THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)
Influenza spreading at University
By Jennifer Roush Kansan staff writer
Flu season is striking again, and many KU students are beginning their battles with the achiness, fevers and sniffles that come along with the common illness.
Randall W. Rock, Watkins chief of staff, said that he had seen several students in the past week who had been diagnosed with influenza.
The flu season in the United States generally lasts from November until March.
"Kansas was pretty much spared in November and December," he said.
Rock said it was important for people in high-risk groups, such as people with asthma or other chronic respiratory problems, to get immunized against influenza.
"The flu shot is effective against a number of strains." Rock said. "However, the shot is modified each year to combat the strains that we anticipate will be the most problematic."
Rock said he did not know what type of influenza virus had been the most prevalent. The Kansas Department of Health and Environment had confirmed a number of cases of Influenza A in other parts of the state, he said.
Rock also said that a flu shot no longer would be practical for most students. Generally, only people who have not yet been exposed to the virus need to be vaccinated.
Although some prescription medications are available. Rock said rest and extra flu
"For those who haven't been exposed yet, we have 90 or so doses left of the flu shot," Rock said. "But keep in mind that it takes about 2 weeks to be effective, so it really won't be worth it for a lot of people."
He said that the best time to get the flu shot was in November or December, before the virus had a chance to become widespread.
INFLUENZA
■ The presence of influenza has been confirmed on campus.
- Symptoms of the flu include headache, fever, chills, cough and body aches. They usually appear one to three days after infection.
"The flui isn't really much of a problem for young, healthy people," he said. "Generally, 20 to 30 percent of people who get
ids were the necessary remedies for most students.
- To keep from becoming infected, avoid contact with infected animals and surfaces.
- To keep from becoming ill,
secrets of infected people, cover your mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing and keep your hands clean.
If you are feverish or coughing uncontrollably, stay home. Get plenty of rest and extra fluids.
WHERE THE WORLD MEETS
the flu will develop a secondary infection. This is why people with asthma should really keep it under control."
Students tackle Super Bowl partying

The Super Bowl is more than a football game.
It means nachos. It means Shasta. It means talking frogs. It means parties.
At Battendfield Scholarship Hall, about 25 people gathered around the television in the living room and watched Denver defeat Atlanta 34-19 yesterday in Super Bowl XXXIII in Miami.
Nate Stange, Wichita soph more and social chair for
SUPERBOWL XXXIII

"Someone just said, 'Hey, this has really high ratings,' and so people started putting their best
Birge, who said he enjoyed watching fan conflicts, thought the commercials took away from the game.
"It's a result of commercialism." Stange said.

Justin Birge, Omaha, Neb. sophomore, explained the commercial phenomenon surrounding the Super Bowl.
"After every two plays, there's a commercial," he said. "I'm getting sick and tired of seeing those damn frogs."
Stange said that the Super Bowl was a good excuse to eat a lot of snacks and that it was popular because of the advertisements that appeared during the game.
marketing instructor to watch the commercials and said she thought the Budweiser frog commercial was a highlight.
McNeil helped organize a Super Bowl party for students living in Pearson and Sellard scholarship halls.
Preparation wasn't too complicated, she said.
"We just went to Checkers and started throwing things into the cart." McNeil said.
During the Super Bowl, Alex Barnett, Chicago freshman, spent time in a Hashinger Hall room listening to the music of Steely Dan, the Grateful Dead and Frank Zappa with some friends — except during the commercials.
"We turned down the music so we could hear the commercials," he said. "It's a big part of our culture. All of our new products are introduced. It shows our culture is highly focused on entertainment."
Back at Battenfeld, Eric Overstreet, Maize sophomore, thought the game was a little disappointing.
"It was kind of boring as far as action and content were concerned," he said.
But Overstreet was comforted by the Denver victory
"I hate the Falcons," he said. "They beat my 49ers. This is kind of revenge."
Aaron Akins, Olathe junior, also let revenge guide in his selecting a team to root for.
"I wanted Atlanta to win," he said. "I wanted Dan Reeves to win for the revenge factor. He
was fired because of a quarterback and was replaced by an assistant coach that he made. That had to be tough."

Groups hold vigil to protest violence in Iraq

IMPEACH
U.S. POLICY
TOWARD
IRAQ
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
A line of 32 people stood in the drizzle yesterday afternoon in front of the Douglas County Courthouse at 11th and Massachusetts streets to protest the U.S. policy toward Iraq.
At the center of the line, Pannirselvam Kangaratnam, Malaysia graduate student, held a flag pole that bore Kansas and U.S. flags over the sidewalk.
Allan Hanson, professor of anthropology, coordinator of the Lawrence Coalition for Peace and Justice, and one the organizers of the anti-violence vigil, said they would continue to hold vigils as long as the situation in Iraq remained the same.
"It's fair enough to say that everybody's frustrated with the situation in Iraq, which is causing a great deal of death and destruction for the Iraqi people," he said. "We want to do this. We want to do this not once, but every Sunday."
"It represents freedom," Kanagaratnam said, referring to the U.S. flag. "And we want freedom for the Iraq people. We want food for them."
Other people in the line held up signs that read,
"Destroy Power, Not People," "Food not Bombs," and "Peace Is Better than A Place In History."
The Iraqi vigil was sponsored by Ecumenical Christian Ministries, Peace Mennonite Church, Oread Friends and the the Lawrence Coalition for Peace and Justice.
Hanson said he would like to see the United States stop what he thought was an ineffective foreign policy toward Iraq.
The United States should find a policy that would gain more international support, he said.
Wichita junior
"I put myself in the Iraqis'shoes.I feel suffering.I don't want that to happen to me."
"I think that the U.S. and its British lieutenant really stand alone in its policy," said Ian Lowe, Phoenix, Ariz., junior, who held a sign in front of his chest.
Lowe said that not only did the current policy hurt people, it strengthened Saddam's grip on the state.
Tom Broderick, Wichita junior, stood next to Lowe in the line.
"I think that a lot of the attention is on the no-fly zone and on Saddam and his violations," he said. "I think we should remember that there are a lot of innocent citizens, too. We want to draw attention to the plight of ordinary Iraqis."
Broderick said that although the sanctions against Iraq were designed to punish Hussein, they also prevented supplies, such as medical aid, from reaching the Iraqi people.
"We should think about the impact of our foreign policy." Broderick said.
Kanagaratnam said he came to the vigil for just that reason.
"I put myself in the Iraqi's shoes," he said. "I feel suffering. I don't want that to happen to me."
The vigils will continue at 12:30 p.m. Sundays at 11th and Massachusetts streets in front of the Douglas County Courthouse.
Studying diversity may soon be required
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
A proposal to add a diversity requirement for students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will be voted on in tomorrow's College Assembly meeting.
The diversity requirement would make a class emphasizing issues of diversity in the United States mandatory for students seeking bachelor's degrees from the college.
These classes would include elements of race, ethnicity, gender, religion, sexual orientation, class. ability or age.
"It would be additional required hours only in the sense that it would be fewer elective hours." Mason said.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the college supports the requirement, which she said would not necessarily mean extra hours required for graduation from the University of Kansas.
The College Assembly is the governing body of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and is composed of more than 100 faculty and student members.
The proposal has since been sent back to a committee to be revised.
The diversity requirement was introduced last spring by the Ad Hoc Committee for the U.S. Diversity Requirement
Kathryn Conrad, assistant professor of English and member of the ad hoc committee, said that the vote most likely would go to a mail ballot tomorrow, where ballots are mailed to all members of the College Assembly.
The meeting will be at 4 p.m. tomorrow at the Big 12 room in the Kansas Union.
Elizabeth Schultz, professor of English, said that she thought a diversity requirement would benefit students.
"I think it's very important because I think it's an American issue," she said.
Schultz said that W.E.B.Dubois, African American philosopher and writer, had said that the problem of the 20th century would be the problem between different races.
"I believe that it will be the problem of the 21st century." Schultz said.
Schultz said that the University did well with global issues but that it needed to address local diversity issues.
"It's wonderful to have a non-Western requirement," Schultz said. "But in the meantime, we're living in this country and in this century. A diversity requirement would be a good idea."
Colin Welsh, Salina senior, said he would support the requirement without a doubt.
"I guess self-segregation seems to need something done to combat it." Welsh said.
Welsh said that it surprised him when his younger brother and his friends had come to visit and had used various racial epithets.
"They need a diversity requirement in grade school," he said.
Phil Kelly, Chicago junior, was less enthusiastic.
"I think it would be a good thing for a lot of people," Kelly said. "But I don't think it should be required to graduate."

Hallway holes expose women to prying eyes
Women living in an apartment building in the 2300 block of Murphy Drive may have been victims of a peeper.
A KU student notified police at 1 a.m. Tuesday when she discovered small holes between a maintenance hallway and her apartment, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The holes made it possible to see into women's bedrooms and bathrooms from the hallway, Wheeler said.
The maintenance hallway entrance usually was locked. Police will question people who had access to it, Wheeler said.

A KU student was charged with operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol and leaving the scene of an accident that occurred 2 a.m. Friday at the intersection of 19th and Massachusetts streets, Lawrence police said.
After colliding with a Pizza Shuttle employee's car, the student left the scene of the accident after the employee said he would call the police. The Pizza Shuttle employee was able to get the student's license plate number as he was fleeing the scene, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police found the student at his residence in the 1700 block of West 25th Street. Police field sobriety tests revealed that the student was intoxicated. The student was arrested and taken to the Law Enforcement Center. His bond was set at $600.

Endangered species moved to refuge center
SALINA — Sergei is aloof; Rima likes to follow you around. Deva is just the kind of sloth you can chat with.
These three are the latest additions to the Rolling Hills Refuge Wildlife Conservation Center. All three are endangered species.
Sergei and Rima are Amur leopards; Deva's a sloth bear.
The Amur leopards are among the most endangered cats in the world, with only about 50 remaining in the wild and 200 in zoos and parks, said Kathy Tolber, assistant director of the refuge center.
Sergei is an 8-year-old male, and Rima is a 2-year-old female transferred from the Pittsburgh Zoo to Salina.
The animals are kept in separate but adjoining cages so they can get used to scents, movements and eye contact without having a chance to attack.
"Now they lie near each other; she looks for him, and he looks for her," said J Copas, keeper of big cats and bears. "They're still getting to know each other."
The leopards are named for their native range, which covers a portion of China. Korea and near the Amur river in Russia.
The Salina refuge is a member of the American Zoo and Aquarium Association's Species Survival Plans. The association owns the animals and moves them around the country as it determines the best breeding matches

The prosecution team thinks Lewinsky will have a lot of information if the right questions are asked today, said one House official, speaking on condition of anonymity.
ken former federal prosecutor and small-town lawyer, was assigned to question Lewinsky. He must use the former intern's interpretation of events skillfully to overcome a statement she made that said she was never asked to lie and that she was never promised a job for her silence.

Lewinsky's closed deposition will be the first of three approved by senators in Clinton's impeachment trial, which is in recess until Thursday. Questioning of presidential friend Vernon Jordan is scheduled for tomorrow. White House aide Sidney Blumenthal is scheduled for Wednesday.
Orioles coach, officials meet about Cuba game
WASHINGTON — Top U.S. officials have heard from Baltimore Orioles owner Peter Angelos that he is interested in breaking an impasse with Cuba because of the proposed distribution of profits from tentative exhibition games between the Orioles and a Cuban national team.
Angelos declined comment after the 45-minute White House meeting Friday night with National Security Adviser Sandy Berger and State Department Counselor Wendy Sherman.

David Leavy, White House representative, only would say the meeting was another step forward in the Clinton administration's efforts to expand people-to-people contacts between the United States and Cuba.

The State Department on Jan. 4 first broached the idea of an exhibition game involving the Orioles and a Cuban team. The administration
wants any proceeds from the games to be used to help the people of Cuba. Cuban officials say any profits should be earmarked to support Cuban doctors doing hurricane relief work in Central America.
Angelos returned from Havana last week without an agreement. The original plan called for the Orioles to play in Havana in late March. The Cuban team would then travel to Baltimore for a return game shortly thereafter.
Angeles reportedly wants to know how much flexibility the administration would be willing to give the Orioles in future discussions with the Cubans.

Virus plagues campus, ails student body
Continued from page 1A
The influenza outbreak seems to be confined to the University community.
"Lawrence has been very blessed this year," said Brian Hunt, Lawrence Memorial Hospital emergency-room physician. "So far, we're not seeing much right now. Any time you get people together in a classroom setting — this goes for daycare too — you'll see easier spread of viruses. It's a closed system."
Rock said that the best way to avoid the flu — and to avoid spreading it — was to avoid the secretions of infected people. He also said that conscientious hand washing was helpful.
Individuals with fevers are more likely to be contagious. Rock said. People who are feverish or coughing uncontrollably should stay home to avoid spreading the virus.
Most of the students in the Watkins waiting room yesterday were complaining of flu-like symptoms. Many of them had been sick for more than two days.
"I've been sick since Tuesday," said Becky Stauffer, Topeka sophomore.
One student said that his sickness had come and gone for several weeks.
James Neighbor, Shawnee junior, said, "It didn't get serious until yesterday."
Bill Walsh, Denver senior, spent part of yesterday waiting for a physician with his wife and young daughter, who also was sniffing.
"I've been sick since about Thursday." Walsh said.
"We've been waiting here for about an hour and a half. I'd be home watching the Super Bowl if I wasn't here."

Two members keep sorority chapter alive
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
Two KU students will do all the planning, calling and networking of an entire organization until Sigma Gamma Rho sorority increases its membership.
Shyra McGee, Wichita junior, and Aketia Thompson, Salina junior, are now the only KU chapter members of the national sorority.
Sigma Gamma Rho officially was reactivated Nov. 13, 1998.
"It is hard with just the two of us, but we are finding it a pleasant challenge." McGee said.
McGee and Thompson worked with chapters from Kansas State University and a Kansas City graduate chapter to bring back the KU chapter.
McGee said that it was not hard to reactivate the KU chapter, which is part of the National Pan-Hellenic Council. She said that the two received help from national and local levels.
Before November, the last time new members joined the group was in 1989. McGee said the sorority became inactive in 1992 when all of its the members graduated.
"Other than some paperwork, we just had to start showing up to meetings and say, 'Hello, we're here,' she said.
McGee said that it was important for new members to become involved with the group so it could survive.
"We are encouraging new members to join because we don't want to the chapter to go with us when we graduate." McGee said.
Adrian Franks, National Pan-Hellenic Council president and Manchester, Mo., senior, said the reactivation of this chapter was beneficial to KU students because it gave them
a wider selection of sororities.
Before Sigma Gamma Rho's reactivation, Franks said that there were only four National Pan-Hellenic Council sororities represented at the University.
McGee said that she wanted to bring back the KU chapter because of the value the national sorority placed on community service and its commitment to the chapter's motto, "greater service, greater progress."
For a chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho to remain active it must participate in two community service activities each month. McGee said.
"Students are interested in affecting their communities positively," she said. "Sigma Gamma Rho enables that."
Franks said that because there were only two members in the group, Sigma Gamma Rho members had to work harder than other National Pan-Hellenic Council organizations.
"They've done a great job getting their name out there," Franks said. "They've had to incorporate themselves with other organizations for their projects."
McGee and Thompson have planned Sigma Gamma Rho activities throughout the semester.
McGee said that they had planned for a February Black Student Social in conjunction with Black History Month and a women's leadership conference on March 18.
Sigma Gamma Rho will have an informational meeting tomorrow at 6:30 pm at Alcove A in the Kansas Union.
McGee said that the minimum requirements to join Sigma Gamma Rho included having completed 12 hours at the University of Kansas, maintaining a 2.5 grade point average and having completed community service within the last year.
E-mail accounts vulnerable to password-stealing program
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
University of Kansas students and faculty who have e-mail accounts may be vulnerable to an electronic attack.
"There are tons of programs like that out there," he said.
The NetBus program that is available on the Internet usually is slipped into games, Waxman said.
A program called NetBus has the capability to remotely control a computer and then steal passwords from people who use that computer to check their e-mail.
Craig Paul, systems support programmer for Academic Computing Services, said that ACS was aware of NetBus and programs like it.
Mickey Waxman, statistics consultant and programmer for ACS, said that NetBus was not available commercially, but programs like it were.
Programs similar to NetBus, such as PC Anywhere and Carbon Copy, are used in the professional world for remote administration and telephone technical support.
Waxman said that students who got software of any kind from online sources should be very careful.
Paul said the best way for students to protect themselves from programs like NetBus was to practice safe computing.
"Only download trustworthy software," he said. "And don't execute programs that people e-mail to you, unless you really trust that person a lot."
Paul said that anyone who thought his or her computer might have been infected with the NetBus program should contact Academic Computing
NETBUS FACTS
NetBus is not commercially available, although it can be downloaded from the Internet
- Programs similar to NetBus, such as PC Anywhere and Carbon
Copy, are available in stores. It is not illegal to own BitTorrent
It is not illegal to own Netbus or similar programs, but it is illegal to use the programs to "hack"
NetBus and similar programs can be detected with commercially available anti virus programs — make sure you have the latest version
- Hackers put NetBus into games,
"Whack-a-Mole" has been targeted heavily.
Don't download or execute any
Services and request anti-virus soft ware.
Don't download or execute a program from a person or site you don't trust personally.
Waxman said that the University had copyrighted anti-virus software for students who requested it. It is called Command Anti-Virus Software.
"It's the eternal chase," Paul said. "A hacker writes a program that's undetectable, and then it gets onto a computer where somebody finds it. Then administrators can alter their anti-virus programs to find the program."
He said that regardless of claims that NetBus and similar programs were undetectable, network administrators eventually would catch up with hackers.
Paul said that NetBus only could operate on computers with Intel chips that run Windows 95, 98 or NT.

High fines for underage drinkers ignores problem of drunk driving
The City Commission's decision last week to raise the fine for minors in possession alcohol from $200 to a minimum of $300 or a maximum of $500 may deter some underage drinkers, but it will not stop those older than 21 from driving after drinking at the bars.
The Alcohol Task Force, the City Commission and the Lawrence Police department should use the additional money to develop a program that would keep intoxicated drivers from getting behind the wheel.
Most students, regardless of their age, do not worry about expensive fines when they go to a bar or visit a party. They think about having fun. Then they drive, endangering themselves and others. The police should place sobriety check-points throughout the
Diverting some of the new money to prevention programs may make a difference.
city to keep people from driving drunk. Mayor Marty Kennedy said the task force was trying to educate tavern and bar owners and bartenders about ways to curtail alcohol-service to patrons. Kennedy said the extra fine money would go toward a general municipal court fund and that the commission had not considered contributing the extra money to drinking and driving prevention programs.
In the six weeks before the increased penalty for minors in possession will be
effected, the city should develop a pan that would address the prevention of binge drinking. An expensive fine alone will stop only a few. Increased sobriety check-points would stop many.
Provost David Shulenberger said that 50 percent of those who responded to the Northern Illinois survey distributed to KU students last fall admitted to driving drunk. Programs can work to decrease those figures, but it ultimately comes down to the individual's choice.
Students concerned with the allocation of the additional fine money should contact the police department and the City Commission. Instead of directing the money to a general pool, it should be used to prevent drunk drivers from endangering others.

Tenants, landlords must cooperate
In recent months, there has been an unusual number of incidents where students were forced to leave their homes.
Two students and another resident at 805 Ohio St. had to vacate their residence last semester because the landlord rented the space without the proper permit from the city.
The City of Lawrence condemned a house at 1247 Kentucky St. in August, which forced six students to leave their home. The tenants reported raw sewage in the basement.
A carbon monoxide leak last month at the Park 25 apartments, 2401 W. 25th St., sent two students to the emergency room. A furnace leak was responsible.
Instances such as these are a lesson to tenants and owners alike. Students
Students need to exert caution when signing a lease to avoid potential hardships.
renting houses or apartments need to be more selective consumers, and landlords need to clean up their act.
Before signing a lease, potential tenants should thoroughly examine the property and anticipate any potential problems that might arise. However, landlords need to take responsibility to meet city health and housing codes. This greater responsibility is in their best interest and would displace the tenants who might be displaced otherwise.
Landlord Jim Edwards is suing the students for more than $10,000 in lost rent and damages resulting from breaking the lease agreement.
out and didn't come back.
When the Kentucky residents' home was condemned, the students moved
Although it is understandable that the students would be leery of moving back into the house, they signed a contract with Edwards. It is their responsibility to honor that agreement so long as the landlord holds up his end of the deal.
Tenants need to begin looking more carefully at what they're getting into when they rent, and landlords need to take greater responsibility for their property. Until that happens, students are going to be temporarily living out of their suitcases.

Fast-paced life leaves best intentions behind
Perspective
For one reason or another, my instructors all have been bold enough to make the assumption that their class is the only one
I'm taking. This unfortunate occurrence has led me to carefully examine my schedule to budget my time more effectively.
It seems to have happened again.
Taking into account my present course load, along with the various assignments related to school and the number of work hours needed to warrant a paycheck large enough to handle such simple needs as rent and food, I have come to the conclusion that this will be a very suc-
custum semester if I just stop sleeping.
Of course, I enjoy sleeping very much. So, it appears this budget of mine will need a little revising.
cessful semester if I just stop sleeping.
First, let's take a look at study time. According to one of those "academic success" seminars forced upon me as a freshman, I should spend at least two hours outside of class studying for every hour I spend in class.
Yeah, right.
OK, we're not here to mock these counselors' good intentions. Let's just see if we can compromise the suggestions a bit.
For example, I believe in balance. So, let's say I only study for an hour for every hour I'm in class. Actually, I think I should only consciously spend time studying outside of class in relation to the time I'm conscious in class.
1
Of course, another way to compensate for lost time is to combine activities. For example, most of this column has been written in lieu of taking notes about the many exploits of Walt Whitman.
Yeah, that seems fair
In fact, I've found that most class time can be used for dual purposes. Along with learning, one can balance his checkbook, catch up on assignments for other classes or even chew a stick of gum.
A warm and hearty breakfast can be replaced with dry cereal and milk. Ten more minutes. Because the biggest sweat I'll break all day will be just getting out of bed, a shower can be easily skipped. Five more minutes.
Naturally, I'm going to miss a few classes due to unforeseen circumstances — illness, travel, outdoor temperatures above 70 degrees — so already there more class time that doesn't need to be matched by study time. Next, let's see if anything can be done about work.
Unfortunately, my current station in life allows me little more status than that of a wage-earner at a local mass-market retail store. Along with this, my employer doesn't seem apt to pay me when I don't show up, and I haven't been able to convince my landlord
Things don't get really bad until I start telling myself, "I'll just chew some gum."
These are just suggestions, of course. Perhaps the simplest way to free time in a hectic college schedule is to lower your standards. If graduation is all you're after, then let's be honest, not much more than showing up is really required.
Once my quiet slumber is interrupted by the tender strains of rock radio, my mind immediately begins looking for ways to shorten my morning ritual, adding to the time spent in bed. My personal philosophy is that any minute spent in bed is a minute not wasted dealing with the cold realities of life. Who needs that?
that sincere love and devoted affection are just as good as money.
So, it appears the work hours will have to remain in the budget as they are.
I'm sure some instructors will disagree with me, let's just hope they don't teach any of my classes. Should any of my current professors read this column, I would like to remind them that the true charm of a college environment is the leniency and understanding of its educators.
Now, it is time to begin trimming from some more specific areas of the budget. Although am not normally a detail-oriented person, I find that I can focus quite well on certain aspects of my life early in the morning.
I mean, you didn't actually expect me to read that whole book, did you?

Afternoon fight reveals students' impure hearts
---
D did you see the frozen dog? On Tuesday afternoon dozens of students were late to their classes, captivated by a coning.

Bearing an uncanny resemblance to a lawn ornament, a Cocker Spaniel perched in front of Marvin Hall, his eyes glued to a crazed squirrel. While the squirrel collected nuts and licked itself, the dog took excruciatingly calculated steps forward. It was a sensual death match — a carnivorous Congo, danced in slow motion.

As I walked toward Wescoe Beach, the crowd erupted with hoots, hollers and scattered applause. I've never heard KU students so happy. The monotony of the school day was broken. Bravo. A few lucky gamblers won their bets. Hurrah. Hurrah. Another predator slaughtered his victim in the middle of the afternoon. Clap, Clap, Clap. Everyone loves a good cockfight. It's human nature. I remember back in elementary school when the smallest recess scuffles became elaborate production numbers. Scores of children would run from the merry-go-round chanting, "Fight! Fight! Fight!" Eventually, a flustered teacher would blow her whistle, ending the duel and catapulting the kid with the least blood to
The sight of the Spaniel's flared nostrils was enough foreshadowing for me. The squirrel was going to get whooped.
"That squirrel's gonna get whooped!" a bystander said. The stakes began to rise, as time was skipping by and the deadlock lingering. This was no longer a dumb Disney cartoon where Pluto is belittled by Chip n' Dale. These were living, breathing beasts—a far cry from anonymous animatrons serving as sidewalk entertainment.

Therefore, I plead with you. The next time you encounter inequality, level the playing field. Help a squirrel eat a dog. Help a dwarf smother Eric Chenowith. Help America restore it's dignity.

infamy. The popular students won by fiat.
With grade school in the past, we find many other ways to quench our thirst for blood. You turn on Monday Night Football, and what do you see? Jockfights. You flip to a Fox reality special, and what do you see? Copfights. You turn to CNN and what do you see? Political fights. Although Bill Clinton and Kenneth Starr's only weapons are words, they still manage to peck themselves to death.
The dead squirrel doesn't bother me, but its manner of dying does. It didn't stand a chance, and everyone knew it. No one expected the squirrel to eat the dog. Is it our nature to cheer the predator and let the underdog (or in this case, undersquirrel) perish? (What would you do if you walked by the lawn of Allen Field House and saw Eric Chenowith smothering a dwarf? Would you show your team spirit? An informal poll reveals that 8 out of 10 KU students would cheer for our 7-feet tower of terror. Nothing against dwarfs — we just love Jayhawk hoops.
Now, before you accuse me of putting myself on a pedestal, let me make a confession: I cheered for the frozen dog. Just like you, I stayed to witness the bitter end. I was the one jumping up and down as the squirrel's head was ripped off, leaving its body buried in a pile of fertilizer. I was the one shouting, "That's my dog! Way to go, Butchie!" as I tossed doggy treats in the air. Yes, I played the fool, and now I will pay the price. My actions will hound me for a very long time.

When it comes to recruiting guest speakers for KU design students, Hallmark cares enough to send the very best.
By Katie Hollar
Design students are required to take four semesters of the symposium.
Since 1983, the greeting card company has partially financed the Hallmark Symposium. The symposium, which is offered each semester, features seven lectures by designers, illustrators, photographers and other professional artists.
"They'll have an opportunity to see how 28 design professionals interact with the marketplace," said Joe Zeller, professor of design and department chairman.
The lecture series starts today with a presentation by illustrator Chris Lensch.
Lectures bring design pros to KU
The symposium will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. every other Monday throughout the semester at the Spencer Museum of Art auditorium. Lectures are free and open to the public.
Hallmark recruits the lecturers and pays half the cost. The remaining costs are paid with various University funds.
The symposium was established by Thomas B. Allen and Lois Greene, professor of design. A committee of design faculty members selects the sneakers.
Zeller said that the three initiatives of the Hallmark Symposium were to inform and enrich the student experience, to allow students to make contact with a wide range of professionals and to increase the visibility of KU design programs.
Design faculty choose designers from corporate settings, independent houses, international companies and one-person operations. They strive to include a variety of styles.
"We try to go across the spectrum from very traditional to very avant garde," Zeller said.
The Hallmark Symposium has attracted many of the contemporary design stars. The series has had artists from firms such as Martha Stewart Living, CBS, Urban Outfitters and Rolling Stone and Playboy magazines.
In addition, every year the faculty invites one or two recent graduates to speak.
"When you get some fireball who was a KU student a few years ago, it contributes to making the career opportunities for students real," Zeller said.
"These are not little people," Zeller said. "These are the biggest names in the industry."
By presenting design students with real success stories, Hallmark Symposium dispels many of the "starving artist" myths.
Matt Wegeren, Wichita junior, said, "I get to see where I should be in the next five to 10 years."
Zeller said he viewed the Hallmark Symposium as an integral part of the design program.
"It puts the face of reality on being a designer," he said. "They get their first opportunity to identify with the community they're about to enter."
This semester's speakers include Lensch; Maria Grillo, graphic designer; Michael Tolson, founder and CEO of Thinking Skin; Rick Cusick, calligrapher; Clair Van Vlet, book artist; Laurie DeMartino, Studio D designer; and Gary Kelley, illustrator.
Classified Senate seeks salary reform

About a dozen members of the KU Classified Senate went to the Capitol in Topeka Wednesday to push for salary and hiring reforms in state policies.

He said many state employees, about 106 on campus, had worked their way to the top of the pay scale. The only pay raises available to them were the annual cost-of-living adjustments.
He said these adjustments had no kept pace with the cost-of-living increases in recent years.
The Senate took an annual trip to Topeka to present its concerns to legislators.
Auchard said the annual increase of 0 to 1.5 percent had made it difficult to hire people.
Jerome Hanson, Classified Senate president, said that this year the group had three goals it would like legislators to address: increasing the cost-of-living adjustments in salary, instituting a new formula for computing overtime salaries and reversing the current policy of hiring three employees for every
Another pay issue the group in Topeka lobbied for was reversing a 1994 state law that no longer counted holidays as overtime pay, Auchard said.
The group also wanted to reverse a 1993 state law that mandated only three new state employees could be

hired for every four that retired,
Hanson said.
"These things, of course, are going to affect everyone," he said. "If we can't get enough personnel to do the work here, then that, in turn, affects professors and students."
Benito Berardo, classified senator, said the group was meeting with legislators individually to discuss its three proposals.
Hanson said he was fairly optimistic that the legislature would pursue some of the Classified Senate's goals.
A bill dealing with overtime pay already has been introduced in the Kansas House of Representatives, and he said bills that dealt with cost of living adjustments and reversing the hiring policy would be introduced in the legislative session.

International students and faculty members share their stories of culture shock
THE LABELLING OF CHILDREN'S WORKS

"You could get anything, even milk and soup. I felt as if somebody was in there, tossing food at people."
Martina
Masaquiza
Educador graduate
student
By Irina Rodriguez Special to the Kansan
M artina Masaquiza recalls being frightened when she saw a stairway moving in front of her in an
airport on her first trip from her indigenous village in Ecuador to the United States.
"It took me five minutes to put my foot on it, and there was a line of people waiting there behind me," she says.
Other sights shocked her, including vending machines, which seemed to throw food through holes.
"It was strange," she says. "You could get anything, even milk and soup. I felt as if somebody was in there, tossing food at people."
Masaquiza, who teaches her native Quichua language at the University of Kansas, is one of many international students and faculty here who have had to adjust to the challenges of a culture that is different from their own.
The University has 1,410 students from 106 countries, in addition to international faculty and members of their families. Each has experienced different levels of what is commonly known as culture shock.
Culture shock is commonly defined as confusion and anxiety that can affect an individual suddenly exposed to an alien culture. Joe Potts, director of International Student Services, defined the three stages international students go through. The first is the "honeymoon period," when students are excited to be in a new country. Next comes the "down stage," the opposite end of the spectrum, when the student has difficulty adjusting to the new culture. Finally, students go through "the balanced state," when the student becomes acclimated.
Being away from home is hard enough for Anjum Aziz, Bangladesh graduate student. Last year it was the first time that she spent the Bangladesh holiday,Lailatulbarat, without her family. During Lailatulbarat, Allah decides the fate of the Bangladeshi people for the next year. In traditional celebration, they put lighted candles up around the house and pray throughout the night.
"But I had a final the next day," Aziz says, "And I had to do the shortest version of the prayer."
However, part of her still resists the cultural change, she says. Her commitment to the traditional costume — bright red and black woolen shawl and a black woven skirt, a string of colorful beads on her neck and similar beads in her ears — seem to confirm her words.
Masaquiza, who has been here for 14 years, arrived at the balanced state long ago. She is married to a man from the United States, has children, speaks good English and has learned to drive, which is uncommon in her village.
"Driving is like pulling a donkey," she says, trying to explain the process to her mother back home.
Aziz is still having trouble getting used to a society that focuses so much on sex and relationships. She has to balance her cultural and religious beliefs with the demands of an American university. Aziz is Muslim, and many topics discussed in classrooms here are never discussed among students and teachers, or even among friends in her culture.
"Dissecting people's personal lives piece by piece in the media is too much for me." Aziz says.
As with many international stu
dents, Aziz faces a double challenge. She has to overcome cultural and language barriers to compete with American students.
"I can't listen and formulate questions at the same time," she says. "I need to concentrate, to think about it and then I can ask questions later."
In Bangladesh, as in many other cultures, students are not required to participate in class actively, and the relationship between students and teachers is more formal. Mauricio Navia, Bolivia, graduate student, says that in Bolivia the teaching style is more authoritative and rigid, but the class period also is longer, allowing more time for interaction during the class. Their universities have a set curriculum so students don't have a choice of what classes they can take.
"The University here is like a model of a market," he says. "You can choose classes and you receive credits for them. It gives you a freedom of choice, but it also involves a big individual responsibility."
Margaret Coffey, counseling coordinator for cross-cultural advising at the Applied English Center, prefers the newer term "culture bumps" to "culture shock."
"Culture bumps are like speed bumps, a series of small changes. They affect you, but you keep on going." Coffey says.
Masaquiza stumbled across such a bump when she went on her first shopping trip here. Instead of natural, aromatic, recently picked fruit and meat coming directly from a farm, she saw rows of shiny and beautifully organized apples, cucumbers, fruits and vegetables, and pink chicken and pork. It looked good, but everything seemed lacking in any flavor or smell. And there were no live guinea pigs or rabbits in Dillons, which are common to roast or fry for dinner in her native country.
Ahmed Zafar, Saudi Arabia graduate, says that his culture shock was of a different kind. He had to put up with the unfair stereotype of a Muslim terrorist.
"As soon as people find out I'm a Muslim, they assume that I kill and mistreat my wife because that's how we're portrayed in the media here, and it's a media-driven society," he says.
The apartment where Zafer lives with his wife, Nur, and daughter, Suaad, 2, has a cozy atmosphere, with a light-brown thick rug on the floor, and cushions along the walls instead of couches.
The phone rings frequently in this home, with friends calling to ask for help or to chat. In Muslim traditions, it is common to help each other with whatever you can, and the relationships are family-like. "Brother"and "sister"are common terms of addressing friends and acquaintances.
Once Zafer called a stranger on the street "sister," meaning to ask her something. The woman looked scared and went away quickly without an answer.
Coffey doesn't think people from non-Western countries are necessarily subject to more severe culture shock than those from other parts of the world.
"It depends on the educational background, if you are coming from a big city or a small town, on how much traveling you have done before, on the purpose of coming and on the personal ability to confront changes," Coffey says.
Being prepared plays a big part, too.
"If you come knowing what you might be in for, and expect it, it really helps to cushion the stress. But a lot of people from Western Europe don't expect much change, and then it can become hard," she says.
The important thing in adjusting to a new culture, however, is not to get concentrated on the negative. Spending time with people from the same culture too much might reinforce feelings of isolation.
"It's important to find a balance, and to try to avoid falling into a pattern of criticizing everything." Potts says.

Strong defense helps women rout'Cats
Kansan sportswriter
For the Kansas State Wildcats, just getting a decent shot off yesterday at Allen Fieldhouse was a small victory.
"Their defense really put our younger perimeter players on their heels," said Kansas State head coach Deb Patterson. "Consequently, the shot clock was down a lot and we weren't getting very many shots."
The Kansas women's basketball team defensively dominated its overmatched, in-state rival from Manhattan in a 66-45 rout, the Wildcats' lowest point-total of the season.

The harassing Jayhawk defense made 14 steals, including four by junior Lynn Pride, who also led the Jayhawks with nine rebounds and scored 16 points.
women's BASKETBALI
For only the fourth time this season, Pride did not lead the Jayhawks in scoring. Kansas (16-6, 6-3) was paced by sophomore forward Brooke Reves. She hit 11 of 18 shots on her way to a career-high 23 points.
Sophomore guard Jennifer Jackson then hit three consecutive jump shots, opening up a 12-point lead for the Jayhawks.
Pride had the hot hand early, fighting her way inside to score eight of the Jayhawks' first 14 points. The Wildcat defense eventually began to slow Pride and K-State junior forward Nicky Ramage made a jump shot with 4:15 remaining in the half to bring her team within six points at 21-15.
guard me and that's when we were able to get it back into Lynn."
Pride set the stage early in the second half, pushing past defenders for layups on the Jayhawks' first two possessions.
The rest of the game was the Brooke Reves show. The Big 12 Newcomer of the Year candidate was hot from the floor, scoring 15 points during the next 12 minutes before being pulled out of the game with four minutes remaining and the lead securely in the Javhwaks' hands.
Reves made jumper after jumper, many coming after sharply thrown passes from a penetrating Lynn Pride.
"She makes me look awesome," Reves said of Pride. "If I find a hole, she sees me, and she's not afraid to make that pass. A lot of people are afraid to make a turnover and have to sit on the
bench, but she's not afraid because she knows she can get it there."
KJ
"I really enjoy playing with Brooke," Pride said. "She always catches my passes. We get that eye contact, and we really feed off of each other."
The dangerous combination of Pride and Reves accounted for more than half of the Jayhawks' points, and Reves could be the scoring threat that could take some of the pressure off of Pride.
The Jayhawks won't be needing too much scoring from anyone if they continue to play defense the way they did in the second half.
Kansas held Kansas State scoreless for nearly seven minutes during a stretch during which it opened up a 62-37 lead.
"We had a game plan, and defensively we really saw it through," head coach Marian Washington said. "We're moving with a lot more confidence. There is a trust that's building, and I think it's pretty evident."

World record holder Maurice Greene blew by the competition Friday at the Jayhawk Invitational, winning the 60-meter dash in 6.46 seconds, equaling the fastest time ever on U.S. soil.
Greene dominated the field at Anschutz Sports Pavilion, beating his closest competitor by almost five feet.
The victory, in Greene's first race of the indoor season, was made sweeter in front of a hometown crowd. Greene's family and high school coach were there to witness his win.
"It's always fun to come home and race in front of the fans that you've run in front of for years," he said.
Al Hopson, his former coach in Kansas City, put the race into perspective afterwards when he
reminisced about Greene.
"I watched him run from the beginning," he said. "And I've seen him do a lot of amazing things, but I just want to know one thing:
How does it feel to know that when you were fifteen, you got beat by that man holding the TV camera down there?"
down by all of the TV cameras and microphones of the press conference.
Hopson pointed to a rival from junior high who was crouching
Greene saw him and laughed.
Greene saw him and laughed. As the current world record holder in the 60 meters and a former United States and world outdoor champion in the 100-meter dash, Greene gave the crowd at Anschutz what it wanted — a jaw-dropping performance.
Thirty university teams competed in the invitational, but during two special 60-meter dashes, everything else stopped.
Photographers eagerly awaited the start, despite the announcers warnings to "Please stay clear of the track. No flash photography."
Long jumpers and pole vaulters sneaked over from their corners of the arena to crowd around the track. Coaches and athletes from the other side of the field stopped warming up to claim a spot at the edge of the track.
"It felt like I was running in a tunnel, there were so many people lined up on each side."
Greene said.
Kansas men's basketball coach Roy Williams and assistant coach Matt Doherty vied for a place to sit in the bleachers. Men's basketball players Nick Bradford and Kenny Gregory came over in practice gear, their heads peeking over the rest of the crowd.
Everyone waited for the same thing: pure, phenomenal, eyepopping speed.
Greene delivered
Fast out of the blocks, it took no more than twenty-five meters for Greene to take the lead. Once he did, he just kept making space between him and the rest of the field.
"Anything can happen in a 60-meter race. If you mess up, you've lost." Greene said.
Pleased with his time to start the season, Greene made no bones about his desire to break the 100-meter world record.
"That's my ultimate goal," he said. "But I have to wait for that record to come for me."
Jayhawks slay Buffaloes, end two-game losing streak
Kansan sportswriter
Bv Kevin C. Wilson
With a simple flick of the wrist, Kansas point guard Jeff Boschee broke a 74-74 tie with Colorado and a rare two-game Jayhawk losing streak.
After spending the majority of the second half on the sideline because of poor play, the freshman point guard stepped off the bench and into the limelight when he buried a threepointer with eight seconds remaining, sending the Jayhawks to a 77-74 win against Colorado on Saturday.
The win snapped the Jayhawks two-game losing streak. It also pushed their record to 14-6 overall and 6-2 in the Big 12 going into tonight's game against rival Kansas State. Kansas has won the last 13 meetings, its longest streak against the Wildcats since the 1940s, and has claimed 15 straight games in Manhattan. The Jayhawks never have lost a game in Kansas State's Bramplate Coliseum.
"It felt so smooth coming out of my hand," Boschee said. "It might have been short or long, but I knew it was on target."
"Coach Williams always says when we talk about streaks, you just try to put it off one more year," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "The three years I've won before have nothing to do with Monday night's game. We're going to have to play well, because I guarantee Manhattan will be
rockin' and ready."
"I try to be a spark," said Bradford, who scored a career-high 23 points on 9 of 11 shooting, in addition to four assists and three steals. "I just try to play hard. I don't think about offense or scoring or anything like that. I just play hard, because I want us to win."
Allen Fieldhouse definitely was rocking on Saturday.
Behind an emotionally charged Nick Bradford and three Robertson three-pointers, the Jayhawks went on a 21-6 run and took a 35-18 lead with fewer than five minutes remaining in the first half.
Despite Bradford's effort, the Jayhawks failed to finish off the Buffaloes, scoring only two more points before intermission, and limped into halftime with a 37-24 lead.
"That was an ugly last four minutes of the first half," Williams said. "This team shouldn't be overconfident, but I think at first we thought it was going to be easy. We were up 17 at the time, and then we have five or six possessions when we really stink it up. If we could have played the way we were supposed to it could have been a 20- or 22-point game, and then it really would have been difficult for them."
Instead, Colorado, 11-10 overall and 2-6 in the Big 12, cut the Kansas lead almost in during the opening minutes of the second half.
"Colorado kept coming at us." Williams said.
The Buffaloales scored 50 points in the second half and shot 56 percent as they got back into the game. The Colorado guards, especially junior point guard Jaquay Walls, continuously penetrated the lane and attacked the Jayhawks' interior defense. After scoring only four points and committing four turnovers in the first half, Walls exploded for 19 points and had only one turnover in the second half.
"They were so much more aggressive than us in the second half, they took it right to us."
"He was sensational." Robertson said. "His quickness was hard to stop, and he got into penetration, and that really hurt us."
Despite the Buffalofoos' second-half scoring spree, Kansas held on and beat Colorado for the 19th consecutive time and the 16th straight year in Allen Fieldhouse.
It also gave the Jayhawks an exciting start to a new winning streak, one that Kansas center Eric Chenowith is ready to continue tonight against the Wildcats.
"Thinking about the rivalry tends to get you fired up," Chenwith said. "But you've got to put that aside when game time comes and go out and win."

