he was then transported to Lawrence Memorial Hospital where he was pronounced dead.
Lawrence-Douglas County Fire and Medical arrived about six minutes following his collapse, said Battalion Chief Brian Lawrence.
Lawrence said paramedics would have reached Maestas sooner, but they had trouble finding the correct bus amid all the other busses and the post-game confusion.
Lawrence police said that they had no suspicion of foul play in the death because the man had a history of medical problems.

Design professor dies at 45 in home; faculty, students tell of his impact
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Colleagues are mourning the death of Lonn Beaudry, a University of Kansas professor remembered for his wit and innovative teaching style.
Beaudry, associate professor of design, died at his Kansas City, Mo., home last Wednesday. He was 45.
Beaudry taught six classes at the University, mainly on graphic design and corporate identity systems, said Joe Zeller, chairman of design.
The Jackson County coroner said the cause of death was undetermined.
Zeller said students used to delay signing up for other courses so they could make sure to get Beadury's classes.
"Lonn Beaudry was an exceptional teacher," Zeller said.
"When he lectured on the Bauhaus, they had a color scheme, and he would come dressed in that color scheme," Zeller said.
"He really brought history to life."
Beaudry had taught at the University since 1986. Previously, he had taught at the Kansas City Art Institute and the Jacob Kramer College in Leeds, England. In 1989, he was a finalist for the H.O.P.E. Award for Excellence in Teaching.
Roger Beard, Beaudry's companion of 19 years, said that the family had received a letter from Beaudry's former students at the Kansas City Art Institute.
Beard said the students wrote: "You should know what an influence Lonn had
on all our lives ...We are all better people today for having had the fortune to have Lonn as a teacher."
Beaudry was an artist and designer as well as a professor. His first job after graduation from the Cranbrook Academy of Art was for the firm of Hermann and Lees Design. He also created many paintings and pieces of furniture.
"He loved S w i s s design and F r a n k L l o y d Wright and the Mission school," Beard said.
Zeller said one of Beaudry's former students, Jill Coppess, was working on develop

ing an exposition of his works that would travel to different schools.
Funeral services were held for Beaudry Monday in Kansas City, Mo.
Zeller said that Beaudry was a productive and well-loved faculty member who would be missed.
"I think Lonn was more than a colleague to us," he said. "He was a friend to everyone on this faculty. The faculty loved this person."
Lecturers will cover Beaudry's classes while the department runs a search to find a full-time professor, Zeller said.
Faculty equality has room to improve
Building a great university
Third of 10
I
"My vision of KU is that of a great university. To be a great University we must ... not only ensure that we have a personnel system in which both men and women encounter no barriers to their personal and professional goals... explore the possibility of enabling any KU fulltime employee to take at least one course each semester tuition free... if we really believe in education as a means of improving the work force, then we need to invest in that belief."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway
1995 Faculty Convocation address
Chancellor Robert Hemenway wants to make the University of Kansas a place of equality for men and women. He also wants the University to remove barriers facing KU employees who want to advance their educations.
By Chad Bettes
Kanson staff writer
Hemenway said in his 1995 Faculty Convocation speech that a great university has no "glass ceiling" and invests in human development.
Three years later, the University has made progress on both counts, but Hemenway and others at the University admit the job is not finished.
Dann Hayes, a representative from University Relations, said that this fall the number of women faculty members had risen to 440, or 32.6 percent of all faculty. There are 909 men on the faculty, 43 fewer than in 1995.
In the fall of 1995, the University had 367 female faculty members, representing 27.8 percent of all faculty.
Ola Faucher, director of human resources, said the University had made a concerted effort to improve.
"The University is committed to diversity in faculty and staff in its work force," Faucher said. "Schools
and staff in its work force, are trying very hard to get female faculty in traditionally male areas such as engineering and physics."
Ann Cudd, associate professor of philosophy, said there was frustration in finding female professors for disciplines such as philosophy. She said the number of female faculty in her department had decreased from three to one. One problem she cited was that only 20 percent of faculty in philosophy nationwide are women.
"I can't recognize a lot of progress," Cudd said. "But my local perspective is different."
She said that overall there were faculty gains for women, but that issues
MENTORING
Rite Kean, University of Nebraska professor, spent last year as a below at the University of Kansas. In that year, Chancellor Hemenway was Kean's mentor and gave her the authority to study various aspects of the University.
At 3:30 p.m. today, Kean will be at the Hall Center for the Humanities, 211 Watkins Home, to report her findings on the University's climate for women.
such as tenure were troubling. She said last year was a bad year for women seeking tenure, with four or five women denied. No men were denied, she said.
"The things I have noticed may be temporary phonema. Cudd said, "I am cautiously optimistic."
in administration, women are represented in smaller numbers than men. But women do play a role in Hemenway's administration.
Of the eight department heads who report directly to the chancellor, three of them are women -Victoria Thomas, general counsel; Theresa Klinkenberg, director of administration; and Deborah Teeter, director of institutional research and planning.
University's grade:
I
(Incomplete)
Sandra Gautt, assistant provost, gave the University an Incomplete for its progress breaking the glass ceiling. She said that the University was passing, but that the requirements had not yet been met.
I
Lindy Eakin, associate provost, gave the University an A for its progress in offering faculty educational opportunities.
The provost and vice chancellors are men, but women serve as assistant and associate provosts, assistant and associate chancellors, and dean positions. Sally Frost Mason is the dean of the largest school in the University, liberal arts and sciences.
Women also are in many other lower-level administrative positions.
Sandra Gaunt, assistant provost, said it was hard to tell in a two-to three-year period how much progress had been made toward equality for women at the University. She said that amount of time illustrated a point in time rather than a pattern.
The chancellor set a significantly ambitious agenda," Gautt said. "The institution has clearly made gains."
At the same time, she said, the University needed to maintain its focus on the area of equality or risk falling back. Mentoring and aggressive recruitment would be key to continued progress, Gaunt said.
"Without mentoring, I don't think I'd be where I am today," she said. "I never really thought I'd be in administration, but I developed a fascination with how the place I worked functioned."
She thought mentoring would do the same thing for other women.
Despite circumstances that he said made it difficult to achieve equality in numbers, Hemenway said he still was shooting for continued progress.
"I'm pleased when I see things moving in the right direction," Hemenway said. "But if you reach a point of self satisfaction, you lose your ambition."
With regard to educational opportunities for staff members, the chancellor expanded a program that allowed them to take classes at the University without paving tuition.
Lynn George, employment manager in human resources, said that in 1996, 33 people took part in the program. In 1998, 78 were approved to take classes. Faculty members are not eligible for the program because most of them already have advanced degrees.

NOISE POLLUTION COMLAINT-10:15A.M.
Tim McCabe/ KANSAN
Editorials
Speed is no longer the only thing drivers have to worry about keeping down; radios, too, now must stay low. The city of Lawrence has plans to impose an ordinance prohibiting drivers from playing loud music on their car stereos. If an officer can hear the music from 50 feet or five car lengths away, offenders could receive a maximum penalty of $500 and imprisonment for six months.
Car stereo ordinance unnecessary; police may enforce it unequally
The noise ordinance is another way for law to infringe upon citizens' lives, and it should not have a place in Lawrence.
Although Marty Kennedy, Lawrence mayor, said he received a number of complaints from residents, vehicle passengers and drivers regarding loud car stereos, citi
If music from a car can be heard from 50 feet away, it would violate the ordinance.
zens should not have to turn their sterees down.
The sound coming from a car radio is brief. The vehicle is moving, and only for a moment does one hear loud music before the car is gone. However, if an officer hears the noise during that brief moment, a driver enjoyings his favorite song could end up writing a hefty check or spending some time in jail.
The ordinance will be too subjective.
The authorities will not have
devices for measuring decibel levels, and the 50-foot distance most likely will be a guess. In effect, there is no official way to determine whether the music is too loud. The absence of a standard more reliable than the officers' discernment leaves potential offenses to be determined on the sole basis of an officer's opinion.
The noise ordinance is an erroneous way of forcing courtesy upon drivers. Instead of punishing drivers for having loud music, Lawrence police jus should remind drivers to keep their music at a low decibel level. And instead of cruising the streets of Lawrence with music blaring from their stereos, drivers should be more conscientious of whom they disturb while driving.

Any group that hazes is wrong
There is more than one way to haze a student, and there is more than one community on campus that participates in hazing.
Some athletic teams recently have been accused of violating the hazing rules that traditionally have been associated with the Greek community.
Hazing has no place at the University of Kansas, no matter what form it takes. Any athletic team, varsity or club, that is found guilty of hazing should be dealt the same degree of punishment that would be given to a fraternity or sorority.
Many initiation or celebration rituals that are passed off as "all in good fun" or "bonding the team" are immature, degrading and
Athletes have a role to play in curbing sports-team hazing rituals.
sometimes dangerous.
One form of hazing that is believed to be prevalent on sports teams at Kansas and other Big 12 schools is the "whipping boy" or "whipping girl."
The whipping boy or girl is forced by teammates to submit to embarrassing behaviors, such as wearing an orange construction cone on his or her head at all times. Other hazed athletes are taken to public places, encircled by their teammates and forced to
remove their clothing.
The variety of hazing and its prevalence on different teams may not be as great a problem as it has appeared to be in the greek community, but it should not be overlooked.
There is little, if anything, the athletic department can do to control the actions of club teams, and the University may be hesitant to expose any tasteless actions performed by its varsity athletes.
The responsibility falls, therefore, on the students who are involved with hazing. It is up to the athletes to have the courage to throw out any hazing traditions their team may harbor.

Perspective
Loud music law leaves bad vibes with youth
In less than 30 days, the Lawrence City Commission may pass an ordinance that will prohibit people from playing loud music in their cars.
If a driver's stereo can be heard 50 feet away from his or her car, then that person can be fined and jailed. The minimum fine will be $50 and the maximum possible fine will be $500 and up to six months in jail.

In a way, this ordinance confuses me. Why would this particular type of infraction need its own ordinance? Couldn't it simply be regulated by "Dissturing the peace" laws?
The ordinance itself only
The orumance itself only acknowledges loud amplified music emanating from an automobile. That is its only purpose. If you scream out of your car at someone on the sidewalk, it is considered disturbing the peace. If your car itself makes noise because of the condition it is in, that also falls under disturbing the peace.
Why then, is there a need for a specific ordinance to regulate this infraction?
Marty Kennedy, Lawrence mayor, said the reason was to insure the safety of motorists whose ability to hear police and ambulance sirens would be restricted by loud music.
If you are walking down Massachusetts street and you hear the wailings of Black Sabbath from a passing car at a good distance, the driver of that car is violating the ordinance. The driver is violating the ordinance even though you are not driving; that is the stipulation which must be adhered to with the 50 feet parameter.
If you are at a stoplight, though, and the car next to you is playing Garth Brooks so loud that you can't hear yourself think, the driver is not breaking the law — even if you can't hear the approach of coming sirens. Therefore, a car that you are next to, be it at a traffic light or driving side-by-side down the road, could never break the ordinance because the distance is not great enough.
So, you must be either in front of or behind a car, at the distance of 50 feet, or as Dave Corliss, city director of legal services, puts it, five car lengths, to be in the appropriate range where the other driver's music is sufficiently disruptive.
Buses and semis would not fall prey to this ordinance or even a disturbing the peace ordinance, even though you can hear the campus buses approaching at least 100 yards away. They could potentially endanger drivers by makingvens inaudible. But they aren't playing "loud music," at least not typically, and thereforewould not be under the scrutiny of this law.
So what type of music when played loudly carries more than 50 feet? Any music could feasibly carry that distance, but the sound which carries best, in my experience, directly in front of or behind a car is bass.
Kennedy said that he didn't know what the demographics of the offenders would be. But if I were to speculate on the profile of the typical offender, I would guess it would be a young person, possibly 16-20 years old who listens to rap music. How many middle-aged women do you see bumping down the road listening to Ice Cube at full blast?
In fact, I think this is exactly what the ordinance is trying to curtail. The City Commission wants to regulate the sound of bass which vibrates other cars and other drivers. In fact, Kennedy said the complaints the police department had received were voiced against cars which caused other cars to vibrate.
Now let's consider the supposed reason that this must be a law — the safety of other motorists. The only time the musical selections of another driver can be sufficiently heard, or more appropriately, felt, are when you are sitting at a stoplight. I can't remember ever driving down the road and being so disturbed by the sound coming from another vehicle that I couldn't tell if a police car or ambulance was coming.
This law is not being passed because there was an accident involving a civilian and a patroller who collided because of the bass of a third party's stereo. I think it is being passed because there have been complaints from voters who do not want to be disturbed by the thunderous sounds of teen-age angst.
The ordinance is ridiculous and only goes to show how large the generational gap is between Baby Boomers and Generation Xers. I only wish we had a better way to deal with our disagreements than have an older generation pass laws that a younger generation must rebel against.

I support The University Daily Kansan's decision to run an advertisement from the Committee for the Open Debate of the Holocaust (CODOH). However, those of us who know the
Denying the Holocaust is dangerous for society
truth about the Holocaust must respond. That is our responsibility as members of a society that places such a high value on free speech.
To evaluate the claims of the CODOH, I went to the organization's Web site (http://www.codoh.com). Not only does the site propound upon this idea that gas chambers were never used, it puts forth the idea that Hitler wasn't planning the extinction of the Jewish people. The Final Solution was — according to the site

was — according to a phrase invented since his suicide. What were all the Nazi concentration camps for according to CODOHF? It was simply a misuse of power, a utilization of slave labor. Genocide did not occur during World War II.
I've stood in a gas chamber in Auschwitz. I've seen part of the cremates. I spoke with a man who, as a young man, was forced to do hard labor around the camps because he was Polish. His aunt, a nurse in the S.S. Hospitals, tried to call attention to the horrible "experiments" they were performing. She sent out X-rays from the hospitals, evidence of the Nazi crimes against humanity.
I've read the diary of one of the S.S. men in charge of Auschwitz. There is no question in my mind that this atrocity was indeed a planned genocide.
I'm confused about what the CODOH hopes an open debate will bring. Germany has been made stronger by admitting its responsibility for the Holocaust and in seeking to make some sort of
reparation. By accepting the guilt, and seeking forgiveness, rather than attempting to explain things away, they have made progress. Certainly, an "enlightened" understanding of the Holocaust — by CODOH standards — benefits neither those who died nor the survivors and their children. Nobody involved in the Holocaust profits from a debate on the "genocide question."
The only reason that I can come up with for the CODOH to "foster open debate on the Holocaust" is that perhaps, it wants to promote the idea that the Holocaust didn't happen. That's fine. Its members have the right in America to believe whatever they choose. But we have a responsibility to evaluate its claims and speak truth. We must understand the repercussions of denying that the Holocaust occurred. It is my fear that we will forget what genocide looks like and that we, as humanity, will fail again.
Hitler's Germany labeled the Jews, the handicapped and infirm, gays, the elderly, Gypsies, and people from all around Europe who worked to save lives, as obstacles to the perfect society
What did happen to the more than 6 million people who disappeared during World War II? Some died of disease and malnutrition in the concentration camps. Some were shot, and buried in mass graves in the woods. Some were shot and their bodies burned. Some were gassed in vans that fed the carbon monoxide back in. But the majority died in gas chambers, at each of several camps, both in Germany and Poland.
We must remember what genocide looks like.
We must remember what genocide looks like. Do not forget the horror you felt when you first learned what had happened in the concentration camps of Nazi Germany. Feel for the innocent people who die in our world because they are seen as an obstacle in the road to a better society.

Feedback
Hate-crime laws are equality laws
I wish to respond to feedback written by David Burress on Oct. 27, 1998. I appreciated Burress' letter, for it illuminated the reasons why hate crimes are different from other violent crimes. I do want to clear up something that is commonly misunderstood by advocates as well as opponents of hate crime legislation.
Hate crime legislation not only protects minority populations, who are the usual targets of hate-motivated crimes, they also protect majority populations. For example, several states, do, indeed, include "sexual orientation" in their hate crimes legislation (just as KU's university non-discrimination policy includes sexual orientation).
They do not specify gay, lesbian or bisexual. Sexual orientation is an inclusive classification which includes all sexual orientations — gay, lesbian, bisexual and heterosex.
ual. The reason why this legislation will be used to assist lesbians, gays and bisexuals more than heterosexuals is because lesbigay people are much more likely to be harmed by hate-motivated crimes by heterosexuals than vice versa. These are equal opportunity laws not special privileges, even though hatemotivated crimes are not.

Test run plows path for snowflakes to fall
Maintenance crews winterize trucks for 3-inch snows
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
Students may have mistaken a cold drizzle cascading down yesterday afternoon for little white flakes when they saw snow trucks cruising down city streets.
Yesterday's cold temperatures and dark, cloudy skies provided an appropriate atmosphere for the City of Lawrence's annual snow removal practice, but there was no snow for the city crews to plow.
Tom Orsulak, city street maintenance manager, said each year the public works department street maintenance crews practiced snow removal operations.
Street maintenance crews installed snow removal equipment on their trucks and drove their routes during the practice.
The city snow removal plan divides Lawrence into five areas and 13 specific snow routes. Each route follows a priority order from the most to the least traveled.
in the event of snow, arterial streets, such as Iowa and 23rd
streets, are plowed first, followed by collector streets, such as Tennessee and Kentucky streets, then areas around schools, residential streets and cul-de-sacs.
Orsulak said that snow plowing was not effective for snow less than three inches deep. Public works crews spread salt and sand along the same routes for less than three inches of snow.
Snow removal at the University of Kansas is handled by Facilities Operations.
Larry Rollins, assistant director of construction, said that crews had been looking at blades and spreaders to see if they were in good condition.
Rollins also said that Facilities Operations had filled its sand barn.
Although Facilities Operations did not have a dry run, Rollins said that Facilities Operations had assigned crews to certain routes and had targeted areas that were not plowed effectively last year.
He said that Facilities Operations would be prepared for a sudden snowfall because snow plows and sand spreaders could be attached to trucks in a couple of minutes.
The KU weather service forecast does not expect snow to fall in Lawrence through Saturday night.
Environs protest Snowbarger plans

Kansas River pollution big problem, group says
Members of KU Environs and other KU students protested the condition of the Kaw River yesterday and Monday morning.
The students waved signs and banners at Sixth and Massachusetts streets in opposition to the re-election of Rep. Vince Snowbarger.
Snowbarger, the Republican incumbent in the 3rd District, was defeated by Democrat Dennis Moore.
Snowharger recently received a 0 percent rating on the 1988 League of Conservation Voters Environmental Scorecard.
Matt Dunbar, president of KU Environs, said the
organization chose to take a stand because it wanted to urge voters to keep the environment in mind when voting. He said KU Environs did not think Snowbarker was concerned with the environment or the water quality in Lawrence.
"Snowbarger has done no good for the environment," Dunbar said. "He had his chance, and he blew it. It is obvious that he is not interested in environmental concerns."
Dunbar said seven members of KU Environs, along with a few other students, spent Monday morning attracting the attention of motorists. Five students associated with KU Environs protested yesterday morning, too.
Bridgett Chapin, Lawrence doctoral student, said she hoped the demonstration helped people decide to vote.
"This kind of thing helps people remember that it's election day," Chapin said. "We really wanted people to consider the environment when voting. This is our water supply we are talking about. The
Kaw River is already heavily polluted, and I don't want to see it trashed anymore."
Andrea Repinsky, olaten senior and member of KU Environs for four years, said the last time the organization got involved with elections was in 1966 when Bever Warster ran for county commissioner.
She said KU Environs supported Worster because she was concerned with environmental issues.
"Bew was very committed to not being controlled by developers." Repinksy said. "Snowbarger, on the other hand, has never been concerned with anything regarding the environment."
Ringo Witkowski, Wayne, Neb., sophomore, said he thought it was important that people were aware of the issues in the elections.
"I think it was important that people got out there and voted for the right people," Witkowski said. "For me, the key is that we focus on things that people already know about, like environmental concerns. We wanted them to keep these concerns in mind when voting."
StudEx to discuss conduct of Kaiser
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
The performance of Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, will be the topic of discussion at tonight's student executive committee meeting.
Last week Kaiser was given a letter at a Student Senate committee meeting that detailed problems six members of StudEx had with his job performance. StudEx is a 13-member standing committee that approves the agenda of each Senate meeting.
The letter said Kaiser was not serving his office hours, had disregarded what StudEx said and raised general leadership questions.
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator and one who signed the letter of complaint, said he hoped the problems would be worked out at the StudEx meeting.
Kaiser said he thought there were more important things for StudEx to address with its meeting time.
He said tonight's meeting would give him a chance to show some of the allegations are a misperception.
Kaiser said he figured out on
paper the amount of hours he spends on Senate activities each week.
"I put in at least 25 to 30 hours a week, which is more than I'm supposed to," he said. "I get paid for 20 hours a week, but every paid senate member ends up working more hours than they get paid for."
Partha Mazundar, graduate senator and one who signed the letter of complaint, said another problem was he and others thought Kaiser had been biased while running Senate meetings.
"His main job is to run Senate meetings," he said. "It says in 'Robert's Rules of Order,' the chair is supposed to be above everything."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said students were the ones really losing.
"This slows us all down with people playing politics," he said. "We were elected to serve the students, not to argue about petty issues."
Kaiser gets paid $5,592 a year for his job as vice president. He also is allowed to purchase a blue parking permit.
"The pay comes out to 20 hours a week at minimum wage." Yoder said. "But a lot of times, we put in much more than 20 hours a week."
Former chancellor's wife dies, remembered kindly
By Jason Pearce
Kansas staff writer
University faculty members remember the wife of a former chancellor as a warm and energetic person dedicated to the arts.
Barbara Benton Wescoe, who was the wife of Chancellor Clarke Wescoe, died Monday in New London, Minn. She was 75.
Marilyn Stokstad, professor of art history, who worked with Wescoe in the 1960s at the Spencer Museum of Art and had remained good friends with her, said she was a delightful woman full of energy and good will.
"She always worked for the good of the University," Stokstad said. "She took her role as the wife of the chancellor as a full-time job."
Stokstad said Wescoe played an important role in the museum's development.
"She was good at doing things that she spotted as need help, and the museum was one of those," she said.
Wescoe was responsible for moving Spencer Museum from a volunteer-based institution to one with a professional staff, she said.
Stokstad was Wescoe also founded the gallery guild for the museum, which raised contributions for purchasing new works of
art. This later became the Friends of Art Museum, and it has about 800 members.
One of the fund-raisers that Wesco began, a formal ballroom dance, also helped to develop the museum.
Wescoe also was involved in the University Women's Club, and she received the Fred Ellsworth medallion for University service in 1986.
Services will be held Nov. 14 at Green Lake Bible Camp Chapel in Spicer, Minn., where the Wescos made their retirement home.
Raymond Nichols, a former chancellor who succeeded Clarke Wescoe, said he remembered Barbara Wescoe as an artistic person who gave the University many gifts.
"The Wesces were very warm and very friendly people," Nichols said. "They were quite different people and were always involved in entertainment."
Andrea Norris, director of the Spencer Museum, said the Wescens' work continued to be a large presence at the museum.
She said that the museum was home to several sculptures and paintings that were contributed by the Wescoes, especially in the Asian gallery.

Failed levee forces thousands to flee
The Associated Press
ARKANSAS CITY - A levee failed yesterday under the pressure of a record flood crest on the Arkansas River and forced at least 2,000 people to flee their homes.
Flood crests on both the Arkansas and Walnut rivers passed through the city of 12,000 people early yesterday, the Arkansas on the west side and the Walnut on the east.
Flooding caused by as much as 8 inches of rain in some areas had already forced hundreds of people from their homes in southern Kansas and northern Oklahoma and caused millions of dollars in damage.
One person was missing yesterday at Arkansas City and one had died in Oklahoma.
The Arkansas River crested at a record 12 feet above flood stage at Arkansas City yesterday, and water flowed into the south side of town, rising 3 to 4 feet deep in some houses. The Walnut crested at just over 14 feet above flood stage.
The water broke a levee protecting the town from the Arkansas River and water also poured into the east side of town.
"We have reason to believe that we may have

water as high as 10 feet inside some homes there before the event is concluded," said Randy Duncan of the Cowley County Civil Defense office. "Even though the river is going down, the levee is failing."
The Election Day flood had forced the city to
move at least one polling place, The Arkansas City Traveler reported. Hours ahead of the crest, the Arkansas had already submerged restaurants and businesses outside town late Monday.
Upstream on the Walnut River, the nearby town of Winfield also had to move one of its polling places after the river crested there yesterday.
On monday, an undetermined number of rural homes near Winfield were flooded and firefighters had to rescue six people stranded at one house. Treetops were barely visible in parts of the city.
Many homes in Augusta were also damaged. Jay Hall's home was among the ones that flooded. He said that community members were rallying together during this natural disaster.
Hall said a lot of neighbors will be crying on each other's shoulders when they can finally get into their homes in a day or two.
"A lot of us didn't know each other until now," said Hall, who is considering a new job in Denver. "Considering we lost everything, it makes it really easy to relocate."
Nearly 400 families stayed in shelters for a sec ond night Monday.
Israel holds out for arrests, delays peace agreement
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Israel said yesterday that it will not carry out the land-for-security peace agreement until it gets assurances that the Palestinian Authority will arrest 30 Palestinian fugitives, raising questions about whether the accord could be implemented.
The Palestinians said the United States was satisfied with their anti-terror plan and accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of seizing a pretext to avoid handing over West Bank land.
The peace accord, signed Oct. 23 in Maryland, was to have taken effect Monday but was delayed at the request of Netanyahu. Under the agreement, the first installation of an Israeli troop pullback from 13 percent of the West Bank is due on Nov. 16.
U. senvoy Dennis Ross was to arrive tomorrow to oversee implementation of the program that is to be carried out over 12 weeks. Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said it was up to the Americans to break the latest impasse.
"Netanyahu wants to break the timeline," Erekat told The Associated Press. He said the United States must interfere.

The new recriminations made it clear that any good will generated by the peace accord has already evaporated. With suspi-

ions running high, the United States will likely have to step in as referee repeatedly in the coming weeks.
The latest crisis began yesterday morning, three hours before the Israeli Cabinet was to start a two-day debate on the peace agreement. Ratification had been expected today.
Netanyahu announced he would not convene the ministers because the Palestinians have not submitted a complete blueprint for fighting terrorism to the Americans, as promised.
Netanyahu would not say what information was missing, but Defense Minister Yitzhak Mordechal later said Israel was holding out for a list of 30 wanted Palestinians the Palestinian Authority has promised to arrest as part of the peace agreement.
Israel also wants a timetable for the arrests, Mordechal said.
Israel has said it cannot begin implementing the agreement until it has been approved by the Cabinet and by parliament, which is to vote on the accord Nov. 12.
The United States appeared to side with the Palestinians. James Rubin, the State Department spokesman, said Monday that "the necessary plans were provided on time."
Mohammed Dahlan, the Palestinian security chief in the Gaza Strip, said he discussed the antiterror plan with Israeli security officials who also considered it sufficient.
Cabinet approval is not assured. At least six of 18 ministers are undecided and three are opposed to the plan.
Central American lives lost in hurricane's flood
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — With flood waters receding and communications improving, Central Americans struggled today to reach thousands cut off by Hurricane Mitch. As the official death count surged, authorities feared a lack of aid could push the number of dead well past the estimated 7,000.
The greatest losses were reported in Honduras, where an estimated 5,000 people died and 600,000 — 10 percent of the population were forced to flee their homes after last week's storm. Countless more lacked clean water, food and medicine.
Most of the deaths in Nicaragua occurred
when the crater lake of the Casitas Volcano collapsed, sending a wall of mud and debris onto several villages below.
The Associated Press
Preliminary figures from the Nicaraguan president's office said 1,338 people died in the crater lake mudslide. However, Felicita Zeledon, mayor of Posoltega, the largest city near the volcano, said yesterday workers have recovered 1,950 bodies. The differing figures could not immediately be reconciled.
Nicaragua reported 500 people killed elsewhere in the country. In El Salvador, 222 people were reported killed and 50,000 were homeless. Guatemala reported 157 storm-related deaths.
The European Union today approved $7.7
million in aid; the United States promised $3.5 million in emergency assistance and Canada pledged $1 million.
President Carlos Flores Facusse said, "The floods and landslides erased from the map many villages and households as well as whole neighborhoods of cities.
Many parts of Honduras remained cut off almost a week after Mitch barreled into the Bay Island of Guanaja dropping up to 25 inches of rain in a six-hour period, before dissinating Monday in southern Mexico.
U. S. military air flights began arriving Monday in Honduras and U.S. Blackhawk helicopters started distributing aid today in neighboring Nicaragua.
Details demanded of Yeltsin's health
Russian president denies alcoholism
The Associated Press
Yeltsin, who has been plagued by health problems in recent years, is resting at a Black Sea resort. Alides
MOSCOW — Hard-liners in Russia's parliament demanded details of Boris Yeltsih's health, while the recuperating president held private talks yesterday with his defense minister in southern Russia.
PETER S. KEWELY
Yeltsin: Recently has been plagued with health problems.
The lower house of Russia's parliament will consider a bill tomorrow that would require Yeltsin to
undergo a medical checkup. If the bill is approved, presidential doctors would have to release their conclusions following an exam.
Communist Party leader Gennady Zvyosanij invoked the law
But the measure's chances are slim. To become law, the bill would have to be approved by Yeltsin himself, who is almost certain to veto it.
should be approved.
"He is an absolutely irresponsible person and is incapable of running the country," he said. "We are governed by an unsober person. In effect, the president has become a full-blown alcoholic."
Communists and other Yeltsin enemies have long accused the president of drinking heavily, a charge the president has denied.
Yeltsin's latest illness has brought new calls for his resignation by his Communist foes. He insists he has no serious illness and said he would serve out his term.
Yeltsin met with Defense Minister Igor Sergeyev yesterday to discuss military reform and building housing for retired officers. Russian television showed brief footage of a smiling Yeltsin, looking tired but displaying no visible signs of illness.
One of Yeltsin's biggest headaches has been Russia's severe financial troubles. Among other things, the ailing economy has scared away foreign investors, driven down stock prices and prompted the government to repeatedly postpone the sale of the natural gas monopoly Gazprom, the world's largest gas company, in hopes of getting a better price.
However, the Interfax news agency reported yesterday that the Cabinet has given the government until the end of the month to prepare an auction of up to 5 percent of Gazprom, one of the government's most valuable assets.
The Associated Press
Boeing union wants own as president
SEATTLE — Once again the "Fighting Machinists" in the biggest union at the Boeing Co. are fighting with each other, this time about a proposed change on who can run for president.
About 20,000 filers are being distributed at Boeing plants in Washington state amid preparations for a vote on the proposed changes in the bylaws of District Lodge 751 of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, which represents more than 39,000 riveters, painters and other production workers in the state.
The change would make only the union's 15 business representatives eligible to run for president and set the election for May.
At present, elections for union office are in October, and the 37 members of the union's district council are eligible to run for president.
The next round of voting is at local lodge meetings, starting today and running through Nov. 12.
The chief opponent of the changes is David Clay of Everett, a district council member who came within 174 votes of unseating District 751 president Bill Johnson in January 1997.
Backers of the by-law change said that a spring election would save money and that limiting eligibility to business agents would ensure leadership by those with "extensive contract knowledge and experience working with the company."
Clay and other critics said it would be a bad move to shift eligibility from council members who work on the shop floor to union employees who are paid by the international union rather than the district lodge.
They also said union members have not gotten enough information on the proposals and might not know about the vote.

RESULTS
Republicans labor to maintain majorities
Bush sons win; D'Amato falls in the Senate
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - Republicans struggled to solidify their congressional majorities yesterday in midterm elections held in the
snadow of impeachment proceedings against President Clinton. Democrats claimed the single biggest prize of the night when Gray Davis was elected governor of California.
The GOP held control of the Senate even as Republican incumbents Alfonse D'Amato, New York, and Lauch Faircloth, North Carolina, fell to their challengers. In Illinois, Democratic Sen. Carol Moseley
Braun lost to her challenger.
incumbents of both parties fared well in House races, suggesting no major shift of seats toward either party — a disappointment for Republicans whose leaders forecasted significant gains.
Democrats celebrated statehouse victories, ousting a pair of Southern governors and electing a governor in Iowa for the first time since 1966.
In a victory with implications
for the 2000 presidential race,
GOP Gov. George W. Bush won
a Texas-sized re-election. His
brother, Jeb, added the Florida
statehouse to the Republican
column. And Republicans held
big-state governorships in Illinois,
Ohio, Michigan and New York.
Democrats countered in South Carolina, where Jim Hodges toppled first-term Gov. David Beasley, the chairman of the Republican Governors' Associac-
tion. Alabama Republican Gov.
Fob James was defeated as well.
Four James was desciended to the Speaker Newt Gingrich and Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott said that when all the seats were decided, Republicans would pad their majorities in both the House and Senate.
Some Republicans were less than enthusiastic about the party's showing, possibly forecasting problems for the incumbent leadership when the GOP holds caucus elections later this
month.
"I a bit saddened by our failures throughout the country." said Sen. John McCain of Arizona — himself a landslide winner.
The trend in House races was overwhelmingly favorable to incumbents in both parties. With nearly 300 of the House's 435 races settled, only one Republican Vince Snowbarger of Kansas — was denied a new term.
Missouri voters in favor of riverboat casinos
Early results show 'boats in moats' to stay afloat
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — With a third of the votes counted, a majority of Missouri voters appeared to support legalizing riverboat casinos in artificial moats.
Preliminary numbers showed 55 percent voting in favor of Amendment 9, which would legalize 10 of the state's 15 casinos that float in
man-made basins. The early numbers were based on 32 percent of votes counted by the Secretary of State's office.
Final results were not available.
Final results were "It is early, but things look good," said Don Poston, spokesman for pro-gambling group Missourians for Fairness and Jobs. "We've got to build up a big lead in the city before the rural numbers hit."
The so-called "boats in moats" would continue offering lucrative slot machines if the measure passed.
passed
If rejected, owners of those boats would face the costly decision of moving the casinos onto the river or, more realistically, shutting them
down. Gambling opponents say this election could be the final ehance at confining an industry that corrupts society and the political process.
During the campaign, the gambling industry outspent gambling opponents almost ten-to-one, according to the state Ethics Commission.
At issue is a 1997 Supreme Court decision that said the Missouri Constitution did not allow boats in moats to offer slot machines.
The decision overturned a lower court's ruling and was based on a lawsuit filed by Rep. Todd Akin, R-St. Louis. The case said voters did not envision land-based casinos resting in lagoons when they approved riverboat gambling in 1992
Attorney general goes back to Stovall
KANSAS RACES
Attorney General Carla Stovall raced away from Democrat Dan Lykins. With 85 percent of the vote tabulated, she had 75 percent of the vote to Lykins' 25.
Stovall, 41, succeeded Republican Bob Stephan as attorney general in January 1995. She is a former Crawford County attorney and Kansas Parole Board member. Lykins, 52, is a Topeka lawyer in private practice who filed within minutes of the filing deadline in June when Democrats had no candidate other than Fred Phelps Jr., of Topeka, son of the anti-gay activist.
Secretary of state remains unchanged
Secretary of State Ron Thomburgh had a 64-28 percentage-point lead against Don Rezac with 85 percent of the votes counted. Two minor party candidates got the rest.
Thomburgh, 35, is a former Washu-um University basketball player
who succeeded Bill Graves as secretary of state four years ago when Graves ran for governor.
Rezac, 57, served 12 years in the Kansas House of Representatives until losing a race for re-election in 1994.
Shallenburger victory hopeful at early count
Tim Shallenburger had a 62-38 percentage-point lead with 85 percent of the vote counted in the race for state treasurer.
Shallenburger, Republican speaker
of the Kansas House for the past four years, was thought to have an edge against Democrat Rita Cline of Topeka, the Shawnee County treasurer, because of a large GOP majority.
Waiting patiently
Shallenburger and Cline were biding to succeed Clyde Graeber of Leavenworth, who was appointed by Graves last spring to fill out the final months of the term of Democrat Sally Thompson, who resigned to accept a position with the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington.

ELECTION RESULTS
Ballard re-election uncontested
ay Augustus Anthony Piazza
Konson staff writer
On a normal election night, Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor for student affairs, might have been nervous, but last night she waited calmly while final votes were tallied.
Ballard ran uncontested in her bid for re-election for a fourth term as the 44th State representative.
Ballard was first elected in 1992 and re-elected in both 1994 and 1996.
Although Ballard ran uncontested, she said she worked hard at earning the respect of constituents.
Although Ballard was not nervous about her race, she watched the votes closely because she wanted to see the results of the USD 497 school question.
both 1950 and 1980.
"I'm just grateful that maybe all the hard work that I have done has paid off and people are satisfied." Ballard said.
The question was about a $16.6 million bond proposal that would be used for a new elementary school in Lawrence, a new nine-wing classroom wing at Prairie Park school, renovations and classroom additions to Pickney school and improvements to 11 other Lawrence schools including Central, South and West Junior High schools.
I'll just go with the picture.
The people are sitting in a living room, watching a television. They appear to be engaged and focused on the screen. The room has a cozy atmosphere with plants and decorative items visible in the background.
The bond proposal passed with an unofficial vote count of 14,666 to 5,572.
"I'm very delighted. We really need this because Lawrence schools are so crowded," Ballard said.
She said that because Lawrence was growing so much, it was important to have a new school to keep a good quality of education in Lawrence.
Some KU student groups also paid close attention to the polls.
The KU Young Democrats convened at a house at 1527 Massachusetts St. to watch the results.

"We are all excited just to be here," said Phil Stevenson, president of the Young Democrats.
"We all worked so hard to get to this point," he said. "Even if the results are not what we want, we can celebrate what we have done to get to where we are now."
Brownback defeats Feleciano
Spending, conservative support lead to first full term in Senate

voters and 61 percent of moderates.
TOPEKA, — With the odds in his favor from the start. U.S. Sen. Sam Brownback won yesterday's general election, gaining his first full, six-year term.
The Republican faced a nominal challenge from Democratic state Sen. Paul Feleciano of Wichita, whose campaign faltered out of the starting gate from lack of contributions.
An exit poll, based on interviews with voters as they left precincts across the state, said Brownback picked up more than enough support to win. The poll was conducted by Voter News Service for The Associated Press and five television outlets.
The exit poll showed that Brownback continued the GOP's dominance of the seat, getting 86 percent of conservative
Brownback's race was called by the AP at 7:01 p.m., one minute after polls closed in all but five far western counties on the Colorado border, which are on mountain time.

He said his long-term priorities were simplifying the tax code and preserving social security.
"The immediate issues will be dealing
with agriculture, just because we have such a difficult problem here in the near term," he said.
he said.
Feleciano's and Brownback's latest campaign-finance reports showed Brownback received $1.94 million, spent $1.3 million and had $561,000 on hand as of mid-October. Feleciano raised $30,530, spend $27,976 and had $2,552 on hand.
When Brownback wasn't in Washington, he was back in Kansas crisscrossing the state in search of votes. He did one statewide bus tour in August with 27 stops and a second last week with 24 stops.
Feleciano did as much canpaigning as he could on his limited budget, trying to get his name and face known to as many voters as possible in a state where Republicans control the political agenda on the state and federal levels.
The senior state senator with 26 years in the Legislature, Feleciano faced an uphill battle from the start and had history against him — the last Kansas Democrat in the U.S. Senate was in the 1930s. He is in the middle of his four-year state Senate term.
Ryun: 'message' helped him to victory
The Associated Press
In northeastern Kansas' 2nd District, Rep. Kim Ryun — a former Olympic mile runner — won a second term by defeating Topeka advertising professional Jim Clark. With 89 percent of precincts reporting, Ryun led Clark 61 percent to 39 percent.
"I think people realized I had the right message," Ryan said. "I'm surprised (Clark) didn't mount a stronger campaign, but I think the more people heard him they concluded he had the wrong message. People aren't ready to totally overhaul our health care system, for example. It was a good indication of the lack of general support for his ideas."
Democratic challenger Dennis Moore unseated Republican incumbent Rep. Vince Snowbear in Kansas' 3rd District on yesterday, becoming the first Democrat to represent the northeast Kansas district in 40 years.
Ryun's track accomplishments, which included a standout career at the University of Kansas, gave him an edge in name recognition for 2nd District voters. But Clark said athletic success was no basis for election to Congress.
With 94 percent of precincts reporting in the largely suburban district, Moore led Snowbarger 52 percent to 48 percent. Snowbarger was among three House members from Kansas who were trying for a second term.
percent of precincts reporting. Craig Newland of the U.S. Taxpayers party had 3 percent.
Tiahart said the Democrats' focus on the 3rd District race might have helped him have an easter time against Lawing.
In the 4th District of southeastern Kansas, Rep. Todd Tiahrt defeated former Kansas House member Jim Lawing. Tiahrt led 58 percent to 39 percent with 86
Rep. Jerry Moran won handily in the 1st District, which
147 District covers western and much of northern Kansas. With 75 percent of precincts reporting, he had 80 percent of the vote to 20 percent for Moscow attorney Jim Phillips.
Ryan: Gained at least 61 percent of the vote.
Democrat wins place on County Commission
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Democrat Charles Jones won the 1st District race for County Commissioner last night.
Jones unofficially beat his opponent,
Republican Brian Kubota, by a vote of
4.333 to 4.012.
Neither man was the incumbent. County Commissioner Mark Buhler did not run for re-election this year.
"It didn't seem like there were any major issues defining the campaigns," said John Nalbandian, professor of public administration and government.
The main issue that separated the candidates was their goal for growth in Douglas County.
Kubota told the Kansan during the campaign that he wanted to continue the growth that this area had experienced. He also wanted to help the commission plan better for the growth.
Jones told the Kansan during the campaign that the county should encourage investment in the center of the city rather than at the perimeter. He said the commission had encouraged growth in new areas by subsidizing new infrastructure and older parts of town had suffered.
Jones was at the Douglas County Courthouse, 1100 Massachusetts St., awaiting the results while Kubota was at Johnny's Tavern. 410 N. Second St.
Jones said he was happy with the way the campaign had gone. Both candidates kept their campaigns positive, he said.
"I think that we defined our message and stayed on our message," he said of his own campaign.

Track star runs with legendary past racers
By Cal Butchor Special to the Kansan
John Lawson has both a place of honor and a place of fear on the cross country course at Rim Rock Farm, the Kansas home course and the site of the 1998 NCAA Divisions I and II Cross Championships.
As the runners approach the final turn before the finish line, Lawson's silhouette graces the skyline and appears to join the race. But it is also the grueling "John Lawson Hill" that awaits runners coming out of the Oak Holler covered bridge.
Coach Bob Timmons has installed seven life-sized silhouettes of Lawson and other Kansas greats around the
course. Timmons' first year coaching at Kansas was Lawson's last, and it brought both a national championship.
Lawson's final year at KU was near-perfect. In the fall, he finished regular cross country season without a loss, then captured both the Big Eight Conference Title, and the
1
NCAA National Championship to complete an undefeated season.
"John was a quiet leader," said Schwartz. "You never really got a sense of his intensity and competitiveness. He had a lot of pride. We all did. We felt we had a lot to live up to."
During the indoor track and field season, Lawson and current Kansas coach Gary Schwartz were co-captains of the 1986 NCAA Indoor National Championship team.
Lawson won indoor conference championships in both the mile (404.8) and the two-mile (90.85) and placed second at nationals in the two-mile.
Outdoors, Lawson placed second in the three-mile run at the national meet for the second consecutive year. His 1965 mark of 14:09.6 was a Big Eight Conference record.
For the two co-captains, it was quite a time to be a Jayhawk. Kansas was in the midst of an outdoor conference winning streak that saw 22 team titles in 25 years. The NCAA held the first indoor national meet in 1965 and KU would win three of the first six team championships. Other teams were very aware of the KU traditions and feared competing against the Jayhawks.
Schwartz said that it was a good feeling to come into a meet situation and overhear a competitor say, "Oh no! They're here." He added that the great Kansas tradition did put some extra pressure on the team to perform well.
Lawson especially had to live up to the success of legends like Glenn Cunningham and Wes Santee. He was also running at the same time former Jayhawk Billy Mills was celebrating his Olympic glory. The pressure to succeed was enormous, but didn't faze him.
In 1964, Lawson set the tone for his Kansas career by winning the Big Eight Indoor Championship in the twomile with a time of 9:14.4. It was the first time he had ever competed in that event as a varsity athlete.
He went on to win a total of five conference championships, one individual national championship, and was a member of one team championship.
Lawson, who grew up in Overland Park and attended Wvandotte High School, is a member of the University of Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame and will be attending the KU Track and Cross Country Reunion to be held November 21-23, in conjunction with the NCAA National Championships.

Kansas women's basketball reloads for upcoming season
All starters to return with five newcomers
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Game day is here for the Kansas women's basketball team.
The Jayhawks will take on Myjava Slovakia Republic in an exhibition game at 7 tonight in Allen Field House, marking the beginning of one of the most highly anticipated seasons in the program's history. Kansas returns all five starters from last season, which ended with a 23-9 record and a trip to the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.
"Everybody's come back with a new confidence," said sophomore Jaclyn Johnson. "We're saying 'Hey, we went that far last year when nobody expected it, now we can go even farther.'"
Myjiva lost 91-71 to Washburn on Monday night in the first of 10 exhibition games the team will play by Nov. 14.
The game won't count toward
Kansas' record because the game is an exhibition.
"It's a game so we can get a feel for each other," Johnson said. "It's just a test. It doesn't really mean anything."
It does give the team a chance to play live com-
play five competition.
"It just helps us to play different players." coach Marian Washington said. "We've been play ing against each other for so long. It'll be good to go against some d i f e r e n t faces."
The game also will give Washington an idea of how the team is grasping the new motion offense installed this season. Washington hopes the offense will give her

Soccer coach resigns
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas soccer coach Dan Magner resigned yesterday afternoon, two days after a 1-0 loss at Wyoming that ended his second season as coach.
"I've enjoyed my association with the University of Kansas and working with the student athletes," he said. "I have decided that it would be in my best interest to pursue other opportunities in coaching."
None of the players were available for comment.
Amy Perko, associate athletics direc
tor, said a search committee, which in the past has been composed of athletics administrators, coaches and a member of the University of Kansas Athletic Corporation, would be formed soon to find another coach.
("Assistant coaches) Kevin Blokker and Ellen Obleman will remain on the staff," Perko said. "We will

meet with them tomorrow to determine responsibilities to be done in the interim period, and they will continue to work with the student athletes."
Magner was hired as the second coach in Kansas soccer history on March 1, 1997, after serving as the assistant women's soccer coach at Wake Forest. He also served as women's soccer coach at Lafayette College in Pennsylvania for three years and Wheaton College for two years.
In his two seasons at Kansas, Magner had a 12-25-2 record.
In his coaching debut, he won 1-0 at Illinois State on August 29, 1997. He proceeded to lead the Jayhawks to a 7-12-1 overall record and 2-8 in the Big 12 Conference.
His second season started out with back-to-back losses at Florida International and Miami in Florida. He guided Kansas to wins in five of its next seven games, including a 1-0 upset win against Missouri.
But a 5-0 thrashing of Western Illinois on September 27, which raised the Jayhawks record to 5-4, would be his final victory as Kansas coach.
Kansas scored two goals in its final nine games, going 0-8-1 in that stretch. It finished 5-13-1 overall and 1-8-1 in the Big 12.
"I appreciate all the good things that Dan did as soccer coach here," said Bob Frederick, athletics director. "I wish him the best of luck."
Wegner's concussions knock Alexander into starting position
Bv Jedi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Jay Alexander finally has the starting quarterback position, but not necessarily in the way he originally had honed.
EU
Because the original starting quarterback, Zac Wegner, has had two concussions in as many weeks. Alexander has
taken the position for the final three weeks of the season.
He would have preferred to earn the position outright rather than have Wegner injured.
"The ideal way was to outright beat him out," Alexander said. "You don't want to see him get him and get the job like that. I'm there, though, so I have to step and take the role of starting quarterback."
Alexander replaced Wegner during the Colorado and Kansas State games. He led the Jayhawks to a 33-17 victory against Colorado and suffered a 54-6 shellacking by the Kansas State Wildcats a week later.
Alexander has completed 21 of 39 passes for the season and has thrown three interceptions, two of those against Kansas State. He also has 230 yards total offense and one touchdown pass.

"Right out of high school I was hoping to go to a D-I school and start somewhere," Alexander said. "But I really never thought that two years from then I'd be where I'm at."
He never imagined two years ago that he would be in this position.
Having Alexander in the starting position leaves the Kansas football team with one dilemma — what to do if he goes down, too.

Today's Birthday (Nov. 4).
You may feel stopped this year, but that is just a test. It is to see how much you can persevere. By working with the person who is giving you the most trouble, you will make the greatest gains. You can also build a foundation that will support you for years to come.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
The work is available if you are willing to do it. This opportunity could make financial security possible. The price is your full enthusiasm as well as your full belief in yourself. You want to be successful? Well, you can. Let the others know you will do what it takes.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is an 8.
You have got a tough choice to make today. You need to do what is best for your home and for the plans you have made. Money is a consideration too, of course, but not as important as your quality of living. You have permission to spend a little more so you can get something really nice.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You have a way of weaving in and around the status quo and shaking things up a bit. Your ideas are a little radical and a little daring, but basically you are after the same objective as everybody else. Make sure they listen to what you say and they will make sure you get what you need.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is an 8.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is an 8.
The holiday season is approaching, but somebody you know may have to go off in another direction once the family parties get started. You know who this is. Get together this weekend before the other festivities set in. Start with a call today, just to say hello and establish a new connection
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
You could get the funding you need through the help of an older person. The problem is getting it routed into your own pocket so you can spend it on something you already said you would buy. It is a little nerve-wracking, but do not worry.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is an 8.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): today is an 8.
Do not worry about a move you are planning. Your common sense is excellent right now, and you also have a good scan on what is coming up. You will not only increase your own security, but you will make your loved ones safer, too.

Libra (sep. 23-05. 29) Tues. 10:30
Looks like a friend is under a bit of pressure, running into obstacles every time he or she turns around. You can help this situation, if only by providing a shoulder to cry on. You can see everything a little more objectively, since you are not under the same amount of pressure.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
The person you find most irritating today is also your most valuable coach. Try not to overpower one who is attempting to steer you in the right direction, otherwise you could get in trouble. Fortunately, your friends will tip you off before that happens, if you are wise enough to listen.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Your thoughts are on the horizon, but your body is stuck here, doing some job you wish you could delegate. That is OK. You can actually make this voyage happen. Where would you like to go? Tachit in the spring? Why not? Get started planning now. This is an excellent day to make decisions.

If you concentrate on a goal you want to accomplish, the petty squabbles today will not be distracting. Counsel your sweetheart to do the same. Someone who is very close to you could get embroiled in a controversy. If you can do something about it by getting involved, go ahead
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You are going to get farther working with a partner today than you would on your own. You can figure out a way to convince your opponents that your idea has merit. That is where the partnership idea comes in. So, do not be the Lone Ranger. Get somebody else on your side.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
You want to be going places, doing things, having adventures, especially if you are in love. Romance is beckoning right now, and it is hard to keep your mind on anything else. There is good news. This weekend is going to be magnificent for a romantic excursion.
Start planning one now, even if you can not go quite yet.

Umpire great decides to retire from majors
WATERLOO, Iowa — Don Dinkinger,
whose call at first base helped
the 1985 World Series, is retiring as
a major league umpire.
An ailing right knee has forced Denkinger to leave after nearly 40 seasons. His retirement takes effect Dec. 31, but he will stay involved in the game as a supervisor and an evaluator of major and minor-league umpires
"I'll be doing some teaching, some scouting, some evaluating," Denkinger, 62, said. "I'll be looking for new prospects and working with some umpires the American League already has an option on."
In the sixth game of the 1985 World Series between Kansas City and St. Louis, Denkinger called the Royals' Jorge Ortea on a close play at first. The call helped Kansas City win that game to tie the Series 3-3 and the Royals went on to win Game No. 7, when Denkinger worked the plate and ejected Cardinals manager Whitey Her

Oilers' first head coach dies with career record
HOUSTON — Lou Rymuk, the first head coach of the Houston Oilers who still holds the 39-year-old franchise's best career record, has died. He was 78.
Rymuk's success didn't protect him for long. Rymuk was fired after the Oliers lost three of their first five games in 1961.
"Lou will always be an important part of our history," said Bud Adams, the Oliers' founder who hired and fired Rymkus.
The son of a coal miner, Rymkus grew up in Chicago and was a star offensive tackle at Notre Dame. He played one NFL season with Washington before World War II, then played for the Cleveland Browns after serving as a Marine.
M
"Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family."
He played six seasons for the Browns, playing on both sides of the ball. Coach Paul Brown once called him the "best pass protector I've ever seen." Rymkus earned a Super Bowl ring in 1971 when he coached the Baltimore Colts' offensive line to victory against the Dallas Cowboys.
Rymkus died Saturday after a lengthy illness. His funeral is today in San Felipe, Texas.
TOKYO — Regia Torres Herrera scored eight points yesterday as Cuba, the world and Olympic champion, opened defense of its women's world volleyball title with a 15-7, 15-8, 15-10 victory against the United States.

Another new feature in the tournament was the use of "ilbero" players, who are barred from an attacking role but can be freely substituted as receivers. They wear different color uniforms than their teammates.
The Cubans wore the new look, one piece outfits resembling gymnastic tights. Peru were similar uniforms in its 15-8, 15-6, 15-3 loss to Japan.
The order also reportedly alters a range of national security considerations, although the directive's internal workings are secret, The Salt Lake Tribune said.
The directive orders the Secret Service to take an active role in planning security for major national events, whether presidents, vice presidents, ex-presidents or their families attend.
Secret Service may get active role in Olympics
The FBI and the Secret Service are preparing a memorandum of understanding that clarifies the division of labor between the two.
SALT LAKE CITY — A classified executive order signed by President Clinton during the summer purportedly gives the Secret Service some role in security for the 2002 Winter Olympics.
The decision followed a controversy that anose when two Croatia Zagreb players refused to undergo post match tests last weekend.
ZAGREB, Croatia — Mandatory drug tests will be introduced in the Crotan soccer league starting next week, the national federation said yesterday.
Croatian soccer league to begin drug testing
The tests were ordered by Ante Vrdoljak, head of Croatia's Olympic Committee.
But Zlatko Canjuga, executive director of Zagreb, said, "The aim was not to avoid the doping control, but the introduction of doping control should be prepared, it takes some time."
Canjuga, a high-ranking member of President Franjo Tudiman's ruling party, accused Vrdoljak of trying to push his way into soccer.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Preseason Basketball

Texas basketball gets a fresh start
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansas sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
Change is in the air in Austin, Texas. While most of the Longhorn fans are watching running back Ricky Williams and the Heisman race, the Texas men's basketball team, under new head coach Rick Barnes, has been working to turn around a team that ended last year in disarray.
Last season, the Longhorns, coached by Tom Penders, who's coached the most wins in school history, drastically underachieved. Texas compiled a 6-10 conference record and a 14-17 overall mark.
Barnes came to Austin following Penders' controversial resignation. The last four years at Clemson, Barnes' Tigers played well in arguably the toughest conference in the nation, the Atlantic Coast Conference, earning an NIT appearance his first year and played in the NCAA tournament the last three years.
despite the disappointing season a year ago, the Longhorns return four starters, including two preseason Big 12 selections, forward Kris Clack and center Chris Mihm.
Clack is not sure what to expect from Barnes and the rest of his team this year.
"It's gonna be different; I expect us to do a lot of different things," he said. "We're still gonna win, but in a different way."
Barnes' coaching style is night and day compared to Penders' run-n-gun, minimal defense game plan. The previous teams that Barnes coached at Providence and Clemson have been characterized as tough, aggressive defensively and hard working. Conditioning has been a key focus for the new Texas staff since last spring, partly because the Longhorns only have eight eligible scholarship

players available to compete this season. Clack highlights the group as he gear up for his senior season in his home town. He was selected to the Big 12 all-defensive team the last two seasons, and he heads
into his senior year, looking to increase his scoring from last year's team high 17.3 points per game.
Mihm, who turned a lot of heads last year as a freshman, looks to build on his successful rookie season. In the middle, he was first on the team in rebounding with eight a game, first on the team with 2.9 blocked shots per game, and he was third on the team in scoring, averaging 12.4 points per game.
The Longhorns also return three-year starter DeJuan "Chico" Vasquez, at point guard. Vasquez and fellow Austinite Clack have both started in 77 career games. Last season, Vasquez's scoring improved to 7.5 points per game, and he ranks 10th on the all-time Texas shot-block list.
The fourth starter to return is power forward Nnadubem "Gabe" Muoneke. He was fourth on the team in scoring with 10.4 points per game and third on the team with 5.7 rebounds a game.
The Longhorns are going to have to find added scoring to replace the 13.3 points per game from Luke Axtell, who transferred to Kansas.
Longhorns seek to improve on last season
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
You'll have to excuse Texas women's basketball coach Jody Conradt if she looked a little lost this summer.
"It's been a long off season," she said.
"It's been a long off season," she said. The Longhorns finished 12-15 and were knocked out in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament, a far cry from the postseason success that has become routine in Austin.
"Words can't even touch it," said senior Kim Lummus. "I couldn't deal with it. There were a lot of low points."
The team's win total tied for the lowest in school history, and its nine conference losses were an all-time high.
you wake up the next morning physically sick, and you wonder why you don't find something to do." Conradt said. "But my feeling is when you're coming off a disappointing
season, your anticipation is even greater."
Conradt's excitement is fueled by the realization that last season's struggles had a lot to do with a young team trying to deal with losing four seniors.
This season, the Longhorns will be without center Angela Jackson, an All-Big 12 selection last season, but the rest of the team returns. That includes Edwina Brown, who teamed up with Kansas junior Lynn Pride and won a gold medal in Taiwan this summer for the USA women's basketball Jones Cup team.
Other returns include Lummus (11.6 ppg), guard Vanessa Wallace (10.8 ppg), forward Dee Smith (7.0 ppg) and sophomore Carla Littleton, who sat out last season with a knee injury. Rashunda Johnson, a 6-4 center, also will join the team.
Johnson originally signed with Texas for
the 1997-98 season but didn't enroll after failing to post a qualifying test score. Johnson has four years of eligibility left, and Conradt projects her to replace Jackson in the starting lineup.
Johnson is one of six freshmen on the roster. Unlike most coaches, Conradt likes new bodies on the team.
"I love coaching freshmen." she said. "I think

team balance by making everyone on the floor a threat.
Some players are struggling to learn the concepts of the new attack, but Johnson said that once the team decoded the offense, it would roll.
"I don't really understand it yet, but it's coming," Johnson said. "But it's going to be the bomb offense. It's going to be tight."
The Jayhawks also will feature a new look on defense. Washington had to be selective with how much the team
pressed last year but with more depth, those restrictions are all but gone.
"Now we can give 110 percent for five minutes, then sit down for two," John s on said "We'll

newcomers: sophomore transfer Brooke Reves, freshmen Kristin Geoffroy, Katie Hannon, Selena Scott and Dameyla Stepney.
"It's tough for them because we're going so fast," Johnson said. "Last year, we went a little slower. We'd do everything five or six times. But now, it's not like that with everybody back."
But still, the freshmen have been impressive. Johnson said that Scott had done well, and Washington has said that the 6-foot-6 Geoffroy had made more progress than expected.
The team's exhibition and first three regular season games will be played under experimental rules. The changes call for each team to have no more than three players line up for the rebound during free throws, and each team will have five 30-second timeouts.
This season also will see a move to curb physical play in the paint. Officials have been instructed to call a foul on a defensive player who puts an open hand on an opponent.

Commentary
University needs men's soccer team
Overlooked sport deserves attention
Let's discuss the issue closest to home: why Kansas doesn't have men's varsity soccer.
This is an issue that friends and I have discussed for four years. We had our thoughts, even suspicions, as to why this was the case. However, conjecture isn't good enough. So, to get the answers to this question right from the horse's mouth, I spoke with Bob Frederick, director of Intercollegiate Athletics for the University of Kansas. As I've suspected all along, he's a credit to his position and to this university's athletic programs.
For those of you who follow college sports (no, just following the Kansas men's basketball doesn't count), you will have heard some of this before. Bear with me.
in 1971, Congress passed the Title IX legislation for education reform and equity. Thrown onto the bill was a rider that applied educational equity to athletics. It was meant to make the bill so unpalatable, it would fail — boy, did that backfire! This languished for years, but in the 1990s, a major push has been made to strictly apply Title IX to intercollegiate sports.
This legislation has been interpreted to mean that men and women should receive the athletic scholarships in proportion to the ratio of male and female students on campus. Fair enough.
Here is the trouble: Football requires 88 scholarship, far more
CARL E. WILSON
than any other sport. The last time I checked, there weren't too many females at the University on football scholarships. Ergo, there have to be more female varsity sports (or, alternatively, fewer men's varsity sports). Several
Sam Pierron
sports /'sʌvə(r)z/ sports, including soccer, are all varsity sports for women, but not for men.
In addition, men's soccer is not a championship sport in the Big 12. In other words, if the University started a men's soccer program, it would have to be independent, which could be a tough task given the paucity of NCAA Division I varsity soccer programs in the area.
Frederick said the addition of
women's soccer as a championship sport was one of the first actions taken by the Big 12, which I agree, should be applauded. However, he thought it unlikely that men's soccer would attain the same status any time soon, mostly because of the financial restraints put on athletic departments by Title IX, which forces them to create what are largely non-revenue women's sports programs.
the other major problem Frederick mentioned was the lack of a facility. As men's and women's NCAA soccer are both fall sports, the teams would not be able to share their facility for both practicing and playing.
Frederick made a very encouraging remark. He said that in his 12-year era as University athletic director, he had received many letters asking him why the University didn't have men's varsity soccer. It was reassuring to know I wasn't the only one.
So, should those of us who wish to remedy this problem be bowed? Nay, nay, a thousand times nay.
First, I'd like to say I have a particular vision for Kansas men's soccer. That field south of Watkins would make a really nice place for a 3,000 seat stadium. I can see freshmen who had played the game their whole lives, drawn to watching a division I program at Soccerhawk Park.
Further, I see the program as a draw for students from strong soccer-playing countries helping to create the atmosphere at the games. Finally, I see the games bringing in kids from around the city, giving them a chance to see role models playing the same game that they play, only a few miles from home.
The essential point of this is that I see a KU soccer program as a potential revenue-earner, or at least revenue-neutral, which I am sure the people in charge of it wouldn't expect.
What will it take for this to happen? Well, that is an easy one. Want to know why the baseball team, which draws no crowds, has a newly refurbished stadium? Former KU baseball player and very rich alumnus Forrest Hoglund decided they needed one and paid for the whole thing.
So, soccer fans, go out there, get rich and give the money to the University for a stadium, funding for the team and funding for an equally endowed women's sport. It is as simple as that.

Oklahoma quarterback calls media unfair
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma quarterback Eric Moore defended his coach yesterday while lashing out at the media for what he called unfair treatment of the players and the program.
Moore, a fifth-year senior who has been through three coaches and four offensive coordinators, and about 10 other players gathered to support coach John Blake.
nim and taking a stand and saying coach is a good coach."
The gathering apparently was done without Blake's knowledge. He had concluded his weekly news conference and had left the room before Moore was interviewed.
Moore said he understood how the media could be critical of Blake, considering the Sooners are 10-21 in his three years and have shown no
e ear direction with the offense during that time.
As a team, we're tired of the media trying to get on coach Blake and trying to tell him that he's not a good coach and that they need to fire him," Moore said. "A lot of times, Coach Blake does so much for us. He stands up for us so much at times, it's time for us to start standing up for

coaches' fault.
"We've been killing ourselves," he said. "We've been shooting ourselves in the foot. You can't put the blame on Coach Blake or the coaches on the staff because
he's not out there playing."
Moore started every game as a redshirt freshman in 1995, under Howard Schnellenberger. He shared the job with Justin Fuente for the next two years under Blake, and by the end of last season both were taking a back seat to Brandon Daniels because Blake decided to switch to an option attack.
Answering a question about the offensive instability, Moore said the media had no idea what actually went on inside a football program.
"I know that y'all are trying to do what y'all got to do, but you don't know how much of y'all writing y'all's stories can tear up a team's focus, can tear up a team's attitude," he said. "Y'all just do not know what kind of damage y'all are doing to this university and this organization."
He said the players and fans were affected by what was written and said. Moore said he had been booed more than

"We're humans, too," he said. "We've got emotions, too. We've got feelings, too, and it seems like y'all really don't even care about that. I understand that y'all want to move up on the ladder or whatever and be big time or whatever, but man. Y'all just ridicule people.
have nothing positive to say." Moore also had a heated exchange with a reporter who tried to explain why Blake had been criticized.
"I don't care if y'all don't like people. I don't even care what it is. I need to ask y'all, do y'all have God in y'all's life? Because it really don't make no sense. Y'all are just sitting up there tearing this university apart. Y'all are tearing it apart. Y'all don't
nave nothing positive to say."
"I'm just asking you, what gives you the right to take shots at us or our coach?" he asked. "Because what you say these players read, and it affects them."
Afterward, Moore sought out at least one reporter and apologized for getting emotional. He said his comments could be contributed to five years of frustration.
"I just wanted people to think about what kids go through," he said.
Running back's 525-yard night breaks 5A record
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Before every game, Irving High School running back Tyson Thompson sets a statistical goal, usually between 200 and 300 yards. But for his first game after being held to 27 yards on 23 carries, Thompson wanted to do something really special, which he did.
Thompson had 525 yards and seven touchdowns on 33 carries in a 45-29 victory against Hurst Bell last Friday night. The yardage broke the state's week-old Class 5A record and it is believed to be the eighth-best performance in national high school history.
Thompson's performance is the third incredible outing by a Texan in two weekends. The previous Friday night, Houston Milby's Derick Arnold set the 5A record with 446 yards and Darryl Ellis of Class 2A Somerville gained either 602 yards on 48 carries or 52 on 47, depending on which team's statistics are accurate.
"It was something that you just don't see," Irving coach Jim Bennett said. "My girl's basketball coach said he sat down and figured that he's seen over 700 games and had never anything like it. It was just amazing to watch."
But Thompson's performance may be the most impressive because he had fewer carries, played against better competition and was trying to avoid being eliminated from the playoffs against a team that would clinch a postseason berth with a victory.
Bennett, nonetheless, had high expectations going into the game. Redemption for the previous week's off-game was one reason; the new, fast turf at Beford's Pennington Field was another.
Irving opened the game with a sweep to Thompson and he took it 74 yards for a touchdown. He scored six more times, including touchdowns of 80 and 99 yards on consecutive carries. The 89-yarder was his longest, while the shortest covered only 50 yards. The rest of the touchdowns were from 52, 66 and 53 yards, giving Thompson 464 yards on scoring runs alone.
"We just did not tackle very well," Bell coach Jack Gibson said. "One play, we would stop him for no gain. Then, they would run the same play in the same situation and he would go 80 yards."
Thompson, who went untouched on four of his touchdowns, said, "I have a lot of confidence in my offensive line and I knew that (Bell) was a little weak in the cutback lanes."
Bennett has two brothers who are coaches and neither believed Thompson's total at first. Jefferson high coach Jerry Bennet heard it on television and figured the announcer had bad information. Phil Bennett, a secondary coach for the Oklahoma Sooners, read it in the newspaper and considered it a misprint.
Bennett's wife was in West Texas when he called her with the news. Because of his hoarse voice, she expected to hear that Irving had lost.
"I told her she wasn't going to be believe it and when I started giving her the stats she didn't," he said. "She said, 'Now say that again?'
Thompson, a 6-foot-2-inch, 185-pound junior, leads the area with 1,985 yards and 19 touchdowns. With 137 yards in the season finale against Irving MacArthur, the defense in the district, he would break the 10-year-old city record of 2,121 yards.
But Bennett is concerned that his team (5-4) may not be prepared to play MacArthur because of the fallout from Thompson's feat.
"To be real honest, its' been a real distraction," the coach said. "We want the kid and the team to get all the credit they deserve, but at the same time we've got a big game coming up. We've got to get back down to earth and start thinking about that."

Yankees' coach keeps winning
Torre recognized as manager of year after Series victory
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Joe Torre, whose patient style and calming influence helped guide the New York Yankees to a record 125 wins and their 24th World Series championship, won The Associated Press manager of the year award yesterday.
"It's nice to get recognition," said Torre, who won the AP NL manager of the year award in 1982 while with Atlanta. Since 1984, only one award has been given for both leagues.
Torre, who won his second Series in three years with New York, received 85 votes from a national panel of writers and broadcasters. San Diego's Bruce Bochy finished second with 48 1/2 votes, followed by the Cubs' Jim Riggleman (20 1/2), Houston's Larry Dierker (10) and Boston's Jim Williams (8).
"During the season we went through, you have one purpose in mind — to win the World Series," Torre said. "All of a sudden, the awards come along, and it's like a cherry on top of a great season. I was just along for the ride."
But Torre did more than just ride
his players to an AL-record 114 wins during the regular season and an 112 postseason mark, capped by a sweep of the San Diego Padres in the World Series.
In the media maelstrom of New York and with a meddlesome owner like George Steinbrenner, Torre didn't flinch when the team started 1-4. He exhibited remarkable patience and kept his team focused on each game even though the Yankees ran away from the rest of the American League by Memorial Day.
"When you go to the All-Star break with 61 wins, you realize this

and never look too far forward.

Tampa Bay in September.
Torre said his job was little more than writing out a lineup card, making pitching changes and patting guys on the back every once in a while. But his players know that baseball's best team didn't operate on autopilot.
"For the most part, he lets us play," Bernie Williams said during the World Series. "He has a very good idea of what everyone in the room can do and he doesn't expect anything less from us. He doesn't expect anything more from us than to play to our capabilities, and if we're not, he's going to let us hear about it."
Because of Torre's leadership and an extremely talented team, the Yankees won more games — regular and postseason — than any other team in history. Torre said winning more games than any other Yankees team was the ultimate achievement.
said he hasn't seen a better team in his nearly 40 years in baseball.
As for their rank in history, Torre
"You look at the Oakland A's clubs that won a few world championships in a row and the Cincinnati club in '76 that was always a standard for me, I think we have better pitching than they have," he said. "We have to take a backseat to no one in my lifetime."
All of the top five vote-getters led their teams into the playoffs. Bochy won his second division title in four years as a manager, winning a teamrecord 98 games and leading the Padres to their first World Series in 14 years.
Riggleman's Cubs earned the NL wild-card berth and made the playoffs for the first time since 1989. Dierker, in his second year, won his secondNL Central title for the Astros. Williams, in his second year in Boston, earned the AL wild-card berth.

Stewart's goal is to one day become a general manager. He was hired by San Diego as a special assistant in 1997 and took the job of pitching coach after the 1997 season only after he was promised that he would still keep his front office duties.
"I'm excited about the possibilities, but I'm not excited about leaving San Diego," the
41-year-old Stewart said Monday. He said part of his decision has to do with where his 16-year-old daughter would be most comfortable.
His pitching staff was a big reason the Padres reached the World Series this year, where they were swept by the New York Yankees.
With Stewart overseeing a staff bolstered by the addition of ace Kevin Brown, the Padres' pitching staff improved dramatically, from a franchise-worst 4.99 ERA in 1997 to 3.63 this year, third-best in the NL, Atlanta and Houston, which had higher team ERAs than San Diego, were both eliminated by the Padres in the playoffs.
"I had no idea that we'd have the success we had as a staff," said Stewart, who was known for his steely glare when he was a pitcher.
"That was a beautiful thing as far as that I've concerned. For me, I think I've not only gained a relationship with the guys, but I have a personal relationship with them. That's why that worked this year. I got to know my guys."
ABL hopes NBA lockout will help women's basketball
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — No. 23 in the red-trimmed Chicago uniform creates just the right amount of backspin and sinks a smooth jumper.
The Condors hope to lock in fans while the Bulls' players are locked out. Their home arena, the University of Illinois-Chicago Pavilion, is about two miles from the United Center.
Sound familiar? This time it is not Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls. It is E.C. Hill of the Chicago Condors in the American Basketball League, the newest women's pro-basketball team in town. In fact, it is the only team playing right now.
"Iam sympathetic to the guys; it's unfortunate, but then it couldn't happen at a better time," said Hill, who wears the familiar No. 23 as a tribute to Jordan and Chicago, her hometown. "When you expand into Chicago, you take the good and the bad."
Coach Jim Cleamons, who spent seven years as an assistant coach for the Bulls, said his team was trying to take advantage of the lockout and thought fans would like the women's games.
"If you want the dunks and other things, obviously they
don't have the ability to play above the rim, even though they will play more competitively for 40 minutes than men do."
Cleamons, who also coached the Dallas Mavericks, is part of a heavy Bulls' influence on the first-year team, which starts play Friday against Nashville.
The general manager is Allison Hodges, wife of Craig Hodges, the former Bulls 3-point specialist and now a volunteer assistant for the Condors.
There is also the familiar triangle offense, created by Bulls assistant Tex Winter, a complex series of offensive moves and options designed to get the best shot and confound the best defense.
"We run a lot of the triangle, and we are still trying to get the basics down right now," said Hill, who has played overseas and spent last season under coach K.C. Jones in New England.
Cleamons, who played for nine-years in the NBA and was part of the 1971-72 Los Angeles Lakers championship team, was fired by the Mavericks last year after less than 1 1/2 seasons and a 20-78 record.
Now he is looking for a place to teach and somewhere to be happy with players who will listen to what he has to offer.
ABL AMERICAN BASKETBALL LEAGUE
"I am coaching these ladies the same way I coach the men," he said. "The only basic difference here is that they have an agenda, they want to please, they want to be successful, where a lot of the men once they reach the NBA, they think they've already arrived."
"These ladies have been all over the world trying to earn a living and now they have the opportunity to come back home and they certainly appreciate the opportunity before them, something a lot of men take for granted."
Cleamons' roster includes Yolanda Griffith, runner-up for last season's MVP; Joanne McCarthy, the sister of TV personality Jenny McCarthy; and 1984 Olympian Cathy Boswell.
The Bulls' Randy Brown and ex-Bulls guard Pete Myers show up once a week to scrimmage with the Condors. Pippe, the Celtics' Antoine Walker and Toronto's Charles Oakley also have made practice appearances.
"We appreciate them taking the time," Hill said.
Inspection unfair manufacturers say
The Associated Press
NEWARK, N.J. — Setting up a possible legal showdown with equipment manufacturers, the U.S. Golf Association adopted a controversial test that could make the next generation of golf clubs illegal.
In a related effort to limit the distance that players can drive a golf ball, the USGA also said Monday it would like to update two methods for testing balls.
"These measures will not take balls or clubs out of golfers' bags," USGA executive director David Fay said, asserting that the best players will be affected the most, not the average players.
Club manufacturers, however, have maintained the new test for clubs is not needed because the current crop of high-tech drivers has not changed the game, despite the hoopla surrounding ultra-long hitters such as Tiger Woods and John Daly.
The metal woods, which cost up to $500, have been embraced by many of the nation's 25 million golfers and are credited for sharply increasing club sales to $1.7 billion wholesale in 1997.
The manufacturers also claim the test stifles innovation, is technically flawed and does not measure how golf balls really are struck.
At a September forum near the
USGA's Far Hills headquarters, manufacturers also left little doubt that unless the association withdrew its proposal they would sue.
Ely Calaway, founder, chairman and chief executive officer of Callaway Golf, which makes the Big Bertha line, called the club test wrong and bad for golf.
"We know that some people have been peddling the idea that new technology has made the game too easy, particularly for the professionals," Callaway said. "We think that nothing can be further from the truth, as shown by the scores this weekend at the Tour Championship at East Lake Country Club and by the handicaps of average golfers."
Fay said the USGA staff and outside experts considered the manufacturers' critiques of the clubtesting procedure and concluded the test was scientifically valid.
The test was proposed to determine whether clubs violated a provision added to "The Rules of Golf" in 1984 that barred clubheads from having a spring-like effect, which could propel a ball farther.
Current clubs, some designed by rocket scientists and aerospace engineers, use lightweight graphite shafts and titanium to provide a forgiving, oversized clubhead on a longer stick that makes it easier for players to hit the ball farther and straighter.
Fay said the test was developed because the USGA opposed added distance resulting solely from enhancements in equipment with
"We know that some people have been peddling the idea that new technology has made the game too easy, particularly for the professionals. We think that nothing can be further from the truth ..."
Ely Callaway
Founder and CEO of Callaway Golf
no improvement in the player's skill level.
"If history tells us anything, it is that added distance inevitably will lead to longer golf courses, escalating costs and slower play." Fay said.
The USGA executive committee unanimously approved the measures on testing clubs and balls Saturday during its meeting in Far Hills, Fay said. Thirteen of the 16 members attended, and one of the absent members voted by proxy, he said.
Clubs that do not conform to "The Rules of Golf," published by the USGA and its European counterpart, "The Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrew," Scotland, cannot be used by pro or amateur golfers in competition.
Fay did not know if the European counterpart intended to incorporate the tests, since rules on clubs and balls could be considered independently, but said he hoped it did.

Collins apologizes for getting arrested
Collins' arrest early Monday was just the latest distraction for the Saints, a team suffering both on and off the field. On the field, they have gone from 3-0 to 4-4. Their offense is ranked 23rd in the NFL and the likes of the Vikings, 49ers, Dolphins, Cowboys and Falcons lie ahead. Off the field, distractions have included a training camp hazing incident and various players' brushes with the law.
NEW ORLEANS — A contrite Kerry Collins apologized yesterday for driving drunk in North Carolina and said it wouldn't happen again.
The Associated Press
"We've had a lot of off-field problems, and in our situation — not one
"I take full responsibility. This is a serious offense and it should not be taken lightly," the newest New Orleans Saints quarterback said at a news conference. He was reading from a prepared statement.
"This is my first offense," said Collins. "It will be my only offense. I realize I'm at a critical junction in my career. Therefore, I'm going to rededicate myself to football."
"This is my first offense. It will be my only offense.I realize I'm at a critical junction in my career. Therefore,I'm going to rededicate myself to football"

"The last thing I told him was, 'It's a very hostile environment down there. Can you handle that?'" a weary Mike Ditka said Monday. "And he said, 'I'm not going to get into any trouble.'"
Collins was arrested in North Carolina and charged with drunken driving early Monday, hours after the Panthers, his former team, beat the Saints. Collins never got into the game, watching from the sideline while the Carolina fans booed and ieered him.
of the elite teams — we cannot afford to have those problems interfere with our football," Saints cornerback Tyronne Drakeford said. "Somehow we've got to find a way to get around it and focus on what's going on the field."
New Orleans Saints quarterback
Connis has gotten into plenty of trouble since the Panthers made him their first pick in 1995. He was called a boozer, a racist and finally a quitter after he reportedly told Carolina coach Dom Capers his heart was not in the game. The Panthers cut Collins after that, and the Saints claimed him off waivers.
The Saints are being sued because of a hazing incident at training camp that injured three players, fourth round draft pick Julian Pittman is in jail in Florida for parole violations, wide receiver Keith Poole is charged with assaulting a man with a golf club, players Joe Johnson, Eric Ford and Keno Hills have had scraps with the law and former player Andre Royal was arrested while celebrating a contract with the Saints.
Tyson to make comeback
The Associated Press
Finkel said vesterdav in New York.
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson will make his comeback against South Africa's Francois Botha in Las Vegas on Jan. 16, according to published reports yesterday.
In Las Vegas, a source close to the negotiations also said nothing had
London newspapers The Sun and The Independent said the former heavyweight champion had signed for the fight with America Presents promoters.
In New York, The Daily News said the fight was "a done deal." The newspaper said Tyson had received a large cash advance to help with his cash-flow problems.
But Tyson's adviser, Shelly Finkel,
said the deal had not been finalized.
"Our plan is for him to fight in January, (but) Mike has not concluded a deal to fight anybody in January,"

for biting Evander Hollyfield's ears during their title fight.
Tyson's license was restored last month by the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
Botha is the No.1 contender for Holyfield's International Boxing Federation title. Holyfield also holds the World Boxing Association crown.
A representative for Showtime, the cable company that will teleview the fight, said Germany's Axl Schultz also was being considered; and she said the deal could be closed by the end of the week.
The Sun and The Independent said Botha was being handled by British promoter Frank Warren. A representative for Warren would not confirm the Tyson-Botha fight had been made.

Faces of Life
Young adults who have endured cancer share the stories of how the struggle changed their lives.

Richard Barbuto, former KU student, is a cancer survivor. He hopes to have put that part of his life behind him and now is attending school at St. Mary College and is working as the assistant bmaster at the High Noon Saloon in Leavenworth. Photo by Graham K. Johnson/KANSAN
Story by Julie M. Sachs
At 28, Amy Laughlin lost her breast, her hair and the naive notion that women her age do not get cancer.
Fighting cancer in her 20s made Laughlin, a graduate student in music and dance at the University of Kansas, feel as if she were much older.
"Friends would always tell stories of moms and grandmas with cancer," she said. "That was the weird thing."
Statistically, not many people in their 20s get cancer in 1997, the American Cancer Society estimated that about 180,000 women would be diagnosed with breast cancer during the year and that only 600 of these women were expected to be younger than 30. But those young adults, such as Laughlin, who have battled cancer said that the struggle changed them physically and emotionally. And health professionals said that the struggle could be a lonely one.
There are cancers that are prevalent among
young adults. Stephen Williamson, acting director of medical oncology at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said testicular cancer appeared in college-age men 20 to 40 percent of the time.
Richard Barbuto, 24, who attended the University in the Fall 1966, learned he had testicular cancr in January 1997. He had been having pain in his testicles, so he performed a self-exam. Something felt wrong.
A sonogram confirmed that there was a large mass in his left testicle. Doctors removed his cancerous testicle within the month, but the cancer already had spread to his lungs.
Chemotherapy destroyed most, but not all, of the tumors in his lungs.
On May 18, 1997, instead of attending a U2 concert, Barbuto was back in the hospital where doctors surgically deflated his right lung and removed the remaining tumors.

Big 12 loses National Merit Scholars
Recruiting growing more competitive
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
By Melody Ard
Four out of five of the top recruiting schools in the Big 12 Conference lost scholarships this fall. As a result, the University of Kansas maintained its fifth-place ranking in the Big 12 conference, despite it's 25-student drop in National Merit Scholars.
The top five schools were the University of Texas, 202 scholar; University of Oklahoma, 152 scholar; Texas A&M University, 149 scholar; Iowa State University, 111 scholar; and the University of Kansas, 63 scholars. Iowa State gained one National Merit Scholar.
The University of Kansas is not the only Big 12 school wondering where the National Merit Scholars went.
National Merit Scholars
Describe a decrease of 25 National Merit Scholars the university of kansas instituted as a member in the top five of the B.g.12 schools
University of Texas - 89
Iowa State University - 111
Texas A&M University - 149
University of Oklahoma - 152
University of Texas - 202
"It is getting more competitive to get scholars," he said. "We had big jumps in the early '90s, but more people are making special offers now it is getting harder to maintain the numbers."
Don Davis, associate director of financial aid at the University of Texas, said Texas enrollment of scholars dropped by 50 this year, making the total the lowest in five years.
Davis said Texas' award packages guaranteed a student would not have to pay tuition or fees for four years. The money used to cover the scholarship was a combination of corporate, university and departmental scholarships.
Kristi Elliott / KANSAN
The University of Oklahoma enrolled 152 National Merit Scholars this year, one less than last year, and topped the conference for award packages offered to the scholars.
Craig Hays, associate director of the National Scholars Program at the University of Oklahoma, said the scholarship package and special treatment Oklahoma offered drew students to the university.
The university offers in-state students $40,000 scholarships and out-of-state students
$50,000 during afive-year period.
"We are one of the few universities who have an office just responsible for recruitment of National Merit Scholars," Hayes said. "They get personal attention, an opportunity to enroll early before grad students and athletes, and they can use part of their scholarships to study abroad."
Alan Cerveny, director of admissions at the University of Kansas, said larger award packages offered by other schools and the lower number of high school students in Kansas caused the University to have fewer scholars.
The University of Kansas offers $5,000 scholarships to National Merit Scholars.
However, Cerveny said he was pleased with the overall efforts in recruiting National Merit Scholars and other honors students.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said that National Merit Scholars were just one way to measure talented students and their success at the University
"We don't have as many students in state to attract," he said.
"I think it is clear, even though we have fewer National Merit Scholars, that the incoming freshmen are even better prepared than the previous year." Hemenway said.
Most other Big 12 Conference schools enrolled between 20 and 30 new scholars.
Kansas State University enrolled 27 National Merit Scholars this fall, six more than last year. Kansas State is the only other Kansas school that has a consistent enrollment of National Merit Scholars.

StudEx members question handling of Kaiser criticism
KU student body vice president says he has sufficient' office hours
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Members of the Student Executive Committee who did not sign a letter of complaint detailing alleged inadequacies of Student Body Vice President Scott Kaiser's job performance, expressed disapproval with the manner the complaint was presented.
Copies of the letter handed to Kaiser regarding problems with his performance were passed out by Julie Numrich, StudEx chairwoman. StudEx is a 13-person committee that approves the agenda for each Senate meeting.
Kaiser addressed each problem with his performance individually.
Jennifer Bonicelli, executive secretary, said she didn't like that a letter had to be written to talk about the problems.
"Just come out and say it if you're angry. If people are ever upset with me, please, come tell me, don't just write a letter," she said.
The first complaint in the letter said Kaiser had not served his required office hours.
"I can look in the mirror and tell myself that I've been in the office sufficient time." Kaiser said.
Kaiser provided the group with a sheet outlining where he spends his time serving as vice president. Each week showed him serving from six-and-a-half to 11 1/2 extra hours than necessary. Kaiser said that it may appear that he was shirking responsibilities but that he had spent much of his time attending meetings such as parking board, recreation task force and Lawrence Chamber of Commerce events, among others.
LEGISLATION
PASSED, a bill to allocate $307 to KU Choral Society.
PASSED, a bill to allocate $102 to KU's Mock Trial Team.
TABLED, a bill to create a restricted fee for Legal Services for Students.
PASSED, a bill to allocate $375 to the KU Association for Computing.
At one point, Kaiser said people needed to come talk to him if they had specific concerns.
FAILED, a bill to amend Rules and Regulations, article 3. The bill states that applicants for replacement senator seats only be allowed to apply for one seat.
PASSED BY ACCLAMATION, a resolution concerning the higher education governance structure in the state of Kansas. The resolution asks that the Board of Regents include a student member.
Kaiser went on to address the rest of the problems, from not respecting StudEx's right to set the agenda, to starting meetings late and being biased.
Matt Dunbar, senior holdover senator, said that people had talked to Kaiser but that the problems were not corrected.
"I don't see this letter as a personal attack — we just have some problems we want addressed," he said.
Last spring, Kaiser's compliance with required office hours for the transportation coordinator position he held were questioned by Delta Force coalition members. In turn, the Campus Cause coalition questioned Emily Heath's office-hour service as Center for Community Outreach co-director.
During last spring's campaign, the Student Organization and Leadership Development Center log book, which recorded Kaiser and Heath's hours, showed that each was physically in the office less than their required hours of 20 for Kaiser and 15 for Heath.

International students may be targets of calls
International Student Services sent an email to KU international students Tuesday evening warning them not to give out personal and financial information by phone.
A few international students told the office Tuesday that they had received phone calls last week requesting information including their Social Security numbers, credit card numbers and visa numbers. The caller allegedly identified himself as a representative of the International Student Services office.
Michael Ediger, assistant director of the office, said that no students gave out any information that would be detrimental to them.
the e-mail, which Ediger estimated would reach about 1,100 of the 1,410 international students, encouraged them to try to identify the name and number of the caller if they received a similar call.
"We are presently investigating these calls and any additional information will prove helpful to us," the message stated.
Ediger urged students to guard their personal information in all situations even if it seemed legitimate.
Ediger said it was evident that the calls targeted international students specifically. He said that was not always the case with suspicious phone calls and he didn't think they were any more of a target than other college students.

Writing center opens; staff, tutors introduced
Last night's Writers' Roost open house formally introduced the student tutors and staff of the new campus writing center to KU administrators.
Michele Eodice, director of Writing Consulting: Student Resources, said she planned the event as a way to gather the people who were instrumental in making the student writing center a reality.
"There been tremendous support for the program," she said. "It has blown away myths about big universities not being in touch or able to cooperate."
Although it was a celebration, Eodice said the event was planned as a way to introduce and recognize the 20 student tutors.
Other speakers scheduled were Pat McQueeney, director of Writing Consulting; Faculty Resources; Jim Hartman, English professor; and Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost.
After two weeks of tutoring, the center had helped 70 students.
Eodice said in addition to the open house, the group also sends tutors into classes to talk with faculty and students about the program.
Faculty interested in setting up a visit with tutors may call 864-2399.

Task force to talk about higher education system
Several groups involved in the state's attempt to restructure higher education governance will present their views today when a taskforce on the issue meets in Topeka.
The Task Force on Higher Education Structure for Excellence, which Gov. Bill Graves began earlier this year, will have its November meeting today. The discussion is expected to center on the need for a new coordinating body between the Kansas Board of Regents, community colleges and vocational-technical schools.
Tom Bryant, interim executive director of the Kansas Board of Regents, said that the Regents would present a proposal to the task force that would support a new coordinating and planning body but it would not change the governing duties in place now.
Korb Maxwell, Student Legislative Advisory Board director, said he would present a summary of findings from a new statewide student senate board, which includes Regents' universities and community colleges.
"I will be speaking on behalf of students across the state on our concerns including articulation, excellence and assessment, affordability and financing, and direct student representation," he said.

Nike to sponsor race to be held at nighttime
In an effort to increase women's knowledge about nighttime safety, the Nike Swoosh Team will sponsor a race tonight.
Instead of starting in the early morning, like other races, the mile run will start about 8 p.m. at the Lied Center.
KU Public Safety officers will be available for protection during the race, which is open to all women.
Representatives from the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center also are supporting the event.
Katherine Rose-Mocky, director at the women's resource center, said: "It's helpful for women to be aware of their surroundings so that they can limit someone's access and eliminate themselves as a target."
Last year's race had about 20 participants. This year, Charles Henderson, Swoosh Team president and Overland Park senior, said he hoped more women would get involved.
All participants will receive free Powerade and a Nike product.

Lawrence police arrested a 29-year-old Kansas City, Mo., man Tuesday night with a large quantity of a substance they believed to be crack cocaine, an undisclosed amount of money and several guns
Police arrest man for possible crack possession
Police said they were waiting for test results, which would determine whether the substance was crack and
how much there was.
Police went to 1206 Pennsylvania St. to serve a warrant from Atkinson County where the man was wanted for possession of cocaine with intent to sell within 1,000 feet of a school and for a parole violation. Lawrence police said.
When police arrived, they found the man, three children — ages 3, 6 and 17 years old. I guess they hid
Two of the children, the G- and B-year-olds, were the man's.
The three children were placed in protective custody, the 17-year-old was placed in the juvenile detention center, and the man was placed in Douglas County Jail, Lawrence police said.
Douglas County Sheriff Loren Anderson said that local law enforcement agencies had located the man by a tip phoned in by an anonymous source.
Eudora man arrested for child pornography
A 26-year-old Eudora man was arrested Tuesday night after Douglas County Sheriff's officers raided his home and seized pornographic pictures of a 6-year-old Baldwin girl.
After obtaining a search warrant, the officers, along with Eudora and Baldwin law enforcement officers, entered the man's house and took several items as evidence.
They seized pornographic pictures — some of which included the Baldwin girl, and a computer and diskettes authorities believe contain more pictures, said Lt. Mui Suit, of the Douglas County Sheriff's Office.
Sheriff Loren Anderson said he victim told her mother, and then she told the police. Sheriff Anderson said they next
Sherm's officers say they stopped the man of putting the pictures online.
the man of putting the pictures online. Anderson said that the man's arrest was not part of the recent nationwide crack down on child pornography rings.
The man was arrested at 6:20 p.m. and placed in the Douglas County Jail on one count of sexual exploitation of a child, one count of aggravated criminal sodomy and three counts of rape, jail officials said. No bond had been set

It may be 421 days until the turn of the century, but work on the 2000 Census will start tomorrow.
Census numbers are used to determine representation in Congress and to distribute federal funding.
Every 10 years since Congress passed the Census Act in 1790, the U.S. Census Bureau has counted the number of persons living in the United States and collected other data about the country's population.
Tomorrow, census workers in Kansas will comb through cities, towns, neighborhoods and rural areas, knocking on every door where someone might live, in order to update the Census Bureau's address information.
Census workers will conduct a short interview at each residence. Workers will ask occupants their names and mailing addresses so that census takers can find each housing unit in March 2000.
"The address list and related maps are the foundation of a complete and accurate census," said Henry Palacios, regional director for the Census Bureau in Kansas City, Mo. "Some of the people who were missed in the 1990 census were missed because the Census Bureau didn't know their housing unit exist."
Palacios said that without a complete address list the 2000 census would be less accurate.
Tom Beaver, media partnership specialist for the Census Bureau, said that census counting in Lawrence was a challenge because of the large turnover of University of Kansas students from residence to residence.
Beaver said 2000 would be the first census that students who did not receive a census questionnaire in the mail or from a census taker could pick up a "be counted" form at a post office or public library.
He said that in the past, if people did not get a form or lost it, they did not get counted.

Campus offices accept reports of harassment
By Dan Curry
Special to the Kansan
When a University of Kansas graduate teaching assistant tried to report that her group's poster had been vandalized, she found that it was hard to know just who to call.
On Sunday, Christine Robinson, a member of Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates, discovered an anti-homosexual slur scrawled across a poster advertising the group's party.
Posters advertising the ripped down elsewhere had gone unreported, but this time Robinson called the KU Public Safety Office.
Public Safety Office "Public Safety was right there for me as usual," she said. However, she had to do a lot of digging to find out who else she should contact, she said.
Orfices that handle bias incidents don't always share their information, and students don't always know where to report the occurrences when they do happen. Robinson said.
According to a referral guide distributed by the Division of Student Affairs, victims of harassment can be directed to five different numbers.
Dorie Williams, Topeka graduate teaching assistant, said that if she were a victim of a hate crime, she wouldn't be sure who to call.
"I'd probably go to someone who has more contacts," she said.
The University Information Center is one resource for students to find the proper individual, but it does not actually keep records.
Recording this information is important because it influences the administration's policy decisions concerning bias-motivated incidents, Robinson said. She contacted numerous University offices in an effort to make certain the event was recorded.

of the Equal Opportunity Office, said, "Reporting incidents can give you an idea if in fact a pattern is developing, whether there is some need for the institution to take action of some kind."
Bryan said that people should not hesitate to call his office, even if the act is apparently random.
Sgt. Troy Maileen said police still were investigating the case involving the poster Robinson discovered.
When such crimes occur, the police note whether it was blas-motivated and spread this information to other offices through an activity log, a computer database open to the public and an annual report.
Students who suspected a bias-motivated incident had taken place should contact police, Mailen said.
Students abroad far from chancellor's goal
Building a great university
Fourth of 10

"Today about 750 students study abroad.Iwould expect that to be at least 2,000 students by the year 2000."
1995 Faculty Convocation
Chancellor Robert
Hemenway
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway wants the University to send 2,000 KU students overseas by 2000.
Interest in study abroad is on the rise, but the University is a long way from the chancellor's goal.
address
when Hemenway first set the goal in the 10-point plan of his 1995 Faculty Convocation speech, he said he believed that 750 KU students had studied abroad between the fall of 1994 and the summer of 1995.
That number, rounded from 739, included non-KU students and double-counted students who spent more than one semester on an exchange. The number of KU students who studied abroad in the fall of 1994 and spring or summer of 1995 was only 461.
The chancellor said he was unaware that the number, 750, used in his speech did not represent KU students.
"I think the important question is what's been the increase in KU students," he said. "I still think we should aim for 2,000 in 2000."
In the 1997-98 academic year and the summer of 1998, 638 KU students studied abroad. To reach Hemenway's goal would require an increase of more than 1,300.
"I think if we're to achieve the goal, there's a considerable challenge, but there's no doubt in my mind that there's a desire and a need." Hemenway said.
Between 1994-95 and 1997-98, the number
Doug Schenkelberg, outreach coordinator of the office of study abroad, attributed the growth to campus-wide promotion and new study abroad programs.
of KU students abroad increased 38 percent.
new options for study abroad focus on departmental programs, summer programs and programs for students who don't speak a foreign language, Schenkelberg said.
Hemenay also aimed in his 1985 speech to increase the number of international students who attend the University to 2,500 by 2000.
2,000,000 2,000,000
The number of international students at the University has been declining since the fall of 1995. That semester, there were 1,732 international students, 322 more than this semester's 1,410.
Hemenway said the drop was because of the declining world economy.
"Various economic problems in Asia and elsewhere have cut into numbers," he said.
Joe Potts, director of International Student Services, said that the Asian economic crisis was a factor in the decline but was not the main reason.
"Probably the primary reason the numbers are down is increased competition both in the U.S. and around the world for international students," he said.
He said numbers were down throughout the U.S. because of increased competition from countries including Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand.
Potts said that costs such as airfare, buying a car and immigration fees forced international students to shop carefully for an education.
International students seek educational bargains within the United States by going
"Increasing non-resident tuition rates hurt states like Kansas relative to states like Oklahoma," he said.
to community colleges and to states with low non-resident tuition, Potts said.
Potts said the University could no longer depend primarily on word of mouth to draw international students.

(Incomplete)
Joe Potts, director of International Student Services, said there were a number of good ideas and initiatives currently under consideration. He said that departments across campus had shown interest in doing something about the negative trend in international student numbers.
Hemenway
"We try to find people interested in those kinds of scholarships," he said. "It's an ongoing goal to raise funds for that."
said increasing the number of study abroad and international student scholarships would improve participation in those programs.
Kansas polling sites see lowest voter turnout on record
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Voter participation was at a record low in Tuesday's statewide elections. Turnout at one student polling site reflected that.
Patty James, Douglas County Clerk. said 124 out of 1,033 registered voters - 12 percent - participated from the Allen Field House precinct, which serves only Jayhawker Towers and Daisy Hill residents. That is compared with 702 out of 1,399 registered voters in 1996.
Many KU students voted in precincts all around Lawrence, so there will be no means of gauging city-wide KU student turnout until voter history numbers are available, said Chuck Knapp, communications representative for the Secretary of State's Office.
Tom Moore, campus director of the Student Legislative Awareness Board, said he was surprised that more students in the field house precinct hadn't taken an interest in the closely contested 3rd District race between Republican Vince Snowbarger and Democrat Dennis Moore.
"I don't know why — when you are given a voting location as close as Allen Field House — you wouldn't go do it," Tom Moore said.
E L E C T I O N 98
Statewide, voter turnout was 49 percent compared with 75 percent during the 1996 election. This year's percentage was the lowest since Kansas began registering voters in 1968.
Knapp also said the number of voters
who participated in the election was the lowest since 1966.
It isn't unusual, Knapp said, to have lower voter turnout during non-presidential election years. But he said the last non-presidential election, in 1994, drew 64 percent of Kansas voters, and the 1990 election drew 67 percent.
rhere are a number of major factors that contributed to the low participation this year, Knapp said. He said there were fewer than usual local issues on the ballots, there were 60 uncontested Kansas House of Representatives seats
and there was only one open statewide race, which was for treasurer.
There also was a general sense of contentment among voters, he said.
"The Kansas economy has been very strong." Knapp said.
Tom Moore said there were a number of incumbents running for re-election who were expected to do very well.

He said he suspected that voter turnout was low because people already knew their favorite candidates would do well and because the weather was bad yesterday.
James said that voter turnout among
31st and 3rd District voters in Douglas
County was 46 percent this year compa-
pared with 76 percent in 1996. And overall
voter turnout in Douglas County was
47 percent, down from 76 percent in 1996.

University should limit broad-base restrictions on intellectual property
The University's proposed revisions to the Board of Regents' intellectual property policy are supposedly aimed at fostering the creation and dissemination of knowledge among faculty and students. However, in reality, they may stifle creativity and production.
This week, the University will submit a final draft of the proposal, which will be considered at a Nov. 19 Board meeting. The revised policy will determine with whom ownership of works created by University employees and students lies.
Proposed revisions to the existing policy encourage faculty and students to uninhibitedly pursue academic, scholarly and artistic creations, but the proposed changes do not remove any significant restrictions limiting creators' rights of ownership. The proposal only more clearly spells out the rules governing intellectual property by eliminating some of the vagueness plaguing the current policy.
KU's proposal will be considered at the Nov.19 Board of Regents meeting.
Unless they are conducting paid research, students retain ownership of their academic creations, but the University still reserves the right to modify or retain the students' work. The proposal clarifies that self-initiated mediated courseware — software for classes — manuscripts for academic journals, and scholarly and artistic works such as textbooks, scholarly monographs and trade publication=
and their revenues belong to the creat. But there are strings attached.
or a self-initiated mediated course is taught at another institution, for instance, the creator must reimburse the University for the use of its resources from the pay earned for offering the course. But most problematically, any work, such as those mentioned above, automatically belongs to the University if the creator made substantial use of University resources. Substantial use is defined as situations in which the creator receives more than normal support, time or resources specifically for the project. This poses some problems.
First, it is almost impossible to objectively judge what is more than normal support. This aspect of the policy seems like a direct call for confusion, misinterpretation and abuse. Second, almost all works by faculty and students are, to some extent, created through the use of University resources. Conveniently, this clause seemingly provides the University with broad control over a wide range of intellectual property and allows the scope of University ownership rights
to encompass almost all creations.
In addition, the University is explicitly granted ownership of institution-directed mediated courseware and copyrightable software exceeding a $10,000 market value. Although the software's creator is entitled to at least 25 percent of revenues, this concession also is burdened with a catch. In any case in which the creator receives a share of revenues, he or she must forfeit the revenues until the University recoups all costs associated with the creator's use of University equipment and materials. These costs may be difficult to accurately determine.
Perhaps the Board should consider granting the University a share of the revenues instead of outright ownership in some cases. This seems more reasonable and fair than the current policy. Ownership should, for the most part, lie with the creator, even if the University is legitimately entitled to a share of the profits. A policy such as this, although it may rain on the University's parade, would inevitably support more creative academic initiative—the original goal of the policy revision.
Fortunately, the University will be able to draft a more specific version of the Board's final policy and tailor it to the University's academic environment. The University should use this opportunity to limit the broad base of restrictions upon faculty and students in the current proposal.

University doesn't control health care
I write in response to Andrew Gawron's column concerning GRA/GTA health insurance, in which he chastises the University for having "prioritized semantics above fairness." Gawron should be aware that the University had no control over the rules governing eligibility for health insurance.
The Kansas State Health Commission mandated terms for eligibility. Health insurance benefits for University employees are within the purview of the state. We at the University do
not have the power to make any changes in coverage or to change the definition of "employee" to include those students who hold graduate research fellowships.

Kicking up leaf piles evokes fond memories

The heat, humidity and academic onslaught overwhelm us at the beginning of

Perspective
each school year, and then, finally, that day arrives. We step outside to face yet another set of responsibilities, and instead of feeling reluctant, some of us are inspired, aroused by the cool air and the smell of pine trees and burning leaves.
COLLEGE OF SPORTS
During the day, crowded pumpkin patches on the side of the road and little kids play tag on their front lawns canvitate us. A
chilling gust of wind confirms that fall has arrived, and as we walk, we hear the brittle leaves swirling around each other and scratching across the asphalt. For a brief moment, our minds clear, and we remember what it was like to be young and careless, without responsibility.
I remember all of the great things associated with the cool days and nights of fall:sweats, jean jackets, diving into mountains of dry leaves and rolling down leaf-covered hills, hay rides, lying on the frigid cement, caramel apples, camp outs, s'mores, hot chocolate, cider, school plays, Halloween parties, costumes and candy, carving pumpkins, haunted houses, scary movies, seasonal cartoon specials - Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin Patch - and Thanksgiving.
I remember running through the neighborhood in my red Kansas Jayhawk sweatpants and my gray hooded sweatshirt on a dark, October r evening. I would antagonize my sisters and play hide-and-seek with my little brothers and the neighborhood kids.
I nebriated by the damp autumn air, we searched frantically for the perfect hiding spot, and once we found it, we would sit and wait for the "ollyollyoxenfree, everyone come out" signal. We sat and talked about mindless things, the things that only mattered back then;
Kid 1: "Katy likes you."
Kid 2: Teen Right.
Kid 1: "She does I heard she did."
Kid 2: "Cut it out. She does not. Hey, have you gotten any Nolan Ryans later?"
you getten any Noah Kays is surely.
I don't recall having a legitimate care in the world. I would go out of my way to kick through a pile of dry, brown leaves that sat
across the street in Mr. Kelley's yard. I never once considered that it took old Mr. Kelley two days to rake those leaves. I never really considered anything.
never really consumed any After school, I would run home, change clothes and then sprint through backyards and jump fences to meet friends. We would spy on neighbors as they worked on their cars, swept their porches and chased squirrels from their yards.
When they spotted us, we would run and hide, only to surface moments later to laugh at the spectacle. We ran and ran from one house to another, gaining one friend here, losing another there to an injury or a dinner call.
My friends and I would build makeshift forts out of fallen branches, and we would use leaves and grass to fill the gaping holes. The forts were weak and stood only two or three feet high, but to us, they seemed indestructible and towering. Our perspectives were distorted, but always hopeful.
Dusk fell and dimmed our vision as we played tackle football, and steam puffed from our mouths and noses as we bent over, hands on our knees, exhausted and wheezing between downs. We would imitate our favorite players, and we would argue endlessly about the fairness of teams. Never tiring, never wanting to stop, we would play until we no longer could see the ball or until our parents called us home.
Simple things caught my attention as I walked home at the end of the day, such as how the sun painted the clouds and sky shades of purple, red and gold as it vanished behind the horizon, how perfectly planted rows of burgundy, green, red, orange, brown and yellow trees colored the sides of the streets, how crickets, which I never could find, chirped all day and all night long, how the distorted notes and drum beats of a high school marching band reached my ears from miles away, and how glowing jack-o-lanterns peered, menacingly, toward me from neighborhood porches.
I am older and, arguably, more mature, but I still love all of these things. I now understand why the clouds and leaves change colors, where the marching band plays and where the chirping crickets hide. And I know that a glowing jack-o-lantern is just a personified fruit. But during the fall, I forget these realizations, and I can't help but experience things innocently and excitedly, as I did when I was young.

out of my private parking ticket, but if it were within my power, you would receive two. Because of your bull-headed, inconsiderate, feeble attempt at parking, you have taken enough room for a 20-mule team, 2 elephants, 1 goat and a safari of pygmies from the African interior. The reason for giving you this is so that in the future you may think of someone else other than yourself. Besides, I don't like domineering, egotistical or simple-minded drivers, and you probably fit into one of these categories.

As a writer, there is nothing I value more, and I encourage others to appreciate this freedom and put it to use in their lives. We need it if we are to grow as individuals, as a nation and as a global community.

The person to whom this message was addressed happens to be from Africa. He is a person of good will who has come to the University of Kansas to enrich with his knowledge and experience the mental atmosphere of our community.
This person has gone through the trouble of learning English so he could communicate with the KU community. Would it not have been easier and more effective to go to this person and talk with him as intelligent adults should do when trying to solve problems of human relations?

A strong hatred, clothed in mental matter, can return to its creator charged with the energy of the hated person and can thus work havoc in the life of the sender. Hate always returns where it came from. And so does love. The choice is ours.
But what truly preoccupies me about this hate note is what its author does not seem to realize. I am not going to advocate that KU or the city of Lawrence establish hate laws. There is a higher law that supersedes any hate laws that our legislators might establish in our land; it is the unwritten universal Law of Love. This law does not need law-enforcement officers; it enforces itself. It is, ipso facto, more powerful.

From Joseph Conrad's Heart of Darkness to Tarzan to the attitude reflected in this note, the pygmies and other African peoples have been flooded in a deluge of negative stereotypes. So powerful are these stereotypes in the minds of many people in the so-called developed countries that many times I find myself answering questions such as, "You said you were born in Africa? Are you from the capital of Africa? Do you speak African, that dialect of yours, you know? How can you read and write a real language like English? Why do you wear clothes? I know you guys live in trees; who did you leave your tree with?" And when I ask my interlocutors how they found out all these enlightening things about me, they deplore my cultural ignorance with the recommendation, "Boy, you really need to see Tarzan!"
We are not free if we are motivated by hate. True freedom is the freedom of the mind and the heart from the thrall of hate for whatever reason. The soul thus freed can express its true life in our increasingly interdependent world. This is how I understand freedom of speech and of the press.
There is a depth of truth in the ancient aphorism: "Curses, like chickens, come home to roost." Unless this is how we want to live, let's re-examine our attitude toward our fellow human beings.

Cancer lives on in survivors' thoughts
Continued from page 1A
Facing death
Physically removing the cancer from Barbuto's and Laughlin's bodies did not take it out of their lives. A fear of death plagued both of them throughout their battle.
**Symptoms of breast cancer**
- A lump or thickening in or near the breast or in the underarm area.
- A change in the size or shape of the breast.
- A discharge from the nipple.
- A change in the color or feel of the skin of the breast, areola or nipple (dimpled, puckered or scaly).

- A dull ache in the lower abdomen or the groin.
- A sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum.
- Pain or discomfort in a testicle or in the scrotum.
- Enlargement or tenderness of the breasts.
Laughlin said that she had thought people did not have to face death until they were older,but sometimes death is closer than they think.

"I did a lot of churchgoing." he said. "I became more devout."
Harbuto confronted his fear through religion.

"They are dreaming dreams," she said. "They are just starting out in the phase of what they are going to be. Cancer really interrupts this phase."
Younger patients have difficulties putting their lives on hold to battle cancer, she said.

Teresa Long, director of consultation of psychiatry at the Med Center, said that cancer also disturbed the belief held by many young adults that they had their whole lives to have children. Young adult cancer patients are forced to take action to secure their dreams.
Suzie Taylor, a facilitator for the breast cancer support group that Laughlin attends, said that dealing with cancer's emotional effects was especially difficult for younger patients.
"When you're in your teens or 20s, it's so much more riveting and gripping," Taylor said. "It's so much more unfair."
To cope with the possibility that chemotherapy could make him sterile, Barbuto saw a reproductive specialist and had his sperm frozen.
Laughlin, who already was a mother, found it difficult to fight cancer and raise her daughter.
"I don't even know if I wrote down her first crawl, her first word," she said. "I felt like I missed a lot."
Physical changes
Cancer treatment took its toll on Laughlin's young body.
Doctors had prescribed drugs to
reduce the nausea caused by chemotherapy. The drugs affected her memory.
"I was so out of it with the drugs. I didn't care that I didn't have any hair." Laughlin said.
Hair loss and a 30-pound weight gain, the result of medication, made Barbuto look like a different person.
While with his friends at a restaurant in Lawrence, Barbuto learned that a waitress who had served him in the past no longer recognized him. She said to someone in the group: "Your friend looks like Uncle Fester."
"That's Rich." his friend replied. Barbuto can find humor in the incident.
"It was pretty funny to see the reaction of the waitress," he said.
Social changes
Cancer also affected Laughlin's and Barbuto's friendships.
Laughlin was afraid to tell one of her closest friends about her dis-
"You don't want to burden people that age with that kind of problem." Laughlin said.
Barbuto said the experience showed him who his real friends were. His biggest shock came when his girlfriend decided that she could not cope with his cancer.
When they were together, she consistently brought up the name of another male friend. Barbuto eventually saw what was coming.
She had a hard time dealing with it," Barbuto said. "Her solution was not to deal with it."
Long, director of consultation of psychiatry at the Med Center, said that friends who abandoned a college cancer patient probably did not want a reminder that the disease could strike at such a young age.
Both Barbuto and Laughlin said that they did have friends who were there for them.
One of Laughlin's friends came to her house and cooked dinner after
each of Laughlin's chemotherapy treatments.
barbuto's pals often used humor to cope. More than once, they drank a toast to his missing testicle while they were out at a bar.
And some acquaintances gave him such solid support that they became his close friends.
Looking to the future
Although friendships may help young cancer victims through the rough moments of the disease, the battle never really ends.
"It's hard to stop thinking about the worst," Barbuto said. "I don't know if I have a tumor in my lung."
Barbuto still has to have blood tests and X-rays taken every two months to ensure that the cancer has not reappeared.
He has become cautious with health.
"I don't like going to smoky bars anymore," he said. "I cut way back on drinking. I eat healthier. I try not to put myself in a position where bad things can happen."
I wonder, if I had slowed down my drinking, would things be different?
Did I do it to myself?" she asked.
Laughlin worries that drinking heavily in her early college days may have put her at higher risk.
Now, she is more aware of her body.
"If I feel like something is wrong with my body, I get it checked out," she said.
And she gets angry when she sees college-age women ignoring their health.
Through it all— the surgery, the physical changes and the mental anguish— both Laughlin and Barbuto have endured and look hopefully toward the future.
Laughlin continues to teach at the University, and Barbuto is a junior at St. Mary College in Leavenworth where he is majoring in chemistry and biology. He is considering pursuing an advanced degree in brewery science.

Seeing the trees for the forest
One KU student ponders the little details in life despite the onslaught of modern information
story by dan curry photos by mike perryman
KNOWLEDGE
Bur Oak
Quercus macrocephala
Tree with the largest acorns of any native oak, stout trunk, often crooked, spreading branches. Leaves are broadest beyond the middle and lobed. They turn yellow or brown in fall.
Silver Maple
Acer saccharinum
Large tree with
short, stout
trunk, few large
forks, spreading,
open, irregular
crown of long,
curving branches,
and gracefully cut leaves.
It produces the paired,
winged seeds that
spin like helicopters.
Leaves are deeply
lobed and doubly saw
toothed. They turn yellow
in autumn. A few
Sugar Maples on campus have leaves that turn deep red, orange or yellow.
Svcamore
Sycamore Plantanus occidentalis
One of the largest eastern hardwoods, with an enlarged base, massive, straight trunk, and large, spreading, often crooked branches forming a broad, open crown. These trees produce brown, tuffy balls as fruit that matures in fall.
E
Cottonwood
Maple trees surround the Uncle Jimmy Green statue on Jayhawk Boulevard. Kelly Kindscher, a professor of biology at the University, thinks the average person should know the names of a few trees. "A major problem in our culture is that we no longer teach literature," he said. "Nature isn't as big a part of the curriculum as it should be."
Continuing
Populus deltoides or occidentalis large tree with a massive trunk often forked into stout branches, and broad, open crown of spreading and slightly drooping brances. Leaves are triangular, long-pointed with course teeth, becoming yellow in autumn.
Black Walnut
Block vrain
Juglans nigra
Large walnut tree with open, rounded crown of dark-green, aromatic foliage. Leaves are broadly lance-shaped, long-pointed and sawtoothed. The leaves turn yellow in autumn.
The fruit is thick-shelled green balls that squirrels crave.
Tomatoes and apples do not survive near mature trees.

Save a few sentimentalists and oddball naturalists, finding the names of trees is not a priority, even if the desire to learn exists. Without compelling environmental motives, the names of trees have become non-essential infor-
trees have become non-essential information.
An onslaught of information confronts us each day. We sift through facts and conflicting reports, foreign affairs, personal phone calls and scholarly gibberish. Increasing the load, modern communication networks make information ubiquitous, instantaneous — we stick trumpets in our ears and hold megaphones to our lips. We hear more people, and more people hear us.
I can't criticize anyone for imperfect acts of appreciation. Hazy questions about trees take a well-rested imagination to consider — contemplations that work, study and few hours of sleep make scarce.
Of course, we could learn the names with the purchase of a book or a walk on a nature trail, but what inhibits our learning isn't access to the information. It is our disinclination to bother.
Popular environmentalism, the primary way our generation has come to understand nature, has played itself out. I think that for most people, the discussion of eco-politics seems either too extremist or banal by now.
As much as I'd like to, I'm not going to join my local chapter of 'green' terrorists, don my camouflage and prowl the forest setting fire to skis resorts and driving steel
rods into redwood trees.
At least that has some pizzazz. Recycling and tree planting are the new chores of civic duty. But I surreptitiously drop Coke cans in the trash, knowing that I recycle less than I should, shunning the people who would remind me so.
The fact is, the trees in my front yard do a stand-up job of surviving without me. As someone who on occasion struggles through days without a flit of concern for other people, I am greatly pleased by their ability to take care of themselves.
Ladmire their self-reliance.
So why waste time finding the names of trees, if I'm not in the business of rescuing them? Certainly, I can walk down campus, or along the river, or drive back to Kansas City and see the trees in their autumn foliage and enjoy just the same, names or no names
Adam Roshenshield, Madison, Wis., junior, wearing shades and a bandanna in front of Strong Hall, agreed.
"I love trees," he said. "When you have big trees around, that makes everything else look nice."
But even this nature-lover couldn't identify the trees around him, and did not find it essential to know their names. He

confessed that he'd been known to
Theorist Mark Poster states in The Mode of Information that information channels "that have characterized modern society for some 200 years are being shaken by the earthquake of electronically mediated communication."
Information overload
The names were extraneous
For this reason, what we may recall of a name, maple for example, will tend to be the larger idea. The word maple to us is a tree — not the specifics that make a such a tree unique.
But perhaps I shouldn't complain. Some think we'll be OK in this new environment — those who survive the information flood will be a new breed of multivalent thinkers, people able to cogitate on more than one level at a time.
To thrive, we must become technology virtuosos, not outback survivalists, so while we learn Word on our computers, reasonably, we abandon the names of trees.

Fall memories
More reflection on the changing seasons.
See page 4A
To use the terms of theorists Deleuze and Guattari, we were once "arboreal" beings, like trees rooted in time and space, relying on other people and our own five senses for news. Now we are information nomads — siphons who can gather facts fast, floating around the globe with a flutter of our fingers. We no longer need to BE anywhere. We just need to be wired in.
Yet for a few of us, being wired in isn't enough. Kelly Kindscher is one of these people. He has an orchard on his property, and not only that, he's a rare being who can name each of his trees
Kindscher is a plant community ecologist working for the Kansas Biological Survey and a professor of biology at the University of Kansas. Part of his job is creating inventories of exactly what plants grow in our state.
So the man knows his trees. And then some.
The problem is that no one else does. "I think the average person would know the names of a few trees," Kindscher said. "A major problem in our culture is that we no longer teach nature literacy. Nature isn't as big a part of the curriculum as it should be."
Kindscher thinks the lack of consciousness about plants that inhibits our understanding of nature.
"We've really disturbed the landscape," he said. "We no longer live close to the land."
Knowing the names of things is the first step, Kindscher said, but we need to change the way we look at the natural world.
"I think if you want to get to our environmental problems, you need to know what is under our feet," he said.
Local offerings
Crystal Miles, landscape supervisor for Lawrence's Parks and Forestry Department, knows just what's under our feet and all around.
The trees that line downtown, for instance, are Rosehill Ash, Greensfield Linden, Washington Hawthorn and Ivory Silk, a tree imported from Japan, she said.
"When we buy trees, we request that they be labeled," she said.
Temporary help often can't identify the plants, so the labels allow them to keep track of what and where things are planted. Miles said they need to know the identity of the tree to know how to take care of it properly.
James Hartman, English professor, said knowing true definitions links us to our environs.
Miles said her department places a great deal of importance on the nomenclature of plants.
Alas, scientists and groundskeepers aren't the only ones who have the forest figured out.
But now we hear the word "sycamore" and we know it means a species of tree, certainly, but many of us won't envision the broad, green leaves and dappled trunk of the true sycamore. The word has lost some of its specificity, something that occurs naturally in language.
"Kansas trees seem to get black in the fall or winter. They seem really black against the sky," she said. "The skies here can some times look like waves of sand — actually I know a lot about trees. It's useful to know if you're in the arts. If you are in the arts, really, you automatically understand what's around you."
Carolyn Doty, English professor and novelist, is at work on a Kansas ghost story. In her novel, the protagonist is a painter intrigued by the colors of the local trees.
But for those not artistically inclined, a dictionary can serve as a directory to the world around you. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, "Sycamore" has survived in more or less the same form since its first recorded use in 492 A.D. Being derived ultimately from the Greek word 'sukomoros,' the word was used in the bible to refer to a Grecian fig tree. The names "oak" and "maple" both have roots in Old English, the language
spoken in England a thousand years ago.
Hartman teaches classes about the nature and history of the English language and has edited several dictionaries.
"Knowing words is a good
Hartman said he could identify his trees in his front yard purple ash and silver maple—but for him, words, or the names of things, connect us both to our world and other people.
sign that you have paid thoughtful attention to their referents," he said.
"Knowing words helps communicate your thoughts and feelings more exactly to other people, thus giving you some potential influence on the world and making you less isolated than perhaps you might be otherwise," he said.
Comforting calm
I won't claim knowing the names of trees will cure any
alls, or save any trees—nothing that drastic. We're uprooted now, and it is most likely a condition we must learn to live with.
But I will say this. There is a path in South Park that winds its way by the swing sets and a fire engine and the wading pool with the concrete dolphin. Weekends, when the night has ended, I have been one of many figures of dejection stumbling home from downtown on this path. I smell like smoke and my money is missing. I conduct an interior cross-examination on the way home, escaping conviction but not the sentence. Call it a recurring case of self-inflicted cynicism.
On other nights I have walked at a different pace, still a far cry from sober, but steadier all the same, pointing out to a friend that the trees to the left of us are sycamores, and that ones up the middle are maples, and those framed in the streetlight there are the walnuts.
The image shows a dense collection of trees, with varying shades of green and brown. The trees are closely packed together, creating a natural corridor-like structure. In the foreground, there is a road that runs parallel to the trees, and a car parked on one side. The background consists of more trees and possibly some buildings, although they are not clearly visible in this image.
Even alone, I've privately called their roll as I passed beneath them and felt an uncanny comfort in the act. It earned me a moment of being located, as if by the trees I had determined, momentarily, where I was.
The names of trees then, or of anything steadfast and damn-near true, are nothing less than means of navigation. I've been lost before in a forest, but my names have yet to fail me.
Various trees, including cottonwoods, line the neighborhood streets around campus.

Commentary Chill of winter brings variety of predictions for sports season
A little more than a week ago, when the sun was still warm and the sky was still summer blue, I boldly predicted that Kansas was in for a tropical winter.
Basing my prediction on the lingering effects of El Niño combined with continued global warming (mixed with quite a bit of self-delusion as well), I foresaw a winter of fun in the sun — Jamaica, just without the beaches.
But, like most of my predictions, I appear to have failed miserably. When I stepped out my door a couple of mornings ago, I looked at the dark gray sky and took a deep breath, inhaling nothing but cold winter air. It looks as if we are in for another six months of Hoth-like conditions. Wonderful.
So as I prepare for bibernation, I leave you with with some sports fat to gnaw on...
The Philadelphia Eagle's offense was truly an exercise in futility Monday night against Dallas.
I can't remember the last time I witnessed such offensive ineptness by a football team from the first play to the last. You almost had to think that Oklahoma coach John Blake was calling the plays.

With third-year man Bobby Hoying at the helm, I would be surprised if the Eagles win another game, even against Washington.
Speaking of Monday Night Football, has anyone noticed how Dan Dierdorf repeatedly clowns Boomer Esiason on-air every week? What's with that?
Last week, Dierdorf claimed he was going to dress as Boomer for Halloween because it would "frighten all the children." And that isn't the only barb Dierdorf has gotten into. There hasn't been a broadcast this year that Dierdorf has not found some way to punk his newly hired colleague.
Weekend's Best Halloween Costume: the guy dressed as the KU campus masturbator.
It seems that Dierdorf, after years of being the butt of Al Michaels and Frank Gifford's jokes, has finally found someone he can pick on.
Rattif is an Norman, Okla., senior in journalism.
Dressed in all black, wearing a shirt reading "Sex Crimes Unit" and a name tag buttoned to his chest, this guy's costume was by far the most original outfit I saw, not to mention the most classless.
What can you say, celebrities make great costumes.
I think I saw Kerry Collins at the Jazzzhaus lastnight...
After two consecutive losses at Arrowhead, the Kansas City Chiefs' season is looking eerily similar to the one two seasons ago when they failed to make the playoffs. With two games still left against Denver, it's hard to believe that Kansas City will do any better than 9-7, with 8-8 a very real possibility.
The problem may be with who is lining up behind center. In his two injury-plagued seasons with Kansas City, Elvis Grbac has looked like a real good Steve Bono.
I have two words for Coach Marty: "The Cannon."
Has anyone seen Derrick Thomas lately?
I received a letter last week that accused me of being "jealous" of Kansas State's gridiron success. It went on to blaber about how my constant public badgering of their nouveau riche program was giving Kansas a bad name in the world of sportsmanship. It was signed "Rock Chalk."
First off, Mr. Rock Chalk, I believe you got "jealousy" and "absolute hatred" confused. Secondly, if you ever want to be taken seriously, sign your real name.

Jayhawks win first exhibition game
Kansas women play physical against rougher Slovokian team
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Ignore the score
Sure, Kansas beat Myjava Slovakia 76-64 in a women's exhibition basketball game last night at Allen Field House, but that's not the important thing to coach Marian Washington.
Exhibition games are for learning, which is exactly what Washington did as she watched the Slovakians keep it close until the game's final minutes.
"We all realize there's a lot we need to do on defense," she said. "We did a lot of little things not very well, but that's not a big surprise. They know what they have to do to improve."
That's practice, practice, practice.
"Defensively, we kind of broke down but we'll work on that," said junior Lynn Pride, who led all scorers with 21 points. "We need to work on our team defense, our offense will come."
The offense did come early as the Jayhawks broke out to a 17-6 lead five minutes into the game. That run had to be reassuring to Washington because it included six points from senior Suzi Raymant.
Playing her first game since tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee, Raymant scored 19 points and dished out five assists in 34 minutes, including 14 points in the first-half.
"The first half, I didn't feel it at all." she said of the knee. "Only right near the end I felt it. It just got kind of weak."
Washington shied away from extensively using the
team's new offense. The Jay hawks ran mostly set plays, instead of a recently installed motion offense.
"I can tell you we're not really comfortable with it yet," Pride said. "We'll just have to continue to get the feel of it."
The Jayhawks spent much of the game getting the feel of some Slovakian elbows. Traditionally, international teams play more physically than Americans, and last night's game was no exception.
Words and elbows alike were exchanged, though the language barrier kept the Jayhawks from knowing what was being said.
"It's hard to move Nakia around," Washington said. "She's bigger and a lot more physical."
"I couldn't really understand them, but the elbow has its own language," said center Nakia Sanford. "I'm going to be black and blue tomorrow. I don't think anybody we play will be that physical."
The Jayhawks next action will be their last exhibition game. They play host to Latvia-Club Riga at 7:05 p.m Wednesday.
Referees have instructed coaches that more hand checks will be whistled this season in an effort to cut down on rough play, but Pride said she had yet to see a change.
"The Big 12 officials came and told us how they were going to call it more closely to keep the contact down," she said. "But as you could see out there, it wasn't like that. It was kind of frustrating."
One Jayhawk who seemed to thrive on the intense contact was the 6-3 Sanford.

Injured player still helps basketball team to victory
By Matthew Friedrichs
Kansan sports editor
Kansas guard Suzi Raymant iced her opponents in the first half, then iced her knee after the game last night.
The 5-11 senior scored 14 points leading all scorers in the first half of Kansas' 76-64 victory against Myjava Slovakia at Allen Field House.
The game was the first of the season for the Jayhawks. It also was Raymant's first game after surgery in April to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee.
Raymant finished with 19 points on six of 10 shooting.
"Suzi looked great offensively," said Coach Marian Washington.
Washington said it was obvious that Raymant was still uncertain how her knee would holdup when she moved laterally.
She said that doctors had told her that it would take about a year to fully recover.
Raymant, with an ice pack on her left knee, admitted after the game that she was only about 85 percent.
She played 19 minutes in the first half and 15 more in the second half. She only scored five points in the second half, all on free throws.
"I saw her tentative defensively." Washington said.
She attributed her lower output in the second half to Myjava's physical defense and to tiring.
"My leg's not as strong as it was," she said.
Her 19 points and 34 minutes were both above her season averages of 14.1 points and 32
minutes last season.
Raymant scored driving to the basket, hit two of three threepoint shots and had five assists.
Forward Brooke Reves played in her first game as a Jayhawk after sitting out last season as a transfer from Wichita State.
"It's been a long time since I've been on the floor," she said.
Reves, whose sister Amanda Reves plays for the Kansas volleyball team, had one assist in 9 minutes. She was the only Jayhawk newcomer to play significant minutes.
Center Heather Fletcher played 12 minutes for the Jayhawks and was in the game at the end.
Fletcher, who averaged one point and four minutes in only 13 games last season, scored seven points and played 12 minutes.
With the game in doubt with 4:04 left to play, she scored a basket and gave the Jayhawks a 62-58 lead.
Fletcher hit a free throw with 3:10 left, making the score 64-40, and she grabbed a couple of key rebounds for the Jayhawks.
With Wegner out, team fills holes in roster
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas head football coach Terry Allen is a tough man, except when it comes to blood.
I wasn't wegner's only injury, though. He also suffered a gash to the middle finger of his left hand when the helmets of two K-State players crushed the finger during the hit that knocked him unconscious.
During Saturday's 54-6 shellacking by the Kansas State Wildcats, quarterback Zac Wegner left the game with a concussion for the second time in two weeks.
"It was boom, boom, helmet and then those helmets hit again and his finger was in there." Allen said.
It wasn't Wegner's only injury, though
And when Allen traveled out to check on his player, he got more of a show than he had bargained for.
"I'm not real good with blood, and I went out and he was unconscious and lying there," Allen said. "His finger was ripped open so that you could see the bone of the finger sticking out there, and the finger-nail rolled back, and you've got the blood spurting out of there. I almost fainted."
The first one was last spring when Wenger was jumped in the parking lot of the GSP-Corbin residence halls. He was knocked unconscious and suffered a concussion in the incident. He later suffered a concussion in both the Colorado and K-State games.
Wegner had already fainted, but because of the hit, not because of his finger.
This concussion is the third he has suffered in the last year.
"That first concussion is the one that exposes him to more concussions," Allen said. "Both of the concussions in the football game have not been from hitting his head on the turf. Both of them have been head-to-head helmets."
This leaves the Kansas football team with quite a challenge — finding someone to play backup
Wegner's backup, junior Jay Alexander, has officially assumed the starting quarterback position but that
leaves him without a replacement.
If Alexander has to leave the game for a short period of time, Allen plans to play freshman Henri Childs.
KO
"Henri did play a little quarterback in high school," Allen said. "None of the other running backs have played quarterback, and he's a kid with the knowledge of the running back position. Basically, it's natural for him from the quarterback position."
Or any position on offense, that is.
So far this season, Childs has played running back, wide receiver and tight end and returns both punts and kickoffs.
"Whatever gets me on the field," Childs said. "I've already played tight end, running back and wide receiver ... I just love to play football."
If Alexander suffers a season-ending injury like Wegner's, though. Allen will go with freshman Jonas Weatherbie, who has yet to take a snap in college.
But Allen said he would prefer not to use Weatherbie because it would cost the true freshman his redshirt year.
"We hope we don't have to make that type of decision, obviously," Allen said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday: Nov. 5
Money is pivotal this year. Truth is, this is seed money. You're planting it, to harvest later and that's the key. Resist the temptation to gamble, especially in December. Invest in your career instead. Opportunities are plentiful from January through April. The work is tough in May, and rewards are not apparent until June. You'll gain more esteem by August, and it may be September before you can really relax.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 7.
Continue to push yourself hard. You could be in a work situation that's rather stressful, but don't despair. Although it seems like this will go on forever, it's a temporary condition. Make the most of it. You can get something that may not be available again for a while, so move quickly.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
There's something you need to say that you've been hesitating about. It's the truth, and you have the facts to support it, but you didn't want to upset the other person. Don't be like that. It's more upsetting to let this go unsaid. Clear the air so you can clear your books and get on to other things.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
There's pressure on you at work. You're using your imagination to solve problems even more quickly than usual, but today they'll be throwing things at you hot and heavy. If you focus on your objective, you can figure out what needs to be done. Don't be intimidated.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
There's a financial decision to be made, involving other people, not just yourself. If you can't ask for a raise at work, think of another way to generate income. There's a job that needs to be done, and you know the person who can do it.
Act as the broker and you'll be generously rewarded.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
Today, acknowledge the people who have been working so hard for you. They need the recognition. Also, make sure they're strong enough to make it on their own You don't want them dependent on you. The burden of making the decisions for them would slow you down.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 5.
Things will not go as planned today. Expect the unexpe-
pected and watch out for delays. A person who's been
giving you orders may do a 180 degree turn and expect
something different. There are certainly a lot of challenges,
but don't despair. The day won't be boring, that's for sure.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
You'd love to get away, but for some reason you can't. Is it a financial consideration? If there's a class you want to take, but you're afraid you can't afford it, run out the numbers one more time. If this could be an investment in your career, maybe it's deductible.
Money is tight, but it's by your own choosing. You're investing in something that's going to pay off later. At least, what you want to be doing. Be careful, however. No risky ventures allowed. Only do something you're sure is going to work, because you're going to make it happen.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
You and your favorite adversary could get into a great battle of wits today. However, the two of you are pretty evenly matched. It looks like somebody else is listening in; someone who is not necessarily on your side. Don't tip your hand in a negotiation.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
People will be more willing to talk now than usual. Be especially careful about what you say. You're good at planning ahead. You and your friend could have a meeting to decide what you're going to do next, but only discuss your plans in private. The walls could have ears.
P
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
This could be a good day for romance. If you're like most Aquarians, you fall in love with a person's mind first. Somebody who stirs you by getting you motivated or giving you new ideas — that's what turns you on. If so, definitely set up a date for dinner.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 5.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 3.
Looks like there are some changes that you've been thinking about, and you can't put them off much longer. Tonight, conditions are good for storing things up a bit. In fact, it looks like an explosion is going on at your place. That could be you, doing your fall preholiday cleaning. Have a great time while you're at it.

Loss of center challenges Texas Tech
More shooting, unity key for women's team
By Sam Mellinger
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The biggest obstacle for the Texas Tech women's basketball team is obvious. The Lady Raiders must find a way to replace the 23,2 points per game that center Alicia Thompson averaged last season before becoming the ninth selection in the WNBA draft.
Coach Marsha Sharp said she hoped guards Rene Hanebutt and Julie Lake could join forces with All-American candidate Angle Braziel to fill in much of that gap. The Lady Raiders have traditionally relied on post players to score, but Sharp said she thought that might change this year with Thompson's departure from the middle.
("Braziel) and Rene really had to understand that we had to give Alicia as many touches as possible the past two seasons, but now they know
they have to pick up the scoring load," Sharp said.
"They need to be scorers rather than passers."
Hanebutt and Lake also will need to improve on their 10 point scoring averages. Even in a post-first offense the last three years, Hanebutt has pulled 430 three-pointers, hitting 41 percent. Hanebutt said it didn't take much to convince her to shoot the ball.
"She just had to tell me one, and I was like 'OK, I can do that,'" Hanebutt said. "For us to be successful, we're going to have to pull the trigger more. But it's not going to be one person or even two, it's going to have to be all five that are on the court."
One way the Lady Raiders hope to score is by quick-striking their opposition.
"We've got to get out and run," Sharp said. "This is probably the fastest team we coached."
Perhaps the fastest Lady Raider is also the tallest. At 6-3, Braziel has speed not often possessed by post players.
"She can get from one end to the other faster than most in the country," Sharp said. "She really wants to jump over people."
Teaming up with Braziel in the post will be Kei-
tha Dickerson, Aleah Johnson and Cara Gibbs.
Johnson is a junior after an All-American career at South Plains Junior College, where she played with Brazil her freshman year.
"She was great," Braziel said. "She's a really aggressive player."
Texas Tech will need Johnson to help erase the memory of how last season ended. The Lady Raiders earned their first-ever No. 1 seed in the tournament by winning the Big 12 title, but fell to Notre Dame at home in the second round.
"I think about the Notre Dame game everyday, it was the most disturbing and upsetting loss of my career," said Hanebutt. "Two months after it happened, people were still upset about it."
Motivated by the loss, the entire team stayed in Lubbock during the summer to workout.
"The chemistry and unity with this team is better than it has ever been," Hanebutt said. "The better you get along together, the better you're going to play together."
Texas Tech was picked second in the preseason Big 12 coaches' poll. The Lady Raiders play Kansas in Lawrence on Jan. 23.
Six new players to help lead Red Raiders
By Kevin Wilson
Associate sports editor
Despite being picked to finish ninth in the Big 12 Conference, Texas Tech men's basketball coach James Dickey is eager to begin the 1998-99 season.
"We're excited about being back on the court," Dickey said. "We have five returning players with
our backcourt intact with Rayford Young and Stan Bonewitz. We also have six new players that are certainly going to change the complexion of out team."
After an impressive start, the Red Raiders stumbled down the stretch last season, losing six of their last seven, to finish 13-14 overall and 7-9 in the Big 12 Conference.
Dickey, who is in his eighth season at Texas Tech, pointed to a number of areas that the Red Raiders would need to improve.
SANDY MCKINNEY
improve.
Dickey: Says team chemistry key to success this season
"Last year, we relied too much on the three-point shot and that certainly went downhill the last part of the season," Dickey said. "We have to go back to some things that we did well before and didn't do."
well last year that defend and rebounding. And the last thing that is going to be critical, with our team, with so many new players is chemistry."
Texas Tech junior Rayford Young said that he was impressed with the newcomers' progress.
Despite returning four starters, Dickey must find a replacement for last season's Big 12 scoring leader and Texas Tech's third all-time leading scorer Cory Carr.
Gory was such an important part of our program," Dickey said. "We've got to be more balanced this year because of the loss of his great production. We've also got to step up to replace the leadership, attitude and chemistry that he provided."
Dickey will likely look to his experienced back-court to fill the void left by Carr, who was selected in the second round of the NBA Draft.
The duo of Young and senior Stan Bonewitz started all 27 games last season, accounted for almost 40 percent of Texas Tech's offense and ranked 1-2 in assists and steals for the Red Raiders.
The versatile 6-foot-3 Bonewit averaged 12.9 points per game last season and tied for second on
the team in rebounding with 4.9 per game. He ranked second in the league in three-point made per game (3.1) and three-point percentage (41.8) last season.
The ultra-quick 5-foot-11-inch Young is the leading returning scorer for Texas Tech with an average of 15.4 points per game. In addition, Young paced the Red Raiders with 116 assists and 46 steals and ranked second with an 84.3 free-throw percentage.
The frontcourt, which struggled last season, returns two starters and could improve dramatically if some highly touted newcomers can produce.
Junior forward Cliff Owens appears ready to become a major force in the Big 12 this season after an impressive sophomore campaign. The 6-foot-8 inch bruiser averaged 10.2 points and grabbed a team-high 7.7 rebounds per game last season, which tied him for sixth in the league.
Also returning to the Texas Tech frontcourt is 6-foot-10-inch sophomore Johnny Phillips, who became only the ninth freshman to start for Dickey. He started 15 games and finished the season averaging 5.2 points and 3.0 rebounds per game.
Four newcomers, including three junior college transfers, will provide depth and athleticism to the Red Raiders frontcourt.
Dickey said that despite the teams low ranking, he is looking forward to proving people wrong.

NORTH ATTLEBORO, Mass.
— New England cornerback Chris Canty was arrested yesterday when officers noticed him in a parked car with an open container.
Canty was arrested at about 2:30 a.m. EST in the parking lot of a Merit gas station in North Attleboro. He did not enter a plea and his case was continued to Nov. 17 in North Attleboro District Court. He was released on personal recognizance.
Canty, 22, said he was waiting to meet someone when he dozed off. He said there was an open bottle of beer near the passenger side of the rear seat.
Canty passed a sobriety test at the scene, North Attleboro police officer Michael Elliott said.
He was charged with operating a motor vehicle after his license to operate was suspended, operating while drinking alcohol, operating without a license and operating without an inspection sticker.
Canty said he was released after paying an overdue speeding ticket he had received during summer training camp, although the court clerk's office said it had no knowledge of that.
Canty was the Patriots' first round draft pick last year and became a starter this season.
TOPEKA — A funny thing happened to Wichita Southeast and Wichita Northwest on their way to the Class 6A high school football playoffs.
High school rankings shift
The Associated Press
Southeast, rated No. 1 last week,
and Northwest, ranked No. 2, both
lost in their regular season finales
and failed to make the playoffs.
2
That led to a big shakeup in 6A in the final Associated Press consensus rankings of Kansas prep teams.
Garden City, a 49-12 winner against Hutchinson, replaced Southeast at No.1 and Derby, which defeated Wichita Southeast, 21-8, moved into second place in the final listings. Olathe North, a 36-22 victor against Olathe East, claimed third. Wichita Northwest's season ended in a 10-7 loss to Wichita West.
Only other change of note in the final AP ratings came in Class 5A, where Fort Scott lost, 24-21, to Pittsburg and fell out of the rankings. Liberal remained unanimous No. 1 in 5A after beating Wichita Campus, 50-0.
Other unanimous No. 1 choices in the final rankings were Topeka Hayden in 4A, Smith Center in 3A, Claflin in 2-1A and Little River in Eight-Man I — all unbeaten heading into the playoffs.
AP consensus rankings are an average of ratings by the Hutchinson News, Salina Journal, Topeka Capital-Journal and Wichita Eagle.
1. Garden City, 7-2. 2. Derby, 8-1.
2. Olathe North, 7-2. 4. Wichita Southeast, 8-1. 5. Wichita West, 7-2.

"Serious Drinks for Drinking Seriously"
Seven records perfect in college football
Entering the final weeks of the college football season, seven major schools have perfect records
The Associated Press
from No. 1 Ohio State to coNo. 15 Tulane.
OHIO STATE
According to the oddsmakers, Saturday's results won't lower the fig.
ure, with No. 11 Arkansas (7-0) the only single-digit favorite among the group. The Razorbacks are 9 1/2-point favorites against Mississippi.
Tennessee (7-0), which plays Alabama-Birmingham in Knoxville, leads the pushover parade as
C
42- point favorites against the Blazers. Top-ranked Ohio State (8-0) and No. 4 Kansas
The way the schedule plays out, six of the seven can finish the regular-season unbeaten. Arkansas and Tennessee meet Nov. 14 and could meet again in the SEC title game Dec. 5.
State (8-0) are four-TD favorites against Michigan State and Baylor, respectively, while Minnesota gets 18 points from No. 8 Wisconsin (8-0) and Oregon State 17 1/2 from No. 3 UCLA (7-0). Tulane (7-0) is a 17-point favorite against Memphis.
Don't hold your breath waiting for lots of perfect finishes.
The last time more than three teams were perfect entering the postseason was 1979, with Alabama, Brigham Young, Florida State, McNeese State and Ohio State. Alabama won the '79 national title.
Virginia lost bowl games and Auburn was ineligible for the postseason.
SYRACUSE
UNIVERSITY
1.8.7.0
On Saturday, No. 6 Florida State and co-No. 15 Syracuse can take huge steps toward conference titles and automatic Bowl Championship Series' bids.
The Seminoles (8-1, 5-1 ACC) play host to No. 12 Virginia (7-1, 5-1) and look to take control of the ACC. Florida State, led by the nation's second-ranked defense (216.4 yards per game) and the quick-strike duo of Chris Weinke and Peter Warrick, is tied with Virginia and Georgia Tech for the league lead.
Syracuse (5-2, 3-0 Big East) needs a win against fading West Virginia (4-3,1-2) to stay ahead of Virginia Tech and Miami in the conference. The road won't get easier for the Orangemen, who still have to play the Hokies and Hurricanes.

Starting QB position handed off to Bills' Flutie
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. — Doug Flutie has the job - he is the starting quarterback of the Buffalo Bills.
"Iknow the question; the answer is Doug Flutie," Bills coach Wade Phillips said yesterday. He added that injured Rob Johnson is now the No. 2 quarterback.
"Rob will be working his way back as the backup and that's where we are." Phillips said.
Phillips said Flutie's performance coupled with Johnson's absence made the decision easy.
The Bills appointed Johnson the starter last winter even before he signed a $25 million, 5-year contract. Flutie earns about $250,000 a year, the NFL minimum.
Flutie, the top-rated passer in the AFC and sec
Phillips said he explained the situation to both quarterbacks and Johnson was handling it well.
ond in the league to Minnesota's Randall Cunningham, has played since Johnson was injured against the Colts on Oct. 11. The Bills have won five games in a row, including a 26-21 victory against the 49ers engineered by Johnson on Oct. 4.
"He has showed a lot of maturity that I wasn't sure he had," Phillips said.

Students not sold on supplements
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
Book buy-back time arrives in a few weeks.
Some University of Kansas students will find it hard to sell their books, even though they are needed for classes next semester. Blame some of the confusion in the second-hand book market on textbook bundling practices in which some publishers package textbooks with supplements like compact discs, solution manuals and cas settes, said Lawrence bookstore owners.
Every book carries a certain number called the International Standard Book Number or the ISBN, which identifies the book, said Bill Getz, assistant store manager of the KU Bookstores.
When a certain textbook is bundled with a supplement, its ISBN changes, even though the basic textbook is the same.
During buy-back, bookstores buy only those books with ISBNs that match the ISBNs on the database of the next semester's books.
STUDENT CD
ramester's books.
If a book a professor always has
designed is suddenly packaged with
supplements, the bookstore own-
er may not know the book is the
source because of the different ISBN
publisher. Unless the bookstore con-
tains that the book is the same
with the professor and publisher,
and unless they update the ISBN
numbers, the ISBNs won't match.
Without the update, book buy-backs
don't take place, Getz said.
What makes matters worse is that
these supplements are often not used
by students, said Keith Keilman, text-
book department manager of Jayhawk Bookstore, 1420 Crescent Road.

"My plea to colleagues is to ask about the price before ordering these books."

"It's all in the book. Why do we have to pay for these supplements when everything else in college is so expensive?"

KU alumna to lecture about Sesame Street
For 30 years, Big Bird and the gang from Sesame Street have remained childhood icons.
The Academic Services Staff Develop ment committee hopes to bring students, faculty and staff together today to reflect on the popular children's television program at a lecture given by Rosemarie Truglio, director of research for Sesame Street.
The lecture, titled "Television: The Other Family Member," will be at 10:30 at the Pioneer room in the Kansas Union.
Truglio received her doctorate in Developmental and Child Psychology from the University of Kansas.
Mary Ryan, committee chairman and director of the office of New Student Orientation, said the lecture was not directed just to parents, but to anyone who was curious about the behind-the-scenes operations of the program.
"I think the nice thing we can do is bring in experts like this," she said. "Those people attending the program might not have children, but it is nice to hear from a graduate of KU that's going out there and doing something so positive."
Truglio is expected to address facts, myths and concerns surrounding the effects of television on children.
Ryan said she was not sure how many people to expect for the lecture.
"We have between 30 and 40 people RSVP, but it is difficult to predict how many people will actually be there," she said. "It seems like a pretty hot topic right now."