Commentary
Denver and Atlanta played a professional football game last night.
Watching Super Bowl a unifying experience
Don't get me wrong.I love foot
For the record, the Broncos won 34-19 for the NFL championship, but the game itself was almost a distraction for everybody not from Colorado or Georgia. For me and others not particularly intrigued by the match-up, the football game was something that was on TV between Budweiser commercials. It was a way to know exactly when Halftime Heat would be on USA Network (Mankind pinned Rock under a forklift loaded with beer kegs, recapturing the WWF championship belt).
But the Super Bowl is different. It's not a normal game. No, the Super Bowl is bigger than
ball. Heck, I
spend just
about every
Sunday afternoon from September to January on my couch watching the NFL.

the NFL, it's bigger than football;
it's bigger than life.
Fox started its continuous pregame coverage at 10 a.m. yesterday, but we've been bombarded by game analysis for the last two weeks.
A gazillion people watched the Super Bowl last night, but the vast majority didn't tune in because they wanted to see if Atlanta's undersized front four could contain Terrell Davis' signature toslef cutback.
Most of the viewers — who watched in just about every country with electricity — probably couldn't tell you what constitutes an illegal formation or what the neutral zone is.
My sister lives in Chicago, and all last year we talked about me visiting her. But she always had to work, money was scarce, and we never did find the time until the sports gods smiled upon me in October.
The Super Bowl represents everything that's great about sports. Nothing—with the possible exception of war—unites people quite like sports.
You don't watch because of the game on the field. You watch because of the 14-day hype that comes before the game, and you watch because of the circus-like atmosphere surrounding the game. You watch because you have to.
And it's not just the Super Bowl that has this power. It's just the clearest example. Sports has the power to bring people closer.
On a Friday afternoon, I get home and check the answering machine.
But that's the thing about the Suner Bowl. None of that matters.
Last night, they danced in the streets of Denver. Complete strangers exchanged high-fives for the simple reason that they both were wearing Broncos apparel.
You're darn right I did. All of a sudden, money didn't matter, and I found $250 to fly to O'Hare the next morning.
"Sam, this is Amanda, I won two tickets to the Cubs playoff game tomorrow. You have to come."
Once I was in Chicago, I exchanged pleasanties with fellow Cubs fans and even got my underage self into a bar on the merit of the Sammy Sosa jersey I was wearing.
We had a great time, and it never would have happened without the game.
That's why I watch

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (February 1)
Work with a partner this year and you'll get more money than you ever dreamt possible. Try to do it alone and just the opposite will be true. February is best for making plans and inventing new products. March is for love and abundance, not necessarily in that order. In April, watch out for accidents. You don't want to learn things the hard way. The money will become available around September, and in November a career opportunity pops up. Investment is required for December.
Aries: Today is a 7.
Curb the urge to be impetuous today. Your lesson to be learned right now has to do with structure, discipline and obedience. If you choose that on purpose now, the rest of the week will be a lot easier.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
Don't take you for an answer, especially if it's the firs answer you get. You're known for your persistence, and today that's your winning attitude. A partner will also come in handy. He or she will be able to get through where your path is blocked. Don't give the valuables to somebody you can't trust.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
There's something at home you could do yourself and save quite a bit of money, if only you knew how. Well, guess what? You can learn — and soon. Today, get a good book on the subject.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
You're getting a bulwark concerning your career. A friend could give you a push in the right direction. You'd never ask for it, but you might as well accept it if it's there. You'll have to make an investment in your own future.
Leo: Today is a 6.
The competition is so tough today, you may want to compromise. Perhaps you can enroll your competitor into helping you. Sheer flattery could work wonders. The other person is apt to fall for just about anything you say, as long as it promotes and exerts his or her ideas.
Virgo: Today is a 6.
Sagittarius: Today is a 6.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
You're better than most at keeping to your schedule, but complications beyond your control could prevent that from happening today. Try not to let somebody else's emergency get you rattled. The best you can do is exert your influence to make sure that everyone stays happy.
C
Capricorn: Today is a 6.
Libra: Today is a 6.
It looks like just about everybody wants to tell you what to do. A little of that goes a long way with you anyway, but today you'll be in a rather testy mood. Who do they think they are, anyway? Who do they think you are, a servant?
There will be lots of competition for your time today. Somebody you care about would love to dominate it, and you wouldn't mind that either. But there's work to be done. How about delegating some of your responsibilities instead?
There could be a slight difference of opinion today between two people you respect. They're both very intelligent, but sometimes they can't see their own way out of a paper bag. Today, you're the referee. You get to help them come to a compromise and see the obvious.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
Watch your money today. Don't let somebody talk you out of it without getting the very best possible deal. The better fight you put up, of course, the more likely that to happen. Don't feel like you'll make enemies by driving a hard bargain.
2
Confer with your partner today about a purchasing decision. Figure out what you'd like, what you need, what you can do without, and ask your friend to do the same. By the time the meeting is through, it'll be clear what you can afford and where you should go next, which is the objective, of course.
Pisces: Today is a 6.
女 女
Your work may seem overwhelming today, but don't despair. You're learning lots of important things that you'll be able to use later, and something you're learning is going to lead to a lot more income. It's tough in the beginning, but the more you practice, the better you'll get at it.

The team co-captain had 120 tackles last fall, the second-best season total by a defensive back in school history. Allen also received the Willie Pless Tackler of the Year Award.
Women's tennis match was a family affair
Jenny Garrity, the Kansas women's tennis coach, and her sister, Kris Sell, the Kansas No. 1 singles player, couldn't rally the team to beat younger sister Kathy Sell and her Duke Blue Devils teammates.
In the Jayhawks' spring season opener, Kansas was shut out 9-0 by the second-ranked Blue Devils. Duke improved to 1-1, while Kansas fell to 0-1.
"We started off slow," Garrity said.
"But we did a good job of not letting the first set bother us."
Yesterday the Jayhaws played No. 10 William and Mary, which upset Duke Friday. Results were not available at press time.
Kansan staff reports
BOSTON — Don't get carried away by Boston's 2-0 record. After all, the wins came in exhibition games. The way Paul Pierce played in those games is a different story.
In the two wins against Toronto, the rookie from Kansas had 35 points, 19 rebounds and nine steals. In Friday night's 120-99 victory, he had 21 points, 12 rebounds and five steals. And the Celtics open their season next Friday against the Raptors.
Pierce shines in Celtics' first exhibition games
"He's the truth — the real deal." Celtics point guard Kenny Anderson said.
"The Raptors are a good team." Pierce said. "I know they were trying to play their entire roster. I'm sure next Friday they'll be a lot tougher."
Pierce: Scored 35 points in two NBA exhibition games.
They will still be facing an improved Celtics team that drafted Ron Mercer in 1997 and Pierce in 1998. And the fans should be more animated than

the calm crowd that got free tickets and filled about three-quarters of the FleetCenter on Friday in the Celtics' first home game since the lockout ended.
"Compared to last year in preseason, I think he's far ahead of me," Mercer said. "He's adjusting well to what we're doing."
Pierce, the 10th player drafted after being projected to go as high as second, outplayed Toronto rookie Vince Carter, who was taken fifth. Carter had 20 points, but 13 of them came after Boston had taken a 103-78 lead.
As a rookie, Mercer averaged 15.3 points and 3.5 rebounds per game. Pierce could surpass that.
Pierce didn't focus on the comparison between him and Carter, but said, "I feel like I should have been one of the top players (drafted). So I want to go out and show them that this is what they're missing on. This is what you could have had."
Jazz, Nuggets game: NBA Jayhawk reunion
SALT LAKE CITY — At the same time the Utah Jazz lost the LaPhonzo Ellis free-agent derby, they showed why they might not need him after all.
Ellis called Jazz owner Larry Miller during the first quarter of Utah's 108-90 exhibition win against Denver on Friday night to tell Miller he had decided to sign with the Atlanta Hawks.
and strong in Western Conference titles.
Former Jaihawks Greg Oostertag and Jacque Vaughn made limited contributions to the Jazz's effort. Oostertag was 1-1 from the field and finished with two points. Vaughn was 1-3 from the field and 2-2 from the free-throw line and finished with four points.
But jugging from the Jazz's steady effort against an improved Nuggets team, Utah already has the chemistry to go for its third straight Western Conference title.
The game was the beginning of a new era for the Nuggets, who likely will return only five players from last year's 1.1-7.1 team. Nick Van Exel, Chauncey Billups, Raef LaFrentz and Keon Clark all played their first games in a Denver uniform, and Mike D'Antoni made his coaching debut.
LaFrentz: Scored four points in first NBA game.
The debut of LaFrentz, a former Jayhawk, was unsteady. The third overall pick in last year's draft was 0-for-8 from the field, but he led the Nuggets with eight rebounds and was 4-4 from the free-throw line. Billups was just 2-for-9, but he

Boschee's winning shot highlight of young career
By Marc Sheforgen Associate sports editor
Jeff Boschee's only field goal in Kansas' win over Colorado Saturday was the biggest of his life and the biggest of the Jayhawk's season.
After being benched for much of the second half for careless ball handling, the freshman point guard avenged his poor play the best way possible — by hitting a three-point shot with eight seconds remaining and breaking a tie that resulted in a 77-74 Kansas victory, its first in three games.
“It’s the biggest shot I’ve ever made,” Boschee said. “I’ve made shots at the end of the third quarter, but never at the end of a game.”
With the score tied and 14 seconds to play in regulation, Kansas coach Roy Williams called a timeout and drew up a play he said he had used in previous late-game situations, including a loss at Missouri two years ago.
The play was designed to yield three different shot options. Both Ryan Robertson and Nick Bradford were to be freed by screens, and, if Boscheh had an opening, he was to penetrate to the basket.
with a little twist.
Bradford inbounded to Boschee, who then dribbled down the left side of the lane. When he was stopped by Colorado's interior defense, Boschee dished to Robertson and then retreated to behind the three-point arc. Jaquay Walls, who had been guarding Boschee, ran toward Robertson, leaving Boschee unguarded. Robertson recognized the double-team and passed to his
That's how it unfolded Saturday.
backcourt
teammate for
the open shot.
Robertson said that he could have gotten a shot off and would have liked the game-winner to have been his own, but that he was confident in Boschee's shooting and didn't hesitate to pass.
Nicolas Cayol
Boschee: Had never made a game-winning shot.
"I'm not going to force something up when I see a teammate wide open, regardless of who it is or regardless of what kind of a day he's having," Robertson said. "Today was Jeff's day. No longer on this
team is he considered a freshman.
He's considered someone who knows what he's doing and should be ready to play."
Before his end-of-the-game heroes, Boschese had shot 0 for 3 from the field and only had two points from the free-throw line. He also turned the ball over four times in contrast to his four assists.
"When you're a point guard, you shouldn't turn the basketball over just dribbling it," Williams said of why he opted to bench Boschee in the second half. "I would not be a good college player at this level, 'cause if someone stole my basketball, I'd hit him right in the mouth, and he wouldn't do that again. I'd take it personally, and I think that that's what I want Jeff to do is to take it personally. I don't want him to hit anyone in the mouth, but he's a nicer kid than I was."
Boschee's shot reminded some of the Jayhawks of Jacque Vaughn's three-point buzer-beeper against Indiana in 1993 when Vaughn was a freshman.
"Hopefully, somebody will remember that shot like they remember Jacque's, and he (Boschee) will have that same type of career where he'll be one of the greats to play here," Williams said.
Track teams successful in Iowa
Broken records, titles mark season's start
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
And it's just the beginning.
The Kansas men's and women's track teams already have experienced success this season.
And it's just the beginning.
Track athletes have broken records, given top performances and won race titles.
Smashing records have been an important part of sophomore All-American Scott Russell's season. He has established a new Kansas school record in weight throw, winning the 35-pound weight throw event with a new school record of 70 feet, 2-1/4 inches. He also qualified for the NCAA Indoor Championships and set a new Big 12 record, which gave him the third best collegiate mark of the year.
"I knew a big threw was going to come."
Russell said. "It feels great, though."
A second-place finish in the triple jump by senior Lester Smith also qualified him for the NCAA Championships.
Strong performances by Eric Paterson and Kevin McGinn helped the men's track team finish fourth this weekend at the Big Four Invitational held at Northern Iowa.
Patterson, a sophomore, placed first in the 60-meter high hurdles.
McGinn's win came in the 3,000-meter race, an event he had not run since early January. He ran the mile two weeks ago at the K-State Triangular and won the event but was unsure of what to think going into this weekend's race.
"The 3,000 is harder to maintain focus because I think that the 15 laps around the track plays with your mind," said McGinn, a senior. "But I think that it's still hard to tell if the mile or the 3,000 is going to be my best event."
Second-place finishes by sophomore Charlie Gruber in the 1000
meter run and senior Colby Miller in the pole vault, and third-place finishes by Russell in the shot put and sophomore Greg Steele in the pole vault rounded out the top performances for the men's team.
Plagued with injuries, the women's squad finished last, although not without giving a few strong performances.
Sophomore All-American Andrea Branson set a personal best in the pole vault and won the women's competition. Freshman Shannon Agee took second place. Both provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships.
Sophomore Sherre-Khan Blackmon added a third-place finish in the 600-meter run, rounding out the top performances for the women's squad.
"I think we're making good progress towards the conference meet," said Coach Gary Schwartz.
Falcons safety arrested in Miami
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Eugene Robinson is one of the NFL's most respected players.
His bubbly, infectious leadership was a major reason the Atlanta Falcons reached their first Super Bowl. His strong religious beliefs, usually espoused in sermon-like fashion, seemed to make him a role model in this era of misbehaving athletes.
But Saturday night, less than 24 hours before the Super Bowl, the Pro Bowl safety was arrested on a downtown Miami street, charged with soliciting an undercover police officer for oral sex.
Police said Robinson was arrested at 9 p.m. Saturday on Biscayne Boulevard, a major street frequented by prostitutes and drug
dealers. He was driving alone in a rented car.
"While conducting an undercover prostitution sting, defendant drove up... and offered the officer $40 for (oral sex)" the police report said.
The misdemeanor charge carries a maximum sentence of 60 days in
jail, but most first-time offenders are offered some combination of community service, attending a
Despite the arrest, Falcons coach Dan Reeves allowed Robinson to start last night against the Denver Broncos, the first NFL championship game in Atlanta's 33-year
course on the dangers of solicitation and a fine, said police spokesman Angel Calzadilla.
"I love Eugene unconditionally," said Reeves, speaking poolside during a pregame TV show. "As far as I'm concerned, and as far as the league is concerned, he can play."
history.
He signed with the Falcons as a free agent and became the unquestioned leader of the secondary, earning Pro Bowl honors and bringing a winning attitude to a franchise that was used to losing. All week, he wore his 1997 Super Bowl ring to inspire his teammates.
Robinson, who played in the last two Super Bowls with Green Bay, is the NFL's career leader among active players with 53 interceptions, including four this season.
Robinson remained in seclusion at the hotel and didn't comment on his arrest before the Super Bowl.

THOMAS HARRISON
MIAMI - John Elway, who spent his first 14 NFL seasons without a Super Bowl ring, got his second straight yesterday, weaving his magic for what could be the final time as the Denver Broncos beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-19.
The Associated Press
Elway undecided about his future plans
The 38 year-old Elway completed 18 of 29 passes for 336 yards and one touchdown and ran three yards for another score. His total yardage was third best in Super Bowl history.
Elway refused to say whether he would retire or come back for a chance to win a third straight Super Bowl.
Broncos whip 'Dirty Birds'
"I'm going to take some time, relish this year," he said. "You got to love those challenges. We've got the team; we've got the nucleus here to do it. It definitely throws a kink into my thinking."
In addition to the Falcons, who did everything they could to self-destruct on offense, Elway's accomplices were:
Darrien Gordon, who intercepted two passes that set up two scores and set a Super Bowl record with 108 vards in interception returns.
Terrell Davis, the league MVP,
who carried 25 times for 102 yards.
- Wide receiver Rod Smith, who caught five passes for 152 yards and an 80-yard touchdown.
Fullback Howard Griffith, who had two-yard TD runs.
Despite the absence of tight end Shannon Sharpe, who injured a knee in the first quarter, Denver receivers consistently burned Eugene Robinson, the Atlanta safety who was
But for all the Broncos did, the game turned on what the Falcons didn't do — getting only six points on their first six forays into Denver territory. Their first touchdown came on rookie Tim Dwight's 94-yard kick-off return with 11 minutes left in the game.
In the second quarter, Atlanta moved to the Denver 8, but couldn't convert on third and goal. Then Andersen, one of only two kickers with more than 400 career field goals, missed a 26-yard attempt.
Even if Atlanta's offense hadn't self-destructed, the Falcons would have had problems because the defense couldn't stop Elway. Denver scored on six of its first 10 possessions.
Dwight returned the opening kickoff to his own 37, and the Falcons went 48 yards in 10 plays to set up Andersen's 32-yard field goal that gave them a 3-1 lead.
The Broncos responded with an 80-yard, 10-play drive capped by Griffith's 1-yard dive for a touchdown.
On the Broncos' next possession, a pass deflected off Sharpe's hands to Bradford, giving the Falcons a first down at the Denver 35. But the Falcons came up short on third and 1 and lost two yards going for it on fourth down.
The Broncos drove 63 yards in 11 plays to set up a 26-yard field goal by Elam that gave them a 10-3 lead 5:43 into the second quarter.
Once again the Falcons threatened and didn't score when Andersen missed a 26 yard field goal wide right.
SUPERBOWL XXXII
That was a killer.
On the next play, Smith caught Elway's pass for the 80-yard touchdown.
Atlanta moved well — down to the Denver 11 — but it couldn't get the ball in the end zone and had to settle for Andersen's 28-yard field goal that made it 17-6 at the half.
A holding penalty by Duane Carswell, who replaced Sharpe, pushed the Broncs back, and Elam missed a 38-yard field goal attempt.
Four minutes later, Elam missed again from 48 yards after Darius Johnson's interception gave the Broncos the ball at the Atlanta 42.
On the next series, Atlanta moved to the Denver 21 on runs of 13 and 15 yards by Anderson and a 13-yard pass from Chandler to Terrance Mathis.
But on the next play, Keith Traylor tipped Chandler's pass, and Gordon picked it and raced 58 yards to the Falcons' 24.
On their next possession, the Falcons moved to the 26. But on first down, Gordon picked off his second pass, returning it 50 yards to the Atlanta 48.
Three plays later, Elway went in from the 3 to make it 31-6 and effectively end the game.
Following Dwight's TD return, Elam added a 37-yard field goal with 7:08 left.
Chandler's 3-yard pass to Mathis with 204 left capped the scoring. A 2-point conversion attempt failed.

Easy steps to studying abroad.
1 Visit the Office of Study Abroad (OSA)
Browse through the resource library, request brochures, view a video,and make an appointment to attend a group informational meeting. We welcome interested high school students, undergraduates and graduate students.
2 Narrow your options
Meet with your group at the scheduled time. Define your goals for studying abroad and identify suitable programs. Make an appointment to attend an informational meeting about the program you are interested in or make an individual appointment with a study abroad coordinator.
3 Find out about costs
Attend a Study Abroad Financial Aid Meeting or meet with a Study Abroad Financial Advisor regarding program costs and using your financial aid.
4 Inform yourself
Learn about the country where you wish to study abroad. Talk with exchange students and study abroad returnees about their experiences. Join the Study Abroad Club.
5 Apply
Begin applying for your program of choice the semester before you plan to go. Deadlines are between February 1st and March 15th for Fall, Academic Year, and Summer and between September 1st and October 15th for Spring.
6 See your Academic Advisor
Discuss your study abroad plans and courses and have your Academic Advisor's Approval form signed.
7 Submit your application to the OSA on or before the deadline
8 You've been accepted
Send acceptance forms to the OSA, apply for your passport and make travel plans.
9 Orient yourself
Attend the OSA pre-departure orientation for a full day of program information and question-and-answer sessions with past participants. Read carefully all the information in your orientation packet and feel free to ask questions.
10 Pack your bags,
Dear Jayhawk,
Did you ever think about studying abroad? What stopped you? Don't let this great opportunity go by without at least investigating the possibilities! Come and see us in 108 Lippincott or look us up on the web and find out more about how you can study abroad. If you don't do it as a student you won't do it later. Studying abroad is something you can only do when you are a student. Soon enough you will have been here four years or more and it is time to graduate. Then you will get a job, two weeks vacation if you are lucky, and you will have to start paying back your school loans. In time you may get married, have children and then one day you are going to say to yourself "I had the chance, why didn't I take it?"
On FEBRUARY 3, we are having a Study Abroad Fair in the Kansas Union and you are most welcome to come and talk to past participants of our program and get some more information. Remember that a study abroad experience really sets your resume apart from others when you are looking for a job! And, if you have to take a loan to make studying abroad a reality, it will probably be the best investment you would ever make in yourself!
If you are afraid of the costs you should definitely look into some of our exchange programs like the ones to England. The direct exchange with one of our universities in Great Britain will cost you a little more than 9,000 dollars for a whole year. An orientation in London is included in this price but you have to add the cost for the airfare, personal expenses and travel, passport and books. Expensive? Not really. Go figure how much you spend at KU during a whole year! The comparison might be very interesting!

San Jose
by Phil Cauthon
Semester in San Jose, Costa Rica
"Study abroad will change your life forever." I'd heard that phrase so many times before leaving for Costa Rica that I nearly took it as a point of fact. Yet somehow my vision of this imminent paradise couldn't be reconciled with a life-changing experience. A life changing experience, I thought, had to be more extreme than easy days on palm-lined beaches far away from the rat-race.
Now given nearly a semester of objective retrospect, I know that my life was deeply affected by both the extreme and the more subtle aspects of being submersed in a Central American culture. And, to my surprise, it was probably the subtle peculiarities of study abroad that will more definitively shape who I am...that is, who I am as a United States citizen or here at home.
For me, Costa Rica was a sunrise on the Caribbean, amidst such striking beauty that you could not possibly believe it was all created by chance completely alone save the skittering crabs and an octopus trapped in a low tide pool.
Costa Rica was an early walk through the rain forest no longer surprised by the monkeys living in their natural habitat, throwing nuts down at you,the invader of their territory.
Costa Rica was an afternoon in a
tiny village of cheerful people tending to their work or playing in the streets and being the only one startled by the volcano erupting in the distance.
Costa Rica was a sunset on a Pacific beach, apparently undiscovered by capitalism, contemplating absolutely nothing other than the ever-changing impressionism in the sky.
And Costa Rica was a night spent with a comfortable mix of beer, a few locals, a vacationing German physics professor, a Biblically-focused Rastafarian, that French couple, and you. You the American, somehow the representative for the moment of arguably the most powerful and influential country in the (short) history of humanity.
That is a powerful feeling. While walking the anonymous streets of San Jose or tooling around campus I justifiably felt like just another gringo, a descendant of William Walker himself born by chance in the land of the great come to flaunt my whitewashed superiority. But once a conversation opened once a personal relationship began to form, I felt like I had the chance to be an American citizen. That is, to be a person distinct from the actions of the United States government so well known around the globe.
Inevitably my experiences were mixed. I formed some very close relationships from which both of us learned a great deal about not only each other as individuals but also the culture and land where each of us live. And many of these new friends from around the world continue to teach me through letters and e-mail. They give me a perspective on life that cannot be had through the classroom or the media.
At the same time, I remember being obviously within earshot of a discussion between a Costa Rican and a Swede venting in Spanish their hate for Americans. While it pained me to hear such talk, especially from acquaintances, I felt like I understood its source and hearing it humbled me. To much of the world, our government is our voice albeit a narrow and poorly representative voice. No matter how much we may disapprove of certain aspects of our government, to a degree we as Americans will always be held accountable for its actions.
It was through these various relationships and my time spent objectively distant from the U.S. that my perspective on life was changed. Although before studying abroad I was vaguely aware of myself as an American, I had never experienced first hand what the United States means to the world. And while I am more grateful than ever for this land and its people, those six months created in me a sense of responsibility for furthering a different relationship with individuals from other nations. A relationship that is based not on economic exploitation or political dominance, but on mutual understanding rooted in our common humanity.
And like I noted earlier, such an understanding cannot be had through a second-hand source-especially via such an abbreviated article as this one. There is no substitute for going abroad for an extended period. Studying abroad will force you to reevaluate yourself as an individual and will open your eyes to a more objective picture of the world.

Not sure where to start? We have the answers to help you go abroad.
Where can I study?
Study Abroad programs are available in 20 different languages in locations throughout the world. Study in English is widely available,in 25 countries in 5 world areas. KU administrates study abroad programs in the following countries:
The Americas: Argentina, Brazil Canada, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Mexico Paraguay, Uruguay
Europe: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland France, Great Britain, Greece, Germany Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Malta, Netherlands Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Russia
Middle East: Egypt, Israel Africa: Cote d'Ivoire, Kenya Zambia
Australasia: Australia, Fiji, Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, New Zealand, People's Republic of China, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand
How credit awarded?
For most programs, upon return to KU and receipt of transcripts from the host institution abroad, grades are posted for KU equivalent courses on the student's KU transcript.
Through the Office of Study Abroad, students remain enrolled at KU earn resident KU credit,and are awarded grades for credit earned while studying abroad. Students from most disciplines may earn credit to fulfill KU degree requirements.
To ensure continued progress toward a degree, an Academic Advising Form for Study Abroad, an outline of courses the student plans to take while overseas and the KU degree requirements that will be fulfilled, must be completed for admission to a study abroad program.
What can I study?
Some programs focus on a particular field of study while others offer a general curriculum. Study Abroad participants come from all schools of the university including: Architecture, Business, Education Engineering, Fine Arts, Journalism Liberal Arts and Sciences, Social Welfare
Most students are able to fulfill graduation requirements and maintain progress toward their degree while studying abroad. A few examples of discipline-specific programs include those for: Architecture • Art and Design • Business Engineering • Environmental Studies Languages History International Business Economics Classics Education Social Welfare Humanities
Many semester and academic year programs allow qualified students with demonstrated language proficiency to choose from regular university course offerings.
How do I apply?
To begin a search for a study abroad program, you are encouraged to visit the Office of Study Abroad, browse through the resource library and attend information meetings, then schedule a meeting with a study abroad advisor to identify the program that best fits your needs.
An application, including academic advisor's approval of intended courses of study, must be submitted for admission.
Admission requirements and prerequisites, available fields of study, and competitiveness for admission vary from program to program. Early planning for study abroad will generally afford more options.
What about the cost?
Program costs vary, but studying abroad does not have to be expensive.
For instance, KU exchange agreements with universities in Costa Rica United Kingdom, France, Australia, and with the International Student Exchange Program (ISEP) provide study abroad opportunities of great value at tuition room and board costs close to those of staying on the Lawrence campus.
Students paying non-resident tuition will find that the cost of study abroad can be less than that of studying on campus.
Normally, federal financial aid is applicable to study abroad programs and in most cases KU scholarships and grants may be applied to the study abroad program fee.
Must speak a foreign language?
You do not need to be fluent in a foreign language to study abroad. Several semester and year programs and many summer institutes are open to students with a minimum of language study.
Opportunities to study in English are plentiful, both in English-speaking and non-English-speaking cultures.
Of course, KU offers many study abroad programs for students with proficiency in the language of the host country.
Take the chance of a lifetime.

A Taste of the World
What's your favorite food memory from your time abroad?
P
Jo Eidsness (Nanjing University, China)
"I went on a horse trek in Song Pan, Sichuan. When we looked in the Lonely Planet guide, at the end of the write up it said "Beware of the potatoes." In the past someone told the guides that foreigners really liked potatoes. Every meal we had for 31/2 days consisted solely of potatoes. They were cooked in a variety of ways, and all were very tasty, but we were pretty sick of potatoes by the end."
Amanda Shaw (Western Civilization, Italy & France)
"Smoked cheese and zucchini rissotto at Borgo Antigo, Florence."
PETER B. SMITH
Jared Stone (University of Stirling, Scotland) "Fish and Chips. I found a chippie in Scotland that would deep fat fry anything you wanted They specialized in deep fat fried Mars Bars and
eggs. I heard they fried a computer once, just for kicks."
.
Jen VanGrevenhof (Western Civilization, Italy & France)
"Ribolita (peasant food) at "La Massace" which was off of the Palazzo Republica in Florence.
Two friends and I ate there every Thursday before Art History and by the time we left Italy, we walked in and they just brought us this dish. We took pictures with all the cooks to send them a picture when we got back stateside."
PETER ELLIS
Beau Baker (Western Civilization, Italy & France)
FASTER
"Baklava in Greece. It's all I ate the entire week."
Sam Iga (Besancon, France)
"Croissant - nice buttery flavor. My favorite little treat that I made trips for. Looked for the perfect one."
"Sitting at a cafeE in Lisbon, Portugal watching people and enjoying a nice buttery bowl of snails.
Tim Seever (Western Civilization, Italy & France)
You have to use a toothpick to dig them out of the shell, but well worth the effort."
What's New in Study Abroad
Study in English in Hong Kong
Starting this fall, KU students can study at Hong Kong University (HKU) in a variety of disciplines all taught in English. This semester program provides a wonderful opportunity to students that want to learn first-hand about Asian cultures but do not yet have the language skills to go directly into a foreign language program. HKU is one of Hong Kong's most prestigious universities and offers opportunities for students that wish to study anything from English literature to Business. Interested students should either stop by the Office of Study Abroad or attend the Study Abroad Fair to learn more!
New Summer Programs
Four new KU summer programs are being offered this summer, and each promise to provide a wonderful experience to students. For students studying French, Advanced French Studies in Strasbourg, France will allow students to pursue French language and literature studies in one of Europe's most interesting cities. If students choose to, they can do the Advanced French Studies program in conjunction with another new program, European Studies in Brussels, Belgium. The Belgium program, taught in English, will provide students with the opportunity to talk with NATO and European Union officials and get an in depth look at European society. Additionally, two new programs in Israel will be offered. Students can either choose to do hands-on archeological investigation on the Caesarea Expedition or study a variety of social sciences at Tel Aviv University on their Israel: From Ancient Land to Modern State program. More information on all these programs can be found both at the Study Abroad Fair and in the Office of Study Abroad.
Humanities and Western Civilization to go both Fall and Spring
Due to overwhelming popularity, the Humanities and Western Civilization program will go both in the fall and spring, starting Fall 1999. The program has traditionally gone only in the spring semester, but was expanded to meet student demand. The Humanities and Western Civilization program allows students to study for half of a semester in Florence, Italy and half in Paris, France. Students take both semesters of their Western Civilization requirement, as well as a history and an Art History course. All coursework is taught in English.

Making the Most of Summer Study Abroad Returnees Talk About Their Experiences
British Summer Institute
Jennie Hocking was ready to get out of Kansas. She claims that "growing up on a farm, [she] never got to go anywhere." That is, until she attended the British Summer Institute. During a five-week program, students studied humanities while traveling throughout Great Britain. For Jennie, the program became an important personal experience as well as academic. "My ancestry is English," she said, "and I was able to visit the graves of some of my ancestors." Jennie's favorite stopping place was Scotland, where the sun came up at three in the morning, and there was a view of the English Channel from her window. She also thought that meeting local people in pubs and around the towns gave her an insight into the culture and proved a lot of fun. She said that while she did not originally choose the trip for its academic value, she feels that she learned more in one summer abroad than in an entire semester at KU.
Hiratsuka
John Schneiderwind was not sure that he would adjust well in Japan. So,he chose the Summer Institute in Hiratsuka and spent five weeks studying the Japanese language and culture. John preferred the five-week program versus a semester or year program because "if [he] was not liking it,[he] knew [he] could go home within weeks instead of months."
But, adjusting to a different culture did not prove to be too difficult. John never wished to go home. He said the way of life in eastern cultures is very different than his life in the
States. "It was strange to see people eating squid and octopus on a stick," he said. But, he kept an open mind. Before too long he actually tried some of the octopus and jellyfish. He recalls "eating jellyfish was like eating a tasteless pickle." As a Japanese Language and Culture major, John said the trip proved to be essential to his degree. He said that "traveling to Japan is something that every Japanese Language and Culture major should have to do."
Hermitage
Carla Tilghman's decision to travel to Russia during the summer was "based solely on the program." She said "it was a pilot program only offered during the summer" and therefore, if she wanted to participate in the program at the Hermitage Museum, she was left with no other options. But, her decision to spend the summer in St. Petersburg, Russia was not one that she regrets. She said that the experience of studying Art History abroad proved to be more valuable than a typical summer at home. Also, choosing a summer program was more viable for her because she does not speak the native language. She felt comfortable with this shorter length of time compared to an entire semester or year in Russia. And, she said summer was better than fall or spring because of the weather. She claims "there are only 4 hours of sun in January-no thank you!"
Carla said that summer in Russia is definitely the best time to go.After all,she said, "Who wants to be in the Hermitage Museum in winter? It's not heated!"
Holzkirchen
Tony Bichelmeyer said he did not miss his typical summer lifestyle at home while he studied in Germany one summer. "I actually don't do a whole lot during the summer except work and school," he said, "so I just transferred school to Germany." A summer program worked best for Tony because he was lacking credit hours he couldn't afford to take off during a semester or year. "I did it so I could catch up and be on a full course load during the fall and spring,"he said. He thought his experience in Holzkichen was so beneficial to his International Business degree that he said, "I am going back to Germany next summer."
Rome
As an Art History major at KU, Elizabeth Jared had not really seen most of the art that she had studied. But, when she attended the Ancient Art and Architecture program in Rome, Italy last summer, the desire to experience the art in person was fulfilled.
"I really wasn't interested in Renaissance and Baroque art before, but seeing it firsthand really made a difference-it's incredible," she said. Walking around the museums in Rome was more memorable than summer school in a classroom. "You just don't get the same experience from a textbook," she said. Elizabeth also chose the summer program so she would not get behind in her regular studies. She said the summer program was intensive, but surprisingly laid back. "We had a lot of free time to do stuff on our own," she said.

Greek GPA higher than University grade total
Sorority finishes top of the Hill
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
KU fraternity and sorority members had higher grade point averages last semester than non-greeks, with one sorority posting an average of better than 3.30.
The grade point average for all KU students from last semester was 2.870. The Greek student average was 2.976, according to figures provided by Wes Simons, associate director of greek programs.
Mary Ann Rasnak, director of the Student Development Center, said that living in greek communities was beneficial to students' academic performances.
"People learn better in groups," she said. "When people live together, they have built in opportunities to work together."
Brendan Woodbury, Interfraternity Council vice president for education and scholarship, said that certain fraternities and sororities had a tradition for promoting academic excellence, which put pressure on new members to maintain that tradition.
"One of the reasons fraternities and sororites exist is to help their members improve their grade point averages," said Woodbury, Prairie Village sophomore.
He said that fraternities and sororities had programs set up within the chapters that helped members develop study skills.
Included in these programs is requiring new members to study a specific number of hours each week.
Rasnak said that the higher greek grade point average also was because members had access to more resources and in-house tutoring.
Woodbury said that many chapters had older members monitor newer members to ensure that they were studying in the correct way.
Members of Kappa Alpha Theta sorority had the highest overall scholarship ranking. The group's 149 members earned a 3.309 overall grade point average.
Alpha Delta Pi sorority members were in second place again this semester. They were just 0.028 short of the top spot. The chapter's overall average was 3.281.
While the overall chapter average for Chi Omega sorority increased from its Fall 1997 first-place average, it fell to third place this semester.
beta Theta Pi fraternity led the 23 fraternities at the University again this semester with a chapter grade point average of 3.267. The fraternity also had the highest grade point average for Fall 1997 semester.
Phi Gamma Delta fraternity improved its overall chapter grade point average by 0.39 points and moved from 16th place, to second from Fall 1997 to Fall 1998.
Sigma Chi fraternity placed third with a 3.017 chapter average.
Woodbury said that many chapters had incentive programs set up to recognize members' academic performances.
These programs include banquets, prizes and scholarships.
Events to recognize minority students
Office of Minority Affairs chancellor to hold receptions
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
The chancellor will be the host of a reception for Asian-American students at his home tonight so the students can put faces with the names of KU administrators and fellow Asian-American students.
this is an effort on the part of the chancellor's office and the Office of Minority Affairs to acknowledge students of different ethnic minorities and the value
they have to this institution," said Gloria Flores, associate director in the Office of Minority Affairs and one of the organizers of the reception.
During the next two weeks, the chancellor will hold formal receptions with members of First Nations, the Black Student Union and the Hispanic Leadership Organization.
Flores said the University of Kansas recruited minorities well, but it needed to improve minority
student retention
"We are also trying to address the issue of attrition and what kinds of ways we can keep our ethical grounds at KU." Flores said.
Universities work to retain students by funding academic support programs, mentoring programs and scholarships, she said.
The McNair Scholars Program, the Minority Business Scholars and the Dean's Scholars Program are some of the methods the various colleges used to retain minorities. Flores said.
She said that the deans of all schools would be invited to attend the receptions to hear students' input.
The Office of Minority Affairs
and the Office of the Chancellor are the sponsors of the receptions. James Kitchen, dean of student life, helped arrange the receptions.
"We want to encourage them to keep students coming back to school and also give them a chance to interact with us and voice their concerns," Kitchen said. "It's just an opportunity for them to come together and meet people they haven't met before, to nut faces with names."
"My part is basically to advertise our organization. Invitations were sent out to 700 people. It's a chance for us to meet those people," she said.
Minority attrition rates were not a problem, and they were not the reason for having the receptions, Kitchen said.
Topeka senior Nellie Kim, president of the Asian American Student
dent Union, said that she had never been to the chancellor's residence and that she was excited to attend.
Kim said that she did not think that there was a problem with Asian-American students leaving the University.
"They decided to try to honor Asian Americans and to let us know that they are aware of us," she said. "It's not retention as maybe you might think. I think they're just trying to be generous. It's remaining in an indirect way."
Shadows of superstition
Punxsutawney Phil emerges from his hole to shed light on spring weather
By Ezra Sykes
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
The day of the shadow has arrived.
The day of the shadow has a rive. Once again, Groundhog Day has popped out of its hole and will promote extra chatter about the weather.
According to the legend, if the grounddog is frightened back into his hole by his shadow today, six more weeks of cold and dreary weather can be expected. If there is no shadow, spring is near and the grounddog will leave his hole.
But it is,after all,just a legend.
David Braaten, professor of atmospheric science, said that Groundhog Day was nothing more than a myth.
"You could get the results by flipping a coin," he said. "We've spent billions of dollars on radars and satellites. It's a technological field that's not based on myths and Ouja boards."
Some students were apa-thetic toward the holiday.
Nate Geraci,
Syracuse, N.Y.
senior, said that
he usually only
related the holiday
to the Bill

but that he
hoped for better
weather.
"Hopefully, he won't see his s hadow because I'm ready for some warmer temperatures," he said.

Wohlfort, Assaria sophomore, said she was a warm weather person and also was hoping for an early spring.
"All I know is that when Punxutawney Phil says it is going to be a cold, it's going to be cold forever," she said.
The rodent festivity can be traced to the German holiday Candlemas Day, which began during the 17th century. The Germans believed that a hedgehog frightened by his shadow on Candlemas Day would forecast six more weeks of winter.
Geraci and Wohlfort may be in luck.
Geraci and Womoff may be in attack. Scott Dergan, meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Topeka, said that the Lawrence area would see sunshine tomorrow morning but that in Punxsutawney, Penn., where the official groundhog dwells, clouds probably would fill the sky.
The belief was transported to the United States and Canada by German settlers, and the hedgehog
figure was carried over to the grounddog.
After making claims that the groundhog, known as Punxsutawney Phil, could correctly predict the weather, the group held the first official forecast
During the 1880s, a group of residents from Punxsutawney, Penn., began celebrating Candlemas by going into the woods to search for groundhogs. By 1886, a local newspaper editor had dubbed the group the Punx-sutawney Groundhog Club.

Proposed law aims to dry up drinking
City and university officials are not the only ones who want students who buy kegs to be responsible for underage drinkers. Kansas officials also have discussed imposing a state law requiring people who buy kegs to register them.
Kansan staff writer
By Heather Woodward
Attorney General Carla J. Stovall and members of her Far-Reaching Alteration of Traffic and Alcohol Laws Task Force announced their recommendations to the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee last week.
FATAL'S recommendations included enacting a keeg registration law, which would aim to regulate house parties.
Jane Nohr, an assistant attorney general, said that if the law passed, people who bought a keg would have to register it when purchasing it at a liquor store or a bar. This process would make the purchaser liable for underage drinkers.
The retailer would record at the time of sale the keg number, the date of sale and the purchaser's name, address and signature," Nohr said.
Caleb Asher, Mound City, Mo,
senior, said he did not know
how effective a keg registration
law would be.

hate it, Nohr said.
The person buying the key also would have to produce a form of ID with a photo and signature, and the retailer would record an ID number off it, Nohr said.
"It might make the people who are throwing the party think about it more." Asher said. "But I'm not sure it will really stop underage drinking or slow it down. Most people who throw
The law is based on a bill proposed in 1996, which would carry a B misdemeanor with a maximum penalty of six months in jail and a $1,000 fine, Nohr said.
Shawn Smith, manager of Cork and Barrel Wine and Spirits, 1410 Kasold Drive, said that keg registration would benefit liquor stores.
A recommendation to implement a key registration law in Lawrence was made in the report to the city commission by the Joint City-Universities Task Force on Alcohol Abuse Prevention.
"The recommendation was made as a result of a lot of discussion about keg parties and kids getting drunk at them," Nohr said. "We're trying to pin those people down."

"There's a misconception that we make a lot of money from keg sales," Smith said. "Actually, it would help us because a lot of times we don't get all of our equipment back."
Smith wasn't sure that key registration would have much effect on underage drinking.
"I think they need to make some attempt to stop it," Smith said. "But the simple fact is that some adults are always willing to buy for people who are underage."
Mary Horsch, director of communications for the attorney general, said it would be a long time before any of the recommendations became law.
"The task force just introduced them last week," Horsch said. "They will go to committee now. Then they will have to be passed by both houses before going onto the governor."

Midnight-closing debate nears final decision
The Wagon Wheel. 507 W. 14th St., and The Jayhawk Cafe, 1340 Ohio St., may not be open until 2 a.m. for much longer.
The Lawrence City Commission will vote tonight on the ordinance requiring drinking establishments that are nonconforming and located in a residential area, to close at midnight.
At the Jan. 12 meeting, the commission told the bar owners and Oread Neighborhood residents to get together and to try to develop a compromise.
"I don't know what the outcome will be. That will be up to the participants," Corliss said.
Janet Gerstner, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said that both residents and bar owners had agreed not to comment on the situation. She said that communication between the two groups has been ongoing through letters and phone calls.
"The tone has been friendly," Gerster said. "We've been able to be civil to each other."
Corliss said he did not know whether the ordinance would pass.
"Three city commissioners asked for it to be put on the agenda tonight," Corliss said. "So there may be three votes for it."