Yearbook sittings cost $1 for non-purchasers
This year, students who want their picture taken for the 1998-1999 Jayhawker Yearbook will have to pay a $1 sitting fee if they do not purchase a yearbook.
Cale Apple, assistant editor, said that the yearbook had charged a $1 siting fee in previous years, but not during the last two years.
Apple said that the yearbook had changed photography companies this
year and that it was the new company's policy to charge a $1. sitting fee to students who did not purchase a yearbook. This is its policy for all universities for which it shoots yearbook photos.
Apple also said that the $1 sitting fee was an incentive for students to buy the yearbook.
Yearbooks are $30 each.
1998-1999 Jayhawker photos will take place at Ekdahl Dishings Commons from 12:30 to 2 p.m. and 4 to 7 p.m. today.
12.40 at the Strong Hall Rotunda from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 4 to 7 p.m.
Yearbook photos will resume Nov. 9-12 at the Strong Hall Rotunda from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and from 4 to 7 p.m.

Lawrence Police arrested four homeless Lawrence residents in the 900 block of Louisiana Street after police found them camping in an unoccupied house.
Police arrived at the house about 3 p.m. following a report by the owner, who was preparing to sell the home, that the people were on the property.
The four transients, two 19-year-olds and two 18-year-olds, were arrested after police determined that one of them had stolen a fire extinguisher, police said.
the police placed them in the Douglas County Jail at 3:36 p.m., and charged them with burglary of a dwelling, theft and criminal damage to property, jail authorities reported.
Police said the transients were arrested for burglary and for entering the house without permission of the owner.

Ground beef recalled; E. coli's presence feared
OMAHA, Neb. — More than half a million pounds of ground beef in 33 states have been recalled because the meat might contain a deadly strain of E. coli.
IBP officials said Wednesday a sample of beef taken Oct. 22 from its Dakota City plant was tested by a distributor before being sent to a supermarket and found to be tainted with E. coll.
About 7 percent went directly to consumers, sold in generic retail tubes labeled "Ground Beef (20 percent fat)" or "Ground Beef (27 percent fat)" with the product code: EST 245C SELL/FREEZE BY NOV 09 B.
IBP said the bacteria presented no danger as long as the meat was cooked thoroughly.

Aid resumes to Sarajevo; non-Muslims to return
SARAJEVO, Bosnia-Herzegovina — The European Union is resuming aid to
The 15-nation EU and the U.S. Agency for International Development suspended construction assistance worth about $20 million. They wanted to pressure city officials to allow the return of 20,000 non-Muslims to their prewar homes.
Although still disappointed with the number of non-Muslims returning to the Muslim-held city, Carlos Westendorp, Bosnia's senior international administrator, decided to recommend the lifting of suspension, said in a statement from his office.
temperatures extreme before Swissair crash
ZURICH, Switzerland — Temperatures rose to 572 degrees without leaving traces of fire in the cockpit and part of the first-class section of Swissair Flight 111 before it crashed, an in-house staff publication of the airline said yesterday.
There still is no indication of the source of the heat, said the publication News. It described as pure speculation theories that a fire was caused by an electrical short that ignited insulation material.
The MD-11 airliner flying from New York to Geneva crashed Sept. 2 off the coast of Canada, killing all 229 people aboard.
The area involved would have extended into the first-class section, the front row of which was a little more than 27 feet back from the nose, according to Canadian documents.
Previous reports have said the temperature was high enough to damage plastic, but the newsletter gave the first indication of just how hot it was.
U.N. wants compliance; Iraq not planning on it
UNITED NATIONS — The U.N. Security Council unanimously demanded yesterday that Iraq resume cooperation with U.N. weapons inspectors immediately. Baghdad has already announced it won't comply.
The resolution didn't include a timetable for lifting crippling economic sanctions, which Iraq has demanded as the price for reversing its decision to cut all dealings with the inspectors.
Council members reaffirmed their readiness to hold a comprehensive review of Iraq's compliance with U.N. resolutions, which could lead to the lifting of the oil embargo if U.N. inspectors declare Iraq has disarmed. But this offer is contingent on Iraq resuming cooperation with weapons inspectors.

Opinions mixed about supplements

supplements unnecessary.
"It doesn't benefit the student enough to make them use these supplements," she said. "The teachers don't encourage or enforce their use, even though they recommend them."
He said that a misunderstanding in the past led him to think that a certain supplement was being offered free when students were being charged for it.
Bill Paschke, professor of mathematics and chairman of a department committee that recommends textbooks for undergraduate mathematics courses, has become more careful when he orders textbooks.
"My plea to colleagues is to ask about the price before ordering these books," he said.
Melissa Bazert, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, said she did not find the cassettes that supplemented her Spanish 216 text useful.
"It's all in the book," she said. "Why do we have to pay for these supplements when everything else in college is so expensive?"
Bob Bryan, regional manager of Irwin McGraw-Hill, one of the biggest textbook publishing houses in the country, said that increasing popularity of supplements was leading to greater bundling.
"There is greater demand for CDs," he said.
He said that professors also preferred supplements because they were being allotted less money for copying materials to hand out in class.
Everett Grover, professor of chemistry, said that by being careful, professors could ensure that students got a good deal for textbooks.

Chancellor Robert Memenway and other University officials think the University of Kansas has done a good job enhancing classrooms with funding from the crumbling classrooms projects.
He proposed that the University become partners with the Board of Regents, the Governor and the Legislature to allocate sufficient funds to meet infrastructure needs.
Funding also has been used for more campus lighting, finishing modifications to interior lighting systems and for electrical upgrades, said Butch Larios, management systems analyst for facilities operations. He said that the main projects usually would be given to outside contractors because of facilities operations' hectic schedule.
"Primarily, our department is more interested in maintaining the buildings rather than remodeling." Larios said. "I think that some of the classroom projects have put a burden on us because they have taken away from the time we spend on regular maintenance."

He said that surveys were sent to different departments on campus so that the University could find out which classrooms needed the most attention.
Stallworth said that it had been a struggle for the University to work with the outdated buildings and around class schedules.
Stallworth said he thought the University had done a good job upgrading University facilities. But it hasn't been easy.
"Overall, it's been a coordinating and scheduling nightmare." Stallworth said. "I think for us to have accomplished as much as we have over the past few years, we've done a commendable job."
Stallworth said the University was spending about $27 million of the crumbling classroom funding on
"A lot of the buildings have needed many upgrades, like electrical and computer, and general upgrades of carpet and painting." Stallworth said. "We have also had to plan our work around the academic calendar."
Mike Richardson, director of Facilities Operations, said that he was pleased with the work across campus.
"I're really glad to see it all happen," Richardson said. "I think the updates have been timely and well-received across the University."
Hemenway said that there was more than $150 million in capital construction going on at the University at the present time. There is still more than $100,000 to be used in future projects.
Task force decides schools need groups to coordinate, plan
By Jason Pearce
Kanson staff writer
TOPEKA — A state task force designed to improve higher education governance concluded yesterday that the best way to reach that end might be to establish two additional governmental bodies.
Acting on a proposal by State Rep. David Adkins (R-Leawood), the Governor's Task Force On Higher Education Structure for Excellence decided that it would focus on a proposal to implement a new council to govern community colleges and vocational technical schools. The second body — a coordinating council of higher education — would provide planning and coordination among the different institutions.
These councils would need approval from the Legislature and Gov. Bill Graves. They also could require an amendment to the state constitution.
Adkins said that the proposal would have to detail how the system as a whole would benefit all institutions.
"It will have to be accountable, so policy makers will feel comfortable with additional funding." Adkins said.
Task force member Ken Havner said that the goals of the new bureaucracies would outweigh any additional costs.
"These are costs that people will accept." he said.
Before the decision, representatives from several state groups informed the task force how they stood on the issue.
Bill Docking, chairman of the Kansas Board of Regents, told the task force that regents members were behind an idea for a new coordinating body that would perform 12 tasks.
Docking said that the new council also would have an advocacy role for the institutions' yearly budgets.
These functions could be per-

formed as long as it did not interfere with the current governing systems, which have produced high quality and high access at a low cost, he said.
The task force will meet one more time before the end of the year and is expected to recommend a draft to the Legislature when it reconvenes next year.
Korb Maxwell, legislative director of the Student Legislative Awareness Board, spoke to the task force as a representative of the Kansas Student Congress on Higher Education Governance.
Maxwell informed the task force that the student congress' wanted to hold all programs, classes and instructors to a standard of excellence. The congress also is interested in continuing to make education affordable and providing an outlet for students' opinions.

Maxwell said that the student congress would testify in front of the Legislature about these issues next year.
"The key for us is to keep sounding off on students' goals," he said.

Issues raised about Senate leader should be taken seriously, fairly
On Oct. 28, a letter was delivered anonymously to Scott Kaiser which charged that he has been, among other things, biased and unprofessional in his position as student body vice president. It was signed by six members of the Student Executive Committee.
Although the letter's delivery to Kaiser seemed questionable, there is one fact in this affair that is not questionable.
There is a perception problem among student senators. Many of the allegations in the letter are somewhat vague and seem based on perceptions and interpretations of actions that may or may not be correct.
Kaiser addressed the grievances in
Kaiser addressed the issues at the Wednesday StudEx meeting.
this letter one at a time at this week's StudEx meeting. This a good thing. When misunderstandings like these are permitted to grow and fester, government of any sort grinds to a halt.
However, Wednesday's StudEx meeting should not be construed as an end to the matter. All parties involved should remember to keep lines of communication open at all times.
Kaiser also should have addressed the perception of some Senators that
ne uenn't care about what these senators had to say. In the Oct. 29 Kansan, he was quoted as saying that he wasn't really worried about it. This comment, although made less than 30 minutes after he received the letter, was not appropriate. Those in positions of power always should think before they speak. He gave the entire University community the impression that he was not concerned about a letter which was signed by a majority of the voting members of StudEx.
Senate should make every effort to place itself above petty bickering and infighting. Concerns of any sort should be voiced quickly and objectively, and those concerns must not be met with arrogance or apathy.

Pay off in Jones' case cheats justice
rauma Jones' recent acceptance of $1 million proposal from a New York tycoon, supposedly to encourage a compromise in her sexual harassment lawsuit against President Clinton, not only reflects poorly upon Jones' character but also sets a dangerous precedent for how justice should be determined in the United States.
Last week, Jones publicly accepted a check from New York parking-lot entrepreneur Abe Hirschfeld. Hirschfeld has declared that the $1 million line of credit would be hers if she settled with Clinton.
This adds yet another twist to Jones' historical civil suit. While her original case, announced in 1994, was thrown out of court last year, an appeal could mean Clinton would be the first sitting president in history to
If Paula Jones settles her lawsuit she will get $1 million, but not from Clinton.
be sued. Now in stages of negotiation. Clinton is offering $700,000 to end the suit. Jones, however, has publicly stated she wants $1 million from the president before she withdraws the case.
Hirschfeld's money will pay for Jones' expanding legal bills from current and former lawyers and a conservative consulting group.
the president accountable to making as much money as possible off of this bloated circus show. If the president did indeed sexually harass Jones, he must definitely be punished. In Jones' situation, greed has superseded her desire for justice.
Even more disturbing is the example of how a completely unrelated, but highly wealthy party such as Hirschfeld can steer the arbitration of a case with such serious implications. It is unfortunate that someone with enough money can essentially buy justice.
This most recent turn of events undermines the entire concept of justice. In the four years since she announced the civil suit, Jones' goal appears to have shifted from making
As citizens, we must realize that the commercialization of justice is a dangerous trend. When we place our own greed above the need for the proper action of law, the spirit of the American judicial system is cheapened.

A fond farewell to the days of Brandon Walsh
I said goodbye to an old friend Wednesday night. This was someone who has been with me through the good times and bad, someone with whom I could always identify.
From my friend's apartment, I watched as Brandon left his familiar surroundings in Beverly Hills for a big newspaper job in Washington D.C.
Along with the cast of *Beaverly Hills* 90210, I said a final goodbye to Brandon Walsh.

Oh Brandon, you will be missed.
always has been there for me—a permanent fixture of my adolescence. Other teen shows have come and gone, but Brandon and his clique of silicon-enhanced, trendy friends remained on Wednesday nights.
Before you cast aside my ramblings as that of someone who has watched far too much TV in 'her 21 years, let me assure you Brandon's departure has deeper meaning for this couch potato.
I identified with the young Walsh when the show first aired in 1990. His Midwestern family was uprooted and thrown into the strange world of California. Watching Brandon react to all of the blond hair, the flagrant displays of wealth and glitziness of Beverly Hills reminded me of when my family picked up and moved to Los Angeles in the mid '80s. Stranger in a strange land indeed.
In the coming years, Brandon found himself working for his high school newspaper. Another similarity, I tell you.
in college, Brandon wrote for the campus paper, and covered the administration. When I
But he lost me when, later in college, he switched his emphasis to broadcast journalism. Brandon ran the 'California University' television station while I stayed on as editor of the Kansan. Always the progressive, Brandon jumped on the journalism school trend of media convergence, as I stayed behind dedicated to print.
I can take a little joy in my roommate's nickname for me during this time. Whenever someone from Strong Hall called me back, Katie would leave a message that read: Brandon, the chancellor called you back.
But my faith was renewed in Brandon in the most recent seasons. Jobless after college graduation (big shock for journalism majors), he decided to start up a renegade weekly publication called the Beverly Beat. Often, when coniserating with fellow Kansan staffers about the real world, we resolve that if no one finds work, we will band together and start a paper made up of Kansan has-beens. Brandon and his trusty pal Steve lived out our fantasies.
tell you I did the same, don't think I decided to model my life after Brandon. That would be sick and wrong — these are mere coincidences. I swear.
The final bond that forever will tie me to Brandon came at the end of last season. He and Kelly, the college girlfriend, just couldn't seem to make it down the aisle. Try as he might, commitment just wasn't for him. Oh honey, I feel your pain.
So as Brandon Walsh drove off into the California night, heading for the big stories in Washington D.C., I wiped a tear from my eye and said goodbye to my adolescence (which I probably should have done a long time ago) and said goodbye to my constant television companion.
Fare thee well.

The art of acquaintances takes practice and skill
As the years pass by, we inevitably lose track of names and faces that were once part of our daily high-school agendas. Of course, this being the small world that it is.
25,000 students aren't nearly enough to keep me from running into a few old acquaintances while roaming campus.
Usually, this requires not only acknowledging that such people are recognized, but also stopping to have a conversation, which requires remembering something about them, oftentimes, their name.
P
Unfortunately, having my name and face posted in the paper once a week gives these blurred visions from the past

an unfair advantage — they can easily identify me on the walkways of campus, while I must search hopelessly for some nugget of information about them in the trash receptacles of my brain.
Not to say that these people aren't important. I just never expected to see them again. Ever.
"oh, hi." I'll say with the jolliest smile I can muster.
Usually, the first thing to strike me about these long lost laps is the weight they've gained or the hair they've lost. However, my strong sense of tact forces me to avoid voicing these observations. Rather, I'll do my best to navigate the inevitable topics of conversations.
The interested party will always want to "catch up" on the many happenings in my life. Sadly, I've accomplished very little in the last four years, and personal records for alcohol consumption and abstinence aren't exactly things to brak about.
Never mind the fact that this person and I spoke maybe 10 words to each other throughout all of high school, our hometown connection now binds us like brothers amongst the sea of strangers milling about.
"Oh, you know, work and school," I'll respond with that knowing grin of mine.
As a veteran of these chance encounters, though, I've learned a few tactics. Soon, I spring
So, are your friends? "Oh, my God," she'll respond with some sort of hand gesture, dependent upon the magnitude of the break up. "Did you not hear what he did to me?"
into the pain.
"So are you still with that one guy?"
While I could care less about what he did, at least the focus has been shifted from my meager existence to some story that will require no thought on my part to process. From here, I only can hope the whistle will give me a reason to run off to class.
Of course, these encounters should be meaningless and easy to handle. My problem is my mentality. You see. I hate unanswered questions.
"What's up?" is a killer to me because I can't just do the nod. I've got to say something, which is usually "nothing," which is a lie, which my mother trained me not to do, and you can only imagine the emotional ramifications of breaking such a sacred trust.
My friends have asked me to seek help, but I just can't afford it right now.
"How are you?" also seems to be a popular question. Go ahead and try to answer to that one honestly.
"Oh, me? Well, I'm single, I hate my job and can barely afford to pay the rent. My only real aspiration in life is to find some meaningful means of existence because I'm sure not getting it from school. How are you?"
Now, I don't really say that. Instead, I usually answer "fine," and look for the nearest building to duck into, saying something like "Yeah, all the English courses are in Smith Hall."
Maybe I'd feel better if everyone wasn't so floppin' happy. It's a bit difficult when some girl who turned you down for a date in high school comes bounding up with an engagement ring shining brighter than the light beacon that is the Lied Center sign. Not that I'm still bitter about it or anything.
I suppose these chance encounters are all just a small part of what makes college such a wonderful experience. I don't know, though. Sometimes, I'd just rather not have to repeat the same empty lines every time some vaguely familiar face stops me on the sidewalk. Or, at least they could pretend to forget my name, so I don't have to feel like such a schmuck.

Feedback
GTAC responsible for GTA health care
I was happy to read Andrew Gawron's Nov. 3 column, "GRA/GTA health plan excludes many students." Gawron is correct; the current health care option clearly fails to meet the needs of those eligible for the plan, let alone those who are not. However, I was disappointed to note that Gawron failed to identify the single reason graduate students have any health care
GTAC fought for years to secure the health options implemented this semester. Unfortunately, I think the official position of the administration has been either indifference or hostility toward graduate-student efforts to gain compensation. Is it any wonder, then, that the plan we now have is inadequate?
options: GTAC, the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition.
GTAC only was able to secure benefits for GTAS, but GTAC would love to see all graduate students receive the
health care options. Not only has GTAC secured health care for GTAs, but all GTAs now enjoy increased compensation, a grievance procedure and many other benefits thanks to their union.

Graduate students who wish to secure fair compensation for their invaluable work should join GTAC, the only organization that has fought for and won benefits for GTAs.

KU student group gathering donations for hurricane victims
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Members of Latin American Solidarity are leading a campus-wide effort to collect relief supplies for the Central American victims of Hurricane Mitch and the floods that followed it.
The movement got started on an e-mail list that includes students and professors with an interest in Central America. Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student and president of Latin American Solidarity, said people had been forwarding news reports to others on the list.
The need for help in the affected countries was clear to many of the people involved.
"This has caused devastation and widespread economic effects in a way that natural disasters don't in countries that are a little better off economically," Hope said.
The group collected money and supplies in the fourth floor lobby of the Kansas Union yesterday. It will collect donations there again Tuesday and Thursday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Donors also can leave items at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread St., from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.
John Hoopes, an associate professor of anthropology who does research in Costa Rica, has been sending reports through e-mail since the crisis began. He said he read an article from a Costa Rican paper lamenting that American help would not arrive until after the disaster struck, once Americans began to see pictures of dead and dying children on riverbanks.
"I thought that was a really sad commentary," said Hoopes, who has aided the relief effort.
"Unless we can help Nicaraguans and Hondurans to get back on their feet in their own countries, there's going to be a horrible refugee problem."

Associate professor of anthropology
Silvia Gonzalez, Honduras graduate student, said she hoped people on campus would grasp the scope of the disaster, even though it seemed removed from their everyday lives.
it is unimaginable for somebody here who has all the comforts and is worried about what to wear the next day," she said. "People there don't have water to drink."
She related a story of parents who had to tie their kids into trees so they wouldn't fall in to rising waters.
"Iimages like that — if (only) people can think how they'd suffer if they were in a situation like that," she said.
Hoopes emphasized that all Americans — in the United States and in Latin America — had an interest in a swift relief response.
"Unless we can help Nicaraguans and Honduras to get back on their feet in their own countries, there's going to be a horrible refugee problem," he said. "It's a terrible situation, but if it's not solved, it's going to spread and become a problem for a much larger area."
Latin American Solidarity and others are gathering relief supplies for victims of Hurricane Mitch and the floods that followed it. Here are the things they need:
RELIEF SUPPLIES
FOOD: Beans, rice, baby formula, corn meal,
bottled water and anything canned
MEDICINE: pain relievers, aspirin, anti-diarrheal medicine, bandages, gauze, medical tape and antiseptic cream
OTHER SUPPLIES: clothing of size, blankets, sheets, dishes and kitchen utensils
MONEY: Latin American Solidarity will distribute cash and checks made out to the following relief organizations:
The American Red Cross — write International Response Fund on the memo line
Honduran Relief Fund — a fund set up by the Honduran Consulate
Presiding Bishops World Relief — a fund set up by the Episcopal Church
Great Commission Ministries — write HHRF on the memo line of the check. It stands for Honduran Hurricane Relief Fund

The former hurricane that caused serious damage in Central America is now a tropical storm and has reached Florida.

Event to discuss partnership policies
Hate crimes, bias will be discussed at weekend forum
By Sieph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
The Kansas Union will be transformed into a forum on gender and sexual orientation-policy issues this weekend.
"And Justice for All," a conference sponsored by Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates and co-sponsored by 21 campus, community and state organizations, will be held in the Kansas Union on Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Sunday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. The conference is free and open to all state residents. Preregistration is preferred, but on-site registration will be allowed.
Rob Melton, president of GLASA said that to register, people could e-mail chief organizer Chris Robinson at robinson@falcon.cc.ukans. ed or call him at 863-3378. They
also can register at the con-
ference Web site, www.turnlef.com/conference/.
Sessions will cover topics, such as domestic partnership policies, non-discrimination policies, policies on bias incidents, hate crimes and harassment and academic freedom. There will also be a book-signing by local author Diane Silver.
The conference is not an annual event. Melton said the idea came from a subcommittee of GLASA to ask the administration to start a domestic partnership registration at the University.
"As we prepared our request, it occurred to us that other institutions of higher education in Kansas and in surrounding states should also be examining their personnel policies to ensure that the domestic partners of their faculties and staffs are treated the same as are the spouses of married faculty and staff members."
Robinson said that another motivator for the conference was an anonymous request

from a member of the Legislature last year to get a list of courses at Regents institutions that contained material dealing with homosexuality and bisexuality.
"Kansans across the state were concerned with the request," Robinson said.
She said that both Governor Bill Graves and KU administration refused to comply with the request saying it violated academic freedom.
"It was a wonderful response from our administration and government," Robinson said.
At the conference, presenters, who include professors from different universities,
attorneys and law enforcement officials, will discuss different laws and policies and how they affect college campuses.
Money for the conference was raised entirely by the sponsors. A Rainbow Bash party to raise more money will be held Saturday night at the Tee Pee, located on the south side of U.S. Highway 24-40.
The party costs $7 and will feature performances by comedian Jay Pryor, folk singer Celia Shacklett and violinist Megan Hurt. Directions to the party can be found on the conference Web site.
Friday afternoon, the conference keynote speaker, Sue Rankin, Senior Diversity Planning Analyst/Coordinator of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender Equity at Pennsylvania State University, will present a lecture.
The lecture, "Inside the Athletic Closet: Heterosexism and Sexism in Women's Intercollegiate Sports," will be held at 3:30 p.m. in the English room of the Kansas Union.
Students becoming Pals for children
Sports bring kids mentors together
By Julie M. Sachs Kansan staff writer
Campus Pals, a national program sponsored by Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America, expanded into the University of Kansas this year, placing students into mentoring roles for young children.
The program, which also is associated with the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics, matches teams of two students or student-athletes with a Little Brother or Little Sister.
Amy Knight, volunteer coordinator for Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Douglas County, said that the program taught children to give back to the community.
She said the program also benefited the volunteers.
"They have the opportunity to be a role model for children," Knight said.
According to the Big Brothers/Big Sisters of America, the criteria for matching children to their mentors includes an interest in a special short-term relationship, an interest in sports and the ability to attend Campus Pals program activities.
Knight said that the program was a good way to get athletes involved. She said the Big Brothers/Big Sisters program approached the KU Athletics Department about involvement in the program.
"The Athletics Department has been really helpful and supportive." Knight said.
John Jefferson, director of student-athlete life, said that many of the student athletes had signed up for the program. He said the program would be beneficial and that it was a way the athletic community could assist.
"We push these types of things," Jefferson said. "This is just a way to get more people involved. The sign-up has been outstanding."
The program will hold its first activity tomorrow. Mentors and their Little Brother or Sister will spend the day together and attend the KU football game.
Several other activities also will be planned for the children and their mentors, Knight said.

Campus cash-to-card machines will not process new $20 bills
All five locations lack software to read money
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
The redesigned $20 bill has been in circulation for a few weeks, but students shouldn't be too quick to use them at some places on campus.
The cash-to-card machines, which allow students to put money on their University of Kansas smart cards digitally, are not accepting the new bills.
The five machines located at the Kansas Union, Burge Union, Watson Library, Computer Center and Wescoe Hall have not been installed with the new software that reads the bill.
"We haven't even received the software from the Federal Reserves," said Mary Ann Graham, KU card center manager. "After we receive the software, we'll fix it."
Graham said that that she hoped the cash-to-card machines could be updated by mid December.
The Federal Reserves haven't issued the software anywhere in the United States. Other machines that accept money, such as those at laundromats or casinos, also have had problems.
"From what I understand, it's a problem with the computer software and nothing else," said Mark Gonzales, community bank president at Commerce Bank. "Students that need to exchange a new bill for an old one can do so."
Gonzalez said that the Commerce Bank in the Union had prepared for an influx of students asking for old bills.
Janice Arneson, supervisor of cash handling at the Union, also said that the check-cashing window would be able to make exchanges for students.
Graham said that as soon as the card center was aware of the problem, signs were placed by all of the cash-to-card machines.
"I haven't found any new $20 bills in the machines, so I know that the machines aren't eaten them," Graham said. "I don't know what would happen if a student tried it, but I haven't had any complaints."
As the new bill starts to circulate more frequently, students hope that the problem can be fixed at all locations.
"I don't use the smart card for money, but that's kind of inconvenient for those who do," said Alana Johnston, Manhattan freshman. "You'd think they would have thought of that sooner, especially with all the hope for the new bill."
Although the new $10 and $$ bills have not be released, they will be included in the new software. This will prevent similar problems in the future.

Lawrence programs net HUD funds
Rv Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has awarded the Lawrence Housing Authority more than $110,000 to combat illegal drug use and drug-related crime in public housing.
This is the fifth year the housing authority has received money from HUD's Drug Elimination Grant program. The authority contracts with DCCCA Inc., a Lawrence treatment center, to administer its anti-drug program out of the Edgewood public housing complex.
Kris Hermanson, the drug elimination program coordinator for DCCCA, said the grant would sustain important programs that have made a difference in Lawrence.
"There has been a 40 percent decrease in crime over four years in Lawrence's public
housing." Hermanson said.
Hermanson said a few programs include parenting classes, life skills courses, computer training, neighborhood watch programs and private security patrols for public housing areas.
There are 130 public housing units at Edgewood and 238 others scattered throughout Lawrence. Edgewood is primarily a family-housing area, Hermanson said, while many of the other units accommodate senior citizens or people with handicaps.
Job referrals and an educational resource library available at Edgewood help people get the tools they need to work, Hermanson said. This, in turn, helps them to stay out of trouble.
"I'm not saying crime is totally eliminated, but Edgewood Homes is pretty safe," she said.
Lawrence Police Sgt. George
HUD GRANT
Who: HUD awarded the money to the Lawrence Housing Authority
Why: The grant is to be used to continue anti-drug programs with the hope of reducing drug-related crime in public housing.
Wheeler said the anti-drug programs had been helpful. The police department coordinates efforts with the private security company at Edgewood.
"That complex has changed drastically in the last 10 years for the better." Wheeler said.
He acknowledged that despite the improvement, illegal drugs and crimes related to drugs remain a priority for the Lawrence Police Department.
DCCCA's anti-drug programs are prevention-based, rather
than reactionary. Hermanson wants to stop problems before they start.
Literacy, training is another component of prevention. Through the Students Tutoring for Literacy program, public housing residents receive assistance in learning to read or improving their reading skills.
The University of Kansas Center for Community Outreach participates in the literacy effort. Chris Hess, Wichita junior and center co-director, said the literacy outreach was one of his favorite community service efforts.
Hess said KU students go out weekly to 10 sites in the community, including one on campus. One focus of the literacy effort is to prepare adults to take the GED test.
"It was a very humbling experience tutoring someone twice you age who has a fourthgrade reading level," Hess said.

Frost Mason accepts Alternative Spring Break faculty sponsor position
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Sally Frost Mason will stray from her normal teaching responsibilities when she serves as the faculty sponsor next semester for the Alternative Spring Break program.
Frost Mason, dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences who normally teaches in the Division of Biology, will teach a Human Development and Family Life course. HDFL 606. The course is designed to prepare the students for their work during spring break.
"It's not really a classroom experience in the traditional sense." Frost Mason said.
"I have a sense of what these kids are feeling," she said.
The program's student directors and Linda Luckey, assistant to the dean of the college, will assist Frost Mason in teaching the course.
Alternative Spring Break is designed to provide a classroom learning environment with hands-on community service, said E.J. Reedy, Torpea sohmore and co-director.
This year during spring break, the program will send students to locations across the United States to work for environmental improvement, cultural diversity and education and to end hunger and help the homeless.
Frost Mason also will draw on her own service experience as a college student, when she worked for many organizations, including Habitat for Humanity.
Frost Mason said the class would feature guest speakers from the University of Kansas faculty and the community who have experience in service work. Reedy said a diversity peer team would come to inform students about the regions they would be working in.
Reedy said the class also allowed students to get to know each other before they spent spring
break together.
The program is in its fifth year, and Frost Mason has been interested since its beginning. She said three students came to her with the idea for an alternative spring break and partial funding. Frost Mason said she liked their vision and agreed to help provide the remaining funds for the students with money from the college's unrestricted endowment fund.
Since the first year, the
T. W. HANCOX
Since the first year, the group has grown from seven students at one site to 110 students at 11 sites. Frost Mason said it was gratifying to have seen the program grow so quickly. She said the program was an indication of the growing idealism in the students' generation, and she was happy to see that.
Students who participate must attend the class and complete a research assignment.
Frost Mason: Has been interested in program for years.
They can earn 0 to 2 hours of credit
The cost is $155 for volunteers and $80 for site leaders, who usually have previous experience with the program.

Holiday party at Eldridge Hotel to kickoff season for business
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Fickett
Holiday shopping enthusiasts can begin to prepare for lights, parades and store clearances in downtown Lawrence.
Businesses will share ideas and announce their plans for this year's holiday season at the first party to kickoff the holidays downtown. The party, "A Festive Beginning," will take place from 5:30 to 8 tonight in the Eldridge Hotel's Crystal Room.
Although the day after Thanksgiving is considered the traditional start of the holiday shopping season, tonight marks the official start for downtown Lawrence businesses.
The event offers businesses a chance to network and share ideas about their holiday plans. Not-for-profit organizations will also be at the event to announce their holiday fund raising plans.
Marcia McFarlane, administrator for Downtown Lawrence Inc., said that this was the first social event of its kind in downtown.
Plans also will be announced for downtown

holiday decorations and the annual lighting ceremony.
McFarlane said that this year's ceremony would feature new lights and decorations.
"The thing I have heard the most is that the merchants wanted something spectacular and different to attract people downtown," McFarlane said.
Rob Phillips, Eldridge Hotel manager, said that he would reveal plans for the sixth annual Eldridge Hotel Old-Fashioned Christmas Parade.
Phillips said that the holiday season and the parade attracted out-of-town business to the hotel.
Phillips expects more than 100 horse-drawn carriages from across the Midwest to enter in the parade.
Fine arts classes not scrimping on schoolwork

Ricardo Moreira, an architecture major, decided to take introduction to world dance for fall the semester.
Some students who take fine arts classes for fun or as an easy way to fulfill a requirement may find there is more work than they expected.
"I thought it would be easy, but it turned out that we had to do several things I didn't expect, like dance, attend several performances and write papers about them," said Moreira. Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, junior.
Moreira never returned after the first day of class. He said that because he had other choices to fulfill the same requirement, he would not enroll in a course that consumed his time.
"I thought the class would be interesting, but when I took it, I thought it would be a lecture type of class," he said "It was very demanding, and

it required a good background in arts."
"The University is not a private studio where students take classes and leave," said Janet Hamburg, professor of dance. "They come here to learn more about the art forms they are studying."
Hamburg said students who enrolled in her introduction to modern dance class were expected to attend performances and write papers. The requirements, also include watching videos and reading books.
Ron Willis, professor of theater, said he does not require a textbook in class, but he expects students to attend all University Theatre productions and two shows performed off campus.
"If what they are studying is live theater, they have to get in touch

with live theater events," he said.
"Otherwise, it is like learning how to swim and not going near the pool."
"It can be quite expensive in the end," she said. "I don't mind paying for those performances because I would go to most of them anyway. What I don't really like is to go to these shows and know that I'll have to write a paper about it."
Hamburg and Willis said most students seemed to like attending shows and that they never have received a complaint about it.
Jane Stoever, Overland Park Junior, said she knew she would have to attend performances and write papers when she took a dance class.
"I thought it was neat to learn the basics of modern dance and then get a chance to see performances by professional dancers," she said.

Graceful form of art alluring to students in motion
Performers will tell stories through body movements in weekend performance
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas' dancers and dance professors will explore legends, tragedies and culture this weekend in the Lied Center.
The concerts are at 8 tonight and tomorrow and will include seven different dances that highlight jazz, tango and modern dance.
"Normally we do a more ballet type of concert, but this time we wanted to get as much variety in the program as we could," said Jerel Hilding, associate professor of music and dance who choreographed "Tangazo."
Joan Stone, instructor of music and dance, said all of the 39 dancers involved in the University Dance Company performance were chosen through auditions.
"The University dance company is for the students primarily. We do have some faculty performing on occasion, and this time we happen to have three professors performing." Stone said.
Stone said her piece, called "Broken Threads," was inspired by people who lost relatives in the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995.
"People, like in Oklahoma City, have joined together to grieve as a group," she said. "And that is what the seven dancers evoke, a community of mourners using dance to help them in their pain, rage and in their search for order."
The piece mixes elements from Baroque and modern dance with the music of "Ballett Lamentabil" by heinrich Ignaz Franz von Biber.
Mary Shahrokhi, Leawood junior, will make her debut in the University Dance Company performing in Stone's piece and in "Tangazo."
She said "Tangazo" is a mixture between tango and ballet. The dancers are led by Hilding.
"We are kind of evil, and I call us vampires," she said. "But it is an abstract piece and people can interpret it however they want."

Hilding said that the performance did not have a main theme but that by chance this time several choreographers used journeys as their main focus.
"Each choreographer comes up with their own idea and creates their dance from various inspirations, whereas it could be a personal experience, music or a particular theme which he or she would like to explore in movement," he said.
Other pieces included in the program are "Blossom of Fire" and "Proa," by Patrick Suzeau, instructor of dance; "Journeys from the Tower of the Moon," by Willie Lenoir, instructor of dance; and "Winding Path" and "Woman-song." by Muriel Cohan, associate professor of dance.
General admission tickets for the KU concert are on sale at the KU box offices and cost $5 for students and $5 for students.
Dancer's professional career broadens her life as a student
By Emily C. Forsyth Special to the Kansan
For Christine Colby-Jacques, dancing is not a choice. It is a necessity.
Asked why she has danced since
the age of three, she responds, "I just have to."
Practicing her jazz routine on a recent afternoon, Colby-Jacques, Cincinnati sophomore, fit the description of a dance student:
simple black leotard, tights and dancing shoes on her long, muscular frame, short blonde hair bouncing slightly with each step.
She looked like any number of undergraduate dancers as she worked through her routine for the University Dance Company's fall dance. However, a closer look into Colby-Jacques' life reveals that she is not the average dance student. Unlike many of her classmates, she already has amassed an extensive professional career.
Her resume includes dancing on Broadway, on television, in films, commercials and music videos as a Disney character and as a Rockette. She has training in tap, jazz, ballet, modern and hip-hop, in addition to teaching dance.
Now 45 years old, Colby-Jacques has been dancing nearly every day of her entire life. After spending 20 years as a dancer in New York City, she made the transition to pursue a degree in dance. Although she had taught dance at a studio, she thought that having a degree might increase her opportunities for teaching at the university level or at a performing arts school.
Returning to school later in life, she said, has made perfect sense for her.
"I think my life experience has prepared me for college," she said. "I've always focused on my career — getting work, jobs, going to [dance] class, getting better, honing my craft."
Now, she focuses on doing homework, writing papers and broadening her ideas. Joan Stone, director of dance, said that Colby-Jacques was able to contribute ideas from a different perspective to her dance history class.
"She sets a standard of seriousness in the kinds of questions she asks and the kinds of responses she gives because of her extensive background as a dancer on Broadway and in film." Stone said.
Stone said she thought other students in the class appreciated what Colby-Jacques offered to the discussions.
"They admire her for what she's done, and they also like that she sits in class and really participates as a student," she said.
Janet Hamburg, professor of dance, has worked with Colby-Jacques in dance classes and agreed that she contributes something unique to the learning environment.
"She brings a level of maturity and professionalism to her work that is rare for an undergraduate." Hamburg said. "She's a delightful student because after having her own professional career, she's in school because she wants to learn."
In addition to her studies, Colby-Jacques dances in the University Dance Company and teaches privately and for the State Ballet of Missouri. Although she no longer maintains the six-sounds a-day schedule she once kept in New York City as a Rockette, Colby-Jaques finds time to work out at least two and a half hours each day
Her routine includes walking two miles every day and alternating every other day between step aerobics, weight lifting and exercising in the pool. And, of course, she dances every day.
Colby-Jacques plans to continue dancing as long as she is able.
"I think it is really important for the younger generation to have examples of older dancers continuing to dance," she said. "I hope I'm just another example of not falling by the wayside because I'm older."

Guilty pleasures permeate the big screen, air waves
An undead zombie threatens the living in *Evil Dead 2: Dead by Dawn*. Released in 1987, director Sam Raimi's opera of flying eyeballs, dismembered hands and geysers of gore upped the ante for later entries in the realm of so-bad-it's-kinda-good cinema. It's mix of Exorcist-type horror and Three Stooges slopstick later was copied in main-stream hits such as Liar Liar and From Dusk Till Dawn.

FANATIC
Francisco to Miami,
but John Carpenter's
Vampires could end up as
a mini-landmark in Ameri-
can cinema.
How can this be?
The New York Times'
Lawrence Van Gelder howled at the horror flick's reliance on mumbo jumbo and labeled it as claptrap. Hauling out his grab bag of puns, Michael O'Sullivan of the The Washington Post panned the movie as toothless and dead.
And I don't deny any of those charges. In fact, the incessant parade of bloodletting, prostitutes and foul language is exactly why Vampires 'brand of shoot'-'em-up silliness works.
It's the newly crowned King of Guilty Pleasures. In fact, it may be the most invigorating exercise in schlock since Evil Dead 2 joked around with flying eyeballs and dismembered hands more than 10 years ago.
Guilty,pleasures inhabit the lonely middle ground that exists between critically acclaimed Oscar-winners and overpriced turkeys. Producers and show biz folks unleash these products on the public in the hope that, somehow, something will stick in the consciousness of audiences.
When they don't,
When they don't,
the movies
usually turn
up on
cable TV months later, stuck between airings of Beastmaster 6 and Aqua Monster: The Return.
And people love 'em. They revel in the cheap writing, the balsa-wood acting and the dollar-store special effects. The best guilty pleasures are the ones that consistently push the envelope and go for bigger explosions, nastier gore and faster cars. They can be innovative, but they never lose sight of their cheesy roots.
To qualify as a guilty pleasure, a movie has to meet three criteria:
The script must tell a pulpy story about crops, cops or secret agents. Any attempts at character development are frowned upon. James Wood's hero in Vampires, for example, remains thoroughly dislikable, vulgar and sadistic from start to finish as he beats up on hookers, priests and, oh yeah, vampires.
The chances of widespread appeal are slim. Hence, *Face/Off*, while seemingly a prime candidate as a guilty pleasure, doesn't qualify because it starred John Travolta and Nicolas Cage. Plus, it tacked on a phony happy ending — a big mistake in schlock cinema.
The movie requires a sense of audacity. It needs to take chances and rub its excesses in the viewer's face. A good example in this case is Oliver Stone's 1997 thriller *U-Turn*, which paired an array of film noir clichés with wall-to-wall sex and violence. Stone also shot the movie in his usual style — all nutty camera angles and a mixture of color and black-and-white photography. Does it serve a purpose? Nope. It's its eye-catching as hell.
There are exceptions to these rules.
Please use italics. I am sorry.

k doesn't meet the standard for guilty pleasures, but its 1997 sequel, The Lost World, does. At first glance, that scuns odd.
Both were huge moneymakers, and both had a profound impact on the field of computerized special effects. What's the difference?
The Lost World is like the orphaned child in a Dickens novel that no one wants. It's louder, bloodier and more hackenied than its predecessor. But because it's not trying to wow us with glorious, sun-bathed images of grazing dinosaurs, it doesn't waste time getting
around to the slicing and dicing
around to the sliding and diving.
Some of today's biggest stars have based their entire careers on satisfying the public's primal urgles. Is anyone dying for the day when Kurt Russell plays King Lear? If he's not starring in asequel to Big Trouble in Little China sometime soon, I'm going to withdraw my membership in his fan club.
This philosophy explains beautifully why TV shows such as Dukes of Hazzard continue to thrive in syndicated reruns. Any program that survives so well on a diet of rednacks, down-home cooking and cars named General Lee is doing something right.
And let's not leave out the old standby of guilty pleasures, heavy metal music. Though everyone swayed to power ballads by Tesla and Poison at junior high dances, it's not proper these days to get caught up in crunching guitar chords and lyrics about every rose having its own thorn.

OPENING ACT
Conspiracy, brew on tap at local tavern
What to look for in the opening episode:
The sixth season opener finds Mulder and Scully attempting to return to work on the X-Files with the help of their supervisor, Assistant Director Skinner.
The dark figures led by the Cigarette-Smoking Man have other plans.
The first episode also features a return appearance by Mimi Rogers as Agent Diana Fowley and Chris Owens as Agent Jeffery Spender.

By Agent A. A. Piazza
Kansan staff reporter
For many KU students and Lawrence residents, there is no mystery about where to go on Sunday nights to watch the popular paranormal-chasing duo of Fox Mulder and Dana Scully.
The Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St., has become the weekly hangout for many X-Files afficiados.
Wilson said that it originally began as a way for him to watch the show while he worked on Sunday nights. He placed an "X" in the front window to alert other conspiracy-curious fans that they could watch the show.
Sunday's season premier will kick off the third season that the bar has held the weekly gathering. The show, on the Fox network, will begin its sixth season. The gathering was initiated by Marty
"Everybody from students, locals, lawyers and administrators come together to watch the show." Wilson said
"I was doing it for selfish reasons," Wilson said.
THE X FILES
The gathering was initiated by Marty Wilson, bartender at the Red Lyon.
Mason Karrer, Overland Park senior.
Lyon the first year the bar televised the show and will attend the party Sunday night. He said he was eager to see if the guarders of The X-Files would pick up the creators
said that he attended the Red
show's summer movie left off.
But once the action on the screen starts, the chattering has to stop. Wilson said silence spread throughout the bar once the show's opening credits started to roll.
Many of the show's Lawrence faithful will be in attendance Sunday night, ready to share their theories about what the new season holds.
"It's very quiet, there are rules that you have to obey," Karrer said. "It's not very often that you will be in a crowded bar and it will be so quiet."
"It definitely turned Sunday night around," Wilson said. "It turned the slowest night of the week into one of the busiest nights."
Wilson said that the X-Files night had increased business on Sunday nights.
Wilson said that on a typical Sunday night about 100 people pile in to watch the show.
Haglund is scheduled to return toward the end of the year. Wilson said.
I know! How about the Red Lyon?
"We never thought that the night would take off as much as it did," he said.
A highlight for the Red Lyon viewing par ties came this summer when Dean Haglund, the actor who plays Langley, of the Lone Gunmen, attended to play host to The X-Files night.
Though the bar normally opens at 7 p.m. Sundays, Wilson said he'd open the doors about 6:30 p.m. Sunday.
But where can we go to watch The X-Files?

Injuries will test team's stamina vs. California All-Stars
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's basketball team will finally get an opportunity to play outside of practice Saturday, but the biggest challenge could come from the injuries the team has suffered.
The Jayhawks have their first exhibition game against the California All-Stars at Allen Field House and continue to search for answers to the injury question. The team is happy to have a chance to play in a non-practice situation, Kansas coach Rov Williams said.
"It's good just to get to play somebody different, when you're playing against your teammates every day. And they're definitely tired of hearing me," Williams said. "We're throwing a lot of different things at them right now trying to get them caught up. The excitement of playing in front of a

Volleyball goes deep into heart of Texas
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
First things first.
The Kansas volleyball team takes on Baylor at 7:30 tonight in Waco and No. 24 Texas Tech at 7 tomorrow night in Lubbock. Coach Ray Bechard said that the team and coaches had focused mainly on their first opponent.
"That's been our philosophy all year dealing with Friday and Saturday matches," Bechard said. "We can't look to our Saturday match before we deal with Friday on purpose."
Beachard said that both matches would be challenging for different reasons.
"Baylor doesn't have the big, physical size that Texas Tech has," he said. "But they have a little more ball control. They're extremely good in transition. Texas Tech is omposite."
This weekend, the Jay hawks, 14-10 overall, 4-8 in the Big 12 Conference, face two teams that provide a contrast in playing styles.

Bechard: Says weekend matches will be challenging
Baylor, 11-13 overall and 4-8 in the Big 12, is tied with

As the end of the season approaches, Bechard said that every match left was important for the teams fighting to move up in the conference.
"I think the top three spots in the conference are stable but after that it gets interesting." Bechard said. "We're not looking past this season. They want to finish as strong as they can. The motivation is that you never know. If you can finish in the middle or upper tier of the conference, you might extend your season to the tournament."
Baylor and Kansas haven't played each other yet this year. Although the Bears have a losing record, they have won four of their last five matches.
Texas Tech (17-8 overall, 6-4 in the Big 12) enters tomorrow's match ranked fifth in the Big 12.
Last season, Baylor swept the Jayhawks at home 17-15, 15-5 and 17-15 and then later defeated them in four games in Waco 9-10, 15-4, 15-7 and 16-14.

Kansas football ready to battle North Texas
Kansan sportswriter
By Jodi M. Smith
It will be a Saturday of mixed emotions.
The Kansas football will play its last home game of the season tomorrow.
"I'm sure it will be a bittersweet memory for me, something I'll always remember," senior offensive tackle Dan Dercher said. "But I've still got a game to play, and we want to go out there and win that for our memories."
Some are trying not to Senior running back Dustin Curry said it probably wouldn't even hit him until the season was finished.
For the seniors, the 1 p.m. kickoff against the North Texas Eagles will be their last at Memorial Stadium.
Some are trying not to think about it.
"I haven't really thought about it too much yet," he said. "I'm more concentrating on getting these last two wins, but it's going to be exciting — your last home game ever. It'll probably hit me more after the season's over and when they start spring ball."
Others, like senior inside linebacker Steve Bratten, have been preparing for this game.
Bratten, who has had knee injuries his entire career at Kansas, has known that every game might be his
"I've already dealt with it," Bratten said. "Three games preceding the K-State game, I was pretty emotional as far as, 'Is this going to be it,' so I think I've already dealt with that."
last.
And now, with no chance at a bow bid, the Kansas football team wants to end the season on a high note — with two more wins.
"I think now they're in a situation where they're strictly playing for
pride and to develop the future of the program," coach Terry Allen said. "To get two wins right here would be critical for us to try to talk about the future and playing with pride and the things we need to do to kind of get to that next level."
For the seniors, there is no next level at Kansas, which makes these last two games all the more important.

a record of 2-6, one game behind the Javahawks' 3-6 record.
To some they may seem like a team to be walked upon, but Kansas is not looking past them.
The same can be said for Kansas.
For one final day, the team will be focused on playing for the seniors who have led the Jayhawks through a disappointing season.
"We just have to try and live it up right now and have a good time with it because it is the last time I will play, maybe forever," Dercher said.
When it all comes down to it, Bratten wants to win the game for himself, not for records or trophies.
The game will not be broadcast on TV,but it will be broadcast on The Lazer 105.9.
"Wins and losses, that's what defines a good program," he said. "But 10 years from now, more than the record really, I'll be thinking about all of the guys, the seniors, that I've played with, and that's going to mean more than any of the wins and losses."
The Kansas men are ranked 25th in Speedo America's preseason polls while the A&M men are ranked 15th. The A&M women rank 22nd.
Kansas swimmers plunge into season against Texas teams
The Kansas men's and women's swimming and diving team will compete against Texas A&Mat 7 tonight in the Robinson Center.
"This is a great opportunity for two teams that are ranked in the top 25 to compete against one another," coach Gary Kempf said. "With the tradition and ranking of our program and the strong positive rivalry that has developed between us and A&M, it should be a great meet."
Last season, the Aggies beat both Kansas teams in College Station, Texas.
Junior Tyler Painter, who is ranked 14th in the world in the 1500 free, will lead the Kansas men in the 500-meter and 1650-meter freestyle races.
Senior Adrienne Turner, three-time All-American will lead the women in the 100-meter and 200-meter butterfly and the 400-meter individual medley.
The Jayhawks placed fifth in the men's and third in the women's competition at the Big 12 Relays and Invitational in Lincoln, Neb.
The women also will compete 9 a.m. Saturday in Robinson against North Texas.

Looks like there are lots of changes coming this year, especially involving your finances. Follow your heart in October and November. Keep your purse snapped shut in December. There's confusion at home in February, and lots of love by March. You'll get a real workout around April, but you know the ropes. You can handle a tough job. June could be very expensive, so save up for it. By August, you'll see your way clear. A charitable act leads to love in September.
Aries : Today is a 6
A friend's emergency could hit you in the some thought, and don't let "not enough money" be the real son you don't do it.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Gemini: Today is a 5
Money matters could be difficult, but you're not in dire straits. This weekend would be a good time to spend with family. Make up for lost time. Keep an eye out for a friend in need, so that you can be supportive.
There's an old saying: You should tell the truth all the time, but you don't have to be telling it all the time. There's a correction that needs to be put in, but your problem could be somebody else's solution. If you spot a trick being played, don't let on that you know.
Cancer: Today is a 6
There could be a breakthrough coming regarding your work. It might be another job you're taking on, or different chores you're assigned. You have to learn a new skill, and that can be scary. You're in a good position to learn. You're feeling pressure, that's true, but you've got talents you haven't even tapped yet.
Leo: Today is a 6
Have people over to your place this weekend instead of going out. You could be pivotal tonight in helping solve a controversy between two intellectual combatants. They're both pretty smart, but they're missing the common sense answer.
A couple people in your life are determined to scramble things and change everything from the way you had it neatly organized. You feel like you don't have control, but that's not true. You may have to speak up. Be nice but firm and decisive at the same time.
Libra: Today is a 6
Scorpio; Today is a 6.
Necessity is the mother of invention, and today that's especially true. You'll come up with lots of creative ideas, because you can't come up with the cash, or you don't want to spend it. There's a way you can make what you need instead of buying it.
Sagittarius: Today is a 4.
It's a good time to talk and a good time to be quiet. Now that you know, you can schedule your conversations accordingly. Don't let the person you're negotiating with find out everything you know before your plans are quite ready yet.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
You'll notice that some people just can't keep their mouths shut. You'll also notice that things are changing because of the information coming out. Somebody's life is changing for the better, and somebody else's is changing for the worse.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
Aquarius: Today.
There are all sorts of hassles today. Don't let them upset you. It's either undelivered communication, thwarted intention or unfilled expectation. There's another huge hassle this afternoon, but by evening you'll have broken through to a new understanding.
2
Pisces: Today is a 7.
There's confusion at your place again tonight, but it looks like there's creativity going on too. You're tearing things apart, but you're also putting things back together in new and interesting ways. You're in the mood to generate, and that's always amazing to watch. But don't be a spectator. Be a participant.

crowd and getting to do something different other than practice is something the guys are really looking forward to."
Kansas will be missing two of its top front-court players. Senior T.J. Pugh is out for three more weeks due to ankle surgery, and junior Ashante Johnson, who had surgery on his right knee Oct. 30, also will not play.
"There are still so many question marks," Williams said. "Some of which have been answered to the negative — T.J.'s surgery last Wednesday, he's out four weeks; Ashante's surgery last Friday, he's out six."
With Pugh and Johnson definitely ruled out of Saturday's lineup and junior Lester Earl playing at only 75 percent because of an injured knee, junior Nick Bradford, all 6-foot-6, 190 pounds of him, has been forced to

The remaining big men have been struggling through practice, without many substitutes to relieve them in scrimmage situations.
"We've been going through entire practices without subs," said freshman forward Jeff Carey. "It puts a little more pressure on us knowing we don't have the subs there, but it's helped with my development."
move to power forward. This is a position many find ironic for the slim utility player.
With or without injuries, the Jayhawks will not face an easy opponent this Saturday. The California All-Stars are composed of former UCLA players Jeni McCoy, Charles O'Bannon and Kris Johnson, among others.
"I've never seen Nick Bradford described as a power player until this year." Williams said.
After playing the All-Stars, the Jay
Williams said. "Just the fact that you play freelance doesn't mean that people don't have assignments. It's easier than it would be if you're running a completely structured set, but it's still not very easy."

Williams is not concerned with whether the Jayhawks come out on ton Saturday.
Leading the new offense will be freshman point guard Jeff Boschee. A McDonald's All-American, Boschee will get an opportunity to start in his debut game for Kansas because of the injuries to others.
The Jayhawks will use Saturday as an opportunity to try out their motion offense, which is less structured than the offenses they've run.
"If it's just that you're going to play freelance then Jeff [Boschee] and Ryan [Robertson] could play the same position as Eric Chenowith."
California native Eric Chenowith, sophomore center, said he was looking forward to the opportunity to play the former Bruins who had recruited him while he was at Villa Park (Calif) High School.
"He's played well. I've been pleased with him," Williams said. "My biggest concern, I want him to do all the things I want him to do, but I want him to play. A lot of times with freshman, particularly at a point guard spot, they are thinking so much that they forget to be basketball players."
If the Jayhawks do lose on Saturday, it will not affect their home-court winning streak because it is an exhibition game.
hawks should have a better idea about how they'll fare against defending champions Kentucky Dec. 1. The All-Stars lost to Kentucky, 103-74. Tuesday night. Rhode Island defeated the All-Stars, 93-75, Monday night.

Preseason basketball
Baylor women look to improve this year
Women's team hopes to make school's first NCAA Tourney bid

the preseason Big 12 coaches' poll. "everybody has to be ready to step up to the plate now," said senior Kacy Moffitt. "It's all talk right now, we've got to prove it and live up to the expectations."
Those expectations are most likely a combination of all of the above. Webb and Moffitt form one of the Big 12's best duos, and Hogg's coaching resume includes two national championships and 307 wins in 11 seasons at Louisiana Tech.
"I'd rather have high expectations than no expectations at all," Hogg said.
Doing it means making it to the first NCAA Tournament in the school's history. And that goal seems more attainable than ever for the Lady Bears with Hogg at the helm.
"Things are beginning to roll," Hogg said. "What has me believing the things that this team can possibly do, we've come along quicker than we anticipated."
One of the most personable coaches in the conference — Hogg's press conference at Big 12 Media Day was punctuated by one-liners — Hogg has the confli-
dence of her players.
"She has molded everyone on this team." Webb said. "Off the court, she's like your mom, she always has our best interests at heart."
Baylor will look for Moffitt and Webb to handle the bulk of the scoring load, and junior Toya Ellis also returns after scoring 13.3 points per game last season.
Baylor's roster this season includes seven freshmen. Danielle Crockrom and Tara Eackles may make the biggest impact of the incoming group.
Monica Arnold, 6-2 sophomore, will likely be asked to fill the starting role of Tasia Wright, a senior last year.
The arrival of the 6-6 Eackles after a medical redshirt last season is especially anticipated in Waco because it should free Moffitt from having to play around the basket.
"You make your own minutes," Hogg said. "I told her the other day, 'sweetheart, if you don't play defense you're going to sit next to me.'"
That doesn't guarantee Eackles any playing time, though.
Hogg was quick to point out that Eackles has made a lot of
improvements since a year ago.
Preview
"Honest to goodness." Hogg said, "she literally cried after our first practice last year. If you print that, she may quit on me, but this year she's made it through just fine."
DONNA MAYS
Hogg: Has high expectations for team this season.
The Bears will need Eackles to play against some of the league's taller players, such as Kansas State's 6-6 Olga Firsova.
BEARS
"I was just telling the girls," Hogg said, "I saw that girl from KState, and she's so tall I told them that we're going to have to put rockets in our shoes in order to be able to compete in this league."

Replacement, change challenge Bears team
Coach confident about season despite loss of key player
By Kevin C. Wilson
Associate sports editor
Baylor head coach Harry Miller has been asked the same question all summer: How can you replace Brian Skinner? Despite losing the school's all-time leading rebounder and third all-time scorer, Miller remains optimistic about his first season without the services of his All-Conference center.
"There is life after Brian Skinner." Miller said. "I think we're going to play well. We've got the deepest, most experienced, most athletic team that we have had at Baylor University."
SIR BENNIE E. ABUGHAZI
Although the Bears must replace threestarters and more than 63percent of last season's team scoring, Miller has something that was missing from last year's team experienced depth.
Miller: Thinks that team will survive without Skinner.
Eight letter-winners are returning, including two starters, and Miller plans to make some alterations to better suit this year's personnel.
"We're really excited about this team," Miller said. "I think you'll see us do more pressing, we have changed our offense to accommodate the type of players we have. We've got a lot of long, lanky greyhoundish type of players that can really run and jump. We have geared our offense to fit those type of players."
game last season, said at times he struggled last year.
One of those players is junior Jamie Kendrick. After showing flashes of brilliance last season, the 6-foot-8 inch forward is expected to raise his game to the next level.
Kendrick, who averaged 6.0 points and 3.9 rebounds per
"I think the expectations got to me," Kendrick said. "I felt uncomfortable on the court, at
times I would hesitate to shoot. This year I have to play more consistent.
PETER HUSTON
Miller said that he is expecting more than consistency fr o m Kendrick this year.
Skinner: Was Baylor's all-time leading rebounder.
"I think you'll see a
breakout season for players like Jamie Kendrick," Miller said. "He's really playing extremely well. I think he's one of the better players in the league."
Another player that will be expected to step up his game is junior Leon Morris. The 6-6 guard is the Bears leading returning scorer and rebounder from last season, with averages of 6.3 points and 4.9 rebounds per game.
Junior Kish Lewis, standing at 6-7, will have the daunting task of replacing Skinner at center this season, after averaging 5.8 points and 4.7 rebounds in 18 games last season. Forward Gabe Ramirez will join Lewis and Kendrick on the Bears front line. The 6-7 senior started 14 of the 25 games played last season and contributed 5.1 points and 3.3 rebounds per game.
Newcomer Tevis Stukes is expected to challenge junior B.J. Sellers for the starting point guard position.
Despite being picked to finish in a tie with Texas A&M for last place in the Big 12 Conference, Miller said that the preseason rankings rarely are correct.
"The first year in the league, we finished eighth or ninth and we were picked to finish last." Miller said. "Last year, we were picked eleventh and we finished fifth. I'm not saying we're going to continue up the ladder, but I do think we will be a lot more competitive than people think."

Quarterbacks face trials of football season
Seasoned players prove more effective than touted rookies
The Associated Press
This NFL season was expected to be about four quarterbacks: John Elway and Dan Marino in the twilight of their careers; Peyton Manning and Ryan Leaf in the dawn of theirs.
To some extent it is. Elway is leading the defending champion Denver Bron
cos toward the NFL's first unbeaten season in 26 years. Manning and Leaf are, as expected, undergoing normal rookie traivals.
Manning: Is experi-
encing normal
rookie problems.
PETER BELONGS TO LEYTON.
But halfway home, they are joined by unexpected heroes at quarterback, such as Doug Flutie, Randall Cunningham, Vinny Testaverde, Charlie Batch and Donald Hollas.
And Manning and Leaf are joined in adversity by Kerry Collins, who two years ago looked like a rising star.
"It gives me a thrill just to watch that little guy run onto the field," Ralph Wilson, owner of the Buffalo Bills, said of Flutie, who at 36 has come back from eight years of exile in Canada and become the centerpiece in a five-game winning streak.
Some highlights and low lights
QUARTERBACKS: Five of the top six quarterbacks in the NFL rankings are 35 or older — Cunningham, Flutie, Testaverde, Steve Young and Elway.
"Nobody's giving quarterbacks time to develop now," said George Young, the league's vice president for football operations and general manager of the Giants for 19 years. "These kids get thrown right in and look bad."
That refers to Manning and Leaf, the first two picks in the draft, and Batch, who got the Lions' job after Scott
Mitchell threw away Detroit's second game of the season. Batch played well for five weeks, then threw three interceptions and lost a fumble in the first half against Arizona last week.
They're not alone in having trouble. So are Jake Plummer of Arizona, Danny Kanell of the Giants, Bobby Hoying of Philadelphia, Trent Dilfer of Tampa Bay, and Gus Froster and Trent Green of Washington.
But none has had as bad a season as Collins, who was the quarterback at Carolina who lead the team to the NFC title game two years ago.
With the Panthers 0-4, Collins went to Coach Dom Capers and asked to be benched. Capers went a step further — he cut him, Collins, signed by New Orleans, returned to Carolina last Sunday. Although he didn't play, he was booed and then arrested Sunday night for driving under the influence.
Three of the successes began the year as backups.
Cunningham was out of football in 1996, running a marble and granite business in Las Vegas. He took control for Minnesota in Week 2 when Brad Johnson broke his ankle. The Vikings are 7-1.
Another Johnson who apparently is healthy but won't get his job back is Rob.
Obtained by the Bills from Jacksonville and signed to a $25 million, five-year deal, he bruised his ribs in the fourth game. The 5-foot-10 Flutie, banished to Canada for being too short eight years ago, took control and has demonstrated the same magic that won him the Heisman Trophy in 1984, leading Buffalo to four wins.
restaverde is 5-0 for the Jets, and his touchdown to interceptions ratio is 12.2, which is a major turnaround for a guy who in 1988 threw a modern NFL record 35 interceptions.
THE RAIDERS: Last year, the Raiders were 4-12 under Joe Bugel. Under 35-year-old Jon Gruden, they are 6-2, led by a defense that was last in the NFL last season and is now second.
Innen there's Hollis, a 31-year-old quarterback who in eight seasons has been cut by the Bengals, Lions and Oilers. He was inactive for all 16 games with the Raiders last season and had
But he took control for injured Jeff George with the Raiders 3-2, and they've won three straight games, an interesting comparison to George, whose career winning percentage is below.400.
thrown just two regular-season passes in the last six seasons.
The Raiders have been ignored nationally because of the Broncos, who are 8-0 and have a good shot to become the first unbeaten team since the 1972 Dolphins. Still, Oakland should make the playoffs for the first time since 1993, barring a dive such as the one in 1995, when Oakland started 8-2 and finished 8-8.
HALF-SEASON AWARDS:
MVP: 1. Terrell Davis, Denver, on a record pace with 1,150 rushes rushing in half a season. 2. Steve Young, San Francisco. 3. Doug Flutie, Buffalo.

Bearcats lose scholarships, receive two-year probation
The Associated Press.
The university avoided a postseason ban and was cleared to reinstate assistant coach John Loyer, who was involved in some of the major violations.
CINCINNATI — Cincinnati lost three men's basketball scholarships and was put on two years' probation by the NCAA yesterday for wide-ranging violations in coach Bob Huggins' program.
"I feel very bad about it particularly because it's affected people's lives," Huggins said. "I think it's affected the university—I feel bad about that.
Huggins, who was not named directly in any of the dozens of violations, expected less severe sanctions. The university will not appeal the NCAA's findings.
"There were a lot of mistakes made by a lot of people. I don't think you can narrow it down to one or two people."
"There were a lot of mistakes made by a lot of people. I don't think you can narrow it down to one or two people."
The NCAA maintained there was a lack of institutional control, resulting in violations including Loyer, Huggins' top assistant.
The Bearcats will lose three scholarships between 1998 and 2001 and will be limited in their recruiting.
Bob Huggins
Cincinnati is the second Conference USA school to face the NCAA's judgment in the last three months.
Huggins top assistant University president Joseph Steger said Loyer would remain on paid leave while the administration decided whether he had violated the university's code of conduct with his involvement in the infractions. A decision on whether to reinstate him could be reached within a week or two, he said.
Bearcats coach
Louisville's basketball team was banned from postseason play for one year and the university received three years' probation last September. Louisville has appealed part of the decision.
The sanctions against Cincinnati are in addition to the recruiting restrictions the university put in place last summer as part of a self-imposed one-year probation.
"It is a serious case," said Yvonne Slatton, acting head of the NCAA's Committee on Infractions. "We considered it a serious case, and I think the penalties imposed are consistent with that."
In its report yesterday, the committee decided that more punishment was warranted in addition to the self-imposed probation given the significant violations over a lengthy period of time.
If any further violations occur within the next five years, the program will be subject to more severe penalties under the NCAA's repeat-violator provisions.
The sanctions came 22 months after the university began looking into the eligibility of point guard Charles
Williams, an investigation that expanded and found numerous problems in the program.
Loyer, linked to some of the most severe violations involving Williams, has remained on paid leave during the investigation. If he is reinstated by the university, he would not be allowed to recruit off campus for one year.
year.
Cincinnati's problems were first uncovered during the 1996-97 basketball season when questions were raised about Williams' eligibility.
in the months that followed, the university uncovered violations involving a manager, Loyer, boosters and players. The manager was fired, Layer placed on leave, players suspended and the program's supervision tightened.
Athletic director Bob Goin withdrew the university's admission to some of the violations and contested the lack-of control allegation. He also imposed a one-year probation — essentially, a limit on recruiting — and hoped that would appease the association.
The NCAA's conclusion that Huggins' program lacked institutional control left it subject to major penalties. The university responded by doing an about-face last June in hopes of softening the blow.
The NCAA A's Committee on Infractions heard testimony last August.
williams received a one-year suspension from the NCAA for receiving improper academic and financial assistance. He withdrew from the school and filed a lawsuit claiming the university should have followed the NCAA rules.

Doug Flutie to face Jets in New York
When Boston College's Doug Flutte threw the desperation pass that upset Miami on the day after Thanksgiving in 1984, Vinny Testaverde was a redshirt quarterback for the Hurricanes.
Buffalo has won five straight, meaning it's due to lose. Only dominant teams win that many, and Buffalo hardly is dominant.
JETS. 20-16
On Sunday, Flutie and Testaverde, two of the pleasant surprises of this NFL season, meet at Giants Stadium. Flutie is back from eight years of exile in Canada, and Testaverde is having a career season for the New York Jets. Even more important, Flutie's Bills and Testaverde's Jets are part of a four-way tie for first in the AFC East.

Velvet director digs deep; not worth weight in gold
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Velvet Goldmine hits its peak early on — before the opening credits, in fact.
Before this saga about '70s glam rockers gets rolling, a black prologue card flashes on the screen:
"Although what you are about to see is a work of fiction, it should be played at maximum volume."
And loud it is. What it doesn't contain is a reason for the audience to care about its smarmy, selfish characters. Like Oliver Stone's The Doors, another movie about excessive rock stars, Velvet Goldmine veers from social satire to drug parable to sex opera — rarely succeeding in its efforts.
The movie also is about the relationship between singers David Bowie and Iggy Pop, though the uninformed viewer won't know that. "Bowie" is called Brian Slade (Jonathan Rhys-Meyers), and the

Rated: "R" for glitter and nude punk rockers
"Iggy" clone (Ewan McGregor) is a long-haired screecher known as Curt Wild.
Why the name change? Writer-director Todd Haynes couldn't obtain the rights to Bowie's and Iggy's music. As a result, Velvet Goldmine never feels like anything other than a jokey, half-completed film. It's like watching a production of Hamlet without Hamlet.
The movie begins in the early '80s as a young London journalist (Christian Bale) receives an unusual assignment: Find out what happened to Brian Slade, the glam rocker who faked onstage death 10 years before.
Slade's ex-wife (Toni Collette)
recalls Brian's first meeting with Curt Wild. After lulling the audience to sleep with his wistful tunes, Wild electrifies the crowd with scorching punk music and frontal nudity. Afterward Brian approaches Wild, offering to produce his next album.
The construction of Velvet Goldmine mirrors another film, Orson Welles' Citizen Kane. In both cases, a journalist attempts to piece together the life of a powerful, elusive celebrity.
The difference here is that Charles Foster Kane was an enigmatic, brooding and complex figure. Slade never comes across as anything other than a clinging, drug-snorting pop star.
It would have been better had Haynes dismissed his flashback structure in favor of a more streamlined film that explained the appeal, success and death of glam rock. The live performances in Velvet Goldmine occasionally liven up the proceedings but also highlight the movie's hollow feel.

U2's double disc represents band's evolution
By T. R. Miller Kansan music fiend
This dual-CD exploration through the U2 music archives pays tribute to not only the band's roots, but it represents the image and sound transformation so many bands from the 80s have made in this decade. Most "best of" compilations seem to come after a musical group has entered a new stage or era of their music. Many critics and long-time fans长乐 for the desperate and angry tone of U2's earlier ventures. Age and money have softened the Irish band's political message and modern technology has pumped up the sequencing and vocal stylistics. Bono is now glam, and the band members seem to all have super-model girlfriends. But in the beginning, U2 was a bunch of smart punks from Dublin with a lot of their minds and some musical instruments in hand.
THE BEST OF 1980-1990
Kansam rating:
***** out of *******
The first CD hosts the greatest hits of U2's earlier career. The band's breakthrough album, "The Joshua Tree," is well-represented with such songs as "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For" and "With or Without You." The LP version of "Sunday Bloody Sunday" with the screeching violin background is my personal favorite. All of the greatest hits came straight off their original album, except for a live version of "I Will Follow." The CD jacket features several early 1980s pictures. It's amazing to remember back to a skinny Bono, with his high-pitched screech on "Sunday" or the rhythm and blues interpretations on "Angel of Harlem" and "Desire."
The first CD includes the "Sweet
est Thing," which Bono wrote for his wife as an apology for missing a birthday. The song has never made an album cut and is the only single not previously released.
The second CD contains B-sides, showing U2's early experimentations. From the dreamy instrumental "Bass Trap" to several renditions, including the Righteous Brother's "Unchained Melody," this CD seems to hint to U2's current high-tech, rock/pop sound. Some highlights are the emotional "Love Comes Tumbling" and "Trash, Trampoline and The Party Girl," which appeared on U2's "Under A Blood Red Sky." The B-sides are definitely the darker and abstract side of the band, and most come, ironically, from the late 80s when U2 began to feel international commercial success.
U2
THE BEST OF 1980-1990
I wanted desperately to give this album a five-star rating. The album is a must-have for any music lover
and a dream for any U2 fan who remembers the band's raw, young sound. The only thing missing is the rocking guitar-driven "Bullet the Blue Sky," which showcases The Edge's quintessential and recognizable sound. Nevertheless, the album is a musical museum for younger listeners and a nostalgic trip for the fans that loved U2 before they went from rags to riches.
Siege starts strong; loses luster at end

Kansan movie critic
With The Siege, director Edward Zwick has handed us a ballpark Wiener dressed up as filet mignon.
And it does. In fact, *The Siege* wallops the audience so heavily with its message that it makes
The thriller, about what happens when federal authorities respond to a series of terrorist attacks on U.S. soil, unfolds at a breathless pace and keeps promising to deliver the rarest of things: A Hollywood pot boiler that actually has something on its mind.
Oliver Stone's films seem like a standard of moderation. What a shame that Zwick has forgotten the subtlety and restraint that marked his earlier films Glory and Courage Under Fire.

Anthony Hubbard, a hard-lined officer who works an anti-terrorism beat for the Bureau.
Hubbard's team investigates a string of bombings in downtown New York that appear to be the retaliatory work of a fundamentalist Palestinian group in the United States.
Under orders from the president, Gen. William Devereaux, Bruce Willis, wearing a toupee and acting as mean as can be, institutes a state of martial law in New York and herds the city's Arab population into a sports stadium like cattle. Devereaux figures that it's worth fudging a few thousand civil rights if it'll weed out the handful of bombers.
But Zwick missed a key opportunity to create at least one fully dimensioned Arab character. Washington is given a Lebanese partner, played by Lebanese-American actor Tony Shalhoub, but he's more of a puppet of the script than a self-sufficient character.
Zwick ultimately is too concerned with supplying Washington with speeches about the First Amendment and the values of our country to allow his story to unfold on its own terms. By overstating its mantras while simultaneously heating up the action, The Siege pulls itself apart.

Starr announced as major witness
Clinton to address allegations formally
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee announced today that prosecutor Kenneth Starr would be his only major witness in impeachment hearings, and he asked President Clinton to formally admit or deny allegations about his conduct with Monica Lewinsky.
Rep. Henry Hyde, R-III, said he was sending the president a letter today asking him to admit or deny certain facts that appear to be established by the record put together by Starr. While Hyde said the president is free to dispute whatever he wants. Clinton's agreement to those allegations would allow the committee to narrow the issues and bring the matter to a close more quickly.
Presidential press secretary Joe Lockhart said Clinton's lawyers still were digesting Hyde's letter
and had no immediate comment. On talk of expediting the inquiry, Lockhart pronounced the streamlined hearings to be a mostly positive development but suggested the White House wanted to wait and
see Hyde's words turn to action.
"The track record to date isn't good on this particular issue," Lockhart said.
Starr, who has been sought more by Democrats seeking to focus on the prosecutor's
Hyde: Says he is sending a letter to President Clinton;
conduct, would testify Nov. 19.
Hyde told Republican committee members Wednesday that he also was considering calling an expert witness, who would help the panel decide whether Clinton committed perjury.
Speaking at a Chicago news con
ference, Hyde raised the possibility of the impeachment case ending in a censure. He cautioned that any such deal could come only after the House approved articles of impeachment.
At the White House, Lockhart measured Hyde's announcement against the three standards that Clinton had set for any impeachment proceeding; expeditious, constitutional and fair.
situations in the office.
"It looks like a process that will be done promptly and expeditiously, so that's positive. On the constitutional front, I still think there has not been a serious attempt to answer our concern that the standards of impeachment ... haven't been discussed so we still feel like we've come up short there." Lockhart said.
"On fairness ... I think it depends on how things play out."
Hyde said his committee's inquiry would not be affected by Democrats' surprisingly strong showing in Tuesday's election.
"It would be easy, we could just look away from this awful mess

and let it disappear, but our duty demands that we look forward," Hyde said.
He said he hoped to have the committee's work wrapped up by year's end with Clinton's cooperation.
If the cooperation isn't forthcoming, he cautioned, he would continue as long as it took, to vindicate the rule of law and to follow the truth, wherever it led them."
Explaining the streamlined hearings, Hyde said, "The most relevant witnesses have already testified at length about the matters in issue."
During Starr's testimony, he also might answer questions about other parts of his investigation of Clinton, including the firing of the White House travel office staff or alleged misuse of FBI files by White House staff, Hyde said.
Scientists make first step in tissue replacement
WASHINGTON — Researchers have isolated and grown human embryonic master cells in a laboratory, a key step toward possibly someday creating heart, kidney and other tissue to replace diseased parts of the body.
Reaching a goal sought by hundreds of scientists for years, researchers at the University of Wisconsin in Madison, and at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore independently cultured human stem cells, the foundation source of cells that form all of the body's parts during gestation.
The Associated Press
The scientists also demonstrated that the cell lines would transform into specific cell types, with specific functions, such as muscle, bone or nerves.
"It opens the possibility for some
dramatic new transplantation therapies," said James A. Thomson of the University of Wisconsin author of a study to be published in the journal Science.
The research demonstrates for the first time that it's possible to culture human cells that have the ability to develop into a wide variety of human tissues, said John Gearhart of John Hopkins, author of a study that will be published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
"For the first time, we can start considering this as a source of cell or tissue types for transplant," Gearhart said.
Although it may be a decade or more before any patient benefits from the work, Gearhart and Thomson said that stem cells potentially could be used for such purposes as:
Growing nerve cells to repair
spinal injuries and restore function to paralyzed limbs.
Growing bone marrow to replace blood-forming organs damaged by disease or radiation. Bone marrow replacement has become an increasingly common therapy for some types of cancers.
- Making the islet cells that produce insulin and, thus, creating a lifelong treatment for diabetes.
This could be a cure, said Thomson.
- Making blood cells genetically altered to resist specific diseases, such as HIV, to replace diseased blood cells.
Growing entire whole organs is another ball game, and science is far from ready to attempt that, said Gearhart.
Both Thomson and Gearhart said using their discovery to treat patients was years away, but they argue the work could progress
faster if the government lifted its ban on financing human embryo research.
Although researchers long ago isolated stem cells from mice and other laboratory animals, work on human stem cells has been slowed by controversy. Some anti-abortion groups oppose human embryo research because they consider such an embryo to be a human life.
David O'Steen, executive director of the National Right to Life committee, said his group believes that "members of the human family certainly should not be used for harmful experimentation, or destroyed based on their method of creation." He did not specifically address the new research.
"Within my lifetime there will be therapies based on this work," said Thomson. "If there was public funding, it would come a lot sooner."
Afghanistan militia refuses to extradite suspected terrorist
The Associated Press
ISLAMABAD, Pakistan—Afghanistan's hard-line Taliban militia vowed to protect suspected terrorist Osama bin Laden at any cost, saying there was no evidence the millionaire was behind the U.S.
embassy bombings in Africa.
محمد بن محمد بن عباس بن محمد بن محمد
bin Laden: is wanted in connection with two bombings
outside the United States. The State Department also announced a reward of up to $5 million for bin Laden's capture.
A representative for the Taliban religious army, which rules 90 percent of Afghanistan and imposed a strict version of Islamic law, said they would protect the Saudi dissident, who was living in the country.
"The United States is hostile to Osama, and it is wrong for them to do anything without any proof, and they have no case against Osama," said Abdul Hai Muttimayan, who was reached by satellite telephone in Kandahar in southern Afghanistan.
"We cannot allow any harm to come to Osama because he is a Muslim and a guest."
Washington blames bin
Laden's group, al Qaeda, for the bombings of U.S. embassies in East Africa that killed 224 people, including 12 Americans, and injured an estimated 5.000 people.
The United States retaliated Aug. 20, firing Tomahawk cruise missiles at suspected bin Laden training camps in eastern Afghanistan. At least 26 people were killed, but damage to the area was not considered extensive.
The Taliban said bin Laden would not be extradited. They have set up a judicial inquiry to accept evidence of bin Laden's involvement in terrorist activity and promised to prosecute him if the evidence warrants it.
In Pakistan, an Islamic militant group threatened yesterday to retaliate if bin Laden was arrested and described him as a hero to Muslims worldwide.
"It is a challenge to the entire Muslim world. Bin Laden is a hero of the Muslim world," said Omar Warsi, a leader of Pakistan's militant Sunni Muslim group, Sipah-e-Sahaba, or Guardians of the Friends of the Prophet. "If anything happens to him, America will be responsible."
Many Sipah-e-Sahaba followers are fighting in neighboring Afghanistan alongside the Taliban.
Embassy officials said no fresh security warnings followed Wednesday's indictment. Security measures already in place include cement barricades blocking the road leading to the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad and razor-sharp barbed wire topping the brick-walled compound.
Tropical Storm Mitch plows through Florida
The Associated Press
MIAMI — A revived Tropical Storm Mitch lashed southern Florida with heavy rain and wind yesterday, just weeks after the region endured the wrath of Hurricane Georges.
Hardest hit were the Florida Keys, where tornadoes touched down, mobile homes flipped, trees fell and power lines snapped. One highway death was attributed to heavy storms.
The scenic island chain also bore the brunt of Georges, which destroyed or damaged 4,000 homes when it struck Sept. 25.
"The water is getting ready to come over the jetty," said Key Largo resident Charlene Rowell, whose family owns Rowell's Marina, where Mitch already had destroyed 11 boats and damaged dozens more.
The onetime hurricane had weakened significantly after killing at least 9,000 people during a rampage through Central
America last week. But it revived itself to tropical-storm strength while plowing through the Gulf of Mexico toward Florida.
By Wednesday, several tornadoes had touched down in Key Largo and one in Islamorada, said Becky Herrin, a representative for the Monroe County Sheriff's Office.
"It's just Mother Nature doing her thing," said Lee Severino, general manager of the Hampton Inn in Islamorada, which had minor damage to its roof. "This year, we've had two tornadoes and a hurricane come through. I hope we're done."
seven people were treated Wednesday for storm-related injuries.
Wind gusts reached about 70 mph near Miami, where flooding slowed morning commuters.
State officials opened three storm shelters Wednesday in the Keys, housing some 200 people. More than 100 people stayed overnight in the Key Largo shelter, said Irene Toner, operations manager for Monroe County Emergency Management A tropical storm warning extended from the Florida Keys north to Tarpon Springs on Florida's Gulf coast, and north to New Smyrna Beach on the Atlantic coast. Western Cuba also was under a tropical storm warning, as were the northwestern Bahamas.

WASHINGTON — The nation's unemployment rate held steady at 4.6 percent in October despite sluggish growth in employers' payrolls and the seventh job decline at factories in nine months.
The unemployment rate held at the same rate as September, though employers added just 116,000 positions to payrolls, the Labor Department said today.
Though the payroll figure was at least 80,000 smaller than economists had anticipated, they said the report showed that the American economy was holding up fairly well against the slump in Asia and other developing nations.
"Job growth is softening," said economist Oscar Gonzalez of John Hancock in Boston. "Considering that we are carrying the global economy on our shoulders, we are still running pretty fast."
Though the unemployment rate remains low by historical standards, it is up significantly from April and May, when it touched a 28-year low of 4.3 percent.
The weak payroll number boosted stock and bond prices because it provided unanticipated evidence the economy is weakening. That leaves open the strong possibility of another interest-rate reduction from the Federal Reserve next week.
Separately, major retailers in New York reported that consumer spending remained healthy in October. Though merchants remain cautious about the prospects for holiday sales, they said October receipts were strong, especially at discount stores such as Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and Kmart Corp.
At mid afternoon, the Dow Jones average of industrial stocks was up about 40 points. It had started the day by declining
Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said today that he saw evidence that investor fright was lessening. That's partly what had prompted the Fed to twice cut short-term rates — on Sept. 29 and Oct. 15. But Greenspan said nothing to directly signal whether the central bank would cut rates a third time when it meets next on Nov. 17.

Redshirt freshman to lead 'Huskers against Cyclones
Christi Wagenaar, the No. 4 seed,
de defeated Jayasree Kunilla of St.
Louis 6-2, 6-3 and improved to 6-5
for the season.
The Associated Press
The three Jayhawks were scheduled to play yesterday in the qualifying round of 16, and the remainder of the Kansas team was scheduled to participate in the first round of singles as well. The results were not available at press time.
Kansan staff report
LINCOLN, Neb. — Eric Crouch knew on Monday he would start this weekend's game at Iowa State. So for now, there seems to be a little more stability at quarterback for Nebraska.
But unlike earlier in the year, when coach Frank Solich typically named a starter late in the week. Crouch knew early that he would call the signals tomorrow.
Crouch, a redshirt freshman from Omaha, Neb., will lead the Cornhuskers against the Cyclones (2-6, 0-5 Big 12 Conference), it will be his third start of the season.
"It makes a difference," Crouch said. "If you don't know who's starting, then during the week it can get kind of competitive and you're afraid to make a mistake in practice."
Crouch has enjoyed more of a comfort zone as No. 14 Nebraska (7-2, 3-2) prepares to visit Ames, Iowa, and that's a good sign for the 'Huskers. Solich is desperately seeking someone who can move the team.
"The quarterback can make the difference," Solich said. "Believe me, I would have liked to have settled on a quarterback for the
very first ball game and have it continue through the whole year."
Senior Monte Christo started last week's 20-16 loss to Texas, and Crouch relieved him in the second quarter, rushing for 108 yards on 17 carries and scoring on a 38-yard run.
The quarterback juggling began after starter Bobby Newcombe partially tore a knee ligament in the season opener.
Christo was ineffective against Texas, and Newcombe is seeking additional medical advice about his knee this weekend; Crouch was the only logical choice.
When Newcombe returned after three games, he wasn't nearly as mobile as before the injury, and the Nebraska offense struggled in wins against Oklahoma State and Missouri and losses to Texas &M and Texas.
Arnough Nebraska's dreams of a national title have evaporated with two defeats, Crouch knows he has a chance this weekend to establish himself as the leader for wherever the "Huskers go from here.
"I still want to play a lot of football this year," Crouch said. "I want to win every game. It's not a deal where two games have been lost and the season is over."
Royals broadcaster unexpectedly fired
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The radio team that has called Kansas City Royals games for 25 years has been broken up, with Fred White getting the ax.
White's returning partner, Denny Matthews, was baffled by the firing, which breaks up the American League's longest-running broadcast team.
The firing was announced Wednesday by the Royals and Entercom, the company that holds radio broadcast rights for Royals games on a network of more than 75 stations.
"It's very disheartening," said White, who got the news Tuesday. "They basically just told me they wanted to go a new direction. It was hard to hear that, but I will
survive and get through this."
Matthews, whose own contract was extended for another season, was shocked.
"When Fred called me to tell me they were going to let him go, I was speechless," said Matthews, who has broadcast Royals games since their first season in 1969. "It's baffling, Really baffling."
Bill White, program director for KCMO and KMZ and director of on-air talent for Royals radio broadcasts, said the decision was difficult and probably won't be popular with some fans.
"Iexpect there will be some backlash from the fans," said White, no relation to the fired sportscaster.
Fred is an excellent broadcaster and very professional.
and we truly wish him the best," he added. "We just felt the broadcast needed some upgrading in certain areas."
Others involved in the decision included Herk Robinson. Rovals general manager;
Mike Levy,
Royals vice president of marketing and communication; and Bob Zuroweste, Entercom's Kansas City general manager.

A year ago, unusually long deliberations preceded the broadcast team's renewal for the 1998 season, the first in Entercom's three-year contract with the Royals.
"it's been kind of messy for several years, it seems," Matthewsaid.
Levy said that from the time Entercom got the rights to Royals games there had been discussions that the broadcasts had become a little stale.
"As a radio station, our job is to try to attract new listeners and new fans," said Bill White. "And unfortunately, if the team isn't playing well, it comes down to a talent issue (in the booth). We just felt we needed to go a new direction and add some new energy to the broadcast."
White has worked college football and basketball for CBS, NBC, TVS, Raycom and ESPN. He said he would do college basketball this winter for ESPN regional, and had some out-of-town possibilities for the future.

Building a great Sixth of 10
Independent studies moves out of trailers behind Union
New location better than old despite being off-campus
(USPS 650-640)
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
After more than 15 years in a "temporary" location — the trailers next to the Kansas Union — the independent study department wants to let students know about its new home.
The department moved in August to 1515 St. Andrews Dr., the former Maupintour building. The offcampus location is near West Campus, one block west of Kasold Drive.
The University of Kansas purchased the building this year to consolidate the continuing education department, which had been scattered in as many as five buildings on and off campus. The independent study department is part of continuing education.
Sandy Hick, independent study registrar, said the move was initially somewhat inconvenient for students because they identified the department with its old location. The move also took the department off campus, decreasing accessibility by foot.
But Hick said she set up a temporary office in the Union for the convenience of students during the first two weeks of the semester. She posted signs at the old office directing neo-
the old ones setting people to the new location as well.
Nancy Colyer, independent study director, said, "We had a few bumps and bruises along the way, but things are going very well now."
The department is making every effort to make the transition easier for students. To notify people of the move, Hick said the department placed newspaper advertisements, sent notice in mailings to current independent study

Drop-off location at the information desk on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union
About half of the program's 2,200 participants each year are KU students
To enroll in independent study, students may drop by the new location, call for more information at 864-4440, or view the department Web site at http://www.kumc.edu/kuce/isc.
Now the department has arranged for students to be able to drop off independent study assignments at the information desk on the fourth floor of the Union. A courrier picks up the assignments daily and delivers them to the independent study office.
By next semester, Hick hopes to have a 24-hour drive-through drop box at the new location. The department also is considering opening a satellite office in the Kansas Union, where students could pick up information about independent study offerings as well as drop off assignments.
Irene Ratzlaff, Buhler senior and independent study student, said she was pleased that the department had moved from its previous location.
"The parking is more convenient," Ratzlaff said.
"The building is beautiful, and it doesn't smell funny."
Colyer and Hick said that they struggled with foul odors and inconsistent heating and cooling at the old location.
The trailers, called annex buildings, are being razed to make room for a new parking garage.
More than 2,200 students participate in the University's Independent Study program every year. Hick said about half of that number is made up of current KU students, while the other half is made up of high schools students from around Kansas, students from other colleges and international students.
Hick attributed the success of the program to the University's good reputation and the course offerings available through independent study. She said the University was designated by the Kansas Board of Regents as the state's sole provider of independent study courses.
Watson Library to close on Friday
Blown transformer will be replaced
By Mariana Paiva Kansan staff writer
Students who have class-project deadlines approaching should not plan to do their research at Watson Library from noon Friday to noon Sunday.
The library will be closed for 48 hours this weekend while its electrical transformer will be replaced.
The library's transformer blew out Oct. 29. The library was closed at 4:30 that afternoon and reopened the next morning powered by a back-up generator.
that the transformer cost the University $2,600,the money needed to run the generator. The generator uses 22 gallons of fuel each hour of operation,and each gallon costs 67 cents.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said that the University found a new transformer in Lyons and has paid $8,000 for it. Porter estimated
Rob Melton, libraries publication coordinator, said the library needed to be closed during the replacement to guarantee public safety. The transformer will be replaced during the weekend to disturb fewer students and staff, he said. He said that if the University's facilities operations department finished the work ahead of schedule, there was a chance that the library would not be closed for the entire 48 hours.
"If we think the library is safe for people to access it, the building will operate in normal hours," Melton said.
Watson employees put up several fliers explaining why the library changed its schedule. Also, faculty and teaching assistants received e-mail messages from library officials asking permission to move reserve mer terial this weekend
LIBRARY HOURS
What: The library will be closed from noon Friday to noon Sunday to replace its electrical transformer.
Information: Students should call 864-8900 or 864-3506 for up-to-date information about the closing.
Faculty who want to make arrangements to move reserve material should contact Joe Orosco at 864-8982, Sarah Couch at 864-8979 or Julie Rholes at 864-8995 by 5 p.m. on Wednesday.
to another location on campus.
The message also asked the faculty and teaching assistants to remind their students to do their research in advance, because people won't have access to Watson periodicals or books this weekend.
it is estimated that more than 1,270 people use Watson daily, and some who have projects due next week were not
pleased with the library's decision to close during the transformer replacement.
Abbi Balsmeier, Newton junior, said that she hadn't noticed the signs and that she thought many other students would not know that the library will be closed.
As much as they put the word out, people will still come here and be surprised," she said.
Luca Oreccchini, Rimini, Italy, graduate student, said that he had a project due next week and that he hoped to be able to finish it before the weekend.
"I don't like to study at home because I have everything that I need to study here," he said while studying yesterday in Watson. "But these things happen, and we cannot really blame the library."
Book drops at the front and back doors of Watson Library will remain accessible for returning materials. The other libraries on campus will maintain regular operating hours.

"Jay's perseverantly know if you can say 'I'll be the go-to guy for Gregory,'" Wynn said, going to go out and do what was needed that night. Some rights it may be needed for me to raise 30 of 31 points."
In a game that Kansas coach Roy Williams had called a glorious practice, the Jayhawks struggled against a team composed of former UK LA players and former Kansas player Rex Waitrich, who makes a special appearance for the All-Stars.
"I made the mistake with the team of not being clear enough with what I wanted," Williams said. "I heard it was a glitch-red practice and they taught U.J. and hoorified practice." Kansas jumped out to a 15-2 lead and led 54-12 at the half. The second half was a different story. The Jayhawks came out strong and allowed the All-Stars to pull within one at 82-91. Gregory then responded and scored 11 of the team's final 13.

Signs replace pedestrian crossing signals on Mass
The City of Lawrence removed four pedestrian-crossing traffic signals Friday on Massachusetts Street.
The traffic signals, which were located in the middle of the 700,800,900, and 1000 blocks of Massachusetts Street, allowed pedestrians to cross the street by pressing a button that gave oncoming traffic a red signal.
The signals were replaced with colorful new pedestrian signs that comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Pedestrians still will be able to use the crosswalks at these mid-block locations
David Woosley, city traffic engineer, said that the new signs would make crosswalks safer and more accessible for pedestrians.

Police look into alleged theft at deputy's home
Two unknown men burglarized a Douglas County Sheriff's Deputy's house Thursday afternoon and made off with more than $2,000 in property.
Deputy Steven Freeman, 31, was sleeping when the two suspects cut open a window screen and entered his house at 1727 Maple Court, Lawrence police said.
When he woke up about 2:20 p.m., he discovered the burglary and called the police, who searched the neighborhood.
Police said they discovered that the two suspects had stolen a stereo, speakers, a Nintendo, a shotgun, a gold wedding ring and a small amount of money.
The suspects also stole a bullet-proof vest, but police recovered it in Freeman's yard.
Police are looking for two 6-foot-tall African-American men in their 20s.
A neighbor told police that he had seen the two suspects carrying the shotgun across the lawn, but that he had not thought anything of it until he saw the police cars in front of Freeman's house.
One of the men was wearing a three-quarter-length blue coat, and the other was wearing a three-quarter-length camouflage jacket and a blue baseball cap.
Police are investigating the theft as aggravated burglary.

Forecasters downplay further Kansas floods
AUGUSTA — South-central Kansans continued scrubbing mud stains from their walls and dragging flood-soaked carpet and furniture onto their lawns for removal yesterday.
Despite the threat of rain, forecasters had some words of reassurance for the
region that had suffered an estimated $37.8 million in flood damage in a week. The expected rain would not be enough to trigger another round of flooding.
State officials asked for an expansion of the federal state of disaster, declared Thursday in Butter, Cowley and Sedgwick counties, to include eight more — Chase, Coffey, Franklin, Harvey, Lyon, Neosho, Sumner and Wilson counties.
Disaster declarations make low-interest loans and grants available for repairing damaged homes and businesses.
Matt Brisch, communications director of the Kansas Department of Commerce and Housing, said money from Development Block Grant funds would be used to repair the city's wastewater treatment plant.
At least 1,600 homes were damaged or destroyed in the three hardest-hit counties.

Gingrich mulls future doubts White House run
MECHANICSBURG, Pa. — Newt Gingrich said yesterday that he's given no thought to a run for the presidency since quitting as House speaker but wants to stay active in public life.
Two days after announcing he would quit the speaker's post and abandon his seat in the House, Gingrich appeared relaxed as he paid a birthday visit to his alluring mother at the Country Meadows Assisted Living Center outside Harrisburg, Pa.
Gingrich said he had no word on fellow Republicans' fight to succeed him. He said he had given no thought to running for president and will discuss his future tonight in Washington at a meeting of GOPAC, the Republican fund-raising group of which he once was head.
"In the next couple of years, I want to be an active citizen in public life," said Gingrich. "I'm going to take time off and see America better, do some learning. I love learning."

Gasoline prices tumble because of low demand
CAMARILLO, Calif. — Low crude oil prices and less demand for gasoline pulled down pump prices, which dropped nearly a penny a gallon, an industry analyst said yesterday.
The average price for gasoline, including all grades and taxes, was $1.086 on Friday, down 86 cents from two weeks earlier, according to the Lundberg Survey of 10,000 stations nationwide.
At self-service pumps, regular gasoline was $1.027 per gallon, mid-grade was $1.135 and premium was $1.219. At full-service pumps, regular was $1.463, mid-grade was $1.55 and premium was $1.624.
Prices were down in all regions of the country, industry analyst Triby Lundberg said.
Lundberg said OPEC members and other oil producers are waiting to see if the winter will be cold enough to increase demands for heating oil, which would bolster crude prices.
"But meanwhile, the glut continues for both crude oil and gasoline, and pump prices are still falling," she said.

Iraqi ministers dismiss U.S.military threats
Trade Minister Mohammed Mehdi Saleh said Iraq has suffered for so long under U.N. sanctions that it has nothing to fear from new U.S. threats.
Deputy Prime Minister Tarq Aziz said the government was not moved by last week's Security Council resolution that held Iraq in "flagrant violation" of U.N. edicts for its decision to stop cooperating with weapons inspectors.
He called on the United Nations to lift its ban on the sale of oil — Iraq's economic mainstay — as a start toward the final removal of the embargo.
Iraq announced last month that it was halting cooperation with U.N. weapons inspectors until the Security Council begins moving to lift the embargo.
The Security Council has said the embargo won't be lifted until U.N. inspectors certify that Iraq has eliminated its weapons of mass destruction, as required by U.N. resolutions that ended the Gulf War.

points. Finally relenting on his dunking, Gregory resorted to laving the ball in at the end.
Despite the highlight plays, Williams said he was not pleased with how the team played and could see how far it had to go.
"At that point I got tired of dunking a little bit. "Had had so many," Gregory said. "I don't want people to just look at me as a dunaker, so sometimes I just lay it up. I could've dunked, though."
"Everybody thinks of those highlights and they don't think of all the lowlights. We did some things tonight that a Kansas team never does," Williams said. "We gave up more fast-break baskets than in 11 years of this coaching and that's not an exaggeration. We did a poor job of communicating when we got back, the worst we've ever done. We gave up more three-point plays, we gave up offensive rebounds in the first half. I could give you a long list, but again, it's good. I think it will help us."
Robertson agreed with Williams and was anticipating long practices in the upcoming week.
"Right now, we're not very good," Robertson said. "And coach wants us to come in about an hour earlier than we would normally. I think we need a lot of work."
in his first game for the Jayhawks, freshman Jeff Boschee pushed the Jayhawks at a speed not seen in recent years. Robertson, his upperclassman counterpart, said he was impressed.
"He was pretty good. Hopefully, he'll learn from tonight and realize we need him out on the floor," Robertson said. "As far as being a leader out there and shooting the basketball, I thought he was really good."
Bosche, who as a freshman is not allowed to speak to the media by Williams until after the first game of the season Friday against Gonzaga, had nine points, all from behind the three-point line. He also had seven assists before fouling out with 5:15 remaining.
"I thought Jeff, in the first half, was very good (but) took one bad shot because we shouldn't shoot out side shots over someone's head," Williams said. "He's gotta learn to stay out of foul trouble if he's going to play more than 15 minutes."

Greeks enter Rock Chalk show ideas
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
The planning stages for Rock Chalk Revue are in full swing, even though the show isn't until March 11-13, 1999.
Ten notebooks from sorority and fraternity pairs were submitted Friday afternoon to a panel of Rock Chalk alumni and drama instructors.
Rock Chalk Revue is an annual production by greek members to help raise money to donate to United Way. This year, they hope to raise $50,000.
The notebooks consisted of skit information such as the script, music, set design and costumes. The advisers will select the top five production outlines to participate in the 50th annual show.
Jami Jo Paugh, Independence junior and director of the notebook for Kappa Delta sorority, said that she was happy to finally turn in the notebook the chapter has been working on.
"I don't think any of the directors have slept lately," Paugh said. "It takes a lot of work and planning. We hope that we'll be selected."
Paugh said that Kappa Delta is paired with Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity. Together, the chapters submitted a program about a mythical creature who wonders whether he is really make-believe.
The program ties in with this year's Rock Chalk theme, "Wonders Never Cease."
the five finalists will be announced at 8 p.m. Nov. 23 in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Casting and rehearsal schedules will begin in early December and practice will officially start in mid-January, said John Laing, promotions coordinator of the program.
Laing said that there was a new addition to the program planning this year. A sensitivity panel made up of KU administrators examined the tentative scripts from the chapters to look for issues that could be considered offensive.
"They didn't just look for racial issues or sexual innuendo." Laing said. "They pointed out anything that could be taken bad. We want to keep the show family-oriented."
The formation of a sensitivity panel was in large part because of an incident at last year's show.
A skit performed by Alpha Delta Pi sorority and Lambda Chi Alpha fraternity members, "Don't Drink the Water," was set in the jungle and had a tribal theme. The skit was protested by several campus groups who thought it was racist toward indigenous people.
"If there was an issue that we questioned, we told the directors to consider changing it — maybe it was the language or a costume," said Ann Eversole, Dean of Student Life and one of six panel members. "It wasn't aensure panel, we just looked for issues that might raise some concern."
Laing said that the sensitivity panel would most likely continue to look at the skit outlines in coming years.

Edwards Campus fills area's needs
Since 1995, the graduate-studies campus in Overland Park has increased its master's programs from 10 to 16 and has added one doctoral degree program.
'Students' interest in the University of Kansas' Edwards Campus is booming, and administrators are pleased about it.
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
There are 1,813 students enrolled at the Edwards Campus, which is up 50 percent in the last five years, and those students are now taking 30,000 credit hours of class.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in his 1995 Faculty Convocation speech that a great university recognized its obligation to contribute to an educated work force for the society that supports it.
Hemenway said that a vital function of a metropolitan-area campus was to provide course work that enabled business professionals the opportunity to gain additional training.
"The administration has really stepped up its efforts in the Kansas City area to fulfill the needs of that area," Hemenway said.
"We are continuing to improve the
Those needs, including the training of a well-educated work force, will be even more critical in the future because of growth forecasts for the area, said Dana Klassen, director of campus relations for the Edwards Campus.
Edwards Campus' growth and make sure those needs continue to be met," he said.
Klassen cited recent growth forecasts from the Johnson County Economic Research Institute, which show the greater Kansas City area growing close to a population of 1.8 million by 2001.
"The projection from the research says that the population in Johnson County will grow by 100,000 people in the next 10 years." she said.
This growth also would be supplemented by 97,000 more jobs, she said.
According to the research, a population shift to the southern part of the greater Kansas City area will place the Edwards Campus in the heart of the growth.
Klassen said that Edwards Campus administrators would be looking at adding three or four new programs of study in the fall of 1999.
The campus also could expand in the future to include a second building.
Robert Clark, dean of the Edwards
Campus, said that the campus has planned to build a 55,000-square-foot building that would cost $13 million. Funds for the proposed building would
come from outside contributors.
"It is critical that we show the Kansas City community that we are serious about serving the growing needs of the area," Clark said. "This should be a true partnership with the Greater

Kansas City area — one that will bring greater prosperity for all involved."
He said that the Edwards Campus should continue to grow by two or three new programs of study a year in the future.
"Corporate Kansas City is seeing more leadership from KU administrators, and this brings more research and resources to the University," Clark said.

The conference, which covered the topics of sexual orientation and gender identity policies at colleges and universities, was held at the Kansas Union Saturday and Sunday.
Reece attended the FBI School for Hate Bias Crimes and Washburn University's Hate Crimes Seminar.
Reece said that university officers needed to be aware of the community they serve.
She said that by identifying groups that may become targets of hate crimes, officers could better predict potential problems, such as certain groups being targeted on religious holidays or during
Police also need to be aware that something they might perceive as a small crime, such as rocks thrown through a window, deeply affects the victim because of the crime's bias motivation.
"The law-enforcement community needs to be taught that to this person, this is a major crime," Reece said.
Reece said KU police officers attended a four-hour training session on hate crimes.
However, police cannot battle hate crimes alone. Reece said students had to take an active role in the issue as well. She said students needed to develop a rapport with police and realize that they were there to help.
She said she encouraged officers to spend time in the residence halls to help students see them as allies.
also necessary to report the crime.
Students also should initiate discussion about hate/bias problems with police and student groups, she said. It is
"There's nothing that annoys me worse, that the second I walk in the building, someone says: 'What happened? Who did something wrong?' Reece said.
Mary Renee Smith, a junior at Kansas State University and president of KState's Bisexual, Gay and Lesbian Society said harassed students often were afraid to report incidents.
Students at Bethany College in Lindsborg can use a Crime Stoppers hotline to report incidents, said Cindi White, assistant trainer for athletics at Bethany.
She said the college's police force operated under the residence life department and that officers sat in on the resident assistant selection committee.
"Last year I was an R.A. and if anything did happen, I felt comfortable about going to security officers and having them do something about it," White said.
In the aftermath of a hate crime, Reece said it was important that the university get involved by publicizing the crime, publicly denouncing it and holding seminars to ensure that such incidents be stopped. She said this response had to be immediate.
"There needs to be activity at all levels of the university," she said.

Editorial
Cultural understanding is difficult to teach in University classrooms
The idea that each student can graduate from the University of Kansas with a better understanding of different cultures within the United States is a wonderful ideal.
But in reality, it will be difficult to foster cultural understanding in a classroom setting.
That is what a contingent of people would like to see happen at the University.
The Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising is reviewing a proposal that would add a U.S. Diversity class to University curriculum. Under the proposal, all students seeking bachelor of science or bachelor of general studies degrees from the College of Liberal Arts and sciences would be required to take a course that meets the diversity requirement.
This is a lofty requirement. Even though teaching people to accept other cultures sounds impressive, there are many problems to overcome and answers that need provided before the committee can accept such a proposal.
Description of what type of course this would be are vague. Still in question are: What cultures are included and which are left out? What type of curriculum is taught? Does the background of the teachers matter? Do
A KU committee is reviewing a proposal that may make a diversity class a requirement.
instructors have to come from specific cultures?
These are just a few of the numerous questions that need answered.
The bigger question is, can a class about diversity teach people to be more tolerant of others? Some say yes, others say no. But it is legitimate to ask if a group can learn in a classroom to accept another culture.
Although those students probably could learn about different cultures, therefore understanding customs and not finding them odd, it is unlikely this automatically will make the world a better place. Especially if the class is not properly taught and the curriculum is weak.
Another concern is the teaching of stereotypes. The committee, while reviewing the idea, must ensure that the class does not teach stereotypes. There are many that exist concerning cultures and if the curriculum used is poor and reinforces those stereotypes, then the class could cause harm.
Making the class a requirement is
also too much to ask. Increasingly, graduating is becoming difficult as more requirements continually are added. If the University wants to offer this course, then it should. But it should not be required.
The University also must ensure that whomever teaches the course must make it interesting and exciting. Dennis Dailey's Human Sexuality in Everyday Life is the most popular course on campus. This isn't just because of its content, but primarily because Dailey makes the class interesting and easy for people to relate to. If a U.S. Diversity class does not have an instructor who can do the same, then the class may not be effective.
Wanting everybody to have a better understanding of cultures that comprise the United State is a wonderful idea. But if not done properly the class could fail. Diversity cannot be taught in a classroom with books and overheads. It must be taught in environments, such as roundtable discussions and social settings, where cultures can come together and educate one another. If the University can create a setting where that happens, then it will have found a way to foster cultural understanding.
But the proposal on the table will not get the job done.

Perspective
E-mail communications may leave no evidence
Spencer Duncan
spinion@kansan.com
f Mesopotamians had e-mail, history would have a different look.
Writing that was left on caves, rocks, tombs and pyramids have helped historians
piece together times when writing was limited. These writings help researchers understand different civilizations and have made it possible to trace the advancements of the human race.
But imagine if the Mesopotamians, instead of tracing on walls, had sent messages via e-mail.
Written letters, memos and private messages have divulged historical secrets and shed light on the world's greatest moments and figures.
Private letters written by Martin Luther King Jr. offer greater insight into his personality. President Lyndon B. Johnson was an extremely private man. After his death, when many of his private letters and memos were released, a more emotional side of him was revealed.
Sitting on his clay seat, one inventor writes to another, "Hey Bob, I just invented the wheel."
History's holes often are filled with writings discovered years later. Thomas Jefferson's letters, discovered decades after his death, hint that he may have had an affair with a slave. Memos by Richard Nixon give insight into how Watergate erupted into the mess that it became.
In a digital age where e-mail is the rage, tracing history is more difficult. Had Bill Clinton sent his notes to Monica Lewinsky via e-mail, she could have read them and then deleted them. Kenneth Starr would not have been able to submit them to Congress in his investigation.
E-mail is fluid. It can be sent and delivered with a speed that a letter and memo cannot match. But it also can be disposed of easier than any written document. For history's sake, let's hope that people continue to write things down.
invented the wizard
Bob, sitting in front of his new iStone computer, sees the message, writes back,
"Wav to go!" and deletes the message.
The wheel may exist forever, but the evidence of its creation has been erased forever by Bob. No stone walls will remain thousands of years later to tell when the wheel was created. With just the touch of a button, the record is gone.
Unlike written documents, personal letters and stone tablets, e-mail is less permanent. One hundred years from now, e-mail love letters will not be found in an old shoe box of Bill Clinton's. E-mail messages are less likely to be discovered in a file cabinet or among the papers of a famous American
As wonderful as e-mail is, connecting friends in different countries and allowing parents and children to talk coast to coast without boosting the phone bill, it possesses an interesting challenge to history.
when e-mail messages come, they can be deleted instantly, and, increasingly, people
are not printing them out. They are getting rid of them or putting them on hard drives and disks that probably will not be accessible as the years go by because of technology changes.
A Macintosh disk that can be accessed today will not be compatible with technology 50 years from now.

Maybe a Battle Royale between the cast of *Family Ties* and *Charles in Charge*. Scott Balo vs. Michael J. Fox — now that is pay-per-view caliber!
I also don't understand the new Hollywood Squares game show. What better place to go and see television's finest has-beens make complete fools of themselves? The show is overflowing with high-class talent, such as Kim Fields, a.k.a. Tootie from The Facts of Life, and Malcolm-Jamal Warner, Theo from The Cosby Show. What was that, "washed-up week?" How about having a special drug-offender week: one with Todd "Willis" Bridges and The Partridge Family's Danny Bonaduce?

Feedback
I felt compelled to write to the staff of The University Daily Kansan, specifically Jule Sachs.
The Kansan reporters are often harshly criticized for their stories, but I wanted to express my thanks for the article about the cancer survivors. I was diagnosed with melanoma skin cancer at the age of 18.
The tumor was removed, but another reappeared in
the same vicinity a year and a half later. After going through two extensive surgeries, I can report that I am healthy for now. Granted, I did not have to endure lengthy chemotherapy sessions, but the scars on my face and neck are daily reminders of my ordeal.
It is wonderful that Amy Laughlin and Richard Barbuto survived their battles and felt compelled to share their stories. Thanks to the Kansan for deeming this article worthy of the front page.
Cancer and death are not two subjects that many of my friend relate to. I am encouraged knowing there are other young people around who have faced cancer and won.
These stories prove that each on of us should be proactive about our health because cancer does not discriminate.

Professor's music pleases Topeka crowd
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Konsan staff writer
TOPEKA — The notes flowed like the hilly landscapes of eastern Kansas when a University of Kansas professor's symphony was performed Saturday night.
It was the first time the symphony had been performed in Kansas.
Flint Hills Contours, written in 1996 by Charles Hoag, professor and director of music theory and composition, was performed at White Concert Hall at Washburn University. The symphony was performed by the Topeka Symphony Orchestra before several hundred people.
"My music should be a reflection about how I feel about Kansas,"
Hoag said. "When one lives in a place for a long period of time, one either grows to love it or hate it. I just decided to love it."
Hoag said his symphony's music was inspired by the contours of Kansas hills that went up high and then down low.
The orchestra also performed works by two famous composers of classical music — W. A. Mozart and Jean Sibelius.
"I like contours because I think music has to have a shape," Hoag said. "I'm very interested in two contours: top and bottom."
Donald Peck, principal flute for the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, joined the Topeka orchestra and performed Mozart's Flute Concerto No. 1.
Many of the audience members said they were moved by the music.
"I found it very interesting," said Marvin Mcnett, Lawrence graduate student, who attended the show to listen to his wife play the viola with the orchestra. "I enjoyed his portrait of the Flint Hills in music."
Hoag said he was delighted by the orchestra's performance.
"They did a lovely job," Hoag said.
"I wanted a piece that would work for this kind of orchestra. It is a very listenable piece, but you must remember, if it's 100 percent listenable then you have heard it already."
Haag also has been the conductor of the Lawrence Chamber Players and the Lawrence Symphony Orchestra.
Living Out Loud needs volume control
Bv Jeremy M. Doherty
I propose a new law: Anyone other than Woody Allen who tries to make a comedy about neurotic New Yorkers must be shot on first offense.
Kansan movie critic
Living Out Loud plays with ideas that long have been mainstays of Allen's films: self-absorbed city dwellers who can't get their romantic lives organized. The problem here is that the movie, directed by screenwriter Richard LaGravenese (The Bridges of Madison County), doesn't know when to rein in its quirky tone.
Holly Hunter, a gifted actress when playing white trash (Raising Arizona) or mutes (The Piano), is miscast as Judith Nelson, an unhappy divorcee who lives alone in a stadium-sized penthouse in New York's Upper East Side.
After 16 years of marriage,
Judith's husband (Martin Donovan)

left her for a younger woman. Since then, she has retreated socially, only leaving her apartment to visit an R&B nightclub where she fawms over the local singer (Queen Latifah). She also develops a friendship with the sad elevator operator (Danny DeVito) in her building.
LaGravenese offers a series of scenes that incite more frustration than entertainment. For example, Judith hires a masseuse and it is implied that they have sex. But the scene is filmed like a soft-core scene from a direct-to-video flick.
Then there's a nutty moment in which Judith ventures into a lesbian bar and engages in more-than-
friendly dancing with the patrons. But once the scene ends, it's never mentioned again.
The movie doesn't work because LaCravenese, an otherwise capable writer, doesn't have a clue about how to restrain his actors — particularly Hunter. Her character is prone to spouting rambling monologues inspired by the most mundane events. Ask her about the weather, and you're likely to receive an earful:
"Yes, the weather is nice, and it was nice on my wedding day. But my husband left me for a slut, so if you see him, please, give him a complimentary kick in the groin for me. Speaking of which, my knees haven't been up to snuff ever since I tripped on the stairs, which he was supposed to fix before he left me for that tramp."
And on it goes. Hunter is a fine actress, but she needs direction. LaGravenese clearly didn't have the courage to tie her down.

Saying goodbye
Kansas football seniors happy to win last home game but disappointed about offensive performance
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
It wasn't quite the send-off they'd dreamed about.
On a cold, wet Saturday afternoon, the seniors on the Kansas football team played their last game at Memorial Stadium. Although the Jayhawks defeated the University of North Texas 23-14, senior offensive tackle Dan Dercher said that this game wasn't the team's best performance.
"It was ugly," Dercher said. "It was a pretty poor offensive performance. With the weather like that, we had a lot of penalties and fumbles, but we know we're a better offense than that."
The Jayhawks' offense had 298 yards, completed just nine of 19 passes, and failed to score an offensive touchdown in the second half.
Offensively, the soggy third quarter was dismal as both teams had more penalties and fumbles than first downs. Neither team mustered a score. North Texas
"It was a defensive show today," said senior offensive guard Justin Glasgow. "I was hoping for a more emotional win, like being up by 30 points so we could bring out the seniors one by one. But I'm so glad that we won."
only had one first down and Kansas only had three.
"The weather hurts the offense more than anything else," said Michael Allen, senior strong safety. "But we just had go out and do the things we were capable of."
The Jayhawks' defense was the highlight, creating two bigplays to ensure victory.
Defensive back Andrew Davison intercepted a pass by North Texas quarterback Chase Corley and returned it 30 yards for a touchdown. With seven minutes and 31 seconds to go in the fourth quarter, Kansas led 23-14.
But North Texas recovered running back David Winbush's fumble, and the Eagles took control at their own 49-yard line. North Texas running back Ja'Quay Wilburn ran for 39 yards to the Kansas 23-yard line for a first down. An unsparsmanlike-conduct penalty on Kansas moved the ball to the 11-yard line, giving North Texas a first down.
But the Kansas defense held, and North Texas was forced to try for a field goal. Defensive end Kareem Carter blocked the field goal attempt, and defensive back Greg Erb recovered the ball as the Jayhawks held on to win 23-14.
ball, praising Caston's athleticism and ability to rush the quarterback.
Coach Terry Allen said senior linebacker Hanson Caston deserved the game
"When we get them playing our type of ball game, things are going to go our way," Caston said. "We got them to go to the air and that's what we wanted to do."
Although the weather inhibited the offense and deterred fans from coming to watch the seniors' last home game, Dercher said the seniors were just glad to win.

Victory against North Texas fuels team's spirit
"It was touching to go out with a win," Dercher said. "We're laying the foundation this year. You have to look to the future and next year -- maybe they'll have some luck. Coach Allen's a great coach and these guys have a

lot of potential."
The seniors have one game left, and Dercher said they weren't looking further ahead than that.

The Kansas football team is ending its season just the way it wanted to — winning.
The Jayhawks squeaked away with a 23-14 win against the North Texas Eagles in front of a minuscule crowd Saturday.
Running back David Winbush said the game was a big one for more than the seniors.
An estimated 20,000 people showed up to watch the Kansas seniors play their final game at Memorial Stadium.
The victory sets the Jayhawks up for their final game, two weeks from Saturday against Iowa State in Ames, Iowa.
"We all appreciate the support for people that came out," safety Michael Allen said. "This was our last game in Memorial Stadium."
"It's important to win this one and the next one we've got," running back David Winbush said. "We're just trying to finish it out for the seniors
"We can get some rest, and then come back and beat Iowa State the following week," Davison said.
and see where we are for the future."
Despite a lackluster offensive performance, only 298 yards total offense, several Jayhawks excelled when Kansas had possession.
- Seven Kansas players caught passes from quarterback Jay Alexander for a total of 72 yards.
Wide receiver Harrison Hill caught three of those for 21 yards.
- **Defensive end Kareem Carter blocked a late fourth-quarter North Texas field goal attempt, which would have brought the Eagles to within four points of the Jayhawks.**
"He used his athleticism well," coach Terry Allen said. "He's able to rush to the quarterback,
Winbush had another stellar game with 131 yards rushing, which ranks him 29th on the Kansas all-time rushing list. It was also Winbush's second 100-yard game of the season.
Defensive linebacker Hanson Caston had three unassisted tackles in the game, two for losses of 24 yards total.
- Cornerback Andrew Davison intercepted the first pass of his career and ran it 30 yards for a touchdown, also the first of his career.
In his first career start, Alexander connected on nine passes of 19 attempts.
The score, which came with seven minutes remaining in the game, took the Jayhawks from only three points ahead of the Eagles to nine points ahead, helping clinch the game for Kansas.
Linebacker Patrick Brown recovered his first fumble of the 1998 season.
and that's Hanson's forte."

Former Jayhawk dishes assists for All-Stars
Rex Walters returns to Allen Field House, but plays for opposition
In the same Field House where Rex Walters was cheered every time he stepped onto James Naismith Court from 1991 to 1993, he was being jeered. He had missed a three-point shot with less than four minutes to play in the first half of Saturday night's game between Kansas and the California All-Stars.

The former Jayhawk shooting guard, however, understood what it meant when he denounced the opponents' jersey for one evening.
Air ball. Air ball. Air ball.
"It says Kansas on their jersey," he said after the game. "Mine says California All-Stars."
And although the crowd applauded him during introductions, for
almost 40 minutes he was the enemy
"It's got to be a home-court advantage," Walters said. "They've got to cheer for their team."
— not the player who teamed with Adonis Jordan to lead the Jayhawks to the Final Four in 1993.
Since leaving Kansas, Walters has played in the NBA for the New Jersey Nets, the Philadelphia 76ers and the Miami Heat.
Now a free agent, Walters can't sign with a team until the NBA lockout is settled. He said Miami was his best prospect.
watters' stint with the All-Stars was for only one game, and Phil Bryant, the All-Stars coach, said he was excited to have Rex for the fan appeal.
Walters practices with Kansas, working on his game for when the NBA season begins — if players and owners can come to an agreement.
Walters shot a dismal five of 18 from the field, hitting only one of 10 three-point attempts. He also had
"It would have been a disservice not to try to beat them."

Kansas coach Roy Williams said he was glad Walters didn't shoot better.
"I'm just trying to stay in shape," Walters said. "Evidently, I need to work on my shooting a little bit."
two steals, two rebounds, nine assists and two turnovers in 38 minutes on the floor.
Walters did play tenacious defense against Ryan Robertson and Jeff Boschae, something Robertson has seen before.
"If Rex would have had a good night shooting the ball, we would have lost," he said. "I was really happy. I told him I didn't like seeing him on that other bench and in that other uniform."
"I've played against Rex a lot," Robertson said. "I have a lot of respect for him. He's very, very competitive."
in a two-minute stretch in the second half, the All-Stars closed the gap from 82-71, to one at 82-81. Walters dished out three assists and pulled the All-Stars to within one after hitting a free throw.
Walters also scored or had an assist on several fast-break baskets that kept the All-Stars close.
Walters' competitive nature came out during the game as he talked to the referees about fouls and jawed with Robertson and Boschee.
Walters said playing Kansas hard was an important part of preparing the Jayhawks for the season.
"It would have been a disservice not to try to beat them," Walters said.
At the end of the game, the partisan Allen Field House crowd recognized Walter's hard play. Bryant pulled Walters with less than a minute remaining. Walters left to a standing ovation.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 9).
You're facing a conflict with authority, and that's your lesson. Learn how to manage someone else; he will make decisions that work. Do it with love. Anticipate changes in December to your income and thinking. A goal you've long held is approachable in January, and you could have it nailed down by February.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6. Be cautious about what you say with somebody you love. Make sure you don't hurt someone's feelings by coming on too strong.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) Today is a 5. You may feel like you're under attack. That's just because there's a grand cross in fixed signs going on. Nobody will budge and nothing seems to be getting accomplished. Actually, you're accomplishing something. You're making sure your needs are met, which is very important right now. Stick to the guns
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 5. Your work is challenging, but you're learning fast. Some of what you're learning is making things harder. The information is coming in, but it's contradicting what you thought you already had. Keep after it. You're bound to discover the facts; that's more important than someone else's interpretation of the truth.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You're decisive and powerful, as well as more affectionate. You might have a strong sense that you don't have enough money. Even though it's not altogether true, figure out how to make a little more instead of spending more. That will calm your fears and give you cash in reserve.
P
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 6.
It seems as if somebody isn't letting you do what you want. Actually, it could be another side of your own personality slowing you down, and that's not necessarily a bad thing. You can get an awful lot of good advice from your own considerations. You should listen to them and heed what they have to teach you.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You're generally good about keeping agreements, but it looks like something has snuck up on you that you don't want to handle, so it's almost overdue. You could come as close as you ever get to missing a deadline. Better go through your list again.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
A couple of strong leaders want to control your life, and they're fighting for your attention. It's up to you to decide which way you go. Pick the one that's going to lead you where you want to go. Don't be an idiot about this. Pay attention to what's going on around you.
Twin
**Scarpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)**: Today is a 6.
Don't get into a snit if things don't go quite the way you want. You're not in control of the situation, which should be obvious. For a change, somebody wants to order you around. You'll do well to comply graciously. That's your best chance for regaining the power tion.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You're under pressure, but that's OK. You're very cree
ative. You'll be able to solve the problem once you
figure out exactly what it is. That's the difficult part.
You're going to have to figure it out for yourself.
Once you've got that part mastered, the rest is going
to be easy.

LA JUSTICIA
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)? Today is a 7.
Focus on how you can best invest your time and talent.
It looks like there's a way for you to provide a little security for yourself and your family. This could be nothing more significant than buying your canned goods in case lots. Food is a wonderful way to save,
although you'll probably think of many other ways.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
If you don't speak up, there's going to be a logjam,
and nothing will get accomplished. Two powerful
people are arguing about who's in control, and both
could be missing something important. That's where
you come in. Your vote is pivotal.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
There seems to be more work than play today, but don't worry about it. It's just preparation for better times to come. Besides that, your energy level should be high.
You're feeling a little pressed, but that's OK. You can power through it, and that's the assignment anyway.

Swim meet vs. Aggies yields mixed results
Freshman wins three races for women; men hard-pressed in sprints
By Matthew Friedrichs Kansan sports editor
Swimming is not a placid sport
For a few seconds after diving into the water at the start of a race, the swimmers accelerate under the surface and the water is calm. But then they emerge, arms churning and legs kicking.
Friday night the Kansas women rode the crest of the wave, beating No. 22 Texas A&M 153.5-147.5.
The No. 25 men did not crest as high, losing
129-172 to the No. 15 Aggies.
"I'm proud of their effort," said Coach Gary Kempf. "Very rarely am I happy, but I'm proud."
The meet was the first dual of the year for the Jayhawks, and it was vindication for the women.
"We're underrated." Kempfsaid.
The women started strong, winning the 200-yard freestyle, 100-yard breaststroke, 50-yard freestyle and 100-yard freestyle. But they slumped in the middle of the meet, which upset
"We had to swim well at the end to win the meet." Kempf said.

Freshman Kim Waite won the 200, 100 and 50 freestyles for the Jayhawks. She was also a member of the first place 200-yard medley relay team.
waite said the team rallied at the end for a win.
"I was really proud of our team for not getting scared," she said.
The men did not do as well in sprint events. Texas A&M swept the top three positions in both the 50-yard and 100-yard freestyle races.
"That's one of our strengths," said Mel Nash, Texas A&M men's coach.
In a dual meet, teams with better sprints have an advantage Nash and Kempf said. It was an advantage Texas A&M held.
"They might be the best sprinting team in the country right now." Kempf said.
Junior Tyler Painter had the best performance among Kansas men, winning the 1000-yard freestyle and the 400-yard individual medley.
■ Waite's 23.92 in the 50 freestyle, 52.32 in the 100 freestyle and 1:52.66 in the 200 freestyle were personal bests.
Junior Kerri Pribyl won the women's one- yard diving competition with a personal best of 270.45.
The women competed against North Texas Saturday morning, sweeping all the events and winning 111-68.
Former Kansas State basketball coach dies
Hartman's Wildcat teams promoted school's sports
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Before there was Bill Snyder and a championship-caliber football program for K-Staters to crower, there was a cool and crafty Jack Hartman staving off athletic oblusion as the Wildcat basketball coach
The Associated Press
"He was a beacon of light and a candle of hope for the university's entire athletic program," Jon Wefald, Kansas State president, said Friday, a few hours after Hartman died at age 73.
"This is a sad day not only for Kansas State fans, but for all people involved in basketball. in particular those involved in basketball in
the state of Kansas," said Kansas coach Roy Williams.
Wefold acknowledged the debt K-State athletics owed Hartman.
"Now, Kansas State has a great deal to be proud of in its athletic programs. But then, there wasn't much but the men's basketball program," Wefald said. "Over and over again, Jack proved we could get quality athletes to come to Kansas State."
Sometimes they weren't even such quality athletes. That was another part of the Hartman mystique.
From 1970 through 1986, the often-iracsible Oklahoma native won 295 games and lost 169 at Kansas State, winning more than any other coach in school history.
He had plenty of good players, such as Lon Krueger, Rolando Blackman and Ed Nealy.
But he probably didn't have as many as other
coaches with similar winning percentages. Probably, it's safe to say that the majority of
coaches, given the same players Hartman recruited to Manhattan. would not have won 295 times.
"When it comes time to recruit, we get in private jets and fly around the country," an admiring Big Eight Conference coach once said. "Jack gets in his car and drives to Bonner Springs. And then he beats us!"
DURKIN
Heart problems forced Hartman to retire in 1986, but he remained connected with Wildcat athletics in his retirement.
Hartman: respected coach died during the weekend.
He also proved he could win with great talent. He coached Michael Jordan, Mark Price and Sam Perkins to the gold medal in the Pan American Games after they fell behind Mexico by 16 points in their first game.
Jack Hartman was one hell of a basketball coach," said Chuck Neinas, commissioner of the Big Eight from 1971-80. "His success, based upon the talent he had, was exceptional. And he was also a very enjoyable guy."
There was never any doubt as to who was in charge.
"I remember how it was during practice," said North Texas athletic director Craig Helwig, an administrator at Kansas State during the 1970s. "There was the sound of the ball bouncing, and there was the sound of Jack's voice. Those were the only two sounds you heard in the entire gym."
Basketball fans remember Fred Pralle

Kansas basketball fans are remembering the career of Fred Pralle, a two-time All America guard for the University of Kansas who died Friday in Gainesville, Fla., at age 82.
Praile, who had leukemia,
helped lead the Jayhawks to three
consecutive conference titles
from 1936 to 1938. He earned three
All-Big Six selections.
"He was one of the true greats who played here," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "I'll never forget his talk at the 100-year celebration banquet last year. He was fantastic. Our players still remember him."
Praille, whose real name was Ferdinand, was born in St. Louis. He played at Kansas under legendary coach Forrest "Phog" Allen.
In his final two seasons at the University, Praile led the Jayhawks in scoring, and his average of 12.1 points per game topped the Big Six in 1938. The Jayhawks had 54 wins and eight losses during Praile's three years on the team.
Max Falkenstein, Kansas announcer, remembers listening to radio broadcasts of games in which Pralle played.
"He was a magnificent athlete," Falkenstein said. "He had a great set shot where he took it clear to the floor before shooting it with two hands."
After his playing days at Kansas were over, Pralle played for the Kansas City Healeys, an Amateur Athletic Union team. The Healeys became the AAU national champions in 1940, and Pralle was named the most valuable player for the tournament. He later moved to Gainesville, where he owned a Phillips 66 oil company.
Pralle died at the North Florida Rehabilitation and Specialty Care Center in Galenville. He is survived by his wife of 60 years, Felice Pralle.
The funeral will be at 2 p.m. tomorrow in Gainesville at the Forest Meadows Funeral Home.

No place like home for volleyball
Team had rough time playing on the road
By Laura Bokenkrager
Kansan sportswriter
Home, sweet home.
After a frustrating weekend on the road, the Kansas volleyball team is ready to play at home in Allen Field House Thursday.
"It'll be nice to play in front of a home crowd," said middle blocker Anne Kreimer. "We can prepare all week and we won't have to worry about travel arrangements. The road's always tough."
After falling in three close games at Baylor 17-15, 18-16 and 15-11, the Jayhawks were trampled at Texas Tech 15-2. 15-2 and 15-1.
Krelmer said that the Jayhawks have struggled all year at the end of tight games, falling just short of winning the game point each time.
"We just have had this problem, we can't finish the game," Kremler said.
We just can't close the game at the end."
The Jayhawks reached game point once in the first game and twice in the second against Baylor, but lost them both. The Bears rattled off six unanswered points in the first game and eight in the second to rally for the wins.

"We got stuck in one rotation and we couldn't get out of it," Kreimer said. "Coach talks a lot about firstball sideout, and we did a poor job of that. You can't dig yourself into a hole like that, especially on the

road."
"We let one get away tonight," Bechard said. "It seemed like we outplayed them 80 percent of the match, but they just wouldn't go down."
But Kreimer said that the match at Texas Tech left them the worst overall feeling.
"We just basically didn't show up." Kremler said. "We had too many mental errors. We just weren't prepared."
The Jayhawks had 27 attacking errors and nine service errors. Texas Tech posted just eight attacking errors and didn't miss any serves.
"Texas Tech was as good as we were bad tonight," Bechard said. "We were just outmatched. It was a tough loss to swallow, but we'll regroup."
"You only play as good as you practice. We hadn't been practicing well. But it hurts to lose like that, and we know how it felt .We don't want to feel that way again."
Anne Kreimer Kansas middle blocker
Kreimer said that the Jayhawks had to have a good week of practice to be successful against Texas on Thursday.
"You only play as good as you practice," Kremler said. "We hadn't been practicing well. But it hurts to lose like that, and we know how it felt. We don't want to feel that way again."
The 14-12 Jayhawks battle No. 12 Texas Thursday at 7:30 p.m. in Allen Field House.

NCAA athlete graduation rates fall in most categories
-Kansan staff report
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — NCAA athletes, with the exception of white female players, are losing ground in the classroom.
Led by an alarming dip among white male basketball players, Division I athletes who entered school in 1991 showed the first overdrop in graduation rates in four years.
According to NCAA statistics released during the weekend, 57 percent of Division I athletes who were freshmen in 1991 had graduated by 1997. For each of the three previous years, the rate was 58 percent.
The NCAA began training graduation rates in 1984, using a formula
that counts all transfer students — even if they go elsewhere and graduate — against the rates of their original school. It allows six years to complete a degree program. Thus, graduation rates for the 1992 freshman class will be compiled and announced next year.
Almost every category for the 1991 entering class — which includes males, females, blacks, whites, football and basketball — took a tumble
White females athletes, holding steady at 70 percent for the third straight year, retained the highest rate among all classifications and were the only group not to decline.
White male basketball players were hardest hit, plunging from 58 to 47 percent.
of a change."
were the only group
"I don't think we know the answer," Renfro said. "A one-year flip like this may not be particularly meaningful, especially in light of the fact we changed the reporting process."
"That's a significant change," NCAA spokesman Wally Renrof said. "We've seen changes before, but I'm not sure we've had that bleu
For the first time, the NCAA let the federal government collect the data instead of having the schools report directly.
The NCAA noted that 57 percent for athletes was better than the 58 percent graduation rate of the general student body. In fact, the athletes' rates have been either 1 or 2 percentage points higher than the
general student body's since 1986.
NCAA
Athletes at most Division I schools, particularly those in the money-making sports
of football and basketball, often benefit from free academic support services such as tutors. In some cases, people are assigned to awaken the athletes and walk them to morning class.
and Georgetown showed particularly well. Of the 71 freshman athletes who enrolled at Duke in 1991, 97 percent graduated — 5 percentage points better than the student body. At Georgetown, 92 percent of athletes and 89 percent of students in general got their degrees.
general go get then degrees.
At a few schools, athletes graduated at a much higher rate than the general students. Grambling's athletes graduated at a 72 percent rate compared with 33 for the student body.
Among big athletic schools, Duke
Among all male students, the graduation rate declined from 53 to 51 percent. Among all females, the decline was 68 to 67 percent.
Black male athletes went from 43 to 41, and white males from 57 to 56. Black female athletes declined 3 percentage points to 56 percent.
In basketball, males dropped from 45 to 41 percent and females went from 66 to 67. Black males dropped from 39 to 37. White female basketball players dropped from 74 to 71 percent and black females from 88 to 55.
The Etc. Shop
Among all football players, the decline was 52 to 50 percent. White football players went from 61 to 60 percent and blacks from 45 to 42.

Task force strengthens alcohol-use policies
Decision made after survey says students abuse alcohol
(USPS 650-640)
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas administrators called for immediate actions, including creating a zero-tolerance policy of enforcement of existing alcohol policies, to curb alcohol use and abuse on the Lawrence campus.
Provost David Shulenburger made the announcement last night at a meeting of a joint Lawrence, Haskell Indian Nations University and KU task force. The announcement was made after results of a student survey were tabulated.
The survey — completed by 848 students earlier this semester — shows that alcohol use leads to illegal activity and abuse, and has a negative effect on course work.
"The connection between alcohol use and poor academic performance, as well as a number of other problems, cannot be refuted." Shulenburger said.
Immediate actions that the University will take include meeting with all fraternities with the purpose of encouraging them to become alcohol-free, creating a zero-tolerance policy of enforcement of existing alcohol policies, applying for a Kansas Health Foundation grant to enhance alcohol education programs and discontinuing the sale of alcohol at the Kansas Union. The University will not meet with sororites because they are alcohol-free.
"We want any evidence of illegal alcohol use to have consequences associated with it." Shulen-
He said that students would not necessarily be removed from the University for breaking alcohol-related rules, but that it was possible depending on the situation.
Associate provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett informed the task force of the survey's results last night at the DCCCA center, an outpatient drug and alcohol treatment center, 3312 Clinton Parkway.
85 percent of KU students surveyed reported using alcohol in the last 30 days. 58 percent said they had participated in binge drinking during the last two weeks. Binge drinking is
Key findings of the University of Keys alcohol survey, which was completed by 848 students earlier this semester:
85 percent reported consuming alcohol in the past 30 days.
58 percent reported binge.
drinking in the past two weeks. 51 percent reported driving
51 percent reported driving under the influence of alcohol.
49 percent reported regretting an action made while under the influence.
33 percent reported alcohol interrupting studies.
16 percent reported experiencing violence in which alcohol was involved.
Binge drinking is defined as consuming five or more drinks in one sitting.
McCluskey-Fawett said that of the students who took the survey, those consuming less alcohol earned higher grades in classes.
The task force has scheduled two additional meetings for this year with the goal of recommending ideal ways of dealing with alcohol use in all sectors of the city.
Day to remind people of cold as winter nears
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
Old Man Winter won't arrive officially until December, but today is Winter Weather Awareness Day sponsored by the National Weather Service. And Mother Nature is setting the mood with cold temperatures.
Mike Akulow, meteorologist with the service, said his organization created the day to remind the community how serious winter weather in Kansas could be. He urged students to prepare for it.
Freezing winter temperatures are one danger, he said, that can be compounded by windy conditions in the
state. A 10 degree temperature, for example, in combination with a 10 to 15 mile per hour wind, can result in health problems such as frostbite and hypothermia.
COLD
According to the weather service, physical symptoms such as uncontrolable shivering, loss of feeling in extremities, slurred speech and drowsiness indicate that a person should seek medical care. If care is not available, people should try to bring the person's body temperature up slowly and dry off if wet.
Temperatures usually are coldest in January, with an average daily low temperature of 16.3 degrees. Akulow said wind makes cold temperatures worse for people because it quickly carries heat away from the body in exposed areas.
Another hazard Akulow warned people about is traveling in treacherous conditions. He said travel on roads should be avoided in severe winter weather.
In case students get caught out in a snow or ice storm, they should carry a winter storm survival kit in their cars. The kit should include items such as blankets, a flashlight and a first-aid kit. Also, Akulow recommended the people keep their gas tank filled, let

Phi Kappa Theta hazing inquiry ends in probation
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Phi Kappa Theta fraternity has been placed on disciplinary probation for an indefinite period of time, following almost a month-long investigation of hazing allegations.
University of Kansas admini that the fraternity must follow a 10-point plan of corrective measures before reinstatement of good-standing status.
University of Kansas administrators announced yesterday that the fraternity must follow
A tentative timeline has not been released.
"This has been a very positive experience for the chapter," said Tim Nadon, president of the fraternity, 1941 Stewart Ave. "The stipulations are educational and will help us grow."
A University press release said the hazing within the chapter caused no serious injury and did not involve forced consumption of alcohol.
Line-ups are when new members are put in a line and yelled at, said Danny Kaiser, director of organizations and leadership. He said these violations were less severe than past hazing on campus.
"Any hazing allegation will always be treated seriously," Kaiser said. "The disciplinary sanctions will depend on the violation. In this instance, the sanction was very adequate."
The violations included lineups, personal servitude, mild sleep deprivation and a significant imbalance between the work duties of new members and initiated members.
Kaiser said that probation still was very serious but less

severe than other punishment such as suspension.
The chapter has the option of appealing the sanction to the University Judicial Board by Nov. 30,1998, but Nadon said Phi Kappa Theta did not plan to appeal.
there's not reason to appeal, because we all feel that the sanctions are fair," he said.
Kaiser also noted that the chapter claimed responsibly for the actions and did not deny the violations.
Nadon said the violations came as a result of one new member's complaints. He said he was not aware of any other new members having a problem with the chapter.

monopoly on movies in Lawrence
Story by Seth Jones Photo illustrations by Jason Benavides and Angie Kuhn
I students want to see a block buster first run movie in Lawrence they have two choices.
Go to a theater owned by Hollywood Theaters Inc. or don't go at all. Hollywood Theaters' strategy is to run the only game in town, those who follow the movie industry say. It has been a winning strategy, too, at least until the Dallas based company came up against KU Student Senate after closing down Lawrence's only dollar theater.
Faced with student complaints and cutthroat competition from megaplexes in nearby Kansas City, company officials have rolled back student ticket prices from $6 to $4.75, while nudging up the cost of regular admission prices 25 cents.
Closing down the Hillcrest Theater 5, 925 Iowa St., Sept. 27th awoke the movie going public to Hollywood's takeover of the major motion picture screens in Lawrence.
Hollywood let the Hillcrest lease expire when repair costs looked too high and profits too low, the corporation's management said.
The closing upset Richard Raney, the owner of the Hillcrest 5 property, where movies had been shown since 1967 The other theater in town, owned by Dickinson Theaters, was bought by Hollywood along with 32 of the chain's other theaters in November 1996. Raney still gets phone calls blaming him for the monopoly.
"Viable competition does not exist in Lawrence," he said. "They bought out Dickinson; they closed us up. Now I have countless mothers calling me and staying I'm depressing their children of dollar movies."
The real subject with Hollywood Theaters, based in Dallas, which has built a chain of 85 movie theaters with more than 500 screens in Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Idaho and Ohio and soon will move into Alabama. Now the company offers student discounts only in Lawrence and in Waco, Texas. Hogue of Reed University

Four escaped inmates captured in Kansas City
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Authorities captured three of the five maximum-security inmates, including a convicted murderer who eluded police, yesterday after a weekend escape from the Wardone County Detention Center.
Houston County Detention Center. Two other escapees remained at large, including a man charged in two murders.
A sixth escapee James Wedlow, 16, was captured Sunday at an apartment complex in Kansas City, Kan., about 12 hours after the breakout. He had been jailed on charges of aggravated robbery and auto theft.
The escapees caught yesterday were picked up by police about 3 p.m. in midtown Kansas City, Lt. Dave Melton of the Wyndotte County Sheriff's Department said.
The three were identified as James Crum J., 39; Steven A. Ford, 17; and Michael J. Enriquez, 20. Kansas City, Mo., police got a call on a tips hotline that the men were in a midtown neighborhood, and all were caught in the same spot.
Crum is an inmate at the El Dorado Correctional Facility and is a convicted murderer. He was being held yesterday in the Wyandotte County jail pending more charges in Kansas City, Kan., Melton said.
Carssey Littlewood, 21, and Cleveland Henderson, 24, are still at large.
Rord is charged with aggravated rape, aggravated robbery, sodomy and aggravated battery. Enriquez is being held as a fugitive from Jackson County for failing to appear in court on drug charges.
Dow Corning settles breast implant claims
Littlewood is charged with capital murder, and Henderson is facing six counts of aggravated robbery.
BAY CITY, Mich. —Thousands of women who claim their silicone gel breast implants made them sick could each get $12,000 to $300,000 from Dow Coming Corp. under a $3.2 billion settlement proposal filed yesterday.
settlement property The plan, submitted to U.S. Bankruptcy Court, is subject to approval by a judge and creditors of Dow Corning, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 1995 because of the implant claims.
More than 600,000 women have filed claims against Dow Corning, about one-fifth of who have implants manufactured by the company, said Kenneth Eckstein, whose law firm represented the claimants. To collect, women must prove the implant or gel inside was made by Dow Corning.
Eckstein said payouts could begin as early as next summer if the settlement plan was approved on schedule. Those who fall sick later would have nearly 15 years to file claims.
Navy plane crashes off coast of Virginia
NORFOLK, Va. — Navy teams searched the coast off Virginia yesterday for three flyers missing after a nighttime crash on the deck of an aircraft carrier.
A Navy EA-BG Prowler whose crew was practicing landings on the USS Enterprise struck an S-3 Viking aircraft sitting on the deck Sunday night. One of the six crew members who ejected from the two planes was killed.
The two crew members of the Viking were slightly injured.
Cmdr. Roxie Merritt, a Navy representative in Norfolk said as time progressed it would be unlikely to find the other three alive.
The cause of the accident was under investigation.
The victims' identities were withheld while their relatives were notified.
Army officers charged after helicopter crash
FORT STEWART, Ga. - Three soldiers have been charged with involuntary manslaughter for taking two of their wives for an unauthorized ride on an Army helicopter that crashed in the Bahamas, killing both women.
Chief Warrant Officers David E. Gulio and Daniel P. Riddell and Sgt. William E. Westgate, all stationed at Fort Stewart in Savannah, had been sent to the Bahamas to take part in an anti-drug program with the Bahamian government.
They took Guido's wife Pam and Rid dell's wife Rebecca for a ride in the helicopter July 6. The women were killed and the three men seriously injured when it crashed on Grand Exuma Island.
The charges against Guido, Riddell and Westgate include conspiracy, involuntary manslaughter, making false official statements, dereliction of duty and destruction of military property.
The charges were filed Friday and announced by the Army yesterday.
Fort Stewart representative Rich Olson said the conspiracy charges were related to the plans the men made for the unauthorized flight.
All three men have recovered from their injuries and will remain on duty pending a decision by higher-ups on whether to court-martial them.
ELAV, Israel --- Israel likely will miss the New Mideast peace accord's Nov. 16 date for beginning a phased withdrawal of its soldiers from 13 percent of the West Bank, a key adviser to the prime minister said yesterday.
Peace accord stalled; Israel checks conditions
WORLD
The peace accord was to have taken effect Nov. 2 and be implemented over
1. 2 weeks. It has been held up by Israel, which seeks to clarify the Palestinians' obligations. After a suicide bombing in Jerusalem on Friday, Israel's Cabinet suspended debate on the deal until the Palestinians did more to fight Islamic militants.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's senior adviser, David Barllan, said yesterday that Israel likely would not begin withdrawing from the West Bank on schedule.
The Palestinians said they are carrying out their commitments and said Israel is using the security issue as a stall tactic.
Pakistani negotiator Hassan Asfour said the agreement was as good as dead if Israel refused to carry out the withdrawals on time.
DUSHANBE, Tajikistan — Government troops chased the last large group of rebel fighters into Tajikistan's mountains yesterday following five days of fighting in the Central Asian nation.
Tajikistan government pushes back rebel group
The 200 rebels concentrated around the town of Aini, about 100 miles north of the capital Dushanbe. They tried to flee in small groups toward the border of Uzbekistan after suffering heavy losses in weekend firefights.
The fighting follows a 1997 peace treaty that ended five years of civil war between the Muslim opposition and the hard-line government.
rebel leader Makhmud Khubobdenyev launched the uprising last Wednesday, demanding that President Emomali Rakhmonov free all political prisoners and bring his supporters into the government. The president refused to negotiate with the rebels.
Diamond mine attackers kill five, take hostages
TORONTO — Armed men staged a hit-and-run attack on a Canadian-owned diamond mine in Angola, killing at least five employees and taking four others hostage, the company reported yesterday.
DiamondWorks Ltd. said the attack occurred Sunday at its Yetwene mine in northeastern Angola.
The company said 18 Angolan workers were wounded in the attack. The remaining 13 foreign workers were unharmed and have been flown to Angola's capital, Luanda, Diamond-Works said.
Michael Grunberg, a company representative, said the dead employees included two Britons, a Portuguese national and two Angolans, including a representative of the state diamond company.
A British geologist, two Filipino mechanics and an Angolan metallurgist were taken hostage, Grunberg said.

Officers search for men involved in armed robbery
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
Three Lawrence residents were taped up and robbed Friday afternoon at their home about 2 miles west of Lawrence.
The incident began about 1:30 p.m. when three men entered the victims' home in the 1000 block of N. 1800 Road and taped up two women and one man at gunpoint, said Kenny Massey, Douglas County Undersheriff.
Massey said the suspects then placed the man outside.
He escaped to neighbor's house at 1:45 p.m. and called 911.
Officers also found that the three men had stolen four ounces of marijuana from the house, though the three victims did not mention it at first, Massey said.
When Sheriff's officers arrived, they discovered the suspects had stolen a Ruger 9mm pistol and damaged the windshield of a victims car.

Massey said the victims were not arrested but that they might be at the discretion of the District Attorney.

Building a great university
Seventh

YOUNG BROADWAY
"We have fallen behind other universities in the competition for labor in the university market. We must increase salaries ... between now and the end of the century. That is an achievable goal."
Chancellor Robert
Hemenway
Chancellor working to increase salaries of underpaid professors
1995 Faculty Convocation address
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
Faculty salary levels at the University of Kansas have fallen behind national and Big 12 averages, but administrators and state officials want to reverse the trend.
University administrators and Kansas Board of Regents members are looking to the future in an attempt to stop faculty and staff members throughout the Regents system from seeking better-paying jobs elsewhere.
The Regents recently submitted a request to the Legislature that would increase faculty salaries at Regents' institutions by 7.6 percent during a three-year period. The legislature and Gov. Bill Graves will have to approve the request, which is part of the Regents' yearly budget, next year for the pay hike to begin in the fall of 1999.
As part of his 10 characteristics of a great university, Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in his 1995 Faculty Convocation speech that the University must increase faculty salaries by a least 25 percent by the end of this century.
"We can reach this goal if the Legislature and Governor get behind this issue and approve the Regents' proposal." Menewwav said.
Since 1996, salaries for faculty members at the University have increased by 10 percent. And if the current proposal is adopted, the levels would have increased by 25.2 percent by the end of the 2000-2001 school year.
Hemenway said the University was paying about 12 percent or $7,500 less than peer institutions of comparable size.
"We've fallen behind, and I think it is time to invest in highly-productive faculty that currently work in the Regents' system," he said.
Tom Bryant, Regents interim executive director, said the salary-increase proposal was one of this year's Regents' main initiatives.
"KU, like other Regents' institutions, is feeling the effects of salaries being considerably lower than peer institutions," Bryant said. "It is clear that the Chancellor is concerned, and is working on the complete system to solve that problem."
Bryant said Hemenway's work had provided a leadership role to the Reegens' institutions.
"The Chancellor has been a major player," he said.
Bryant also said the Regents developed a document that

would be given to state Legislators and to the organizations in order to point out the problems with current salary levels and how it has become difficult to replace faculty members who leave the state system.
Hemenway said the University would work to convince Legislators of the proposal's validity.
"Each one of the universities is taking that document and will try to put together a network with the idea of garnering support for the Regents' initiative to improve salaries," he said.
"The Regents have indicated that this is very important, Hemenway said." We hope that this request can be treated favorably."
Recreation task force unsure what students want
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
The recreation task force wants to know if junior-high length basketball courts in Robinson Center are good enough for the University that started basketball.
The task force was set up by Kevin Yoder, student body president, to determine what students want to do with the recreation situation on campus. The group held a "town hall" meeting last night at the Kansas Union to ask students in attendance about the condition of recreation at the University of Kansas. About 15 students attended the meeting.
The 10 members of the task force
presented statistics comparing Robinson with other Big 12 schools.
The University of Kabulianas and the smallest recreational facility.
Yoder said he wanted to know what students wanted before any action was taken.
"We obviously have the worst facility in the Big 12," he said. "But it's not an issue unless students want it to be."
Clark Langemeier, Manhattan junior, said he was shocked with the difference in facilities at Kansas State University and the University.
"When I came from KSU, I asked someone what the recreation center was here," he said. "Someone said it
was Robinson. I went in, and I thought that this couldn't possibly be it, but I asked around and it was."
Langemeier said he thought a new facility was needed.
"If we want to leave a legacy here, this is a big part," he said.
Mark Bradshaw, fine arts senator,
said he thought the University did
not need a new recreation center.
He said students who shared his
view were not represented at the
meetings.
“It's the same thing if you have a recycling meeting,” he said. “Only people who are interested in recycling show up.”
Karl Law, intermural program assistant, said any improvement to Robinson was needed.
"I've seen students walk in, and then just turn around and leave," he said. "It's because the place is so overcrowded."
Allison McCallie, task force member, said the group could not yet come to a decision because they did not know what the students wanted.
"I if had to go talk to Chancellor Hemenway today, I couldn't tell him anything," she said. "We haven't gotten together as a group, we haven't tallied the results of the surveys and we haven't completed the phone survey. Once we take a stance, we have to commit to it, we want to be sure we know what students want before we make a decision."

Decisions to cancel classes made by University officials
Continued from page 1A

Students can check road conditions before driving by calling 600-585-ROAD in Kansas.
"People should also check the weather forecast for the day through their local media," Akulow said. "And then use a little common sense."
The University of Kansas has historically been conservative in canceling classes due to inclement weather. Todd Cohen, a spokesman from University Relations, said his records indicated classes had only been canceled for weather six times since 1972. The most recent cancellation was in January 1997, when afternoon classes were canceled.
Provost David Shulenburger, in consultation with Chancellor Robert Hemenway, makes the final decision about whether to cancel classes.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said the decision was made after several steps had been taken to assess the situation. Those steps include gathering information from KU Police and several other organizations, getting a report from facilities operations about parking lot conditions and
receiving input from the associate provost for support services.
Johnson said even when classes were canceled, the University attempted to maintain library operations for students.
The number for students to call to check on cancellations is 864-SNOW.
FORECAST
Phillip Bills, meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Topeka, said the average high temperature for this time in November is 55 degrees. The average low is 33 degrees.
Bills predicted that today's weather would be colder than average, with a high around 40 degrees. The evening low is expected to be around 25 degrees and the season's first freeze. There is a chance for early morning snow flurries.
The extended forecast from the National Weather Service:
National Weather Service:
Wednesday: Milder and mostly sunny with the high 50 to 55 degrees.
Thursday: Dry with a low of 30 to 35 degrees and a high in the middle 40 dearest.
Friday; A chance for rain. Low in the middle 30 degrees and high in the 40 degrees.

Voter turnout was down overall, lowest in Kansas in four decades
Registered voters, both nationwide and at the University of Kansas should be alarmed and maybe, ashamed of their dismal attendance at voting booths this last election day.
This year's national voter turnout was 38 percent, almost one percent less than the last midterm elections in 1994.
Midterm elections typically produce attendance of 37 to 40 percent of registered voters. In this state, turnout was the worst in 30 years at 49 percent.
Turnout by University students appears to be significantly worse.
As the sole student-only district, the Allen Field House district only served 12 percent of the 1,033 voters in that district. In 1996, more than 50 percent of voters in the same district took part in the elections. The Allen Field House district encompasses all registered voters living on Daisy Hill or in Jayhawker Towers, only a short walk away from the Field House.
Thirty eight percent of registered voters voted in the election this year.
Though midterm elections typically produce fewer voters at the polls, this year's results still are undesirable. Nationally, slightly more than a third of all voters essentially decided who will run Congress for the next two years. And if the results from the Field House district are comparable to other districts involving students, we students should be concerned about our participation.
The majority of U.S. citizens appears not to think that voting is their civil responsibility. Even if the act of voting may not be seen as such, it is more important to set an example favoring political awareness to hinder the advancement of political disillusionment.
Politicians can and do affect our
lives on national and local levels.
Participants in the University community are typically more informed than other citizens. We have no excuse for not acting on these gifts of knowledge and awareness.
Equally frustrating is the sheer amount of voter immobility. The process of getting to a polling site and casting one's vote rarely takes more than a few minutes. Furthermore, there are so many easy ways to get registered. People renewing their drivers licenses can do so just by checking a box on a form; even here at the University, a student can register during enrollment periods. When we produce low turnouts, opponents to these easy-registering methods gain ammunition for their arguments against financing these operations.
If we are to learn one thing from this year's elections, it is that we must not allow society to slip into complete political ignorance. Let the voice of the majority, not the minority, be heard.

Playing loud music is rude, not rebellious
It seems to me that there is some confusion about what constitutes youthful rebellion, and I feel it is only appropriate for me to clarify this issue. When it comes to blasting your music anytime and way you see fit, I just want to make one thing clear: When I want to listen to your music, I will ask you. Otherwise, keep it to yourself.
I think we all know full well that the current electronic nuisance statute is designed to put an end to
the noxious habit of filling the back of cars with subwoofers and power amplifiers, raising the trunk/hatchback lid, and acting like you are the only one listening to the music.
Rebellion is when you pierce or tattoo your body and you are the only one who suffers. Rebellion is when you are trying to break convention and better us all.
Rebellion is when you are willing to live with the consequences of your actions.
and turning off your amplifier. Rude is when you open your windows and pop your trunk/hatchback and crank your volume to the max. Rude is thinking it is your right to force your music tastes on others.
If it takes a $1,000 fine and six months of jail to force some people to understand the difference between rude and rebellion, then so be it. Maybe then we can ALL have some peace and quiet.
Rude is when you drive into my neighborhood (or anywhere near it) without turning down the volume

Common sense offers protection from legends

Urban legends took the University of Kansas by the throat two weeks ago. A front-page story in the Oct. 28 Kansan told about those who feared serial killers.

menacing figures in black hands terrorized drunken partygoers.
This nonsense raises a question: How stupid are KU students?
Cynics might say we're knitting with one needle. I'm more hopeful. I don't think KU students are
stupid — we just don't think. We get caught up in a good story and end up scaring ourselves half to death.
Urban legends are fun. Everyone has told them to someone at sometime. Movies have been based on legends, and numerous books have been written.
Stories about a woman putting her wet cat in the microwave, modem taxes and alligators in sewers are kind of cool. A friend tells one to another friend, and the tale spreads, generally providing a few moments of light entertainment or — in the case of the creepy legends — a slight shudder.
Two weeks ago, it all went too far. Who really knows where the story started? Researchers who study urban legends suggest it began in the midwest in 1968 and resurfaced in Michigan in 1996. Whatever the origin, this year the legend arrived at the University: Sorority girls were going to be savagely murdered on Halloween.
Intruders were reported at sororities.
People became alarmed.
A connection was magically made. These intruders must have been the serial killers, surveying potential sites of their Halloween slash-fests.
People panicked. There was a story on the
It's harder to keep our composure. To be calm we have to process information around us. We have to think critically. When the words "serial killer" and "murder" are passed around, the natural response is to throw common sense out of the window. The story may be false and the source unreliable, but those are frightening words.
But we cannot let these stories be cause for anxiety. Once fear begins to grow and spread, it's hard to stop.
Fright is a simple human reaction. When we are afraid, we tense up, expect the worst and prepare to defend ourselves against the enemy. It's a survival reflex.
Panic has no place at the University. If students apply basic safety precautions, they have little to worry about. Students always should lock their doors and protect their valuables. We should not let Halloween scare us into being safe — it should be habit.
evening news. An article was written in the Kansan, which attempted to dispel the validity of the legend. But printing a story gave students more to talk about. My grandmother called me and asked about the "nut cases around the sororities." She was concerned about my safety. I had to assure her I wasn't in mortal danger.
What was the cause of all this hoopla? It was a scary story somebody heard from somebody else. It was obviously an urban legend that was meant for chills and a chuckle.
Thankfully, the time of psycho killers and revenge-seeking, hook-handed men is finished. Perhaps the noticeable lack of murdered sorority girls will make people think twice about spreading these rumors. Then again, maybe someone's heard a story about a creepy New Year's monster that rises from the grave each December 31 to wreck his horrible vengeance on hapless revelers.
I can hardly wait.

Ventura's win a product of voter disillusionment
Forget the mild upset of Vince Snowbarger; the hot political story is in Minnesota. Not since Purple Rain has a situation been held in Minnesota.
Ventura's win is a strange event in a dull political climate.
so much attention been p where our generation has finally shown up and elevated a sub-cultural icon into a political one by electing Jesse "The Body" Ventura.
Established pundits across the country have only begun to lift their jaws from the floor, but although bizarre, Ventura's win is not without explanation and is as refreshing as a June morning in Minnesota.
Johan
Jonathan Muskey
opinion@kansan.com
There are four major factors behind this November surprise.
First, the personality of Ventura's opponents worked in his favor. Polls show that Americans are looking for the anti-candidate, and Minnesota found a ringer for the job. Ventura's former life in bubble-head entertainment gave him just the right amount of exposure to attract some attention from voters disillusioned by professional politicians. Both the established Democratic and Republican candidates came off as stiff, highly tailored, empty suits and Ventura found support with his informal, working-class persona. He was the anti-elitist good guy who became more likable with every phony TV ad bought by his opponents.
Second, he galvanized a constituency not reached by modern politicians - young people. Forty-nine percent of the people who voted for Ventura were between 18 and 29 years old. He carried the young white male vote - huge in snowy Minnesota. The same TV dustpans that carry memories of "The Body" in pink spandex emptied their political frustration into the Ventura candidacy.
Ventura gained respect out of our generation's childhood reverence. We grew up watching his act, but the tactics of the other candidates backfired and created a theater perfectly suited for Ventura. When the Democratic and Republican candidates refused to attack Ventura like they did each other, it looked like these traditional candidates didn't take him seriously.
Although they were trying to be nice, Humphrey and Coleman were actually feeding resentment against themselves. Ventura is a former superstar to our generation, and when dorky politicians thumbed their noses (however politely), it brought out the Wrestlemania in their fellow Minnesotans.
Finally, Minnesota's political culture facilitated the emergence of Ventura. At first glance, it might seem an unlikely place to vote a former pro-wrestler to the state's highest office. Minnesota is more educated and politically sophisticated than most states, but it also has a quiet rebellious side that digs an underdog like Ventura. Minnesota has an egalitarian culture in which fairness is an optimum value. Ventura was a perfect virtuous spoiler.
Nobody voted for Ventura because they agreed with his philosophy; neither he nor most voters claim a coherent political platform. Although Ventura's win is due in part to theatrics, he positioned himself as a credible candidate by appealing to a mixture of libertarian, conservative, liberal and populist themes that tug at the ideologically impure majority. Although his opponents themselves were not strict ideologues, he ran on a party ticket (Reform) that stressed a businesslike realism that enticed the antithetical electorate.
Ventura outmaneuvered his opponents by refusing to accept dirty Political Action Committee money.
It's a total WWF atmosphere, where the easily identified good guy is cheered on by the emotional gut feeling of the quarrelsome spectator.
Let's continue the wrestling/politics comparison for the third explanation of Ventura's win. Lines between good and evil in the WWF can inexplicably change during the course of a match. In much the same way, Ventura the candidate capitalized on the ideological ambiguities of the voters.
Consequently, Humphrey and Coleman weren't able to politically pigeon-hole him. With nearly a third of the country registered independent, people have as much allegiance to a party or an ideology as Hulk Hogan had to Jake "The Snake" Roberts. Pragmatism supersedes loyalty for wrestlers and voters alike, and it doesn't matter much if you previously supported someone in the ring or in office.
The mainstream media and politicians ignored him, and this played well with Minnesota's rally-around-the-victim mentality.
The question now is whether Ventura will be camel-clutched as governor after winning the main event. It will be hard for Ventura to gather support from a Legislature filled with Democrats and Republicans. Ventura did, after all, make both of parties look silly before a national audience. If any state can be patient, it's Minnesota. This election showed the power of the youth vote. Hopefully, the capitol in St. Paul won't resemble the same work environment that first brought Ventura into the national spotlight.

HOLLYWOOD THEATERS
Company has grip on market
Continued from page 1A
Jeff Bounds, a reporter with the Dallas Business Journal, has kept up with the home town company and was not surprised when he heard that Hollywood had sewed up all the major screens in Lawrence.
"If they're the only game in town, then they've accomplished their goal," he said recently, adding that students shouldn't be surprised by Hollywood's methods.
In fact, he describes Hollywood's methods as the Wal-Mart approach to movie theaters. The key to Hollywood's strategy, Bounds said, is to take control of the screens in small and medium-sized cities.
Jae Kim, associate analyst with the research firm Paul Kagan and Associates in Carmel, Calif., said that takeovers and buy-outs were just the economics of the business.
"The overall trend in the industry is to capture the market share by any means," he said. "If that means putting the competition totally out of business, then so be it."
Senate takes on Hollywood
The complaints on campus about the theater company started in mid-September. Words such as "veritable monopoly" were bouncing off the walls in Student Senate. While some wondered why Senate would bother trying to take on a Dallas-based company, student senators Alan Stearns, graduate senator; Mark Horowitz, graduate senator; and Maria Abatjogoul, liberal arts and sciences senator, decided to write the company a letter.
They asked the company to keep the Hillcrest Theater 5, the town's only dollar theater, open. If that were not economically feasible, they asked Hollywood to create a discount for students in Lawrence.
Steve Wood, managing director of the AMC Studio 30, 12075 South Strang Line Road in Olathe, was letting KU students get into his 30-screen theater for $3.75.
Besides pressure from the University's Student Senate, the company also was feeling heat from nearby megaplexes in Olathe.
"Since we've opened, we've offered student discounts," he said. "We believe in student pricing. We understand how much it costs to go to college, and we want to give college students a break."
One special that attracted KU students to the AMC Studio 30 was the mega-movie deal.
The coupon, which offered student admission and up to $20 in concessions for $7.5, started running in *The University Daily Kansan* in the beginning of September. The coupon stopped running on Oct. 30, the same day the Hollywood discount went in to effect.
Wood said that although Johnson County Community College students did get the $3.75 discount movie rates,
they did not get the deal KU students had.
"The purpose of the mega-movie deal is to let students of Lawrence know that there is another theater only 30 minutes away," he said. "We think that once we get them in the door, we'll get them for life."
AMERICAN EXPRESS
The AMC Studio 30 saw about 100 KU students a day when the mega-movie deal was being offered.
Although Wood said it was too early to tell whether the new Hollywood discount and the expired mega-movie deal had cut the number of KU students making the trip to his theater, he said he probably would start to offer the discount again after the holiday season ends.
While students waited for a response from Hollywood on a discount, and while the Lawrence chain was losing customers to Olathe theaters, the company was already offering a discount to

Tracy Bundy, Hollywood Theaters representative, said that the company's theater in Waco, Texas, The 'Hollywood Jewel, had a student discount. She said that the discount was in place to "test" the discount with students at Baylor University.
Karen Harmon, entertainment editor of The Baylor Lariat, Baylor University's student newspaper, had a different take.
"The Hollywood Jewel was the main theater in town," she said. "But then a
Starplex Theater moved to town, and that theater has offered a student discount since the day it opened."
Harmon said that virtually all the Baylor students went to the Starplex.
"I think since all the stu-
denus were heading to the
school, I should go."

Getting the discount
Starplex, The Hollywood Jewel
Facing similar problems in Lawrence, the company started offering student tickets for $4.75, the same discount it offers in Waco.
Bundy said that the decision to lower student prices in Lawrence was made in an all-staff meeting at Hollywood Inc.
"We evaluated the prices and decided that the discount for college students in Lawrence was something we could do," she said.
Regular admission prices were changed as well, but in the other direction. Regular admission went from $6 to $6.25.
Bundy said that one price change had nothing to do with the other.
Abatoglou was happy that Senate's goal had been achieved.
"It was so easy," she said. "All we had to do was ask."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, liked that a tangible benefit for the students came from Student Senate.
"This is a great success for Senate to achieve," he said. "A lot of times people say 'What does Student Senate do for me?' This is a time that Senate came
together, did some work and got something positive done for the students."
The original request in the letter from Senate — to reopen Hillcrest — seemed forgotten, along with the company's monopoly in Lawrence. Meanwhile, students seemed content with the new lower prices, and Senate members spent the day the discount was announced patting themselves on the back.
Others were not so impressed.
Matt Dunn, Lawrence resident, didn't like that although student admissions went down, regular admissions went up.
"I felt like $6 was already a high price for a movie," he said. "Now I see that students got a break, but they're taking an extra quarter out of my pocket in the meantime."
Bounds said a company only could get away with the price increase in a small market like Lawrence.
"If they did that in Dallas, everyone would just start going to different theaters." he said.
Theater alternatives
In Lawrence, there are some alterna tives to paying for a Hollywood movie.
Jerry O'Leary, film coordinator for Student Union Activities, said that many students still didn't take advantage of SUA's discounted prices.
"On average, we only get about 10 people a show," he said. "We'd really like to see that grow."
O'Leary said that SUA showed second-run movies in the Kansas Union.

"The stuff Hollywood is showing now, we'll have next semester," he said. "But our movies are $2 through the week, $3 on weekends, and we have a candy counter that has 50-cent candy bars, rather than the expensive stuff they have at the big theaters."
Scott Bliss, manager of Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., said that his tickets cost $5.50 but that his theater did show first-run movies.
"We don't show Hollywood blockbuster movies, but they are first-run," he said. "We show art movies, independent films and foreign language films."
Bliss predicted that the public eventually would get sick of the current trend of big theaters.
AMC Studio 30 overbuilt themselves so bad that they're giving KU students food free just to fill seats," he said. "It's like an assembly line. They want you in there with your trash-can-size bucket of popcorn, your Goobers and Raisinettes and then they want you out. It's been a long time since going to the movies has been a labor of love. They don't care, and it's kind of sad."
The prediction by analysts is that Hollywood will continue to dominate the Lawrence movie market.
Kim said that the Lawrence market wasn't big enough to support competition.
"If one company already has the Lawrence market scratched out for themselves, don't plan on any new competition," he said.

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 bow.
"There's nothing more I'd like to give her for her birthday present than a win." Allen said.
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.
"Obviously, at home they have great fan support and come to play, and, hopefully, we can do the same thing at home this week." he said.
All this adds up to a not-so-big edge for the Wildcats.
Plus, Kansas is coming off the biggest win of the sea
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.
looming?
Does this mean there is a quarterback controversy
"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.
White, Oakland said. Well, now is the Jayhawks' big chance.
Well, how is the Jayhawks big in the Network? 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 door for a number of other teams to share the spotlight with the Jayhaws.
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.
"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."
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 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

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.
The Sunflower Showdown deserves only a side glance as the Wildcats roll to their first win in years against Nebraska, a Big 12 title and a spot in the Fiesta Bowl, they say.
"There's more attention than I thought there would be," he said.
However, any recognition of the Kansas football team is tempered by an overwhelming confidence.
It's attention Kansas drew by beating 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.
Craig Harries, a Kansas State student majoring in agricultural education and animal science, summed up the attitude in Manhattan
"We're going to come in there and blow you raws 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.
In the '80s, when both teams were doormats of the Big Eight Conference, the games might have been bad Doug Flutie famous.
ence, the games might have been bad did someone say toilet bowl?— but they were often close.
15
And it should be no different as Kansas State rates in the rankings.
Given the right breaks —I don't mean lightning hitting the Kansas State buses as they travel down 1-70 —Kansas will win Saturday.
The Jayhawks are 3-5 but danger-
ons.

running back David Winbush and the rest of the team are capable of moving the ball and scoring.
Players such as linebacker Steve Bratten, who steps on the field never knowing which play will be his last because of a recoccurring knee injury, have driven the team this season.
The Jayhawks also have heart. Despite injuries to important starters and close losses to conference opponents, the team continues to battle.
All the ingredients are there for a classic upset in the vein of the Boston College vs. Miami game that made
Kansas fans, this is about ardor, fan fervor, outlandish antics and screaming.
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.
Now that we've warmed up, there's only one place to be Saturday — Memorial Stadium.
The crowd support during the Colorado game was outstanding.
Don't allow the purple-clad visitors to sit in our seats.
Release the energy of the rivalry.
Memorial Stadium will be packed with emotion at kickoff.
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.
G 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 arms to win this contest.
In a scrappy game, decided in the final moments, Kansas will win 31-28.

Commentary
C
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 whoop Kansas.
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 Buffaloes gives Kansas fans — all three of them — hope when their team plays Kansas State tomorrow.
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.
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.
Kansas State 41. Lawrence State 7.
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

again, the Jayhawks couldn't beat a decent high school team.
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.

rado, Texas — it doesn't matter. You can't score on these guys. They have given up 57 points during seven games.
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.
Flying high on David Winbush's 285 yards, birdbackers? Enjoy it now because he won't even gain 50 yards when he faces the Lynch Mob.
Just ask Ricky Williams, the all-world 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 (Nov. 10).
Your lesson is power: how to gain it, how to keep it and how to transmit it to others. That's a lesson you'll learn in October and November.
The more power you give away, the more you'll gain in return, and the more good you will do. Make sure you stay on course through December by putting in necessary corrections. From December through March, you'll be pushing hard for success.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
You might feel as if you're being pushed to make a romantic commitment. Don't resist too hard, especially if this is in your own best interest. You tend to be something of a rebel. This time, you might gain more by graciously acquiescing to a loved one's demands. It could turn out to be great fun.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 5. You're still in tough negotiations, but that's OK. The more you hold out for what you want, the more likely you are to get it. Conditions are shifting in your favor, but it hasn't happened quite yet. It's important for you to be firm about the most important parts of your requests, at least through the end of the week.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) Today is a 6.
You'll be gathering so much information and confidence today as you learn the ins and outs of what's going on that you'll emerge as a completely new person. When you went into this situation, you were in a daze. Now you're getting the wherewithal to reshape it to your specifications.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 7.
Money is coming in although it may not seem like enough. This is actually a feeling you bring with you. It seems as if there’s never enough, but don’t be dismayed. That’s the key to your success. Your natural tendency to hoard is what makes Cancer the sign of the millionaire.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22); Today is a 5.
You're strong and good looking, but you also are careful and considerate of others. Somebody in your life requires a lot of attention right now, so don't let all the energy go to feeding your own fantasies. Take care of somebody else's fantasies as well. That person can teach you something important.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 6.
You'll have to hustle to keep up with a demanding
person's requests, but that's OK. If you humor this
arrangent so-and-so now, you'll benefit later. You'll get
the reputation of being outstanding in your field, and
more business will come your way but hopefully not
from people who are this hard to deal with.
2
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Somebody wants to tell you what to do, and you might decide it's not worth resisting. Don't do what the other person wants if you're going to end up with less rather than more. Hold out for the very best of everything.
T
---
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Today is a 5.
What appears to be a problem could turn out to be a blessing. A person who's difficult to get along with is actually your best coach. Don't shut your ears to one who's saying something you don't want to hear.
ALPHA
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Today is a 6.
You're wanting to go, but somebody is clamping a lid on your enthusiasm, or so it seems. Actually, just the opposite is true. It's important for you to learn restraint. It makes you more effective in the long run.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 7.
You'll have several problems today, and you might feel stuck more than once. Those moments will push you to exceed your normal level of creativity. What you end up with may be nothing you thought you'd get, but that's the risk you take when you let your imagination have free rein.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Put as much as you can into a solid investment. This is called priming the pump. You put a little in now, you get a lot out later. This is not a gamble. It's more like backing a friend with encouragement. Toss in a little good advice, too, just to protect your investment.
M
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 4.
Don't get into a battle between two people with eggs bigger than yours. Just steer them toward the right way of thinking. You have a good idea of what that is, but both seem off track. That's why they're arguing so enthusiastically. Provide the puzzle piece they're missing, and you'll end up looking like the hero.

Injured American skier carves slower slopes
— Kansan staff reports
NEW YORK — The scars that run up and down Picabo Street's legs are
painful remainders of her frightening crash eight months ago in Switzerland.
But the real pain from the accident that shattered her left leg and tore up her right knee rests with the psyche of America's top skier, the 1998 Olympic gold medalist in the super G.
"I have a real strong feeling that I am going to be too afraid to run down-hill again," said Street, the lone American to win the World Cup down-hill crown.
"And if I am afraid to run downhill, I would be afraid to run super G.",
"Street said, her crutches nearby during a series of promotional appearances yesterday for the New York Ski and Snowboard Ball.
Instead Street, who won the world downhill title in 1995-96, will probably turn to the slalom and giant slalom events.
Her goal is to compete in 2000 and to race in the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City.
"That's America, baby, and I can't imagine passing it up," said the 27-year-old Street, who had full reconstructive surgery on her right knee four weeks ago.
"The world is not coming to Salt Lake City and me being on the sidelines watching," said Street, who hopes to be back on skis next spring.
Focusing on racing in the slower events, Street will be listening to her fears of going too fast again.
"It is going to be like, 'You are going to hit the fence again and blow yourself out again,' " said Street, who took an Olympic silver medal in the downhill in 1954. "Is it worth it?"
"That hurts me very much, but I've had a long-running stint with it, and it's been fun," said Street.
"You play hard, you pay hard. I am not so sure that I am ready to play that hard or pay that hard anymore."

NBA season still locked; sides not back negotiating
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — At the pace NBA owners and players are negotiating, the season may not start until 1999.
The two sides did not talk for the second straight day, and as the lockout entered its 132nd day, there was no sign when stalled negotiations would resume.
The start of the season already has been pushed back to mid-December. If talks don't start again soon, the season may not begin until next year, if at all.
The owners ended the most recent talks on Friday after 1/2 hours when the union was unwilling to back off its proposal of keeping 60 percent of the revenue. Players received 57 percent of revenue last season, prompting the league to reopen its labor contract.
The owners, who wanted to pay no more than 51.8 percent last season, want the percentage scaled back to 50 percent.
Union director Billy Hunter was angered Friday when the owners contacted players about the league's latest proposal, a move Hunter described as an attempt to divide the union. Hunter claimed efforts were underway in Boston, Cleveland, Miami and Milwaukee to get players to support the NBA's latest plan.
The union will spend the next few days contacting players to keep them abreast of developments. The negotiating committee will probably meet this week to discuss making a new proposal to the league.
In the first regular-season work stoppage in NBA history, three more games were lost Sunday, increasing the total to 48.

Sooner men expect trip to tournament
Coach confident despite the loss of his top scorers
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
The Oklahoma men's basketball team is looking to build on its success from last season with another 20-win season and trip to the NCAA Tournament.
Under head coach Kelvin Sampson, the Sooners have averaged 20.3 wins per season and have qualified for the NCAA Tournament in each of his four seasons. Oklahoma is returning three starters, but Samson said he was unsure how his team would respond
after graduating its two most productive players.
They lost shooting guard Corey Brewer who averaged 20.8 points per game, earned a spot on the first-team All-Big 12 and was named honorable mention All-America. Center Evan Wiley, who was second with 10.7 points a game, also graduated.
"I have a hard time getting a handle on this队," Sampson said. "I think we are pretty good. Losing Brewer, we don't have a dominant scorer waiting to take over. This team has really taken on a different personality; maybe because we don't have a guy we can look to, a guy we can draw up a play and run a certain play for."
bly the quickest player in the Big 12. Last year he averaged 7.1 points per game and led the team with 4 assists per game. Johnson also was a member of

is because we are returning a point guard. For the first time since I have been at Oklahoma, I'm not having to start over
with an entirely different point guard."
The two other retuning starters, forwards Ryan Humphrey and Eduardo Najera will be expected to pick up their scoring.
Humphrey, a high school AllAmerican, led the team in rebounding with 6.5 boards a game and was fourth in scoring with 9.2 points per game. Last season Humphrey was named first-team Academic All-Big 12, Honorable Mention All-Big 12 and was a member of the league's all-freshman team.
Najera started the first 20 games and came off the bench after he incurred a foot alliment. He was the team's third leading scorer with 10.5 points a game and the third leading rebounder grabbing 5.4 rebounds a game.
"I think we will play more as a team because we won't have to rely on just one main scorer," he said. "This will allow us to execute better than last year too."
The Sooners also return guard Eric Martin, the team's sixth man a year ago. He should join Johnson in the backcourt. Martin averaged 6.5 points off the bench.
Oklahoma also is hoping to get a lot of help in the middle from center Victor Avila. Avila, the preseason Newcomer-of-the-year, transferred to Oklahoma from Scottsdale (Ariz.) Community College. Last season he was a junior college All-American averaging 23.7 points, 15.3 rebounds and 2.8 blocks a game.
Oklahoma spirit rises with start of season
Women's team hopes player's return will boost basketball win record
By Sam Mellinger Kansas sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
You would think that 41 losses during the last two seasons would kill optimism around the Oklahoma women's basketball team.
Think again.
coaching staff."
Unfazed by her team's struggles in her first two seasons in Norman, coach Sherri Coale said that many losses were because of her insistence on running an up-tempo style with a roster better suited for a half-court game.
"We haven't had the personnel to do what I wanted, so I decided to swallow hard and take some lumps early," Coale said. "But this year is different, this is the first time the team has been driven, that they've wanted it as bad as the
Much of the reason for the new attitude is the healthy return of Stacey Dales, who Coale calls the program's savior.
"We are automatically a better transition team because Stacey will be at point running it," Coale said.
Dales tore the anterior cruciate ligament in her knee less in the season opener last year. She was given a medical redshirt.
When Dales went down, she took the team's spirits with her.
"It was huge," Coale said. "When she's on the floor, everyone else's game raises a level. All of a sudden, the kids who were rising on Stacey's ability fell right back where they were."
And fell into an 8-19 record, just a three game improvement from 1996-97.
The Sooners have faith that this year will be different and that Dales will make it possible. Dales was voted co-captain of the team, an incredible honor for a freshman.
"I feel like I've earned it," Dales said.
"I'm honored. You don't expect to be voted captain as a freshman. I exude confidence on a daily basis."
Last year's leading scorer for Oklahoma and All-Big 12 selection Phylesha Whaley said Dales
Whaley said Dales could live up to the nype.
"She can do about anything," Whaley said. "She's blunt, and that's the best way to go about things, and I think that's why the team respects her so much."
Dales said her ability would help.
"I don't think I'm the only key to our success, but I think
my ability to make my teammates better will enable us to be successful," she said. Coale said Dales' ability not diminished after the injury. She also said she
actually was a better player than before her ACL gave out.
Dales return also means that opposing defenses will not be free to focus as much attention on stopping Whaley. Playing through double and sometimes even triple teams last season, Whaley still managed to lead the Sooners in points (20.2 per game), rebounds (8.1 per game) and field goal and free throw accuracy (47.5 and 78.9 percent, respectively). She broke the 30-point barrier six times last season, including four games against nationally-ranked teams.
Coale said Whaley would benefit from having Dales on the floor.
"Phyleysha has to have a strong year," Coale said. "She's got a better supporting cast and I think she's better. She's unique in that she's never satisfied."
With Dales back in the lineup and another year with Coale, Whaley is confident the team will do better than is expected.
"Definitely, but that's not that hard when you're picked 10th in the conference," she said.
Commentary Kansas City teams disappoint fans
Kansas City's professional sports franchise puzzles me. ■ The Royals' administration has no idea what it's doing to a franchise that was once the most respected ball club in the league. Just sell the team, and get it over with.
They have a legitimate buyer in Miles Prentice, lawyer from New York. He had enough money to purchase the team months ago, but the Royals' board of directors — David Glass, Mike Merman and General Manager Herk Robinson — said, "Oh, by the way, half of your bid must be local."
Strangely enough, someone failed to mention this when the bidding began.
What Glass, Herman and Robinson would like to see happen is for Prentice to fail to receive enough local money and for the team to stay
Hey Miles, I have a couple of dollars.
These men, who have no money invested in the team, would love to sit in luxury boxes for another season with nothing to lose.
Which brings me to some strange events that have occurred this off season.
The Royals announces that staff ace Kevin Applier is on the trading block. Then they revealed their plan to cut the
Tony
Pacheco
payroll to $20 million. In addition to these wonderful strategies to win back the fans, the ticket prices go up.
But that didn't bother me as much as the way the club treated longtime radio announcer Fred White. I've listened to White for more than 15 years, and I loved his commentary. He always supported the Royals no matter how bad they were.
White had been an announcer for the Royals for 25 years and was fired by a guy who has been around for six months. That's classy.
Three months ago when I was in Las Vegas, I bet on the Kansas City Chiefs to win the AFC and the Superbowl.
At that time, the Chiefs were just out of training camp. There was talk of a 16-0 season and shutting out half of the opponents because of the dominating defense.
What a difference three months make.
Now, the Chiefs have lost four in a row, including two at Arrowhead Stadium, where they once seemed invincible (not including playoffs).
I have tickets to Chiefs' home games against Arizona and Dallas. Both games could mean absolutely nothing when the teams play. But I'll go and cheer for my Chiefs no matter what the weather, just as I and a couple of other fans did for the Jayhawk seniors Saturday.
Thanks seniors for making my last football game as a student a memorable one.
As for the things I said about the Chiefs and Royals, I swear those of you who aren't sports fans will live longer than those of us who are.
Pacheco is an Olathe senior in English.

Anticipation grows for Kansas State vs. Nebraska game
The Associated Press
Big 12 football coaches weren't ready yesterday to predict a winner of this week's
terday to predict a winn anticipated showdown between No. 2 Kansas State and No.11 Nebraska. However, they agree it should live up to the hype.
"I think Nebraska is still Nebraska, and Kansas State has not beaten them in some time," Colorado coach Rick Neuheil said. "So, if Nebraska goes in there with a little bit of a swagger, I think it's going to be a great ball game."
Kansas State (9-0) has rolled through the schedule this far thanks to its top-rated defense and the playmaking ability of quarterback Michael Bishop.
ous four years combined.
Nebraska, on the other hand, actually has lost two games this year, including one at home. Most universities gladly would take a two-loss season, but this is a program that had lost two games in the previ-
The Cornhuskers (8-2) have beaten Kansas State 29 straight times. There have been times in recent years when the Wildcats thought they had enough to beat Nebraska only to come up short.
But while Nebraska has history on its side. Kansas State has Bishop.
"He's a guy that can turn any play into a touchdown," said Kansas coach Terry Allen, whose team has lost to K-State and Nebraska this season.
Another coach with the same perspective is Bob Simmons of Oklahoma State. His team almost beat Nebraska and got wiped out by Kansas State on a day when Bishop threw five
287 yards on just eight completions.

"What he brings to them is the fact he's a winner," Simmons said. "He finds a way to get things done because he has been there. That's what a quarterback is supposed to do. He's supposed to win and lead his ball club."
Texas got hammered by Kansas State early in the year but later upset Nebraska in Lincoln. Coach Mack Brown said Kansas State deserved its No. 1 ranking in the coaches' poll, but he didn't seem ready to bank on a Kansas State victory this week.
"I don't know that anybody can beat Kansas State," he said. "But if anybody can beat Kansas State, Nebraska can do it because they're settled down at quarterback. Eric Crouch may wind up to be one of the best they've ever had before it's a over."
Baylor coach Dave Roberts saw Kansas State beat his team 49-6 last weekend. Last season, Baylor played Nebraska and Michigan, which went on to win a share of the national championship.
"They were all real good, and they were all real good in different ways," Roberts said. "But Kansas State is going to sit there with those guys. They're right there."
Iowa state coach Dan McMarney got a first-hand look at Nebraska last weekend in a 42-7 loss, and he said he expected the
Cornhuskers to give Kansas State a battle.
"I just think it's going to be a fantastic football game," he said. "They're going to have to do a great job from a turnover standpoint and do a good job of controlling the football. They have to somehow, some way move the ball against what I believe is the best defense in college football."
The Cornhuskers have had to work through injuries at quarterback while retooled the offensive line. He knows that the challenge will be much greater this week, but coach Frank Solich feels better after a solid performance against Iowa State.
"I know this—that our players have got confidence in themselves," he said. "We have stumbled a couple times, and there's times we have struggled, but this squad has hung together. In hanging together, I think they've shown a great deal. They're capable of playing very, very good football, and it's going to take all of that to get the job done Saturday."

The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Kerry Wood was narrowly voted National League Rookie of the Year yesterday, capping a season in which he struck out 20 batters.
out 20 batters in one game and helped the Chicago Cubs make the playoffs for the first time since 1989.
CUBS
The 21-year-old
right-hander received 16 first-place votes and 16 second-place votes to finish with 128 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. Colorado Rockies first baseman Todd Helton got 15 firsts, 14 seconds and two thirds for 119 points.
"It adds confidence that people who watch the game and people who follow baseball acknowledged as good a season as I've had." Wood said.
Wood was 13-6 with a 3.40 ERA in 25 starts, striking out 233 in 166 2/3 innings. He was more impressive at Wrigley Field, going 9-1 with a 2.97 ERA in 13 starts during the regular season.
Baseball took notice of Wood on May 6 when he struck out 20 -- only Roger Clemens had done it before in a nine-inning game -- while pitching a one-hitter against Houston.
"It helped me finally realize that I was capable of pitching at that
level," Wood said. "The previous four starts before that were rocky. I had a couple of good ones and a couple of bad ones."
Wood was the odds-on favorite to win the rookie award heading into the final month of the season. But because of a dead arm, his start against Cincinnati on Aug. 31 was his last of the regular season.
Wood returned in Game 3 of the NL playoffs, allowing one run, not earned, against Atlanta as the Cubs were eliminated. His elbow will be examined again in about two weeks.
"Hopefully, in the next couple of days or so, I will start getting ready for the off season program, and we go from there." Wood said.
Helton batted .315 with 25 homers and 97 RBI, taking over at first base for the Rockies after Andres Galarraga left to sign with Atlanta following the 1997 season.
Arizona first baseman Travis Lee was third with 21 points and Atlanta closer Kerry Ligtenberg, who received the other first-place vote, was fourth with 18 points.
Lee hit .269 with 22 homers and 72 RBI. Ligtenberg replaced Mark Wohlers as the Braves' closer and finished with 30 saves.
The AL Rookie of the Year will be announced today. Oakland outfielder Ben Grieve and New York Yankees pitcher Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez are the favorites.
Kansas men ignored as top positions; injured players Hamilton, Cleaves picked
Basketball All-America team selected
By Jim O'Connell The Associated Press
Richard Hamilton of Connecticut and Matee Cleaves of Michigan State, two juniors slowed by
injuries during the summer, were the top vote-getters yesterday in The Associated Press' preseason All-America team.
WOLF
Sophomore Elton Brand of Duke and Lee Nailon of Texas Christian and Andre Miller of Utah, both
seniors, also were voted to the team by the same 72-member media panel that selects the weekly college basketball poll. Hamilton, the
TCU
Big East player of the year last season, and Cleaves, who won the same honor in the Big Ten, were hurt during tryouts for the U.S. team that competed in the world championships.
Hamilton, the
Hamilton, who received 66 votes, broke his right foot and underwent surgery but has not been hampered during practice with the second-ranked Huskies.
Cleaves, who had 58 votes, sprained an ankle in the July tryouts then slightly separated a shoulder in a fall in August. He has been going full speed during the fifth-ranked Spartans' practices. Both were second-team All-Americas last season.
Brand was third in the voting with 55 votes, followed by Nailon, 50, and Miller. 44.
Seniors Trajan Langdon of Duke and Wally Szczerblak of Miami of Ohio were the next highest in the voting with 12 each. Kenny Thomas of New Mexico, also a senior, had 10 votes and was the only player in double figures.
Hamilton, a 6-foot-6 swingman, averaged 21.5 points and 4.4 rebounds last season as the conference champion Huskies went 32-5, falling one game short of the school's first Final Four appearance.
"He's got a chance to be the best ever at UConn. He's clearly heading into that class," coach Jim Calhoun said. "If you put him on the court, he's going to score - I don't care where he is. He's really special, and I think this year he wants to do even more things."
conference title and the round of 16 in the NCAA tournament. He averaged 16.1 points and 7.2 assists. Like Connecticut, Michigan State has five starters back in trying to go deeper into the NCAA tournament.
"There's no doubt in my mind that Mateen will rise to the occasion," coach Tom Izzo said. "Last season proved that if Mateen is really challenged, he'll respond brilliantly."
Cleaves, a stocky 6-2 playmaker, led the Spartans to a share of the
Brand used summer international competition to show he was completely recovered from a foot injury that caused him to miss 15 games in his freshman season. He returned late in the season and averaged 13.4 points and 7.3 rebounds as Duke finished 32-4, losing in the finals.
The 6-8 Brand led the U.S. team to a gold medal in the Goodwill Games, averaging 17.0 points and 7.6 rebounds against older, more experienced players.
"The Goodwill Games was tremendous for Elton Brand," said Mike Krzyzewski, the coach of the top-ranked Blue Devils. "Everybody has said he was a great player, but he was not a great player last year. He was going to be a great player when he got hurt, and then at the end of the year, he wasn't a great player but a good player that wasn't in top condition. The Goodwill Games gave him an opportunity to know he is a great player."
ing returning scorer at 24.9 points per game, applied for the NBA draft then removed his name to return to the Horned Frogs, who went 27.6 and lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament, Nailon, who averaged 8.9 rebounds, was a co-Western Athletic Conference player of the year and was chosen third-team All-America.
The 6-9 Nailon, the nation's lead
"I don't think you're going to see a lot different Lee Nailon," coach Billy Tubbs said. "I think you're going to see a better Lee Nailon, although his stats might not show it. He's going to be better because he's worked his tail off. Does that mean he's going to score 30 points a game? Maybe not. But he's going to be better."
The 6-8 Miller, an honorable mention All-America last season, led the Utes to a 30-4 record, including 18-0 in winning the WAC, and the NCAA championship game where they lost to Kentucky. He averaged 14.2 points and 5.2 assists last season and also was a key figure on the U.S. team in the Goodwill Games, averaging 10.8 points.
"In my opinion, Andre Miller is the best returning point guard in America," coach Rick Majerus said. "There is no better competitor or as gifted a player anywhere."
Last year's preseason All-America team — Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce of Kansas, Mike Bibby and Miles Simon of Arizona and Antwau Jamison of North Carolina — also was the postseason team.

Leader of Speaker race unchallenged
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Rep. Bob Livingston, a pragmatic conservative from Louisiana, took command of the House Speaker race yesterday as his only rival Rep. Christopher Cox of California dropped out and the second-ranking Republican leader paid a courtesy call.
"The truth is, the vote is in," Cox said, who was a formal candidate for less than 72 hours. "Bob Livingston is going to be our next speaker, and I'm withdrawing my name for that reason."
Majority Leader Dick Armey of Texas went to visit Livingston in his office across the street, said representative Michele Davis.
"He went over there to congratulate him," she said.
Arney, too, has enough votes to ward off challenges, Davis said. Even so, GOP sources said Rep. Jennifer Dunn of Washington is poised to announce a bid to topple Arney, joining
Rep. Steve Largent of Oklahoma in that race.
Gingrich returned to the Capitol for the first time since Republicans lost seats in last week's midterm elections, an event that led to his decision Friday to step down as speaker.
Livingston, 55, who chairs the Appropriations Committee and was elected last Tuesday to his 11th full term. Cox announced his decision on ABC's Good Morning America, then wrote a letter to fellow Republican lawmakers, saying Livingston deserved unanimous support as he took on the challenge.
As a veteran of the Appropriations Committee, Livingston has spent a career making deals with lawmakers of both parties to build support for legislation. While solidly conservative, he bristled at several points during the last few years when other conservatives wanted to use the spending bills that came out of his committee to carry controversial amendments dealing with social issues.
Gingrich's decision to step down sparks student reactions
By Chad Bottos
Kansan staff writer
Since the surprise announcement last week by Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, RGa., that he would not seek reelection for his top leadership post in January, the political world has been spinning the story in many directions.
Some students and other members of the KU community are following the story as it unfolds.
KU Young Republicans president Ward Cook, Mission Hills senior, said there was little doubt that U.S. Rep. Bob Livingston, R-La., would succeed Gingrich as speaker. He applauded Gingrich's decision not to seek re-election, calling it an honorable and intelligent move.
"He may have been respected and admired by
Republicans, but actually getting things done is something different. "Cook said."
He thought Gintrich realized the party needed this change in order to take back
F. W. HARRISON
Gingrich: Leaves past as Speaker of the House.
that a change was necessary because Gingrich's reputation had been hurt.
"He was portrayed as the bad guy far more times than he
deserved," McAvan said.
"When the party was attacked, Gingrich was attacked, and it marred his reputation."
Cook said Republicans had the right ideas for policy but realized the message was not getting across to the public.
"Until we can get the message out like we did in 1994, we're going to lose." Cook said, referring to the Contract with America that swept Republicans into office across the country.
Allan Cigler, professor of political science, said after Republicans took control of Congress four years ago, they began to lose control of the agenda.
He added that Kansans will not have a big voice in the leadership decisions because of their lack of seniority after the retirements of leaders such as Sens. Bob Dole and Nancy Kassbeau Baker.
Reno initiates new task force to prevent abortion attacks
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Attorney General Janet Reno posted a $500,000 reward for the capture of the sniper who killed Barnett Slepian, and she set up a national task force to prosecute and prevent attacks and threats against other abortion providers.
The slaying of Sleipan last month by a rifle shot fired into his suburban Buffalo, N.Y., home was another act of violence in a series of savage attacks against providers of reproductive health care, Remo said at a news conference yesterday.
"These attacks and others seek to undermine a woman's basic constitutional right — the right to reproductive health care," Reno said. "And while some
people may oppose that right, no one should ever use violence to impede it."
In announcing the $500,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of Slepian's killer, Reno asked anyone with information to call 1-800-281-1184.
with information on the new National Clinic Violence Task Force will be headed by Bill Lann Lee, acting assistant attorney general in charge of the Justice Department's civil rights division. Since 1994, the division has brought 27 criminal and 17 civil cases under the federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.
From mid-1994 until early 1996, a federal grand jury in Alexandria, Va., searched in vain for evidence of a national conspiracy behind an earlier wave of ant-abortion violence. It did find evidence used later by other federal grand juries to bring indictments in several clinic arson cases around the country.
The new task force will use federal grand jurists to gather evidence wherever attacks or threats occurred, a senior federal official said, requesting anonymity.
The task force also will train local law enforcement and abortion providers how to respond to and prevent such attacks. Two training sessions already are scheduled for December.
Reno said she wanted federal prosecutors to share information about the requirements for a FACE Act prosecution, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms to provide data on bombs
and explosives and the FBI to advise on how acid is used in the attacks. She said the goal was to make sure everyone across the country knew what to look for, how to look for it and how to preserve evidence.
serve evidence. The task force will establish a national database with all information on clinic violence and share it with local law enforcement through clinic violence-working groups already established by U.S. attorneys. It will identify at-risk clinics and improve their security.

Ruling rejects White House privilege claim
The Associated Press
Rejecting a White House appeal that stems from
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court yesterday let stand a ruling that says presidential confidant Bruce Lindsey and other White House lawyers cannot refuse to answer a federal grand jury's questions about possible criminal conduct by government officials.
Rejecting a win in an investigation of President Clinton's relationship Montica Levinsky, the court aimed away arguments that the attorney-client privilege of confidentialityWhite House
Clinton Investigation
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
privilege of confidentiality extends to a president's White House lawyers.
The action could open the door for Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr to question Lindsey about his conversations with the president concerning Ms. Lewinsky, barring a White House decision to again raise the separate issue of executive privilege. It also could allow Starr to obtain fresh evidence as impeachment proceedings against Clinton begin in Congress.
Responding to the Supreme Court action, Starr's office said the Clinton administration had "substantially delayed and impeded the grand jury's right to evidence" by invoking various privileges, including the attorney-client claim involving Clinton and Lindsey.
A federal appeals court panel, voting 2-1 last July, ruled that Lindsey could not invoke the privilege to withhold information relating to a criminal defense.
White House counsel Charles Ruff called the court's action disappointing. "We continue to believe that the attorney-client privilege should protect conversations between government officials and government attorneys," he said.
In a separate case, the court refused to shield Secret Service officers from having to testify to federal grand juries about information they learn while protecting the president.

Waterboy makes big splash
Movie patrons pack theaters to see Sandler
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
When it rains, it pours, and The Waterboy proved too much of a temptation for Lawrence moviegoers this weekend.
Nick Guinan, general manager of Southwind 12,3433 Iowa St., said the Adam Sandler comedy attracted sell-out crowds throughout its opening weekend. But audience response to the critically blasted film varied, leading some students to question whether the sports comedy will be able to retain its audience.
Guinan said The Waterboy brought more substantial crowds to Southwind than any film since Saving PrIVATE Ryan, the Steven Spielberg D-Day epic that has become one of 1998's biggest hits. This newer film, about a college team's waterboy who ascends to football stardom, held an advantage, he said.
"This was better," Guinan said. "One thing that hurt Private Ryan was that it was a long film. We couldn't get as many showtimes into it."
The 160-minute Saving Private Ryan grossed $30.6 million during its first week in release in July. By contrast, The Waterboy, which can provide theaters with multiple viewings because of its 85-minute running time, took in an estimated $39.1 million nationwide.
The high numbers on the nation were repeated at Southwind. Guinan said The Waterboy played on two screens; one theater
seats 300 people, and the other has a capacity of 265. Despite providing crowds with 11 different showtimes, the theater still sold out the majority of its showings and had to call in extra workers to help with the evening crowds, Guinan said.
"I knew it'd be busy, but I didn't anticomp-
it it doing as well as it did," he said.
The Waterboy faces new competition this week from Meet Joe Black,starring Brad Pitt,and the horror sequel I Still Know What You Did Last Summer. Guinan said he hoped The Waterboy would sustain its popularity, but University of Kansas students who attended the movie this weekend were divided on its quality.
"I didn't like it at all," said Jon Heinz, Minapolis senior. "There were certain funny parts, but the plot was cheesy."
Mike Cline, Leawood freshman, said people who enjoyed Sandler's romantic comedy The Wedding Singer would probably balk at this new flick's rough humor.

"It's not the same kind of comedy." Cline said. "It's like Billy Madison, less concerned with story. It was Adam Sandler comedy at its best. There were a lot of good lines, and it was a funny story."

E-mail error leads to page mix-up
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
A glitch in an e-mail transmission to the Lawrence JournalWorld on Monday night led to the reprint of the The University Daily Kansan's Oct. 30 sports front yesterday.
The Kansan e-mails its pages to the Journal-World, which is the Kansan's printer.
Matt Friedrichs, Kansan sports editor and proctor at Stephenson Scholarship Hall, said he learned of the mistake from Jennifer Wamelink, assistant director of student housing.
"I didn't understand how it could have happened because we have designers and news editors who look at the pages before they are emailed," he said. "When I got to the newsroom, I apologized to all of my reporters who didn't get their stories printed yesterday."
Jodie Chester, Kansan editor, said that the mistake was unfortunate and that readers could find what they had missed on the third page of today's sports section
Reprinting the Oct. 30 page was a technical problem, said Ralph Gage. Journal-World general manager.
On Monday night, the Journal- World computer used for receiving the Kansan's e-mail locked up. A back-up computer was used to attempt to retrieve the page.
Gage said the employee who was looking for yesterday's page found the Oct. 30 page, which had not been deleted from the computer system.
Tom Eblen, Kansan general manager, said everyone was embarrassed, but it wasn't the mistake of the Kansan.
Sending the pages through e-mail almost always works, but occasionally a few mistakes take place, he said.
He said that despite the error, the Kansan valued its relationship with the Journal-World.
"The Journal-World was responsive to the concerns of the Kansan," he said.
Yesterday's Page 1B was found on the Journal-World's computer system yesterday morning. It was the only page that did not arrive at the Journal-World on Monday night.

University wants at least 200 by the year 2000
Kansan staff writer
By Steph Brewer
Now that minority enrollment numbers at the University of Kansas are up 12 percent from 1994, the challenge is to hire more minority faculty.
Minority faculty increased from 125 members in Fall 1995 to 152 members in 1998, said Cancellor Robert Hemenway.
"I think we've made progress, but this is an area where we need to make more progress," Hemenway said.
Hemenway said the University hired 18
minority faculty last year. He wanted to have 200 minority faculty by the year 2000.
"The numeric goal is a very noble and dignified attempt at integrating the minority faculty pool," said Sherwood Thompson, director of the Office of Minority Affairs.
Thompson said it would be a

tremendous challenge to meet that goal by 2000.
He said that one way to attract minority faculty to a predominantly white campus would be to develop new academic programs for them within their departments.
Hemenway said the University was looking for minority scholars across the nation. He said the administration would not stop recruiting even after fulfilling the year 2000 goal.

Festivities continue today when University of Kansas ROTC members talk to students at McClouth High School and Washburn University about the importance of Veterans Day.
Local military groups kicked off Veterans Day festivities yesterday with two on-camp events.
The candlelight vigil began in front of Strong Hall and was in honor of American soldiers who were, or still are, missing in action or prisoners of war.
"It's a way for us to show them our appreciation for everything they've done for us," said Lt. Col. Anthony Gasbarre, KU ROTC coordinator.
Following the brief ceremony, the lamp was carried to the Veterans Memorial, just west of Strong Hall, where it would be guarded for 24 hours by ROTC members, he said.
During yesterday's events, the ROTC program began a candlelight vigil, and the University of Kansas Veterans Service Office held a veterans' appreciation reception.
He said members would guard the flame in one-hour shifts.
The Veterans' appreciation reception was held at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union.
making sacrifices to protect America's freedom.
The reception dealt with national and local veterans' issues and honored veterans for
Marla Herron, event coordinator and assistant registrar, said the event recognized sacrifices made by veterans and that it was right to honor them for their services.
"I're really glad that we can do this for veterans," she said. "It's important for them to
see how much we appreciate them."
The keynote speaker for the reception was decorated Vietnam veteran John Musgrave, who periodically speaks to University classes about his experiences in Vietnam.
Besides these events, the University also honored veterans during halftime of Saturday's football game.

De La Soul canceled; tickets to be refunded
The hip-hop group De La Soul, which was to perform Thursday at the University of Kansas, will not be coming to town.
Students who have purchased tickets can get their refunds at the business window across from the Commerce Bank office on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union.
The window is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday to Friday, including lunch hours.
Students need to present a photo ID. Refunds will be given only to the purchaser, said Mary Smith, Student Union Activities box office supervisor.
Smith said almost 150 tickets had been sold for the concert that was to be performed at 8 p.m. in the Kansas Ballroom. The room can accommodate almost 1,000 students.
She said purchases made by Mastercard or Visa would be credited automatically.
The concert was canceled because of contractual difficulties, said Matt Dunehoo, Shawnee junior and SUA live music coordinator.
Dunetho, who has been working on the project since July, said that communication problems between the agency and SUA led to the cancellation.
"Our deadlines to the agency kept getting pushed back," he said. "They were extremely hard to get a hold of. We made exceptions but they failed to return the favor."
Dunehoo hoped to compensate students by inviting another artist.

Lawrence residents robbed for second time
The home of the three Lawrence residents who were tapped up and robbed Friday was a target again. Early yesterday morning, someone entered the home and stole a shotgun.
The victims were away from the home, in the 1000 block of N. 1800 Road, when the second theft occurred.
The victims told sheriff's officers they thought the incidents were connected, but officers do not yet have evidence to confirm that.

around midnight through the unlocked

He said whoever broke into the house searched through it while they were there but only stole the gun.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — A double-homicide suspect and a convicted felon were still on the run yesterday after a weekend break from the county jail, but four other escapees were back in custody.
Inmate James Wedlow, 16, was captured Sunday at an apartment building north of downtown.

Federal Express pilots consider strike for raise
MEMPHIS, Tenn. — On the eve of the holiday shipping season, pilots have stopped working overtime for Federal Express Corp., and their union sent out strike authorization ballots in an effort to restart contract talks.
The cargo carrier and the FedEx Piplots Association have been negotiating off and on since July. No talks have been held since Oct. 30.
Federal Express said it anticipated no disruption in service and plans to keep shipments moving no matter what the union decides, relying on the company's truck fleet, as well as contract planes and flight crews from other companies.
FedEx is offering a 1.7 percent pay raise during the next five years.
The union wants a 5 percent raise retroactive to a negotiated date and an additional 1.9 percent during the next four years and are concerned about work schedules and job security.

BOGOTA, Colombia — U.S. customs authorities in Florida have seized a Colombian air force cargo plane carrying at least 1,200 pounds of cocaine, the air force said yesterday.
Colombian military plane held for having cocaine
The C-130 Hercules, carrying 700 packages of the drug in its cargo bays, was seized in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., on Monday, air force commander Gen. Jose Manuel Sandoval told reporters. He said
the plane contained 1,200 to 1,500 pounds of cocaine.
Sandoval said the air force had not yet decided whether to suspend or dismiss any of the six-man crew. He said they had not been arrested but were in a Fort Lauderdale hotel awaiting action by U.S. prosecutors.
DHAKA, Bangladesh — A general strike has ground Bangladesh's already crippled economy to a halt, as protesters and police clashed for a second day yesterday in several cities.
Strike in Bangladesh chokes poor economy
At least 100 people were injured yesterday in the southeastern port of Chitagong, the independent United News of Bangladesh reported. That followed clashes Monday in which three people were killed and 200 injured.
In Dhaka, the capital, opposition activists with firecrackers and rocks clashed with police and supporters of the governing party.
The strike, called by an alliance of seven opposition parties to protest what they say was an attempt by police to kill their leader, Khaleda Zia, has halted most traffic and shut down banks, businesses, stores and schools in a nation of 120 million people.
Each day the strike costs the Bangladeshi economy about $68 million, Finance Minister Shah Mohammad Kibria said.
Bangladesh's economy is already hurting from months of severe flooding that cost the poor nation billions of dollars in lost crops and damaged infrastructure.
Serbia cracks down on independent media
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia — In an ongoing purge of Serbia's independent media, the government yesterday took control of a popular radio station, and police impounded all 100,000 copies of a leading daily newspaper.
Radio Index, a student-run Belgrade station, was first shut down last month for allegedly broadcasting without a license. Yesterday, the Belgrade university board, under government demands, announced it was replacing the station's editors.
Earlier, police raided the headquarters of Dnevnai Telegraf (Daily Telegraph) and confiscated yesterday's edition. The action came after the daily failed to pay a fine of $120,000 for allegedly breaching a restrictive media law.
The station's editor in chief, Nenad Cekic, who already faces criminal charges, protested the board's decision, and Radio Index later issued a statement rejecting it.
The moves against the two media outlets are the latest in a series of crackdowns against fledgling independent media following the adoption of the restrictive information law last month.

ity numbers of students, Thompson said.
In an Oct. 12 Kansan article, Robert Page,
assistant director of admissions, attributed
the increase of students to minority student
involvement in recruitment efforts.
Page said he was pleased with the increase but wanted minority enrollment at 10 percent. It is at 9.8 percent now.
Thompson said the University needed to have a coordinated effort to inform students of specific programs. He said individual schools needed to promote their programs.
"We need to sell our outstanding programs more aggressively to minority students,"he said.
"They feel this will give them a boost in their marketability after graduation," he said.
He said students were looking more for programs in professional schools such as schools of business and journalism.

"To be a great University we must ... give a priority, whether it is politically
fasionable or not, to ensuring that KU is a university for all the people of Kansas and all the people of the world. Our goal at the faculty level will be to increase the number of minority faculty, from 124 to 200 by the year 2000. By minority faculty, I mean African American, Hispanic, Native American and Asian American faculty."

students help hurricane victims
Relief effort for Hondurans starting to lose momentum
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
Participants in a campuswide relief effort for hurricane victims already have sent a few shipments to Honduras and Nicaragua through charity organizations and activists they know. Sandra Bastidas, Tegucigalpa,
Honduras sophomore,
sent relief supplies to her
mother.
Bastidas' family moved to Honduras seven years ago from Colombia. Since Hurricane Mitch struck the coast of Honduras two weeks ago, Bastidas has communicated with her father by e-mail, receiving updates of the hurricane's devastating effects.
"The lady that works in our house has lost 11 rela-

rion that affected her when she was so far away from it.
She said it was difficult to deal with a situations at 2:30 p.m. yesterday in the ECM lobby. Holcombe said the center already had sent a similar-sized load to relief agencies.
"I got to the point that I would sit in class and nothing would sink in," she said. "It's so hard to imagine that all these places I went to are no longer there."
Bastidas informed members of the International Association of Students in Business and Economics members about the movement and helped package relief supplies for shipment. She said the volunteer work had been therapeutic for her.
"Now that I'm actually doing something it makes me feel better," she said.
Judging by the success of the University's relief efforts, helping hurricane victims is making a lot of people feel better.
The Rev. Thad Holcombe, campus pastor at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave., the drop-off site for the drive's donations, said talking to donors had been similar to grief counseling.
"People feel so powerless, and they feel so deeply for what's happening." he said. "It's good that they can do something."
Holcombe said the effort, organized by Latin American Solidarity, had raised about $450 in monetary contributions. He said donations of clothing; food and other supplies had been steady. There was a waist-high pile, about eight feet across, of donations at 2:30 p.m. yesterday in the ECM lobby. Holcombe said the center already had sent a similar-sized load to relief agencies.

Matthew Kopep, Fayetteville, Ark., graduate student, worked at the Latin American Solidarity table in the Kansas Union yesterday, giving information about the disaster and collecting donations of money and supplies. Latin American Solidarity will run the table again tomorrow in the fourth floor lobby of the Union. He said that the relief effort was still going well but that donations had slowed slightly since last week.
"Hopefully we can keep interest going," he said. "But I think once it becomes less important in the news, it will be less on people's minds."
K-State challenges University to recycle
By Liz Wristen Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas will be participating in a recycling challenge this week with Kansas State University.
Students are being asked to collect aluminum cans. Students may deposit the containers inside the University recycling truck between 2 and 4 p.m. Saturday at Westbrooke and 15th streets.
Students also can recycle their empty cans in the blue recycling bins located in many campus buildings. Victoria Silva, resource conservation manager, said the aluminum collected on campus also would count toward the competition

dent, said he received a letter from the Kansas State student senate asking if KU students would participate.
"Anytime I receive a challenge from another school, I'm always eager to take it on behalf of the student body," Yoder said. "One neat
thing with this is that it's different from something like athletics, which we usually challenge K-State in."
The recycling pickup was coordinated by Silva, who said she thought the challenge was timely because "America Recycles Day" is Saturday.
"I think it's important that we draw some attention for the need to beautify the campus," Silva said. "This is a good opportunity for students to help take care of the campus themselves by doing their part."
Andy Macklin, student body vice president at Kansas State, said he liked the idea of having a competition that would benefit the environment.

Campus groups to collect trash in cleanup project
By Liz Wristen Kansan staff writer
Student volunteers will pick up campus litter this Saturday, and Victoria Silva — environmental specialist for the department of environment, health and safety — hopes volunteers will continue to clean up throughout the school year.
A campus cleanup — sponsored by the department of environment, health and safety — is in conjunction with the second annual America Recycles Day.
Silva said nine organizations on campus had volunteered to help with the cleanup, called "Adopt A Hill."
She said she would ask the groups who volunteered for the cleanup to continue to help each month throughout the year.
The organizations that have volunteered are the Environmental Law Society, Kappa Kappa Psi, Greek Environmental Board, Black Student Union, KU Environs, Environmental Studies Student Association, Association of University Residence Halls, All Scholarship Hall Council and Javhawker Towers.
Silva said she hoped that seven to eight more organizations would volunteer to help with the cleanup.
The University has been divided into 21 sections that Silva said needed the most attention. Volunteers will be collecting trash and recyclables in the sections they are assigned.
Silva said she tried to gather volunteers last year to participate in a campus cleanup but that few organizations responded.
"This is really the first year
that KU has been involved with a campuswide cleanup," Silva said. "I think it's definitely something that will last."
Melissa Coleman, chairman of the Student Environmental Advisory Board, said she was working with Silva to arrange the cleanup.
"By overseeing the project, we are trying to make sure that it runs smoothly and that it's a good experience for everyone involved," Coleman said.
Silva said Facilities Operations would donate trash bags to the cleanup and that the University would supply trucks to pick up trash and recyclables at the individual cleanup sections on campus.
Matt Todd, co-chairman for the Greek Environmental Board, said he hoped the cleanup would attract a lot of volunteers.
"We are hoping to get as many people involved as possible." Todd said. "This is a worthwhile cause, and we hope that we can get members of the Greek community, as well as University students, to become a part of this."
Silva said this year's theme, "If you're not buying recycled, you're not really recycling," would be promoted with free water bottles that will be given away to everyone who volunteers in the cleanup. The water bottles are made of 100 percent recycled materials.
The Student Environmental Advisory Board will meet at 5 p.m. tomorrow in the Oread Room at the Kansas Union to decide the locations of the cleanup for each volunteer group.
For more information, contact Victoria Silva at 864-2855.

THE GOVERNOR HAS

Editorial
Jesse Ventura injects much-needed charisma, frankness into politics
In an election with upsets and surprises, no upset was greater than that of Jesse Ventura. A former professional wrestler and Navy SEAL, Ventura won the hotly contested Minnesota gubernatorial race.
In doing so, he defeated a popular moderate Republican, Norm Coleman, and a Democrat, Skip Humphrey, who possesses a name synonymous with Minnesota politics. This upset, although widely derided by political heavyweights, carries a positive message that cannot be denied.
Rather than just being a fluke win by a flamboyant personality, Ventura's win was a triumph for third-party politics. Running on the Reform Party ticket, the party of H. Ross Perot, this race was the culmination of years of growing popular support for third parties.
Recently, voters had complained about the lack of choices in politics, and here came Jesse (formerly) "The
Former WWF superstar won the governor's race in Minnesota.
Body" Ventura as the white knight to save the common man. Ventura proved that voting for a third-party candidate was not a waste of a vote. He refused to settle for a respectable showing; he ran to win.
In winning the governorship, Ventura did something that is unheard of: He won with the support of young people. While "legitimate" candidates tried in earnest to Rock the Vote, all Ventura needed to do was run.
He managed to win by attracting a large number of the electorate that is predictably apathetic to the tedium of professional politics. Any publicity is good publicity, and that is what Jesse Ventura gives politics. Maybe he's not
the most serious-minded legislator,
but for now, he is the most popular.
And who can blame those who voted for Ventura? It is hard to get excited about Norm Coleman or Skip Humphrey, or even Bill Graves and Tom Sawyer. Today, politics is devoid of real charisma. The game of politics encompasses trying not to alienate anyone.
In Ventura, voters got a candidate who was unafraid to anger voters, unafraid to chase a single dream. He told the voters what he honestly thought, and that was the deciding factor. So what if he used to wear tights and body slam people? Ventura infused much needed excitement into an off-year election. Mark Ruud, Marshall, Minn., junior, said he voted for Ventura.
"He's a great representative of Minnesota," he said. "A big, gruff guy, he could be the Vikings mascot."
Or the governor of Minnesota.

Feedback
The University should reassess ticket prices
Let me preface this critique of the athletic department by saying first that I am a loyal and dedicated Jayhawk fan. As evidence, I drove 13 hours non-stop to Birmingham, Alabama in Mach 1997 only to watch our beloved Jayhawks fall to Arizona in the Sweet 16.
My letter pertains to a much more antiseptic aspect of KU athletics, ticket pricing. More specifically, I will focus on student ticket prices. Having attended several football games this season, I noticed thousands of empty
seats. By contrast, Allen Field House rarely wants for more fans and usually sells out.
Examining the relative prices of basketball and football student tickets, however, an unassuming Jayhawk freshman might think football is the program routinely in the Top 10. Student tickets for football cost $10, while basketball tickets are $3.
The question is why are football tickets priced 333 percent higher than student basketball tickets when the football team struggles to reach .500 and the basketball team is a perennial national championship contender?
four quarters instead of two halves or because they last three hours instead of two? Economists would also be concerned with price elasticities, but the KU ticket office has yet to comprehend such simple economic concepts such as supply and demand. The bottom line here is that the KU ticket office would do well to consider the relative quality of the products it is selling when determining ticket pricing schemes.
Do students pay more for football tickets because football games have

Perspective
Ventura's election sends message to politicians
For those who don't know by now, there was an election last week. To the majority of people who didn't vote, you didn't miss much. Bill Graves was
re-elected, as were most of the incumbents.
PETER RITCHIE
The only mildly interesting race was for our local congressional district. Dennis Moore edged out Vince Snowbarger in what was a very close race from the start. Although a lot of people believed Snowbarger would pull it out, nobody was shocked by the Moore victory. And on, and on, and on...

Today's column, however, isn't about the achingly dull world of Kansas politics. Instead, we will look at the "OH MY GOD! I CAN'T BELIEVE IT." jaw-on-the-ground world of Minnesota politics. What does the election of Jesse Ventura (no relation to Ace Ventura because Ace is fictional and Jesse is oh-so-real) as the next governor of Minnesota mean to us? Probably nothing, maybe everything.
Does this mean that soon all states will be electing pro wrestlers for governor? Will "Stone Cold" Steve Austin be running against Carla Stovall and Kathleen Sebelius in 2002? That's very unlikely, although I would pay to attend the debates.
As the Reform Party candidate, Jesse Ventura (former Navy SEAL) was able to defeat Democrat Hubert Humphrey III (grandson of THE Hubert Humphrey) and Republican Norm Coleman — former attorney general.
Despite all the jokes, there are a few important lessons to be learned from Jesse Ventura's (former mayor) election. First, people are getting fed up with the two-party system.
This is especially true because both parties are so similar. The Democratic and Republican parties are both non-ideological centrist parties. Look at the Kansas governor's race.
I would certainly expect a man named Jesse "the Body" Ventura (former pro wrestler) to beat a couple guys with names like Norm and Hubert. But there is more to the story than just the names. Jesse Ventura (killed off early in "Predator") was way behind in the polls until Hubert Humphrey got the bright idea to demand that he be allowed in the televised debates.
How different are Bill Graves and Tom Sawyer? Sawyer wanted to spend slightly more on education and Graves slightly more on economic development, otherwise they were interchangeable.
Humphrey. Now many people in the state of Minnesota are saying "I voted for him, but I didn't think he would really win."
This was done in hopes of undercutting the support of Norm Coleman. The plan backfired. Jesse Ventura (radio talk show host) actually answered the questions put to him and started to take voters from
The second point people might take from the election of Jesse Ventura (governor-elect of Minnesota) is that we do live in a democracy. Despite all the pollsters, pundits and sound bites, Minnesota's future governor was elected because people liked what they heard in the debate and reacted to it.
St. Paul Pioneer Press columnist Joe Soucheray said, "What they heard was a fellow who did not presume to tell them that they were merely the wards of those who knew better." Although a lot of people around the Lawrence area would probably not be fond of his libertarian (smaller government, individual tolerance) views, we can take comfort in the fact that some Americans, somewhere, can elect whomever they well please to be their governor.
Now who's ready to hear the "Stone Cold" highway development plan?

Combined with the "intrusion" of smart cards, and the Athletics Department using Nike products exclusively, it seemed like the 1997-98 academic year was full of collegiate sellouts. But I did a little footwork on this subject and this is what I found out: Of all major contracts and general business agreements that the University holds, it is possible that some deals could be a total loss for the companies and a total gain for the University.
For instance, Coke gave more than $7 million, bought all those new bottle machines, promoted the soda and quietly accepted all the criticism from the KU community. Now, what would happen if no one bought Coke? Watkins Heath Center, along with the general medical community, advocates that people cut back on soda and drink water instead.
given no vote in the matter, much of the KU community was in an uproar. Delta Force even marched in this year's homecoming parade with a clever display of Coca-Cola dissatisfaction.
Why couldn't students just quit drinking the soda? That would leave Coca-Cola with quantitative losses of $7 million and the qualitative loss of face among KU students.
Really, it is possible that Coke has nothing to gain.
If Coca-Cola doesn't sell, then the company that produces the new KUID has the only real quantitative gain from the University. It actually gets money for the sale of our KUIDs, plus it gets the chance to say the University uses its cards when selling to other institutions. With the bus pass fiasco, the company may be reluctant to claim the University at all, leaving the company with gains for the price of the goods.
but the loss of reputation and a clean record.
In fact, of the major business agreements the University holds, I dare say very few could result in capital gain for the evil corporate world. One example: the Lawrence Bus Company. Unless KU students forget that their school is built on a big hill and start jogging back and forth, the bus service at the University is going to stay. Definite gains for the Lawrence Bus Company's business practices with KU on Wheels is a long standing contract with little chance of changing. Definite losses: few, if any, other than people getting sick in the Saferide cars.
Commerce Bank has very few gains that can be counted. An article in the Kansan not long ago said that Commerce had not seen any major increases in student checking accounts long after the new KUIDs were brought into the picture.
Net gains for Commerce: some accounts that are not immediately (but hopefully in the future will be) profitable and its name on the back of your Smart Card. Net losses: the cost of adding a small bank in the Union and paying people to stand behind that counter, the image of being the ones who moved the art gallery to the old TV room, and buying the ATMs.
When people preach against the selling of the University, they assume that the KU academic community is going to be a simple pawn to the evil capitalistic whims of commerce. I would contend that this is not the case. If the KU community wanted, Commerce Bank, Nike and Coca-Cola could stand to make no money, take only losses and risk their reputation in the business community. They would be pawns to us.
Student accounts are not generally sought out among banks anyway because they handle relatively small amounts of cash. Commerce spent a lot of money to renovate a corner of the Kansas Union to make a small banking service, plus employ KU students to work the windows. Commerce also financed the ATMs in the Unions and Wescoe.
My advice, then, is this: If you do not like the deeds that the University makes, then do not support them. Just run those capitalists dry. Otherwise, enjoy the money that the University sucked out of the hands of the American capitalists. I'm enjoying the benefits. You should too.

Intersection to be examined
By Seth Jones
Kansas staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Students who live on Daisy Hill know how dangerous the intersection of 15th Street and Engel Road can be.
Danger Zone
Tonight, Student Senate committees will hear a resolution to improve the intersection that is just north of where many students live.
Kvie Ramsey/KANSAN
Twenty-nine accidents have occurred at the 15th Street and Engel Road intersection between Jan. 1, 1994 and May 14, 1997.
15th St.
Tompkin Hall
Engel Road
Lewis Hall
Tom Moore, campus director of the student legislative awareness board, said that 29 accidents were reported from Jan. 1, 1994 to May 14, 1997, making it the most dangerous intersection on campus.
Aravind Muthukrishnan, Nunemaker senator, has been meeting with people to discuss the problem.
"I've talked to the Chancellor, I've met with people down at City Hall and people in Senate," he said. "So far the only consensus is that there really is a tough problem at that intersection, and it won't have an easy solution."
David Woosley, city transportation traffic engineer, the intersection is under the jurisdiction of the University of Kansas and the city of Lawrence.
"Everything is preliminary right now," he said. "City support and school support will determine what is done at the intersection, if anything."
In the meantime, students crossing the intersection will have to be careful of traffic.
Shelby Hancock, Salina freshman, has lived at Hashinger Hall for a year and a half and would like to see something done at the intersection.
"There definitely needs to be a four-way stop there," she said. "The intersection is horrible. I've heard that a traffic light would back up traffic too much, but something needs to be done."
J. D. Jenkins, Shawnee sophmore, has lived at Templin Hall for two years had has to contend with with the busy intersection.
"I just want the University to recognize that it is a dangerous intersection," he said. "Cars come over the hill pretty fast, and in the
mornings it takes a long time just to cross because it's so busy. It's too dangerous to cross when it's dark out."
Jenkins is concerned with the safety of students who walk to class each day.
"It's like they've been dragging their feet on getting something done there." he said "I just want to see something done before someone gets hurt."
Roughly 200 students cross the intersection daily. Moore said.
"The traffic has been a problem there for years," he said. "I imagine it will be six to eight months before they decide what can be done."

City Commission approves cable plan for Internet access
Cable customers in Lawrence will be able to watch more than 70 channels and wander the Internet at high speeds in August.
The World Company, owners of Sunflower Cablevision and Datavision, will be required to upgrade its system if the Lawrence City Commission approves a new cable television ordinance.
The commission received a draft of the ordinance last night and made a unanimous motion to place the ordinance on next week's agenda.
Rod Bremby, assistant city manager, said the existing agreement with the World Company, which expires in April, was fifteen years old. He said upgrades were required in the agreement in order to keep Sunflower viable in the cable television market.
The upgrade includes adding strands of fiber to more than 400 miles of cable throughout the Lawrence area that will allow for more channels on Sunflower Cablevision and high speed Internet access through Sunflower Datavision.
City officials were concerned Sunflower Datavision Internet service accounts would reduce the bandwidth on cable lines and produce
poorer quality cable television.
The new fifteen-year agreement would require the World Company to upgrade its cable lines by the end of 2001.
Dan McGough, manager for the World Company, said that the upgrades would exceed the standards set in the agreement and that the upgrades would be in place by August.
"We've compressed a two-year upgrade to 10 months," McGough said. "When we're done with this cable system upgrade in August, it will have the capacities and capabilities par excellence to any cable TV company in the nation."
Bremby said that competitors from direct satellite broadcasting were eating into the cable television market and that the upgrade would allow Sunflower Cablevision to continue to provide excellent service.
The upgrades would allow Sunflower Cablevision customers to subscribe to more packages of premium channels.
"It's still one of the premiere franchise cable companies in the nation."Bremby said.
McGough said Sunflower Cablevision rates would not be affected by the system upgrades. The World Company has received between $8 and $9 million in private investments for upgrades, McGough said.

Sniper fatally shot at downtown crime scene after killing St. Joseph officer
The Associated Press
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — A gunman opened fire near a busy intersection of old downtown last night, killing a police officer and wounding at least three others before authorities fatally shot him.
Witnesses told police the man began firing as he walked up the street, shooting randomly at people until he reached the Calvary Baptist Church. Lt. Jim Connors said.
The first officer to respond to the scene was shot as he stepped out of his patrol car, authorities said.
The officer was pronounced dead soon after he arrived at Heartland Regional Medical Center, hospital representative Kelly Stuck said. One bystander was in stable condition and another was in surgery Tuesday night, Stuck said. Fire Captain Ed Wildberger said a firefighter also was shot but his wounds were not considered serious.
Their names were not being released pending the notification of relatives.
The man was shot and killed by police at the
scene after he continued firing at them. Connors said. Police had not determined his identity.
Michael Boone, a grocery store night manager, said he saw the gunman walking toward his store.
"We just heard all kinds of gunfire and people were running inside the store for cover." Boone said. "We tried to move them all into the back where there could be safe, but people we're really scared.
"There were a lot of bodies lying in the street." he said.
When police pulled up across the street, "he turned and started shaking his rifle, and he was velling some antics, like 'na na,'" she said.
Connie Cox, 38, heard the gunfire from her home behind the church. When she looked out her door, she said, she saw a man in camouflage pants standing on a lower roof of the church and waving what looked like a rifle.
was yelling some antics, like na ha, she said. She said he fired at the officers, jumped off the roof and ran behind a tree on the church property. When he stepped out, he was shot by the officers, she said.

Circles for faculty focus discussion on instructing issues
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
The Center for Teaching Excellence is offering eight faculty teaching circles this fall to improve classroom environment.
The concept of the teaching circle is to focus on a specific instructional issue, said Judy Eddy, program assistant at the Center for Teaching Excellence.
The series of circles began last spring with ten circles for instructors. Some of the circles this fall are carryovers from last semester.
The groups, which usually consist of about 10 instructors, first met toward the end of October and are now scheduled to meet each month for the remainder of the academic year.
Paul Friedman, associate professor of Communication Studies, leads a circle that addresses the reasons why students skip classes. He said the circles encouraged instructors to share ideas with one another.
"I think they're a wonderful opportunity for teachers who are concerned, curious and committed about teaching to get together and share ideas," Friedman said.
Eddy said the circles were small groups of instructors who met to improve a particular area of the teaching environment. They are fluid groups because the instructors can participate when they have enough time, but attendance at each session isn't mandatory, she said.
"The ones that met last year came up with good recommendations," Eddy said. One circle that met last semester but did not continue into this semester focused on improving the situation at the University of Kansas for new faculty, Eddy said.
She said the circle had made suggestions to the Center for Teaching Excellence, and the Center had evaluated the ideas. One improvement already implemented was an orientation session for new faculty that the Center held this August.

Instructional Development and Support, said there were about 10 instructors at the first meeting this semester of a circle designed to assist faculty in integrating technology into their classrooms. The circle is geared in a way to let people present projects and share their experiences with new technology, both good and bad.
"It's really addressing the needs of the people who come together," Nishikawa said.
Nishikawa leads that circle, and she said the smaller groups allowed instructors to interact more.
"The circle is a more conducive place for that kind of stuff," Nishikawa said.
November focus: Plight of homeless
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Outreach center to educate students
They are seen sleeping under bridges and in alleys, wrapped in tattered clothes. Some will beg for handouts, but others will suffer quietly.
many college students may not identify with being homeless, but the KU Center for Community Outreach has devoted November to educate students about hunger and homelessness in Lawrence and in the United States.
"I think the reason why we have to have an awareness month is because not many know the seriousness of the situation," said Corey Snyder, Topkea sophomore and co-coordinator of Concerned, Aware and Active Students. "The government needs to take action."
On Nov. 17, the organization will sponsor a hunger banquet, illustrating the distribution of the world's food through its participants. Participants will receive identities showing where they stand in the world.
A. SALVATORE
in the banquet will receive identities as the poorest class in third world countries. These people will eat rice and sit on the floor.
About 80 percent of the participants will be members of slightly less poor countries. They will eat rice and beans and sit on crates, said Chris Hess, Wichita junior and codirector of Center for Community Outreach.
Sixty percent of participants

He said that only 10 percent of participants would be given identities representing the richest portion of the world. These participants would eat a full meal at the banquet and sit at tables.
"I think it's important for people to realize hunger goes on in your own backyard," Hess said. Snyder said that the present governmental system was flawed.
"You hear about how the economy is doing great and everything, but people still go hungry." Snyder said.
The Center for Community Outreach also sponsored Thursday's homeless presentation. The presentation consisted of a slide show, a panel discussion of Lawrence homeless citizens and a speech given by Michael Stoops, who gave a
presentation last Thursday at the University about homelessness and hunger.
Chris Hockley, Overland Park park junior and volunteer coordinator for Jubilee Cafe, said about 75 to 100 people attended.
"The panel was very educational," Hockley said. "It probably won't effect a lot of people but if one or two become active, it's a step in the right direction."
This past weekend, the organization also sponsored Urban Plunge, a program that enabled student volunteers to experience life as a homeless person for two days.
Student Senate allotted $600, which financed Thursday's presentation and the facilitation of of Urban Plunge, Snyder said.
Food drive competition begins on campus

together," Moreira said.
On Monday, the KU Ad Club began its first canned food drive, which will benefit the Salvation Army.
But Juliana Moreira, committee head and fund raising officer for Ad Club, said this food drive had an interesting feature.
She said students and faculty members of the journalism school would be competing to donate the most cans.
If the students win the food drive competition, they would receive a pizza party that would be paid for by Jimmy Gentry, dean of the journalism school, she said.
Gentry said the cost of the prize for the winner was not a concern.
"It's a way to get students and faculty
"It's good to give an incentive, and it will be worth whatever that costs," Gentry said.
If students lose, Eric Reyhle, membership officer for Ad Club, said he would bleach his hair.
"Whatever it takes to get good turnout for the canned food drive," Reyleh said.

Moreira said the canned food drive was
Ad Club has not set a goal as to the amount of cans they want to collect, but it is trying to enlist help from local stores.
Members of Ad Club have been trying to find a store that will match the number of cans that students and faculty donate.
So far, Moreira said, Ad Club has not yet found a store that would agree to do so.
The food drive will continue until Nov. 20.

High winds rip through Missouri
Residents complain of extensive damage from storm system
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Dale Sumpter pointed his cane to where his bedroom wall used to be, then stopped as the sound of broken glass cracked beneath his feet.
"I've lived in Missouri for seventy-two years, and I've never been in anything like this, or seen anything like this," Sumpter, said yesterday just hours after heavy winds ripped through the southeast part of the city, destroying more than 20 homes and damaging about 100 others.
Wearing two different shoes
scrounged from what was left of
his home, Sumpter, 72, was thankful both he and his wife Dorothy survived.
"The good Lord was with us," said Sumpter, who had lived in the home for two years. "He definitely was."
Force winds up to 50 mph swept through the area early Monday, and warning sirens sounded at about 2 a.m. yesterday. The destruction was concentrated in the Southridge subdivision near Highway 63 but no serious injuries were reported and there were no fatalities.
Late yesterday, Gov. Mel Carnahan, declared a state of emergency for Boone County, the city of Columbia and other areas affected by the storms.
Chris Sifford, Carnahan's representative, said it was too early to tell if the state would seek federal
assistance.
residents of the subdivision and many students at the University of Missouri-Columbia walked down streets as school textbooks, posters and other college-life debris littered the area.
Kerri Cole, a marketing sophomore at the university, narrowly escaped injury along with two housemates when a neighbor's shed hit the outside of her bedroom wall.
"There was this loud noise like an engine," she said. "My wall and bed started shaking like it was a horror movie. It seems like an angel was watching over us."
Officials said there was no damage on the University of Missouri campus.
At a news conference at the New Haven Elementary School a mile northeast of the damaged area,
city officials Tuesday were still trying to assess the damage as city crews tried to restore power and water service.
State emergency officials were on the scene.
"The real good news is that there were no fatalities," said Ray Beck, Columbia City Manager. "Our interest is to get everything back to normal as quickly as possible."
About 100 of the 500 homes in the Southridge subdivision were damaged and 20 were completely destroyed, officials said. Surrounding counties reported only a few downed trees and power lines.
Southridge residents began returning to their homes at about 9 a.m. yesterday.
Forecasters said the wind accompanied a storm system that swept across Kansas and Missouri late Monday and early yesterday.
Netanyahu to ratify Mideast peace accord
The Associated Press
TEL AVIV, Israel — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced yesterday he would convene his Cabinet to ratify the Mideast peace accord signed in Washington last month, indicating he is now satisfied with Palestinian security assurances.
Netanyahu has postponed the Cabinet debate three times, saying he needed more clarifications from the Palestinians about their campaign against Islamic militants.
Last Friday, the ministers had just begun their second day of debate when the militant Islamic Jihad group carried out a suicide-bombing in Jerusalem's market, killing the two bombers and
wounding 21 Israelis.
In response, Netanyahu broke off the Cabinet meeting and said he would not reconvene the ministers until the Palestinian Authority outlined how it would prevent attacks against Israelis.
Yesterday he said new guarantees led him to believe that Yasser Arafat's Palestinian Authority would take practical steps against Islamic militants.
The Cabinet was scheduled to meet in Jerusalem today.
Both the United States and the Palestinians welcomed the announcement.
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright had urged Netanyahu to stick to the original 12-week timetable of the accord under which
israel is to withdraw from 13 perc
cent of the West Bank by the end of
January, in exchange for a Palestinian anti-terror campaign.
If the Cabinet ratifies the agreement, Israel might still be able to meet its first commitment on Nov. 16, an initial troop pullback from
2 percent of the West Bank.
While agreeing to place the accord before his Cabinet,
Netanyahu: trusts
PLA to take action
against militants.
Netanyahu suggested he would stop the troop withdrawal if the Palestinians did not meet an Israeli demand concerning the procedure for revoking clauses of the PLO founding charter.
The Wye agreement, signed in Washington on Oct. 23, said the Palestine National Council and other Palestinian organizations will meet in mid-December to "reaffirm" a January letter by Abbafat to President Clinton that lists the PLO charter clauses considered annulled.
Israel insists the agreement requires the PNC to take a formal vote, while the Palestinians say only approval of the letter by acclamation is required.
Clinton faces more probes for election campaign finance
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—His legal problems surging anew, President Clinton has been questioned by Justice Department investigators looking into whether his 1996 re-election campaign got an illegal boost from Democratic Party issue
CLEONIS BLANKER
The president was questioned Monday as part of a preliminary, 9-day investigation into the possible violation of federal campaign finance laws. He was interviewed for
90 minutes in the White House study by two FBI agents and two Justice Department lawyers. His personal attorneys, David Kendall and Nicole Seligman, also were present.
Clinton was questioned in campaign finance case.
Vice President Al Gore is scheduled to be interviewed by Justice lawyers and the FBI later this week on the same topic, according to a lawyer familiar with the case, who requested anonymity.
Clinton and Gore deny any
wrongdoing
The Washington Post quoted unidentified sources familiar with Clinton's testimony as saying the president essentially reiterated his earlier defense that the ads were legal but that in any case prosecutors must show an intent to break the law.
If lawyers advised him that the ads were legal, according to Clinton's reasoning, there could be no criminal intent, the newspaper said.
Clinton was not put under oath, and the session was not videotaped, officials said. However, it is a felony to make false statements to federal investigators, whether sworn or not.
The 90-day inquiry will determine whether an independent counsel should be appointed to conduct a full investigation. Attorney General Janet Reno has until Dec. 7 to decide whether to ask a special three-judge panel to name a special prosecutor.
The campaign inquiry focuses on whether Clinton and the White House coordinated with the Democratic Party to assist his re-election through the issue advocacy ads the party was running in 1995 and 1996. If so, that could have violated the federal spending limits to which Clinton agreed when he accepted taxpayer financing of his campaign.
States drive toward cross-country highway tolling
The Associated Press
The end of the free ride may be just past the horizon, though.
WASHINGTON — The marvel of the interstate highway system is not just that it runs through all 50 states, but that most of it is free. A driver can angle from Key West, Fla., up to Bellingham, Wash., and easily avoid any tollgates.
A provision in the nation's new $203 billion transportation spending law lets up to three states add tolls on their interstates. Advocates say the test program is the only way for some cash-strapped states to maintain their overburdened roads. They also believe a more widespread use of tolls may
help reduce future highway congestion.
But truckers and other heavy road-users say interstate tolls amount to double taxation. It is gas taxes, they note, that paid for President Eisenhower's grand vision of a cost-free, coast-to-coast, concrete grid speeding commerce.
They plan to fight any request for tolls. They will make Arkansas, whose highway commission has already voted to apply for a toll permit, "ground zero" in their campaign.
Pennsylvania Mo. Tom Ridge has also proposed tolls for Interstate 80, a major east-west artery, and Florida officials have mentioned tolls as a way to relieve congestion on Interstate 4 outside Orlando.
"We want to kill this in Arkansas and stop it from spreading to other states," said Walter B. McCormick Jr., president of the American Trucking Associations. Joining the group are the Arkansas Motor Carriers, the American Highway Users Alliance, Americans for Tax Reform and the National Association of Truck Stop Operators.
One of the new law's supporters, the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association, said tolls were a rational way to finance road construction and repairs.
"They are popular because the person who uses the road pays for it right then
and there," said Neil Schuster, the group's executive director. "This is just a recognition that tolls are another way to build, maintain and finance our roads."
The 45,000-mile interstate system was begun in 1956 and has been fueled to completion with gas-tax revenues. The state tax varies, but the federal portion is 18.4 cents per gallon.
States receiving interstate highway funds have had to agree to keep the roads they build toll-free. Some pre-existing toll roads, including the New Jersey Turnpike, were incorporated into the federal system in the belief they would eventually become free, but that has not happened.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON - The Pentagon stepped up the movement of warships to the Persian Gulf yesterday and the Clinton administration swept aside the idea of negotiations with Iraq about United Nations weapons inspections.
Defense Secretary William Cohen warned that if Saddam Hussein continues to refuse the U.N. inspections, he risks strikes that would cause a significant degradation of his military strength.
U.S. refuses to negotiate inspections with Iraq
President Clinton met for 90 minutes with his top national security advisers, reviewing military and diplomatic options. He also worked the phones, conferring with leaders in Britain and Israel.
State Department representative James P. Rubin said
there were limits to diplomacy. "What is not needed, and there is no plan for it, is negotiations with Saddam Hussein. We have no doubt many governments are conveying that message," Rubin said.
"This cannot go on indefinitely," he said. "Saddam Hussein is not an abstract threat." With inspections suspended, "he will be able to reconstitute his weapons in a matter of months, not years."
The latest standoff began after Iraq announced Oct. 31 it was halting cooperation with the U.N. Special Commission, which is responsible for overseeing the destruction of Iraq's chemical and biological weapons and long-range missiles.
Iraq must get rid of its weapons of mass destruction before the Security Council will lift the sanctions that
were imposed on its sale of oil following the Gulf War.
Clinton called British Prime Minister Tony Blair and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss the situation in Iraq, White House spokesman Joe Lockhart said.
Cohen, speaking at a Pentagon photo session with Singapore's defense minister, Tony Tan, said that he had decided to hasten the movement of the USS Enterprise aircraft carrier and a group of Marine warships into the region in case the United States chooses military action.
At present, there are 23,500 U.S. troops, 23 ships and 173 aircraft in the Gulf region. Eight of the ships are loaded with long-range Tomahawk cruise missiles, believed to be a top choice for hitting potential Iraqi targets, should a strike be ordered.

Kosovo conflict tugs on KU heartstrings
stories by pallavi agarwal graphics by jason benavides
It's been 13 years, but Marc Greenberg remembers Kosovo's fields, the tough life of agriculture and mining and the simmering tensions between the Albanian Muslims and the Serbians. Those tensions exploded into a bloody civil war this February.
Greenberg, associate professor of Slavic languages and literatures, was in the capital city of Pristina for a language course.
At the time, Kosovo was one of two autonomous provinces in Serbia, a republic of the former Yugoslavia. A backwater European province with a rare 90-percent Muslim population, Kosovo was ignored by most of the world but was frighteningly real to those who were there.
"I'm not surprised by what's happening today in Kosovo," Greenberg said. "Even in 1985, I was witness to provocations in Kosovo. There was tension in the air."
Greenberg echoes what almost has become a trite comment among many University Balkan experts and Balkan students in Lawrence.
Students and faculty agree that the world responded too slowly to the Balkan crisis. "The West only looks for short-term solutions," said Dhurata Ikonemi, Tirana, Albania, graduate student.
The Balkan crisis began with the breakup of the former Yugoslavia in 1991, as ethnic conflicts stretched into Bosnia-Herzegovina, Croatia and now Kosovo—a province of Serbia.
The two sides battling it in Kosovo are the Kosovo Albanians, who form the 90-percent majority in the province, and the Serbian government of Slobodan Milosevic.
As part of the former Yugoslavia, Kosovo had been an autonomous Serbian province since 1974, said Bill March, assistant professor of Slavic languages and literatures.
Angry at the loss of their sovereignty, the Kosovo Albanians mobilized to demand an independent status within the new Yugoslavia, which formed after the
Things began to change in 1897, following the rise of Milosevic, who decreed the end of Kosovo's self-governing status in 1898, according to The Chicago Tribune.
"We are killing ourselves for a stupid thing. What is the point of going back to history, of wanting to control someone?"

breakup of Communist Yugoslavia in 1991, the newspaper reported.
After conflicting reports about which side provoked a Feb.26,1998,Serbian crackdown on the KLA,a civil war started. More than 100 people have been reported dead and almost 300,000 rendered homeless by the war,the BBC said.
The sparring between the two groups led to a slowly evolving separatist movement. The groups' antecedents of civil disobedience and diplomacy under the stewardship of Ibrahim Rugova transformed into a more menacing form under the guise of a guerrilla force called the Kosovo Liberation Army, according to the BBC World Service.
Since then, the United Nations and NATO have intervened in the form of imposing cease-fires, setting up a monitoring force in Kosovo and authorizing punitive airstrikes against Serbia to stop its assault against the Kosovo Albanians.

ing ethnic war like the one in Northern Ireland, "Marseus said. "Kosovo is a province of Serbia, not an independent country."
For others like Ikonomi, humanitarian concerns of possible bloody Serbian reprisals against the Kosovo Albanians were the chief motivating factors despite the poor condition of the Kosovo Albanian refugees.

ans when the winter arrives?" she said. "Right now, most of them are in the mountains where they are eating berries or have fled to Albania or other neighboring countries."
The urgency behind the Kosovo problem lies not only in ending the nightmare but in a possible conflict outflow to other parts of Europe. Greenbergs said.
The ethnic problem has reverberations in Macedonia, a country to the south of Kosovo. Macedonia is 30 percent Albanian Muslim, prone to any separatist movement in Kosovo, Greenberg said.
"Bulgaria and Greece have interests in Macedonia," he said. "If there is a breakup in Macedonia, these countries will be involved, too. And wherever Greece is involved, Turkey is bound to be involved." One country that has had to bear the brunt of the Kosovo civil war is Albania, Kosovo's neighbor to the southwest and closest in ethnic affinity to the Albanian Kosovars.
Ikonomi, at the University of Kansas for her first semester in America, is miles from home but finds her heartstrings stretched for friends in Kosovo and family in Albania.
Albania is the poorest country in Europe, riddled by political instability and economic hardships, Ikonomi said.
"Albania is going through crisis after crisis," she said. "We do not have shelter for these people, and the government has to pay more attention to them."
Albanians in Albania proper are closest in ethnic connection to the Kosovo Albanians. Out of solidarity for people with whom they share blood connections, the country recognized the sovereignty of Kosovo as an independent country in 1991, according to The Chicago Tribune.
But that is a position the rest of the international community holds as untenable. March said,.
"It is not a simple cultural problem, I admit," he said. "They should be granted political autonomy to the extent that they don't have to be under the Serbs."
But people such as March did not see any peace efforts progressing with Milosevic in office.
"How can people feel safe when Milosevic is in power?" March said. "There can be no solution under Milosevic. He has to be put out of the way."
Ikonomi agreed Milosevic's departure would help a lot but still maintained that Kosovo could not exist within Yugoslavia. She warned that Albanians from over Europe would be prepared to join the KLA if any peace attempts were not made soon.
Given a chance, though, ikonomi said she would get rid of all hard-line politicians in the Balkans and start again with democratic reformists.
Ikoniom wished the Balkan mentality of patriarchy and revenge, which she holds to be a contributing factor for the self-destruction, could be transformed by a greater spirit of democracy that one finds in Western Europe.
"We are killing ourselves for a stupid thing," she said. "Let people speak their language, live their life. What is the point of going back to history, of wanting to control someone?"
The 16-member NATO has authorized what it called an activation order for possible punitive bombings against Serbia. But Serbian president Milosevic can escape airstrikes if he compiles with these conditions.

History of Balkan conflict stretches through centuries
According to articles in The New York Times, it was in Kosovo that the Serbian Slavic Orthodox Christian empire was ousted by the invading Turks. In a decisive battle in 1389, called the "Battle of Blackbird Field," Serbian Prince Lazar was defeated by Ottoman Turks who laid the foundation for a 500-year Turkish rule in the Balkans that was to make the Kosovo defeat a piece of Serbian folklore.
Memories in the Balkan have roots in the deep past.
The Turks were practical rulers, said Marc Greenberg, associate professor of Slavic languages and literatures. They were less interested in maintaining a pan-Muslim empire than in exploiting the economic resources of the region. A religious divide separating Christian and Muslim Europe was born, and a permanent wound that has been inflamed by unscrupulous propaganda was inflicted, he said.
When Joseph Tito, the communist leader of the former Yugoslavia banded together the Balkans, he followed the same principle of regional-autonomy-under-one umbrella rule. The former Yugoslavia was carved into six autonomous republics, and Kosovo was made an autonomous Serbian province in the revised Yugoslav Constitution of 1974, said Bill March, assistant professor of Slavic languages and literatures.
The republics and the provinces sent representatives in what was a collective federal presidency.
According to The Chicago Tribune, the relative freedom that these republics and provinces possessed began to be threatened by the rise of Serbian president Slobodan Milosevic. In the 1980s, Milosevic was a fast up-and-coming communist leader.

In 1869, Milosevic ended Albanian autonomy, dismissed its parliament and imposed direct rule from Belgrade. Instruction in the Albanian language was
abolished, prompting a continuing research of propagation and sec.
boycott of universities and secondary schools, the Tribune reports.
After the breakup of communist Yugoslavia, Kosovo remained a province of Serbia, the largest Yugoslav republic, but Kosovo's self-governing status was abolished. The loss of
autonomy led to the birth of the Albanian Kosovar separatist movement. In underground elections held in 1992, Albanian Kosovars, under the stewardship of Ibrahim Rugova, set up a parallel government, according to newspaper reports.
The biggest jolt that Albanian Muslims received was when the Dayton peace accords of 1995 failed to mention the Kosovo problem, she said.
Even though Rugova lobbed intensely with Western governments to look into the problem, nobody cared, said Dhurata Ikonomi, Tirana, Albania, graduate student.
Tired of Rugova's pacifist efforts, militant Kosovo Albanians from the province and outside formed a militant separatist force called the Kosovo Liberation Army, said the BBC World Service.
Struggle between the Kosovo militants and the Serbian police has led to bloodshed and a massive refugee problem.A Feb. 28 Serbian crackdown on the KLA has led to almost 100 people being reported killed and almost 300,000 rendered homeless, the BBC added.
Reacting to the situation, NATO authorized punitive airstrikes against Serbia on Oct 12 and warned Milosovec that if it did not comply with certain conditions, Serbia would be bombed. The deadline has been indefinitely extended subject to Serbian attempts to allow the Kosovo Albanians to return home and reduce the troop presence in the province.

Kansas defense presses opponent to turnover ball
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
The Geelong Supercats weren't so super last night, but Kansas was much improved from its outing against the California All-Stars on Saturday.
The Jayhawks closed the exhibition season with a 140-78 win at Allen Field House.
Redshirt freshman Jeff Carey said the Jayhawks were more mentally ready for last night's game than they were for Saturday's.
"Last Saturday we weren't mentally prepared at all," Carey said. "Tonight, we played with more intensity and did a much better job on offense and defense."
The Kansas defense forced 27 turnovers and pressed the Supercats unlike last Saturday against the All-Stars. Kansas coach Row Williams said the Jayhawks improved their defense in practice.
"The other night, we didn't pick it up at all; we picked it up in the men's room." Williams said. "Tonight, we did get a chance to pick it up at the 10-second line which is what we're supposed to do, which was what we've done for 11 years now."
Williams was pleased with the team's play and saw improvement.
"We did a much better job, but we caught them when they were worn out and we were fresh," Williams said. "The thing I like the most is that defensively, they had a couple of guys who made a few very tough
snots, and for the most part we did a much,
much better job defensively tonight."
Kansas jumped out an early lead when Ryan Robertson hit a three-pointer on the Jayhawks' first possession. The Supercats never caught up to Kansas.
Robertson did not slow down on the night. He shot five for five from behind the three-point line.
Jeff Boschee, freshman point guard, relieved Robertson of some of his usual point guard duties so he could concentrate on scoring. Boschee, making his second start for the Jayhawks, led the Jayhawks in scoring with 21 points and added six assists.
Early in the second half, Lester Earl fell to the ground grasping his right knee. Moments later, Williams and Earl were walking off the court laughing as Earl punched the top of his right foot repeatedly.
Earl said Australia's Matt Wirkowski fell on his calf and hit a nerve, which caused his foot to go numb. Earl and the trainers had been concerned with his left knee because Earl had knee surgery last summer. Both knees and his foot are fine.
"It's (my left knee) getting better everyday," Earl said. "I don't know how the body works. I just try to work it out."
Scoring was spread evenly throughout the team, with all but one player scoring and seven Jayhawks scoring in double figures.

Combination of team inexperience, foul trouble hurts Australian team

earning experience.
After the 140-78 beating the Australian Geelong Supercats took from the Kansas basketball team, Australia coach Terry Kealey said his team simply was outmatched.
"We got spanked badly," Kealey said. "I was disappointed with our inability to get back on defense and with our inability to run our offense. But it's a learning thing for us. We bring young players in against some of the best players in the world for their age. We don't play with their sort of intensity."
Kansas' offensive weapons were too much as seven Jayhawks tallied double figures. The Australians struggled on defense, and Keely said his team wasn't used to Kansas' physical style.
"The holding on, the pushing, isn't allowed in Australia." Kealey said. "We had to get into the mind set. It's a lot more physical than we're used to."
The Australians ran into foul trouble early. Three Supercats collected five or more — but Kansas coach Roy Williams suggested that the players be allowed to stay in the game.
"I was happy that Coach Williams gave our players a chance to compete." Kealey said.
Geelong guard Rodney Walker hit 13 of 24 shots from the field, scoring 31 points in the game to lead the Supercats offensively. Walker is an American who played at New Mexico State University with Geelong teammate Clyde Jordan. Walker said the Supercats' inexperience was their biggest obstacle.
Kealey said playing at Allen Field House was one a good experience overall for his young players.
"The atmosphere in this place is great," Kealey said. "I can't think of a better place to play."
Women's basketball prepares for season
If a team ever had an excuse to overlook an opponent, this would be it.

standable, for the Jayhawks to overlook the exhibition game with Sunday's match-up against North Carolina on their minds.

"As a coach, I know
North Carolina is one spot ahead of Kansas in the two major polls. The Tar Heels are No.10 in The Associated Press poll and No.7 in USA Today/ESPN. Ranked No.11 and tied for eighth in the two polls, it would be almost impossible for the Javahawks not to look ahead.
how to handle a situation like this," said Coach Marian Washington. "I've just got to make sure my players are focused."
"North Carolina is certainly foremost on our minds, but it's important that we
not miss an opportunity to work on some things." Washington said.
"That's our big thing," said Lynn Pride, who scored a game-high 21 points in the first exhibition game. "We need more defensive effort, and we need it for the whole game."
The biggest of those things is defense. After last Wednesday's exhibition win over Myjava from Slovakia, Washington and many of her players pointed to
defense when asked what the team needed to work on.
The players also are learning the new motion offense. After last Wednesday's
game, Pride, who was mentioned among the runners-up for the preseason All American team, said the Jayhawks didn't understand the system. But yesterday, she said the team had made progress.
"I can say now that I have a better
understanding of it, but it's still not all there." Pride said.
"It's going to be an all-year-long emphasis," Washington said. "But once you understand it, you can create some nice opportunities once you're reacting and not thinking."
Kansas also must adjust to a new rule emphasis this year in women's college basketball. Big 12 officials, in particular, have promised to call the game closer in the post, where players will no
longer be allowed to use an open hand on an opponent while playing defense.
"We saw that in our first game, and it wasn't called." "Washington said of last week's match-up with Myjava. "We've been told that their first few games after us were called closer, and their big players fouled out quickly."
I am a female. I was born in 1987 and I am currently living in the United States. I am a female. I was born in 1987 and I am currently living in the United States.

For a coach, you just want to know what can we do and what can't we do."
Pride shared her coach's sentiments. "It's frustrating because the Big 12 told us it was going to be called closer," she said. "But I guess you really can't argue with the rules."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 11).
As you learn how to manage a team this year, you will be amazed at the results you produce. Your energy is awesome, and when you have others working with you anything is possible.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
the work is intense today, and complicated. Minimize distractions so you do not make mistakes. It is Veteran's Day, one of your most emotional holidays. You will want to pay your respects, of course. Do not let this one slip by. It is important to you as well as to them.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 7.
You are smart, especially when it comes to people you love and saving money. Both will be on your mind today as you shop for an important item. You and one dear to your heart need to discuss this matter carefully, then go ahead and act. You do not want to postpone if ever.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
There is confusion at your house today. The situation is scrambled, but that is OK. While things are in a state of flux, you can put in corrections you have not thought about in quite a while. Go ahead and rearrange until you have things just the way you want them.
Cancer [June 22-July 22]: Today is a 5.
You will have the opportunity to make money today. It will require service on your part again. That is not easy for a Leo, but if you can master this trick, you could wind up quite wealthy. You will not care about the wealth for yourself, either. It could not happen to a nicer person.
You will find it easy to learn today, and your attention to detail will be awesome. You have an excellent memory. If you have a difficult job to do, go ahead and study it now. You will be amazed at how much easier it becomes once you have the instructions down by heart
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 7.
Virgo (Aug 25 - Sep 13) you are coming into your own a little more today. You are strong, aggressive and careful. You want everything to be perfect, and for the next few days you can make that happen. Go ahead and be outrageous about it, as you request perfection from others, too.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
You are up against the deadline. There is a lot you wanted to have done by now, and it has not all been handled yet. If you focus on the details, you will do fine, but you have to keep the overview in mind, too. Do not get bogged down in the little stuff.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Get together with friends this morning and figure out what your next project is going to be. You have noticed areas in your neighborhood that need tidying up, and now is the time to take action. Do not wait for somebody else to do it. Just handle it yourself.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Something you have been trying to learn will finally start to make sense. Keep after it, even if it seems impossible. Learning is not a passive task. It requires your participation. You have to keep asking the tough questions, even if you keep getting negative answers.
Capricorn [Dec. 22-Jan. 19]: Today is a 7.
You have been studious long enough. Now it's time to have fun. Pry yourself free from your routine and try something new. Take a different route to work or venture a little further on your lunch hour. There are all sorts of interesting things out there. Today, plan on finding at least three of them.
C
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
Money is the problem right now — how to get it, how to spend it, all that stuff. There are regulations to be followed and probably paperwork to fill out. Once you know what you are after, the rest is going to be easy, so make that your first priority.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a 6.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is a b.
Put the finishing touches to the job you have been doing all week. It does not quite look like you wanted it, but that is OK. You can change your ideas to fit reality, and you can also change reality to fit your ideas. By doing both, you can reach a compromise you can live with. That is your assignment.

He also set a school record for 3-point field goal percentage in a game when he went 6-for-6 against Coastal Carolina. And he finished the 1997-98 season with the team's second highest 3-point accuracy at .368 going 35-for-95.
The 5-foot-11 Davis averaged 7.3 points, 3.3 assists, was 83 percent in free throw attempts and
made his 105th assist last year for the 17-12 Wildcats.
NEW YORK — Former ESPN
'SportsCenter' anchor Keith Olberm
man is leaving his nightly news
program on MSNBC to become the

Olbermann, who sought a "completely broad canvas" for his work when he left ESPN in June 1997, has expressed frustration over having to discuss the White House scandal every day on "The Big Show," his weeknight program on MSNB.C
Fox Sports contracts former ESPN anchor
Fox Sports paid MSNBC at least $1 million to buy out the nearly two years remaining on his contract with the cable news service, said an NBC executive who requested anonymity. Olbermann was paid under $700,000 a year at MSNC, and USA Today said he will earn about $1 million at Fox Sports.
"We're thrilled to have him," Fox Sports representative Vince Wladika said.
A news conference was scheduled for 1 p.m. to announce the hiring.
Olbermann's last show on MSNBO is expected to be Dec. 4. "Dateline NBC" correspondent John Hockenberry is the leading contender to replace Olbermann, according to the NBC executive.
Fox Sports also pursued Obermann last year before he signed with MSNBC. At the time, he did not want to move back to Los Angeles, where he once worked and do another sports highlight show.
Olbermann will anchor Fox's two
hour sports highlight show that airs
at 10 p.m. in every time zone,
Wladika said.
Instead, he preferred to branch out to news and work in the New York City area. Now he's returning to sports and to Los Angeles.
Also moving to Fox Sports along with Olbermann is ESPN "Up Close" host Chris Mvers.

Commentary
Gregory takes game to next level
I think Roy Williams might have found his next All-American.
If Saturday night's 31 point, 13 rebound
If Saturday night's 31 outburst is any indication, Kansas sophomore Kenny Gregory is ready to take his game to the next level.
PETER RICHARDSON
Against a talented California All-Star team, Gregory displayed the explosiveness and aggressiveness that made him a McDonald's High School All-American and one of Kansas' most celebrated recruits.
Kevin C.
Wilson
sports@kansan.com
After averaging an
underwhelming 7.1 points and 2 rebounds per game during his injury plagued freshman season, Gregory is expected to fill some of the void left by last year's All-Americans, RaeFlaFrentz and Paul Pierce. On Saturday he did just that.
Gregory dazzled Jayhawk fans with numerous rim-rattling dunks and provided Kansas with some much needed rebounding. More importantly, he did it when it mattered the most, at crunch-time. After the All-Stars cut Kansas' lead to 82-81 late in the game, Gregory took control. He scored 11 of the team's final 13 points leading the Jayhawks to victory.
Last year, Gregory would have stepped aside and let LaFrentz or Pierce take the big shot, but this season it's up to him.
In this year's basketball media guide, Gregory said that when his Kansas career was over he would like to be most remembered as a player who improved every year. That definitely won't be a problem if he continues to dominate the way he did on Saturday.
Five Big 12 teams are ranked in both the AP and USA Today/ESPN Top 25 polls. K-State, Texas A&M, Nebraska and Missouri are all in the top 15.
Don't look now, but the Big 12 Conference has developed into the football powerhouse that was envisioned when the league was formed in 1996.
If you compare that to the more highly regarded football conferences like the SEC, PAC-10 and Big 10, you can see that the Big 12 more than holds it own.
The SEC has four teams in the Top 25, including No.1 Tennessee and No.4 Florida, and have the most top-to-bottom talent.
The PAC-10 is represented in the Top 25 polls by only three teams, the overrated UCLA Bruins, the overachieving Arizona Wildcats and the unexpected Oregon Ducks. This was supposed to be a banner year for the PAC-10, but Arizona State, USC and Washington have been huge disappointments.
The Big 10 has four schools in the Top 25, Wisconsin, Ohio St., Michigan and Penn St., but the rest of the conference is a mess. The Big 10 will be lucky if enough teams gain the required number of wins to fill the league's automatic bowl bids.
As you can see, the Big 12 has risen to the top of the college football heap and along with the SEC, has provided the season's most competitive and exciting football.

Kansas basketball to focus on defense in final exhibition
By Erin Thompson
Kanson sportswriter
After beating a strong California All-Stars team Saturday, the Kansas basketball team will look to iron out remaining wrinkles during its final exhibition game tonight.
The Jayhawks face the Australian Geelong Supercats at 7:05 tonight at Allen Field House. The Supercats will not be pushovers. Unlike most exhibition opponents, Geelong plays together all year and recently made it to the finals of Australia's Continental Basketball Association postseason tournament.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said he expected to see more outside shooting from the Supercats than Kansas saw from the California All-Stars.
Geelong is 1-2, after defeating Tennessee Martin and losing to McNeese State, 86-72, and Memphis, 120-85, on Thursday. The Supercats have not played since then and have been in Lawrence since Sunday, so they should be well rested.
Ken Cole, Geelong's general manager, said he had brought teams on tours for nearly 40 years and was a fan of Williams and the Kansas program.
"The Kansas fans are indeed the finest I've ever been involved with in my 40 years of travel." Cole said. "Roy Williams is the vardistk all others are measured by."
To contain the Supercats, the Jayhawks must improve on their defensive transition. On Saturday, Kansas struggled against the fast breaks the California All-Stars threw at them. Williams said his team gave up more baskets than any Kansas team he had coached in the 11 years he has been here.
Ryan Robertson, guard, said the Jayhaws needed to work on a lot but defensive transition was one of their top concerns.
"We're not very good right now," Robertson said. "There were a lot of things that we did wrong and that's due to our inexperience."
Defensively, the Supercats should play man-to-man. The Jayhawks were able to score easily against the zone defense the All-Stars played in the first half but did
not have as much success against the man-
to-man they played in the second half.
"We penetrated the gaps in the zone during the first half. Overall, I think we did well offensively, but we have to work on our defense," said center Eric Chenowith. One of the things Kansas will have on its side is the strong fan support in Allen Field House.
"The atmosphere in Allen Field House is unlike any other. It's a great opportunity for our players to go down there and experience that," Cole said. "We have a good group of players and we hope to give Kansas a good game."
Kansas will hope to extend its exhibition-win streak to 10 with a win tonight. The last time the Jayhawks lost was in November 1993 to an Australian team.

Jayhawks finish 'near-miss' soccer season
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The 1989 Kansas soccer season will most likely be remembered for its one-goal defeats, near-miss victories and goal scoring droughts. The Jayhawks finished the season 5-13-1
The Jayhawks finished the season 5-13-1 overall, 1-8-1 in the Big 12 Conference, their worse record in the program's four years.
KANSAS 11
Throw in the fact that eight of the 13 losses were by one goal, and it could be concluded that the season wasn't as bad as the record appeared.
the defense allowed a record-low 34 goals this year. Former Kansas coach Dan Magner, who resigned last Tuesday after the season, said he had two number one goalies to choose from toward the end of the year.

Katie Garrity and Jen Fecke both had superb performances in the nets this year. Fecke held 24th-ranked James Madison and Big 12 champion and 13th-ranked Baylor to one goal each. Garrity held big 12 runner-up and 12th-ranked Nebraska scoreless for 88 minutes and 45 seconds before allowing the only goal of the game to the Big 12's leading scorer, Kim Engesser.
Magner said that despite its poor record, Kansas showed themselves capable of playing with everyone in the conference.
"We had a strong season all together on defense," Fecke said. "We played as a unit, regardless of who was in goal."
"Games against Nebraska and Baylor in particular come to mind, considering they are one-two in the conference," he said. "We kept ourselves in a position to win those games."
The Jayhawks did start brightly. After nine games, they stood at 5-4 and were coming off a record-breaking performance in a 50 win against Western Illinois.
Magner and defenders Jackie Dowell and
Ashley Gorman the turning point of the season came after a 1-loss to Baylor.
"We lost a lot of close games, but the Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech games we could have won easily," Gorham said. "If we had won those, we could be on our way to San Antonio (for the Big 12 tournament) now."
"It's really hard to say if there was a turning point, but I would trace it back to the weekend in Oklahoma," Dowell said. "We still had potential, but I think that was the breaking point."
Those three games came in a span of four days. Then Kansas tied Oklahoma State 1-1 after having the lead until the 84th minute. Oklahoma would shock the Jayhawks 3-0 and Kansas would close out the weekend losing to Texas Tech 1-0.
"We had an opportunity there to gather nine points and we came away with one," Magner said. "If there was a critical juncture, it was that weekend."
Following forward Erin Hon's goal in the 29th minute at Oklahoma State, Kansas failed to score for a team-record 585 minutes. Forward Lindsey Horner would finally break the spell late in the first half of a 4-1 loss to Texas A&M. But the Jayhawks would not score again in identical 1-losses to Colorado and Wyoming that closed out the season.
"A real positive for us was we created goal-scoring chances," Magner said. "I think not taking full advantage of the chances we created haunted us."
Kansas had its share of near-misses this year. In soccer terms, a near-miss is a chance on goal that barely misses.
Among those near-misses were two free kicks taken by Dowell in 1-0 losses to Baylor and Texas Tech that rattled the crossbar.
"I think a lot of times you create your
own luck, yet at times we were unlucky, in particular Jackie's kicks hitting the crossbar, those were unlucky," Magner said.
"That has been the rivalry, and we put
But the season was not without good moments. Dowell, a senior, said that the 10 upset win against Missouri might have been her favorite game in her four years.
Magner agreed.
hard work in that game and got the result we deserved," she said.
"Missouri was tremendous in a lot of aspects," he said. "Missouri is a top-flight team, and it was our number one rival at home. A lot of things point to that game as the game of the season for us."

Kansas State mourns death of former basketball coach
Funeral services for Hartman were in Ahearn Fieldhouse, where the Wildcats played until moving to Bramlage Coliseum in 1888. Hartman, who coached Kansas State to 295 wins from 1970 to 1986, died Friday at age 72 in Santa Fe, N.M.
MANHATTAN — In the building where he earned his fame as the winning coach in Kansas State men's basketball history, more than 1,000 mourners gathered yesterday to remember Jack Hartman.
The Associated Press
"We are here not only to remember a man who was loved by so many, but also to give thanks to God, who created him," the Rev. Jim Reed said.
Hartman's friends said he left behind a legacy of discipline and order and was respected.
"Jack Hartman is a man of integrity. Jack Hartman is a man of principle," said Mike Riordan, a close friend.
Hartman began his college basketball career as a player at Oklahoma State, where he also played quarterback for the Cowboys. After playing in the Canadian Football League, he began his coaching career at Coffeyville Community College in Kansas.
"As tough as he was, he was a teddy bear," former Kansas State basketball announcer Fred White said. "He loved his family very, very much, he loved his school, he loved life and he loved this world."
Hartman coached at Southern Illinois-Carbondale for eight seasons before coaching at Kansas State, where he impacted students, colleagues and fans.
"He was always so kind to me, and when I first came here he was someone that received me so very well," Kansas State football coach Bill Snyder said. "I liked to visit with him about Kansas State, and he was so willing
to share—just a good, all-around guy."
After leading the Wildcats to three Big 8 conference titles and two Big 8 Conference Tournament championships, he moved into the broadcast booth, serving as a color analyst for Kansas State's Wildcats Television Network.
Hartman worked with Mitch Holthus, who served as Kansas State's play-by-play announcer for 13 years. Holthus said Hartman's spirit of discipline and teaching as a coach continued when he sat behind the microphone.
"I was a brand new announcer, and he was a kind of guy who could instill the fear of God in me." Holthus said. "He was the epitome of discipline and order, and his teams played that way."

Loss to Spartans big deal for Ohio State
Buckeyes had held No.1 spot all season
The Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio — In 1963, as a 25-year-old only a year out of college, John Cooper applied for an assistant coaching job at Oregon State. While interviewing with coach Tommy Prothro, he was given advice that he would never forget.
"He said, 'John, in coaching there are a lot of peaks and valleys. The longer you're in it, the peaks don't get any higher and the valleys get deeper." Cooper said.
saving something.
The now 61-year-old Ohio State coach said, "I've been through some valleys, but the one this week was particularly deep."
The latest defeat was as painful as any for Buckeyes fans, and that is
During his head coaching jobs at Tulsa, Arizona State and now 11 years with the Buckeyes, Cooper has won 176 games and lost only 73. But he may be remembered more for some losses than for winning two Rose Bowls and twice leading teams to No. 2 in the final Associated Press poll.
After all, four times in the past six seasons Cooper's teams have been unbeaten in November. Each time, they lost to a school from Michigan.

g fans that hoped for the school's first national championship in 30 years.
Cooper has become accustomed to the after-shocks following unexpected defeats.
"When you lose, you can't sleep," he said. "So I got up early and went to work a little earlier than usual, around 7:30 in the morning. And some of the coaches were already there."
Not that others did not belittle him. If he read the local newspaper, he would have seen the article criticizing his play-calling on Ohio State's final two series. Those calling in to radio shows this week have continually attacked Cooper and his staff for running on 12 straight plays on the next-to-last series, then passing all six downs on the Buckeyes' last chance. Neither produced points.
The Buckeyes practiced Sunday while still in a state of shock. Cooper said he didn't beltle his players and didn't have to point out mistakes.
Cooper was asked about his play selection after the game.
"That's some real good second-guessing," he said.
He declined to say it was the most disappointing loss of his career. Given the opportunity during his weekly news conference to blame his quarterback, Joe Germaine, he defended him instead.
He got angry when told that some TV analysts had singled out a freshman fullback for missing a block that halted the Buckeyes' next-to-last drive. Cooper said the player did his job and there were breakdowns elsewhere.
With his team 8-1 and ranked seventh, the Buckeyes now must seek something other than a No.1 ranking.
"The worst thing you can do is hang your head and feel sorry for yourself," Cooper said.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE Preseason Basketball
Ex-WNBA coach at A&M
Women's team ready for upcoming season
by Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Nothing demands respect quite like championship rings, so earning her players' regard was no problem for first-year Texas A&M women's basketball coach Peggie Gillom.
Gillom has two, which she earned as an assistant coach the past two seasons for the WNBA's Houston Comets.
"She showed us," said junior Prissy Sharpe, the team's leading scorer and rebounder last year. "But it wasn't like she was showing off. She was just saying, 'See what you can do if you believe you can do this.'"
Houston was not the first place Gillom had success. She played at the University of Mississippi from 1978-80 and graduated as the school's all-time leading scorer and rebounder. She then
served as an assistant coach at Mississippi from 1981-97, during which time the Rebels compiled a 371-119 record.
The Comets were 51-14 during Gillom's two championship seasons in Houston.
"Right off the bat, we knew who she was," Sharpe said. "You have to respect her with all she's done."
The Aggies surrendered 77.9 points per game last season — 11th in the Big 12
— so it is no surprise what the team has spent the bulk of its practices working on.
"We're working on defense, defense, defense," Gillom said. "I'm going to adjust to the players instead of having the players adjust to me."
That willingness to work with the team has made the transition from former coach Candi Harvey an easy one for the players.
"We like her a lot," senior Kerrie Patterson said of Gillom. "It's not hard to get used to people you like, and she's pretty cool. All of us really want someone to have confidence in us and to have fun. Once you have fun, you're going to
win."
Patterson and Sharpe are two of the team's four returning starters. The Aggies return their top seven scorers, and there is more to work with than Gillom expected when she inherited a team which had won nine games in each of the last two seasons.
"The talent is a whole lot better than I thought it'd be." Gillom said.
Big 12 women's basketball is known for its strong coaches — Texas Tech's Marsha Sharp, Texas' Jody Conradt, Kansas' Marian Washington, Colorado's Ceal Barry and Baylor's Hogg are among the most highly respected coaches in the nation — but that does not scare Gillom.
"That makes me want to work even harder," she said. "I'm used to winning. I'm not scared, I'm ready ready for the challenge."
Texas A&M was picked 11th in the Big 12 in a preseason poll done by the league's coaches. The Aggies play Kansas on Jan. 2 in College Station, Texas.
Aggies gain new coach, arena
By Brandon Krisztu
Kansan sportswriter
Melvin Watkins
"If you look at the history of the program, I have my work cut out for me ... I think there is a new excitement around campus for a lot of reasons including that we have a new facility."
The highlight of the season for the Texas A&M men's basketball team may not occur on the court, it may come when the Aggies open the doors Friday for the inaugural season at Reed Arena.
Reed Arena is a state-of-the art facility that has Aggies hoops fans and new head coach Melvin Watkins looking for a new start for a struggling program. Texas A&M was the doormat of the Big 12 last year, winning only one conference game and finishing with a 7-20 record.
New head coach for Texas A&M's men's basketball team
Watkins, the former head coach at UNC-Charlotte, brings success to College Station. During his two years as the 49ers coach, he compiled a 42-20 overall mark, and his teams qualified for the NCAA Tournament twice.
However, he is not sure what to expect from his team in his first season with the Aggies.
"If you look at the history of the program, I have my work cut out for me,"
he said. "I'm very excited and the kids are working hard, if that means anything. I think there is a new excitement around campus for a lot of reasons including that we have a new facility."
Forward Shanne Jones and guard Jerald Brown are Texas A&M's returning starters. Both players will be looked upon to carry the load for the Aggies.
Last season, Big 12 coaches selected Jones, who led the team with 18 points a game, as third-team All-Big 12. He was also the team's second leading rebound, grabbing 6.7 boards a game.
Brown, who is the most highly sought-after recruit in school history, is going to have to play well if the Aggies hope to have any success.
The Aggies are hoping that Aaron Jack will be able to make the transition from forward to center in his sophomore season. The 6-foot-8 Jack averaged 8.3 points and 6.5 rebounds a game last year.
Four players, who scored an average of 33.8 points for the team last year, are no longer Aggies. That means an extra emphasis will be put on the newcomers this season. Texas A&M has three transfers and four high school players who are new to the team.
Point guard Clifton Cook will receive the most attention of all the newcomers. Cook is a true point guard, who averaged 17.1 points and four rebounds per game at Howard College in Texas.
Chamique Holdschaw and Tamika Catchings, the brightest of the many stars at Tennessee, were the top vote-getters yesterday on The Associated Press women's preseason All-America basketball team.
Tennessee players lead AP All-American team
The Associated Press
Holdsclaw, a senior and last season's AP player of the year, was the only unanimous pick by a national panel of writers and broadcasters, and became the first player to make the preseason team three times. Catchings, a sophomore, missed being a unanimous selection by just three votes.
Pride:received votes for preseason All-American.
Seniors Dominique Canty of Alabama, Stephanie White-McCarty of Purdue and Amanda Wilson of Louisiana Tech also were named to the team, chosen by the panel that votes in the weekly women's poll.
PETER B. HUNTER
Holdscwl was named on all 42 ballots after leading Tennessee to a 39-0 record and its third straight national championship. Catchings, part of Tennessee coach Pat Summitt's Fab Four recruiting class last season, received 39 votes.
Canty was third in the voting with 33, White-McCarty had 23 and Wilson 19.
A third Tennessee player. sophomore
semeka Randall, came close to making the All-America team. She had 13 votes and UCLA's Maylana Martin received 12.
In addition to making the preseason team for the third time, Holdsclaw also was the leading vote-getter for the third year in a row. Connecticut's Kara Wolters is the only other player who has made the team more than once, being selected in 1995-96 and 1996-97.
The AP began choosing a women's All- America team in the 1994-95 season.
Holdsclaw has been perfect in her basketball career, playing on four-state championship teams in high school and three NCAA title teams at Tennessee. At 6-feet-2, she is so versatile that the Tennessee media guide lists her as a guard-forward-center.
Last season, Holdscwlaw averaged 23.5 points, the best of her college career. She also averaged 8.4 rebounds and 2.8 steals and shot 54.6 percent.
and show What so what is left for the player who could touch off a bidding war between the two professional leagues next spring?
"Just go out there and take the game to another level," Holdswclaw said. "I know that personally, I am not worried about the streaks. I just know that when playing time

comes, I want to go out there and win these games and win another national championship."
A 6-1 forward, Catchings averaged 18.2 points and eight rebounds while shooting 53.7 percent as a freshman. She had a season high of 35 points against DePaul and led Tennessee with 27 points in the national championship game last March, a 93-75 victory against Louisiana Tech.
Catchings was so impressive that she already is being talked about as the next Holdscwal.
"I don't see it as being fetcheted," Summit said. "It's going to be important for her to believe she's the best, no matter how her game is going."
Canty averaged 21.5 points and 7.1 rebounds for an Alabama team that gave Tennessee its two closest games prior to NCAA play. She also averaged 4.8 assists as the Tide finished 24-10.
"She has an opportunity this season to establish herself as one of the nation's top players." Alabama coach Rick Moody said. "We will depend on her more than ever. She won't be surrounded by the experienced superstars she has been in the past."
White-McCarty led Purdue in scoring (20,6), rebounding (6.1) and assists (4.8) last season as the Boilermakers won the Big Ten tournament and reached the final eight in NCAA play.

Oakland's Ben Grieve wins Rookie of the Year
The Associated Press
NEW YORK-Ben Grieve easily won the American League Rookie of the Year award yesterday, highlighting a season in which his left-handed swing made an immediate impact.
The 22-year-old right fielder for the Oakland Athletics was the only candidate named on all 28 ballots. He received 23 first-place votes and five seconds to finish
with 130 points in banishing by the Baseball Writers' Association of
"It means a lot after a long season to get recognition like this." Grieve said. "But at the same time, it doesn't change anything. It's just an award. I can't get too much of a big head next year."
Tampa Bay pitcher Rolando
AMERICAN LEAGUE
Tampa Bay price Arrojo earned four first-place votes and 61 points. Chicago shortstop Mike Caruso was third with 34 points, followed by New York's Orlando Hernandez who finished with 25 points and the other first-place vote.
Grieve is the fifth A's player to win the award, Joining Walt Weiss (1988), Mark McGwire (1987), Jose Canseco (1986) and Harry Byrd (1952).
Grieve hit higher than .300 in each of the first three months and became the first Oakland rookie since McGwire to play in the All-Star game.
Arrojo and Hernandez, both Cuban defectors, were the top rookie pitcher in the AL. Arrojo, who defected during the 1996 Olympics, went 14-12 with a 3.56 ERA and made the All-Star team. Hernandez, who flied Cuba on a raft last December, went 12-4 with a 3.13 ERA after being called up June 3.
Caruso led AL rookies with a .306 average but made 35 errors.
Chicago's Kerry Wood, who grew up only a few miles from Grieve in Texas and played against him in high school, won the NL Rookie of the Year award Monday.
The NL Manager of the Year will be announced today. Chicago's Jim Riggleman, San Diego's Bruce Bochy and Houston's Larry Dierker are the favorites.
K-State vs. Nebraska still big
'Huskers not used to playing the role of underdog team
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — Two losses took Nebraska out of the national title picture, but the Cornhuskers still know a big game when they see it. And this one at Kansas State is huge.
"I know the team's jacked up and that's all I really care about," defensive end Chad Kelsay said yesterday. "We're going to go down to K-State and we're ready to get it on down there."
In August, it seemed that Saturday's showdown in Manhattan would be the season's biggest game. Most expected both teams to be unbeaten for a contest that would thin the crop of national championship contenders.
"We haven't been in this position in a long time," fullback Joel Makovka said. "In my career here, we've been the ones on top and people have always taken their bests shots at us."
It's an odd fit for a Nebraska program that has won two national titles the past four seasons.
No, the No. 11 'Huskers (8-2, 4-2 Big 12) are thrust into the role of spoiler against No. 2 Kansas State (9-0, 6-0).
Kansas State needs badly to beat Nebraska
Huskers
There is the obvious need to stay on track for the Fiesta Bowl. A Kansas State schedule that has been criticized
repeatedly as too weak should get a significant boost if the Wildcats win.
More importantly, Kansas State could ratify its claim as a national program. The Wildcats haven't beaten the 'Huskers since 1968, and a victory Saturday would symbolize seize the Big 12's mantle of power.
Don't expect the 'Huskers to hand over the torch. Nebraska coach Frank Solich said Kansas State deserved accolades for what's been
It has been an unusual season in Lincoln. Injuries at quarterback and running back, combined with an inexperienced offensive line, have slowed an offense that traditionally out-muscled opponents.
accomplished, but the 'Huskers still thought highly of themselves.
And the 'Huskers twice have faced something that happened only three times during the five previous seasons: defeat. Last month, Nebraska lost 28-21 at Texas A&M and 20-16 at home to Texas.
"I don't think it needs to be said. Everybody on the team is disappointed about the way we played in those two losses," linebacker Jay Foreman said.
So it's not just Kansas State that has a lot at stake this weekend.
it's a big game, and I think our team is going to step up and play well." Foreman said. "Everybody knows what's riding on this game, as far as making a statement that our program is not going downhill."
Two new drug tests could be approved for Sydney Olympics
The Associated Press
LONDON — A British expert on sports doping is optimistic that tests for two widely used but hard-to-detect performance enhancers will be ready in time for the 2000 Sydnev Olympics.
David Cowan, director of the Drug Control Center at King's College London, said the Sydney drug lab was prepared to institute new testing procedures at short notice, including ones for human growth hormone (HGH) and erythropoietin (EPO).
Those tests probably would require blood samples rather than urine, he said.
"We are optimistic we will be able to do some things in Sydney." Cowan said.
No valid tests exist for detecting HGH and EPO, banned substances that are believed to be many athletes' drugs of choice.
The growth hormone helps build strength, and EPO is an endurance-boosting hormone.
The International Olympic Committee (IOC) said it would only introduce new tests if they were 100 percent foolproof.
Cowan said he believed blood samples would be required if reliable HGH and EPO tests were used in Sydney.
"If we are to detect growth normone by the year 2000, then blood samples will be necessary." he said.
Standard drug testing is done on urine samples. Some experts oppose blood testing on practical and moral grounds.
Missouri defense changes turnovers into touchdowns
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — It's getting to the point where no Missouri game is complete without a touchdown from the defense.
The No. 13 Tigers (7,2-5,1 Big 16) have converted turnovers into instant scores in four straight games. They've scored five times on defense overall, providing a huge help for an offense that has struggled much of the season.
"They're amazing," quarterback Corby Jones said. "I'm just going to start expecting them to score."
The run began while Jones was hobbling with a sprained left big toe that transformed him from one of the nation's top option threats into a dropback, hand off guy. Against Oklahoma, senior Wade Perkins intercepted two passes in a 20-6 victory, and returned one of them 36 yards for a first-half touchdown that provided a cushion.
The following week, defensive tackle Steve Erickson ran a fumble back for a touchdown at Nebraska in a 20-13 loss. Another defensive tackle, Terrell Jurineack, had a 17-yard tandem return in a 28-26 victory at Texas Tech.
Then last week, defensive back Carlos Posey got the Tigers off to a fast start when he intercepted a sideline pass from Colorado's Mike Moschetti and returned it 61 yards in the first quarter for a 14-0 lead 5:04 into the game.
Posey also scored on a fumble return at Ohio State earlier in the season. His latest score came with Jones finally recovered from his injury. Jones and Devin West each run for 100 yards against Colorado in a 38-14 victory that bumped the Tigers up five spots in the poll.
"We've got the right things going for us," Posey said. "We've got everything we need now, and it's great that our offense is back to where it used to be.

Smoking a threat to men's sex lives
(USPS 650-640)
Impotence linked to cigarette usage recent study claims
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
Men who smoke could be stifling their sex lives.
Health experts have found that smoking may cause impotence in men, and anti-smoking forces have used the information to their advantage.
William Dixon, staff physician at Watkins Health Center, said that the information might get people to kick the habit.
"Maybe not getting an erection will get them to stop smoking." Dixon said.
This correlation between smokers and impotence is causing concern around the world.
In Thailand, the health ministry ordered the country's tobacco monopoly to print a new warning on cigarette packages: Cigarette smoking causes sexual impotence.
However, the label only appears on some packages.
In England, public health activists are pushing for a similar warning.
Clive Bates, director of the London-based Action on Smoking and Health, said the warnings about smoking and impotence are effective because cigarettes are often associated with the after-sex experience.
But the link between smoking and impotence is not absolute.
Dixon said that smoking could cause a decreased blood supply to the penis, which would affect a man's ability to have an erection.
"The advantage of the penis, from a communications point of view, is that it is easy to imagine it shriveled up and shrunken, whereas damage to other vital organs, such as the heart, is much less obvious," Bates said.
A 1994 study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention found that smokers were twice as likely as non-smokers to be impotent.
"Literature on smoking and impotence is not at the level where we can say smoking causes impotence." Dixon said.
Despite concerns, not everyone has taken the warning seriously.
Sam Iga, Plano, Texas, senior,
said he didn't really believe
smoking caused impotence.
The risk of impotence also has not affected Alan Liddeke, Lindsborg sophomore, from cutting his habit.
"Right now, it's really not a big concern." Liddeke said.
Liddeke said that a bigger concern for him was lung cancer. He said that he was actually thinking about quitting.
The hype regarding impotence and smoking also could be an inaccurate distortion of the 1994 study, said statistician Steven J. Millov.
Milloy adjusted the CDC data to consider blood vessel disease, hormone imbalances and other risk factors. As a result of Milloy's adjustments, the link between smoking and importance became statistically insignificant.
Viagra's popularity also has contributed to the hype.
Pfizer Inc. reported that three of four men who participated in its clinical trials for Viagra were smokers.
Although there is a debate regarding the correlation between smoking and impotence, Dixon said the only way to avoid any effects of smoking was to just not do it.
The Associated Press contributed to this story.

Club seeks mid-week crowd with '80s band
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan saff writer
TOM PETTY
Members of local rock bands and one local musician have joined together to give the Lawrence mid-week club scene a shot in the arm.
Star 80 is an '80s cover band that plays at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St., every Wednesday night from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m. The band has played at The Bottleneck since the beginning of September.
"I don't think that there is a bar in America that is busy on a Wednesday night," said Al Jacobsen, manager and bartender at The Bottleneck.
Towni Freeland, vocalist for Star 80,
sings at the Bottleneck, 740 New
Hampshire St.
Jacobsen said the management wanted to give people an option for something fun to do in the middle of the week that would increase the amount of Wednesday night bar patrons.
He said that the show's popularity had started off slow, only averaging about 100 people each Wednesday night.
Star 80 was organized by Andy Morton, who is a member of Danger Bob. The band also is composed of Jason "Dr. Love" Lovell of Danger Bob, Tawni Freeland and Craig Hanning of the Glitter Kicks, Mike Tobin of Stick and Jim Dayton, the only member who does not play in a band.
Morton said that the idea for an '80s cover band had been talked about for the last two years. Morton and The Bottleneck management knew that retro music was very popular in Lawrence, and they wanted to bring the enthusiasm generated by the Thursday retro night at Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St., to The Bottleneck.
Star 80 has a 28-song set list that it picks from each week. It plays both popular songs and songs that people barely would remember.
"winter 24 hours we had a band," Morton said.
Morton was approached by management this summer to go ahead with the idea.

"There are some songs that you have to play because they are so important to the decade, but there are a lot of screwball songs that people haven't heard since the '80s," Morton said. "You can only play so many screwballs before you lose your audience."
Last night, Katie Angermeier, Lawrence freshman, attended the show.
"It's better to hear the music played live, rather than the retro show at the Granada," Angermeier said. "You get to watch the show while you listen to the music."
The future of the band is uncertain.
Morton said that the band would continue to play as long as it was fun and people wanted to see them.
"It's a fad," Morton said. "It will wear off, and when it does, we will all go home."
Streamlining creates improvements

When Chancellor Robert Hemenway streamlined administration and cut staff positions in 1996, he had specific goals in mind for the University of Kansas.
University's grade:
Del Shankel, professor emeritus of molecular biosciences
executive vice chancellor was eliminated and the provost's position was created. The information technology and library departments were joined into a new department under the provost.
In Spring 1996, Hemenway unveiled his plan to reorganize the University's administration. The position of
Former and current administrators and the chancellor say the changes resulted in less bureaucracy and improved computer tech-

Hemenway said that streamlining had enabled numerous campus improvements, including the Budig Hall computer lab.
In his Fall 1995 convocation address, Hemenway said that the University should allocate both private and
nology.
"I think we have saved money, but we have reallocated it to the academic areas and places where we need to see improvement." Hemenway said.
Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for information services, said that the change in computer technology at the University since Hemenway's arrival in 1995 was astonishing.

He said advancements had been made in University technology because the chancellor made funds available by streamlining administration and because of the combination of the libraries and information technology offices. 'Crowe said that information technology was much less organized before Hemenway arrived and that the present structure made it easier to keep the computer system at the University competitive.

Study for virus planned
120 women sought for genital wart trial
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Buck said fliers and posters would be placed at campus sites to solicit participation.
The University of Kansas will participate in a vaccine study designed to prevent one strain of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) that causes genital warts and cell changes.
tion in the study.
Physicians also will speak to women at Watkins.
The study for the HPV 16 Virus-like Particle Vaccine will begin after today at the University. About 120 females will be sought for participation in the study, which will take up to three years to complete, said Henry Buck, head of gynecology for Watkins Memorial Health Center.
HPV
Merck & Company is the pharmaceutical firm conducting the study. Buck said the firm had tested the vaccine safely on 61 people.
The study is being conducted at 15 medical sites, six of which are college health centers. The results will help Federal Drug Administration approval.
Human Papillomavirus (HPV) can be contracted by men and women through sexual intercourse, genital-to-genital touching, oral sex or hand-to-genital touching.
Type 16 is only one of more than 80 strains of the HPV virus. One-third of those are sexually transmitted and can result in genital warts or abnormal cells. But people can carry the virus without ever having symptoms.
Half of the study's participants will be injected with a placebo, and the

other half will be given the HPV 16 Virus-like Particle Vaccine. Subjects will receive an initial injection, a second injection at one month and a third injection at six months.
"It has protein structures similar to the virus that make the immune system think that it is a virus," Buck said. "It's similar to safe vaccines for other types of viral diseases."
Buck emphasized that women could not catch HPV Type 16 from the vaccine because it was not made from a live virus
More than 50 percent of all cervical cancers are related to Type 16. That is the reason the strain is being studied, Buck said.
Buck said although some experts had said that once someone contracted the virus, it never went away, he thought the most important factor was that genital warts and abnormal cells could be removed. Once they are removed, a person probably will not infect another person with the virus.
Both men and women can contract HPV by contact with genital warts or abnormal cells found on the cervix. Contact can occur in sexual intercourse, genital-to-genital touching, oral sex or hand-to-genital touching.
Because of how it can be contracted, Buck said that condoms did not provide adequate protection and that sexual abstinence was the only sure way to avoid infection.
According to the American College Health Association, college-age people continue to be at a higher risk than the general population for HPV.
Barnara Babbat, supervisor for the Center for Disease Control's national STD Hot line, said the college-age population lacked knowledge about HPV.
"There is not much published about it, and it is not a life-threatening sexually transmitted disease," she said. "And, there is no test for HPV. Men and women don't know they have it until they develop warts that can be seen or until a woman has an abnormal psmel that shows abnormal cells."
40
Buck said that in 11 years he had seen an average of 300 cases of sexually transmitted strains of HPV each year.