Man moons KU student in parking lot of bar
A KU student was mooned by a man in the parking lot of The Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th, after the student told the man that he had reported him for urinating in public, according to a Lawrence Police report.
The student went to his apartment in the 1400 block of Ohio Street and called police, said Officer Matt Sarna of the Lawrence Police Department.
The student was walking home with his fiancée around 1:50 a.m. Jan. 30 when they saw the man urinating in the parking lot.
When the student returned to the Wheel to tell management about the man, the student saw the man and confronted him. Then the man mooned him
Police arrived and took a report, but no charges were brought against the man.
Lawrence residents robbed at gunpoint
A Lawrence man and woman were walking together toward her apartment in the 2400 block of Meirose Lane when they were robbed by three men at gunpoint at 12:14 a.m. Jan 29, said Officer Matt Sarna of the Lawrence Police Department.
One of the robbers hit the man on the head with a handgun during the robbery. The men took the woman's purse.
The man who was struck with the handgun received minor injuries and was treated at the scene.
Cops find missing signs in Lawrence man's yard
Police didn't have to look hard to solve the mystery of the missing "No Parking" signs.
The signs, which have been missing since last week, were found early Saturday morning staked in the front yard of a Lawrence man in the 1,800 block of Missouri Street, according to a KU Public Safety Office report.
When police asked the man if he had placed the signs in his yard, he said that he had been intoxicated the night before and couldn't remember.
He said it was likely that some of his friends had placed them there as a joke, the report said.
-Katie Burford
Police took the signs and gave the resident a verbal warning but did not charge him with theft.
Discussion to highlight women, power issues
The semester's first Diversity Dialogue, "Breaking the Mold! Exploring Stereotypes of Women & Power," will take place from 7 to 9 tonight at the Kansas Room in the Kansas Union.
A flier advertising the event mistakenly stated that the dialogue would be at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
A panel of four KU students will lead the discussion.
"They are going to discuss their experiences being women in leadership positions," said Tammi Lewis, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs and organizer of the event.
The event is sponsored by the KU Coalition Against Racism & Discrimination, the All-Scholarship Hall Council and the Multicultural Resource Center
Diversity Dialogues are held on the first Tuesday of the month in the Kansas Union.
Next month's meeting will be devoted to stereotypes of indigenous people.
Fall break, intersession move toward approval
A revised calendar proposal that would include a two-day fall break and two-week intercession will come before the Senate Executive Committee this afternoon.
Since spring of 1998, several fall break plans have been proposed. Problems have arisen from attempts to include a two-week intersession during winter break at Provost David Shulenburger's request and from a conflict between commencement and Memorial Day weekends.
The newest proposal accommodates both concerns, said Carol Holstead,
associate professor of journalism and member of the Calendar Committee. Students would have two weeks off to study abroad or take short courses after Jan. 1, and graduation ceremonies would end by Memorial Day.
mobiles would be encouraged.
The Board of Regents has requested that member institutions submit academic calendars for 2002 to 2004 by March 1, said Bill Tsutsui, assistant professor of history and chairman of the Calendar Committee.
The proposed plan maintains 150 days of class and includes a five-day spring break and no classes on state holidays.
Finals week would be reduced from six days to five days and final examination periods shortened from three hours to 2 1/2 hours.
SenEx will review the proposal at 3 p.m. today at the Regents Room in the chancellor's office.

Clinton reveals budget plans for year 2000
WASHINGTON — Ushering in the new millennium with the promise of huge federal surpluses, President Clinton unveiled on Monday a $1.77 trillion budget for the year 2000 that would buttress Social Security and bestow billions on everything from troops to teachers.
Republicans immediately vowed to rework much of it. Staking out this year's political battlefield, they insisted that hundreds of billions of the $2.41 trillion in surpluses Clinton envisions during the next decade should be returned to Americans in tax-rate cuts.
But Clinton exulted that after three decades of unremitting deficits, the mountains of money give Washington "a special obligation" to address problems gnawing at the country.
Lewinsky questioned by Senate members
WASHINGTON — House prosecutors and the White House legal team questioned Monica Lewinsky under oath yesterday in a deposition for President Clinton's impeachment trial that lasted about five hours. The questioning, conducted privately at a hotel, concluded at midafternoon.
Meanwhile, Clinton's lawyer renewed complaints in court that Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr was violating grand jury secrecy laws on a separate matter.
"This office has no desire to inject itself into the constitutional process under way in the Senate," Starr said, reacting to a New York Times report Sunday that his office had concluded it could indict the president while he was in office even if the Senate did not remove him.
Presidential lawyer David Kendall said he was taking legal action against Starr concerning the week-end story.

Members curb listserv abuse
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Members of the Student Senate University Affairs committee agreed to refrain from launching personal attacks and using profanity on the committee's listserv last week.
Aaron Profitf, University Affairs vice chairman and listserv administrator, explained the guidelines regulating communication on the listserv at the committee meeting last Wednesday.
Proffit said the guidelines, which were implemented at the beginning of the semester, encouraged free expression by allowing senators to post messages on the listserv without worrying about rude responses.
"People were using language that was harmful to the inherent democracy of the listserv. It wasn't conducive to discussion," he said. "The guidelines allow people who are not really into the rhetoric of it all to discuss issues."
The guidelines prohibit the gratuitous use of profanity and personal attacks. The policy limits discussion on the listserv to matters pertinent to University of Kansas affairs or issues that spring from those discussions. The guidelines also call for limits on overly partisan postings.
Proffitt said he wanted senators to post messages that were constructive and current instead of destructive and backward-looking. He said that a blatant violation would warrant removal from the listserv and a borderline violator would receive a warning.
The University Affairs listserv is separate from the Senate listserv, which is used to post messages about upcoming legislation, meetings and other information concerning Senate as a whole. There is also a Senate discussion listserv on which senators discuss other Senate issues.
Scott Kaiser, student body vice president and Senate listserv administrator, said that any student could join the listservs but that discussion should be limited to issues pertinent to Senate. He said that there were no rules for the Senate listserv but that it was self-disciplinary because membership was voluntary.
"The guidelines are not limiting the expression of ideas," he said. "They are just making sure that people do it in a civil manner."
Luke Pfannentiel, University Affairs chairman, said that there had not been many problems on the listserv this semester but that setting guidelines was a good idea.
Dion Jones, holdover senator, posted a message containing a profane personal attack in response to another senator's message last week. He said that he did not regret posting the message because the other senator's message was unnecessarily offensive.
Jones canceled his subscription to the listserv after the incident. He said that his frustration with Senate's passive approach toward student issues played a part in his use of profanity.
African trip promotes exchanges
By Kristi Reimer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway returned from Senegal, West Africa, this weekend impressed with the Africans' dedication to education and determined to look for ways to expand exchange programs.
Kansan staff writer
"It makes you aware of how unquenchable is the desire for knowledge and the desire to learn." Hemenway said yesterday. "You can't go to an African university without being impressed with the commitment to teaching and learning in conditions that are much less well-funded."
Hemenway visited the University Gaston Berger de Saint Louis, which the university of Kansas is affiliated with through a U.S. Information Agency Linkage Grant, and the University Cheikh Anta Diop in Dakar.
Hemenway said a highlight of the trip was being named a "Commander of the Order of the Lion" by the Senegalese government, which bestows the title on honored foreign visitors.
He said that after meeting with the rectors of the universities in Senegal, that he was convinced there would be more opportunities for student and faculty exchanges.
"I want to talk to people in African and African-American studies about how we can continue to make the exchange successful," he said.

But the grant that established the connection is terminal, and the University

will have to find other sources of funding.
"The understanding is, we'll give you the money to get started; now it's up to you to continue it," Hemenway said.
Cheryl Lester, associate professor of American studies and English.
spent five weeks in Senegal in the summer of 1908.
She said her experience in West Africa, where most of the slave outposts were located, particularly relevant to her teaching of African-American literature.
"People tend to believe that African-American history began on this continent with slavery," Lester said. "But African slaves came to this continent with a history of thousands of years behind them."
She said she related her experiences in Senegal to her work in the classroom and encouraged her students to study African culture and travel.
She said the continuation of the University's relationship with the University de Saint Louis was very important.
"There is so much we can do for what is only the second university in Senegal," Lester said. "It is very difficult for people from Senegal to get visas to leave the country. Getting visitors is a significant way for people to learn about what it's like to live here."

Military pressure, strong policy imperative for handling Hussein
the Clinton administration must keep military pressure on Iraq and formulate a strong policy that has its goal the removal of Saddam Hussein.
The killing of 11 Iraqi civilians on Jan. 25 has brought U.S. policy toward Iraq into question. The death of these people was a tragedy. Whenever someone is killed, we should feel a sense of loss. This is true whether the life in question was soldier or civilian, Iraqi or American.
Although these deaths are tragic, it also is tragic that they will be used by opponents of military force as a reason for the United States to remove pressure from Iraq.
These 11 casualties pale in comparison to the 2,500 political prisoners, thousands of Iranians and Kurdish rebels who have been killed by Hussein's government. We cannot overlook the Iraqis killed years ago by Husein's poison gas attacks.
The U.S. planes with the errant missiles that killed 11 were protecting no-fly zones established to protect Kurds and Shiite Muslims, who Hussein was trying to eliminate after the Gulf War.
Since Dec. 16, U.S. and British aircraft have been attacking Iraqi targets, first during Operation Desert Fox and now in response to Iraqi missile attacks on U.S. forces. After a month and a half of almost daily attacks, only 11 civilians have died.
The continuation of military pressure is essential to U.S. security interests. Iraq has an active missile program as well as advanced chemical, biological and nuclear weapons programs.
Civilian deaths not enough to dissuade U.S. presence in the Persian Gulf.
Rod Burton, a senior United Nations weapons inspector, who has worked in Iraq since 1991, said Iraq still could produce significant amounts of biological weapons within six months and significant amounts of chemical weapons in a year or two.
The cease-fire agreement signed after the Gulf War allows the Iraqi to possess short-range missiles.
Burton said the Iraqis still had some Scud missiles. They could obtain longer-range missiles from the Russians and Chinese, who already have sold advanced missile technology to rogue states, including Iran and North Korea.
The Iraqi missile program has been set back significantly by a combination of U.S. air strikes and constant monitoring, but it could get back on track quickly.
This, along with Hussein's hatred for the United States, makes Iraq a threat to U.S. national security and a definite threat to neighboring countries and Israel.
This makes containing Iraq a vital goal in the United States foreign policy. The goal requires supporting U.N. weapons inspections.
Hussein repeatedly has ejected
U. N. weapons inspectors from Iraq. The agreements he signed after the Gulf War and the agreement he signed in November requires him to allow "immediate, unconditional and unrestricted access" for U.N. inspectors. The only way to get him to comply is with the credible threat of military force.
The administration should evaluate the use of an embargo to cause an overthrow of Hussein. Historically, embargoes are most effective when used to get specific concessions not when used to change a whole system of government. However, removing the embargo against Iraq would allow Hussein to claim victory and possibly weaken efforts to revive the damaged inspection program.
Critics of the embargo point to hungry Iraqis and ask the embargo to be lifted for humanitarian reasons. They should be aware that Hussein has warehouses full of food and medicine that he refuses to distribute. He has rejected offers by Arab nations to provide humanitarian aid to the Iraqi people.
The United States even has proposed that Iraq be allowed to sell unlimited amounts of oil to buy more food and medicine. Iraq rejected this proposal because it did not include ending the arms inspections.
Hussein needs starving Iraqis; they are political tools to him.
rine United States must continue to take the lead in containing Iraq.

Diversity requirement opens too many doors
of the United States" be added to the current general education requirements for all students who receive a B. A. or B. G. S. degree from the college. The committee proposes to define "diversity" broadly.

"Courses that deal with specific U. S. populations and cultures; e.g. racial, ethnic, sexual, religious, age, disabled, class — represent one form of the requirement; courses that focus on specific social
movements and political forces" also are appropriate. The committee assumes "that courses fulfilling the requirement will address issues of inequality, power and justice."
The committee has presented and defended this proposed requirement at two meetings of the College Assembly this fall. At both meetings, the committee proposal was criticized because the scope of the proposal was unclear. Such criticism has apparently not deterred the committee.
Surely it is not unreasonable to suppose that the proposal means what it says. Disability, says the committee, is one kind of diversity. Presumably, courses in the cultures of the deaf, the blind, the developmentally disabled, the demented and the mentally ill will satisfy the requirement.
One must suppose that the spirit of inclusivity will be as opposed to discrimination against nonhumans as it is to discrimination against those of other races. Courses in the social lives of bees, ants or gray wolves ought to count.
Age, according to the committee, belongs under the heading of diversity. Presumably, a course in the social lives of preschool children will count to satisfy the requirement. This should gladden the hearts of the Department of Human Development and Family: Life.
For the same reason, a course on the oppression of fetuses also will count to satisfy the requirement. Such a course would present a special opportunity for an instructor to focus on how some of these very young human beings are oppressed.
The study of religious groups presumably satisfies the diversity requirement. Will a course in Amish culture count? What about Pentecostal culture? What about monastic culture? What about a course in Puritan culture? Catholicism? Presbyterianism? Episcopalianism? A course in which there is discussion of the diversity between high church Episcopalians and low church Episcopalians seems fully in the spirit of this requirement. Perhaps the sin of using one's dessert fork for one's salad could receive special emphasis.
What about offering a course in extremist right wing or left wing groups? A course about the American Nazi Party or the religious right might be quite appealing to those of a particular political persuasion.
Even the above suggestions do not fully reflect the inclusivity that motivates this proposed diversity requirement. Shouldn't a course in Mafia culture count? What about a study of the social groups involved in the manufacture of pornographic videos? Such a course could be extremely popular if accompanied with visual aids.
There are more attractive possibilities. A course in Colorado diversity might seem much more exciting to many, especially if field work on the ski slopes were possible. Hawaiian diversity anyone?
There are other possibilities. A TV promotion for the University claims that a bus trip for KU faculty and staff promoted knowledge of Kansas diversity. Perhaps the diversity requirement could be satisfied by such a bus trip.
No doubt those who favor the diversity requirement will be irritated by the above paragraphs. They will think that I am making fun of the proposal. They are entirely correct.
This diversity proposal has been criticized in the past on the grounds that it embraces far more courses than any sane person would want to require. Nevertheless, the same proposal is being presented to the College Assembly today.
Perhaps we should hope that the proposal passes. Sometimes university life can be grim: students can receive low grades, and faculty can get turned down for grants. Opportunities for levity should not be discarded lightly.

As soon as we started moving, I saw the police car's lights come on.
"Unbelievable," I thought. "What did I do?" Immediately, I thought of Edna Buchanan, The Miami Herald crime reporter for more than 20 years. I was reading one of her books at the time — The Corpse Had A Familiar Face. She says no better human being exists than a good cop, and no worse creature than a bad one. I was just wishing that the officer who pulled me over was included in the first category.
It made a lot of sense because the police car got to the stop sign first.
"He is telling us to go," my friend said.
I held the wheel and waited. My friend and I were making a list of things we were not doing wrong. We were not speeding, drinking in the vehicle or driving under the influence of alcohol. I couldn't help being nervous, though.

I understand that Lawrence is a college town and that the police must have a lot of problems with students drinking and driving, especially during weekends.

Spirit squads suffer unfair shake
But if someone asks something in a sarcastic way, an affirmative answer is expected. If a policeman suggests I'm drunk because my lights are off, that is disturbing. He or she may investigate whether I'm sober, but there's a thin line between protecting the community and reprehending people without evidence.
The police officer just gave me a warning, but I also got a message from him: If you are driving in Lawrence with your lights off on a Friday night, chances are you are drunk. I don't know what kind of method this is, but it's wrong if it qualifies me as a potential suspect.
A man in a uniform stuck his head into my car and asked, smiling, "Anything to drink tonight?"
The actual problem: my lights were on.
I was not nervous anymore, but I was really shocked. A cop has the right to pull me over if my car lights are off, but that does not imply I am under the influence of alcohol. The connection from "lights off" to "alcohol" did not exist.
I answered negatively, and the cop said. "Never mind. I don't smell alcohol here anyway."
I would like to thank Jamie Patterson for her column about the lack of respect that our spirit squads are receiving from the Athletics Department this year. I feel that the spirit squads are an intricate part of the University of Kansas. They should never be overlooked as just a mere support system.
The spirit squads do more than just the athletic events.

For them to not only go to school, practice, go to games, go to outside appearances, somewhere find the time to study, and try to keep a job, it is only fair that spirit squads members receive the same luxuries that all athletes already receive and exploit.

GMAT adds computer grading
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
For people who think that the essay graders for national tests are indifferent machines, by Feb. 10, they'll be partially right.
The essays used in the Graduate Management Admissions Test, which is the test that business students take to get into graduate school, will be in part graded by computers starting in eight days.
The essay still will be graded by a person. The computer will replace the second professor who also grades the test. It will check for items such as key words and phrases, spelling, grammar and transitional words.
Dave Collins, associate director of master's programs for the KU School of Business, said that although the computer grading was a departure, it was not a huge difference.
*T恤衫 is not toalily out of line with*
*The t衣 is doily doing it with the*
*sauce.
Collins said that he felt comfortable with the new situation because there was a safety net if needed.
If the evaluator's and the computer's grades are separated by more than one point on the 0-6 point grading scale, the essay is sent to another professor who assigns a final grade.
"I feel like they still need to keep some
human touch in there." Collins said.
Other members of the team were also in the system.
Richard F. Hardin, chairman of the English department, said that a computer might trip up on some typical problems.
"It just seems to me that on the whole computers can tell you how many words you have, but computers can't even handle sentence fragments or subject-verb agreement." Hardin said. "I think it's silly."
Hardin thought that computers had a place in English classrooms but not with the grading.
"I think you can use computers for teaching writing but evaluating it? Maybe it'll happen someday, but as far as I know, there's no one who can that right now," he said.
Michelle Eodice, assistant director of writing consulting, which administers the Writer's Roosts, said that computers already were being used to evaluate English students at other universities.
She said that some schools placed students in appropriate level English classes by using a computer to check essays.
Eodice thought that the program could work, depending on the ability of the creator.
"I think it's just like anything else that's programmed," she said. "It's only as good as the programmer."
Lettie Ebbs, Pittsburg senior in business, will present the report in take-
GMAT eventually but was concerned about the computer grading.
Ebb compared the grading program to the grammar checking device in Microsoft Word.
"It doesn't always look for the right things," she said.
Trent Anderson, a spokesman with Kaplan Educational Centers, which offers preparatory classes for the GMAT, said that students still would need to worry about audience.
They would have to make sure that they wrote with both the professor and the computer in mind.
KAPLAN GMAT TIPS
Tips from Kaplan Education Centers on taking the GMAT, the business graduate school test.
Decide on a structure before taking the test.
Outline before you write your essay.
Consider points made by other great essays on the same topic and attack unwarranted assumptions.
Use transitional phrases such as "since," "therefore" and "for example," so the computer sees a structured argument.
Use synonyms to demonstrate a strong vocabulary.
Be very careful to avoid spelling and grammatical errors.
- Remember that a person still will grade the essay, so creativity, humor, tone, nuance and forceful writing are important.
New printers to decrease library noise
Bv Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
Watson Library patrons now can avoid the slow print jobs and the frequent paper jams of reference room printers.
Ten computers were hooked up to a laser printer during winter break. Before then, database downloads and information from the Internet had to go through problematic dot matrix printers.
"It's going to be a lot better for everyone," said Faye Christenberry. Watson reference librarian. "It should be nicer for patrons because it's a lot quieter and the quality of the print is much better. It means less maintenance for us. Before, we were spending a lot of time fixing jams."
For the time being, the laser printing is free.
"We're trying to make sure the procedures are working," said Julia Rholes, assistant dean for information services. "We don't want to charge until everything is running smoothly."
Following the trial period, a double-sided, laser-printed page will cost 10 cents. KU students and faculty will have to use their KUIDs for laser printing, Rholes said.
Rholes also said patrons still would have the option of using dot matrix printers. They will continue to be free.
Students expressed mixed views about being charged for laser printing.
"It's worth it," said Steve Kaup,
Lawrence junior. "You're paying for
the quality."
Cost was a factor for Patricia Siders, Lawrence senior.
"I probably wouldn't print off the laser printer because it would be a waste of money," Siders said. "The dot matrix printer works well enough for research purposes."
"After we're convinced it works well enough in Watson, we will add another printer there and a printer in Anschutz," said John Miller, assistant dean for information technology.
The introduction of laser printing in Watson is a preview of what is to come in various other libraries on campus.
There are plans to add laser printers in the Art and Architecture Library, the Spahr Engineering Library and the Music Library later in the semester, Miller said.

Rowdy Denver fans clash with police during party
DENVER — Police marched in riot gear and tossed tear gas at fans who celebrated the Broncos' Super Bowl victory by turning over cars and benches, lighting bonfires and breaking windows.
The Associated Press
"It was like following the path of a tornado," said Andrew Hudson, a spokesman for Mayor Wellington Webb. "It was just a really ugly scene by a lot of obnoxious people who were drunk. We are lucky no one got killed."
fans milling around Civic Center Park awaiting the arrival of the team. The Broncos arrived at Denver International Airport just after noon, two hours before their victory parade and rally.
There were 20 arrests in Denver and damage was estimated at $160,000. Hudson said. He added that windows at historic Brown Palace were broken and trash Dumpsters were set on fire.
It was far quieter yesterday, with
firecrackers. When the estimated crowd of 1,000 would not disperse in Larimer Square, police threw tear gas canisters at taunting youths and pounded their shields with clubs. Some youths threw bottles at the officers.
PAC 10
Police had predicted problems in rowdy fans, based on trouble
that erupted in 1988, when the Broncos won their first Super Bowl.
This year, they blocked access to downtown and banned parking along some streets.
In several spots downtown, officers on horseback kept crowds in check. People waved special newspaper editions, climbed poles and waved Bronco pennants.
Bars were havens of orange and blue. After the 34-19 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, many fans took their drinks and celebrations outdoors.
Last year about 30,000 people gathered downtown after the Broncos beat Green Bay in the Super Bowl. There were more than 25 arrests and 50 people were overcome by tear gas after vandals smashed shop windows, overturned cars and set fires in Larimer Square.
Drug summit overshadowed by scandals
The Associated Press
LAUSANNE, Switzerland — The International Olympic Committee, scrambling to keep its drug summit from being overshadowed by the Olympic corruption scandals, ran into disputes Monday about key issues in the anti-doping fight.
On the eve of what was billed as a watershed meeting in the war against performance-enhancing
drugs, differences emerged about the structure of a proposed international drug agency, the definition of doping and the severity of sanctions.
The IOC executive
OLYMPIC GAMES
board, meanwhile, met under tight secrecy to discus the twin crises of corruption and drugs.
In action directly linked to the bribery scandal, the board started the IOC's first ethics commission and code of conduct.
Director general Francois Carrard said the ethics panel would police the general conduct of IOC members and their business practices.
He said the five-member panel would include three officials from outside the IOC.
A major dispute is expected about the proposed agency for coordinating the worldwide drug fight.
The creation of an Olympic Movement Anti-Doping Agency is a centerpiece of the conference. Among other things, the agency would be responsible for instituting random, out-of-competition drug tests.
Olympic officials were divided on whether the agency should be run by the IOC or have a more independent status.
IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch said Sunday he would oversee the agency as president or chairman. And he proposed that the IOC medical commission chairman, Prince Alexandre de Merode, should run the agency on a day-to-day basis.
Critics contend De Merode has been ineffective in combating doping.
There were calls for the drug agency to be fully independent. Critics claim the body would lack credibility if it's run by the IOC, reeling from the worst corruption crisis in its 105-year history.
Carrard said no final decision had been made on the issue.
Falcon safety faces solicitation charges
The Associated Press
MIAMI — Eugene Robinson spoke with his usual passion. For the first time, though, Robinson faced a skeptical audience.
After a Super Bowl that went terribly wrong, the Atlanta Falcons' Pro Bowl safety paraded in front of a horde of media Sunday to discuss his arrest on charges of soliciting an undercover police officer for sex the night before the biggest game of the season.
It was one part denial, one part confessional, a series of conflicting messages from a deeply religious man who always had seemed so firm in his beliefs.
"I really believe and strongly believe I will be found innocent in this deal." Robinson said. "However, I'm not righteous in this deal."
He apologized to his family, his teammates and the entire organization for causing such a shocking distraction the night before the Falcons appeared in the NFL title game for the first time in their 33-year history.
The Falcons lost 34-19 to the Denver Broncos, with Robinson burned on the game's biggest play — an 80-yard touchdown pass to Rod Smith.
"I know a lot of people are saying that I'm just another hypocritical Christian," Robinson said. "I deserve that."
Falcons coach Dan Reeves allowed Robinson to start the Super Bowl, even though the player admitted that he didn't
sleep at all the night before the game. He was consolled in his hotel room by a group of teammates
including Cornelius Bennett, Ray Buchanan and William White — and spent five hours in prayer.
"It was a little distracting, but I don't think it was a major factor," Reeves said. "My major concern was whether he was going to be ready to play, and he said he was. I thought he did a good job."
Robinson added, "I was extremely focused on the game today. It didn't affect my play because it was pretty much therapeutic."
The Falcons defense took the field just more than five minutes into the game, and Robinson broke up Denver's first play: a pass from John Elway that was intended for Terrell Davis.
But Robinson was beaten by Smith down the middle of the field on the long touchdown pass, giving the Broncos a 17-3 lead late in the first half. In the third quarter, Robinson broke his left pinkie try to tackle terrell Davis, limiting his effectiveness the rest of the way.
A few hours before his arrest, Robinson was honored with the Bart Starr Award by the religious group Athletes in Action. Balloting is conducted among NFL players to select the person who displays "high moral character."
Robinson, who played in the last two Super Bowls with Green Bay, is the NFL's career leader among active players with 53 interceptions, including four this season.

Doubles play solidifies team
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
Chemistry has been the key to success for the Kansas men's tennis team this season, helping it achieve an 8-1 record.
In singles matches, the Jayhawks have seen some ups and downs, but doubles play has provided a consistent force the team can rely on.
"We've been doing the same things we've done the whole time I've been the coach," coach Mark Riley said. "The biggest thing is that the guys like playing together. They are very close."
At No. 1 doubles, Ed Dus and Luis Uribe have teamed up to form the No. 15 team in the country this season. They are 1-1 going into the Rolex
Indoors tournament this weekend in Dallas, where they will compete against the top doubles teams in the nation.
"We've been playing together for awhile now, and we know how to play off each other," Dus said. "We just go out and do battle together."
At No. 2 doubles, Kenny Powell and Alex Barragan also have produced their share of victories, accumulating a 3-0 record.
Though the two haven't played many matches together, Barragan said they were starting to become more familiar with one another and were developing a strong game.
"He returns well, and I'm serving well," Barragan said. "Once we improve our volleys,
we'll be very tough to beat.
Kenny has a lot of experience,
and that's making the difference because we can make the important points."
The doubles combinations have been strengthened by the December addition of Rodrigo Echagaray, a six-time national juniors champion of Mexico. He has combined with Quentin Blakeney to form a strong No.3 doubles team.
"Rodrigo is an excellent doubles player," Dus said. "He and Quentin are one of the top No. 3 doubles teams in the country."
One of the strengths of the team is its depth.
In the first match of the season against Louisville, Uribe stayed home with the chicken pox. Barragan and Powell won
in their debut at No. 1 singles, defeating Chris Steel and Brent McCombe8-4.
Echagarray teamed with Dus at No. 2 doubles to defeat Kane Easter and Alex Sievertens 8-5.
Bryan Maier was added to the lineup to compete in No. 3 doubles with Blakeney, and they also won 8-6.
Though it is still early in the season, the team's doubles combinations have provided a steady backbone to build on as it continues to search for consistency in singles matches.
"Our teams are good enough that they can compete with top teams, and anything could happen," Dus said. "Mentally, that's tough for an opponent to overcome. In tennis, the mental edge is a big advantage."

Women's tennis team loses to nationally ranked teams
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan Sportswriter
The Kansas women's tennis team dropped two dual meets last weekend as they lost to Duke and William and Mary.
Duke, ranked second in the nation, and William and Mary, ranked tenth, both have nationally-ranked singles and doubles players.
Kansas lost to Duke 9-0 on Saturday and lost to William and Mary 6-3 on Sunday.
On Saturday, Kansas' singles and doubles were both shut out against the Blue Devils.
"We started out slow, but we did a good job of not letting the first
set of singles bother us." Kansas coach Jenny Garrity said.
Kris Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior, lost her singles match to Duke's Vanessa Webb 8.3, 6-1.
Sell is ranked 25th, while Webb is currently ranked second in the country.
"I was a little intimidated at first," Sell said. "I made a few mistakes, but I thought I could beat her."
Singles results at Duke were not available at press time.
Sell and Cheryl Malliah, North Longwood, Fla., freshman, lost to Duke's Webb and Karen Goldstein. 8-5.
Kansas second double's team of
Brooke Chiller, Warrnambool, Australia, junior, and Julia Sidorova, Riga, Latvia, junior, were defeated by Kristin Sanderson and Erica Biro. 8-3.
No. 3 doubles Christi Wagenaar, Westville, South Africa, freshman, and Lisa Malliaah, North Longwood, Fla., freshman, lost to Kathy Sell and Brooke Siebel, 8-2.
Kathy Sell is the younger sister of Kris Sell and Jenny Garrity.
"I think it was harder on Jenny because she had to coach against Kathy," Sell said. "Kathy and I just focused on our individual matches."
Against William and Mary on Sunday, Kansas won three singles matches and was shut out again in doubles.
The three upperclassmen, including Sell, clinched their singles titles for Kansas.
Sell rebounded from Saturday's defeat, beating Delphine Troch of William and Marv. 5-7, 6-3, 7-6.
Despite six double faults early on and a shaky forehand, Sell overcame a first set loss and defeated Troch.
"She was a really tough fighter," Sell said. "The match could have gone either way."
In the No. 2 singles match,
Chiller upset 34th-ranked Carolin van Rossum, 5-7, 7-5, 6-3.
Monica Sekulov, Hamersley.
Australia, sophomore won at No. 4 singles, 0.6, 6-2, 7-6.
No. 3 singles player Cheryl Mallaiah lost her match 6,1- 6,1.
Sidorova and Wagenaar lost their matches 6-0, 6-0, and 6-3, 5-7, 6-4, respectively.
"I think we were well-prepared for the meets," Sell said. "It might have been better to play a few matches before though."
Kansas doubles lost 3-0.
Despite the team's inexperience, Kansas played well, Sell said.
"The younger players played awesome," she said. "I was very proud of them after Duke. They gave us a lot of confidence."
Vital surgery gives hope, new hip to golf legend
The Associated Press
BOSTON — Jack Nicklaus left the hospital today with a new ceramic hip and hopes of playing golf again and dancing at his son's wedding.
"Postoperative recovery to date has been right on track," said Benjamin Bierbaum, the physician who performed the surgery Wednesday at New England Baptist Hospital.
"My wife told me the one thing I'm going to do is dance at my son's wedding," the 59-year-old golf great said, referring to the Feb. 20 marriage of his youngest son Michael. "Other than that, I'm going to do nothing for six weeks."
Nicklaus will miss the Masters Tournament in April for the first time in 40 years and possibly the U.S. Open Championship in June, but doctors have said he should be able to play competitively again.
"I don't have any illusions, at the age of 59 or 60, of coming back and competing with the Tiger Woodes and David Duvalus." Nicklaus said.
Winner of a record 18 majors, Nicklaus used a rigorous exercise routine to try and avoid replacing his degenerative left hip but finally yielded.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 2).
Money is your theme this year. Invest now and your future will be secure. If you don't know how, don't worry. All you need in February is the general intention. The summer looks pretty uneventful. In August, a partner lures you into a new adventure. You'll be paying for it in September together. In October and November, push for an advancement in your job, or get a better job altogether. Play with friends in December, and try something a little outrageous.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
There's a way to solve that nagging feeling of not having done enough. Your problem is that you're not quite sure what you've already accomplished. Add it all up and give yourself due credit. If there's anything lacking, you have time to add it.
Taurus (April 20-May 20); Today is a 6.
Your sweetheart needs a lot of your attention today. This could be your mate or a child. This person is getting pressed to perform above where he or she is used to playing. Your love and coaching will be much appreciated.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5. There's one hassle after another, and just when you're ready to give up, a new idea pops to mind. Somebody with a different point of view is more likely to spot the solution to the problem than you are.
Cancer June 22-July 22]: Todav is a 6.
Cancer (June 22- July 22) Today is a 6.
Today, you want everything to be perfect, and you're willing to go the extra mile to make sure that happens. This is your opportunity to get things the way you want them. Apply yourself now, and you'll have time to relax later in perfect surroundings.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 6.
Looks like you could uncover another source of revenue without going to a lot more work. It could be another way to sell something you make. If you're not already in business for yourself, this would be a good day to find a skill and start to market it.
Virgin (Aug. 25, Sep. 22): Today is a G.
Looks like something that happened at work is sending lots of attention your way. You are your own worst critic. Although people are telling you that you've done a great job, you can see everything that's not perfect. Just keep it to yourself.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
You just don't feel like talking to anybody and that's unusual for you. You enjoy explaining things to other people most of the time but probably not today. If you decide to hide in your cave for a little while, don't feel bad. It happens to everybody.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Today, people are going to be asking you to tell them what to do. You really love it when that happens, so enjoy the people who will do it with you and ignore the ones who won't.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Looks like something you've learned recently will open new doors for you. Be watching for an opportunity, and guess what? It'll look like a way to provide service for others. When you spot it, move quickly.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
You could have a technical breakthrough today.
You're not stupid, although you might feel that way when you're learning something new. Keep pushing.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6.
Aquatix Jun. 20- Feb. 18). Today is a b.
Money is a major theme today. The more nippies you can pinch, the longer you'll stay in business.
Instead of cramping your style, frugality could spur your creativity.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
2
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Foss the ball to your teammate today and let him or
her run for the touchdown. The attention is going to
be diverted to somebody else, no matter what you'n
doing.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The millionaire rapper who thought he had enough of a game to start a second career in the NBA has been waived by the Charlotte Hornets.
Master P, also known as Percy Miller, was one of two players waived yesterday by the Hornets. The team also waived guard Melvin Watson, a rookie from South Carolina.
Rapper Master P waived by Charlotte Hornets
Until recently, Miller played for the CBA's Fort Wayne Fury. He was invited to the Homets' camp after Tyre Davis, father of Hornets rookie Ricky Davis, talked to Charlotte general manager Bob Bass and the coaches.
Miller averaged just one point and one assist in Charlotte's two preseason losses to the Atlanta Hawks.

MLB chooses Seattle for 2001 All-Star game
SEATTLE — After a 22-year absence, the All-Star game is returning to Seattle.
The 2001 Major League All-Star game will be played at Safeco Field, commissioner Bud Selig and American League president Gene Budig said yesterday.
The Mariners are scheduled to move into their new retractable-roof stadium July 15 after opening the season in the Kingdome, site of the 1979 All-Star game.
The snow followed a week of spring like weather, in which the world's best racers trained while basking in sunshine.
There was a brief break in the cloud cover in early afternoon, drawing a rear from the packed grandstands surrounding the finish area. But the break was short lived and another bank of clouds moved in, dooming the race.
The game will be held in the 47,000seat ballpark sometime in July 2001, the exact date won't be determined until next year.
Snow began falling in the Vail Valley at sunrise and with only intermittent breaks, continued into the afternoon. With only a couple hours of dependable light remaining, the race jury decided to postone the race.
A crowd of 58,905 watched the National League win 7-6 in the 50th * All-Star game in 1979.

Home win hopes denied
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
MANHATTAN — The Kansas men's basketball team still has one streak intact. The Jayhawks, who dropped out of The Associated Press top 25 poll for the first time in 144 weeks yesterday, defeated Kansas State 69-46 for the 16th straight time in Manhattan and the 14th straight overall.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said the Jayhawks' dominance in Manhattan — Kansas has won all 11 games played in Bramlage Coliseum — was unbelievable.
"It's hard to comprehend," Williams said. "The streak is going to end someday, and we just try to put it off one more game, Ryan and T.J. wanted to make sure they went 4-0 here, and they passed it on to the other guys in the locker room. It's a great feeling in that locker room, and one of those times you feel really good about."
With the Jayhawks experiencing a subpar season, the Wildcats thought this could be the year to end the losing streak to their in-state rival.
"I stressed to the guys before the game that they thought they can beat us," Williams said. "But they've got to do it on the court. It doesn't make any difference what's in the paper. A lot of people were saying this was the year the streak was going to be broken. We haven't played as well as we'd have liked, but they still needed to do it on the court."
The Wildcats looked like they had a
chance early, when they took an 8-5 lead with 15:23 to play in the first half, but poor shooting and the Jayhawks' tenacious defense sank Kansas State.
Kansas scored seven straight points, taking a 12-8 lead before Wildcat guard Ayone May scored with 10:35 remaining. May connected on a three-pointer at 10:05 to pull K-State to 14-13, but the Jayhawks put together a 9-0 run and stretched the lead to 23-13 with 8:27 remaining in the first half.
Kansas reserve guard Marlon London highlighted the run by scoring five points on a single possession. London hit a three-pointer and had the opportunity for a four-point play when Wildcat guard Cortez Groves fouled him. London missed the free throw, but the Jayhawks got the offensive rebound and London hit a jump shot, completing the possession.
"That five-point stretch gave us a small gap," London said. "The lead just kept going up after that."
The Wildcats responded with a 6-0 run and pulled within four points at 23-19. That was the closest they got the rest of the game.
The Jayhawk defense forced Kansas State into 10 first-half turnovers, including eight steals and held them to 10-of-32 shooting from the field for 31 percent.
"This was our best game defensively since Missouri," Williams said. "We were so much more active on the defensive end, but we also caught K-State on a night that they shot too well."
The halftime intermission didn't cool
down the Jayhawks, as they exploded out of the blocks in the second half by outsourcing the Wildcats 10-2 and extending their lead to 45-24. Kansas guards Ryan Robertson and Jeff Boschee each hit three-pointers during the run in which the Jayhawks connected on 7 of 8 shots from the field.
"We really had a great run early in the second half," Williams said. "We try to get the crowd quiet and see if we can't get them to leave early because the game is already over with, and that's what happened tonight."
Kansas forward Kenny Gregory, who scored a game-high 16 points off the bench, hit two free throws with 8:22 to play, which gave the Jayhawks their biggest lead of the game at 62-38. The Wildcats never got any closer than 20 points the rest of the way as Kansas cruised to its second-straight win. The Wildcats' 46 points were a season low for a Jayhawk opponent, and it was the fewest points scored by Kansas State against Kansas in Manhattan since they were held to 44 points on March 8, 1958.
The Jayhawks received some scoring support from some unexpected places last night, T.J. Pugh, Marlon London and Jeff Carey, who averaged a total of 9.8 points per game, combined for 26 points against Kansas State.
The Jayhawks now have won two in a row after losing three out of their four previous games.