KU journalism alumnus has Hallmark of success
A University of Kansas alumnus shared his knowledge about film production with students yesterday.
Jan Parkinson, vice president of Hallmark Hall of Fame productions, spoke to an Introduction to Film Medium class at Budig Hall.
Parkinson, whc graduated from the University of Kansas with a journalism degree, was invited by John Tibbetts, assistant professor of theater and film, to speak during the class.
Parkinson said that the University of Kansas always had been close to his heart and that he wanted to share what he had learned from working in the film industry.
Tibbetts said that he had been teaching his students about film production from a local perspective — such as locally made films, films about the area and local filmmakers — and that because Parkinson worked in the Hallmark Hall of Fame's Kansas City office, he was a good example.
Parkinson also was given a tour of Oldfather Studios so he could learn more about the KU film department.

Social Welfare to hold career fair tomorrow
The School of Social Welfare will hold a career fair, titled "Educating Students for Ethical Social Work Practice," from 1 to 3:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Kansas Union Ballroom. Refreshments will be served before the fair at 8:30 a.m., and a short program will begin at 9 a.m.
Jess said the fair allowed agency representatives to discuss their agencies with graduating students, who might be seeking jobs, and prospective practicum students.
"It's an opportunity to spread information so students can make informed decisions," said Jan Jess, director and coordinator of the social welfare practicum.
Guest lecturer Howard Goldstein, professor emeritus of the Case Western Reserve University, will open the fair by giving a speech about social work ethics.
Jess said that the school invited 60 to 70 human-service agencies to campus each year.

KU student harassed about parking space
A University of Kansas student was assaulted Tuesday morning when she tried to park her car in a handicapped parking spot north of Haworth Hall.
The student, who has a handicapped parking permit, found a Jeep without a permit parked in a handicapped stall at 9 a.m. in Lot 37 north of Wearth Hall.
Officer Anthony Augusto of the KU Public Safety Office said the woman called the parking department to have the Jeep removed.
Before parking officials arrived, Augusto said, a white male got out of the Jeep and threatened the woman.
The student got the Jeep's license plate number, and the Parking Department issued a citation to the woman who was driving it for parking in a handicapped stall. Augusto said.
Man avoids hit by auto but is punched by driver
A man was battered by the driver of a car that almost ran over him in a crosswalk Tuesday evening.
According to a police report from the KU Public Safety Office, the man, a Lawrence resident, was battered at 5:35 p.m. at the intersection of Jayhawk Boulevard and Sunflower Road.
Officer Anthony Augusto said the driver of the vehicle that almost hit the pedestrian stopped and approached the man. The driver then threatened the man and hit him in the face.
"Then the subject got back in his car and drove off." Augusto said.

The victim got the suspect's license plate number, and the case is still being investigated, Augusto said.
Two fraternity properties vandalized this week
Vandals struck two University of Kansas fraternities this week, causing an estimated $1,000 in damages.
The most recent vandalism was at the Delta Upsilon house, 1025 Emmery Road.
Lawrence police said that early Tuesday morning someone intentionally drove an '80s-model Jeep Cherokee through the lawn of the house, causing about $500 in damage.
"Witnesses said they saw the suspect doing doughnuts in the lawn," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "They then got in their cars and chased after the suspect's car."
The fraternity members were not able to see the driver but wrote down the car's license plate number. They contacted police at 2:32 a.m.
Wheeler said the fraternity members saw the car being driven in the 1600 block of High Drive, near the Kappa Delta sorority house.
Police said that a 22year-old male KU student was a suspect but that they had not yet contacted him.

81-year-old woman dies in auto crash on K-10
LAWRENCE
An 81-year-old Eudora woman was killed Tuesday afternoon in a two-car accident near Lawrence.
The accident occurred at 4:40 p.m. about three miles east of Lawrence on Kansas Highway 10, said Douglas County Sheriff's Lt. Ken McoGovern.
Douglas County Sheriff Loren Anderson said that the two cars both were going east toward Eudora, when the woman — who was in the right-hand lane — turned left and cut across the left-hand lane. The driver of the car in that lane, an Independence, Mo., man, struck the woman's car broadside.
The woman's 1991 Chevrolet four-door car was totaled, and she was taken to a Kansas City hospital by helloopter, where she was pronounced dead, McGovern said.
The Missouri man sustained minor injuries and was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.

dragging death not racial, defendant says
DALLAS — The beating and dragging death of a black man in Jasper, Texas, was not a racially-motivated hate crime, said one of three white defendants in the case.
John William "Bill" King said in a written statement released to The Dallas Morning News that co-defendant Shawn Berry had drug ties to the victim. James Byrd Jr., and that Berry's "irate temper, abusive behavior and steroid use" were likely causes of the June 7 kidnapping and slaying.
"It's been prematurely concluded that this was some sort of hate crime with me implicated as the initiator, despite unsubstantial evidence. Thus overlooking facts that imply otherwise," according to King's statement, quoted in yesterday's editions of The News.
Berry had cooperated with authorities after his arrest, telling them he watched from a distance while King and Lawrence Brewer stomped and dragged Byrd from a truck.
The sevenpage statement was released by King's father over the objection of defense attorney C. Haden "Sonny" Cribs, who called the document a mistake.
But subsequent evidence, including blood found on Berry's shoes, shows he actually might have participated in the attack, authorities said after all three were indicted on a charge of capital murder.

there was accountability and representation for comprehensive information services," Crowe said. "Putting that organization in place and infusing significant dollars has made this place astonishingly different." Del Shankel, professor emeritus of molecular biosciences, said chancellors traditionally had set agendas and had found ways to fulfill those agendas.
Shankel said Chancellor Clark Wescoe wanted to build up the University's chemistry, biology and pharmacy programs and Chancellor Archie Dykes put a high priority on off-campus programs such as the Regents Center and on the University's reputation throughout the state.
Shankel, who has served as acting chancellor and executive vice chancellor, said that each chancellor made changes that would help them achieve their goals for the University.
Shankel said that the University traditionally had spent less on administration than the national average but that Hemenway's streamlined administration had saved KU money.

Odd stories come in wake
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
During the flooding in south central Kansas two weeks ago, much of the excitement for residents near Cowskin Creek in northwest Wichita came from the creek's bovine namesake.
Pamela Wyssenbach, Wichita freshman, lived with her family on the banks of the creek before she came to the University of Kansas. Although she had seen high water before, the stories she heard from her family surprised her.
"Mom and Dad said that two dead cows floated by in the creek behind our house and that a bull got out of the water and was running around the neighborhood," she said.
Wyssenbach said she knew Wichita had
received a lot of rain, but did not realize the extent of the flooding at first.
"I was watching the Weather Channel that morning, and I heard that Wichita got 71/2 inches of rain, but I forgot about it until I got an e-mail message from a family friend saying 'don't worry, your house is dry and your parents are fine,'" she said.
Wyssenbach's parents' house, which is located on a flood plain, survived the flood unscathed because it was built higher than the local building codes required.
"All the rules and regulations said we would have been able to build the house lower," she said. "But we decided to build it three feet higher.My parents moved all of the stuff in the basement upstairs just in case,but it stayed dry."
"Mom and Dad said that dead cows floated by in the behind our house and tha got out of the water and ning around the neighbor

Loan provider receives boost from U.S. Congress
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
The nation's largest provider of money for student and parent higher education loans received news from Washington last month that could allow it to expand its business.
U. S. Rep. Vince Snowbarger, R-Kan., sponsored a bill passed by Congress that will give Sallie Mae, 2000 Bluffs Drive, greater freedom to affiliate with private financial institutions.
Elaine Nelson, vice president for Kansas operations, said although Sallie Mae did not have immediate expansion plans, it requested the legislation to give it greater flexibility in the future.
"We celebrated here in Kansas because our congressman introduced the legislation," Nelson said.
She said the company tried to maintain a good relationship with the Kansas congressional delegation because Kansas was one of only four states with a regional office outside of the headquarters in Reston, Va. The Lawrence center employs 530 people.
Sallie Mae, one of Lawrence's top 10 employers, is a financial services corporation that was created in 1973 as a government-sponsored enterprise. Its purpose was to help meet the increased demand for expanded student loan programs after the Higher Education Act of 1972.
The company has grown steadily, and today its assets include 40 percent of all outstanding student loans. Sallie Mae specializes in education
lending and built its assets primarily by buying student loans from other banks.
It also provides servicing of loans to banks.
In 1997, Sallie Mae began a privatization effort with the approval of its shareholders and Congress. The bill, passed in October, removed another bureaucratic barrier on the way to Sallie Mae's transition to a fully private entity.
Despite Sallie Mae's large presence in Lawrence, the company has relatively little to do with the University of Kansas.
The University became part of the government's direct loan program three years ago. Direct lending eliminates the need for students and parents to deal with private lenders, said Diane Del Buono, director of student financial aid.
"We weren't unhappy with the old program, Sallie Mae or other community lenders," Del Buono said. "We just determined that with our high volume of loans and so many students, we could provide better service directly."
She said the University still cooperated with Sallie Mae for students who had older loans through the company.
Nelson said the Lawrence center of Sallie Mae handled loan default prevention for the entire company. With five million active student loan holders, Nelson said it was in the best interest of students and Sallie Mae to keep all loans performing.
"We find options such as deferring payments or increasing payments as a borrower's salary increases," Nelson said. "Then everybody wins."

d other students from for reports from their 30, after floods turned
cities into lakes.
After receiving between 8 and 12 inches of rain in most areas, residents of Butler. Cowley and Sedgwick counties were left to clean up and dry out.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency estimated damage costs to be about $37.5 million. As of Tuesday, nearly 1,200 people had requested financial help from the agency, a FEMA spokesperson said. More than half of those seeking help were from Butler County, while the rest were from Cowley and Sedgwick.
The worst of the damage was concentrated in those three counties, which were declared federal disaster areas last week.
Eight more Kansas counties were declared disaster areas this week. Those counties are Chase, Coffey, Franklin, Harvey, Lyon, Neosho, Sumner and Wilson.
A federal disaster declaration means low-interest loans and grants are available to repair homes and businesses.
The American Red Cross has established service centers where victims of the floods can receive supplies such as groceries, furniture, clothing, medication or money for rent.
Julie Galuszka, a Red Cross public affairs officer, said that even though students were not in the affected counties there were still ways to help the flood victims.
"The things we need most of right now are volunteers and financial aid," Galuszka said."I know it's not feasible to drive down,but one way for students to help is to get together and take a collection."
Alpha Xi Delta seeks reinstatement on campus before other sororities
Sarah Hale
ansan staff writer
Alpha Xi Delta sorority wants to carry on the chapter's tradition at the University of Kansas even though it will close down at the end of the academic year.
The chapter offered a proposal to the Panhellenic Association delegates board nearly a month ago asking to be the next sorority added to campus by 2002.
The chapter originated at the University in 1915 but closed during the Great Depression. It reopened in 1992 and will close after next semester because of low membership and financial problems.
The sorority's proposal letter addressed solutions to increase membership, such as stronger rush periods and adequate housing.
After discussion by the delegates and additional meetings, a committee of delegates offered a counterproposal Tuesday night.
"Basically it says that we will consider Alpha Xi Delta for recolonization in about five years, but we aren't guaranteeing that they will be the first sorority to be added to campus," said Libby Sigg, Panhellenic president.
THE PROPOSAL
Alpha Xi Delta proposes that it be the next sorority added to campus by 2002
A counterproposal says that Alpha Xi Delta will be considered for recolonization in about five years but that there is no guarantee it will be the next sorority added to campus
The vote will be Dec. 1
Both the original proposal and the counterproposal will be voted on Dec.1 by the newly elected 1999 officers and delegates.
At the Oct.20 delegates meeting, in which the sorority proposal was offered, members argued whether it should be accepted.
"The chapter feels that the recolonization did not give them enough of a chance to succeed," she said at the Oct. 20 meeting. "There are things that need to be improved, but remember they already have history at KU."
Sigg said that Alpha Xi Delta and the University had a special relationship.
Delegates discussed whether they should open expansion possibilities to other national chapters. Questions about membership increases also were addressed.
Wes Simons, assistant director for greek programs, told delegates at the Oct. 20 meeting that an expansion committee could be formed to discuss adding a new sorority to campus.
He also reminded members that new member classes only would have to increase by three to four people each year, even without a new sorority chapter at the University.
"I think it's smart of Alpha Xi Delta to do this now," Simons said. "They're thinking ahead and have decided that they want to return."
Michelle Galus, Alpha Xi Delta member and Nevada, Mo., senior said that she was pleased that the delegates offered a counterproposal and that she hoped the chapter could recolonize.
"I would like Alpha Xi Delta to be the first chapter added within the next five years," she said. "I think it would be a great asset to have back I really do.Nationally, we are a very strong chapter."

High school's security cameras are both unnecessary and costly
Lawrence taxpayers soon may pay to monitor more high school hallways.
Lawrence High School already has installed one camera, which it purchased last week.
Lawrence High Principal Dick Patterson said the camera cost less than $1,000, but Assistant Superintendent Craig Flegel said school board members were discussing the purchase of additional surveillance systems. He said most systems range from $12,000 to $15,000.
Why is the school district even considering the purchase and installation of such equipment? Both Patterson and Fiegl admitted that Lawrence high schools have not experienced significant vandalism, theft or other security threats.
Lawrence High employs security supervisors, and both high schools have employees who work almost 24 hours a day. Additional security measures have been taken, such as requiring visitors to check in at the office and training teachers to spot unusual activity. Some staff members carry portable
radios for communication in remote areas of the building, and each classroom is equipped with an intercom connected to the front office. Many classrooms have phones with outside lines.
Patterson maintained that the installation of a camera at Lawrence High was another preventative measure. But his decision seems to lean more toward a lavish use of discretionary funds that would be better spent on technology or other academic resources.
Not only is there no need for additional security, but a few cameras would only pacify fears, not solve the real problem. Lawrence High, for example, has 38 entryways. It would be far too expensive to monitor each entryway in addition to other parts of the building.
The lone camera in Lawrence High
does not serve much of a purpose. The camera is in plain view and covers a small area of the building. A vandal or thief could simply avoid the monitored area.
The camera, although supposedly a preventative measure, is not hooked up to a monitored television screen — it only records for later playback. If something happened, no one would be able to prevent it.
Also, most of the national incidents that set a precedent for stepped-up security at schools around the nation occurred outside the building, not inside.
Before the school district moves to purchase costly camera equipment, it should decide if the Lawrence taxpayers should pay to ineffectively monitor high-school students, or if they should pay to enhance students' educational opportunities. In a relatively safe, crime-free school district, educational funds would be put to much better use through the purchase of additional educational tools, not an elaborate surveillance system.

Glenn's mission bursts stereotypes
As NASA sent a 77-year-old astronaut into space, some wondered whether John Glenn's return to space was worthwhile. Although there were questions about sending Glenn on a space shuttle, the mission should have a positive effect on American attitudes.
Since the space shuttle Challenger exploded 73 seconds into flight in 1986, Americans have given little thought to the space program. People used to crowd around the television to watch a flight; now, they hear of it only in passing.
Sending Glenn to space sparked new interest in the space program.
It is possible that sending Glenn into
space was somewhat of a publicity stunt for NASA to capture the public's attention once again. Glenn has been an American icon since he became the first American to orbit the earth in 1962.
for the past 24 years, he certainly has more pull than others who might have been eligible.
Hopefully, Glenn will play a part in changing stereotypes and attitudes about older adults. The 77-year-old senator is an example of an older person who is healthy and productive, contradicting the stereotype of older people as ill and no longer active in society.
It also is unlikely that Glenn would have been sent into space again unless he had requested to do so. A senator
It is important for many to re-evaluate their views on the elderly. Glenn's mission and safe return and might have accomplished this.

Standard introduction.
Place name of author and
title of work here. Regur-
gitate specified statement from instructor's lecture notes. Explain broadly what will be specifically detailed in later paragraphs as preordained by the Modern Language Association hand-book purchased as a freshman.
Body paragraph quotes should be pulled from the previously underlined source material, preferably those lines reiterated by the instructor and underlined twice. Any semblance of opinion should be carefully organized along lines of thought deemed worthy by outside sources bearing instructor's approval.
Conclusions should be tidy, with fresh transitional statements preceding the final repetition of ideas expressed in previous paragraphs.
Have I made my point yet?
Have I made my job easier?
This is what college has trained me to do. I don't brush my teeth with as much efficiency as I write a paper.
Interpret a poem? O.K., are there any words repeated twice? Yes — then it's golden. 1,500 words? Do they all need to make sense? No, just make sure each sentence has at least one comma in it — got it.
Thesis statement. Check.
Proper internal documentation. Check.
Fairly scattered but not too obvious use of thesaurus. Check.
All systems go. Let's go throw back some cold ones.
Yeah, I enjoy a relaxed learning environment that encourages me to express my own ideas and individuality, just so long as I don't do it in the hallowed pages of academia.
I don't know. Maybe it's senioritis. Maybe I've spent too many hours of my life "interpreting" the works of long-dead authors who no longer have authority over their own material. Or, maybe I just want that slip of paper that says I survived 124 credit hours of the will-crushing educational system. And I'm ready to enter the work force to continue this regurgitation and reinterpretation of facts in a way that will allow me to sustain my own existence.
Yes, I am worn out with school. My eyes have glazed over the faded pages of ancient textbooks one too many times. I have put enough No. 2 pencil lead to poison a small horse upon enough scantron pages to make up a large forest. I have watched the seconds of my life tick away one at a time while some poorly coordinated individual fumbled with the many gadgets of a multimedia classroom.
And it was all for the sake of an education. All for the ability to more fully express myself, my thoughts and my opinions. All for an opportunity to take on the world with the knowledge that I am a more fully developed individual than I was four years ago. And I am.
And I am.
I don't deny that college has given me more depth of character than living with mommy and daddy ever could have. I'm ready for it to end. A point has been reached where my own education takes a back seat to my own survival in the classroom, a point where my individuality has been given up for the greater good of graduation.
I learned early that my ideas would have to be put through a blender and sprinkled sparingly across the multitude of assignments handed to professors. Although many different opinions and observations have been presented to me during the last four years, my own thoughts and interpretations have remained bottled up to pass more smoothly through the machinery of enlightenment.
This is student number 646050, and I'm ready to move on to something more.

Brazilian student learns about being a minority
I only began noticing the word "minority" recently. I had heard it many, many times in Brazil, but just really began paying attention to it when I became an
the university of Kansas. There's a good reason for that.
I did not pay too much attention to minority groups until I was part of one. Most of my best friends in Brazil were either black or from low-income families, while I had always been the bourgeois member of the group, they would say. I'm from a middle-class, white family. I finished school and went to

college — this is not typical for young Brazilians. After all, I was going to study in the United States. "How chie," everybody said
Since my first week here I have had to fill out tons of forms. All of them have the same section — race. I never know what to write down.
White? Not really. Many Americans have told me how dark my skin is, which was surprising. Brazilians have always called me "milky white."
Hispanic? Well, I don't speak Spanish
Other? That's my usual choice.
I just can't help but wonder why a country that's so worried about political correctness would continue to use these same racist forms. I am not an "other."
Don't take me wrong, sometimes the race sections of these forms are in my favor. There is always a good side to being a minority, especially in this country. The government, universities and other American institutions reserve several awards, scholarships and grants especially for minorities. This does not exist in the country I'm from. I'm glad to know many people here understand the importance of diversity.
Some people have a hard time understanding I'm here simply because the school is good. They commonly think international students use this opportunity to become immigrants. Some do, but not everyone can be classified this way.
Many of my American friends have broadened their horizons the same way I have. One of my best friends was surprised to find out it's summer in Brazil when it's winter here. "We will never have to go through winter again. Let's just hop around the countries," she said. We loved the idea.
There's always something to be learned from someone else, especially if he or she has a different cultural background.
On the other hand, "life is not always pink," as we would say in Portuguese.
When I start a conversation with an American, they always ask the same question: "So, are you planning on working here after you graduate?" I understand some people are interested in my aspirations, but the question says everything. I usually say that I want to work as a correspondent, in Brazil."
But I know people confuse my student status with that of a potential immigrant. I try to explain I'm here to study, not to make money — I actually did not have to worry about paying the rent, the water or the electricity at home. I do here and it's not fun.
The teacher of my favorite and most challenging class this semester told me: "I'm sorry, I can't understand you. Your accent is so thick." I froze for five seconds. I'm sure a lot people know the "everybody-is-looking-at-me" feeling. I repeated the question and got my answer.
It's not easy to be an international student. Whoever has studied abroad knows the feeling. But is it worth it? You bet.

Feedback
Coke, Commerce shouldn't be issues
It is time for the writers of the Kansan and other campus groups to move on. The constant berating of the University contract with Coke and Commerce Bank is uncalled for. When the Kansan's attitude toward Coke seeps its
way into the only article about homecoming, it is time to say enough is enough. When was the last time you have been in a restaurant and had a choice between Coke and Pepsi? It just doesn't happen.
This is the way of life in the United States, and the University's job is to prepare us for like outside campus. Get over
the obsession with Coke and move on to issues that can make our lives much better. Such as the campus littering problem, the hundreds if not thousands of cigarette butts that pollute Wescoe Beach, or the dilapidated state of classrooms on campus.

Intersection's safety targeted
Senate urges chancellor to fix Daisy Hill roads
By Seth Jones
Kansan staff writer
Before Student Senate even had a chance to look at a resolution about the safety of 15th Street and Engel Road, it became personal.
R. J. Woodring, Nunemaker senator, found out firsthand how dangerous the intersection could be when he was involved in a non-injury, two-car accident at 6:11 p.m. Tuesday.
The University Affairs and Student Rights committees both passed the resolution that urges the Chancellor to support a plan to improve the intersection. The intersection has the highest number of accidents of any intersection on campus, said Tom Moore, campus director of the Student Legislative Awareness Board.
"It was pretty timely when you think about it." Woodring said.
He was headed south on Engel Road toward McCollum Hall and sat at the stop sign waiting to cross the busy intersection for eight minutes, he said.
"It was dark, and the intersection was poorly lit," Woodring said. "Finally I saw an opening and I took it, but a car came over the hill and hit me in the side."
John Mullens, assistant director of security and emergency planning, said
an innovative answer was needed to solve the intersection's problems.
"This is something you can't just apply the old standards of solutions to." he said.
Mullens said that even though blasting the hill and making a tunnel and a bridge at the intersection had been suggested as a joke, it might not be too far fetched.
"It was jokingly said, but it may be seriously considered," he said. "It would eliminate the traffic of the intersection totally, and it would give pedestrians and bike riders an unobstructed path to the dorms. But you could imagine what something like that would cost."
in the finance committee, a bill to allocate $2,400 to the Kaw Valley Independent, a biweekly Lawrence publication, was ruled out of order.
A debate that went on for more than an hour raised partisanship concerns. The Kaw Valley Independent was created by Action Alliance, a registered political campus group. The newspaper is not registered with the University.
The funding requested was for printing costs
Some members of the finance committee opposed giving funds to the publication because Senate rules and regulations prohibit the funding of partisan groups.
Kip Curtis, managing editor of the publication, said that senators were missing the point in a partisan debate.
"Our paper exists so we can a) be a

place where students can learn to work for a newspaper, and b) any student can participate and have a voice," he said.
"This supports freedom of the press; students can put in whatever they want," he said. "I think this is exactly the type of thing Senate needs to support."
Joe Walberg, finance committee member, opposed the bill because he viewed the newspaper as blatantly political.
"I read the Kaw Valley Independent quite often. Overall, it's a quality publication," he said. "But I don't think it qualifies for Senate money," he said.
Police capture woman after 30-mile car chase
By Keith Burner
Kansas staff writer
Lawrence police arrested a 34-year-old Lawrence woman yesterday, following a two-county car chase that began in Bonner Squares.
Bonnar Springs police had attempted to pull the woman over about 3:30 a.m. for suspicion of driving while intoxicated, but she kept driving, police said.
She drove about 30 miles to her mother's house in Lawrence, and police followed her all the way with their lights and sirens on, said Lawrence Police Set, George Wheeler.
Wheeler said it was not a high-speed chase, just a chase in which the suspect kept driving.
After leaving Bonner Springs, police chased the woman west down Kansas Highway 32 and onto Highway 24.
The woman followed the highway to the North Lawrence exit, where she left the highway and entered Lawrence driving south.
The chase continued south down Third Street, where Lawrence police joined the chase about 4 a.m.
After crossing the Kansas River, the chase continued south down Vermont Street until Eighth Street, where the woman turned east.
Police pursued the woman down Eighth Street until Pennsylvania Street where the woman turned south. She drove south to 15th Street, where she turned east.
"The suspect got out of the car and attempted to run to the apartment. And the Bonner Springs officer tackled her, whereupon she attempted to kick out the officer's car window."
George Wheeler
Lawrence Police sergeant
She then drove to Haskell Avenue, where she drove south until she reached the 1600 block and stopped at her mother's house.
"The suspect got out of the car and attempted to run to the apartment," Wheeler said. "And the Bonner Springs officer tackled her, whereupon she attempted to kick out the officer's car window."
Police said the woman told the arresting officers that an acquaintance in Lawrence had needed the car the next day. To avoid having it impounded in Bonner Springs she drove the car to Lawrence.
Lawrence police arrested the woman and placed her into the Douglas County jail.
She was arrested for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol, reckless driving, attempting to elude a police officer and for three outstanding Douglas County warrants, jail officials said.

Clinton promotes preparation in Persian Gulf
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — President Clinton laid out his case Wednesday for a possible attack on Iraq as the Pentagon began a major buildup of American warplanes and troops in the Persian Gulf.
Allowing Saddam Hussein to flout the will of the United Nations by rejecting weapons inspections would only embolden him to act recklessly, Clinton said in a Veterans Day speech at Arlington National Cemetery.
"We continue to hope — indeed, pray — that Saddam will comply," the president said. "But we must be prepared to act if he does not."
prepared to act in the U.S. warships headed
Meanwhile, U.S. warships headed
toward the Gulf, and Defense Secretary William Cohen ordered dozens of Air Force fighters and bombers, additional Patriot airdefense missiles and 3,000 soldiers to the area, roughly doubling U.S. firepower.
"Nowhere is our vigilance more urgent than in the Persian Gulf, where Saddam Hussein's regime threatens the stability of one of the most vital regions of the world," Clinton said in a speech that suggested he was still weighing his options.
Adding to the crisis atmosphere, the State Department withdrew as many as 200 nonessential personnel and their families from embassies in Israel and Kuwait.
citing the mounting tensions since Iraq on Oct. 31 stopped cooperating with weapons inspectors of the a U.N. Special Commission. The department also suggested private U.S. citizens in Kuwait should leave.

Hussein: Refuses to allow U.N. weapons inspections of Iraq.
The United Nations withdrew several hundred weapons inspectors and other U.N. staff from Baghdad in light of the possibility of
American airstrikes. The U.N. Security Council called an emergency meeting as Secretary-General Kofi Annan appealed to Saddam to immediately resume cooperation with inspectors. Annan said he was saddened and burdened by Iraq's defiance.
The Security Council passed a resolution this week condemning Iraq's noncooperation, but it did not include an explicit go-ahead for military action. The Clinton administration contends that earlier resolutions on Iraq gave it the right to use force, although some U.N. members dispute that.
The timing of any possible U.S. action was unclear. Clinton spent the afternoon on the golf course,
and his ales said he still planned to travel to Malaysia on Saturday for a meeting of Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation nations, although that trip probably would be scrapped if airstrikes were ordered. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright put off her departure for Malaysia from today to Friday, representative James Rubin said, to give her another day in Washington to deal with the Iraq issue.
Clinton issued no explicit threat to attack Iraq but made clear he thought that failure to enforce the U.N.'s demands for arms inspections would be a costly mistake.

Israelis, Palestinians closer to agreement
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — The Israeli Cabinet narrowly ratified the peace agreement with the Palestinians yesterday after a two-week delay and some U.S. prodding, setting the stage for a troop withdrawal from 13 percent of the West Bank by the end of January.
of the west bank by the east bank. The accord was approved by eight of the 17 ministers after a seven-hour debate. Five ministers abstained and four voted against
in what appeared to be a political blow for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who had expected broader support.
P. S. R. A.
In the past two weeks, with Netanyahu postponing Cabinet debate four times, the United States urged Israel to try and stick to the original time table of the land-for-security agreement.
President Clinton spoke with Netanyahu

on Tuesday night about the deal and about the U.S. showdown with Iraq about weapons inspections.
An Israeli official said the United States had let it be known that its policy of being tough on Iraq was encountering problems in the Arab world because Israel had not moved forward on its implementation of the agreement.
Saying that it was difficult to "part with even one square centimeter" of the land, Netanyahu attached four stipulations to the agreement that could cause new disruptions.
Under one of the conditions, Netanyahu said he would bring each stage of the phased pullback during the next three months to the
Cabinet for separate approval. Ministers will be asked to determine whether the Palestinians have met their security obligations under the accord, he said.
Netanyahu also demanded that the Palestine National Council hold a formal vote by mid-December to revoke clauses in the PLO founding charter that call for Israel's destruction.
The third stipulation said Israel reserved the right to annex areas of the West Bank if Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat went ahead with plans to unilaterally declare a Palestinian state in May, at the end of the five-year autonomy period.
In a fourth clause, Netanyahu said that in an additional pullback to which Israel committed itself last year, the Palestinians would receive no more than 1 percent of the West Bank.
Despite the new conditions, Netanyahu pledged to go ahead with implementing the agreement. Israel has already fallen behind in the 12-week time table negotiated at last month's Mideast summit.
Netanyahu said he would permit the opening of the Palestinian airport next week and would also begin release Palestinian security prisoners at that time. In all, 750 Palestinians held by Israel for security offenses are to be freed by January.
bereted by January. Another key Israeli commitment, to withdraw from 2 percent of the West Bank by Monday, likely will not be carried out on time, said Netanyahu adviser David Barllan. The troop redeployment cannot take place until parliament approves the deal Tuesday and will likely be carried out a week later.
Palestinian negotiator Hassan Asfour said he believed Netanyahu attached new conditions to please Israeli hard-liners.
Impeachment inquiry will continue
Postponement of trial unlikely for president
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON Reflecting Republican divisions, Sen. Arlen Specter suggested yesterday that Congress halt the impeachment inquiry and leave President Clinton to the criminal justice system after his term ends. The leader of the inquire rejected the idea.
Specter, of Pennsylvania, told reporters he has shared his idea with Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott of Mississippi and the likely House speaker in the next Congress, Bob Livingston of Louisiana. Both were noncommittal, Specter said, adding that he would discuss his idea with
House Judiciary Committee Chair man Henry Hyde.

majority vote. If the Senate conducts a trial, a two-thirds vote would be needed for conviction — unlikely with a 55-45 GOP majority.
"I think we have a constitutional duty to perform under the law and the Constitution, and we're going to perform it." Hyde said in response to Specter's idea.
Specter — a former prosecutor — said some Republicans were searching for a way out of an unpopular impeachment effort but acknowledged his idea "is going to take some digestion." The dialogue must begin now, Specter said, because the Senate won't convict Clinton.

"I am suggesting holding the president accountable through the criminal process after his term of office expires, where he could be subject to prosecution for perjury, obstruction of justice and face the distinct possibility of a jail sentence, as contrasted with the impeachment proceedings, which I believe will come to naught," Specter told a news conference.
Scientists may have found lightless supernova
The Associated Press
Astronomers have discovered evidence that hundreds of years ago a star exploded closer to Earth than any other known supernova. They just can't figure out why no one back in the 13th century seems to have recorded the blast, which should have been a spectacular sight.
The mystery suggests, among other things, that the astronomic records are
incomplete or that scientists have come across a new celestial phenomenon: invisible supernovas.
The supernova should have appeared for a year or more as the brightest object in the night sky, except for the moon, around the year 1250.
presumably, the astronomers of the Orient should have been able to see it just above the horizon, even during the day, said Bernd Aschenbach, one of the researchers, but records
from that time are incomplete and could account for the hole in the data.
The explanation may be that the explosion of superheated gas and radiation may not have given off visible light. The new work "offers the possibility that we're looking at a new and different phenomenon," said astrophysicist Robert Petre at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
The discovery was made by scientists at the Max Planck
Institute in Germany and was reported today in the journal Nature.
The supernova revealed itself when researchers scanned the constellation Vela for invisible X-rays and gamma rays, which can be byproducts of a supernova explosion.
The astronomers found that the explosion's gas cloud is still out there and is twice as hot as the sun's core and stretches up to 25 light-years across.

The letter was received by the Kansas Area United Methodist Foundation on Monday but was not reported until Tuesday morning, said Jack Harris, the foundation's director.
The note inside the envelope read: "You have been exposed to the anthrax virus" Harris said.
Anthrax is a deadly strain of bacteria that can be used as a biological weapon. Lanza said the letter had been sent to the FBI Crime Laboratory in Washington, D.C., for examination.

The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Kan. — The Woodlands dogs and horse racing track is scheduled to be sold at an auction in federal bankruptcy court on Dec. 16.
Bankruptcy Court Judge John Flannagan approved the date and rules of the auction Tuesday at a federal court hearing in Kansas City, Kan.
Any interested party can bid on the racing track, but the only serious bidder is expected to be William Grace, owner of a riverboat casino in St. Joseph, Mo. No minimum bid will be required.
Grace heads the creditors' group that is owed money by The Woodlands, which has a debt of approximately $30 million.
Attorneys for the current owner and debtor, Sunflower Racing Inc., said they did not know whether Sunflower would submit a bid. Sunflower is a
subsidiary of the California-based Hollywood Park Inc.
The pending auction will be advertised in The Wall Street Journal, said Eric Rajala, the court-appointed trustee for The Woodlands.
Grace said he wanted to enter an agreement with the Wyandotte Indians of Oklahoma to create a gaming casino at the track. Such a plan would require that a compact be negotiated with the state of Kansas.
Gov. Bill Graves said he opposed the gaming compact because the Wyandottes were not an official Kansas-based tribe.
The Woodlands owes the Unified Government of Wyandotte County/ Kansas City, Kan., about $2 million in delinquent real estate taxes.
Unified Government officials said they supported Grace's plan to acquire the track and pursue the Indian gaming option.
Four Hutchinson men face accusations of illegal sex
The Associated Press
HUTCHINSON — One of four men accused of using drugs and alcohol to lure underage girls into having sex has pleaded guilty to indecent solicitation of a child.
Steve Scott, 24, of Hutchinson,
entered his plea Tuesday in district court after waiving his preliminary hearing. He faces up to two years and 10 months in prison.
Another man, 19-year-old Sterling L. Spence, waived his preliminary hearing on a single count of
aggravated indecent liberties with a 14-year-old girl.
Preliminary hearing dates for William Dean Carroll, 31, and Donald H. Stovall Jr., 41, were rescheduled for Dec. 11.
Carroll is charged with sodomizing or having sexual intercourse with 11 different girls between the ages of 13 and 15. The alleged acts occurred between September 1997 and May 1998.
Stovall is charged with indecent liberties and aggravated criminal sodomy with a 14-year-old girl.

It's been more than two years since telecommunications legislation was passed, designed to bring real competition to the telephone-service industry. All this time the big long-distance providers have chosen not to compete for local residential services. By doing so, they have kept Southwestern Bell out of the long-distance market.
77% of Kansans believe it's time to let Southwestern Bell compete for long distance

In a recent statewide survey, Kansas residential telephone customers were asked:"Should Southwestern Bell be allowed to compete for long distance if companies like

The overwhelming majority of Kansans — 77 percent said, "Yes, let Southwestern Bell into long distance."
allowed to compete for long distance if companies have AT&T, MCI and Sprint were allowed to serve local residential customers but chose to provide local service only to large business customers?"
Now recently, AT&T announced their intention to merge with Tele- Communication, Inc. (TCI), the nation's largest cable company. The merger would position AT&T to offer residential service to about one-third of the homes in America. We think that's great. We're ready to compete with AT&T and other providers for local and long-distance service.
In the same survey, three out of four Kansas customers said they believed competition would improve telephone prices and services more readily than regulation. And 80 percent said they would like to have the option of buying both local and long-distance service from a single provider.
Kansas telephone customers want the benefits of real competition. It's time to allow Southwestern Bell to compete for long-distance service in Kansas. That's why we're challenging the big long-distance companies to "Meet us in the marketplace. Now."

Prime-time soaps test viewer loyalty
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Wednesday nights have been heating up this season. Sex, drugs, scandal — the only problem is which channel to choose.
The 7 p.m. slot on Wednesday night television is a gold mine for the youth market. On Fox, viewers can watch Kelly, Donna and cohorts as they fight the battles of the wild world of Beverly Hills with only their gold cards as weapons.
For those who have tired of the Beverly Hills 90210 antics and think it's time for Tori Spelling to get a real job, the WB offers Dawson's Creek, where the four main characters suffer through high school sex scandals
in a charming New England setting.
In bringing New England setting. Neither of the shows have made the top 20 in recent Nielsen ratings, but walk through the University of Kansas campus Thursday morning and you'll surely hear gossip pertaining to the wacky lives of our Wednesday night TV buddies. Are these shows cheery? Many would say yes. But are they fun? Just ask the fans.
Mariana Hinosajo, Hutchinson junior, said she preferred Dawson's Creek because it was more realistic than 90210.
"20210 is too much of a mix-up," she said. "Everyone sleeps with everyone. Everyone's recycled a boyfriend."

Hinojosa said that Dawson's Creek

"Someone needs to get married and have children to make it more realistic," she said.
Jenni Lord, Greeley, Colo., Junior,
said that she used to watch both
shows last year but that she chose
Dawson's Creek when the networks
put the shows head-to-head.
"It it seems like 90210 has the same story plot going on," she said. "I was really upset that Brandon left the show so I'm stuck on Dawson's now."
Not all KU students have been seduced by the new scandals of Dawson's Creek, however.

Dawson's Creek star rides wave of fame
By David Bauder The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Unlike thousands of other 18-year-old girls, Michelle Wilson isn't obsessed with *Dawson's Creek*. She saw the first episode of the WB's popular teen drama last January but that was it. No more.
That's a little odd considering that Williams is in *Dawson's Creek* every week, playing the sultry bad girl Jennifer Lindley.
Enough people watch the show that Williams — and co-stars James Van Der Beek, Katie Holmes and Joshua Jackson — are the lat
est teen dreams. It's a life-altering experience few can prepare for.
The quick-witted Williams seems better suited for the ride than most 18-year-olds. She is already three years beyond her high school graduation. She earned her diploma largely through correspondence courses, allowing her to pursue an acting career that quickly progressed beyond the fabric softener commercials of her childhood.
She insists she is more comfortable talking to people twice her age than her fellow teen-agers. She is 18 going on 30.
Other times, Williams seems reassuringly young. She older ages
people because they're no threat; kids her own age can trigger kneecocking, tongue-twisting bouts of fear. And she can't stand to read fan mail because the slightest remark — about her shorter hair, or the shape of her nose — will send her to a mirror in panic.
During her summer off from Dawson's Creek, Williams joined the stampede of teen TV stars to movie sets. She acted opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in *Halloween*: H20 and in the upcoming comedy, *Dick*.
There was a lot of competition among the actors to make best use of the summer break, Williams says.
"But you can't just give in to it and choose the wrong product just because you want to work so bad," she says. "I'm slowly starting to learn that it is better to sit back, choose the right thing, take your time and don't give in to that pressure. Otherwise, you could be making Leprechaun 4."
There was a distinctly different atmosphere when the cast returned to Wilmington, N.C., for filming this fall. These weren't four unknowns taken on the world anymore. They've all logged time on magazine covers, and security guards were hired to keep the fans at bay.
'Oklahoma!' stakes claim to modern audience
By Mariana Paiva
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
The Rodgers and Hammerstein musical, directed by John Staniunas, will open at 8 p.m. tonight in the Crafton-Fraymore Theatre.
The University Theatre performance of "Oklahoma!" is so elaborate that it required more than 100 students to bring it to the stage.
THE BROADWAY THEATRE OF LONDON
The production — the University's biggest production of the year — includes cowboys, dancers and a 27-piece orchestra.
He said that he tried to make the musical — which was first performed in 1943 — appealing to a 1998 audience.
Stanianus, assistant professor of theater and film, said that he never had been part of an "Okla-homai!" production before and that he chose to do it because it was an important piece of American musical theater history.
Summer Mayse, Lenexa senior, said her character in the University Theatre production, Laurie, was different from the original Laurie.
"We found a great deal in the show just about being human, about understanding what kind of sacrifices people had to make in order for this country to become what it is today," she said. "The road is really hard, and you have

Mayse said that it was hard for
her to change her character's traditional image.
"I always thought about her as this conventional girl," she said. "But my character is different. She has the head on her shoulders, she is smart and she is not afraid to get dirty and play games."
"Oklahomaal" is the story of Laurie and Curly, who can't admit their affection for each other, and of Ado Annie and Will, who can. When Jud, the unsavory hired hand, shows an interest in Laurie, Curly stakes his claim and plans to wed her. Jud tries to kill Curly but is accidentally killed with his own knife. A quick trial follows, and Curly is acquitted so he and Laurie can begin their life together.
together.
"In the original version of 'Oklahoma' Jud frightens her because he is mean." Mayse said. "In this performance Jud is more passionate, and that is what scares her."
Jerel Hilding, associate professor of music and dance, choreographed the dream ballet sequence. The dance illustrates Laurie's dilemma, and it depicts several scenes from her past and possible future.
Heather Schunk, disabilities specialist for the Services for Students with Disabilities office, and Jaime Nickels, free-lance interpreter, will interpret the Nov. 20 performance in sign language.
Schunk said that she had prepared to interpret "Oklahoma" by listening to the musical's soundtrack and reading the script care
fully.
"Some people think that musicals are the most difficult dramatic event to interpret, but I really enjoy interpreting them,"
she said.
Tickets for the musical cost $8 for students, $16 for public and $15 for senior citizens and are available at the KU box office.
Commentary
I Still Know proves a complete bust
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
In any movie this year is going to be critic-proof, the smart money should be on I Still Know What You Did Lest Summer.
This is one of those horror movies that the background music blares every few seconds, reminding the audience that they're supposed to be scared. The hook-wielding killer is a guy who trudges along as though he has bricks in his shoes, and the teen-age protagonists never think to run in the opposite direction when he comes a-slicing.
As though the wall-to-wall bloodletting is not enough, the heroine (Jennifer Love Hewitt) spends practically the entire movie in a skin-tight tank top, which serves no purpose except to call attention to her bra size.
Of course, these very same elements helped this movie's predecessor, I Know What You Did Last Summer, gross $72 million in ticket sales. And the only thing that movie had going for it was that its villain had a penchant for lily-white teen-agers who looked like Tiger Beat models.
In case you missed the original, here's a refresher: Julie James (Hewitt) and her pals drove their car over a deranged fisherman named Ben Willis and then hid his body to avoid manslaughter charges. But the guy wasn't dead, and he proceeded to gut and main Julie's over-pampered friends as though they were freshly caught salmon.

I shouldn't have to say that the film's acting is less than stellar. Hewitt may be an above average TV star, but her sole purpose here is to provide hormone-arousing shots of her, um, assets. Director Danny Cannon is so in love with his star's chest that he frames each scene around it. It's like playing a round of "Where's Waldo", except here it's "Where's Jennifer."

Students design memorial for Kansas City jazz great
Some KU students who may not play a single note of music have gotten their chance to create in the memory of jazz great Charlie Parker.
Architecture students, under the supervision of Stephen Grabow, professor of architecture, have submitted projects for a Parker memorial to a committee established by KAW Valley Arts and Humanities Inc.
Grabow said that this project was good for the students and a project that generated public good will.
The site of the memorial for the saxophonist, who was born in Kansas City, Kan., is three blocks from his birthplace at Big Eleven Lake.
"The idea was kicked around by the community," said Pat Lowry, editor of Ingram' Magazine and member of the committee. "The main reason we're doing this project is because we was born in Kansas City, Kan., and there is nothing in town to acknowledge that."
The students' design ideas ranged from sculptures, bridges across the lake, walkways and fountains.
"In the middle of the lake, I had a sculpture," she said. "When the wind blew, it made music in the park."
Another student also wanted to keep the jazz theme alive.
"Mine was a cityscape," said Jessica Vogel, Minnetonka, Minn., junior. "I recreated the urban atmosphere of when jazz was popular. I created more of a backdrop that would light up because jazz concerts were held mostly at night."
Lowry said that the committee had not chosen a design for the memorial but that they wanted to incorporate elements from all the designs.
"I just hope that it gets built," Vogel said. "I think it is a good project worth investing in."
"Dick Wright was nice enough to talk and give us information about Charlie Parker," said Jessica Dunn, Belton, Mo., junior. "It got us motivated."

Unknown Jayhawks refreshing
For the past three years, the Kansas Jayhawks basketball team has been a proven commodity. Fans knew what to expect from Roy's teams.
Wins. And lots of them.
With some of the best players in Kansas history, Roy's boys steamrolled through the Big 12 Conference with
unprecedented dominance. Every season, his Jayhawks towered near the top of the national rankings. His players found their names on All-American lists and then on NBA rosters. But there wasn't much surprise in Lawrence. Kane expected
PLEASE ADD A PHOTO. NO TEXTS OR IMAGES WERE MADE.

It was seen all the players, we knew what they were capa-
one of and we knew they were going to execute. They always did — almost.
Jacque Vaughn, the consummate court leader, was going to make the perfect pass. Raef LaFrentz, with his precision post moves, was going to pour in plenty of points. And Paul Pierce, moving effortlessly around defenders with his long, swooping arms, was going to make a ritual of embarrassing his opponents.
At the start of every season, two words seemed to linger in the mind of Jayhawk fans: National Championship. The question wasn't if they were going to make it to the Final Four, it was how many times?
This was the norm. This was expected. But things are different down at Allen Field House this season.
Success? Of course. But how much?
How far?
For the first time in three years, there are legitimate questions and concerns surrounding the team. There is an overwhelming curiosity to see this year's squad play its first real game. No one seems quite sure what to expect.
Jayhawk fans now find themselves in a refreshingly new scenario: more questions, less expectations.
As the season wears on, many of those questions will be answered, while others may linger. But, with two exhibition games under their belt, the Jayhawks have given us some early clues. First off, Jeff Boschee can handle the rock. It didn't take long to figure that out.
Going into the season, there were questions whether he could handle the responsibility of running the team. Not many true freshman start at point guard — especially at a program of Kansas' caliber. But Boschee looks poised running the show, and his shot is already much smoother than Vaughn's — the last true freshman to start at point for Roy. Boschee could be one of those rare players that starts from his first game until his last.
The next best early indicator is that Kenny Gregory's back appears healthy. More explosive than last year, Gregory looks great on the court where he has used his athletic ability to crash the boards. The 6-5 forward will be in charge of picking up most of Pierce's scoring and providing plenty of help in the rebounding department.
But the key to the season could very well lie in the hands of sophomore center Eric Chenowith. Bigger than last year and with more experience, Chenowith looks confident around the basket. His post moves are solid and his added bulk will help. On the nights when the rest of the team is struggling to find offense, Chenowith has to be the man who takes charge.
The ingredients are there.
Rattiff is an Norman, Okla., senior in journalism.
This Jayhawk team is solid at almost every position, and when healthy, they will have the deepest roster in the conference. The one real question that remains is how they will mesh as the season progresses.
If they do it well, Kansas fans might be in for a nice surprise come next March. And that would be something unexpected.

Mission accomplished—sort of.
Mission at comparison.
After its first exhibition game last Wednesday, the Kansas women's basketball team pointed to team defense as the biggest need for improvement. The Jayhawks did that in dismantling Latvia-Club Riga 95-61 in its second and final exhibition game last night at Allen Field House.
Kansas held the Latvians to 37 percent shooting and forced 26 turnovers, but coach Marian Washington wasn't satisfied.
"I saw a little bit of improvement in our team defense, but it's obviously something that we still need to work on," she said.
Senior Nakia Sanford led the Jayhawks with 22 points in just 17 minutes of action. Half of her points came in the first 3:34 after halftime.
"She's playing with some confidence, and that's something we've got to see this season." Washington said. "Nakia had her shots last year, but she struggled to finish them. She's finishing now."
She was a perfect 8 of 8 from the floor and 6 of 8 from the free-throw line but said Latvia did not guard her well.

would think they should
Latvia shot 29 3-point shots. It also registered 27 fouls, leading to 34 Kansas free throws.
Latvia played a zone defense.
"They're just kind of unorthodox," Sanford said. "They were shooting shots you wouldn't think they'd shoot."
"That helped us as far as running our offense." Sappford said.
The Jayhawks shot 54 percent from the floor, out-rebounded the Latvians 46-20.
had 20 assists on their 33 field goals and made 14 steals.
preseason Big 12 Player of the Year Lynn Pride had a bad shooting night but still managed to contribute 10 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two steals. Pride missed her first seven shots and ended the night3 for 11 from the floor.
She said, "Some of the shots she usually makes she wasn't making tonight, but that's going to happen sometimes."
Exactly, Pridesaid.
"This game, knowing it doesn't really count, I didn't walk away with too much of a grudge," she said. "I tried to find other ways to contribute — do more on defense, that kind of thing."
Fourteen Jayhawks played last night, 13 of whom were on the floor before the 10-minute mark in the first half.
Even recently added walk-on Ali Brox got in the game with about two minutes left.
"That was good to see," Washington said. "It was good to get everybody out there and play."
Washington said that trend likely wouldn't continue.
"Once we get into conference play, we're going to play the ones I have confidence in." Washington said.
Those players are starters Pride, Sanford, Jaclyn Johnson, Suzi Raymont and Jennifer Jackson, along with Casey Pruitt, Shandy Robbins and Brooke Reve

Kansas center Nakia Sanford was on fire last night despite a nasty chest cold that limited her to only 17 minutes of playing time. The 6-3 senior scorched Latvia for a career-high 22 points and shot a perfect eight-for-eight from the field to lead the Jayhawks to a 95-61 victory.
"I couldn't even really breathe out there," Sanford said. "I just went out and tried to play as long and hard as I could."
Although she played less than half of the game, Sanford outmuscled and out-hustied Latvia's interior players when she was on the floor.
"She did great," Robbins said.
"I think it has to do a lot of confidence," Sanford said. "I've gotten more aggressive on offense. I've been wanting the ball more inside and my teammates have gotten it to me."
Kansas senior guard Shandy Robbins said that her teammate had improved her game immensely from last season.
"She's coming out ready to play every game, and she's scoring more for us now, which is something we really need."
"She's 20 pounds heavier this season, and it's going to be tough to stop her inside," Washington said. "She's also very agile for her size and her confidence just keeps developing
Kansas coach Marian Washington agreed with Robbins and said that Sanford's size had helped her improve her game this year.
Sanford said that she was trying to develop the ability to produce big numbers in every game.
“It's my last year so I'm looking to be more consistent than in the past,” Sanford said. If she can play like she did last night for the entire season there is no telling what Kansas might achieve.
"We're really fired up about this season," Robbins said. "It's our last year so we want to go out with a bang. We don't want to have any excuses. We are going to go all-out and just see what happens."

Two Kansas recruits sign letters of intent
Other prospect held up by Iowa snowstorm should commit today
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Two of Kansas' three recruits signed letters of intent yesterday, and the third was expected to sign today — that is if his letter could make it through an Iowa snowstorm.
Yesterday was the first day of the early signing period for the 1999-2000 freshman class, and Kansas coach Roy Williams said he had received word that two recruits signed their letters.
Andrew Gooden and Nick Collison signed letters agreeing to play for Kansas next season.
Iowan Kirk Hinrich planned to sign a
national letter of intent to play for the Jayhawks next season but could be hindered by a snowstorm that has struck Iowa.
"He plans on signing," said Jim Hinrich, Kirk's father and high school basketball coach, yesterday afternoon. "We have a snowstorm here and did not get (the letter) delivered yet."
Hinrich, a 5-foot-3 point guard from Sioux City, Iowa, averaged 18.3 points per game and shot 61 percent from the field for West High School. He attended Late Night with Roy Williams Oct. 16 and plans to attend six games or more this season in Lawrence, his father said.
The early signing period gives players a chance to concentrate on their senior seasons without the pressure of trying to decide where to play college basketball. This was true for Kirk Hinrich.
"It takes off a lot of pressure," Jim Hinrich said. "He's excited about the early signing period and getting it out of the

way.
Collison, a 6-foot-9 forward from Iowa Falls, Iowa, could be the most highly touted recruit of the three. He enters his senior season at Iowa Falls High School ranked as the No. 2 player in the country by recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons.
Williams said Kansas had not received the letters yet so he could not comment officially about the players. He did say,
Gooden, a 6-foot-10 forward from El Cerrito, Calif., signed a letter of intent with Kansas yesterday as well. Last season, Gooden averaged 17 points and 13 rebounds for El Cerrito High School, leading the team to a 26-7 record. He emerged as a top recruit at this summer's Adidas abc camp in New Jersey, where he was on the camp's all-star team.
wav."
though, that he felt good about the two letters that had been signed.
In other basketball news:
"T.J. did post moves with the trainer over on the side Monday." Williams said. "I was surprised at how he looked, and he went through the 20 minute stretching program the kids go through before practice. That's a little bit quicker than I anticipated."
■ Those teams are looking up for the Jayhawks on the injury front. Senior T.J. Pugh, senior forward, is ahead of schedule for his recovery.
Williams did not expect Pugh to be ready for tomorrow's game but did not expect it to take the projected four weeks for him to recover. Sigg said that the counterproposal was drafted to address these plus additional issues:
Former Jayhawks Paul Pierce, Raef LaFrentz and Jacque Vaughn will be at football's game. The three will be inducted into Kansas' basketball hall of fame.

Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
Your workload continues to be demanding and mistakes are likely to creep in. Although you insist on having everything perfect, you must allow for changes and modifications as you go along. Don't beat yourself up if things aren't right the first time. don't. Just put in the correction.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 6.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are 6'7.

Two people.
2
The studying you are doing today and tomorrow has to do with finances. You'd rather have the money take care of itself and simply show up when it's needed. This is possible, but to make it happen, you're going to have to do a little homework. That's your assignment for today.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 5.

Looks like there are still more details to be dealt with.
Well, guess what? You don't have to do this all by yourself. Delegate some organizational tasks to a person who's good at that, then just do as you're told. This is a brilliant way to stay in control, while appearing to give control to somebody else. Relax and enjoy it.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE Preseason Basketball Preview Cyclone's new coach steps up to challenge
BIG 12 CONFERENCE Preseason Basketball Preview
By Kevin C. Wilson Associate sports editor
The new Iowa State men's basketball coach Larry Eustachy insists that he is not intimidated by replacing the Cyclone's successful former coach, Tim Floyd.
After guiding Iowa State to a disappointing 12-18 record last season, Floyd left Ames to become the head coach of the Chicago Bulls. But before last year's subpar season, Floyd had helped lead the Cyclone's to three straight NCAA Tournament's and had advanced past the first round in all three.
Eustachy said that he remained optimistic despite the daunting expectations that face him in his first season.
I have no anxiety — except that I don't want to fail," Eustachy said. "The pressure of this career enters other people's minds much more than mine. I enjoy it, to be honest, so as far as expectations go, I don't mind it."
Eustachy arrived in Ames after compiling an impressive 98-53 record in five sea
sons at Utah State. He was named the 1998 Big West Conference Coach of the Year after leading the Aggies to a 25-8 record and had amassed 20 wins or more in three of his five seasons at Utah State. In his
eight years as a head coach, three at Idaho, Eustachy has never had a losing record, but he admits that this season might be the first.
"The measuring stick cannot be wins and losses," Eustachy said. "Particularly with the foundation we are trying to lay with this team. You can play your best games and

not win. We will play good quality basketball with eight or nine players who give us the best chance to win."
Iowa State returns four starters, 77.1 per
cent of their scoring and 85.4 percent of their rebounding from last year's team. In addition to the eight returning letter winners, Eustachy has six newcomers to choose from this season and said that everyone has a chance to play.
"I tried not to prejudice this team," Eustachy said. "I just wanted to be as open-minded as possible. I wanted them all to know that when practice started, they were all on an even level."
As much as Eustachy might want his team to believe in the equal opportunity, some Cyclones already have made names for themselves in the Big 12.
Sophomore forward Marcus Fizer, last season's Big 12 Freshman of the Year, appears ready to dominate the conference this season after averaging a team-high 14.9 points and grabbing 6.7 rebounds per game. The 6-foot-8 forward was a third-season All-Big 12 selection by the league's coaches and was named Iowa State's most valuable player last season.
Apparently the coaches believe his game will continue to blossom because they
named him to the preseason All-Big 12 first team.
Senior Klay Edwards joins Fizer in the front court and provides the Cyclones with tenacious rebounding, timely scoring and most of all consistency. Edwards ranked sixth in the Big 12 in rebounding with 7.7 per game and was the teams' second leading scorer, with 9.3 points per game. The 6-9 center also has played in every Iowa State game for the past three seasons.
Other Cyclones expected to contribute to the Iowa State attack this season include forwards Paul Shirley and Stevie Johnson. Shirley, a 6-10 junior, ranked third on the team in scoring with 8.1 points per game and managed to pull down 6.0 rebounds per game last season. Johnson, a 6-5 junior, contributed 7.2 points and 3.7 rebounds per game last season.
Sophomore point guard Lee Love said that despite adjusting to a new coach everyone was dedicated to making this season a success.
"Coach Eustachy is very demanding," Love said. "We have been working hard and challenging one another everyday."
Iowa State will look to youngsters for success
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Normally, when a team's roster features more newcomers than returners, rebuilding is the focus of the season.
But not at Iowa State this season, where the women's basketball team's returning talent is enough to include the Cyclones in both the USA Today/ESPN poll (No. 25) and the Associated Press poll (tied for No. 22).
Picked to finish fourth in the preseason Big 12 Coaches Poll and third in the preseason Big 12 Media Poll, the Cyclones have seven newcomers — one junior college transfer and six freshmen. But that doesn't mean the team doesn't expect to have success immediately.
"I don't want to use having a lot of freshmen as an excuse to not play well," said fourth-year coach Bill Fennelly. "We believe in them, we brought them in for a reason."
Who can blame Fennelyl for his confidence in the rookies? Two newcomers — Stacy Frese and Megan Taylor — teamed up in the backcourt last season for Iowa State and were named Big 12 Newcomer and Freshman of the Year last year, respectively.
"We have two of the best guards not only in this conference, but in the country," said Fennelly. "I wouldn't trade either of them for anybody."
Fresse played last season after transferring from rival Iowa and made an immediate impact at Iowa State. A first team All-Big 12 selection last season, Freese led the conference in assists (5.8 per game) and three-point field goal accuracy (45.7 percent).

Freshman Tracy Gahan has been particularly impressive in early season practices, and Fennelly said that the 6-foot-1 Gahan may start this season for the Cyclones.
"I'mn't that the way it goes?" Fennelly said. "We get all excited because we get someone 6-2, 6-3, and K-State gets someone 6-6."
"She's got a beautiful jump shot," Pennylly said. "If you were going to make an instructional video on shooting, you'd want to tape Tracy Gahan's jump shot."
Fennelly also said Welle and the 6-foot-3 Alyssa Shriver were possible starters.

'Hawks seek win against ranked Texas

The rematch between the Kansas volleyball team and No.12 Texas begins at 7:30 tonight in Allen Field House — and the Jayhawks have their work cut out for them.
been swept in every match but one.
kanked opponents have been troublesome for Kansas all season. The Jayhawks are 0-8 against teams ranked in the Top 25 and have
Coach Ray Bechard said that his team was looking for a breakthrough win.
"We've won all the matches we were expected to win." Bechard said. "Wejust
have to beat a team that is highly regarded." Bechard said that his team would have to focus on its own strengths against a team such as Texas.
"We tell our team that physically, they'll make plays we can't control," Bechard said. "Physically, Texas and Nebraska are in a league of their own. But it's got to be a situation where we try to keep their net impact from dominating the match. We need to play a little quicker, and make their bigger players rush a little bit. We have to get the ball into the seams."
The Longhorns are 19-3 overall, and 13-1 in the Big 12 Conference. The only conference loss that Texas has suffered occurred Oct. 16 against undefeated Nebraska.
Earlier this season, the Longhorns swept the Jayhawks in three games 15-4, 15-3 and 15-7. No one from Kansas reached double figures in kills, but both Erin Aldrich and Katie Austin collected 1 kills aplace to pace Texas.
Bechard said that the Jayhawks had two of their best practices of the season this week, after two disappointing sweeps last weekend.
"(Last) Saturday was a disappointment," Bechard said. "But we came in Monday and had one of the best practices we've had all season. So I don't think we're just coasting at all."

KSU's Bishop to say goodbye
Quarterback seeks defeat of Nebraska at last home game
MANHATTAN — Fewer than 14 months ago, Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop made his debut at home.

The Associated Press
Now, he's already preparing to step onto the field at KSU Stadium for the final time when No. 2 Kansas State (9-0, 6-0 in Big 12) plays No. 11 Nebraska (8-2, 4-2) on Saturday.

GUIMING 58
Bishop's run with the Wildcats has been quick: He transferred from Blinn (Texas) Community College and didn't redshift. Despite the brevity of his stay, though, he's produced results that will be remembered at Kansas State for years to come.
When he arrived, the Wildcats were the third-best team in the Big 12 North, trying to shake off Colorado and Nebraska.
But he led Kansas State to two victories against the Buffaloes, a team the Wildcats hadn't beaten since 1984. when Bishop was a second-grader. And on Saturday, a Kansas
State victory against the Cornhuskers would not only end a 30-year drought for the Wildcats, but give them legitimate national title hopes as well.
"Last year, we made a decision whether we would redshirt Michael Bishop or not, and I think that probably was the defining factor that we would have a chance to be a pretty good football team this year," Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said.
So far, the Wildcats have been better than pretty good behind Bishop. Kansas State is off to the first 9-1 start in school history. Last year, the Wildcats played their first ever 11-win season.
Bishop has a 44-1 record as a starter in college, losing only to Nebraska last year.
"He's the kind of guy who just wants to go, go, go. He can't stand being stopped. He's a winner," wide receiver Gavin Peries said.
His list of accomplishments reads as long as a career criminal's rap sheet.
He's Kansas State's all-time leading rushing quarterback. He holds the school record for total offense in a game. He's a candidate for the Davey O'Brien Award and the Heisman Trophy. He's led the Wildcats to a school-record with 17 consecutive
wins. He has rushed for more touchdowns than any other quarterback in Kansas State history.
"I have never played with a player or seen an athlete that wants to win as bad as he does," offensive guard Jeremy Martin said. "His emotion is tremendous. It's a tremendous uplift
for this team
Now, Bishop has the chance to atone for last year's loss to the Cornhuskers and push his record to 45-1.
"That was the only game he's lost in his college career," free safety Lamar Chapman said. "It would be good if he would get a victory this week."
Students role dice on sporting events
The Associated Press
LAS VEGAS — Point-shaving scandals, college athletes betting on games in which they're playing, a gambling panel learned that these and other sports related gambling incidents are on the rise.
William Saum, a representative of the National Collegiate Athletic Association, told the National Gambling Impact Study Commission on Tuesday that students could easily find illegal bookies on campus.
The commission was formed by Congress to study the social and economic impact of gambling on the nation.
The panel also heard from sportscaster Bob Costas, who told of learning sports at an early age from his father, a compulsive gambler.
And Mitzl Schlicchter told how her former husband, quarterback Art Schliccher, went from fame to infamy because of crimes committed to feed a voracious sports gambling habit.
"The NCAA is opposed to legal and illegal sports wagering. But if we're going to have legal sports betting, let's keep it in Nevada."
William Saum
NCAA representative
Commissioners were told that legal sports betting in Nevada draws $2.4 billion a year, while illegal sports betting runs at anywhere from $80 billion to $80 billion annually. Nevada is the only state where betting on sports events is legal.
Saum said incidents involving gambling had been reported with growing frequency the past three years, including:
A point-shaving scam at Arizona State University.
A point-shaving scandal at Northwestern University;
Bettin on college sports events by Maryland players:and
A large sports gambling ring was operating, in part, out of a Columbia University fraternity house.
A recent University of Cincinnati NCAA-sponsored study randomly surveyed 2,000 male student athletes in Division I basketball and football programs. The survey found that more than 25 percent of the athletes reported gambling on college sporting events other than their own while in college, and 4 percent said they wagered on games in which they had played. Saum said.
Commission member James Dobson asked Saum if the NCAA differentiated between legal and illegal sports betting.
"The NCAA is opposed to legal and illegal sports wagering." Saum replied. "But if we're going to have legal sports betting, let's keep it in Nevada. We would jump to our foot if it were to expand outside Nevada."
Tennessee Volunteers accept No.1 ranking with caution, pride
The Associated Press
"I know the team feels the same as I do," he said Tuesday as the No. 1 Volunteers (8-0, 5-0) prepared for Saturday's visit from No. 10 Arkansas (8-0, 5-0).
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer is determined to stomp out complacency in his lifetime. Actually, he would like to have it done by Saturday.
"We're pleased but not satisfied.
There's still a lot to do out there."
Fulmer and his players are all dealing with being the nation's N.1 team for the first time in their lives. It might be a habit in some corners of the college football world, but it’s a rarity in Knoxville.
Fulmer wants to make sure his players don't think they've already
won something and start congratulating themselves.
"I don't think this needs to be said, but Arkansas is a really fine team on both sides of the ball," he said.
The Vols and their faithful would rather not wait another 42 years to be in the top spot again.
Tennessee is No. 1 for the first time since 1956. That year, it lasted for one week even though the Vols won the rest of their regular season games.
"From a personal standpoint, a prideful standpoint, yes. it's enjoyable." Fulmer said. "But as far as spending any time thinking about it, or taking extra phone calls or anything like that, no. We've just done our thing. We have a good routine, we've had it for a long time. We just don't get out of it."
Badgers prepare for showdown with Michigan,hoping for 10-0
The Associated Press
But that's exactly coach Barry Alvarez's message this week as the Badgers (9-0, 6-0 Big Ten), off to their best start since 1901, go for their first Rose Bowl appearance in five seasons.
MADISON, Wis. — It's hard to ignore the Michigan mystique when teams look up and see more than 110,000 screaming fans and the maize-and-blue uniforms and helmets across the line.
"You try to educate them about not being intimidated, not worrying about that funny helmet across the line from them," said Alvarez, whose Badgers have never gone 10-0 in a season.
It won't be easy. No. 15 Michigan has won seven straight after two losses at the beginning of the year ruined their hopes of repeating as national champs. They also have won 15 straight Big Ten games, including 27-0 against then N. 9 Penn State last weekend.
The last time the Badgers played at Ann Arbor, they upset the Wolverines 31-19. Wisconsin's first victory there since 1962. The teams didn't play the next two seasons and Michigan held
onto its No. 1 ranking last season with a hard-earned 26-16 victory at Camp Randall Stadium.
If Wisconsin wins, the Badgers would claim a trip to Pasadena for the first time since they went 10-1-1 in 1993, their only 10-victory season ever. If they lose, they must beat Penn State at home next week and hope Ohio State beats Michigan.
Alvarez addressed the game's significance Monday morning — right after he met with his team and told them not to let quarterback Mike Samuel's arrest on a battery charge Saturday night distract from their preparations this week.
So, Alvarez' advice is to ignore the Michigan tradition and enjoy the thrill of playing in the biggest game of their lives.
Of the Badgers' nine opponents so far, only Purdue (6-4) and San Diego State (5-4) have a winning record. But the Badgers are scoring 34.4 points a game and winning by an average of 25.3 points. Only three teams have scored more than seven points against their defense, which ranks in the top five nationally in total yards, rushing yards and points allowed.

Dierker selected Manager of Year

NEW YORK—Larry Dierker won the NL Manager of the Year award yesterday after leading the Houston Astros to a team-record 102 wins and their second straight division title.

and 70 points, followed by Chicago's Jim Riggleman, who got five firsts and 55 points, and San Francisco's Dusty Baker with the other six first-place votes and 39 points.
Dierker came out of the broadcast booth to manage the Astros in 1997 and led the team to 84 wins and their first division title in 11 years. The Astros built on that success this year.
improving by 18 games and tied for third best in baseball, and won the NL Central again.
In the regular season, the Astros led the league in runs scored and RBL and were second in batting average. The pitching staff had the second-best ERA in the NL.
But once again the Astros faltered in the first round of the playoffs, losing in four games to the Padres. Houston was swept by Atlanta in 1997. The voting, however, was conducted before the playoffs.
bocchy and Riggleman led their teams to 22-game turnovers, the biggest in baseball this season. The Padres won a team-record 98 games and their second NL West title in three years.
Riggleman took the lovable loser Cubs to the playoffs for just the third time since 1945, beating Baker's Giants in a one-game playoff to win the wild-card berth.
Bochy won the award in 1996, when he took the Padres to the NL. West title in his second year in San Diego. Last year Dierker finished third, behind Baker and Pittsburgh's Gene Lamont.
New York's Joe Torre is the overwhelming favorite to win the AL Manager of the Year, which will be announced today.
Detroit Tigers snag Palmer from Royals
The Detroit Tigers signed their first significant free agent in years, agreeing yesterday to a $36 million, five-year contract with Dean Palmer.
Palmer, who turns 30 next month, hit 278 this year for Kansas City, leading the Royals in both homers (34) and RBI (119). He was acquired by Kansas City from Texas on July 25, 1997, for Tom Goodwin.
Palmer, who made $ 7.5 million this season, turned down a $ 4.75 million player option and became a free agent following the World Series. He gets a $10 million signing bonus that is payable over five years, $3 million in 1999, $5 million in 2000, $5.5 million in 2001, $5 million in 2002 and $6.5 million in 2003.
Detroit also made an offer to Ken Caminiati, another free-agent third baseman, but he turned it down. The Tigers, getting ready to move into a new ballpark in 2000, have said they planned to upgrade their payroll next season in an effort to get competitive before the move.
The Tigers were last in the AL Central this season at 65-97, 24 games behind first-place Cleveland. They have had five straight losing seasons for the first time in their history.

Dodgers trade hitter for Mets pitcher
Bonilla goes to N.Y.; Rojas heads to L.A.
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — The Los Angeles Dodgers, seeking to bolster their bulpen and give themselves financial flexibility, traded third baseman Bobby Bonilla to the New York Mets yesterday for right-hander Mel Rojas and cash.
The switch-hitting Bonilla, hampered by injuries last year, batted 249 with 11 home runs and 45 RBI
in 100 games following off-season surgery on his left wrist and left Achilles' tendon.
Bonilla was traded to the Dodgers on May 15 along
with Gary Sheffield,
Charles Johnson and Jim Eisenreich and a minor league pitcher for Mike Piazza and Todd Zeile
as part of the Florida Marlins' pay-roll purge.
Piazza was traded to the Mets a
week later and recently signed a $91 million, seven-year contract with them.
Bonilla, 35, played for the Mets for 31/2 years before being traded to the Baltimore Orioles midway through the 1995 season. He is under contract for two more years at $5.9 million per season.
Rolias, who turns 32 next month,
was a major disappointment for the
Mets last year, going 5-2 with a 6.05
ERA and two saves in 50 games. He is

Bonilla has 273 homers in his big-league career, hitting a career-best 34 for the Mets in 1994.

Reggie White silenced by Pittsburgh tackle
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers tackle Jamain Stephens knew he was neutralizing Green Bay Packers star Reggie White because White wasn't talking to him.
Stephens, making only his fifth career start, called him Mr. White. That might have been the only respect that Stephens showed one of the greatest defensive players in NFL history.
Yes, White made one of the biggest plays Monday night, forcing a humble by Pittsburgh quarterback Mike Tomczak that Keith McKenzie returned 88 yards to a touchdown. But the Packers trailed 27-3 at the time and while the play was the catalyst of their fourth-quarter comeback, it hardly made a difference in the Steelers' 27-20 victory.
White, who has 11 sacks this season, occasionally eluded Stephens and nearly seaked Kordell Stewart a couple of times. But the Packers only had three sacks after getting to San Francisco's Steve Young nine times last
Stephens did.
week, and Stephens was given a lot of the credit.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Stephens talked only once with White, a 14-year pro whom
Stephens began watching as an elementary school student.
"Not one word," Stephens said. "I made a comment to him one time, Mr.
White, you're just a little too strong.
And he said, 'Yeah, you're playing well, just keep playing.' And that was about it all night long. I won't say I threw him out of his game, but I could tell I had obviously stepped up to the challenge."
That's something the Steelers couldn't have envisioned only a couple of months ago, when there were serious doubts if the 1996 first-round draft choice would even survive the final training campdown.
"I think I graded out pretty fair," said Stephens, who became a starter after Justin Strzelczyk suffered a season-ending knee injury last month. "The bottom line is we won, and that's what we set out to do. I feel like I handled my business."
N.Y. Jets' Martin piles on yards
Running back steady after injury; happy with first-place spot
The Associated Press
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. — He hasn't had that breakout game yet. His work has been steady, not spectacular. The offense has clicked in other areas more effectively than when he's been the focal point.
yet Curtis Martin isn't complaining. Why should he? His team is in first place.
"If I am an individual-oriented guy, then it would frustrate me," the New
York Jets running back said yesterday. "I'll take whatever little yards to get the wins."
The Jets have been getting those wins even when Martin has been stymied by eight man fronts and extra attention from opposing defenses. They are 6-3, tied with Miami in the AFC East, and have won four straight.
Martin has four 100-yard games, but three of them barely made the mark. He missed the team's last defeat, at St Louis, after injuring his thigh while carrying 36 times (for 108 yards) against Miami the previous week.
In New York's last two games, Martin rushed for 42 yards in the slop at Kansas City and 54 last Sunday vs. Buffalo, when the Bills stacked the
line with seven or eight defenders and dared the Jets to pass. Which they did, getting three touchdowns.
Martin admits he still isn't 100 percent, even though he had a pair of 100-yard efforts after returning from the thigh injury.
When coach Bill Parecells was asked about possibly overworking his $36 million running back, he denied that was the case—even though Martin was on pace to carry nearly 400 times. Against Buffalo, Martin had 21 carries and shared duty with fullback Jerald Sowell.
Still, Martin will get most of the work. If he doesn't pile up big numbers,he won't fret—provided the Jets keep winning.

Jordan will play in league again
Short NBA season to bring comeback of Bulls superstar
By Jim Litke The Associated Press
He is coming back
Michael Jordan didn't spend all that time hanging in midair without learning something useful beyond basketball. He knows there is very little to be gained tipting your intentions too early.
Right now, Jordan would just as soon be caught wearing Dennis Rodman's bridal gown as admit that he's coming back for another go-round. So don't just look at what he says. Look at what he is doing.
All of a sudden, Jordan has more in common with legendary union leader Joe Hill than fellow NBA superstar Grant Hill. He has spent the better part of 13 years in the league, and in all but one of them, Jordan had as much use for the players union as the aforementioned gown.
them home go on.
The exception was prior to the 1995 season. Then, as now, he got involved to protect every player's right to make upward of $30 million per season. Maybe it was just coincidence that Jordan turned out to be the only
player who had a prayer of getting that much.
Either way, now he is at it again — rallying the troops in Las Vegas, going head-to-head at the bargaining table with commissioner David Stern until 1 a.m., swapping barbs with Washington Wizards owner Abe Pollin, doing whatever it takes to guarantee liberty and justice for his struggling brethren.
"I don't have to be in the forefront," Jordan said. "The union asked me to be more in the forefront."
Union chief Billy Hunter confirmed as much. He called Jordan's input "invaluable" and pointed out that as the economic engine for the league's gravy train, Jordan "has the clue to talk back to the owners, and even commissioner Stern, because he commands respect."
Jordan also could command a contract that would pay him the equivalent of $40 million for an entire season, prorated according to how many games are played when—and if—the lockout-shortened season commences.
He keeps warning us not to read anything into his involvement in the negotiating process, and the truth is the money has less to do with his return than the length of the season.
twenty short run-up to the playoffs more and more of the people in his inner circle are sharing Jordan's confidences in public.
But as more and more of the things on his wish list begin to fall into place — big bucks, a resful, lengthy offseason, a depressed market for running mate Scotte Pippen's services, a rela-
His last coach, Phil Jackson, said he thought the number of regular-season games has to get down to between 50 and 60. "Other than that," Jackson told the Chicago Sun-Times, "I can't see him putting his mind and body through the grind again."
Jordan's older brother, Larry, concurred on the magic number. "Since the season will be shortened by about 20 games, I think that would give him the perfect opportunity to get it out of his system," he said. "I think he's leaning
Jordain: Hus't had too much use for NBA players' union.
toward coming back."
in August, before the lockout disrupted anything more important than vacation plans, close friend Buzz Peterson met Jordan in Hawaii for some golf and said a shortened season was the only tie that might get Michael back. Now that it is actually being dangled in front of Jordan, Peterson, a college teammate who
went on to become head coach at Appalachian State, repeated. "He still believes physically he's got another year or two in him. Mentally, that's where he's to give您."
The guess here is that Jordan already has. And that he has already decided to come back.
In late June and early July, while the glow of winning a sixth championship still warmed him, Jordan told almost every one of his golfing buddies in Chicago not to renew their expensive courtside seats. "They won't be worth much next season," he might say, striding down the fairway with a mischievous twinkle in his eye.
Back then, he probably imagined himself without responsibilities, awakened by an alarm clock only to remember he had millions stashed in a bank, then rolling over to go back to sleep. He expected to have enough commitments, not to mention pickup basketball and golf — and yes, gambling if he chose — to occupy his waking hours.
But as he surveys the possibilities around him — another title, a few more paydays, a shorter work week — you can practically sense the competitive juices flowing.

No.23 could play in Vega's exhibition
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Michael Jordan's next basketball game could occur the first weekend of December in an exhibition that would be held in Las Vegas, players' union director Billy Hunter said yesterday.
"Whether or not (Jordan) will play won't be known until the last moment. If he doesn't play,
he'll coach. But he'll be physically present." Hunter said after the union's negotiating committee and several team player representatives met for about 5 1/2 hours to discuss the lockout.
NBA
"He has indicated that he does have
another proposal. When he puts it out there remains to be seen." Hunter said. "I think what he wants to is sweat our players a little more and see whether there's any inclination on our part to want to submit."
partly because.
In response, the NBA denied it was holding back a new proposal.
"We have no idea what he's
There have been no discussions since talks broke off Friday, and the season cannot start until mid-December at the earliest.
talking about," deputy commissioner Russ Granik said.
If another three weeks go by without an agreement, the season probably won't start until 1999.
"Fans may be somewhat disheartened at this moment, but I don't think the fans are turned off to the point that we can't regain their support," Hunter said. "It's sort of crunch time. Sooner or later the (owners) will have to decide that it's time to get a deal.
In the meantime, agents David Falk, Arn Tellem and Eric Fleisher are trying to organize an exhibition game in Las Vegas for the first weekend of September
Hunter said the game might be a matchup between two of the three Dream Teams that competed in the 1992 and 1996 Olympics and the 1994 World Championships.
Competition.
"Our players are interested in keeping themselves busy, and we think that one day to do it is have some sort of an exhibition competition," Hunter said. "The proceeds would go to the (union)."

Student charged with rape and sexual battery
(USPS 650-640)
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas student was arrested Wednesday morning on charges of rape, sexual battery and furnishing alcohol to a minor.
Gregory Hunsucker, Olathe freshman, was charged in Douglas County District Court with the rape of an Ellsworth Hall resident and the sexual battery of another. Both incidents occurred Oct. 17 in two Ellsworth rooms.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said that both women were acquaintances of Hunsucker, 18, and that they all had attended a party in the residence hall that night.
The rape was reported as occurring between 1:05 and 1:15 a.m., according to a police report, which was filed by the victim Oct. 18.
Another police report said the sexual battery occurred between 3 and 3:15 a.m.
"Some gestures and touching took place that constituted sexual battery," he said.
Mailen said the information from the victim of sexual battery arose from a police investigation into the charges of rape and giving alcohol to a minor.
Any person, regardless of age, can be charged for giving alcohol to a minor.
This was the first reported rape on campus this semester.
"Officers conducting the investigation came up with information that the district attorney felt was strong enough to support the additional charge," Malen said.
In 1997, seven rapes and no sexual batteries were reported to the KU Public Safety Office.
Mailen said Hunsucker was allowed to turn himself in at his attorney's request.
Lt. Ken McGovern of the Douglas County Sheriff's office said Hunsucker came to the Douglas County Jail, where the warrant was served, and he was arrested.
Hunsucker appeared in court Wednesday and was released at 4 p.m. on a $40,000 bond.
Hunsucker will face a preliminary hearing at 1:30 p.m. Nov. 23 in the Division II courtroom at the Law Enforcement Center, 111 E. 11th St.
Neither Hunsucker nor his family could be reached for comment.

Mystery of SUA theater
Screenings switch format, location
By Pallavi Agarwal Konson staff writer
D despite lower ticket prices this semester, attendance at campus movie screenings has declined.
Student Union Activities, which organizes movie screenings five days a week, has seen fewer viewers this semester because of the renovation of Woodruff Auditorium, said Mary Smith, SUA box office supervisor.
Lean Humphrey, SUA features films coordinator, said the movies now were shown in Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union on video because the room could not accommodate 16 mm film screenings.
"Alderson does not have much of a theater atmosphere," said Humphrey, Independence, Mo., senior. "As we are forced to show films on video, which have already reached the video stores, we don't offer as much benefit."
Prices this semester for regular shows have been reduced from $2.50 to $2.The midnight shows still are $3.
SUA also is showing more spectrum
films, or art-house films, because these films are lower in cost and relatively inaccessible, even in video stores, she said.
SUA pays between $200 and $800 in video royalties, which are cheaper than film royalties, with an average cost of $400 per video.
The first screening of Spice World, which was scheduled to be shown at 7 p.m. Nov. 3, was canceled because there were no takers.
Although screenings have been canceled in the past because of no turnout, it was the first time this semester. Smith said
SUA's audience numbers also have suffered because of its inability to show sneak previews of films, a big draw in the past. Humphrey said.
SUA has sold an average of seven tickets per show for the 189-seat auditorium this semester. Smith said that attendance tended to be low at the beginning of the week and picked up on weekends.
Sales of movie cards, which allow students to see films at a discount, were lower this semester, with 766 cards sold this year compared to 988 cards last year.
Smith said that on average, only two-thirds of the students picked up their movie cards.
Stacy Lindshield, Lindsbory freshman,
has seen on movie this semester
after paying $50 for the movie tickets.
"I would see more films if I had the time," she said. "It would be nice if they could mail a schedule of the movies."
Tiffany Akers, Olathe senior, has never seen a SUA film even though she has been on campus for more than three years.
"They have a problem with their publicity," she said. "I never go to the Union so I don't know what they are showing."
Humphrey said that promotion was a problem because of budget limitations.
SUA has been hit badly by a University regulation that prohibits the use of classroom bulletin boards for putting up filers, she said.
"We understand that this is a down time, but next semester we hope to bounce back with the renovation of Woodruff," she said.
With the $450,000 refurbishing,
Woodruff Auditorium will get handicap access, better seating, sound and projection systems, said Jim Long, director of
Kansas and Burge Unions.
The refurbishing will be finished in February, he said.

A brief on Page 24 of yesterday's Kansas incorrectly stated the time and place of a School of Social Welfare career/practicum fair.

United Way campaign raises record amount
The United Way of Douglas County announced last night that it raised $1,275,595 in this year's campaign. Hank Booth, drive chair, said this year's total was the most money raised in a Douglas County campaign.
"And we're not done yet," Booth said during last night's ceremony recognizing United Way volunteers. "We still anticipate some late givings."
This year's campaign surpassed last year's total by $100,000 and exceeded United Way's 1998 campaign goal of $1.25 million.
The county-wide campaign, which included Lawrence, Eudora, Baldwin City and Lecompton, began in mid-September. United Way received donations from private individuals, local businesses, school districts, the University of Kansas and other local organizations.
The money raised will be allocated in January among 30 social service agencies.
— By Nadia Mustafa
The University raised about $166,000 for the campaign, including $42,500 in Rock Chalk Revue revenues. The University still is working toward its goal of $173,000.
Administrators urge faculty to back raise
University of Kansas administrators want faculty to help with ongoing lobby efforts to increase salary levels at the state's public universities.
Provest David Shulenburger and Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, asked University Council yesterday to write letters and make phone calls to Gov. Bill Graves and state legislators and ask them to support a Board of Regents initiative to raise faculty salaries.
The initiative, if approved by Graves and the Legislature, would increase salaries by 7.6 percent for three years in order to catch up to the national level.
Hutton provided a brochure to council members that will give faculty information that highlights the needs for higher salaries.
Hutton said that Chancellor Robert
Rememway had visited many locations throughout the state and talked with people about the validity of the increases.
By Jason Pearce
"Sure there are individual benefits, but there are also societal benefits from supporting higher education," Hutton said.
A McCollom Hall resident's room was burgled Monday, and a check from his stolen checkbook was found taped to a mirror in a bathroom on his floor with a racial slur written on it.
The student's roommate may have been asleep in the room during the theft, which occurred between 6 and 10:40 p.m., said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office. Because someone was in the room, the incident was considered an aggravated battery. The roommate was not aware of anyone entering the room, Mailen said.
The student's checkbook was found on a shelf under the mirror where the check was taped.
Mailen said the thief also left a racial message on a dry-erase board on the victim's door.
Smith windows broken; stained glass unharmed
A vandal broke three office windows on the east side of Smith Hall Wednesday night.
A witness heard glass breaking and saw a man running south from the hall between 11:18 and 11:23 p.m., said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office. The windows were broken with pieces of cinder blocks, Mailen said. One of the three windows broke completely, and a piece of cinder block was found inside that office.
The incident was the fifth attack on Smith since April, but the first where stained glass windows on the front of the building were not targeted.
In the last incident on Sept. 3, a davenal tried to break the stained glass windows but was stopped by safety glass. The vandal then broke three office windows in the hall.
The witness to this incident described the suspect as a white male in dark clothing, possibly blue jeans, and a gray stocking cap.

Lawrence police are looking for a 21-year-old Lawrence man who struck an officer yesterday at Haskell University.
The incident began about 3:15 a.m. near Powhatan Hall, when a Haskell security guard saw the man—a former student forbidden to be at the university—walking through campus, said Lawrence Police Set. George Wheeler.
"When the policeman went up to talk to him, the suspect pushed him in the chest with both hands." Wheeler said.
The guard then called the police, who arrived about 3:30 a.m.
Police said the man then ran away, and police were unable to catch him.

Weapons inspectors workers evacuate Iraq
BAGHADAD, Iraq — Convoys of buses evacuated all U.N. weapons inspectors and many humanitarian workers from Iraq on Wednesday, raising fears that a military strike by the United States and Britain was imminent.
Ira showed no sign of backing down from its refusal to deal with the arms inspectors, and 40 more U.N. relief workers were evacuated Thursday morning. In two days, 170 humanitarian workers have been sent to the Jordanian capital of Amman. All 103 U.N. weapons inspectors were taken out Wednesday by air to Bahrain in the Gulf.
Iraqs appeared to be taking the situation in stride, and there was little evidence of panic or any rush to stock up on food.
Prakash Shah, the special envoy of U.N. Secretary-General Koffan, said the withdrawal was "in the background of possible military action against Iraq."
The United States and Britain have been threatening a military strike since Iraq announced Oct. 31, that it was halting the activities of the U.N. Special Commission, known as UNSCOM, which is charged with certifying that Iraq's weapons of mass destruction have been destroyed.
Iraq says it will not resume cooperation with UNSCOM unless the Security Council moves to begin lifting trade sanctions imposed to punish Iraq for its 1990 invasion of Kuwait, which sparked the Persian Gulf War.

KU students to visit conference
Underclassmen to attend meeting on residence halls
By Melody Ard
Kansan staff writer
A delegation of University of Kansas students is Minnesota-bound today to attend a conference about educational programming and leadership in university residence halls.
The 15 students will attend the Midwest Affiliate of College and University Residence Halls, a regional conference for students who live in scholarship or residence halls.
Randy Timm, assistant director of housing, said the students' goal was to share ideas and learn from students at other universities.
"This conference is a programming conference and a leadership, wellness, diversity and spiritual conference." Timm said.
Timm said the University would be recognized for several regional awards, including one for Adam Yarbrough, Shawnee senior for Best Student Executive Board Member and another for Templin Hall for Best Community Service Program.
The KU delegation is taking a banner and display and presenting a program about gay, lesbian and bisexual issues. They also are presenting a program about safe sex called "Sex and Candy."
"Sex and Candy" is a fun way to let people know about serious issues about safe sex," Yarbrough said.
Bart Baldwin, Ottawa senior, said the group chose sex as the theme because
those programs previously had been well attended.
Timm said he particularly was interested in other leadership programs.
"We are interested in learning about diversity training," Timm said. "We have gone from 15 to 105 documentable positions over the last 4 years, and we need to find ways to keep communicating with each other and improving our system."
The KU delegates mainly are underclassmen who were chosen from applications. Timm said the University wanted to send underclassmen because many had not had any residence hall leadership training.
Richard Dana, Jefferson City, Mo., freshman, said he hoped his experiences in publicizing his residence hall's programs would be useful to other students.

Rich Givens, assistant provost, said the University was doing well.
Research funding still short of goal

"This year (1995), $92 million in research funds came into the University. By the year 2000, this number should be $120 million."
Chancellor Robert Hemenway 1995 Faculty Convocation
address
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
In his Fall 1995 Faculty Convocation address, Chancellor Robert Hemenway established a goal that the University of Kansas secure $120 million in research funding by the year 2000.
In 1995, the University had $92 million in funding. It now has $107 million.
In his 1995 address, Hemenway said the University should make commitments toward start-up funds, equipment purchases and matching funds.
Although the University has increased funding, assistant provost Rich Givens said equipment purchases made by the University were lacking.
Givens also said the University needed to build up the Center for Research Inc.
"From that growth more equipment can be purchased," he said.
The Center for Research Inc. promotes research and the funding of research.
Securing external funding also has been an issue of concern. Givens said.
He said the University was not seeking external funding at an amount appropriate for
The problem of securing external funding is the result of individual researchers, and not the Chancellor, Glvens said.
a first-rate school.
Richard Schwen, professor of chemistry, molecular biosciences and pharmaceutical chemistry, said he thought that researchers were doing their best in regards to securing grants and funding.
Hemenway said he did see room for improvement in soliciting more funds.
"We need to increase our success in securing federal grants," he said. "We are pretty successful now, but we can do much better."
Synergy between the University's different campuses also could boost research funding, he said.
Hemenway said he wanted to see the University work as a whole.
Schowen said the University was dealing with a level of research that was better than the level of research funding.
Overall, Hemenway said he wanted to strive for more for the University.
"The characteristic of a great university is that it never becomes self-satisfied." Hemenway said.
KU police help control crowds at Kansas State
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
The KU Public Safety Office will send a team of police officers to Manhattan tomorrow to help control crowds after the Kansas State University vs. Nebraska University football game.
The KU police have helped with this job before, usually after University of Kansas vs. K-State football games.
The officers will help the Riley County police control crowds and enforce a no-alcohol policy on the streets of Agzieville.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said the officers didn't see much action on their last trip because Aggieville was subdued.
"Last year we wrapped it up around midnight," he said.
n K-State wins, the party could last all night. "We're leaving at 2:30 and may not be back until 5 a.m.," Malen said. "It could go either way."
Malten said his officers would serve mainly as a deterrent in Agileville. He said a large, uniformed police presence had helped control crime in previous years.
Lt. Richard Herrman of the Kansas State police department said K-State officers had made trips to Kansas.
In Lawrence, the visiting officers worked on campus, in Memorial Stadium or on the streets when Kansas basketball advanced to the Final Four and beyond.
Herrmann said K-State officers also would be in Akgleville after the game tomorrow.
He said extra help from his department and the University of Kansas was necessary because of the concentration of bars and restaurants in Aggleville.
"It is a real congested area adjacent to campus, so it is a gathering place," he said.

Gingrich's decision to step down was good for Republicans, country
Since the Republican party gained a majority in the United States Congress four years ago, Newt Gingrich arguably has been one of the most powerful and influential men in the United States.
Nonetheless, Gingrich made the right decision last week when he decided to resign his position as Speaker of the House and his seat in the House of Representatives.
In his 20-year career in the House, Gingrich made his name as an outspoken and often brash apostle of conservatism, a rarity in that he served as a Republican from Georgia, a historically Democratic state. Gingrich received national attention by lambasting the Democratic Party and forming the Conservative Opportunity Society to oppose welfare. He continued to move up the Republican Party ladder and pulled off his biggest coup by helping bring down former House Speaker Jim Wright on ethics charges.
As an American icon of everything wrong with politics, the former Speaker needs to go.
But it is the 1994 Republican Revolution that helped Gingrich reach his political peak. After Republicans won 52 seats that year promising a Contract With America, Gingrich won the House leadership.
But much like the eventual decline in the Republican congressional majority, Gingrich's public image continued to plummet. Like
Wright, he admitted guilt to ethics charges and paid a $300,000 fine. He also is partly to blame for failing to prevent the costly government shutdown late in 1995.
Gingrich's decision certainly will benefit the increasingly splintered Republican Party. Judging by the shrinking Republican majority, he had become much more of a liability than an asset.
But more importantly, his departure should benefit the United States. To many, Gingrich was the most recognizable embodiment of all that is wrong with contemporary American politics: unethical, devious and partisan rather than representative. Hopefully his absence will reduce the profound amount of public aversion to government.
Chris Borniger for the editorial board
Capital punishment not appropriate
As the debate about the pending execution of award-winning Pennsylvania journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal intensifies, the state of Kansas should examine, and change, its position regarding capital punishment.
Abu-Jamal has been on death row since 1981, when he was convicted of shooting a Philadelphia police officer. However, whether he is truly guilty continues to remain an issue of debate.
Some Pennsylvania media sources and several human rights agencies, including Amnesty International, have raised questions regarding jury tampering and racial prejudices in Abu-Jamal's trial.
Pennsylvania case raises questions about the death penalty in Kansas.
An international organization of Abu-Jamal supporters have called this former Black Panther Party organizer a political prisoner. He even has been declared an honorary citizen of several European cities.
Whether Abu-Jamal's trial was tampered with will be decided within weeks in a federal court, when his final appeal is heard. But the question that this issue should raise at the University of Kansas is how capital punishment can be justified.
Assuming that all those on death row are guilty, where does Kansas draw the authority to execute them? How can a government condemn killing and then kill the condemned?
Life sentences punish those convicted of murder for their entire lives and do not leave blood on the hands of the state.
Abu-Jamal's situation is typical of every inmate sitting on death row
his only is being played out or grander scale. The state of Pennsylvania presses for his execution, while thousands of protesters around the world, including a contingent of students in Lawrence, call for his release.

It seems like advice comes from every direction when you're first starting college. People I barely knew, who had no interest in my life up to that point, came
Advice for breaking bad news to parents
from all corners of the globe to bestow their experience-laden knowledge on me as I made parole and escaped the bars of my high school institution a few years ago.
What college to attend, how to study correctly, what to major in? Everyone seemed to have the right answers. I'm sure that this year's freshmen are still reeling from the onslaught of wisdom that has been freshly thrust
upon them. So if there's an empty corner left up in the oil' memory bank, let me cram a little free advice of my own in there; advice that you can actually use. And even if it's been years since you've fallen under the dreaded freshman label, this still could come in handy.
I've recently caught myself glancing at the calendar, dreading the approach of Thanksgiving because I will see my parents for the first time since the Fourth of July, and I will have to explain to them why their son, the senior, has dropped Spanish — again. I would normally go with the "it was like my teacher was speaking a whole other language" comic-relief excuse, but this semester I'm pulling out all the stops.
Here's how you amateurs are going to get it done. Whatever happens, don't wait until Christmas break to tell them bad news. Do you really want to spend an entire month getting the "we raised you better than that" look? I didn't think so.
It has occurred to me, though, that I might not be the only KU student whose parents are in for some holiday surprises. So for all of you out there, especially freshman — who are stressing about how to explain a butterfly tattoo, a new smoking habit, or a GPA that could only be a 4.0 if you moved the decimal point one place to the right — take notes from the master.
Admittedly, this will be tougher for those of you whose parents still have expectations and hopes for your success. Mine are probably waiting in eager anticipation for how their oldest college student will break this semester's blunder to them. And yes, you guessed it, my parents get the Kansan and my work is done.
And don't wait until the entire family is sitting down to Thanksgiving Dinner to show off your newly pierced navel. That isn't news that should be sprung on your dad while he is holding a carving knife.
Do something you should have done years ago - lower their expectations. Don't waste your time attempting to cloud the issue with how many friends you've made in the first semester or that story about how you wooled the most gorgeous sorority girl with half your charm tied behind your back. That will just infuriate them further. Besides, every one knows that story is made up. Your dad probably has the same story from when he was in school.
The best way to prepare them for bad news is to make them think something much worse is coming. In the next few weeks when you're on the phone with your parents, slip in a question about whether a DUI is a felony or misdemeanor or if Planned Parenthood is free. When the bad news is that you're only on academic probation, they'll be meeting you at the door with turkey, stuffing and huts of joy.
But if all else fails and the wrath of parental disappointment is inevitable, just ask to see their college transcripts. Understanding and support will be there in no time.
Beating yourself up over mistakes achieves nothing. Life is much easier when you relax and start enjoying it. Besides, you've got all new and exciting screw-ups to be working on.
I have experience in the mistake-explaining field that warrants a Ph.D. My parents still claim me even though I once bought a motorcycle with a student loan. So don't fight it. Let a professional lead you down the
road of mediocrity.

W within the next few months journalist, activist, and State of Pennsylvania death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal will have his death warrant
Unjust conviction could lead to wrongful execution
Abu-Jamal will have in signed. This is the result of a 1982 case in which he was convicted of the first-degree murder of Philadelphia police officer Dan Faulkner.
In response to this, a Lawrence-based activist group, tentatively called the Mumia Committee, has formed to protest this decision. In doing so, they join Amnesty International, South Africa's African National Congress, the European Par-

political organizations. How and why did this man's case become so widely contested? This largely hidden episode in American history started in 1981 when Mumia Abu-Jamal, who was carrying a legally registered gun, and his brother were pulled over by Faulkner. Not long after this, Philadelphia police were responding to a call that a fellow officer had been shot—perhaps fatally. Police arrived on the scene to find Faulkner and African-American Abu-Jamal both shot and near death. According to witness Sharon Smith, the police then began to viciously beat and kick Abu-Jamal, threatening to kill him and shouting racial slurs.

liament and numerous other international political organizations. How and why did this man's case become so widely contested?
Despite this attack and a delay in getting Abu-Jamal to a hospital, which is widely thought to be an attempt by the police to allow him to bleed to death, Mumia lived. That night in the hospital, the Philadelphia police began to build their case. They claim that Abu-Jamal stood over Faukker and loudly confessed his guilt.
Contradicting this, however, is that none of the hospital workers trying to revive Faulkner remember this happening. Also, the officer specifically assigned to stay with Abu-Jamal repeatedly stated, "the negro male said nothing." The most damning evidence against this "confession," however, can be taken from the fact that Abu-Jamal was unconscious at the time.
When Abu-Jamal finally awoke, he found a police officer standing on the medical bag he now needed to urinate, in an apparent attempt to burst his bladder. This and his beating led Abu-Jamal to file police brutality charges. Only then did officer Gary Wakshul, the one who had reported that Abu-Jamal said nothing, state that Mumia had confessed. Though Wakshul's late change of story could have been vital to
During the trial, the prosecution's stal witnesses were two prostitutes and a convicted arsonist who was driving a taxi without a permit (jurors were not told of his legal status). All three of them testified that they had seen Abu-Jamal shoot Faulkner. All three of them also later recanted their testimony, claiming that they had been intimidated and told to lie by the police in exchange for legal favors. Another man, William Singletary, testified that he had seen a man other than Abu-Jamal shoot Faulkner, but that police officers told him he would not be released until he signed a document accusing Abu-Jamal.
In fact, Singletary testified that Abu-Jamal had actually tried to help Faulkner, and that he was mistakenly shot by the officer when he bent over to reach him (this is consistent with the angle from which Abu-Jamal was shot). A man named Dessie Hightower backed Singletary's testimony and passed a lie detector test while doing so. The fact that Hightower passed this test (he was the only witness given one) was not shown to the defense.
In addition, no test was performed on Abu-Jamal to see if he had fired his gun or to see if his gun was fired. The case's medical examiner did state, though, that he thought Faulkner was shot with a larger caliber gun than the one Mumia owned.
At the beginning of the case, Mumia's defense attorney told the court that he was unprepared to try the case and did not have sufficient funds for expert witnesses. Despite this, Judge Albert Sabo, who was already known as "the hanging judge," ruled that the case should go forward.
Nonetheless, Abu-Jamal was found guilty. Since then, South African President Nelson Mandela, a former German Prime Minister, an International Tribunal of judges and numerous others throughout the world have denounced Abu-Jamal's conviction as racist and in violation of human rights. They have asked people to take action for Abu-Jamal. I write this to ask the same. His case has recently been upheld, and the date of his execution is to be decided within the next 90 days.
Abu-Jamal's defense, he was sent on "vacation" during the following trial and was not made available to testify.
Abu-Jamal recently stated that nothing can make an innocent man guilty. He is correct, but unless this nation takes action a man who may be innocent will also be one who is executed.

Dancers portray Hispanic culture
Different groups represented in Ballet Hispanico
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Tina Ramirez decided to start a dance company so audiences could understand her culture better.
The result is Ballet Hispanico of New York, a 30-year-old company that will perform tomorrow night in the Lied Center.
"My main goal when I started the company was to represent Hispanic culture in a high-quality way." Ramirez said. "Because dance requires no words, a general audience can learn our culture better."
The pieces performed by the company's 12 dancers mostly are a mix of classical ballet technique and Spanish and Latin American dance forms.
Ramirez, who was born in Venezuela, said that the company would present three pieces tomorrownight.
The first piece, called "Tierra de Nadie," was choreographed by the Spanish choreographer Maria Rovira. "Tierra de Nadie," which means "no man's land," is a mutual territory where different kinds of people meet.
"For example, I was born in Venezuela, lived in New York and now I'm here," Ramirez said. "It is a mixture of flame menco with

fabulous drum beats."
"The gypsies are the ultimate outsiders because they are always moving from one place to another and nobody wants them to stay there," Ramirez said.
She said the last piece, called "Ritmo y Ruido," portrays today's youth and how people behave today. Hip-hop and Afro-Cuban rhythms accompany this piece.
During their week-long residency in Lawrence, several students and Lawrence community members had a chance to meet the dancers.
At a potluck dinner, organized by the center, took place Wednesday at the Lawrence Arts Center. About 70 people came to learn salsa steps from members of Ballet Hispanico.
"The girl that danced with me was really patient, and I learned a lot," Nathan McCommon, Topeka senior, said.
Ramirez said meeting members of the community was a great opportunity to create more awareness about Hispanic culture.
"People who came here and don't know about our culture will learn some," she said. "I love the fact that they are here because they want to understand our culture."

Tina Delarosa, the executive director of the Kansas advisory committee on Hispanic Affairs, said that she was pleased with the commitment of the Lied Center to bring in Hispanic performances.
She said that with out the center's help, several communities in Kansas never would have an opportunity to see Hispanic artists and understand elements of another culture through arts.
Tickets for tonight's performance are available at the KU box offices and cost $10 to $12.50 for students and $19 to $25 for
Pedro Ruiz and Veronica Ruiz of Ballet Hispanico will be performing this weekend.

America's history.
"The University Theatre has reflected the moods of society. So in the '60s when all of the Western protests were going on, the University Theatre was reflecting them," Unruh said. "Today it reflects contemporary society also."
Ron Willis, professor of theater and film and former director of the University Theatre, said the company preserved theater's heritage, producing old plays that still have a current appeal.
But in 75 years, several plays have been produced more than once, and Shakespeare seems to be the most popular name on the list.
"It would be kind of unfair to single out anyone of the productions because we are equally proud of all of them." Unruh said.
Buildina tradition
In 1923, Willis said that Crafton was invited by the University of Kansas to build the theater program, then called the department of speech and drama.
On Dec. 3, 1923, the new theater program made its debut with a two-night run of The Devil's Discipline.
"This is not the oldest program in the country, but it certainly has a long history."
T
tory through the work of Alan Crafton," Unruh said, "At that time, nobody who taught theater in the university level was in fact trained, because there were no academic programs. Crafton was trained in biology, for example."
During the 1926-27 school year, Crafton won approval from the College of Arts and Science to offer a major in speech and dramatic art
The first company's hit was The Ticket of Leave Man, which recreated the original 1863 London production. About 2,000 students attended the two-day performance in a time when there were only 4,000 students enrolled at the University.
Wills said Crafton was involved with every aspect of the theater, writing plays, directing and acting in some of them.
PETER MAYER
"He was a real well-spring of energy and creativity," he said.
In fact one of the plays written and directed by Crafton in 1939, Cum Laude, reflected his desire to connect arts with the University in every aspect. From the play came the official University march Onward Kansas, with words by Crafton and music by Jack Laffer.
Preyer: Came to the University to teach music in 1915
The University Daily Kansan review of the play said, "The production itself was a tribute to the University, and with the exception of a few songs, it was entirely a campus product."
Crafton also organized a play with an African-American cast in 1930, when the campus was still segregated.
The play, Come Seven, was a success, closing that year's season with a total of 10,000 people in the audience.
The Kansan wrote, "In view of a certain amount of opposition to such an attempt, we are glad to note that the excellence with which the production was presented is conclusive proof that an [African-American] student play has in itself reason enough for its being."
The University Theatre also felt the recession from the Great Depression, having to reduce its productions to three per year.
Crafton had to deal with the loss of male faculty members and many of his male students. The reduction of people on campus also hurt the company's budget. Its funds were cut in half during the war.
per year.
But it was during World War II that the company, still under the command of Crafton, proved its creativity.
Because a majority of the plays of the time had more male roles than female roles, Crafton decided to write his own
Down from 10,000 patrons who attended Come Seven in 1980, the audience in the 1944-45 season totaled only 1,500.
piece as a way to solve this problem. The result was Tune in Yesterday, an all-female play dealing with the trials and tribulations at a sorority house when the campus' men go away to war.
Growing forward
Crafton worked as a faculty member until he was 70. He died in 1966 at 75.
unruh said that between 1923 to 1953, the University Theatre produced shows in various places on campus, such as the old Fraser Hall, Green Hall and in the Bowersock Opera House, which is now Liberty Hall.
In 1957, Murphy Hall opened a "state of the art" production center, opening a great expansion time for the University Theatre. Unruh said.
"In 1957, there were seven faculty, two staff members, 147 theater members and the University Theatre produced six shows," he said. "Last year there were 24 faculty, 11 full-time staff members and 438 University Theatre members and we produced 17 shows."
Uruhra said that in the 1980s, Murphy Hall's main theater was renamed to honor Crafton and Carl Preyer, a music professor who came to the University in 1915 to teach music and died in 1947.
Jack Wright, professor of theatre and film, said that he talked with Crafton when he arrived to pursue his master's degree in the University.
"I knew that Crafton was the heart and soul of the University Theatre so I went to talk to him when I saw him sitting in the back of stage. He was very warm and open," Wright said. "He told me I know you are going to have a special stay in the University of Kansas,' and that made me feel really comfortable to be here."
Future roles
The University Theatre plans include strengthening its work in virtual-reality productions, developing a consistent program in minority theater and continuing
its on-going international theater purpose.
"This department has always had a lot of international connections, but we want to bring more international plays, more international guests and also have more students and faculty travel to other nations." Unruh said.
Andrea Acosta, Overland Park senior, said the University Theatre was always hungry for new people who want to take a role.
"If students want to be involved, the theater rally in the beginning of the year is the best time," Acosta said. "There is when we talk about the season and different students and faculty give their insight. People in the University Theatre are very friendly and very willing to help."
Maggie Baldomir, Buenos Aires,
Argentina, graduate student, will direct
The Kiss of the Spider Women at the end of
the year.
"Ilove work in the University Theatre," Baldomir said. "You really get close to your professors, especially if you spend so many hours working with them at rehearsals."
Legends: William Inge (let) shares a moment with Craftman. Both men have theaters named after them.

Commentary
Basketball games spark childhood memories
I remember the first game I saw in Allen Field House.
Danny Manning was a freshman, and my dad had gotten four front-row tickets across from the Kansas bench.
I was 12-years-old and had never been to a big-time college basketball game, but I could sense the excitement in the air as we paid $3 to park and walked toward "The House that Phog Built."
Kansas beat Memphis State 75-71 that Feb. 9 evening, but I don't remember much about the play of Ron Kellogg, Greg Dreiling, Calvin Thompson or Cedric Hunter.
My brother and I were impressed that
My brother and I we fans could be so loud that we couldn't hear ourselves yell.
The next year, we got tickets again for a 89-78 win against Arkansas.
Since then, I've been to countless games and watched Jayhawk greats Richard Scott, Steve Woodberry and Jacque Vaughn.
YOU ARE THE MOST AWESOME MAN IN THE WORLD

because we attended both of them with our dad.
Last Saturday, I sat on press row, even closer to the court than those tickets from the mid-80s, and I watched people file into the seats.
But it was the families who caught my attention — kids clutching an oversized soda in one hand and their dad's hand in the other.
Groups of two, sometimes three, people walked by. Older fans enjoying their retirement, younger fans reliving their not-so-distant undergraduate days and the students, en masse, filled the bleachers as the clock ticked down to tipoff.
I've seen it at the women's basketball games, too. Two years ago, my sister's high school basketball team watched Kansas beat Colorado during the annual "Fill-the-Field-House" promotion.
There's something about a game when you're a kid. As you watch the teams play, you can imagine yourself running up and down the court, stealing the ball, passing and scoring.
For kids, the game can be almost overwhelming with the flashy uniforms, the crush of people, the band, the cheerleaders and the noise.
But those are also the things children feed on — constant energy, rapid motion and stomping that crescendos louder than thunder.
We had listened to Max Falkenstien and Bob Davis call the games on the radio, but nothing prepared us for the size, speed and spectacle of the Jayhawks in person.
Our rural Bremen home is more than two hours from Lawrence. I'm sure we fell asleep in the car on the way home from those games, dreaming of basketball.

'Hawks lose in three despite solid defense
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
It took only three games, but it was quite a battle.
Although the Kansas volleyball team lost to No. 12 Texas 16-14, 15-5 and 15-11 last night at Allen Field House, middle blocker Amanda Reves said that the Jayhawks never gave up.
"We displayed more confidence," Reves said. "We had nothing to lose in this game."
Kansas' defense kept the score close in two of the games, and coach Ray Bechard said he was proud of the improvement his team showed from

a week ago.
Compared to collecting 22 digs in a losing effort at Texas Tech last week, the Jayhawks posted 70 digs against the Longhorns last night. Right-side hitter Nancy Bell paced the Jayhawks, collecting a career-best 19 digs.
The Jayhawks also recorded just one fewer team block than Texas, one of the premier blocking teams in the nation.
"We were out-blocking them until the last block of the game," Bechard said. "If you tell me we out-block them and dig more balls than them, I know we're in the game. They just had the athleticism that allows them to make the plays that win the game."
The Jayhawks jumped ahead 12-8 in the first game behind the efforts of Reves and setter Laura Rohde. Texas battled back to pull even at 12 each, but the Jayhawks didn't let up.
The Jayhawks reached game point first but could not finish it off. Several times this season, the Jayhawks have lost games when they were one point away from a victory.
"We just need to break through," said outside hitter Mary Beth Albrecht. "We just need to see what it's like to do it. We're right there. We just need to make it happen."
Texas dominated the second game. They pulled ahead 10-5, and the Jayhawks never recovered.
Despite falling behind 5-1, the Longhorns quickly pulled ahead 14-5. One point away from being swept, the Jawhacks refused to give up.
"We were relentless," Rohde said. "They were serving for match point a couple of times, and we didn't crack under the pressure. We played defense and stayed in there."
The Jayhawks dropped to 14-13 overall and 4-11 in the conference after the loss.
"We have a day to prepare and get organized, which is good," Bechard said. "Texas A&M is a quicker team, and they are better in transition, but it's another top 25 team."
'Hawks to open regular season vs. Gonzaga
Bechard said that the Jayhawks match at 7:30 tomorrow night at home against Texas A&M would be a challenge to get ready for in one day.

After the bad luck of several players getting injured before the season began, the Kansas men's basketball team hopes opening the season on Friday the 13th will bring good fortune.
The No. 8 Jayhawks open the regular season at 7:05 tonight against Gonzaga at Allen Field House. They are confident after fine-tuning in two exhibition games.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said he was more assured about the team than he was before the exhibition games, especially after defeating the Geelong Supercats 140-78.
"I'm still not real confident," Williams said. "You have to understand that group (Geelong) was ready to take a 30-hour trip

"It's not the opener you'd like to have," Williams said. "The opener you'd like to have is a team that scores 150 points that's not very disciplined, but that's not what we're going to find here."
Senior guard Ryan Robertson said Williams warned the team not to take Gonzaga lightly, words team members heard not long ago from the coach.
"We're playing a very, very good basketball team," Robertson said. "Williams) said we need to have two really good days of practice because this team is very good. I remember specifically the last time he warned us about a team was Rhode Island, and we all know what happened there. So right away, immediately in my mind, I have an exclamation mark about this team coming in here."

To be successful, the Jayhawks will have to guard the Bulldogs tightly outside the three-point line. The Bulldogs have shot 69 three-pointers during their two exhibition games and made 54 percent.
Williams said Gonzaga had two impressive outside shooters in Matt Santangelo and Richie Frahm. Santangelo, a junior guard, led the Bulldogs in scoring last season, averaging 16.2 points. Frahm, a junior forward, adds outside firepower. He hit 76 three-point shots last season.

Playing point guard for the Jayhawks will be freshman Jeff Boschee. Boschee scored 21 points and led the team against Geelong, with only one basket in the second half. Boschee will be the first freshman point guard to start the season opener since Jacque Vaughn started
against Western Michigan on Nov. 17, 1993.
Vaughn will be on hand to see Boschee make the start. Vaughn, Paul Pierce and Raef Frentz will be inducted into the
Kansas Athletics Hall of Fame at halftime. The Jayhawks have not lost a home season opener since 1972 and hope to build on the nation's longest home-court winning streak: 60 games.
Cross country team optimistic as it gears up for regional
By Brad Hallier
It has been a tough year for the men's and women's cross country teams, but both have one more chance to erase any disappointment from the 1998 season.
Kansan sportswriter
The women will race at noon tomorrow at the Midwest Regional in Wichita. The men race at 12:45 p.m.
Junior Brian Jensen is coming off a strong performance at the Big 12
Conference Championships in Lincoln, Neb., on Oct. 11. Jensen finished fifth at the meet, the highest finish by a Jayhawk in a conference meet in more than 14 years. The men's team finished sixth.
Jensen said that he hoped the team would finish no worse than fourth. The top two teams automatically qualify for the national meet, but teams finishing third or fourth may grab one of the 13 wild-card spots.
"For myself, I would like to qual-
iny for nationals (if the team doesn't 't)," he said. "I can't say what position I want to finish because I don't know many of the runners I will face, but I would definitely say in the top 10."
The top four individual runners from teams that don't qualify for nationalists will earn invitations to the national meet.
Kansas cross country coach Gary Schwartz said that training was going well for the regional meet.
"The men have made progress in practice and meets," he said. "Our mental and physical preparation is very good."
This year, the men's field will consist of 29 teams, with Oklahoma State and Minnesota being the teams to beat.
"After them, I think there's a group of five or six teams that could upset one or both, and we are in that group," he said. "If we run the way we are capable of, we have a shot at

The women's team has not had as much success this year. It finished a disappointing 12th in the Big 12 meet, but optimism is high for this weekend. Senior Diane Heffernan ran her best race of the season at the Big 12 meet. Her time of 18:51.2 is the team's best time of the year as was her 46th place finish.
simple goals for the weekend.
Schwartz acknowledged that this season had been a tough one for the women's team.
"We want closer times as a team and closer placement," she said. "We have a young group, so one of the biggest things for this weekend will be experience."
"We've improved the last two meets," he said. "I don't figure to finish high. To finish with our best race of the year is a worthy goal."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 13). You should be in good spirits this year. You're confident and compassionate. It will be easy to get others to do what you want because they will benefit too, especially in November. In December, sell something you're not using to get the money you need. You could find another source of income by January. Make changes to your place in February, so you can entertain loved ones in March. Tackle a challenge in April. This could lead to a career advancement in August. Once that's clinched, you'll be free to run and play in September.
Aries: Today is a 6.
You're finishing up a complicated project and making sure everything is perfect. That's important. If this is a gift, you want it to be the nicest one you could possibly make. If you continue to focus on others instead of yourself, you'll find the task easier.
Taurus: Today is a 7.
Jupiter is going direct today. That will make it easier for you to enroll other people in helping with your schemes. And you've got some pretty nice ones. You may be a little shy about discussing them; Go ahead and tell people what you're up to.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
You continue to disrupt your environment. You're not muddying your own waters, though. You're actually clearing things up. The overall intention is to have a place where you can relax. Tomorrow is going to be an excellent day for romance.
Cancer: Today is a 7.
You're strong, intelligent, good looking and adamant that others are taken care of. You're going to become successful beyond your wildest dreams, but you're not even thinking about that. Your mind is on other people. That helps them notice you, and what they notice is that you are awesome. Keep up the good work.
Leo: Today is a 5.
P
Scorpio: Today is a 7.
Virgo: Today is a 7.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
you're still pushing to make things come out just right, and you may be ruffling a few feathers. But people will have to concede you were correct. Your passion for perfection right now is pushing others to try new things. Congratulations!
Libra: Today is a 5.
Capricorn: Today is a 7.
You are an absolute joy and inspiration today. People are eager to do your bidding since they believe so strongly in your objectives. Make sure you let them know how you want the job done. If it's a healing and nurturing intention, which it probably is, you'll have no trouble enlisting volunteers.
There may be changes going on, but the most noticeable one for you requires self-discipline and sticking to your schedule. You might feel as if somebody else is making you do this, but that's just because you forget that you're the one who set the scheme up in the first place.
Your luck is not that great today. It's going to take perseverance to achieve your objective. You're going to have to make up a schedule and stick to it. If you can manage to take this advice, you'll be amazed at the results.
Details are the most important things in your life today and there are plenty of them. All you have to do is to figure out which ones are important. A source of funding you thought had dried up will start generating again. Ask somewhere you were turned down previously. You could get a much better answer this time.
2
Pisces: Today is a 7.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
ii
The person who knows the answer to the puzzle today isn't telling, but you can figure it out. Then you'll know what needs to be done next. It seems that a door that previously was locked shut has swung open. The answer is something you've tried before with no success. Try it again.
you've completed a lot of old projects during the last few weeks, but now Jupiter, your ruling planet, is going direct, and it's time to start looking toward the future. Don't worry. There's nothing special you have to do. This is going to happen naturally. Just go with the flow.

Jayhawks to face No.7 Tar Heels
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
This is as big a game as the Kansas women's basketball team could have in mid-November.
The Jayhawks play their season opener Sunday in West Lafayette, Ind., against No. 7 North Carolina in the State Farm Tipoff Classic. The game will be telecast live at 1 p.m. on ESPN2.
"We're definitely ready," said center Nakia Sanford. "We're really excited. We want to kick their butts."
If Kansas can do that, it would solidify the program as one of the best in the nation. The Jayhawks were 4-5 last season against ranked teams, including three losses against top 10 opponents.

"Polls mean nothing to me," said forward Lynn Pride. "They did welly-squat. I could care less if Carolina was first; we're still going out there to win."
A win also would be a significant step toward the Big 12 being thought of as one of the top conferences in the nation. Coaches spent much of the preseason media day campaigning for more conference respect, and they said it had to be earned through wins against top teams in top conferences — especially if those victories are on national television.
“It’s the game,” Sanford said, emphasizing the second word. “It’s big. There’s going to be more coverage with TV, and it can be a way to gauge where we are.”
The Tar Heels' playing style is similar to that of the 'Hawks. North Carolina traditionally has played up-tempo, a style made possible by their personnel.
their personnel.
"They have tremendous athletes, and they have a host of them," said Kansas coach Marian Washington. "They have probably, on their team, two or three players that could possibly play in the WNBA. They're that developed."
At the head of North Carolina's team is forward Chanel Wright. The 6-0 Wright is the team's leading returning scorer after averaging 13.9 points per game last season, a number that will probably swell with the departure of Tracy Reid, North Carolina's all-time leading scorer.
Wright played alongside Pride this summer on a U.S.A. Women's Basketball team, winning a gold medal in the Jones Cup in Taiwan. "Bridge tends to be matched against Writ"
"This is a great match-up," said North Carolina coach Sylvia Hattchell. "The teams are a lot alike with their athletic ability. I know Lynn Pride is an outstanding player. We know how great she is. As far as Chanel and Lynn Pride are concerned, they have a great respect for each other."
Pride stands to be matched up against Wright for a significant chunk of Sunday's game.
Wright can play shooting guard or small forward, and she's one reason why North Carolina's strength is on the perimeter. Another is Nikki Teasley. The 6-1 point guard was named ACC Rooke of the Year after leading the conference with 166 assists.

Tesley's playing ability by pushing the ball.
"We're not going to change things," Hatchell said. "We're going to focus on what we do best."
Teasley's playing ability by pushing the ball
With that in mind, Washington's preparation for the game has concentrated on one thing.
"At this point, it's all about defense," she said. "We really want to keep five players in front of them. We've got to find a way to stop them, or do something to get them out of what they want to do."
Kansan Coupons
No one will argue the importance of Sunday's game, but Washington was cautious about putting too much weight on the outcome.
"We've been working very hard to get into midseason form for this game," she said. "Win or lose, it's going to be good. It's an opportunity for us to be better prepared for the conference. We've got to play good teams, and this is one of the best teams in the country."

Justin Glasgow remembers years with Jayhawks
Bv Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Few walk-onss experience the success that offensive lineman Justin Glasgow has had in his four years on the Kansas football team.
Of course, Glasgow isn't your average walk-on. In fact, he's not much of a walk-on at all.
While other athletes who choose to walk onto an athletic team wait years for scholarships that they sometimes never receive, Glasgow had his in a matter of days.
Glasgow graduated from Topeka Hayden High School in 1995 and walked onto the Kansas football team that fall.
Four days into practice, then Kansas coach Glen Mason offered Glasgow a scholarship.
"Yeah, Coach Mason said, 'This is the fastest walk-on in KU history to get a scholarship' or something like that, supposedly." Glasgow said.
Glasgow was recruited by several universities while still in high school, but he broke his foot during the first game of his senior year, and recruiters backed off.
He was offered a full scholarship to Washburn University, but with Kansas still interested in him, he chose to take his chances as a walk-on.
"I had all these small schools like Washburn and Emporia ask me to come and play for them," he said. "But my heart was set
As a freshman, Glasgow was No. 2 on the depth chart the entire year and played in seven games.
here, and it's probably the best decision I've ever made."
His first career start came in the first game of his sophomore year, and he never looked back.
Entering his senior year, he had started in 22 consecutive games and played in 29. He also has started every game this season for the Jayhawks.
78
Starting assignments and honors are not the only highlights of Glasgow's career, though. Other feats stand out in his mind.
"Going to the Aloha Bowl, and that year, beating Colorado at Colorado, beating Oklahoma as an underdog, and probably all the friends I've made will probably be the things I most remember." Glasgow said.
The Jayhawks play their final game of this season next Saturday against Iowa State in Ames, Iowa.
Justin Glasgow is a force on the offensive line. He was offered a full scholarship to Washburn University but chose to take his chances with Kansas as a walk-on. It paid off when he received a scholarship four days into practice. Photo by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN
Memories are all he will have after next week.
It will be Glasgow's final game because the Jayhawks failed to qualify for a bowl.
If there was anything Glasgow would change about his final season at Kansas, it would be the Kansas vs. Kansas State game.
"K-State will always have that bitterness, will always be a part of my heart," he said. "I've never beaten them. Of course, I live in between Lawrence and Manhattan, and I've seen more '76
Chevies with Powercats on the front of them. Just to hear all the trash they talk, it's probably the most disappointing game that I wish we could've won."
If the Kansas football team could change one thing, it probably would be Glasgow's senior status.
Glasgow, who was chosen a captain by his teammates this year, will be sorely missed in the offensive line, which he has led for the past three seasons.
"He's been a steady force out there." Coach Terry Allen said. "He's really done a good job as
far as being a captain, being a leader of the group and a leader of the offensive line."
Although Glasgow will miss his team as much as his team will miss him, he's just happy he had the opportunity.
"I'm content with what I've got," he said. "I'm very lucky to be in the position to play Division I football. I have friends come up to me all the time saying how they wish they could still be playing, how they wish they could be me, and that makes me more content with what I've got."

Championship race gathering steam
K-State,UCLA Tennessee compete for the title game
By Richard Rosenblatt The Associated Press
With winter closing in, it's time to turn up the heat on the college football season.
The chase for the national championship reaches its first crucial stage Saturday, with the top three teams — Tennessee, Kansas State and UCLA — facing top-notch talent.
The Volunteers (8-0), No. 1 for the first time in 42 years, play to surprising No. 10 Arkansas (8-0). It'll be the first time two undefeated SEC teams have met this late in the season since Nov. 27, 1971, when Alabama beat Auburn 31-7.
Kansas State (9-0) plays perhaps the biggest game in school history when No. 11 Nebraska (8-2) brings its 29-game winning streak against the Wildcats to Manhattan.
And then there's No. 3 UCLA (8-0).
which visits Washington (54), a dangerous team at home led by quarterback Brock Huard. The past two weeks, the Bruins narrowly
UCLA
escaped against Stanford and Oregon State, teams with losing records.
A someone feeling stressed out?
"Pressure?" asks Michigan coach Lloyd Carr, whose defending national champions are polled for a Rose Bowl return with wins against No. 8 Wisconsin on yesterday and Ohio State on Nov. 21. "You can look
at it as a burden or an opportunity. If you prepare the best you can, you have a good chance to handle it, and if you're not, you won't be able to."
Tennessee has handled things quite nicely after the departure of state hero Pevton Manning.
so far, they've been perfect, including an overtime thriller against Florida and Tee Martin's near-perfect passing against South Carolina a few weeks ago. Not even the loss of star running back Jamal Lewis last month has slowed them down. The defense is doing its job, too, allowing just 14.3 points per game.
The Wildcats, meanwhile, are well aware of what it would mean to beat
t. h. e.
Huskers. All season,
K-State has been criticized for its
w e a k schedule.
Now, the
C
Wildcats have a chance to make their title statement.
"We'll have our hands full," K-State coach Bill Snyer said.
So will Nebraska, a rare double-digit underdog. With Bobby Newcombe still injured, Eric Crouch starts at quarterback as the 'Huskers get to play national title spoilers.
K-State is led by the versatile Michael Bishop. His only loss in two seasons at K-State was to Nebraska, 56-26 in '97, and Snyder said that gives his quarterback even more incentive.
"It's become an extremely important game for him, but that's only one of the reasons." Snyder said.
Asked if the game is the most important in school history, Snyder said: "I don't know if that's necessarily the case but it is certainly important and vital to us. We understand
the importance of the game."
N trumpet
Should two of the top three fall, No. 4 Florida and No. 5 Florida State are set to jump into the national title fray. Both are big favorites to win Saturday and set

'Cats claw their way out of losses cellar
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — So just who is the major college football program with the most losses of all time?
It's not Kansas State anymore, according to NCAA records of all college teams.
The Wildcats bore the label of the most losing program in major college history for many dreary decades until Bill Snyder arrived in 1989 and began to engineer what many are calling the greatest turnaround of a football program in major college history.
Now, using won-loss percentage and total losses as the two measuring sticks, Kansas State appears to have escaped the all-time loser title and been replaced by Northwestern and Wake Forest.
On the last day of the 1996 regular season when Kansas
State beat Iowa State, the Wildcats won the spot of the most losses ahead of Wake Forest in percentage. Going into this season, Kansas State's winning percentage was .405, a shade behind Kent State's .406. Wake Forest's .397 was at the bottom.
Then three weeks ago, with no fanfare, Northwestern replaced Kansas State as holder of the most losses.
Kansas State, unbeaten going into its showdown tomorrow with Nebraska, still has 546 losses. But the Wildcats of Northwestern still are ahead of the Wildcats of Kansas State in winning percentage at .428 going into the year.
Going into this season,
Kansas State had lost 546
games and Northwestern 541.
Others in the neighborhood
were Wake Forest with 520
and Rutgers with 515.

Generator still powering Watson Library
New transformer was not installed
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Although Watson Library reopened at noon Saturday — a day earlier than was planned — its transformer problem has not been solved.
The library's attempt to install a new transformer this weekend failed, and no other date has been scheduled yet to replace the transformer. Watson was scheduled to be closed from noon Friday to noon yesterday for the replacement.
Watson has been operating on a generator since Oct. 30, a day after the library closed early because a transformer blew.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said he did not know when the transformer would be replaced. He said Lyons-based Lyons Electric,
which sold the transformer, was contacted and would check the transformer's problem.
Porter said that if the Lyons transformer was broken, the replacement would take longer because KU facilities operations would have to search for another transformer.
The generator uses 22 gallons of fuel each hour of operation, and each gallon costs 67 cents, totaling about $314 per day. Porter estimated that the University had spent more than $5,200 on the generator.
The Lyons transformer cost $6,000.
The Lyons transformer cost $10,000. Rob Melton, libraries publication coordinator, said that he did not know whether the transformer was working but that he would have more information today.
Because of safety reasons, the library will have to be closed for about 48 hours when the new transformer is installed, Porter said.
With finals and project deadlines approaching, some students are concerned about when the library will close
again.
"If they need to close it again, I think they should close it during Thanksgiving break," said Julia Santi, Mahtomedi, Minn., sophomore. "Definitely. The weekend after Thanksgiving wouldn't be a good time."
Kathleen Darragh, Chicago junior, said that it would not bother her if Watson needed to be closed again.
"Students should use their weeknights to come here and get their work done ahead of time," she said. "That is what I did."
Building a great university
This chart is the final element in the Kansan's 10-part series about the goals and achievements of the University since Chancellor Robert Hemenway came to the University in 1995. In the grid, student, faculty and staff leaders examine the University's progress in 10 different areas and assign letter grades. The grades range from an A, which signifies excellence in a given area, to F, which signifies a failure of the University to meet that goal.
University Report Card
Grades are given in the this order.
1. Recruit more minority students and faculty.
2. Increase research funding to $120 million.
4. Recruit 100 freshmen national student each year.
4. Enhance the Regents Center at Edwards Campus.
6. Ensure a quality international experience for students and faculty, including study abroad, teaching abroad or research fellowships.
4. Enhance the Regents Center at Eauclair Campus.
5. Enhance patient cars at the University of Kansas
7. Increase the number of women faculty; allow employees to take classes.
8. Crumbling Classroom program; restlocate money for
9. Streamline the administration, reengineer
10. Increase the faculty salaries by 25% by realocation of University money and state appropriation.

"I think the University is doing an OK job of taking initiative in the some areas, but many times the University has left others out of the decision-making process, particularly students."

"In terms of having more women, one-half of all the hires in the last eight years have been women. It takes a long time to change, but if we keep doing this, then over a 20-year period we'll reach our goal."

Manhattan celebrations lure Jayhawks

down goal-post was paraded around the town and Aggieville was blocked off for the occasion.
"It was totally out of control when we got there," he said. "The place was crazy, and police were everywhere."
Duncan said that he had fun, but because there were so many people, it was hard to get into the bars.
Matt Duncan, Olathe junior, said that he and three friends also made the road trip to Manhattan Saturday night.
Kruse said that he would have gone for the game, too, but tickets were scaled for up to $500.
"It's pretty cool that K-State won, but I don't really care," Kruse said. "I just wanted to party."
According the Kansas State Collegian, there were more than 50 alcohol-related offences reported in Riley County Saturday night and early Sunday morning.
With additional protection from a team of KU Public Safety officers, police worked to enforce Aggleville's no-alcohol policy.
The Riley County police department had its hands full with the football hoopla.
The Collegian also confirmed that street signs had been torn down around Manhattan but that there had been no major disturbances or injuries as a result.

"Those announcers were awful," he said. "They kept saying the K-State Jayhawks instead of the Wildcats. They couldn't figure it out."
Kruse also said that KU spirit was prevalent, even during the Manhattan parties.
"We walked past a house party near Aggieville, and we heard a bunch of people singing the Rock Chalk Chant," he said. "Don't you just love KU fans?"
KU professor files suit against fellow teacher
University, Regents involved in action
By Keith Burner
Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas professor has filed suit against the University, the Kansas Board of Regents and another KU professor, claiming harassment.
According to the suit, Dimitrios Dendrinos is taking legal action because of assaults, both physical and verbal, that he said he had endured since 1987 at the University. He became a faculty member in 1975.
Dendrinos, professor of architecture and urban design, would not comment. Andrew Marquardt, his Lenexa attorney, could not be reached for comment.
In the suit, filed Oct. 22 in Douglas County District Court, Dendrinos claimed that he had received threats and insults, some of which were ethnic slurs, from fellow professor James Mayo and other department members.
Neither Mayo nor his lawyer could be reached for comment.
John Gaunt, dean of architecture and urban design, said that he had ample time to observe conflicts between Mayo and Dendrinos.
but would not comment on specifics.
"It's a lawsuit that I haven't seen," he said. "I'm well aware of the relationship between the two, but I don't think it's appropriate to discuss it at this time."
Dendrinos, a native of Greece, is suing on 10 separate counts, ranging from assault to defamation, and is asking for $750,000.
This is not the first legal action taken by Dendros against Mayo.
Lawrence police said that last year, Dendrin reported that he was the victim of a battery at the hands of Mayo, but the incident could not be proven or completely verified by witnesses. Mayo was not charged.
in the lawsuit, Dendrinards claims that he then reported the incident to the University, which responded by not giving him promotions and raises due him, but by giving him poor performance evaluations and by adding unreasonably to his course load.
According to the Fall 1998 Timetable of classes, Dendrinos is teaching two courses this semester. Rose Marino, KU associate general counsel, could not be reached for comment.
The lawsuit also claims that Mayo is a violent man and that University administrators knew about it but failed to provide a safe working environment for Dendrinos.
The lawsuit also includes allegations of intimidation, civil-rights violations and infliction of emotional distress.
Diwali festival lights up night
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
The Kansas Union Ballroom came alive with a rainbow of colors and lively song and dance Saturday night as about 250 people celebrated East Indian culture and the Hindu holiday of Diwali.
Diwali, also known as the festival of lights, is based on Hindu mythology in which good triumphs against evil. It commemorate the victory of good, Hindus light up the night once a year on Diwali.
Traditional holiday activities include lighting lanterns and firecrackers, partaking of feasts and reveling at parties. Many Hindus also observe Diwali with religious ceremonies and prayers.
The KU Cultural India Club organized the Diwali activities at the University of Kansas. Students and faculty, as well as community members, were invited to participate in a dinner at Ecumenical Christian Ministries and the festival in the union ballroom.
Murali Yellepeddy, Rajahmundry, India, graduate student and club vice president, said that Diwali actually was on Oct. 19 this year, but that the club chose to celebrate the day later. He hoped the events would help connect the Indian population here and connect the culture with the community. There were more than 100 Indian students at the University in 1997.
"There is just a real joy and happiness with this holiday," Yellepeddy said.

Water line replacement to disconnect water
Residents who live north of Memorial Stadium will have their water service temporarily disconnected during the week because of water line replacement construction.
Starting today, crews will begin work along Illinois Street from 11th to Eighth streets and along 11th Street from Mississippi to Maine streets.
The City of Lawrence is spending $188,168 to replace old water mains, said Debbie Van Saun, assistant director of utilities.
Van Saun said residents would be notified by construction crews when their water service would be disconnected and the temporary disconnection would occur only when the new service lines were connected to each residence.
Crews will be working this week between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Construction work will occur mainly off the street and should not disrupt traffic.

Mob storms into store,
steals merchandise
A Lawrence convenience store was swarmed by a crowd of people early Friday morning, resulting in the theft of several items and a half-hour of chaos.
The incident began about 1:30 a.m. at ASAP, 1030 N. Third St., when about 50 people entered the store.
A 22-year-old employee was the only one there at the time, said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Wheeler said that the people began getting rowdy and throwing items around the store.
Wheeler said that the mob then began throwing packs of cigarettes out the front door.
"He was struck in the face with a muffin and on the back with an empty cup," he said.
"Others were just walking around eating sandwiches and drinking pop without paying," he said.
When the crowd left about 2 a.m., the man called his manager, who called the police.
Police said the mob stole $475 worth

of store property, including five stacks of firewood.
No arrests have been made, but police have yet to look at surveillance tape.

"The current SUA logo has been around since 1988," said Sue Buckley, Kansas & Burge Unions program manager. "It is placed on every piece of advertising or promotion that SUA uses."
The first SUA logo was developed in the 1970s. Since then, the logo has changed only once.
"The logo served its purpose very well," said Jeff LaCroix, Vice President for University Relations. "The millennium is approaching, and we want to spice things up."
The competition is open to all KU students. Each student may submit up to three designs.
"The SUA logo is arguably one of the most visible student organization logos on campus." LaCroix said.
He said that the competition would offer good exposure to graphic-design students.

Woman charged with harboring an escapee
OLATHE — An Overland Park woman was charged with letting one of the six men who escaped from the Wyandotte County Jail last weekend hide in her house.
Park is accused of harboring Carsey Littlewood, 21, one of six maximum-security prisoners who fled in Kansas City. Kan., late on Nov. 7.
The charge was filed Saturday against Doreen Park, 44, who was released on $10,000 bond.
The only inmate still at large is Cleveland Henderson, 24, who was in jail awaiting trial on six counts of aggravated robbery.

Indian KU students celebrate Diwali
Continued from page 1A
The festival included traditional and modern Indian music, dancing and clothing. Indian students also participated in a fashion show.
One highlight of the evening was a Bhangra dance from the Indian state of Punjab. In the Bhangra, eight male dancers energized the crowd with their performance. Surya Krishna, Lawrence Simon, said the
Suzy Davis, Lawrence senior, said the Bhangra was her favorite act.
"It was upbeat and colorful." Davis said.
"The guys were having a great time."
She said she was pleased about the good turnout of people at the festival who were not Indian.
"A lot of people at KU are interested in multicultural events," she said. "It is one reason I like it here so much."
Sarah Mai, Kansas City, Kan. senior, sald she was invited by Davis to attend the event. She enjoys multicultural events because she learns about music and traditions from other parts of the world and incorporates them into her life.
Mai first encountered Bhanga and Indian culture at the spring Festival of Nations sponsored by the International Student Association. She encouraged other students to enrich their lives with foreign cultures through activities such as these.
"It's not every day these events occur," Mai said. "But at KU, it's very easy to see and hear the richness of different cultures."
Jesal Munsif, Shawnee senior, modeled Indian clothing during the fashion show. She said the experience was awesome.
"The crowd was great." Munsif said. "That was special because to us this holiday is a celebration like New Year's or Christmas."
The only major glitch in the celebration was the technical difficulties with the sound equipment in the ballroom. Problems rang- ing from no amplified sound at all to prolonged, shrill feedback interrupted the festival several times.

Recycling holiday prompts cleanup
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
About 60 students walking on campus this weekend were doing more than just enjoying the view.
They were collecting trash and recyclable materials that littered the University of Kansas campus.
Ten student organizations volunteered to participate in a campus cleanup Saturday in honor of America Recycles Day.
Victoria Silva, environmental specialist for Research Observation and Recycling and the cleanup's coordinator, said that she was pleased about the number of students who volunteered and that she hoped the cleanup would make more students aware of the consequences of littering.
"I thought it was a really great opportunity for the student groups to get together and do something for the environment," Silva said. "I think that the cleanup has also created an awareness for students. Hopefully, it will make people think twice before throwing newspapers and trash on the ground."
There were 21 sections of campus that needed cleaning, Silva said. These included the areas along Jayhawk Boulevard, the surrounding areas of campus buildings and parking lots. Of those sections, seven were not covered because of a lack of student volunteers.
Silva said these were the areas around Robinson and Watkins Memorial Health centers, the Dole Human Development Center and Malott Hall, the Art and Design Building, Dyche Hall and the Kansas Union, Smith Hall, Spencer Museum of Art and its adjoining parking lot, and the facilities operations area.
Matt Dunbar, KU Environs coordinator, said he thought the cleanup was a good opportunity for organizations to spend time together.
"I thought it worked out really well because everyone seemed to have a great time," Dunbar said. "It was also a good way to get student groups out of a meeting to do something nice for the environment."
Stacy Brase, Lenexa junior,
agreed about the cleanup's benefits.
"It's good that people go through and pick trash up because everyone's pretty careless with it," Brase

said.
Silva said the University would continue the cleanup on the second
Friday of each month. She said she hoped that the groups who already have volunteered to help will continue to cover their sections of campus.
Other campus areas that need the most attention include the area around Robinson Center, the tennis courts and the yellow parking lot south of Robinson Center, Silva said.
Melissa Coleman, chairman of the Environmental Studies Student Association, said she hoped more students would step in and help clean some of the areas that were missed.

KU women meet to discuss unity across campus
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
Women at the University of Kansas said they needed to reach across organization lines and support one another to achieve unity.
A panel of women students and faculty discussed unity at the University with about 60 audience members yesterday at the fourth annual Women's Leadership Conference. The conference, which was sponsored by the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, was held in the Kansas Union from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.
The panel included Aida Garcia, social chair of the Hispanic American Leadership Organization; Tamara Lewis, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs; Ericka Morris, a member of the National Pan-Hellenic Council;
Mary Ann Rnasak, director of the Student Development Center; and Libby Sigg, president of the Panhellenic Association.
The panel was mediated by Kathy Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, and included input from the audience. The women focused on the challenges and rewards of being a woman in a leadership position and the question of how to unite the women on campus.
Morris said that women faced the challenge of battling the stereotypes of men and women in authority. Men are supposed to be aggressive, whereas women are expected to be more caring. Panel and audience members said that often women who were aggressive leaders were called negative names.
"When we're demanding, we may be called the b-word, but don't be afraid of that," said Andreaura Albott, Topeka senior. "If you're called the b-word, then wear it proudly, because you're showing your strength."
Lewis said that women should respect each other by standing up for one another when people did make negative comments.
To become unified, women from different organizations needed to get to know each other, Sigg said.
"I really feel like the reason we work at cross purposes is because we don't know a lot about each other," she said.
Rasnak said that different groups should communicate via email or other methods to be able to work together effectively.
"There is a great deal more strength in numbers, but you have to be able to communicate," she said.
Laura Weissert, St. Louis senior, and Katie Zook, Arvada, Colo., junior, said that they would like more women's programs on campus, including speakers.
Welissert said that she never had been discriminated against, but hearing speakers such as datee- lecture lecturer Katie Koestner made her realize that problems exist.
"That makes it personal because it could happen to you," she said.

Privatization of foster care system could be a mistake for Kansas
In 1996, Kansas digressed from the trodden path by becoming the first state to privatize completely child welfare services. Two years later, this unprecedented, experimental move has not turned out as well as state legislators predicted.
Recently, researchers at the KU Beach Center on Families and Disability received a $3.2 million federal grant to study the effects of privatization on the foster care system. Their findings may paint a grim picture.
indigenous children. Almost 5,000 children are scattered in group homes, hospitals or with often-temporary foster parents under the umbrella of the state's foster care system. To rid itself of the alleged headaches and costs associated with operating the system, the state shifted responsibility for foster care to private agencies that run the social service as a profit-oriented business.
The implications of handing over helpless children to a business venture should have been telling enough to force the state to stick with a government-run system, but the financial liabilities, difficulties and costs of providing efficient foster care services seemed — from the state's perspective
— to outweigh any resulting disadvantages.
Admittedly, the state did not possess an impressive track record in its operation of the foster care system. But this did not mean that it was incapable of creating an efficient system through the application of additional funds and efforts. Furthermore, there is no evidence that privatization has achieved either increased efficiency or higher quality of care.
The conservative ideology that private is better than public was undoubtedly a driving force in the privatization of child welfare services. But whatever led the state to get out of
The University received a $3.2 million grant to study the effects of privatization.
the business of providing human services — whether it was politics or just a shifting of the buck to hold down costs and sidestep responsibility — it may prove to have more disadvantages than benefits.
The managed care approach to foster care creates limitations. First, private agencies have only a limited amount of money and cannot afford to run the system on a deficit. The agencies are restricted by the set amount of government subsidization they receive.
When the system was state-run, significant pressure could force the state to allocate additional money through supplemental appropriations or a transfer of funds. The bottom line is that the state's primary responsibility was to ensure the children received proper care, while business-oriented private agencies' primary goal, whether explicit or implicit, is to rake in profits.
A parallel example of the disadvantages of privatization is apparent by the severe criticism directed at the managed care health care market.
Although this health care system generally has increased efficiency and removed bureaucratic red tape, the profit-driven motives of private health care agencies force them to cut and contain costs, and consumers (in the case of foster care, the children) often come out on the short end of the deal.
A second problem with privatization is the relinquishment of accountability. It is almost impossible to hold a private agency accountable for bluders within the system that may result in harm to the children or families. On
the other hand, in a state-run system, legal remedies are clear and easily can be implemented to ensure accountability, a key factor in any system of social welfare.
The private agencies receive roughly $13,000 to $15,000 per child, per year. This amount is only minimally sufficient, if at all, for the proper care of a child. And only a percentage of this allocation finally funnels down to the group homes or foster parents.
The ultimate goal is to remove as many children as possible from the foster care system. Besides the obvious reasons for trying to minimize the foster population, studies have proven that children in foster care generally perform at a lower levels than their peers in school and are less likely to attend college.
Other states have taken the more moderate road by establishing regionally privatized programs on a small scale instead of full-fledged privatization. These states are watching intently while Kansas uses its foster children as guinea pigs by throwing the whole system to the business-oriented wolves. Other states should not hold their breath.
The state's goal of reintegrating 680 children with their biological parents within 60 days of their placement in the foster care system has been a miserable failure under privatization. The system is operating only on a 20 percent success rate.
But the question is: Which can reach these goals in a more humane manner — a private or state entity? Evidence points to the fact that a system of state-run social services actually might work better. Perhaps the state should re-evaluate privatization and pull some responsibility from private agencies before the going gets too rough.