'Hawks win; freshman Carey gets his shot
By Marc Sheforgen
Associate Sports Editor
MANHATTAN — Redshirt freshman Jeff Carey has waited a long time for his moment to shine as more than a practice dummy. Last night, the opportunity arose, and Carey was ready.
Junior forward Lester Earl reagravated an ankle injury and did not play in the Jayhawks 69-46 win against Kansas State, leaving the door open for Carey and junior Ashante Johnson to fill the role of a reserve big man.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that he gave Carey and Johnson each early minutes and then decided that Carey had performed best and would be the man to relieve the starting big men Eric Chenowith and T.J. Pugh for the remainder of the game.
Carey had not played since Kansas' win against
Texas Jan. 18 and had not scored since the win against Texas A&M Jan.2.
naturally, he was a bit nervous when he learned Sunday that he would have a chance at some consistent court time in Manhattan.
"Yeah, I'm always nervous before games," Carey said. "But once I got out there and got up and down the court a few times, I settled down."
Carey hit two of three shots for four first-half points in four minutes. He played four more second-half minutes and connected on his only attempt for a game total of six points.
The minutes may not be impressive and his statistics did not rival the game's leaders, but it is not the statistics that tell Carey's story.
"He was a sparkplug for us," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "He was sensational."
Robertson said that Carey's contributions came
with good decision making and good passes to propel the other offensive stars.
Carey agreed and said that he was most proud of his ability to do the little things — the stuff statistics don't measure.
"I didn't do anything spectacular, I just did the easy stuff," he said.
Chenowith, who lives with Carey, said that he and Carey talked daily about the redshirt freshman's frustrations of not playing. Seeing his friend shine was extra special.
"We know we have a bright future together." Chenowith said. "I just hope he keeps playing well and keeps his head up. He's doing some great things for us."
Carey said he did not know what kind of action he may see in Sunday's game at Colorado. With more than a week of rest, Earl may be ready to reclaim his position.
Kansas falls from Associated Press top 25 for the first time in more than eight years
Struggling Jayhawks take drop in stride focus on rest of year
By Kevin Wilson Kansan sportswriter
In a season full of broken streaks, the Kansas Jayhawks watched another one end yesterday when they dropped out of the Associated Press top 25 poll for the first time since Jan. 21, 1991.
The Jayhawks, who had been in the AP top 25 for 144 consecutive weeks, were ranked No. 22 last week before losing to Nebraska and barely defeating Colorado on Saturday 77-74.
Although the Jayhawks remained in the ESPN/USA Today top 25 poll, they fell three spots to 22. Their omission from the AP Poll ended the third-longest current streak in the top 25.
"It'd be the first time since '91, and that's a long time," said coach Roy Williams. "I'm proud of that."
The Jayhawks have been in free fall after dropping three of their last four games before Saturday's win. Since Jan. 11, the Jayhawks have dropped in consecutive weeks from No. 15, to No. 19, to No. 22 to out of the polls this week.
North Carolina has been in the top 25 for 156 straight weeks, and Kentucky has the second-longest streak with 154.
"We play dumb on the court sometimes,but they are not dumb kids,and they realize this doesn't have anything to do with how we play.It's not going to affect me whatsoever,and I'll be shocked if it's going to affect them."
Despite the Jayhawks fall from the polls,
Roy Williams Men's basketball coach
Williams said it would, he battled this "truly don't think it will affect this team," Williams said. "We play dumb on the court sometimes, but they are not dumb kids, and they realize that this doesn't have anything to do with how we play. It's not going to affect me whatsoever, and I'll be shocked if it's going to affect them."
Williams said it wouldn't bother his team.
Kansas guard Ryan Robertson, who has never played on a Jayhawk team that has not been ranked in the top 25, had mixed feelings about the snub.
"I want to say it's not that big of a deal, but then again you hate to think that this was the team that got us out of the streak," Robertson said. "It's a pretty prestigious streak. There have been a lot of great teams during that streak, and you would hate to think that this was the team that ruined it."
"The rankings and all that stuff mean absolutely nothing." Robertson said. "I think the rankings are mostly for the fans and for you guys to put next to the teams when you write about them."
Going into the season, the Jayhawks had been one of the most dominating teams in the 1990s, not counting the Jayhawks current 15-6 record, Kansas had the most victories in the 1990s, 263-50, and the best winning percentage at 84 percent.
The Jayhawks have been to the Sweet Sixteen six times in the '90s, second only to North Carolina's seven appearances.
Although Robertson was disappointed, he said that he didn't put much weight in the rankings anyway.
"This is the one season that I was afraid it might happen," said Mark Marlin, Hampton, Va., junior. "This is the weakest I've ever seen them, both mentally and physically."
With the loss of two All-Americans, Raef LaFrentz and Paul Pierce, and the teams best three-point threat, Billy Thomas, this year was seen by some as a rebuilding one.
Despite the the Jayhawks lackluster record, Robertson doesn't think that this Kansas team should be counted out just yet.
"The past three years in the NCAA tournament, some of the No.1, No.2 and No.3 seeds haven't even made it to the final four," Robertson said. "The rankings mean very little. We just want to go out and play."
Kansas ranked 22nd following poll absence
The Kansas women's basketball team has begun the slow assent back up the polls, and sophomore Brooke Reves has been the moving force.
The Jayhawks (16-6, 6-3) are now the 22ndranked team in the nation after this week's Associated Press poll was released yesterday morning. The team inched up two spots from 24th last week, after falling out of the top 25 two weeks earlier for the first time this season.
Wednesday's win at Texas and Sunday's home blowout against archrival Kansas State helped boost the Jayhawks' ranking.
Spearheading the improved play has been forward Reves. The sophomore was named Big 12 Conference women's basketball Rookie of the Week yesterday afternoon after scoring a career-high 23 points against K-State Sunday.
By Matt James
Reves averaged 15 points and five rebounds in two games last week. The Big 12 Newcomer-of-the-Year candidate sat out last season after transferring to Kansas from Wichita State but has come on strong this season and leads the team in field goal percentage, shooting 53.3 percent from the field.
"Brooke is a great player," said coach Marian Washington. "She was able to step up this year and contribute. We are delighted for her."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Diversity vote is in the mail
Assembly to cast requirement ballots
By Dan Curry
Kansas staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
A mail ballot will decide the fate of the University's U.S. Diversity Requirement that, if passed, would require future students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences to take a course devoted to issues of diversity.
The College Assembly resolved yesterday to conduct the vote by mailing ballots to each of the members of the assembly, thereby creating the opportunity for greater participation in the decision.
The vote will be concluded by April at the latest, said Rochelle Votaw, graduate student and member of the ad hoc committee for the U.S. Diversity Requirement.
About 70 people attended yesterday afternoon's meeting.
The proposed requirement would add a class to an undergraduate's general
"Such classes are offered in many cases, but they are not required," said Anna Neill, associate professor of English and member of the ad hoc committee. "It is perfectly possible to complete a B.A. or B.G.S. without having had any exposure to discussion of the kinds of issues that the diversity requirement foregrounds."
education requirement. Students would choose the class from a list of courses that dealt specifically with racial, ethnic, sexual, religious, age, disabled or class themes.
Sally Frost Mason, dean of the col.
lege, said that in a random survey of 100 graduating seniors, 82 reported that they had taken a class that would have fulfilled the diversity requirement.
Neill said that with this requirement, students would have the advantage of having taken at least one course during their undergraduate careers that dealt with issues affecting minority populations in the United States.
"This exposure will better equip students to be informed citizens of a

Urban Outfitters
New chain may dress up downtown
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
Clothes shopping in Lawrence soon may take on a new dimension. Urban Outfitters, which specializes in clothes for 18- to 30-year-olds, will move into the building now occupied by Varsity Theaters, 1015 Massachusetts St.
Wade McDeVitt, the real estate consultant for Urban Ouffitters, said the company was close to executing a lease with Jayhawk Equities L.L.C., owner of the property.
Sarah Goldstein, St. Paul, Minn., freshman, said she was excited that Urban Outfitters might come to Lawrence.
The store offers men's and women's fashion apparel, jeans, T-shirts, vintage clothing, intimate wear and other accessories.
Urban Outfitters, which has about 30 stores nationwide, are established where there is a high concentration of students and recent graduates. McDeVitt said.
"I love that store," Goldstein said. "It's a good college store. Coming from out of town, my only options for shopping have been Abercrombie and Gap."
"There is some work the landlord needs to get done before we start renovation." McDeVitt said. "We hope to start March 1."
McDeVitt said he could not predict when the store would open but that he thought it would be sometime in late summer.
"Our clothes are for people who care about being different from the masses and want to know they can find stuff here that they can't find anywhere
else," McDeVitt said.
Carrie Giffen, Prairie Village senior, said she had visited Urban Outfitters in Chicago.
"I think that it's definitely a store that college students would be attracted to because they have fun stuff, but it's reasonably priced for the most part," Giffen said.
Classity
Urban Outfitters are not found in traditional shopping malls but in unique architectural structures. It is this philosophy that attracted the company to downtown Lawrence, McDeVitt said.
"Varsity Theater has great deal of character, McDeVitt said.
"There's interior brick, a nice volume of space and a wonderful street scape. We will be building a Mezza-nine."
Whether the company will be a threat to ex ist ing Lawrence retail remains to be seen.
Craig Randle, manager of Britches Clothing Company, 843 Massachu-
St. said he thought Urban Outfitters would be a good addition to downtown but that it would take time to see what type of competition it would bring.
"I'm sure it's probably going to
that block," Randle said. "They're a good company. Anytime a new, bigger store comes to town, you have to work hard to stay on top of the game. The stores that are doing that job will still be here."
Break proposal clears hurdle, gets forwarded
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Students finally may enjoy a few days off during the fall semester if the Board of Regents approves the University's revised calendar proposal this summer.
The University Senate Executive Committee voted yesterday to forward the proposal, which includes a four-day fall break in October, to the University Council.
SenEx also recommended that the new calendar be implemented in Fall 2000 if possible.
Carol Holstead, calendar committee member, said the only major changes in the revised calendar were the fall break and the shortening of the finals period from six to five days.
She said one of the main considerations in the revisions was the administration's request for a full two weeks of break during January before the spring semester begins.
"The break is an excellent time to go out and get some practical experience in the workplace," said Bob Basow, associate professor of journalism and SenEx member.
With the proposal, the spring semester would begin most years after Martin Luther King Jr. Day. During years in which the intercession would push commencement ceremonies to the Memorial Day weekend, the semester would begin before Martin Luther King Jr. Dav.
Holstad said the calendar ensured that the fall and spring semesters would be of equal length.
With the proposal, Stop Day would fall on a Friday and the finals period would be the following Monday through Friday. The shortened finals period would require finals to last two-and-a-half hours instead of three hours.
"There will be some implications," said Bob Hohn, SenEx chairman and professor of psychology and educational research. "More students will have three finals in one day."
Holstead said the finals period adjustment would not be a biz deal in the long run.
"It's one of those things where people will grumble," she said. "It's a change, but I think we can adapt."
Adam Gressel, Bururt freshman, said he would not mind having more than two finals a day.
"I think fall break is a good idea because we wouldn't have to go to school for such a long time without a break," he said. "I wouldn't mind more finals in a day if we could just get them over with."
In addition, the spring semester would begin on a Friday some years.
"It has all the benefits of the original calendar," Holstead said. "The only compromise is that it is not very symmetrical."
The University Council will consider the proposal Feb. 11. Chancellor Robert Hemenway and the provost must approve the proposal before it is forwarded March 1 to the Board of Regents.
The Regents must approve the calendar, which will set academic dates for fall 2001 through spring 2004, by June.

Commission nixes early bar closings
By Heather Woodward
Kansan staff writer
Instead, in a 3-2 vote, the commission adopted six conditions set forth in a memorandum by Ed Collister, an attorney who represents the interests of bar owners from the The Wagon Wheel and The Jayawk Hafe. The conditions will be a part of the bars' drinking establishment licenses.
In an unexpected turn of events last night, the Lawrence City Commission tabled an ordinance that would require The Wagon Wheel Cafe and The Jayhawk Cafe residential neighborhood bars to close at midnight.
Chris Lane, 1998 KU graduate, said, "I'm shocked and pleased with the decision. I think it's a good one."
In the memo, the bar owners promised to hire public or private security on Thursday through Saturday from 11:30 p.m. to 2:30 a.m. They also promised to close the beer gardens daily at midnight, with the exception of 15 days per year for special occasions.
The commission will revisit this issue in a year to see whether the conditions have had any effect on improving the neighborhood.
IN OTHER BUSINESS:
Authorized $800,000 in general bonds for public building improvements, including City Hall and the Lawrence Public Library.
Awarded a $30,117 bid to Sichie Group for a prisoner transportation van for the Lawrence Police Department.
- Directed publication or a notice of publication
- Delaware Street and north of Hobbs Park.
Set Feb. 16 as the date to receive bids on the Storm Sewer and Waterline projects on Ninth Street from Vermont to New Hampshire streets.
John Heleniak, owner of The Jayhawk Cafe, 1340 Ohio St., said he hoped the neighborhood would help to clean up the area.
"To a point, I'm relieved," Heleniak said. "My parents grew up in an area that had neighborhood bars, where the bars and the residents worked together. This is a stipulation that we are putting on ourselves, and I hope that the neighborhood can help out also."
"I think its probably the best decision we can have at this time," Hickam said. "It's a reasonable compromise. We'll see if it works."
Greg Hickam, who is on the board of directors for the Oread Neighborhood Association, said he was pleased with the commission's decision.
On Jan. 12, the commission told the bar owners and the neighborhood group to meet and attempt a compromise. Janet Gerstner, president of the Oread Neighborhood Association, said the neighborhood proposed that the bars close at midnight on weeknights and at 2 a.m. on weekends. She said the bar owners rejected that idea.
Collister said he didn't think the ordinance drafted previously by the city would have solved the complaints made by residents.
1.
"For the most part, the complaints I've heard have to do with people who aren't acting like good citizens," Colllier said. "This way, there is more of a security presence. If the operators do what they say they are going to do, we can address part of the problem."

Embezzler takes $635 from comptroller office
Cash totaling $634.88 was embuzzed from the Office of the Comptroller, 20 Carruth-O'Leary Hall, between 8 and 11:30 a.m. Jan 27, a KU Public Safety Office report said.
KU police are investigating the stolen funds but have not yet made an arrest, said Maj. Chris J. Keary, assistant director of the Public Safety Office.
Keary said the results of the investigation would go in a report that would be sent to the Douglas County District Attorney's Office for prosecution. He said that until the report was finished, he could not release any further details.
Taco Grande robbery deemed a false report
An reported armed robbery that occurred around closing time on Jan. 14 at Taco Grande, 534 Frontier Rd., never happened, Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Depart ment said.
Police determined through interviews with witnesses that the robbery was a false report.
The original police report said a man armed with a handgun entered the store and stole $500. Wheeler said that two or more people could be arrested in connection with the false report.
Man arrested in church after being found naked
A man who said he was looking for a bathroom was found naked in the basement of First United Methodist Church, 946 Vermont St., said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police were called when a female employee of the church discovered the nude man standing in the entryway of a basement lunchroom, Wheeler said.
The man, who was clothed by the time police arrived, was arrested and charged by the police with lewd and lascivious behavior.
Two robberies thwarted by one Lawrence officer
A man armed with a pointed finger in his coat pocket stole a package of meat late Monday night from Food 4 Less, 2525 Iowa St., said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
An employee tried to stop the man for shoplifting when the man pointed what the employee thought was a gun at him and told the employee to let him leave. The man then went to a gas station and stole two dollars' worth of gas, Wheeler said.
Officer John Godden stopped the man at 13th Street and Haskell Avenue and arrested him for robbery, battery and theft.
At 4:03 a.m., Godden was sitting in a police car in the parking lot of K-mart, 3106 Iowa St., finishing the paperwork for the first robbery arrest when a K-mart security guard told Godden that two men had just driven off with a carload of stolen merchandise, Wheeler said.
Godden caught up with the men and arrested them. In the car, a Pinto, Godden found several bags of charcoal, lighter fluid, 20 fans, three garden hoses, an edger, a garden tiller and a dolly—presumably to unload the loot, Wheeler said.
Police arrest KU students after routine ID checks
A KU student was arrested at 9:28 p.m. Jan. 30 in the 1500 block of Tennessee Street for running from police and carrying two forms of false identification, a Lawrence Police report said.
Police stopped two KU students at the Wagon Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St, on a routine ID check. One of the students was charged with minor in possession when police found he was underage. The other student attempted to flee but was found hiding under a car by police. The two students reside at the Beta Theta Pi, 1425 Tennessee St., fraternity house.

Clinton, Congress discuss sending troops to Kosovo
I will do my best.
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration is discussing with Congress the possible use of thousands of American ground troops to monitor any peace settlement in Kosovo.

Brazil's Finance Ministry removes bank president
BRASILIA, Brazil — The Finance Ministry removed the president of Brazil's central bank today, less than a month after he was named to the post.
Francisco Lopes will be replaced by Arminio Fraga, who has a doctorate in economics from Princeton University and was called "one of Brazil's best economists" in a news conference yesterday by Finance Minister Pedro Malan.
The Finance Ministry said the govern ment decided to overhaul the central bank to strengthen the institution following the recent shift in Brazil's foreign exchange policy.
Last month, the central bank formally adopted a policy allowing the local currency, the real, to float freely against the dollar.
Since restrictions were lifted on Brazil's foreign exchange trading, the real has depreciated 32 percent against the dollar. The real weakened further today on news of the change at the central bank but stabilized in later trading.
The Sao Paulo Stock Exchange, Latin America's largest, opened higher but was 3.4 percent lower by midday with traders blaming profit-taking after Monday's 8.8 percent rise.
"As soon as the scenery looks like it's improving, something else crops up," one currency dealer said.

Diversity decision to be reached using mail ballot for members

diverse nation and to participate in a multicultural work environment," Neill said. "This diversity requirement is an effort to help students to diversify their perspective and to question their value system."
Implementation of the requirement would add no extra hours to a student's course load, Neill said.
Aaron Profitt, Overland Park sophomore, spoke against the requirement at the meeting.
"First of all, I don't think we need to add any more requirements," he said. "It might mean one more course you don't want to take."
Profitf also objected to the idea that the diversity requirement was not politically motivated.
"If it weren't political, we wouldn't be sitting here arguing," he said. "I don't think the University should force a political agenda on students."
Votaw agreed that the diversity requirement was political.
"We can't escape ideology," she said. "Western Civ. is just as political as this."
Votaw also said that the requirements would not increase the amount of hours that a student needs to graduate.
"If a student plans right, a student won't be burdened with another course," Votaw said. "It would satisfy general educational requirements and major requirements."
William Keel, professor of Germanic languages and literatures, said he supported a diversity requirement but said the proposal would put smaller departments at a disadvantage.
If students are allowed to fulfill two requirements by taking one course, then departments
that could not offer a diversity-based class would be negatively affected, he said.
Kathryn Conrad, assistant professor of English and member of the ad hoc committee, said she didn't see why smaller departments were more threatened by the diversity requirement than the non-western culture requirement, for instance.
"If they're frustrated by the way courses are distributed they should consider changing the Western Civilization requirement," Conrad said.
ON THE RECORD
"Correcting the social injustice is more important," Votaw said.
"It's not impossible that they wouldn't think up courses that would fulfill the diversity requirement."
Votaw said the need for this requirement outweighed any negative effects.

Pi Kappa Phi fraternity to join University chapters next spring
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
Students interested in joining a fraternity at the University of Kansas will have more options to choose from beginning Spring 2000.
The Interfraternity Council passed an expansion proposal last night that would allow Pi Kappa Phi fraternity to establish a chapter at the University.
Two years after the chapter is established, a committee made up of council members and the University community would review the chapter's success and progress and determine whether to invite another fraternity, Delta Sigma Phi, to the University.
Wes Simons, assistant director of greek programs, said after the expansion committee met with concerned fraternity chapter members, it developed the approved proposal, which included the performance review requirement.
"I feel more comfortable, and the presidents feel more comfortable with the counterproposal," Simons said.
Only three fraternity council members voted against the expansion proposal.
Kelsey Simcox, Phi Kappa Tau fraternity president, said he voted against the proposal because of the expansion timeline.
"We wanted to wait another year to bring the fraternity on campus," he said. "We have concerns about recruitment."
Last week, the Interfraternity Council tabled a proposal that would have brought Pi Kappa Phi fraternity to the University next fall and Delta Sigma Phi fraternity two years later.
Simons said Pi Kappa Phi was an impressive fraternity because they had the largest national philanthropy project among Greek organizations.
Push America is a two-month project when 60 fraternity members bike from San Francisco to Washington, D.C., in order to raise awareness for charities, said Jeff Esola, Pi Kappa Phi expansion director
"We are the only Greek organization to develop our own philanthropy," he said. "Since it was created in 1977, we have earned over $3 million."
Esola said the fraternity's goal was to develop the members into better men.
Ted Hammer, Delta Sigma Phi challenge team member, said the fraternity members were excited about possibly reacting the chapter at the University. The KU chapter closed during the 1970s.
Simons said the expansion committee also was impressed with Delta Sigma Phi fraternity because of its emphasis on values rather than entertainment.

New Dillons store hours surprise some shoppers
By Katie Burford Kansan staff writer
When Jeff Baczkowski, Lenexa junior, pulled into the parking lot of Dillons grocery store on Massachusetts Street at 12:15 a.m. Monday, he got a little surprise: The store was closed.
Dillons store 43, 1740 Massachusetts St., is no longer open 24 hours a day. Bazckowski and others will have to go elsewhere to look for munchies between midnight and 6 a.m.
"I am really disappointed," Baczkowski said. "I think they've abandoned the neighborhood."
Deanis Gaschler, a representative for Dillons, said the decision to change the store hours was strictly a business decision. He said the other two Dillons locations in Lawrence, 3000 West Sixth St. and 1015 West 23rd St., would remain open around the clock.
But for area residents,it's not the same.
"It sucks," said Jamie Abitz,
Onaga junior. "I live two blocks away, and I come a hot late at night."
Elizabeth Sheriden, Lawrence resident, she preferred to shop at night because there weren't any crowds. She said that she went to Dillons because it was closest to her residence but that now she probably would go to Checkers Foods, 2300 Louisiana St.
Lacey Comer, an employee of Checkers, said that Dillons' new hours might increase Checkers' business, but it also could increase the business at other Dillons stores.
But it's not just convenience that students will miss. It's also the unique customer traffic that the store attracted during its late night hours.
"I won't get to see all the freaks anymore," said Rebecca Ulanoff, Huntington Woods, Mich., senior. Ulanoff said she was disappointed that Dillions had changed its hours.
"I counted on having that community grocery store in a time of need," she said.

Dole Institute's gain hurts educators
The Robert J. Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy will be a welcome addition to the University of Kansas, but its federal financing is shameful.
The University will receive $6 million from the federal government for the Dole Institute. The money earmarked for the University was taken from another, more important federal program.
In January, the U.S. Department of Education canceled its annual competition for the Fund for the Improvement of Postsecondary Education (FIPSE), after Congress decided to spend the money on representatives' and senators' pet projects.
Last year, the education department awarded $25.2 million in grants to support innovative solutions to problems in higher education. The education department was ready to hand out another 1,700 grants this
Congress should not have taken money away from innovative education program.
year, but Congress had a different plan.
The House and Senate increased FIPSE's money to $50 million, but instead of giving the money to educators in the form of grants, the money must go to national projects like the Dole Institute.
FIPSE gave money to educators who improved education and bettered students' lives. When Congress killed the program, it sent a message that improving education is not a top priority.
Worse, the University is among the organizations stealing this money.
Officials at the University had little to
do with the allocation. But the money is tainted, and the University should have been apprehensive to accept it, if not turned it down all together.
The Dole Institute will cost $6 million to build. The Kansas Legislature has given the University $3 million, and another $3 million is from private donations. That means that the federal money was not a necessity.
Burdett Loomis, director of the Dole Institute, said the $6 million in federal money probably would create an endowment for institute programs and would pay for processing Dole's official papers.
Some of that money also should be set aside for a program that gives grants to Kansas educators who find innovative ways to improve higher education.
It only seems fair.

Feedback
KU Ambassador's tale really isn't accurate
Recently, one of my daughters, a KU student, called to my attention an article in the Dec. 2 issue of The University Daily Kansan regarding the fine work of the KU Ambassadors. One portion of that article was very interesting to me and quoted Carrie Dempenhub, a KU Ambassador, retelling a part of the history of Hoch Auditorium.
She stated, "They used to play basketball in the basement of Hoch Auditorium, but since there was limited seating, you could only buy tickets for half of a game, either the first or second half. There were crimson tickets for one half and blue tickets for the other half."
Although I attended the University in the 1950s and remember watching many fine basketball games in Hoch Auditorium (not Hoch Basement), I have no recollection of seeing only one half of any game which is probably because I and most other students saw
the entirety of every game we attended. Therefore, I feel like I need to clarify what the Ambassadors are telling campus visitors. As Dependush correctly states, Hoch was not large enough to accommodate all of the students who wanted to attend games. Consequently, a season ticket plan was devised (by whom I never knew) through which the complete schedule of home games was divided into two sub-scheduled. For example, if the complete schedule included 12 home games, sub-schedule 1 included six of the home games, and sub-schedule 2 included the other six of the home games. Then, on a first come, first served basis, students picked up their season tickets choosing to attend the six games making up sub-schedule 1 or the six games making up sub-schedule 2. Students did not choose between seeing the first half of the games and the second half of the games.
I can understand how the Hoch myth evolved, but I can't understand how anyone would believe and retell it. It is
humorous to imagine a scenario in which the Hoch public address announcer requests at halftime of a close KU-MU game that all students in the building need to rush home to their radios and Max Falkenstien so that another group of students can come in and see the second half. It is difficult to envision students filing out in an orderly fashion (or leaving at all) in 1954 or, for that matter, in 1999.
In brief, 1950s KU student basketball fans saw all of half the games, not half of all the games. It is easy to see how the misunderstanding occurred. I hope that this somewhat entertaining chapter in KU history can be corrected before it is told again.

Editor's Note: According to Richard Konzem, associate athletic director, and Tom Hutton, director of University Relations, Hannah's recollection is correct.

Perspective
Significance of Pope importance of icons not clear to teen-ager
BENNA M. BAKER
My 19-year-old son, who is not yet college educated and not yet Catholic, made an agitated remark the other
day regarding the visit of Pope John Paul II to St. Louis last week.
Simmie Berroya
opinion @ kansan.com
He had been watching the news in which some young people were being interviewed on the street and gave their reactions.
My son's exclamation went something like this: "One kid said that the pope was the closest thing to being God on earth! No human being
can be closer to being God than another!"
My response to my son came in the form of a question: "Are you Catholic?" "No." was his reply.
"Then how can you possibly understand the context or implication of this person's statement?" I asked.
At this point, he seemed in favor of changing the subject, which I agreed with simply because I didn't feel like arguing with him at the time.
Later, I started thinking about it, and came to the conclusion that my son didn't understand the importance of icons.
But icons are important in the religious world.
I believe that another reason the Catholic teenagers in America get so excited to see the pope is that he is the major icon of their faith. Because he's the head of the Catholic Church, he represents Christ on Earth in the greatest sense. He is an icon because he embodies all the teachings and traditions of the church.
Before I switched to a Catholic perspective, I didn't know what an icon was. I thought it just was a computer term used to describe the tool bar of a computer screen.
They are symbols of something that is too great in size or worth to attach the entire language symbol expression to it every time we talk or think about it. We need an image that represents the whole thing.
Because icons make it real to them. For most people who were in St. Louis those few days, it was the first time — and probably the last — to see a pope in person.
So why is this so important to young people?
Throughout the pope's visit to the Mid
However, most Catholics have seen the pope on television.
west, I noticed that the media kept talking about how remarkable the pope's influence was on the young people.
The press mentioned several reasons that were obvious, such as the pope having a reputation of loving young people.
I think it is a dimensional dynamic. When you see a person on television, it is two-dimensional. There may be the tiniest sense of doubt that asks, "Am I really seeing what I would see if I were there?"
So, what's the difference?
When you see someone in person, even though you may not be close enough to see clearly the details you would see on television, you are seeing three-dimensionally, causing reasoning to kick in and say, "Yes, he is real, for I have seen him with my own eyes."
Pope John Paul II is a living icon that represents a church that is 2,000 years old. He represents a faith that has survived two millenniums of adversity and darkness—and is still triumphant.
Berroya is an Olathe senior in communication studies.
Short skirt, black boots spark friends'scoffing
Clothes make the man. While I know my parents did not originate the saying, I will attribute it to them because I have heard it from them so many times. For a
long as I can remember,
my parents have told me
that the way you dress
makes a statement about
who you are.
Sydney Wallace
ooinion @ kansan.com
And I always have believed them, at least to an extent.
1980
I always have tried to dress appropriately for the occasion and always have dressed up for presentations, job interviews and holidays.
It was the first Friday night of the new semester, and a friend of mine from work was having a party. I don't really know exactly why, but I decided to wear a skirt. It was a short skirt, but I didn't really think anything about wearing it out.
When I dressed that evening, I thought I looked good. Yes, I was more dressed up than usual, but I figured that there would be lots of girls dressed up at the party, because black pants seem to be the Friday night uniform for so many girls at the University of Kansas.
The afternoon of the party I was out shopping, and on the spur of the moment, I bought some black boots that reach to just below my knees. They were on sale, and I recently had admired a similar pair on a friend.
Heck, sometimes you will catch me in a skirt for no reason at all.
Because I just had bought the boots, I decided to wear them to the party that evening with my skirt.
Needless to say, I have learned that what you wear affects how people think of you. But it wasn't until two weekends ago that I realized how powerful clothing can be.
My first hint that I was going to raise some eyebrows came only moments after dressing, when I walked out into my own living room.
One of my closest friends started laughing at me, and my roommate's boyfriend asked me if that was what I was wearing.
In my typical fashion, I became defensive and tried to justify wearing a skirt and
boots out on a Friday night to my friends. While they told me they still would be friends with me if I wore the outfit, they were still a bit hesitant about my choice.
We left my apartment to pick up a few people before heading to the party. When I went in to get two of my guy friends, I again was given the third degree about my outfit. When I got mad, they backed off but not until they muttered something about just not being used to seeing me dressed like that.
I again wondered what was so shocking to everyone.
We made it to the party and within 30 seconds of walking through the front door, I was being hassled about my attire. Some of my friends were making cat calls at me and saying they "never expected to see me in an outfit like that." I didn't know what the right response was anymore, so I just smiled and told them that wonders never cease.
After a few minutes, things calmed down around me, but every time I encountered a friend for the first time that night, they made some comment about my outfit. While most people told me I looked really good, they expressed a bit of surprise to see me dressed in such a way.
My friends still were joking about it even days after the fact.
I really had a good time that night, but the controversy I had caused with one outfit continued to puzzle me.
Until the night that I wore a short skirt with boots, I had presented a very different image with my clothing. An image that those people close to me had become comfortable with. When I wore something in contrast to the image I presented, people couldn't help but be confused.
I finally have decided that the uproar I caused must be simply because clothes really do make a person.
While I will not let one Friday night of commotion keep me from wearing my skirt and boots, I will know to expect a dramatic response the next time I put them on.
Clothes may help make me who I am, but I never will let them dictate who I always must be.

Student Senate will consider 2 bills for candidates' rights
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate will consider two bills affecting candidates' rights at its meeting tonight.
The first bill would add a provision to senate rules and regulations that would allow candidates to have their coalition titles next to their names on the ballot.
The student rights committee passed the bill last week in response to the elections commission's omission of the specific right in its initial 1999 elections code.
But at an elections code hearing Monday night, the elections commission revised its initial code to include candidates' rights to be represented by their coalitions.
"After a lot of healthy discussion, we decided it would be more beneficial to students to have their coalition names on the ballot," said Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner.
Watkins said the commission originally omitted the clause so that it would be easier for independent candidates to be elected. But she said that after debate, the com-
Senate does not need to consult the commission to pass the bill.
Aravind Muthukrishnan, Nune-
maker senator, said if Senate did so, it unfairly would be overriding the commission. However, he said it was good that the commission revised its do
sion revised its decision.
"If they did it because of political pressure, then that's wrong," he said. "But if they realized it wasn't a good thing, then it's fine."
The second bill that Senate will consider would create a review process that would allow candidates to appeal elections commission decisions such as fines for illegal campaign posters.
Watkins said the elections commission supported the bill
In addition, the commission increased the filing fee required when students want to run for Senate seats. Students either can pay a
fee or gather signatures to be included on the ballot.
The commission increased the fee from $10 to $20, but it decreased the number of signatures required from 50 to 35.
The commission also received complaints about the constitutionality of campaign spending limits, which were implemented last year, but it did not remove them from the elections code.
"We are an educational institution," Watkins said. "We felt it was okay to impose spending limits."
Senate will review bills to create an alternative media subcommittee and a joint campus safety board between the University administration and Senate.
Senate also will consider a resolution requesting the president of Emporia State University to include sexual orientation in ESU's non-discrimination policy.
The Senate executive staff will meet at 5 p.m. at the Governors Room in the Kansas Union. The full Senate will meet for the first time this semester at 6:30 tonight at Parlors A, B and C in the Union.
Campaign contributions questioned
Kansans For Life challenged the law after they were required to disclose contribution information for a radio commercial that aired during the 1998 Republican primary.
Campaign finance reform is being reviewed partly because of a pending lawsuit against the state.
Under present laws, Levy sait groups that advocate an issue are not required to reveal their contributors, although political issues and candidates often are intertwined in the advocacy.
The anti-abortion group took the position that the disclosure of the contributors was unconstitutional because the commercial was not advocating a candidate according to Kansas law, Levy said.
Levy said any objective observer would interpret the commercial as
8
advocating David Miller, who challenged Bill Graves for the Republican nomination.
Two proposed bills could remedy this problem.
To disclose or not to disclose. That is the question before Kansas legislators as they debate proposed campaign finance reform bills.
Although Levy did not necessarily support either bill, he advised legislators to change the law. Levy said the language in the bills was better than the current law, which he said was too vague.
State Sen. Anthony Hensley, D-Topeka, and State Rep. Lynn Jenkins, R-Topeka, introduced separate proposals that would clarify and provide an enforceable definition of advocacy. Each proposal was scheduled for hearing.
We've got the magic answers.
Tax questions?
Richard Levy, professor of law at the University of Kansas, advised a joint House and Senate committee Jan. 25 to clarify existing campaign contribution disclosure laws.
State Sen. Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence, said vaguely in campaign finance laws created problems and allowed people to find loopholes.

"The problem is how to tell the difference and draw the line between advocating an issue or a candidate," Levy said.

KAW radio may resume service
Proposed FCC law helps small stations
By T.J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
The Federal Communications Commission proposed a law last week that would allow low-powered radio stations such as Lawrence's KAW to operate without breaking the law.
If passed, the law would allow stations operating with one to 1,000 watts to be licensed to operate legally.
Last year, Lawrence's KAW 88.9 community radio station ran into legal trouble with the FCC because it was operating without a license. The station had been operating with 10 watts of power, but 100 watts were required to be licensed.
KAW was visited by agents from the FCC during the year, and a petition drive was coordinated in the community to keep the station alive.
Rich Wenzel, a volunteer for KAW, said he and the other people who run KAW had been doing in-depth legal research about the regulations regarding licensing before they would put the station back on the air
Last June, the FCC licensed a Christian radio network to broadcast on the frequency KAW had been using, forcing the station off the air.
—With no Without teacher, the attorney Dennis Highberger, the attorney representing KAW, said he thought the station would try to apply for a license from the FCC, depending on what the new regulations stated.
Wenzel said, "I think that one of the
If a community radio station is licensed, the community alone should be able to transfer that license to another community-oriented station. This would help to protect community stations that could be licensed, Wenzel said.
key things about the new regulations is whether there will be adequate priority and protection for community programming."
He said community stations should be protected from large commercial stations, which could try to buy them out.
Wenzel said that he thought that when determining which station should be given a specific frequency, the FCC should use the criteria used in countries such as Japan and Canada. The station that provides the best content and community service would be awarded the license.
He said translator stations, which relay satellite programming to multiple stations across the country, now are given the same protection as local commercial stations, leading to a crowded FM dial. The station that bumped KAW off the air is a translator station.
Wenzel said KAW had a new and undisclosed location that would provide better coverage of the Lawrence area.
He also said that the station would apply for a license either before the new regulations were passed or after, if the laws seemed fair to community radio stations.
KAW will have a programming meeting at 4:30 p.m. Sunday in the basement of Liberty Hall.
The fate of KAW?
March 1997 — KAW goes on the air, offering alternative community programming.
Oct. 1997 — FCC visits KAW, issuing a warning to the station.
June 1998 — KAW goes off the air.
Nov. 1997 California judge rules that the FCC laws requiring licensing of microstations are unconstitutional.
Feb. 7, 1999 — KAW programming meeting at Liberty Hall.

Museum showcases '60s music and films
By Matt Merkel-Hess Special to the Kansan
Students who are interested in learning about '60s pop culture and political issues can attend a series of events at the Spencer Museum of Art on upcoming Wednesdays.
George Heller, professor of music education, will present the music of the '60s at 3:30 p.m. today.
"It is an incredibly diverse collection of music," Heller said. "I'm going to do a survey as best I can in 45 minutes."
The presentation will focus on the Billboard Top 40, which Heller said had a great effect on everyone.
Although Heller has taught a course about rock 'n' roll, in addition to music education and world music in the past, he now is on phased retirement and teaches only during fall semesters.
Heller also is writing a book about music education.
The presentations were coordinated by the public education department at the museum. Future topics include women's studies, American pop culture and literature.
"We designed these for students," said Pat Villeneuve, the public education director at the museum. "We really tried to do a

The art museum also has a Saturday afternoon film series that continues this weekend. Goldfinger, the 1964 James Bond movie will be shown at 2 p.m.at the art museum auditorium.
"We started with a list of films we wanted to show," Villeneuve said. "But a number of the films weren't available on 16 mm film or any format."
Villeneuve said it was difficult to pick six films that represent a decade.
The movies will continue each Saturday until March 6.

To qualify, students must have a 3.25 grade point average or be an active participant in the honors program. Students do not need to speak Hebrew.

Finishing touches planned for Digital Jayhawk Web site
Project's goal to consolidate news sources
By Ezra Sykes Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas School of Journalism soon will unveil a project aimed at helping students work in a world of media convergence.
By early March, the Digital Jayhawk should be set to soar, said Gary Hawke, general manager of KJHK and KUJH. Hawke has been working on the project for the past four years.
The Digital Jayhawk will be a complete database of news in different media, said Chris Ryan, the project's leader and professional resident at the University.
Users will be able to open the site to a personalized page that will reveal a smorgasbord of multimedia options.
They will be able to access The University Daily Kansan articles, KUJI audio/video archives and eventually will be able to see the title of the song that is playing on KJHK.
The Digital Jayhawk also will use a product called VISION that chops news broadcasts into sections so that users can search for keywords in a speech or news story and then watch clips relating to it.
Features such as online greeting cards also will be included.
Ryan said the challenge was to organize the news in a format that was easy to use and that could be distributed in many contexts.
In the past, barriers have existed in the journalism world between print, television and radio.
With the explosion of the Internet, a publishing resource has appeared that has given the profession a new realm in which the separate news entities can cooperate.
Susie Gura, Clarendon Hills, Ill.,

story won't just be for the paper.
You can extend it beyond that."
James Gentry, dean of the School of Journalism, said it was now common for radio stations, television stations and newspapers to collaborate on news stories.
Gentry thought the Digital Jayhawk would be ideal for such interaction for the campus media sources.
"Other media are narrowly focused." he said. "The Digital Jayhawk it can. It can be broadly
"The Web is producing thousands of jobs every day," Gentry said. "The Digital Jayhawk will provide an opportunity for an enormous amount of students to be involved."
applied. Every sequence is involved.
Hawke also has high expectations for the project.
"If we can be a player in the arena and offer something to our students that is more advanced than professional operations, they can get comfortable with the media and gain national exposure." Hawke said.
The start of the Digital Jayhawk doesn't mean the demise of any other campus media, including the Kansan's online branch, the UDKI, Ryan said.
"We don't intend to take anything away from the UDK1," he said. "This is an expansion of it. This should not be viewed as a threat of taking anything away from the existing online staff."
Aaron Knopf, online editor of the UDK1, he did not view the creation of the Digital Jayhawk as a threat but rather as a way for independent media outlets to help each other operate.
Knopf also said that from the beginning, Ryan had assured him the Digital Jayhawk would not replace the UKDI.
"Maybe at some point it will be adversarial, but I don't see that foundation being built," Knopf said.
Hawke also explained the potential relationship between the campus media.
"The Web is producing thousands of jobs every day. The Digital Jayhawk will provide an opportunity for an enormous amount of students to be involved."
Jimmy Gentry
Dean of the school of journalism
"We expect them to be partners with us," he said. "We are not competing with them. We are coordinating output for this lab."
The start-up costs for the program will be about $44,000, most of which will come from the University.
Gentry said the venture was relatively inexpensive to start.
The basic services of the Digital Jayhawk will be free for all of those with internet access, but premium services will be available for a price. Organizers still are deciding which services will be considered premium and what the cost of those services will be.
These services, along with banner subscriptions and links to such online businesses as www.CDNow.com and www.Amazon.com, will help support the project, Ryan said.
Hawke is anxious to see the Digital. Javahawk fully materialize.
"I’m tired of getting nice stories about the thing," Hawke said. "I want to actually produce something."
Judge blocks enforcement of Internet-content law
Act seeks to impose age-verification rules on particular pages
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
On Monday in Philadelphia, U.S.
Judge Lowell Reed granted a preliminary injunction against the Child Online Protection Act.
A federal judge blocked enforcement of an Internet-content law that, if enforced, could have implications for University of Kansas students.
"Iindeed, perhaps we do the minors of this country harm if the First Amendment protections, which they with age will inherit, are chipped away in their protection." Reed wrote in the opinion of the court.
The law was an attempt to address the constitutional errors in the Communications Decency Act of 1996. The CDA was overturned by the U.S. Supreme Court in June 1997.
The current law, known as CDA II, would have required commercial online providers that publish material considered harmful to minors to verify the ages of people accessing their sites. The law defines minors as people under the age of 17.
Age verification usually is done with a credit-card number or a personal identification number available for a fee from businesses that specialize in age verification.
If enforced, it would carry civil and criminal fines of up to $150,000 a day and up to six months in prison for those convicted under its terms.
Ted Frederickson, professor of journalism at the University, said he was dubious about the law's ability to define what is harmful to minors.
"In my mind, there's nothing more harmful than depriving people of information that they need," Frederickson said.
He also said that the law would have implications for KU students and faculty if it were allowed to stand.
"I think it has implications for everybody because it requires people to identify themselves in order to get access to information." Frederickson said.
The American Civil Liberties Union argued successfully on behalf of 17 plaintiffs, including online bookstores, news organizations and an online community for gays and lesbians, that the law would unconstitutionally restrict freedom of access to information for adults.
"No one should have to know who you are before you read information on the Internet," Frederickson said.
Members of the KU ACLU applauded the judge's ruling.
Lloyd, Tulsa junior, said although the law looked good at first glance, further examination showed that it would restrict access to sites whose primary purpose was not pornography.
"This law would have a total chilling effect on the Internet," said Buddy Lloyd, KU ACLU president.
He said high school and college students doing any sort of research on health issues, biology or even political science could find themselves locked out of relevant sites.
He also said that it would restrict access for students who didn't have credit cards or couldn't afford to pay for an age verification PIN.
"The Starr Report could end up being classified under this act," Lloyd said.
"This law is not only a pain, it's a violation of our privacy," he said. "It's a violation of our First Amendment rights."
Frederickson agreed with Llovd's assessment of the law.
Commentary
Unique album perfects back-country rhythms
Big Smith rolls out new songs mixing several music styles
By Matt Cox
Kansan music critic
Big Smith's self-titled album is so well produced that if you closed your eyes, you would think you were lying down on the porch of a beat-up bait store in the back woods, catching a summer breeze.
The band combines a little bluegrass, a bit of blues, hints of early country and talented musicianship. Even if you aren't a fan of the aforementioned styles, give this entertaining piece of work a chance.
Authentic and original are words that come to mind when listening to classical guitars and mandolins run away with rapid flamenco riffs to an old country beat. "Go Away Maggie" sets up strong harmonies to help communicate pointed lyrics about a drunken and unaffectional mother coming in from a wild night. Jody Bilyean sings, "Go sleep where you been sleepin' and tomorrow we'll be gone."
BIG SMITH Rating: A
The lighter-hearted "Trash" expresses Big Smith members' ways of celebrating their lifestyle. You can't help but laugh when you hear Jody's brother, Mark, sing, "Don't call me trash 'til you've slept in my trailer." The mesmerizing beat leaves even non-country fans singing along.
No flaw can be found on the album. Every song has its own lyrical and musical intentions to leave unique impressions on the listener.
bigsmith contributed ph-
Other instruments such as an accordion, mouthbown, spoons
and an auto harp create an atmosphere on every track that only a talented band of Big Smith's caliber could produce.

Eighties redux
Many people welcome the resurgence of the Atari age
By Heather Woodward
Kansan staff writer
Ah, how far we've come since the bell-bottom-wearing disco dancers of the '70s took on the year 1980. Or have
we? Many of us certainly think we have.
Take a look back: Reagan was in the White House, Silver Spoons was on television and Boy George was all the
rague. The only difference now is that scandal has rocked Capitol Hill, Rick Schroeder is all grown up, baring his rear end on *NYPD Blue*, and glam rock's poster boy is Marilyn Manson.
Back then, phrases like "Totally radical!" and "Duh!" rolled off our tongues, only to be replaced by "Whatever!" and "As if!"
We'd like to think that the tacky decade when punk set the fashion standard and teeny-bopper movies were cranked out by the dozens would never again darken our doorsteps.
But history is destined to repeat itself, and tell tale signs that the '80s will return are all around.
Sammyne Wentz, a consultant for Clinique cosmetics at Weavers Department Store, Inc., 901 Massachusetts St., said that makeup had taken on a combination of styles from the '60s, '70s and '80s.
"The lime greens are back in and the frosty blues." Wentz said. "Blue eye shadow is lighter than it was in the 80s. I think we'll see more and more trends from the 80s coming back."
A Self-confessed fan of the '80s, Lindsay Dunn.
Colorado Springs
Colo., senior, said it was only a matter of time before the '80s returned full force — transformed
bv a '90s sensibility.
"It was an awesome era," she said. "The movies were so bad. But I just think it was a fun time. Big curly hair will be here soon. I think it's just a revolution. There are only so many turns fashion can take before it repeats itself."
Dunn said jelly shoes were back with a flair of sophistication and complete with a platform sole. Wearing dozens of bracelets is back, reminiscent of the jelly bracelet days, but this time the arm jewelry looks more like delicate silver hair bands.
Linda Lester, owner of The Etc. Shop Accessories, 928 Massachusetts St., said she thought the fashions of every decade were destined to return.
"All the girls are buying charm bracelets again." Lester said, "It's really trend."