War on drugs overlooks need for love, programs
A musclebound man in uniform wrapped his arm around me in an elementary school library.
"Hey, kid, you want some drugs?" he said with a smile.
"No, my parents told me it was wrong, so I don't do drugs," I said with a self-conscious giggle.
"Come on, just try it, it's no big deal."
---
"No. No. No. No." I used the broken record technique, and my fifth-grade class broke into the joyous first verse of the "Just Say No" theme song — a glorious ode to my drug education.
John Wilson
ponior@kansan.com
The billions of dollars poured into our generation's drug education
taught me how to "Just Say No" to a uniformed policeman in the middle of a library. That makes so much sense in the real world—and the advocates against drugs wonder why we can't stop the drug problem.
Our drug education hardly serves as evidence of progress in our War On Drugs. We learned the "cold shoulder" and "repeated refusal" techniques. We learned that all drugs are bad without being educated as to what a drug actually is.
They said it always would be easy to "Just Say No." Do our government officials ever walk through the real world, or do they merely propose programs to make the tax payers think something is being done?
"Sorry our simplistic programs don't work, but at least we're trying."
That's not good enough. How do those powerful people in charge of the government's antidrug organizations want us to react when our best friend offers us a joint?
Guess they never quite thought that far.
Guess they never quite quote us. Our generation was bombarded with several well-intentioned anti-drug programs, such as Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" and former Los Angeles Police Chief Daryl Gates' D.A.R.E. program. The D.A.R.E. program has become the chief avenue for educating our nation's youth.
with more than half of American school districts involved.
D. A.R.E., or Drug Abuse Resistance Education, was formed in 1983 and involves police officers coming into the schools and teaching a 17-session program. Journalists have estimated the program costs $700 million each year, much of which comes from our tax dollars.
National trends still point toward more drug use among the vouth.
The U.S. government launched a $2 billion anti-drug media program last summer designed, as President Clinton said, to knock America upside the head about the drug problem.
From a drug addict shaking on the floor in a bathroom to a girl bashing apart her home with a frying pan (a lame reference to the earlier egg-frying-in a pan commercials), the ads suggest that the government continues to use the same old ineffective techniques: Scare the hell out of the dumb public with nonsensical demonization without addressing why people take drugs in the first place.
I propose a more comprehensive approach than the zero tolerance/D.A.R.E.babble. Use the wasted billions to improve inner-city schools and offer college and trade school scholarships. Give people hope, and give them positive alternatives.
families need help, and our lives need to be better. Friends of mine that abuse drugs started using because they were unhappy. They use drugs to numb themselves. Mere education isn't going to help those people.
The heap of D.A.R.E. money should be used to both educate the masses about drug use and give more people a chance at success. We must show children that no matter what anyone teaches them, it is their decision whether to take a drug. We should offer compassion rather than alienating the people who need us most.
This is where we will save people. Self-esteem and happiness can't be built on superficial drug training. We have to mature as a nation and offer youth programs that work in the real world that we live in.
Then, we'll be a lot closer to winning our War On Drugs.

in fourth grade, I tried taking French, but I just didn't pick up on it too well; I didn't learn a thing.

Whatever the cause of my difficulty, they took me out of French class and stuck me in creative writing instead.

in sixth grade. I started taking Spanish. In that class I at least learned a little — like
least feel new it time—like how to ask what time it is, and how to order food in a restaurant. But that was too bland and boring for me. To make Spanish more fun, I added some words from the Spanish dictionary to my vocabulary. It's interesting how four-letter words are usually five or six letters in Spanish. My teacher didn't agree.
my sophomore year in high school, I had to choose which foreign language in which enroll. I had taken three years of Spanish in middle school, but because I could only order tacos or insult people, I was pretty much starting from scratch, anyway. Instead of continuing on with Spanish, I decided to try out German. I'm of German descent, and I thought maybe getting in touch with my heritage might make learning the language more interesting.
The first semester of German was fine; it was mainly a review of what little I had learned in high school. The second semester, though, was just too difficult for me. It went at a much faster pace, and I just couldn't keep up.
For a while, I was captivated, and I did fine. I could order up a bratwurst and beer with the best of them. However, the newness wore off. Soon I was just copying my class work off the freshman who sat next to me and drawing obscene graffiti in my textbook. After being in German class for three years, I was set free by graduating high school. I headed up to the University of Kansas.
I know that to my bachelor's degree, I'm going to have to complete one language or another to the fourth level. Seeing as how languages are so hard for me, I know it will be difficult. I think next year I'll try French — it's supposed to be easier than German, and my brother is practically fluent, so I can always call him for help.
It's not that I'm a quitter; it's just that I could have done so much better in that class if there had been a nice high school freshman in there to copy off of.
During orientation, they asked me which level of German class I wanted to enroll in. I told them I had taken three years of it in high school. They asked me if I had mastered something called "dative." I told them I didn't know what that was. They stuck me in the beginning class.
I just wish I could bring in a high school freshman to copy off of.
I dropped out the last day I could without get ting a Won my report card.

Feedback
Hollywood not fairly portrayed
I read the article about Lawrence's theaters in the Kansan and most of the statements are uninformed opinions or just incorrect.
It needs to be understood that Hollywood Theaters did not close down Hillcrest to spite students or the community. The owner of the building would not help with air conditioning repairs nor was he willing to decrease the monthly rent of the building to help offset necessary repairs for the building. When a company can not make a profit on an establishment, the only logical thing to do is to close for business.
May I remind students that the Hillcrest Theaters was not a dollar theater until Hollywood Theaters bought it. This was intended to be a better
deal for the community since the Cinema Twin only had two screens compared to the five screens the Hillcrest had to offer.
The Hillcrest, and other theaters for that matter, show very little or no profit when people insist on trying to bring in their own food. The admission prices go to the movie companies while concessions go to the theater company.
Actors get their money from somewhere, don't people know it comes from their pockets when they go see a movie? I didn't hear students complaining that Jim Carrey got $20 million per movie. This is why admission is so high.
And as far as the article stating that only small towns can get away with an increase in admission prices, when was the last time you went to the coast to see a movie? Big cities
charge between $7 and $9 for a ticket.
The price increases would be of bigger concern if movie going was a necessity. If you can't afford to see every movie that comes out, wait to rent it or simply don't watch the movie. I can't afford the time or the money, so I pick and choose what I would like to see. Companies are not obligated to give student discounts, so be happy, or at least content, with the discount offered.
The dollar theater was nice, but as a former employee at the Hillcrest Theatres, I can assure you that customers still had consistent complaints about the Hillcrest prices or lack of "newer" movies.

Panel discussion includes revivals script changes

Directors who change scripts risk having the productions shut down, said Scott Ellis, Broadway director, who led a panel discussion about theater and film at Border's Books and Music.
About 50 people attended the panel discussion about musical theater with Ellis on Saturday in the Border's coffee shop, 700 New Hampshire St.
Others on the panel with Ellis were John Stanlunas, assistant professor of theater and film and director of University Theatre's production of Oklahoma! Chuck Berg, professor of theater and film; John Tibbetts, assistant professor of theater and film and Paul Roth, director of the American Heartland Theater.
The panel discussion was part of the Rodgers and Hammerstein Festival sponsored by the Lied Center and the University Theatre.
The five panelists opened the event by discussing the new wave of theatrical revivals and how directors can change a script without altering the meaning of the original story.
Staniunas said that directors always received the original version of the show and that directors were not supposed to change the
script. If changes are made, directors risk having their productions shut down.
Ellis pointed out that Broadway directors faced the same difficulties in changing a script as the directors who work in other parts of the country. But, Ellis said,
Broadway directors had the advantage of being able to walk into the agencies' offices and ask for approval.
He said that directors should be careful that changes they make do not completely alter the original meaning of the play.
Ellis said that several theater people in New York questioned whether it was appropriate to have so many revival performances.
The panel also discussed the rivalry between the film and theater industries. Film professors said that film could emphasize some aspects of the script that the theater could not. Theater directors argued that because theater is a live performance, the audience can appreciate the production more.
"I don't care how great a film is, there is nothing like seeing something live," Ellis said. "You cannot get this connection with film."
Pence said he preferred cinema to theater.
Ray Pence, Lawrence graduate student, said, "I think it's positive for the community to have panels and open it to the public so they can interact and meet those who create the productions."
"First, cinema is available to more people; and I also think that cinema can be more emotionally moving than a live play," Pence said.
The festival will continue throughout this week. Tonight, Berg will show the movie version of Oklahoma!, and the cast of the University show will sing some of the musical selections. The event will start at 7 in the Lied Center and is free.
Also during the week, high school students can participate in two workshops with KU professors.
The festival will close with a performance of The King and I on Saturday in the Lied Center.
KU professor perfecting wireless modems
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
The future for technology now lies in a modem that would not rely on phone lines.
Faster Internet access is right around the corner.
Joseph Evans, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science, works to perfect these wireless modems.
"Really what I'm doing is studying the performance of the system and finding better ways to provide service," Evans said.
Devices would lead to faster Internet use
"It's 500 times faster than the dial-up modem," Evans said.
One of the advantages of the modern would be its speed, he said.
Because of its speed, Internet access also would be quicker.
"I think there's a place for all this technology," Evans said. "This will be a piece of the pie."
Although the new modern has its advantages, it is also quite expensive.
Evans said that if an individual were to put this type of modem together, the parts for the modem would cost about $1,500.
The goal is to get the price of the modem down to the price of the cost of a cellular phone, he said.
Research on the wireless modem began in 1993 by Adaptive Broadband Limited, which is located in Cambridge, England.
During the 1966-1997 school year,
Evans went on a sabbatical to
Cambridge to work with Adaptive Broadband Limited on its modern project.
The wireless modem essentially would operate in a way similar to a cellular phone.
Like the cellular phone, the wireless modem has an antenna attached to it. This antenna would receive signals from a tower, Evans said.
The University has an established center that has been doing research in this area since the 1980s, said Victor Frost, distinguished professor of electrical engineering and computer science.
"It's a large operation," he said.
"Joe's a big piece of one of them."
Wireless modems are among the many advances of access technology being developed.
People also are proposing ways to get data across power lines.
"There is a market pull for this stuff," Frost said. "People want it."
The University of Kansas has had similar projects like this in the past, Evans said.
MODEM MANIA
This company has provided Evans with a two-year grant worth $150,000 to enable him to research the modems further.
Going online has become a necessity for many University of Kansas students. With the array of information available on the Internet, students surf the Web to find sources for papers or just for fun. Joseph Evans, associate professor of electrical engineering and computer science, is researching wireless modems.

Scientists investigate woodchucks
KU professor to study their sleeping patterns
By Jamie Knodel Special to the Kansan
There are other questions about wood-chucks besides how much wood they can chuck.
Three scientists, one of them from the University of Kansas, are working to discover how woodchucks, a member of the marmot family, can survive their solitary hibernation.
Ken Armitage, KU professor emeritus of biological sciences, has been researching marmots for more than 35 years. The woodchuck is different from most other marmots, a family including ground hogs, because woodchucks do not lead social lives. Armitage said.
"Because they do not live in groups, they do not hibernate in groups like other marmots." Armitage said.
By hibernating in groups, most marmots conserve energy during the winter. Hudding together, the animals do not lose a lot of heat, and they burn less fat to maintain their body temperatures.
"Social animals are more physiologically efficient." Armitage said.
If woodchucks are not as efficient and need to burn more fat than other marmots, how do they manage to survive hibernation?
The research team thinks that size and length of hibernation give woodchucks the advantage they need to survive solitary hibernation.
Armitage, along with former KU graduate student Carmen Salsbury, from Albright College in Reading, Penn., and Stan Zervanos, from Pennsylvania State University-Berks, is monitoring woodchucks during this year's hibernation period to find out their body temperature fluctuations.
"This is the first time that this type of research has been conducted both in the natural habitat and in the lab," Armitage said.
Salsbury said that she and Zervanos would be evaluating the body and burrow temperatures of 10 woodchucks in the wild in Reading, Penn. Armitage will be monitoring five lab woodchucks taken from Reading, which are now on the KU campus. He will watch the animals' body temperatures and the oxygen consumption levels. The lab will be kept at a constant temperature of $44.6\mathrm{F}$.
"By using animals from the same local population, we will be able to isolate the differences seen in the results,"
Last week, radio transmitters were placed in the KU woodchucks' abdominal cavity. The transmitters will record their body temperatures.
Armitage said.
This research will be conducted from early November through March, the woodchuck's natural hibernation period.
The woodchuck is among the largest of the marmots. Therefore, they have higher levels of body fat than most marmots. The hibernation period for the woodchuck typically extends over a three-and-a-half to four-and-a-half month period. This is among the shortest hibernating time for marmots. Some sleep as long as nine months, but the length depends on the species.
Armitage said that this research combined both climatic and physiological testing. The research team hopes to determine exactly what type of temperature conditions woodchucks select for hibernation.
By monitoring the Pennsylvania burrow temperatures, the researchers hope to be able to determine whether woodchucks choose mild climates for hibernation. Armitage said.
If lab temperatures prove to be too severe and the animals' stored-fat levels drop to much, Armitage said that they would be fed and not allowed to die.
Arafat comments called 'declaration of war'
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat yesterday hinted at armed conflict with Israel, warning darkly that "our rifle is ready," and repeating that he will declare statehood next year.
A senior adviser to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said a Arafat's comments were a "declaration of war on the peace process." David Bar-Ilan told The Associated Press that Netanyahu "views such statements with the utmost severity," and would bring them up when his Cabinet meets later this week.
The escalation of rhetoric
came as U.S. envoy Dennis Ross sought to jump-start the latest Middle East peace accord.
Soldiers and protesters clashed when a group of Palestinians tried to prevent a bulldozer from beginning work on a bypass road for Jewish settlers. The road will require the confiscation of 40 acres of Arab land in al-Khader, near Bethlehem.
About 30 soldiers beat back 20 protesters, who responded with a hall of stones. Soldiers shot rubber bullets and tear gas canisters into the crowd.
Ross met with Israeli officials and with negotiators from both sides. Palestinian officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the three-way meeting produced a loose timetable for implementation this week.
Committees dealing with economics, a Palestinian safepassage route and seaport are to begin meeting Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday, the sides open critical final status talks. Thursday, the Palestinians will be shown Israel's withdrawal maps, and by Friday's end, Israel will have pulled its troops from an initial 2 percent of land.
Israeli Foreign Minister Ariel Sharon said Arafat's comments made it "difficult to conduct negotiations" and reiterated that Israel would annex the areas of the West
Bank it holds if Arafat declares a Palestinian state.
Palestinian officials indicated Arafat's strong language came in response to Israeli annexation threats and as a result of the delay in implementing the withdrawal agreement. The first pullback had been slated for Monday, but Israel said it would be delayed for several days.
Speaking to members of his Fatah faction in the West Bank town of Ramalah, Arafat said, "We will declare our state on the 4th of May next year. This is our right."
Netanyahu said that Arafat's comments cast a "very dark shadow" over the peace process.
Medical schools welcome students of varied majors
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Students may think they need to major in biology or chemistry to make it into medical school, but that is not the case.
"There is no such thing as a typical undergraduate major," said Paul Crosby, pre-health professions adviser in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. "I have worked with students who were accepted by a medical school with architecture, business, journalism, education and fine arts degrees."
The Association of American Medical Colleges reported that 53 percent of students who majored in philosophy entered medical school in 1997.
Crosby said he advised premedical students to remain open initially about their major. He said the key, regardless of the major, was to build a foundation of the required courses, including biology, chemistry and physics.
Gregory Andrews, physician, lawyer and author of "Achieving the Doctor Dream: The Complete Guide to Premedical Success," also said a science major was not crucial.
"If someone is an English pre-medical major, as long as he or she does well in the basic core courses, that person can compete and study just as hard as biology majors," Andrews said.
Jason McKinney, Olathe junior and pre-medical student, said that although it was true that medical schools accept students with a variety of majors, science was important.
"Students who have a strong foundation in science would be able to absorb more in medical school and would be better doctors." he said.
Both Crosby and Andrews said students also need interpersonal skills for relating to patients as medical students and eventually physicians.
"The art of medicine is knowing how to talk to a patient and how to be compassionate and empathetic," Andrews said.
Once the core classes have been taken,premedical students face competition for acceptance into medical

school. However, students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences fared well last year.
Ninety-four out of 186 students who applied to medical school in 1997 listing the University of Kansas as their primary undergraduate institution were accepted — a 51 percent acceptance rate, Crosby said. The national average for acceptance is 40 percent.
Crosby said state residency increases students' chances for acceptance into medical school. Of the 165 students who listed the University as their primary undergraduate school when applying to the University of Kansas Medical School in 1997, 77 were accepted, and 65 actually enrolled that fall.
In addition, KU premedical students are bucking a national trend in a decreasing number of students applying to medical school.
In the fall of 1997, 769 students in the college were enrolled as pre-medical students. The number increased to 893 students this fall. Crosby attributed the increase to KU students having more interest in attending medical school.
He said the number of students applying to medical school nationally has decreased in the last two years and attributed that partly to the managed health-care systems that are now commonplace.

Starr to face Congress' scrutiny
Prosecutor's tactics draw critics' protests
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — For the first time in his four-year investigation, Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr publicly will lay out his case against President Clinton — in a congressional forum riven with partisan politics.
Starr's motives and tactics, as much as the president's actions, will be the focus of the House Judi-
Clary Committee hearing set for Thursday.
Democrats plan to portray the independent counsel as a right-wing prosecutor on a rampage against Clinton in concert with the pres
B. T. BURKE
ident's political opponents. For Republicans, the hearing represents the best opportunity for Starr to make his case forcefully against Clinton.
Starr: Will go before a congressional panel.
In his impeachment report to the House, Starr accused the president
of 11 offenses that he considers impeachable and said there was a pattern of lies by Clinton and his loyalists in the Monica Lewinsky case.
"I think his actions deserve all the scrutiny he's getting, but I'm not at all sure Starr won't do well," said former Iran-Contra prosecutor Lawrence Walsh, a strong critic of Starr for pursuing the Lewinsky allegations.
Starr is no stranger to tough questions in a tense environment. As President Bush's solicitor general, he took them for years from Supreme Court justices. Nonetheless, he is considered vulnerable on several points:
— He investigated the Lewinsky matter before getting authorization from the Justice Department, having Lewinsky's friend, Linda Tripp, wear a body wire Jan. 13 to record a conversation with the former intern. Starr could defend the action as within his discretion as a prosecutor, even though Attorney General Janet Reno didn't approve an expansion until Jan. 16.
— When Starr's prosecutors confronted Lewinsky Jan. 16, she asked to speak to her lawyer. Fearful that targets of their probe might be tipped off, Starr's investigators told Lewinsky that any deal for immunity from prosecution would
Clinton Investigation
be null and void if she called her attorney. Justice Department regulations say a person's lawyer must be present for discussions involving an immunity deal.
Tripp, the prosecutor's star witness, who triggered the Lewinsky probe by secretly taping the former intern's admissions of a presidential affair, is herself under scrutiny. Starr is probing whether her tapes were tampered with and whether Tripp lied about them when she testified the tapes she turned over to prosecutors were originals. The FBI has concluded some of the tapes are duplicates.
— After working with Starr's office, Tripp provided specifics about Lewinsky's relationship with Clinton to Paula Jones' lawyers, who then caught the president off guard with detailed questions when he testified in the lawsuit Jan. 17. Democrats wonder why Starr's office didn't stop Tripn from talking to outsiders. Some Democratic critics have suggested Starr may have tried to entrap the president.
Clinton: Iraq must accept inspections
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Iraq narrowly avoided punishing military strikes by dropping its defiance of the United Nations, but it now must cooperate with U.N. weapons inspectors, without conditions, President Clinton said yesterday.
"Iraq has backed down, but that is not enough. Now Iraq must live up to its obligations," Clinton said in a morning appearance in the White House briefing room yesterday.
If Saddam Hussein's government fails to keep its word, overwhelming force remains an option, the president
warned. "We remain ready to act," he said.
"The return of the inspectors ... is the best outcome, because they have been and they remain the most effective tool to uncover, destroy and prevent Iraq from
The president said that Iraq must allow inspectors "unfettered access" to view any site they wish; it must turn over all relevant documents on chemical and biological weapons production; it must not interfere with the inspectors themselves.
1980
rebuilding its weapons of mass destruction and the missiles to deliver them," Clinton said.
Clinton: Said Iraq must comply unconditionally.
Clinton acknowledged that deep skepticism surrounds Saddam's promises, but he argued that holding back from a military strike is the best long-term strategy.
"If we take military action, we can significantly degrade Saddam Hussein's ability to develop weapons of mass destruction and to deliver them," Clinton said. "But that would also mark the end of UNSCOM," the inspection team.
Clinton said that U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan shares his understanding of Iraq's obligations.
At the United Nations, Annan said that Clinton's response "will be welcomed by the international community."
Iraq's first offer, which Berger rebuffed Saturday as unacceptable, was "perfectly unclear," Berger said. But after the rejection, he said, Saddam's government sent two additional letters that were very clearly written and dropped all conditions to weapons inspections. Iraq averted attack by mere hours.
He said that the U.S. military will "maintain a steady force" in the region "that is more than adequate to deal with Saddam Hussein."
Before Clinton's announcement, Iraq's ambassador to the United Nations, Nizar Hamdoon, said Iraq will cooperate fully with U.N. inspectors.
Hamdoon said that Hussein had stopped his government's cooperation with the inspectors out of frustration about U.N. economic sanctions against Iraq, but the resulting international pressure forced a change of strategy.
"We can now move ahead," said U.N. weapons inspections chief Richard Butter, interviewed on CNN. The team that departed Iraq last week remains in Bahrain and would be able to return to work within 24 hours, he said.
British Prime Minister Tony Blair consulted for hours with Clinton and U.N. officials.
By Thanksgiving, more than 4,000 additional Army troops, an aircraft-carrier battle group and a Marine amphibious task force are scheduled to arrive in the Persian Gulfregion.
The carrier USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and 22 other vessels already are there. The number of aircraft is to rise to almost 400 and the number of troops to nearly 45,000 men and women.

Lawrence Bar Band sounds off for the year
By Augustus Anthony Piazza Kansan staff writer
Every Friday night before the University of Kansas football team takes the Memorial Stadium field for battle on Saturday, horns blare, drum beat and cymbals crash at some local drinking establishments.
But bar patrons looking for the Lawrence Bar Band this weekend were out of luck because the home football season has ended.
For three years, the band has performed Friday nights at local bars.
The group of 13 musicians has played at The Sandbair, 117 E. Eighth St.; The Wheel Cafe, 14th and Ohio streets; and The Crossing Inc., 618 W. 12th St. The band tends to perform the
most at the Sandbar because the bar sponsors the band.
The band, which is composed of students and University of Kansas alumni, plays KU fight songs, the fight songs of other schools, the KU alma mater song Rock Chalk Jayhawk and Margaritaville by Jimmy Buffet.
The Bar Band, which doesn't get paid for its performances, was organized by Chad Dempsey, Maryville, Mo., senior.
Despite the presence of some KU band members in the group, Dempsey, the Bar Band director, said that the group was not affiliated with the University.
Pat Mushrush, bartender at the Sandbar, said that the band played for about 20 minutes.
"It gets people into the spirit of things." Mushrush said. "They come in, get on the bar counter and play fight songs and Margaritaville for us."
Mushrush said that the bar patrons often would sing the words to the songs as the band played.
Dempsey said that the members of the group had no aspirations to play at other times besides the Friday night before football games.
Mushrush said that he wanted to see the band expand their schedule to include weekend nights throughout the rest of the year.
"There has never been a bar band that played here," Mushrush said. "It would be kind of cool if they played every Friday night."
Brad Pitt doesn't save Joe Black from agony

The movie begins simply, focusing on Bill Parrish (Anthony Hopkins).
Kansan rating: **out of ***
Running time: 3 hours
Rated: "PG-13" for pranfity and 90 minutes of unnecessary footage

the owner of a media empire who's about to hit his 65th birthday. But Bill isn't ready to begin enjoying his golden years: He's on the verge of selling his business to a greedy competitor, and Parrish's oldest daughter (Marcia Gay Harden) continues to pester him with plans for his upcoming birthday gala.
As luck would have it, Parrish's bad heart kicks in, prompting a visit from the Grim Reaper (Brad Pitt), who just
peanut butter and falls in love with Parrish's other daughter (Claire Forlani).
As three-hour movies go, Meet Joe Black possesses a simplicity that at first is charming but gradually becomes frustrating. Director Martin
Brest (Scent of a Woman) has a fondness for long, static conversations between his characters. Character A will murmur a question, and Character B pauses for about 90 seconds before replying. Or worse, Character B might even repeat Character A's question, and the viewer's rear end grows ever tougher.
Parrish either is enlivened or depressed by Joe Black's presence; Hopkins' performance seems to suggest both, depriving the audience a chance to connect with his character.
Pitt is as watchable as ever, but he's playing an entity here instead of a true

character. I never believed that I was gazing upon the Angel of Death — the actor has just too earthy a personality.
The movie looks splendid, though, with vivid cinematography and sets that enhance Bill Parrish's excessive lifestyle. But Brest and his crew of four screenwriters can't find the balance between that and the New Age sappiness that accompanies Joe Black.
Meet Joe Black is not intense, engaging or even funny. I can't remember the last time a movie took so long to say so little.
Pitt 'searches' for answers amid life of fame
By Ric Leyva The Associated Press
NEW YORK - For Brad Pitt, it's all about "the search."
"The search for why you're here, what you're doing and who you are." he said.
And part of this search for self, he said, is that he refuses to make any excuses.
"It's hard not to believe the hype, the good and the bad," Pitt said. "It's hard not to get
"I don't know what fame is, first of all. I have no idea." Pitt said. "I could never have been prepared for it, for the mind games that come with it."
sucked into it, and if you get sucked into the good, it means you're going to get sucked into the bad."
When lightning struck, he was blinded.
"It was just a confusing, confusing time. And it's still confusing," he said. "People are telling you that you're much better than you certainly feel
and people are saying you're much worse than you certainly are. And you're just trying to find out who... you are."
Shunning the ease of playing stereotypical matinee heroes, Pit's work has ranged from the lovable but doomed fly fisherman of *A River Runs Through It* to the psychotic killer of *Kalifornia*. He was the babbling maniac of 12 Monkeys, for which he received an Academy Award nomination.
But his resume isn't always
what people want to talk — or read — about. It's his love life that lures readers.
Pitt is reluctant to discuss his personal life, fearing a repeat of what he went through with ex-fiancee Gwyneth Paltrow. A worldwide audience followed the couple's every move, at first sighing over their storybook romance, then clucking and wagging fingers over their sad breakup.
Now he's dating actress Jennifer Aniston.

Tarheels stomp Jayhawks in opener
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. — Kansas women's basketball co-captain Lynn Pride reads the play, makes her move and comes up with a nice steal in the North Carolina backcourt.
As Pride leads the Jayhawk fast break, she runs into a Tarheel defender and is called for her fourth personal foul, sending her to the bench and forcing Kansas to deal with a 17-point deficit without its All-American candidate.
And if that were not enough, as Pride found her seat next to coach Marian Washington, the announcer said, "foul on the Hawkeyes...
That's the kind of day it was for No. 8 Kansas in a 76-58 loss to No. 7 North Carolina at the State Farm tipoff Classic, held yesterday at Purdue.
"We were just out of sync out there," said senior Nakia Sanford, who scored 14 points and grabbed nine rebounds in the loss.

glass and a seven of 18 performance at the free throw line.
Kansas opened with a 21-14 lead before UNC called a timeout and answered with a 19-2 run that left the Jayhawks wondering what hit them.
After the Carolina spurt, Kansas never pulled within better than eight points of the lead.
Tarheel point guard Nikki Teasley had little trouble penetrating the Kansas defense. Although she finished with eight points, she drew a lot of defensive attention. It helped fellow guard Juana Brown to her game-high 27 points.
The game was played in front of near-capacity crowd and a national television audience on ESPN2, but Washington was not discouraged by the blowout.
"I really think this was probably the best thing that could happen to us," she said.
thing that happened to us because North Carolina took a similar beating last
year in a preseason tournament, losing 68-48 to then No. 9 Florida. The Tarheels responded with a 27-win season.
"Ims game will do them (Kansas) good," said UNC coach Sylvia Hatchell. "The game we lost last year, it really motivated us."
Washington is hoping for a similar response from her team.
"This game was our barometer as to what we need to do," she said. "It's opened our eyes to some things we need to work on. They hurt us on second and third opportunities off the glass."
That's one of the reasons why Carolina was able to dismantle the Jayhawks despite shooting 38 percent from the field.
Kansas was picked to win the Big 12 Conference and received preseason hype. Nobody will say the team thought winning would be easy. But Washington hopes now her players realize how much work is to be done.
"After this, at our practices our players aren't going to look at us like we don't know what we're talking about when we say we need to step up our intensity," she said.

Late run secures season's first win
Robertson sparks second-half surge in 80-66 victory against Gonzaga
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Robertson dominated defensively in the second half to lead Kansas against Gonzaga in an 80-66 win at Allen Field House.
If every 11-point game Ryan Robertson has this season is as impressive as the one Friday night, the No. 8 Jayhawks will have a solid base for a successful season.
"I was just looking at the stat sheet, and that may have been the biggest, or the most impressive 11-point game Ryan Robertson's ever had," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "He really made big baskets for us and he was tremendous defensively."
The Jayhawks struggled against the Bulldogs in the first half, shooting only 35 percent from the field and turning the ball over seven times.
After staying momentarily to acknowledge former Jayhawks Paul Pierce, Raef LaFrentz and Jacque Vaughn, who were being inducted into the Kansas athletics hall of fame. Kansas headed to the locker room trailing 32-28.
"In the first half, not only did they (Gonzaaga) play well, but they played harder then we did," Williams said. "That was the most discouraging thing to me at the half. They had a lot more effort than we did."
The Bulldogs did not give up that easily, though. The score was tied six times before the Jayhawks took control with 10:33 left, when Robertson blocked a jump shot by Gonzaga guard Matt Santengelo, who was the game's leading
After the half, Robertson dominated the first minute of play — he had a steal, two assists and a defensive rebound as the layshawks tied the game at 32.
scorer with 24 points. Forward Kenny Gregory grabbed the ball and finished the play with an explosive dunk at the other end to put Kansas up 53-51.
"santangelo's a great player." Robertson said. "On that play he kind of forced it a little bit. I got a good jump and blocked it right to Kenny. It was a pretty good play for us."
After the Bulldogs tied the score at 53-53, the Jayhawks went on a 14-4 run to win their 61st consecutive home game.
"A lot of times the tradition we have, the winning streak, tends to make you think teams are going to roll over," Williams said. "And I didn't think that one would. I knew that they were good to begin with."
Four Jayhawks scored in double figures, led by Gregory and center Eric Chenowith, who each scored 18 points. Chenowith (18 points and 10 rebounds) and forward Nick Bradford (16 points and 10 rebounds) each recorded the first double-double of their careers.
Freshman point guard Jeff Bosshee, who had nine points and three assists, looked a little shaken by the higher intensity of the regular-season game.
"It was the first regular-season college game, the intensity level is much different than those exhibition games," Boschee said. "That's the biggest thing I have to get adjusted to."
Kansas plays again Tuesday against Penn at the Palestra in Philadelphia.

Brian Jensen has been working all year for one event — the NCAA Championships.
Jensen's time of 30:54.4 was his career best on a 10,000-meter course.
On Saturday, Jensen reached that aspiration by finishing in second place by two seconds, behind Illinois State's Chris Bailey, at the Midwest Regional at the Raft Golf Course in Augusta.

"It's difficult for an individual to qualify to nationals," Schwartz said. "It was a tremendous accomplishment."
In addition to qualifying for nationalists, Jensen earned All-Midwest Region honors. Jensen's second-place finish was the highest of the Schwartz era, which began in 1988.
Neither the men's or women's teams fared as well. The men finished 14th and the women finished 20th.

Schwartz said that Andy Tate had asthma problems around the 2.000-meter mark.
"It it would be hard for anyone to run 8,000 meters when they can't breathe," Schwartz said.

"Both teams worked hard this year and they are a good group to work with," he said. "Having that drive and determination doesn't guarantee success, but I am proud of their efforts and proud to be their coach."

All of which bring me to my point. I sit in the student section with fans who scream the entire game, and their language is not always PG. But Kansas basketball fans have an obligation to consider the feelings of those around them and to respond appropriately if someone is offended
Speaking of inappropriate comments
Kansas State fans should be upset by ABC's effort televising the Wildcats' landmark victory against Nebraska.
At times during the broadcast Saturday, renowned announcer Keith Jackson seemed confused. He made mistakes identifying players, commenting on the team — and most inexcusably of all, he called the Wildcats "the Jayhaws" at least twice.
ABC's camera crew was terrible. On a second-half touchdown pass from quarterback Michael Bishop to receiver Darnell McDonald, the camera stopped panning across the end zone, leading viewers to believe the ball had dropped incomplete or sailed out-of-bounds.
There were other gaffes too — unacceptable for a major network covering a game that has national-title implications.
One last note on the K-State game.
One last notch the goalposts down after the Colorado game faster than K-State fans were able to Saturday. At least we're better than them in something.
Finally, a column about mistakes, faux pas and errors would be incomplete without mention of last week's sports page.
On Tuesday, readers picked up the Kansan and found the Oct. 30 sports front had been reprinted because of an error at The Lawrence Journal-World, where the paper is printed.
Thanks to all the readers who called, e-mailed and cornered me on the street to ask about the problem.
I could only respond with the follow- comments;
And, yes, I did say I would pick Kansas to beat K-State in football if we were to play them again this season, but I did not intend to do so by republishing my predictions from prior to the K-State game.
No, we are not going to have a classic sports section in the Kansan. We'll leave that to ESPN.
I apologize to all the fans who did not get to read our preview of the Kansas vs. Australia Geelong basketball game.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 16).
Today's Birthday (Nov. 10).
Start off this year by taking care of old business. After you get that out of the way, you're going to take off like a rocket. Spend most of November untangling a bureaucratic money. Through December, there are lots of surprises concerning money. Some of them are good ones.
In January, you'll find it easier to learn, and in February you can use new skills to fix up something at home.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
There will be some difficulty with partnership and finances today. You want things to go one way, and they appear to be taking the opposite turn. Try not to act impetuously. Planning is the key to success. The person who does the most planning will have the most success.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5. You'll notice a strong attraction to a person with whom you have nothing in common. This is someone you love to hate, and hate to love. Passions will be intense the next couple days, so if you can manage to schedule some time for a very private discussion, do that.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
A conversation could make you forget just about everything else. Knowing that ahead of time, you might want to avoid calling that special someone when you first wake up, or rolling over and talking to him or her.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
You'd like to call in sick. It looks like you'd rather stay home and cuddle with the one you love. Or somebody at home may be under the weather, and you'd like to be able to fuss about him or her. Whatever it is, do as much of it as possible.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
If there's any information you need, ask about it.
Chances of getting a straight answer are better than they will be during the middle of the week, although by the weekend conditions shift again, and it'll be easier to get the truth.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You've been in the mood to study, so why not take advantage of that situation while it lasts? The obvious thing to focus that attention on is your finances. Whip those into shape and write up a budget you can live with. You will want to spend on something else later.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.
If you're careful about what you say, you'll be able to achieve your ends through negotiation. That should be your objective, because it looks like the direct method won't work yet. Don't be tricked into tipping your hand too far. There still a lot to be said for holding back just a little, especially where money is concerned.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21)): Today is a 6.
You're under quite a bit of pressure today. It's some sort of paperwork you were supposed to have turned in. Better do it now or the bureaucrats will come down on you big time. Once you've got it out of the way, you'll notice that you become a lot more powerful.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Looks like friends need some attention, and you're willing to provide it. You'd rather go and play than take care of business, especially today. That's because there's some nogging chore you've been avoiding. The bad news is that it's going to get worse before it gets better. Take care of it today, while you're in a playful frame of mind.
P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
A person in authority doesn't seem to be able to make a decision. You may have to take control and dictate how it's going to be. That would save time, and in this case, time is money. Get together with friends this evening and plan an activity that will do some good in your neighborhood.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Your heart isn't in your work this morning. You'd
rather be anywhere else. There's an authority figure

If you're smart, you'll go along. Don't even think
about arguing. There's absolutely no point.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Looks like paperwork is getting away from you, if you haven't looked through that stack in a while, you might be surprised to see bills you forget. Later on, try something unusual. Get out for a ramp in an unfamiliar neighborhood, one you've always wanted to check out. It'll be fun and rejuvenating.

NFL investigates coach for tampering charge
NEW YORK — The NFL is investigating a possible tampering charge against New York Jets coach Bill Parcells involving a phone conversation he allegedly had with New England Patriots quarterback Drew Bledsoe
"We have made an inquiry into the reported telephone conversation to determine if there has been a violation of the league's anti-tampering policy," Greg Alelo, the NFL's vice president of public relations, said yesterday.

NFL policy says any contact between members of one organization with players of another organization could potentially interfere with employer-employee relationship. Clubs whose personnel engage in such contact do so at their own risk and expose themselves to disciplinary action, including forfeiture of draft choices.
The network said the Patriots alleged Parcells then called Dolphins coach Jimmy Johnson to advise him that Glenn would be out of the lineup. The Dolphins defeated New England 12-9 the following Sunday. CBS reported that the Patriots filed a tampering charge, although the NFL did not confirm that.

Last season, the league investigated a phone conversation between Bill Belichick, the Jets' assistant head coach and defensive coordinator, with Baltimore Ravens players Orlando Brown and Wally Williams, which occurred the week the two teams played.

Bradford gives power to 'Hawks in win from new position
By Sam Mellinger
Kanson sportswriter
For the first time in his Kansas career, Junior Nick Bradford wasn't playing behind Paul Pierce Friday night.
Bradford responded with the best game of his career in Kansas' 80-66 win against Gonzaga at Allen Field House.
The 6-6 small forward scored 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds -- both career highs -- while playing out of position as a power forward.
Bradford also helped limit Gonzaga guard Matt Santangelo to five points in the second half after Santangelo scorched the Jayhawks for 19 first-half points, most of which came while being guarded by Ryan Robertson.
"Nick won the game for us," Robertson said. "It was hard for Nick to play when he was playing behind someone like Paul Pierce, but Nick was great tonight. He was able to use his height (when guarding Santango)."
Throughout his first two years at Kansas, Bradford was known as a player who did the little things that help win games but don't show up in the box score. Bradford is still that player — witness his effort as a makeshift power forward — but if Friday night's game is any indication, he may be ready for more.
Nick can make plays," said Kansas coach Roy Williams. "He's always been able to make plays, but sometimes he makes bad plays. He was smarter with the basketball in the second half. He's so versatile; he can do so many things for us."
To his career-best scoring and rebound numbers, Bradford added two assists, two steals and a block. He scored his 16 points on just eight shots from the field and he was uncharacteristically accurate from the free-throw line, hitting seven of nine free throws.
No wonder Robertson gave him such high praise.
Bradford called the win a team effort that he helped lead.
Want proof? With just less than 15
minutes to play and Kansas down 44-40. Santangelo had the ball for Gonzaga. Forced to the middle, Santangelo ran into a waiting Bradford, who stripped the ball and started a fast break that ended with a layup by Kenny Gregory.
About a minute later, Bradford redirected a Lester Earl miss for two points. The put-back tied the score at 44, sent the crowd into a frenzy and forced Gonzaga to use its second timeout of the half with 13:48 left.
The teams traded baskets after the
timeout before Br a r d f o r d striped Santangelo again.
Bradford was fouled and made one of two free throws, putting Kansas ahead 47-46.
Bradford: Scored 16 points at power forward.
"We just started moving more, being more aggressive on
defense," Bradford said. "Before, in the first half, we were too casual."
That didn't go unnoticed by Williams, who said that he hadn't purchased tickets for any of the players but that they were watching Gonzaga like a bunch of fans.
That changed at halftime when the Jayhawks found themselves on the short end of a 32-28 score. Once Williams got his team in the locker room, he let his disappointment show.
"That gets to you," Bradford said. "When coach is telling you they out-hustled you, they're kicking your butt, that gets to you."
it must have, because Williams was happy with how his team responded after half time.
"I don't think there was any play in the second half where I wasn't happy with our effort," Williams said.
Williams had to be especially happy with Bradford's effort.
Jayhawks shut down by Texas A&M
By Laura Bokenkrager
Kansan sportswriter
Three and out.
The Kansas volleyball team lost to No. 22 Texas A&M Saturday (15-2, 15-2 and 15-9), and middle blocker Anne Kreimer said that the Jayhawks basically didn't show up for the first two games.
"We didn't play well until the midway through the third game." Kreimer said. "It's uncharacteristic of our team to be so sluggish. There was just a different attitude, a different feeling in those games."
"Against a team like Texas A&M, the kind of energy we had in the third game is the kind of energy we need every game," Bechard said.
Coach Ray Bechard said that the Jayhawks found a spark in the third game, but it was too late.
Kreimer said that the Jayhawks have struggled with their consistency lately, and that they would have to resolve that issue before they travel to Missouri and Iowa State next weekend.
"We're just so inconsistent right now with our passing and our serving," Kremler said. "Against Texas, our serving was a lot better. Our passing struggled a lot tonight, and we weren't
Led by All-American candidate Stacy Sykora, who collected a match-high 14 kills and a.444 attacking percentage on the night, the Aggies defeated Kansas 15-9.
As the Jayhawks (14-14 overall and 4-12 in the Big 12) prepare for their last four matches of the season, Kreimer said they had just one goal.
executing."
"We want to let the seniors go out winners," Kreimer said. "We want them to have a winning season."
The match against the Aggies wrapped up a difficult stretch of ranked opponents—four of the last five matches were against top-25 teams.
Although they are relieved that the stretch is finished, Kreimer said that the Jayhawks wouldn't take Missouri or Iowa State lightly.
"Missouri has been playing well — they took Nebraska to five games and Kansas State to four," Kreimer said. "Iowa State is fishing for a win any way they can. It'll be tough competition on the road, so we aren't just assuming we'll win."

Owners discuss commissioner's role in lockout
The Associated Press
NEW YORK—On Day 136 of the NBA lockout, some owners talked yesterday about commissioner David Stern and his approach to negotiating a new deal with the players.
"We call him Easy Dave," Donald Sterling, principal owner of the Los Angeles Clippers, told the New York Times. "I don't think Stern would ever take advantage of anybody. I think he wants to leave something on the table for everyone.
"I think some owners feel that since we create and make the game and put up the seed money and take
all the risk that perhaps we should get a more equitable distribution of the revenue. Stern is going soft on them."
Sterling spoke despite a league-wide gag order during negotiations. Owners are not supposed to talk about collective bargaining or the deal that is on the table and some teams already have been fined for violating that order. The

earliest start of a season at least one month away, a few frustrated owners began talking last week.
Still, as the number of canceled games closing in on 100 and with the
"We're prepared to gut out the season," said Abe Pollin, chairman of the Washington Wizards and the league's senior owner. "We went into this knowing that if we can't make a fair deal, the season would be gone."
The league ordered the collective bargaining agreement reopened when the players' share of revenues reached 57 percent. The owners want a 50-50 split. The union has proposed 60-40.
Jerry Colangelo, owner of the Phoenix Suns, said the roles of Stern
and deputy commissioner Russ Granik as spokesmen and negotiators for the owners were appropriate.
"I've been in this league 32 years and I care about the game," he said. "It's been my passion. I believe David shares the same passion."
Another owner, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said he did not share Stern's belief that high-profile agents were blocking a deal.
"I don't understand how players, with limited careers, guys that may not play for more than a few years, are going to make this money up," he said. "It's as if 400 of them are sacrificing for the needs of a few."

It was an emotional Saturday night as the Kansas soccer team said farewell to seniors Jackie Dowell, Erin Hon, Sarah Korpli and Jen Silvers, at its annual banquet.
When women's soccer began at Kansas as a varsity sport in 1995, there were 14 freshmen, but only Dowell, Hon, Korpi and Silvers made it four years.
The seniors were showered with personalized gifts, some serious, some inside jokes. Each senior received a framed collection of team pictures from their four seasons on the team.
Each senior also was presented with books, ranging from ESPN's "Quotable ESPN Book," to Dr. Seuss.
"These are wonderful young women with tons of experience from their four years at KU," said former Kansas coach Dan Magnier, who resigned on Nov. 3.
Team awards were presented as well. Dowell was voted Most Valuable Player by her team.
"There is no other award that could equal or surpass being named MVP by my teammates," she said. "My team is what I work for, and I appreciate that they see what I do."
Dowell, who wore the capain's armband all four years, never missed a game. She started 75 of 76 games, both Jayhawk records. Hon also played 75 games in her career.
Goalkeeper Katie Garrity was named Most Improved.
After appearing in four matches her freshman year, Garrity played in seven this season, starting five. Her best game was her 12-save performance on Oct. 16 in a 1-0 loss to Nebraska.
Korpi was named Most Inspirational. Korpi, who served as co-captain this year, was the only Jayhawk to start all 19 matches. As a freshman, she tallied the first goal in Kansas soccer history.
“It’s an honor for me, because this is how other people see me,” she said. “I guess I was doing something right.”
The night also served as a farewell to Magner. He finished his two-year stint as Kansas coach with a 12-25-2 record.
Even though his reign as coach was short, Magner said that he had plenty of good memories.
"Ive really enjoyed the experience of working at KU," he said. "I truly and sincerely hope that all of these women will be successful. I can only hope that I have been able to touch their lives as much as they have touched mine."
Magner said that the moment that will stick out as his favorite
memory of Kansas soccer was the 10 win against Missouri this year. It was the first time that the Jayhawks had defeated their border rival.
"The only reason you say goodbye is to say hello again one day," he said.
Magner wrapped up the night with a phrase he said applied to himself and the seniors.
Kansas State victorious; 'Huskers still confident
Wildcats secure Big 12; Red Raiders beat Texas
That snapping sound heard late in the Kansas State Nebraska game was either the crack of Erie Crouch's twisted neck or a dramatic shift in the Big 12 Conference's balance of power.
The Associated Press
Actually, it was both.
Michael Bishop's 11-yard touchdown pass to Darnell McDonald with 6:25 remaining
was the go-ahead score in Kansas State's 40-30 win on Nebraska Saturday in Manhattan.
C
"I'm happy. I can assure you of that," said Kansas State
coach Bill Snyder, whose team secured the Big 12's north division championship—its first football title of any kind since 1934.
The victory put the Wildcats (10-0, 7-0) into the Big 12 championship on Dec. 5 against Texas A&M (10-1, 7-0), which beat Missouri 17-14 and clinched a trip to St. Louis when Texas Tech beat Texas 42-35.
In other Big 12 games, Oklahoma beat Bayar 28-16 and Colorado beat Iowa State 37-8.
QI
In non-conference action, Oklahoma State beat Southwest Louisiana 44-20. Kansas was idle.
Kansas State's defeat of Nebraska (8, 4-3) was secure after Jeff Kelly returned a
Crouch fumble 23 yards for a touchdown with three seconds left.
Minutes earlier, Kansas State's Travis Ochs had grabbed Crouch's face mask and tackled him on 4th-and-8 with 2:40 to play. Crouch's head was nearly turned around, but there was no penalty.
Nebraska coach Frank Solich declined to say whether he agreed with the no-call. But he expressed confidence the "Huskers could have taken advantage if given the chance.
Ochs admitted after the game he was "a little nervous" about what obviously should have been a penalty.
have been repentful.
"I don't want to be branded as a cheater," Ochs said. "But the referee was right there. Those are the breaks of the game."
With Kansas State's first win against Nebraska since 1968, the Wildcats remain on target for a possible national title.
Perhaps the Wildcats can become a force in the Big 12 on the long run like Oklahoma in the old Big Eight or Texas in the old Southwest Conference. But it's a prospect that made the Huskers cringe.
"The torch being passed? I'm not falling for that," said tight end Sheldon Jackson." I
don't believe it. I take nothing from their win. They're a good team. But I believe the best team in the country has three losses this season, and it wears 'N' on its helmets."
In the game at College Station, Randy Potter fumbled a punt in Missouri territory and Toya Jones recovered for Texas A&M,
setting up Russell
Bynum's 39-yard
field goal with 1:30 to
play.
ATM
The visiting Tigers (7-3, 5-2) missed a chance at overtime when Brad Ham-
merich's 56-yard field goal attempt fell short
In addition to his fumble, Potter also allowed a Texas A&M punt to roll to the Missouri 2, and that eventually produced good field position for the Aggies on their goahead touchdown in the fourth quarter.
With Missouri holding a 7-6 lead, Randy McCown scored on a 1-yard run with 13:52 to play, then threw to Leroy Hodge on the PAT. The Tigers tied it on a 10-yard run by Jones with 8:07 left.
Next week, Texas A&M gets its first open date since Sept. 5 as the Aggies prepare for their Nov. 27 showdown at Texas. The Longhorns fell out of the race for the south division title by losing in Lubbock.
Rob Peters ran for a 3-yard touchdown with 25 seconds left as the Red Raiders (7-3, 4-3) surprised the Longhorns (7-3, 5-2). Texas Tech's Ricky Williams outran Texas running back Ricky Williams 148-141.
Williams of Texas, however, became the second Division I A rusher to break the 6,000-mark for his career. Going into the Texas A&M game, he needs 63 yards to break Tony Dorsett's NCAA rushing record.
De'Mond Parker caught a touchdown pass, ran for two touchdowns and became the first Oklahoma running back to rush for 1,000 yards three seasons in a row as the Sooners (4-6,2-5) won at Baylor (28,1-6).
Parker gained 207 yards on 29 carries, his fifty 200-yard effort in 30 career games. He scored on runs of 7 and 48 yards and caught a 13-yard touchdown pass. Parker has 1,067 yards rushing this season.
In Boulder, Colo., Marlon Barnes ran for 237 vaults and two touchdowns and Ben
Kelly's 76-yard punt return carried Colorado (7-3, 4-3) to win against Iowa State (2-8, 0-7), which allowed 463 total yards.
At Stillwater, Okla.,
CUJ
Aaron Mackey, Shakay Nathan Simmons ran for 161 yards and Tony Lindsay had 158—career highs for both as Oklahoma State started fast and coasted past Southwestern Louisiana.

But Tech ended all that Saturday night (7-3, 4-3) scored touchdowns on their last three drives, the final one with 25 seconds left, and took a 42-35 victory.
"Texas Tech played a good ball game, and we didn't make the plays we needed to," said receiver Wane McGarity, who caught four touchdown passes and became the first Longhorn
"We were not that consistent," Williams said. "They were excited and played with more emotion than we did."
With 141 yards against Tech, Williams upped his career total to 6,020 yards, making him the second Division I-A player to surpass 6,000. The other is Tony Dorset, whose 6,082 yards for Pittsburgh has been the record since 1976.
a season.
Texas' loss clinched the Big 12 South crown for Texas A&M and reduced the importance of its meeting the day after Thanksgiving. The incentive for the Longhorns (7-3, 5-2) now is to make the Aggies stumble into the conference championship game against Kansas State, while also helping themselves jockey for a better bowl bid.
Texas Tech's Ricky Williams had seven more yards than his same-named foe. The Red Raiders star said he got a big charge out of rushing more than the other Williams.
to have 1,000 yards receiving in a season.
Although Williams became the highest rusher Tech had allowed in 15 games, it wasn't enough for the Longhorns.
But the main focus of the A&M game will be Williams and the 63 yards he needs to become the leading rusher in the history of major-college football.
"Texas Tech played a good ball game, and we didn't make the plays we needed to."
"I wished him luck and congratulated him on a great season," the Tech sophomore said. "I told him I hope he wins the big prize (the Heisman Trophy)."

Tech answered with an 82-yard drive capped by a 3-yard touchdown plunged by quarterback Rob Peters. Peters threw for a career-high 322 yards, including 150 in the fourth quarter.
Tech had chances to win its previous three games — all to ranked teams — in the closing minutes but lost all three. "Texas trailed or was tied in the fourth quarter of its last three games and had won all three.
The victory ended late-game trends for both teams.

Ellsworth to bowl turkeys
Despite controversy tradition will continue
Kansan statt writer
By Liz Wristen
Vocabulary staff writer
But the Thanksgiving goodies won't be for eating.
Potatoes, cranberry sauce and turkey will be a part of the Thanksgiving Olympics event Thursday at Ellsworth Hall.
They will be used in potato sculpting, cranberry wrestling and turkey bowling, which involves students rolling frozen turkeys wrapped in aluminum foil and a pillowcase across the floors of the hall.
During the past few years, the bowling activity has drawn opposition from some University of Kansas students who believe that using the dead turkeys as a form of entertainment is degrading.
Members of KU Proponents of Animal Liberation (PAL) decided to offer Ellsworth another option last night.
They donated three bowling balls to replace the three frozen turkeys.
Michael Schmitt, Harrisonburg, Va. graduate student and a member of PAL, said the organization provided the bowling balls so that the hall had the option of choosing something other than the carcass of a dead animal.
"This kind of event reflects how we as a society think of animals," Schmitt said. "We tend to think of them as objects, with very little well-being for their interest."
Chris Stoppel, Washington, Kan., sophomore and the president of Ellsworth Hall, said that he understood the concerns of PAL but that the hall would continue to use the frozen turkeys.
"I think that they have legitimate concerns, but I don't see a problem with using the same turkets year after year," Stoppel said.
The turkeys were purchased four years
ago and are stored in a hall freezer during the rest of the year.
Stopper also said that using bowling balls would damage the hall's floors.
PAL encouraged Ellsworth to give up the turkey bowling tradition last year. The idea was proposed at a hall meeting but was turned down by a 26-5 vote from the floor senators, Schmitt said.
Sarah Yannacone, Sterling sophomore and a member of PAL, attended a meeting of the Ellsworth Hall Executive Board with Schmidt Wednesday to voice PAL's concerns about the use of the animals in the event.
But having made no progress, PAL decided to offer the bowling balls as an alternative.
PAL purchased one of the bowling balls at a local thrift store. The other two balls were donated by a Lawrence bowling alley, Schmitt said.
PAL was recognized as an official campus organization in Fall 1996. The organization has about 30 members.
Hall residents to get anti-booze warning letter
Zero-tolerance may be enforced
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
Students who live in residence halls can expect a letter from the Department of Student Housing this week outlining the consequences of getting caught with alcohol in their rooms.
There always have been consequences for getting caught with alcohol, but a recent survey taken by the residents proved that students did not think they would get in trouble.
"The policy has always been there," said Ken Stoner, director of student housing. "We're looking at more ways to tell the students about the consequences and make sure they're aware of them."
Before this policy, some students might not have experienced severe punishments. Stoner said he wanted the consequences to deter the students
Zero-tolerance enforcement of the existing no-alcohol policy in residence halls was emphasized at a meeting last week of a citywide alcohol task force
Stoner said that, depending on the circumstances, a student might be asked to move out of University housing.
A recent incident in a residence hall may have helped propel the department to take action.
nment to take care of him.
Gregory Hunsucker, who was charged Wednesday with the rape of an Ellsworth Hall resident and the sexual battery of another Ellsworth resident, also faced charges of furnishing alcohol to a minor, according to the KU Public Safety Office.
Sgt. Troy Mailen said Hunsucker, Olathe freshman, was at a party in one of Ellsworth's rooms.
Stoner said the gathering was not sponsored by Ellsworth or the Student Housing Department and that the letter was not related directly to the incident.
POLICY INFORMATION
The Department of Student Housing has an existing policy stating that alcoholic beverages will not be tolerated in residence halls
To better enforce this rule, residents will receive letters outlining the possible consequences of being caught with alcohol.
Consequences will depend on the circumstances of each situation.
He would not comment on Hunsucker's disciplinary actions, but Stoner said Hunsucker was sent a letter last Friday and asked to move out.
Stoner would not say whether he was asked to move out because of the alcohol or for other reasons.
Brian Hanni, Topeka freshman and Oliver Hall resident, said drinking did occur in the residence halls.
He said he had seen his fair share of parties but nothing too extreme.
"It just sounds like it's going to be a tough policy to monitor," Hanni said. "Unless they check every room every night, I don't see how they can enforce it. But hey, more power to them if they can figure it out."
Anne Pyle, Lenexa sophomore and Templin Hall resident, agreed. She said she already knew about the policy and hoped that stricter punishments would deter students.
"It's a good idea in terms of eliminating fights and perhaps securing women's safety, but I don't know how much they can stop it from happening," Pyle said. "I see alcohol all the time. People walk down the hall with it, and nothing ever happens."
Stoner said that although he was still finishing the letter residents would receive, he was going to emphasize the consequences.
Some encourage the student to get counseling or treatment, and others put the student on probation.
"Eviction is the big stick," Stoner said. "That will be determined by the events and all incidents leading up to them."
City to decide fate of neighborhood bars
By Chris Fickett Kansan staff writer
When the Lawrence City Commission decided to allow The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St., to stay open until 2 a.m. nightly, it also decided to keep a close eye on it.
One month has passed since the decision, and tonight, the commission will decide if the problems associated with bars in residential neighborhoods should be dealt with through a city ordinance.
conclude When the decision about The Hawk's closing time was made in October, the commission directed city staff to explore possible city code amendments concerning bars in residential neighborhoods.
The commission will receive a report from Dave Corliss, director of legal services. Corliss' report outlines five possible city code options for the commission to consider.
Among the options to be presented to the commission are the possibility of a midnight closing time for bars located in residential neighborhoods, the enforcement of zoning and parking laws and restricting entrance to neighborhood bars to patrons 21 years of age or older.
See HAWK on page 3A
Neighborhood bar ordinance The Lawrence City Commission will debate the following possibilities for an ordinance on bars located in residential neighborhoods:
- Place a midnight closing time for bars located in a residential zoning district and located 400 feet from a residential structure.
- Limit admittance to bars in residential neighborhoods to individuals over 21 years of age.
Place a midnight closing time for bars that do not conform to current zoning regulations regarding parking, location of the premises in relation to the street and other properties, and neighborhood compatibility.
11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30
Review existing conditions and consider prohibiting outdoor seating areas for bars in residential neighborhoods.
Do not revise the city code, but use existing city laws regarding public nuisances or the authority to place additional restrictions on bars in residential neighborhoods.

Fees loom for late-enrolling students
Charges begin Monday as appointments cease
By Carolyn Mollott
Yanson staff writer
Friday will be the last day that KU students can enroll without paying a late fee.
Joan Hahn, room supervisor at the enrollment center in Strong Hall, said enrollment appointments would end tomorrow but students would have an additional two days of open Add/ Drop during which they could enroll without an appointment and without paying a late charge.
Late enrollment begins Monday, and students then must pay a $25 late fee. The last day of late enrollment before winter break will be Dec. 2.
Hahn said students who enrolled during the late enrollment period could face a few problems, including the financial burden of a late fee.
Kevin McWey, Milwaukee freshman, and Ryan McGilley, Cleveland freshman, said they were angry that the line to enroll was so long yesterday afternoon.
"They have a problem with classes closing up." Hahn said.
Important enrollment dates
Main enrollment began Friday, Oct. 23, 1998
First day open add/drop Wednesday, Nov. 19, 1998
Date by which students must apply for tuition adjustments and have them reflected on the bill Friday, Nov. 20, 1998

Last day drop a class and receive 100% refund adjustment Friday, Jan. 15, 1999
First day for $25 late enrollment fee for new or newly readmitted students Tuesday, Jan. 19, 1999
Late enrollment resumes Tuesday, Jan. 19, 1999
Last day to withdraw and receive 100% refund/adjustment Tuesday, Jan. 19, 1999
Last day of the $25 late enrollment fee Friday, Jan. 29, 1999
First day for $50 petition for late enrollment fee Monday, Feb. 4, 1999
First day for $50 petition for late enrollment fee Monday, Feb. 15, 1999
First day for $100 late enrollment fee Tuesday, Feb. 16, 1999
Last day for petition late enrollment Monday, May 10, 1999
After winter break, late enrollment will resume Jan. 19, and end Jan. 29.
McIlroy agreed.
"By the time you get to the end of the line, all your classes are gone anyway," he said.
McGilley agreed.
But the students decided to stay and wait in line for their scheduled enrollment times because they did not want to risk losing the classes they wanted.
"I don't think it's that organized," McWey said.
will resume sam. is being accepted.
Students who still wish to enroll can
pay a $50 fee for petition late enrollment from Feb. 1, through Feb. 15.
Petition late enrollment will be possible with a $100 fee from Feb. 16 through May 10.
Hahn said late enrollment before winter break did not cause administrative difficulties. But late enrollment and petition late enrollment after the break become more of a hassle for the Enrollment Center because a much smaller number of people are available for work, she said.

Counterfeit bill found in Murphy Hall's till
A student employee discovered a counterfeit $20 bill Friday in the University Theater box office in Murphy Hall.
The bill had been passed successfully at the office earlier, and an employee reported it to police at 12:55 p.m. Friday.
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said it was not known whether the office accepted the bill Friday or whether it was already in its till from a previous day.
The counterfeit bill was a photocopy of a $20 bill of the old design.
Linda Hope, Murphy Hall box office manager, said the bill was not convincing to the student who discovered it.
"It was pretty obvious to her," she said. Mailen said it was possible that the bill could have been passed in a stack of other bills so that whoever accepted it only looked at the corner of the bill.
He said the person working at the box officer cash register Friday recalled making only one cash transaction and did not think the transaction had involved a $20 bill.
Stolen car, drug arrest unfold after violation
A KU public safety officer stopped a car for a routine traffic violation Saturday and discovered that the vehicle was stolen and the driver was in possession of drugs.
The officer pulled over a Geo Tracker at 6:29 p.m. in the 1700 block of Engle Road. He checked the license plate number on the vehicle and discovered it was a stolen plate.
"After a further check, the officer determined that the vehicle itself was also stolen," said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office.
Mailed则 the driver of the vehicle, a 19-year-old Lawrence resident, was taken to the Law Enforcement Center, 11.1 East 11th St., where he was found to be in possession of one gram of what police suspected was marjiquana. He also had rolling papers.

Police arrest second man suspected in burglary
The first suspect, a 20 year-old Lawrence man, was arrested Wednesday.
Police arrested the second suspect in the recent burglary of a Douglas County Sheriff's deputy's home Friday, following a week-long investigation.
An interview with the first suspect contributed to police identifying a second suspect, a 21-year-old Lawrence man. They arrested him at the Lawrence Riverfront mall 3:30 p.m. Friday.
The two men are suspected of breaking into the home of Deputy Steven Freeman in the 1700 block of Maple Court and stealing a stereo, speakers, a Nintendo, a shotgun, a gold wedding ring and a small amount of money the afternoon of Nov. 5, Lawrence police said.
The men also are suspected of stealing a bulletproof vest found discarded it in the front yard.
Freeman reported a loss of more than $2,000.
Freeman, 31, was sleeping when two men cut open a window screen and entered the home.
Both men were placed into the Douglas County Jail on charges of aggravated burglary, conspiracy to commit aggravated burglary, felony theft, conspiracy to commit theft and criminal damage to property, jail officials said.
Police look for two men after abduction, rape
A 19-year-old Independence, Mo., woman reported to Lawrence police that she was raped by two strangers Nov. 10 after being attacked near a Lawrence club.
The woman told police that she was abducted at knife point by the men in an alley behind the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
She said that she had stepped into the alley for some fresh air, when the two men kinked her and led her down the alley for several blocks, police said.
Police said she did not know which direction she was taken.
"She was led into a residential area and taken into an apartment building, or a house converted to apartment, where the rape occurred," said Lawrence Police Ser. George Wheeler.
She told police that the two men led her away from the apartment and left her in the back yard of a nearby house.
She then walked back to the club, where she contacted the police at 2:49 a.m.
Police are looking for two 22- to 23-year-old men last seen in that area. They both were wearing plain white T-shirts.
The two men are wanted on charges of kidnapping and rape.

task force this summer to lobby the department in hopes of convincing it to keep the unit in Topeka.
TOPEKA — The state Department of Corrections plans to relocate its center for evaluating new inmates to its prison outside El Dorado. Legislators' reactions vary.
The task force's chairman, Rep. Rocky Nichols, D-Topeka, said he planned to fight the decision but acknowledged Topeka-area legislators may be in a minority, given the department's figures for construction costs.
Cigarette markers settle with states to stop ads
NATION
WASHINGTON — Cigarette makers have agreed to a $206 billion settlement of state lawsuits that would prohibit tobacco companies from advertising on billboards, city buses and those T-shirts so popular with teen-agers.
The department believes the three Topeka Correctional Facility buildings that house the unit are unsafe for staff and inmates because of their age. The agency believes it can save about $4 million in construction costs at the El Dorado prison.
STATE
Northeast state officials upset about prison unit
Secretary Charles Simmons announced the decision yesterday, only three days after two out-of-state consultants recommended that the Reception and Diagnostic Unit be moved from Topeka.
Eight state attorneys general reached the proposed deal with tobacco companies after months of negotiation and have sent the proposal to all other states in hopes they, too, will join in. Thirty-nine states now are using the tobacco industry to recover Medicaid money spent treating sick smokers, but seven others that have not sued the industry also are eligible to join the settlement.
Four states already have separately settled with tobacco companies for a total of $40 billion.
Under the proposed deal, the states would end their lawsuits in exchange for millions of dollars each. Plus, cigarette makers would establish a $2 billion foundation to send anti-tobacco advertising into every home in America.
Northeast Kansas legislators probably will try to prevent relocation of the unit after the Legislature convenes Jan. 11.
Gov. Bill Graves signed on the decision.
Northeast Kansas legislators formed a
In addition, cigarette companies agreed to end advertising of tobacco on billboards and public transportation such as taxis and to stop marketing tobacco paraphernalia such as hats and T-shirts.
WORLD
Israel suspends pullback hurting peace processes
JERUSALEM — In yet another blow to the Mideast peace accord, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahuu suspended a West Bank troop pullback yesterday and demanded that Yasser Arafat retract threats to use force to bring about a Palestinian state.
The escalating tensions came on the day Israel had been scheduled to begin pulling its troops out of West Bank areas and crippled U.S. envoy Dennis Ross' efforts to get the Mideast peace accord started.
Palestinian officials countered that Israel was making just as many inflammatory remarks and accused Netanyahu of inventing excuses to avoid carrying out the agreement.
Netanyahu said the suspension was a result of Arafat's statement Sunday promising to declare a Palestinian state in May and telling supporters "our rifle is ready" to take Jerusalem.

Hawk report to help city deal with bars
Continued from page 1A
"We'll sit out on the porch and watch people drive on the sidewalk trying to hit their friends." Williams said.
Kris Williams, Lawrence junior, lives near The Hawk. He said that most of The Hawk's customers were underage and that minors who left the bar were out of control.
"I don't see any cops over here." he said.
Williams, who also bartends at Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St., said police needed to patrol the 14th and Ohio street intersection in the same manner that police patrol Massachusetts Street.
"I don't see any cops over here," he said. Another option listed in Corliss' report recommended that the city enforce its current public nuisance laws instead of enacting a provision to the city code. Matthew All, attorney for John Heleniak, owner of The Hawk, said this would be the most reasonable option for the bar.
All said he and his client would maintain their original position. He said that a bar such as The Hawk could not stay in business if the city set its closing time at midnight.
All said The Hawk had not received any neighborhood complaints and that the bar was working to set up meetings with the Oread Neighborhood Association. He said that any compromise should allow The Hawk to stay in business and the residents of the Oread Neighborhood to live peacefully.
"I hope that whatever is done, that we have a reasonable balanced proposal." All said.

Regents road trip
Regents will meet at community college
By Jason Pearce Kanson staff writer
In a move concurrent with higher education governance trends across the state, the Board of Regents will meet for the first time on the campus of a community college.
at Seward County
Regents members and university officials will gather tomorrow and Thursday
Nevada County Community College in Liberal to conduct its November meeting.
*Board of Regents*
Seward Presid
dent James Grote extended the invitation as an opportunity for the Regents to gain a sense of the community college as an institution.
"We look forward to having the Board and the university representatives visit Liberal and meet on our campus," he said.
Kim Wilcox, interim director of academic affairs for the Regents, said community college officials would be on hand for the meeting.
"This is an attempt to improve communication among state universities and community colleges in the state." Wilcox said.
He said Regents and community college officials would meet informally to discuss
One of these matters, a state task force designed by Gov. Bill Graves, is working to plan better and coordinate among the different sectors of higher education in the state.
common issues.
"The Governor's task force is attempting to improve communication among all the groups," Wilcox said. "And this is just another step."
The task force is looking into developing two new bureaucracies to coordinate and plan in areas that are overlooked now by the state. It should make a recommendation to the Legislature and Graves in January.
Wilcox said the main topics of discussion at the Regents meeting would include reports on a Vision 2020 planning effort and a proposed intellectual property rights policy.
He said Vision 2020 was a statewide plan at Regents' institutions to improve areas such as advising and administration.
Bob Basow, associate professor of journalism, said the intellectual property policy probably would be adopted by the Regents at the meeting.
Basow said the proposal, which gives faculty and students more rights to their university-related work, was flexible because it allowed individual campuses to modify the plan according to local needs.

Bicycle compatibility data to be presented
The first of four monthly meetings regarding a study of the compatibility of bicycles and automobiles in Lawrence will be at 6 tonight at the South Park Recreation Center.
This fall, the Lawrence Bicycle Advisory Committee recommended that 11 Lawrence streets be evaluated by TranSystems Corporation of Kansas City, Mo.
TranSystems has collected data about each street in order to determine whether bike lanes, bike route signs or another way of marking streets would be appropriate.
TranSystems will present its findings at tonight's meeting at the recreation center, 1141 Massachusetts St.
A representative from TranSystems will take comments from the public until 8 p.m.
Aaron Bartlett, city transportation planner, said that TranSystems was compiling a
bicycle/automobile compatibility index for each of the 11 streets and that the index was a new tool that had been used by other communities to determine what types of bicycle facilities should be installed.
Kaye Long, member of the Bicycle Advisory Committee, said she hoped KU students and Lawrence residents who use a bicycle as their main mode of transportation would be present at the meeting.
Long said that input from cyclists was important because they would be the ones affected by any changes made in bicycle transportation in Lawrence.
Future meetings will cover bicycle-friendly alternatives, summarize existing bike routes and make new route proposals to be sent to the Lawrence City Commission.
Bartlett said the Dec. 15 meeting would evaluate existing and potential bicycle conditions in Lawrence.
The next bicycle/automobile compatibility study meeting will be Dec. 15 at the recreation center.
$90,000 grant awarded to groups fighting drug use, violence
By Chad Bottes
Kansan staff writer
Two local not-for-profit organizations have been awarded grants totaling $90,000 to continue their efforts to decrease illegal drug use and violence by children.
Kansas Attorney General Carla Stovall selected two Lawrence-based groups, Douglas County Citizens Committee On Alcoholism and Van Go Mobile Arts, to participate in the Federal Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities grant program.
DCCCA, a behavioral health organization at 3112 Clinton Parkway, applied for funding to continue its Increase the Peace project, which is now in its fourth year.
Lori Alvarado, programming specialist for Increase the Peace, said the program reached students across the state in its focus to decrease youth violence.
"What precipitated this program is that we saw increases in violence, not necessarily in schools, but in juveniles being arrested for violent crimes," Alvarado said.
In Increase the Peace, groups of eight junior high or high school students travel to a ranch just south of Junction City for a two day retreat. Fifteen groups of students participate in the retreat at
the same time. Each group is selected to represent a cross section of its school's population.
Facilitators at the retreat help students develop customized solutions to decrease violence in their own towns and schools. Students are expected to prepare to go home and implement their solutions.
"This is a youth empowerment model," Alvarado said. "We can't change the problem, but the students can."
Van Go Mobile Arts, 301 Creekwood Drive, takes a different approach to helping children. Created in 1996, Van Go provides a setting where at-risk children can participate in after-school arts projects
"Art can literally save kids' lives."
Lynne Green
Executive Director of Van Go Mobile
ticipate in after-school arts projects. Lynne Green, executive director, said Van Go was not an arts and crafts program. Rather, the projects are permanent, public-arts projects that are done in conjunction with professional artists.
She said 105 kids participated last year on projects that included an art sculpture garden for the
Lawrence Housing Authority.
A student group is working on a painted metal sculpture in the form of a tree for the annual Festival of Trees.
A self-described child of the '60s, Green said she was thrilled to be combining her experience as a teacher, social worker and artist to make a positive impact on the community.
"Arts are starting to be recognized as a means of prevention, and studies are confirming this." Green said. "Art can literally save kids' lives."
Both Van Go Mobile Arts and Increase the Peace are collecting data so they can measure the long-term impact of their programs.
William Arnold, associate professor of sociology, said that youth violence had decreased during the last three years but that drug and alcohol use had been just as prevalent or had even increased despite many prevention program efforts.
Arnold also said that most drug-prevention success was seen when a number of programs were combined but that he doubted whether a permanent solution would be found.
"Our society has become sufficiently into using comforting chemicals, legal and illegal," Arnold said. "I'd be surprised if we ever get over the problem in general."

MEET BILL CLINTON
HOW'S THAT KISS OF DEATH,
NEWT?
Robert Novak / KANSAN
Editorial
Hiring practices face shaky results when lofty goals dominate quality
In its quest to meet the lofty minority- and women-hiring goals established by Chancellor Robert Hemenway, the university must remember that reaching those goals is not as important as making sure the hiring is done right.
Hemenway has said the University should have 200 minority faculty members by the year 2000. There now are 152 at the University. The administration also has said it needs to increase the percentage of women staff members beyond the current 32 percent to a number closer to 50 percent.
The University is on its way to fulfilling these goals and should be commended for its persistence and dedication.
But with the year 2000 only 14 months away, the University must face the very real possibility that it will fall short.
The University must continue to work hard to reach these goals, but it also must remember that reaching them is not worth hiring sub par people simply to get to where Chancellor Hemenway wants the University to be.
Fortunately, the University is not
University should continue to reach for the goal of 200 minority faculty members.
guity of this. The faculty and administrators that have been hired have been outstanding additions to the University.
However, as 2000 approaches and the University realizes it may not meet these goals, there is that danger that the standard of excellence in candidates will take a back seat to the goal of hiring badly needed minority and women faculty and staff.
That must be avoided.
It is necessary for Chancellor Hemenway to set high and even unattainable goals, to push the administration to get tangible results — especially with issues as important as diversity and equality among the University's faculty and staff.
It is not imperative that the University meet specific numerical goals and somewhat arbitrary deadlines as long as it comes as close as humanly possible and stays committed to the cause.
The goal cannot become more important than the quality of new faculty.
The hiring of sub par faculty would be a detriment to both the University and the groups that it is trying to incorporate. Teaching would worsen, but more importantly, it would be a disservice to minority and women hires.
Hiring less-qualified or sub par faculty simply to meet an administrative goal would reflect poorly on the numerous minorities who are talented at what they do and have worked hard to reach what should be regarded above all else in education — excellence.
It would be an injustice to them.
Qualified candidates for these jobs who also will diversify our University are out there. It is up to the University to find them.
Often in a large bureaucracy, goals become set in stone. Those people with the task of reaching those goals lose sight of what is important in the long run for what is expedient now.
The University has the opportunity to make sure that does not happen.

Stop sign needed between Bailey, Strong
Getting from the stadium parking lot to Wescoe should not be a life-threatening experience. But many of us who make that trip daily and are forced to cope with automobiles that speed around Memorial Drive, ignoring the pedestrian walk that leads to the stairway ending between Strong and Bailey, often wonder if this is the day we will meet our Maker.
This location demands a stop sign. There is such a sign for the few people who go from Strong to the administrative parking lot under Spencer Library, yet for the thousands who cross farther down, there is no such protection. Perhaps there is a sub text
nere on the value of human life — some at KU are worth more than others. Certainly it is not the safety of the majority which has been the concern of those who deal with these matters.

The real world fogies take some adjustment
T his is it. Last semester.

I've already had a couple tastes of life as a grown-up at internships, and it takes some getting used to.

You're the only one who wears baggy jeans or a baseball cap indoors.
Your co-workers act as if they've never seen stacks of empty pizza boxes used as furniture. Your biting — yet charming — sense of humor goes from being funny-weird to just weird-weird, or even offensive-weird.
Looks of concern replace
cheers of "chug" when you throw down a beer in less than 10 seconds and you go from being the ultimate anchor man to the ultimate lush.
But am I scared? You bet your Birkenstocks I'm not.
Luckily, you're a gifted reporter who shows wisdom and maturity beyond your years. This helps with feelings of insecurity, but you still feel like a kid — at least I did.
The median age in the United States is about 34. In Lawrence, it's 24.
I'm over my fear of fogies. I've parachutec into the depths of old-people hell and returned to tell the tale. I went to Port Charlotte, Fla., — median age: 52.
I was shocked — when I got there — it was very shocking.
What I'm trying to say is that the experience was a real shock to me.
Port Charlotte was like a fossil dig. These people didn't wait in long lines because they weren't sure they were going make it to the end — that is, unless it was a buffet line.
And the stereotype that old people drive slowly is bunk. Sure, there are some that fit the bill, but more often than not our elderly friends simply reserve the right not to turn or vary their speed at all.
"Unguided-retired missiles." That's what my boss called them. And he wasn't kidding. When I first started my job, my co-workers were still talking about the 92-year-old woman who went to the grocery store, did her shopping, returned to her car, put it in reverse and backed it — no, floored it — into the front of the grocery store. Luckily, nobody was killed. Another good car story was the one about the husband who was legally blind and the wife
who had no driver's license, both in their late 80s.
Naturally, the blind husband drove and the unlicensed wife told him when to brake, turn and what not. Luckily, a policeman pulled them over before they could do any grocery shopping, and nobody was killed.
I can't count the times I had the following conversation with someone while driving in my car:
ing them:
"Oh yeah, how about that — no, wait. See the hands there on the steering wheel? You can barely see 'em there."

tun safer when the car was driving itself.
I know it sounds cold — and scary — but hold on.
Those fogies were the exception and not the rule. I met some amazing seniors.
I met 77-year-old Ken Lewis who spent a good part of his life working for the Department of Defense, creating the great grandparents of the computer which I typed this. Off a government salary and pension, he and his wife saved enough to buy a cozy double-wide mobile home, complete with an organ, for entertaining, a home-made, back-up generator for those just-short-of-hurricane nights, a single-engine airplane to escape those full-blown hurricane nights and a little sailboat to get away from "all those old people." His words.
Last time I talked to him, he was trying coax a contractor into taking — not buying — his idea for a cheap, backyard tornado shelter. Experts said it wouldn't work, but Lewis doesn't agree. As far as I know, he's still working on it.
rarely see it in there.
I felt safer when the car was driving itself.
Lewis is pretty cool. And he's an excellent driver of both cars and airplanes.
I also met John Slaughter — Sgt. John Slaughter. In 1945, he hit Normandy beach about 300 yards up-shore from the Utah landing site, where the opening scene to Saving Private Ryan took place, which was why Spielberg invited him to the movie's premiere in Los Angeles. He said the cast was "cordial as hell," but that Tom Sizemore kept following him.
The point is: There are cool old people out there, even cool, really old people. So if and when you leave the University, don't let the fact that everybody's not young and beautiful get you down. A lot of those old people are all right and hopefully you'll be one someday. In the mean time, just be sure look both ways before crossing the street.

Why did the deer cross the road? To play chicken
deer can have a sick sense of humor
deer can have a sick sense of humor. This humor, which most likely has left humans the butt of all animal jokes for centuries, has been the source of countless, senseless vehicle-deer accidents.
Today, deer are more disruptive to normal highway function than ever before. Sure, we built our roads directly through private deer property — without permission — but we did have the decency to put up personalized deer-crossing signs. We did not erect skunk, or dog, or cat-crossing signs, even though these animals also have the right to live and wander. We put up deer-crossing signs, as a gesture of good

green grass on the soil Needless to say, our good faith was mocked, and we were taken advantage of by renegade deer with a waving for humaniliation.
I therefore, in an attempt to eliminate all misunderstandings, I would like to speak on behalf of all motorists and convey a message to those deer who might somehow catch wind of this article:
We want to have an enduring relationship with your kind. However, if you continue to leap upon us, unannounced, we will have no choice but to accelerate with reckless abandon and, if need be, chase you blindly through the grass and trees, at the expense of our vehicles and ourselves, to dissuade you from ever entering the road again.
Having said this, I would like to recount a traumatic experience.
Speeding West down US Highway 24-40 toward Lawrence, I stared forward, desensitized, listening as swarms of insects pelted my car and tainted my windshield.
drained my whimsey against the unlocked door of my 1989 Mazda and entertained myself with such thoughts as:
"If I saw a deer meandering out onto the road, would I swerve to avoid it, or would I lay on the horn and keep straight, hoping to convey the message to the massive beast that 'hey, a large, heavy object with a considerable amount of momentum is heading directly toward you. It probably would serve both of our best interests if you would put yourself in reverse and wait for what you consider to be the next possible window of opportunity to cross the road unmoiled. If you are unwilling to leave the road, at least step far enough out of the way so that I can
this same one she came to.
Continuing down the road, I noticed three dark objects ahead of me. The first thought that came to mind was my older sister reprimanding my speeding and repeating over and over again:
"BE CAREFUL DRIVING, AND WATCH OUT FOR DEER! THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!"
My earlier thought, regarding whether I would honk or swerve if I encountered a deer in the road. Instantaneously was replaced with:

the road, instantly we were warped.
"IIf it hit a deer, I mean head on, would I be able to duck below the dash board in time to avoid decapitation as the animal plummeted through my windshield, or would I just sit there, in complete disbelief, staring, kind of like a you-know what caught in the you-know-whats?"
I didn't want to hit a deer. Up until this point, I really liked deer. However, it became obvious that this animal was playing chicken, I mean deer, with me because it just stood there and not into my lights, but toward the other side of the road, waiting. I panicked, honked my sissy Mazda horn and braced the wheel tightly with both hands.
I switched my brights on to get a better look, and there it stood, a huge deer with half of its body on the road. Trailing a few feet behind the beast and just to the right side of the road were two more decent-sized animals.
Somewhere along the line, between the moment that my brain sent the message to my arms and hands, instructing them to twitch and swerve to the left, and the moment at which the appendages would have received the message and actually reacted, the deer quickened pace and jotted across the road. I held steadfast.
FOR DEER THEY RETRIEVE.
I ignored the warning. After all, I never noticed a deer on this road. Come to think of it, I never noticed a deer-crossing sign either. I had seen the dark red stains, which spotted the road every mile or so, but I never gave them any thought — hmm, interesting.

I fell asleep that night, reluctantly, to the horrid vision of hundreds of sick, smiling, deer cackling while kicking down deer-crossing signs.

Officials skeptical about Iraqi promises
Administration says troops remain ready if Iraq doesn't comply
The Associated Press
Section A · Page 5
WASHINGTON — Skeptical that Saddam Hussein will keep his word, the White House pressed for a swift test of Iraqi promises to cooperate with U.N. arms inspectors. The United States stopped its military buildup in the Persian Gulf but warned it could strike at a moment's notice.
"The world is watching Saddam Hussein to see if he follows the words he uttered with deeds," President Clinton said yesterday. "Our forces remain strong and ready if he does not."
The administration said it would be up to U.N. chief arms inspector Richard Butler and his team to judge whether Iraq, in fact, allowed unrestricted access to all sites.
"He has not been shy in the past about expressing his views when
he believes his work has been obstructed," White House press secretary Joe Lockhart said.

The White House also resumed plans for a presidential trip at midweek to Japan, South Korea and Guam that had been put off.

chemical weapons, 700 tons of chemical-weapons agents, a biological weapons plant, 48 missiles and 30 warheads fitted for chemical and biological weapons. Clinton said.
"Governments all over the world today stand united in sharing the conviction that full compliance, and nothing short of full compliance, is needed from Iraq," he said.
But the administration said Butler would not be able to render an immediate verdict.

Defense Secretary William Cohen announced a halt in the U.S. military buildup.
"We will keep the forces that are already there for the time being." he said. "Those forces that did not yet arrive will in all probability be recycled back in the next several days."
Several dozen F-16 and F-15 fighter planes, along with four F-117 stealth fighters, have been diverted to Europe and are expected to be ordered back to the United States.
But those forces will be ready if Iraq violates its promises, Cohen said.
About 4,000 Army troops at Fort Stewart, Ga., and Fort Bliss, Texas, who had been designated for deployment also will stand down, Cohen said.
While the administration claimed an unprecedented coalition of nations opposing Iraq's interference with arms inspectors, State Department spokesman James Rubin said some countries were
thrilled just to grab onto anything they saw as evidence of an Iraqi turnaround.
The United States said Iraq would have to comply with five conditions: allowing the resumption of

The administration also pledged to work more closely with Iraqi opposition groups to bring about a new government in Baghdad, Clinton said Sunday.
Japan puts $196 billion toward economic recovery
TOKYO — Japan's prime minister unveiled yesterday the government's biggest effort so far to spend the country out of economic distress, but markets and commentators found little to cheer about.
The Associated Press
Unimpressed by the figures — $196 billion in new public spending and tax cuts — critics focused on what Prime Minister Keizo Obuchi did not offer; a cut in the sales tax.
The package surpasses the record $139 billion the government released in April and brings the total amount Tokyo has spent to stimulate the economy since 1992 to $820 billion.
The problem, however, has been consumer confidence.
Growing unemployment, bankruptcies and stingy lending by hard-pressed banks have prompted ordinary Japanese to cut spending and put tax cuts into savings, leaving merchants, from car dealers to department stores, with unsold goods.
The government's decision last year to raise the sales tax to 5 percent from 3 percent was widely blamed for choking off a growth spurt and tipping the economy back into recession.
The latest package is designed to stop Japan's economy from contracting for a third consecutive year - a pledge Obuchi made after taking office in July.
Obuchi said the tax revenue was needed because of Japan's mounting budget deficit.
"With this plan, our country can free itself from its current severe situation," Obuchi said before leaving for Malaysia for a summit meeting of the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation forum.
The package also contains $8 billion in aid for Asian countries. Japan has been under intense international pressure to do more to help the region fight economic woes.

The economic newspaper Nihon Keizai was less than

confident about the plan, saying that at best the measures would produce a brief improvement.
the Yomuri, said, "After wiping off the thick makeup of money, only an unimpressive base appears underneath."
"We should not jump to the conclusion that this would pave way for economic recovery." it said. The nation's largest circulation newspaper,
Obuchi said the package's tax cuts, worth about $49 billion, would bring Japanese income and corporate tax rates in line with those in major Western economies.
To encourage consumers to spend more, the package will distribute $5.7 billion in shopping vouchers. The plan is expected to be passed later this month in a special parliamentary session.
Oobuchi said the package also would include more than $147 billion in spending, most of it on public works and steps to help smaller companies ride out a severe credit crunch as Japan's banks dispose of their massive bad loans.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange's benchmark 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average climbed 1.12 percent yesterday, but traders attributed the rise to hopes that the government might do more.
Michael Naldrett, an economist at Dressner Kleinwort Benson (Asia), said he was not sure that the government had done enough to bring about economic recovery. He predicted the economy could expand by 1 percent next year with the package — not by Obuchi's target of 2.3 percent.

Commentary UPN seeks to alter network image
By David Baudor The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Secret Diary of Desmond Pfeiffer, the bawdy, downscale satire about life in the Lincoln White House, seemed just what UPN needed this fall.
It was outrageous enough to make more staid broadcasters steer clear. Yet it was a show executives thought people would talk about.
That was the idea. In reality, Desmond Pfeiffer became the symbol of UPN's disastrous season. Many viewers were appalled because the show made light of slavery; critics called it moronic; nobody tuned in; and the show was shelved.
The young network's downfall was spectacular because it did not have far to fall. Through six weeks, UPN's average prime-time audience was 2.7 million, a 41 percent drop from last year's 4.6 million.
The WB, the other mini-network that also started in 1995, has passed UPN in viewers. The WB has increased its viewership to 4.5 million.
To quiet rumblings that UPN's days are numbered, network owners Paramount Pictures and Chris Craft's BHC Communications were issued a statement that they were committed to UPN and its future.
UPN executives said they expected some tough times as they tried to change the network's image.
"It's like a shot glass," said Tom Nunan, UPN entertainment president. "Our audience is the size of a shot glass. What we're trying to do is increase the size of the glass and get it overflowing."
Prior to this year, UPN was known largely for its Star Trek: Voyager series and several sitcoms that appealed to African-American audiences. Viewership was 43 percent
"What we're trying to do is increase the size of the glass and get it overflowing"
Tom Nunan
UPN entertainment president
African-American last season, higher than any other broadcaster. But the poor quality of the shows opened UPN to criticism.
Startup networks put on black-oriented shows and later eliminate them to reach a broader audience, said Travis Smiley, host of a Black Entertainment Television talk show.
"African Americans have had it with networks using us to build their networks and then abandoning their black viewership," he said.
Nunan said he did not think UPN was leaving his black audience behind.

'Hawks have to fight history, tough team
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
Roy Williams had never coached the Jayhawks in the legendary Philadelphia Palestra sports arena. Legendary announcers Max Falkenstien and Bob Davis had never called a game in the Palestra.
The only solution Kansas coach Roy Williams could find for this situation was to schedule a game against University of Pennsylvania in the Palestra.
"At the time it sounded good, and that's Bob Davis' fault," Williams said. "Last year we were in Washington D.C., and we were getting ready to play Penn, and he said, 'one place I have never called a game at is the Palestra.' I asked him if Max (Falkenstien) had done a game there, and he said he could not remember. So I figured as old as those guys are, we ought to give them that opportunity."
As an assistant coach at North Carolina, Williams coached the Tar Heels in the Palestra in a 79-72 defeat of La Salle.
Eighth-ranked Kansas (1-0) will face Penn (0-0) for only the second time in school history. Last season the Jayhawks defeated the Quakers 89-71 in Washington D.C., in the consolation game of the Franklin Bank Classic.
The Quakers could be quite a challenge for the young Jayhawks. Penn returns four starters, all of whom averaged in double figures for the team last season.
Williams questioned his decision to schedule the Quakers, just so his announcers could go to the Palestra.
"Playing Penn at Penn, they have four starters back this year," he said. "They played us well last year in Washington D.C. Now I think it's a dumb team for us to be playing."
Nick Bradford, junior forward, remembers playing a tough team last year, but said if the Jayhawks just stuck to Kansas-style ball they would be fine.
"I remember playing them last year and they were a very good ball club." Bradford said. "We've just got to go in there and do what we do best."
Williams is more than familiar with former Tar Heel and NBA super star Michael
Jordan, and after tonight he could be all-too familiar with another Michael Jordan
Jordan, 6-0 guard, is the top returning scorer for the Quakers, averaging 15.3 points last season. Last year, Jordan scored 12 points and had four assists against Kansas.
Including Penn, Kansas has four non-conference road games. The Jayhawks' non-conference schedule may be a challenge, but Williams said it was good for Kansas to get the experience early in the season.
"If you look at a lot of the top teams around the country, there are not many teams that play four true non-conference road games," Williams said. "We play those plus UNLV in Springfield and Kentucky in Chicago. The top teams don't usually play that many. The strength of our early schedule provides a challenge for us and should tell us a lot about our basketball team."

Kansas distance legend stunned running world
By Cal Butcher
Special to the Kansan
Billy Mills is a Oglala Sioux warrior whose given Native-American name is Loves His Country.
That — not his 1964 upset win in the 10,000-meter run at the Tokyo Olympics or his 1965 world record in the six-mile run — is his most important accomplishment, he said.
Mills, who was born on a reservation and grew up to be a Marine lieutenant, joined Bill Easton's Kansas cross country and track teams in the late 1950s. He was a member of the Jayhawks' 1959 and 1960 NCAA Championship teams in outdoor track and field.
Current head coach Gary Schwartz was a member of the Kansas track team just after Mills left.
"I don't think anybody really appreciated him while he was here," Schwartz said. "It was just one of those things nobody expected."
But Mills vaulted from obscurity into the spotlight in 1964.
But it was Billy Mills who came out of nowhere to win one of the most exciting races in Olympic history.
At that year's Olympics, he was one of a trio of Kansas track legends. Al Oerter won the third of his four gold medals in the discus. Jim Ryun ran in the first of three Olympics in the 1,500 meter-run, even though he was only 17 and still in high school.
His qualifying time in the 10,000-meter run was 29:10.4, nearly a full minute behind Australian Ron Clarke's world record.
On the final lap of the race, Mills was caught in a pack of runners and trailed Clarke and Tunisian Mohamed Gammoud. He found one last burst of energy in the final 100 meters. His time of 28:24.4 was
a new Olympic record and 46 seconds faster than his own previous best.

The Cardinals joined 33 other automatic team qualifiers from the nine regional meets that were held Saturday.
The second-ranked Stanford men's cross country team will try to defend its title on Monday at the NCAA Championships at Rim Rock Farm.
Cross country teams set for championships
Joining Stanford as an automatic qualifier are two Big 12 Conference teams, including ninth-ranked Oklahoma State and fourth-ranked Colorado.
On the women's side, defending champion and the top-ranked BYU Cougars were among the 34 automatic qualifiers. Four Big 12 schools earned automatic bids to the women's race, including 15th-ranked Kansas State, 22nd-ranked Colorado, Baylor and Missouri.
"I think there were a lot of surprises on Saturday, but overall most of the teams that should have advanced to the championships did so," said Kansas coach Gary Schwartz.
Schwartz also said that on the men's side, Arkansas and Stanford are the teams to beat, and BYU and Stanford are the ten women's teams.
There were 72 individual men's and women's automatic qualifiers for nationals, including Kansas' Brian Jensen, who finished second at the Midwest Regional.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 17).
Today's lesson (10.7. 17): You're absolutely awesome. You have powers you barely can comprehend. That means you need to be responsible. Start by stashing away your hoard in December. Be generous and thrify at the same time, with imagination, and you've got plenty of that. In January and February, a dream comes true.
Artes (March 21- April 19): Today is a 6. The sun and moon are in Scorpio, but Venus is going into Sagittarius. Scorpio is a dominant sign, preferring things to go exactly as planned. Sagittarius is a free spirit, and with Venus in Sagittarius, freedom will be important in relationships. If a decision or commitment is imminent, make sure it gives you breathing room.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
If things are not going the way you thought you wanted and they haven't been for quite some time, take a look at the situation again. Maybe you're helping maintain something uncomfortable because it's familiar. This happens, and it's likely to be noticeable today.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
The lesson for today is taking care of others, and somebody in your life might come right out and remind you in no uncertain terms. If you've got children with Scorpion in their charts, you'll know it today. They want things just the way they want 'em, and no deviation will be allowed. It's almost not worth arguing about.
P
Cancer (June 22-July 23); Today is a 7. Your intuition is excellent, especially concerning romance. You should be able to tell for sure whether the person you are with is THE ONE. The only problem: you may want to be independent and resist settling down, even if you've already settled down. Give each other room to breathe.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
There's a pull for you to stay home and take care of personal matters. One of your children may request you do that, or perhaps your sweetheart wants your attention.
Spend as much time at that sort of thing as you can.
男女
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
You'll be amazed at how easy it is to learn. One of the best ways you learn is by working with a talented expert.
You ask questions, but you gain the most by watching and working with someone who knows what he or she is doing. Go the extra trouble to make that happen.
O
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 5.
There's money coming in and tough decisions to be made. You have trouble making decisions, if you're like most Libras. You'll be able to decide easily what needs to be done, especially in financial matters.
Don't worry that you'll spend too much. You're more likely to gain than to lose.
Scarpia (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) Today is a 5.
You're looking excellent. You're under stress so that's even more impressive. You may say something you didn't expected to. Be careful. There's a tendency to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but, even to your disadvantage. Avoid a situation where spilling the beans could do damage.
Lion
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Something supposed to be done by now is coming due.
You want to comply but don't want to give up freedom.
Is there a conflict between what you want and what someone says you must do? Getting folks on your side is a good idea. Make one of them an attorney.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 7.
You've got travel on your mind and might pull it off.
Start by learning a foreign language. A class would be an interesting environment. You might meet people who would be good connections when you make your trip. Try something new today. It'll work out.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Your team is red hot and determined to succeed.
With your help, they will. They've got the energy, and you've got the spark to keep them going. They'll talk and plan. You go in there and light the fuse that gets them activated. Watch out for the emotional snailpelt.
D
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Looks like a strong authority figure has you nailed down. You can't do much except just go along with orders. Try not to complain much. Your friends are going to have more time for you, and they'll understand what you're going through.

Tigers crave glory away from home
Basketball team's weak road record fails to shake optimism of coach,team
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter
The Missouri men's basketball team has a good chance of curing its road woes from a year ago.
The Tigers lost all 10 road games last season, including the eight conference games, en route to a 17-15 overall record and an 8-8 mark in Big 12 play.
Missouri coach Norm Stewart, in his 32nd year as the head man for the Tigers, is optimistic about his team's chances.
"We don't need to start off the Big 12 shooting ourselves in the foot," he said. "We have a great ball club, and we're going to have a great year. I hope we're one of the ball clubs up on top at the end of the season. I think we have a chance to do that. I feel that we have a shot."
The Tigers are returning three starters and seven letterman, but
they will have to fill the void left by the graduation of their two top scorers, Kelly Thames (14.8 points per game) and Tyron Lee (11.6 points per game). A large portion of the scoring should come from shooting guard John Woods and small forward Albert White.
Woods earned honorable-mention All-Big 12 honors last season with 11.4 points per game, which was the third highest on the team. As one of the team's two seniors, Woods will be expected to increase his point production and his leadership on the court.
Woods, like Stewart, is looking forward to the 1988-1999 season.
will just continue to stick to my game, and hopefully that will carry over to good things."
"Coming in from junior college, I had to make an adjustment." Woods said. "The main thing I learned was patience. This year, I hope to continue what I did last year: Knock the open three down, and do things I don't normally do. I
White led the Tigers with 22 points Friday in their season-opening 87-46 victory against Jackson

last year, averaging seven points and 5.5 boards a game, and earned a spot on the Big 12's All-Improved team.
Hardge, who has returned from several injuries throughout his career in Columbia, Mo., is going into his final season with the same
philosophy he always has had.
"I'm not taking this season any different than any other year," he said. "I have the same purpose every time I go out to play. My goal is to get to the national tournament and win the national championship. I know this is my last chance that I have to do this, but I don't come out any more determined than my three other seasons."
Also returning are guards Jeff Hafer and Brian Grawer.
Hafer saw playing time on the wing last year, averaging 5.8 points and 3.4 rebounds per game.
Crawler earned the starting point guard job in mid-December last year. He led the Tigers in three-point shooting percentage with 45.6 percent.
Missouri has one of the top recruiting classes in the nation. The class is highlighted by Parade All-American Keyon Dooling. Dooling has been outstanding in preseason workouts, and he should challenge Grawer for the starting point guard spot.
Mizzou women look to turn losing tide
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Missouri women's basketball will have a different look this season.
Joann Rutherford had been the head coach at Missouri since 1976, but after two straight 3-13 seasons in the Big 12 Conference, it was time for a change.
Enter Cindy Stein, whose coaching record gives Tiger fans hope. Stein had spent the last three seasons at Emporia State, taking the Hornets from a 12-14 record her first year to 33-straight victories and the NCAA Division II championship last year.
"You'll see an exciting brand of basketball, we'll push the ball up the floor every chance we get. Our best five or six players, that's what they do best. The rest of them will have to hop on board."
Cindy Stein Missouri women's head coach
Stein's teams were known for their up-tempo style and even set the Division II record by scoring 122 points against Shippensburg State last year.
"It's kind of a player's dream," said junior Julie Helm, last year's leading scoreer. "It's good because half the time you can beat the other team down the floor."
The Tigers scored just 67 points per game last season, a number Stein is confident will increase this season.
"You'll see an exciting brand of basketball," Stein said. "We'll push the ball up the floor every chance we get. Our best five or six players, that's what they do best. The rest of them will have to hop on board."
Those five or six players are led by Helm and forward Kesha Bonds, last year's top two scorers. Helm's 19.9 scoring average was second in the conference. She broke the 20-point mark in 16 of the team's 27 games.
"I want the leadership role."
Helm said, "I'm not going to belittle my teammates because I'm not that kind of person, and I think they respect me for that."
Bonds averaged 14.5 points and 10.1 rebounds per game. Her rebounding average was tops in the league.
"When you have two great players, you have to make sure they get a lot of touches," Stein said. "But I don't like to hide players offensively. I want all five players on the court to be active."
The transition will not be easy for Missouri. All the players were recruited by Rutherford to play her more conservative offensive and defensive styles.
Now, the Tigers must adjust to a more rapid pace.
"I think I'll enjoy it, but I've never played it before," Bondsaid. "In high school and my first three years here, it was a slower game."
Stein knows it will take her team at least a few years to make the change. Stein said the timetable would depend on her success in recruiting players capable of running her system.
fanning her system.
Stein's record at Emporia State shows that she is capable of turning a program around in a short time, but many doubt how much success Missouri will have this season. The Tigers were picked last in the Big 12 in both the pre-season coaches' and media poll.
"That's motivating," Helm said. "We don't like to be picked 12th, but that just comes from how we finished last year and the coaching change."
Missouri's first game will be Nov. 19 against Bradley in Columbia, Mo. The Tigers play Kansas on Jan. 13 in Lawrence and on Feb. 7 in Columbia.
Clemson enters Top 25; Kansas retains position
The Associated Press
CLEMSON, S.C. — Armed with an opening victory against a little-known oppo
Paw
nent, Clemson became the lone newcomer to The Associated Press Top 25 yesterday.
The Tigers jumped into the No. 24 spot after beating Arkansas-Pine Bluff 83-59 Friday night.
"We probably won't pay a lot of attention to it at this point in time," first-year Clemson coach Larry Shyatt said.
If he wasn't paying attention, others were. During a midmorning phone call, Shyatt was interrupted by Clemson President Constantine Curris.
"He called with his congratulations," the coach said. "So that's pretty nice."
The top eight, led by Duke, held their preseason places in the first poll of the regular season.
The Blue Devils (1-0)
received 42 first-place votes
from the national media
panel, and their 1,738 points
were 41 more than Connec ticut (1-0), which was No.1 on 18 ballots.
S
Stanford (1-0)
was third
with 10 first-
place votes
and 1,637 points, while defending national champion Kentucky, which opens its season today, had the other first-place vote and 1,507 points.
Michigan State, Maryland,
Temple and Kansas remained
at Nes. 5 through 8, followed
by Utah and North Carolina,
which both moved up one
spot from the preseason poll.
It has been a dreary 1998 for
Clemson's signature sports.
The Tigers started last year fifth in the country, but by the time the season ended
"Being placed in any poll is, hopefully, a positive happening for the university, and it can stimulate everyone."
Larry Shyatt Clemson coach
last spring, they were 18-14 and first-round NCAA losers to Western Michigan.
Then a month later, coach Rick Barnes took off for Texas and Shyatt, his former assistant who was coaching at Wyoming, was given the Tigers' head job.
With Clemson's football team, 2-8, finishing its worst season in 23 years, no wonder Shyyt got the presidential treatment.
"Being placed in any poll is, hopefully, a positive happening for the university, and it can stimulate everyone," Shyatt said.
The Tigers faced Stetson last night and Western Carolina on Thursday.
In the Second 10, UCLA moved up a spot to No. 11, while Arizona, which beat then-No. 9 Tennessee in its opener, jumped from 18th to 12th. Oklahoma State was 13th and was followed in the Top 20 by Washington, Purdue, Xavier, Cincinnati, Tennessee, Arkansas and New Mexico.
The last five teams in the poll were Indiana, Syracuse, Massachusetts, Clemson and Rhode Island.
Clemson replaced Texas Christian (2-1), which lost to Rhode Island 89-87.
Tennessee (1-1) dropped from ninth to 18th after the 73-72 loss to Arizona in the BCA Classic at Albuquerque, N.M. The only other ranked team with a loss is Rhode Island (2-1), which dropped from 23rd to 25th after losing to Providence, 87-63.

Earlier this season, the Tigers visited Ohio State and matched up until the final quarter. Although they lost, that experience will help the Tigers immensely.
Columnist hates K-State despite inspiring season
Commentary
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Kansas State has forced me to think the Wildcats are the best college football team in the nation.
www.cjnetworks.com
Call 887-8013
Oh, was I sick to my stomach watching the scene unfold in Manhattan on Saturday.
As for Missouri, it has played with the best this year.
Although it killed me, I was rooting in desperation for Nebraska to win.
The Kansas men's basketball home opener was exactly what I was hoping for.
Ask for your free launch pad when you subscribe.
This Saturday, when K-State visits Columbia, Mo., to play against Missouri, it will be a closer game than expected.
But the common theme this season seems to be that every team for which Tony roots loses.
It seems as if every year the Jayhawks come out smoking and peak in November and December.
K-State could suffer a letdown after Saturday's big game. Remember, Nebraska vs. K-State was tabbed "THE GAME" for quite some time.
On Friday, the team won with pure talent.
No, don't call me crazy yet. Let me finish. Then you can call me names.
This is the way it probably will be for the next month or so, which all I want to see for now. I think it would be for the best if the Jayhawks lost a couple of non-conference road games (I never want to see them lose at home).
Those experiences would help the team in the long run. It would relieve some of the pressure of winning, and it would set up the Jayhawks as underdogs.
101
Furthermore, it would help the team deal with close games later in the season. It's better to get the losing out of our system now rather than in March.
And come tournament time when the 'Hawks are ranked No. 9 in the country, they won't have the cursed No. 1 seed.
It appears Kansas has no definitive court leader.
At times last Friday, the team looked as if it had no direction, something I think the team suffered from last season.
Teams need a vocal leader, someone to get in his teammates' faces when the team isn't playing well. Coach Williams does a good job of that, but the coaches and the players need a court leader, too.
Yes, I am jealous of K-State and their football program, but I still hate them.
Pacheco is an Olathe senior in Enalish.
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Coaches were polled informally during the league's weekly conference call. The vote for offensive MVP was 6-2 in favor of Bishop, with three coaches saying the two should share the honor.
The informal balloting suggests Williams, who needs 63 yards to break Tony Dorsett's 22-year NCAA Division I career rushing record, could win the Heisman without being named the best player in the Big 12 Conference
The Associated Press
K-State's Bishop leads in MVP poll
Colorado offensive coordinator Karl Dorrell said he favored co-MVPs in the Big 12 but he would support Williams for the Heisman.
Texas running back Ricky Williams might be a front-runner to win the Welsin Trophy, but a majority of Big 12 coaches said yesterday that Kansas State quarterback Michael Bishop is a better choice as the league's offensive player of the year.
While Bishop came out ahead, it wasn't an easy call.
"Whooo!" said Baylor coach Dave Roberts. "Good question. I don't know. That's a great question. Maybe they can be co(MVP). They've both been great. I hope there's a way they can share it."
"He's our backup punter." Snyder said. "He can do so many things and do them so well and gain the command of the football game against quality opponents. I think that was evidenced last weekend."
Bishop's national profile has been limited because Kansas State coach Bill Snyder has not let him talk to reporters for one month. Snyder said Bishop would do his talking on the field.
The results also suggest Bishop might rise in the Heisman race. He ran for two touchdowns and passed for two TDs as the No. 2 and 10-0 Wildcats beat Nebraska 40-30 last weekend.
Joining Stoney in voting for Bishop were Kansas coach Terry Allen, Oklahoma's John Blake, Bob Simmons of Oklahoma State, Texas tech coach Spike Dykes and Larry Smith of Missouri.
Smith wavered before settling on Bishop. The Tigers are home against Bishop and the Wildcats this weekend.
Voting for Williams were Texas coach Mack Brown and Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum. The Aggies end the regular season in Austin on Nov. 27 and play Kansas State in the Big 12 title game on Dec. 5.
"As good as Michael Bishop is, he's gotten more help than Ricky," Brown said. "Ricky hasn't had a lot of help, and he's still set lots of records."
Iowa State's Dan McCarney joined Roberts and Dorrell in saying the award can be shared. Nebraska's Frank Solich declined to vote.

Nike announces chemical reduction
Workers benefit from lower levels of bad solvents
The Associated Press
BANGKOK, Thailand — Nike announced yesterday it has reduced the amount of potentially unhealthy solvents used in making its shoes by almost three-fourths in the past three years.
Nike has set a goal of a 90 percent reduction by 2001, officials said, adding that the company intended to make sure that by the end of this year, no worker was exposed
to dangerous
to dangerous levels of vapors. The proportion exposed has fallen to less than 1 percent
Nike
on an average per-factory basis, the Beaverton, Ore... based company said at a seminar.
The company said it had installed new ventilation systems.
It also has replaced petroleum-based solvents with water-based chemicals, which have been equal in quality and cheaper to use, said Dick Crosbie, Nike's director of footwear chemical engineering operations.
The effort followed accusations of poor working conditions at the Asian factories where Nike makes its shoes.
Other shoe companies manufacture their products under similar conditions, but Nike attracted the most criticism because of its position as a market leader.
In May, Nike chairman Phil Knight promised to raise the
minimum age for workers at Nike's contract plants in Asia to 18, improve factory air quality, allow independent monitoring and provide free education for workers.
Nike shoes are made at 37 factories belonging to contractors in six Asian countries: China, Indonesia, Thailand, Taiwan, Vietnam and South Korea. The factories employ 180,000 people in all.
Representatives of Nike's competitors, such as Adidas and Reebok, attended yesterday's seminar by invitation. Nike is keen to share its experiences of replacing petroleum-based chemicals with water-based ones, said Dusty
Kidd, Nike's director for labor practices. The use of petroleum-based chemicals—technically known as volatile organic compounds poses serious health hazards when the vapors are present in high concentrations. VOCs are commonly used in the production of many products, including footwear, where they are used in adhesives, primers, cleaners and flushing agents.
Tests conducted in 1997-98 under the auspices of Nike's insurer, Reliance Insurance, identified 25 of those chemicals used in factories making Nike shoes and found seven of the chemicals present at levels exceeding industry-standard permissible exposure limits. It was estimated that of the 180,000 workers in Asia, 1,600 faced exposure to the hazardous chemicals.
About nine out of 10 pairs of Nike shoes now use water-based adhesives, Crosbie said.
Monday Night Football
Broncos thrash Kansas City 30-7
Denver ascends to 10-0;Chiefs lose 5th straight
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Denver Broncos are making their quest for an unbeaten season seem easy - with and without John Elway.
Bubby Brister, Elway's backup, ran 38 yards for a touchdown on the first series. Then Terrell Davis went 41 yards for a score as the Broncos jumped to a quick lead and went on to a 30-7 win against Kansas City last night.
The victory made the Broncos the first 10-0 team in the NFL since the 1991 Washington Redskins and put them on track for a Dec.21 confrontation in Miami with the Dolphins, who in 1972 were the last NFL team to go unbeaten.
Brister finished 13-of-23 for 180 yards and Davis, who leads the NFL in rushing, carried 18 times for 111 yards. The Denver defense held the Chiefs to 31 yards on the ground.
It was the fifth straight loss for Kansas City, (4-6), which looked before the season like the most
dangerous threat to the Broncos in both the AFC West and AFC as a whole.
---
But the Chiefs, who
nad never had even a four-game losing streak in Marty Schottenheimer's 10 seasons as coach, looked like a disparited bunch against the Broncos, who now have outscored opponents 114-13 in first quarters this season.
It took just 2:42 for Denver to take a 7-0 lead on the bootleg around right end by the 36-year-old Brister, now 4-0 as a starter in place of Elway, who is nursing
pulled rib muscles. Brister virtually was untouched after his fake to Davis pulled the entire Kansas City defense to the opposite side of the field.
The next score was even quicker — a 79-yard drive that took only three plays and 1:05 and was capped by the burst by Davis, who finished with 111 yards on 18 carries. He was tripped up 10 yards downfield, regained his balance and continued on into the end zone.
That was the game
The Chiefs cut it to 14-7 on an 87-yard drive that consumed almost 8 minutes of the second quarter and was capped by a 3-yard TD pass to Kimberly Anders from Rich Gannon, filling in for the benched Elvis Grbac.
But Jason Elam added 42 and 46-yard field goals before the half and a 35-yarder in the third quarter. Things officially ended with 7:36 left in the game when Gannon, who finished 26-of-39 for 224 yards, tripped and fell at the 20 on
CHIEFS
a fourth down at the Denver 10.
Derrick Loville added a final touchdown for the Broncos on a 1-yard run.
The game had deteriorated by then — Kansas City had five personal fouls, three by Derrick Thomas, on the drive. The Chiefs finished with 13 penalties for 137 vards.
This had looked like a possible trouble spot for Denver, particularly since it had lost its last three regular season games at Arrowhead. But the Broncos beat the Chiefs 14-10 in a playoff game last January.
Denver plays Oakland at home next week. The Broncos also have road games at San Diego and the New York Giants and a home game with the Chiefs before playing the Dolphins, who lead the AFC East at 7-3.
Clemens walks away with fifth Cy Young
Toronto Blue Jays pitcher unanimous AL selection
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Roger Clemens won his record fifth Cy Young Award yesterday in a unanimous vote, receiving the American League's pitching honor for the second straight year.
Clemens was a unanimous selection in 1986 and won the award in 1987 and 1991. The only other AL pitchers to get all first place votes were Ron Guidry in 1978 and Denny McLain in 1968.
kees teammate David Cone was fourth with four seconds and four thirds for 16 points.
Clemens tied for the AL lead in wins and was top in ERA and strikeouts.
The 36-year-old right-hander, who won his first three Cy Youngs with Boston, went 20-6 with a 2.65 ERA for Toronto, striking out 271 in 234 and two-thirds innings. He went unbeaten in his final 22 starts, winning 15 decisions.
Clemens, who gets a $250,000 bonus for winning the award, received all 28 first-place votes from the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
Boston's Pedro Martinez was second with 20 seconds and five thirds for 65 points, followed by David Wells of the New York Yankees, who got four seconds and 19 thirds for 31 points. Yan-
Toronto pitchers have won the award three straight years, with Clemens following Pat Hentzen in 1996.
When Clemens won the award last year, he joked his mission was complete.
"I got one for Koby and Kory, I got one for Kasy, and I needed one for Kody," said Clemens, reeling off the names of his children, all named with the letter K in honor of his strikeouts. "It kind of takes the pressure off dad a little bit."
On May 29, a repeat season seemed impossible. He was just 5-6, but then went on a tear.
B
Clemens: Wins a record fifth Cy Young Award.
While his agents explored trade possibilities in July, Clemens sounded upbeat about Toronto's future after the Blue Jays challenged
Boston for the AL wild card in September.
Everything became a little bit more meaningful, and I think that was the big thing." Clemens said on the season's final weekend. "I think that some guys need to go home and know that they can be better."
But he again became frustrated after watching Toronto go into an offseason stall as executives waited for a budget from the team's owner, the Belgian company Interbrew.
"I'd like for someone to let me know which way the team is going," Clemens said in a statement on his Web site. "After all, this uncertainty has been lingering for two whole years. And that's the biggest disappointment to me."
And if not, he might push for a trade. He was interested in going to the New York Yankees last summer, and the Red Sox might be interested in getting him back. Boston general manager Dan Duquette is still criticized for letting Clemens leave after the 1996 season.
Clemens keeps waiting for a signal from Blue Jays general manager Gord Ash.
"What do they want to do?" Clemens asked. "Are they going to get some guys who will help bring another World Series to Toronto?"

Source: Rec center survey and Student Senate
"Overall," the voice on the phone says, "how would you rate the quality of KU's recreational sports and fitness facilities? Please rank one to five, with one being very poor and five being very good."
Julie Neal picks up her phone and becomes another statistic in the latest push for a new recreational facility at the University of Kansas.
The questions and answers continue to flow for 10 minutes as the Joplin, Mo., freshman gives her opinion on the recreational opportunities at the University.
The survey is part of a Student Senate project measuring—some say molding—student opinion about a new campus rec center.
A pitch for better gyms, courts and exercise equipment, as well as more time to use them, has become a reoccurring theme at the University.
"This is my 18th year here," said Mary Chappell, director of rec services. "This problem is not going to go away. We've reached a point where we're not able to provide what students want."
Faculty members and student body pres-
ident Kevin Yoder cite loads of complaints
about Robinson Center, its hours, its equipment and its size.
"It's not even close to what we need," said Bob Lockwood, Robinson facilities director.
Two years ago, KU students voted down a student fee increase for a $21.5 million recreational center. This year, Yoder
hopes for a different result when he proposes another recreation center construction plan. He is giving a report to Senate tonight, outlining what his recreation task force has found out about student opinion.
Many think the 1966 referendum failed for two reasons: the student recreation fee
increase from $13 to $00 was too much and the West Campus location was too remote.
The new proposal calls for a smaller fee increase and is fuzzy about where the new rec center would be built.

Neighborhood bar proposal to be drafted
By Chris Fickett Konson staff writer
Bars such as The Hawk, The Crossing. The Wheel and Bull Winkles that are located in residential neighborhoods could be closing a little earlier if the Lawrence City Commission approves a neighborhood bar ordinance.
Last night, Commissioner John Nalbandian made a motion to draft an ordinance that would restrict drinking establishments located within 200 feet of two or more residential houses and in predominantly residential areas to a midnight closing time.
Nalbandian's motion was approved with votes from commissioners Bob Moody and Erv Hodges.
The commission voted 4-1 to allow the bar to stay open until 2 a.m., but it also directed city staff to examine the problems associated with neighborhood bars
The decision to draft an ordinance stems from an Oct. 6 action, when the commissioners considered the closing time for The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St.
and outline possibilities for an ordnance that would deal with the issue.
Commissioner Moody said no matter what decision was made, either the neighborhood or the bar owners would suffer.
"We're in a lose-lose proposition," he said.
Commissioner Hodges voted 'yes' to draft the ordinance, but he said he would like to discuss the specifics of the ordinance when it came back to the commission for approval.
Mayor Martin Kennedy wanted to table the issue until the Lawrence-University of Kansas-Haskell Indian Nations University alcohol task force report comes out in mid-December.
Kennedy, along with Commissioner Bonnie Augustine, voted not to draft the ordinance. Augustine said law-abiding drinking establishments should not be punished by the actions of unruly patrons.
"People who are violating the law are not held responsible," she said. "I get
frustrated when the good bar owners get penalized for a few."
Sam Raisbeck, Lawrence junior, said he could not sleep at 2 a.m. Wednesday through Saturday nights because of noise coming from customers leaving The Hawk, the Wheel and Bull Winkles.
Raisbeck also said he hadwitnessed people leaving the bars, urinating and vomiting on streets and front lawns.
Janet Gerstner, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said the Oread Neighborhood board strongly supported a midnight closing time and the prohibition of outdoor drinking areas for Oread Neighborhood bars.
"These places do not belong in the area where I live," he said.
Gerstner also said if The Crossing, 618 W. 12th St., could close at midnight and stay in business, The Hawk and The Wheel could as well.
ORDINANCE
Rob Farha, owner of the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 14th and Ohio streets, said all bars were different. Farha said every bar had different amounts of rent and overhead
The Lawrence City Commission voted 3-2 last night to draft a neighborhood bar ordinance. If approved by the commission, the ordinance would:
Require a midnight closing time for drinking establishments located within 200 feet of two or more residential houses.
- Require a midnight closing time for drinking establishments located in predominantly residential areas.
Owners of bars that are affected by this ordinance can petition the city commission for a variance.
If a bar requested a variance, the commission would hold a public hearing to decide if the bar would be allowed to close at 2 a.m. instead of midnight.
costs and different peak hours and clientele.
Commissioner Nalbandian said the ordinance should include a variance provision that would allow bar owners who would be affected by the ordinance to petition the commission to close at 2 a.m. instead of midnight.
University to examine hang tag regulations
By Seth Jones and Liz Wristen Kansan staff writers
For 12 weeks this semester, the parking board has been denying requests for hang tags because of a rule that doesn't exist.
At yesterday's Senate Executive Committee meeting, members talked with Don Kearns, director of parking, and Glenn Prescott, parking board chairman, about why students were being denied hang tags.
The parking board has been denying requests from students for hang tags unless they had two vehicles that they drove to school. Last year, when the parking department decided to go back to stickers as parking permits because so many hang tags were being stolen, the department agreed that students could get a hang tag simply by asking for one.
Bob Hohn, Senate Executive Committee chairman, read examples of students' being denied hang tags. One example was because a student didn't want to put a sticker on the car, and another was because someone was afraid children would rip the sticker off.
Bob Basow, University council president, said if there were criteria that had to be met, students needed to be informed.
"Right now, it states if you want one, you get one," he said. "By denying students hang tags, we're enforcing a rule we don't have."
Basow suggested that the parking board grant hang tags to everyone who wanted one and at the beginning of next semester, create rules on criteria.
"There should be two reasons to want a hang tag," he said. "One, you drive multiple cars, and two, you car pool."
Prescott said he thought it was a misunderstanding for the policy to say that anyone could get a hang tag, and the board's original intention was for hang tags to be limited to specific circumstances.
"Somewhere along the way, the original wording of the policy was confused," he said.
Prescott said all students who originally were denied hang tags would be written letters saying they could have one and that students who wanted hang tags had until the end of the semester.
"Assuming the chancellor approves the change, then we'll apply new rules at the end of this semester as to who can and who can't get a hang tag," he said.
Prescott said once students had a hang tag, they would not be affected by rule changes next semester.
"As long as they get the hang tag this semester when it's stated that they can have one, I don't see any effort to try to get the hang tags back after we've issued them," he said.
Kearns said the reason for changing from hang tags to stickers was the high number of hang tag thefts, especially in residence hall areas.
Kansas Union runs dry after University bans alcohol sale
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas student Jason Ziemianski said he would not go bowling at the Jaybowl again.
By Pallavi Agarwal
The Mission Hills senior was upset that alcohol no longer will be served in the Kansas Union, where the Javbowl is on the bottom floor.
"This is going to take away from my support of the Kansas Union," he said.
Starting last week, the University banned the sale of alcohol in
Warner Ferguson, associate director of the Kansas Union, said the decision did not bother him.
the Kansas Union after a citywide task force recommended stricter alcohol-use policies to prevent alcohol abuse among students. The University is already a dry campus.
"Students don't look at the Union as a place to have beer," he said.
"The sale of cereal malt beverages in the Union has been dwindling every year."
cereal malt beverages, and beer previously had been sold over the counter at food services and the Jaybowl. It also was served at catered functions and private parties in the Union.
The Union has a license to sell
Mollie Divine, Wayzata, Minn., senior, said she was not going to miss drinking beer in the Union.
"If I'm going to drink, I buy beer at the liquor store or the bar," she said. "The only people I know who drank at the Union were friends who worked there and would steal it and drink it."
But while most students cannot drink on campus, alcohol may be served in at least two campus locations—the chancellor's residence and the Naismith Club, in the Wagonnan Center, adjacent to the Allen Field House.

"The chancellor's residence is a residence where a family lives, and alcohol is used for official entertaining." he said. "At fraternities and sororites, a vast number of those who consume alcohol are under 21 years."

The Adams Alumni Center, which is adjacent to the University. also serves alcohol.
Weinberg said University directives did not apply to the alumni center because it was not a part of the University.

indiscreet observer sits on student's roof
A 23-year-old Lawrence man looked out his window Sunday night and saw another man sitting on his roof and looking into his house.
Poeice said the peeper was able to see into the house, in the 1600 block of Rhode Island Street, through the window because part of the roof sloped down in front of the man's bedroom window.
Police said they did not know if the peeper was looking in through a ground level window or a higher one.
Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said that the man reported that at 10:40 p.m. he had gotten tired after watching television and decided to go to bed.
"He opened his bedroom window to get some fresh air, when he saw a man sitting outside his window," he said. "The man screamed at the suspect, who fled in an unknown direction."
At 10:45 p.m., the man called the police, who determined that, in his rush to get off the roof, the suspect had bent the house's gutter and had broken some lattice work, causing $300 in damages.
Woman reports rape theft during weekend
Police are looking for a white male in his thirties with a slender build and dark curly hair. He was last seen wearing glasses.
A Lawrence woman reported to police that she was raped early Sunday morning in her Pennsylvania Street home.
Lawrence police said that the incident began at 4:45 a.m. when an acquaintance of the 22-year-old victim knocked on her door.
Wheeler said when the man left the woman's home, he took $245 from the top of her dresser.
"She let him in," said Lawrence Police Stg. George Wheeler. "He pushed her into the bedroom and forced her to have sexual intercourse with him."
Police have yet to contact the 28-year-old Kansas City, Mo. suspect, but they believe him to be in the Kansas City area.
The man faces charges of rape and theft.
Lawrence High School reports missing items
Lawrence High School officials reported two pieces of electronic equipment missing Nov. 11. The items were last seen Oct. 15.
A school employee discovered an
LCD power projector used to project images from a computer screen, a VCR and the metal cart they were both chained to were not in the school's library computer room.
"They put a note up on the bulletin board saying it was missing, but nobody has returned it yet," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police are investigating the report as a legitimate felony theft, but Sgt. Wheeler said that he was not completely sure that the items were stolen.
"It could be that someone has borrowed it but just hasn't returned it yet," he said.

Police honor officer who ended rampage
ST. JOSEPH, Mo. — Sgt. Billy Paul Milter raised his .45-caliber pistol, ducked out from behind the corner of a grocery store and fired.
He had shot a suspect once before, but this was different. The gunman crouching 145 feet away on a church lawn had already fired hundreds of rounds from an assault rifle and now had his sights trained on a group of police officers.
Three passersby had already been wounded, and, a block away, Officer Bradley Am lay in his police cruiser, dying of a bullet wound to the head.
Miller's shot found its mark. William E. Lattin Jr. fell dead, his rampage ended.
"From 145 feet away, under fire, he stopped this crazed individual," Police Chief Jim Montgomery said.
Am'rs widow and 2-year-old twin daughters were among the crowd packing the Council Chambers at City Hall as Miller received the Medal of Honor.
Federal Reserve moves to protect U.S. economy
WASHINGTON — The Federal Reserve today reduced short-term interest rates by one-quarter of a percentage point.
It was the third time in seven weeks it had acted to inoculate the U.S. economy against spillover from world financial turmoil.
Rates on a variety of consumer and business loans, from credit cards to auto loans, were expected to fall in response to the Fed's action. The largely symbolic discount rate, which the Federal Reserve charges on its own loans, also was reduced by a quarter
The central bank's monetary policy panel voted to move the benchmark federal funds rate, charged on overnight loans between banks, to 4.75 percent, from 5 percent.
point, to 4.5 percent.
The federal funds rate reduction, to the lowest level in four years, was the third since Sept. 29, when rates were cut for the first time in three years. The rates dropped again Oct. 15.
Tapes of former intern released to U.S. public
WASHINGTON — Americans got their first earful of Monica Lewinsky's voice yesterday. She comes through on the Linda Tripp tapes by turns earnest, girlish and matter-of-fact about her relationship with President Clinton, the man she jokingly calls "the Creep."
The voice of the former White House intern, now 25, is at times playful and enthusiastic. The older friend who secretly recorded their telephone conversations, Tripp, offers a deeper, throatier counterpoint.
The words on the 37 tapes — 22 hours worth of conversation — aren't new. The House Judiciary Committee released transcripts of the tapes Oct. 2. With release of the audio, immediately broadcast on radio and television, nuances of voice and inflection were added to the mix.
Tripp volunteered her tapes to Independent Counsel Kenneth Stair in January, triggering his 10-month, $4.4 million investigation of the president's relationship with Lewinsky and their efforts to conceal it even as it became an issue in the Paula Jones sexual harassment lawsuit.

Ex-Chilean dictator may be tried for murder
LONDON — A judge yesterday ordered Gen. Augusto Pinochet to appear before a London court on Dec. 2 — unless the former Chilean dictator wins a legal battle for immunity.
Pinochet has not been seen in public since his Oct. 16 arrest on a Spanish warrant seeking his extradition to face charges he was responsible for genocide, murder and torture during his 1973-90 rule. The warrant alleges Pinochet's victims included Spanish citizens in Chile.
During an extradition hearing, Alun Jones — an attorney for Spanish prosecutors seeking to overturn a High Court ruling that Pinochet has immunity from arrest — said "information we have is that he is fit enough to be discharged from the hospital."
In a separate hearing, Judge Andrew Collins altered Pincotet's bail conditions. Now he can leave the Grovelands Priory hospital.

Geography activities put students on map

Dots on a map are not the only aspect of geography.
Garth Myers, assistant professor of
Students from Free State High School will be on campus today listening to presentations and doing some hands-on experiments with different aspects of geography.
At least that is what the University of Kansas Geography Department wants to impress upon visiting students today
Garth Myers, assista geography and African studies, will make a presentation to the students about his cultural geography research in Tanzania.

"I would like to see
"I would like to see more American students get excited by geography early," Myers.
Ratna Radhakrishna and Mark Carper, graduate teaching assistants, organized the event in conjunction with the national Geography Awareness Week.
"This is the first year we have organized something for geography week, so we are starting off slow," Radhakrishna said.
The idea was developed by Carper, who initially wanted to include University students in the event.
Radhakrishna and Carper put together a display in the Kansas Union near the Student Union Activities office for University students.
"I am new to KU, and my old university had an open house," he said. "We were unsure how many people would go, so we arranged a meeting with a captive audience."
ON THE RECORD
A KU student and a KU employee collided while driving at 2:05 p.m. Friday in Lot 9 southeast of Memorial Stadium, the KU Public Safety Office said.
A KU employee's lost parking permit was stolen between 8:20 and 8:35 a.m. Monday on West 15th Street, the KU Public Safety Office said. The man told police the permit blew out his window while he was driving to work. He and an officer searched the area and could not find it. The permit was valued at $150.
A KU student's vehicle was scratched on the trunk lid between 8 p.m. Sunday and 1 p.m. Monday in Lot 103 west of Hashinger, Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the student's vehicle was estimated at $200.
The student's vehicle was estimated KU police responded to a fire alarm Monday in a Stouftner Place apartment, the KU Public Safety Office said. The alarm went off when someone was cooking and had shut itself off before officers arrived.

Hunger Banquet leaves students full of guilt

Kansan staff writer
The majority of the participants at last night's fifth annual Hunger Banquet tasted what it was like to leave dinner still hungry.
Participants each received an identity of an individual whose lives they would lead during the banquet. The event was free, but participants could donate money.
This new identity propelled each of the 42 participants into a distinct social class. Fifteen percent of participants were members of the upper class, 40 percent were middle class and the remaining 45 percent were poor, said Corey Snyder, co-coordinator of Concerned Aware and Active Students and Toneka sophomore.
The social class determined how much and how well the participant could eat at the banquet. The purpose of the hunger banquet is to give participants a better understanding of the unequal distribution of the world's food, Snyder said.
Food for the banquet was donated by Alvin's IGA, 901 Iowa St.; Community Mercantile Co-op, 901 Mississippi St.; Glass Onion, 624 W. 12th St.; Liz Karr Catering, 512 E. Ninth St.; Paisano's Ristorante, 2112 W. 25th St.; and Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St.
Participants who received membership privileges into the upper class sat at decorated tables, and they dined on pizza, breadsticks and cake.
With the benefits of full stomachs, participants experienced guilt.
A middle class member said that she also experienced guilt.
Before the banquet, Christy Zimmer, Tecumseh sophomore, had been assigned to the poor
class. Her character was allowed to advance during the banquet, in order to illustrate how some individuals move up in the world.
"I felt guilty. I had plenty of food," said Zimmer.
nose who were the middle class ate from plastic plates and drank from plastic glasses. Although they left the banquet full, they ate only beans, rice, bread and carrots.
The poor participants dined upon beans, rice and water.
"It teaches you to attempt to understand world hunger in real terms," said Chris Hess, codirector of the Center for Community Outreach and Wichita junior.
Being catapulted into the hypothetical world of the hungry made some participants more aware of the situation of the world.
Lower turnout than in the past helped contribute to the education of participants. Snyder said that the low turnout provided an environment where the subject hit home.
Recreation task force ends survey
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
The recreation task force will submit its findings to Student Senate at tomorrow night's meeting, the last of the semester.
The group has been working for several weeks now, doing everything from phone surveys to presentations at residence halls to find out what students want, if anything, from a recreation center.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, has helped compile the information.
"We're not looking for any action tomorrow," he said. "We're simply
Marlon Marshall, engineering senator and task force member, would not hint at what the task force found out but said the group had made tremendous progress since it started.
presenting what our research has found."
"I remember at the first meeting when we were talking about what we were going to do," he said, "Since then, we've gotten a lot of feedback."
Kaiser bases the success of the first semester by looking at what Senate's goals were at the beginning
"We wanted to improve parking, and Park-n-Ride has been very successful," he said. "We've seen
progress made with online enrollment. None of this success is because of one person. It's because of a good Student Senate as a whole."
Julie Numrich, Student Executive Committee chairwoman, said the spring semester also should be busy. She said everyone, whether they are leaving or are running for re-election, wants to get things done.
Kaiser was also looking for the next semester to be productive.
"Next semester, students will have the opportunity to take a hard look at recreation on our campus," he said. "They'll also see a proposal from the campus safety task force on steps to improve safety at KU."
Meteors shower skies
The friends, a meteor shower that travels near Earth every year, appeared yesterday.
• Once a year when the earth crosses the orbital path of Comet Tempel Tuttle, a meteor shower is visible from Earth.
• This year, the shower is more visible because of its closeness to Earth.
• The best viewing time for North America was Tuesday morning. Daylight prevented North America from seeing the display.
Meteor facts:
• The average velocity of the meteors is 71 Km/s.
• The meteor storm's visibility peaks every 23 minutes.
• In 1833 and 1966 Comet Tempel Tuttle almost entered the Earth's atmosphere.

Celestial showers light up night skies
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
The Leonid meteor shower makes its annual appearance this week, but because of weather and location the Kansas skies will not provide prime viewing.
The Leonid meteor shower happens once a year when the Earth crosses the orbital path of Comet Tempel-Tuttle, said Barbara Anthony-Twarog, professor of physics and astronomy. This year was expected to be a particularly strong shower because of the proximity of the comet to the Earth.
Anthony-Twarog said that there was a prediction of a very strong pulse of meteors yesterday afternoon. However, Americans would not have been
able to see these showers because the occurred in daylight hours.
She said that showers might have been so strong that they caused damage to satellites but that she hadn't yet heard any news.
The best show that Americans could see happened yesterday morning, Anthony-Twarog said.
"It's going to start to pop out after tonight," she said yesterday.
Ryan Shanks, Atchison senior, watched the shower last night with his Astronomy 191 class at Clinton Lake. He said that while he enjoyed the show there, the best aerial display he saw was in town.
"All of a sudden, the sky lift up and I looked up and there was this gorgeous, blue-green trail," he said. "It was awesome."
Because of cloudy conditions, last night was not the ideal time for meteor watchers. Anthony-Twarog said.
"People are probably going to have to watch the news from other places because the weather is kind of shutting down here," she said.
Jennifer Peterson, Topeka sophmore, said yesterday afternoon that she planned to watch the shower that night.
"What I might end up doing is driving out to the edge of town," she said.
Watching meteor showers is a bit of a tradition in Peterson's family.
"My dad got us started when we were little on astronomy," she said. "When there was a meteor shower we'd camp out in the building and build a tower so we could see it better."

Residents praised for disaster relief
As one of the worst natural disasters in history, Hurricane Mitch has paralyzed Central America. Many who have borne the burden of this terrible tragedy have been individuals who already were struggling to survive before the inclement weather arrived.
Fortunately, several local residents and businesses, as well as University of Kansas organizations, have contributed to the relief effort in those countries hardest hit by Mitch — Honduras, Guatemala and Nicaragua, the three poorest nations in the hemisphere after Haiti. For this, these individuals and organizations who are lending a helping hand deserve an overwhelming pat on the back for ameliorating the pain the disaster has caused.
The most immediately striking statistic is the number of deaths Mitch has inflicted. At least 20,000 people are dead or missing among the three countries. About 1 million more people are homeless. Bridges and roads destroyed in the storms are preventing some supplies from getting to certain communities.
KU, community organizations have helped victims of Hurricane Mitch.
The United States already has announced it will give $80 million in aid to the region. Much of the repair work, however, must be done on a local level. This is where University, city and state organizations contribute significantly.
Rev. Thad Holcombe of Ecumenical Christian Ministries, in conjunction with Latin American Solidarity, has raised $4,100 as well as multiple loads of clothes, food, medicine and other supplies. Holcombe said that the Athletics Department had arranged to haul the supplies to Central America and that he had talked with students and other Lawrence residents who planned to travel to the disaster area to help.
That this local relief effort has been a unified project is remarkable.
Churches of varying denominations, including Presbyterian, Catholic and Christian Scientist, have collaborated with the community to effect positive change in a crippled area thousands of miles away.
Although what already has been done is worthy of congratulations, we must continue to encourage people to donate what they can to the effort. As this is the most destructive event in recent Central American history, it will take years before the region has completely recovered.
completely residents and members of Lawrence residents and members of the University community should remain involved or become involved if they haven't already. The smallest donation of food, clothes or money may seem rather insignificant, but it certainly can do a lot of good for someone.
For those interested in helping out, take your donation to ECM, 1204 Oread Dr. Write your name and address on the parcel, as ECM wishes to thank all those who contribute.

Community should improve park
Centennial Park is a large chunk of land that rests between three busy streets and has a residential neighborhood to the west. It is used officially for Disc golf. However, the park is not aesthetically pleasing because of its dilapidated tennis courts and overgrown shrubbery. These elements drive away athletes or parents who wish to use the park.
This is a sad fate for a park that was bought 44 years ago by Lawrence residents for the city's centennial. However, it is still in the hands of the people of Lawrence to better the beauty and character of Centennial Park.
There are already plans to build a skate park over the tennis courts, and construction is nearly complete. The

city budget also allots money to renovate the park's restrooms and shelter.
The rest of the improvements will be decided at two public meetings scheduled this month. At the first meeting on Nov.14, Lawrence residents living near Centennial Park expressed desires to improve that park for the neighborhood children. Citizens can voice their ideas for improvements at the second meeting on Wednesday.

Perspective
The trouble with commercialization of our beautiful campus is not that the University is a pristine entity being defiled by soul-less corporations. That
Campus commercialization raises questions, revenues
defined by soul-less cor probably happened a long time ago. The problem now is how much is too much and why?
CARL MAYER
Although some relationships between businesses and the University are desirable and necessary, what has to be asked is whether and how the University should facilitate consumerism. In what way does it benefit the students? What role do we as students have in deciding where, when and to whom we are sold?
to whom we are living.
Consumerism tends to dominate American life. Are we really moths instinctively drawn to be zapped by glitzy advertisements? Do we accept that individuals are defined by distorted, shallow characteristics like what they drive, wear and eat?
Although capitalism has benefits, (even I enjoy a good product-placement shot now and then) its invisible hand helps to give us some very noticeable consequences, such as environmental degradation, social estrangement and class conflict brought about by economic inequality.
But let's not start forming a proletarian vanguard just yet. A university setting isn't going to be free from capitalism, nor should it be. This paper might not survive without advertisements.
Having vending machines on campus isn't a nasty imposition nor is evil to be found in a contract that gives one company sole rights to sell a product.
It all depends upon the situation. It seems that people want to have concessions on campus. Ok, so you can't get a Mountain Dew, I sympathize, but we don't have RC or a Starbucks either. There cannot be a true market for the soft-drink industry on campus. No one would be able to walk among all the machines.
Besides, competition between Coke and Pepsi is hardly what Adam Smith had in mind. Having a vending-machine contract is understandable and probably necessary, but then the University replaced our simple ID system with the poorly planned and reasoned smart card.
Neither Commerce Bank nor any other company has a natural right to our ID cards, or to come into our lives. But you
wouldn't know it by the way the University's administration quietly incorporated them into our wallets. If the sagacious University doesn't care how far we fall into the money trap, why should we as mere suppliers of the burning bush?
Wasn't it enough that our unions are quasi-private and therefore inundated with embarrassing giveaways by credit card representatives? Didn't they see students at Wescoe Beach involved in the same stupid transaction? Well, maybe it was a logical step for the University to sell off a required ID card to the company with the most knickknacks and allow them to set up an ATM.
The University became partners with Commerce Bank, and for whose benefit? Where was the student outey about how we had to use cash to buy things? Were there sit-ins in the chancellor's office because the old IDs weren't pretty enough? What possible advantage does a smart card offer besides new, technologically advanced ways to spend?
Indeed, the whole affair has been a disaster. Witness the bus fiasco and the fact that hardly anybody uses them even when they work.
I'm perplexed. Maybe my question is that even if these services were needed, why couldn't Coke pay for the vending-machine conversion, phase in new University-run cards with some or all of the same capabilities, and/or let those who were bedazzled by these chicaneries ante up with some bank?
Alas, Milton Friedman, you're as upset as Che Guevara would be with the University. Everyone was forced into a business relationship with Commerce Bank. There was no discussion or debate about this; Student Senate didn't take a vote on the issue
We vote on student fee increases either by representation or direct ballot but not on a card that created both total havoc for the student-run bus system and a questionable relationship between our school and a private financial institution that doesn't have our interests at heart? Does that make any sense?
The University has a lot of influence over the community and its students. It sets an example of how much consumerism can enroach while being palatable. We can handle Coke, but what will happen the next time a tasty company proposal touches the administration's desk? Haven't we had enough to drink already?

Thanksgiving appeals to student, dogs alike
Thanksgiving makes me think of decorating the house with dried corn, giant, balloon cartoon characters in the buildings and taking on

Everything I used to take for granted is seen with new appreciation, which I liken to the way my dogs must view our strange human activities

First they watch a human take a huge wrapped lump out of the refrigerator, remove the plastic and stuff the fleshy lump with wet bread.
every day. Thanksgiving must be especially peculiar to them.
They watch him or her wrestle it into a pan and heave it into the oven. Then that strange, fleshy thing starts to give off the odor of cooking meat and cornbread dressing with sage.
Soon, the dining-room table is being covered with what looks like a blanket, and there are strange, shiny dishes and glasses being placed on it.
If one of the male dogs tries to hike on one of the table legs, this elicits an even more earspilling scream from the humans than usual. The dogs quickly learn to stay clear of the dining room for a while if they don't want to be stepped on by the busy humans.
Then perhaps a guest or two arrives, carrying a side dish such as those green beans with the crispy onions on top. The humans seem happy to see the guests, but the dogs are a little cautious of the strangers. These people might try to steal the turkey.
The guests and most of the humans then sit in the living room and watch television as the dogs line up in front of the kitchen, watching for a morsel of food to drop from the counter onto the floor.
When all the humans have food on their plates, they all may stop and close their eyes while one of them talks in a solemn voice. One of the dogs may take this opportunity to jump up and try to sneak a bite of food from the table, only succeeding in knocking the spoon from the bowl of cranberry sauce and sending it flying into the next room, where it is licked clean by the other dogs.
The meal is otherwise uneventful. All the humans jabber and occasionally drop down a piece of turkey for the dogs to enjoy. After everyone has eaten way too much, the plates are cleared, and most of the humans return to the living room to watch television again.
Suddenly, with an announcement, it's ready. All the humans rush to grab a seat at the dining-room table. Numerous dishes of steaming food are brought in, and people talk excitedly as wine and sparkling grape juice are poured.
sion again! Around this time, the wet spot on the carpet is discovered, and all the dogs are sent outside, somewhat unjustly. Some of the humans wash the dishes while others fall asleep on the sofa and chairs.
One of the humans starts up the electric carving knife, which scares all the dogs half to death. The shy dog tinkles in panic, but this goes unnoticed by the humans for now.
The humans in the kitchen are getting frantic, trying to get everything ready at once. If one of the dogs gets underfoot, she will probably get yelled at. But it's worth the risk if the humans drop a giblet or a glob of mashed potatoes.
Later that evening, the guests go home and the dogs are let back inside. The turkey is cleaned of the last bits of meat, which are tossed to the dogs for being so good. The dogs then curl up to sleep in front of the fireplace or on the sofa, where they dream of turkey, family, friends and fall. All in all, it's a pleasant day and season — for dogs and college students.

University service group works to spread statewide
By Jason Pearce
Kansas staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway appointed a new public service task force yesterday that will consider ways to coordinate and communicate university-sponsored service efforts more effectively across the state.
Hemenway sent letters to 10 faculty members and two students yesterday notifying them of membership to the task force.
The letter stated the task force will continue the work of last year's Initiative 2001 strategic planning task force in the area of serving Kansans.
He said the Serve Kansans group noted the need for a mechanism to organize and coordinate public-service activities and to communicate effectively about its service activities.
"An important first step in crafting a strategy for more effectively serving Kansans is the development of an accurate picture of the University's service activity." Hemenway wrote in the letter.
The task force, which is led by Hemenway's counselor Reggie Robinson, will meet before the end of the semester to organize efforts and plan for next semester's work. The task force should make recommendations to Hemenway by the end of the spring semester.
Robinson said that the University provided many public services to Kansans but that those efforts lacked a systematic coordinating effort.
Some of the public services at the University - a Medical Center outreach program to western Kansas, a public administration service, and a Kansas Geological Survey service - are provided by individual departments.
Robinson said that this led to many sectors of the University to not know what programs were out there.
He said that the task force would look into the possibility of establishing a new office and developing a database that would keep track of all public service programs.

Another role of the task force, he said, would be to address how a new entity would be associated with the Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy. The institute is a new project to finance lectures, seminars, internships and to organize Dole's public-service archives of work as a U.S. Senator.
Erin Spiridigliozzi, assistant dean of College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and task force member, said that one of the charges of the task force would be to look at other universities and how they administer public service programs.
She said that the task force would weigh its options between establishing a new office or giving responsibilities to an existing office.

Playboy focuses on female customer
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansan staff writer
Playboy Enterprises Inc. plans to leap across the gender gap and focus some of its marketing on women.
An article last week in The Wall Street Journal said Playboy played to expand its audience to continue its recovery from financial problems during the 1980s.
The Journal said Christie Hefner, Playboy Enterprise Inc. chairwoman and chief executive, had several plans to gain the interest of more women.
The Journal said many feminists weren't excited about the idea of women wearing apparel advertising Playboy products, but one KU feminist wasn't as appalled.
expand to include sleep wear, sunglasses or home furnishings.
She hopes to have more celebrities in the magazine, gear the Web site more toward women and introduce a line of women's apparel with the Playboy insignia rabbithead. The apparel would include tank tops and shorts with the insignia and could
"I own an old Playboy tank top from the "70s, and I wear the hell out of it," said Maria Buszek, Omaha, Neb., graduate student and president of the Feminist Union.
She said she thought it was ironic that a young, Hispanic woman like herself, who was not the airbrushed stereotype of a Playboy model, would wear a shirt with the Playboy insignia. But she said she thought all feminists would react differently to the clothing.
"I'm not going to touch that," she said. "There are as many ideas about feminism as there are people."
Buzsek said her urge was to make fun of the Playboy corporation because it was so behind the times with regard to feminism.
But she said a clothing line wouldn't be any more or less harmful than wearing a Dominoes T-shirt from a thrift shop.
Jill Schneebeck, member of the Women's Empowerment Action Coalition, said she wouldn't disagree with individual women who felt comfortable wearing the clothing. But she said she would feel uncomfortable wearing it herself.
"Somehow I think it's weird they're gearing it toward women," Schneeebek said.
Steve Davis, Overland Park junior, said he thought a Playboy clothing line would be cool.
because then women can't say Playboy is a male-oriented company any more," Davis said.

Depending on the results of the survey, students may be asked to vote on a fee increase of anywhere from $20 to $45 per semester. This increase would come in addition to an immediate $15 fee increase, making student rec fees $28 until the center opens, which could be as early as Fall 2001. Then the remaining increase would kick in.
Supporters of the proposal hope the staggered timing takes care of complaints that students would be paying for something they would never use.
Jason Fizell, August 1986 graduate, opposed the 1996 proposal and still questions whether the new proposals are financially feasible.
Yoder's plan calls for a fee increase of between $35 and $60, compared to the 1996 plan's $90, for essentially the same improvements.
"It's bullshit," Fizell said. "They're claiming that they can get more done now with less money, and construction costs have gone up. The numbers just don't add up."
Where Yoder got his numbers
Student body vice president Scott Kaiser said that lower bond rates and finding ways to cut a new center's operations costs made lower costs possible.
Fizell says he fears that students will pass the rec center improvements at one fee, then find out somewhere down the line that more fees would be needed to complete the project.
Yoder started researching plans this summer and swears his numbers are valid.
"I would take the word of the University architect and administration over his," Yoder said. "If someone thinks those numbers are wrong and can prove it, that's fine with me. I want this to be done right."
Yoder admits the fees students will be asked to vote on are based on partial costs. The fee increases in Yoder's proposal are strictly for construction. Fizell's beef centers on the plan's exclusion of site-development costs — parking, landscaping, water hookups, an entryway, lighting and streets. The 1996 proposal included $1.82 million for site development. The present plan has nothing.
An exact student fee for Yoder's plan won't be calculated until the first fee is passed by students. He said that site-development costs would not be more than a few extra fee dollars.
Whatever the extra costs, they would be linked to where the center was built. It would cost more to build on West Campus than it would on an on-campus site.
Thomas Waechter, planning coordinator, said, "It could be a fairly significant number. Site-development costs could be included in the budget, but I suspect there will be additional costs depending on the site."

The most likely spots for a new center are between Robinson and the computer center, south of Watkins Health Center or a West Campus site near the one turned down in 1996. Problems with the West Campus site include its inconvenient distance from campus and higher site-development costs. Also, the property is owned by the Endowment Association and would have to be purchased, another cost not figured into Yoder's plan.
An on-campus site — between Robinson and the computer center or south of Watkins — would be cheaper but would lie within the "10-minute zone," property within easy walking distance of most campus buildings.
Robinson Center was built in 1967 with state funds. State law prohibits using state money to pay for University recreational centers, so Robinson was, and still is, classified as an academic building.
"The south of Watkins one is negotiable," Kaiser said. "But the other one (between Robinson and the computer center) I think is pretty much hands-off."
date makes it the oldest in the Big 12. And it's small—its 94,638 square feet are less than half of the Big 12 average. The building was renovated in 1880, and its current replacement cost is $23 million.
Stephen Hylton, Costa Rica junior, said he had seen several other universities' rec centers and Robinson was the worst.
Chester E. Peters Recreation Complex originally was built in 1980, but many Wildcat gym rats deemed the center outdated within the decade. In a vote similar to what Yoder is working for, K-State students voted to charge themselves $2.8 million for a renovation to Peters Complex. The project was completed in 1995.
Learning from K-State
"It's obvious that we have the worst facilities in the Big 12, but that doesn't make it an issue. It's only an issue if students want it to be."
Before and after classes, Robinson is open for recreation about 54 hours per week, less than half the hours available at seven conference universities. The Big 12 average is 99 hours of open rec time per week.
Kansas State University experienced similar problems just a few years ago.
Robinson is old—its 1967 construction
"K-State's facility makes Robinson look like a joke," said Clark Langermeier. Manhattan junior, a transfer student from K-State. "I think a lot of

KU students don't know what they're missing." Kaiser said, "I think it's sad that we have a worse facility than K-State."
voters favored it fees did not increase.
K-State had three bonds — for the old recreation complex, the football stadium and the union — that were ready to be retired. The 1991 proposal merely continued the fees for the renovation.
But there's a K-State catch. Part of the reason for the whipping support that the K-State renovation received — 81 percent of student
"In our situation," said Raydon Robel, K-State director of recreational services, "the timing just happened to be right. Students were getting a lot for a little."
How KU compares with Big 12
Although student recreation fees at KU would increase considerably with
the passing of Yoder's proposal, the new figure would not be drastically more than students at other Big 12 schools pay.
Robinson may rank last in most recreation center categories, but KU students get what they pay for. The $13 that students put toward recreation each semester is less than 30 percent of the Big 12 average, the lowest in the conference and less than half of the next lowest total.
"It's obvious that we have the worst facilities in the Big 12, but that doesn't make it an issue," Yoder said. "It's only an issue if students want it to be."
no fee increase or improvement
To measure student opinion, Student Senate is distributing a rec survey that has four improvement options, with escalating price tags.
- a $12.5 million addition to Robinson that would call for a $20 to $25 bike in fees
- a new $17.5 million center at a location to be determined that would increase fees by $30 to $35
a new $22.5 million center at a location to be determined that would increase fees by $40 to $45
The fee-increases would go into effect upon completion of the project and would be in addition to the current $13 fee and an immediate $15 increase to cover planning costs.
Surveys to determine support for the various options have been handed out as part of recreation task force presentations at dorms and other organizations this semester. Senators, usually in groups of three, present their argument for recreation improvement in a presentation called "Let's Talk About Recreation."
Some have described the presentations as biased.
"A lot of people have mentioned that to me, that it's more of a sales pitch than a presentation," said Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator. "What they're giving is the where we're the worst and only the worst, and not where we're doing OK in some respects, like pool space."
Marlon Marshall, engineering senator, is on the task force. He has done several of the presentations and has heard similar complaints of bias.
"That's not what we're trying to do," he said. "If we find out that students don't want to do this, then our work is done. We wouldn't try to force anything."
There is one more wrinkle to this plan that a student vote cannot change: Any proposal of this magnitude must get Chancellor Robert Hemenway's signature, and students passing a referendum would not guarantee that.
"If the students voted for it, I would consider it," Hemenway said. "But I would reserve the right to make final judgment. We don't decide to build buildings on the basis of a referendum."

Academic excellence
Football player scores award
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Greg Erb just might be the most successful person on the Kansas football team. Off the field, that is.
Erb, a defensive back for special teams was named to the District VII GTE Academic All-America team Monday for his 3.71 grade point average during the past three years.
But Erb doesn't just submerge himself in his studies, burying himself beneath piles of books and notes. He has a gift many students are not blessed with — he is just plain smart.
Kansas coach Terry Allen recognizes that Erb is not your ordinary student athlete.
"Greg Erb is an outstanding person, an outstanding student," Allen said. "As well as being a very talented athlete, he's a very good student and has dreams of being a very successful person. He's unique in that.
Good grades and academics always have been a high priority for Erb.
"He uses his intelligence when he plays," Allen said. "He has limited athletic ability, but he makes up for that by being a very smart football player."
During high school he received all As and Bs. In fact, he gets upset when he doesn't receive an A in a class.
What might be the most unique aspect about Erb, though, is his insatiable need to challenge himself.
"I've always wanted to be the best at everything, so I set goals to get As basically every semester," Erb said. "It disappoints me when I don't get an A in a class, but I don't limit that to what classes I take."
Like many KU students, Erb decided to take one of his harder classes, organic chemistry, from a different college.
Most KU students go to Johnson
County or Kansas City Community College. Erb went to Harvard.
His uncle and his cousin attended the college and suggested that he take the class the summer after his freshman year.
"I just wanted to challenge myself," Erb said. "It was an accelerated program. It got done quicker, and I wanted to see how I stacked up against the competition."
Not only did Erb learn a lot about organic chemistry but he learned a
lot about what it meant to really study.
"The students there study a lot harder than here," he said. "I went there and asked everybody what they do on the weekends and they said, 'We study.' I thought they were joking, but they were serious."
Erb has taken those study habits and applied them to his classes at the University, where he is working toward a degree in biology with aspirations of attending medical school.
Halftime chat rouses'Hawks to top Quakers
Boschee steps up in final moments
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
While many would expect No.8 Kansas to struggle against a team being led by a guard wearing No.23 named Michael Jordan, not many expected Kansas to struggle against this Michael Jordan.
But in the end, the Pennsylvania Quakers Jordan did not have enough to put away the Jayhawks, as Kansas (2-0) survived the Penn (0-1) attack, 61-56 last night.
In the final minutes of the game, Jordan missed two shots in the lane and
Kansas freshman point guard, Jeff Boschee, scored eight of Kansas' last 10 points, including a free throw that put the Jayhawks ahead 57-56. He expanded the lead to the final 61-56 with a clutch basket and two free throws.
"Jeff did a great job," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "I loved our pulse in the last four minutes.
Boschee: Scored eight of Kansas' last 10 points.
Boschee had a bigger role after Ryan Robertson received his fourth foul with less than five minutes left, with the Jayhawks ahead by seven. Robertson was out for a few minutes, but the Quakers tied the score, 56-56.
The game was a tale of two contrasting halves. In the first half, the Jayhawks hit two of their first 15 shots from the field and had 12 turnovers.
"I told the guys they can't afford to do that," Williams said. "I won't live through the season if they do. It has to be 40 minutes of playing ball."

Frustrated with the Jayhawks trailing 14-13 with six and a half minutes left in the first half, Williams received his first technical foul since November 1996. He argued with the referee about an out-of-bounds call reversed in the Quakers' favor.
Kansas ended the first half trailing 26-19, the fewest points the team has scored in a half since Williams took control.
kansas turned around in the second half and hit 13 of its first 16 shots. Williams said he was pleased with the improvements his team made after the half.
"The first half, we didn't play basketball," Williams said. "The second half was strange because we were 180 degrees away. We were much more aggressive defensively. It was a tale of the first half not playing and the second half playing really well."
Robertson and Eric Chenowith led the Jayhawks with 14 points each.

Purdue ends Lady Vols' No.1 run
Tennessee's first loss in more than a year costs them top spot
All in all, Purdue coach Carolyn Peck hasn't been easy on her former boss the last couple of days.
First Purdue ended Tennessee's 46- game winning streak. Then the Boilermakers ended the Lady Vols' long run at No.1.
The Associated Press
PURDUE
ranking in women's basketball Monday, edging Connecticut by one point for the top spot in The Associated
Purdue gained its first-ever No.1
Press poll. The Boilermakers' momentous move came one day after they beat Tennessee 78-68, the Lady Vols' first loss since March 2, 1997.
"To be quite honest with you, I'm not sure how to react," said Peck, a former assistant to Tennessee coach Pat Summitt. "Obviously, it's a

remain focused on our ultimate team goals." Purdue, fifth in the preseason poll, received 18 first-place votes and had 987 points. Connecticut, which averaged 102 points in beating two ranked teams over the weekend, had 17 first-place votes and 986 points. The Huskies were third in the preseason poll.
Louisiana Tech, which has yet to play, dropped from second to third with five first-place votes and 949 points. Tennessee, which beat Portland in its opener on Friday night, received one first-place vote and compiled 929 points.
Stanford, 19th in the preseason, lost its first two games and dropped out of the Top 25 for the first time since 1887. The Cardinal had appeared in 191 straight polls. Tennessee has the longest streak at 210.
Purdue's highest ranking previously had been No. 2 in the 1994-95 preseason poll. The Boilermakers dropped to fifth in the next poll and finished that season ranked 16th.
Preventing a similar slide this season will take some work. The Boiler
makers have two tough games this week, at Arizona and at Stanford.
Connecticut's two impressive victories at the Four in the Fall tournament in San Jose almost got the Huskies their first No. 1 ranking since the last poll of the 1996-97 season. They opened with a 104-74 victory over then-No. 4 Duke and beat No. 18 Arkansas 100-64.
North Carolina climbed five places to 6th after opening the season with a victory over Kansas. Duke, which rebounded to beat Stanford, dropped to sixth and was followed by Georgia, Virginia, Alabama and Rutgers.
"The recognition is great, but it really doesn't matter where you're ranked in November," Peck said. "What matters is March."
The final five were Iowa State, UC Santa Barbara, Nebraska, Illinois and Wisconsin.
Notre Dame jumped six places to 11th after a 17-point victory over UCLA, which had been sixth. Then it was Texas Tech, George Washington, UCLA and Old Dominion, followed by North Carolina State, Kansas, Arkansas, Vanderbilt and Florida.
Nebraska and Wisconsin were newcomers, replacing Arizona and Stanford. Arizona, which had been 21st, lost to Nebraska after opening with a victory over Wisconsin-Green Bay. Stanford lost to Arkansas before its loss to Duke.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 18).
You have looked forward to this year. Just about everything you want could be yours if you play your cards right. It is not going to come gift-wrapped. Do not hide out in November. In December, the money is plenitiful, butbeware: There will be hidden expenses. In February, you may make changes to your home.
Aries (March 21-April 19) -- Today is a 5.
You might feel like you don't have enough money and never will. Assess your situation, perhaps with the aid of a financial counselor, and you might find there is more money available than you thought. Do not get stuck thinking it is hopeless.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) -- Today is a 7.
Looks like your mate or partner wants to call the shots right now. He or she has things pretty well thought out, so if the plan is to your liking, just relax and enjoy the ride. You want to stand up for your most important interests, but there is no point in squabbling about little stuff.
Gemini (May 21-June 21) - Today is a 5.
We have some very demanding people out there, and you are going to be working overtime keeping up with them. If you are in the communications field, you may be just about at your wits end. Listen instead of talking and you will save yourself a lot of trouble. You may not get people to talk much, but it will still be an improvement.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) -- Today is an 8.
Looks like you are in love, but you have other work that needs to be done. So there could be a bit of a conflict.
The emotional aspect is going along quite nicely, however. You always do better in conditions like these, so even if you have a problem, your chances of finding a workable solution are excellent.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Today is a 4.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) - Today is a 4.
If you are like most Leos, you are focused on public matters most of the time. Right now, however, it is private matters that claim your attention. Spend time with the people you love. There are decisions to be made, issues to be talked out. Best to do that now. Later in the week, it will be more difficult for people to express themselves.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22) -- Today is a 7.
The conditions in effect won't happen again for another year. The sun and moon are in Scorpio, and you are briliant. You are soaking up information, so don't miss this chance to learn something important. If you don't know what that is yet, think. What would you like to know?
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Today is a 5.
You sometimes give more than you should of your own allotment, so other people won't be upset. Well, today that is not likely to be the case, so if you have negotiations to do concerning your career, step up to the plate right now. You will negotiate in your own favor, for a change, and you will do it well.
Scarpie (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) - Today is an 8.
You are strong, powerful and charismatic. People want to do what you tell them to do. One person in particular is willing to do whatever you ask. Be responsible. Don't want to burn this one out by being too demanding.
男女同室
2
C
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) -- Today is a 5.
You are under pressure again today, but the other person can't really ruffle your feathers, since what he has to offer is not anything you want. You are satisfied with what you have and that makes you a hard nut to crack. You don't have to put up with pressure tactics, either. With the help of a good friend, you can make your escape.
LION
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) -- Today is an 8.
Are you tired of your same old environment and want to get out of your ruft? Do you want to buy a boat and cruise around the world? You would probably be good at that. Start learning how to sail. Take a few lessons. You don't need to do the whole thing now to have the exciting part start.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) -- Today is a 4.
There is a lot to be done, and orders to be followed. It will be difficult to push your ideas across, but that is OK.
You are listening and learning instead, and watching for a good opportunity. That could come as soon as tomorrow, so make sure you have all your ducks in a row.
S
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Today is a 7.
Group activities are going to go well today. You might think it is impossible to actually get crowds to do what you want, but that is not the case today. The people you are hanging out with have a lot of energy and a lot of good ideas. Just get them steered in the right direction.

Coach of the year finalists includes K-State's Snyder
HOUSTON — Four unbeaten coaches, including Kansas State's Bill Snyder, are among the six finalists for the Bear Bryant Award hon-
sing college football's coach of the year.
Bob Toledo of UCLA, Phillip Fulmer of Tennessee, Tommy Bowden of Tulane are the other coaches who made the ballot for leading their teams to unbeaten seasons so far
Snyder: Has led Wildcats to 10-0 record this year.
All coaches are 9-0 this season except for Snyder, whose Wildcats are 10-0.
The other coaches vying for the award are Houston Nutt of Arkansas (8-1) and John Cooper of Ohio State (9-1).
About 800 members of the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association are eligible to
vote for the award, which will be presented Dec. 10.
Everyone wondering what Monica Lewinsky sounded like on the tapes secretly recorded by Linda Tripp got some unexpected voices as well — Joe Buck and Tim McCarver.
Baseball announcers on Lewinsky tapes
As TV networks played excerpts of the Lewinsky-Tripp tapes yesterday, McCanver and Buck could be heard in the background calling Game 5 of the 1997 division series between Cleveland and New York, which Tripp apparently had on during a phone call.
"if this isn't the ultimate sign that baseball is back, I don't know what is," McCarran said. "I'm inquiring about residuals."
Buck, who is interrupted at one point by Lewinsky referring to President Clinton as "the big creep," joked that this validates his career in the eyes of his wife.
"The World Series was great, the All-Star game wonderful and NFL on Fox terrific," he said. "But when she heard my voice this morning on the treadmill it was cause for celebration."
At one point in the tapes, McCarver is heard delivering a soliloquy about the strike zone in between bantering from Tripp and Lewinsky about the intern's future in the White House. Buck also can be heard saying, "There's a long fly to left..." although it is not clear if the ball was eventually caught.
"It brings a whole new level to the three-man booth," Buck said. "I think less is more and trying to get in an analyst and basically a spy is tough work for a play-by-play guy. If you heard it, I tried to let it breathe a little so Linda could talk."
"This will be one of the highest-rated playoff games of all time when you consider the crowd that heard it today," he said.
With all the coverage the tapes received, Buck is calling for a recount of the Nielsen ratings to account for the extra audience.
Top soccer association postpones tournament
ZURICH, Switzerland — FIFA postponed the Confederations Cup
SCOOTER
from January until next summer and said yesterday that World Cup champion France had agreed to participate.
The tournament, originally scheduled Jan. 8-20 in Mexico City and Gaudalajara, will be played July 28-Aug. 8. The postponement will cause many U.S. national team players to miss games with their Major League Soccer clubs.
France had said on Oct. 23 it would not participate because of conflicts with club games.
"The rescheduling was agreed because of difficulties involved in the release of players for certain of the eight competing countries," FIFA said in a statement. "The French Football Federation has notified FIFA that, unlike the original January period, it will be able to field a strong team in July/August."
The United States is in Group B with France, World Cup runner-up Brazil and New Zealand, while Bolivia, Egypt, Mexico and Saudi Arabia are in Group A. Germany, the defending European champion, declined to participate.
FIFA also said only female referees will be used at next summer's
Women's World Cup in the United States.
Volleyball teams fined for sloppy uniforms
TOKYO — Volleyball's fashion police is cracking down.
Seven teams, including the United States and defending champion Italy, were fined $3.000 each yesterday for sloppy appearance at the men's world championships.
FIVB, the international ruling organization, said the players' shirts did not fit the body and were too loose.
The five other teams fined were: Argentina, Brazil, Poland, Russia and Turkey. An FIVB official said the teams did not contest the punishment.
The fines will be deducted from each team's prize money. The winning team receives $200,000 from the purse of $1.2 million.

against five women's teams (Russia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Croatia, Italy) for not meeting new uniform standards for international competition.
Of the men's teams fined, five had advanced to the 16-team second round that starts today United States, Italy
Argentina, Brazil and Russia.
Also in the second round are Spain, Japan, Cuba, Bulgaria, Canada, South Korea,

Oklahoma tailback rushes for NFL fame, money
"If I had to put a percentage on it (leaving), it would be about 93 percent," he said yesterday.
NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma tailback De'Mond Parker intends to skip his senior season for the NFL.
Parker is the first Oklahoma player to rush for 1,000 yards in three seasons.
The fourth-year junior has 1,067 yards this season and 3,394 in his career. He stands No. 4 on Oklahoma's career rushing chart, behind Joe Washington (3,995), Steve Owens (3,867) and Billy Sims (3,813).
"I want the best for him and will do all I can to advise him," said coach John Blake, who expected Parker to turn professional.
Parker considered going pro last season, when he gained 1,143 yards despite missing three games and parts of two others with an injured stomach muscle.
He wound up staying in school and hoped to have a big year this season. He has had two 200-yard games, but also has failed to gain more than 30 yards in three other games.
Provided he doesn't sign with an agent, Parker is allowed to contact NFL officials and scouts to get a feel for where he might be drafted. He suggested that if he is projected as a fourth- or fifth-round pick, his decision could be affected.
Blake said Parker's speed and agility make him one of the top backs he has been around.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE Preseason Basketball

Returning starters to fill void left by leading scorer
Nebraska loses star point guard to NBA
By Brandon Krisztal
Kansan sportswriter.
The Nebraska men's basketball team has a big void to fill after losing leading scorer (21.2 points per game) and All-Big 12 first teamer Tyronn Lue to the NBA.
However, the Cornhuskers' coach Danny Nee, now in his 13th season in Lincoln, is returning four of the starters that lost to Arkansas in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The Cornhuskers finished last season with a record of 20-12 and a 10-6 conference mark, fourth in the Big 12.
Nee has accepted the loss of Life
who would have been a senior.
"When I look at Nebraska basketball, the first thing that everyone is asking me is how do you replace Tyronn Lue," he said. "We really miss him, he's a great player. In the three years he was with our program he did so many things, but it was right for him to move on. He's on the Lakers right now. Now it's life without Tyronn."
Nebraska will be anchored by senior center Venson Hamilton, who was second in the Big 12 in rebounding last year with 9.8 boards per game and was second on the team in points per game with 11.2. Hamilton is a preseason All-Big 12 selection and was a member of the Big 12 All-Star team that toured Europe in August.
Hamilton likes Nebraska's chances this year.
"With four returning starters we all should increase our scoring and
that includes me," Hamilton said. "Every team in the Big 12 has a chance at losing this year."
The Cornhuskers also will be look
ing for junior shooting guard Cookie Belcher to increase his scoring. Last season, his 11.1 points per game was third best on the team.

Nee: Dealing with life after former guard Tyronn Lue.
Belcher led the Huskers with 18 points and Hamilton notched 13 points and 11 rebounds.
"With Tyronn gone, we have to look to others to score." Belcher
said. "With time running out on the shot clock, we could always rely on Tyronum, but now I think Venson (Hamilton) and I are ready to be the go-to-guys."
The other two starters are senior forwards Larry Florence and Andy Markowski.
Florence, who was often defended by opponents' toughest perimeter players last year, was fourth on the team with 8.9 points per game.
Markowski was the team's second leading rebounder with 6.6 boards a game. He also earned a spot on the Big 12 All-Academic team for the second time.
Newcomer Joe Holmes is expected to fill the vacancy left by Lue at point guard. Last season at Tyrler (Texas) Junior College, Holmes averaged 10.4 points and 8.1 assists per game.
Nee also is looking for freshman guard Cary Cochran to contribute
Women's basketball ready to rumble
'Huskers' new attitude brings strength to game
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The Nebraska women's basketball team is pictured on the cover of its media guide with the facial expressions of boxers waiting for a fight.
That's the attitude the team is taking into this season with its "Mad Dog Defense."
"When teams are playing us, they better pack a lunch," said junior Naciska Gilmore. "Because it's going to be a long day."
Glimore and the rest of the team adopted this tough style of play last year, coach Paul Sandforder's first at Nebraska. Sandford replaced Angela Beck and guided Nebraska to a tie for third place in the conference, a 23-10 record and a win in the NCAA Tournament.
"I love to play for him, I feel he's heavensent," Glilmore said.
The obvious obstacle for the Cornhuskers this season will be replacing defensive stopper Jami Kubik and All-Big 12 selection Anna DeForge.
Jami Kubik was the player Sanderford often turned to last season to guard the opposition's best player. Her sister, Nicole, may be in that role this year.
"Everyone said we didn't have a point guard last year," Sanderford said. "But Nicole led the league in steals."
In fact, it wasn't even close. Nicole had 104 steals last season, 30 more than the next-best thief. She also led the Cornhuskers in assists with 150 and scored 13.2 points per game, second behind DeForge.
"You could take five Nicole's and play anybody."Sanderford said.
FRED DENMAN
While Nicole may be able to shoulder much of the defensive responsibility left by her sister, replacing DeForey will take a team effo
left her sister, replacing
DeForge will take a team effort.
Sanderford: Team has adopted tough tyle of defense.
"There's six or seven players who could score a lot of points for us," Nicole said. "We have people who have come in and can become the next Anna DeForge."
Those newcomers are 6-0 freshman Candace Blackbird, 6-0 freshman Jennifer Jaracz, 6-5 junior Casey Leonhardt, 5-6 freshman Karsen Muller, 6-4 senior Lisa Reitsma and 6-1 junior Monique Whifield. Muller is out at least two months with an ankle injury.

Reitsma picked up collegiate basketball after
a standout career on the school's volleyball
team. Reitsma earned first-team All-American
honors her sophomore and junior seasons, and second-
team mention last season as a senior
"She's been impressive," Sanderford said.
"She can run the floor."
She came darling newcomer is Whitfield, a first-team junior college All-American last year at Central Arizona Community College. Whitfield helped CACC to a 33-1 record and the NJCAA national title last season.
"An exceptional athlete," Sanderford said. "She's got good quickness and good size."
The 'Huskers are 2-0 this season, with a 96-39 win against South Alabama and a 72-48 win against then-No. 21 Arizona.
Nebraska was picked to finish fifth in the preseason Big 12 coaches' poll. The Cornhuskers play the Jayhawks Jan. 16 in Lincoln and Feb. 13 in Lawrence.

Commentary
Coach's quitting questionable; soccer fields need drain systems
With no hot topic engulfing me this week, there are several issues I would like to bring up.
First, one reader asked me to get into women's coach Dan Magner's resignation. While that is not precisely my territory, here is my take.
Without a doubt, the season was a disappointment. The 'Hawks lost a number of close games, and probably a few games that they should have won. Certainly, only winning one Big 12 match was a disappointment, even if it was against Missouri.
I really don't think he resigned. Why would he? A source close to the program said he hadn't mentioned the possibility to the team or the other coaches. Further, he didn't leave to go to a job that was already set up. It just didn't make sense to quit. I think he was pushed, rather than going willingly.
However, this was Magner's first recruiting class, and he managed to bring in some quality players for the future. Some, like freshman creator Lindsay Kennedy, managed to make an immediate impact. With a roster filled with underclassmen and only losing a few players to graduation, the team has promise for next year.
Further, if you look at the results, you will notice that the team's decline coincides precisely with the loss of SuperTarget Field for a few weeks due to the monsoon season that hit us in early-to-mid October. As the reader who asked me to mention this noted, "How does the Athletic Department expect him to succeed without investing money in the program?" Installation of an adequate drainage system for SuperTarget Field should have come before the firing of Marner.
While we're on the issue of fields in bad conditions, or the lack of fields, can
anyone tell me why we can't have at least one set of goals up permanently?
As much as I enjoy playing with cones and shirts as posts and flags, there are enough recreational soccer players here to warrant a few sets of goals, maybe even with decent fields of some sort.
When the issue has come up before with Recreation Services, usually in the
Sam
Pierron

middle of an argument about our ejection from one field or another, the claim has always been that they need to keep fields as nice as possible for intermurals, and that soccer players will play in any conditions if there are goals up, whereas most people playing football just play touch football wherever there's a little bit of space.
Well, they are right to say that, but that isn't a particularly good reason for not having goals up. The worst damage done to the fields at Shenk Complex this year was not done by any athletes, but by the guy who decided to mow soaked grass with a several-ton tractor, making neat trenches every six yards or so that will stay with the fields for a good long time.
I don't blame Recreation Services director Jason Krone for this, as I know he has a thankless job to begin with, let alone dealing with fields with 15 percent slopes and no drainage. Maybe the University almost cares about these fields now; they finally got rid of the cricket pitch, didn't they?
There is a serious push in some corridors of the University to build a new
athletic center. Perhaps we need to establish some decent standard of outdoor facilities before building a new indoor center.
Finally, Bruce Arena's debut as U.S. National Team coach, which took place last week against Australia in San Jose, didn't give too many clues as to the future of the program
The Aussies sent their under-23 team, without most of their best youth players, who were playing with the European clubs (Leeds United's Harry Kewell, for example).
The Americans, similarly, played a team entirely composed of Major League Soccer players, giving several players their first national team appearance.
Among those players making their first appearance were Chicago defender C.J. Brown and two of his Fire teammates, goalkeeper Zach Thornton and midfielder Chris Armas, who was cleared to play only two days before the game because of a question of eligibility.
The game itself ended in a 0-0 draw on a bad pitch in awful conditions. The Arena used a 3-5-2 instead of his standard 4-4-2, but this had more to do with the lack of a true right back on the roster than any long-term tactical switch, I think. Wizards defender and Olathe East graduate Scott Vermillion will surely get a call-up in the next few games to try out at this spot.
Hardly an auspicious debut, but Arena is in this for the long haul. The next World Cup is four years away, and he will need all four years to select and mold a team.

Southwest Missouri to move past losses
SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — For almost any basketball team, it should have been a great year.
The Associated Press
Southwest Missouri State's Lady Bears reeled off a dozen straight wins to open the 1997-98 season. They went on to post a 24-6 record, finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference at 14-4 and win the team's seventh invitation in the last eight years to the NCAA Division I championship tournament.
What's more, the Lady Bears' loyal fans, the ones who filled Southwest Missouri's 8,846-seat Hammons Student Center to capacity almost every home game, quickly found a new superstar in Jackie Stiles.
The freshman from Glaiflin High School, who had set her state's all-time peak scoring
record for both boys and girls, took up in Springfield where she had left off in Claflin, averaging more than 20 points a game. By season's end, she had been named to two freshman All-America teams, made the Missouri Valley Conference's
Still, Stiles said she got sick to her stomach every time she thought of last season. The Lady Bears first-round loss to Notre Dame at the NCAA tournament, after losing the Missouri Valley Conference title to Drake in the championship game, wasn't how the 19-year-old expected things to end.
first team, was voted its top freshman and had won its player of the week award a record-setting three times.
"That was very devastating," she said of the season-ending losses. "We never, ever want to let that happen again."
That's how Stiles sees it, too. Then, after
that, she sees a serious run for an NCAA title.
With that goal in mind, the Lady Bears began non-conference play by beating Davidson 120-65 in the opening round of the Women's National Invitation Tournament, a game in which Stiles tied the team record with 41 points. The Lady Bears and Stiles both stumbled two nights later, however, losing a second-round game to Indiana 63-60 after Stiles, who scored 18, missed a free throw that would have tied the game with two seconds left.
"We never, ever want to let that happen again."
The Lady Bears are favored by coaches and sportswriters to win the conference for the first time since Drake ended the SMS seven-year title run in 1966-97.
The key to the Lady Bears' expectations this year is Stiles, who Burnett says is twice the player she was last year, a pronouncement that makes her soft-spoken superstar stammer in embarrassment.
Burnett said that wouldn't mean that Stiles will average 40 points a game this year if he
Jackie Stiles SW Missouri State player
teammates simply gave her the ball all the time.
But the 5-foot-6 presence of Stiles will be felt, Burnett says, in the way she has improved as a playmaker, passer and defensive player.
What's more, she has a veteran team backing her up, with four starters returning from last year. And Burnett has answered critics, who said last year's Lady Bears were too short to win a title, by recruiting 6-5 Dzena Kadic and 6-3 Ann Cavey, both freshman centers.
The biggest of last year's starters, 6-foot senior Rohonda Reed, is also back.
But clearly the expectations of stardom fall heaviest on the modest sophomore from Kansas who is being touted around the SMS campus as a likely All-American.
The number one shooter on our team is certainly jackie Stiles, Burnett said. "And she'll end up being the best passer in the country and the best defensive player before she's through."

Thomas regretful; Simmons stays silent
Chiefs' behavior rebuked
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY — Pro Bowl defensive end Derrick Thomas was suspended yesterday for one game and linebacker Wayne Simmons was waived, one day after Kansas City Chiefs' owner Lamar Hunt said their actions disgraced the organization as well as the community.
Thomas, Simmons and defensive end Chester McGlockton drew a total of five personal-foul penalties in a shocking breakdown of self-control Monday night during the final minutes of Denver's 30-7 victory.
Thomas, who has been to the Pro Bowl each of his nine seasons, was flagged once for hitting quarterback Bubby Brister in the head when he was on the ground and twice for pulling and twisting Denver tight end Shannon Sharpe's face mask.
The fouts all came in Denver's final touchdown drive and left fans and coaches alike fuming.
Hair Experts Design Team
Coach Marty Schottenheimer met with reporters earlier yesterday and promised it will not be tolerated.
Simmons refused to speak with reporters when he left Schottenheimer's office yesterday. But Thomas held a news conference in which he accepted his punishment and apologized to practically everyone, including his mother, grandmother, teammates, coaches, Sharpe and the youth of America.
Although he signed a five-year, $27 million contract extension before last season, Thomas' role this year has been reduced to pass-rushing duties because he is so ineffective against the run.
"I jeopardized our ability to win a football game," Thomas said. "I sincerely apologize and say to them my actions of last evening will never occur again."
"I have to take this week and evaluate Derrick Thomas and come back and be the best that I can be for my team and for my teammates."
Many wondered why Thomas was not ejected after his second face mask infraction in a matter of minutes against Sharpe. Schottenheimer admitted he should have pulled Thomas off the field.
MUSIER KHARISAN
"To Shannon, whom I've known for a long, long time, and we've had our ins and outs and run-ins, I apologize to him because those type of actions shouldn't occur in a football game," Thomas said. "To the youth of America that look up to Derrick Thomas, I apologize to you because that is not sportsmanlike conduct, and you should not conduct yourself that way on the field."
Thomas: Suspended for one game by Schattenheimer.
rebuked CHIEFS
Thomas said several things led up to the breakdown in discipline, including some that go back several years in the twice-a-year battles between the two AFC West rivals.
The bizarre incident was just the latest in a series of backsets for the Chiefs (4-6), who have lost five in a row for the first time since 1988 and fallen out of playoff contention in a season where they were expected to contend for the Super Bowl.
"I've looked at the video and I say once again, I'm embarrassed, humiliated. I'm angry," Schottenheimer said. "I'm really disappointed that at the end of the football game some individuals decided what's best for this football team isn't important to them — that their own personal agenda is what they're interested in."
Thomas' suspension means he cannot take part in practices or meetings and will miss the Chiefs' game Sunday in San Diego. Simmons, who signed a three-year contract last year, had not been playing well and probably would have been waived at the end of the year anyway.
The league could still hand out punishment of its own on Thomas, who said the Chiefs' decision was fair.
Missouri hopes to knock off K-State
Tigers hungry for upset to avenge last year's loss
Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Once a giant killer,
Larry Smith believes, always a giant
killer.
Five years ago, Smith came to Missouri with a reputation as a program builder also capable of the occasional huge upset. Entering the regular.
Entering the regular-season finale Saturday against No. 2 Kansas State, he has 12 career victories against Top 10 opponents.
In 1981, his Arizona team beat No.1 USC 13-
M
10. Arizona also beat No. 2 UCLA in 1980 and No. 3 SMU in 1985. At Southern California, he beat a pair of No. 3 teams, Oklahoma in 1988 and Michigan in 1989.
Ancient history? Maybe. With Missouri, Smith is 0-12 against Top 10 teams with an average score of 36-12. The Tigers carry a 34-game losing streak that dates to 1981
against the Top 10.
None of which scares anybody.
"I think they're the best team in the country, and I've seen them all," defensive coordinator Moe Ankney said. "But we are the best team they've played. We're better than Nebraska and Texas and all the other teams they've played."
Saddled with one of the toughest schedules in the nation. Missouri (7-3, 5-2 Big 12) has distinguished itself in losing causes. The Tigers led then-No. 1 Ohio State at halftime on the road before falling 35-14, and also led at the break at No. 7 Nebraska before faltering.
With more effective special teams, Missouri could be in the top 10. On Saturday, a missed 26-yard field goal and two poor plays by punt returner Randy Potter, who allowed one ball to roll past him to the 2-yard-line and then fumbled to set up the winning score for Texas A&M, were the difference in a 17-14 loss to the No. 6-ranked Aggies.
Smith has no specific formula for knocking off the big boys, except not to get too excited.
"When you play the really, really big games, the No. 1 thing you focus on is not
the hype," Smith said. "The hype is there, and I don't have to build it up and do all these special things."
A 41-11 loss last year to then-No. 22 Kansas State (10-0, 7-0 Big 12) is almost as big a motivating factor as the Wildcats lofty ranking this year. Tailback Devin
West accused the Wildcats of running up the score.
"Both teams have developed a hatred for each other," West said. "They would have gone for more touchdowns if they could, that's the type of team they are."

Braves pitcher wins Cy Young after close ballot
The Associated Press
NEW YORK - Tom Glavine edged reliever Trevor Hoffman to win his second NL Cy Young Award yesterday, the sixth time in eight years an Atlanta Braves pitcher has earned the honor
The 32-year-old left-hander became the first Cy Young winner not to receive the most firstplace votes.
In the closest balloting for the award in 11 years. Hoffman received the most first-place votes but fell 11 points short of Glavine, who appeared on three more ballots.
Glavine received 11 first-place votes, 13 seconds, five thirds and was left off three ballots
Braves
Glavine, who also won the award in 1991, led the league with 20 wins and was tied for third with a 2.47 ERA. Hoffman had perhaps the most dominating season ever out of the bullpen, saving 53 games in 54 chances.
The 32 voters from the Baseball Writers' Association of America list the top three pitchers on their ballots.
The last time the NL Cy Young vote was this close was 1987, when Steve Bedrosian beat Rick Sutcliffe by two votes and Rick Reuschel by three.
The last time any BBWAA award winner failed to receive the most first-place votes was in 1995 when Seattle Lou Piniella beat Boston's Kevin Kennedy for AL Manager of the Year. It has happened three times in MVP voting.
Another Padres pitcher, Kevin Brown, was third with eight firsts, eight seconds, 12 thirds for 76 points. Glavine's teammates, John Smoltz and Greg Maddux, tied for fourth with 10 points each.
For much of the season Glavine wasn't even the best pitcher on his staff.
best player had all but wrapped up the award at the All-Star break with a 12-2 record and 1.54 atra. But he struggled down the stretch, going 6-7 with an un-Madduxlike 3.18 ERA. He finished 18-9 with a league-leading 2.22 ERA, but couldn't join Roger Clemens as the only five-time Cy Young winners. Clemens won his fifth Monday.
Glavine's win returns the award to Atlanta. Montreal's Pedro Martinez won last year, and Maddux won in 1992 for the Cubs, the year before he signed with the Braves.
Smoltz, the 1996 winner, finished 17-3 with a 2.90 ERA in a season in which he was twice on the disabled list with an inflamed elbow.
Hoffman allowed less than a baserunner per inning and struck out more than one batter per inning. He went 4-2 with a 1.48 ERA. Only four NL relievers have won the award, none since Mark Davis with San Diego in 1989.

Survey reveals desire for a new rec center
Task force waiting for phone results; stop sign proposed
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
Student Senate's Recreation Task Force presented student-group survey results to Senate last night, and the numbers were overwhelmingly in favor of taking action to improve the recreation facilities at University of Kansas.
The response to the survey question "Do you feel that new or improved recreational
From Oct. 13 to Nov. 11, the task force visited 23 different student groups and distributed surveys.
sports facilities should be a priority for the University of Kansas?" was very one-sided. Three hundred nine students answered "Yes", while 32 answered "No." Forty-three students said they had no opinion.
Allison McCallie, Nunemaker senator and task-force member, said the results of a phone survey of 468 students were still not available, but would be soon.
"We'll put more weight into the phone survey when we get the results back," she said.
"It was more scientific, and it had more of a random sample, which will provide for less of a margin of error."
McCallie said the recreation task force's job was finished with the presentation of
the data.
"We have something to present to Senate and to the Cancellor," she said. "It was worthwhile because the consensus of students said that something needs to be done."
Now, a committee of students and administrators will be formed. They will take the survey results and try to create a proposal sensitive to the needs and wants of the students.
Robert Futrell, graduate senator, said he still was not sure what type of improvements he wanted to see.
"It's obvious that we need to renovate to some extent," he said. "I'm not sure the costs include site development. If we built on West Campus, I think we'd see a different amount of money we'd have to pay."

Ron McDermid is a prisoner in his mother's home. His jailer comes in the form of epileptic seizures that strike without warning.
Although his seizures last only a minute, his mother must be nearby at all times. McDermid does not even know he has had a seizure until his mother tells him or he awakens in a

when brain waves cross a line into seizure mode.
He can't drive. He can't work. He has 17 seizures a month, on average. "I don't have any social life because of the seizures," the 38-year-old man said. "Some people shy away from me because my seizures are loud." A University of Kansas Medical Center researcher and his colleagues are perfecting a way to warn epileptics like McDermid of impending seizures. Ivan Osorio, director of the Med Center's Comprehensive Epilepsy Center and Mark Frei, Alumnus and mathematician, began testing a 6-inch
device last week that predicts seizures before they take hold. In about two years, the warning device will be miniaturized to the size of a pager and ready to test on people with epilepsy, the researchers said.
A formula encrypted in the prototype device detects impending seizures. The formula, called a mathematical algorithm, can tell
Predicting the Unpredictable
This revolutionary algorithm, developed by the researchers, predicts seizures an average of 16 seconds and up to three minutes in advance. It may not sound like much, but the lead-time can make a world of difference to a person with epilepsy.
"With enough warning, I could get to a safe place if I were in the middle of an activity." McDermid said. "A
warning device would give me the freedom to come and go without being stuck like I am right now."
Osorio, a physician, is motivated by the hold this neurological disorder has on the 2.5 million to 5 million people that it affects in the United States.
"It renders people helpless. It's tragic," he said, "Think of being fine most of the time but never knowing when a seizure will strike. You're struck, and afterward you don't know what's happened to you."
rithm is a breakthrough in the world of epilepsy research.
Osorio and Frei's predictive algo
"The existing methods to detect seizures use rudimentary mathematics, which don't work well to uncover what's going on in the brain," Frei said. "There has never been this level of accuracy. The best algorithm averaged multiple false detections every hour. Our algorithm has had no false detections and no missed seizures."

Court halts construction of trafficway

A federal court has ordered construction to cease on the South Lawrence Trafficway.

eral Highway Administration was involved with reviewing project contracts.
But the state and county chose to discontinue federal involvement in 1997 when they realized that they would have to comply with federal laws, namely the National Environmental Policy Act, Plenk said. This act requires an environmental impact statement and a noise study to be performed.
The court of appeals ruled that the trafficway still would be considered a federal project and that federal laws would apply.

Smokeout discourages lighting up
Today, the American Cancer Society is asking people who smoke to quit for the day in honor of its Great American Smoke-out today.
With an increase in smoking among college-age students, having a plan to quit for more than just a day and following through with it is critical to succeeding, said Bob Pisciotta, chair of the Great American Smokeout and associate director of operations for the University of Kansas Medical Center's Dykes Library.
Although health professionals typically have focused on educating children and older people about the hazards of smoking. 28 percent of college students smoked last year, up from 22 percent in 1993, according to a study by Henry Wechsler of the Harvard School of Public Health.
The majority of students developed the habit of smoking before they reached college. Of Kansas high school seniors, 33 percent started smoking at age 18 or younger, according to a 1996 survey by the Kansas Department of Health and Environment.
Huy Doy, Dodge City senior, is one of those students. He started smoking at 18.
"I hung around a lot of people who smoked," he said. "In college, it became a social thing to go to a party and smoke. After awhile, it became a habitual thing."
It helps to have a plan to quit, which is why the American Cancer Society and its corporate sponsor SmithKline Beecham created the "Commit to Quit" program. The program has three phases: deciding to quit, which asks smokers to state why they want to quit; preparing to quit, which means choosing a method such as cold turkey; and following through, which includes having a support program in place.
Pisiotta said the goal of the Great American Smokeout was to provide information about the dangers of smoking and about the benefits of quitting for those who truly are interested in kicking the habit.
"Smokers trying to quit need to look for people interested in seeing them get over the hump," Pisciotta said. "In preparing to quit, people should select a quit date and then build toward that day."
Do plans to quit on his birthday, Jan. 1.
"Setting a time frame for quitting and then thinking about it is the only way it will work," he said. "I plan to smoke all I want the day before my birthday and then quit."
Doug Frost, Topeka sophomore, quit smoking for two years but started again because it was a familiar habit. He plans to kick the habit, but not today.
"I plan on quitting a year before my wife and I have a child because I know it's bad for my health," he said.
According to the American Cancer Society, smoking accounts for 29 percent of all cancer deaths, and about half of all continuing smokers die prematurely from smoking.
The organization also attributes smoking as the cause of 87 percent of lung cancers. Tobacco use is responsible for nearly one in five deaths in the United States, according to the society. The annual American death toll from tobacco is estimated at 419,000.

Merchandise profits missing from KU game
More than $10,000 in cash, checks and credit card vouchers have been stolen from the Kansas Union bookstore
Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said the money, $10,308.60, came from merchandise sales at the Kansas-Oklahoma State football game Sept. 5.
An employee responsible for the money and receipts could not account for them, Officer Anthony Augusto said.
According to a police report, the theft occurred between 11 a.m. Sept. 7 and 8 a.m. Nov. 13.
At this point, he said, it is unclear whether money from sales at any other games are missing.
Augusto said KU detectives still were investigating the missing money.
The employee who was questioned no longer works at the University, Augusto said.

Police arrest suspect in alleged drug deal
After a three week investigation, local law enforcement officers arrested an 18-year-old Lawrence man Tuesday night on drug charges.
The Tri-county Drug Enforcement Unit raided the man's house in the 2000 block of Heatherwood Drive and seized one-quarter pound of marijuana and about three grams of crystal methamphetamine.
Douglas County Undersheriff Kenny Massey said that the drug unit also had bought 3.5 grams of methamphetamine on three separate occasions
from the man.
He said that purchases of 3.5 grams, also known as eight balls, were common.
In total, the drug unit — with assistance from the Lawrence Police Department — seized between $1,300 and $1,500 in drugs.
Police also found drug paraphernalia for both consumption and distribution in the house.
Police said they suspected the man of dealing much of the meth sold in Eudora and Lawrence.
The man is being held in the Douglas County Jail on three counts of the sale of crystal methamphetamine, possession of marijuana with intent to sell, possession of crystal methamphetamine with intent to sell, felony possession of drug paraphernalia, misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia and four counts of no tax stamp, jail officials reported.
Olathe man suspected of writing bad checks
Lawrence police arrested an Olathe man Tuesday who was suspected of writing more than $50,000 in checks on a Kansas City-area business' account.
The first check, written on the account of a branch of H&R Block, turned up in late September.
Because checks are still coming in, police have not released the number of checks written or the exact amount stolen from the business through the forgeries.
"We contacted him through his attorney," said Lawrence police officer Matt Sarna. "He came in. We interviewed him and arrested him."
He was placed in the Douglas County Jail on nine counts of making a false writing, 2 counts of conspiracy to make a false writing and possession of stolen property, jail officials reported.

Friday is the deadline for states to accept or reject a deal worked out with four major tobacco companies last weekend.

AOL, Netscape could join forces, newspaper says
NEW YORK — America Online inc., the world's largest online provider, is considering new partnerships with Netscape Communications Corp., The Wall Street Journal reported yesterday
Under discussion is everything from stronger co-marketing agreements to loading Netscape's Internet browser onto AOL's online service alongside or in place of Microsoft Corp. software, the newspaper said, citing people familiar with the situation.
A new pact between the companies could influence the online industry and the browser war between Microsoft and Netscape. That conflict is at the heart of the government's ongoing antitrust suit against Microsoft.
AOL's Internet browser deal allows it to end its exclusive arrangement with Microsoft on Jan. 1.

Mexico volcano eruption anticipated within days
MEXICO CITY—Hundreds of people were evacuated yesterday from villages near Mexico's most explosive volcano, following experts' warnings an eruption was likely within days.
Volcanologists have recorded thousands of small tremors at the 12,700-foot Volcan del Fuego — Spanish for Volcano of Fire — and have detected chemical changes in waters near the mountain, 280 miles west of Mexico City. A plume of smoke rose from the volcano yesterday.
About 300,000 people live within 25 miles of the volcano's peak, and Colima city, the capital of Colima state, is within 20 miles of the peak.
Volcanologists say the volcano is one of the most active and most dangerous in North America.

Environmental studies ordered for trafficway
Continued from page 1A
John Pasley, South Lawrence Trafficway project manager, said that he was disappointed in the court decision
Craig Weinaugh, county administrator, said that no tentative plans had been made yet to determine what action the county would take. He also was surreised by the outcome.
"We thought we had a good case," he said. Pasley said he would be meeting with the Kansas Department of Transportation and the Kansas Highway Department to discuss whether they still planed to complete the environmental impact statement and the noise study.
"Obviously we are disappointed by the decision," Weinaug said. "We feel like the community needs the trafficway."
He said the next step for the county would be to meet with the department of transportation, the Army Corps of Engineers and the Federal Highway Administration to perform the supplementary environmental impact statement.
This would require the four agencies to develop alternative routes for the trafficway. They would then have to explain what environmental and cultural impacts the trafficway might have on those routes, Plenk said.
After considering these ideas, the agencies would have to choose the route with the least impacts and have it approved by the district court.
Thomasine Ross, one of the plaintiffs in the case, said she was very happy with the court's decision.
"I was so excited," she said. "When we found out the decision, we kind of expected it."
The western leg of the trafficway was completed in 1994.

Tuition rises; grants dwindle
Study: Students will have fewer college choices
By Melody Ard Kansan staff writer
This year's University of Kansas Pell Grant recipients had about one-third of the cost of their education paid for — about the same as the national average.
The maximum Pell Grant this year was $3,000, which pays 33 percent of the average $8,918 University tuition. The maximum Pell Grant paid an average 34 percent of the cost of education at public universities nationally.
Brenda Maigaard, associate director of the office of financial
aid, said the Pell Grants came from an aid project that made money available for the neediest students. The eligibility and amount awarded is determined by the Federal Application for Student Financial Aid.
"The Pell Grant is one of the best to get because it is a gift grant and you don't have to pay it back," Maigaard said.
Money given to students by the Pell Grant has been dwindling nationally. A study done by The Education Resources Institute, a Boston-based nonprofit guardian of privately issued student loans, showed costs of education were rising much faster than the amount of the grants.
In the 1976-77 academic year, the maximum Pell Grant covered 72 percent of a public and 35 percent of a private education.
Since the grants are given to
students who would be least able to pay for a college education on their own, the decreasing coverage is a blow to students looking for an education at the college of their choice.
"What we like to think is we have a system where people have both access and choice, but what we are rapidly developing is a system where people have access but not choice," said Thomas Parker, senior vice president of the institute.
Over time, the Pell Grant award has declined by 23 percent — adjusting for inflation — during two decades, but college prices rose by 49 percent, and family incomes crept up by just 10 percent during the same period.
About 3.6 million of the nation's 14 million college students receive Pell grants, and more than half of Pell Grant recipients
in four-year schools qualify for the maximum amount of funding.
the maximum amount of funding. Maigaard said students who had financial problems because of the shrinking effectiveness of their Pell Grants were often eligible for other financial aid programs including Federal Work Study and the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant.
Finding extra money anywhere can be difficult, and Maigaird said the quickest students often benefited the most.
"Students who are eligible for the Pell Grant are also eligible for the Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, but not all of the students will get that because the money runs out," she said. "We encourage them to apply by the priority date of March 1 to increase their chances."

More KU freshmen sticking around
By Jason Pearce
Kansan staff writer
The Kansas Board of Regents reported that fewer freshman are dropping out of the University of Kansas than in previous years, and faculty attribute the success to several programs.
The report stated that 22 percent of the 1996 freshman class left the University, compared with 25 percent of the 1993 class who did so.
Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, gave numerous reasons for the decline, including a successful Oread Scholars program, more orientation seminar classes, a freshman check-up program, writing tutor programs and an increase in the American College Test (ACT) scores for incoming freshman.
"Many offices are trying to improve the retention rates of incoming students," Hutton said. "It is important that students who have the ability to succeed, do succeed."
Kim Wilcox, interim director of
academic affairs for the Regents said that high schools across the state also helped in the decline because of the availability of new precollege courses —implemented to prepare students for new college admission standards beginning in 2001.
The information, which does not include the 1997-1998 school year, will be presented today at the Regents' monthly meeting in Liberal.
"There is a concerted effort to reduce the attrition rate," Wilcox said.

Kathryn Nemeth Tuttle, director of the freshman/sophomore advising center, said that the center had met with more than 3,000 students for individual advising this year.
"We talk with them about problems with school and career options," Tuttle said. "It can make a difference by helping students to stay on the right track."
The office, which began serving students last spring, could have an even larger impact on future dropout rates, Tuttle said.
The lines show the percentage of drop-outs per year at each Kansas Board of Regents university. Only Pittsburg State and Emporia State have experienced an increase in drop-out rates since 1993, although both their rates decreased in 1996.
"Students feel like this is a place they can go to get some answers and advice." Tuttle said.
Tuttle also said that the Mount Oread Scholars Program, which assists high-ability students who are not in the honors program, had a retention rate of 96 percent.
Kristin Adkinson, assistant director for the Office of New
Student Orientation, is in charge of a freshman calling program in which staff members attempt to contact every freshman during their first semester at the University.

Adkinson said the staff members asked the students — this semester between the fifth and seventh week of classes — if they had any questions or problems with classes or roommates. This was the third year for the program.
"We try to explore some solutions for them," Adkinson said. "A lot of times they are going great, and it reinforces the idea
that most freshmen succeed here."
This year the office set up a Jaytalk line, which is a telephone answering service where students can request someone to call back and talk about specific problems.
Many academic units had made commitments to help with retention over the last few years, Adkinson said.
"Everyone in the University has made a commitment to helping students succeed, and it is starting to pay off."

Professor Dailey's workshop to help committed couples sustain relationships

Till death do us part — or until we get a divorce.
Oread Ave. Dalley said the
Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare and instructor of the popular Human Sexuality and Everyday Life course, will lead a workshop tomorrow and Saturday for committed couples in the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Broad Ave. Dalley said the

Dailey: Will help couples work on emotional intimacy
"One of my motivations is the
statistic that half of marriages go in the toilet," Dailey said.
ECM (Presbyterian, United Church of Christ, Church of the Brethren) is a co-sponsor of the workshop. ECM also sponsors a non-credit 10-week class during the spring that Dalley teaches based on the information he teaches in his human sexuality course. Dalley said that normally 80 to 100 people are in that class.
Thad Holcombe, pastor for ECM at the University, said the workshop was important because intimacy between couples was crucial for people in discovering who they are as individuals. He said to be intimate with and known by another person was a liberating experience.
"The really important aspect of this is we feel we need to offer a place where people need to

Dailey has given many similar workshops throughout his career, but this will be the first held at the University, and most of the participants will be KU students. The workshop is filled to capacity with 25 couples.
Most of the couples are heterosexual, but a few are gay and lesbian relationships, Dailey said. Some of them are married, some live together and some are simply committed to each other.
The workshop will be very interactive. Dailey said he would lecture a little, but there also would be group activities and exercises between couples, such as dialogues. The results will be shared with the group.
"One of the interesting things about this workshop is that for many, the workshop will deepen and challenge what they have," Dalley said.
Friday evening when the group leaves, it will have homework. Couples must have dialogue before they go to sleep. Dailey said some of the dialogues would involve topics that all committed couples should discuss but many have not.
"It's tricky stuff." he said.
Some of the couples may discover that they were not meant to be together during the course of the workshop, he said.
"I would rather they find that out now rather than seven years into marriage with two kids," Dalley said.

Smokers should put packs down during Great American Smokeout
Today marks the American Cancer Society's 22nd annual Great American Smokeout, an event that encourages smokers to quit just for one day. In recognition of this day, smokers should consider making a small yet important sacrifice, leaving behind those cigarettes.
Tobacco smoke is dangerous, both to the smoker and to those who can't help inhale secondhand smoke. Each year, about 120,000 people die of cardiovascular diseases related to smoking.
Moreover, almost 200,000 die of cancer attributed to tobacco smoke; the types of cancer involved are most commonly of the lungs, larynx, mouth and
According to the American Cancer Society,400,000 people die each year from smoking.
esophagus. According to the American Cancer Society, 400,000 people die each year from tobacco-related diseases; that number is greater than the number of deaths each year from AIDS, alcohol, heroin, murder, suicide and automobile collisions combined.
Although most smokers start before reaching 18, it is imperative that students at the University of Kansas not make smoking a habit. KU students
who do smoke should be aware of the risks they are taking; for example, they're more than 22 times as likely to develop lung cancer.
For those who aren't ready to quit or just don't want to, quitting for just one day can be good. Being able to go an entire day without a cigarette, despite the cravings, reveals a lot about one's will power.
Because the benefits of smoking are few, quitting for any amount of time aids in setting a needed example to the youth of America, who represent the most rapidly growing group of smokers.
Leave those cigarettes alone today.
If you do, you'll be better off.
Chris Borniger for the editorial board
Smoke-free Policy needed in city
Returning home with smoky clothes and sore throats is a regular part of an evening for non-smoking students when they go out in Lawrence. Because there are no regulation on smoking in public places, all who patronize coffee shops or bars inevitably return smelling as if stale cigarette butts and feeling like they have just smoked a carton. No nonsmoker should have to endure secondhand smoke just because he or she chooses to go out for coffee or drinks. Lawrence and the University of Kansas should implement the Smoke-free Policy.
Compared to Boulder Colo., students in Lawrence can smoke wherever they please.
In places where the Smoke-free Policy is instaled, such as Boulder, or the University of California at Berkeley, public places are off-limits to tobacco products. Because of the health hazards involved with tobacco smoke, the Smoke-free Policy in both Berkeley
Lawrence should have restrictions that would protect people from secondhand smoke.
and Boulder states that smoking is not allowed in any public place other than in the areas designated.
While smoke-free facilities are a blessing to non-smokers, prohibiting tobacco products may be more detrimental to business than helpful. Melissa Davis, Wichita junior and waitress at the Yacht Club, said that some of the bars revenue comes from the cigarette machine inside the building.
The Boulder code states that there are ways for restaurants and taverns to allow smoking without harming the non-smokers.
She said, however, that the smoke irritated her eyes and throat.
closed smoking room with a ventilation system independent from that of the main building.
The Surgeon General of the United States has determined that smoking is the leading preventable cause of premature death and disability in the nation.
Businesses must have a separate,
Unfortunately, most smokers do not consider the significant effect on the health of non-smokers. According to a 1992 Environmental Protection Agency study, secondhand smoke causes coughing, phlegm production, chest discomfort and reduced lung function in bystanders.
Students should not have to sacrifice the functional capacity of their lungs to go out on a Saturday night.
Until Lawrence is smoke-free, smokers should recognize who they hurt when they light up, and non-smokers should write to city officials urging them to examine the possibilities of a smoke-free city

PETER HELSEN
New! - my political
described as bleeding-
heart, commite-pinko libe-
ral. But there was someth-
ing about the man one
had to appreciate.
Perhaps it was the way Newt had no fear of appearing goofy, despite the situation.
There was the book he wrote in 1996 titled 1945, a paperback describing what would happen if the Germans had gained an upper hand in World War II, complete with sex scenes and breathless descriptions of Nazi weaponry.
There were the hints he made in 1996 that the federal government shutdown was because of him getting a poor seat on Air Force One.
Maybe the best example is the way he predicted to fellow Republicans that the party would gain 20 to 30 house seats Nov. 3 — because of the Monica Lewinsky scandal. At the last moment before the election, Newt authorized TV ads harping on President Clinton's zipper problem. He was poised to lead the House into another two years.
And then it all crumbled.
Voters decided that one man's sexual dysfunction didn't taint every member of his political party. Republicans lost five seats in the House — virtually unprecedented for a midterm election.
Absolutely not. But politics is seldom fair, and Newt set himself up as a target. He was the leader of the "Republican Revolution." If that revolution bit the dust — as it did — he had to be the scapegoat.
Democrats who rejoice in Newt's hurried exit should reconsider. The next Speaker of the House might not be such a convenient punching bag. Republicans endorsed someone warm and cuddly in Louisiana Republican Bob Livingston. The front-runner in the selection, Livingston is widely considered a lowkev and effective legislator.
Newt was proved wrong. After mulling it over for a few days, he decided to step down as speaker and resign his seat this January.
The Georgian's departure really wasn't just about this one failure in judgment or his other goofy episodes. He couldn't unite the differing factions of the Republican Party. He couldn't make his own party work together in the House. Conservative Republicans saw him as too moderate. Moderate Republics saw him as too conservative and nasty.
The GOP was waiting for the opportunity to oust new Newt. They finally found it.
The public didn't like him. Democrats successfully used him as a symbol the same way Republicans unsuccessfully tried to use Clinton. Newt Gingrich was the symbol of everything wrong with his party.
I'll miss him, not only because of his willingness to act strangely but also because he played the perfect villain. Democrats realized that and used it to their advantage in nearly every election since the speaker was elected to his post in 1995. It was "evil Newt" who represented the Republicans; he shut down the government, wanted homeless children shipped off to orphanages and visited his cancer-ridden first wife in the hospital to discuss the terms of their divorce.
If the Republicans get their act together in the house — and Livingston looks like the man to get it done — the Democrats might have more to worry about than their president's missteps. They might face a serious challenge in legislative elections in 2000.
Was this fair?
Farewell, Newt. The man might not have commanded a successful revolution, but he tried. He never managed to change his image to a soft, lovable teddy bear, but he took his place on the national and world stage and spoke his mind. I may not have agreed with one word he said, but he worked for what he believed.
A man could do worse things.

Glenn is the 'hero' NASA America have needed
W when I was in the first grade, a favorite topic for discussion among my young friends and I was what we wanted to be when we "grew up." Two common responses
are president and astronaut. Being the president, thanks to its emotionally adolescent officeholder, probably would not be such a popular choice with today's children. But being an astronaut is experiencing something of a revival in part because of the mission of a political ally of the president's.

orbit, reprised his astronaut role at the age of 77. NASA's stated goal was to conduct research on aging and weightlessness in space. The real mission—and it was accomplished—was to give the agency a public relations boost and renew interest in the space program. Unfortunately, this is the public relations equivalent of putting a tiny Band-Aid on a gaping wound.
Two missions are useful in explaining the reasons behind NASA's decline. The first was NASA's two-year presence on the Russian space station Mir. Virtually everything that could go wrong aboard the station did go wrong, such as: inadequate training manuals, defective oxygen masks, ceaseless repair work, toxic leaks and poor communication links. A February 1997 fire raged for 14 minutes and almost forced an emergency evacuation (part of the problem could have been the bolted-down fire extinguishers).
The director of the shuttle-Mir program, evidently schooled by the White House at the art of spin, said that one of the main achievements had been to give NASA the ability to work on problems together with the Russians. The second mission flew 96 baby rats into space for experiments. Your reaction — who cares? — is
exactly the point. NASA spends millions on boring, scientific experiments whose benefits are distant, unclear and perhaps minuscule. The space program used to be a place to find heroes not brainy veterinarians. People don't throw ticker-tape parades for scientists. The thirst for heroes within the program is so acute that the shuttle commander on the rat mission referred to a colleague who had nursed the rats back to health after their mother refused to feed them as a real hero. The problem with NASA doing crisis training, marginal scientific research and other insipid tasks is that it does not defeat the classic argument against the space program—that NASA's mega-budget could be better used if it went to (fill in your favorite liberal social program here). The intangibles are what make the space program worthwhile. It gives us heroism, hope and nationalism.
John Glenn has been on the ground for more than a week, and the lessons on where to go from here already have been taught. NASA should focus less on unappealing and inefficient science and more on exploration, with an eye toward more manned missions to destinations beyond the moon.
An early 21st century trip to Mars is already in the works and should be more heavily publicized. In executing such a mission, NASA will no doubt be tempted to include other countries for the sake of international goodwill. A joint venture would destroy the expected rejuvenation of national unity.
Nobody really knows or cares about what scientific knowledge we will come away with as a result of Glenn's mission. Instead, we were reminded (some for the first time) of that point in 1962 when a nation's hope and pride rested on his shoulders. No one wishes for a rebirth of global rivalry. There is a startling difference between the bland thought of a UN flag protruding from Martian soil and the spine-tingling imagery of the Stars and Stripes planted by a future American hero.

Mastery of foreign language important
One of KU's greatest policies is to require four semesters in a foreign language. Learning a foreign language is much more than ordering tacos or bratwurst. It is a mind opening experience. It's not only about traveling, but about getting in touch with a different culture, different people.
Once you have this experience, you become a more enriched, interesting person.
The University of Kansas wants to build well-informed individuals, who will be able to contribute to society in various ways.
1
If its students are bilingual, they are more prepared to enter the work force, to adapt to new situations, and to have intelligent conversations.
Therefore, we cannot agree with Carrie Johnson's column on Monday. You already had the opportunity to learn three foreign languages, and it looks like you are underestimating their importance.

Help awaits Western Civ classes
By Melody Ard Kansan staff writer
It is the one class that looms over the heads of most University of Kansas students.
Known for its extensive reading and writing assignments, Western Civilization can be intimidating.
Because of that, the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and Writers' Roost have teamed up to offer students extra help with their writing assignments.
"We have a writing-intensive component in our program," said Antha Cotten-Specklemeyer, assistant director of the Western Civilization program. "We have an interest in helping students develop their writing skills, and we use writing as a learning tool."
James Abraham and Rachel Boeckman, the two undergraduate Western Civilization writing assistants, were hired specifically to coach students on their writing assignments
The two tutors work with the writing consulting department and were trained with the other tutors who staff the Writers' Roost.
TUTORING SCHEDULE
■ When: Tuesday: 9:30-11:30 a.m.
Wednesday: 8:30-9:30 a.m., 1:30-3 p.m.
Thursday: 1:20 p.m.
Friday: 8:30-9:30 a.m.
Where: 4006 Wescoe
As a requirement for their jobs, both Abraham and Boeckman took Western Civilization before being hired as tutors.
"Those two went through the training program with the other tutors but work only with Western Civilization because they were hired under special circumstances," said Michele Eodice, director of Writing Consulting-Student Resources. "Right now, they are the only course-dedicated tutors, but we hope to have other tutors who will be discipline-dedicated."
Boeckman said she was recommended for the position by her Western Civilization graduate assistant.
"We don't get a lot of people in here,but the
people who do come in make a lot of improvement," she said.
So far, only 15 students have used the tutoring service, and that has been the main concern for tutors and the departments.
"I would stress the benefits of this," Boeckman said. "Everyone who has been in here has been very vocal about how much it has helped. People come in here who are completely stumped, and we work through it together. They do it themselves, but they like to have the feedback and support."
Although the tutors would like to see more students, Pat McQueeney, director of Writing Consulting: Faculty Resources, said they were not a waste of money. The Western Civilization tutoring is not available during all the hours that the Writers' Roosts are open, which cuts down on the hours the tutors work.
In addition to having few hours, the Western Civilization tutors use the free time during their office hours to work on a tutoring handbook.
Subcommittee drafts KU Web policy
By Liz Wristen
Kansan staff writer
Attention Internet users: For the first time, the University of Kansas will have a policy dictating World Wide Web privileges and consequences for students.
Student Senate's Electronic Media Policy Subcommittee devised a policy draft at its Tuesday night meeting that sets electronic standards for University Web users.
It describes which University sponsored entities can use the University Web resources, the copyright and trademark laws, the reasons the University provides Web services and prosecution of Web service offenders
Examples of policy violations include posting of obscene materials, harassment of libelous statements toward other users, academic dishonesty and using computing facilities for personal financial gain.
Brett Stoppel, Garden City junior and chairman of the subcommittee, said, "Our genuine interest is to get what we want in the Web policies without stepping on anyone's constitutional rights."
He said that the draft probably would need revision to avoid ambiguity.
Members of the subcommittee reviewed the policy statements of several universities for ideas, said Greg Smith, Olathe junior and a member of the subcommittee.
Chris Borniger, Wichita sophomore and a member of the subcommittee, said the statement would be reviewed by Legal Services for Students before being used at the University.
"Our primary goal right now is to create policies that fit the needs of the University," Borniger said. "If this statement is going to be longstanding, then we are going to try and be as specific and as fair as possible."
The Electronic Media Policy Subcommittee was created in October after students placed potentially libelous material on a University Web site.

International students have few housing options for Thanksgiving
By Sarah Hale
Big wheels keep on turnin'
Kansan staff writer
Some KU international students may miss out on a traditional American holiday experience.
Instead of feasting on turkey and stuffing, the students will have to ford themselves because no dining services will be available.
More than 120 students who live in the residence or scholarship halls will stay in McCollum Hall during Thanksgiving break.
Fred McElhenie, assistant director at the department of student housing, said that international students were told ahead of time which residence hall would be open and that there typically weren't any problems.
Students who did not know ahead of time that the halls will be closed from 11 p.m. Nov.24 to 8 a.m. Nov.30, will need to try to find a friend to go home with.
McEhlenie said that students, international or otherwise, could contact the housing department if they needed a place to stay.
Because the scholarship halls also will be closed during Thanksgiving break, some residents will feed into McCollum or make other arrangements.
"What we find is that frequently the scholarship hall residents will go home with a friend," McElhennie said. "We've never really had problems because all are closed."
Jayhawker Towers and Stouffer Place apartments will remain open for the holiday.
International students who would like learn more about the
Thanksgiving customs can contact International Student Services.
The Thanksgiving Homestay Program, which began in the 1950s, offers international students the opportunity to stay with a family for the holiday.
Michael Ediger, assistant director of the office, said that 32 students had signed up for the program and that two-thirds of them were planning on staying with the family the entire week.
The rest of the students are going to visit the family for Thanksgiving only.
"I think it's a good opportunity for the students and the host family because they can share their cultures together." Ediger said.
The deadline has passed for the program, but Ediger said that interested students could get on a waiting list.
meeting my host family and learning about Thanksgiving, I don't know anything about the traditions."
"I don't have any other place to go, so this is the best option for me," said Mohammed Matin, Karachi, Pakistan freshman who is going to participate in the program. "I'm looking forward to
Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs, said that most of the sororities and fraternities also would be closed during break. He said that presidents and house directors decided whether or not the houses would remain open.
McElhenie said that the residence and scholarship halls would close again from Dec. 17 to Jan. 13 for winter break.

so the algorithm can detect seizures. This warning device could help free epileptics from the prison of isolation that their brain disorder and society have created for them.
"A warning device could keep people in the workplace, which helps with self esteem," said Noreen Thompson, an advanced-practice mental-health nurse who works with Osorio's patients. "So much of the depression people have comes from all the restraints of not being able to live a normal life and be productive and have

stare off into space and to lose awareness. Some seizures are more severe, rendering a person unconscious and causing the body to stiffen, then to lerk uncontrollably.
What really causes seizures is unknown in 70 percent of the cases. In 30 percent of epileptics, seizures can result from a brain tumor, stroke, infection or head injury.
Osorio's progress in measuring brain waves is being watched closely by people with epilepsy.
Susan Arthurs, one of the first female commercial airline pilots in the country, lost her career after she had her first seizure nine years ago at age 39. To educate others about the disorder and to promote solutions, she formed the Alliance for Epilepsy Research. The Kansas City, Mo., based organization meets to discuss research projects like Osorio's portable warning device.
"It would mean people could cook without someone with them because they could turn off the stove before having a seizure," she said. "Knowing they would have some warning, people could go out socially and excuse themselves. A whole world could open up."
Measuring the Waves
Osorio and Frei developed the warning device's mathematical algorithm during a study they conducted from 1993 to 1996 on 125 seizures in 16 people. The researchers established a value of 10 as a threshold for predicting seizures. Ten represents a critical level of energy found in epileptic brain signals.

"We determined empirically that if the seizure energy content in a brain signal is 10 or more for about two seconds, the probability that a seizure would occur is 99.1 percent." Osorio said.

neously." Osorio said. "The neurons of the brain work in unison, but they are not fully synchronized. With the epileptic brain, that function is broken and the neurons do the same thing at the same time."
Sifting the Data
Because the epileptic brain is not always in a seizure mode, the mathematical algorithm uses detection software to sift and process brain waves into seizure and nonseizure categories, Osorio said.
Shane Haas, Wellsville electrical engineering and math graduate student, is working with Frei, Osorio and other colleagues to refine the detection software.
"Right now, we have software that works pretty well for all patients," he said. "We want to tune it to an individual so it will do an even better job of predicting that person's seizures."
Haas said it was difficult to measure random and complex brain waves.
"Up to now, there have been no quantitative measures of abnormal vs. normal," Haas said. "It's just been a trained physician looking at the brain-signal data and saying, 'From what I've seen in the past, this doesn't look normal.'"
The brain waves then show up on the computer screen as jagged lines. When the signals ascend above the threshold of 10, the mathematical algorithm knows the brain waves soon will enter the seizure state.
Current tests of the warning device are being conducted at the Med Center's Comprehensive Epilepsy Center and Flint Hills Scientific L.L.C., a small Lawrence high-tech company founded by Osorio and Frei. A computer feeds the prerecorded brain signals to the warning device, which uses the detection software to separate the seizure brain-wave data from the nonseizure brain-wave data.
Connecting With People
Converted brain-wave data
After the two-year test of the prototype warning device, it will be tested on people with epilepsy. Electrodes will be implanted inside an epileptic's brain near the site of seizure activity. The wires connected to the

electrodes will emerge from a small hole in the back of the skull and run under the skin to the chest.
The mathematical algorithm that detects seizures has converted brain waves into data plotted in this graph. The output of the algorithm crosses the seizure threshold of 10 and rises to nearly 1,000 during the seizure, which lasts 2 minutes 40 seconds. Contributed Art.
When the brain signals reach the seizure threshold, the internal implant could transmit through airwaves to a warning device worn by the epileptic, Frei said. The device then would flash, vibrate or sound an alarm, and the person would know to prepare for a seizure.
The prototype warning device is about three to five years from Federal Drug Administration approval and introduction to the marketplace. Once available, it could help epileptics gain some control over the disorder and its social stigma.
Thompson, the mental-health nurse who works with Osorio's patients, said a tremendous amount of ignorance surrounded the disorder.
Understanding the Stigma
Thompson said many people did not finish school because of how they were treated.
"The stigma with this disorder is more harmful than having the seizures," she said. "It follows a person through life resulting in low self esteem and chronic depression. They have despaired so much for so long that they don't have hope they can
"It strikes me how ignorant most teachers and school nurses are, particularly in rural Kansas or Missouri," she said. "We see people as adults who have had heartbreaking experiences as children. Teachers would put them in a corner away from the other children, as if they had something contagious."
turn their lives around."
Arthurs, the former airline pilot with epilepsy, said people with the disorder were even isolated from one another because they usually were confined to their homes.
"People who are having seizures are not out in public," she said. "Even those of us who have it don't know others with epilepsy, because we don't wear it on our sleeves."
Epilepsy is the cruelest of all illnesses, Osorio said. That is why he is dedicated to perfecting this type of prevention device, which he said no one else in the world was testing.
Finding a Solution
The next phase of his research is treatment. Osorio's goal is to have a completely implanted device that can predict and stop seizures. The device could send an electrical impulse to the brain or signal a programmable, implanted drug pump to administer a small dose of a drug to the brain to arrest the seizure.
Unlike the current anti-convulsant drugs taken to treat the disorder, which spread through the whole body, the implanted drug pump would administer only the necessary amount of drug at the right time and to the exact site in the brain where it is needed.
"With other disorders or diseases, people have time to cope and to fight," Osorio said. "The warning and treatment device would give people with epilepsy freedom from the paradox of being fine one minute and then hammered by seizures the next."

Local sites remind us of slavery's past
By Lori O'Toole
Special to the Kanson
An old two-story red-brick house with two chimneys is shrouded by trees in southeast Lawrence. It probably appears much like it did 140 years ago to slaves arriving in the night at this way station to freedom along the Underground Railroad.
The Miller House, 1111 E. 19th St., is one of the many stops along the Underground Railroad that still stands in Lawrence. Now it is the home of Dennis Dailey, professor of social welfare, and his wife, Judy.
"I've had moments out here in the summer when there's no sound and nobody around," Dailey said. "It's like I'm traveling back in time, and I just try to imagine what it would have been like then."
If Dailey could peek at the way things were 140 years ago, the 22- by 30-foot stone foundation behind his home would have supported a one-story windowless smokehouse.
The original owner, Robert Miller, was an
abolitionist from North Carolina who used the smokehouse to hide slaves. At the time, southern slave owners cursed Lawrence for being an anti-slavery capital.
"They would be here for a day or two or three," Dalley said. "Then they would load up on a wagon and head north. It's really hard to document because it was so secretive."
Because the pro-slavery headquarters at Lecompton was only 12 miles away, secrecy was necessary to ensure the slave's safety. According to the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850, any person caught helping slaves escape would be imprisoned for six months and fined $1,000.
Steven Janson, director of the Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., said that there were clear sources linking the Miller House to the Underground Railroad.
Jansen said that the Dailies received a letter from students in Texas in 1984 about two sources that referred to the Miller House.
Information found at a home in Tennessee revealed that southerners were aware of a safe house east of Lawrence and south of the Kansas river. The description fit the Miller House perfectly.
A second source, written by Alonzo Fuller, a former Lawrence resident, indicated that the Millers sheltered people in their smokehouse.
The Miller house is not the only Underground Railroad "station" in the area though.
Several miles away is the Joel Grover Barn, now part of Lawrence Stonebarn Terrace Fire Station No. 4, 2819 Stonebarn Terrace. The large stone barn, bult in 1858, provided easy concealment for groups of slaves.
Richard Sheridan, former KU professor, referred to the barn as the most important hiding place in Lawrence. Sheridan is author and compiler of the 1998 book "Freedom's Crucible: The Underground Railroad in Lawrence and Douglas County, Kansas, 1854-1865: A Reader."
Although none of the Miller or Grover
descendants live in Lawrence, Margaret Colman Wulfkühle, who lives at 840 N.1500 Road, is able to tell of the lives and contributions of her family.
"My great-grandfather, Ezekiel Colman, was an abolitionist from Massachusetts and was on the anti-slavery committee in this county," she said. "He was a very particular friend of John Brown because they were of the same persuasion."
Colman and his wife, Mary Jane Wendell Colman, hid slaves on their farm where Wulfkuhle now lives.
Wulfkuhle said that the slaves worked in the fields while they stayed here, but they usually disguised them as women in dresses and sunbonnets.
Sheridan said that learning about local history made the Underground Railroad even more interesting.
"I looked for those stories, and one of my purposes was to prove authentic cases." Sheridan said. "It's a thrill. It kind of gives me a feeling of belonging to this part of the United States. I was born and raised in Kansas. I'm a jayhawk."
Photography display showcases work of KU graduate
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
A KU alumnus backpacked through the asphalt streets of big cities and the dirt roads of Third World countries for more than a decade to photograph global change.
For the next two months, the images that captured will be displayed on the walls of the Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St.
"For the last 15 years, it has been a battle to keep focused on my artistic notion of capturing global change in a creative manner," said Garv Smith.
Smith, who graduated from the University of Kansas in 1984 with a degree in journalism, has traveled to 49 states and 42 countries since 1982, searching for subject matter to photograph. He now lives in Lawrence.
[Name]
Gary Smith, Lawrence resident, will have his work shown at the Paradise Cafe, 728 Massachusetts St., for the next two months. Photo by August Anthony Piazza/KANSAN
Smith said that his most exciting experience occurred last year during his travels to the Caribbean island of Montserrat. He snapped pictures of local residents who refused to leave their village at the bottom of the exploding Soufriere Hills volcano.
"I'm inspired about volcanoes," Smith said. "There are a billion closet volcano freaks out there, and I'm one of them."
The two-month display at the Paradise Cafe will be the first time the pictures from Montserrat have been shown in Lawrence.
The exhibit is composed of 275 photographs — 20 of the images were taken in Montserrat. Some of the pieces are single photographs, and others are multi-image pieces that tell a visual story.
Eric Cleveland, general manager of the cafe, was responsible for choosing Smith's work to be displayed.
He said that he allowed artists to show their work as long as it did not offend those who eat at the restaurant.
Cleveland said that there were pieces of Smith's work he liked but that there also were pieces that he did not like.
"In some of his pieces he seems to capture nice light," Cleveland said. "There is also stuff that looks like I could have taken with a snapshot camera and that I could have put together myself."
Smith's work will be sold for prices ranging from $95 to $1,500.
Cleveland said that usually only 5 percent of an artist's work got sold.
"It's more of a good way to give exposure to local artists and makes for an interesting atmosphere," Cleveland said.

SUA to showcase director's debut film
By Pallavi Agarwal
Kansan staff writer
An independent film director is in town tonight with his debut film for this semester's FlixTour, organized by the Student Union Activities.
Life Sold Separately, a 1997 film written and directed by Paul Feig will be shown at 8 p.m. at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
The screening will be followed by a question-and-answer session with Feig.
The film is about four people who meet to get picked up by UFOs. After talking, they realize they have similar reasons for wanting to leave Earth and that in actuality the problems lie with themselves.
The FlixTour gives exposure to low-budget productions and offers film students opportunities to interact with independent film producers and directors, said Jerry O'Leary, SUA spectrum film coordinator and Lawrence senior.
"But the film is pertinent to nonfilm majors, too," he said. "They would get to see films that won't be seen in too many places."
The tour, which came to the University last year, travels to college campuses and brings to audiences films that do not get distributors, said Brett Generaux, SUA vice-president for membership development and Kansas City, Kan., senior.
Two short films also will be shown before the screening of Life Sold Separately. The films are called Bad Bosses Go to Hell and New Testament and are directed by Phillip Pelletier and Erin Cramer, respectively.
The first is a satire about corporate advertising, and the second is a look at interviews that go sour.
One recognizable face in Life Solid Separately is Karl Coleman, who has appeared in *Seinfeld* and has been a TV spokesperson for Nissan ads. Penn Jillette, of the Penn & Teller magician team, also is a member of the cast.
SUA organized the event last academic year and had an audience of about 100 people. The event is free.

Folk musician vows to entertain crowd
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
An up-and-coming folk musician, while not widely recognized in Lawrence, has promised not to bore the audience at Liberty Hall tonight.
"Boring is bad," said Susan Werner, who is on tour promoting her new album *Time Between Trains*. "As a performer, I don't think that you should have to pay attention to me."
Werner said that she would try anything to capture the audience's attention during the show and that she tried to add one variable to each show to keep her performance fresh.
Werner played last spring in Lawrence but has yet to build a strong following in the area. Many students said they were not familiar with the artist.
Margaret Kirtland, St. Louis freshman, said that she liked folk music but she never had heard of Werner.
Werner was raised in a rural Iowa town near Dubuque. She attended graduate school at Temple University in Philadelphia and received a masters degree in classical music.
The opportunity to play at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St., has allowed Werner to return to the Midwest.
"For me, flat is good," Werner said.
Soon after completing her graduate studies, Werner decided to write her own lyrics and sing her own songs.
She plays more than 200 shows a year.
Bob McWilliams, host of a KANU folk radio show called "Trail Mix," said Werner's music could be compared to popular folk musician Joni Mitchell.
Werner said that earlier in her career she wrote about her own experiences but that in the new album, she did not write about herself as much.
Old Mistake and Sorry About Jesus are two songs on the new album that focus on the experiences of others.
"The they are part of an embarrassment series." Werner said. "I'm interested about embarrassment because it is real. I like seeing other people's embarrassment."
Werner will play tonight as part of a double bill with Cheryl Wheeler. It is an all-ages show, and ticket prices range from $12.50 to $15.50.
Neo-Nazi film lacks organization
Movie Reviews
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Skinheads and neo-Nazis receive the big-screen treatment in American History X, a gripping tale that's marred by a half-written script and confused direction.
AMERICAN HISTORY X
That said, the movie provides a startling showcase for actor Edward Norton, who's quickly emerging as his generation's best actor. Leonardo DiCaprio, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck are freshly scrubbed teenyboyners compared to Norton, whose performance as a well-educated skinhead is so unnerving that he may be forgiven for the movie's overall lack of depth.

What's frightening about Norton's character, Derek Vinyard, isn't that he sports white-power tattoos and leads midnight raids of Korea-owned grocery stores in Venice Beach, Calif.

insult. To him, the Klan is nothing more than a "disorganized bunch of rednecks."
American History X begins with Derek's release from prison after serving three years hard time for a racially motivated murder. His younger brother, Danny (Edward Furlong), kept up Derek's legacy of hate in his absence, much to the chagrin of their mother (Beverly D'Angelo) and the local high school principal (Avery Brooks).
Prison changed Derek. Three years of sexual abuse, humiliation and isolation calmed the anger within him, and he now is determined to rescue his brother from following in his footsteps.
Norton is required to play three different faces of Derek: the impressionable teen-ager who's converted into a fanatic by his father's prejudices; the angry racist who grins in triumph after executing two African-American teens who tried to steal his truck; and the older, mature Derek who now lives a life of regret and sorrow.
Unfortunately for Norton, director Tony Kaye and writer David McKenna can't organize the disjointed pieces of Derek's personality into a cohesive portrait. It's too much to accept that Derek would abandon the evil that festered inside him for so long.
With its emphasis on tacked on Hollywood values, *American History X* ultimately cheapens the impact of its anti-hate message.
Happiness offers a disturbing perspective
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Konson movie critic
Kansan movie critic
Make no mistake: Happiness provides anything but a happy time at the movies.
In fact, I wouldn't recommend director Todd Solondz's nutty film to anyone who has ever entertained suicidal thoughts; it so relentless that it might push them over the edge.
Happiness is a scaching look at the underbelly of normalcy. To hear it from Solondz, who also directed the similarly bleak Welcome to the Dollhouse, domestic tranquility is a farce — an unattainable pipe dream. To prove it, he weaves together the stories of about a dozen seemingly
unrelated characters — each of whom is undergoing their own private version of hell on earth.
Philip Seymour Hoffman, last seen as the gay groupie in *Boogie Nights*, is nauseating here with his slimy, sweaty turn as a porn-addicted computer nerd who gets his rocks off making obscene phone calls. He's obsessed with his neighbor (Lara Flyn Boyle), a successful poet who bored with the world, but he's too timid to introduce himself.
Misery also afflicts Boyle's two sisters (Jane Adams, Cynthia Stevenson) but in different ways. Adams is a dejected songwriter who flits from one dead-end job and rotten boyfriend to another. Stevenson puts

forth the image of a happy homemaker, but a secret hurks at home without her knowledge: Her husband (Dylan Baker), a respected psychiatrist, privately harbors a penchant for prepubescent boys.
Baker's performance is outstanding; I've not seen such a complex portrait
of a pedophile since James Mason's work in Stanley Kubrick's 1962 classic *Lolita*. In one scene, Baker's reminding himself to pick up a dozen eggs for his wife; in the next, he hunkerdown in the backseat of a car, masturbating to pictures of teen idols.
It's a credit to Solondz's talent that Baker's character remains oddly sympathetic. Sadly, he doesn't extend the same courtesy to his other characters, most of whom remain one-dimensional through the film.
I'm looking forward to the day when Solondz decides to say what's really on his mind. Maybe then he'll stop hiding behind the forced comedy that weakens Happiness and hampers the power of Baker's terrifying performance.

LSU penalized for booster's gifts to Earl
Earl: Received money from LSU booster.
The Associated Press
BATON ROUGE, La. — Louisiana State will be barred from 1999 postseason tournaments and lose six scholarships in the next three years because a booster paid Lester Earl $5,000 to play basketball there, the NCAA announced yesterday.
Earl had accused former LSU assistant coach Johnny Jones of paying him to attend the school, but the NCAA investigation cleared both Jones and retired head coach Dale Brown, who was in charge of the program during Earl's brief stay at Louisiana State.
"There was no evidence to show that either of the coaches were involved in the cash payments," said Bonnie Slatton, chairman of the NCAA infractions committee.
The Tigers will be on probation for the next three years, losing two scholarships each year. The school also will forfeit the five victories Earl played in before he transferred to Kansas.
Brown, an outspoken critic of the NCAA, retired at the end of the 1997 season after 25 seasons with the Tigers. He said all along that neither he nor Jones, now an assistant at Memphis, had given
Earl money.
Yesterday, Brown blasted Earl's grant of immunity in the investigation.
"I took great pride in doing my best to run an honorable program at LSU and I think our 25-year history speaks well for itself," Brown said in a statement. "However, there are many rules that need to be changed because they breed deceit and hypocrisy in college athletics."
The LSU basketball program has had a complete turnover of coaches and players since Earl played early during the 1996-97 season.
In its own investigation, Louisiana
State admitted that a booster, Redfield Bryan, a physician, had paid Earl as much as $2,000. The school had asked to remain eligible for post season play and televised games.
"There is no evidence whatsoever that either of the coaches knew that the student-athlete would ask for cash or the representative would offer it," said James Wharton, who was on the school's internal investigation panel.
The NCAA said that Louisiana State did not demonstrate a lack of control, which would have led to tougher penalties.
"This is the kind of violation you wake up in the middle of the night worrying about, because you cannot know what a booster is doing," said Slatton, who also is compliance officer at Iowa.
Poor season overshadows football
Louisiana State has begun trying to reinforce its education of boosters on rules violations, hoping they will realize that doing more than buying tickets, contributing to official causes and rooting for the teams will hurt the school, LSU athletic director Joe Dean said.

Lack of fan support, the beginning of the Kansas basketball season and the success of rival Kansas State has left some of the Kansas football players wondering if they've been forgotten.
The Jayhawks, 4-6 on the season with one game remaining, have simply been shoved aside in the past couple of weeks.
The Kansas men's basketball season officially opened last Friday in front of a sell-out crowd at Allen Field House
The very next day, only two weeks after embarrassing the Jayhawks 54-6 at Memorial Stadium, K-State upset the Nebraska Cornhuskers, 40-30, for the first time in 30 years.
All of this adds up to a lot of hype, and none of it is centered around the Kansas Jayhawk football team.
Maybe it's because the Jayhawks end another lackluster season this weekend with a game against Iowa State that will determine which of the two teams will finish last in the Big 12 conference.
Maybe it's because for the third season in a row the team has failed to qualify for a bowl bid.
Or maybe it's just because the fans don't care anymore.
Defensive back Greg Erb said that there were a lot of fans who could be called fair-weather fans.
"They just go for winning teams, basically," he said. "But we do have some real fans that are die-hard fans whether we win or lose."
This isn't quite the support the basketball team receives, though.
"Kansas is, obviously, a basketball school, and that's where a lot of the love is," linebacker Pat Brown said.
But it's not just about the fans.
It's hard not to be forgotten when you play a mere 83 miles down the road from one of the hot football teams in the country.
But no Kansas player is begging K-State the credit it deserves.
"Obviously K-State's a great
team, and they should be in the national title contention," offensive lineman Justin Glasgow said.
All of this is unfortunate for a team that is struggling to define itself among the K-State's and Tennessee's of the world, but for
now, the team is just going to play for itself.
"As a team we're not worried about it," Glasgow said. "We're more worried about just going out and winning for ourselves, and trying to improve the program."
Zac Wegner to undergo testing for head trauma
Kansas quarterback Zac Wegner will undergo testing Jan. 4 in Chicago for concussions he received this season.
Wegner, who has had three concussions in his lifetime, suffered one in the Colorado game and another one only a week later in the game against Kansas State.
Wegner also received a crushing blow to the middle finger of his left hand during the K-State game which required more than 20 stitches.
The stitches have been removed, but his finger is still swollen.
Although Wegner attends practice every day and throws the ball around some with the scout team, he will not play in the Jayhawk's final game Saturday against Iowa State.
Wegner is still questionable for next season, depending on results from the tests.

A look behind, ahead for college football recruit
Editor's note: This is the third in a series of articles chronicling the recruitment of a high school athlete through the eyes of the recruit. Kansan sportswriter Randy Withers has followed Shawnee Mission Northwest senior Jason Rowe through his senior season to get an inside look at the world of recruiting. Rowe received letters from the University of Kansas, as well as Hutchinson, Butler and Coffeyville community colleges throughout the season and is continuing to draw interest.
By Randy Withers Kansan sportswriter
Shawnee Mission Northwest senior lineman Jason Rowe and his teammates endured a nightmarish 1998 season, finishing 3-6. Now that a difficult year has come to an end, Rowe realizes that there are more important things than the record his team posted this year. Among them, the chance to play college football and the many memories he has of the game.
"What I will miss most about high school ball is the friendship that you have with the other players," Rowe said. "It seems like only yesterday (as freshmen) that we were practicing with the sophomores. It has gone by so fast."
Rowe has put football in a new perspective now that he realizes how fortunate he is to be able to play at the next level.
"The seniors are sad to see that football has come and gone," he said. "This was the last time many of them will get to play, and now I think they know it."
Rowe has many fond memories of his time at Northwest, as do his coaches. Head coach Scott Diebold ranks him among the best players he has ever coached.
"He's right there at the top in linemen over the last five years." Diebold said.
After watching him develop as a player, Diebold said he believed that Rowe could compete at the collegiate level.
("He has) some untapped potential," Diebold said. "(He has the) physical tools to do whatever he wants."
"Athletically, I think he's got some good talents there, some good ability," Jensen said. "We've had other people go on that were of comparable ability and maturity that continue to have success at the upper level."
Northwest has turned out several successful college linenes. Among them, is Aaron

Rowe: Ready to play at the collegiate level.
"When Aaron was here, Aaron definitely showed some promising signs, but there was also some of that lack of maturity, both football wise and physically," Jensen said. "Going to Fort Scott allowed him to have that opportunity (to develop)."
Starnes, a fourth-year junior at Purdue who has started on both guard and tackle this season. Starnes played at Fort Scott Community College before transferring to Purdue.
Diebold said he felt that Rowe could have similar success.
"I think he's in that same development, and getting to go to a juco will give him the opportunity he needs to develop." Diebold said.
Jensen said he felt that, like Starnes before him, Rowe could benefit from playing at the junior college level.
Rowe said he believed he could be successful, but would rather play at a four-year school and work his way up through the program.
"A better program would be a better experience," Rowe said. "I am looking forward to the experience and challenge of college football and can't wait to get into it."
Swimming shored up by team's confidence

"I think anytime we take our team cross country, it's important to perform well," Kansas coach Gary Kempf said. "I think we're going to see some great competition. We're going to compete against some people we don't normally see and we'll compete against some real fast people."

The men's
team, ranked
25th in the SACSCA preseason poll, will be joined by two other ranked teams, including 19th-ranked Louisiana State, and the host team, 22nd-ranked North Carolina.
Freestyle swimmer Trent Hartl said that the recent 172-129 loss in a dual at 15th-ranked Texas A&M on Nov. 6 was frustrating, and that this weekend the men would seek redemption.
"We can add a lot of confidence coming off a disappointing loss to A&M," Hartl said. "We will try to come out with personal bests in times and score as many points as possible."
The women's field is a little more stacked with talent.
The women swept all their events in a meet against North Texas on Nov. 7 and are looking to carry that momentum to North Carolina this weekend.
Kansas is unranked, but did receive votes in the preseason poll. It will face four ranked teams. The host Tar Heels are ranked 16th, Kentucky is 19th, Louisiana State is 24th and Clemson is tied for 25th.
"If we could do well this weekend, it would be a real confidence booster going into our conference meets," Adrienne Turner said.
Turner, who regularly swims in the butterfly races and the 400 individual medley, said that she hoped that having the two-week break would enable her to swim her best 200 fly of the season.
Despite the large number of renowned teams at the cup, Kempf said that he expected his team to perform well at the meet.
"We have a top-25 men's team, and the women will be there soon," he said. "We have the expectations to swim well this weekend and to do the job we are capable of doing."

Buffaloes could face rocky hoops season
By Kevin Wilson
Kansas sportswriter
Things keep getting worse for Colorado men's basketball head coach Ricardo Patton.
In addition to replace more than half of the
man of the team's scoring and rebounding from last season, Patton must now also find a solution for the injuries that have ravaged this year's team.
Patton: Says injuries have plagued Bufaloes this season.

"We look like a M.A.S.H. unit with all of our injuries," Patton said. "Jamahi Mosely is out for eight to 10 weeks because of knee surgery." Kyle Williams is also out with a knee injury but
is expected back within a couple of days."

Moseley, a 68 sophomore forward who averaged 4.4 points and 4.0 rebounds last season, is more optimistic about when he will return.
"I'm doing well," Moseley said. "I am recovering much quicker than what the doctors expected. I will be back in six to eight weeks."
Even with Mosely and Williams in the mix, Patton will be hard pressed to improve on last season's 13-14 record. If the Buffaloes are to be successful this season they will have to rely heavily on their multi-talented guard, Kenny Price.
The 6-4 senior is Colorado's leading returner in scoring, rebounds, assists and steals and will be expected to provide leader
ship to the seven newcomers who join the Bufaloes roster. Price was named the Big 12's Newcomer of the Year last season after averaging 14.5 points and 4.4 points and leading the conference in three-pointers made and three-point percentage.
Price also was one of 11 Big 12 All-Stars that played throughout Europe this past summer, averaging 11.2 points and 3.2 rebounds on the tour.
"Everyone enjoyed the trip over there." Price said. "It was a chance for me to see the world. I hope some of the other guys on the team get the same chance in the future."
Despite the grim predictions — Colorado was ranked 10th in the preseason Big 12 standings — Patton said he thought that all the negative opinions would actually help the Buffaloes.
"I would hope that any time a team is picked to finish in the bottom tier of their conference, that would serve as some type of motivator," Patton said. "That should get the competitive juices flowing and cause the team to go out and work harder in order to prove the polls wrong."
Price agreed.
"It is a motivation for us," Price said. "I know that my team will do whatever it takes to be successful this year. I have faith in everyone on the team. Coach has done a good job of preparing us for the season."
This was apparent after Colorado won its first two games of the new season. The Buffaloes defeated Denver University 69-66 last Saturday and followed it up with another 69-66 victory against Colorado State on Tuesday. Despite the early-season success, the Buffaloes are well aware that the talent-level in
the big 12 is superior to that of their first two opponents.
"I just believe you have to prepare yourself to the best of your ability because you know the competition is going to be tough night-in
and night-out," Mosely said. "If you feel like you are mentally prepared for the game and have the confidence that you have practiced and prepared well, win or lose, you know that you have given it your all."
Colorado women's team looks for redemption
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
Don't call it a comeback
Once one of the premier women's basketball programs in the country, Colorado, hit a low point last season by going 12-16. Coach Ceal Barry, who before last year led the Buffaloes to six straight 20-win seasons and NCAA Tournament appearance, thinks the Buffaloes aren't that far removed from the glory days.
"We're deeper, more talented and we have more size," she said. "We need to keep our focus and realize that last year just wasn't our year. Last year was a result of poor recruiting. In retrospect, we had a couple summers where I wasn't out recruiting."
Not that she was on her couch eating
bonbons. Barry spent the summers from 1992-96 involved in USA Women's Basketball.
"That's a lot to ask," Barry said. "But I had a great group of players last year, I'd do it again."
She may not have to. Without national duties the past two summers, Barry has compiled a young team full of promise. Colorado has ten underclassmen, including a highly-regarded recruiting class of five freshman led by 6-4 Britt Hartshorn, the consensus pick as Big 12 Preseason Freshman of the Year.
"I expect her to see a lot of playing time," Barry said. "Britt has very soft hands and runs the floor well. She will add athleticism to our post game."
Hartshorn joins junior Jenny Circle in the frontcourt. Circle is the Buffaloes' leading returning scorer after averaging 9.1 points per game last season. She and 5-11 senior Shelley Garcia are the team's only two returning starters.
"Shelley's one of the greatest leaders I've ever seen," Circle said. "She's very consistent; you never see her slack off. I'm only a junior, but with only two seniors I feel I need to lead a little too this season."
The team's third upperclassman, junior Michelle Hasheider, has been plagued by leg injuries and will possibly not play this season.
Considering the team finished eighth in the Big 12 last season and lost three starters, Colorado's preseason selection as the conference's sixth-best team may seem generous. But don't tell that to Circle.
by Hartshorn in the starting frontcourt, but the backcourt is up for grabs. Freshmen Eisha Bohman and Linda Lappe started the Buffaloos' first game, a 70-58 win over Denver on Saturday; but another freshman, Mandy Nightingale, also is a possibility.
Garcia and Circle will likely be joined
"It gives us more motivation to prove that we're better than that," she said. "For a while, we were the ones picked near the top. Now it's kind of our turn to try to knock those teams off and get back to the top again."

Soccer player draws strength from her faith
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
problem many students
But not Cynthia Dable.
Wondering what to do when the season is over is a problem many student-athletes face.
Dahle said that serving as president, playing soccer and having one of the highest grade point averages on the team kept her busy.
Dahle, a junior and the all-time leader in points for the Kansas soccer team, is the president of the University of Kansas Ward of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She was named to that position at the start of her sophomore year.
Former Kansas coach Dan Magner said that it did not surprise him that Dahle was successful in many aspects of her life.
"It takes a lot of time management and a lot of sacrifice," she said. "It's time consuming, but rewarding. It's important to me to serve my church and serve the Lord."
"Cynthia is a special person, and once you get to know her, it's not a surprise at all that she is able to devote herself to several tasks and be successful at them," he said.
Dahle said that there were three main goals for the Latter-day Saints student association.
The first is for the students to build friendships within the Latter-day Saints community. Second, she said, the association offers religion classes at its institute building at 19th Street and Ousdahl Road.
"These are open to everyone, and all Latter-day Saints are encouraged to take one every semester," she said.
Third, Dahle said, the association tries to provide services on campus and within the community.
"This part is struggling right now," she said. "We have worked with Habitat for Humanity before, and we have put coupons on cans for older people at Food 4 Less."
Dahle chose to come to Kansas, instead of the Mormon-affiliated Brigham Young University, after she visited Kansas her senior year in high school.
"I like the support of athletics and the church group that's here," she said.
Growing up in Anchorage, Alaska, Dahle said that she always had been a minority because of her Mormon religion.
"The fact that I don't drink or hang out in bars sets me apart," she said. "I have to find my own fun things to do."
Other than not drinking, the Mormon religion also forbids using tobacco and drinking coffee and tea.
"One reason for this is health reasons," she said. "You have to control you own body, and you don't when you have those substances in you."
Many Mormons serve missions for their church, and Dahle plans to embark on hers once she is finished with school.
Dahle said that her brother served his in Tempe, Ariz., and that her dad did his mission in Florida.
Each man is required to serve a mission, but the women are not. Dahle said that it was not up to her where she served her mission.
Magner said that not everyone could juggle as many activities as Dahle but that he had an idea of how she did it.
"I believe that Cynthia's strength comes from her deep faith, and that empowers her in all aspects of her life," he said.

NBA negotiations to resume
Owners, players hope to save season
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The long silence between owners and players has ended. The opposing sides in the NBA lockout finally spoke after 11 days and decided to resume full collective bargaining talks later this week.
"We sort of sense that with the holidays approaching, if we don't start making progress soon, the season is in jeopardy," deputy commissioner Russ Grank said. "We'll give it one more try on Friday."
Commissioner David Stern, Granik and Steve Mills, the NBA's vice president for basketball development, met for two hours at a Manhattan hotel with union director Billy Hunter, union president Patrick Ewing and Herb Williams of the New York Knicks.
"It was, as usual, cordial but unproductive," Granik said. "We didn't get anywhere."
Still, by agreeing to a larger session tomorrow—the first involving the full owners' and players' negotiating committees since Oct. 28 —the sides showed a renewed sense of urgency to try to strike a deal.
The first six weeks of the season already have been scrapped, and with each passing day, the likelihood increases of the season not beginning until January. If a 5-game season were to be salvaged, a deal would have to be in place by mid-December.
"When serious negotiations begin, I would expect (Michael Jordan) will be back in there," agent David Falk said. "The next step has to be for the league to come in with a better offer."
Jordan took part in the last full bargaining talks Oct. 28, exchanging harsh words with Washington owner Abe Pollin in a meeting that preceded the 81/2-hour session. Jordan has not been heard from publicly since those discussions ended.
"What this thing is all about is the process of negotiation." Falk said. "Both sides are trying to be fair, but both have different understandings of what fair is. There is a range of fairness, and both sides
should make sure they don't over personalize this."
The owners and players are stuck on the main economic argument of what constitutes a fair split of revenue.
Players received 57 percent of revenues last season,
and are offering
no concessions to slow
salary
growth unless the percentage rises
to 60 percent.
Owners, who had the right to reopen the last labor agreement if the percentage rose above 51.8 percent, want the players to accept 50 percent.
There had
NBA
There had been an expectation around the league that a deal would be reached in time for NBC to televise its first games of the season — a Christmas doubleheader of Chicago vs. New
York and the Los Angeles Lakers vs. Phoenix.
"My guess isn't better than anybody else's, but I hope we're showing games," said Ed Markey, an NBC spokesman. "If there are no NBA games, we might revert back to showing regular Friday night programming."
The owners have offered increased minimum salaries for veterans and have agreed in principle to the union's request for an annual salary cap exception equal to the average salary (which was $2.6 million last season), but have demanded other mechanisms that would limit salaries the highest-paid players could receive.
In some cases, the offer on the table from the league would cut superstar salaries by tens of millions of dollars per player over several years.
"I'm against the deal for one reason. It scales back the percentage of revenues going to the players from a projected 60 percent to 48 percent," Falk said. "That's an enormous reduction, and to suggest that it's good is foolish."
Gonzalez wins American League MVP
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Juan Gonzalez was voted the American League's Most Valuable Player yesterday, overwhelmingly defeating Nomar Garcia-parara and Derek Jeter to win the award for the second time in three seasons.
out the inference season.
Gonzalez, who had the most RBI in the AL in 49 years and led Texas to its second AL West title in three seasons, received 21 first-place votes and seven second-place votes for 357 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
AMERICAN LEAGUE
"This is a great moment for everybody, for the whole team and the organization," Gonzalez said in a conference call from Puerto Rico.
Garciaparra, who helped Boston win the A1
playoff wild card, got five firsts, seven seconds and seven thirds and had 232 points.
Jeter, one of four players on the World Series champion New York Yankees to receive votes, had two firsts, six seconds and three thirds, finishing with 180 points.
Gonzalez beat Seattle shortstop Alex Rodriguez
290-287 winning the MVP two years ago.
"The first time was too tight," said Gonzalez, the first Latin American native to win two MVPs.
And it could be a Latin American sweep if Sammy Sosa beats Mark McGwire on Thursday for the National League MVP.
"I'm waiting for tomorrow's results ... and praying for Sammy." Gonzalez said.
Gonzalez hit .318 with 45 homers and 157 RBI, the most in the AL since Ted Williams and Vern Stephens each had 159 for Boston in 1949.
"He's a great, great hitter," McGwire said.
"But you know, the sad thing, if somebody said,
'Who was the 1996 MVP in the American
League? I bet you nobody really knows — Juan Gonzalez. Every year, year in, year out, he just puts up the numbers. It just seems like he doesn't get the notoriety he should."
Gonzalez had 101 RBI at the All-Star break, becoming only the second player topping the century mark going into the All-Star game (Hank Greenberg had 103 in 1935).
By the final week of July, he had 116 RBI in 105 games, bringing up talk he could challenge the record of 190. set by Hack Wilson in 1930.
"It isn't impossible," Gonzalez said in July. "I just need to stay healthy and keep working hard."
and the chance to teach that record disappears on Garciaparra, a unanimous choice as the 1997 AL Rookie of the Year, hit .323 with 35 homers and 122 RBI. Jeter, a unanimous pick as the 1996 AL Rookie of the Year, batted .324 with 19 homers and 84 RBI, providing solid and sometimes spectacular play at shortstop from start to finish.
Yankees still undecided about acquiring Belle
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Now that the New York Yankees have met Albert Belle, they still seem unsure if they want him.
Yankees general manager Brian Cashman returned Tuesday from a dinner with Belle and his agent in Tucson, Ariz. But George Steinbrenner hasn't met with the controversial outfielder, and the owner sounded as if no offer had been made.
Stainbrenner said he was awaiting a recommendation from Cashman, manager Joe Torre and his other advisers.
"That's up to others to tell me if they're interested," Steinbrenner said after a ceremony opening a Yankees World Series exhibit in the Tweed Court House next to City Hall. "It's what my GM wants and my manager wants."
Belle, under a special clause in his contract, is a free agent but has until Dec. 2 to return to his deal with the White Sox, which
Yankees
Boston general manager Dan
Duquette met with Belle last week, and the outfielder said then that the Yankees and Red Sox were the teams that interested him most.
"They were both successful meetings," said Belle's agent, Arn Tellem. "We should be hearing back from them shortly."
However, the Yankees may not be that hot for Belle, who doesn't play center field. Brian Jordan, another free-agent outfielder, was due to visit New York yesterday, and New York has put out feelers about the possibility of trading for Jim Edmonds, Rondell White or Ray Lankford.
In addition, a source familiar with
the Yankees, speaking on the condition he not be identified, said some New York officials are pursuing Belle as a bluff.
Steinbrenner reiterated that he was afraid of Belle's volatile personality.
"We got the same kind of questions when Jimmy Key left us and we got David Wells," Steinbrenner said. "We got questions with Darryl Strawberry. We got questions with Doc (Dwight Gooden)."
Cashman said the dinner with Belle was pleasant.
"It was the first time I ever had a chance to meet with him," Cashman said. "Seems like a good guy."
The Associated Press
DENVER — Denver Broncos coach Mike Shanahan has little to say about the behavior of the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Broncos improved to 10-0 Monday night with a 30-7 rout against Kansas City, a game that ended with the Chiefs being penalized five times for personal fouls.
Broncos going strong after win against Chiefs
POLICE
On Denver's final scoring drive, linebacker, Derrick Thomas drew three flags, two for grabbing Shannon Sharpe's face mask and one for hitting Bronco quarterback Bubby Brister in the head after a sack.
"The way that football game ended wasn't a first-class matter." Shanahan said Tuesday. "But I'm not going to talk about the Kansas City Chiefs. I'm going to talk about the Denver Broncos.
As for Denver's prospects for winding up 16-0, Shanahan said the Broncos are approaching the season one game at a time.
"I was pleased with the way we held our composure and controlled ourselves, and we took the 15-yard penalties," he said. "For our guys to handle themselves the way they did speaks volumes about the character of our football team."
"I think it's great to talk about this, but our players are smart enough to understand that you don't talk about six games," he said. "You talk about one game."
"That's the only way you have a chance to do the things that we've done thus far is to have a team mature enough to understand that we've got a heck of a football team coming in here, and if we're not ready to play, we're not going to win. It's a credit to them what they've done thus far. So hopefully we can keep it going."
On Sunday, the defending Super Bowl champions try to creep closer to perfection against the Oakland Raiders (7.3) at Mile High Stadium, where Denver has won 21 consecutive regular season home games. The Broncos' last regular season home loss came against Seattle on Dec. 10, 1996.
Shanahan said he was uncertain whether John Elway, fullback Howard Griffith and receiver Ed McCaffrey would be healthy enough to return Sunday.
Elway, who has nursed a strained hamstring and a stiff back, has missed two consecutive games with sore ribs. Terrell Davis' leading blocker, was out with a partially torn left knee ligament, and McCaffrey left Monday's game late in the first quarter with a strained right hamstring.
O'Donnell loses position as starter in Cincinnati
The Associated Press
CINCINNATI — Neil O'Donnell was replaced yesterday as Cincinnati Bengals starting quarterback by Paul Justin for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Justin had been the No. 3 quarterback.
O'Donnell, who started the first 10 games this season, is listed as the No. 2 quarterback for the Ravens' game, with Jeff Blake sliding to No. 3.
"We're looking for a spark on offense, and Paul deserves a chance," coach Bruce Coslet said.
The Bengals (2-8) have lost seven of their last eight games, including Sunday's 24-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings.
Justin had said this week that he understood why Bengals fans were calling for change.

"The main thing is that people just want something to happen," he said.
The Bengals already have lost a game this season to Baltimore (3-7).
O'Donnell, signed during the off-season as a free agent after being let go by the New York Jets, won the starting job in preseason but has struggled in the last month. The offense has managed a total of two field goals in the last two games under O'Donnell's direction.
Justin and Blake have replaced O'Donnell in the fourth quarter of games recently. Blake has struggled nearly as much as O'Donnell.

Injuries hamper'Huskers
The Associated Press
LINCOLN, Neb. — The once mighty Nebraska Cornhuskers have looked more like patients in a MASH unit than a football team this season, but they are not using it as an excuse for their lowest ranking since 1990.
The 'Huskers started the season with a new quarterback and running back, an inexperienced offensive line and without two defensive All-Americans from the 1997 co-national championship team. Then injuries entered the picture, contributing significantly to Nebraska's 8-3 record and No. 17 ranking.
Nine players listed as starters at the beginning of the season have missed a total of 41 games. Injuries have sideline several important backups.
That compares to just three starting players missing a total of six games from 1995 through 1997, when Nebraska posted a 36-2 record and won or won
shared two national championships.
No excuses, but I've never seen such an avalanche of injuries in one year," said Sports Information Director Chris Anderson, who has kept a running
tally of the injured players for reporters. Let's start at quarterback, where the Huskers have had three different players start games this year.
N
Tweets
The problems began when starter Bobby Combe tomore a knee ligament in the season onenter.
He tried to play in several games, but repeated swelling in the knee has forced him to the sideline until after the season, when he might have surgery.
Backup Eric Crouch, who was praised for his play in last week's 40-30 loss to No. 2 Kansas State, has been
bothered by a hip pointer and a pulled hamstring.
The Cornhuskers' top running back, DeAngelo Evans, has been limited to three games by an assortment of injuries, most recently a bruised tailbone suffered Oct. 3 against Oklahoma State; he hasn't played since.
Backup Correll Buckhalter has battled torn bursa sacs in both elbows and a hip pointer.
Dan Alexander, who began the season at third-string running back, is out for the season after tearing a knee ligament against Kansas State.
Other key players who have been injured include: wide receiver Lance Brown, who missed six games with a broken bone in his foot; defensive end Mike Ricker, who is suffering from an inflammation and erosion of the hip bones; safety Clint Finley, who missed three games with a knee injury; and defensive tackle Jason Wiltz, who has had back problems.
Florida coach beefs up defense
The Associated Press
GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Going against a cornerback who intercepted four passes last week for the nation's stingiest defense doesn't seem to bother Florida.
In fact, if you didn't tell quarterback
Doug Johnson about Mario Edwards' record-setting feat, he wouldn't know it happened.
Gator
"I didn't even hear about anybody getting four picks, if that tells you anything." Johnson said Tuesday.
That's the kind of attitude that seems to sum it up for the fourth-ranked Gators as they prepare for Saturday's game against Edwards and No.5 Florida State (10-1).
"We don't worry about that kind of stuff," Johnson said. "Just because a guy gets four picks on Wake Forest, we're not going to change anything. He's no different than any other corner. They're all great athletes."
It may sound smug, but a lot of that confidence comes from the fact that the Gators (9-1) have always moved the ball against the Seminoles. Since Steve Spurrier arrived in 1990, Florida has averaged 344 yards passing against FSU defenses that have almost always been among the best in the country.
As much as the talent on Florida's offense, Spurrier's presence seems to serve as the Gators' greatest confidence builder.
There's always a certain mystery as to just what the coach will pull out of the bag for the team he playfully refers to as the "Semis."
"He has a great knack of visualizing ways to get the ball to wide receivers," defensive coordinator Bob Stoops said. "He has ways to find open spots in the defense. It doesn't matter if it's FSU or anybody else ... And players have a good knack of being able to execute our plays."
For the past three seasons, Florida State has thrived on playing an aggressive, bump-style pass defense, similar
to the kind Stoops brought to Florida from Kansas State.
The Seminoles dare teams to attack their defense, and when they do, a good player like Edwards can produce a four-interception game against an overmatched opponent.
Spurrier gladly takes on challenges like that, because he knows he has the talent — both on his team and in his mind — to retaliate.
"When it comes to game plans and coaching during the game, I don't think anyone can hold anything to him," Johnson said. "He's a genius, and just being around him when he comes up with plays, you're thinking, 'Wow, how does he get to that so quick?' That's why it's so fun to play for him."
Asked for his method during Florida State week, Spurrier gives the kind of answer that sums up his team's confidence in a way mere Xs and Os never could.
"We'll draw up a few new plays, but we try not to draw up too much different stuff," he said.
Opposing team's coach, spouse and assistant arrested for scam
The Associated Press
LUBBOCK, Texas — Authorities are still deciding whether to file charges against the Hampton University women's basketball coach, her husband and an assistant who were arrested for allegedly trying to con a woman in a Wal-Mart parking lot.
The arrests forced the cancellation of Hampton's scheduled game Tuesday night against No. 12 Texas Tech.
Police Chief Ken Walker said yesterday the circumstances around the arrest and allegations against coach Patricia Bibbs, her husband Ezell Bibbs and assistant coach Vanetta Kelso would be looked into before further action was taken.
"We're looking into the incident to see if this was a case of mistaken identity or not, but we clearly had a victim transported to the scene that said that without a doubt those were the people involved," Walker said.
Those arrested were accused of having tried to play what police refer to as one of the "oldest cons in the book."
"We call it the pigeon drop," Walker said. "Typically the victim of the pigeon drop is elderly. Someone will come up to the victim in a parking lot, telling them they've found a purse with a lot of money. Through some sort of long complicated story, the con artist convinces the person to put up money ... to retain a lawyer so that they can both lay claim to the money. Of course, the victim never sees
the money or the suspect again."
Walker said that after the alleged victim was approached by one of the suspects, she left the Walt Mart parking lot and called police. Police apprehended Bibbs, her husband and Kelso several minutes later at a Holiday Inn parking lot. The victim was brought to the scene of the arrest, where she identified the suspects.
School officials said Kelso, who is pregnant, was traumatized and required medical attention. Police reported that an ambulance was called to the scene of the arrest because she was agitated and nauseated.
The three were released from custody Tuesday evening without being charged, and they returned to Virginia last night.
Richard Kilwien, spokesman for Hampton University, said that both schools agreed to void the game on the schedule. It will count neither as a loss for Hampton, nor as a victory for Tech, and it will not be rescheduled, he said.
Hampton University officials scheduled a news conference today to comment further on the arrests. A release from the school contends the three were "falsely arrested because of mistaken identity" and "the DA's office also communicated orally that no charges will be filed."
we regret that this game had to be canceled." Kilwien said. "Our women's basketball team had looked forward to playing Texas Tech because they are one of the top women's basketball programs in the country."
Police have taken issue with both of those claims. Walker said police had not determined whether the arrest was a mistake. Assistant District Attorney Clay Abbott denied the assertion that his office would not file charges.
Police have taken issue with both of those claims.
Iowa State's Knighten prepares to meet Kansas
AMES, Iowa — There were so many times Kemp Knighten could have said he was sick of losing and quit. So many times he could have gone back home to Florida and escaped Iowa winters forever. So many times he could have stopped working out because his knee hurt so badly.
The Associated Press
But to quit would have betrayed what he stood for, so knighten continued on. He is one of the final five at Iowa State, the last holdovers from the days of former coach Jim Walden.
They will play their last game as Cyclones on Saturday when Kansas visits Jack Trice Stadium. In that group are Knighten, a defensive back turned linebacker; tight end Damian Gibson; defensive back Dawan Anderson; and offensi-
IOWA STATE
PATTOUERS
An Anderson; and offensive linemen Charley Bogwill and Eugene Bernal.
All were on the 1994 Iowa State team that went 0-10. All have stayed through the first four years of coach Dan McCarney's tenure, a period that has produced only eight victories.
It hasn't been easy, but Knighten feels he has remained true to the calling that brought him to Iowa State from Hialeah. Fla.
"It's real easy just to jump on the bandwagon of a winning team," Knighten said. "The reason I came here is I wanted to be part of the turnaround. So it was kind of like a mission to me. I wouldn't be satisfied until my mission was complete.
"Unfortunately, my time ran out," he said. "I just wanted to stick it out. I'm pretty sure I'm speaking for the rest of the guys that came here in '94 with me."
Knighten played some as a true freshman in that winless season, making one tackle and breaking up a pass. Walden quit in early November, and McCarney was hired later that month. He made an immediate impression.
"He was real tough," Knighten said. "He let us know right away he meant business, and I'll never forget that. He let us know from the start that he's not going to tolerate any nonsense. Some players didn't listen, and he got rid of them. That let us know right away that he meant business."
McCarnev also stressed no one would get prefer
ence for a starting job. Everyone, holdovers and newcomers, would be treated the same.
Knighten took that to mean he had better get to work.
"Winter conditioning came shortly after he got here, and I busted my tail. I was first in every drill." Knighten said. "That's how he started looking at me because I was a hard worker. They wanted me to start at the corner spot in 95."
But Knighten blew out a knee, tearing an ACL, before the season started and had reconstructive surgery. His dream of starting had been shattered.
"That was real tough because I had never received a major injury ever before, and I've been playing football and running track all my life," he said. "When it hit me and Doc (Thomas) Greenwald told me I'd be out for a year. I just broke down in tears. I thought I would never be able to play football again."
Knighten missed the 1995 season and played singly the following year. But even during his lowest and most painful moments, he said he never thought about leaving.
"Football is the reason why I'm here, but it's not the entire reason," he said. "If that was taken away from me and I went home, then I was missing out on the football deal as well as the education deal. I didn't see myself excelling in life, so I just stuck it out."
Knighten got back into the regular rotation of defensive backs last season and made 35 tackles. He was looking for more of the same this year, but his hamstrings started giving him problems and Knighten found himself splitting time on the second team at free safety. He didn't even play in the season opener.
Defensive coordinator John Skladany then approached Knighten and asked if he'd consider moving to linebacker, a position Knighten had never played. He has been there ever since.
"He's done a great job," McCarney said. "He's very unselfish."
he as learned the position, Knighten's playing time increased. He had his best game against Nebraska two weeks ago, making nine tackles, and he made five last week at Colorado.
"Actually when I got to linebacker, there wasn't as much running involved so my hamstrings didn't even bother me after a few weeks," Knighten said. "But the last two weeks, I've been coming on and getting some reps in games."
AFL, NFL coaching legend Weeb Ewbank dies at age 91
The Associated Press
More than his two football championships. Weeb Ewbank was a teacher of the game, a friend to his players and a fatherly coach with great passion.
Over the years, you would get to know Webe and see and understand his true love for the game," Joe Namath said yesterday. "It consumed him. The people he worked with, he was always so concerned for. If you knew Webe, you had to like him."
Ewbank, the only coach to win titles in the AFL and NFL, died Tuesday at his home in Oxford, Ohio, at 91.
Namath, the flamboyant quarterback of the New York Jets, was so shaken by Ewbank's death that he chose not to comment Tuesday night. When he finally talked, he spoke of the Jets' closeness with their former coach.
the NFL the following year.
Ewbank's most memorable victory came in the 1969 Super Bowl, when the Jets, spurred by Namath's bold prediction of victory, upset Ewbank's old team, the Baltimore Colts, 16-7. That victory, by the upstart Jets of the AFL, triggered the merger with
"The things I have felt about Webe and the other guys felt ... you see a football and jam it with a nail and the air comes out," Namath said. "You feel very empty. Something is gone, and you are afraid it is not going to be back, and it won't."
The last time Namath saw Ewbank was in the second week of this season when the Jets played Baltimore — now the Ravens.
"That weekend was the alumni get-together, and Weeb was great," Namath said. "He seemed weaker than he did before, but was getting around fairly well, and we talked about football and the Jets.
"He would ask about people who were on the team ... what they are doing. For him just to be able to get from the hotel to the area we were doing things was a strain, but he never let on. He loved the people he had been with."
Hall of Fame quarterback Johnny Unitas, who led Ewbank's Colts to a 23-17 victory against the New York Giants in overtime in the 1958 NFL championship game that is widely considered the league's greatest game, also expressed affection for his coach.
"I consider him the best coach I ever played for." Uunitas said. "He gave me the opportunity to play professional football in Baltimore.
Don Shula, the winningest coach in pro football history, also had great respect for Ewbank.
"He was an important part of my life and helped shape my coaching philosophy." Shula said.
Shula coached Baltimore from 1963-70 after succeeding Ewbank, then guided the Miami Dolphins from
1970-95 before retiring with 328 victories.
"He was an outstanding teacher of the game, and I learned a lot from him when I played for him," Shula said. "In fact, when I replaced him as head coach of the Colts, many of the things I did in Baltimore and then in Miami I learned from him."
Another former Colts player, defensive tackle Art Donovan, said Ewbank was largely responsible for his earning a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
"Any success I've had in pro football is due to him," Donovan said. "He taught me how to play football."
"He took two of the worst teams — the 1954 Colts and in the '60s the Jets—and made them world champs. You can't do any better than that."
Donovan described Ewbank as a little man with a big heart. Ewbank was supposed to be in Baltimore for a banquet today marking the anniversary of the Colts' '1968 victory.
Bill Parcells, the current Jets' coach, admired Ewbank's accomplishments.
"Any of us in football is saddened by the loss of anyone who was so much a part of the league," he said. "He was well-respected in coaching circles..."
Visitation is Friday at Oxford Presbyterian Church in Ohio. The funeral is Saturday in Oxford.

Microsoft forced to alter software
Judge rules in favor of Sun Microsystems
The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Calif. — Microsoft Corp. has been ordered to rewrite parts of the Windows 98 operating system that contain an altered version of the Java programming language that is incompatible with its rivals' software.
The order Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Ronald Whyte also forces the Redmond, Wash.-based software giant to change Internet Explorer 4.0 and other Java-incorporating software, or stop shipping the products within 90 days.
Whyte also wrote that the lawsuit filed by Sun Microsystems Inc. — which originally designed Java — had merit and should be tried in court.
sun claims Microsoft failed to adhere to terms of a 1995 licensing agreement between the two companies. Under that agreement, Microsoft in 1997 began including Java in programs such as Windows 98 and Internet Explorer. But in doing so, it tinkered with the language, effectively creating a Windows-only form of Java that would not work on competitors' operating systems. Conversely, standard Java will not work with Microsoft's systems and software.
Sun originally created Java as a
"universal" language that offered software developers the capability to write a program once and have it run on any number of computer operating systems.
Microsoft claimed its rewritten version simply improved Java, but Sun and some others in the industry said it was an attempt to "pollute" the programming language that challenged Microsoft's dominance and ultimately posed a financial threat to Microsoft.
Whyte's order — which does not involve software that already has been shipped or sold — will not affect most computer users. But the modifications are a windfall for people who program computers, allowing them more flexibil-
itv in the systems they use.
The ruling sends a message to the computer industry that Microsoft's strength can be challenged — at least temporarily — in court.
Paul Maritz, vice president for Microsoft's platforms and applications group, said new shipments of Windows 98 would be modified to comply with the order. He would not estimate the cost of changing the software, other than to say it was "non-trivial" but "well within our capabilities."
Palo Alto-based Sun sued Microsoft last October, seeking the changes and $35 million in damages.
House Republicans endorse Livingston as speaker
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — House Republicans endorsed Rep. Bob Livingston yesterday to succeed Newt Gingrich as speaker and began picking the rest of their leaders for the coming Congress as the rattled GOP looked to recover from an election that left it clinging to a 12-seat House majority.
Livingston, who chairs the House Appropriations Committee, was chosen by voice vote in a closed-door meeting of the 223 House Republicans who will serve in the 106th Congress. With the backing of the majority party, the Louisiana lawmaker is assured election to the job when the new House convenes Jan. 6.
Livingston was unopposed in his bid to become leader of the chamber's Republicans and No.2 in the constitutional line of succession to President Clinton, behind Vice President Al Gore.
House Majority Leader Dick Armey of Texas
was not so fortunate. Three colleagues were challenging Armey — Reps, Jennifer Dunn of Washington, Steve Largent of Oklahoma and J. Dennis Hastert of Illinois.
The leadership elections followed two weeks of intense behind-the-scenes campaigning by candidates for the jobs, and in some cases months of preparation.
"The recent election did not mark a turning away from the Republican Party," Livingston said in accepting the nomination. "But we did fail. ... We didn't run out of ideas. We simply neglected to run on our ideas."
A. SMITH
Gingrich: Said Nov.
6 that he would
resign from post.
He said House Republicans would not betray their philosophy but would lose nothing by
reaching out to the other side.
The 55-year-old Livingston will succeed Gingrich, a Georgian who astonished his colleagues Nov. 6 by announcing that he would retire from his post and from Congress. Three days earlier, Election Day saw the GOP lose five House seats, dashing hopes for big Republican pickups and dashing GOP lawmakers blaming their leaders.
Rep. Ray LaHood of Illinois said Gingrich spoke briefly at the start of yesterday's meeting and called Livingston to the podium, handed him a gavel and said, "Your success as speaker will in large measure be whether people in this room stand together and stand united."
Livingston, a 21-year House veteran, is a conservative known less for ideology than for pragmatism and has already vowed to be a manager who will work with Democrats. His ascension comes as Republicans search for a way to broaden their appeal to voters and heal rifts between the party's ideological social conservatives and its more pragmatic moderates.
WASHINGTON — House Judiciary Committee Republicans are making clear they won't allow President Clinton's defenders to turn the first impeachment hearing into a trial of Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr's tactics.
But Clinton's spokesman said yesterday that as the process begins, it appears Republicans are off on an unfair, unconstitutional "partisan adventure."
In a sterely worded letter, Committee Chairman Henry Hyde told Clinton's attorneys they would not get any more than 30 minutes to question Starr at today's hearing, rejecting a White House request to expand the time to 90 minutes.
Hyde also told the White House it would not be allowed to question Starr about the various controversies surrounding his investigation, such as a judge's inquiry into whether prosecutors leaked grand jury material.
"You will not be permitted to inquire into other matters not bearing on the question of impeachment." Hyde wrote in a letter late Tuesday. "Efforts to utilize these proceedings as a forum to inquire about non germane matters, such as investigations into the conduct of the investigation, that are pending before other bodies, shall not be permitted."
But the White House said the GOP rules were not fair at all.
Speaking to reporters moments
Clinton Investigation
before Clinton left for Asia, White House press secretary Joe Lockhart complained that Republicans were seeking to muzzle the president's defenders while attempting to broaden their investigation beyond its allegations of perjury about a sexual affair.
"They have rediscovered all of their old bad habits, and since they don't like where it's going, they're going to try to find something else," Lockhart said.
White House denied lengthy Starr inquiry
"There's a certain note of hyporysis here, which, when it's unmasked, is that 'we can talk about anything we want,' he said. He called it "fundamentally unfair and disturbing."
white House lawyers had insisted they needed 90 minutes to cross-examine Starr. Democrats claim Starr's conservatism has colored his four-year, multifaceted investigation of Clinton and his referral to Congress detailing 11 possibly impachable offenses, including perjury and obstruction of justice, involving the president's affair with Monica Lewinsky.
meanwhile, Judiciary Committee Republicans expect to receive Clinton's answers to their 81 questions about the president's conduct to land on Capitol Hill as soon as today, sources close to the panel said.

Buildings to close for power upgrades
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Wescoe Hall. Strong Hall, Spencer Research Library and the Campanile will be out of commission tomorrow because power to the buildings will be shut off for electrical upgrades.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said the power outage had been planned and was unrelated to the electrical problems at Watson Library.
At 6 a.m., University of Kansas employees will disable the buildings' power source to let an electrical contractor work in Strong Hall. The contractor will improve the wiring and will install a new transformer.
Porter said that rather than upgrading campus buildings all at once, electrical improvements generally were done on a building by building basis as other renovations took place.
Warren Corman, University architect, said he hoped electrical improvements could be expanded.
Chancellor Robert Hemenay has made electrical improvements the top University funding priority, and Corman will present the University's electrical needs to a Kansas Legislative budget committee next month.
Electrical work inside some buildings still would be needed.
See FOUR on page 2A
He said the state's budget surplus should help the chances for the requested $6.4 million to be approved. The money would redo the decaying portion of the University's electrical distribution system.
Porter said the upgrade would stop many problems the University was experiencing. For instance, when power is cut off in one area, many buildings can be affected. After the improvements, outages could be contained better.

Since the old KUID was retired this fall, officials at Allen Field House have been trying to decide how to deal with the new KUID.
In past years, student-ticket holders have been allowed through the gates at the field house after presenting a current KUID. A sticker reading "Fall 97" proved that the student was enrolled in the Fall 1997 semester, which allowed the student to enter the game with a student ticket.

KUID cannot have stickers affixed to the card. Mary Ann Graham, manager of the KU Card Center, explained why.
"When people use their cards, they put it in a machine," she said. "With stickers on the cards, you have the possibility of a card getting stuck, or a sticker getting caught in a reader."
That leaves Darren Cook, director of operations at Allen Field House, searching for a solution.
the technology, from the Cutting Edge company, also is untested. The Athletics
"Right now, we're looking at the possibility of getting hand-held readers," he said. "There are two problems. One, it's expensive. Two, it's slow."
Department wants to take it slowly with the new system, Graham said.
"We're not sure how long it's been on the market," she said. "Before we go that route, we want to test it. It's not going to be done like the scanners on the buses, where they put them on all of the buses before they
knew if it would work or not."
Cook said that the last thing he wanted to do was slow down the process of getting students into the field house. The plan for next semester is to line up students outside and scan their KUIDs as they prepare to enter the door.
KUID UPDATE
Tomorrow's Kansas men's basketball game against Fort Hays State is the first game at which students must present new KUIDs to be admitted.
"We'll stamp their hands so they can get in quickly," Cook said. "We would go back to the old system at that point and let students in as quick as we can get their tickets."
Cook said that the number of lines allowing students into the field house could jump from three to 10.
The portable readers have not been pur chased yet, Cook said. He hopes to have the

Movie, discussion ends film festival tonight
The First Nations Student Association will conclude its November film festival tonight with Many Nations, One People.
The 40-minute film will be shown at 6:30 p.m. at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union and will be followed by a discussion led by Michael Yellow Bird, assistant professor of social welfare.
Yellow Bird said the film was recorded at last year's League of Indigenous Sovereign Nations conference. He said the film would appeal to those interested in community development, human rights and indigenous peoples.
"The compelling message of this conference is that there is a critical need for indigenous voices in this world," Yellow Bird said.
The film festival began the week of Nov. 9. Yellow Bird said turnout had been OK so far, with each film averaging about 10 to 15 viewers.
He said that the festival encouraged students to get involved in issues, such as the imprisonment of Leonard Pelier.
FNSA will sponsor another film festival in spring.

Deadline pushed back for cleanup project
The environmental cleanup project underneath the University of Kansas power plant will be completed later than expected but should be done by spring.
Mayhew Environmental Training Association began work on the cleanup this summer and set up outdoor tanks to speed up the process. Michael Osterhout, project manager for the association, said the weather was too cool now for the outdoor tanks to be effective. He also said there was more sludge to clean up than the company originally planned.
The association was hired to clean up several large underground tanks formerly used by the University to hold oil reserves. Usage of the tanks stopped and were drained partially 18 years ago when leaks were discovered. They never had been properly cleaned out and closed.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said after the cleanup work was done, the tanks probably would be filled with either sand or concrete.
The delay is not posing any problems to the University and will not cost additional money.

"It is a pretty competitive position." Adkinson said. "They are working to represent KU."
Adkinson said the speaking and organizational skills the assistants used were applicable to life outside of the University of Kansas.
"What's great about this position is the skills that they learn are transferable to any other career," she said.
Seth Hoffman, Lenexa junior, was one of last summer's orientation assistants. He said the training and on-the-job experience would help him this summer with an internship.
His job was a mixture of 11-hour days, lessons about the University and fun experiences with the other orientation assistants and the visitors.

Disorderly conduct leads to drug charges
Police arrested a 22-year-old Lawrence man Wednesday night at a local motel for disorderly conduct and later found a substance believed to be crack cocaine in his possession.
A 20-year-old Days In employee, 2309 Iowa St., told police that about 9:15 p.m., the suspect — arrested earlier this fall for possession of crack cocaine — began acting bizarre and paranoid
Police said the behavior frightened employees and customers.
The employee called police about 9:45 p.m.
"When we approached him, he was acting peculiar," Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler said. "He was fidgeting and looking around with guarded glances."
Lawrence taxi driver robbed and assaulted
While booking the man into the Douglas County Jail, police found 12 grams of a substance they believed to be crack cocaine and $195 in his possession.
"Officers were searching him when they noticed a plastic baggy protruding from the suspect's anus." Wheeler said.
A 40-year-old Lawrence taxi driver was assaulted and robbed Wednesday morning in an alley in the 1700 block of Kentucky Street.
He was placed into the Douglas County Jail at 10:10 p.m. on charges of possession of crack with intent to sell and disorderly conduct, jail officials reported.
By Keith Burner
The incident began about 2 a.m. when the driver, a Lawrence Tax Service employee, picked up the suspect at the Imperial Garden, 2007 W. Sixth St.
The suspect told the driver to take him to 7th and Vermont streets, said Lawrence Police Set. George Wheeler.
The driver told police that the suspect attacked and robbed him.
"They were approaching the destination when the suspect reached up and put his arm around the driver's neck," Wheeler said. "He placed a metal object to the left side of his head and demanded money."
The driver gave the man an undisclosed amount of money.
The man then jumped out of the taxi and was last seen running north from the alley, police said.
Police are looking for a 5-foot-10,
180-pound African-American male with
his hair bound in cornrows. The suspect is believed to be between 20 and
30 years old.
The driver was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Lawrence Taxi Service would not comment.

Four additional states approve tobacco deal
NEW YORK — Four more states embraced the $206-billion tobacco deal yesterday, raising the number accepting the proposal to resolve state claims for the costs of health care for sick smokers to 22.
Michigan, Missouri, Tennessee and New Hampshire are the latest to sign on, and no state so far has said it rejected the deal.
The announcements came as today's midday deadline approached for states to disclose their positions on the settlement.
The cigarette makers said they needed a sufficient number of 46 states that would get money under the settlement to sign if they were to proceed with what would be the biggest U.S. civil settlement. The industry has declined to be more specific on how many states would constitute a sufficient number. Tobacco companies already have settled with four states for a combined $40 billion.
Michigan stands to get $8.5 billion during 25 years under the deal, Tennessee would get $4.8 billion, Missouri $4.5 billion and New Hampshire $1.3 billion.

"It's fairly expensive," he said. "They're $3,195 a piece. Hopefully, we can try it on a trial basis."
If the system fails, Cook would not know who was entering games with a KUID.
"You could come to a game within 3 years of being issued a smart card," he said. "You could drop out, come back a year from now and still get into games without being a student. We're trying to eliminate that possibility."
James Starkweather, Mulvane junior, said he thought it would be great to be able to get into games after he graduated.
"I'd love to come back to games after I graduate," he said. "But it would be unfair to the students who were currently enrolled."
The thought of former students entering men's basketball games on student tickets still hasn't made them more marketable to scalpers.
Scott, a scalper from Overland Park who asked that his last name not be used, said that general admission seats to men's basketball games could fetch anywhere from
$25 to $400.
"You could drop out, come back a year from now and still get into games without being a student. We're trying to eliminate that possibility."
Darren Cook
Director of operations at Allen Field House
"We still wouldn't be interested in buying student tickets," he said. "It would be too much of a hassle."
As long as the portable readers work, Cook said the system could be a more efficient way to know who is getting into games.
"The new system could provide us with more information, and it would be more reliable," he said. "I don't know if in the past there was a lot of abuse. Students could have been using old IDs. With the new system, we'll know better if they are current students."
Four buildings receive electric upgrades
Continued from page 1A
Electrical problems long have been a nuisance to the University because of the age of many buildings, Porter said.
The transformer breakdown at Watson Library has been especially frustrating, Porter said, but was a freak occurrence and not part of the University's fundamental electrical problems.
He said the transformer at Watson was only 18 or 19 years old when it failed.
"It should not have gone bad that soon." Porter said.
He believes that responsibility for the Watson outage could lie with KPL, the Lawrence electricity provider.
He said KPL had been performing maintenance on its system the day before the transformer failed at Watson. He said a power reduction occurred in the area, which might have placed enough strain on the Watson transformer to cause it to fail.
dence that work took place the day before the Watson breakdown.
"The outage itself was not the cause of that problem," Schreiber said. "We suspect it would have happened sooner if they had been related."
He said the causes for KPL outages ranged from severe weather to squirrels being on lines.
Mark Schreiber, manager of community relations for KPL, said his company had looked into its liability in the situation but found that it was a coinci-

Campus housing revokes 'freebie in alcohol policy
By Sarah Hale
Kansan staff writer
Fifty percent of students surveyed who live in University of Kansas housing think the department is doing a good job enforcing the no-alcohol policy.
In order to raise the students' perceptions concerning the consequences of having alcohol in the residence halls, the housing department has decided not to give warnings.
"The survey we gave students just told us that they think they get a freebie," said Ken Stoner, director of student housing. "We were giving warnings so that we could make sure everyone knew the rules. Now we know that they do understand the policy."
Stoner said that the "Core Drug and Alcohol Survey" reported that 87 percent of the residents knew about the policy.
At least 848 residents took the survey, which was part of a city-wide task force report.
A letter outlining the rules and consequences was sent by the housing department yesterday to residents.
The final paragraph stated the option that students could be asked to move out depending on the circumstances.
The policy states, "Effective immediately, residents violating the alcohol policy will always receive a formal sanction associated with the infraction. Sanctions available include termination of contract."
Emily Joseph, Wichita freshman, who lives in Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall, said that she

thought stronger policy enforcement was a good idea.
"If people are going to break the rules, then they need to be prepared to deal with the consequences," Joseph said. "That's just part of living in University housing."
Brooks Johnson, Overland Park freshman and McCollum resident, said that the letter sounded like a good idea, but he questioned how well it could be implemented.
"I just wonder how they will be able to control drinking," he said. "Students come to college to drink, so they're going to do it anyway. If the department tries to tell them to get treatment or attend meetings, it might just be taken as a joke."
Stoner said that the ultimate goal of the letter was to inform students that they would not get any second chances.
Alcohol is prohibited in the KU residence halls and scholarship halls. Violation of this policy will result in punishment.
"The rule has always been there," Stoner said. "Now, we're just eliminating the warnings. It was a wasted step."
Grants to help combat binge drinking
Kansas universities may receive money from health agency
By Jason Pearce
Kansas staff writer
Three universities in Kansas will receive a total of $1.5 million in grants from the Kansas Health Foundation to implement a social-norms approach to curb the number of students who binge drink.
The University of Kansas applied for the grant yesterday — which gives money and assistance for five years in order to establish the program — in response to an alcohol survey that detailed students' alcohol use and abuse.
The recipients of the grants will not be known until early in 1999.
The survey stated that 85 percent of students surveyed said they had used alcohol in the last 30 days. It also said that 58 percent had participated in binge drinking during the last two weeks. The survey classified binge drinking as the consumption of five or more drinks in one sitting.
Greg Meissen, co-project director for the Kansas Health Foundation's Social Norms Project, said that the project had been successful in lowering binge drinking rates at universities across the nation. Meissen works at Wichita State University as a director of the self-help network.
He said that the program took a positive approach to deterrence by pointing out that a majority of students were not binge drinkers or drunk drivers. It includes the use of a positive-media campaign and professionals who assist students with drinking problems.
"It communicates on a regular basis what students are doing right," Meissen said.
He said the program created a positive atmosphere for students and also acknowledged that alcohol-related problems exist.
"The don't-do it approach just doesn't work, he said. "We are trying

to change people's attitudes towards alcohol use."
The program was developed at Northern Illinois University in 1990.
Michael Haines, co-project director and faculty member at Northern Illinois University, said binge-drinking rates have declined by 44 percent since 1990.
"The program is based on the idea that college students are a lot healthier than the whole university community realizes." Haines said.
According to Haines, other schools across the nation have adopted this program and seen positive results. The University of Arizona saw a 26 percent reduction in binge drinking during the last three years. Hobart and William Smith Colleges in Geneva, N.Y., recorded a decrease of 12 percent during two years and Western Washington University saw an 8 percent decrease in one year.
He said that most universities were working to decrease binge drinking under a false norm — that most students get drunk constantly and cause physical and emotional harm.
"Instead of focusing on a few problems, the program focuses on a real solution." Haines said.
No alcohol-related surveys ever have suggested that alcohol prohibition on college campuses results in lower drinking rates, he said.
"This is something where college administrators can be part of the solution by supporting those people doing the right thing." Haines said.
Senate broadens discrimination protection
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
A session of Student Senate rule amending brought an unexpected change in the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities on Wednesday evening.
The Senate added "gender identity or expression" into three articles of the code as a trait for which students cannot be discriminated against. Other categories mentioned in the articles for which discrimination is prohibited include sex, race, color, national origin, religion, ancestry, sexual orientation and disability.
Lisa Braun, Queers and Allies student senator, said there was a difference between the meaning of sexual orientation and gender
identity or expression. Sexual orientation has to do with to whom a person is sexually attracted, and gender identity or expression is how a person expresses society's interpretation of gender. Braun said.
She said the new wording would prohibit a woman from being discriminated against because she seemed too masculine or too feminine.
She said that because the committee's other amend-
Christine Robinson, member of Gay and Lesbian Academic and Staff Advocates and Queers and Allies, said, "It has to do with how you express masculinity, femininity and/or androgyny."
Braun said the addition of the phrase to the code was the next step in a movement toward acceptance of diversity.
AMENDMENTS
Article Two, Section C
The articles of the Code of Student Rights and Responsibilities that were amended are:
Article 1. True Section A
The right of students to be free from harassment or discrimination based on sex, race, color, national origin, religion, ancestry, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, disability, or as specified by law, age, or veteran status, marital or parental status shall not be abridged. Such rights are further enumerated in the University policies on Sexual Harassment, Racial and Ethnic Harassment and the Equal Opportunity and Affirmative Action Grievance Procedures.
Under no circumstances shall an applicant for
admission to the University be denied admission because of race, religion, sex, color, disability national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation gender identity or expression, political affiliation, marital or parental status, and to the extent specified by law, age or veteran status.
Article 10, Section C
ments were being proposed at the Student Senate meeting, she decided to propose these changes as well. She said she had been discussing it with members of Queers and Allies.
A student may not be denied the rights of access to and participation in any University-sponsored or University-approved activity because of race, religion, sex, color, disability, national origin, ancestry, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, political affiliation, marital or parental status, and to the extent specified by law, age or veteran status.
"It's something we've been talking about since September," Braun said.
The addition of the phrase will make other policy changes easier to accomplish in the future, Braun said.
And prospective University of Kansas students could be more comfortable knowing that they are more protected.
"They might feel a little bit safer at the University," Braun said.