The '80s were a time when clothing companies made us into walking advertisements. Jeans jeans and Esprit T-shirts shouted company logos in the form of triangular pocket patches and fluorescent block letters. National chains are finding newer, cutter ways to put their names on T-shirts, sweaters and tank tops such as Tommy Hilfiger and Abercrombie & Fitch
And there is that unmistakable sound. Some of us claimed we'd never again fall for the likes of New Kids on the Block — affectionately called NKOTB. But a recent influx of boy bands such as Hanson, 'N SYNC and the Backstreet Boys has recaptured some girls' hearts. Even little Joe McIntyre, of NKOTB, is coming out with a new solo effort.
Katie Holmes, Shawne senior, said she was drawn into music by 'N SYNC with the band's first hit. "Tearing Up My Heart."

Hansen said he thought that these teeny-bopper film takeoffs still appealed to older people who wanted to remember their teen-age years.
"Some people want to remember how they watched The Breakfast Club in high school and how it made them laugh," Hansen said.
Like it or not, the '80s are destined to come back, and slowly but surely that return already has started. Just look around. They're probably closer than you think.

Kansas women to battle Colorado
By Matt James
Konson sportswriter
Kansan sportswriter
When Brooke Reves graduated from Denver's Manual High School in 1996, most of the Big 12 schools, including the local Colorado Buffaloes, showed little interest in her. Now, three years later, it's payback time.
Reveys will face the school that let her slip
away at 7:05 p.m. tonight at Allen Fieldhouse.
The Jayhawk forward averaged 17 points and 12 rebounds per game her senior season at Manual and was named to the USA Today honorable mention All-America team, but the Buffers never called.
That lingering memory made the Jayhawks' 76-65 loss at Boulder on Jan. 20 painful for Reyes.
"It was hard to lose at home, especially since I had quite a crowd," she said. "It's difficult because (Colorado) didn't do much in-state recruiting when I was in high school. I wasn't much of a prospect, so it's a big deal for me to beat a team like that."
Colorado spoiled Reves' return to the state when it jumped
out to an early lead, and the winded Jayhawks never could muster a comeback.
Reves: The Denver native is ready to take on Colorado.
"That was an embarrassing game for us," Reves said. "We ran out of gas. It just wasn't our game, and we didn't play defense like we know how."
The team's play in that Colorado game may have been hard for Reves to stomach.
but the Wichita State transfer has been anything but a disappointment for the Javhaws this season.
Since Coach Marian Washington put her into the starting lineup five games ago at Nebraska, Reves has transformed herself from a role player into a team leader, earning the respect of her teammates and

Club sports allow students to compete meet new people
University offers many opportunities
By Melinda Weaver Kansan sportswriter
Students who compete in club sports at the University of Kansas often find that meeting new people can be as rewarding as winning a competition.
The range of sports clubs varying from rugby to water skiing are available for students as long as they pay the required dues to compete. Because of the assorted options, club sports draw a variety of students into the program.
Laura Lavid, treasurer of the lacrosse team, joined the club when she saw a sign advertising club sports. She said she had played the sport when she lived in Virginia.
Lavid, Wichita sophomore, said she enjoyed meeting people with similar interests, but that was not the only advantage the club offered.
"It was a good way for me to get exercise," Lavid said. "I'm not a very self-motivated person, but the club helped me get involved."
The club teams are not required to compete strictly with other universities. Many teams are invited to participate in invitational where they can play against various teams.
Clubs such as water skiing and judo compete in individual competitions. With each victory, points are added and scored for the team, similar to the system used at track competitions.
The lacrosse team competes on a collegiate level and has played against teams such as the Air Force Academy, Texas Tech University and Purdue University.
While many club teams do compete at the collegiate level, some only want to develop the skills of its participants. The Ki-Aikido club is one example.
Ki-Aikido is a martial art in self-defense. Eric Neuteboom, Ki-Aikido club's president, said the goal of the sport was to immobilize the attacker without hurting him. There is no kicking or punching involved.
"We teach coordination of the mind and body." said Neutebuch, Colorado Springs, Colo., sophomore. "We also teach breathing techniques and meditation."
"You meet people you'd never think you would meet, both students and sensai," Neuteboom said. "For example, we bring in a monk to teach us meditation."
Neuteboom said the biggest advantage of participating in club sports was meeting a variety of people.
Rick Rosensteeng, director of sports clubs, said his job was to lead the clubs administratively and deal with issues such as money and practice facilities.
Students are welcome to participate in any club sport even if they have little previous experience.
"It itches a competitive environment that people don't get if they aren't offered a scholarship," said Kevin O'Rourke, president of the crew club.
Until 1988, sport clubs were sponsored by the Athletics Department. When the growth of the program caused a strain on the department, the teams' members found another outlet recreation services
"When you are a student and carrying a full work load, it is hard to manage money, practice schedules and locate facilities," Rosenstengle said. "I try to put that together for them, so they can do what they want to do."

Columnist celebrates at home this time
CINEMA DI MILANO
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
For Broncos fans, myself included, the last two years have seemed like a dream. After suffering through the pain and humiliation of being on the short end of three Super Bowl blowouts in four years, our time has finally come. The Broncos, no matter how many they lost in the past, now have accomplished something only six other teams in
NFL history have; They are back-to-back Super Bowl Champions.
After watching last year's exciting victory against the Green Bay Packers here in Lawrence, I decided that this year it would only be right to return home to Colorado, where the Mile High Magic be felt with every deep breath and on every street in every store.
Once the inevitable was official,
and the Broncos had beaten the New York Jets, which ensured their return to the Super Bowl, I got on the horn and booked a flight to Denver. I figured it was the best place to be, next to Miami, on this Super Sunday in January.
After last year's victory, I drove the streets of Lawrence and, as I expected, found little excitement. My team had just ended not only a
personal Super Bowl drought, but also an entire AFC Super Bowl drought, and there was no one to celebrate with. Watching the game with hundreds of Denver fans in the state of Colorado was exactly what I envisioned when I booked my flight. All Broncos, all the time — and anti-Dirty Birds, all the time.
Every two-yard run by Terrell Davis was a good effort, and every
pass thrown away by John Elway was a smart decision.
When the game was over, n
On the contrary, every two yard gain by Atlanta's Jamal Anderson was a good defensive stop, and every time Chris Chandler threw the ball away, it was "nice throw, buddy."

Allen loses promising Notre Dame quarterback
Zak Kustok chooses school closer to home
By Mike Harrity
By Mike Harrity
Kansan sportswriter
There was only one thing former Notre Dame backup quarterback Zak Kustok didn’t like about the Kansas football program — its location.
And after a two-hour talk with his parents in their Orland Park, Ill., home Monday night, Kustok decided to attend Northwestern University, backing out of the nonbinding oral commitment he had given to Kansas
coach Terry Allen last fall.
HC
The decision to play at Northwestern weighed heavily on the fact that the university was only an hour's drive from his home.
"I am real close to my family, and that was a huge part of my decision," said Kustok, who will sign a national letter of intent with Northwestern today. "My decision didn't have anything to do with being displeased with anything at Kansas."
Kustok, who is 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighs 215 pounds, said his decision Monday night was more difficult than the one he faced after graduating from Sandburg High School in 1997, when he chose Notre Dame instead of the University of Michigan or Northwestern. He was recruited to Notre Dame by Lou Holtz, who was replaced by Bob Davie before Kustok's redshirt freshman year. After Davie implemented an option offense, Kustok fell on the depth chart and decided to transfer last fall to Moraine Valley Community College.
Since transferring, Kustok, who has three years of eligibility remaining, has been recruited by the University of Miami-Florida and the University of Wisconsin among others.
Kansas immediately moved to the forefront of Kustok's thoughts after he met Allen last fall. And it was his relationship with Allen that made the decision to attend Northwestern so difficult.
Allen visited the Kustok family Thursday after learning of Zak's recruiting trip to Northwestern. Their talk that night during a three-hour dinner at an Italian restaurant only strained Kustok's brain further.
"You can tell when you talk to people whether they're feeding you what you want to hear or whether they're speaking from the heart, and I know that Coach Allen speaks from the heart," Kustok said, after informing Allen of his decision.
Kustok's mother, Jeanie, is happy that her son's decision is finally made.
"His father and I felt that it was totally Zak's decision because he was the one that was going to be going to the school and playing football," she said. "We're happy that we'll get to watch him play more often, but I know that he's going to miss Coach Allen."
Although Kustok is happy to be heading to Northwestern, a certain amount of sadness still lingered yesterday at the mention of Allen's name.
"I've known Coach Allen the last four or five months, and I fell in love with him — not just as a coach, but more as a person," Kustok said. "When I talked to him (Monday) night, he told me that he was glad that he got to know me and told me good luck at Northwestern.
"Hopefully we'll be able to meet in a Bowl game someday," he said.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday: You'd rather be the idea person than the bead counter, but this year you need to learn to count beads. Your ideas may be brilliant, but if you can't market them, you'll die broke. In February, the ideas are plentiful, too. That won't be the problem. Holding onto it through April is the problem. By August, you should see a way to your biggest dreams, but in September, you'll need to prove they're valid before funding. November is exciting, but a bit dangerous. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19) : Today is a 6.
Ames ( March 21st, April 9th). Today's
You have a few things to do around the house, but
don't get upset if the job doesn't get done. You may
be a little nervous because somebody's pushing you
to get finished, and that's fine.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
An older person is concerned that everything won't get done on time. Today it looks as if you might be flaky. If so, don't do it where this person can see, and make sure the important stuff gets handled first.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
You can learn a lot today. Distance is involved, but the information is there. All you have to do is soak it up. Later, a conflict arises, but don't despair. Separation may be better right now, forming growth and insights.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
You want to set habits that help you achieve your goal. That might mean you have to toss out some that don't. Start by saying, "no" tonight to someone who would lead you away from your objective.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
Be careful with your finances. A fool and his money are soon parted. Don't be that guy. It looks as if there will be separation, but have it be because you've stashed your money into a safe account.
A hassle with a partner could cause separation. This isn't necessarily permanent. You may just decide to have separate plans for the evening. If it's more practical to do it like that, do it, and don't think a thing of it. Sunday's a much better time for romance anyway.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
Keep what you hear to yourself today. Ask questions instead of handing out information. You may be surprised to find you get contradictory answers. That's partially because people see things from different points of view but also because there's a lot going on If you're careful, you might find out what it is. That ought to be interesting.
A person you're not interested in could do a lot of talking today. A person you'd like to get to know is hard to pin down. Try to avoid petty arguments. If somebody else thinks it's such a big deal, just let it pass.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
You could have blinding insight today. Once you
can see where you want to go, the route you should
take will become obvious.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 7.
It looks as if you've got the money saved up, but what are you going to spend it on? Here's something you may not have considered yet. Instead of doing it by yourself, ask a person who's even thriller with money than you are. Perhaps you can have it all.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 3.
You're so intelligent right now. You might even think you know it all — a big mistake. Luckily, you're smart enough to avoid that ego trap. This would be most noticeable in your spending habits. Don't play poker today with anyone who does it for a living.
---
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20). Today is 8.
You could get a brilliant insight today. You're listening and paying attention, but you finally could get it because of something that happens by accident, making everything clear.

CHARLESTON, S.C. — The Charleston is back in style.
Now the Cougars (19-2), who defeated Georgia Southern 66-41 Monday night, are back in the national spotlight, ranked No. 22 in The Associated Press college basketball poll.
The College of Charleston has had this Southern city of sweet tea, antebellum homes and debutante coilions dancing to college basketball success the past decade with three NCAA appearances and five Trans America Athletic Conference crowns.

Denver and Atlanta on Sunday night drew a 40.2 national rating, the lowest since 1990. The 61 share matched the lowest ever for the Super Bowl.
Even though the game Sunday might have been the last time viewers could see Denver quarterback John Elway in action, the rating was down 9 percent from NBC's 44.5 rating last year when the Broncos beat Green Bay.
An undefeated season was a dream that ended for No. 1 Connecticut, now 19-1 after a 59-42 loss Monday night to Syracuse. Duke (21-1), voted No. 2 for the eighth consecutive poll, could overtake the top spot if it gets by No. 7 Maryland and Georgia Tech this week.
The 1999 Super Bowl did draw an estimated 127 million viewers in the United States, making it the sixth most-watched program in TV history.

Commentary
Shockers offer Wichita a little drama
Wichita and Wichita State basketball are sort of funny. Wichitans take their men's basketball team, currently ranked at No. 160 according to the RPI index, as if it were one of the top 25 teams in the nation.
Meanwhile, the Shockers are about as exciting to watch as coed intramursal at Robinson Center.
Keep in mind, we're talking about Wichita here. There's not a whole lot to do in the city. Saturday nights are spent out at the Kansas Coliseum, checking out the Big Guns' N Ammo show. Sunday morning: church. Monday through Friday: surf basic cable for any sign of professional wrestling.
In those respects, they're a lot like Kansas State students.
So a mediocre basketball program offers some serious excitement for the locals.
But for once, the Shockers actually are providing Wichitans with a little drama.
Remember the name Maurice Evans?
Evans, a native Wichitan and leading scorer of the Missouri Valley Conference with 23 points per game as a sophomore, was recruited by your very own lovable Jayhawks.
Evans rejected the opportunity to
10
be seen on ESPN Big Monday games for the chance to stay home, near the Big Guns' N Ammo shows.
But now, Evans is pretty sure he doesn't want to play for Shocker head coach Randy Smithson anymore. He walked out on the team a little more than a week ago.
Seth Jones
Sports @ kansan.com
He said something to the effect of, "I don't want to quit
the shockers, but I'm not going to play for that jerk Smithson anymore."
He also claimed that as many as eight other players were ready to walk out with him.
At Wichita State, Evans was the go-to guy. He had a green light to shoot from the parking lot if he wanted to. And sometimes it seemed as if he did. Evans put up so many shots that he could make Jeff Boschee look like a kid who is afraid to shoot.
With all those shots he was chucking up. Evans managed to become the nation's leading scorer several times at the beginning of the season.
Keep in mind, though, this was against teams such as Florida A&M and Chaminade. Some of these schools were so small that they were intimidated when they saw that Wichita State's gymnasium had electricity.
In Wichita, it's not being debated whether Randy Smithson is a jerk. It seems as if everyone agrees that he is.
The question is, do we need a jerk coach who scares his talent away? The Shockers are facing the loss of their leading scorer. At 3-7 in their conference and 9-11 overall, the Shockers obviously would rather focus on trying to win a few more games rather than hearing. "What's up with Maurice?" everywhere they go.
In the meantime, a general counsel will investigate players' concerns with the way Smithson runs his program. And the door stays open for Evans to return to the Shockers.
Evans won't talk to the media. Whether he will stay remains to be seen.

WSU star absent from crucial practice
The Associated Press
After a closed-door team meeting a day earlier, athletics director Bill
WICHIITA — It may well have been the most critical basketball practice of the season for Wichita State University. How the players performed wasn't all that important. What really counted was who showed up for yesterday's practice.
he told players that university officials would assume that WSU Wichita State University
Wichita State star Maurice Evans — who angrily walked out of practice last week — did not attend, leaving widespread speculation unresolved about his future with the team. He was the only Shocker player missing.
whoever showed up for yesterday's practice would be the players who finished out the season.
He told reporters that wasn't an ultimatum — but if Evans did not show up for practice, school officials would assume he had made
the decision not to come back.
Wichita State (9-12 overall), 3-8 Missouri Valley Conference) has lost its last two games without its leading scoring.
On several occasions this season, Evans, a 6-foot-5 sophomore guard/forward, was the No. 1 scorer in NCAA Division I ranks. He averages 23 points and 4.4 rebounds a game.
Evans has complained the Wichita State basketball program demeans and isolates its players.

'Hawks hopes to avenge loss
Continued from page 1B
taking some of the scoring burden off junior Lynn Pride's shoulders.
Pride said Reves' work ethic and awareness on the floor was what made her such a good player.
"It's really great playing with someone like that," she said.
Reves' hard work definitely has produced results. The forward has become the Jayhawks' second leading scorer — the combination of Reves and Pride account for 43.8 percent of the team's scoring — and has played her best in conference action. She has averaged 11.9 points and 5.6 rebounds per game in Big 12 play.
Besides Reves' resurgence, the Jayhawks have learned something else about conference play — sometimes a team gets
Since the showdown in Boulder, both the Jayhawks and Buffaloes are undefeated and both have beaten a Top 25 team. Colorado beat then No. 23 Nebraska 70-53 on Jan. 23.
a second chance. The 22nd-ranked Jay-
hawks (16-6, 6-3) will realize that chance
tonight when they play Colorado (11-7, 4-
4).
"They've got the momentum going, and so do we," Washington said. "Hopefully, with them having to come to our place and the way we've been playing, we can put a good defensive effort on the floor."
Defense isn't the only area in which Kansas has improved. After being outrun by a deep Colorado team, the Jayhawks' bench play has improved tremendously.
"We just didn't have the depth (against Col
orado) — that was the bottom line," Washington said. "We did not have people to step up and give us the quality minutes that we needed. The last three games we've been getting some help from the bench. Heather (Fletcher), Selena (Scott) and Shandy (Robbins) have all done a nice job for us."
Despite the resurgent play and 18 game winning-streak the Jayhawks have at Allen Fieldhouse, the team expects a tough game tonight.
"I don't think they're in for a big surprise," said sophomore Jennifer Jackson. "Our Texas Tech game was on TV, and coaches talk to each other, so they're going to know that we've improved a lot. We're going to be a different team than they saw the first time, though, so hopefully we'll be able to come back, get the win and a little revenge for last time."
Continued from page 1A
sometime in the third quarter, the celebration began. What started as wild cheering and occasional tears of joy, flowed out onto the streets of downtown Denver and became a wild celebration.
Screaming and honking and cheering and still more tears filled the streets. This was too good to be true. Our team is now twice crowned World Champions.
Win celebrated in Denver
News stations were there filming it and occasionally were in the middle of it, and the police were there regulating it.
Flags were waving in people's faces and fans were bouncing into one another, but on this night at this point it didn't matter. I hugged people I would not normally hug and gave high fives to anyone with a hand. It was an incredible experience.
Some people, more infected with Bronco fever than others, jumped through fires started by stray fire crackers and got rowdier as the celebration grew longer and larger.
This alarmed police and the tear gas came out. Fortunately, by this time I had headed home to Fort Collins, but the scene was the same, screaming fans coupled with authoritative cops celebrating the feat that we had all waited so long for.
Throughout the state of Colorado, people, fanatics, filled the streets of their towns and screamed whatever came into their minds. This was an incredible moment for the entire state, all the painful memories and all the heart ache of those "other Super Bowls" had been erased.

Renovations excite Kansas baseball team
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Opening day for the Kansas baseball team is less than two weeks away, and last Friday the team got to practice outside for the first time. Andpracticing outside meant practicing in the newly renovated Hoglund-Maupin Stadium.
Although practice was a little cold, the thrill of playing on the new field was enough to inspire the players and has them anticipating the season.
"We're at the point where we want to get outside and feel the dirt and grass between our toes," coach Bobby Randall said.
Weather permitting, the team will be feeling the cold and grus all.
dirt and grass all week.
Being outside and playing on the field will not only give the players a chance to get some live action but also
Baseball
will allow them to develop a feel for the highly coveted "home-field advantage."
"This feels more like a Division-I ballpark now," said Sparky Wilhelm, senior third baseman. "Seeing it makes you take pride in the way you play and pushes you to represent your school better."
While taking greater pride in their playing is important to the entire squad, the players' excitement is in the possibility that the new stadium could increase attendance.
The renovations have increased the seating capacity from 1,300 to 2,500. Included in that increase were 212 luxury box seats, which fans who desire a better view can purchase. This section is for season-ticket holders and features backs on the seats and front-row viewing.
On the field, things have changed, too. Randall said there was now more off-the-field storage space, and the dugouts had been doubled in size.
Sophomore shortstop John Nelson said, "Now everyone can fit when there is a rain delay."
The stands were extended down each baseline to accommodate the increased capacity, and a new press box was built. The concession areas were revamped, and the restrooms were rebuilt. An increase in space underneath the stands creates a courtyard-like environment. The whole complex is enclosed by a iron fence with light posts, resembling a new major league ballpark.
"It's a ballpark now, not a stadium," Randall said.
And with the renovated ballpark comes increased expectations.
"People are going to go out to see the stadium, and we hope they will enjoy the games and come back," junior outfielder Brett Kappelmann said.
The players and coaches said they realized that if the team was winning games, the fans would continue to support it.
"If we get good fan turnout, we can produce as good an atmosphere as any school in the Big 12," junior catcher Shane Wedd said.
The stadium, commonly referred to as "the Hog," will be dedicated March 6 in Forrest Hoglund's honor. Hoglund, an original donor of the park, donated an additional $1 million at the end of last year to make the renovations possible.
Coaches optimistic that Big 12 will have good representation in upcoming NCAA tournament
OSU's Eddie Sutton thinks four universities should make the cut
The Associated Press
Say all you want about power ratings, but the Big 12's basketball coaches generally think the conference is in good shape and will be well represented in the NCAA tournament.
The Big 12 is only rated No. 8 nationally in the latest RPI listing, which is something the tournament selection committee uses in determining the teams that will receive at-large bids.
The RPI comprises three factors — winning percentage against Division I teams, strength of schedule and opponents' strength of schedule.
Kansas, which spent its fair share of time ranked No. 1 the past two seasons, leads the conference with an RPI rating of 16. Missouri is next at 31, followed by Nebraska (44), Oklahoma State (46), Texas (50), Oklahoma (54) and Kansas State (69).
"There's no doubt, I think the league is down a little hit," Oklahoma State coach Eddie Sutton said Monday. "Right now, I think there's five or six
teams that are really good ball clubs and can go play with a lot of people. I'll be very surprised if we don't get at least four teams (in the NCAA tournament)."
Kansas won the past two league titles easily, but now is among the teams chasing Texas for the championship. The Jayhawks fell out of the Associated Press Top 25 this week for the first time since January 1991.
"The last two years, we were really, really good, and there was a little gap between us and everybody else," Coach Roy Williams said. "This year, it is so competitive on every night that I think the homecourt advantage is less in effect this year than it's ever been in the league. You better be ready to play every night, regardless of who you play or where you're playing."
Baylor coach Harry Miller also mentioned parity when discussing the strength of the league.
"We've still got very, very good teams that people may underestimate," he said. "I think we're in a situation now where these people are beginning to knock off each other, but we've still got some teams that are good."
Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson said the league's national ranking
BIG 12 CONFERENCE
could affect how many teams get invited to the NCAA tournament but said the same issue arose every year.
How many teams got in last year? Four? I don't see us getting less than four this year," he said. "I don't think it's going to be any different than last year, and I think it's because the league is so competitive inside the league."
Texas is just 12-9 overall because of a slow start against difficult nonconference teams. But at 7-1, the Longhorns are atop the league rankings, and they have a favorable schedule for the second half of the season.
If Texas is able to win the regular-season title, several coaches said that should be more than enough to merit an at-large bid.
"I'm fairly certain if they keep playing the way they are, they're not going to have to worry about that," Kansas State coach Tom Asbury said. "They're going to be worried more about seeding than they are 'if.'"
Texas coach Rick Barnes took a pragmatic approach in discussing his team's chances.
"I think right now you've just got to worry about winning basketball games," he said. "That takes care of everything else. If you win, you go. If you don't win, you don't go."
Missouri's Norm Stewart had the same outlook. He said it seemed every year people came up with reasons why some Big 12 teams should or should not be invited.
"The way I always tell our ball club, if you want to avoid that, take the doubt out of it," he said.
Texas has arguably the most talented starting lineup in the league, and the continuing emergence of center Chris Mihm has strengthened that argument.
The 7-foot sophomore was the Big 12 player of the week after having 17 points and 11 rebounds against Oklahoma and following that with a 20-point, 17-rebound effort against Massachusetts. He has produced six straight double-doubles.
Texas A&M coach Melvin Watkins said Mihm was playing like a professional.
"Matter of fact, he should look at going hardship, I imagine." Watkins said, laughing. "I'd like to see that."
Olympic drug committee members consider drafting a drug policy and preventing IOC from enforcing decisions
The Associate Press
LAUSANNE, Switzerland — The U.S. anti-drug chief criticized the International Olympic Committee yesterday, saying its legitimacy has been damaged by alleged corruption, lack of accountability and the failure of leadership in the Olympics bribery scandal.
"These events have tarnished the credibility of the movement," Barry McCaffrey, director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy, said during the opening of an anti-doping conference.
McCaffrey and European government officials demanded that a proposed anti-doping agency be kept out of the control of the scandal-tainted IOC.
The IOC's plan to develop uniform drug-related sanctions for all Olympic federations suffered another setback as one IOC executive committee member said that such a system would not stand up in court.
In his opening address to the three-day conference, IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch called for a new drive to wipe out "this odious and unhealthy form of cheating."
Nine IOC members have resigned or been expelled for receiving cash payments, gifts and other favors stemming from Salt Lake City's winning bid for the 2002 Winter Games. Representatives of several governments said the core of the IOC's credibility had been hurt.
But he could not avoid the focus of attention being turned on the corruption scandals, which have plunged the IOC into the worst crisis of its 105-year history.
McCaffrey urged the IOC to consider institutional
reform, open books and financial records. He called for an elected membership, which would be accountable and responsible.
The British sports minister was equally blunt
"Their internal system of organization and election must be based on democracy, accountability and honesty," Tony Banks said. "The British government expects the IOC to clean up its act."
German sports minister Otto Schilly said the IOC had to be completely reorganized.
The government officials repeatedly said the proposed anti-doping agency had to be fully independent and not controlled by the IOC.
OLYMPIC GAMES
Samaranch said the agency should be autonomous. During the weekend, he proposed that the Olympic drug chief Prince Alexandre de Merode head the agency on a day-to-day basis.
"We don't believe the IOC should be that agency. The issue of doping goes beyond the IOC," said Banks, who suggested the body be created under the aegis of the United Nations or World Health Organization.
On the controversial issue of drug sanctions, proposals of an IOC working group to streamline drug policies around the globe already ran into obstacles, and a plethora of different views were put forward at the conference.
Following the objections and reservations of several international federations, IOC executive board member Jacques Roges also came out against a uniform agreement binding all federations to abide by a unified medical code. The IOC proposal includes a minimum two-year suspension for serious doping offenses.
"You have to be reasonable; this is not a debate in black and white," said Rogge. "You cannot compare athletes. Some careers span eight years, some span 20 years. Sanctions have to be adapted to that."
In case of an imposed uniform code, he said civil courts would never accept it.
An IOC panel proposed that athletes face lifetime suspensions and fines of up to $1 million for serious cases of intentional doping and suggested selective bans for some first-time offenders.
The world soccer federation has said the proposals were too tough and unworkable, while the international swimming federation said a unified anti-doping stance would be impossible under such circumstances.
Olympic skating champion Johann Olav Koss, representing the IOC athletes' commission, said the group supported the two-year sanction and that it should be applied to all sports.
On a day when little went Samaranch's way, de Merode partly blamed him for setting the anti-doping program a decade back by opposing the establishment of an anti-doping agency in 1989 on budgetary grounds.
"Samaranch opposed this, as did practically the whole executive committee. It was shot down by 90 percent of the people who favor it now," de Merode told the Paris sports paper L'Equipe.

Missouri freshman living up to hype
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — In two short weeks, Keyon Dooling has gone from a confused, frustrated freshman to one of the best players in the Big 12 and certainly the most crowd-pleasing.
On Jan. 16, Dooling spent most of the second half of a game at Colorado on the bench with his head buried in his hands after an on-court tantrum. There were rumblings that the heralded recruit, the conference's preseason freshman of the year, wanted to transfer from Missouri.
Coach Norm Stewart refuted that talk and handed the reins to Dooling. The last three games he's been playing a game of can-you-top-this, scoring 15 points against Kansas, leading the team with 19 points against Kansas State and outscoring Baylor for almost all of the first half before beating his 3-day-old career high with 22 points, four assists and four steals on Saturday.
The 6-3 Dooling has six dunks in the last two games. His array of one-on-one moves and dazzling dribbling skills often leave defenders turned around, like the time he used a double crossover learned from studying Philadelphia 76ers star Allen Iverson on TV to whip the Baylor defense for a lavup.
"Quick as a cat, can shoot the ball, great passer, guy who can really turn a crowd on," Baylor coach Harry Miller said.
"He's everything he was advertised to be."
Miller wasn't done with the praise, not by a long shot.
"What you've got to do is work through all the gyrations." Miller
M
said. "Ignore the gyrations because he hypnotizes you like a cat going after a canary. That's what we did several times. We watched the gyrations, and next thing you know, poof, he's gone."
Not bad for a player with only three college starts.
"It seems like every time I get the ball I'm feeling more comfortable," Dooling said. "I hope that continues."
He said the problems were finished in his relationship with Stewart, coaching his 32nd year at Missouri. In the early season, Stewart pointed out Dooling's turnovers as much as his breathtaking moves, worked him into the rotation at his own pace and didn't allow Dooling to talk to the media until last week.
"We've had our ups and downs, but everything is mellowed out," Dooling said. "We're just going to continue to take everything in stride, and we'll be fine.
"The college game, nothing is given to you easy. You have to go out and earn everything you get," he said.
Dooling's frustrations at Colorado seem long forgotten to Stewart, who gave him one early start against Nicholls State, then put him in a reserve role until after the rematch at Kansas.
"He's been really exemplary in the way
he's handled everything, the way he's handled not starting but playing a lot of minutes," Stewart said. "Now you're home and you're comfortable, so you let him go."
1980-81
Prior to Dooling's three-game coming out party, he was averaging a quiet six points and three assists. If Stewart had started Dooling from the

beginning, there's no telling what he might have done by now. Or how long he'd be around for a different reason.
Dooling has skills comparable to former Saint Louis star Larry Hughes, the eighth pick of the NBA draft this year after only one season in college. The difference is that Coach Charlie Spoonhour gave him the ball from the get-go and then got out of the way.
Hughes, who averaged 20 points and led Saint Louis to the NCAA tournament, has better shooting range and is two inches taller, but Dooling is quicker and every bit Hughes' equal when it comes to leaving the crowd in awe. And although Dooling's outside shot needs work, it can be a clutch weapon as shown by his late 3-pointer that helped to seal a victory against Kansas State last week.
He vowed to work after practice for as long as it took to perfect that aspect of his game. Just as he spent "hundreds and millions" of hours honing his double-crossover dribble move.
"I really need to get that jump shot down, so I can be more of a double threat and people stop sagging off me, trying to take away my drive," he said.
Dooling has progressed so far and so fast that Albert White, previously Missouri's go-to guy, at times found himself with a front-row seat during Saturday's 18-point victory against Baylor.
Walter Payton diagnosed with rare liver disease
ROSEMONT, III. — NFL great Walter Payton has a rare liver disease and needs a transplant, his doctor said yesterday.
The Associated Press
The 44-year-old former Chicago Bears star is being placed on a list to receive a new liver, said physician Joseph Lagattuta.
The cause of the disease, primary sclerosing cholangitis, is not known. However, it is not related to alcohol, steroids, hepatitis or any kind of immunodeficiency disease. Lagattua said.
Symptoms of the disease, which blocks the bile ducts and leads to cirrhosis, are fatigue, followed by yellow in the pigment of the eyes and skin, he said.
The one-year survival rate is 88 percent for those who receive a liver transplant, and the long-term survival rate is very promising, Lagattuta said. Most people can return to a normal, active life, he said.
Patients in Payton's condition
survive an average of two years without a transplant, the doctor said.
Only three in 100,000 people develop the disease known as PSC, he said.
Payton said he called the news conference yesterday because of the speculation about his obvious weight loss. The Hall of Famer appeared gaud at his son Jarrett's news conference last week to announce he would play football for the University of Miami.
"Right now, I'm still healthy, even though I look like I've lost weight," Payton said.
Nicknamed "Sweetness" during his playing days, Payton is the NFL's all-time leading rusher with 16,726 yards. He was named to the Pro Bowl nine times in his 13-year career and was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1993. Payton was named to the NFL's 75th Anniversary All-Time team in 1994.
He set numerous school and NCAA records at Jackson State and was the Bears' first-round draft pick in 1975. He led the Bears to their only Super Bowl appearance and victory following the 1985 season and retired two years later.
Payton was named to the Bears' board of directors in 1997.
After football, Payton has dabbed in numerous business ventures and auto racing. He is owner of Walter Payton Roundhouse Complex in Aurora, west of Chicago, which includes a pub and his own Hall of Fame museum. He's a minority owner of a power equipment firm and an Indy Car-t team — Payton-Coyne Racing. He is also a founding director of First Northwestern Bank in Arlington Heights.
The father of a teen-age son and daughter, Payton is a cooking and movie buff and owns an extensive film library. He lives in South Barrington, a suburb northwest of Chicago.
Coach resigns as Pitt's troubles mount
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — The surprise isn't that the University of Pittsburgh is searching for a new basketball coach but that the Panthers are doing it now, instead of March.
Coach Ralph Willard, who has spent much of the season defending his team's uneven play on the court and his players' assorted problems off it, resigned Monday with three years left on his contract.
Willard's resignation came two weeks after the Panthers' struggling program was blemished by freshman guard Fred Primus' arrest for stealing $2,200 worth of jewelry during a trip to Villanova.
Willard also allowed guard Kellii Taylor to
rejoin the team after missing six games for alcohol rehabilitation.
Athletics director Steve Pederson, who confirmed last week that Willard's job performance would be evaluated, already is searching for a replacement. Pederson wouldn't speculate about a possible successor, but already being mentioned is former St. John's coach Fran Fraschilla, who once worked with Pederson.
Willard, who turned down an offer in May 1997 to become the Boston Celtics' general manager, also will start looking for another job. Celtics coach Rick Pitino has long hinted he would like to rehire Willard, his assistant at Kentucky and with the New York Knicks.
Pitt (11-9) began the season 6-0, including an upset victory over defending national champion Kentucky. That moved the Panthers into the Top 25, but they then lost 9 of 13 before defeating No. 23 Miami 60-54 on Saturday.
Neither Willard nor Pederson would admit to a strained relationship, but athletics department sources told The Associated Press last week that problems between the two worsened with the Primus arrest. According to the sources, Pederson was adamant that Primus be thrown off the basketball team immediately, but Willard apparently wanted the situation to be reevaluated at a later date.
Willard, 52, was 60-75 with no NCAA tournament appearances in five seasons at Pitt. The Panthers (11-9) play tonight at Georgetown.
Monmouth ends NCAA's longest Division I losing skid
The Associated Press
WEST LONG BRANCH, N.J. — When he arrived home an hour after Monmouth University ended the nation's longest Division I losing streak, Coach Dace Calloway's telephone answering machine was blinking with 16 messages.
Most of the calls were from friends, fellow coaches, alumni and family — the same people who had called before to tell Calloway to hang in there as the losses piled up through this season's first 19 games.
"I have call waiting on the answering machine, and as one person was leaving a message, you could hear it beep in," Calloway said yesterday, a little more than 12 hours after his
"What I'm feeling is relief — it just hits you," Calloway said. "After that, you're just happy for the kids because it could have been very easy to pack it in, especially the young guys. They could have said we'll do
Hawks defeated Wagner 66-61 to end a 22-game skid.
As the final seconds ticked off Monday night, many in the crowd of 1,117 inched closer to the floor. At the final buzzer, they celebrated wildly, reminiscent of three years ago when the Hawks beat Rider to win the Northeast Conference tournament and their first NCAA Tournament berth.
it next year. This has been a tough time, but we have continued to work, and we've been right there the last couple of games."
"The thing that clicked in me after
the win is that it took me 20
games to get that feeling," said freshman Alpha Bangura, whose four free throws led the victory, the Hawks' first since Feb. 16, 1980.
Calloway said he wasn't as worried about the losing trend as much as he was about his players.
"I've been more concerned with our guys," he said. "I knew we had some talent, but we hadn't been able to get the win. We just needed something to get us over. When the adversity hit, we stepped up and made the plays."

Web abortionist list ruled death threat
The Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — A federal jury ruled yesterday that a Web site and "wanted" posters listing abortion doctors' names and addresses amounted to death threats, ordering the site's authors to pay damages of more than $100 million.
Striking a blow to militant online tactics in the fight against abortion, the verdict could redefine what is considered constitutionally protected political speech. The anti-abortion materials contained no explicit threats of violence, only veiled messages.
"The jury saw the posters for what they are — a hit list for terrorists," said Gloria Feldt, the president of Planned Parenthood, the main plaintiff in
Defendants had said they would not pay any damages, no matter what the verdict.
the case. "Whether these threats are posted on trees or on the Internet, their intent and impact is the same."
One of the defendants, Catherine Ramey, sobbed as the verdict came in, after 4 1/2 days of deliberations.
"This is a moral and constitutional outrage," Ramex said afterward.
She had testified that she would not as much as offer a tissue to an abortion provider if he or she
She criticized the key ruling by the judge, which defined threat as by a "reasonable person," rather than as something that made lawless action "imminent."
At issue was the "The Nuremberg Files" Web site, which lists hundreds of "baby butchers" and invites readers to send in such personal details as their home addresses, license plate numbers and even the names of their children. The similar Wild West-style posters offered a $5,000 reward for information about the "Deadly Dozen" doctors branded "Gully of Crimes Against Humanity."
was shot.
Microsoft accused of falsifying evidence
The Associated Press
Three times, doctors whose names appeared on the list were killed, most recently last October when Dr. Barnett Slepian was gunned down by sniper fire in his home outside Buffalo, N.Y. His name on the Web site was promptly crossed through.
WASHINGTON — In a dramatic courtroom confrontation, the government yesterday accused Microsoft Corp. of falsifying a video demonstration aimed at showing severe performance problems caused by government attempts to modify its popular Windows 98 software.
"I believe, from what I've seen here is, they filmed the wrong system," said James Allchin, a senior vice president and top computer scientist at Microsoft. He later added, "I'm not."
sure they would do anything like that" to mislead the judge.
Justice Department lawyer David
Justice Depart.
Boies stopped the video demonstration in mid-frame to show a subtle inconsistency: a software title bar that suddenly changes in the
middle of the test. The video had been played in court Monday.
Boies charged — and Allichn
acknowledged — the change indicated that the test actually was completed using a version of Windows unaffected by the government's modifications.
"In this particular case, I do not think the (government) program had been run," Allchin said. But he insisted that performance problems exist saying, "I personally tested this, and I know the problem exists."
Boles appeared jubilant as he pressed onward, "How in the world could your people have run this program?"

Computer scientist Edward Felten
Allchin said the government's efforts slowed some functions and prevented others from running at all.
The government says Microsoft's design forces consumers who use Windows also to use its browser, discouraging them from using popular rival software from Netscape Communications Corp.
Clinton proposes school repair plan
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—With one-third of America's schools in urgent need of repair, the Clinton administration wants to raise nearly $25 billion for renovations through tax credits for bonds.
The Republicans who run Congress support the idea in general, but they say too much of President Clinton's plan targets innermy schools. The GOP wants more spent in growing suburbs and neglected rural areas.
There is little question about the need. The American Society of Civil Engineers last year gave public schools an 'F' in a survey of the nation's greatest infrastructure problems.
That report found that a third of all elementary and secondary schools need some repair, with 14 million children attending class in substandard buildings.
Some recent examples: A high school track team in suburban Burnside, Ill., held practices at a prison with better facilities. At some New York City schools, urinals were hidden behind plywood so bathrooms could become classrooms.
The report estimated that renovation of America's schools would cost $112 billion, with another $60 billion needed to provide space for an expected 3 million new students for the next 10 years.
Rather than asking Congress for sharp increases in direct spending, something the GOP is reluctant to do. Clinton proposed Monday in his fiscal 2000 budget the creation of tax credits aimed at spurring investors to buy bonds that would raise almost $25 billion during two years for school repair and modernization.
Total cost of the tax credits is pegged at $3.7 billion during five years.
Clinton told the National School Boards Association in a speech Monday that the credit would help provide money to fix up 5,000 schools.
Half of the money would be set aside for up to 125 school districts with the most low-income students. The other half would be divived among the states or state officials to spend as they see fit.
Another $400 million would be set aside for certain needy Native American schools.

I strongly encourage you to take advantage of this wonderful event to learn about the different opportunities available to you, and to network with representatives from companies and organizations.

attend a career fair
1 Study the advance list of employers attending, so that you can plan ahead to meet the people you really want to make contact with.
2 Take a notebook and keep track of companies/organizations, names,and features about them that you want to remember. Take notes so that you will remember names,addresses,and important facts.
3 Dress and look your best.First impressions are lasting.
4 Have a resume with you if you are a junior or senior, in case they ask you for one. Take at least 15-20 copies of your resume to the fair. Your resume should be typed neatly and completely without errors.
5 In preparation, have some questions prepared to ask either about the company, or about work-related information.
6 Be prepared to state some of your ideas, goals, assets,and be prepared to listen.
7 Do not waste time! Talk to any official from any organization They are there to meet you, and you are there to learn!
8 Do not expect this to be a job fair. It is not. Do expect to get knowledge and contacts which may lead you to job opportunities.
9 Take advantage of every opportunity to learn about the world of work.
HOW TO
write a cover letter
A cover letter should always accompany a resume that is sent through the mail. It helps position your interests and qualifications in relation to the employer's needs, as well as indicate what action you will take next. But most important, it gives employers signals of your personality, style, and ability - important elements in the hiring decision. The cover letter also:
- catches the reader's attention
- persuades the reader about you
- convinces the reader with more evidence
- moves the reader to acquire your services
Opening paragraph grabs the readers attention and establishes your interest in employment
Body paragraph demonstrates your ability to add value to the company and highlights your key strengths and abilities
Closing paragraph compels or ensures follow-up action and extends your appreciation for being considered
write a resume
One
Gather your raw material. Before writing one word of your resume, put together an accomplishments history, including your most significant achievements from work, hobbies, volunteer projects, school, extracurricular activities, travel, and other life experiences you feel are worth noting. Brainstorm and write down everything at this point that you feel may have merit. Temporary headings can help you brainstorm. Following are some headings to spark ideas and help you organize your information. Personal achievements (e.g., financing your education, overcoming obstacles) Education (e.g., classes related to your career goal, certifications, special training) Activities and Honors (e.g., student organizations, professional associations, scholarships, academic achievements, sororities or fraternities) Volunteer Experience (e.g., church, civic groups, hospitals, tutoring) Work Experience (e.g., paid/unpaid, part/full-time, internships, military) Important Career Related Skills (e.g., computer proficiency, foreign languages) Hobbies and Interests (e.g., planning trips, managing personal investments)
S t e p T w o
Select the information you will use.
Grade, select, and reject your information until you have what you feel most positively represents your background relevant to the employers needs. Tailor your resume to best market yourself for the position. Brevity and clarity are crucial. Create the impression that while the paper document is good, the "best" is yet to come (in an interview). Your resume should not tell everything about you. If it does, it may become a liability.
develop a list of references
Start to develop your list of references by first identifying as many potential references as possible. You might consider current or former bosses or co-workers, professors, volunteers or volunteer coordinators with whom you have worked, etc.Do not use roommates, friends or family members as references unless you have also worked with them in a professional relationship.
You will generally be asked to provide three to five references. It is a good idea to have a "backup" on the list.
You will want to include your reference's: name, current title, agency or organization with which they are affiliated. Be certain everything is correct!

New bill may change residency restrictions
(USPS 650-640)
By Kristi Reimer Kansan staff writer
A University of Kansas student is trying to gather support for a bill in the Legislature that would make it easier for some out-of-state students to gain residency status and pay in-state tuition.
Sean Brennan, a law student originally from Wahoo, Neb., is one of several students who approached state Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, about having been denied in-state tuition despite having made Lawrence their permanent homes.
Their stories prompted Sloan to sponsor legislation easing the requirements at Board of Regents institutions.
RESIDENCY
"They work here, they've bought a home, their cars are registered here, they vote here," Sloan said. "If students show a commitment to the community by becoming homeowners and have all the
Under the bill, a student who meets the following conditions for one year would be considered a resident and pay in-state tuition:
owns property in Kansas
- registers vehicles in Kansas
- has a Kansas drivers license
- registers to vote in Kansas
earns 7.5 percent of income from Kansas employers
other trappings, they should be considered Kanss."
The bill states that a student who owns property in Kansas, registers all vehicles in Kansas, has a Kansas driver's license, is registered to vote in Kansas and who earns 75 percent of his or her income from Kansas employers for one year would be considered a resident.
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost, said that if the bill was passed, applicants to the University would no longer have to prove they did not come to

KU Internet service paralyzed
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
A large part of the University of Kansas' Internet service was paralyzed yesterday for more than two hours, leaving students and faculty without access to e-mail and Web sites.
The problem began when a Computer Center router, which is a device that sends data between networks, failed to work properly with a newly installed set of software and hardware. Concerns a customer assistant at the Computer Center.
Dave Ferguson, a customer assistant at the Computer Center,
described the router as the backbone of the server system.
He said that when the network's spinal cord was severed, the body attached to it — some of the biggest servers at the University — became paraplegic.
Ferguson said that the Computer Center had received many complaints from students who were unable to access the Internet or e-mail accounts.

"I think it's creating a real issue," she said.
Bill Klein, the assistant director of Network and Telecommunications Services, said that there had not been problems Tuesday when the programming was tested.
When the hardware installation took place yesterday morning, it was a different story.
The hardware and software upgrade would have improved the router's performance and the servers connected to it, which include raven, eagle, falcon, kuhub.
Bill Pesek, the production service manager for Academic Computing Services, said that most of the affected servers were related to academics, research and the administration. One of the affected servers stored the Peoplesoft program, which keeps track of KU personnel and payroll

Pesek said that no corruption had been detected and that no long-term damage was expected to occur to the data.
Klein said the problems led to the removal of the new program and hardware and reverting to the earlier setup. The servers were working by 5 p.m. yesterday.
Klein said his department would not give up on the new software and hardware vet.
He said that it would work with the company that designed the system and would try and find the problem with the router.
After all of the problems have been corrected, it would try to reinstall the system, Klein said.

When they reinstall the software and hardware, it will be an early-morning job that will take the router and servers down for two hours.

Senate sets appeals process for campaigns
By Nadia Mustafa Kansas staff writer
Student Senate passed a bill last night allowing candidates to appeal elections commission decisions.
The bill allows candidates to appeal to the University Judicial Board regarding decisions on campaign procedures, such as campaign spending limits. The bill does not allow appeals regarding decisions on election procedures, such as ballot tabulation.
Dave Stras, graduate senator, said that the appeals process would prevent misapplications of University code, student rights and responsibilities and state and local laws. He said that the bill had to be passed last night because a delay would limit candidates' chances to appeal this semester.
"It's really important to protect civil rights when it comes to elections," Stras said. "This bill puts appeals in front of a law professor and law students."
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator, said the bill should not have been passed last night. He said that there was false urgency because some senators wanted to appeal the elections commission's decision to retain spending limits.
"It just gives coalitions another opportunity to up-end what the elections commission has done." Hoffman said.
Senate also passed a bill giving candidates the right to be identified by coalition names on the ballot.
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, said that there was no need for Senate to pass the bill because on Monday the elections commission had revised its initial elections code to include coalition names on the ballot.
"to be consistent, Senate should stay out of elections politics," he said. "If you do it the right way, taking the coalition names off the ballot might not be a bad thing."
Stras said that it was important for Senate to include candidates' rights to be identified by coalition in Senate's rules and regulations to avoid a conflict with the elections commission next year.
"It's much better to pass it after the commission has agreed with us instead of having to do it next year over their heads," he said.

Credits awarded to international students
By Heather Woodward
Kansan staff writer
International undergraduate students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences will receive credit for English as a second or English as a foreign language classes at the Applied English Center.
At Monday's meeting, the College Assembly passed a proposal that would grant students three to nine hours of credit after completing the required level of English language proficiency, as measured by a test at the AEC.
"I think it's a fairness issue," said Betty Soppela, director of the AEC. "International students are doing a very high level of foreign language study, like a fifth or

Soppelsa said she did not know when students would start receiving credits from the University.
Joe Potts, director of International Student Services, said he thought the proposal would make the University competitive with other universities that allow ESL/EFL classes to be taken for credit.
doing this," Potts said. "In the face of rising costs, it will really help international students if we let these credits count toward graduation. It makes it much easier for them to afford the price of education at KU."
The proposal would make ESL/EFL courses worth credit in the hopes of retaining more students at a time when enrollment of international students is falling at the University.
Potts said he wanted international students to be rewarded in some way for their accomplishments.
"This is an excellent way to recognize their level of proficiency by the time they graduate from the University of Kansas." Potts said.

KU student semifinalist for journalism award
Michelle Tuckner, Woodbury, Minn., junior, is a semifinalist in the television broadcast news competition for the 1998-99 Hearst Journalism Awards Program.
This is the first time that the broadcast division has entered the contest. Tucker is an intern at WIBW Channel 13 in Topeka. She entered three stories she had produced for the station to a group of University teachers.
"I was honored just to be chosen," Tuckner said.
The group, who could only select two entrants for the national competition, chose Tucker's as one.
Tucker placed 7th out of 60 contestants and will submit three more stories for the second round of the competition in March.
If she is selected as one of three finalists, Tuckner will be flown to San Francisco and will compete during a long weekend. She would be asked to cover an on-the-spot news story.

Towel proves useless for putting out stove fire
A stove fire occurred at 1 p.m. Tuesday on the first floor of Jayhawk Towers, 1603 West 15th St., the KU Public Safety Office said.
Nobody was injured and only the towel andrug were burned in the fire.
A resident of the room tried to put the fire out with a towel but the towel caught fire, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey. The fire then spread to a rug, but the resident was able to stomp the fire out before the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department arrived, Bailey said.
Thief takes advantage of perfect opportunity
An opportunistic thief made use of a less than 10-minute time span to steal a laptop computer from an office in the Biological Teaching Resource Center, a KU Public Safety Office report said.
The computer, a Macintosh Powerbook G3 valued at $2,699, had only been out of the box for a day before its disappearance between 10:10 and 10:20 a.m. Tuesday, said Marceline Masten, an audio-visual technician in the center.
Masten and a student employee had been loading software on the computer throughout the morning when Masten left the office for a few minutes to check something on another floor. When she returned the computer was gone, she said.
"There were students in the center at the time, but nobody noticed anything
unusual," Masten said.
She said that normally all the center's computer equipment was either locked up or bolted down.
"Whoever did it was in the right place at the right time," she said. "It was just a fluke."

Neighbor, store alarm help in thieves' capture
Two men broke into Kaw Valley Industrial, 1105 East 23rd St., and took a '98 Yamaha Banshee 4-wheeler by loading it into the bed of their pickup truck late Monday night, a Lawrence Police report said.
The men set off the burglar alarm and police also got a call from a nearby resident who saw the pickup behind the building.
Although the men were gone when officers arrived at KV1, police caught up with the men and arrested them at the intersection of 7th and Rhode Island streets. The men were charged with burglary, theft and criminal damage to property.
Phony deposits, ATM assisted bank robber
Automatic teller machines make with drawing money easier for everyone — even bank robbers.
Between Sept. 28 and Oct. 10 a man stole $3,599.42 from US Bank, 901 Vermont St., by making phony deposits into his account and immediately withdrawing the funds through an ATM, Officer Matt Sarna of the Lawrence Police department said.
It wasn't until Dec. 29 that a US Bank investigator in Denver discovered the theft. Police have not arrested the thief, but they are investigating a suspect in Missouri.

Food tax elimination wins approval of House
The 86-37 vote came on an amendment added to a bill that would give five counties authority to impose sales tax. A final vote on the bill, expected today, is needed to send the measure to the Senate.
TOPEKA — The House gave tentative approval to eliminate the 4.9 per
STATE
Under the amendment, the sales tax on food would be eliminated by 2002, and would cost the state about $230 million in revenue.
Many supporters saw the amendment as a replacement for the Graves proposal.
"The governor at this point still supports his idea for eliminating the property tax on vehicles," said Mike Matson, spokesman for Graves.
Meanwhile, Graves' plan to double the income tax credit for people adopting children should easily pass the Senate when it comes up for debate next week.
But Graves' other tax-cutting ideas, including eliminating vehicle taxes, might face trouble with the House Taxation Committee where members are considering alternatives.
"Everything is in play. There is a lot of shifting sand," said committee chairman David Adkins, R-Leawood.
Ambassador nominee pays off settlement
WASHINGTON — In an attempt to clear his record, Richard Holbrooke, nominated as ambassador to the United Nations, has agreed to pay a $5,000 civil settlement of allegations that he improperly contacted a former government colleague, a friend of Holbrooke's said yesterday.
NATION
The veteran 57-year-old diplomat would not be required to admit wrongdoing under the draft settlement — worked out with the Justice Department — of allegations that Holbrooke violated federal lobbying laws, according to the friend, who spoke on condition of anonymity.
Top Justice Department officials are still reviewing the agreement, but no changes are anticipated and it should be filed in court soon.
"He never asked any U.S. government official to do anything other than on behalf of the U.S. government," the friend said. "He's paying only to settle this and get it behind him."
The settlement should clear the way for President Clinton to send the nomination to the Senate. Eight months ago, Clinton announced that his choice for the high-profile U.N. post was Holbrooke, the chief architect of the 1995 Bosnia peace accord and last fall's cease fire in Kosovo.
■ Approved the following replacement senators: Sarah Hill, engineering senator; J.D. Jenkins, Nunemaker senator; Michael Henry, non-administrative senator; Kristen Chowning, law senator; and Tracie Schuler, graduate senator.

the state just to attend school or demonstrate an intent to stay in Kansas permanently in order to achieve in-state residency status.
Under the new bill, parents could buy a house in Kansas, put their child's name on the title and pay in-state tuition, she said.
"It's a radical change," she said. "The way it's written, just about any student could qualify as a resident."
McCluskey-Fawcett said that members of the Legislature had a responsibility to be good stewards of tax dollars and that Sloan's bill was not a wise use of state money.
"It's very problematic for the citizens of Kansas to be underwriting the cost of education for students whose parents didn't pay into the tax base and who are unlikely to pay into the tax base in the future," she said. "I'd be very surprised if it passes."
But Brennan sees the issue differently. He said the stringent residency requirements hurt not only students but the state as well.
"Saddling students with debt right now and taking away their ability to buy a home when they graduate — or to buy a car or to invest in Kansas — is a poor public policy," he said. "It would be better to provide them with the best education possible right now and leave them in a financial position to invest in the state after they graduate."
Brennan is attempting to locate students who feel they have been unfairly denied residency so they can lobby for a hearing before the House Education Committee, where the bill has been referred.
"My hope is that other students in this position will contact me so that we can demonstrate there are numbers of students affected by the current statute." he said.
Brennan has bought a home in Lawrence and considers himself a Lawrence resident. He said he approached the Office of the Registrar about applying for residency but was told he would probably be denied.
"I couldn't prove I was intent on remaining in Kansas indefinitely," Brennan said.
Nonresident tuition rates are more than triple resident rates. Resident undergraduates pay $68.05 per credit hour and graduate students pay $101 per credit hour. Nonresidents pay $283 per hour as undergraduates and $329.75 as graduate students.

Med center doctor says rare transplant could be common
By T. J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
A doctor at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., performed the first pancreas-kidney transplant in the Kansas City area last week.
The operation was performed by Daniel Murillo, a transplant surgeon at the Med Center. The transplant recipient was Larry Hatz, 55. of Overland Park.
Eventually Murillo said that he would like the Med Center to be a hospital that could perform between 15 and 20 pancreas-kidney transplant each year.
"The major breakthrough in doing it in Kansas City is offering it to people here, so they don't have to leave the city or the state to have this done," Murillo said.
Each year about 1,000 of these double transplant operations are performed across the world, Murillo said. Most of the operations were on Type-I diabetes patients who were in their 20s, 30s and 40s. Many of the patients also had experienced kidney failure or deficiency or were brittle diabetics with blood sugar levels that were hard to control.
He said that these transplant operations were relatively rare because of a short supply of organ donations and potential patients.
Amy Newman, Leawood graduate student and Type-I diabetic, said she had heard of the transplant operation and thought it sounded risky.
"There are a lot of things that your pancreas does besides produce insulin," Newman said. "If you take it out there is a good chance it is going to fail, and then what are you going to do?"
Murillo said that two other patients were waiting to have the procedure performed and
"The major breakthrough in doing it in Kansas City is offering it to people here so they don't have to leave the city or the state to have this done."
Daniel Murillo
Med Center transplant surgeon
about five others were being evaluated to see if the operation was right for them.
The double transplant often will help to stop the onset of many complications that could sometimes be associated with diabetes, including premature blindness and vascular problems in the hands and feet, Murillo said.
He said that Hatz had been taking insulin injections for 20 years and had dialysis treatment three times a week for six months before the operation.
"Since then he has had no dialysis, no insulin and other than taking the anti-rejection medication, he should lead a normal life," Murillo said.
Hatz is expected to be released from the Med Center tomorrow, nine days after his surgery. Murillo said.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said that pancreas transplants had not been common because the technology to perform them had not existed.
According to Murillo, advances in the anti-rejection medication used to keep the transplant patient's body from rejecting the new organs would allow a quick growth in the number of transplants performed.

Olympic spirit of unity, fairness jeopardized by inner corruption
Salt Lake City's performance as host of the 2002 Winter Olympics provides a what-not-to-do lesson in international business.
Six members of the International Olympic Committee lost their positions for accepting bribes, casting a shadow across the ideals of the Olympics.
It is imperative to the future of the Olympic games that officials and Olympic Committee President Juan Antonio Samaranch remedy the Salt Lake situation and prevent it from happening again.
The most important role of the IOC is to select the cities that will be the host of the Olympics. The recent dismissal of six IOC officials brought the Salt Lake City bribery scandal to the headlines. The officials were dismissed by Samaranch for accepting bribes from Salt Lake City lobbyists.
The Olympics have become a billion-dollar business. Corruption inevitably follows the money, allowing cities to purchase IOC votes and the games. According to The New
Salt Lake City bribery deters attention from hardworking athletes.
York Times, Salt Lake City invested $14 million in its campaign for the 2002 Winter Olympics, which is projected to bring $2.8 billion to the city
This scandal goes beyond bribery and poor business ethics. The real danger is a disillusionment with Olympic ideals, which would be a global tragedy and take away from the reason for the games; the athletes.
The Olympic dream must be saved. A University of Kansas track coach knows the thrill of Olympic competition and understands the dedication required of each athlete.
Tim Suchan, assistant track and field coach, competed in the high jump at the 1996 Olympic trials in Atlanta. Suchan was surprised with the scandal and thought it raised ethical questions.
The Olympic spirit is about equal
opportunity. Growing up, kids dream about competing in the Olympics, and if the kids work hard, they have a chance to fulfill that dream.
"It's a huge honor for a country to host the Olympics," Suchan said. "If it did come down to bribes, it takes away from the equal opportunity that is a part of the Olympics."
Fair competition and enforcement of ethical standards must be returned to the games, and the Olympic spirit must be revitalized.
the composition of the IOC is at the heart of the scandal. The committee, now reduced to 106 members, includes officials appointed by Samaranch for life. The committee must be reformed to provide equal representation of all nations, a democratic process of selecting members, and an ethical system for choosing host cities.
The dismissal of IOC members was only a small step in the right direction. Official apologies must be issued to countries that were short-changed and changes must be made to prevent future wrongs.

Book-buy Web site offers smart option
There are different places to pick up books that are cost efficient, such as Internet vendors or book exchange programs. Rather than ignoring these options and taking a big hit in the wallet, students should make the best financial choice.
One place students should take time to browse through is the KU Book Exchange Web site.
Set up by two KU students, Aaron Major, Deerfield, N.H., sophomore, and E.J. Reedy, Topeka freshman. The Book Exchange is a free, non-profit
Book exchange could flourish with increased participation.
campus organization dedicated to bringing information about getting the most money for used books to students at the University of Kansas.
Major and Reedy look for KU students who want to sell their books for more than they would get at area bookstores.
out by cutting out the middle man.
Students who can buy their textbooks from fellow students help each other
Students selling the books get more money by not settling for what the bookstores offers, and the student purchasing the textbook saves money because it's cheaper than bookstores' prices.
The Book Exchange list does not have every book for every student. But if more students participated in the Book Exchange, they would come out ahead in the costly game of buying textbooks.
The home for the KU Book Exchange is at http://www.ukans.edu/~kube.

Player salaries justified by public's indulgence
Perspective
professional athlete signing a contract for an ungodyd amount of money? Unless you're a professional athlete yourself, probably quite a few. You have to ask yourself — is anyone really worth nine figures?
Robert K.
Funk
coining@kansai.com
opinion@kansan.com
PETER HUNTER
There are some arguments in favor of the athletes. First, you have to consider that most players aren't paid the astronomical sums that get all the attention. My cousin
played pro baseball for years and walked away with little to show for it. One of the players' alleged objectives in the recently concluded basketball strike was to obtain some security for the lesser-paid players.
We have to vote with our dollars. No team would sign such a person if it thought that as a result, fans would quit buying tickets, products and cease watching the games on TV. The Knicks didn't hesitate to sign Sprewell because they know that after some initial scandal, no one will remember that Sprewell committed assault and battery against his former coach.
Second, the career of a professional athlete is relatively short. Where most people can easily work into their 60s and 70s, pro athletes rarely make it to 40. Because their careers are so brief, they need to make a lot of money quickly in order to be secure during retirement.
This isn't so bad when the players respect the game and inspire us to greatness in our own lives. I was fortunate enough to start watching basketball when Julius Erving was in his prime. Dr. J was an unbelievable athlete and a consumate gentleman. After Erving, there was Magic Johnson and Larry Bird, then of course Michael Jordan. Although someone will step up to fill the void left by Jordan, pro basketball has a much bigger problem to worry about. When an industry decides to accept the intolerable actions of someone such as Letrell Sprewell, its time for the market to correct the error.
Putting the economic analysis aside, how does one justify that many professional athletes make a whopping 100 times more than most schoolteachers? As I write this column, I'm wearing a Chicago Bulls hat and Nike Air Jordan shoes. I have a poster of Larry Bird on the wall. As disgusted as I am with the sport, I'll probably tune in and watch some games later this season. Every time we buy a product, attend a game or watch a game on television, we endorse the outrageous salaries paid to professional athletes. We might as well be putting the money in their pockets ourselves.
If we really want to change things, we should turn off the game and attend a Board of Education meeting instead.
Third, athletes face the constant threat that their careers could be shortened even further by injury. Although many blue-collar workers face a similar threat, the drop-in pay between the athletes' salaries and whatever contractual protection they might have bargained for is a little more severe than the drop-off between the wages of blue-collar workers and their disability pay.
No one, that is, except the kids.
The bottom line is that we're all hypocrites. We criticize the players for making so much money and for occasionally throttling their coaches. At the same time, we buy their products and watch their games.
This seems ridiculous until you consider that Jordan generated an estimated $10 billion a year for professional basketball. All of a sudden, he doesn't seem so greedy.
Fourth, many major CEOs make as much money as the top athletes, yet they don't catch flak like the athletes. We reason that they must be worth it or their companies wouldn't be making money and their shareholders and boards of directors wouldn't keep them around, right?
We often forget that the same analysis applies to professional sports, which is business too. The owners are willing to fork over so much money because the players generate that much. We gasped when we heard that Michael Jordan had signed a contract with the Bulls for $35 million a year, knowing that already he made $50 million a year from various endorsements.
We are like citizens who don't vote, then complain about the politicians.

Feedback
Police within rights to inspect drivers
We are very thankful that the police officer that stopped Diana Victor and asked if she had been drinking. Too many university students have been killed by drunk drivers. That said, while we realize that you were not intoxicated, he was perfectly within his rights to ask you if you had consumed alcohol that evening.
Think about it: You're driving down the road, it's dusk or dark outside, and you see some yahoo driving past you with his/her lights off.
It's probably more along the lines of "I hope that drunk doesn't take me or someone else out." What that officer had was probable cause to suspect that you had been driving while intoxicated.
What's your first thought? Probably not "Oh, that's nice, see the creative driver without the lights on."
Yes, leaving the lights off was a simple brain cramp on your part. But how is the officer supposed to just know that without asking?
In closing, we say to you,
Diana: check that console
completely before you pull
out of the parking place.
He could have made you "walk the line" if he had so chosen.
To the officer, we say:
THANK YOU for caring!
Keep up the good work.

Column disrespects uniformed officers
Diana Victor's column in Tuesday's paper was an unfounded attack on police officers everywhere.
The police are not party-
poopers in uniform; they are
just doing their job and try-
ing to keep the city safe.
Victor's insination that the officer who pulled her over was not a "good cop" is unfair.
Attempt at levity only gives insult
Victor is bitter that she got pulled over and is trying to take revenge on our men and women in blue.
When someone gets pulled over for speeding, driving drunk, or (God forbid) driving at night with their headlights off, it's not because of some personal vendetta the officer has against the driver; it's to protect other drivers out there from being hurt or killed.
While there are a scant few "bad cops" out there, just as there are "bad" people in every occupation on earth. The vast majority of police officers are good, honest people who are there to serve and protect.
In my eyes, anyone who disrespects an officer of the law, especially for something as sily as Victor's complaint, is an ungrateful fool.
The officer who pulled her over for driving at night without her lights on was doing his job, and doing it well. "Anything to drink tonight?" was a perfectly valid question.
Carrie Johnson Oklahoma City sophomore
Considering that Don Marquis is a professor of philosophy, there was a surprising lack of any argumentation in his column attacking the University's proposed diversity program.
Apparently, Marquis believes that the concept is so plainly ridiculous that he need not make arguments,
that he can simply make fun.
The U.S. populations not fully addressed in the Western Civilization requirement, such as African Americans and women, may not find the concept of academic recognition an opportunity for levity.
I would like to take this opportunity to respond to Professor Don Marquis' column in Tuesday's University Daily Kansan.
Jennifer Curry
Lenexa Junior
Diversity question no place for humor
Marquis' admittance to "making fun of the proposal" does not lessen the imbecility of his comments. He criticizes the diversity proposal as being too broad and suggests that courses would not be able to address issues of inequality, power and justice.
As a student here for several years, it is not often my experience that the words of faculty invoke such rage within me.
I would like to challenge Marquis, as a professor, to develop a better venue to address such issues than in the classroom, or possibly Marquis does not feel these problems need to be approached?
I feel that Marquis has failed to argue his point effectively for a number of students, myself included. It is my opinion that diversity issues are not an occasion for "levity" as suggested in his column.
In closing, I would agree with Marquis that university life can be grim, himself providing such an example.

KU alumna's life honored in Brokaw's book of heroes
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
Claudine "Scottie" Lingelbach was a Tom Brokaw fan long before she was featured in his book "The Greatest Generation." Lingelbach, a 1944 KU graduate, saw Brokaw on television talking about how her generation had endured the Great Depression, served in World War II and rebuilt the nation after the war. She was inspired to write him about her own service, and never expected her story would end up in Brokaw's book.
"I just thought he'd be interested in a little trivia. I never dreamed anything would come of it," said Lingelbach a volunteer at Spencer Art Museum.
A few months after she wrote to Brokaw, she received a call from his assistant, who set up an interview. Many calls followed.
While studying at the University of Kansas, Lingelbach, a Topeka native, was accepted into an auxiliary division of the Navy, Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service. Her acceptance into WA VES was announced in a *University Daily Kansan* article that she has keeps as a memento to this day.
WAVES assigned Lingelbach to work as a courier and administrative assistant to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
"I knew all of the military codes," Lingelbach said.
"The only one I didn't know was the code for the atomic bomb, the Manhattan Project."
Lingelbach said that KU had changed to a trimester system during World War II so that men could graduate faster and be drafted. She took advantage of that option and instead of walking down the hill, Lingelbach graduated in February at Hoch Auditorium.
Although Lingelbach never talked to Brokaw directly—all of her interviews were conducted by his assistants—she did receive an autographed copy of "The Greatest Generation," with a personal message.
Recently, she received a thank-you letter that included a big surprise. Brokaw said in the letter that he would donate money in Lingelbach's name to a few of her favorite charities. Lingelbach said she would name the KU Endowment Association, Coaches vs. Cancer, with which KU men's basketball coach Roy Williams is affiliated, and the Spencer Museum of Art.
"I want the museum to be able to purchase a piece of art by someone in the greatest generation," Lingelbach said.
Lingelbach, who lived in Missouri most of her adult life, moved back to Lawrence in 1986 and started working at the museum as a volunteer tour guide a year later.
Betsy Weaver, docent program coordinator at the museum, said, "Scottie's an ardent supporter of whatever she takes on. She goes at it wholeheartedly. It's those kinds of volunteers that we love to have."

Claudine Lingelbach is featured in a chapter of "The Greatest Generation" by Tom Brokaw. While serving in a volunteer women's corps in the Navy during World War II, Lingelbach handled top secret documents for the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Photo by Roger Nomer (KANSAN)
Brokaw's chapter on Lingelbach and two other women who served during the war contains a picture of Roy Williams with Lingelbach's grandson Scott Wilkonson, Denver sophomore, at a KU basketball camp.
"It was nice to hear someone else's account of my grandmother's life because she's too proud to brag about it," Wilkinson said. "I think it's almost become a full-time job for her now since the book came out."
Lingelbach said she had received dozens of phone calls and letters about her appearance in "The Greatest Generation."
"Not a day goes by that I don't hear from someone," she said. "I just feel so humbled to have been included in this book with these wonderful Americans."
Campus news groups use student forecasts
Kansan staff writer
By Jennifer Roush
KU meteorology students are getting a chance to forecast weather for campus news organizations.
Students in Curtis Hall's Forecasting Practicum class are providing weather forecasts to The University Daily Kansan and
KJHK 90.7 FM, the University's student radio station.
Students will began radio forecasts Monday, and the first print forecast will appear in Thursday's Kansan.
The forecasts are called in to the Kansan each afternoon, and in the morning and afternoon to KJHK.
Hall said that although the students weren't very accurate yet.
"It's a learning experience for them," he said. "I think it's good that the student newspaper and radio station would cooperate with us on this."
The students will furnish forecasts to the radio station and newspaper for the rest of the semester.

Stage transformed for frosty drama
Special to the Kansan
By Matt Cox
The St. Petersburg Ice Ballet will perform "Romeo and Juliet" at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Saturday at the Lied Center.
Award-winning ice skaters from Russia will take the stage to perform flips, slides and spins that put a new twist on the classic by Shakespeare.
"After a while you won't even realize they are on skates," said Kevin Whalen, office manager of The Bresner Management International.
A cast of 30 skaters will perform the classic to the music of Sergei Prokofiev.
Using advanced refrigeration techniques, the Lied Center stage will be transformed into an ice rink measuring 40 feet by 40 feet.
Students and the general public are invited to watch the rink construction tomorrow from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Lied Center.

then be spread on top of the plastic sheet.
Every 20 minutes for the next 18 hours workers will lightly mist the sheet down, and as the water settles, ice layers will be built. The workers will use squeegee-type devices to smooth out the layers.
After the show, the workers will take sledgehammers to the rink, chopping the ice up and dumping it in the back of the Lied Center to melt.
The plastic sheet will then be rolled up, and the crew members will be on their way to the next performance.
"Transforming the stage is somewhat of a performance in itself," said Anthony Bernal, a Shawnee sonhombre mating in theater.
Konstantin Rassadin, executive choreographer of the Kirov Ballet, designed the routine in a way that would keep the performers from bumping into one another.
The ballet company has visited the University twice
This tour began last November in G er m a n y before the company came to the
United States. The St.
Petersburg State Ice Ballet has performed other classics such as "Swan Lake" and "Sleeping Beauty" on ice in Korea, Holland, Canada and other countries. But "Romeo and Juliet" is a new challenge this season.
"This is a classic story that lends itself to any type of performance," Bernal said. "It definitely adds a different type of perspective."

How sweet it is.
The Kansas women's basketball team roared back from a half-time deficit and claimed a 65-57 victory against the Colorado Buffaloes last night at Allen Fieldhouse, avenging a Jan. 20 loss to the Buffaloes.
The Jayhawks have won four consecutive games since the loss at Boulder, Colo.
"This was a great win for us," said coach Marian Washington. "We beat a team that was obviously very good."
The game's first half was similar to the one in Boulder, with the Jayhawks struggling from the field and the Buffaloes jumping out to an early lead. Colorado hit 6 of 10 three pointers and led 34-28 at the half.
"It really took a tremendous effort in the second half to get back in the ball game and find a way to win it." Washington said. "That tremendous effort
ing a career-high 24 points and grabbing 11 rebounds. Johnson added 11 points, 10 rebounds and a season-high seven assists.
Sanford's big game came as no surprise to the center, who said the coaching staff had pointed out the Buffaloes' tendency to play loose defense on her in the previous meeting.
"When I saw the film, I was so mad at myself for not taking advantage of it," she said. "This time we were ready for that and we adjusted our offense."
The crucial move for Kansas was to get the ball into the post players after junior

Sanford led the second-half charge, scor-
Lynn Pride drew constant double-teams from the Buffalo defenders in the previous match-up.
"We knew we had to get the ball inside," Washington said. "We spent a lot of time trying to figure out what happened to us at Colorado, and basically they didn't play our post at all. We decided that we would just go in to them."
The strong effort from the Jayhawks' inside players couldn't have come at a better time, as Pride had a rare off-shooting night, hitting only 3 of 16 shots and scoring only eight points. Pride contributed by
leading the defensive effort that held Colorado to 33-percent shooting in the second half.
Colorado native Brooke Reves scored 14 points on seven of 10 shooting.
The win moves Kansas to 7-3 in conference play, which is third in the Big 12 Conference behind Texas Tech and Iowa State. With six games remaining, the Jayhawks are in position to make a run for the conference title.

Kansas signs 22 players for Allen's 'best class'
Richard Bachman/Kausar
By Michael T. Rigg
Kanson sportswriter
After being on the road for a good part of the last three months. Kansas football coach Terry Allen sat in his chair, kicked back and was all smiles yesterday as he officially announced 22 national letter of intent signings for the 1999 season.
"We are very excited about our class," said Allen, shortly before naming this class the best of his three signed at Kansas.
hailing this class the best of his staff are signed to honors.
The class features 15 high school players and seven junior college players. The junior college players fill what Allen described as very specific needs in the defensive line, safety, linebacker, and punter positions. Also among the junior college recruits are wide receiver Carl Nesmith and quarterback Dylan Smith. Smith earned junior college All-American honors last season
The Jayhawks were surprised earlier in the day when junior college All-America lineman Cliff Holloman backed out of a non-binding verbal commitment and signed a letter of intent with Kansas State.
Allen said Smith could come into Kansas and compete for the starting quarterback position next year, especially with the status of Zac Wegner up in the air.
Lyden Smith, in our opinion, was the best junior college quarterback available," said Allen. "And Carl Nesmith is truly an outstanding athlete."
"That's why they call it a non-binding commitment," Allen said. "Those things do happen on both sides of the coin."
Among the 15 high school seniors, Allen said that running backs Reggie Duncan and Harold McClendon could make an impact immediately.
Duncan was a SuperPrep Magazine All-America selection and is one of four players to commit to the Jayhawks from Ellison High in Killeen, Texas, in the past two years. Running back David Winbush is also from Ellison.
"I was doing back flips in my house at 11:30 on Monday night when I found out we got Reegie Duncan." Allen said.
Allen said the Jayhawks' winning percentage during the past few years had hampered his recruiting of some top players.
"In a number of cases, the number of wins and bowl game appearances have been a detriment to us," said Allen. "We just have to get kids to buy into the fact that this program is heading in the right direction."
Kansas' recent lack of wins didn't change the decision of junior college punter Joey Felliano, who committed to the Jayhawks last season but had to stay at Sacramento Community College because a math class didn't transfer.
"I're really excited," said Pelfiano. "We have a lot of talent coming in, and Coach Allen and his staff have done a very good job of getting everyone prepared for the upcoming season."
Gregory is out of slump, back on track

In Kansas guard Kenny Gregory's mind, his demotion from the starting line-up and his subsequent resurgence are unrelated.
But the numbers tell a different story. After starting the Jayhawks' first 18 games of the season, Gregory has come off the bench in the last three games. His play has improved exponentially.
Coming into the Big 12 regular season, the sophomore guard was the Jayhawks' leading scorer and most consistent offensive force. But beginning on Jan. 6, Gregory fell into a slump, failing to score in double figures in six straight games and shooting a miserable 35.1 percent from the field.
"It's just a coincidence," Gregory said.
"I was having a bad stretch," Gregory said. "There was either one of two things I could do. I could give in, or I could come out and compete."
Luckily for the baywalkers, Gregg did his best.
The 6-foot-6-inch guard returned to his explosive form.
Luckily for the Jayhawks, Gregory did the latter.
"Perhaps Kenny would have ended his slump without the line-up change," Williams said. "Kenny decided he was going to try to do some things better. He was not going to pack it in, but he was going to continue to fight."
Kansas coach Roy Williams agreed with Gregory that the guard's improvement was more a matter of time than a change in the rotation. Williams said the two had discussed Gregory's struggles prior to the demotion and his player knew it was time to step up his play.
coming off the bench to score 51 points in the last three games on 18-of-32 (65.3 percent) shooting from the field.
According to Williams that's exactly what Gregory has done since he started coming off the bench, especially on the defensive end. Gregory, who is not known for his defensive prowess, has improved his play on that end of the court in the last two games. In fact, Williams now feels comfortable using Gregory for that very reason.
"I told him in the Colorado game, 'Don't faint, but I might put you in for defensive purposes.'" Williams said.
Gregory said that was the first time he had been looked at as a defensive stopper.
"It made me feel proud and a little happy for him to say that about me of all people," Gregory said. "That boosted my confidence up and let me know that I can contribute on the defensive end."
Williams said Gregory also was contributing on the backboards.
"He has been giving a more concerted effort on rebounding, both offensively and defensively," Williams said. Gregory had a career-high eight rebounds against Kansas State on Monday. "He was not using his abilities," Williams said of Gregory's previous performance. "I don't know if it was laziness or tentativeness, but he is much more active now, especially on the boards."
Despite his increase in production, Gregory still would like to hear his name announced with the starting line-up.
"Definitely I want to start," said Gregory, who claimed he had never been a non-starter until last season. "If that doesn't happen the remainder of the season, I'm in a comfort zone and I'll just keep trying to play the way I've been or even better. Starting is a big deal to me, but it's not going to change my attitude towards the team or the way I play."
Commentary
Kansas' recruits next step in team reconstruction
Welcome to Signing Day 1999.
Yesterday morning, thousands of high school football players, most at silly press-conferences orchestrated by overzealous principals and surrounded by giddy cheerleaders, slapped their big John Hancocks across the dotted line and, in the process, made countless numbers of old, crusty alumni very, very happy. For the next four years, these will be the guys who help to make or break a football program.
So while I sit diligently by the fax
machine, waiting,
for my letter-of-
intent to arrive
(you didn't know I
was a highly
recruited dropback
quarterback
and a Kansan
columnist), I will
pass on a few
thoughts. No pun
intended...
Speaking of college football recruiting:
AUSTIN
Harley Ratliff sports.tansan.com
The Kansas Jayhawks found out
just how fickle this business can be. On Wednesday, Zak Kustok, the 6-foot-3,215-pound recruit from Orland Park, Ill., withdrew his commitment from Kansas to attend Northwestern. Kustok had given a nonbinding oral commitment to the Jayhawks last fall.
For coach Terry Allen, this has to be an especially disappointing loss. Allen, who has struggled to implement his air attack offense on the windy plains of Kansas, desperately needs a talented, strong armed quarterback to lead his squad. The success of his offense depends upon it.
During his first two seasons, Allen has been forced to rely upon Matt Johner, Zac Wegner, and Jay Alexander — guys who, while scrappy and determined, probably wouldn't start at most other Division I schools. Even if Kustok didn't live up to his billing, he would have at least provided Allen with another good arm.
Does everyone have the flu?
At our Super Bowl party, I saw more kids putting away cough drops and cold medicine than potato chips and beer. I felt like I was at ground zero for the Influenza outbreak
Reminder to the non-believers:
Remember to the not-benefiters.

Denver 34, Atlanta 16.
Scarv. isn't it?
As a native Oklahomaan (as we all know), I'm entitled to be a bit paranoid about what goes on down in Austin, Texas. But what Mack Brown has done in Longhorn country during the past season should have everyone in the Big 12 Conference a bit on edge.
After turning around Texas football on the field, Brown has made strides to return the program back to its glory days of years past. Brown known for being a charismatic recruiter, has brought in what many consider to be the best class in the nation.
Reality: Denver 34, Atlanta 19.
If Brown's first full year is any indicator, Texas could replace Nebraska as the dominant force in Big 12 football.
In the words of my roommate, there is only one way to describe Kansas State's Bramlage Coliseum. Sterile.
- As Paul Pierce keeps popping up in more and more ESPN highlights, you can't help but ask, how did this guy go so low in the last summer's NBA draft?
As the NBA's abbreviated season gets into full swing, fans across the nation will find out what folks in Lawrence have known for three years: Pierce can put the biscuit in the basket. Repeatedly.
Although he still looks a bit soft around the edges, I wouldn't be surprised to see Pierce win Rookie-of-the-Year.

Today's birthday (Feb. 4). Travel is important for you this year, as is higher education. It's going to be fun and easy, and you'll know just where you want to go by the end of February. In March, you'll figure out how and put money down on the trip if you're wise. In April, finish off the payment so it's a done deal, then wait until about August at which point you'll get the purpose for this whole adventure. In September or October, launch. You'll be doing exactly what you've always wanted if you set this thing up right. There is a test in November. You'll pass it by being more aggressive. In December tell the truth. It will set you free.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7 People may not think of you as the intellectual type, but sometimes you are. By doing a little reading on your own you could finally understand what an expert is talking about. Your expertise will grow quickly if you talk with folks in the know.
You love to be of service to other people. You live your life so that other people can be happy, healthy, wealthy and even wise, but it wouldn't really be too wise of you to do not today — not if you still have to keep body and soul together.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is an 8
Today you'll be able to talk people into doing just about anything you want. The person you love and admire will be able to talk you into just about anything. Pick a private place to follow through on those ideas.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7
You're always looking for ways to stretch your imagination and conquer new horizons. You just want to stretch your legs and your mind and everything else.
Don't go too far today unless you can get tomorrow off as well.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20); Today is a 5

"We're optimistic about spring practice," Allen said. "But we don't want to take any chances when you're dealing with that type of injury."

Allen spoke of Wegner's injury
Wegner's starting job could be in jeopardy, with Allen opening the competition between Wegner and Smith.

Kansan staff reports
WACO, Texas — Randy Waldrum, whose Baylor women's soccer team won the Big 12 championship this season, has resigned to begin a new position at Notre Dame.
Baylor women's soccer coach resigns for Notre Dame position
Kansas basketball signees Kirk Hirchin of Sioux City, Iowa, and Nick Collison of Iowa Falls, Iowa were named to the 1999 USA Basketball Men's Junior National Select Team.
Waldrum the announcement Tuesday night, 20 minutes after the Waco City Council heralded the team's accomplishments by proclaiming a week in its honor.
Kansas recruits Hinrich, Collison named to national select team
N
He'll replace Chris Petrucci, who after nine years at Notre Dame was hired in late December as
women's soccer coach at
Twelve of the nation's top high school seniors
Texas.
Unable to come to terms with Baylor on a new contract, Wal-drum agreed to a multi-year deal with the Fighting Irish.
Notre Dame ended this season one win short of its fifth
straight Final Four appearance
Although he reportedly would receive more than twice as much money at Notre Dame, Waldrum told the Waco Tribune-Herald the decision was difficult.
Tom Stanton, Baylor athletic director, said the search for Waldrum's replacement would begin immediately.
Offensive coordinator rehired for another season with Chiefs
Kansas City head coach Gunther Cunningham, the Chiefs former defensive coordinator who replaced Marty Schottenheimer, announced he has retained the 22-year NFL veteran as well as offensive line coach Mike Solari.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Less than two weeks after the Kansas City Chiefs filled the head coaching vacancy with one of its own, the team rehired coach Jimmy Ray as offensive coordinator yesterday.
SCORPIO
Raye became the offensive coordinator last year after spending the five previous seasons as the team's running back coach. Raye had been one of three internal candidates for Schottenheimer's job. Raye, 52, began coaching in 1971 at his alma mater, Michigan State.
Cunningham also hired two assistants yesterday from the Baltimore Ravens.
He came to Kansas City in 1992 as offensive assistant and tight end coach, becoming the running back coach the following season.
Al Lavan, a 17-year NFL veteran, was named running back coach and Richard Mann was named wide receiver coach.
Solari, who had coached the offensive line the past two seasons, had reportedly drawn interest from the Baltimore Ravens. He spent the previous five seasons as an assistant offensive line coach with the San Francisco 49ers.
Lakers look to sign Rodman, awaiting rebounder's response
The Los Angeles Times reported yesterday that Lakai executives executive vice president Jerry West spoke Tuesday with Rodman's new agent, Chasman, and was waiting for word from the 37-year old forward.
LOS ANGELES — Dennis Rodman and the Lakers would be a marriage made in, well, Hollywood, and the team is definitely interested in the seven-time rebounding champ.
Rodman has played on five of the last 10 NBA champion teams, including the last three with the Chicago Bulls.
"We've discussed it, but everyone's putting the cart before the horse," West told the Times. "We don't have any idea whether there's any interest on his part."
According to the newspaper, Chasman plans to discuss the situation with Rodman, who had said he would like to play for the Orlando Magic but also had shown interest in the Lakers. Houston and Miami are also interested.
The Lakers could offer Rodman a veteran minimum starting salary of $1 million under the new labor deal. Rodman earned $1.8 million in the last two seasons with the Bulls.

Commentary
Favored Wildcats help Kansas end pesky losing streak
submitted for the approval of the readers of the Kansan sports section: a plethora of opinions from the sports world.
1. Yes, friends, winning is fun.
But it is OH SO MUCH SWEETER when it comes as a result of defeating Kansas State.
You've gotta love it, people. First of all, it is K-State. "Nuff said. Second, they were favored for godness' sake! When was the last time the 'Hawks were insulted like that? Yes, we were still trying to right ourselves after ending our longest conference losing streak in the history of the Big 12 Conference (it lasted two games) but come out! This is a
team who's best player is Manny Dies, a guy who's name has been in the papers more for marjuana and attacking reporters than for his on-the-court exploits.
Kansas played well against the 'Cats, but like I said, it was K-State. The Jayhawks have to keep improving, and with the Big 12 being unquestionably one of the weakest conferences in America,
IRELAND
Kansas will get the opportunity.
Randy
Withers
sports@kansan.com
Kansas will get the opportunity. 2. We will soon know what kind of a player Scottie Pippen truly is. When the Houston Rockets acquired Pippen via a trade from the Chicago Bulls, the Rockets vaulted themselves into the upper echelon of the NBA. During Michael Jordan's baseball-induced absence, Pippen shined on a team that was suddenly somewhat average.
Pippen is a tremendous scorer, one of the most tenacious defenders in the league and an impact player of the highest order.
On a front line that already boasted Hall of Famers Charles Barkley and Hakeem Olajuwon, Pippen will have an MVP-caliber season, albeit an abbreviated one. That is, provided that he can recover fully from off-season back surgery.
3. Paul Pierce has shown flashes of brilliance so far his preseason for the Boston Celtics. Pierce, a lottery pick that would have been an All-American at forward for the Jayhawks this year, is looking to make each of the nine teams that passed on him pay for their mistake.
Pierce, forward Ron Mercer and point guard Kenny Andersson give
Boston a solid nucleus of young players with which to build around. I still can't help but shed a few tears every time I see Pierce on SportsCenter and think of what might have been. I can hear Max now..."Boschepe passes ahead to Pierce in the open court. Paul takes it all the way to the rim...monster dunk by Pierce!" Oh, well.
4. Walter Payton's press conference Tuesday was one of the most sobering things I have ever witnessed. Payton announced that he has primary sclerosing cholangitis and needs a liver transplant to survive.
"Sweetness" dramatic weight
dramatic weight loss as a result of his affliction has left him a shadow of his former self. Payton was the first great running back that I had the privilege to watch, and he played with a rare blend of grit and determination — the likes of which I have rarely seen since. Looking at what he accomplished in his career, after having played at tiny Jackson State in college, and hearing him speak on TV earlier this
week, I truly believe Payton will win in the greatest battle of his life.
5. The Super Bowl was a sorry excuse for a championship game, I'm just glad it's finished. Finally. Here are my final words on the war that, well, wasn't.
I've seen Elway play far better on at least 10 occasions. I've got a bad feeling he isn't done yet.
- The Eugene Robinson debacle-I don't care. I'm not condoning it, I'm ignoring it.
Neil Smith is done. I loved him as a Chief, but he can't get off the ball to rush the passer anymore.
Tim Dwight was the only player on that field that was fun to watch. That guy plays with more reckless abandon than anyone I have seen in years. Next to Deion Sanders, he has to be the best return man in the NFL. He will be even faster next year, considering he is spending his off-season running track for the University of Iowa
You've gotta love that WWF commercial!
THIS JUST IN-The Broncos just scored again.

Tennis team heads south
Two players earn spot in tournament
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
By capturing the Region V title in October, No. 9 Luis Uribe earned a spot in the Roles Indoors Championship this weekend in Dallas.
Uribe, Queretaro, Mexico, senior, also will compete with his partner Ed Dus, Fairview Park, Ohio,
sopnonmore, in the doubles competition. The No.15 doubles team in the nation won the Region V doubles title to
KANSAS
TENNIS
earn the appearance
The Rolex Indoors draws the top collegiate players from around the country. Twenty-two of the top 25 singles players will be competing as well as eight of the top 10 doubles teams.
"We were ranked 39th when we won Region V," Dus said. "But just because we're ranked 15th now, that doesn't make us any better. It's wide open. There aren't any major dominating teams that I feel like."
Men's Tennis
we can't beat, but all of the teams are good enough that we could lose in the first round."
Uribe and Dus are 1-1 this season.
8-6 overall for two seasons.
"I would like to see them be more consistent," coach Mark Riley said. "They can be very good or average. They do seem to play better against better competition."
Riley said the duo had spent the week practicing timing.
"We focused on high-percentage tennis and making the opponent play," Dus said. "Solid tennis is great tennis. We don't want to do anything too flash."
Dus has spent the week recovering from a shoulder injury that has hampered him since the team's first match against Louisville.
He took four days to relax and has been trying to regain his timing. He said the injury won't bother him as much as if he had been playing alone.
Uribe missed the first match of the season because he had the
chicken pox, but returned in the Ice Volleys in Minnesota and decisively beat two opponents including No.14 Tom Chicoine of Michigan. 36,61,63.
Last fall, Uribe entered the season unranked before defeating seven of nine ranked opponents.
"I have been playing good indoor tennis," Uribe said. "I am confident I can do well and win some matches."
"He played outstanding last week," Riley said. "I look forward to having good results as usual."
With his spectacular play in the National Clay Courts and International Tennis Association All-American, Uribe became one of only four players to reach the Sweet 16 rounds in the first two lees of the ITA Grand Slam.
Uribe said he also felt good about his chances at the Rolex Indoors.
Dus said he has added confidence because Uribe is a great player.
"I can hit more shots and do more with the ball knowing he can back me up," Dus said.
"The best players in the country will be there." Uribe said. "This is a good chance for us to get some big wins and move up in the rankings. I think we can do well, but it will be hard."
Singles player to face top athletes
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
Kris Sell, who is ranked 25th nationally for women's tennis singles, will represent the Kansas women's team this weekend at the Rolex Indoor Championship in Dallas.
kris has waited a long time to be one of the top 50 players in the country," said Kansas coach Jenny Garrity. "She started the year at No.87, so this shows that the hard work in the fall paid off."
Sell, who is second in the region, qualified for the meet by defeating three higher-ranked opponents at the ITA Central Region Championship finals last November. The two finalists automatically advanced to the Rolex Indoors.
It is possible that Sell might face Duke's No. 1 singles player, Vanessa Webb. Sell lost to Webb 6-3, 6-1 last Saturday at a dual meet against Duke.
Stanford, Florida, Duke, Kansas State and Tulsa are expected to compete.
"I learned a lot in the match that will help me later on in the season," Sell said. "Now I can compete with her."
Women's Tennis
Webb is now ranked second nationally.
"I're really looking forward to playing," said Sell, Morristown, N.J., senior. "I have nothing to lose."
While the draw has not been decided yet, singles players from
Since last weekend's losses against Duke and William and Mary, Sell has prepared for the tournament.
Sell said she was optimistic about the tournament.

technical things and just trying to get some good practices in," she said. "Once I get there, I'll have to adjust to my surroundings and my opponent's style of tennis."
Sell will be accompanied by Garrity, her parents and two members of the men's tennis team. Luis Uribe, Queretaro, Mexico, senior, and Ed Dus, Fairview Park, Ohio, sophomore, are playing doubles in the Rolex Indoors. Uribe also is playing singles.
Despite the support of her coach and family, Sell said she wanted more of a fan base.

Sanford leads Jayhawks to win
Team extends home winning streak to 20
By Mike Harrity
KANSAS 34
Kansan sportswriter
Nakia Sanford spent a lot of time in front of the television the past few days watching the game tape from the women's basketball team's Jan. 20 loss at Colorado.
As each frame advanced on the tane, her anger grew.
She couldn't believe what she was seeing — the way Colorado would sag on defense every time she touched the ball, daring her to shoot. Sanford hit four of the nine shots she took.
"I was just really disappointed with myself after watching how they played me," Sanford said after Tuesday night's 65-57 win against Colorado at Allen Fieldhouse. "I didn't want that to happen again."

Sanford scored a career-high 24 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in the game, which extended the team's home winning streak to 20 games.
The coaches' game plan to exploit Colorado's inside defense worked to perfection. In addition to Sanford's 24 points, both starting forwards had big games. Brooke Reves scored 14 points and Jaclyn Johnson scored 11 points in addition to her 10 rebounds and seven assists.
Coach Marian Washington's wide smile at the post-game press conference spoke volumes about her team's performance.
"This was probably our best inside performance to date," said Washington, whose team improved to 17-6 and 7-3 in the Big 12. "I was really pleased with Nakia's play tonight.
"Her biggest challenge is being consistent because she's capable of this kind of performance every night."
Sanford, who entered Tuesday night's game averaging 7.9 points and 5.7 rebounds, played as well on defense as on offense, limiting Colorado starting center Britt Hartshorn to four points on one of four shooting.
arthborn expected her duel with Sanford to be more physical than their last meeting, but not as tough
as it turned out to be.
"I thought she would come out playing tougher than last time, so I was ready for it," Hartshorn said. "But, man, she was out there pushing and not really giving me a chance to get a shot off."
Sanford's biggest play came with a little more than three minutes left in the game, with Kansas clinging to a 53-52 lead. Sanford caught the crisp pass from Johnson and made a jump shot while being fouled. After hitting the free throw and extending the lead to 56-52, Kansas' suffocating defense left Colorado hopeless in the waning minutes.
About the only thing Sanford did wrong all night happened when the teams took the floor to begin the second half. Deep in concentration, Sanford realized she had forgotten one thing as she took her position on defense — she hadn't taken off her warm-up jacket.
The absent-minded move brought laughs from the Kansas bench on a night that more than made up for the anger felt from Sanford's previous performance against Colorado.
"I just wanted to prove that I am somebody to be reckoned on with this team and that I deserve to be respected," Sanford said.

Surplus of Cold War era
Douglas County missile base stands empty,but full of dreams
of Cold War era
By Ezra Sykes Kansan staff writer
When Michael Hiebert was young, he was the kind of kid who had to have a fort or a treehouse.
Now he has a missile base located in the hills of southeast Douglas County.
Hiebert bought the missile base nine years ago in hopes of turning it into his permanent residence, but now he is trying to sell it.
The Atlas-E missile base is one of nine that surrounds Forces Air Force Base near Topeka, said Hiebert, who has toured several of the other sites bought by civilis.
The 17,000 sq. foot base was built between 1958 and 1962 and was only active for about two years, he said.
Because it took more than 20 to 25 minutes to move a missile into the upright position and launch it
— missiles were stored horizontally — the missile base became obsolete in a short period of time.
Despite its short life as a working missile base,
the place was built
to last; its walls
range from 20
inches to 16 feet
thick.
"In the 1950s, they spent $4.5 million dollars to build the thing." Hiebert said. "Today, they might spend $30 million on it. They spared no expense and used nothing
A garage door leads into the missile bay, which is covered by a 300-ton lid that at one time could open for a missile launch.
but the best materials."
At the opposite end there is a wide trough called a flame shoot that was used to capture the initial blast of a launching rocket.
...
"I thought it would be a great lap pool," Hiebert said.

Other ideas include a Jacuzzi in

In recent years, the property has been used for anything from an ice rink to a place for private parties; red hand prints left on the wall mark last year's Halloween party.
The lower section of the missile base contains the old command center and living quarters for the six men who normally occupied the silo during its prime.
Hiebert pointed to the center of the room, now flooded with water, to a place where two toilets once stood side by side.
"You can still see the wax rings," Hiebert said, explaining the cramped living arrangements of the soldiers. "They didn't give many conveniences to the guys that lived here."
Hiebert said the place could be creepy at times, especially while working there alone.
"I'll be working down in a lower section and a pigeon in the air vent will squawk," he said. "By the time the echo gets down to me, it sounds groulish."
It is difficult to keep the place open to work on because of vandalism and theft, said Hiebert. He recently had $2,000 worth of tools and a generator stolen from the site.
Murl Westheffer of Century 21 Miller & Midyett said that this was the first missile shell he had ever tried to sell and that people from across the country had come to see the property.
Westhefer is trying to sell the 25-acre property for $250,000. He would not say how much he spent purchasing the property.
Potential buyers have envisioned converting the silo into a home, a business or a warehouse for storage, he said.
Wasthefer said he was having a fun time with the project.
"I'd take on another one if I could," he said. "I wouldn't hesitate for a second."
Although the property is for sale, Hiebert said he would have no problems keeping it.
"I love to come out here," he said. "It's so quiet you can hear a bird's wings cut through the air. I'll come here to work on the place sometimes and end up reading a book or just daydreaming."

Hunger fast to protest against Peltier arrest
A national protest tomorrow will mark the 23rd anniversary of Leonard Pelitter's arrest.
Pettier, an American Indian Movement activist, was arrested Feb. 6, 1976 in Canada in connection to a shootout that left two FBI agents and a Native American dead.
Lawrence members of the Leonard Pelitzer Defense Committee will sponsor a local hunger fast at noon tomorrow at Ninth and Massachusetts streets.
His case has been appealed several times without success.
Peltier was convicted of first degree murder of the federal agents, though the decision has been challenged ever since, said Gina Chiala, staff member at the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee.
A petition for Executive Clemency has been pending for five years.
"I don't think that he did it," said Raven Heavy Runner, Browning, Mont., senior and president of the First Nations Student Association. "I think justice will be served if he is released" Heavy Runner and Michael Yellow Bird, assistant professor of social welfare, will read excerpts from Peltier's unreleased book at 4 p.m. tomorrow at Java Break, 1.7 E Seventh St.

Pettier wrote his book, "My Life is My Sundance," while in prison.

People magazine story upsets Clinton family
WASHINGTON — President Clinton and his wife said they were profoundly sadened by People magazine's decision to do a cover story on their daughter Chelsea

"For over six years, the media has understood and respected the unique situation facing Chelsea as she grows up in the spotlight focused on her parents," the Clintons said Wednesday in a prepared statement. "We have been very grateful for the media's restraint in
allowing Chelsea the privacy that any young person needs and deserves."
The Clintons said *People* chose to run the story despite personal appeals with respect to her privacy and her security from her parents."
Clinton: Will be featured in a cover story in People.
The magazine will hit the street today with a cover photo of Chelsea with her mother and the headline: "Hillary & Chelsea — Grace Under Fire."
Senate nearing vote in impeachment trial
WASHINGTON — The Senate moved yesterday to bring President Clinton's impeachment trial to a prompt conclusion, rejecting a last-ditch request by House prosecutors to summon Monica Lewinsky for live testimony. Republicans also shrank from a plan to declare the president guilty without ousting him from office.
With 25 Republicans holding Democrats, the Senate rejected 70-30 the prosecutors' request to issue a subpoena requiring Lewinsky to testify in the well of the Senate.
With support from several Democrats, however, Senate Republicans approved the House prosecutors' request to show at the trial this weekend all or portions of the videotaped depositions of Lewinsky, presidential friend Vernon Jordan and White House adviser Sidney Blumenthal.
Majority Leader Trent Lott yesterday said the Senate was on track for a final vote on the two articles of impeachment by Feb. 1,2, or perhaps a day earlier.

Pluto remains a planet after scientists' ruling
PARIS — it's official: Pluto is still a planet, and more mortals won't change that anytime soon.
The ruling by the world's leading astronomical organization came amid a brewing cosmic storm among scientists and stargazers afraid the smallest planet in the solar system was being demoted.
News reports had said Pluto was to be demoted to a Minor Planet, or — worse — a Trans-Neptunian Object.
That simply isn't so, the International Astronomical Union said yesterday.
In fact, discussions have been under way on creating a potential numbering system for Trans-Neptunian Objects and giving Pluto a number, too.
The IAU attributed the false reports of Pluto's demise to incomplete or misleading information about how the IAU works.
A KU student's car was damaged between 8:30 and 9:30 a.m. Jan. 30 in the 900 block of Emery Road, Lawrence police said. Damage to the car was estimated at $1,500.
These objects, which are beyond Neptune in the outer solar system, have some similarities to Pluto, including the type of orbit and possibly other properties, the IAU said. Including Pluto in a cataloging system would help the study of such objects.
ON THE RECORD
Scientists and stargazers were aghast at the notion of toying with Pluto's celestial prestige.

Spring jobs fair at fieldhouse offers options
By Jason Walker
Special to the Kansan
Students looking for a good way to get ahead in the job marketplace need look no further than Allen Fieldhouse.
The University Career and Employment Services office is sponsoring the Spring Career and Employment Fair today to connect students with jobs.
More than 150 businesses will be represented at the fair, which will be held from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the concourse area of the fieldhouse.
Employers will discuss internship opportunities, full- and part-time jobs and summer and volunteer positions with students.
"It gives students a chance to meet potential employers and give them their resume," said Wayne Stark, assistant director of the Career and Employment Services office. "It's not a formal setup; usually employers will call back and schedule a formal interview."
Stark said students shouldn't necessarily show up wearing a three-piece suit, but they also shouldn't look too casual. "Students should look sharp." he said. "They should also be ready to meet people."
Heather McReynolds, Amarillo, Texas, junior, who works for employment services, said that students should attend the fair even if they weren't sure what they wanted to do after they graduate.
"It will be helpful to anyone," she said. "They are looking to hire people."
McReynolds said the fair also was convenient for students and would save students time.
"There will be tons of companies there at one time," she said. "Instead of having to go to the phone book and calling the businesses, they are all right here."
Stark said the fair showcased businesses and organizations of all kinds, from Fortune 400 companies to non-profit organizations and local government agencies.
"They usually are looking for liberal arts students, and it gives students a good chance to meet businesses with a diversity of backgrounds." he said.
Stark said that KU students were attractive to employers and traditionally showed exemplary qualities. For that reason, he said, many businesses send representatives to the fair.
Stark also said that he wanted students to have a chance to get exposed to as many opportunities and employers as possible.
Among the companies that will be represented at the fair are Abercrombie and Fitch, Coca-Cola Enterprises, Gap Inc. and Boeing, Inc.

Athletic club struck by fire; owner plans to rebuild in future
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
A fire destroyed much of Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way, early yesterday morning, said Bill Stark, battalion chief with the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical department.
The fire, which started about an hour before the club was scheduled to open at 5 a.m., took 1 1/2 hours and 40 firefighters to bring under control. Stark said. He said that no one was in the building when the fire started and that there were no injuries.
Charred and warped workout equipment stood exposed within the skeletal remains of the structure, which contained a weight room, a child-care room, tanning beds, locker rooms, a cardio-theater and offices.
"I got the call that the building was on fire at 4:20," Lawrence Athletic Club owner Richard Sells said. "By the time I got here around 4:25, the south side was engulfed."
Stark said that the fire began in the central part of the building, but that fire officials had not yet determined how it started. He said that the investigation would begin after firefighters had finished draining the excess water out of the building, which took most of yesterday.
Officials haven't estimated the cost of the damage. Sells said the total value of the property was $2.5 million. He judged by the appearance of the building that there was at
least $1 million in damage.
The west end of the L-shaped building was built in 1994. The addition of an east wing, which included an indoor swimming pool, was completed last year.
Although the east wing appeared relatively unmarried by the fire, Sells said that the pool circulation pumps in the basement of the building might not function because of water damage.
More than 4,000 people belong to the club. Sells said that the club had recently run a special sale for students and that 675 new members had enrolled since Jan. 1.
He said people on monthly installment plans would not be billed next month and those who had paid in full would have their memberships extended until the club reopened for service. Sells said that other options were being explored but that it was too early to say what those options might be.
"I've only belonged for a week," Ben Anderson, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, said. "I wanted to get more exercise, and I figured if I signed up at a club, I'd do it more often."
Anderson signed up during LAC's student special. He said that he had used his credit card to pay the entire fee and that he was eager to find out what arrangements the owner would make to compensate members.
LAC is site only health code owned by Sells.
"We're definitely going to rebuild," he said.
"It's just a matter of how soon we can get it done."
LAC is the only health club owned by Sells.
We do detailed programs to uphold the LAC.
Spending limit approved by Senate
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
The Student Senate elections commission is attempting to increase voter turnout and individual campaigning by implementing lower spending limits.
After holding an open complaint hearing and finishing final revisions this week, the commission will release its final 1999 elections code at noon today at the Dean of Students Office in Strong Hall.
One of the most drastic changes in this year's code will be the decrease of campaign spending limits.
Amanda Weinberg, commission chair, said the commission's major goal this year was to increase voter turnout.
"I think this year we'll have more active campaigning by each senatorial candidate," she said. "Spending limits also will give independent candidates incentive to run."
Coalitions now can spend $1,500 compared to last year's $2,780.
Previously, individual candidates who ran as part of a coalition had to

pay for their campaigns within the coalition's total spending limit.
This year, they can spend $50 separate from their coalition's contribution.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said that the individual spending limit would encourage candidates to campaign individually.
"We want to advertise, get people out there and educate the students," she said.
Independent candidates can spend $150 compared to $200 last year.
Because of the spending limits, candidates no longer have to submit campaign budgets. Instead, they must submit an expense report that documents campaign expenses such as buttons and posters.
Last year, the commission only required an expense report from each coalition.
"We want to take a more active role in increasing student body awareness on campaign issues," she said.
Ben Walker, Nunemaker senator, said that he was unhappy with the spending limits but that he thought overall the commission did a good job revising the code.
"There was a lot of good argumentation," Walker said. "Overall, the code is decent."
Another change in this year's code is a provision that allows candidates to campaign on campus sidewalks.
Watkins said that the commission wanted to protect candidates' First Amendment rights to free speech.
Mike Kaufman, commission member, said that Senate created the commission to ensure fair and impartial elections.
On Wednesday, Senate passed two bills that reversed the commission's decision to place coalition names on the ballot.
The search is on for three new deans
Schools of Law Fine Arts, libraries begin nationwide hunt for prospects
By Kristi Reimer Kansan staff writer
National searches are under way to find the right people for three vacant or soon-to-be vacant dean positions at the University of Kansas — School of Law, School of Fine Arts and libraries.
A search committee began interviewing candidates for the School of Law dean yesterday, said Webb Hecker, professor of law and chairman of the committee.
Members will meet with five candidates between now and Feb. 20, Hecker said. Then the committee and faculty will meet to discuss the applicants and decide on a
list of names to present to the administration.
"Our time frame is to try to get this wrapped up and into the provost's hands by the end of the month." Hecker said.
Together, the provost and chancellor will make the final hiring decision, Hecker said.
He said the school was pushing to complete the search before an American Bar Association accreditation team arrived to evaluate the school March 1.
"It would be horrible to be doing both at once," Hecker said.
He said the new dean would need to address fundraising issues and maintain the innovative approach the school had taken with its curriculum.
"I think KU is in the forefront of responding to the need for hands-on, clinical experience," Hecker said. "We have at least doubled
the number of clinical-education courses, and in that area we are one of the leading law schools in the country."
Examples of these innovative curriculum areas were a tribal law certificate program for Native Americans and a clinic that was part of a program in media law and policy, he said.
The School of Law dean,
Michael Hoeflich, is stepping down at the end of the academic year.
John Gaunt, dean of the School of Architecture and Urban Design, is leading the search for a new dean at the School of Fine Arts.
His committee is accepting applications until Feb. 15, although if an appropriate candidate is not found, it will take resumes after that date.
Gaunt said that his committee hoped to interview applicants in March and April and have a selection
bv Mav.
Peter Thompson, the outgoing dean, will return to the classroom after this year.
He said that the next dean of the School of Fine Arts would handle an accreditation by the National Association of Schools of Music and a Board of Regents fine arts program review.
"That will be facing some one immediately," Thompson said.
He said that the new dean would inherit the Murphy Hall construction project and that alumni development, fund-raising and faculty turnover would need attention in the next decade.
The search committee for the dean of libraries should be announced early next week, Provost David Shulenburger said. The target date for hiring someone is July 1.
Dean Bill Crow resigned from the position in January to become chief librarian at Spencer Research Library.

Communications department managed overflow graciously
The communication studies department faced an overload this semester because of staff difficulties. This, however, did not stop any graduating seniors from being placed in needed classes to meet May 1999 graduation requirements.
Two professors left. One is on sabbatical, another is on medical leave and one other is going into retirement. This amounted to a 25 percent loss of the faculty.
With this situation, it was not surprising that students, including graduating seniors, had difficulty finding space in communications classes.
Thanks to the flexibility of the department and its staff, all of the graduating seniors were accommodated.
Howard Syph, communication studies chair, said that the school did

several things to try and help the students involved. Many classes were made larger, some as populated as possible under fire safety standards. Discussion sections were added to some classes.
Sypher said that the communication studies department did not just take care of the students who were communications majors. Students in schools such as business and journalism who needed classes also were given priority.
For example, Sypher said, one graduating senior realized this week that he

needed three hours of communications to graduate. Even with the severe overcrowding within the department, he was granted last-minute enrollment.
Although it is unfortunate that some students may be inconvenienced because of the larger class sizes, this beats the alternative, which would hinder some students' track toward graduation.
The communication studies department deserves some credit for the measures it took to ensure students would graduate. It increased classes sizes and the workload of its remaining faculty, an act that was a tribute to the students it worked so hard to accommodate.

Election rules needed free appeals
People found guilty of violating Elections Commission rules and regulations now have an outlet for their appeals. Prior to Wednesday's Student Senate meeting, a candidate needed to take a complaint to court.
Because this is often a costly and time consuming process, it was not a viable option for most students. Students now may appeal decisions to the University Judiciary Committee.
A good example of an issue to appeal was leaving the coalition name off the ballots, which was a proposal included in the first draft of the 1999 Elections Code. Nunemaker Senator Ben Walker was correct when he said that taking coalitions off the ballot moved the
Student Senate's quick action should be commended by students, prospective candidates.
election away from an issues-oriented activity and toward a large-scale popularity contest. Whoever could get his or her name out the most would win.
The University Judiciary Committee, on the other hand, uses the knowledge of a law professor and law students to make its decisions. This committee is charged with upholding federal, state and local laws.
Perhaps this was why there was a need to quickly implement an appeals process. Before the review process was implemented, the Senate had formed its own Judiciary Committee to hear appeals. Unfortunately, its jurisdiction was limited to procedural issues and not to violations of the Elections Code.
This will be helpful because every year, there are violations reported that relate to spending limits for candidates or coalitions. On both federal and state levels, laws limiting campaign spending have been ruled unconstitutional.
An appeals process for the Elections Commission has been long overdue. We should congratulate Student Senate for increasing the constitutionality of elections on campus.

Perspective
Fast-paced campus life easier with kindness
As a student in my second year at the University of Kansas, I have learned how things work around here. I have endured the terrors of enrolling, made it through add/drop and even managed to get my basketball vouchers turned in for
ackets on time once or twice.

Sydney Wallace opinion @ tansan.com
All in all, I feel as if I have figured things out pretty well. People, on the other hand, continue to baffle me daily.
Every time I'm on campus, I see things that make my jaw drop, and I wonder what people possibly could be thinking. I see people running into strangers with hardly a backward glance. People
push their way into buses without pausing to allow others to exit. Those same people who shoved into the bus proceed to hog entire seats, never noticing the three people standing in the aisle.
Everywhere I look, there are newspapers and trash haphazardly discarded. I have sat in seats that were left sticky by the previous occupant's spilled soda.
When I encounter such situations, I sometimes am left with no explanation because I know that the majority of the people I have met here at the University are pretty nice. Complete strangers have loaned me class notes, and I have formed study groups with people whose last names I don't know.
Last year when I had no clue where any of my classes were, everyone I stopped to ask was more than helpful, and more than once people went out of their way to take me directly to the building I was searching for. Looking at the University from this perspective really makes it hard to understand why I sometimes get pushed around or have to fight for a seat on the bus.
After much thought, I have decided that the problem goes far beyond the KU campus. It is not that college kids are a bunch of jerks. That simply isn't true. The problem rests in the fast pace that has become the norm for our society.
We always have somewhere to go and something important to do. We look out for
ourselves first because we have been taught that only the strong survive. Our focus has gone beyond the pleasures of daily life as we constantly are reminded that a college education is required in today's job market.
It is no wonder that people can run into one another without bothering to apologize. Everyone is too busy to take the time out for such things.
Common courtesy never should be overlooked simply because it doesn't serve any immediate purpose. The value in treating others well goes far beyond anything a college education or high salary ever can give us.
It is the kindness of strangers that has made this country what it is today. It is kindness that drives people to take up collections for hurricane victims halfway across the country, people that they will never meet. It is kindness that drove people to rush to Oklahoma City on that fateful day nearly four years ago to help complete strangers in a time of need. It is kindness that a girl whose name I do not know gave me her lecture notes for classes I missed when I was sick.
I am not asking everyone to skip through life rescuing baby birds and helping old ladies cross the street, but it can't hurt. I only encourage people to realize that their actions affect those around them.
When you bump into someone, apologize because no matter whose fault the collision was, everyone feels better once you say you're sorry. Smile at someone who looks sad. Share your newspaper with the person next to you on the bus. But most importantly, don't forget that the people whose lives you affect will in turn affect the lives of others around them.
Sooner or later, you will be one of those people affected by the kindness of a stranger. And to the person whose gum I stepped in the other day, I hope the next time we meet, I flash you my biggest smile because maybe a little kindness from a stranger will do you some good.

Customer service lacks sensitivity for elderly
Come on people, now smile on your brother. Everybody get together, come on and try and love one another — unless they're old. Believe it or not, that is the kind of attitude.

This is the cultural hub of Kansas, and we are proud of that. Many businesses, families and scholars have been drawn here not only for the University, but for the home-like atmosphere of Lawrence, which, like a pair of open arms, beckons you to forget your prejudices.
But to our dismay, we have been victims of a glaring hypocrisy.

This man has the consideration to call ahead before shopping trips and alert management that he is a special-needs customer.
We're not talking about some bitter old man who is intent on taking somebody's time to compensate for loneliness or the hardships of his own predicament.
One would think the clerks were being exposed to raw sewage and not another human being.
Is it too much to ask for a little patience toward those less fortunate with mobility?
Why would such uncouth personalities want to work in the customer-service industry, when they cannot participate adequately in decent human relations?
As a precaution, we took a trip down to one store where this man shops to determine just how thick this intolerance ran. As two moderately attractive (we think), young females, we could not comprehend the disdain possibly experienced by the older gentleman mentioned above.
The clerks smiled, said hello and only stared for a second. What a relief it was for us that the clerks simply were not ill-trained in customer service. Instead, they were displaying ageism.
Ageism is a concept for the 1990s. Some young adults like to mold their appearances, lifestyles, personal mottoes and vocabulary to mirror a genre present in America, the 1960s—the Vietnam War, the Civil Rights Movement, free love and an overall social movement toward peace and individual liberties.
Granted, today there's no war. Supposed hippies walk the streets of Lawrence in abundance. Some work the morbid grind of parttime retail employment. Some demonstrate ageism.
for a group that shows extreme interest in the 1960s, we would think they would respect someone who was alive during that period.
This man was about 40 years old in the 1960s. Odds are that he experienced the best and worst of that era. This is a man that has the knowledge to describe the sights, sounds, smells, joy and heartache of the decade.
Where are his civil liberties?

Panel discusses sensationalism
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
Albert R. Hunt, executive Washington editor of The Wall Street Journal, was thankful to take a break yesterday.
Hunt, who is on the Cable News Network show "The Capital Gang," and is a host on CNN's "Evans, Novak, Hunt & Shields," discussed media responsibility in a time of sensationalism.
Hunt said that part of the reason why newspapers did not stop printing impeachment stories was because of demand.
"There is a marketplace at work for this kind of coverage," Hunt said.
"I don't think we can pretend that it's going to go away. It's going to escalate," he said.
Hunt also said that sensationalism in the media would continue.

Hunt said that speaking on the panel in front of a crowd of mostly journalism students was a welcome change.

"This is much more edifying, educational and uplifting," he said.
The panel also included Gerald Seib, deputy Washington bureau chief for The Wall Street Journal, Dave Helling, weekend anchor and political reporter for WDAF-TV Channel 4 in Kansas

■ Bill Kurits, 1998
■ David S. Broder, 1997
■ Bernard Shaw, 1994

■ Walter Crankite, 1969
City, Mo., Emerson Lynn, publisher of The Iola Register, and Mark Zieman, editor of The Kansas City Star. The event was moderated by Burdett Loomis, professor of political science.
Zieman and Seib graduated from the University of Kansas in 1983 and 1978 respectively.
The panel agreed that a serious problem was confusion in the industry about who decided the news. Seib said that it was one of the most important issues journalism was facing.
"It's not clear who's in charge any more and that's a fundamental problem." Seib said.
Zieman said that the industry's refusal to adopt a common ethical policy was a serious problem.
Hunt is in Lawrence to accept the William Allen White Award from the KU School of Journalism and Mass Communications at 1:30 today in the Kansas Union Ballroom.
"We are our own worst enemy
Hunt will give a speech he said would relate to a lot of the things the panel discussed last night but will connect them to the legacy of William Allen White.
Hunt said that he knew about the legacy of White before he was chosen for the award but that he really became excited
after reading his biography.
White, who was the editor of The Emporia Gazette, won a Pulitzer Prize in 1923 for editorial writing. White maintained the Gazette as an Independent paper. The KU School of Journalism and Mass Communications bears White's name.
James Gentry, dean of the School of Journalism, said that following White's legacy was a major part of winning the award.
"It's basically based on a record of service to the public," he said.
University schools bound for restructuring
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
Administration and faculty at three schools at the University of Kansas are examining and may be adjusting their governing structures soon.
Bob Basow, president of the University Council and associate professor of journalism, said that faculty at the School of Business, the School of Journalism and Mass Communications and the School of Fine Arts have been looking at their rules and regulations and may make some adjustments this semester or next year.
participation and power.
David Guth, an associate professor of journalism, is spearheading the bylas project for the School of Journalism with Basow.
He said that one of his primary concerns in revising the bylaws, which haven't been updated in 14 years, was that the faculty and the students both had appropriate amounts of
"We're trying to find a place where we can provide governance, where we can provide leadership where appropriate." Guth said.
Basow also said that one of his goals in restructuring the school's system was to get more students involved.
"I would think that the students in the J School should take a leadership position," he said.
The School of Business' students have no problem with taking leadership, said Mike Ettredge, associate professor of business.
"We've got a very active undergraduate business council." he said
The problem with the School of Business is that it doesn't have any written bylaws.
Bruce Budditz, associate dean of the School of Business, said that he had been in the School of Business since 1986 and had never seen any bvlaws for it.
Most of the problems that arise are solved by
looking at the minutes of previous meetings, Bublitz said. The School has an archive that goes back to 1922, and he said that he may work on putting some bylaws together this summer.
Chris Hepp, associate professor of music and dance, doesn't think the bylaws for the School of Fine Arts are adequate.
He, along with professors Simon Carrington and Daniel Politoske, both in music and dance, want the School to guarantee inclusion of the professors in decision-making.
"The three of us would like to see more visibility, a higher profile for faculty governance in the Department of Music and Dance and the School of Fine Arts," he said.
Peter Thompson, Dean of the School of Fine Arts, is stepping down after this semester, and Hepp said he was reluctant to make any serious changes that a new dean might want to reverse.
Hepp said that he would ask applicants for Thompson's position what the role of the faculty had been at their previous schools.

KU group organizes quake relief
Kansan staff writer
A KU group has established a relief fund to aid victims of the Jan. 25 earthquake in Armenia, Colombia.
By Dan Curry
Kansas staff writer
The magnitude six earthquake killed nearly 1,000 people in the western, coffee-growing region of Columbia. It razed entire neighborhoods and left 200,000 homeless.
Latin American Solidarity will accept contributions to the fund during working hours at the Center of Latin American Studies, 107 Lippincott Hall.
Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student and president of LAS, said that the money would buy food, tents, plastic coverings and coffins.
Hope said there were health problems in Armenia because there weren't enough coffins to bury the dead.
Checks should be made out to "KU Earthquake Relief."
Twelve students from Colombia attend the University of Kansas.
None have sought aid from the International Student Services because of the earthquake, said Lori Phillips, ISS receptionist.
Nayibe Bermudez, Barranquilla, Colombia, graduate student, said the quake didn't harm anyone she

they've been worried by the images of devastation." Bermudez said. "I'm very sad, too. With this new president that we have, people had hopes that the country would economically grow."

But because of the earthquake, Bermudz said, economic growth will be close to impossible.
"Our national debt will increase," she said. "There will be more taxes."
Marvin Grilliot, Roeland Park graduate student and vice president of Latin American Solidarity, said that paramilitary violence and the drug war in Columbia already had stretched the poor of the country.
The earthquake just makes matters worse,he said.
"Things have really been complicated right now," Grillot said. "There's a lot of looting going on."
He said the money collected at the University would be sent to the Columbia Support Network, a non-governmental U.S. organization that is working

with the Colombian Bishops Conference Relief Office to bring aid to those affected by the quake.
Hope said that the relief fund account had been opened a week ago and had not received many donations.
LAS also will hold a rice-and-bean dinner to raise funds for earthquake victims at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave.

The Fast-Path program is a two-year master's program in computer science designed for students who did not receive an undergraduate degree in that field.
Recent graduates who have realized that computer skills are a must in the work force can start on a fast path to a master's degree in computer science this fall.
Ambler said that students interested in Fast-Path should have a strong math background.
"The problem has been that the path through that degree program is so long that it is basically not a feasible thing to do," he said.
Allen Ambler, chairman of the graduate program review committee for the electrical engineering and computer science department, said there were several students who would benefit in their professional careers if they had received a degree in computer science.
"We anticipate that most of the students interested in this will come from math or science," Ambier said. "However, we have had students interested in business and linguistics, and some of the social sciences, so we'll see."
Ambler said that completion of statistics and three levels of calculus was required. With that background, Fast-Path combines basic computer science courses that students may not have taken in their undergraduate fields so that computer science basics can be completed in one year. These basic courses add 18 hours to the traditional computer science master's curriculum.
Students interested in the program should have a strong math background, including courses in statistics and three levels of calculus.
FAST-PATH
FastPath is a quicker way for students who did not receive an undergraduate degree in computer science to earn a master's degree in that area.
The program is intended for students who have an undergraduate degree from a U.S. university.
Sibley said that Fast-Path applications were due June 1.
Carmela Sibley, graduate admissions officer for the department, said that 80 percent of the department's graduate students were international students. Sibley said that Fast-Path was an attempt to attract more U.S. citizens, although international students with an undergraduate degree from a U.S. university also were eligible.
"This is a situation that all the hard sciences run across," Sibley said. "U.S. citizens get their bachelor's degrees and go out and get jobs, because the job market is so good."
"The Fast-Path program is more hours than the traditional graduate program, but students graduate with the same requirements had they gone through the traditional way," Ambler said.
Another requirement is that applicants must have an undergraduate degree from a U.S. university, although Ambler said that he did not think this requirement would be enforced strongly.
Groups to unite in prayer for the entire KU campus
Christian meeting to take place tonight
By Nathan Willis Special to the Kansan
Kelly Liebengood, Icthus director, said the idea for a large group event was developed by the organizations' directors, who had all been friends.
The University of Kansas needs a lot of prayer.
That's the message leaders of four campus Christian groups said they want to spread at an all group meeting at 7 tonight at Room 3140 in Wescoe Hall.
Both Liebengood and Ketrow said that they believed the meetings had been successful so far. They said that about 120 to 150 people had attended each of the meetings. Similar attendance was expected for the rest of the semester.
"Ninety percent of what we're going to do is pray for different groups on campus, campus in general, the faculty and staff, the environment on campus and stuff like that," said Scott Ketrow, director of Campus Crusade for Christ and one of the organizers of the event.
Ketrow said that although the event was sponsored by four specific religious groups Campus Crusade, Intervarsity Christian Fellowship, Icthus and Navigators — all Christians were invited.
"The teaching is really interesting, really thought-provoking and really applicable to our lives," Lawler said. "You can really feel the spirit moving in the room that God is there."
The meeting is the first of three large group events planned for this semester, Ketrow said. The four organizations also sponsored three large group meetings last semester.
Heather Lawler, St. Charles,
Ill., sophomore and Intervarsity member, attended the three meetings last semester. She said she viewed them as successes.
Lindsey Chalfant, Topeka junior and vice president of Campus Crusade, said the meetings provided moral support for Christians.
"It's good to bring everyone together," she said. "That way our groups are not so secluded. I think it's encouraging to see other Christians across campus."
Susan Hines, Grandview, Mo., senior and Intervarsity member, said the large group meeting was important.
"We're all working toward the same goal, and we want everyone to know about Jesus," Hines said. "We don't want to lose people in between the cracks, and this is a way we can make sure everyone can find a place to worship."
Liebengood said that meeting new people was not intended to be a priority of the meetings.
"I don't think the students were clear on our goals," Liebengood said. "They were looking for more interaction and entertainment."
Chalfant said a lack of publicity probably was hurting attendance. Although the meetings were a good place for newcomers to explore their options, no one seemed to know about them ahead of time, she said.

Lawyer helps bands find legal harmony
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
Horror stories of evil record companies, unread fine print and band exploitation strum a sour chord with many musicians.
The world of music can be complicated, but Steve Nearenberg, a Lawrence music lawyer, helps bands understand it.
For almost five years, Nearenberg has devoted his days to helping bands sign with record labels and negotiate contracts.
Nearenberg graduated from the University of Kansas with a law degree in 1990. After spending more than three years working for several state politicians, Nearenberg said he became frustrated with politics and quit his job working for state treasurer Sally Thompson.
During his stint in the world of politics, Nearenberg discovered his
real love.
"At the age of 25, I rediscovered music," he said. "I was buying record after record."
real love.
After friends suggested that he work in the music industry, Nearenberg flung himself into the role of music lawyer.
With a base of about 25 bands from across the country, Nearenberg has his hands full with clients but is constantly receiving referrals and must be selective.
"I'm looking for bands who are either commercially viable or critically viable," he said. "I like bands that are very commercial and know that's what they're doing or bands that are really creative and are good at it. Most of them fail at it either way."
As a music lawyer, Nearenberg must have a good ear.
"I think I have good judgment for guitar-based music, or whatever
they are calling it these days," he said. "I also know songwriting-based music like that in the tradition of The Beatles, Bob Dylan or The Byrd."
Nearenberg doesn't see constant cash flow. With some bands, short-term projects such as contract negotiating draw faster monetary return.
He advises some bands for more than a year without pay, hoping his efforts will lead to a decent record contract.
Josh Berwanger of the Lawrence pop-rock band The Anniversary said Nearenberg was helping his band find the right record label to sign with.
Berwanger said that Nearenberg had many friends in the music industry and that having his name on the return address of The Anniversary's demos was helpful.
"He can help ground a lot of people and put them where he thinks
they'll do best," said Justin Roelofs, also a member of The Anniversary
The band has sent out several demo recordings and has received responses, but no actual offe-
Roelofs said that if the band were offered a record contract, it would proceed with caution.
"There's so many scummy people out there," he said. "You deal with lots of guys who seem really cool, but in the end they aren't the ones really making the deal."
"When you're some little band, they treat you like they are giving you the deal of the century," Roelofs said. "Unfortunately, so many bands jump on it."
Berwanger said that when the band did acquire an offer, Nearenberg's assistance would be needed again.
"Once we get a contract, he looks over it to make sure we aren't getting screwed," he said.