KU CLAS made right decision to offer students minor degrees
Students at the University of Kansas have had very little flexibility in the area of minor degrees. If they wanted to pursue a field in addition to their declared major, they could either make it an "emphasis" or become a double-major. For most students, neither of these options were preferred.
An emphasis required almost as many classes as a major, and many students would not be able to afford to take the extra classes — and sometimes semesters — needed for a double-major.
The University of Kansas was the only Big 12 school that did not offer minors. Many students have been frustrated with this policy, and rightly so. A student may have
The University of Kansas was the only Big 12 school that didn't offer minors.
taken foreign-language courses up to the most advanced level, yet this would not be apparent if he or she is majoring in business. If a student were taking such courses at a school that offered a minor, then the student would appear more well-rounded through this certification.
A minor not only helps when the student is in search of employment but also during the time the student studies at the University. The existence of minors allows a student to
pursue an interest in addition to his or her chosen major. These additional courses make for a more well-rounded student who is truly educated in all aspects of liberal arts.
Many students have expressed these sentiments to the administration of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Because of this interest, the college has added minors to its curriculum. It will meet with individual departments to decide on the requirements.
If the introduction of minors at the University of Kansas happens by the year 2000, many students currently in the the college will benefit. An emphasis becomes truly emphasized when it is labeled a minor on a diploma.

Holiday season commences too early
It's already beginning to look a lot like Christmas. Supermarkets, malls and every place in between are gearing up for the marketing bonanza known as "the holidays." Stores are decorating with tinsel and trees, toys are everywhere, and carols are being played in shopping centers.
Even Christmas music is being played by the bells of the Campanile. One might be fooled into thinking that the highest of all holy commercial holidays was right around the corner.
It isn't. It isn't even Thanksgiving yet, and already consumers are being inundated with messages about Christmas. The Lawrence Journal-World published its annual
People should abide by the unofficial rule to start the holidays after Thanksgiving.
gift-giving guide a 10 days before Thanksgiving. In fact, the full-court advertising press has been in effect since shortly before Halloween.
This sort of over-commercialization of the winter holidays is something just short of sacrilege and ought to be stopped. For many years, it was an American tradition to "officially" start the Christmas season on Thanksgiving Day. The Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, which marks Santa's arrival at Macy's Department Store in New
York, is one of the last remaining vesties of this tradition.
The tradition ought to be renewed as quickly as possible. Christmas and Hanukkah deserve more than ruthless exploitation for financial gain.
When consumers can see Santa Claus, electric Menorahs and tasteless plastic manger scenes for nearly three months out of 12, the novelty and wonder of this time of year are completely lost. The holidays are cheapened, and everyone loses.
Although we live in a high-speed era of instant gratification, there are some things that are just worth waiting for. The holiday season is one of them. Remember, just 37 more shopping days until Christmas!

Perspective
Life's work more valuable than just making a living
Whenever I am asked, "What do you intend to do after you graduate?" and I answer, "I intend to be a writer." I am inevitably asked again, "Just a writer? Yes, but what do you intend to do for a living?"
JOHN HYLANDER
We are living in a particularly challenging time. Economic considerations seem to rule all aspects of our lives. As a result, we approach education as a business venture, an investment that is supposed to yield the greatest financial return possible. We put a dollar sign on everything and evaluate the effectiveness of education on the basis of how many dollars people can
make once they are on the other side of the academic assembly line.
I am not comfortable with this way of thinking about education. If my goal in life were only to make money, I would not have come to the University of Kansas. I already was making money before I decided to come here. I came because I had acquired much experience in life, but that experience was fragmented. I needed time and a place to integrate my life experience into a unified whole that would make me a better human being and a better helper of all the other beings with whom I share the planet.
Service to humanity is the purpose of my life and training for the broadest service possible is the reason why I am in school. When I graduate, I want to serve humanity by working as a writer. As for the money, I am not really concerned about it. I have found out that having money does not make my heart beat; not having it does not stop my heart. I have learned that service is the cause and money its natural effect. If I serve people, money will follow. And if I serve a lot of people, a lot of money will follow. So, I have settled this issue.
Cooperating: The world is becoming more and more interconnected and interdependent. There is a great need for people of good will who can help us build bridges where we have so far built walls.
Many observers of the world situation say that we are now living in a period of transition between the Old Age of the 20th century and the New Age of the 21st century and beyond. Everywhere we look, there is change. Ideas, technologies, institutions, people, groups, communities, countries and the whole planet are changing. Sometimes the change is so swift that all we can see is chaos. There seems to be a tug-of-war among globalization and fragmentation, mergers, economic boom and poverty, ecological consciousness and outright environmental abuse, peace and war; wonderful health-care systems and people who die
because they cannot even afford an aspirin. For a great part of humanity, the despair is real, and the impasse frightening.
That is where my role as writer comes in. As we enter the new millennium, we need a group of people who are willing to dedicate their lives to serving humanity as a whole, healing the old wounds, trying out more constructive attitudes and approaches to life, and thus helping to usher in a truly New Age for our planet. Writer Alice Bailey calls this group "The New Group of World Servers," and Marilyn Ferguson calls it "The Aquarian Conspiracy" — a conspiracy of service and love. The members of this group will be engaged in the following activities:
Educating: Public opinion needs to be educated about the new principles that are needed for individual and global transformation.
- Inspiring: Without the vision that inspires, the people perish. Today, more than ever before, we need dreamers who will generate visions that will help us dream and motivate us to work hard to make those dreams come true.
Interpreting; Today, the best of our traditional experts have trouble explaining what is happening in the world. Perceptive people able to untangle the mess are sorely needed.
Organization: There are millions of people of good will in every country, but many of them don't even know it, so they remain inactive. If these people can be discovered, trained for service and put to work on behalf of humanity, our planet will be a transformed place.
Leading: All over the world, there are innumerable needs crying to be met. But for lack of leadership, they are not even recognized. Insightful, courageous and ethical leaders who can help us see these needs and respond to them, and who can lead us in the constructive ways of human interactions are badly needed.
Whether we choose to work as educators, interpreters, inspirers, cooperators, organizers, or leaders, we will never be out of work and therefore never out of money.
So, what do I intend to do for a living after I graduate? Well, there is no doubt about it: I intend to be a writer and exercise many of the functions I have discussed above. And if I starve to death because I am "just a writer," at least I will rest in peace, knowing that I have served humanity with the only gift life has given me; the gift of words.

Future of Social Security threatened by borrowing
Congress and the President have duped the American public again. For the past six years, politicians and elected officials have made reducing the budget deficit their No.1 priority.
They attached such importance to it because the American people felt reducing our national debt was important. And rightly so — the effects of a large national debt are significant. The federal government already spends a huge portion of the budget just to pay the interest on the debt. Having billions of dollars tied up financing the national debt limits the

amount of money banks have to lend to individuals, businesses, etc. Politicians were making some progress toward balancing the budget.
However, this year that all changed. With just a bit of political sleight-of-hand, congressional leaders and the president made the budget deficit disappear. A good economy has lessened the obligations on government and raised tax revenues temporarily, creating what our elected officials are calling a budget surplus. Unfortunately, no matter how many times our leaders say there is a surplus, in reality, the federal debt will increase this year.
They create a surplus out of a debt by borrowing $99 billion from the Social Security trust fund and replacing that money with nonmarketable Treasury securities.
Because of a good economy and low unemployment a lot of people are paying money into the Social Security system. However, in just a few years the baby boomers will begin retiring. By the middle of next century, the majority of the baby boom generation will be taking money from the Social Security system instead of putting money into it.
Because such a large number of people will be retiring, and living much longer lives than their parent's generation did, there will no longer be enough people working to supply money for the Social Security benefits of those taking money out of the system. That money, which has already
That is why we need all those billions of dollars in the Social Security Trust fund. Because we have already spent that money to create a budget surplus, we must find a way to replace those hundreds of billions of dollars. This will force Congress to raise payroll taxes to astronomically high levels in the future or dramatically reduce Social Security benefits.
Reducing benefits is not a politically feasible option. The burden falls on the shoulders of future workers, today's students. At the time when most of us should be accumulating wealth and beginning to do things such as buy homes and begin to save for our children's education, we will be saddled with huge taxes to pay for our parents Social Security.
been spent to create our surplus, is supposed to pay for our parents' retirement and will have to be repaid when they retire.
Republican future Speaker of the House, Bob Livingstone, has recommended that we quit raiding the Social Security trust fund. This would help preserve Social Security for when the baby boomers retire and lessen the burden on future taxpayers.
The debate about how to spend the "surplus" is nonsense. The fact is our representatives are debating how to waste money they don't really have in the first place. Although it would be nice to spend our "surplus" on new programs, we should remember that our national debt is still $5.4 trillion. Instead of thinking up new ways to spend imaginary money, we should focus on how to begin to pay off our national debt and save Social Security.
Simply returning the unsent portion of the Social Security trust fund will not save Social Security. We have to get Congress' hands off it in the first place. Ending this practice would also force our elected leaders to take an honest look at balancing the budget with fewer tricks.
The bottom line is that balancing the budget hurts. It's hard and will cost us some luxuries that we would like to keep. However, if we don't make some small sacrifices now we will have to make some huge sacrifices in a few years, and no amounts of promises and rosy numbers can change that.

Black Student Union auctions off dates
Group's fund-raiser nets estimated $300
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
It started off sounding like a beauty contest. Women and men paraded down a makeshift runway while an announcer described their hobbies, where they were born and what they were wearing.
And then the bidding began.
Black Student Union's "Acquire an Acquaintance 1999" date auction attracted about 150 would-be suitors and observers to the Hashinger Hall Theater last night.
The auction raised funds for the BSU Big 12 Conference, which will take place this February in Colorado.
Program chairs Natalie Lucas, Kansas City, Kan,
sophomore, and Martha Joanah, Dallas sophomore,
said that the admission fee of $1 and the bid money
would go to BSU.
Lucas said BSU expected to make about $300 from the event, but she wouldn't know the exact amount until today or Monday.
Mid-auction, Joanah said she was pleased with the
"I didn't think this many people would show up," she said.
turnout.
Twelve men and 12 women were auctioned off by announcers Adrian Franks, Manchester, Mo., senior, and Tanisha Jones, Wichita sophomore. The crowd placed bids starting at $1 by waving programs or hands in the air.
Students participated on a voluntary basis after being nominated or asked by BSU members. Joanah said some contestants got cold feet as the auction drew nearer.
"It was hard getting people to still do it," Joanah said. "A lot of people got nervous."
Angel Dew, Atchison freshman, was one of the hesitant contestants.
Dew ended up being one of the more popular women contestants. A duel between two bidders ended in her being "sold" for $14.
"It was OK," Dew said afterward. "It wasn't as scary as I thought it was going to be."
Scott Maupin, Olathe freshman, said he came with the intention of buying Tomoe Hino, Elkhart freshman.
"She invited me," he said. "I didn't even know about it."
Maupin won the bidding for Hino and said he had a lot of fun in the process.

Charity gets a hand from law students
By Kelli Raybern
Kansan staff writer
The Black Law Student Association plans to feed between 65 and 70 families this Thanksgiving.
The organization began running its annual Thanksgiving food drive at the beginning of November. With help from people on campus and in Lawrence, it plans to share this holiday with families who otherwise might not afford a traditional meal.
Catina Taylor, Lawrence second-year law student, said he hoped this year's drive will help change community perceptions of lawyers.
Taylor said that the drive to help families in need motivated the association to reach outside the law school for this year's effort.
"A reason for us to get involved is for us to show that we do care about our communities," she said. "It takes away from the misconception that we're just out there getting money."
"Every year we try to make it bigger and better so we can serve more families." she said.
Carlos Lee, the association's president, said that the drive collected food in three main ways.
First, it put shopping carts in Green Hall to collect donations.
Also, first-year law students are divided into sections like
high school homerooms, he said. The sections compete against each other in the food drive.
Finally, Lee said that some professors participated in a "canfor-pass" program to help with the drive.
Donations also come from local businesses, Taylor said.
"If the professor calls on you and you have a can, you don't need to talk in class that day," he explained.
Subway and Yello Sub are donating lunch for the program's volunteers who will be delivering food to local agencies Monday, she said. Perkins and Country Kitchen will donate breakfast for food-sorters on Saturday; Checkers donated grocery carts for collecting food, and Dillons gave the group gift certificates and a discount on turkeys and other purchases, she said.

Rueneka Baptiste, volunteer at Women's Transitional Care Services, said the association was traditionally a big help for families through their organization at Thanksgiving.
"Around" Thanksgiving,
they've been really consistent, a
continual supporter," she said.
"They feed cuite a few noele."
Baptiste said the association usually provided a family with enough food for more than one meal, and often gave paper products, detergent and other items that families need.
"It makes a big difference for people," she said.
Pantries dish out help for hungry KU students
By Pallavi Agarwal Kansan staff writer
Going to college is expensive.
Although not too widespread, some University of Kansas students who have difficulty time making ends meet occasionally depend on community kitchens and food pantries for meals and groceries.
Jean Ann Pike, coordinator of the Lawrence Interdenominational Nutrition Kitchen, 221 W. 10th Street, hoped more students would feel comfortable coming to the kitchen.
"It is especially good for college students with families, the non-traditional students," she said.
The kitchen, better known as LINK, has a no-questions-asked policy. Diners just walk in and help themselves to home-cooked food donated by local churches. No ID or proof of income is required.
The Pelathe Community Resource Center, 1423 Haskell Ave. one of the five food pantries in town, feeds about 1,000 KU and Haskell students each year, said Dave Cade, center director.
Other community kitchens and food pantries patronized by students have requirements.
The Pelathe Center gives away bread, baked items and produce from its community kitchen on Wednesdays and Fridays.
Students interested in picking up food have to furnish an ID and fill out a simple application, he said.
For those picking up groceries from the East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation food pantry, 1600 Haskell Ave., income eligibility and a social security card are two of the requirements.

"If students have enough money to get loans, they have enough money to eat," he said.
Others such as Greg Oakleaf, Efringham sophomore, understood how some students might be short of cash for food.
"It's hard to say," he said. "People who are not here may need the help more than students, but then some students can get pretty broke, too."

Performance at Lied Center fit for a King
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
The Lied Center will present a legendary story about love and cultural respect this weekend.
The Broadway classic The King and I will be staged at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. tomorrow and at 2 p.m. Sunday.
The musical is based on the real story of Anna Leonowens, an English teacher who traveled to the royal palace in Bangkok to teach the 67 children of the King of Siam (the country now known as Thailand).
In the process Anna and the king fall in love with each other, despite their different cultural and social backgrounds.
The Rodgers and Hamsterstein classic won the 1952 Tony Award, one year after it opened in Broadway. The production that is coming to the Lied Center is directed by Daniel Stewart.
THE KING AND I
- When: At 2 p.m. and 8 p.m.
Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday.
* Where: Ued Center
What: The King and I
Cost: $15 and $17.50 for students and from $29 to $35 for the public
"The play is about how this English teacher affected the culture and people in Taiwan in the 1800s," said Jenny Ganuziwiski, member of the musical ensemble.
She said that the performers wore the same Broadway costumes that won a Tony award.
Ganuzziwki joined the company this July, and is her first national tour. She has traveled throughout the country as well as to Mexico and Canada.
She also offered advice for KU stu
dents who plan to work in national theaer production.
"Students need to have big dreams, but they should take every little step," she said. "It is important for them to learn with their experiences."
The University Theatre also is performing Oklahoma!, another musical by the famous duo.
Karen Christillies, director of public relations of the Lied Center, said the performance of The King and I was part of the center's and the University Theatre's weeklong celebration of Rodgers and Hammerstein.
Christies said the fact that both productions were scheduled so close together was a coincidence. But it gave the opportunity for the Lied Center and the University Theatre to emphasize one of their goals, which was creating more cooperation between the major campus theatrical resources.

Band not keen on defining style
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
During the '90s, the Lawrence music scene has provided many chances for local bands to develop and grow, and the band Virginia Keen has been trying to take advantage of those opportunities.
Virginia Keen, which has been together for two years, is scheduled to play the opening act for The Deal, a band that covers Grateful Dead songs, tomorrow night at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St.
Jacki Becker, promoter at Pipeline Productions,
booked Virginia Keen to open at 10 p.m.
and bassist; and Andy Bricker, drummer.
Becker said that she thought it would be a good combination to mix the Grateful Dead style of The Deal with the bluegrass style of Virginia Keen.
The members of Virginia Keen said that it would be difficult to describe specifically the type of music they played.
"We can go from a bluegrass style of music to a funky dance style of music." Rubis said.
Virginia Keen is composed of 5 musicians: Mike Maher, vocalist and guitarist; Chris Beightel, mandolinist and guitarist; Meredith Rubis, violinist and vocalist; David Slade, Lawrence junior
The band combines the unique sounds of the mandolin and violin to create its own personal style of music.
Slade said that the members of the band all had different tastes in music during their childhood years, which influenced the band's sound today.
Virginia Keen plays at the Jazzhaus, 926 New Hampshire St., on the last Wednesday of each month. The band also has played at other bars, including Harbour Lights, 1031 Massachusetts St.
"Some of are best shows were at Harbour Lights because of the friendly crowd." Slade said.
The band released one album called Little Easy Chair in 1997 and wants to release another album in the near future.
Left: Chris Beightel, Andy Bricker, Mike Moher, David Stilde, and Meredith Rubis are members of the band Virginia Keen. The band is scheduled to play at 10 p.m. tomorrow at the Bottleneck, 737 New Hampshire St. Continued photo
"I hope that we put another album out so I could supplement my income through the band," said Beightel.
In addition to releasing a second album, the band members said that they wanted to do a better job promoting themselves.

Enemy full of typical action-movie antics
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Kansan movie critic
Will Smith makes the leap to dramatic roles in Enemy of the State, which for him means making a movie that has nothing to do with aliens.
He doesn't even have a rap single on the movie's soundtrack. Oh, the horror!
**Enemy of the State instead is about the U.S. intelligence communities' efforts to provide wall-to-wall surveillance of every facet of American life. So desperate are they to record every phone call, conversation and traffic jam that the director of the National Security Agency (Jon Voight) orders the assassination of a congressman (Jason Robards) who has the power to crimp their projects through a single vote.
The assassination, committed in broad daylight at a Maryland park, turns out to have been caught on film by a wildlife enthusiast (Jason Lee). Before the evil secret agents can silence him with death, he makes a copy of the tape, which curiously finds its way into the Christmas shopping bags of Washington labor attorney Robert Clayton Dean (Smith).
"I hate doing this at Christmas," Voight's bureaucrat grumbles upon hearing the turn of events. "This" refers to a slew of blackmailing endeavors that his department employs to extract the tane from Mr. Jigey-Wit it.
Dean's life hits a tallspin. Voight's agents

Gene Hackman final hour into the movie as a former employee of the National Security Agency, but his connection to Dean's dilemma is tenuous at best.
At this point, *Enemy of the State* degrades into a typical action movie.
MOVIE REVIEW
typical replete with the same old car chases and explosions that we've seen before, not to mention a shootout between mafia hit men, secret agents and the FBI that plays like an outtake from Face/Off.
Smith does a decent job keeping his Fresh Prince schtick under control, but he's relegated to playing sidekick to Hackman's ex-agent in the movie's second half. Personally, I think that Hackman, fine actor that he is, is much too old to be playing these kinds of daredevil anti-heroes.
TO THE ROOM
Will Smith goes undercover with an ex-intelligence agent (Gene Hackman) in the thriller *Enemy of the State*. The movie also stars Joan Voight, Jason Robbins and Gabriel Byrne. Contributed photo
**Enemy of the State truly shines in its earlier scenes as director Tony Scott (Top Gun) stages his film as a thriller with a keen sense of humor. One of the movie's best bits has the surveillance
agents watching Dean's home on videotape, drinking juice made from their target's stolen blender. But moments like that are few and far between.
Expensive Star Wars trailer is movie enough for some
By Chris Fickett and Jeremy Doherty Kansan staff writers
Today, 20,000 copies of the new Star Wars movie preview will be released nationwide, but University of Kansas students might not be flocking to theaters like Star Wars fans in other cities.
The two minute and 10 second preview, known as a trailer, was shown at 75 selected theaters on Tuesday, but Southwind 12 Theater, 3433 Iowa St., probably will not show the trailer today.
In Los Angeles, two-thirds of a 500 person audience walked out on the feature presentation, The Siege, starring Denzel Washington, after the preview for Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace was shown.
In other cities, Star Wars fans paid up to $10 a ticket to see the trailer, only to leave before the movie started.
But local movie house operators aren't expecting big crowds in Lawrence today.
B. J. Smith, booth manager at Southwind 12, said that the theater expected the trailer to arrive today
but that it probably would not be shown in front of any titles until Thanksgiving weekend.
Nick Guhan, general manager for Southwind 12 Theaters, said that he did not think that local moviegoers would pay for a ticket and then leave after seeing the Star Wars trailer.
"It could happen," Guinan said. "I don't think I pay $4 for a ticket and walk out."
Some KU students saw the preview on the Internet.
Andrew Morgan, Leawood sophomore, said that his roommate took a break from watching pro wrestling to log on to the Star Wars Web site.
The trailer gave a quick glimpse of actors Liam Neeson, Ewan McGregor and Samuel L. Jackson, who reportedly will play Jedi knights in the upcoming film.
Morgan said the preview was impressive and appealed to cost a lot of money.
The Associated Press and Reuters contributed to this story.
"My roommate said that George Lucas and that amount of money together should be illegal," he said.
Cowboy Junkies play it mellow
By T.R. Miller
Kansan music fiend
Cowboy Junkies' vocalist Margo Timmins expressed her concern that the band has gained the reputation for melancholy music. The band's most well-known numbers — "Commerz-Dienst"
"Common Disaster" and "Crescent Moon"
and "Crescent Moon" — are a somber pair and its rendition of Lou Reed's "Sweet Jane" seems to slow the tempo and dampen the beat. Its latest release, "Miles. From Our
Home" sports some honest rock fare, proving this band to be more than just another angst-ridden group.
"The Cowboy Junkies played several cuts from the new album, including the title cut and my personal favorite, "Darkling Days." Guitarist Michael Timmins was the star for the first half of the show. Armed with two newly purchased guitars, which he bought in Lawrence, Michael gave the band a stormy

presence with his keen improvisation skills. This sweet, dry guitar sound played a lovely duet to his sister's undeniably angelic voice.
The band took care to touch on some tried- and true fan favorites. A strong and touchingly modest rendition of "Misguided Angel" inspired the crowd into a unison sway. "Crescent Moon" and "Sweet Jane" were particularly moving, thanks to the harmony between Margo Timmins and the blonde, pixie-cut back-up singer.
After a shaking encore, the Cowboy Junkies returned to the stage, played one more song and extended an invitation to all interested to stop by and say "Hi." Considering Liberty Hall was sold out before the show, I predict the band could have played an even larger venue, but the Cowboy Junkies are perfect for an intimate singsong in downtown Lawrence.

Suddenly, there came a tapping...
It's been about a year since big business nestled down near The Raven Bookstore
story by karen lucas photos by graham k johnson
Distinctly I remember it was in the bleak December—Dec. 6 to be exact—last year that Borders, 700 New Hampshire St., opened down the street from The Raven Bookstore, B E. Seventh St. Although Raven co-owner Pat Kehde claims to have had an all-time record in sales that day, she admits sales have dropped a bit since then.
THE RAVEN BOOKSTORE
"I like to support local business, and I think The Raven has been an important part of the community." laura howard administrative assistant
The Raven, never flitting, still is sitting, still is sitting:
BOOKSTORE
While many small independent bookstores struggle to coexist with national chains, a locally owned book shop in Lawrence tells a different story.
competition from the national chain store. The Raven has maintained a niche in the local market. "They have a tremendous
selection," said Andi Powell Phillips, Lawrence graduate students. "It's bigger than any collection you'd find in a chain store."
The Raven Bookstore, 8 E. Seventh St., has maintained a niche in the local market since Borders Books, Music & Cafe opened last December less than a block away at 700 New Hampshire St.
"The Raven is wanting to be a place where people can find good books and good advice and information about books in an atmosphere that's like someone's private library," said Kehde, co-owner of The Raven.
Borders, on the other hand, could be considered more of a destination place.
said Lisa Bakke,
Lawrence Borders
general manager.
"Customers see Borders as a place to go for entertainment," Bakke said. "Some people come for two to three hours. They look at books. They listen to music. They stop for something in the cafe."
While Borders is a full-line bookstore that also carries CDs and videos, The Raven specializes in mysteries, fiction, and regional and local-interest books. It also sells books on subjects ranging from gardening to gender issues.
Its mystery collection includes British and Canadian imports, which are
difficult to find elsewhere, said Mary Lou Wright, co-owner of The Raven.
"They have a tremendous selection," said Audi Powell Phillips, Lawrence graduate student. "It's bigger than any collection you'd find in a chain store."
When Borders opened Dec. 6, loyal patrons gave The Raven an excellent sales day.
"On that day, we had our all-time record day in sales," Wright said.
Kehde agreed.
"It was really gratifying," she said. "It seemed like people made a very deliberate statement."
Kehde said sales have dropped a little bit since then, but would not give specific numbers.
One of The Raven's loyal customers is Laura Howard, administrative assistant
at the department of social and rehabilitation services.
"Ilike to support local business, and I think The Raven has been an important part of the community." Howard said.
Although customers like Howard support the Raven, they also patronize Borders.
Stan Lombardo, professor of classics, also shops at both stores.
"I buy many more books at The Raven than I buy at Borders," he like. "A place like
But not all customers who have shopping before at The Raven still visit.
sale." A place like this (Borders) is good for its convenience. If you need something right away, it's a good place."
"I like to browse around and visit with folkks in the cafe." Howard said.
"Ihaven't been there since Borders opened," said Timothy Riling, Lawrence attorney. "You just look around the store and see there's a lot more here."
But Riling still speaks favorably of The Raven.
"I hope it stays," he said. "You don't want the little guy overcome by the big guy."
Along with its hard-to-find titles and faithful clientele, The Raven is known for its handwritten book recommendations. Throughout the store, one can find yellow recommendation slips posted on the shelves.
Kehde's recommendation for Joanna Stratton's "Pioneer Women" reads: "Fascinating diaries of women's lives in pioneer Kansas. Some of these writings were found in an attic in Topeka."
In the fiction section, another employee wrote: "Michael Malone's 'Handling Sin' is a very funny book about a man's search through the South for his crazy father. It's fast-paced, touching and loaded with unforgettable characters."
Just recently, Borders introduced its own handwritten book recommenda-
"I've read several books that I probably wouldn't have chosen, but I did because of their recommendations," she said.
Phillips spoke enthusiastically of The Raven's book critiques.
"Customers see Borders as a place to go for entertainment. Some people come for two to three hours. They look at books. They listen to music. They stop for something in the cafe."
lisa bakke borders general manager
tions, which it encourages from both employees and customers. Borders also has a display shelf with monthly staff selections.
Although Kehde and Wright are pleased with how their store has coexisted with Borders, they are not worry-free. Competition from Internet booksellers like Amazon.com poses a new challenge for The Raven
"I think it's a threat, but I don't think it's a fatal threat," Kehde said.
Though her store is doing business on the Internet, Bakke expressed a reservation.
When it comes to dealing with the competition on the Internet, Borders does have one advantage over The Raven. This fall, it began selling books online at www.borders.com
"I don't think the Internet shopping experience can compete with actually being able to look at the book and take it home right away." Bakke said.

The No. 8 Jayhawks face the Fort Hays State Tigers, a Division II team, at 7:05 tomorrow, and the Jayhawks hope that this opponent will challenge them as much as their previous two opponents.

"it's kind of a step down," said freshman point guard Jeff Boschee. "But again Coach Williams isn't going to let that happen. He's not going to let us get down. He's going to be pumped up like any other game so I expect it to be a good game."

Kansas coach Roy Williams said that Fort Hays State (2-0) would be excited to play at Allen Field House and that the Jayhawks (2-0) had to be prepared for them.
"They're all fired up when they come in," Williams said. "We have to match their enthusiasm. It's a time of excitement for them, and hopefully, it will be for us, too."

In its first two games Kansas has trailed at the half, a trend it hopes to end tomorrow. The Jayhawks were behind at the half, 32-28, against Gonzaga and again, 26-19, against Pennsylvania. Williams said that Bosche told him he should start yelling before the game instead of at halftime to get the team fired up.

"Coach Williams gets us pumped up a little for the second half in the locker room," Bosche said. "He kind of got on us at Pennsylvania."
Boschee has played impressively in his first two college games, but Williams said that he was more impressed with his second-half play than his play in the first half.

'Hawks head to Hawaii tourney
Women's basketball team hopes to rebound from loss
By Sam Meltingen
Kansan sportswriter
The coach talked about the things her team did wrong, she talked about the things that North Carolina did right, but mostly, she talked about the future.
Marian Washington stood at the podium, answering questions in the media room at Mackey Arena after the Kansas women's basketball team lost its much-anticipated season opener. 76-58, to North Carolina.
"I'm just looking forward to our next game," she said.
The No. 17 Jayhawks take on Massachusetts in the Hawaiian Regent Classic in Honolulu. Tip-off is set for 6:30 tonight, central time.
The UMass game is the first of three that Kansas will play this weekend. Minnesota will be the Jayhawks opponent at 5 p.m. tomorrow, and the Jayhawks will take on
Hawaii, the tournament host, at 9 p.m. Sunday.
UMass is 1-1 this season, beating St. John's 83-66 last Friday and losing to Boston College, 72-66. Monday.
The Minutewomen are led by three returning starters: Tez Kraft, Kelly Van Huisen and Alison MacParland. Kraft is a 5-foot-11 senior forward and has averaged 14 points and 11 rebounds in her first two games. She scored 14.2 points per game last season.
Van Huisen is a 5-8 junior guard, who averaged 15.2 points per game last season. Through two games this season, Van Huisen is averaging 15.5 points and 5.5 assists per game.
Minnesota may have a long season ahead with just one starter returning from last year's 4-23 team. The Gophers won their season opener, beating Illinois State, 67-63 on Tuesday. Sonja Robinson and Jackie Tate led Minnesota with 10 points each.
MacFarland, a 5-8 junior forward, scored 10.1 points per game for the Minutewomen last season. She's scored 11 and 14 points in the team's first two games.
Hawaii (0-0) returns three starters from a 24-4 team last season but has struggled to replace Kodak All-American guard Nani Cockett.
"Unless you can find another Nani Cockett," head coach Vince Goo said, "it's impossible to replace her value to the team and the kind of talent she had."
Goo will look for several players to fill the void. Forward Kylie Page, along with guards B.J. Itoman and Raylene Howard, are expected to help fill in after Cockett's departure.
"I'm not too big on sun-bathing," she said. "I don't let them out in the sun for more than an hour and a half, it drains your energy. We'll have a day for them where they can go to the beach and that kind of thing, but other than that, we're there for basketball."
It would be easy for the Jayhawks to push basketball to the back of their minds as they take in the atmosphere in paradise, but Washington said she won't let that happen.
"If they come in at another level, then perhaps we can lessen the loss of Nani," Goo said.

Williams ready for Earl case to finish
By Matt Friedrichs
Kansan sports editor
The NCAA barred Louisiana State's men's basketball program from postseason play and reduced the number of scholarships the university will be able to offer Wednesday.
But coach Roy Williams said yesterday at his weekly news conference that he knew very little about the problems.
"I'm glad it's almost over with, and I
I am glad it is almost think its a bad situation," Williams said. "I wish it had never happened, but it did."
Earl transferred to Kansas after attending LSU for one semester. He became eligible to play for the Jayhawks last spring and his eligibility will end this spring unless he successfully appeals for another year.
Earl: Transferred to Kansas after a semester at LSU.
The NCAA sanc
tioned Louisiana State because a booster paid Earl about $5,000.
Williams said he spoke with NCAA officials about Earl, as is the procedure with all transfers.
Earl also spoke with the NCAA,'and Williams said he told Earl one thing before the interview.
"You have to tell the truth," Williams said.
The NCAA granted Earl immunity in return for his testimony about improprieties at Louisiana State.
Earl said that Johnny Jones, a former assistant coach at Louisiana State who now coaches at Memphis, gave him cash payments, but the NCAA did not find any evidence to show the Louisiana State coaches were involved in wrongdoing.
Williams responded to critics who say he should never have taken Earl.
"I should know a lot of things that I don't know," Williams said. "All I know is that a kid called and said he'd like to have a second chance to come to KU. He made some mistakes, but he's not the only one," he said.
Earl did not make a statement yesterday.
"What can Lester say," Williams said.
"It's old news. It's done. It's a sad day for him. It's a much sadder day for the LSU program."
Williams also said he was sympathetic for LSU coach John Brady, who now must deal with NCAA probation related to a player he never even coached — much like Williams had to in his first season at Kansas.
Jayhawks to face Cyclones in battle to avoid Big 12 cellar
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas is not like Texas A&M and Texas, duking it out for the top spot in the Big 12 South. Kansas simply is playing for pride and respect.
But this time, unlike last year's final game, the players are not playing for a coveted sixth win to make the team eligible for a bowl bid.
The Kansas football team travels to Ames, Iowa, to kick off their final game of the season at 1:00 p.m. tomorrow against the Iowa State Cyclones.
"Everybody's a little bit down, but we're trying to get a win, we're not trying to have a worse record than last year," defensive back Greg Erb said. "We're trying to prove that we still are a good team. Send the seniors out with a win."
A victory tomorrow will prevent the Jayhawks from finishing dead last in the Big 12 Conference, giving the that title to the Cyclones.
and ended the season 5-6.
Things played out a bit differently this season.
After winning two of their first seven games, the Kansas football team has been picking up wins late in the season to boost its record.
"Well, to win the final two to get to a 5-6 record, would help build momentum as well as stop some of the frustration this team has been experiencing." coach Terry Allen said.
Kansas began with a 4-1 record last season and won one of the final six games
A win tomorrow will mean the team has matched last year's loss-loss tally.
But it difficult for some team members who know that although they are far and away a better team than last year, their record will not reflect that.
"It's really disappointing knowing a lot of those games we were in it, and one mistake, one call, one play cost us the games," Erb said. "It's real frustrating. It gives us something to build on, but you don't want to think about that, you want to win now, you want to go to a bowl."
The competition in the Big 12 was stiff
this year, Kansas played five games against ranked opponents, upsetting the Colorado Buffaloes. 33-17.
Sophomore running back David Winbush needs 124 yards to surpass 1,000 yards for the season.
Winbush, who amassed 338 yards during his freshman season, came close to surpassing that total during the Colorado game with 268 yards.
If Winbush gains those 124 yards, he will become the fourth sophomore in Kansas history to accomplish that feat.
But Allen said, in the bigger scheme of things, the victory was far more important than Winbush gaining those vards.
"For us to win the football game, we are going to have to rush the ball and rush it well, and obviously David will be our feature in doing that," he said. "However, we are not going to rush him 40 times just to try to get him over 1,000 yards. By doing that we may jeopardize our chances of being successful."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 20)
There's no shortage of money in your life this year. If you have to take a class to learn how to do that, start around January. In February, you'll be more interested in stuff that's falling apart in your home. April is very busy, but luckily, you've had some rest. That's what you should be doing through most of March. In August, it looks as if everything just sort of comes together. You'll probably get what you've always wanted. In September, your friends keep egging you on to try something you've been talking about. Take them up on the challenge.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Your ideas are starting to emerge triumphant. It's almost as if judgment day is coming. As an Aries, of course you take a firm stand for liberty and justice, and you're about to be vindicated in ways that you could never have done all by yourself.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
There are rumors going around. They're all true from somebody's perspective, but which one is really true? You get to help sort that out, and, of course, you have your own agenda, too.
Gemini: Today is a 5.
You might be gathering more information than you can handle. Some of it might not seem to make sense. The truth isn't always the same as the facts. Keep looking for the facts by gathering up as many people's truths as you can, and you'll see.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
The sun is almost into Sagittarius. Venus, Pluto, the moon and Mercury are there too, in your solar sixth house, indicating health and service to others. Since Cancer is the sign of the chef, maybe you'll be cooking during the upcoming holidays. Take advantage of conditions and plan a menu that's health oriented.
Leo: Today is a 6.
People want to clear the air. Perhaps you can put work on hold and take care of these other, more personal, matters. You're in a good position to deal with some of the emerging problems, so make time to do it now. It'll be more difficult the longer you wait.
Mercury, your ruling planet, is in Sagittarius, inspiring you to mess around with things at home. It's going retrograde tomorrow. That tends to push us back to something we've done before, or to complete old business. Right now, however, Mercury's direct.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
Virao: Today is a 5.
Libra: Today is a 6.
The emphasis is on education again. You're either teaching, learning or both. You assimilate information, then turn around and dispense it almost as quickly as you got it. You're like a conduit for information, and that's certainly going to be the case today.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Money looks good today. If you can find it, you can have it. It's almost as if searching for a buried treasure. Do the digging, and you could be richly rewarded. The biggest barrier to your success is the possibility of getting distracted by love.
It'll be hard to keep a secret today. Everybody else is buzzing with the latest news. Gad got involved. The cards are not all on the table yet. Somebyn is holding something back. That's your best plan for the day
图
If you want to start new projects, you had better get going now, especially concerning your career. A request for a promotion or raise is much more likely to go through today than tomorrow. Make your case. The odds are good that you'll get what you want.
Aquarius : Today is a 6.
It looks as if what you've been doing has been working. Even if it hasn't turned out exactly as planned, at least you're getting through it. And there's a party, starting tomorrow.
男女同堂

Pisces: Today is a 5.
An older person simply doesn't understand what you're talking about. You have to say it over and over again as clearly as you can until all of a sudden — ta da. Learning takes place. That's the moment every teacher waits for. Be persistent. This is going to be a tough nut to crack, especially if the person outranks you.

Accomplished athlete signs with Kansas baseball team
High school senior Clay Wheeler signed a national letter of intent with the University of Kansas baseball team yesterday. Coach Bobby Randall said that Wheeler, a 6-1 right-handed pitcher/ouftierder from Reeds Spring High School in Missouri would contribute immediately.
"Clay is a remarkable athlete as well as a remarkable student." Randall said. "He will be a big part of the Kansas baseball program in the near future."
Wheeler, a three-sport letter winner, garnered various honors in football, basketball and baseball. On the diamond, Wheeler was named Branson-Tri-Lake Player of the Year, first team all-conference, first team all-district and first team all-state last season. He hit .520 with seven homers and 45 RBI en route to being named team MVP. On the mound, Wheeler went 5-2 last season with 85 strikeouts and a 3.50 ERA.
Five rowing team members set course record at regatta
Five members of the Kansas rowing team set a new course record last Saturday at the Marathon Rowing Championships regatta in Natchitoches, La.
The five students, competing in the Mens' Open Four, completed the 26.2 mile race in 3 hours 14 minutes and 98 seconds, roughly three minutes faster than the previous record set by Rice. The coxswain was Megan McManiagal, Holton freshmen. The rowers were Mike Voucolo, Oceantownsch, N.J., junior; Kevin O'Rourke, Frontenac senior; Nick Lehm, St. Louis, Mo.; sophomore and Rob Zechmann, Lincoln, Neb., junior.

Kansas to hold cross country finals
By Brad Hallier
Kanson sportswriter
Kansas seems to play host to anniversarv championships.
In 1988, Kansas was the host of the 50th Final Four, which was held at Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Mo.
This year marks the 60th anniversary of the NCAA Cross Country Championships, and Kansas will be the host of the meet on Monday at Rim Rock Farm.
Emporia State will serve as cohost for the Division-II championships the same day at Rim Rock Farm.
Rim Rock Farm is one of the tougher, and more unique, NCAA courses in cross country. Many courses are situated on golf courses, but Rim Rock Farm is solely a running course and has challenging hills, inclines and turns.
Kansas runner Brian Jensen, who was the only Jayhawk to qualify for the championships, said the course was just as tough physically as mentally.
“It’s mentally tough because you run by the finish so many times,” he
said. "Physically, because the hills take you out of rhythm. The footing is hard, too. But it's the same for everyone."
Kansas coach Gary Schwartz told the difficulty of the course was hard to measure, but it challenged runners.
The six-mile course has several unique touches that runners and spectators don't see at other courses, such as the covered Oak Holler Bridge. The competitors run by the finish line three times before the stretch run, twice on the final mile. Runners also run by six different ponds and a cemetery.
In addition to serving as home to the Jayhawks and this year's championships, Rim Rock Farm also was the location of the Kansas high school classes 6A and 5A state cross country meet. This year, the high school races were held on Halloween, and there was plenty of rain. With the rain and four races that day, the course was ripped up.
Since then, Bob Timmons, owner of Rim Rock Farm, said there had been a lot of work done on the course
CHAMPIONSHIPS

1:30 p.m. - Men's Division-I race (10K)

to prepare it for the championships.
"There was all kinds of damage to the parking area and the course," he said. "It does look pretty good right now. There are areas where there needs improvement, but if there is no more rain, it will be in good shape."
Timmons is a Kansas cross country coaching legend. He coached the Kansas men for 22 seasons. He led the Jayhawks to two conference titles and six team appearances at the championships.
He designed the course at Rim Rock Farm himself and tends to it.
"We have used special turf products that tends to absorb moisture that I believe they use on baseball fields," he said. "We have placed wood mulch in wet areas. We've had a lot of help getting this ready. It has been really hectic this week but not frantic. Again, the only concern is that everything will be fine unless it rains."

Schwartz said no matter how much it rains, the championships will be held Monday.

Kansas volleyball strives to attain winning season
There are still goals to be met for the Kansas volleyball team.
With four matches left this season, including one tonight at Missouri, the 14-14 Jayhawks are looking for their first .500-plus season in four years.
"A winning season is still out there for us," said Coach Ray Bechard. "Our seniors want to go out with a .500 or better season, and that would be huge because they haven't had one vet."
Bechard said the Jayhawks, who battle Iowa State tomorrow night in Ames, hoped to move up in the Big 12 Conference standings this weekend.
"There is still an opportunity to finish sixth or seventh in the conference." Bechard said. "We were ranked tenth in the preseason, and it was a goal for us all season long to improve over each week."
The Jayhawks had the week to polish their skills after a
five-match losing streak.
Bechard said the Jayhawks had two good practices Monday and Tuesday to prepare for their matches this weekend.
"We had some success against these teams last time," Bechard said. "We reviewed some films and talked about our goals for the rest of the season. We're trying to stay sharp on the little things that you sometimes lose track of at this point in the season."
Earlier this season, the Jayhawks beat Missouri and Iowa State 3-0 each in a Big 12 weekend at Allen Field House.
Despite their previous success, middle blocker Anne Kreimer said the Jayhawks wouldn't take either team lightly.
"Missouri has been playing well lately," Kreimer said. "They took Nebraska to five games and K-State to four games. Iowa State is fishing for a win any way they can get one. It's always tough competition on the road."
The Jayhawks also have one
more opportunity to defeat a ranked opponent, which has been a goal all season.
"We would like to finish the season with four wins." Kreimer said. "If we play to our ability, we come so close. We just need to get over that hump. We've had the opportunity and have come up short."
Missouri, 12-17 overall, defeated 3-25 Iowa State last weekend, improving to 3-13 against Big 12 opponents. Iowa State has won just one conference match, defeating Oklahoma on Oct. 17.
Bechard said the Jayhawks would employ different strategies against the two teams.
"There are some match-up situations against Missouri that we have to be aware of," Bechard said. "Some of their blocking lineups are more physical than others. Against Iowa State, our confidence level will be the difference and how we impact them early in the match. If we control the tempo and the rhythm, we should have some success."
Fort Hays State next opponent for Jayhawks

"We haven't played Alvamar Technical." Williams said. "We've played some pretty doggone good teams. We may be ahead of where we were last year at this stage."
Williams said he was looking at tomorrow's game as a good learning experience for the team.
"We're trying to get our entire team well, and that means individual performances as well as队," he said.
The Jayhawks have to be ready to play in order to avoid a possible upset, said center Eric Chenowith.
"You've got to come out ready for those games," Chenwith said. "We're going to come out with the same enthusiasm as if we were playing North Carolina. We're going to work on ourselves. We're not going to think about the next game. We're going to go out there and get a lot better."
The Tigers may have a familiar look to them. Coach Chad Wintz graduated from Kansas and was an assistant coach for Eddie Fogler, who like Williams, was an assistant coach to North Carolina's Dean Smith.
The game will be the second meeting between the two schools. Kansas won the first contest 93-55, on Dec. 31, 1994 in Allen Field House.

Chargers poised to defeat Chiefs this weekend
The Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — Talk about a comedown.
The Kansas City Chiefs were expected to contend for the Super Bowl, or at the very least the AFC West title. Yet here they are, mucking around at the bottom of the division with the San Diego Chargers.
In the span of a week, the Chiefs could go from their embarrassing meltdown Monday night against Denver to sole possession of last place in the division. That's providing the Chargers can muster more than the six points they've averaged in getting ripped three straight times by Kansas
KC
What once seemed like a sure Chiefs victory will be a mat c h - u p
times by Kansas City.
between teams with 4-6 records. Sunday's game at Qualcomm Stadium will be as notable for who's missing as for who shows up.
Chief among them is Derrick Thomas, a Pro Bowl linebacker who's beaten up on Chargers quarterbacks for years. He'll serve a one-game suspension imposed by the team for committing three of Kansas City's five personal fouls in the final minutes of Denver's 30-7 victory.
Linebacker Wayne Simmons, who had one personal foul and wasn't playing well anyway, was waived. Owner Lamar Hunt said their loss of poise disgraced this organization, as well as the community.
And to think the Chargers were having problems with rookie Ryan Leaf's immaturity and poor play.
After coaching the Chiefs to 13-3 records in two of the last three years, Marty Schottenheimer is trying to reverse the worst stretch under his stewardship. After opening the season 4-1, they've lost five straight for the first time since 1988, the year before Schottenheimer and general manager Carl Peterson came aboard. Schottenheimer's first year was the last time the Chiefs were 4-6.
Not even the Chargers, who dropped their last eight of 1997, have lost five straight this year. They do, after all, have the NFL's top-ranked defense, led by Junior Seau.
But just when the Chargers offense can't afford to get any more anemic, running back Natrone Means sustained a hairline fracture in his left foot in last Sunday's 14-13 defeat of Baltimore and will be out at least three weeks.
"There's no question this team is lacking in confidence right now," said Chiefs linebacker Donnie Edwards, who's from the San Diego area. "We're in disarray. And there's only one thing that's going to help our confidence. That's to win a game."
"I feel quite sure when San Diego looks at Kansas City, they say, 'Well, this is the Chargers' time, we've got the Chiefs in disarray, they're injured, Derrick Thomas won't be available," Schottenheimer said. "They'll have reason, I would think, for some optimism in that regard."
The Chargers look at it as a good opportunity, but they also know the Chiefs want to atone for Monday's ugliness.
On Sept. 20 at Kansas City, Means ran for 165 yards, a regular-season career-high that included a 72-yard touchdown, and San Diego's defense played well enough to win. But the Chargers lost 23-7 because Leaf had the worst game ever by a Chargers quarterback, completing just 1 of 15 passes for 4 yards, with two interceptions and three fumbles.
Leaf will sit for the second straight week while Craig Whelan will go for his second win in nine NFL starts.
Bishop receives pregame accolades
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Michael Bishop enters the regular-season finale as a Heisman contender and the spark for an unbeaten team that is ranked No. 2 in the nation.
In short, he's all the things Corby Jones might have been if not for an inured toe.
The quarterbacks, both who wear No. 7, will be the featured performers when No. 2 Kansas State (10-0, 7-0 Big 12) meets No. 19 Missouri (7-3, 5-2) tomorrow.
"I've played a half-season, and he's had a full season, and he's played a great season," Jones said. "He's had a better year than I did."
Maybe a better year than any college football player in the country. Miss-
souri coach Larry Smith has said that if he had a Helsman vote, he'd give it to Bishop.
"He is the player you have to stop to have a chance to beat them." Smith said. "He should win the Heisman."
A. G. Mbakwe
Missouri defensive coordinator Moe Ankney took that endorsement farther, calling Bishop
Bishop. Is a top contender for the Heisman trophy.
the best offensive player he's ever seen in college
Kansas State coach Bill Snyder is usually sting with praise, but even he can envision Bishop winning the Heisman.
"When you watch him play, you see this guy is a tremendous player," Snyder said. "I can sure make a case for him winning the award.
With Bishop at the controls, Kansas State is No.1 in the nation in scoring offense and ninth in total offense. He passed for 306 yards and two touchdowns and ran for 140 yards and two scores in last week's impressive 40-30 victory against Nebraska, its first against the Cormuskers in 29 years.
"If we win, I'm happy," Bishop said.
"If we lose, I'm not happy. As far as the Heisman race, I feel like the things I do on the field speak for all that."
Bishop is working on five consecutive 200-yard passing games. He has run for 12 touchdowns and passed for 20, with
only two interceptions. Missouri hopes to harass him into a few more turnovers.
"I'm not saying we're going to hit him, sack him or even touch him," Ankney said. "But he's got to feel he's got to get rid of the ball. If we let him hold onto the ball, our coverage won't hold up."
Missouri began totong Jones, also a senior, as a Heisman hopeful before last season's Halloween Bowl. That died down when Jones sprained his left big toe Oct. 3 during a 35-14 victory against Northwest (La) State.
Though Jones hasn't missed any games, for about a month he couldn't go full speed and wasn't able to generate much on the option attack. His zip returned the past two weeks, with Jones rushing for 192 yards and extending his school record to 37 touchdowns.
Regents to determine Sooner coach's future
The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — If John Blake is forced out at Oklahoma, he would become the third Sooner football coach in the past five years to draw a financial settlement from an athletics department operating in the red.
The Oklahoma's regents said yesterday they would have a special meeting Sunday to consider Blake's performance and his contract. The Sooners (4-6) finish their season tomorrow at home against Texas Tech.
Blake, assured of his third-straight losing season,
has two years remaining on his contract, which pays
$125,200 per year. If he is let go, the university would be
obliged to pay the final two years of the agreement.
Oklahoma will finish paying off Gary Gibbs this
year, who was let go after the 1994 season. Howard Schnellenberger's forced resignation after the 1995 season resulted in him being paid through the end of that fiscal year. June 1996.
The department's budget is about $24 million, but it has lost more than $10 million in the past 11 years.
A. BONDY
In June, Oklahoma regents approved a $500,000 short-term department saving
it was needed to prevent a budget shortfall for the fiscal year that ended June 30.
Blake
A year earlier. the regents had approved a $1.9 mil-
liion loan to the department. That loan was repaid by the beginning of 1988.
Athletic department officials said they expected the most recent loan to be repaid by Jan. 1. Associate athletics director Larry Naifeh said at the time that he didn't anticipate the department needing a loan next year.
Replacing Blake would mean bringing in another coach, which would mean spending more of the athletics department's money. But not necessarily as much as it might seem.
Blake's total income, for example, is close to $500,000 annually, including radio and television deals, shoe and apparel contracts, etc. But the university has only had to pay $126,000 of that—his salary.
Rivals speculate on retirement of Iowa coach
The Associated Press
IOWA CITY, Iowa — Iowa State football coach Dan McCarney and Kansas' Terry Allen are willing enough to talk about Hayden Fry's future, but neither will speculate on whether the Iowa coach will retire.
"It's possible he doesn't know what he's going to say," said McCarney, an assistant under Fry from 1979-89. "I don't think there's any question he's put more thought into it this year.
"Now, that doesn't mean he's going to do it this year, but I thought he's
probably given it more consideration than he ever has."
Allen, whose Jayhawks play McCarney's Cyclones tomorrow, recalls how bad the Hawkeyes were when he was growing up in Iowa City and marvels at how Fry turned the program around when he came to town in 1979.
"I think back to my youth growing up in Iowa City, when I was a senior at West High," Allen said. "I believe Iowa was 0-10 back then. Iowa wasn't what it is now when I was in high school, believe me. And that's all
because of coach Fry."
Allen coached at Northern Iowa from 1989-96 and knows what it's like to play one of Fry's teams. The Hawkeye beat Northern Iowa 34-13 in 1995.
"I think he's the most significant football coach ever in the state of Iowa," Allen said. "His turnaround at Iowa is right up there with what Bill Snyder has done at Kansas State."
McCarney was part of the rebuilding of the Hawkeyes from the start. He witnessed Fry's work, devotion and two of the team's three trips to
the Rose Bowl. Now, he's trying to convit at Iowa State.
Iowa State beat Iowa 27-9 this season. It was the first time since 1982.
"I know this has been such a tough year on him and the Hawks because they're not used to this kind of season," McCarney said. "I just want him to be happy when he does retire. I want him to enjoy it better than anybody in the world because nobody deserves it more."
Neither McCarney nor Allen would go out on a limb on predicting what Fry will do.

Cubs' Sammy Sosa receives NL MVP title
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Sammy Sosa was voted the National League's Most Valuable Player yesterday in a landslide against Mark McGwire, his rival in the most memorable home-run chase ever.
Sosa, who finished second to McGwire with 66 homers, got 30 of 32 first-place votes and 438 points in balloting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America.
"I would have voted for Mark," Sosa said from Chicago during a telephone conference call. "In my heart, Mark McGwire is still the man for me."
McGwire, who set the record with 70 homers, got the other two first-place votes and 272 points. Two sports writers for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch both voted for McGwire and listed Sosa second.
"It's hard to hit 70 home runs and not win MVP," Sosa said. "I was never so sure to myself that I had it until today."
While Sosa was first or second on every ballot, McGwire got 20 seconds, three threes, one fourth, four fifths, one sixth and one seventh
Sosa, given a hero's welcome when he
Sosa, given a returned to his native San Pedro de Macoris in the Dominican Republic last month, created a historic Latin American sweep 'Texas' Juan Gonzalez, who is Puerto Rican, won the AL MVP Wednesday.
Sosa, a former teammate of Gonzalez in the Rangers minor-league system, is the second Dominican to win an MVP, joining George Bell (1987). Sosa intends to return home today.
resume his relief efforts following the damage caused by Hurricane Georges.

Sosu: Hit 66 homeruns with the Chicago Cubs last season
"What happened in my country was tough," said Sosa, whose charitable foundation is distributing food.
Sosa hit .308 with a major league-leading 158 RBIs — one more than Gonzalez — as Chicago reached the postseason for the first time since 1989. He also led the majors with 132 runs and 414 total bases.
McGwire, who smashed Roger Maris' previous home-run mark of 61, finished with 147 RBIs and a .299 average as the Cardinals stumbled to a third-place finish in the NL Central, 19 games behind Houston and seven behind the wild-card Cubs. McGwire led the majors in walks (162), slugging percentage (.752) and on-base percentage (.470).
"My reputation outside the field, that counts a lot," Sosa said. "Maybe people took it from there."
Even St. Louis Cardinals manager Tony La Russa thought Sosa had the edge when it came to MVP voting.
"I'm so biased it's ridiculous, but I think Sammy deserves it," he during the season's final week. "I don't think he's done more for his team than Mark has, but his team has
done more than ours has, so his contribution counts for a little more in my book. Just barely, but that's who I would give it to."
Sosa, who was in Japan for the major league all-star tour, returned to Chicago for the announcement. McGwire, who remained on vacation in Australia, said late in the season that a team's finish shouldn't be taken into account.
"It should be the guy who has the best over all year, no matter if his team is in last place or first place," he said.
Houston's Moises Alou was third with 215 points, followed by San Diego's Greg Vaughn, who hit 50 homers and wound up with 185 points. Houston's Craig Biggio was fifth with 163 points, followed by Atlanta's Andres Galarragua (147), San Diego's Trevor Hoffman (117) and San Francisco's Barry Bonds (66).
Sosa gets a $250,000 bonus for winning. Galarraga gets a $100,000 bonus and Alou gets $10,000. It was the eighth time a Cubs player won the MVP, the first since Andre Dawson in 1987.
Kentucky football team mourns player after crash
The Associated Press
EDGEWOOD, Ky. — Infectious joy and enthusiasm made Arthur Steinmetz a winner on and off the football field, his pastor said yesterday eulogizing the Kentucky player killed in a truck crash.
"Not only was he good at the game of football," the Rev. Douglas Fortner said. "I think Artie was good at the game of life."
About 1,100 mourners -- about 200 of them standing
— gathered at St.
Plus X Roman
Catholic Church to
pay last respects to
Steinmetz, 19. He
died Sunday when
teammate Jason
Watts' truck went
M
out of control and flipped on a rural highway.
Mourners included members of the Kentucky football team and coach Hal Mumme, who spoke briefly with Steinmetz's parents, Marshall and Therese Steinmetz.
Also killed in the crash was Christopher Scott Brock, 21, of Hyden, Ky., a student at Eastern Kentucky and a friend of Kentucky quarterback Tim Couch. Brock's funeral was Wednesday.
Watts is being charged with drunken driving and two counts of second-degree manslaughter after a test showed his blood-alcohol content to be 1 1/2 times the legal limit. He received a 12-inch gash in his right forearm and remains hospitalized at Lex-
ington's University of Kentucky Medical Center in good condition.
Blood tests have shown all three men were legally drunk when Watts' truck crashed. All three were thrown from the vehicle.
Jack Kennevan, who was Steinmetz's principal at Covington Catholic High School, recalled meeting Steinmetz for the first time when he visited high school football practice on a hot July day.
"What I remember most was his enthusiastic, 'Yes, sir,' to my questions." Kennevan said. "Artie conducted himself with enthusiasm and joy. He was contagious. He loved, above all, people."
Also eulogizing Steinmetz was Bishop Robert Muench of Covington. He referred to Steinmetz's August decision to transfer from Michigan State, where he had played as a freshman, to Kentucky, where he was sitting out this season before becoming eligible.
Muench noted that blue and white, the colors for Covington and Kentucky, also were the colors of the Virgin Mary, whose prayer of last resort has become the name for a last-second, desperation pass play in football, the Hail Mary.
Muench then led mourners in reciting the Hail Marv.
Fortner told mourners that their sense of loss was real.
For Steinmetz, he said, death was the beginning of a life of full love with God and was comparable to being born again.
"He didn't belong to us." Fortner said. "He was on loan to us from God."
Steinmetz's parents have said they do not want Watts prosecuted in the case.
Edmonton to play host to premier track event
Event never has been on North American soi
The Associated Press
MONTE CARLO, Monaco — Edmonton, Canada beat Stanford University for the right to stage the 2001 World Championships, putting track and field's showcase event in North America for the first time.
The International Amateur Athletic Federation said that Edmonton received the consensus in the secret ballot by the federation's Council yesterday.
Paris and New Delhi were the other bidders.
The exact voting breakdown was not released, but a federation source said Edmonton beat Stanford 22-2. Two Council members were absent and one apparently abstained.
It had been widely expected that the event would go to North America after the championships were held in Helsinki (1983), Rome (1987), Tokyo (1991), Stuttgart (1993), Gotheborg (1995) and Athens (1997).
Edmonton trumped Stanford by lining up government financial support and guarantees, promising to pay for travel costs and accommodations for athletes and officials, and presenting a lucrative Canadian TV deal with the federation.
"The financial issue was very important," federation representative Giorgio Reinler] said. "I think that convinced a lot of people to vote for Edmonton."
Edmonton also impressed the federation by bringing a 27-member delegation
that included Alberta Premier Ralph Klein and Canadian Justice Minister Anne McLellan.
"We were impressed by the guarantees made, the exposures promised and the overall presentation which was splendid," federation president Primo Nebiolo said.
Stanford couldn't match Edmonton's financial guarantees.
"One of the challenges is American cities being asked to, in a sense, guarantee the whole event, and that is certainly not done in the United States," said Dan Fenton, chief operating officer of the San Jose Convention and Visitors Bureau.
He said Stanford offered a novel deal under which an insurance company would guarantee revenue. The United States also offered to offset transportation costs but not to the extent Edmonton did, Fenton said.
"Edmonton was both creative and enthusiastic in their bid and benefited from more than 800 million in government support," said Craig Masback, executive director of USA Track & Field.
"We remain committed to bringing major international events to the United States, and I am confident that we will one day host the World Championships."
The championships will be held at Commonwealth Stadium, home of the Canadian Football League's Edmonton Eskimos. Edmonton staged the 1978 Commonwealth Games, 1983 University Games and 1996 World Figure Skating Championships.
"This is indeed an honor for our province and for the nation." Klein said.

Democrats accuse Starr of misconduct
Impeachment proceedings begin
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr opened the third presidential impeachment inquiry in the nation's history yesterday by charging before a divided House Judiciary Committee that President Clinton misused his authority and power to impede civil and criminal cases against him.
Facing his harshest critics for the first time and amid Democratic assaults on his report to Congress, Starr said he stood behind every word.
Democrats immediately made their case before a national television audience that the president had not been treated fairly. Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., called Starr a federally paid sex police man spending millions of dollars to trap an unfaithful spouse.
P. R. BROWN
Starr: Faced criticism from House Democrats.
Starr was the
Starr was the lead off witness for the historic event, with nine television networks carrying the hearings live
from the same room where the last impeachment proceedings against Richard Nixon convened.
"The hearing today is not a trial. It is not White House vs. Starr, nor is it Republican vs. Democrat." Chairman Henry Hyde said, urging his colleagues to determine whether the nation should allow a president, who prosecutors have concluded lied under oath, to remain in office.
"This is a grave disservice at a grave constitutional moment," Rep William Delahunt, D-Mass., said.
The hearings opened with rancor as Republicans thwarted a Democratic request to give the president's lawyer more time to cross-examine Starr.
Seeking to end the threat to Clinton's presidency and prevent a permanent blot on his legacy, the White House sent Clinton's private lawyer, David Kendall, to interrogate Starr, Kendall, who has accused Starr of misconduct as a prosecutor, sat with a squadron of White House lawyers, taking notes and waiting for his chance to ask questions at the end of the day.

Russians to launch first space station component
The Associated Press
MOSCOW — A year late, Russian space officials prepared yesterday for the launch of the first component of the international space station, the U.S.-led successor to Russia's muchmaligned Mir.
The 24-ton Zarya (Sunrise) control and cargo module is scheduled to lift off 9:40 a.m.
Moscow time from the Balkonur rocket base in Kazakstan today.
The international space station, involving 16 nations, will consist of more than 100 components and is to be completed by 2004.
The United States and Russia are playing the biggest roles, but Russian participation has been hampered by the country's financial problems. The launch of the Zarya module has been delayed for one year, mainly because of
the cash-strapped Russian space agency's failure to complete part of the station.
Zarya, to be launched atop a Russian booster rocket, is designed to serve as a space tugboat in the early stages of the project, providing propulsion, power and communications.
"After years of discussing, planning and replanning, we are about to launch hardware." Gretchen McClain, deputy associate administrator for the new station, said.
The space station will not be inhabitable until early 2000,following the launch of a Russian crew module,which is set to blast off next July or August.
Russia repeatedly has failed to meet deadlines for constructing the crew module, putting the project behind schedule. Having lost hope of getting promised government funds, the Russian space agency has sold its
early research time on the station to NASA for $60 million to complete the segment.
Agency Chief Yuri Koptev said that taking part in the new station was the only hope for the beleaguered Russian space industry, whose funding had disintegrated since the Soviet collapse. The project would allow Russia to keep up to 80,000 jobs during the next 15 years.
The international space station is expected to cost at least $40 billion, with the United States planning to pay $24 billion. It will serve as an orbital home for visiting astronauts and cosmonauts for up to 20 years.
Cabinet of Israel votes to continue peace agreement
Zarya is to fly alone for two weeks before a rendezvous with the American space shuttle Endeavour, which is to be launched Dec. 3 carrying the Unity connecting module. The shuttle crew will attach the two modules together in three space walks.
The Associated Press
JERUSALEM — Israel's Cabinet removed the final obstacle to a West Bank troop withdrawal today by narrowly giving the goahead to the first stage of the new Middle East peace agreement.
Israel's 17-member Cabinet is divided deeply about the accord, under which Israel is to give control of 13 percent of the West Bank by the end of January in exchange for a Palestinian crackdown on Islamic militants.
Netanyahu and six of his ministers voted in favor today, while five voted against and three abstained. Two Cabinet members were abroad.
It was the first time in nearly two years that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's hard-line government has handed territory to Palestinian control. Approval came after a series of delays and disputes with the Palestinians that put the withdrawal five days behind the original schedule. It was expected to be completed by today.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat said the two sides had been cooperating closely, after the initial acrimony.
"we hope the relationship can now improve," he said.
While the Cabinet debated, Israeli officers showed redevelopment maps to their Palestinian counterparts. Together, the group toured the areas of the northern West Bank from which Israel will withdraw.
In the first stage of the pullback, 2 percent of the West Bank, or 44 square miles, will be transferred from sole Israeli control to joint Palestinian jurisdiction. In addition, 7.1 percent of the land, 160 square miles, will be moved from joint jurisdiction to sole Palestinian control.
In Qabatiyeh, a town of 17,000, many residents appeared indifferent to the prospect of coming under full Palestinian rule. No Palestinian flags or posters of Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat decorated the streets, as was customary in previous handovers.
"The Palestinian Authority does commit certain violations, but it's still better than the occupying power (Israel)," said Ibrahim Zidan, a 36-year-old farmer, sitting in an outdoor coffee shop.
Fayez Arafat, commander of Palestinian forces in the West Bank, said his officers would take control of Qabatiyeh and the villages of Tubas, Tamoun and Al-Fara during the next three days.

Weekend football match-ups should be 'big games'
No.1 Tennessee to face Kentucky, while No.3 UCLA faces USC
By Richard Rosenblatt The Associated Press
With due respect to The Game and the Big Game, a few other rivalries tomorrow have turned into Really Big Games.
Top-ranked Tennessee (9-0, 6-0 SEC) plays for more than the Beer Barrel when Kentucky (7-3, 4-3) visits Neyland Stadium. With a win, the Volunteers clinch a spot in the SEC title game Dec. 5 and move a step closer to a national title.
"I think our kids have a genuine respect for Kentucky," Vols coach Phillip Fulmer said. "They know the consequences of this game and continuing on nationally."
Fulmer is so focused on Saturday's game, he is in the dark about what else is going on.
"I couldn't tell you who else is playing," said Fulmer, working
Well, Phil, here's what's happening.
At Pasadena, Calif., No. 3 UCLA (9-0, 7-0 Pac-10) plays host to Southern California (7-3, 5-2). The Bruins, who already have clinched a Rose Bowl berth, are looking for a perfect season and trip to the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 4, where the national title will be on the line.
"It's a big game for us, it's big for our goals, it's big for our fans, it's big for the people who mean a lot to us," UCLA center Shawn Stuart said.
The Trojans are looking to end a seven-game losing streak against the Bruins — the longest in the 67 game series dating to 1929— with
freshman Carson Palmer at quarterback. UCLA counters with Heisman Trophy contender Cade McNown, who failed to throw a touchdown pass in last week's 36-24 win against Washington.
At Columbia, Mo. when No. 2 Kansas State (10-0, 7-0 Big 12) plays No. 19 Missouri (7-3, 5-2), the Wildcats need an impressive win to keep their national title hopes alive. K-State plays No. 6 Texas A&M in the Big 12 title game Dec. 5, and must end up first or second in the final Bowl Championship Series standings to make it to the Fiesta Bowl. Entering tomorrow's games, the Wildcats are in third place, behind Tennessee and UCLA.
Also, the winner of the No. 4 Florida (9-1) at No. 5 Florida State (10-1) game could enter the title chase if two of the top three teams lose.
In The Game, Yale (5-4) is at Harvard (4-5) on the 30th anniversary of the famous 29-29 tie. In the 1968 game, Harvard scored 16 points in the final minute, including a 2-point conversion with time
expired. The headline in the Harvard school paper the next day read: Harvard Beats Yale, 29-29."
In the Big Game, Stanford (2-8) is at California (5-5), with the Bears needing a win to qualify for a bowel game. In the previous 100 games, 47 were decided by a touchdown or less, including Stanford's 21-20 win in '97.
Among other rivalries Saturday, the Rose Bowl is on the line when Michigan plays at Ohio State in the 100-Yard War, Auburn meets Alabama in the Iron Bowl, it's Indiana at Purdue for the Old Oaken Bucket, North Carolina at Duke for the Victory Bell and Washington at Washington State for the Apple Cup.

Hampton coach won't be charged in suspected con
The Associated Press
LUBBOCK, Texas — No charges will be filed against the Hampton University women's basketball coach, her husband, and an assistant coach, police said yesterday.
Coach Patricia Bibbs, her husband, Ezell, and assistant coach Vanetta Kelso were arrested Monday night after shopping at a Wal-Mart store.
They were in Lubbock for the Pirates to play No. 12 Texas Tech on Tuesday night. The game was canceled.
Police Chief Ken Walker said the three had been suspected of trying a con game called the "pigeon drop."
In the ruse, a con artist says he or she has found a purse with a lot of money and tries to persuade the victim to put up money to retain a lawyer so that they can both lay claim to the purse.
The Bibbses and Kelso said they went to the Wal-Mart to buy supplies for the team and some personal items. The three, all of whom are black, said that race might have been an issue in the arrests.
All said police repeatedly ignored them when they asked why they were being detained, searched their van without permission and never read them their rights.
Kelso, who is pregnant, said she vomited in the back of a squad car because she could not breathe properly.

Making a career of caring

Some KU students pass up higher wages at department stores and restaurants to spend their time helping others

The red letters on signs in front of the new Steak 'n Shake entice students to be a server or cook for $10 an hour.
Down Iowa Street, the new JC Penney,
Sears and Kohl's department stores all have
"help wanted" signs in their windows.
The big department stores dwarf small agencies fighting for the same employees in Lawrence's shrinkine labor pool.
Trinity Respite Care, 2400 W. 31st St., is a Lawrence social service agency struggling to find students and others to fill open positions from an increasingly tight labor pool. Trinity hires people to be in-home care providers for Lawrence-area residents with disabilities or other health problems.
The agency usually hires University of Kansas students, but the hiring slowed this fall, not because there is not a demand for care providers, but because there simply aren't enough workers.
Nancy Slabaugh, branch manager of Mantpower Temporary Services, 211 E. 8th St., said most businesses in Lawrence and Douglas County were struggling to fill their vacancies.
"We are in a competition with Steak 'n Shake and Kohl's," Lisa Ellis, social worker at Trinity, said recently. "Right now we have a hold on new clients because we don't have enough providers to meet the need."
"The labor market here is very tight," she said. "Almost everyone here who can be employed is employed, and the department
stores have had a tremendous effect because they draw from the same pool. We are just all vying for the same people. It's tough, very tough."
It has been especially tough to find social service workers who earn close to minimum wage for jobs that can involve physical labor and emotional attachment to the clients.
Trinity's 80 care providers, including about 40 students, were already working over 6,000 hours each month for existing clients, and the agency had to direct some people looking for in-home care to other agencies.
"If we absolutely can't help them within two weeks,we give them another place to call," she said.
Ellis acknowledged the agency could not keep up with the $8 hourly wages offered by other area businesses but said the nonprofit organization offered a haven for those students tired of the smell of grease or the hassle of angry customers.
Trinity pays providers $6.25 an hour. The wage comes from a $1-an-hour fee from the clients, funding from the United Way, grants and private donations, Ellis said.
Money isn't the way the agency attracts employees. There are other significant advantages the job offers, including work schedules, experience and insurance for full-time employees.

Condition of students hit by truck improving
By Keith Burner Kansan staff writer
The conditions of three KU students hit by a truck early Saturday morning in downtown Lawrence are improving, area hospital officials reported.
Justin Barron, Clinton Rousseau and Mark Talley, all 20, were hospitalized at about 2 a.m. after they were struck by a northbound truck while crossing Massachusetts Street near Sixth Street, Lawrence police said.
Rousseau, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, was taken by helicopter to the University of Kansas Medical Center after the accident.
Talley, Leawood sophomore, and Barron, San Ramon, Calif., junior, were taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital. Barron later was flown to the Med Center
Barron and Rousseau both were placed in the Med Center's intensive-care unit in critical condition, said Virginia Taylor, a Med Center nursing supervisor.
Both students still are in the intensivecare care, but they were upgraded to serious condition yesterday after weekend surgeries, she said.
Taylor would not comment on the extent of the students' injuries.
A Lawrence Memorial Hospital nursing supervisor said that Talley, who had been placed in the hospital's intensive-care unit, was in good condition and moved to a regular room yesterday.
Police said the driver of the truck did not stop, but after interviewing witnesses, officers were able to track down the truck a few minutes after the accident.
Police said they stopped a Dodge truck being driven by a Leavenworth man in his mid-40s within minutes of the accident.
They said that both the man and the truck matched descriptions given by witnesses.
Police detained and interviewed the man but did not arrest him. They said they still were investigating the accident and that the case has been forwarded to the district attorney.
Alcohol may have been involved in the accident, police said. They said that whether the students' conditions improved was an important factor in determining which, if any, charges would be filed.
Library will close early to fix power problem
]
Watson Library will be closed tomorrow night and Wednesday as University employees try for a second time to replace a broken electrical transformer.
Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr has received mixed reactions to his role in the Clinton impeachment hearings. KRT photo
The library's original transformer stopped working Oct. 29. Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said the University had been powering the library with a generator.
The University received the new transformer Friday. Safety concerns will force the library to close for 48 hours while the new transformer is put in.
On Nov. 13 and 14, the University closed the library to attempt to install a new transformer it bought from Lyons Electric in Lyons. However, Porter said, that transformer did not work.
University officials chose to close the building early for Thanksgiving break to avoid inconveniencing students trying to finish projects and study for finals.
"We regret this interruption in service," said William J. Crowe, vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries.
The library originally was scheduled to be closed on Thursday. It now will close at 8 tomorrow night.
The library will be open on Saturday and Friday.
Tammy Chulindra, Topeka sophomore, said she doubted that very many students would be on campus to know whether the library was open.
"I am trying to get all of my stuff done before then," she said. The library book drop will remain accessible for returning materials during the time the library will be closed.
Potential users of Watson Library on Friday should call 864-9800 to confirm the reopening.
KU reaction to Clinton hearings muted
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
Many people in the University of Kansas community appear to be indifferent to the impeachment hearings regarding alleged perjury by President Bill Clinton.
The hearing began last week with testimony by Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said the hearings were boring and were not bringing out much new information.
"Even Democrats agree there is perjury, but they are saying, 'So what?' Loomis said. "It's not something they advocate, but it's not a high crime or misdemeanor."
Tiffany Keenan, Great Bend graduate student, said she followed Starr's testimony only sporadically Thursday. She said the hearings should conclude as soon as possible.
"The hearings are taking away any bit of image the president has left." Keenan said.
She said she would prefer the investigation to take place after Clinton finished his term, despite thinking he committed perilure.
"He is a regular person after he is out of office, but he should be on a
pedestal in the meantime," Keenan said.
Ward Cook, president of KU Young Republicans and Mission Hills senior, agreed that Clinton might survive the impeachment hearings. But he thinks Clinton should be responsible for his actions.
"It's a disgrace that a president can perjure himself and get away with it." Cook said.
He said he did not have an opinion
"It was a remarkable perform-

about Starr before the hearings, but thought he had done an excellent job in presenting the case before the House Judiciary Committee.
He proved he is an unbiased and fair man," Cook said. "And I don't think he's enjoying this. Who would put themselves through this process?"

ance." Loomis said.
"Everyone's looking for a way to finish this thing," Loomis said. "Clinton would have accepted almost any deal a couple of weeks ago. Now, he is in a better position."
Loomis said the House had several options, ranging from voting against impeachment in the Judiciary Committee to sending the articles of impeachment to the Senate for trial.
Conventional wisdom says it is more likely the charges will die, Loomis said. He said a deal probably will be made for a censure or reprimand, with Republicans joining Democrats to stop the impeachment while publicly rebuking Clinton for his conduct.
Criminal charges could be filed after Clinton leaves office, regardless of the congressional hearing's outcome.

Woman hospitalized after being shot by ex
HUTCHINSON — A 23-year-old Hutchinson man shot and wounded his former girlfriend and turned the gun on himself four days after she requested a protective order against him, the woman told police.
Leslie Shoemaker, 20, called police Saturday, saying Scott McAllister had forced his way into her home carrying a 1.2-gauge shotgun and had fired on her as she ran for the door. Lt. John Tracy said.
As Shoemaker lay bleeding, McAllister put the gun under his chin and fired again, she told police.
McAllister was dead when police arrived. Tracy said.
Shoemaker remained hospitalized at Hutchinson Hospital on Sunday. Tracy said her injury was not thought to be life-threatening.
Hutchinson Police had responded to two previous calls involving Shoemaker and McAllister during the two weeks prior to the shooting, Tracy said.
Tuesday, the court issued a Protection from Abuse Order at Shoemaker's request directing McAllister to stay away from her.
Company might face fines for June explosion
HAYSVILLE — The grain elevator explosion that killed seven workers last June could mean fines of about $1 million for DeBruce Grain Inc., an Occupational Safety and Health Administration official saws.
The fines could be reduced if DeBrue officials reach a settlement with OSHA lawyers.
Charles Adkins, OSHA's regional administrator in Kansas City, Mo., described the $1 million figure as a ballpark estimate of what the agency may require DeBrue to pay for safety violations at its huge elevator complex south of Wichita.
DeBrue's penalty will be based on the number of violations at the elevator, how serious they were and whether management was aware of the problems. Adkins said.
He refused to discuss what violations OSHA officials discovered and what improvements will be necessary.
DeBruece had no previous violations at the elevator in Haysville. It had never been inspected by OSHA while it was owned by DeBruece.

Explosion injures man damages three homes
BELTON, Mo. — A house exploded and caught fire yesterday morning,

The explosion occurred about 10:15 a.m., said Kevin Livingston, assistant chief for the Belton Fire Department. He said the cause of the explosion was under investigation.
Authorities did not release the injured man's name or his condition. Livingston said the man was the only person in the house, which is southeast of Kansas City.
No other injuries were reported.

WASHINGTON — The nation's murder rate reached its lowest level in 30 years as serious crimes reported to
police in 1997 declined for a sixth consecutive year, the FBI said yesterday.
Final FBI figures for 1997 showed a 2 percent drop from the year before in the number of major crimes reported to more than 17,000 police agencies around the nation. The 13.2 million total crimes were 7 percent below the 1993 figure.
The crime rate, which adjusts for population growth, showed more dramatic declines. Last year's rate was 4,923 crimes per 100,000 residents, down 3 percent from 1996, 10 percent lower than 1993 and 13 percent lower than 1988.
All violent crimes — murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault — and all the far more numerous property crimes — burglary, auto theft and larceny-theft — dropped in both number and rate.
The violent crime rate was down 4 percent to its lowest level since 1987, led by the 8.1 percent decline for murder and a 7.8 drop for robbery. The aggravated assault rate was down 2.3 percent, and the rape rate declined 1.1 percent.
The property crime rate dipped 3.1 percent — down 3.8 percent for auto theft, 3.1 percent for larceny-theft, 2.7 percent for burglary.

Leaders of Russia, China meet informally today
MOSCOW — Chinese President Jiang Zemin traveled to Moscow yesterday for an informal summit with Russian President Boris Yeltsin that will focus on expanding cooperation between the former Cold War rivals.

A main issue at today's meeting will be lagging commerce between the two countries. Trade fell 10 percent last year to $6.1 billion, and the two want to raise the total to $20 billion by 2000.

The Russian and Chinese leaders were also expected to sign a statement on demarcation of their 2,700-mile border and discuss broad issues of expanding cooperation. Jiang plans to invite Yeltsin to visit China next year. the ITAR-Tass
news agency said yesterday and quoted Kremlin sources as saying the Russian president will accept the invitation.
Embassy investigates shooting of U.S. agent
BOGOTA, Colombia — A U.S. drug agent was shot and killed early yesterday in an entertainment district of Bogota, apparently after an argument in a bar, authorities said.
Frank Arnold Moreno, 37, was shot once in the chest at about 1 a.m. outside the Divino bar, U.S. officials said
Moreno, who had been in Colombia for about a year, was not with any other U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agents at the time and was shot after what one U.S. Embassy official called "a bar brawl."
It was not immediately known whether Moreno was carrying a gun, and the police official said it did not appear Moreno fired any shots, although he said the U.S. agent initiated the quarrel. An embassy official said Moreno and the gunman had been told to leave the bar before the shooting.
Moreno was struck from behind by a 9mm bullet, said a senior Colombian police official who spoke on condition of anonymity. Two witnesses took Moreno to a Bogota hospital, where he was declared dead.
Pump prices average lower than last year
CAMARILLO, Calif. — Gasoline prices nationwide dropped more than a penny a gallon during the past two weeks, continuing a downward spiral as the holiday travel period nears, an industry analyst said yesterday.
The average price of gasoline, including all grades and taxes, was $1.073 a gallon on Friday, down 1.28 cents from Nov. 6, according to the Lundberg Survey of 10,000 stations nationwide.
Economic problems elsewhere, especially in Asia, have created a glut of oil "and brought a Thanksgiving bonanza in the form of low gas prices for American motorists," said Trilby Lundberg, publisher of the Lundberg Survey.
Friday's average was nearly 18 cents lower than Thanksgiving 1997 prices.

Regents alter 2001 entrance requirements
By Jason Pearce
Kansas staff writer
When extended admission requirements go into effect for incoming freshmen in 2001, the University of Kansas will allow some out-of-state students to enroll without meeting the requirements.
The qualified-admission requirements — passed by the Legislature in 1997 — state that entering freshmen either will have to complete a set of core classes with a least a 2.0 grade point average, earn an ACT score of 21 or higher or graduate high school in the top third of their class.
The Board of Regents passed a resolution Thursday allowing each Regents university to make an exception for 10 percent of out-of-state students not meeting those requirements.
Previously, the Legislature had made this exception available only to 10 percent of instate students who did not meet the requirements.
Barb Conant, public-relations director for the Regents, said that the exceptions were necessary to provide some flexibility, especially for students of home schools and high schools that did not provide the core courses.
"It gives the universities some flexibility in the recruitment of out-of-state students," Conant said. "There will be a window for them to possibly be admitted to the University."
For students attending high schools in Kansas, 98 percent of public high schools and 96 percent of private high schools will provide the courses required by the Regents, according to a recent report.
Conant said that students allowed to enroll in Regents' institutions would have to meet some requirements at the universities.
For each academic year, a student would be required to take 24 credit hours of class and earn a GPA of 2.0 or higher.
ON CAMPUS
"I had to meet the requirements, then the next person should have to meet them also," he said. "It is only fair."
Rick Thomas, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said that because the requirements did not go into effect until 2001, all new students would be able to work towards meeting them.

Friendship grows from bone-marrow donation
Special to the Kansan
Sticking an eight-inch needle in a person's hip may not sound like an ideal way to make a friend, but that is how Annie Hendricks and Shannon O'Keefe did it.
By Mike Miller
When O'Keefe, a Marine, donated his bone marrow to Hendricks, Clinton, Mo., junior, two summers ago, it put Hendricks' leukemia in remission.
Last week, although O'Keefe and Hendricks already were friends, they met in person for the first time.
Hendricks was diagnosed with leukemia in October of her freshman year after spending time feeling sluggish and run-down.
After visiting a specialist in Omaha, Neb., Hendricks added her name to a worldwide list of patients seeking bone marrow transplants. O'Keefe, 21, was identified as a nearly perfect genetic match.
Though almost 70 percent of the 600,000 people that wait for bone marrow transplants each year are denied, Hendricks was fortunate to wait barely half a year.
The procedure for bone marrow donorship is done by inserting a needle into the hip bone and removing the marrow. The marrow is then inserted into the transplant recipient's hip bone.
"I spent two days right before the transplant in radiation to kill the harmful cells in my body," Hendricks said. "It was really scary, but I was lucky because I didn't have to wait very long."
In 1997, Hendricks missed a summer and fall semester from school to rehabilitate to her body.
After re-enrolling at the University last spring, Hendricks plunged back into college life. Sh
became involved in Crimson Crew, volunteered for Audio Reader and served as an officer in her sorority.
"The hardest thing was that I should have been up here, and I missed everything. It took away a lot from my life." Hendricks said.
Meanwhile, O'Keele had been transferred from California to Japan shortly after the transplant. Curious about the marrow recipient, he wrote Hendricks a letter asking about her condition.
"It was a pretty stupid letter, really," he said. "I couldn't say anything about myself except my age and what I did."
Hendricks received the letter, wrote back and slowly the two began a correspondence. One day, she received a call from O'Keefe.
"I was in the shower, and my roommate came in and said "There's some guy on the phone for you from Japan." Hendricksaid. "She thought it was a prank at first, but I was like, 'Oh my gosh, what do I say?'
Hendricks and O'OKeefe talked frequently after that, and when O'Keefe received three weeks leave, they decided to meet in Lawrence.
They went to Clinton, Mo., Thursday to meet Hendricks' family. Hendricks and O'Keele celebrated Friday by going to a friend's 21st birthday party and went to her sorority formal on Saturday.
Though O'Keeef returned to the Marines yesterday, the two will stay in touch and possibly meet again in the future. O'Keeef's four years in the Marines end in March, and he will move to Lafayette La., in time for Mardi Gras.
A spring break road trip to New Orleans to make new friends and see old ones might be in the works, Hendricks said. But this time the needles will not be necessary.
New York acid-jazz trio grooves at Liberty Hall
By Augustus Anthony Piazza
Kansan staff writer
Medeski, Martin and Wood, an acid-jazz trio from New York City, brought its groove to downtown Lawrence last night.
The jazz threesome played at Liberty Hall, 642 Massachusetts St., as part of its current tour promoting the group's sixth album, *Combustication*.
Across the country, Medeski, Martin and Wood have been building a fan base of college students.
The trio, which has played opening acts for the band Phish and also has played at the HORDE Festival, is composed of keyboardist John Medeski, drummer Billy Martin and bassist Chris Wood.
Red Lyon Tavern
The group combined the sounds of its instruments and the music that was spun by Deejay Logic to create an upbeat atmosphere for fans to dance to.
Combustication was ranked in Entertainment Weekly's Top Ten albums among college students.
David Brodie, Prairie Village freshman, said that he had been a fan of the group for a couple of years and that he saw the band last summer at the Sunflower Music Festival in Lawrence.
"The music has a consistent groove," Brodie said. "I love the bass solos,the best."
Joshua Finley, Lawrence senior, also came to the show last night to dance to the funk.
"I have missed them the last four times they played in town," Finley said. "I wasn't going to miss it again."
Two other acts performed before Medesk1, Martin and Wood took the stage. The North Mississippi All-Stars and Deeay Logic warmed up the crowd.
Brodie said that he enjoyed watching the North Mississippi All-Stars play.
"It's fun to see a band jam live," Brodie said.
About 800 people attended the show, which cost $18. The crowd capacity for Liberty Hall is 1,000 people.

Turkey bowlers need to donate food
For every year that the event has been in existence, there has been controversy surrounding turkey bowling. Yet Ellsworth Hall residents continue to hurl the frozen carcasses at the waiting pins in the spirit of Thanksgiving fun, and the animal rights activists continue to use the activity as an example of how insensitive people are to the treatment of animals.
However, there is also another point to be made about the insensitivity of turkey bowling; food wastefulness. Ellsworth does reuse the same turkies every year, so at least only four are sacrificed to the sport. This year, though, the bowling is accompanied by mashed potato sculpting and cranberry sauce wrestling, items that cannot be reused.
Such events would be fun, whether one is participating or simply watching. However, these activities, when shown in a different light, become more
Ellsworth Hall residents should donate as much food as they waste for their activities.
appalling than entertaining. Statistics reveal that Americans throw away 25 percent of their food. These events exemplify that Americans have more food than they can eat, and therefore use it for sport. Would a survivor of Hurricane Mitch think it was funny to watch well-fed students wrestling in cranberry sauce? Would a homeless person think that the most prudent way to use a turkey would be to bowl it and then store it in a freezer for next year?
Ellsworth Hall certainly did not intend for such activities to be a slap in the face of those who are less fortunate. The activity is a way for students in residence balls to interact in a fun and harmless way, while poking a little fun at the definition of "thanksgiving tradition."
However, the event also could be used as a way for students to help those who don't have any food to eat. Ellsworth Hall residents should match the amount of food they use in their Thanksgiving activities with a donation to a charitable organization. For every turkey bowled, one should also be given to a shelter that sponsors a free Thanksgiving dinner. For every potato mashed into a sculpture, one should be supplied to a charity.
Turkey bowling becomes more than mindless fun. It combines the traditional foods of Thanksgiving while keeping with the spirit of the holiday: giving. Ellsworth Hall residents should use their enthusiasm for bowling turkes to help everyone to have a happy Thanksgiving.

All Kennedy records should be opened
Among the most notable and moving events of the 20th Century is the assassination of our 35th president, John F. Kennedy. Yesterday marked the 35th anniversary of his assassination, yet many Americans still question whether Lee Harvey Oswald was the one who fired the three bullets that extinguished Kennedy's life.
As Kennedy's memory grows more distant, however, America is in danger of acquiescing rather than lobbying for the release of all information pertinent to the shady circumstances surrounding his death.
This is simply unacceptable.
This is simply unacceptable. A witful, charismatic, popular and idealistic figure, Kennedy served as a beacon of hope in a decade increasingly wrought with tension at home and abroad. His murder made the future seem profoundly uncertain.
Yesterday was the 35th anniversary of John F. Kennedy's assassination.
But most bothersome is the investigation of his murder. Long after the Warren Commission concluded Lee Harvey Oswald was the sole assassin, people still suspect the United States government is hiding something
Congress commissioned another investigation in 1975 based on concerns that there may have been multiple assassins and that the government may have been involved; this investigation was cut short for lack of funding and the scientific validity of its findings were questioned. Oliver Stone aroused more public outcry with his controversial film JFK $ ^{13} $
1992. Not long after the film's release, Congress commissioned the Assassination Records Review Board to work for the release of the millions of withheld documents. The board submitted its final report in September. About four million pages of information were released and made accessible through the National Archives. Still, about five million individual documents are withheld from the public, many of which will not be publicly available until 2017.
It is both frustrating and unfair for our elected officials to drag its heels on an issue of such importance. It seems illogical for the government to deny our access to information regarding Kennedy's death. While 35 years have passed since this sad event in our history took place, we must not tolerate the continual, unnecessary roadblocks to the truth.

Parallel parking a feat that mystifies many
Nearly 100 years of driving experience, and people still have not learned to parallel park.
Perspective
This is most evident when glancing down
any block within a one-mile radius of the main campus at the University of Kansas. Pitiful displays of incompetence line the streets — automobile abandoned by tardy students and faculty.
Mike
Perryman
Guest Columnist
A white Chevrolet Cavalier is parallel parked at such an angle that the rear extends halfway into the street. The right front tire of a black Toyota Celica actually rests at least two feet into the
Despite these auto atrocities, a good number of motorists have learned somewhere along the line, undeniably at the expense of several $20,000 to $40,000 automobiles, to crudely crunch their way into a tight spot. These amateurs, which compose the greater portion of the driving population, are content with mediocrity.
However, above these individuals exist a more refined breed of parallel parkers — an elite few who rarely fail under harsh scrutiny and who demand a certain level of regard. Those of us who lack the skill, observe as seasoned parallel-parkers defy perpendicularity and park without defacing the surrounding vehicles.
We gape in awe and admiration as a freak of nature, who truly has perfected the art of parallel parking, almost mockingly slides into an unreasonably small space — often, a space so unreasonably small that one could not slip a fallen leaf between the bumpers on either side of the car.
When it is our turn to attempt the park, our first priority is to make sure no one else is watching. Then, after we hit the car parked behind us, we look to make sure no one saw the more-than-subtle contact.
Most individuals, although they are reluctant to admit it, are incapable of such a tight park, and are categorized as parallelparking challenged. Although it is difficult to swallow, I may qualify as one of these individuals.
During the day, as I pull up alongside a sleek, new BMW, wrench my back, turn my head and throw my arm behind the passenger seat, I try to convince myself that I do not belong in the aforementioned category
We repeat this after we hit the car parked in front of us. Our inability, of course, is being observed by some guy lurking in the shadows who we did not see, or some girl pulled over on the side of the road, car idling. Both of them laugh uncontrollably and look around, hoping to see the owner of one of the jostled cars running out of some nearby house.
e entertainment. We laugh as we see the driver bang the hell out of the two parked cars, and we hope that maybe, just maybe, the owner of one of the cars will come running out of some nearby house, increasing the level of excitement and entertainment.
and that I am one of the gifted parallel parkers. But the truth comes out at night, when it is dark, and I realize that I cannot fool myself. I have hit everything from a 1961 Corvair to a 1998 Corvette, and when it comes right down to it, my car probably should be impounded and I should be forced to work — without pay — in a North Lawrence body shop.
Although we — the challenged — are impressed with an experienced parallel-parker, there is an even greater fascination with the failure of our fellow inadquates, people with whom we empathize, regardless of whether we know them personally. These individuals dare to attempt a parallel park with no more than the raw experience obtained during a driving test at age 16 — a test that undoubtedly was flunked at least twice solely because of the inability to pass the parallel-parking section of the exam. This humiliation is pathetic to watch; yet at the same time, it is a source of inexplicable entertainment.
Frustrated, after failing to park the car six to eight times, we curse our compact cars for not being small enough and our land yachts for not having some red button on the dashboard that electronically would shrink the car down to half of its original size.
Oh, how we would love to get our hands on the wonderful individual — even if we could speak with him or her for just one minute — who parked right in the middle of a space that easily could have fit two large vehicles.
Leaving a trail of obscenities and debris, we drive away in search of another failure.

Telephone shows no mercy for sleepy college student
You know how it is. I'm just trying to sleep, enjoying my favorite dream — the one with the girl from English class, several
sandy beaches and the James Bond theme on repeat
— when the shrill ringing of the telephone interrupts my quiet slumber.
quiet slumber "Hello?"
"Yeah."
"Mr. Miller?"
"Hi, this is the Lawrence Journal-World."

"Yes, you called me yesterday."
"But, today, we have an even better offer."

Click. I roll over and try
Click. I roll over and try to find my way back to dreamland. But no, it's 10 a.m. and somebody else doesn't want me to sleep.
"Hello?"
"Hi, it's me, did I wake you?"
"Yes."
163.
Click. I'm not sure who that was, but I figure they'll call back if it's important. My only concern right now is the new set of powder-blue flannel sheets I have yet to fully break in. Ring. I turn and look at the telephone with an intense hatred that it seems to brush away without any feeling at all. It rings again.
"What?"
"Well, aren't we grumpy."
"Sorry, Mom."
Okay, this is family. I can deal with a heartfelt phone call from my mother. I'm sure she's just worried about losing touch with me as the years pass by.
"I just wanted to see if you were still coming home for 'Thanksgiving,' she tells me.
She hasn't quite figured out that free food is hard to come by, and I'll always be willing to spend a few hours on crowded highways to get it. So, I tell her of course I'm coming.
"What time do you think you'll get here?"
"Thursday."
Yes:
"Hi, is your roommate home?"
Click. Enough of that. Sleep above sentimentality, you know. I think it's just some innate thing that guys are born with. Anyway, which side was I leaving on? Ring.
"Argl!" I shout many expletives at the telephone, but the blasted thing keeps ringing anyway.
"Is he ever when you call at this time?" "Well, I just thought..."
"Think about calling in the afternoon."
Click. This is becoming absurd. Why don't I just turn off the ringer?
Meanwhile, whoever it is on the other end of the line speaks to the dead air.
That's a nice, logical solution to my problem.
Now, if I can just find the little switch. Ring. I drop the phone in fright. It did that on purpose, I just know it.
"Hello? Hello?" After a while, he gives up, and I hear the dial tone humming from the receiver as it lays on the floor. I cautiously kick it back into place and wait. Trying to turn off the ringer only upset it, what can I do now? Rina.
I decide to be aggressive. The time for hesitancy has passed and all that.
"This had better be important," I say into the phone.
"Lay it on me."
"It's your lucky day."
"Uh..."
"Come on, sit it out, I've got things to do." "To this man, Miller?"
"We're calling for donations to the policeman's fund."
"I donated $55 earlier this year "
"Really? I don't have your name on my list." "It's on the ticket."
Click. Ring. I see. It's a game now. All right, little phone, bring it on.
"Hello?"
"Are you okay?"
Are you okay.
"I'm fine. What is it?"
"Are you okay?
"I'm fine. What is it?"
"I'm fine. What is it?
"I can call back later, if it's a bad time."
"Look, I'm already up."
"No, you don't sound so good. I'll call back later. Get some rest."
Click. Okay, I don't find this funny at all. I pace my bedroom and try to think of some rational end to this episode. I'm in college, I should be able to figure this out. After a quick trip to the bathroom (I did just wake up, you know), I decide to attempt dismantling the ringer again. Maybe I can sneak on the thing. For a moment, I think I may be losing my mind.
Then, it rings again.
I pick up the receiver, while getting a firm grasp of the line coming out of the wall jack. I try to speak calmly.
"Hello?"
"Hi. It's your editor. I was just wondering if you were working on a column."
"Yeah," I tell her. "I've got an idea or two." "Great, do you think that..." Click

Agency aids those in need
One student gains professional experience and finds a friend in the woman she cares for weekly
Continued from page 1A
Rochelle Silan, Norton senior, has worked as a care provider for Trinity for almost two years. She knows she can make more money elsewhere and has worked in retail sales before. She said the gratification she got from her job with Trinity was worth much more to her than the hourly wage.
She has spent time on her knees scrubbing bathroom floors, but it was the experience she was looking for. not the money.
She often helps people with tasks that to many would seem common place.
"It's not high-paying or glamorous like being seen at the department stores every day, but I'm willing to do it because of the personal rewards," Silan said. "It's a very humbling experience when you realize what you take for granted."
The same things that keep Silan working for the center are what make care providers choose the center over a more lucrative retail or restaurant job.
Like all other providers, Silan sets her own schedule. She works about 30 hours each week while taking 13 hours of classes at the University.
The center posts a list of clients in need of care, and providers sign up for jobs that match their own schedule.
"This job is great for a student because it is extremely flexible," Silan said. "With school you have classes and then you have to study. It works
perfectly to walk in and sign up for things that fit into your schedule."
Silan also works with older adults but spends four hours each Thursday night with Stephanie Martell, a Lawrence woman who has Williams Syndrome. Williams Syndrome is a genetic disorder that can cause developmental delays, problems with eye-hand coordination and weaknesses with math and money skills.
The time Silan and Martell spend together has become more than just a therapy session.

A positive aspect of Williams Syndrome is heightened social skills, and part of Silan's job with Martell is to give her a chance to use those skills.
"We go out to eat, watch movies, go shopping and take walks, Martell said. "It's like going out with my friend. That's the great part about it. It is someone who I can be a companion with."
Sian and Martell's outings were usually part of the therapy sessions that Silan was hired to do. For example, a trip to the mall gave Martell an opportunity to get some exercise.
"Interacting with clients is a growth experience," Silan said. "I have really gotten to know Stephanie. It is work experience for the career I am going into. But really, being able to work with others is most rewarding."
Jan Jess, intern coordinator and assistant director of field practicum for the school of social welfare at the University, said people who worked in social service jobs often were not as concerned
SUCCESS
"It's not high-paying or glamorous like being seen at the department stores every day, but I'm willing to do it because of the personal rewards. It's a very humbling experience when you realize what you take for granted."
Rochelle Silan Norton senior and care provider for Trinity Respite Care
about the money as much as helping others and learning themselves.
Trinity has also become a satellite classroom for some students, especially those focusing on social welfare, physical and occupational therapy, and nursing.
Social welfare students are required to have an unpaid internship for graduation, Jess said.
"They can take what they are learning and apply it to future jobs," Jess said. "It links academic content with the real world and allows them to have significant experience before they graduate. Basically, it allows them to hit the ground running."
Ellis puts the unpaid social welfare intends to work doing client reassessments, helping with the hiring and training of providers, and writing grant requests.
Cathy Faler, Elk City senior, said her experience as a social work intern at Trinity was a good starting point for her future career in social welfare.
Whether students chose the agency for the learning experience, an alternative to common jobs or flexible schedules, many say they have formed a bond with the people they were hired to care for.
Martell and Silan have become friends during their weekly sessions together, and much of the time they spend together is in addition to their Thursday evening outings.
One of Martell's favorite memories was taking Silan to a wedding this summer.
"She went with me to the dinner and met my friend's grandmothers," Martell said. "They liked her so much they wanted to adopt her. So do I."

Two injuries two career highs highlight game
By Erin Thompson
Kansan sportswriter
It was not the kind of double-double anyone would want — 11 points and 11 stitches. But it was typical of No. 8 Kansas '91-67 win against Fort Hays State.
Eric Chenowith received 11 stitches above his right eye after getting nailed by a Fort Hays State player two minutes into the game.
Unfortunately, the most intense moment in Kansas' (3-0) beating of Fort Hays State (0-1) was the sight of the Jayhawks sophomore center lying in a pool of blood.
"I had to get double figures in something," Chenwith said. "It was first time I ever got stitches."
The Jayhawks handled the Tigers easily but never got into a rhythm, never exploded for the big plays and never looked excited. The 'Hawks merely executed to the degree necessary to win.
behind the three-point arch and hit five of free-throws. He led
"It was a little bit of an ugly game out there at times in the second half," said Kansas head coach Roy Williams. "I'm not as pleased as I like to be by any means. But it's a 'W' and by that part's behind us, but we've got to play a heck of a lot better."
The game was one with many problems — for Chenowith, for Nick Bradford, who split his big toenail open, and for the scoreboard. The scoreboard lights, ESPN's connection and various lights throughout Allen Field House went out five minutes into the game and continued to blink on and off throughout the game.
One person who did not struggle was Ryan Robertson. The senior guard was four of six from

ing the ball, but he was doing a good job defensively."
One Jayhawk's double-double was more enjoyable than Chenowith's. Lester Earl showed his athletic capabilities for the first time this season after having off-season knee surgery. Earl scored 10 points and grabbed 11 rebounds.
The Jayhawks won't see a game of this kind for some time. It was a last chance of sorts for Kansas to fine-tune its game before facing such dawnning opponents as UNLV in the Tip-Off Classic on Friday and No. 4 Kentucky in the Great Eight on Dec. 1.
"Our next seven games are against people with fantastic basketball programs," Williams said. "But I'm not as concerned
about those other teams as I am us. Right now we're not ready to play at that level."
Williams took advantage of this opportunity to play freshmen John Crider and Marlon London for significant minutes.
After taking yesterday off, Kansas will have four days of practice to prepare for the Running Rebels. Team members said they saw intense practices ahead.
"Those guys are going to have to play some more for us." Williams said. "I wanted to get some of the other guys some time and get them in there. I would have liked to have gotten them in more."
"Coach enjoys those days," Earl said. "He enjoys practicing more than the games. I'm sure it's going to be very intense, very executional, tight practices."
Kansas could not continue the dominant play in the second half and was outscored 38-36.
The Jayhawks turned around the lackadaisical first-half play that has plagued them in their first two games. They finished the first half with a 21-6 scoring run and grabbed a 54-29 lead. But

Injury may end Raymant's play for this season
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
The No. 17 Kansas women's basketball team (2-2) won two of three games this weekend at the Hawaiian Regent Classic, but may have lost senior co-captain Suzi Raymant for the season.
Raymant, the team's second-leading scorer last season with 14.1 points per game, injured her left knee while going after a ball in overtime of the team's win against Minnesota Saturday. The guard scored 12 points in 39 minutes against the Golden Gophers and is averaging 9.3 points per game this season.
Raymant has worn a brace on her left knee this season after injuring it during the summer. She sat out at last night's 51-47 loss to Hawaii and the team is waiting until its return to Lawrence to make a decision about Raymant's status for the remainder of the season. In the meantime, senior Shandy Robbins will take Raymant's place in the starting lineup.
ine Jayhawks beat Massachusetts Friday, 58-49. Lynn Pride scored 15 points, grabbed five rebounds and had six steals in the win.
Kansas never trailed, largely because of a strong defensive effort. UMass tied the game early in the second half with an 8-0 run, but Raymant answered with a three-pointer, sparking a Jayhawk 8-0 run and Kansas led the rest of the way.
Raymant finished with 10 points and sophomore forward Jaclyn Johnson added 13.
Kansas needed overtime to beat Minnesota, 62-53, on Saturday. Pride again led the Jayhawks with 20 points and eight rebounds. She made seven of 13 shots and six of seven free throws.
Kansas opened overtime with seven straight points on a jumper and free throw by Johnson and baskets by Pride and Raymant. The Jayhawks trailed 25-14 at halftime, but outscored the Golden Gophers 37-26 in the second half and 11-2 in overtime.
Kansas ended the weekend with a 51-47 loss to Hawaii (3-0) last night. Robbins led the Jayhawks with 17 points while Johnson had 12 rebounds.
Kansas shot 31 percent from the field and never led after scoring the game's first basket.
Pride scored nine points and was named to the all-tournament team along with Johnson.

Disappointing season ends with loss
By Jodi M. Smith

Kansan sportswriter
It was a bitter defeat to end a bitter season.
The Kansas football team couldn't keep Iowa State in its grasp Saturday as the Cyclones ripped a 23-20 victory away from the Jayhawks.
Losing the final game of the season left the Jayhawks with a 4-7 record and a bad taste in their mouths. It was so disappointing, some couldn't even describe it.
Sophomore running back David Winbush tries to break free during Kansas' 23-20 loss to Iowa State Saturday. Winbush gained 124 yards for a 1,000-yard season but was stopped short by the Cyclone defense, gaining 98 yards on 21 carries. Photo by Graham K. Johnson/KANSAN
"I don't have the words for it," running back David Wimbush said.
The Kansas offense, despite gaining 361 yards of total offence, was unable to get the job done when it mattered.
With 1:40 remaining in the third quarter, coach Terry Allen decided to go for a first down on fourth and inches with the ball on the Kansas 36-yard line, in what could have been the game's biggest decision. The quarterback sneak by Jay Alexander failed, and Iowa State took possession.
"We made plays at times, but we didn't make them a lot of other times, like in the second half when we needed to," said wide receiver Harrison Hill. "It was just really inconsistent."
It appeared to be the difference-maker as the Jayhawks were unable to produce any points in the fourth quarter. Kansas was only able to penetrate Cyclone territory once during the final 15 minutes.
"I don't know if IPI sleep over that one tonight," Allen said after the game. "But I still feel it was a legitimate call. You can second guess the heck out of yourself. I feel bad because, if that was the difference-maker, I feel bad for the team."
Four plays later, Cyclone place kicker Jamie Kohl made a 47-yard field goal that put Iowa State up 23-20.
But the Kansas offense wasn't all missed passes and quarterback sacks.
Alexander was 12-of-26 with 210 yards passing. His benefactors were Hill and wide receiver Terraine Fulton, who had 85 and 96 yards passing, respectively. Fulton also had one touchdown.
Winbush gained 98 yards on the ground, falling 26 yards short of 1,000 for the season.
But it's not these sophomores that were playing their final games for Kausas. It was the 16 seniors.
"There's a lot of good kids there," Allen said. "They're a lot of guys that are fun to coach, and a lot of guys that in two years I've built some pretty strong relationships with. I hate to see them bow out in this fashion."
For those seniors who had lofty aspirations for their final season, Saturday's loss was even that much more a stab in the heart.
"It sucks," senior offensive lineman Justin Glas
gow said. "You start at the beginning of the year, and you set goals for yourself and you envision certain games you plan on winning. And it's just been very disappointing this year."

NCAA Championships begin today at Rim Rock
Kansas represented by only one runner
"This year, there is greater depth and experienced runners for both the men and women," Harter said. "There will be great individual battles and team battles."
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
According to Arkansas coach Lance Harter, this year's NCAA Cross Country Championships could be the greatest ever.
The University of Kansas will serve as the host for today's 60th NCAA Cross Country Championships at Rim Rock!
The Jayhawks will be represented by one runner, junior Brian Jensen, who holds the course record at Rim Rock Farm. He finished second at the Midwest Regional nine days ago.

"I feel confident that I'll perform well," Jensen said. "I don't know many other runners. I don't know if they are good sprinters, but they are obviously all good runners."
Great runners might be more accurate. Colorado's Adam Goucher, who finished fourth in last year's championships and was the Mountain Regional champion this year, is among the favorites to challenge for the individual crown. Other runners considered

favorites are Great Lakes Regional champion Jill Mwangi of Butler, who also won the NCAA Pre-Meet on Oct. 10 at Rim Rock Farm, and West Regional champion Abdi Abdirahman of Arizona.
On the women's side, top-ranked Brigham Young University has a good shot at retaining its title. Stanford could be BYU's closest challenger, as the two teams blew away the field last year. BYU finished with 100 points last year, Stanford with 102 and Colorado was a distant third with 178 points.
"It will be a close men's race," said Stanford coach Vin Lananna. "I think that if you ran this race 10 times, there would be a different order of finish each time."
Among the favorites in the men's team competition are top-ranked Arkansas, defending champion Stanford, Oregon and Colorado.
BYU returns its top three runners from last year's champion team, none of whom finished worse than 32nd.
BYU coach Patrick Shane said that his team was feeling loose despite not participating in the NCAA Pre-Meet.
“There is some added tension because we won it all last year,” Shane said. “We don’t have to defend our trophy. It will always be there and it will always be ours. We are now going after this year's championship.”

With a little determination, and help of a rather pussy loved one, they are. Let yourself be talked into doing something you wouldn't normally do. You're especially likely to be adventurous if you've done your homework. That is the key to your success.

Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
It looks like the truth is coming out, most likely concerning financial matters. You and your partner are going to be able to figure out how you got into debt, or how to make your next wise investment. If you don't have a financial partner yet, your best bet is so known for years.

Cancer (June 22-July 23): Today is a 5. Your sign is often associated with entertaining at home, and with being a magnificent cook. If this describes you, you've noticed we're entering the holiday season. You tend to think you're the only one who can do the job well. Get over that, by allowing a partner to help. That will be more fun for all of you.
Lee (July 23-Aug. 22) Today is a 6.
You don't like situations where you don't have control.
Why not just accept responsibility and do what needs to be done on purpose? When you merely daydream, you just make yourself miserable. Instead, focus on the job with everything you've got, and whip it into shape. You'll have time left for what you had in mind all along
Virga (Aug, 23-Sep, 22): Today is a 6.
You're lucky in love today, and it looks like you're supposed to be doing something else. Well, if anyone can organize a schedule effectively, it's you. In fact, you might be able to schedule a brief, precious moments with your sweette uninterrupted, even in the middle of a busy day. Give it a try. You've got nothing to lose.
LION
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Today is a 5.
You love talking to people about philosophical subjects, and you'll get lots of opportunities to do that during the coming few weeks. Each of us has a personal philosophy, of course, but your always seems to be under construction. This month, you'll find lots of good material to it fine-tuned just the way you want it.
体育
**Scorpio** (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Your focus is on finances. Conditions indicate good luck and abundance, but also a tendency to squander, lose things or mismanage money. Those are all areas to look out for. You'll be learning through experience, which is not a bad way to learn.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21); Today is a 5.
You're lucky in love and the ability to produce blind-
ing revelations in others. One little problem with that
last one, though. Mercury is retrograde right now, so
there might be a little confusion. That's most likely to
occur today regarding money.

Loss to Iowa State spoils Jayhawk seniors' farewell
By Matthew Friedrichs
Kansas sports editor
Kansan sports editor
It was supposed to be a fond farewell for the Kansas seniors. A win against Iowa State would have ended a frustrating season on a positive note.
But Iowa State junior tailback Darren Davis had his own seniors to protect.

"Darren did a great job," Allen said. "We just couldn't tackle him."
Kansas coach Terry Allen said he was impressed by Davis' effort.
With a three-point Iowa State lead in the fourth quarter, he took over. Davis carried the ball 17 times for 84 yards in the final period.
Linebacker Steve Bratten, who played in his final game for Kansas Saturday, echoed Allen's sentiments.
"We just missed tackles," Bratten said. "We missed the tackles we had made earlier in the game."
Allen said that he hoped to enter the fourth quarter in a close game with the advantage of strong south wind, which knocked down punts and passes all day.
Everything went according to his plan. The Jayhawks began the quarter with the ball and the wind trailing 23-20.
But the offense couldn't move the ball, and Davis helped the Cyclones control it on the ground for almost 12 of the quarter's 15 minutes.
For Bratten and the other seniors, such as linebacker Patrick Brown, it was a bitter end to a career at Kansas.
The players left the field under the
"I just hope that the young guys don't have the same problem next year." Brown said.

Despite the loss, Allen said he would remember the seniors fondly.
"I hate to see them bow out in this fashion," Allen said.
But he said that he had thought about the relationships he had developed with many of them in his two years at Kansas.
Brown said he also would leave with good memories of Kansas, especially the Aloha Bowl win
After the game, it didn't matter to the Kansas players that Davis carried the ball every Iowa State offensive play except for an incomplete pass, a punt and two knee-downs by quarterback Todd Bandhauer.

Robertson's leadership boosts Javhawks

without playmakers Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce around this season, questions arose as to who would step into the leadership role.
After the first few games, Ryan Robertson has stepped admirably into that position.
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sports writer
Saturday night, the 6-4 senior scored a career-high 21 points on 6-of-9 shooting and hit four of six three-point shots against Fort Hays State University.
"I guess you could say I shot the lights out," Robertson said.
Allen Field House had lighting problems during the game, causing the scoreboard to go out on two different occasions.
Robertson scored 15 of his 21 points in the first half.
"Icredit my success tonight to my teammates," Robertson said. "They did a great job of finding me in the zone. Anytime a scorer gets off to a good start, it's good for their confidence, and it gets things going early."
Robertson also contributed in other ways. In 28 minutes, he had five assists, two blocked shots and no turnovers.
Coach Roy Williams pointed
"His performance was good, not just shooting but also defensively," Williams said. "He also helped lead the younger players, keeping everyone where they were supposed to be going."
Robertson opened the second half with a three-pointer, which gave the Jayhawks a 29-point lead at 58-29.
He broke his single-game scoring high when he hit all three free throws after being fouled by Chris Danner.
to Robertson's leadership as another key point in the game.
The addition of freshman Jeff
Boschee at point guard has allowed Robertson more time as shooting guard this season.
As a point guard, you have to create the shot off the dribble," Robertson said. "As you all know, I am better at the catch and shoot. Boschee has helped me with my role because he has to worry about calling the plays, and I can concentrate on other things like making shots and defense."
From here, the Jayhawks have to look ahead to a tough stretch of games during which they will play UNLV, Kentucky and Pepperdine.

Tigers stomp Kansas volleyball
Jayhawks have to make up for losses during next games
by Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
The fact that the Kansas volleyball team lost to Missouri Friday means that it will have to win both of its last two matches to finish the season with a winning record.
The win ended a six-match losing streak, and coach Ray Bechard said that he was glad that the Jayhawks finally found a way to win.
When the 15-15 Jayhawks take the court at home against No. 24 Texas Tech next Friday, they will have to play better than they did last weekend. After falling to Missouri in Columbia, Mo., last Friday three games to one, they narrowly pulled out a five-game win at Iowa State on Saturday.
"It was a pretty remarkable match," Bechard said. "We survived tonight."
K an s as extended a match to five games for only the second time this season against Iowa State (13-15, 15-5, 7-15, 15-13 and 15-9). After battling back from an 11-4 deficit and winning the fourth game, the Jayhawks hed the momentum to win the fifth game.
VOLLEYBALL
But the Jayhawks couldn't overcome Missouri in the teams' second meeting this season. The Tigers rallied to win three consecutive games after dropping the first one (15-11, 11-15, 5-15 and 11-15). Bechard said that Missouri's serving made the difference in the loss.
"Missouri had 15 aces on the match, while we just had eight," Bechard said. "That's not going to allow you to win a volleyball match."
Outside hitter Moira Donovan led the Jayhawks against Missouri with 20 kills, followed by middle blocker Amanda Reves who posted 18. Setter Laura Rohde contributed 10 kills and 64 assists.
Next weekend, the Jayhawks put a winning season on the line at home Friday and Saturday. It will be announced Wednesday if they will play in the new Horsej Family Athletics Center.

Rock Chalk Revue toasts 50th year, picks skits
By Sarah Hale Kansan staff writer
Minutes before announcing the 1999 Rock Chalk Revue participants, more than 80 students toasted the show's 50th year with apple cider.
The students celebrated the show's past successes and looked forward to this year's production, which will be March 11-13. 1999
Rock Chalk Revue is an annual production of five 25-minute skits put on by about 200 students from five pairs of living organizations.
Money raised from the show will be donated to United Way of Lawrence.
"With this being the 50th year, we're hoping that it will be the best ever," said Alex Locke, executive director of the revue. "All of groups were great, and it made choosing the top five difficult."
Ten groups, each made up of one fraternity and one sorority, turned in notebooks Nov. 6. The notebooks contained a skit script and information about the music, costumes, set design and characters.
From there, a panel of judges who have no connection with the University of Kansas decided which skits would be the best for Rock Chalk.
Last night, at the annual In-Out announcement in the Kansas Union Ballroom, representatives waited intently to see if their

stuck in a deep depression, Cathy Campbell's anger had taken over her mind. She couldn't even form a complete sentence.
There was only one way Campbell, a 39-year-old Lawrence resident, now working on her third degree, could release all the fears
she held inside.
"I was a vegetable, a goner until I started using art as a therapy tool," Campbell said. "Through art I could express my deep-heated anger and all the sadness inside of myself."
Art therapy, a growing psychoanalytical field that uses arts as treatment, is not offered at the University of Kansas.
Even though the career has been around for more than 25 years and the current degree holders find jobs, Kansas college administrators and Board of Regents representatives say they are afraid of flooding the market with art therapists.
"I think there's a KU lack of knowledge about art therapy," Campbell said.
When Campbell came back to the University for the second time more than 10 years ago, she asked about art therapy. The School of Fine Arts told her that there was no demand for the career and to choose something else.
That's not what they say at Emporia State University, where they have the only art therapy program in Kansas.
"We have lots and lots of calls from students inquiring about art therapy," said Nancy Knapp, director of the art therapy program at Emporia State. "Some ask casually what the program is about, while others want to find out how to become

Car stereo ordinance expected to be approved
Lawrence city commissioners will vote to approve an ordinance tonight that would prohibit the operation of car stereos that are audible more than 50 feet from the vehicle.
That night, commissioners voted 4-0 to allow city staff to draft a loud car stereo ordinance. If the commission votes to approve the ordinance tonight, it would take effect on Jan. 1.
On Oct. 27, commissioners received reports from lt. Ray Urbanek of the Lawrence Police Department and Dave Corliss, director of the city's legal services.
Corliss said the minimum fine for violators of the ordinance would be $50. Urbanek said that the ordinance would be enforced in Lawrence Municipal Court, much like a traffic infraction.

CIA becomes selective after Gore's rejections
NEW YORK — The CIA is being more selective about reports they send to the White House because Vice President Al Gore's office rejected several alleging corruption by top Russian officials. The New York Times reported yesterday.
One CIA report detailing alleged evidence against former Prime Minister Viktor Chernomyrdin was sent back with a barnyard epithet scrawled across its cover, intelligence officers familiar with the incident told the Times.
The message, they said, was that Gore did not want to hear anything bad about Chemomyrdin, who as prime minister of Russia in 1995 had regular discussions with Gore about U.S.-Russia relations.
As a result, the CIA has become more selective about distributing its information, agency analysts told the Times. They decided not to circulate a report that a German businessman paid $1 million for a meeting with Chernomyrdin, the newspaper said.
Chermomydrina has been accused publicly of enriching himself through his influence over Gazprom, Russia's natural gas monopoly.
Gore would not comment on the reports, the Times said.
"I never discuss top-secret documents," he told the newspaper.

Seat-belt campaign to begin during holiday
More than 5,000 law enforcement agencies are participating in a national campaign during Thanksgiving week to make sure children and adults are buckled up, said the Air Bag and Seat Belt Safety Campaign, sponsor of the semiannual crackdown.
The safety campaign invited officers from all 50 states to kick off the effort at a ceremony yesterday with Transportation Secretary Rodney Slater.
Car crashes are the leading cause of death for American children. Last year, auto accidents took the lives of 2,087 youngsters up to age 15, according to government data.

Illness strikes Yeltsin for third time this fall
MOSCOW — Boris Yeltsin will work out of a hospital room for several days at least after he fell ill with pneumonia — the third time he has been sidelined by sickness in recent weeks.
The latest ailment revived worries about Yeitsin's ability to run a country mired in economic troubles. But his condition was not serious enough to stop him from meeting with Chinese President Jiang Zemin in the Central Clinical Hospital.
The 67-year-old Russian president was rushed to the hospital Sunday with pneumonia and a temperature of 102 degrees, the Kremlin said yesterday. He was being treated with antibiotics.
Yeltsin's condition remains constant, and he still has a slight temperature, presidential spokesman Dmitry Yakushkin said on Russia's NTV television yesterday.

Two KU students are candidates in Rhodes scholarship competition
By Chad Bettes Kansan staff writer
Two University of Kansas students have won spots in the Kansas finals of the Rhodes scholarship competition to be held on Dec. 1 and 2 in Lawrence.
In the state competition, a Rhodes committee will formally interview Jennifer Kimball. Ulysses senior, and Anna VanCleave, Overland Park senior, as well as get to know them at dinner and breakfast meetings at the KU Alumni Center.
Kimball and VanCleave will compete against about 10 other state finalists for the chance to advance to a seven-
state district competition. Only two Kansas candidates will advance to the district competition on Dec. 4 and 5 in Minneapolis.
Four scholarships will be awarded to students from the central-Plains states district which includes Kansas.
Kimball said that she was excited to find out she had advanced in the competition and that she was looking forward to the interviews.
The University application process took place last spring, and Kimball and VanCleave began the national application process during the summer.
Mary Klayder, assistant director of the KU honors program, said the KU candidates
had a good chance.
"These are two excellent representatives of the University," Klayder said. "They are bright and exciting young women."
The Rhodes scholarship program was founded in 1904 for studies at Oxford University in England. It is a highly competitive program in which candidates are expected to exhibit a high level of academic and leadership abilities.
Kansas candidates must either be residents of the state or attend universities in the state. Twenty-three students from the University of Kansas have been named Rhodes Scholars in the history of the program.

"We are so completely surprised," said Joanna Pickering Overland Park senior and member of Alpha Delta Pi. "This is amazing. This is the payoff for three months of hard work and planning that was so draining at times. We're ready for what's next."
Jessie Oehmke, Derby sophomore and member of Kappa Delta sorority, said that she was upset her skit was not chosen but that she was pleased for the winners.

The new promotions poster, which honors the theme "Wonders Never Cease," also was revealed last night.

"The first thing that came to my mind was gold and silver and then stars," Evans said. "I was thinking about the cosmos and just started playing around with those ideas."
The theme "Wonders Never Cease" also is a play on words honoring the founder of the Rock Chalk Revue, Roy Wonder.
Delay granted in rape case
A KU student arrested for rape and sexual assault earlier this month appeared in Douglas County District Court yesterday afternoon for his preliminary hearing and requested it be postponed until after the holiday break.
By Keith Burner
Donald Smith, attorney for Gregory Hunsucker, Olathe freshman, told the court that because Hunsucker and the victims were KU students, finals and holiday breaks would interfere with the proceedings.
Kansan staff writer
until 1:45 p.m. Jan.26.
"It was my idea," Smith said. "I talked it over with the prosecution, and they agreed that was the best time for a trial."
Assistant District Attorney Rick Trapp had no objections, and Judge Jack Murphy granted Hunsucker a continuance
Smith said that he had reviewed all the police reports and that a plea bargain was not in the works.
"We are vigorously contesting and deny ing all charges," he said.
Hunsucker was unavailable for comment following the hearing.
Hunsucker was arrested Nov. 11 and charged with the rape of an Ellsworth Hall resident and the sexual battery of an Ellsworth employee.
He also faces a charge of furnishing alcohol to a minor.
Both incidents occurred Oct. 17 in two Ellsworth rooms.
Sgt. Troy Mallen of the KU Public Safety Office said both women were acquaintances of Hunsucker, 18. The victim of the alleged rape and Hunsucker had attended
a party in the hall that night.
The rape was reported to have occurred between 1:05 and 1:15 a.m., according to a police report filed Oct. 18 by the victim.
Another police report said the sexual battery occurred between 3 and 3:15 a.m.
The victim of the alleged sexual battery, a hall staff member, was present at the gathering in a staff capacity when she was harassed, Mailen said.
Mailen said the information from the victim of sexual battery arose from a police investigation into the charges of rape and drinking alcohol to a minor.
This was the first reported rape on campus this semester.
In 1997, rapes and no sexual batteries were reported to the KU Public Safety Office.
Bars join Campus BLAST to push designated drivers
Maïen said Hunsucker was allowed to turn himself in at his attorney's request.

Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator, wants people who are out drinking to have a BLAST.
Campus BLAST-Building Local Alternatives for Safe Transportation- is a new program working to get students home safely after a night out at the bars. The program, Skalla said, tries to promote groups to make sure they have a designated driver.
With the support of 20 bars and counting, the program offers free soft drinks for designated drivers at bars, along with key chains, cups, posters and matchbooks, all with Safe Ride's phone number printed on them. The Kansas Department of Transportation is footing the bill for everything but the soft drinks.
PARTICIPATING BARS:
"We encourage people to have a designated driver," Skalla said. "But if people don't, we want them to be aware that Safe Ride exists."

Jessica Rucker, Burdett freshman, said she and her friends took turns being the designated driver.
"I had no idea that there were bars out there who would give me free soft drinks because I'm the designated driver," she said. "I think that's a great incentive for people who aren't drinking along with their friends."
Skalla said she was trying to get more bars to join the Campus BLAST program.
Aquil said he thought most of his customers knew of the benefits of being a designated driver.
two accident victims improve, third man's condition worsens
Police continue to investigate the hit-and-run accident that hospitalized three 20-year-old KU students Saturday morning.
The students had been improving,but the condition of one worsened yesterday.
Justin Barron, San Ramon, Calif., junior had improved from critical to serious condition during the weekend, but regressed to critical condition yesterday, said Bob Halliann, University of Kansas Medical Center representative.
Hallinan would not comment further but did say that Clinton Rousseau, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, who was taken to the Med Center about the same time as Barron, had improved from critical to serious to fair condition.
The third student, Mark Talley, Leawood sophomore, was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital after the accident. His condition has improved steadily since the accident, a hospital nursing supervisor reported yesterday. His condition has been upgraded from good to satisfactory condition.
Police suspect a 42-year-old Bonner Springs man of running over the three students in his truck about 2 a.m. while the three students were crossing Massachusetts Street near Sixth Street.
Police said that when they detained the man, he refused a breathalizer test but that he was given a field sobriety test, which he failed. Police then took a blood sample from the man.
Police said they expected results within two weeks.

Giving time to underprivileged good way to celebrate Thanksgiving
This Thanksgiving, while everyone is loosening their belts in preparation for hours of football, it is important to keep in mind that not everyone is this fortunate. While many of us are torn between whether we should eat that second piece of pie, there are those who go hungry in Lawrence. Rather than being racked with guilt, all of us can lend a helping hand in the community.
There are several charities in Lawrence that could use volunteers during the holiday season. Traditionally, this is a busy time for charities that try to give some sense of joy to those who may not be able to fully participate in the holiday festivities. Many shelters and soup kitchens are swamped this time of year, and there is no better way to help these agencies
Students should help charities give to the needy during the holiday season.
than to give of your time.
The Salvation Army is one organization in Lawrence that could use volunteers. Located at 946 New Hampshire St., it operates a coat distribution, a toy distribution and perhaps most visible, a bell-ringing fundraiser. Meals are served at the shelter every night from 8:30 to 10:30, and a special holiday meal is served Dec. 9. To find out more about the myriad of programs at the Salvation Army, you can call 843-4188, or stop by the office.
The Douglas County Community
Center could use volunteers today to help pack boxes for distribution. They will be working at the Episcopal Church at 1011 Vermont St.
You need only spare time to help out during the holidays. If you can't find time between holiday plans and classes, you can drop canned goods off at the Salvation Army. If you are leaving for break, drive by their office on your way out of town.
So this year, give your thanks through a show of charity and good will. To pretend that people go without food and shelter only during the holidays is naive. It would be ideal if everyone could help out every day. Volunteering this holiday season could become a habit you carry on throughout the year.

International students need turkey, too
Thanksgiving is unique to the United States. Unlike Christmas, which is celebrated all around the world, Thanksgiving is a U.S. tradition with American food for American families.
This is all the more reason to not forget about the University's international student community during Thanksgiving break. It is an opportunity to share with these visitors the most revered holiday that this country can call its own.
International Students Services has a home-stay program through which it pairs KU international students with host families in Kansas for either Thanksgiving Day or for the entire break, from tomorrow to Sunday.
Mike Ediger, assistant director of
Students should invite international students to share in the Thanksgiving holiday.
International Student Services and home-stay coordinator, said the program was successful at placing students in homes throughout Kansas. He said a family in Burns had been a host family since 1954 and every year drives up to Lawrence to pick up a group of international. Thanksgiving guests.
said he has placed 32 in the home-stay program.
Granted, the program is geared toward those international students that have recently gone through new student orientation and may know very few people at the University.
But that still leaves the majority of international students potentially studying in Watson Library when they should be spreading cranberry sauce — unique to the northeastern United States — over an inch-thick slab of turkey.
However, of the roughly 1,500 international students on campus, Ediger
So for KU students lucky enough to get to know one or many of our visitors from abroad, consider bringing them into your homes and sharing the Thanksgiving holiday with them.

Perspective
Family relations more meaningful than a smile
have been permanently inspired by an old man whom I hardly know.
Traditionally, at this time of year, I am repeatedly asking my mom if she knows which
relatives are coming to our house for Thanksgiving and if she has stocked up on enough eggnog — I realize that some people think eggnog is gross. If you were to freeze eggnog and then let it thaw a little, I bet it would have somewhat of a slick, alien, gelatinous consistency. In this case, I too thoroughly would dislike eggnog. As it is, I enjoy it — but this year Thanksgiving is different, and my usual holiday considerations seem to carry little importance.

The Saturday before last, my dad's dad, who has been battling emphysema with the assistance of about 30 percent of one lung, was rushed to St. Joseph's Hospital in Kansas City, Mo., because he could not breathe. Thursday, I went along with my dad and my little brother to visit him, and I saw a completely different man than the one I thought I knew. The short, strong and witty figure, who I remember from my childhood, barely even sunk into the white and blue hospital sheets on which he lay — unshaven and physically spent.
Despite his weak condition — which I was told had drastically improved since the previous Saturday — he was elated to see us, and as we encircled the bed, he delivered a smile that lit up the otherwise dim, melancholy room. Standing at the foot of the bed with a big smile and a loss for words, I realized, for the first time, that all of my life I have been content with my grandpa's smile, his wisecracks and the underlying, veiled wisdom that often hides within his humor.
I never ventured to learn a great deal more about my grandpa, a man who has lived through and experienced most of the triumph and tragedy of this century. Everything about what this man has experienced I have learned from secondary sources.
I'd like to know what it was like during the 1930s and 1940s, when people used to fill the night clubs in downtown Kansas City and dance into the wee hours of the morning. Not once have I set aside just a moment to ask my grandpa what it was like. He played the drums in downtown Kansas City when swing was the
rage. He sat up there and watched those people go nuts, and when he wasn't playing, I'm sure he was dancing. What it must have been like.
It is amazing how, for 22 years, I have walked up to my grandpa — whether as a child seeking a hug or a young adult seeking a handshake — and never really looked at him. I always wrapped my arms around him or shook his hand in exchange for nothing more than a big smile and a few words that would assure me that he would always be there to greet me, no matter what — I feel pretty selfish and ignorant looking back, but I am just glad I had the chance to walk into that hospital room and finally see the man in his entirety.
I realize that maybe he would love to tell me about all of the things he has experienced during his life, and maybe he wouldn't. I'll ask anyway, but I am sure that he is just as content seeing me and exchanging smiles. This is what motivated me, what will forever be a source of inspiration. I'm positive he has lived a long, hard life, and you won't know if he has any complaints because he always wears that smile. I hope that one day I will be able to conduct myself with at least a fifth of his demeanor.
My roommate has me hooked on watching old WWII movies. Although I am certain these movies must be tame accounts of the way the war actually progressed and the way the men who fought the war actually felt, I may never know for sure. I still have not asked my grandpa about the war, which is odd because he was a paratrooper who landed in France and actually fought in the Battle of the Bulge in Belgium. He sat in the snowy trenches — how he must have felt, how all of those men who fought must have felt — what the atmosphere must have been like before and after the war. If I never ask, I'll never know, and I think that would be a huge injustice to this man and myself.
With a simple smile and a few words Thursday, my grandpa impacted me in an immeasurable way. As we neared the end of our short visit at the hospital, talk of Thanksgiving inevitably arose, and my grandpa, who has made it to Thanksgiving each year — often just in time to mash the potatoes — said a few words with as much air as he could muster:
"Hope to see everybody on Thanksgiving."
That is all that mattered as he lay there, cramped in a small hospital room, hardly able to breathe. I have every confidence that he will be there on Thanksgiving. He lives for it, among other things.

Thanksgiving festivities not just a welcome home
Thanksgiving is almost upon us. Yeah,
you're thinking: another column in the
newspaper about Thanksgiving.
Whoon-di-doo.

opinion @ kansan.com
I know you're wondering if Kansan columnists ever think about real-world issues such as race relations, the environment or alternative systems of government. Why don't we write any really sophisticated columns that make people think instead of making them groan?
I don't know. Frankly, I don't care. I just want to talk about Thanksgiving, so leave me alone.

Thanksgiving is a time
for joy and remembrance; it is a time to celebrate our common humanity and give thanks for the good things in life and not wallow in the bad.
I can't remember the last time my family sat around the table and restrained ourselves from our outrageous feast while we gave thanks for the good things in life. Come to think of it, I don't think we ever done that.
In fact, I've only known one friend whose family gave thanks for the food on the table. They were Mormons. I don't know if that is a common Mormon practice, but because that was my only experience with giving thanks, it has set a precedent in my mind for Mormon families.
It wasn't even Thanksgiving.
Maybe this year I'll give thanks. I guess I've got a lot of things to give thanks for. My heart is still beating. Technological innovations have developed corrective lenses so that the world doesn't look so fuzzy to me. They are serving turkey and gravy at the Kansas Union — at least they did Wednesday.
Although I may give thanks, it has never seemed like that was the spirit of Thanksgiving. I've always thought that the spirit of Thanksgiving was gluttony. I've always thought that the point of the holiday was to eat until you could hear your stomach stretching like a balloon about to burst.
Maybe I'm too cynical, but I've always felt like every major holiday was designed to facilitate some sort of mass sin.
Easter is for chocolate consumption. Birthdays are for vanity. The Fourth of July is for pyromaniacs. Halloween is much like Easter chocolate biodegradable, with the only
chocoholic binging season — with the only
difference being that the colors are black and orange instead of happy, fuzzy-bunny pastels. But, they both deal with the living dead. Easter is for resurrection, and Halloween is for ghosts.
But, along with the family cooking comes the family. Although, later on you will probably look forward to seeing your parents, grandparents and siblings, right now you're trying to figure out ways to conceal all of the bad things you've been doing since you entered college.
They'll ask you about your grades. You'll find yourself saying things like this: "Well, I could either end up with all A's or all D's, so expect either one." Your parents might ask you what kind of grades you need to keep your scholarship. You'll tell them that you get the scholarship regardless of whether you write a brilliant new theory on the nature of light or light up the campus for several days by burning down Wescoe Hall.
For some of you, this will be your first Thanksgiving since coming to college. Relish it. You will soon figure out, if you haven't already, how your mother or grandma is a much better cook than you. This may be the first home-cooked meal you've had in more than three months.
Christmas isn't really a day for sin — unless you count excessive caroling. In fact, it is the one day of the year when we tell the world that we love it, despite the way we act the other 364 days. New Year's Eve is, well, New Year's Eve
You may even find yourself using the word "diverse" often. Maybe you'll just say "Good lord, there are a lot of white folks there!" You might talk about all of the strange people you've seen in Lawrence. Your comments might range from: "Well, there are some people who are pretty...different" to nudging your uncle Chuck and saying "The place is full of freaks." Of course, several years from now you'll find yourself in my position, saddened, thinking "Where did all of the freaks go? I miss the freaks."
This year I think I will give thanks. I'm going to give thanks for the fact that I'm nearly done with school, for the fact that my parents still claim me and for the not-so-steady source of income that the University Daily Kansan provides me. This year, also, I think I will give thanks for the freaks. Thank you, freaks, thank you all.
— an amateur's night to binge drink. And then there's Thanksgiving.

Holiday lights to brighten downtown
NATIONAL WAY

Shoppers will be able to look at downtown Lawrence in a different light this holiday season.
This year, the downtown skyline will be lined with 8,000 white light bulbs courtesy of Christmas Decor of Lawrence. For the first time, lights will be strung across the tops of buildings on Massachusetts Street from Sixth to 11th streets.
Tinsel decorations, which have spruced up downtown lampposts for holiday seasons since the mid- 1970s, have been replaced with new holiday banners.
Light strung across trees along Massachusetts Street sidewalks will be illuminated along with the new skyline lights during the annual holiday lighting ceremony at 6 p.m. Friday.
Marcia McFarlane, administrator for Downtown Lawrence Inc., the event's sponsor, said downtown merchants were eager to see if the new lights and decorations would boost downtown shopping.
"They are excited to see what
kind of increase the new lights will bring," she said.
David Longhurst, president of Downtown Lawrence Inc., said downtown merchants wished to install the lights in previous years.
"We have tried the idea before, and it met with too many obstacles," he said.
Longhurst said merchants were delighted to see their dream of holiday lights along the downtown skyline happen this year.
Although the lighting ceremony will not start until 6 p.m., a choir including Free State High School students, and members of the Lawrence High School band will perform at 5:30 p.m.
After the light switch is flipped at 6 p.m., Santa will appear on the roof of Weaver's, 901 Massachusetts St. Santa will be rescued by the Lawrence Fire Department and will descend 100 feet on a fire truck ladder.
After the lighting ceremony, shoppers will be able to take advantage of extended holiday shopping hours offered by some downtown merchants, McFarlane said.
Students urged to take care during holiday travel
By Carolyn Mollett
Kansas staff writer
It's time to travel.
And Thanksgiving season is the busiest travel time of the year for motorists, said Judy Gilchrist, public relations assistant at the Kansas Turnpike Authority.
Gilchrist said Christmas traffic was spread out through a longer period of time; there was not a rush of people to the degree that existed during Thanksgiving.
Holiday traffic combined with adverse weather conditions and road construction potentially could be a nasty mix.
But the weather this year should not delay traffic, and highways across the state that have been under construction are opening for the holiday season, experts said.
Larry Schultz, meteorologist for the National Weather Service, said no precipitation was expected through Friday. He said temperatures would continue to be unseasonably warm with highs in the 50- to 60-degree range and lows in the 30-degree range. Beyond Friday, Schultz did not foresee any changes in the weather pattern.
Any delays in holiday travel probably will be caused by increased traffic.
Sgt. John Eichkorn, Kansas Highway Patrol representative, said, "Troopers will be out in force."
He said there were three fatalities last year on Kansas highways during the Thanksgiving travel period. Eichkorn said the highway patrol's goal was to have a fatality-free Thanksgiving.
The best approach for motorists is to fasten seat belts, put children in secure safety seats and drive defensively. Eichkorn said.
Troopers will be watching for crash-causing violations such as speeding, tailgating and illegal lane changing. Eichkorn said.
Gilchris said the largest amount of turnip traffic was along the
The Kansas highways that recently opened after road construction are:
15 K-15 south of Abilene
19 K-92 west of Oskaloosa
23 US-83 south of Oakley
27 US-77 north of Junction City
24 US-24 west of Clay Center
10 I-70 near Topeka, Salina and Junction City

the evening, she said. On Sunday night, it will become busy again as holiday travelers return, she said. Gilchrist recommended that students and other travelers allow extra time for travel during those peak times.
Kansas-Oklahoma border. But traffic will be heavier than normal everywhere tomorrow afternoon and into
Kim Athon, representative for the Kansas Department of Transportation, said Interstate 70, which crosses Kansas from east to west, had been under construction until recent weeks when the sites were completed or closed for the winter.
By rush hour this evening, Interstate 70 will be open through the Topeka area, where construction and detours had caused delays, she said.
Athon also said Interstate 135 might have temporary lane restrictions near Salina and south of Interstate 70.
Athon said the department recommended that travelers bring emergency supplies, travel main roadways during storms, refrain from driving when sleepy and allow extra time for travel.
Holiday stuffing can be filling with unwanted extra calories
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
It is the perfect recipe for weight gain Thanksgiving Day, a long holiday weekend and great food.
"Students are more sedentary during the break and are exposed to richer, more fattening foods," said Ann Chapman, registered dietitian for Wakkins Memorial Health Center. "That combination means gaining a few extra pounds."
While it may be tempting to fast all day prior to the big meal, dietitians said students should stick to a normal schedule of three meals a day.
"Eat a good breakfast and lunch," Chapman said. "During the main meal, take smaller portions of food dense in calories. For example, take a small amount of dressing, and eat dinner rolls and mashed potatoes without butter."
Robyn Stuewe, registered dietitian for the Midland Dairy Council, suggested a meal trade-off to avoid the increase in calories.
"Replace food dips and salad dressings with yogurt-based dips and dressings," she said.
The dietitians also said to avoid nibbling while cooking the Thanksgiving meal and lingering at the holiday table after a meal to avoid continuous eating.
Adrienne Moore Baxter, licensed registered dietitian for the University of Kansan Medical Center, said people gained an average of six pounds during the holiday stretch from Thanksgiving to New Year's Day and that meals eaten in a social setting were 44 percent larger.
She suggested that people cut 100 calories from their daily calorie intake and burn an extra 100 calories by taking a one-mile walk or jog with a family member.
The saying "everything in moderation" has never been truer than for Thanksgiving Day.

Watson Library will be closed tomorrow
Book drops will remain accessible. Other campus libraries will be open, although in a reduced schedule due to Thanksgiving recess.
The Libraries regret any inconvenience. The repairs must be made sometime, and all University officials involved in the decision felt it would be better to close when many students, faculty and staff will be on vacation than to close after classes resume next week.
In order to install a new electrical transformer, during which the public cannot be in the building, Watson Library will close at 8:00 p.m. tonight and will be closed all day Wednesday as well as on Thanksgiving Day. It will re-open on Friday morning at 8:00 a.m.

Libraries lack space, funds
Yearly book purchases can require two miles of shelving
Space lit often a p library be said the n science was p torical co constantly materials.
Widespread space shortages and outdated facilities threaten the integrity of the University of Kansas Libraries as the new century approaches. And no concrete solutions are in place to remedy the problems.
Seven of the eight libraries on the Lawrence campus are already at or near functional capacity, and William Crowe, vice chancellor and dean of libraries, said the conditions in libraries such as Watson Library were not ideal for preserving collections.
"If this situation slips a few more years, it will be an inescapable crisis," Crowe said.
Space limitations are often a problem in the library business. Crowe said the nature of library science was preserving historical collections while constantly adding current materials. Space is in constant demand, but funding is not available to build enough libraries.
The University adds close to two miles of shelving every year to accommodate new purchases.
"There is no practical way in our lifetime of solving the collection space problem in our current locations," Crowe said.
Some library additions have been completed or are underway.
But in most cases, the new space is being exchanged for old space rather than adding to the libraries' overall storage capacity.
For instance, in the spring of 1999, the Government Documents Library will move into a new library addition called Anschutz 2 North under Budig Hall. The space in Malott Hall where Government Documents is currently housed will revert to classroom or office space, resulting in no net gain in space for the libraries.
In another case, an addition opened this year and was filled primarily with books that were being held in storage. It does not provide space for future items.
The Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy being built on the West Campus could provide temporary relief. Not only will it house the archives of former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole, Crowe said he hoped the institute would include an additional space called a book and archival record depository.
There are a few bright spots for the libraries.
In the depository, the least-frequently accessed library materials could be stored but still checked out with 24-hours notice.
The Gorton Music Library will triple
its available space when it moves into a new area in the Murphy Hall expansion.
Vic Cardell, musi c librarian, said the expansion was coming
just in time for his library because it would be at 100 percent capacity by the time the new space was ready.
"I think the administration is doing its best to meet our needs, but it is a difficult situation," Cardell said. "We're reaching a critical point."
When the expanded music library is ready, the current library space will be used for other academic purposes.
Alexandra Mason, Spencer librarian, said her library also was extremely pressed for space. The Spencer Research Library holds a large number of archival collections for the University and the state.
"I'd love to expand, but it's a matter of money and University priorities," Mason said.
To provide a historical perspective, she related a legend about books being stored many years ago in the bathrooms and hallways of Watson Library.
"Libraries are really opposed to depriving readers of materials they need," Mason said.

"If this situation slips a few more years, it will be an inescapable crisis."
Bill Crowe Dean of Libraries
Students there led the charge for improved facilities by staging a one day sit-in at the former Farrell Library. K-State students also took a proactive approach by proposing and approving a student fee increase, she said.
Eventually, a $30 million library renovation and expansion was approved. Students and private donors contributed $5 million each, and the state spent $20 million.
Now called Hale Library, the library has become a key landmark at K-State. Jan Crow also said student use had surged at the library since its completion in 1997, helped by such amenities as 24-hour study areas and food and beverage service.
"It's all a competition for money," he said. "It's not a lack of advocacy."