Engineering and aesthetic achievements in 20th-century bridge design are the focus of a new exhibit at the Spencer Museum of Art.
The exhibit, "Six Bridges: The Making of a Modern Metropolis," features pictures and film of six bridges Othmar H. Amman designed for the New York City area between 1925 and 1964.
His engineering innovations allowed for longer spans, lighter and less costly bridges and unobstructed views.
Amman's George Washington Bridge was the first above-ground link between Manhattan Island and New Jersey across the Hudson River. It doubled the length of the Brooklyn Bridge, which had been the longest suspension bridge in the world.
land and immigrated to the United States in 1904.
After designing the George Washington Bridge, Amman was considered the leading expert on suspension bridges.
The show consists of 73 black-and-white photographs and historical film footage. It was developed for the Smithsonian Institution's Cooper-Hewitt National Design Museum and is circulated by the Smithsonian's Traveling Exhibition Service.
Amman was born and educated in Switzer-
"The show is a survey of his life's work, but focusing on his bridges," said Sally Hayden, Spencer public relations director. "Each one broke new ground."
"In bridge design, the aesthetics are quite as important as engineering details." Ammann once said. "It is a crime to build an ugly bridge."
Othmar H. Amman (above left) was considered the leading expert on suspension bridges after he designed the George Washington Bridge in New York City.

REVIEW
Marvelous 3 Hey!
Rating: C-
There is nothing marvelous about a power pop/rock band that sounds like all other late modern rock groups.
the album sounds convived,
its stale themes keep it from
getting anything higher than a
8- The lyric content lowers the
talk even further.
The first song on any album should set the attitude and expectations. However, this album begins with the worst-produced song "You're So Yesterday." The song begins with a rambling sample of a guy saying "Love, excitement, I'm
excited , which has nothing to do with the rest of the song.
Then a syncopated guitar riff prepares the listener for an intense rock experience, which is thwarted by a slightly out-of-tune bass line that is too loud and muddy. The song finally gets going only to be killed by super-intelligent lyrics such as "You were cool as hell like e-mail."
The first single, "Freek of the Week," is on cold rotation on 105.9, the LAZR. This is the most powerful and driving song on the album. The lyrics are witty. The intense harmonies of the chorus bring lead singer/guitarist Butch Walker's words to life. Sadly, this is the
only song that evokes any
perceptive reaction
only song that evokes any "marvelous" reaction. The lyrics vary from the interesting to the mundane. For instance, Walker sings a humorous, "I spend a lot on all the clothes that I got 'cause all the geeks that I see, they all look cooler than me," in "Freak of the Week."
Then he follows up with a trite "This town has turned you into someone you're not" in the song "Let Me Go."
Never once will you feel compelled to listen to any other song more than once. But if you still want to milk the album for entertainment, you could read the creative titles the band came up with.

Placebo's new album offers crafty melodies

PALACE WASHINGTON POST AMERICAN 90
MUSIC REVIEW
Placebo: Without You I'm Nothing Rating: B
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
Placebo's melodic disharmony and lyric ambition gently pierce through the ears, rewarding the listeners of their new album with imaginative music.
The band's current hit "Pure Morning" can be seen on MTV and heard on every modern rock station in the country. It is one of the best songs radio has to offer today.
The song is based on one chord and succeeds in delivering ear candy. The droning chord is complemented by two guitar leads which are simple but work well together.
In this song, he descends down the one chord scale, singing in sync with the lead guitar rhythm. The vibrant drum track draws the listener closer. Every part works in perfect harmony leaving the listener with a desire to hear the rest of the album.
The following song, "Brick Shithouse," is an intense, but typical quasi-mosh tune. This song is a departure from the creativity of "Pure Morning," but still delivers clever vocals. Lead singer Brian Molko has a distinct voice. It's nasal but somehow gentle enough to work for modern rock. The clashing of the melody and the verses makes it hard on the ears, but the chorus provides a contrasting pleasant melody.
"You Don't Care About Us" offers a groove in the typical "alternative" fashion. The well-crafted lyrics send a message to hypocritical conservatives who pretend to care about everybody. A commendable effort but not the best song if you've had a bad day.
The rest of the album never emulates the innovative efforts of "Pure Morning," but still livens the state of today's music.
Murray shines in witty Rushmore
Bv Brendan Walsh
Kansan movie critic
An oddly irreverent coming-of-age story, *Rushmore* is a witty comedy with a compelling plot. Without losing any of its humor, the movie is an inspiring tale of how two men learn to age their age.
Fifteen-year-old Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman) is the overextended president of a half-dozen clubs and organizations at Rushmore, an elite prep school he is attending on academic scholarship. He hears a motivational speech given by Mr. Blume (Bill Murray), the school's richest alum. Awed by Mr. Blume'srant against Rushmore's elitists, Max, befriends the only man who he sees as genuine.
Contributed photo.
When the friends fall for the same woman, the recently widowed first-grade teacher Miss Cross (Olivia Williams), it sparks an intense competition that leads to Max's expulsion from Rushmore, and threatens the pair's friendship.
MOVIE REVIEW
But unlike The Graduate, Rushmore is not about a troubled youth searching for maturity and a direction in life. Instead, Max is a young
The plot blends beautifully with the movie's music. Any soundtrack with two Cat Stevens' songs has to be good, and that rule proves true with Rushmore. A collection of mostly folk-rock and British Invasion songs, the music compliments the story, while subtly taking off on Simon and Garfunkel's music from The Graduate.
Rushmore Rating: Aman far too worldly and mature for his age; he must recapture his youth or self-destruct. His counterpart, Mr. Blume, is a lovable drunk, but much too immature for his own good.
Murray tends to fare better in movies in which his character doesn't have to carry the entire plot on his shoulders. In Rushmore, Murray gets excellent support from first-time movie actor Schwartzman as well as Williams, whose only previous big-screen experience was in The Postman. Because Murray isn't the only talent in the film, he doesn't have to take his character above and
beyond the role that was written for him. This creates a subdued and intelligent portrayal of Mr. Blume. It's pretty hard to believe that Schwartzman is 15 years old, but since audiences don't usually have a problem with 19-year-old women playing 15-year-old girls, perhaps in the name of equality, they should let this slide.
The film does a great job of scene transitions, switching smoothly from the more serious and emotional scenes to the strictly comedic ones. In one such case, Max slyly sneaks his way into Miss Cross's bedroom and plays a tape of romantic music. Several moments later, when Cross is bemoaning the fate of her dead husband, the romantic music decreases in volume to keep the scene serious. All aspects of the movie blend to form a seamless whole.

The men's and women's track teams travel to Lincoln, Neb., this weekend to compete in the Husker Invitational, one of the largest indoor meets of the year, featuring nearly 900 athletes and 45 teams.
Teams from both coasts and the Midwest make the meet the most competitive atmosphere the Jayhawks have seen yet.
"It's kind of a meet for the best," coach Gary Schwartz said.
Kansas will use the meet to continue training and preparing for the Big 12 Indoor Championships, just two weeks away.
Halfway through the indoor season, the Jayhawks' fall training has begun to pay dividends.
"This week I felt pretty good," said sophomore All-American Andrea Branson. "Our preseason stuff has made sure of that."
Branson set a new personal record last week at the Northern Iowa Invitational in the pole vault, one of Kansas' strongest men's and women's' events. Her vault of 12 feet, 3 3/4 inches gave her the 10th best mark in the nation. Freshman Shannon Agee has been hot on Branson's heels thus far, finishing second last week with a vault of 11 feet, 11 3/4 inches.
Junior Garrett Attig, senior Colby Miller and sophomore Greg Steve have finished in the top four each of the last three meets, giving the men consistent scoring in that event.
Sophomore Scott Russell, ranked third in the nation in the 35 pound weight throw, has broken the KU school record in the last two meets, establishing a new record of 70 feet, 2 1/4 inches.
Sophomore Eric Patterson will try to continue his dominance in the 60-meter high hurdles, after winning titles in the last two meets
Senior Kevin McGinn proved his range as a middle-distance runner after winning the mile run two weeks ago. He won the 3,000 meter last weekend. McGinn said he would run the mile again this week, though, to establish which is his best event.
Sophomore Jabari Wamble also used a change-of-pace approach last weekend when he ran the 200-meter dash instead of the 400 meters.
"It felt good dropping to the 200 because it makes you stronger," Wamble said. "It's kinda like you get a break."
But with the number of runners who will be at Lincoln this weekend, Wamble will run the 400 meters this weekend.
"A lot of the top 400 runners in the nation will be there," he said. "It's a good way to gauge how I'm doing."
Field events kick off the meet this afternoon. Finals in the running events are tomorrow.
Women's basketball on a roll, to face Tigers
By Matt James
Kansan Sportswriter
It's time to take this winning show on the road.
The Kansas women's basketball team, now 7-3 in the Big 12 and 17-6 overall, will attempt to stretch its winning streak to five games when it travels to Columbia to battle the Missouri Tigers Sunday at 1 p.m. at the Hearnes Center.
Missouri (11-9, 4-6) struggled through the early Big 12 Conference schedule, suffering a 54-52 loss at Allen Fieldhouse on January 13. But the Tigers have been a much different team lately. They upset the formerly-ranked Nebraska Cornhuskers 74-66 at the Hearnes Center last Monday.
"It's tough to play at Missouri," said senior Nakia Sanford. "As a team, though, we're starting to play a lot harder and finding different ways to win. We should be fine."
The Jayhawks' modest four-game winning streak, especially Wednesday's comeback win over the Colorado Buffaloes, may not seem earthshattering, but it has provided answers to crucial questions about this season's squad — answers that could be the difference between a Final Four run or an early exit in the NCAA Tournament.
First of all, how would Kansas react if star junior Lynn Pride had a poor shooting game against a quality team?
Before the Colorado game, several of Kansas' players had commented that even Pride would have an off shooting night sooner or later and that the rest of the team would step up when the time came.
These comments may have made good sound bites, but the truth was that they couldn't be sure because it hadn't happened. Pride had scored double digits in all nine conference games and was averaging 21.5 points per game in Big 12 play before Wednesday's game.
So when Pride went 3 of 11 in the first half against Colorado and continued to struggle in the second, the Kansas front court had its opportunity to produce in the clutch — and did it ever.
While Pride drew double and triple teams, forwards Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson and center Sanford took over the scoring with their powerful inside play. The trio finished with 49 points and grabbed 26 rebounds. Lynn who?
Secondly, is the Kansas defense solid enough to make up for lack of depth and bench scoring?
If this four-game winning streak is any indication, the answer is a resounding yes. The Jayhawk defense held its last four opponents to an average of 50.3 points per game and 33 percent shooting. Those schools — Texas Tech, Texas, Kansas State and Colorado — all had winning records. The Texas Tech Lady Raiders were ranked sixth with a record of 17-1 before being swallowed by the Kansas defense.
The last question is more entertaining than insightful about the Jayhawks' future. Will Lynn Pride win the Big 12 Conference Player of the Year?
The race has come down to three players: Texas Tech's 6-foot-3-inch cent

Kansas, 15-6 overall and 7-2 in the Big 12, has won more games at a higher winning percentage than any other NCAA Division I men's basketball team this decade. But, apparently, this season's team, which is unranked for the first time in eight years, does not strike the same type of fear into the hearts of their opponents as Jayhawks of the past.
Although the Jayhawks have defeated Colorado in 19 straight games — most recently last Saturday's 77-74 sweaker — the Buffaloes are confident that streak will come to end Sunday in Boulder, Colo.
The winningest men's basketball program in the 1990s is suffering from a severe case of lack of respect.
"They've given us some good bulletin board material," Kansas center Eric Chenowith said. "They had some comments in the paper about us the next day. They thought they should have won and that we were intimidated, but they can say what they want. We are just going to go out and take care of business."
And they haven't been shy in sharing that belief with the media.
"I think they actually think they can beat us," Kansas guard Kenny Gregory said.
For the Jayhawks to do that they must address some of the problems that allowed Colorado to claw back into the game in
Men's Basketball
Allen Fieldhouse. Kansas led by as many 17 points in the first half of that game before falling apart prior to intermission.
"In the last 4:39, we scored a total of two points and acted like we never practiced a day the entire season," Coach Roy Williams said. "I think that gave Colorado a little more confidence and then their play gave them even more confidence because they totally outplayed us."
The majority of the Jayhawks' defensive problems arose from their inability to contain Colorado's guards, especially Jayquay Walls. The junior point guard scored 19 second-half points at Lawrence, including three three-point plays that resulted from his penetration into the Jayhawks interior defense.
"Jaquay Walls just about killed us," Williams said. "It showed us that we are still not doing a very good job on the perimeter with our defense and that we have got to do a better job stopping the penetration. If we don't do that this weekend, we are not going to win."
Williams said that a victory Sunday would give his young team some much needed confidence.
"One win doesn't give you confidence," Williams said. "But if we can follow it up and string two or three wins together, then our team would feel better about themselves and their possibilities."

Commentary
Allen's class act, recruiting talent to show on field
Take a break from Kansas hoops for a minute, though, and let's talk some Kansas football. After all, the basketball team is only playing Colorado this weekend. Surely we won't lose to them — at least as long as we have Jeff Boschee to save us.
Probably the last thing on Kansas sports fans' hands right now is football. The Super Bowl is over, the men's basketball team is chasing another Big 12 Championship and March Madness is almost here.
Wednesday was college football's signing day and Kansas signed a pretty impressive class. Allen called this 22-member recruiting class his best at Kansas so far.
The Kansas football team should finally start reflecting Allen's recruiting ability next year. When Allen arrived, he was forced to use the players recruited by Glen Mason, but Allen now has recruited three classes, and the team should start to take on his style and attitude.
We finally should start to see Allen's pass-oriented offense come to life. In his first couple of recruiting classes, he brought in some great wide receivers —
Harrison Hill, Terraine Fulton, Byron Gasaway, etc. Now Allen has started to bring in some quarterbacks who can get them the ball.

our own Mark Williams (quarterback of Kansas' 10-team in 1995). We lost out on great quarterback Zak Kustok, but had he signed with us, we would've had two quarterbacks named Zak, and that's too many.
We lost out on a few recruits at the eleventh hour — Cliff Holloman, who signed with K-State, and Kustok, who signed with Northwestern — but we also gained Reggie Duncan, a great running back from Texas we weren't expecting.
Overall, this is a great recruiting class for Kansas and a big step in the right direction. Allen is the right man to rebuild this program. When Allen announced that he was passing up a chance at his dream job at Iowa to stay at Kansas, he showed that he is absolutely committed to rebuilding this football program, and recruits can see that.
Terry Allen is the best thing to happen to Kansas sports since the signing of Roy Williams. He, like Roy, is an absolute gentleman on and off the field. He is sincere, honest and hard-working — and players and recruits love that. Zak Kustok felt terrible after deciding not to sign with Kansas, and it wasn't because he was upset about not getting to play in the half-full Memorial Stadium. Kustok felt bad for letting Allen down, a man who he had grown to truly like and respect during the last several months.
Allen will continue to recruit well because he is a good man and the recruits will know they can trust and believe in him. He will not lose too many more players like Kustok because they will not want to let him down. All Allen needs now is a winning season and a bowl berth, and the recruits should start rolling in. Next season could be that winning season.
I'm looking forward to next year with great anticipation. I hope to see Allen's pass-oriented offense come to life. I hope to see a more experienced Kansas team win those close games in the fourth quarter. Finally, I hope to see all of you in the stands supporting this team. We are getting close to being a winning program, so jump on the wagon now. Don't wait until we crack the Top 10 before you start showing your support like the pathetic K-State fans did. You support the basketball team through thick and thin — do the same for Allen and his football team. Allen is just as good a man as Williams and deserves your respect and support.
We are very lucky to have two great coaches who are also great men — support them and their teams.

Kansas City earns bid for volleyball champs
The University of Kansas, in conjunction with the Kansas City Sports Commission, submitted a bid to hold the event, which takes place the weekend prior to Christmas.
VOLLEYBALL
The proposed site for the event is Municipal Auditorium in Kansas City, Mo. Kansas associate athletics director Amy Perko, along
A
with three members of the Sports Commission, will make a presentation to the women's volleyball committee in person on Wednesday. The committee will then make its final decision the following week.
"We are excited to be one of the finalists because we believe Kansas City can provide a great atmosphere for a successful tourment," Perko said. "We have no doubts that the event would be a sellout. The University of Kansas staff enjoys working with Kansas City to bring quality events to this area."
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"We would be extremely pleased at the opportunity to co-host such and event," Bechard said. "I think the bid itself reflects the willingness on the part of our administration to be aggressive in its pursuit of prestigious events."
Kansas head volleyball coach Ray Bechard echoed Perko's sentiments.
The Championships are held in conjunction with the American Volleyball Coaches Convention and were most recently staged at the Kohl Center in Madison, Wis.

It'll start like this: Larry Bird's team will break from a huddle and walk to center court at Market Square Arena.
Bird's Pacers favored as NBA season starts
The place will be rocking, the ball will go up, someone will win the tip and the NBA season — after a bitter lockout, the retirement of Michael Jordan and brief training camps — will finally begin, 94 days late.
"Of course everyone would like to see Michael still in the league, but he is not and the league will continue to go on." Bird said. "And there will be new champions, not only this year but as the years pass."
Bird's team is being cast as the favorite in this abbreviated 50-game season, and Indiana will be the site of one of 11 NBA season-opening games as the Pacers play the Washington Wizards at 6 p.m.
SRI SANMAN BANK
Busy nights will be commonplace in the NBA this season as teams squeeze all their games into just 13 weeks.
"I think you will see a lot more intensity," Bird said. "The only problem I foresee is that if you have a major injury to one of your star players — if he misses a couple weeks — that's a lot of games. I think the team that stays the healthiest has probably got a better opportunity to win."
And the flip side, of course, is that the injured teams will be in for a struggle.
The Charlotte Hornets already have lost their two best players, Glen Rice and Anthony Mason, to injuries. Combined with the loss of centers Matt Geiger and Vlade Divac and guard Dell Curry to free agency, the Hornets will have a tough time when they open at home against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Cleveland at Atlanta, Detroit at Miami, Toronto at Boston, New York at Orlando, Sacramento at San Antonio, Minnesota at Denver, Chicago at Utah, Dallas at Seattle, Houston at
the Los Angeles Lakers and Phoenix at the Los Angeles Clippers are tonight's other NBA openers.

About a replacement, ABC Sports spokesman Mark Mandel said, "it would be premature to discuss our plans for next season."
Dierdorf's departure marks the second change of the ABC Monday Night broadcast team in two years. Ex-NFL quarterback Boomer Esiason replaced Frank Gifford following the 1997-98 season.
Albert, Sprewell return to NBA on same day
Both Marv Albert and Lattrell Sprewell will begin their comebacks on the same day, and at the same place.
Albert returns from a 16-month
absence to announce the Miami Heat New York Knicks game Sunday at Madison Square Garden.
He was fired by NBC in September 1997 after pleading to biting a former lover during a sexual encounter. He later had the misdemeanor assault conviction cleared from his record.
Sprewell is coming back after more than a year away from the NBA, now as a member of the Knicks, after being suspended for choking former coach P.J. Carlosimo.
Albert won't be working his old post as NBC's top play-by-play announcer. Instead, he'll be the radio voice of the Knicks on MSG cable network — the same station where he began his career.
"Obviously, I would certainly be one who believes in second chances," Albert said.
"I'll have a good type of anxiety," Albert said. "I'm just so happy to be back. The Heat-Knicks game is everything, and the Garden will be rocking. It's Miami with Pat Riley and Alonzo Mourning, and the return of Sprewell."
Albert's goal is to return to NBC, where he worked for 20 years, or another network.
But it's not up to him.
"Right now, our stable of announcers is tied up, and we'd have to wait and see when something opens up," NBC Sports chairman Dick Ebersol said. "I'll never close the door on it because I think Marv's paid his debt. If he doesn't return here, I wouldn't be surprised at all to see one network pick him up."
"Hopefully someday I'll be talking to that type of audience again," Albert said. "But I tume that out for now and am not even thinking about that stuff vet."
Albert, who has called six NBA finals in his 30-year broadcasting career, will handle the play-by-play duties for about 35 Knicks games this season for MSG.

Pride proving her game goes beyond offense

ter Angie Braziel, averaging 20.1 points per game while owning the post for the Lady Raiders; Iowa State's 5-8 guard Stacy Frese, who is shooting a mind-boggling 51.8 percent from the three-point line; (second best in the nation) and Kansas' preseason favorite, Pride.
Although Pride went 3 of 16 Wednesday, head coach Marian Washington said the mental toughness that the 6-foot-2-inch junior displayed in the Colorado game was exactly what had made her the front-runner for the award.
"When something isn't on, the great players find another way to contribute," said Washington. "That's what makes her special."
Pride could have been discouraged by her poor shooting and could have become timid on the court, but she simply increased the intensity of other parts of her game, especially her defense.
Pride disrupted the Colorado offense, deflecting passes and inspiring her teammates by diving for loose ball after loose ball.
"She's one of the best players in the country," said Washington.
If the Jayhawks can continue to improve they could become one of the best teams in the country.

Hearnes Center • Columbia, Mo.
Sunday, Feb. 7, 1 p.m.
Sure, our men's basketball team has won two straight and seems to have turned things around. Kenny Gregory has put on a T-shirt and pulled up his socks and suddenly started scoring again.
The Jayhawks have started playing better with wins against Colorado and
Kansas State. But they remain a shadow of teams seen around Allen Fieldhouse in recent years.
Penny
But there's another team that slowly has been making waves inside the fieldhouse. Its home-court winning streak is a third of the men's legendary 62-game streak at 20 games, but it is twenty times longer than the men's current streak.

The men have fallen from the Top 25 for the first time in eight years, while this other team, which plays in front of at best a half-filled fieldhouse, is climbing back up the polls.
Eric Chenowith, the leading scorer for the men's team, averages 13.4 points per game, while this other team has a player who is a preseason All-American candidate and averages 18.3 points per game.
The Kansas women's basketball team is living in almost oblivion while having a good year. The Kansas men's basketball team is living infamously during a year in which some may say they are faltering.
Don't get me wrong, I've discovered I'm as guilty as anyone of cheering for the men while ignoring the women. It was called to my attention the other night.
I was being a good sister and entertaining some of my freshman brother's friends. It was a warm evening, and we were taking advantage of it by hanging out on my front porch.
discussing — sports and politics — I limited the discussion to these.
Being a senior and obviously containing much more knowledge than these young fledglings, I felt obligated to share my wealth of knowledge. Because I feel there are only two subjects really worth
I began with sports. This year's basketball team may not be as dominant as some of the recent ones, but oh baby, wait until tournament time. This is the kind of team Roy Williams loves. Without the blockbuster names that the previous teams have possessed, Williams will be able to mold this team into a finetuned machine that will not falter around tournament time.
After sharing this and other sports knowledge I moved onto politics. I made a bold statement, "The Republican presidential nominee for 2000 will be Bush/Dole."
A still quiet fell over the porch. The only noise interrupting it was the sound of my dog running into the door on her never-ending chase of imaginary bugs.
"Do you mean Elizabeth Dole?" A brave freshman intoned.
That was exactly what I meant George W. Bush and Elizabeth Dole.
"I don't think a woman should be in that kind of position of power," the same freshman continued. "I think women should stay home and support their husbands."
This was not some innocent 18-year-old guy - this was a female, a National Merit Scholar no less.
The conversation continued late into the evening and has weighed on my mind since. I began to question my own values and beliefs. Suddenly my running joke that my life goal was to marry a senator no longer seemed so funny.
Why do I continually support a men's team that is a shadow of its former self, while I can count the number of women's games I've attended on one hand.
The women's team is on a phenomenal run. Lynn Pride is putting up outstanding numbers, Brooke Reves is having a break-out year and Nakia Sanford scored a career-high 24 points.
It's time that this campus began to support the women's basketball team the way it supports the men's team.

Senior women want to make big splash at last home meet
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
It is the beginning of the end for five members of the Kansas women's swimming and diving team.
For the last time in their lives,
seniors Quincy Adams, Deanna Beiswanger, Julie Tompkins, Adrienne Turner and Jeanine Wilk will compete at home. The men's and women's teams will face Iowa State at 2 p.m. tomorrow at Robinson Natatorium. The men's last home meet of the year will be against Iowa Feb. 13.
Wilk, like her other senior teammates, is looking forward to the meet, but she expects to feel some nostalgia.
yet."
"It's going to be kind of an emotional meet," Wilk said. "I'm really excited, though."
"It's kind of a mixed feeling, she said. "I'm kind of sad, I guess. It's almost not believable, not real
For Tompkins, it is inconceivable that Saturday is her last meet at home and one of the last meets of her lifetime.
Coach Gary Kemp said that this year's women's senior class was one he would miss.
"They've just done a fantastic job," Kempf said. "Part of the reason our women's team is doing so well is because of our five senior girls."
Not only have they excelled as team leaders, they also have developed friendships that have made the four years of sore muscles and intense training seem more bearable.
I miss the closeness that I have with the entire team, especially my class," Turner said. "Never again will I have that opportunity to be so close with so many people."
Wilk feels the same way.
"The friends I've had, how close we seniors are," Wilk said. "That's going to be something I'll carry for the rest of my life."
Despite the familial bond between team members, the seniors knew the time would come when they would have to retire their Speeds.
"Swimming has been a hugged part of my life for 14 years now, and I'm
ready for it," Turner said. "There's a time when you have to move on."
Although she said she had enjoyed her time at Kansas, Tompkins, who has been swimming for 15 years, is excited to start her new life without swimming.
"It's been a long time," Tompkins said. "And I think it's my time to be done with it."
Neither Tompkins, nor Turner nor Wilk plan to continue their swimming careers after their last collegiate meet. For Tompkins and Wilk, that meet is the Conference Championship Feb. 18-20 at the University of Texas.
For Turner, ranked 19th in the nation in the 200-meter butterfly, the NCAA Championships are a possibility.
Wilk plans on getting involved in triathlons after her college career and is thrilled about the prospect of smelling like perfume rather than chlorine.
"I won't have to go to my class in sweats and a wet-haired bun," Wilk said. "People won't be asking, 'What's that bleach smell?' all the time."

Tyson could lose boxing license again
WASHINGTON — Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson once again faces jail time and the possible loss of his boxing license. It all depends on a judge's decision.
Tyson goes to court today for sentencing on two counts of second-degree assault stemming from an altercation following a minor traffic accident in August.
The sentence will help determine whether Tyson will have to return to jail in Indiana for violating probation for a rape conviction, and it could lead boxing authorities to strip him of his license once again.
Tyson's lawyers will ask for probation. In a memo this week to Judge Stephen Johnson, they argued Tyson would become a useful and contributing member of the community if he were spared jail time, received more psychiatric help and continued to perform volunteer work.
The prosecutor, Montgomery County State's Attorney Douglas Gansler, wants Tyson behind bars, but is hampered by a plea agreement negotiated by his predecessor, Robert Dean. In December, Tyson pleaded no contest — meaning he neither protests the charges nor admits guilt — and Dean promised in return that the state would not seek a jail sentence.
"It's not an agreement that I would have reached," said Gansler, who defeated Dean in the Democratic primary.
Although he can't ask for jail in the courtroom, Gansler has done so in public. Paul Kemp, one of Tyson's lawyers, said Gansler's remarks broke the plea agreement and were a violation of the rules of professional conduct.
Tyson kicked one motorist and punched another after the accident in the Washington suburb of Gaithersburg, Md., on Aug. 31. The two victims, Abmielec Saucedo and Richard Hardick, settled out of court, and are ready to tell the judge that Tyson shouldn't go to jail.

Strong rebounder helps Iowa State
The Associated Press
AMES, Iowa — Basketball is often a hit-and-miss affair for Iowa State's Steve Johnson.
Johnson will hit when a team-mate misses
That is happening with increas
because Johnson has turned into a relentless offensive rebounder, a Dennis Rodman minus the antics and colorful hair.
"C o a c h stresses to me a lot to try to go every time on the offensive glass because a lot of nights
PETER T. MCKAY
our shots won't fall for us and that's going to be our best offense — the offensive rebound," Johnson said.
"So I just try to get angles to the basket so I can go get offensive rebounds," he said.
He has gotten plenty lately. During one stretch, Johnson posted double-figure rebounding totals in three straight games. He's averaging 7.3 per game, and his 68 offensive rebounds are 19 more than anyone else on the team.
Those rebounds are helping Johnson's offensive game, which never really has taken off in his two-plus seasons with the Cyclones.
"You get an offensive rebound, you get an easy putback," Johnson said. "That's two points there — however you can get it."
Still, he says, it's not just jumping.
At 6-fette-4, Johnson battles players who are much taller. But he has long arms and big hands, has developed a keen sense of timing and is an outstanding jumper. Johnson has been dunking since the seventh grade and has a 38-inch vertical lean.
“It's reading the flight of the ball and getting to it quicker,” Johnson said. “You can't outjump a lot of them, but you can be quicker to the basketball.”
Coach Larry Eustachy said there
"We spend a lot of time on rebounding — we emphasize it a lot," Eustachy said. "So he's taken what we talked about and put it into the game."
was no secret behind Johnson's rebounding, only hard work.
Former coach Tim Floyd also
Former coach stressed rebounding. It just didn't result in a lot of rebounds for Johnson in the games. He averaged 1.7 rebounds
CYTONES
as a top reserve his freshman year and 3.7 as a starter last season.
"I've still got a lot of improvement that I can make in my rebounding game, but I've gotten a lot better," Johnson said. "Earlier in the season, I had to think about how I had to do this or that. Now, from repetition, you just do it. It's automatic, just go."
Johnson also is becoming a little more offensive minded. In high school, he was the No. 2 scorer in Mississippi history with 3,435 points. He averaged 27 points a game as a senior, yet has never
scored more than 17 in a game at Iowa State.
One reason is that Iowa State has been primarily a half-court offensive team during his stay. Johnson is best in the open court where he can use his speed and athleticism, dunking on fast breaks or after stealing the ball.
"I've got to be more aggressive," said Johnson, whose 8.3 scoring average is the best of his career at Iowa State. "My team doesn't look for me a lot to score, but I think I should look a little more whenever I have an opening or get somebody else open for an assist."
Johnson said he worked on his jump shot last summer, and Eustachy would like to see him work even more when this season ends. If Johnson were a threat from 15 to 18 feet, there's no telling what kind of offensive player he could become, especially with the double-teaming that Marcus Fizer gets inside.
"When they're doubling down on Marcus, that leaves a lot of perimeter players open," Johnson said. "You've just got to step up and hit the shot."
Basketball future prods Evans to return to team
The Associated Press
WICHITA — After a week of turmoil and indecision, basketball star Maurice Evans has returned to his Wichita State team.
"If I want to continue my future in basketball, I can't be labeled as a quitter." Evans told reporters following Wednesday's practice.
Evans walked out of practice Jan. 26, had not attended practice since then and missed two games — both Wichita State losses.
Coach Randy Smithson said there would be no penalties, and Evans would play in Thursday's game against Evansville.
Evans had complained that the Wichita State basketball program demeans and isolates its players and said several other players were thinking of quitting as well.
Athletic officials said after a team meeting Monday that concerns were widespread among team members but had not reached a mutinous level.
"I think we all have suffered long enough," Smithson said. "It hasn't been any fun for any one of us, and we are just happy the team has gotten to this point and they are together. I think all these kinds of things have helped pull this team together, and we are ready to move on."
Smithson said Evans wanted to come back, and the university wanted him back.
"Like Coach said, we are not going to hold anything against one another," Evans said. "We are going to go out and work together and try to make this team for the best."
"I never kicked him off, he never quit and the door was always open," Smithson said. "We never expected to lose Maurice, and we've always made him a four-year commitment. As far as I know, he has made us one."
Wichita State (9-12 overall), 3-8 Missouri Valley Conference) has lost its last two games without Evans, its leading scorer.
On several occasions this season, Evans, a 6-foot-5 sophomore guard/forward, was the No.1 scoreer
WSU
Wichita State University
in NCAA Division I ranks. He averages 23 points and 4.4 rebounds a game.
The news of Evans' return was welcomed by university officials and fans alike.
Tom Devin, a major university contributor and Shocker booster, said he was pleased with Evans' decision to come back.
"Both people — coach Smithson and Evans — can grow from it," Devin said.
Meanwhile, an internal investigation continues. University president Don Beggs appointed Ted Ayres, the university's chief attorney, to look into the players' concerns.
Ayres said Wednesday he expected to complete that job this week.
One of the key people who convinced Evans to return to the team was a man who recently had had a falling out with Smithson.
Kerry Rosenboom, Wichita State's strength coach, met with Evans late Tuesday and counseled him to return to the Shockers. Evans also discussed his decision with his parents, George and Cathy Evans.
Rosenboom said that Evans was as good a person as he ever had met, and he just needed someone to talk to.
Rosenboom said he had heard rumors and talked on Wichita sports radio that he had instigated Evans' absence. Rosenboom said that was untrue, that the rumors have hurt his reputation and that he may look for work elsewhere.
Evans said, "It's great to have feedback from anyone, especially someone you can trust and someone who's so valuable to the program."
Smithson and Rosenboom were involved in miscommunication that recently drove the two apart, Smithson said. Neither would elaborate.
Pittsburgh loses its leading scorer to stress injury
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh University's basketball team, already shaken this season by a player arrest and coach Ralph Willard's resignation, will be without its leading scorer. Vontego Cummings, for at least one game and possibly longer.
Cummings has a stress-related back injury that will keep him on the sidelines for tomorrow's game against No. 9 St. John's and, likely, Monday's game at Seton Hall.
The Panthers, 11-10, 2-8 in the Big East, hope the 6-foot 5 Cummings can return for their Feb. 11 game at Rutgers, but it depends how he responds to rest and treatment
Willard said Cummings had played in pain for several weeks and was so sore following Tuesday's 76-58 loss at Georgetown that the senior guard was crying in the locker room.
Willard initially suspected Cummings had a stress fracture in his back, which could have sidelined Cummings indefinitely.
But a CAT scan performed Wednesday determined that Cummings had a stress reaction in his back, an injury not as serious as a fracture.
Cummins scored eight of his 10 points in the first half of the Georgetown game but was noticeably bothered by his injury in the second half.
Considered by NBA scouts to be a likely first-round draft choice, Cummings has clearly been off his game in recent weeks. His slump has coincided with Pittsburgh's string of 10 losses in its last 15 games. The Panthers started 8-0.
"I think the reason we're losing these games is me." Cummings said after the Georgetown game. "Something is wrong with my back. I don't know what it is. I'm good for the first half, but in the second half, I'm no good. I have to help my team more. If I can't, I shouldn't play."
Cummings' scoring average has fallen to 16.6 overall and 13.8 in the Big East, and he is shooting 42.8 percent.
He has played up to his early-season form only once in recent weeks, a 31-point performance in an 86-65 loss at Villanova on Jan. 19. Hours before that game, Pittsburgh freshman guard Fred Primus was arrested on theft charges for stealing $2,200 worth of jewelry and was thrown off the team.
Willard resigned Monday, after athletic director Steve Pederson could not assure him of returning next season. Pederson is looking for a successor, and former St. John's coach Fran Fraschilla might be interested. Fraschilla was fired last spring and is scouting this season for the New York Knicks.

Broncos star McCaffrey seeks sleep before game
The Associated Press
HONOLULU — Ed McCaffrey looked like a man badly in need of a nap.
The Denver Broncos' wide receiver tried to add up his hours of sleep during the past four days. The total, he decided, was about 10 hours.
But he certainly wasn't complaining about the hectic schedule that began in Miami with the Super Bowl, stretched across to Denver for a victory parade, then to Los Angeles for a TV appearance with Jay Leno, then aired with the Pro Bowl in Hawaii.
"I'm just trying
NFL
"I'm just trying to let it all soak in," McCaffrey said, shaking his head at the blur of the past four days. "I do know I've had an awful lot of fun."
The fun will continue Sunday
when McCaffrey and no fewer than nine of his Denver teammates will suit up for the AFC and compete against the NFC all-stars at Alauna Stadium.
While some of the Broncos practiced for the first time with the AFC on Wednesday, three Denver all-stars — John Elway, Terrell Davis and Steve Atwater — had not arrived yet in Hawaii.
"We had a great year, we won it all, and now I'm here at the Pro Bowl. This is what it's all about," Romanowski said.
Bill Romanowski was another who made it to practice.
The Broncos linebacker has appeared in more Super Bowls than Pro Bowls. Romanowski will be making just his second Pro Bowl appearance this year. The 11-year veteran has won two Super Bowl rings with the Broncos after playing for the champion 49ers in 1988 and 1989.
Also Wednesday, Minnesota Vikings running back Robert Smith was named as a replacement for Detroit's Barry Sanders, who has injured ribs.
Smith, who will be making his first appearance in the Pro Bowl, finished the 1998 season fifth in the NFC in rushing with 1,187 yards.
Irish's identity at stake in Big Ten negotiations
The Associated Press
SOUTH BEND Ind
SOUTH BEND, Ind. There's more at stake than just 111 years of football independence Friday when Notre Dame's trustees decide whether to go ahead with negotiations to join the Big Ten.
"Notre Dame's identity nationally is so linked to football that people worry if the football program were restricted from a national schedule to a regional schedule, that would have an impact on the identity," said Notre Dame professor George Sterling, who favors the move.
Even though the decision affects far more than the football team, how the Big Ten would affect the future of the Irish legacy is of utmost concern to most with ties to the school.
"The only thing we're really addressing here is the extent to which the athletic department is advanced or not by virtue of our football program
changing its status," said athletic director Mike Wadsworth.
As an independent, Notre Dame takes home every cent of its gate receipts, all of proceeds from bowl payouts and an estimated $7 million a year
N
in its exclusive TV contract with NBC, expected to jump to $8 million a year for the 2000-2005 seasons.
As a member of the Big Ten, it would enter a revenue-sharing program that splits up a portion of each school's gate receipts from football and basketball, bowl revenues, TV contracts and proceeds from the NCAA basketball tournaments, Delaney said.
An overwhelming majority of Notre Dame alumni don't think the Irish are a good fit for the Big Ten, in part because the decision has academic implications as well.
Notre Dame, known for its
undergraduate programs, trails far behind the Big Ten schools in research and graduate programs. Some see joining the Big Ten as a way to improve those programs because conference affiliation also includes membership in the Committee on Institutional Cooperation
But some also see that as a threat to Notre Dame's Catholic identity, especially in a conference of secular schools. Some Big Ten presidents have grumbled privately that Notre Dame's weak graduate programs are not a good fit for the Big Ten, either.
"Our brand name is something special. We'd rather be one of one than one of 12," said Chuck Lennon, executive director of the Alumni Association. "Not that we're better than anybody. We're different, and I think that's important because there is a very positive feeling about the quality of the Big Ten academically and athletically, but it just is not the right mix for us."
Davenport advances in Pan Pacific Open
The Associated Press
TOKYO — Top-ranked professional tennis player Lindsay Davenport, playing her first singles match since the Australian Open semifinals, beating Mary Joe
Fernandez 6-4, 6-4 yesterday in the second round of the Pan Pacific Open.
"Starting the tournament late is always tough." Davenport said. "When you have a bye, it's not so much a matter what day you start on, but playing someone who has already played a match. And on this (carpet) surface, that's always a huge advantage. That's why sometimes qualifiers have a big advantage."
But Davenport, the defending champion, said the fast surface was perfect for her powerful game.
FRED HAYES
Davenport: Faces No. 7 Amanda Coetzer today.
"The surface is very different from anything we have played on the whole year, but I find it's more probably
to my advantage than a lot of others," she said. "If I serve well and hit the ball hard, it would be very hard for some of the players to play really aggressively against me."
Today, Davenport will face seventh-seeded Amanda Coetzer of South Africa, who defeated Belgium's Els Callens 2-6, 1-7, 7-5.
German star Steffi Graf, seeded fifth, set up a quarterfinals match against three-time Australian Open winner Martina Hingis, beating Russia's Elena Lithovtseva 2-6, 7-6 (7-4), 6-2.
Hingis, the Swiss teen-ager ranked No.2 in the world, won her second-round match Wednesday.
Kansan Classified
In other second-round matches, sixth-seeded Anna Kournikova of Russia beat Zimbabwe's Cara Black 6-2, 6-3; third-seeded Jana Novotna of the Czech Republic defeated South Africa's Mariana de Sardart 6-2, 6-2; and eight-seeded Natalash Zvereva of Belarus beat the United States' Lisa Raymond 6-3, 6-2.

Sport of the Week
Roller hockey club creates excitement, shoots for more
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Let's get one thing straight, no checking means more offense, more offense means more excitement and higher-scoring excitement results in your typical roller hockey game.
The KU Roller Hockey Club is in its sixth year and 1999 squad finally has produced what club members have envisioned all along, a winning record.

The club was founded when the ice hockey club at the University was dropped. While the basics of ice hockey transfer to the roller arena, there are several differences in both rules and styles that make roller hockey more exciting for some club members.
Sean Cosgrove, club president and Chicago junior, said games were usually high-scoring and exciting.
"You rarely get ties. 7-6 is your typical roller hockey score, and with the wider rink and less players, the offense has a lot more of an advantage." Cosgrove said.
As far as similarities and differences to its father sport, ice hockey, roller hockey has undergone a facelift that makes it a different game.
There are five members on the rink at once; two defensemen, two forwards, and a goalie. In ice hockey there is an additional forward, making the total number of players six.
The roller hockey rink is wider than an ice hockey rink, and instead of three twenty-minute periods, roller hockey games

consist of two, 23-minute halves.
Almost all of the rules and penalties from ice hockey apply to roller hockey, such as high sticking, interference, and charging, but icing and offsides do not exist in the roller hockey leagues.
"With no offsides you've got to watch where you
are on the ice. Sometimes an opponent will be down by your net," Cosgrove said. Cosgrove said that straight
Cosgrove said that straight out hitting was not allowed in
roller hockey but that some players disregarded the no hitting rule in an attempt to intimidate their opponents.
"Ihft people and take my two minute penalty," said Michael Rappaport, Minneapolis sophomore.
The open nature of the club allows players to use this tactic. Cosgrove said the club was entirely team run. There is no coach, and if someone sees something in practice they want to work on, they speak up, he said.
The open nature of the club allows players to use this tactic.
Club vice-president and league scoring leader, Adam Snetzer, Dallas sophomore, said that once he and