Absence of art therapy program forces KU students to seek alternatives
NEW YORK

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ART THERAPY
1. What is art therapy?
A treatment for the developmentally, medically, educationally or socially impaired.
It is based on the knowledge of human developmental theories, which are implemented into art models. The treatment can be used to help with self-esteem, reality orientation,
solving problems, self-awareness, reconciliation with others and managing behavior.
2. Where is art ther-
correctional facilities,
schools, private practices,
shelters and with in-hospital
patients. People of all ages
and backgrounds can benefit
from art therapy. For example,
Menninger in Topeka uses art therapy to treat adult patients diagnosed with atina disorders.
3. When did art therapy begin?
People who lived along the Nile River hundreds of years ago used art to treat people with pain in Rafael's house.
with means. Before that, was an important communication tool used by the cavemen to talk with others. The field began to emerge in the United States in the early 20th century and became a distinct profession in the 1930s.
4. Are jobs available for art therapists?
Nancy Knap, art therapy program director at
Continued from page 1A
Emploria State University, said jobs were available for students who actively sought them. Because it has become a recognized profession, jobs have continued to open up. It is best for art therapy students to register with the American Art Therapy Association Inc. or other affiliates to find out about job opportunities.
involved."
So what happens to the 21st student, the 22nd and so on?
The Emporia State program typically has 10 graduates a year. Knapp said that ESU never accepted more than 20 students per year.
"We want to have graduates who will have no problems finding a job," Knapp said. "We wouldn't want to flood the market with too many students."
KU students interested in art therapy may not have the opportunity to be the 21st or 22nd student. Many who have inquired about possible programs run into obstacles right away.
KU: A Dead End
Lois Elmer, office manager for art and music education
tion and music therapy at the School of Education, takes inquiries from KU students with questions about art therapy.
"I don't know the undergraduate requirements for art therapy because we don't have it here," Elmer said. "I just tell them to go to Emporia."
Repeated attempts to ask Elmer about other KU officials who might have information about art therapy degrees and repeated attempts to reach other professors or advisers, all led back to Elmer. She contends that there are no professors or administrators at the University of Kansas
with additional information about art therapy.
The dead end at Elmer's desk and inadequate information about other art therapy programs are leading to additional problems for students who do want to pursue art therapy.
It is not clear whether the University is pursuing a policy of no overlapping programs at the Regents
universities or if it is just catering to market demands. The University of Kansas does teach music therapy, while Kansas State University has a horticulture therapy program.
Kim Wilcox, interim director of academic affairs with the Kansas Board of Regents, said that it was difficult to duplicate small programs within a single state. Not only does there have to be huge need from students, but the university has to have the facilities.
He agreed that it would be helpful for schools to offer introductory classes in programs that they do not have, such as a introduction to art therapy at the University of Kansas.
Because the University of Kansas does not have anything like introductory art therapy classes, Campbell has never learned more about the therapeutic technique that saved her life.
When she questioned the University about art therapy, nobody knew anything about the requirements or volunteer opportunities.
"It's too late for me now," she said. "I can't just pick up and go to another university. I'm too old to do that. But other students, they should be able to find out what art therapy is about, or other therapies."
There are places and ways to study art therapy, but KU students find they are at a disadvantage when they transfer.
Finding Alternatives
"AT KU it's very difficult to
major in both art and psychology, which is a requirement for our program," Knapp said. "Out of all of our students, KU students have this problem more than any other. There's just nobody to tell them soon enough that this is a requirement by the national organization of art therapy."
A former KU student who will graduate from the Emporia art therapy program in December, had that problem when he first transferred schools. Matt Smith, who earned a KU psychology degree, had to make up his art classes at Emporia.
"Since I didn't know, I had to overlap all my art classes and take an extra workload," Smith said.
Smith is now finishing up his 750 required internship hours at Bert Nash Community Mental Health Centers in Lawrence by working with eight adolescents who have problems in the typical school settings or have been diagnosed with severe depression. He does art projects with them to increase their self-confidence, help them open up to others and put their emotions onto paper.
His ultimate goal is to work with the children so that they can eventually be integrated back into regular schools.
ative way to handle frustration and the positive and negative emotions they feel."
He said that children with problems in school could easily adapt to using art to express themselves.
"I have this one child who really has trouble keeping his mouth shut," Smith said. "He's constantly talking out loud. But if I give him a pencil and paper, he can do dwell for a long time and concentrate on something. In the end, that makes him feel better about himself."
KU students are on their own if they decide to volunteer or pursue art therany.
Heather Wilkinson, Louisville, Ky., sophomore, said that she was upset that the University of Kansas was unable to guide her better.
"I realize that I'm going to have eventually change schools," Wilkinson said. "But you'd figure they'd help me with the undergraduate aspect and locating places to volunteer. I know I'd love to volunteer someplace, and I'm not the only one."
She has worked as a camp arts and crafts counselor to help children get their minds off of missing home. She also has worked as part of a program which helped 12- to 14-year-olds gain self-confidence by learning to draw.
Lawrence Arts Center and done art projects with preschool children.
"You can tell a lot about a child by looking at the way they express themselves through art," Harrison said. "Like with fingerpainting: some kids go crazy and paint the whole page, but others are real careful about each movement. Some others may just sit there zoning out everything."
Linda Reimond, director of the preschool program, said that the Arts Center did not analyze the art produced by the children. Instead, the teachers encouraged the children to work on their problem-solving skills and creative expression.
Each week, the 144 children enrolled paint, draw or play with clay.
Reimond said that she loved watching all the children and even the timid ones open up.
A parent who had volunteered at an elementary school told Reimond that she could always pick out the students who had gone to the Arts Center.
"They're always more willing to try new things and they have more confidence. They aren't
afraid of getting something wrong and they don't say 'I can't.' " Reimond said.
Knapp said that Nebraska, Iowa or New Mexico all had openings.

Campbell hopes the University will consider offering an introductory class. She said that she would take it, even though it did not meet any requirements for her current degree in textiles.
"Art therapy is like playing the lottery," she said. "You have to buy a ticket to win. KU needs to offer an introductory class before they will see the results."

Thanksgiving
University group supports holiday but not tradition of eating turkey
By Julie M. Sachs
Kansan staff writer
With the holiday eating season just around the corner, Proponents of Animal Liberation are advocating vegetarianism.
Michael Schmitt, Harrisonburg, Va., graduate student, and member of PAL, said the University group was not against the holiday season but that PAL just was opposed to the eating of meat.
Schmitt said that it was unfortunate that a holiday that was based upon giving thanks and being with loved ones had been centered around eating a turkey.
The group's opposition to eating the popular holiday poultry, and meat in general, was based upon the belief that one should treat animals better, protect the environment and protect personal health.
The onset of the Ellsworth Hall Turkey Bowling last Thursday also encouraged the group to voice its opinion on the treatment of turkeys.
"The conditions turkies are raised in slaughterhouses is just gruesome." Schmitt said.
Raising turkeys for eating purposes is marked with a cruel living environment, he said. Turkeys were confined by the thousands in huge warehouses; the birds are forced to stand in their own litter, he said.
The cramped environment can drive some of the birds crazy, which causes them to attack each other; to stop the turkeys from hurting each other, Schmitt said some poultry businesses cut off their beaks. This causes the birds pain and suffering.
Because of the cruel treatment of the traditional holiday turkey, PAL urges people to try vegetarianism on Thanksgiving and every day.
The world would be a better place if we stopped eating meat." Schmitt said.
Sarah Hoskinson, Lawrence freshman and member of PAL, said that the group was not just vocal during the holiday season.
"We advocate abstinence of meat year round." Hoskinson said.
Although Hoskinson said she would not be celebrating Thanksgiving this year, she said that if she did she would be celebrating without meat.
Thanksgiving less jovial for some
Indigenous people recall holiday's lies
For many Americans, Thursday will be Thanksgiving Day: A day to celebrate the arrival and survival of the Pilgrims in their new home.
By Carolyn Mollott
Kansan staff writer
But many politically conscious indigenous people refer to Thursday's holiday as Thankstaking because the first Thanksgiving was a time in which they were struggling to keep hold of the land that had been theirs for centuries.
Indigenous people here still are practicing the traditions that existed long before Europeans came to this continent, she said.
"Instead, I celebrate the survival of indigenous people." Towey said.
And Towey said she made a point of telling people how she felt about Thanksgiving.
Dan Wildcat, Haskell faculty member in the American Indian Studies Program and co-director of the Haskell Environmental Research Studies Center, said Thanksgiving could be viewed on a number of levels.
Elyse Towey, member of the Iowa Nation of Kansas and Nebraska and a member of First Nations Student Association, said she did take offense to the holiday.
He said it was a European holiday that honored indigenous people. But the same people who honor indigenous people on Thanksgiving also are the people who do not mind dishonoring indigenous people with tomahawk cheers and mascots like the Washington Redskins or the Kansas City Chiefs, Wildcat said.
Although Wildcat said he enjoyed spending time with his family on Thanksgiving, he also said indigenous traditions involved giving thanks daily and throughout the year for blessings.
Yellow Bird said the holiday was similar to Columbus Day because both were products of myth-making in America.
"They've been talked about and believed for so long that they've become

truth." Yellow Bird said.
Rather than the traditional celebration, many indigenous people talk about the oppression, slaughter and survival of their indigenous ancestors.
"I'm not saying this is a monolithic viewpoint." Yellow Bird said.
But Yellow Bird said it was a viewpoint shared by many indigenous people who were decolonized — they can see past social lies about events of the past.

Because Thanksgiving only happens once a year, my family seems to think they can recycle their sad little turkey jokes each November without my noticing. I never saw the humor in offering a vegetarian a drumstick or pointing and laughing at her slice of bean loaf. My family does.
Spreading some care
Of course, if you think these products sound amusing, you have not met my family. Not only did I have to consume my patties and my loaf with a big, fake smile pasted across my face, I had to endure the mockery of my nearest and dearest.
Commentary
Vegetarian Thanksgiving can be trying experience
By Steph Brewer Kansan staff writer
The next year, my mother, ever vigilant in her watch for new veggie delights, unearthed bean loaf. One of the reasons I stopped eating meat was to avoid things such as meat loaf. I just don't like the idea of eating food that has been mashed together and shaped like a log. Bean loaf was no exception.
When Thanksgiving rolls around, most people's thoughts turn to turkey. However, the minds of vegetarians turn elsewhere. As a former vegetarian — I have since caved in and started eating fish — my thoughts were usually along the lines of "What nasty meat substitute will my mother feed me this year?"
Most vegetarians could survive on side dishes or prepare something themselves. However, the daughters of Jewish mothers who would sooner die than allow their children to consume a meal sans main dish and who jealously guard their kitchen from intruders on Thanksgiving, do not have this option.
My first year as a vegetarian, my mother plucked a jewel out of the freezer section of our local grocery store, "Tastes like Chicken." That was a great culinary memory. Apparently, the makers of "Tastes like Chicken" were afraid that if they printed the truth and called this miracle of soy, "Tastes like Crap," no one would buy it.

Connor, nutrition
educator at the Community Mercantile, 901 Mississippi St., said vegetarians should not regret the lack of turkey at Thanksgiving.
"It's a wonderful time for vegetarians too," she said.
"There are lots of other foods besides turkey," she said. "If you're looking for a replacement, we have a product called Tofurky."
G Connor offered me some food suggestions that do not pretend to taste like chicken and do not come in a loaf.
Tofurky is a turkey-shaped concoction made of tofu and tempeh and includes stuffing. O'Connor said the Community Mercantile also had handouts with recipes to make your own tofu turkey at home.
If you think cranberry sauce and garnish are the only foods a vegetarian can eat for Thanksgiving, you are wrong. A popular vegetarian dish for Thanksgiving is Tofu Turkey. Photo illustration by Augustus Anthony Piazza/KANSAN
However soy isn't for everyone. Even O'Connor agreed that "Tastes like Chicken" didn't sound like a fun Thanksgiving option.
"That might send people screaming from the table," she said.
Jill Richardson, Lawrence junior, said that she did not like meat substitutes.
"Just the taste of meat makes me sick." she said.
Richardson said she just eats the side dishes at Thanksgiving dinner.
For those who want more than potatoes but do not want to brave bean loaf or tofu turkey, O'Connor suggested being creative and trying things such as corn pudding, pumpkin dishes or
casseroles.
"In other words, don't stay in the groove of turkey, mashed potatoes and gravy," she said. "Branch out. Have fun."
I agree with O'Connor; Thanksgiving
should be an enjoyable holiday for all. I don't need a drumstick on my plate to have a good time. On the other hand, even turkey might be better than bean loaf...
No time for turkey for many workers in Lawrence area
By Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
While most University of Kansas students and faculty plan to spend Thanksgiving Day eating turkey and watching football games on television, various workers in the Lawrence community will have to punch their time cards.
jason Coen, executive chef at Shalor's, 701 Massachusetts St., will be busy preparing a Thanksgiving buffet. Shalor's is one of the few Lawrence restaurants that will be open on Thanksgiving.
tnanksgiving will be a work day as well for Chuck Woodling, sports editor for the Lawrence Journal-World. 609 New Hampshire St.
"I'll make other people happy," Coen said. "A lot of out-of-town guests and elderly people can't or don't want to cook an elaborate meal."
"In this business you got to work on holidays," Woodling said.
David Nickol, manager at Liberty Hall Video, 642 Massachusetts St., said he thought the store would be busier than usual for a Thursday.
Shafer expected Dillons would be busy that day. "People will come in for last-minute items like rolls, butter and sweet potatoes," she said.
Nor will Thanksgiving be a day off for Debbie Shafer, cashier at Dillons, 1740 Massachusetts St.
"I volunteered to work because we don't have
"It a day most people will have off," he said. "A lot of them will rent videos."
It also will be the same workday routine for Fletcher Miller, physician in the emergency room at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Maine St.
"We pretty much understand that we don't have much of a choice when the holidays roll around because we're a 24-hour, service-oriented facility," Miller said.
"I volunteered to work because we don't have enough help," she said.
For Brooke Baird, registered nurse, it will be her first Thanksgiving away from her family.
"But I'll get to come here and be with my coworkers," she said. "They're like my extended family."
Miller said they expected to be less busy than usual because students tended to go home for the holiday.
Capt. Phil Kuhnert, Lawrence-Douglas County Fire & Medical Station 1,746 Kentucky St., will be on duty as well.
"We'll cook a turkey and have Thanksgiving dinner," Kuhnert said. "If there's a call, we'll get up and do our job and then come back and carry on with our holiday activities."

Commentary Spirits, support high for runners in NCAA race championship
I knew that we were headed to a sport with a different following yesterday morning as we drove to Rim Rock Farm for the NCAA Division I and II Cross Country National Championships.
Tired of waiting and afraid they might miss part of the races, people were jumping out of their cars, which had backed up for a couple of miles, and running toward the course.
At times, it looked as if the fans from Stanford, Arkansas, Michigan State and all parts in between were running more
than the men and women participating in the championships.

They were vocal and visual in their support of their runners.
near the runners crossing the finish line. The crowd, populated with people in school colors, sweatshirts and warmups, was not the placid, solitary group of people you would expect to be chasing a group of runners.
Dave Loughran, Lake Stockdreher, Zeke Austin and Will Short were at the meet supporting their James Madison teammates. The four are members of the team but were not among the five runners who qualified for the championships.
"Most times people just stand around and scream at cross country meets," Loughran said.
Loughran and Short ran around the course screaming, carrying their flags, and Austin showed his team spirit with a sparkly, gold wig, blue and yellow face paint, and two foam hands, proclaiming James Madison as the No.1 university.
But he and his friends crafted two giant flags and attached them to PVC pipe. One flag had the school's initials, "JMU," and the other blue and gold banner had the school's mascot. "Dukes."
"I'm the superfan," Austin said.
While the four young men weren't the only fans who painted their faces, dressed to kill and ran screaming across the course, other fans were just as vocal but more subdued in their appearance.
Kathleen Ripley Loe wore Michigan State sweatshirt to support her son. Joel Leo.
She, her husband and another son toured the Rim Rock course Saturday. She said the family followed Joel to races across the country but she was impressed by the attendance and the course.
"I can't believe there are so many people here." Lea said.
The only disappointment of the beautiful day for me and other Kansas faithful was that Brian Jensen was the only Kansas runner in the field.
Kansas cross country greats, including former coach Bob Timmons who designed and maintains Rim Rock, Olympic 10,000 meter gold medalist Billy Mills and 1954 NCAA cross country national champion AI Frame had returned for a reunion and the meet.
Frame was impressed by the course, race and the crowd but not by the Kansas showing.
"The current state of the Kansas track program leaves a lot to be desired," he said. A competitive team shouldn't be too much to ask of a school that boasts distance alumni like Glen Cunningham, Frame, John Lawson, Mills, Wes Santee and Herb Semper.
Make no mistake, Saturday was a beautiful day. The fans ran joyously across the course chasing their runners. Maybe the Kansas fans will be able to do the same soon.

Rocky road slows 'Hawks early in championships
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
It wasn't the finish that he had hoped for, but Brian Jensen will take it.
Jensen was Kansas' only representative at yesterday's NCAA Cross Country Championships at Rim Rock Farm. Despite a slow start, Jensen recovered to finish 50th out of 247 finishers with a time of 31:24.8, nearly two minutes behind the champion, Adam Goucher of Colorado.
"I started a little slow and was locked in for a long time, and I had a hard time getting out," he said. "There was a lot of pushing and shoving going on. Someone kicked my knee real hard, and I had pain for a little while. Once I started moving up and there was more room, I could concentrate on running more.
Jensen finished 10th out of all the unattached runners.
Overall in his satisfaction:
It was Jensen's worst finish of the season and his best time, but the course at Rim Rock had
"Overall, I'm satisfied."
"It was the first time in a long time that I've run in such a big race, and I didn't really know what to do," he said. "I had a lot of pressure on me. There were a lot of people coming out just to watch me. I don't like all that pressure."
Jensen finished 37th at the NCAA Pre-National meet on Oct. 10, also held at Rim Rock Farm. This time, Jensen said there was added pressure because he was the only Kansas runner, and he was on his home course.
"This is a very tough course to run on," he said. "It's the same for everyone though, so I'm not complaining. It's just as tough physically as it is mentally."
plenty to do with that.
Jensen easily finished ahead of the runner that defeated him by two seconds at the Midwest Regional. Illinois State's Chris Bailey finished a distant 83rd, more than 30 seconds behind Jensen.
Kansas coach Gary Schwartz said he was happy with Jensen's performance yesterday.
"He recovered well after a slow
start," Schwartz said. "He's savvy enough to realize what he needs to do. He fell behind early, and he started working his way up when he could."
Schwartz said that it was difficult to qualify a full team for the national championships and that it was a great accomplishment for Jensen to qualify for the championships and be able to place in the top 50.
"I would have loved to have a team here," Schwartz said. "Many people don't realize how difficult it is for an individual to qualify for the championships. Only 38 individuals out of thousands make it. We had participation in the national championships. It would have been no fun without anyone participating."

'Hawks won't rest during holiday, face tough teams
By Erin Thompson Kansan sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
Days of rest and relaxation await most students after today but not for 15 of some of the most prominent students on campus.
The No. 8 Kansas men's basketball team has only three days to ready for a tough game against UNL V Friday.
"I think we're going to have a good week of practice and come out hard against UNLV," said center Eric Chenowith.
After a dismal performance against Fort Hays State Saturday, the Jayhawks travel to Springfield, Mass., for the Tip-Off Classic. They doubt if they are ready for the level of skill they will face there and in Chicago at the Great Eight against No. 4 Kentucky next week.
"Hopefully with four good days of practice we'll get more ready," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "We're not ready to play against the level we're going to face the next seven games. Our people have to understand that and our players have to understand that."
UNLV is led by sophomore Kaspars Kambala, a 6-9 forward from Riga, Latvia. He was named the WAC Mountain Division Freshman of the Year and named to the All-Newcomer team. He was the team leader with nine double-doubles after averaging 11.6 points and 7.4 rebounds last season.
The Jayhawks are hoping T.J. Pugh will return to counter Kambala's height. Two weeks ago, Williams was hopeful Pugh would be able to play as early as last Saturday. But after

practicing a week ago, Pugh's foot swelled and an early return is doubtful.
The Jayhawks are missing the size the 6-8 forward brings to the lineup as well as Pugh's defensive consistency.
The injury bug continued to bite Kansas Saturday. Although there were no serious injuries, Chenwith received 11 stitches after taking a blow to the head, and Nick Bradford broke his big toenail in half after running into the press table.
Bradford said his toe was just a little sore but should be fine.
Junior forward Lester Earl's knee continues to swell after off-season surgery. Saturday, Earl looked as if his athletic abilities were making a comeback, but Williams warned fans not to get too excited and continued to limit the minutes Earl played.
Ed said better better Saturday:
"My strength is coming back."
Earl said. "I jumped unbelievably well (Saturday). Those are things that I think are the signs of getting stronger."
The Jayhawks have not put together 40 minutes of consistent play yet this season and hope to turn things around.
"We have to be mentally tough and go out and play 40 minutes," Bradford said. "We haven't put a 40-minute game up yet."

Women's basketball team tries to handle loss of starter
By Sam Mellinger
Kansan sportswriter
With the return of Suzi Raymont questionable after a knee injury this weekend in Hawaii, the No. 17 Kansas women's basketball team must go on.
For now, going on means heading to Los Angeles for the Loyola Marymount Thanksgiving Classic this weekend. The Jayhawks headed straight from Honolulu to Los Angeles yesterday in preparation for two games this weekend.
Kansas (2-2) takes on Austin Peay (0-2) Friday, then either LMU or Denver on Saturday.
The loss of the Jayhawks' senior co-captain moves Shandy Robbins into a starting role and means others will have to help fill
the void. In the first game without Raymant on Sunday, Kansas lost to Hawaii, 51-47. The team will not get official word on Raymant's availability for the rest of the season until it returns to Lawrence next week.
Austin Peay enters the game against Kansas after being on the short end of two blowouts. The Lady Govs lost their season opener, 88-71, to Kentucky on Nov. 15 despite 27 points from 6-1 center Quin Sullivan. Candie Smith, a 6-0 forward, added 12 points.
The Kentucky loss was close compared to the 94-53 beating the Lady Govs took from Western Kentucky Nov. 19.
Austin Peay is located in Clarksville, Tenn., and plays in the Ohio Valley Conference. Susie Gardner, who has compiled a

28-29 record in two seasons, including an 11-16 mark in 1997-98, coaches Ainley Peay.
As for Saturday's possible opponents, the Lions went 3-24 last season under Julie Wilhoit, who is in her fourth season at LMU. Sharmayne Murphy, a 5-8 senior guard, is the Lions' leading returning scorer after averaging 8.6 points per game last season.
KI
Denver was 12-15 last season under Fam Tanner, who is in her fourth season with the Pioneers. Emily Freeze, a 5-7 senior guard, is Denver's leading returning scorer. She averaged 8.2 points per game
One thing Kansas coach Marian Washington is sure to focus on this weekend is a quick start. The Jayhawks were notorious for their slow starts and strong finishes last season and have continued that trend this season.
last season.
Kansas fell behind early and trailed at halftime of two of three games in Hawaii. The Jayhawks were able to overcome a 25-14 deficit at the half against Minnesota.
Kansas couldn't overcome a slow start Sunday against Hawaii as a 32-18 halftime deficit was too much.
Going from Honolulu to Los Angeles for the last week won't affect the team's studies.
"We've got a great staff of people who make sure our student athletes get their homework done." Washington said. "That's always a priority."

In late August or early September, you'll have a chance to travel.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Looks like you've got a good opportunity, and if you're obedient, you'll most likely be successful. This is not the opposite of strong leadership. The best leaders are obedient to just about everybody. That's what makes them strong.
Taurus (A April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
You may not recognize a good opportunity if it's in an area that is unfamiliar to you. You may have to learn how to do something different, and that could be scary. The pay should be pretty good, however. Just make sure you'll be getting the money before you give too much effort.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.

Leo (Julv 23-Aua, 22): Today is a 7.
Your mate or partner could come up with an absolutely bizarre idea today. You may think it's ridiculous, but actually just the reverse is true. The idea just hasn't been completely worked out yet. Make the necessary corrections, and you'll be able to fly that thing.
Virago (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 5.

You might feel like you don't have any control over a strange situation at home, and that's a feeling you hate. Try changing your way of looking at it. That could affect the outcome. Don't fight with somebody who has different opinions. Listen instead and adapt.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You're probably a philosopher, not a scientist, but today would be a good day to study science, or even science fiction, the good of which becomes fact. The bad could come true too, and that's where the philosopher comes in. It's up to people like you to steer things in the right direction.
P
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Necessity is the mother of invention, and she's going to be active in your life today. She may be bossing you around, telling you to check items off those lists. Today, as you hustle and bustle about, watch for ways to make and save money. You could discover some interesting new ones.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
You're looking good today. You're creative and bold — just the person you've always wanted to be. Even better, you've got a team that wants to play your way They're just waiting for you to tell them what to do. Conditions are similar tomorrow.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
You probably are getting a little squirmy. Rules need to be followed. You need to communicate with people who pull the strings and provide what you want and need.
You hate it when this happens. You feel like they're talking down to you, and maybe they are. Don't take them too seriously, and they'll be easier to deal with.

Two Cyclones among Big 12 players of week
DALLAS — Iowa State running back Darren Davis, Oklahoma safety Rodney Rideau and Iowa State kicker Jamie Kohl have been named the Big 12 players of the week.
Davis rushed for 184 yards and a touchdown on a whopping 43 carries and lead the Cyclones to a 23-20 victory against Kansas. Davis became just the sixth player in Iowa State history to rush for more than 1,000 yards in consecutive seasons, a feat last accomplished by his brother, Troy.
LIBERATO DI JUSTIZIONE
Rideau, who was coming off a two-interception game against Baylor, made eight tackles, seven of them unassisted, recovered a fumble and broke up two passes as the Sooners overcame a 10-0 deficit in the first half and beat Texas Tech 20-17.
Kohl's career-long 54-yard field goal provided the margin of victory in Iowa State's win against Kansas. In his final college game, the senior also booted field goals of 29 and 47 yards and made two extra points. He also put three kickoffs into the end zone.
NBA talks to resume after Thanksgiving
NEW YORK — NBA Commissioner David Stern and union director Billy Hunter held a brief scheduling meeting yesterday, and the two sides will not meet again until after Thanksgiving.
SCORPIO
The session last Friday led to the biggest progress in the nearly five-month-long lockout as owners moved off their demand for a 50-50 split of revenues, and players dropped their insistence upon 60 percent.
On Day 146 of the NBA lockout, Stern, deputy commissioner Russ Granik, Hunter and union president Patrick Ewing agreed to hold a full negotiating session on Saturday in New York — eight days after their most recent meeting.
Tyson settles dispute from traffic accident
The owners are thought to be asking for about 52 or 53 percent and the players for 57 or 58 percent.
But the two sides did not talk during the weekend, and the delay for the Thanksgiving holiday almost assures that the season will not start until after Christmas Day, when NBC is scheduled to televise its first two games of the season.
WASHINGTON — Mike Tyson and two men he is accused of assaulting have agreed to settle the dispute stemming from an August traffic accident.
The deal prevents Abmielec Saucedo and Richard Hardick from filing a lawsuit against the former heavyweight champion, Saucedo's lawyer, Glenn Culpepper, said yesterday.
"Everything is not finalized until all the Ts are crossed and the Is are dotted," Culpepper said.
Terms were not disclosed.
The men accused Tyson of punching and kicking them following a minor
traffic accident Aug. 31 involving Tyson's wife, Monica, in the Washington suburb of Gatheitsburg, Md.
Tyson still faces criminal misde-
meanor assault charges and is to
stand trial in Rockville, Md., on Dec. 1.
Tyson's lawyer Paul Kemp said he did not expect the settlement to affect the case.
"It doesn't really have any bearing on it," Kemp said. "They are two separate tracts."
Culpepper said his client had cooperated with prosecutors and was expected to testify. Tyson plans to be in Maryland for the trial, Kemp said.
Tyson is on probation for a 1.992 rape conviction in Indiana. Kemp acknowledged that a conviction in Maryland could send him back to prison.
The Nevada Athletic Commission returned Tyson's boxing license last month. It was revoked after he bit Evander Holyfield's ear during a June 1997 title bout.
COLUMBIA, S.C. — Brad Scott, who led South Carolina to its only bowl victory, was fired yesterday following the Gamecocks' worst season in 105 years of football.
South Carolina fires coach after 1-10 season
Athletic Director Mike McGee made the announcement after meeting with Scott for several hours yesterday, evaluating the team's 1-10 record.
O
"Our football program's lack of satisfactory progress and our inability to successfully compete within the Southeastern Conference led to this decision," McGee said.
Scott was hired from Florida State's national championship staff in 1993 and took the Gamecocks to their only postseason win, 24-21 against West Virginia in the 1994 Crownquest Bowl.
Scott will be paid $450,000 for the remaining three years on a contract last amended in 1996.
38-20 in the opper, South Carolina dropped its final 10 games, including Saturday's 28-19 loss at Clemson.
This year, after beating Ball State
South Carolina was 23-32-1 in Scott's five seasons. The Game-cocks' only other winning season was 1996, when they finished 6-5.

BIG 12 CONFERENCE Preseason Basketball Preview
K-State men confident in potential
By Kevin C. Wilson Associate sports editor
With so many quality teams and without a clear-cut favorite in the Big 12 this season, the
conference appears to be up for grabs. And Kansas State men's basketball coach Tom Asbury wants a piece of the action.
"This could be possibly the most open year in the league, at least in my five years," Asbury said. "This year we're pretty laden with experience in our upper classmen. Our goals are to get into the postseason every year whether it's the NIT or the NCAA Final Four."
Asbury: Hopeful about K-State's chances this season.
PETER G. BENZIGGER
The Wildcats return four starters from a team that finished the regular season with a 17-12 record and qualified for the NIT. In all, K-State welcomes back 10 letter winners and 82 percent of last season's scoring.
Highlighting this year's Wildcats team will
be preseason all-conference forward Manny Dies. The 6-9 senior led Kansas State in scoring (15.7 ppg), rebounding (7.6 rpg) and field goal percentage (54.7 percent) last season and said he was optimistic about the Wildcats' chances this year.
"I feel good going into this season about our potential," Dies said. "I think we're going to have a very solid season with our senior and recruiting classes. We just have to make sure K-State's a dominant team in the league this year. It's a good year for any team to win the conference title."
Dies will be joined in the starting lineup by senior center Shawn Rhodes who averaged 11.2 points and 5.5 rebounds per game last season. Rhodes was a member of the 1998 Big 12 All-Star team that toured Europe last August, and he said he hoped to use that experience to improve his game.
"I need to step it up this year and be more of a presence on the court," Rhodes said. "When guys are keying on Manny, our go-to guy, other guys like myself need to step up and hit shots when we need to."
Rhodes said there should be more than enough players ready to fill that need.
"We have six seniors this year, which gives us a lot of experience from top to bottom," Rhodes said. "We're the deepest we've been since I've been here. We are at least two-deep at every position."
Not any more.
A key member of the Wildcats' basketball team has been lost for the season. On Nov. 9, junior guard Duane Davis, who started 19 games and averaged 7.2 points last season, was dismissed from the team by coach Asbury for disciplinary reasons.
Senior guard Ayome May, who averaged 7.6 points and 3.5 rebounds per game last season, also left the team on Nov. 2 because of an intestinal condition, but he has since returned
Despite the depleted roster, Kansas State has opened the season at 3-0 and Asbury is hoping that his team will be ready when the conference begins. Asbury said there was a formula to follow for success in the Big 12.
"It is really important for you to win nearly all of your home games," he said. "Then you need to steal at least two or three minimum on the road, to get into the top three or four in the league to ensure yourself a bid in the NCAA tournament."
Wildcat women put stock in 6-6 center
Junior college transfer grabs coaches' eyes allows team's top scorer to try forward slot
By Sam Mellinger Kansan sportswriter
Kansas State junior Olga Firsova is making a big impression among Big 12 women's basketball coaches.
Firsova is a 6-6 junior college transfer originally from Kiev, Ukraine, and she led Weatherford (Texas) College to the NJCAA Final Four last year. She also played on the Ukrainian National Team.
"I told my girls," said Baylor coach Sonja Hogg, "we're going to have to put rockets in our shoes when we play against her."
Iowa State coach Bill Fennelly, who recruited seven newcomers 6-0 or taller, also has taken notice of Firsova.
"Isn't that the way it goes?" he said. "We get all excited because we get someone 6-2, 6-3, and K-State gets someone 6-4."
The coaches also voted Firsova the conference's preseason newcomer of the year. She is expected to fill some of the scoring void left with the departure of Brit Jacobson, one of two Wildcats to average double figure points last season.
When Firsova signed out of Weatherford, it not only gave the Wildcats a second-team NJCAA All-American with international playing experience, it gave the team the big body it needed to allow 6-1 Angie Finkes to move from center to her more natural power forward position.
coach Deb Patterson. "Last year, she was playing against centers. Now those undersized matchups begin to be even-sized matchups, or she might even have a size advantage now."
"It changes the entire game for Angie Finkes," said third-year
Playing out of her natural position last year, Finkes led K-State with 13.9 points per game and added 5.5 rebounds per game.
The transition to power forward is suiting Finkes just fine
"It's been awesome," she said. "It was tough last year being double-teamed and having defenses kind of focus on you, but there's not much you can do about that. That should change now."
And it should change into a dangerous one-two punch that would complement the three-point shooting of sophomore shooting guard Kim Woodlee and the penetration of freshman point guard Essence Perry, who Patterson said would develop
into one of the most exciting players in the Big 12.
Patterson said she hoped the inside game of Firsova and Finkes could work well with the outside threat of Perry and Woodlee. The combination has worked modestly well in the team's first two games.
In a 63-62 loss to Ohio State, Finkes scored 12 points, and Firsova managed just two in nine minutes off the bench. The big numbers came in the team's second game, a 102-68 win against Eastern Kentucky. Finkes led the way with 24 points and 11 rebounds, and Firsova added 18 and 10 in more action.
"To have Olga down there takes the pressure off," Finkes said. "People can't ignore her. Olga down there will open everything up."
K-State plays Kansas Jan. 31 in Lawrence and in the team's season finale Feb. 27 in Manhattan.

'Hawks' 4-7 season doesn't make grade
The football season came to an ugly end on Saturday.
This means that it's time to evaluate the second half of the season and distribute the final grades. As before, I'll look at the rushing and passing offense, followed by the rushing and passing defense and end with special teams.
Excluding the K-State and Nebraska games, the rushing offense has made big strides since the midterm on the legs of sophomore running back David Winbush. In the games against Iowa State, Colorado and North Texas the offensive line helped Winbush run for 497 yards on only 77 carries.
However, including the K-State and Nebraska games, the running game was even worse than in the first half of the season. Against the Wildcats and Cornhuskers, the Jayhawks managed only 102 yards combined and only 3 yards on 33 carries against K-State. Based on Winbush's improvement and his phenomenal performance against Colorado, Kansas' grade has slightly improved.
minterm grade: C. Final grade: C.
Since the midway point in the season, the 'Hawks passing game has been nonexistent. Their 103 yards per game average is not an improvement. After the Baylor game, quarterback Zac Wegner was second in the league in passing; now the team has dropped to sixth.
Although the passing numbers haven't been better, quarterback Jay Alexander has filled in capably for injured Wegner. Alexander's play has been solid and mistake free. He threw only two interceptions as a starter. Receiver Termaine Fulton's 20 yard per catch average has established him as a legitimate deep threat. Harrison Hill also was a key contributor — he finished with a team high 33 receptions. Fulton and Hill give fans a lot to be excited about for next year.
Midterm grade: B- Final grade: C. The painful-to-watch run defense – where should I begin? Midway through the season this unit was ranked dead last in yards per game allowed. To no one’s surprise, it still is. Only difference is, the defense is giving up 20 yards more a game. Sure, Nebraska’s
running game is dominating, but its 466-yard performance was ridiculous. All year long this has been a problem, and it was never fixed. Not much else to say.
Midterm grade: D. Final grade: F.
there's not much reason to pass. However, this unit has played solid all year. At the midterm, it only was giving up 149 yards a game, now the pass defense is only one yard worse. The pass defense has intercepted

the ball 11 times and only has allowed seven passing touchdowns. After injuries to starting defensive backs Muhammad Abdul-Rahim, Jamie Harris and safety Chad Coellner, there were some promising performances from younger players.
Midterm grade: A. Final grade: A.
Special teams have made improvements during the year in every phase except one: punting. Punter Matt Tyler failed to help the Jahwayks win field position battles. While averaging only 5.6 yards per punt on Saturday against Iowa State, he all but forced Coach Terry Allen to go for a first down on fourth-and-one from Kansas' 36-yard line late in the third quarter. The attempt failed. The Cyclones took the ball and kicked a field goal. That kick turned out to be the game winner.
Midterm grade; C+. Final grade; D+
Although the 4-7 record doesn't show it, this Kansas team was an improvement from last year's 5-6 squad. If the Jayhawks could have won the games in which they were leading in the fourth quarter, they would be in the top 25 and on their way to a bowl game. But that didn't happen. The phrase which has become all to familiar to me is the one I'll end with: There's always next year.

Oklahoma football coach fired following three losing seasons
By Owen Canfield The Associated Press
NORMAN, Okla. — All who know him agree that John Blake made a difference in the lives of his players. But that does not carry much weight when you lose too many football games at Oklahoma.
Blake was fired Sunday after compiling a 12-22 record, the worst three-year stretch in school history. He held a 21/2
minute news conference yesterday to thank his players, coaches and supporters.
"This program is headed in the right direction," Blake said, occasionally choking up before leaving without taking questions. "We came here for a purpose, to get the foundation established to be a winner."

Actually, Blake's
Blake: Gave farewell at a news conference yesterday.
charge when he replaced Howard Schnellenberger in December 1995 was to do more than lay a foundation. It was to restore Oklahoma as a national power, and he did not come close.
The Sooners were 3-8 in his first year and 4-8 the next — Oklahoma had never had even one eight-loss season before Blake came. The Sooners won three of their final four games this year finishing 5-6.
"We worked hard. We didn't win enough games," offensive coordinator Joe Dickinson said. "The bottom line, you've got to win games at the University of Oklahoma."
The university's regents voted to fire Blake based on the recommendation of athletic director Joe Castiglione, who has been on the job since April 30. Castiglione apparently has the full authority to hire a replacement — no search committee will be formed, as was done when Blake was hired.
Castiglione has no timetable for finding a coach, although a fairly quick decision would help offset potential recruiting losses.
Among the names mentioned as possibilities are Jim Donnan of Georgia, Tommy Bowden of Tulane, Oregon's Mike Bellotti and Florida defensive coordinator Bob Stoops.
Merv Johnson, director of football operations, will oversee the program until a new coach is hired. His priorities will be to reassure as many players as possible and to stay in contact with recruits.
Oklahoma has won six national championships but has not been in the hunt for even a conference title since the late 1980s. Castiglione said Oklahoma's program is one that should seek to be mentioned with national powers, as it once was.
"To aspire to that kind of level of success, to be competing consistently with those kind of people, with those institutions, we have to do things differently," he said.
Blake has two years remaining on his contract at an annual salary of $126,200, plus insurance and retirement benefits. The university is obliged to pay for those two years, which Castiglione acknowledged will crimp a department that is trying to get out from operating in the red.
Blake often talked about doing things

the right way, about instilling integrity and character in the program. He alluded to that during his farewell yesterday.
"Most of all, I thank all those who stuck by me, all the great friends, all the great supporters, those who knew what I stood for, and I would never change that," he said.
Blake's dismissal did not surprise his Big 12 colleagues.
"He had the players behind him, and that's the biggest factor of all," Missouri coach Larry Smith said. "But there are some programs who have little patience and don't understand they're in the '90s and not the '60s and '70s. College football has changed. You're not always going to return to the glory days instantaneously. That's what the administrations sometimes want."
Oklahoma State coach Bob Simmons deplored the way the vote was played out on television — with the regents announcing each vote. The decision had actually been made earlier in closed session, however, and Blake knew his fate before the television audience learned it.
"I've never seen it done this way, as far as being on TV and taking a vote," Simmons said. "I walked away from it. I don't know what options they gave them."
Firing doesn't shock other Big 12 coaches
By Doug Tucker
The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- John Blake's dismissal as Oklahoma's head coach saddened but did not surprise his Biz 12 colleagues.
They know one day it could happen to them.
"I've been through it. It's not fun," said Missouri coach Larry Smith, who was fired from Southern Cal.
Blake was 12-22 in his first three seasons, but won three of his last four games, including a 20-17 victory in the regular-season finale against Texas Tech.
"I think he was just now starting to see some daylight," Smith said during yesterday's Big 12 teleconference.
Oklahoma State coach Bob Simmons said he deplored the way the vote was played on television.
"People handle it different ways. All I can tell you is it's very, very difficult to be put in that situation." Simmons said.
Whoever replaces Blake, said Simmons, "is going to have to work at it."
"That's true any place you look at it," he added. "Things have changed across this country with scholarship numbers, people you can can't take ... Just to say a program can come back immediately, maybe 20 or 30 years ago, yeah, when you had unlimited numbers (of scholarships). But things have changed. They can still recruit talent. But that doesn't mean it's going to happen instantaneously overnight."
"You're always sad for the coach because you know how much effort coaches put into their jobs," said Texas A&M coach R.C. Slocum. "But all of us when we go into this business realized that the bottom
line was ... you can end up losing your job. I know a lot of real good coaches who ended up being dismissed from their jobs. I hate to see a man lose his job."
Texas Tech's Spike Dykes, who was beaten by Blake on Saturday, said the firing reminded him of
what an interesting business coaching was.
"There's no standards," Dykes said. "Every situation is different."
Q
think most coaches have grown to live with that, and so that's just part of the process you accept in this business and go on down the road."
Apparently, Blake is going to be the only Big 12 coach fired this year. But Frank Solich may not have the greatest job tenure himself at Nebraska. As the replacement after 25 years of Tom Osborne, Solich is in charge of the first Nebraska team in several years that's going into the bowl season without a chance at the national championship.
With one regular season game left, Friday against Colorado, this already is the first Nebraska team since 1977 with three regular-season losses.
How long would Nebraska tolerate three or four losses a year?
"I don't know, and I'm not going to project anything that nature," Solch said. "The only thing that I'll do is continue to coach the best I can, and so will the staff. Our players always play hard. Our fans have been tremendously supportive. I expect that will continue through the course of this season, without question. But I don't project down the road."
Roberto Alomar to join brother on Indians' lineup
By Tom Withers The Associated Press
CLEVELAND — Make it two All-Star Alomars on the Cleveland Indians.
Roberto Alomar joined his brother Sandy on the American League Central champions, agreeing yesterday to a four-year contract worth $30 million to $32 million.
While the deal immediately was not announced, several sources familiar with the negotiations, all speaking on the condition of anonymity, said it had been completed. The Indians plan a news conference tomorrow at Jacobs Field to announce the contract with the nine-time All-Star.
Alomar's addition finally gives the Indians stability at second base, where they have used 15 players since trading Carlos Baerga in 1996. Roberto, who was in Cleveland yesterday for a physical, was the Most Valuable Player of this year's All-Star game while Sandy, a six-time All-Star, was the MVP of the '97 game at Jacobs Field.
Roberto, 30, has been in the sights of Indians General Manager John Hart for several years. With his addition, Cleveland has a lineup with a current or former All-Star at every position and one only rivaled by the World Series champion New York Yankees.
Second base has been Cleveland's most glaring weakness since Baerga was dealt to the New York Mets. The Indians used six different players at second during the '98 season alone and went into the postseason with Joey Cora there after acquiring him in a late-season trade with Seattle.
Cora hit just .059 in the playoffs and he became a free agent after Cleveland declined to exercise his 1999 option.
Roberto's addition gives the Indians the
strongest and flashtest middle infield in baseball. A six-time Gold Glove winner, Alomar will be paired up the middle with shortstop Omar Vizquel, who won his sixth straight Gold Glove this season and has the highest fielding percentage of any shortstop ever.
"It would be worth the price of a ticket just to watch Omar and Robbie turn a double play," Hart said last week.
Alomar, who has played with San Diego, Toronto and Baltimore, spent three somewhat tumultuous seasons with the Orioles. He came under fire in 1996 when he spit at ampire John Hirschbeck during an argument, and last year he and some other Orioles were critical of Manager Ray Miller and Baltimore's front office.
Alomar and Indians fans have some history of their own. After his run-in with Hirschbock during the last series of the '97 regular season, umpires threatened to strike the postseason if Alomar wasn't immediately suspended.
He was given a five-day suspension to be served the next season, and only a court order kept the umpires from walking. Alomar, however, became a series hero for Baltimore by singling in the tying run in the ninth inning of Game 4 and hitting a home run in the 12th inning as the Orioles eliminated the Indians.
When the teams met in the 1997 AL championship series, Alomar made the final out of Baltimore's season, striking out against Jose Mesa as the Indians defeated the Orioles in six games.
Roberto and Sandy Alomar have played together on five American League All-Star teams. The Alomars could soon be joined on the Indians team by their father, Sandy Sr., a 15-year major leaguer. He is being considered for one of two coaching positions.
Iowa coach retires after 37-year career
Achievements include 17 bowl appearances
The Associated Press
IOWA CITY, Iowa — Hayden Fry, who turned a woeful Iowa football program into a three-time Rose Bowl participant, bid a tearful farewell yesterday after 20 seasons as the Hawkeyes' coach.
Fry said as difficult as the decision was, the timing was right for him to retire. He ended a 37-year coaching career that encompassed 420 games at three universities and produced 232 victories and 17 bowl appearances.
"It's kind of hard to do," said Fry, 69. "All the people that gave me an opportunity to spend 20 years as a member of the Hawkeye family, I could never repay them."
Fry was the winningest coach in Iowa history, but his teams had trouble staying with the Big 10 powers in the '90s after winning three conference championships from '81 to '90.
This season's 3-8 finish was the worst in his 20 years at Iowa. But Fry said it gave him the opportunity to step down because the season would not extend through a December bowl trip.
"Selfishly, it's not the right time for me," Fry said. "I'd rather have gone out with a real good season and all that good stuff coaches like to talk about. But I truly love the University of Iowa. I truly love the state of Iowa. I'll always be a Hawk."
It also will give Athletic Director Bob Bowlsby time to find a new coach without harming recruiting.
effect it would have had on recruiting. A bowl game at the end of the 97 season discourage
Fry said he had considered quitting two years ago but stayed out of concern for the future of his assistants and the
him from quitting for similar reasons.
This year, injuries, inexperience and a tepid offense put the Hawkeyes out of bowl contention early.
"I really felt like we could have a good year," said Fry, his voice faltering at times as he wiped tears away with a handkerchief. "I've always been an optimist, but I never dreamed that we would experience all the problems we had. But I'm very proud of this team this year, even in defeat."
Fry, who inherited a program that had gone 17 years without a winning season when he came to Iowa City in '79, took the Hawkeyes to 14 bowl games and built a 143-89-6 record.
After going 5-6 and 4-7 in his first two seasons, Fry in '81 took the Hawkeyes to their first appearance in the Rose Bowl since the '58 season. The Hawkeyes lost to Washington 28-0, but just getting to Pasadena had been a major accomplishment.
Iowa also made Rose Bowl trips with Fry after the '85 and '90 seasons, both losses. Iowa was ranked No.1 nationally for five weeks in 1985, the only time during his tenure that his team held that position.
"There's no way we can calculate what he gave to the University of Iowa," said Ann Rhodes, vice president for university relations. "He came at a difficult time in the state's history and gave us something to be proud of."
An ex-Marine, Fry played quarterback at Baylor following a standout high-school career in Odessa, Texas, and began his college coaching career as an assistant at his alma mater in 1960.
Two years later, he became head coach at Southern Methodist, where his teams made three bowl trips in 11 years.
He then spent six years as head coach at North Texas State, compiling a 40-23-3 record before taking the Iowa job in December 1978.
Fry's Texas drawl and homespun humor made him an immediate hit with players and fans as he promised to bring excitement and a wide open offensive style to the program.
"This is a place many of you will recall nobody ever thought a football coach would win again," Bowlby said. "Not only did he win, but he did things that even the fondest supporters of this university couldn't have anticipated."
Fry said he made the decision to leave on Sunday. But the "retirement" word was hard to come by, and he spent several minutes at his news conference thanking people, at times pausing to compose himself, before he made the announcement.
"Man, 47 years — I've never had to do this," he said.
Among the top replacement candidates could be Florida defensive coordinator Bobby Stoops, a defensive back at Iowa under Fry.
Iowa offensive coordinator Don Patterson, who has been with Fry since 1978, said he would seek the job.

Life won't bug kids or adults
By Jeremy M. Doherty Kansan movie critic
A Bug's Life manages that rarest of combinations — a kids' flick that also will entertain adults.
Children will delight in the movie's elaborate colors, cute insects and digestible story. and adults will
marvel at the texture of the computer
graphics and the wealth of celebrities providing voice talents.
Set in an ants' world where blades of grass tower above like skyscrapers and a low-flying songbird means death, A Bug's Life is a variation on the tried-and-true underdog tale.
Flik (Dave Foley) is a brainy worker ant who has a knack for inventions and for fraying the nerves of the colony elders. He also likes to bat his eyes at Princess Atta (Julia Louis-Dreyfus), who's being groomed to be queen.
The ants spend each summer harvesting seeds to appease a marauding crew of grasshoppers, led by Hopper (Kevin Spacey), a suave carver who believes that the ants' purpose is to serve him.
But Fikl's bumbling around at the seed stockpile leads to an

Hopper is not pleased. Although the rainy season soon will arrive, Hopper threatens the ants with force unless they gather another supply of food.
Flik, eager to redeem himself in the eyes of the colony, sets out to recruit an army of mercenary bugs to battle Hopper's forces. What he finds instead is an unemployed band of circus performers, including a macho ladybug (Denis Leary), a black widow (Bonnie Hunt) with a nurturing side, and a walking stick (David Hyde Pierce) who
dreams of being a master thesplan.
Director John Lasseter, an Oscar-winner for 1995's *Toy Story*, A Bug's Life creates a critters' world that maintains a distinctly human touch. Filk ventures into an insect city where mosquitoes drink Bloody Marys at bars, and homeless bugs hold signs that read "My kid pulled my wings off."
The biggest laughs come at the end as a reel of outtakes accompanies the closing credits and shows the insect "actors" flubbing their lines and cutting up.
A Bug's Life isn't going to cure society's ills, and it's too slight to be considered for year-end awards. What the movie does do is provide 95 minutes of wholesome, family-oriented entertainment. For once, adults won't be checking their watches as the movie unfolds.
Disney feels heat from cartoon rivals
By Michael Floeman The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — How do you market Moses?
"But I've still got to sell the movie," says DreamWorks marketing director Terry Press. "I've still got to get people in."
For the animated biblical epic The Prince of Egypt, DreamWorks has shunned the usual movie merchandising tie-ins. That means no Holy Happy Meals and no action figures leading the Israelites to the Promised Land.
Thus was born The Prince of Egypt gift pack containing a CD of songs "inspired" by the movie, a storybook and tickets to the film.
DreamWorks is marketing movies differently because it's making them differently.
THE AFTERBURN
Toon Town is a boom town these days, with more movies and more selection.
Disney still dominates the industry. And the appealing and technically innovative A Bug's Life proves the Mouse House still has a feel for family-friendly fare.
But despite a decade or so of attempts by others to carve a niche in the animation market, rival studios believe it remains under-exploited. They say the appetite for films that break the Disney mold is obvious, given the success of the more sophisticated Antz, a DreamWorks film that has grossed $81.1 million.
"The shackles have come off of animation ... in the perception of the audience and the studios, as a one-genre medium," said 20th Century Fox animation president Chris Meledandri.
DreamWorks partner Jeffrey Katzenberg has emphasized that animation is a style of movie-

making, not a limitation upon it.
For the Antz follow-up, Dream-Works offers another PG-rated film in The Prince of Egypt, with a subject matter so sensitive the traditional animation marketing practices had to be scrapped in favor of the gift pack promotion.
At 20th Century Fox, animators also are eyeing the older audience after plaving it safe.
Its in-house animation operation debuted with *Anastasia*, a musical that grossed a respectable $6.5 million last year and has done well on video.
Paramount is going for a little bit of every audience as parent company Viacom taps its Nickelodeon and MTV networks for feature film material.
At Warner Bros., the studio insists it's committed to animated features, with its The King and I, out next year followed by the science fiction-based Iron Giant.
Then there's Disney, which is obviously not going away.
"We are at any cost committed to animation." Eisner said. "It is the soul and heart of our company."
Very Bad Things can't get any worse Post-production fight about Norton movie strikes controversy
Movie with drugs, gambling uses pointless stereotypes
Kansan movie critic
By Jeremy M. Doherty
Konson movie critic
There isn't anything very good about Very Bad Things.
Believe its title. This movie is very bad. Very, very bad.
Imagine a bloodier-than-usual Quentin Tarantino ticks that's missing the interesting characters or the sense of humor, and you might be close to what this drivel offers.
Written and directed by actor Peter Berg (Chicago Hope), who probably should steer clear of showbiz altogether, Very Bad Things feels like something dredged from the
imagination of a mental patient. It starts out as a mildly acerbic romantic comedy, but it gradually emerges as a film that adheres to pointless racial and gender stereotypes.
VERY BAD THINGS
The setup is simple:
Five yuppies (Christian Slater, Daniel Stern,
Jon Favraue, Jeremy
minutes
Rated: R for violence and for wasting several thousand feet of film
Piven and Leland Orser) head to Vegas for a weekend of booze, cocaine and prostitutes. Favreau is about to get hitched to his high-strung girlfriend (Cameron Diaz), who worries that her beau and his buddies will engage in too much sinful merrymaking.
And do they. In the course of a few hours, they gamble a load of cash, trash their hotel room and kill a prostitute. When a hotel official arrives to complain about the level of noise radiating from their room, Slater's character decides that, gosh darn it, he'll have to kill him as well.
Then we get an extended, unfunny sequence in which our five protagonists head to the local hardware store and load up on saws and shovels. Why? The better to dispose of the bodies with, silly. This is one of those movies where a guy slips and falls into a pool of blood, and we're supposed to find it funny.
For some reason, Berg chose to make the prostitute an Asian-American, and the hotel official that Slater kills is an African-American. They're the only minority characters in Very Bad Things. We have here essentially is a story about five white guys who kill a woman and a black man who gets in their way. If that was supposed to be funny, then the joke was lost on me.
Slater, eyebrows wiggling and hairline receding, more or less plays an older version of his psychopath from Heathers. Diaz's shrill performance hints that her comic touch in There's Something About Mary was a fluke. All the other performers look embarrassed to be trapped in Berg's nightmare world.
As they should be.

By Mark Kennedy The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Edward Norton braces for The Question.
The actor knows it's only a matter of time before it pops up—yet again — in a discussion of his new film. And when it does, his iaw hardens ever so slightly.
Who really made American History X?
The question is unavoidable when dealing with a film that generated one of the ugliest postproduction struggles in recent years, as the star dued the director for final control.
The apparent loser, first-time director Tony Kaye, is so embittered by the experience that he vows never again to speak to New Line Cinema or Norton.
"I provided him an ambiance and a stage and the freedom for him to do his best work," says Kaye. "And he repaid me by stabbing me in the back a million times."
Norton pauses before responding
"The best thing about making a film is that they're collaborative," he said. "And the worst thing about making them is that they're collaborative."
In other words, welcome to the jungle—Hollywood-style.
It began with a gritty, profane script: A reformed white Nazi skinhead, freed from prison after murdering two black teen-agers, tries to prevent his younger brother from following in his destructive goose-steps.
Thanks to a steady, protein-rich diet, he gained 30 pounds of muscle, shaved his head, hung out with skinheads and stuck an enormous black swastika over his heart.
"The big challenge of this for me was to introduce a character who is nightmarishly awful, Norton said. "By the end, though, I wanted the audience not to be able to use the word evil because he's too completely humanized in a sad way. I wanted people to feel pain
— emotional impact, maybe even empathy — over the fact that this character has fallen so hard."
So far, so good. The film showcases Norton at his sociopathic best, a performance that recalls his riveting debut as the angelic teen-ager on trial for murder in 1996's Primal Fear.
After that, Norton did a U-turn, playing—and singing—a goofy role in Woody Allen's Everyone Says I Love You, tackling the roles of an unimposing lawyer in The People vs. Larry Flynt and a hard-core cameraman in this fall's Rounders.
The trouble began with American History X after Kaye, 46, delivered his cut of the film to New Line Cinema. Even though it reportedly scored well with screenings audiences, Kaye was unsatisfied.
He asked for — and was granted — time to make a second, shorter cut. When it arrived, the studio thought it lacked the necessary emotional punch and permitted Norton — at age 29 and lacking any directorial training — to get his own crack at it in the editing bay.
Kaye was incensed. He publicly renounced the re-edited version in a campaign that included fullpage ads in Daily Variety and the Hollywood Reporter.
The Kansan is hiring!
Relenting, New Line permitted Kaye a number of weeks to come up with an acceptable version. When the deadline elapsed, however, Kaye showed up empty-handed.
New Line, tired of waiting and having already missed several delivery dates, decided to release the so-called "Norton cut." Kaye demanded that his name be removed from the final product. The studio declined.
Kaye says the crippled version of his film is a huge embarrassment. He holds Norton mainly responsible.
Norton, who insists his version of the film changed Kaye's original vision by no more than 5 percent, says he's more shocked that the studio indulged the director.

White House seeks other options
Impeachment vote may be determined by GOP defectors
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The White House said it would respond this week to House Judiciary Committee questions about the Monica Lewinsky affair. Aides to President Clinton also said they were open to proposals, short of impeachment, that would punish the president.
Incoming House Speaker Bob Livingston, R-La., reiterated his hope that the scandal, which polls indicated worked against Republicans in the Nov. 3 election, could be put to rest by the end of the year.
Without predicting the outcome, Livingston said that if the full House is required to vote on articles of impeachment, the issue could be disposed of quickly.
Because the issues have been on the table for the past year, debate
could be limited to two or three hours. Livingston said Sunday on NBC's Meet the Press. The House then could vote on the issue and be done with it, he said.
"If we did not have the votes to sustain the charge, that would be it." Livingston said.
Republican lawmakers have acknowledged that 15 to 20 from their own ranks would vote a g a i n s t impeachment if

Clinton: Looking for middle ground to conclude inquiry.
impeachment the Judiciary Committee sends the issue to the full House. That would be enough to defeat the measure if Democrats stand united against impeachment.
House approval of impeachment would send the matter to the Senate.
But it is thought there is almost no chance that the chamber would come up with the two-thirds vote needed to remove Clinton from office.
"The impeachment process has failed," Rep. Barney Frank, D-Mass., a member of the Judiciary Committee, said on CNN's Late Edition. "No one is really expecting that there will be a vote in favor."
"Right now, with the political landscape, I would say no," Rep. Lindsey Graham, R.S.C., another committee member, said on ABC's This Week when asked whether impeachment would ever reach the Senate.
White House special presidential counsel Greg Craig, appearing on NBC and CNN, said officials were ready to explore a middle ground of a resolution to censure Clinton for his affair with Ms. Lewinsky and his efforts to cover it up. The president was open to a reasonable proposal that would bring the issue to a rapid conclusion, he said.
Both Craig and White House
Clinton Investigation
adviser Paul Begala stressed there were now no negotiations with Congress about censure, although Craig said he had spoken with some individuals to find out their views.
Begala, on CBS, said Clinton would review responses yesterday to 81 questions submitted by the Judiciary Committee about the Lewinsky affair. He said the responses would be sent to Congress during the week.
"We're going to file a timely and complete response," Craig said. "We intend to hit all the questions."
The committee must study those answers and schedule hearings for additional witnesses before deciding when it will vote on referring articles of impeachment to the full House.
Mergers, renewed confidence spur Dow surge
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — The Dow surged to a new high yesterday, capping a nearly 2,000-point rebound from the summer's scary slide, as merger fever returned to the stock market.
Extending a nearly nonstop rally that began less than two months ago, the Dow Jones industrial average rose 214.72 points to 9,374.27, toping the July 17 record of 9,337.97.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index also set its first record since July. But most broad-market indexes remained shy of new highs as smaller-companies' stocks continued to lag behind the blue chips that dominate the Dow and S&P 500.
The rally came as a series of billion-dollar takeovers and negotiations for two blockbuster deals signaled a return to the merger frenzy that energized the market in the spring and early summer.
Financial shares rose as Germany's Deutsche Bank said it was discussing the final details of a $9 billion deal to take over Bankers Trust, and Internet shares led the technology group higher
as America Online said it may buy Netscape Communications in a $4 billion deal.
While the sudden spurt of merger activity helped spark yesterday's rally, analysts said it was the renewed confidence in the stock market that had hatched yesterday's dealings.
"It spells real faith in the long-term strength of the marketplace," said Arthur Hogan, chief market analyst at Jeffries & Co., noting that most of yesterday's deals would be paid for with stock rather than cash.
"If you're taking over for stock, it means you believe your stock is as good as currency, that the value of your stock is going to be at or near that price for some time," said Hogan. "That goes with the belief that the economy and the stock market will be healthy and strong for some time. You don't see these types of deals announced in questionable times. You wouldn't have seen it in October."
The return to record terrain follows a volatile four-month journey that took the Dow as low as 7,400 on Sept. 1 and to 7,467 on Oct. 8, the day the market's recovery began.
But the rebound has been so continuous and so rapid — the Dow has not fallen as much as 100 points since Oct. 1 — that many analysts are growing fearful of another sharp selloff.
"We've got a mania for stocks right now, and you can't really make a rational explanation for what we have witnessed over the last six weeks," said Richard A. Dickson, a technical analyst at Scott & Stringfellow in Richmond, Va., noting that economic and financial instability overseas still posed a big risk.
"What has improved fundamentally enough to justify what is close to a 30 percent gain from the market's lows?" Dickson asked. For now, however, there is no sign that the rally is through. "Manias never end well ... I am dubious but not stupid. I'm not going to step in front of this."
Before the rebound began, it had seemed that the spread of financial turmoil around the world would send Wall Street to its first losing year since 1990. Now, several major indexes are poised to extend an unprecedented streak of three straight years with gains of 20 percent or more.
AOL negotiates $4 billion purchase for Netscape rights
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — America Online Inc. said yesterday it was negotiating to buy Netscape Communications Corp. in a deal that would bring together the world's largest computer Internet provider and the pioneer company whose software first popularized the Web.
But the deal, which was negotiated all weekend, is not complete. A person close to the negotiations told The Associated Press it was unlikely the deal, estimated at $4 billion, would be finalized yesterday.
AOL cautioned in a statement that "there can be no assurance that an agreement will be reached or a transaction consummated."
AMERICA

summated."
day. Netscape opened at $44 but dipped to $42. AOL opened at $89.75 but was down to $87.25. Sun Microsystems Inc., the third company involved in the negotiations opened at $69.50 and climbed to $71.63.
Under one scenario, according to the source, AOL would run Netscape's "Netcenter" Web site, which receives roughly 20 million visitors monthly and distribute Netscape's popular browser, the software that lets people view information on the Internet.
Sun would benefit in two ways:
It would take control of
Netscape's business-level "server" software, and it would enjoy widespread distribution among AOL's 14 million subscribers of its Java technology for running Internet programs.
AOL said its talks with Sun involved "a possible development and marketing agreement for e-commerce
N
and new Internet devices, which would involve Netscape products."
The three companies have been negotiating for at least two weeks. If the deal is completed, it would create an alliance that would change the landscape of the nation's technology industry.
It also could spell trouble several ways for Microsoft Corp., the industry giant whose Internet software competes directly with Netscape's.
Microsoft—with its own, far less-successful online service and its own business-level software also competes against AOL and Sun Microsystems, which makes powerful workstation computers used by graphic artists and engineers.
AOL, for example, now distributes Internet software by Microsoft to its subscribers. But a shift in allegiance to Netscape could dramatically restore Netscape's share of the browser market to its highest levels since Microsoft launched raids so aggressive that the federal government is suing it for alleged antitrust violations.
Georgia repeals anti-sodomy legislation
Appeal overturns 12-year-old ruling
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Georgia Supreme Court threw out the state's anti-sodomy law yesterday, 12 years after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the statute with a landmark ruling that said there was no right to privacy in sexual contact.
The Georgia court voted 6-1 to overturn the conviction of Anthony Powell, who was found guilty of sodomizing his 17-year-old niece in 1996 but acquitted of raping her.
Yesterday's majority opinion, by Chief Justice Robert Benham, said the state law "manifestly infringes upon a constitutional provision ... which guarantees to the citizens of Georgia the right of
privacy."
The U.S. Supreme Court had taken the opposite view, holding in 1986 that consenting adults had no constitutional right to private homosexual conduct.
Former state Attorney General Michael Bowers, who defended the law before the U.S. Supreme Court in the 1986 case, said he was surprised by yesterday's action.
"I'd like to see their reasoning," he said. "It's obviously the law now, but I can't imagine how they can make such a ruling. I would be very surprised if you don't see a legislative move to alter that."
The state cannot appeal yesterday's ruling because the Georgia Supreme Court is the ultimate authority on the state's constitution. Legislators would have to amend the constitution before being able to pass a similar law.
Twelve other states have sodomy laws that make consensual oral and anal sex between
heterosexual or homosexual couples a crime, while six other states have anti-sodomy laws that apply only to homosexuals.
Justice George H. Carley was the lone dissenter in today's ruling, writing that the majority on the court "usurped the legislative authority of the General Assembly to establish the public policy of this state."
But the majority ruled that the state had numerous other statutes prohibiting sexual assault, child molestation and public sex.
"I think that Georgia is preparing itself to move into the 21st century as a just state," said Lynn Cothren, an Atlanta gavin activist.
"He said he was happy and relieved and glad for the chance to get on with his life." Brenda Joy Berstein, one of Powell's attorneys, said yesterday morning.
Powell spent 14 months in jail before making bail last year pending his appeal.
Arctic cold wave blamed for 65 deaths across Eurone
BUCHAREST, Romania — An early season Arctic cold wave and accompanying blizzards were reported yesterday to have killed at least 65 people across Europe.
Fountains in front of the Eiffel Tower were completely frozen, and about 100 homeless people staged a sit-in at the headquarters of the state-run medical assistance service in Paris to demand better protection in winter.
Authorities reported the death of a 91-year-old Italian man who was found in his unheated home in Calabria, southern Italy. The cold also was blamed for the deaths of a husband and wife killed by carbon monoxide poisoning — apparently from a defective heater — at their home in rural Lombardy, Italy.
Weather played a role in at least 24 deaths in Romania and Bulgaria during the past three days. In Poland, 36 people died, most of them homeless or those who passed out in the cold after drinking alcohol,
The cold wave hit on Nov. 16, making it one of the coldest Novembers in Poland in recent years. Weather forecasters predict higher temperatures in the next few days, but it was uncertain whether they would climb above zero.
The lowest reported temperature was 15 degrees below zero early Sunday in Ostroleka, in northeast Poland.
In Romania, at least 21 people have died from the cold and in weather-related accidents on snow-covered roads since Friday. Temperatures plunged to 14 degrees below zero early yesterday.
Some 15 major roads were blocked by snowdrifts as high as five feet.
About 200 people spent more than 48 hours stranded in their cars after winds whipped snowdrifts across main highways in southern Romania. Army vehicles rescued most drivers, but six people froze to death during the weekend after being trapped in their cars.

Colorado runner acquires men's championship win
Brad Mallior Kansan sportswriter
Colorado's Adam Goucher wanted to finish his college running career in style.
And here is.
Goucher ran away from the pack at the NCAA Men's Cross Country Championships yesterday at Rim Rock Farm, finishing with a course-record time of 29.26.9, exactly 26 seconds ahead of runner-up Abdilahman of Arizona.
"At the five-mile mark, I let it all out," Goucher said. "It feels wonderful. I wanted to go out with a bang and see what I could do, and that's what I did."
Goucher became the second American-born runner in the last decade to win the championship.
His victory capped a successful career that included a fourth-place finish at nationals last year, sixth-place finish as a sophomore and a second-place finish as a freshman.
Abdirahman and Butler University's Julius Mwangi were expected to challenge Goucher for the individual title. Abdirahman and Mwangi finished second and third respectively.
"I am happy I finished second." Abdirahman said. "I ran my best race, but I wasn't feeling well this morning. I started feeling better at the end of the race. I couldn't be happier."
He added that he was happy for Goucher as well.
"He has been working toward this for five years," he said, "I wish him the best of luck."
Goucher said that he, Mwangi and Abdirahman broke away from the pack around Suicide Turn during the fourth mile.
"I let Abdi surge when he wanted, and I hoped to benefit from that later in the race," Goucher said. "There was basically a series of surges between he and I while we were trying to feel each other out. I just tried to pull away when I could."
Mwangi was graceful with his third-place finish, but he had to battle Wisconsin's Matthew Downin. Mwangi edged Downin by one-tenth of a second.
"I believe that if you don't accept defeat you are not a winner," Mwangi said. "I feel I did my best. I felt strong, but I twisted my leg a little around four miles. But I did regain my energy at the end."
The men's team competition was not quite as close as the women's team competition.
The top-ranked Arkansas Razorbacks won their ninth team title, and its first since 1995. Its 97 points were 17 better than runner-up Stanford's 114 points.
No Razorback finished worse than 40th, but Arkansas coach John McDonnell said the wait for the official team results was nerve-racking.
"Last year we waited a long time, and we lost by three points," he said. "This was sweet because we beat a good field, a very good Stanford team and a very good Colorado team."
Villanova edges Stanford Brigham Young for win
Bv Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
Before the NCAA Women's Cross-Country Championships, Brigham Young University and Stanford University were considered the heavy favorites.
And why not?
During the 1997 championships, BYU won the team title with 100 points. The team's top three runners from last year's championships, who finished in the Top 32, returned this year.
Stanford finished a close second last year with 102 points. Noother team finished within 75 points.
The Cougars edged the Cardinals again this year by only one point. But in the end, it was Villanova holding the championship trophy, edging the defending champions 106-110, with Stanford finishing third at 111 points.
"I thought there was no way we had won because I thought I saw five BYU runners in before us," said Villanova assistant coach Gina Procaccio. "We were talking about going home when I was approached saying that we had a chance. I asked our men's coach if he had heard anything, and just then I heard on the walkie-talkie that Villanova had won."
Villanova's team did not even qualify for the 1997 championships, but it did have the individual champion. Carrie Tollefson.
Tolleffon returned to lead a balanced Villanova
finish. Even though the highest Wildcat finished
10th, four Villanova runners placed in the top 18. BYU coach Patrick Shane said his team made a worthless effort with his team's second place finish
"Somebody has to finish second, and somebody has to finish third and so on," he said. "If we only raced for first, it would be a sad thing. I congratulate Villanova and Stanford for a great race. Coming in, we knew that there were four or five teams that could win it all."
Michigan's Katie McGregor held off Arizona's Amy Skiresz winning the 5,000 meter individual title. McGregor's time was 16:47.21, more than six seconds ahead of Skiresz's time of 16:53.52.
"Amy's a great runner," McGregor said. "The win means a lot today, but it's basically about who has a good day and who doesn't. There are about 10-15 runners out there who wanted it, and I guess I had a better day than them."
"I was pretty dead at the end of the race, and I didn't have a lot left. Skiersz said. "I was kind of like flashbacks from last year, but I did what I could do. Katie had a better race than me."
This marked the second year that Skieresz finished a close second. She finished 10 seconds behind Tollefson last year.
Michigan coach Mike Maguire said he and McGreeor had a couple of plans for her race.
Onlookers debate weather, course
"She's adaptable, and once Katie got in the middle of the race, we knew she had a shot as long as she kept a reasonable distance." Maguire said. "She knows how to find the finish line."

Special to the Kansan
People from across the nation converged on the Rim Rock Farm cross country course yesterday to watch the NCAA Division I and II Cross Country Championships.
The crowd converged on the course north of Lawrence from all directions, backing up traffic for a couple of miles as race time approached.
Reaction to the sunny day, the course and the meet largely was positive from a crowd with varying backgrounds and a common interest in cross country running.
Joe Newton, a cross country coach at York (III.) High School for 43 years and a guest of former Kansas track coach Bob Timmon, said he was impressed with the course's design.
"It's a wonderful course, the best in the history of the United States," he said. "I've never seen a crowd like this at one of these meets. It's a happening. It's good for Kansas. It's good for KU. It's good for everyone."
Colorado native Lynn Reese was not quite as enthusiastic. Reese said he was there to cheer on his son, Tommy Reese, who ran for Colorado and was shooting for his second consecutive berth on the All-America team.
"Last year, when we went to the Division I meet back in North Carolina, there were just as many people, but the parking facilities were a lot better," Lynn Reese said. "This was real, real hard to get in. If there had been any snow or rain, this deal would have been a disaster."
Parking problems aside, Reese said he enjoyed the meet.
Chuck Branson, Sedalia Mo., came to support his great-great nephew, Nicholas Cyder, a runner for Tennessee-Chattanooga.
Branson said he enjoyed the meet but was overwhelmed by the attendance.
"This is my first meet," he said. "It's great. It looks like it's pretty well planned. It has to be to take care of this many people. I was lucky to even find my family. They just happened to be sitting down on the ground. I was looking for Nicholas' dad."
Margaret Adams, Indianapolis, Ind., resident, drove 12 hours Sunday night to watch her granddaughter, Courtney Adams, compete for Stanford.
"I think this is a beautiful place," said
Adams. "I've been to a lot of these meets, and this is just perfect."
While most people seemed to enjoy the unseasonably warm temperature and blue sky, Ken Beringer, a supporter from the University of South Dakota, said he did not welcome the pleasant weather conditions.
"The nice weather hurts this university," Beringer said. "We're used to cold weather and wind. The more adversity, the better we run."

Adams State corners Division II cross country championships
---
For the Adams State men, nobody placed lower than 18th, and they finished with 68 team points. Western State of Colorado, which is in the same conference and region as Adams State, finished second with 74 points. South Dakota finished a close-third with 81 points.
Adams State of Colorado swept the team competition at the NCAA Division-II Cross Country Championships at Rim Rock Farm yesterday.
Freshman Yi Min Wu of Edinboro, Pa. was crowned the Division II champ with a time of 31:06.6.
Rittsburg State was the only Kansas school to field an entire men's team, and it finished 15th with 324 points.
The Adams State women smoked the field by more than 20 points. They had the first and third-place finishers, and they finished with 56 points.
Kimberly Bugg overcame South Dakota's Molly Wedel's 60-meter deficit with less than a mile to run to win the individual title with a time of 21:43.0.

Watson Library's power restored
By Chad Bettes
Kansan staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
After four weeks, three closings and about $25,000 in expenses, the University of Kansas may have lost its gamble to save money on the Watson Library electrical repairs.
Bob Porter, associate director of facilities operations, said the University had rolled the dice by ordering a used, refurbished transformer rather than a new one to fix the electrical problems at Watson.
Julia Roles, assistant dean for information services, said the installation of a refurbished electrical transformer at Watson during Thanksgiving break allowed the library to stop using gas generated power and open Friday. The library closed at 8 p.m. Tuesday for the installation.
There will be a public Christmas tree lighting on the lawn of the Outlook, the Chancellor's 1532 Lilac Lane home, at 5 p.m. on Dec. 7. The lightning ceremony will include traditional and Haitian carols performed by Melle Melomane, a group of Haitian students studying at the University.
"Christmas trees haven't been banned on campus," Burg said. "But we have asked departments not to use state funds for the purchase of decorations and to be mindful of all traditions."
But Porter said the fix was temporary because Lyons Electric supplied a transformer that was functioning but that did not meet the contracted specifications.
Lyons Electric was not able to be reached because of the holiday weekend.
The transformer only has the capacity to provide three-fourths of the power the
See POWER on page 2A
However, Burg said that Christmas trees were not banned on campus.
Strong Hall gets seasonal decorations
Kansan staff writer
By Melody Arc
Seven banners will hang in the Strong Hall rotunda during December to recognize holiday traditions observed by University of Kansas students.
This is the first year the University will try for a comprehensive recognition of holiday traditions.
"The University's position is that this is a very important holiday for the Christian religion, and there are also a lot more traditions represented in the diverse mix of people and cultures that make up a modern university," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said. "We should go out of our way to show respect for all traditions. I think the best way to honor any one tradition is to honor them all."
The Christmas tree that decorated Strong Hall was removed two years ago after protests by some University students.
The 10-square-foot banners represent Hanukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, Native American Celebrations, Hispanic Celebrations, Chinese New Year and a banner that says "Celebrate them ALL"

Strong Hall also will have a poinsettia display as part of the Lawrence Festival of Poinsettias.

assistant to the chancellor.
Supporters form Haskell Indian Nations University have pointed out the moral side of what used to be just a traffic issue.
Weeds have begun to pop up between the slabs of concrete on the bridge to nowhere across the 3400 block of Iowa Street.
Standing on top of the bridge, one can see the pavement of the western leg of the South Lawrence Trafficway. To the east, wetland fields pave the way.
This bridge is where the South Lawrence Trafficway ends. At least for a while.
The Trafficway was designed to help cut down on the amount of traffic that travels through Lawrence.
Protests and opposition from Haskell Indian Nations University students, alumni and supporters have brought the Trafficway to a standstill.
If finished, the eastern leg of the Trafficway would bypass the Haskell-Baker Wetlands.
Since before Douglas County broke ground for the Trafficway in 1994, the road project has consumed days, weeks and years of the lives of those who have been sucked into the controversy. For them, the South Lawrence Trafficway showdown isn't finished yet.
Thomasine Ross's eyes dart across the commons area of the Kansas Union's fourth floor, then lower as she descends the battle she and her husband, Stan, have fought since 1984.
Stan, an Eastern Band Cherokee, and Thomasine, a member of the Comanche tribe and Wichita tribe, both graduated from Haskell Indian Nations University in 1976 and 1977, respectively. Both are plaintiffs in the Trafficway case.
"We opposed the idea for the Trafficway," Thomasine said. "We were concerned for the future of the wedands and the community."
The Rosses own 40 acres of land near north 1750 and east 1000 roads that was planned to be bisected by the Trafficway in the early days of development.
The Rosses provided the County Council mission with the topography of their property, contending that their land will too hilly for constructing a Trafficway.
The Commission agreed, changed plan and moved the Trafficway a mile and a half west of the Rosses property. But the Rosses have continued to be a party to the main suit.

Some students give thanks for warm holiday weather
The warm weather during Thanksgiving this year was a sharp contrast to the harsh temperatures that the Pilgrims endured at the first celebration of the holiday.
By Carolyn Mollett Kansan staff writer
Some University of Kansas students took advantage of the unseasonably warm weather.
Laura Parada, Santa Cruz, Bolivia,
junior, said she had a lot of home-
work to do during the break. Parada
decided to do her work outdoors at
coffee shops.
"I am really happy with the weather." Parada said.
Parada also went Christmas shopping with her roommate in Kansas City and Lawrence. She said they discussed Thanksgiving break last year when they didn't even want to drive to stores because it rained so much, and they loved the sunny weather this year.
She said she liked wearing short sleeves and not bothering with a coat.
Lawrence did two high-temperature records during Thanksgiving
break, and temperatures consistently remained above normal compared with averages from this time of year, said Mick McGuire, Clearwater junior, who records weather information at the KU weather service.
He said that
AAAAAHHH
He said that the average daily high temperature during the break was 69 degrees, but that high temperatures in late Novem-

Last Tuesday, Lawrence tied its record high temperature of 72 degrees from 1909, McGuire said. Then, he said, on Thanksgiving Day, the high temperature of 71 degrees tied the record high from 1910.
Phillip Bills, also a meteorologist at the National Weather Service in Topeka, said the weather pattern La Niwa was probably responsible for the unseasonable conditions. He said the pattern would probably break eventually and lead to unusually low temperatures.
But Bills said that extreme conditions were a characteristic of La Niña and that the pendulum of weather conditions could continue through the winter.
Kays said that this part of the country got most of its thunderstorms during spring and summer. However, he said that it was not unusual to have rain and thunderstorms come across the plains from the Rocky Mountains and cause stormy weather throughout the year.
A front from the Rockies caused a few hours of windy conditions yesterday, and it rained last night, Kays said.
He said temperatures should cool to highs in the 50 to 60 degree range this week, and no rain or storms were expected until late in the week or next weekend.

Three students improving from hit-and-run injuries
The conditions of the three KU students hospitalized after a hit-and-run accident last week on Massachusetts Street are inimprov, area hospitals reported.
Mark Talley, Lewood sophomore, was released yesterday from Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Talley, 20, had improved steadily since he was admitted to the hospital's intensive-care unit following the Nov. 21 accident.
Justin Barron, San Ramon, Calif., junior and Clinton Rousseau, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, were both taken to the University of Kansas Medical Center in critical condition after the accident.
The students, both 20, have improved to fair condition but remain at the Med Center, said Shirley Osborn, a nursing supervisor there.
Police said they suspected a 42-year-old Bonner Springs man of hitting the three students in his truck about 2 a.m. Nov. 21 while the students were crossing Massachusetts Street near Sixth Street.
Police said the man refused a breathal- iter. He then failed a field sobriety test, after which police drew blood from the man to test for alcohol.
They said they expected results within the week.
Greek service group wins alcohol awareness award
The KU service group GAMMA, Greeks Advocating the Mature Management of Alcohol, won one of six national awards at a conference Nov. 12-14 of GAMMA and BACCHUS, or Boost Alcohol Consciousness Concerning the Health of University Students.
The University's GAMMA was honored at the conference for a new-member lock-in September, said Jennifer Kinney, assistant director for Greek programs, alcohol and risk management education.
Kinney said each group that attended the conference had the chance to submit an activity that had promoted alcohol awareness on campus, and six would be honored at the conference.
The KU organization was the only GAMMA group honored, Kinney said. The other five were BACCHU groups.
Three woman from the KU chapter of GAMMA traveled to Washington, D.C., for the conference, Kinney said. Meghan Flanigan, Amy Knetter and Jamie Harper represented the University's GAMMA program, Kinney said. She said Flanigan was one of the directors of GAMMA and had been instrumental in planning the lock-in.

Ordinance may outlaw loud car radios in area
The Lawrence City Commission approved an ordinance that would make operating a motor vehicle with a loud amplification system that could be heard from a distance of 50 feet ilegal.
The commissioners approved the ordinance on Tuesday and could approve it next week on a second reading. The ordinance would take effect on January 1, 1999.
If it passes, the ordinance will mean a $50 fine for violators. Police could write tickets from their own observations of violations. Also, any citizen could file a complaint with the city prosecutor's office.
Stephanie Holman, Bernardsville, N.J., junior, said she thought the idea was stupid.
"I've never heard anyone in Lawrence pump it up too loud anyway," Holman said.
She said if the car stereo would go really loud, then it should be allowed to be really loud.
"It's your own car," Holman said.

Background check needed for all gun purchases
WASHINGTON — The crush of holiday shopping and the opening of winter hunting season could find gun buyers facing new obstacles today, the first day of operation for a new national system of instant background checks.
The system, operated by the FBI and state governments, replaces the voluntary checks on handgun buyers conducted by state and local police and sheriffs that has been in place since 1993.
The Justice Department had long planned to set the system up and running on Nov. 30, the date set by the 1993 Brady Act, which established federal background checks for handgun purchases.
Under the new system, the number of checks performed will double because a new law requires background approvals not just for handgun buyers but also those who buy rifles and shotguns.
All firearms will be covered now when an owner retrieves a firearm from a pawn shop.
WORLD
KABALO, Congo — No cease-fire will be possible in Congo until President Laurent Kabila negotiates directly with rebels, the insurgents' leader warned yesterday, vowing to continue fighting.
Cease-fire rejected by Congo rebel forces
to a ture during a meeting in Paris. It is to be signed at Congolese peace talks starting Dec. 9 in Lusaka, Zambia.
The rebels were not invited to the Paris talks.
On Saturday, the presidents of Rwanda, Uganda, Zimbabwe and Congo agreed
So far, Kabila has refused to negotiate directly with the rebels, instead demanding that Rwanda and Uganda first end their support for the insurgents and leave Congo. Both countries have said they will stay as long as Congo remains unstable.
Zimbabwe, Angola, Chad and Namibia have sent troops, tanks and jet fighters in support of Kabila.
Wamba, speaking from Bunia on the border with Uganda, said he welcomed the commitment to a cease-fire. But he said they can succeed only if the rebels are included and if Kabila agreed to talk to them.
JAKARTA, Indonesia — A strong earthquake shook a remote island in eastern Indonesia yesterday, killing at least five people and causing terrified residents to flee their homes for the safety of a soccer field.
Big earthquake shakes east Indonesian island
The number of injuries was not immediately known, and the search for casualties was continuing on the island about 1,180 miles east of Indonesia's capital, Jakarta.
The U.S. Geological Survey in Washington said the quake had a preliminary magnitude of 7.6 and was centered at or close to nearby Taliabu island in the Maluku Sea, about 230 miles south of the city of Manado on Suluweni island.
local police Sgt. Yopi Sarivating said the five victims on Mangole were killed when the roof of a plywood factory collapsed.
Swiss voters turn down legalization of heroin
GENEVA — The Swiss yesterday voted overwhelmingly against legalizing heroin and other narcotics, apparently heeding government warnings that the proposed law would turn their pristine Alpine nation into a drug haven.
With all ballots counted, 74 percent voted against a constitutional amendment that would make legal "the consumption, cultivation or possession of drugs, and their acquisition for personal use."
Last year, the Swiss were the first in the world to vote overwhelmingly in favor of state distribution of heroin to hardened addicts.
The government opposed the plan, saying it was a health risk and would turn Switzerland into a haven for drug tourists and traffickers. It said the current policy of helping hard-core addicts while clamping down on dealers was best.
No other European nation, not even the Netherlands, has legalized the possession or sale of any drugs or has plans to do so. In Holland, soft drugs such as marijuana are decriminalized and Dutch authorities don't prosecute people who sell or use small amounts.
Power problems still unresolved at KU library
The Associated Press
library needs at peak times, such as when both air conditioners are running.
Continued from page 1A
"We just about sunk when we saw that," Porter said. "Using this transformer is cheaper than running a generator, but we will have to order a new one."
Porter said documentation provided by Lyons and two independent testing agencies did not reveal the lack of power before the transformer arrived.
The cost for a new transformer is estimated at $20,000. Once ordered, the transformer will take four to six weeks to arrive, and the library will close again for the installation.
Porter said the next installation would be done at a time when the least number of students would be inconvenienced, such as during a weekend or another break in classes.
The relationship between Lyons and the University is strained, Porter said. Lyons supplied another transformer earlier in the month that was rejected because it did not work at all.
At that time, the University stopped payment on its check to Lyons. Porter said that the company probably would be paid now, but that the amount of payment might be adjusted down from the $6,000 contract price.
Other expenses incurred by the University because of the delay in getting a functioning transformer included $2,600 per week for a gas generator to power the library, $315 per day for fuel and employee costs for working on the problem.
The library operated on the generator beginning Oct. 30 and remained on it until Nov. 26, when the new transformer was taken up to full power.
Rholes said everything was working properly at Watson after the transformer installation. She said the library was busy last Tuesday as students anticipated the temporary closing, but when the library reopened on Friday traffic was light.
She said remote online access to library resources was not interrupted during the closing.
"I hope we didn't inconvenience too many people," Rholes said. "This is a very busy time for our users, so the closing bothered us from that point of view."
Rholes said library employees were offered the option of taking vacation days or being assigned to tasks at other University libraries during the library repair closings.
For those who got behind on research during the shutdowns, Rholes said the library would have extended hours during the next two weekends.
Nichols will appeal bombing conviction
DENVER — Terry Nichols has asked that all 12 judges of the 10 U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals hear legal arguments in the appeal of his conviction in the Oklahoma City bombing.
A U.S. District Court jury convicted Nichols, who lived in Herington, of conspiracy and involuntary manslaughter in the April 19, 1995,
bombing that killed 168 people and injured hundreds more. Judge Richard Matsch sentenced him to life in prison.
Usually, a three-judge panel of the appeals court would hear legal arguments and issue a ruling. Then the losing side could ask for another hearing before all 12 judges. In a petition filed Friday, Nichols' attorneys asked that the case go directly to the full panel.
PARKER
Nichols: Says jury's instructions hurt his case.
Nichols' attorneys contend that Matsch wrongly instructed the jury that Nichols did not have to intend to kill anyone to be guilty of the conspiracy.
Nichols' co-defendant, Timothy McMeigh, was convicted last year on murder, conspiracy and weapons counts and sentenced to death. He also is appealing.

Eight days of Chanukah:
Each night after sundown,
another candle on the Menorah is lit (One for the first day, two the second etc.) and prayers are said.

December includes many holidays
Kwanzaa, Chanukah not just Christmas celebrated in month
By Steph Brewer
Kansan staff writer
December for most Americans means mistletoe, Christmas trees, Santa Claus and presents.
But for some Americans, December has nothing to do with Christmas. The month is also the time of Chanukah, the eight-day Jewish festival of lights, and Kwanzaa, a seven-day African-American cultural celebration.
Despite efforts on the part of American society to be politically correct, some people say these two holidays continue to be surrounded by ignorance and misconceptions.
"You have a lot more of the minority knowing what Christmas is about than the majority knowing about Chanukah or Kwanzaa," said Dion Jones, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, senior.
Alan Potter, Iola sophomore, said that the ignorance came from the makeup of American society.
"I guess more people don't know
anything because we're in a predominantly Christian society," Potter said. "Most of our laws are based on Christian precepts and that allows people very little room to be exposed to other faiths."
The American understanding of Chanukah has changed throughout the years.
"Personally, I think it's very Americanized," said Nikki Anesi, Chicago junior. "I think it's lost a Jewish perspective and become sort of the matching to Christmas in society's eyes."
Besides the religious differences, the importance of Chanukah and Christmas varies greatly.
"We're not dealing with holidays of equal weight," said Steve Jacobson, executive director of University of Kansas Hillel Foundation.
Christmas is one of Christianity's most important holidays, whereas Chanukah's gift-giving is traditionally not nearly as lavish as that of Christmas. There are eight days of gifts at Chanukah, but the presents are often small trinkets, such as books or calendars.
Jacobson said the reason that many Americans saw Chanukah as the big Jewish holiday was
"I think it comes from good intentions," Jacobson said. "They're wanting to be inclusive. The problem is people make assumptions instead of asking questions."
Celebrants of Kwanzaa face a different problem. Many Americans don't even know what the holiday concerns.
"I think they just think it's a thing African Americans do after Christmas," said Yasmeen Coleman, Kansas City, Kan., junior.
Coleman said she didn't celebrate Kwanzaa as a child because her father was Muslim. She celebrated her first Kwanzaa two years ago with friends.
Kwanzaa was founded in 1966 in America by Maulana Karenga.The celebration is based on seven principles: unity, self-determination, collective works, cooperative economics, creativity, purpose and faith.
because it is in December.
"I think the principles behind it are fundamental," she said. "We should all be promoting unity amongst ourselves."
Coleman said because of the focus of Kwanzaa, the holiday could be appreciated by everyone.
Kwanzaa has a gift-giving ceremony, but it is a very different one from that of Christmas.
"You have a lot more of the minority knowing what Christmas is about than the majority knowing about Chanukah or Kwanzaa."
Dion Jones Virgin Islands senior
"To show how important it is, the gifts have to be handmade," Coleman said.
Amy Miller, Topeka senior, said that she thought Chanukah and Kwanzaa were less focused on gifts and therefore less commercialized.
"There's not as much publicity surrounding Kwanzaa and Chanukah," she said.
Traffic accidents mar long holiday weekend
Coleman said that she would like more Americans to learn about Kwanzaa but that she wouldn't want it to become as commercialized as Christmas.
"I think making it commercialized lessens it," she said.

Driving was harsh during Thanksgiving week, Lawrence police said.
There were six traffic-related deaths in Kansas during the break and at least two KU students' trips home were delayed by an accident that hospitalized a 30-year-old Eudora woman.
The most recent fatality occurred early yesterday morning. Daniel
A large truck driven north by 20-year-old Lawrence resident James Toomay about 7 p.m. just north of 19th Street on Iowa Street plowed into a Chevy Beretta driven by 21-year-old Misty Sigler, Iola sophomore. Sigler and passenger Jared Spence, a 20-year-old Iola junior, suffered minor injuries. but were not hospitalized.
The truck then smashed into a second car, injuring Eudora resident Cindy Payne, 30, who was then taken to the University of Kansas Medical Center, where she was admitted in serious condition Tuesday night. Her condition was upgraded to fair, said Shirley Osborn, a Med Center nursing supervisor.
The Kansas Highway Patrol reported six fatal car accidents in the state between 6 p.m. Wednesday and 6 p.m. yesterday.
Morse, 27, from Merriam, died when the car he was driving struck a tree in the Kansas City area, the Kansas Highway Patrol said.
A 10-year-old girl died about 5:45 p.m. Saturday when she was hit by a car as she tried to run across U.S. Highway 77 near Junction City, the Kansas Highway Patrol said.
A 45-year-old Trenton, Mo., man died Saturday from injuries he suffered in a motorcycle wreck Friday in the Kansas City area.
Matthew Linn, 16, of Wichita, died when the car he was in collided with another car in Wichita about 12:30 a.m. Saturday.
Cynthia M. Whisnet, 42, of Kansas City, Kan., died about 10 p.m. Thursday when the car she was driving struck a light pole on Interstate 635 in Kansas City, Kan.
Roma Boschowitzki, 72, of Ellis, died Thursday when the car she was in ran off a county road west of Winona about 11:15 a.m., said Logan County Sheriff Parons.
Last year, three people were killed on Kansas highways during the Thanksgiving holiday weekend, which runs from 6 p.m. Wednesday through midnight Sunday.

KU Habitat for Humanity has blueprint for helping
Kansan staff writer
By Julie M. Sachs
Plans are underway for the University of Kansas chapter of Habitat for Humanity to raise about $45,000 to build a house.
Members hope to begin construction within three or four years.
The group, which consists of about 30 members, will be working independently from its Lawrence affiliate, but parts of the project still will go through the Lawrence chapter of Habitat for Humanity.
"We're not trying to distance our
selves from the Lawrence chapter, but we want to contribute more," said Jeff Williams, Lawrence senior and president of the KU chapter of Habitat for Humanity.
Troy Fowler, Minneapolis, senior and finance chairman for the KU chapter, said that the Lawrence affiliate would still be responsible for finding the building site and the family that the house would be built for.
But this would be the first house that would be financed entirely by the KU chapter.
The group has been busy finding sponsors to help with the cost of the

"Basically, we're hoping to get corporate support and student support," Fowler said. "It will show the
Student Senate also supports the chapter by providing the group with funding for advertising costs.
Lawrence community that students have a vested interest in the Lawrence community."
Williams said that Habitat helped to eliminate impoverished housing.
"This isn't a house for the homeless," Williams said.
Individuals who are selected to receive a Habitat house pay for their house through no-interest mortgages. They pay no more than what the house cost to build. Williams said.
The family must also help with the manual work that goes into building a Habitat home. The family members must complete a total of 375 sweat-
equity hours along with the mortgage payments.
In addition to building their own house, the family members must help build to other houses. Williams said Essentially, habitat families help to build their neighbors' houses.
"It makes borrowing sugar a lot easier," Williams said.
Sweat-equity hours also can be earned through office work for Habitat.
In the end, Williams said that families were left with a house that would sell for twice what the family paid for it.

"It's such a great thing," he said. "It lets people build equity."

I CANNOT TELL A LIE —
IT'S KEN STARR'S FAULT!
Editorial
Incoming freshmen visits cause chaos for students, but beneficial
As high school seniors get closer to deciding on a university, more and more of them will be visiting the University of Kansas. Although tours for high school students provide prospective students an excellent opportunity to see what life at the University is like, they also can interfere with KU students' schedules. Efforts should be made to minimize these conflicts.
A major inconvenience that residence-hall residents have endured are touring groups that eat at the Ekdahl Dining Commons.
Kim Beeler, Assistant Director of On-Campus Programs for the Office of Admissions, said that student groups touring the residence halls and cafeteria try to get through before the peak hours at Mrs. E's.
However, when tours sometimes run past the time budgeted, the groups end up eating at Mrs. E's while many KU students are trying to eat between classes.
The Office of Admissions should be sensitive to KU students' schedules.
Although the Senior Day groups reserve tables in only one section of the cafeteria, it can be difficult for KU students to find a place to eat.
As a result, many students go to E's Express in Hashinger Hall, which then becomes overcrowded as well.
Although KU students who rely on Mrs. E's to eat every day are inconvenienced, Beeler said that attempts are made to see that this happens as little as possible.
The Department of Student Housing posts fliers letting residents know when groups will be coming through. According to Beeler, allowing prospective students to have as realistic a look at college, which includes eating at the cafeteria. is an important part of the tour.
"Mrs. E's and housing tours are a great way of doing this. In order to attract the best freshman class, we need support from everyone," she said. Beeler also said that students in Oliver Hall would sometimes eat with prospective students. She said that the people on the tour appreciated the opportunity to talk with KU students.
Students inconvenienced at Mrs. E's have a legitimate complaint. Efforts should continue to be made for the groups to avoid busy cafeteria hours. Students eating at Mrs. E's also should try to accommodate for the busy days. Most of all, communication lines should be kept open between students in the residence halls and those administering the tours.

Perspective
Student senators should steer clear of bad politics
I thought I was going to have a few months or at least a few weeks to recover from the recent national elections. Unfortunately, it looks like the cam
paign for next year's Student Senate elections already is under way.
PETER SCHNEIDER
There have been several stories in the Kansan recently that had campaign overtones. Starting about a month ago, there have been several reports in the Kansan, including a front-page story in which some Delta Force senators accused Scott Kaiser, student body vice president, of rolling his eyes at a Student Senate

meeting. This shocking allegation was made by means of a delivered letter that was signed by six members of the Student Senate Executive Committee.
The article didn't even mention that every person who signed the letter ran on the Delta Force ticket last year. Am I supposed to believe that this was not a return to last spring's negative campaign tactics, which were used by some Delta Force candidates?
The outcome of the recent national election should convince anyone that negative campaigning is not what voters want. The Republican Party tried to turn public sentiment against the Democrats by making a big deal out of Monicagate, and look what happened. The president's party actually increased the number of seats it held in Congress during a mid-term election.
Let's see if I've got this right. The Republican Party relied on political attacks against President Clinton to generate public support for its candidates, and it failed. Delta Force made use of attacks against Campus Cause candidates last year and lost the presidential race. Now, they've started the same attacks several months before next semester's election. I must be missing something here.
The worst part of this is that Delta Force won a slim majority of seats in the Senate in the last election, and yet I can't see that they have changed anything for the better. Granted, that margin was the result of
winning several seats in races with a very low turnout, but a lack of a voter mandate is no excuse for not changing the system. What happened to all those claims of "passion and commitment?"
Delta Force senators have done some things that have captured public attention. Mark Horowitz, graduate senator and president of the Graduate Teaching Assistants Coalition, pressed for passage of a bill in the Kansas Legislature that offers subsidized health coverage for some graduate students.
Yet after the Republican-controlled legislature passed the health care bill, the GTAC union publicly endorsed the Democratic slate in the latest election. This should guarantee that the Republican-controlled legislature won't look favorably on legislation proposed by the GTAC union in the future.
There also is last year's Delta Force candidate Nicole Skalla, now the transportation coordinator for KU on Wheels. Skalla made a proposal a few months ago that reluctantly offered the suggestion that KU students be kept in the dark about the failure of the new KUID readers on the buses.
I don't want to be critical of these two people. Everyone makes mistakes, and I have never known either one of them to engage in attacks on the character of other people. I just want to point out that none of their actions resulted in public criticism from Delta Force senators. And certainly none of these actions resulted in Delta Force senators requesting that the StudEx look into the matter.
But if a few Delta Force senators want to accuse Kaiser of (gasp!) rolling his eyes during an incredibly tedious meeting, we'll have an investigation and a front-page scandal on our hands. I suppose you can't stop politicians from trying to influence voters, but three campaigns in less than a year is more than I can bear.
My only hope for this upcoming election is that each coalition will sign and abide by a pledge to avoid negative campaign tactics.

Controversy surrounds construction of trafficway through area wetlands
Continued from page 1A
The Ross' involvement has been a tiring experience for their family. Many evenings, Thomasine and her husband have attended meetings and protests when they could have been spending time with their two sons.
"Before filing the lawsuit, we discussed how it would change and affect our lives," Thomasine said. "We knew that this was just the beginning."
Her eyes light up, however, as she explains the role she believes she is filling by representing the 42 different tribes at Haskell.
"I've had a lot of people thank me for fighting the city on putting the road through," Thomasine said. "It just gets tiring because it's really hard to explain spirituality and our cultural ways, the things we we've grown up with. We've survived since the beginning of the white man, and we aren't going to change our culture now."
She said that the eastern leg of the Trafficway would affect those who use the Haskell Medicine Wheel and the sweat lodges on the Wetlands. They serve as sacred places for worship in relation to nature and require quiet surroundings.
"Some tribes draw their strength and their spirituality from the Medicine Wheel and sweat lodges," Thomasine said. "I think we need to keep this opportunity available to students. You put in a trafficway and you take away from that opportunity. We will keep fighting this until it's over."
six-and-a-half years later in 1998, Pasley has finally received a break.
The people who hired John Pasley told him that the job of South Lawrence Trafficway project manager would only last one, maybe two years. Six and a half years later in 1908 Pasley
"The position required a lot more work that I originally anticipated." Pasley said recently. "For example, the design plans had to come out of county hands, and state specifications came into play and the plans had to be reworked. Then state and federal money had to be brought in. There were just a lot of different aspects to the project that I hadn't even considered."
Pasley admitted that he had underestimated the reactions of the townpeople. City meetings where Haskell supporters ripped apart his plans and ideas were not something that Pasley had anticipated. Pasley said that because there are more people in Lawrence, there were more hearings where questions were asked.
"You have to listen to the people because there are a lot of folks who are experts on construction and the environment." he said.
W
Pasley said that it had been much more difficult to build a road because of Lawrence's proactive population. He said that he understood Haskell students, alumni and supporters' position. He also has his own goal: getting the road built.
Until construction resumes, Pasley will be on retainer with the county. Now, he only spends about 10-20 hours a week.
month on the project. Until then, Pasley will be spending his time as the deputy project manager on his next project: the $2 billion, 630-acre Kansas International Speedway in Kansas City, in Wyandotte County.
Bev Worster spends her days buried in legal paperwork.
Last year, she quit her job as a teacher at Lawrence High School and focused her time on the South Lawrence Trafficway.
Worster is president of the Douglas County Preservation Alliance, whose mission is to preserve built and natural environments. She began studying the developments in the South Lawrence Trafficway case in 1992.
At the time, Haskell students and faculty had just dedicated the Haskell Medicine Wheel.
"I had been following the case because I was concerned with the future of the wetlands," Worter said. "I decided to volunteer my time because I thought that I could do something to help out."
She began raising funds, attending meetings at the county offices and at Haskell, and voicing her views at speeches and public rallies.
In 1996, Worster ran for Douglas County Commissioner and against the South Lawrence Trafficway. She lost, but still continues to support the opposition to the Trafficway.
"I think that some people are trying to turn this into an economic issue, but when it really comes down to it, it's a moral issue," Worster said. "I plan to be involved in varying extents until the whole thing is resolved. If it is ever settled, there will be a gap in my life."
In the fall of 1996, Bruce Plenk found himself representing the plaintiffs in the South Lawrence Traffic lawsuit when the attorney previously representing the case took another job.
Now he is the main lawyer fighting the continuation of the Trafficoav. For free.
Plenk is a lawyer in private practice and a visiting professor at Washburn University.
"This case shows the importance of working to preserve the few places that are still around and haven't been taken over by developers." Plenk said. "The last thing this town needs is another freeway."
The suit essentially asks that the Trafficway bypass the Haskell-Baker wetlands.
Plenk prefers continuing the Trafficway through farm property rather than through the Wetlands.
"This is a no-brainer." Plenk said. "I like farms, but the difference is that there are a lot of farms, and there are very few wetlands."
Plenk is unsure how long the case will last.
"It could be days, maybe months before we know what our next step will be," Plenk said. "My obligation is to represent my clients and this case, and I will stick to that until it's all over."
After afternoons in the courtroom, Plenk has often paid visits to the Wetlands. He hopes to continue doing that for many years to come.
"I wanted to become a part of this case because I saw how pretty the Wetlands are," Plenk said. "It is just such a pretty and quiet place, and that will all be destroyed if they continue the Trafficway."
In August of 1994, Jason Daniels read about beaver dam destruction in the wake of the South Lawrence Trafficway construction. That affected Daniels so

Thomasine Ross, a 1977 Haskell graduate and a local land owner, has used her determination and love of the land to lead a successful lawsuit against the South Lawrence Trafficway.
much that he chose to sign on as a plaintiff in the South Lawrence Trafficway case.
Daniels said the reason he chose to become a plaintiff in the case was because he thought he knew more about it than most students at the University. After reading Traffic story stories in the Kansan and the Lawrence-journal World, Daniels became frustrated and upset.
Daniels, a Colby fifth-year senior, became involved with KU Environs as a freshman, attending information meetings at Haskell about the case as a representative from the University.
"I saw a whole room full of people just pour their hearts out at one of the meetings." Daniels said. "The representatives from the county didn't even blink in response."
On a daily basis, Daniels researches material for the case, by studying documents and attending meetings.
He said he thought it would be nice if the County would recommend a route south of the Wakarua River that would not interfere with the Wetlands. Daniels said he planned to see the case through to the end.
"I used to think that it would be best if they didn't build the Trafficway at all," Daniels said. "But now, they just made a mess of everything, and I think it would be best if they recommended a route that did not go through the Wetlands."
On Nov. 17, three judges in Denver ruled that construction would remain halted until a supplementary environmental impact statement and a noise study were completed by Douglas County and the Kansas Department of Transportation.
This would require the county and the department to meet with the Army Corps of Engineers and the Federal Highway Administration to develop alternate routes for the Trafficway.
They would be required to explain what environmental and cultural impact the Trafficway would have.
But for the time being, Douglas County has chosen not to continue work on the Trafficway. The $11 million may be spent on another county project.
The weeds that have appeared in the cracks of the bridge crossing the 3400 block of Iowa Street will cease their growth as northern winds begin to chill Kansas forests and leave frost on wetlands vegetation.

Health center included in two studies
Research will track diseases diagnosed in college students
By Sue Franke
Kansan staff writer
Watkins Memorial Health Center is participating in two research studies to track college students whose meningococcal disease, chickenpox or shingles have been diagnosed.
Results from the chickenpox and shingles study will be used to encourage more widespread use of the vaccine to prevent chickenpox. Results from the meningococcal study will help the American College Health Association establish a national policy to determine who should receive a preventative vaccine.
"We have seen an increase in meningococcal cases and outbreaks on college campuses," said Jennifer Capparella, meningitis/varicella project coordinator for the ACHA. "Since Sept. 1, 1998, there have been 18 cases of students diagnosed with meningococcal disease, a type of bacterial meningitis. Two of the 18 cases resulted in deaths. The 18 cases reported came from all colleges in the United States, not just those participating in the study."
Capparella defined an outbreak as three or more isolated cases occurring in three months or less. Meningococcal disease is the leading cause of bac
terial meningitis in young adults in the United States, causing about 430 cases annually among people ages 18 to 24. The disease is responsible for about 300 deaths in the United States each year. Last fall, Robert Brogi, who was a Deerfield, Ill., somborem, died of a meningococcal infection.
Randall Rock, chief of staff for Watkins, said that no group routinely received the preventative vaccine for the disease except U.S. military recruits who live in close quarters. He said that college students in residence halls were at an increased risk for contracting meningococcal meningitis. Rock said that although it was not required, he encouraged students to consider receiving the vaccine, which costs $60 at Watkins and is effective for three years.
Capparella said the study would help identify subgroups of college students who might be at increased risk for infection.
Symptoms of meningococcal meningitis include high fever, severe headache, stiff neck, nausea, vomiting and sleepiness. The disease is spread through the exchange of respiratory and throat secretions but not by casual contact.
The second study is one that will be used to provide information about chickenpox and shingles infections among college students. The varicella virus causes both chickenpox and shingles.
Rock said he has been surprised to have seen several students a month this year who have had shingles. Shingles occur when the inactive vari-
If you have contracted meningococcal disease, the chickenpox or shingles since September 1998, contact Watkins Memorial Health Center at 864-9500.
REPORT TO WATKINS
cella virus travels back from the nerve roots to the skin. Shingles causes itching or pain followed by clusters of blister-like lesions. About one in every 1,000 college-age students contracts shingles each year, according to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention.
Although most people contract chickenpox when they are young, about two to six of every 1,000 college-age students have chickenpox each year, according to the CDC. It is highly contagious. Symptoms include itchy rash, fatigue and fever.
Rock said he encouraged students who think they have had chickenpox or shingles since September 1998, and have not seen a physician, to call Watkins so their cases can be reported as part of the study.
Capparella said that although the two studies are not related to one another, they are being conducted at the same time with the same 250 colleges and universities in 49 states, which represent 2.2 million students. Kansas State University is the only other university in Kansas participating in the studies. The studies, sponsored by the ACHA with consultation from the CDC, began in September 1998 and will be conducted during the next year.
New law will require emergency hospital care
Lack of insurance will not prevent treatment
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Hospitals can't delay or deny emergency-room care just because a patient's health insurance plan requires permission before treatment, government regulators are ready to announce this week.
A 1986 law bars hospital emergency rooms from refusing to examine and stabilize patients who can't pay. Now, federal officials will use the "patient dumping" prohibition to ensure immediate care whether or not insurance pays.
"Despite the terms of any managed care agreements ... federal law requires that stabilizing medical treatment be provided in an emergency," said Health and Human Services Department Inspector General June Gibbs Brown.
The 1986 law was intended mainly to protect people without health insurance. However, delays while emergency room staff consult with health plans to see if insurance will pay are on the rise, regulators say. In some cases, federal officials say, patients with potentially serious health conditions have left emergency rooms after being questioned about their insurance.
To deter such incidents, the U.S. government will begin applying the patient dumping law, which carries fines up to $50,000 per incident.
American Hospital Association spokesman Rick Wade said clarification in the law is welcome. But, he said, "It's not going to solve the problem of some plans deciding that they'll use pre-authorization
rules as a way not to pay hospitals."
It has become more common for HMOs and other health plans to control costs by refusing to pay unless patients first get permission from designated doctors.
Plans that cover elderly, disabled and low-income Americans in government health insurance programs such as Medicare or Medicaid must waive such requirements for emergency care in situations a "prudent layperson" would judge to be a medical crisis — such as having symptoms of a heart attack.
Karen Ignagni, president of the American Association of Health Plans, said the group's members which include insurers covering 150 million Americans already voluntarily use the "prudent layperson" standard.
However, gray areas abound,
when health plans won't pay for
emergency care and hospitals get stuck with the bill for patients who can't pay themselves. Many plans would not pay if a parent took a feverish baby to the hospital without first calling their pediatrician to make sure an emergency room visit is necessary.
"We want to make sure patients are seeking care in the most appropriate setting," Ignagni said. That means not going to the hospital "just because it's the most convenient place to seek treatment on a weekend or after hours."
Hospitals can't make such distinctions, however, according to the new government guidelines.
Emergency room personnel can't send a patient to a clinic or doctor's office without first doing a medical exam to be sure immediate care isn't required to avoid seriously jeopardizing the person's health.
Alcohol task force studying different recommendations
By Seth Jones Kansan staff writer
The citywide alcohol task force, which has convened to identify strategies to curb underage drinking, met last week to narrow its list of recommendations.
Officials from the city of Lawrence, the University of Kansas, Haskell Indian Nations University, business owners and students make up the task force.
University of Kansas representatives on the task force have their own idea of what the group should recommend.
David Ambler, vice chancellor and task force member, said that so far the task force had focused just on the underage drinkers.
"I'm concerned because there has been more emphasis on those people violating the law, rather than those people who are aiding and abetting these people," Amber said.
Ambler said he wanted to see laws for people who make false identifications become more severe.
"Someone who makes a living helping people violate the law needs to be harshly punished," he said. "It's already a felony, but I personally would like to see extremely heavy consequences for violation of that law."
Ambler said he also wanted to see heavier consequences for bar owners and retail liquor stores that knowingly sell to minors.
Some members of the task force want to see significant increases in fines for underage drinkers.
David Corliss, the city's director of legal services said a fine of $200 or more was better then the current fine of less than $75 for possession of alcohol by minors.
Kevin Yoder, student body president and task force member, said he wanted the main concern to be student safety.
"The risk that goes along with drinking is what I'm concerned about," Yoder said. "My basic philosophy is that most students and most people in society feel it's OK for students to enjoy their college years and enjoy a couple beers."
Ambler said he also wanted to see more time spent on drinking education.
A greater emphasis on education with the family was necessary. Ambler said.
"This probably reflects the frustration with the current alcohol-education program," Ambler said. "Across the country it seems to be very ineffective, mainly because often they're preaching to the chair."
Mayor Marty Kennedy said that curbing underage drinking was a two-edged sword.
"Nothing is going to stop students from getting a fake ID," Kennedy said. "We all have to work together to try and lower the abuse of alcohol by underage drinkers."

Student-directed Pot-Pourri plays to take center stage tonight at Murphy
By Mariana Paiva
Kansan staff writer
Three University of Kansas graduate students did extra work during their last month of classes to entertain students on campus before finals.
Maggie Baldomir, Buenos Aires, Argentina, graduate student; Vincent Worthington, East Lansing, Mich., graduate student; and Janna Ziegler, Kansas City, Mo., graduate student, were the students chosen this year to direct the annual Pot-Pourri series.
Pot-Pourri productions, a series of student-directed plays at the Inge Theatre in Murphy Hall, will open tonight with Eleemosynny by Lee Blessing.
Worthington, director of Eleemosynary, said that directors are recommended to choose plays with a small cast and less elaborated sets and props.
He said the goal is low-budget theater.
"The main purpose of the series is to focus on the relationship between the director and the actors," he said.
In *Eleemosynary*, three women examine the relationship among a young girl, her mother and her grandmother.
"Basically, it is a show about forgiveness," Worthington said. "It is about three women from different generations in a family struggling to understand each other and deal with each others faults."
Eleemosynary begins at 8 p.m. tonight, tomorrow and Wednesday.
General admission tickets for the three plays are on sale at the

The play will be performed at 8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday in the Inge Theatre.
The last production of the Pot Pourri series is Kiss of the Spider Woman directed by Baldomir.
The play is set in a Latin American jail cell and shows how two prisoners with nothing in common, a political prisoner and a homosexual window dresser, manage to form a bond to help each other survive the abuse and terror of prison. It is based on the novel by Argentinean author Manuel Puig.
"The play focuses on the relationship between both characters and the political meaning behind it." Baldomir said.

Live from Liberty Hall, it was the Imagination Workshop.
The show also aired live on 91.5 KANU.
A group of eight thespi-
planes performed more than
10 short comedy skirts for
an hour and 20 minutes
Saturday night at Liberty
Hall, 642 Massachusetts St.
Imagination Workshop is a takeoff of the television show Saturday Night Live — except the performers read their lines from scripts for a radio audience instead of a television audience.
"It's like Saturday Night Live when it was funny, on radio," said Margi Posten, cast member and one of the writers for the production.
The subject matter for the scripts included spoofs of Jesse "The Body" Ventura, Ross Perot, Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky.
One of the skits was about a fictional radio show, with actor Antonio Banderas as the host, Banderas "guests" included Courtney Love and other Hollywood stars, who attempted to talk about themselves but kept getting interrupted by Banderas, who was angry for not being named People's Sexiest Man Alive.
The acting group is composed of professional actors, such as Posten, and other actors who merely perform for a hobby.
"This is a real creative outlet for us because a lot of the other stuff we do
gets boring," Posten said.
This was the 10th season Posten has worked with the workshop.
Linn Weeks, Kansas City,
Mo., resident, said she
enjoyed the comedy skits.
The audience of 500 left Liberty Hall laughing and smiling.
"I had seen it before and had also heard it on radio, but I appreciated it more in person because of the visual," Weeks said.
Although there were not a lot of KU students at the event, Posten said she thought students would enjoy the show.
"We don't get a lot of KU students, but if they like Saturday Night Live, then they would like the show." Posten said.
The Imagination Workshop began in 1983 and was performed only as a studio show. In 1985, the workshop was performed in front of a live studio audience for the first time at the Lawrence Arts Center, 200 W.9th St.
In 1992, the show moved to Liberty Hall.
There were two performances Saturday night. The first show took place at 5 p.m. and the second show followed at 8 p.m. The latter was the show that aired on the radio station and will be sold to National Public Radio stations across the country.
Darrell Brogdon, writer and producer of the show, said KANU would replay the performance at some time in mid-December.
The Imagination Workshop is scheduled to perform another comedy show at Liberty Hall on Feb. 6.

Terry Allen approached about Iowa coaching job
By Matthew Friedrichs Kansan sports editor
Kansan sports editor
Kansas football coach Terry Allen is a candidate to replace Hayden Fry, the Iowa football coach who retired Nov. 23.
Bob Frederick, athletics director, said Saturday he had given Iowa permission to talk to Allen, and Allen confirmed in a statement yesterday that he would talk to Iowa officials.
"I'm flattered from both a professional and personal viewpoint to be mentioned as a candidate for the job, and because of those reasons, I feel a degree of obligation to look into the position," Allen said. "I can confirm that I have been contacted about the job."
Yesterday, the Des Moines Register reported that Allen interviewed Saturday for the job.
Allen is one of four coaches who have been mentioned as replacements for Fry, who coached Iowa for 20 years.
Chuck Long, Iowa quarterbacks coach, reportedly interviewed Friday for the position, and Don Patterson, Iowa's offensive coordinator, interviewed yesterday for the job.
But the front-runner, according to Chris Snider, sports editor at the Daily Iowan in Iowa City, is Bobby Stoops, Florida's defensive coordinator.
Allen is a candidate because of his ties to Iowa, something Fry and Bob Bowlsby, Iowa athletics director, said they want in the new coach.
Allen played at Northern Iowa, before
Bowsby, then Northern Iowa's athletics director, hired him as the head coach in 1989. Allen's Northern Iowa teams were 75-26. Kansas hired Allen two years ago. He is 9-13 after two seasons in Lawrence.
Allen also grew up in Iowa City, where his father, Robert, was the Iowa swimming coach.
Allen was unavailable yesterday because he was driving to Iowa City to visit his mother, who has been hospitalized since Tuesday.
"My sole purpose in making this trip is to be with my mother, and I will not be meeting with anyone from the University of Iowa during the visit." Allen said in a statement.
Allen reiterated his connection to Kansas that he made at his final press conference of the year last week.
"I want everyone to understand that nothing has changed in terms of my full commitment to the University of Kansas and the football program," Allen said. "I want to do everything within my power to bring the program to a level of success that we all expect."
Bowlby, who is heading up the search for a new coach, has said he would not discuss potential candidates.
But Bowlsby did comment on a report in the Gainesville, Fla., Sun that he and Fry would travel to Gainesville this week and offer Stoops a package worth more than $500,000 a year to become the Iowa coach.

Kansas goes down to the wire with Baylor
Commentary Final game, tests cause some reflection
But for most students on campus, the day will come when they are done—when they graduate and become alumni.
For some students, Dec. 17 is the last day of final exams — ever. For others, those final tests won't be finished until May.
That was evident as setter Laura Rhode, outside hitter Leslie Purkeypile and outside hitter Moira Donovan prepared for their final volleyball match Saturday night at Allen Field House.
For wet-behind-the-ears freshmen, college was something new in August. For grizzled-veteran seniors, their stint at the University of Kansas will end soon.
Emotions were high as the announcer introduced them one by one.
They greeted loved ones, embraced coaches and accepted flowers from their teammates.
Then they played for the last time — a five-game loss to Baylor.
The final game, the final exam, the final day on campus and in Lawrence are things that will happen to all of us.
Civic jobs, college athletics and academia — let's ignore our favorite seventh and eighth-year seniors for a moment — has a defined beginning and end.
Unlike jobs, college athletics and acade-
COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY
All of us, whether we're student athletes or student bar patrons or just plain students, come to the University and leave as different people.
We grow in knowledge and understanding -- about ourselves, about those around us and (hopefully) about a specialized academic area.
But the volleyball, football and soccer athletes, who completed their final season as Jayhawks this fall, have also given much of themselves to the University.
Matt
Friedrichs
sparts@kansan.com
They've left hours of practice, gallons of perspiration and immeasurable effort on the playing fields, in the weight room and in the training room.
And for what? Some wins, a full or partial scholarship (except for non-scholarship walk-ons), the joy of competition and pride.
They've represented the University, wearing the crimson and blue as Jayhawks for one, two, three and four years.
And of course, there's the camaraderie and friendships. You could see Rhode's enthusiasm, which has been there since practice in August, in the actions of freshman settler Molly LaMere.
Look around you as you walk across campus. Some of your fellow students are in their final days here.
Take some time to congratulate your friends who will be finishing and moving on. If you're graduating, spend a few minutes reflecting on the good and bad of your stay in Lawrence.
And, if you feel sentimental, don't be afraid to shed a few tears. I saw a couple Saturday, and I've also seen football players do the same at the end of their season.

Jayhawks' loss drops team to losing record
By Laura Bokenkroger
Kansan sportswriter
It wasn't enough.
Although the Kansas volleyball team improved in many ways from last year — finishing with six more wins, including three more conference wins — the seniors said that they were disappointed.
After the heartbreaking, five-game loss to Baylor on Saturday that ended the season for the Jayhawks, senior setter Laura Rohde said that it had been a frustrating season.
"We played better at the beginning of the season," Rohde said. "We weren't lacking enthusiasm. We wanted to compete, and that wasn't in a lot of the games. We had so many chances this season that we didn't take advantage of."
The Jayhawks, 15-17 overall and 5-15 in the Big 12 Conference, finished eighth in the conference this season, improving from 10th last year.
But that wasn't much consolation. After three consecutive losing seasons, the seniors wanted to go out winning. Going into last weekend, they had to win both conference matches to accomplish that goal.
No. 22 Texas Tech erased the Jayhawks' hope of a winning season by sweeping them Friday night 15-8, 15-5 and 15-6. In an offensive breakdown, the Jayhawks hitting percentage was .093.
Trying to escape a losing season Saturday night, Kansas battled a scrappy Baylor team for five games. After falling 15-6 in the first game, the Jayhawks rallied behind senior outside hitter Moira Donovan, who had 24 kills in the match, to win the second game 15-8.
The momentum swung back to Baylor late in game three as they came back from a 10-6 deficit to win 15-13. The Jayhawks fell behind quickly 5-1 in the fourth game and had to come from behind.
"We showed some courage in game four," said coach Ray Bechard. "We didn't give up. I thought we just batted."
After gaining the lead at 10-9, they never trailed again. Middle blocker Amanda Reva broke the Kansas block-assist record when she and Rohde blocked a Baylor attack, earning their 12th point.
Rohde's trademark fist-in-the-air celebration illustrated the team's determination, as they went on to win the fourth game 15-13.
For only the third time this season, the Jayhawks extended the match to a rally-scored fifth game.
With pride and a 500 season on the line, the Jayhawks fought back from 10-6. With every serve counting as a point, they had to sideout every time Baylor served. They did, and despite tying the game at 13, they fell short, losing 15-13.
Rohde said that coming that close was more frustrating than anything.
For seniors Rohde, Donovan and outside hitter Leslie Purkeypile, this season had its highlights, despite coming so close to a winning season.

"We are much more in control," said Coach Marian Washington, who won her 483rd and 484th games of her career this weekend. "They're doing a better job. It was definitely our best offensive performance so far."

He's baaack!
Senior forward T.J. Pugh made his season debut Friday night against UNLV in a 78-50 Kansas victory in the Tip-Off Classic in Springfield, Mass.
Pugh, who had been recovering from Oct. 27 ankle surgery, had two points and two rebounds in 15 minutes. He provided strong defense, something that has had Coach Roy Williams looking forward to his return all season.
Williams said that Pugh did the little things on defense that often go unnoticed by fans but that the coaches appreciated.
The day after the game, Pugh said that his ankle felt better than expected.
Injuries are nothing new to Pugh. He started 27 games for the Jayhawks last season but missed nine with a foot stress fracture. In high school, Pough broke four bones.
Pugh said he hoped the team would overcome its early season injuries and be healthy at the end of the season when it really counted.
The No. 8 Jayhawks faced a tough UNLV team that kept the game close during the first half. Brian Keefe made a three-pointer at the end of the half, cutting the Jayhawks lead to 36-34.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Nov. 30).
Once you get a problem resolved with your sweetheart, your children or both, you'll be ready to take on a new project. In December, you're creative, and you're discovering all sorts of new information. Continue your education through February. In March, you're lucky, especially concerning home and family. In April, go back to a previous way of doing things. Stick with your previous relationship, too. You need to work together. Take on a tough job in May, and see your reward and a little extra freedom by August or September. By October you and your friends will have new confidence.
Aries: Today is a 7.
You were running pretty wild during the weekend, but now you have financial considerations. That might be nothing more than having to work for a living. If you love your work, this is not a problem. Your enthusiasm shows and makes everything look easy.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
Someone in authority is standing between you and what you want to accomplish. You can't just push through this barrier. You'll have to do something inspired. The other person hopes you'll come up with inspiration to generate the idea that's lacking.
Gemini; Today is a 5.
Watch for surprises this morning, especially from someone you thought you knew well. This is like a game. You could have so much fun, you forget to do something important. Don't miss an appointment just because it's with somebody you'd not see.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
You may feel a little harassed but don't fuss. Conditions will ease considerably once you involve other people in your project. Some of your friends have been just waiting for you to ask. The chore coming up today is bigger than you can do by yourself.
You're enthusiastic, outgoing and maybe even a little too loud. That could cause a problem, if you're in a confined setting. Looks like communication is difficult for many people right now. You're not having as much trouble, but be careful anyway.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
There's some confusion at your house. Expect the unexpected. If it seems like a friend has done or said something you just can't figure out, give it some thought. Maybe you misunderstood.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
You've been feeling rambunctious lately, and that's good. Your spending tends to get a little rowdy when you're in this kind of mood, so make sure you stay within budget. You do have a budget, don't you? If you don't, that should be what you do tonight.
Sagittarius: Today is a 7.
If there's anything about your money you don't want everybody to know, make sure it's kept confidential. A rumor is likely to get out anyway, but this could work to your advantage. If you've been doing more than you should for the money you're making, speak up about it now.
G
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
You're entertaining, charming and good-natured, but make sure the paperwork gets done and you have the facts somebody else needs. It's up to you to provide this, so don't shirk your duty.
Whip your place into shape so you can entertain, possibly tonight. Conditions will be better for romance than they've been. If you'd rather spend the evening alone, conditions also are great for luxury. Treat yourself to something you always enjoy.
Aquarius: Today is a 5.
Continue to gather information this morning. You usually think things out so carefully, any little error can throw you into a tizzy. Don't be like that this morning because errors will be everywhere.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
Don't worry if it looks like you don't have enough money. You're improving your skills and that will lead to an increase in income. A problem this afternoon looms as a brick wall at first, but don't worry. Even brick walls can be climbed, and some have toeholds, if you know how to find them.

Chiefs end losing streak get win against Arizona
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The longest losing streak in Marty Schottenheimer's 15-year coaching career is finished.
Rich Gannon threw three touchdown passes, and the Kansas City Chiefs, still plagued by penalties and mistakes, held on for a 34-24 victory yesterday against the Arizona Cardinals, snapping their six-game losing streak.
弓
But the 6-6 Cardinals, who had moved into playoff contention by
winning three of their last four games, answered with an 80-yard drive aided by a pass interference call and made it 31-24 on Mario Bates' 1-yard plunge with 6:07 remaining.
GOAT
Not until Pete Stoyanovich kicked an 18-yard field goal for a 10-point lead with 1:57 left could the Arrowhead Stadium crowd, which had not witnessed a Kansas City victory since Oct. 4, breathe easy.
“This year has been a tremendous year for me,” said O’Meara, who will play two more non-PGA Tour events in South Africa and Australia before year’s end. “To win the Skins Game caps off so positively everything else that has happened to me this year.”
O'Meara's luck ran out when the Skins Game went to a playoff for the fifth consecutive year. He dropped out of contention for the largest skin ($270,000) with a bogey on the first playoff hole at Rancho La Quinta Country Club.
LA QUINTA, Calif. — If he could, Mark O'Meara would never let 1998 end.

鱼
O'Meara clinched his first Skins title on the 16th hole of regulation, knocking in a 3-foot birdie put worth two skins and $140,000. That pushed his two-day total to eight skins and $430,000 — bettering the $370,000 Fuzvz Zoeller won in 1986.
The Masters and British Open champion, who earned a career-high $1.78 million on the PGA Tour and won his first two majors, picked up a record $430,000 with a victory in the Skins Game yesterday.

the earliest "
It would take another three weeks of lockout limbo to match that month lull. So far, the sides in the NBA dispute have gone 10 days since their last full bargaining session, and that 9 1/2-hour meeting was the only one the sides had in November.
The owners and players are at odds about whether there will be preconditions for a resumption.
About 120 players participated in a conference call Saturday and were brought up to date on the stalemate, a union spokesman said.
With negotiations stalled and the players believing the owners are trying to test further their resolve, it appears that commissioner David Stern is following a lockout calendar similar to the one employed by NHL commissioner Gary Bettman during
the 1994-95 lockout, which wasn't settled until Jan. 13
The hockey lockout included a period from Dec. 6 to Jan. 7 in which no talks were held. The sides then made "final" offers and "final-final" offers before a marathon negotiating session settled it.

Murals paint vivid picture of Kansas history
Artists' work adds color to state capitol building

THE PUBLIC HALL OF THE GOVERNMENT
Although the murals at the capitol building in Topeka evoke emotions of pride and awe in some Kansans, they were in the past subjected to a barrage of criticisms and political debates.
The murals on the second floor rotunda, painted by John Steuart Curry, are some of the most controversial and scratinized images in the history of American art, said Eldon Harding, tour guide at the capitol.
"The critics were ignorant — some were stupid — and did not accept Curry for the artist he was. He was a realist while his critics wanted more fluff," he said.
Centered on the north wall of the rotunda is Curry's dramatic depiction of Kansas native John Brown, an activist in the anti-slavery movement. The mural, 31 feet by 11 1/2 feet, is one of the most famous Civil War era paintings and is often reproduced.
In the middle of the mural, with out-stretched arms and a flowing beard, Brown towers above opposing anti-slavery and pro-slavery forces. In one hand, Brown clutches a rifle and in the other he holds a Bible. At his feet, representing the fratricide that would envelop the nation, is a dead Confederate soldier lying beside a dead Union soldier. In the background, a tornado and a prairie fire also symbolize the coming of war.

"People were stupid enough not to see the symbolism in making Brown taller than the other people, which was to show his importance," said Harding.
On the east wall, an archway separates the images of a plains man and the Spanish explorer Coronado. On the other side of the
rotunda is a mural portraying a modern-day farm, a young farmer, his wife and their children. Also featured are fields of corn, grazing cattle and a Hereford bull.
Information in a pamphlet published by the state containing information on the capitol says that in 1976, the Kansas legislature created a murals committee that selected Lumen Martin Winter, an artist from Kansas, to finish the
commission left unfinished by Curry. Using Curry's sketches as a reference, Winter completed the murals, and they were dedicated in 1978. The murals examined eight topics ranging form Col. John C. Freemont speaking with Native Americans during his expedition west to Quantrill's raid on Lawrence. The theme of most of the murals is about the daily life of settlers in Kansas.
In 1951, David H. Overmyer, a native of Topeka, was commissioned to paint eight murals on the first-floor rotunda. Overmery's stylized paintings, rich in color, with bold lines, were completed in September of 1953.
In 1898, Jerome Fedeli, a fresco painter from Kansas City, was hired by the Populist Party, which controlled the State Executive Council, to paint murals on the inside panels of the capitol's dome. The resulting work was captured in a photograph that is on display in the rotunda, which shows partly nude Grecian women. In 1902, the Republicans gained control of the state and hired painters from a Chicago-based company, Crossman and Study, to repaint the panels for $7,600.
The murals range from a depiction of Lewis and Clark mapping out one of the many Kansas streams that flow into the Missouri River to the arrival of the railroad, which made settlement in Kansas a reality for many people.
The four resulting murals are allegorical. The paintings depict Knowledge, Plenty, Peace and Power. All of the murals have a woman sitting in the center who is flanked by a figure on both sides.
"I think that all the murals are interesting and show the vast history of Kansas, but none capture the feelings of the image of John Brown," said Joel Novack, a Topeka resident visiting the capitol building. "You can almost sense how fanatical he was through the painting. I think it's great that people can come and look at these paintings whenever they wish."
Attending Chiefs game can be an expensive experience
By Seth Hoffman Special to the Kansar
For most people, spending the afternoon at a Chiefs game is not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
Most games are sold out long before the day of the game and a majority are sold before the season even starts. As far as ticket prices, the Chiefs rank slightly below the NFL average, at about $42 apiece. For a day at the game, a family of four can expect to shell out $242 for parking, tickets and a few concessions.
While there scalpers who try to unload extra tickets, selling tickets for higher than
High ticket prices and the time commitment make planning important. In fact, because of the limited availability of tickets, it is unlikely that a person could show up on game day without a ticket and get in.
face value is illegal in Missouri. In Kansas, those who attend the game can attempt to find tickets at area ticket brokers, who legally can charge as much as they want for the tickets.
Roland Weibel, Topeka freshman, and Jason Shumaker, Grand Prairie, Texas, freshman, both attended the Nov. 16 Chiefs' game against the Denver Broncos.
"I thought they were pretty reasonable," said Shumaker.
"We saw worse seats on sale from (ticket brokers) for $149."
"We camped out at the Union at 3 a.m. during Hawk Week to get those tickets," Weibel said. "We paid $48 at SUA for tickets with a $40 face value. They were terrible seats."
Shumaker camped with Weibel.
For the privilege of parking in the Truman Sports Complex, where Arrowhead is
located, drivers must cough up $11 for each car.
"I thought stadium prices were really ridiculous," he said. "Eleven dollars for parking, and $3.75 for a 20-ounce Coke. I didn't buy anything once I got in the stadium."
Although Shumaker thought the price he paid for this ticket was reasonable, prices at the stadium took him by surprise.
At 4 p.m. for the Monday-night game, a line of cars was waiting to begin its tailgate festivities. There were Chiefs-detailed pickup trucks, specially crafted, tailgate-enhanced conversion vans and even an occasional cherry-red hearse, hauling the symbolic corpse of the Chiefs' potential next victim.
"We got to the stadium about an hour and a half before the game but didn't tailgate," Weibel said. "I guess we're not quite as hard-core as some."

Weary KU students venture out to Topeka's pub scene
Andrea Stewart Special to the Kansan
When looking for wildlife in Topeka, University of Kansas students don't have to visit the zoo — they can just hit the local bars.
The Mad Squirrel, Jeremiah Bullfrogs and The Dutch Goose are just a few of the city's hangouts frequented by KU students.
Cory Sunderman, who has worked at The Dutch Goose since its opening, said there was a noticeable difference between Topeka's nightlife and what existed in other cities.
"Lawrence is a college town," Sunderman said. "Topeka is the capitol. Kansas City is different because there are a lot more people, and there is a lot more culture."
Despite the popularity of the eastern cities, Topeka still attracts a variety of bar enthusiasts, Sunderman said. Between 3 and 9 p.m., bars cater to blue-collar workers just off work.
After 9 p.m., the bulk of the crowd includes local college students and some from Lawrence and Emporia.
Tyler Gill, Topeka senior, said he visits places such as Quincy Magoo's or the country dance club Remington's when he travels home for the holidays.
Mitch Bradbury, Topeka senior, sald he enjoys the informal nature of Topeka's bars.
"The cool thing is you don't have to feel like you have to dress up." Bradbury said. "You can just go have a beer."
Megan Walker, a former KU student who now is in the nursing program at Washburn University, said the two cities are not miles apart geographically they are miles apart in culture.
"It is not as much of a meat market as Lawrence," Walker said. "There is not the social atmosphere. It is mostly just groups of people hanging out with friends."
Walker said the age group at
"The cool thing is you don't have to feel like you have to dress up. You can just go have a beer."

Topeka senior
bars in Topeka ranges from 21 to 30.
The Dutch Goose, a sports bar known for its 20 televisions, has some competition around town. Sunderman described a T-shirt hanging just above the entrance that survived some of the not-so-friendly competition.
"Some people from (Jeremiah) Bullfrogs walked in and bought a T-shirt," Sunderman said. "They burned it and messed it up with catsup and mustard and then wrote 'Bullfrogs Rules' on it. When they returned it, we took it, washed it and framed it."

Westport bars offer variety, barrels of fun, cheap drinks
Atmosphere one attraction to patrons
By Melissa Russo Special to the Kansan
Students venturing out on the weekends seeking to spice up their night life have a variety of places to choose from in Westport.
Dancing, cheap drinks and no cover charges are just a few of the glimmicks used to draw the 21-and-older crowd to Kansas City.
America's Pub, 510 Westport Road, offers dancing and a live disc jockey on the weekends. Chris Peirson, manager, thinks this atmosphere is what attracts a voucher crowd.
"We try to keep the mood in the club light," he said. "Like it's a giant party."
Jessica Shelley, Overland Park senior. eniovs Kelly's.
Matt Weiner, pub bartender,
enjoys working the weekends
when there is a bigger crowd.
A wall full of lingerie can attest to the singles appeal of the bar.
“It's fun because it's something different to do, rather than staying in Lawrence and going to the same places,” she said.
Employee Michael Casey
"There is a lot of action on Saturday nights," he said. "It's a good bar."
Another way for patrons to receive free drinks is to participate in games on the dance floor. Games, such as musical chairs or ducks races, are played on the weekends.
"Women give us their lingerie when they run out of money so they can get free drinks," Weiner said. "Elizabeth, our only female bartender, won't take underwear from men or women."
For students who don't enjoy dancing, Kelly's Westport Inn, 500 Westport Road, offers a college sports bar atmosphere.
"Women give us their lingerie when they run out of money so they can get free drinks."
Matt Weiner America's Pub bartender
thinks that the bar's fame is what keeps the crowds coming.
"The history and tradition behind the bar is important," he said. "This is the oldest building and oldest bar in Kansas City."
At Mill Creek Brewery and Restaurant, 4050 Pennsylvania Street, drink specials are offered. On weekends, the brewery offers $1.50 beers after midnight and food specials. The bar also has dart boards, pool tables and foozball for people looking for fun and games.
Jerry Arnold, Mill Creek manager, said that the appeal of the bar mainly was its ambiance
and drink prices.
"The appeal to college students would be the casual atmosphere," he said. "We really have an eclectic group — meaning younger and older people — a real rounded-out crowd."
Stanford and Sons Restaurant, 504 Westport Road, offers a combination of a bar and restaurant on the lower level with a comedy club upstairs. Stanford's comedy club has performances throughout the week. The restaurant is open until 11p.m. After that, they have a live DJ playing music. This combination can offset the monotony of the bar scene.
GIGI Gallinger, Kearney, Mo,
senior, likes the variety.
"I went to Westport when I turned 21 to see what it was like," she said. "But I didn't really care for it. It just wasn't an overly comfortable atmosphere. But I enjoyed the comedy house because it was different than the bar part of it."

Kansas City earns saucy reputation for barbecue
By Julie Wood Special to the Kansan
Barbecue in the backyard may be a slice of Americana, but Kansas City has been long-regarded as a mecca for barbecue lovers.
"It is tradition to barbecue in one's backyard," said Gary Cooper, general manager of Gates Bar-B-Q at 3205 Main St. in Kansas City, Mo. "People do it from Idaho to Florida. But Kansas City is probably the most known for it."
Along with Memphis, Tenn., Kansas City is a top spot for some of the country's best barbecue. Arthur Bryant's 1727 Brooklyn St. in Kansas City, Mo., and in Station Casino, has been in business since the late '20s and Gates, with five
locations in the Kansas City area, has been open for 52 years. They are two of oldest barbecue restaurants in the city.
Kansas City's barbecue reputation began in the early '20s because of the stockyards, Cooper said.
Arthur Bryant's general manager, Eddie Echols, said people would come to the 18th and Vine district to listen to jazz and eat barbecue. Because there were so many barbecue restaurants in the area, the reputation stuck.
The style of barbecue differs across the country.
Barbecue from the South traditionally uses shredded meat and a sweet sauce. In Kansas City, slices of beef are grilled on an open pit
and a spicier sauce is added later, Cooper said.
Many University of Kansas students have grown up with Kansas City barbecue.
Out-of-state students quickly discovered the delicacy in their college years.
"When I was little, we would always go to a barbecue restaurant when we came to Kansas City," said Ashley Bowen, Augusta junior. "Now I take my friends there when they come to visit."
"I always take my family to Arthur Bryant's when they come to visit me," said Brooke Fezler, Danville, Calif., junior. "They always take home bottles of their barbecue sauce because they can't get it at home and I always have to bring home more barbecue sauce."

THE MUSEUM OF ART AND SCIENCE
By Timothy Johnson Special to the Kansan
For students who are looking for something slightly more cultured than their typical weekend activities, the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City offers many options.
The Nelson-Atkins Museum was founded and endowed by William Rockhill Nelson, who also established the Kansas City Star. Opened in 1933, the 232,000-square-foot museum is one of the largest museums in the country. The museum's collection has pieces that date from 3,000 B.C. to present day with about 30,000 pieces total.
The museum has a wide range of paintings, sculptures and artifacts from all cultures, with an emphasis on Asian art.
"I think their East Asian collection is phenomenal," said Josh Jordan. Emporia sophomore.
Through Jan. 3, 1999, the museum is featuring an exhibition of the paintings of John Steuart Curry titled "Inventing the Middle West." Curry, who
was commissioned to paint the murals in the Kansas Capitol in Topeka, was famous for his realistic portrayals of life in the Midwest. About 50 of Curry's paintings are on display. The exhibit is the largest show of his in nearly 50 years.
The exhibit on John Steuart Curry will be replaced by another temporary exhibit at the beginning of next year. In addition to temporary and permanent exhibits, the museum also features outdoor attractions.
"I really enjoy the outdoor sculpture garden and park," said David Bettenhause, Colombia, Mo..sonhomore.
To see what is on display, visit the museum Web site at www.nelson-atkins.org or call (816)751-1278.

New recruits from junior colleges to replace graduates
Allen optimistic about next season
By Jodi M. Smith
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas football coach Terry Allen has said it all year — this year's football team is better than last year's.
And even after finishing dead last in the Big 12 Conference with a 4-7 record, Allen is still saying it.
"I've said all along, and I truly feel this way; we are a better football team than we were a year ago." Allen said during his final press conference of the season. "I know our record does not reflect that, but I still feel that our program has improved from where it was the first year."
Close-game losses are what have led Allen to that conclusion.
-Oklahoma State, Texas A&M
Baylor and Iowa State — were all lost by the 'Hawks in the final quarter.
Four different games this season
"When you lose in the fourth quarter on a consistent basis, and
there's no one particular thing you can point to there, that tells me that it's the little things as far as the discipline within your football team, the timing of your football team, the values the commitment, how important it is to you." Allen said.
Allen: Will start searching for junior college transfers.
Recruiting is where Allen plans to begin refining the little things.
The Kansas football team has 22 or 23 scholarships to give for next season, and Allen wants to split
those between high school seniors and junior-college transfers.
Primarily, Allen is searching the junior colleges for a quarterback
With the status of Zac Wegner still in the air, Allen's main concern is finding a quarterback to add to the small arsenal of freshmen Jonas Weatherbie and Jake Letourneau and sophomore Jav Alexander.
"It's not hard to recruit a quarter back for the University of Kansas right now, I guarantee you that."
"It is not hard to recruit a quarterback for the University of Kansas right now, I guarantee you that," Allen said. "You look at what we'd like to do offensively, the receivers that we have within our program at this particular time and the lack of depth we've demonstrated at the quarterback position. We can get our foot in the door with some pretty good quarterbacks at the junior-college level, and I feel as if we've done that."
In addition to a quarterback, Allen said he also will be searching the junior-college ranks for at least one player for each for the offensive line, secondary and linebacker positions.

And filling the starting positions of graduating seniors will not be too difficult, considering many back-ups stepped into starting roles this season because of injuries.
Center Bob Schmidt and Alexander both received their shots at starting after the original starters suffered injuries.
Volunteers marching closer to title
All of this adds up to an optimistic view of next season, as far as Allen is concerned.
"I'm a glass half full, not empty,
guy," he said.
National title hopes hinge on Bowl Series rankings for top three unbeatens
The Associated Press
Tennessee moved one step closer to a shot at the national title.
Tee Martin threw for a touchdown and ran for another as the top-ranked Volunteers routed Vanderbilt 41-0 Saturday.
If Tennessee (11-0, 8-0 Southeastern Conference) beats Mississippi State in the SEC title game next weekend, the Vols will probably get to play for the national championship in the Fiesta Bowl.
The Vols are No. 1 in the Bowl Championship Series rankings, ahead of two other undefeated teams, UCLA and Kansas State. The top two teams in the BCS standings will meet in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 4.
"They're a well-deserving No. 1," Vanderbilt coach Woody Widenhofer said of the Vols. "In the four years that I've been here, this is the touchest team they've had."
UCLA and Kansas State each have a game left next Saturday. The Bruins play at No. 19 Miami, while Kansas State meets No. 6 Texas A&M for the Big 12 championship in St. Louis.
Tennessee intercepted four passes, recovered two fumbles and converted those turnovers into 24 points to beat Vanderbilt (2-9, 1-7) for the 16th straight time.
second possession of the third quarter. Adam Abrams kicked a 23-yard field goal 3:18 later to complete the scoring
The win was the third straight for USC (8-4)
"I don't think we did anything wrong out here today," said Tennessee receiver Peerless Price, who caught seven passes for 181 yards, including a 67-yard touchdown.
After struggling to score against Vandy the past three seasons, Tennessee finally got on track with 17 points in the second quarter for a 20-0 halftime lead.

USC 10, No. 9 Notre Dame 0
Los Angeles — Chad Morton rushed for 100 of his 128 yards in the second half, and the USC defense was at its best against the Irish. The game was scoreless until freshman quarterback Carson Palmer scored the first touchdown of his career on a 2-yard bootlegging, capping a 64-yard, five-play drive on UC'S
The win was ... against Notre Dame (9-2) after the Irish went 12-0-1 against the Trojans from 1983-95. It was the first time USC (8-4) has blanked Notre Dame since winning a 25-0 decision en route to the national championship in 1962.
Notre Dame, playing without injured quarterback Jarious Jackson, committed five turnovers, four on interceptions.
No.15 Michigan 48 Hawaii 17
Honolulu — Anthony Thomas ran for 104 yards and three scores in the first half, and Tom Brady threw two touchdown passes to Tai Streets — also in the opening 30 minutes — as Michigan routed Hawaii.
The Wolverines (9-3) kept their hopes of landing a good bowl berth intact, and extended the Rainbows' losing streak to 18 games, currently the longest in the nation. Hawaii's 0-12 record also matches college football's worst single-season mark, by Colorado State in 1981.
Thomas finished with 13 carries for 183 yards. Brady, replaced by freshman Drew Henson late in the first half, completed 9-0 of 10 passes for 142 yards. Streets had five catches for 90 yards.
No. 17 Georgia Tech 21, No. 12 Georgia 19

Blacksburg, Va. — Ahmad Hawkins caught a 47-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Brooks with 2:01 remaining to cap a big second-half comeback by Virginia.
The Cavaliers, who overcame a 29-7 halftime deficit, marched 93 yards in six plays for the winning score.
Virginia (9-2) is going to the Peach Bowl, while Virginia Tech (8-3) is still waiting for a bowl bid. Officials from the Music City and Gator bowls attended the game.

three touchdowns and threw for two as the Orangemen won the Big East title and earned a berth in the Bowl Championship Series.
Syracuse (8-3, 6-1), which will play in the Orange Bowl or Sugar Bowl, scored the most points against Miami (7-3, 5-2) since the Hurricanes lost to the Orangemen 56-16 in 1970. It was Miami's second-largest margin of defeat behind a 70-14 loss to Texas A&M in 1944.

State College, Pa. — Eric McCoo rushed for 206 yards, and David Macklin and Anthony King returned interceptions for touchdowns as Penn State strengthened its case for an eighth straight Jan.1 bowl.
McCoo also scored a touchdown and Travis Forney kicked a career-high five field goals for the Lions (8-3, 5-3 Big Ten), who have a chance to go to the Outback Bowl after finishing their home schedule unbeaten for the first time since 1994.
Michigan State (6-6, 4-4) didn't qualify for a bowl despite victories against Notre Dame and then No. 1 Ohio State.
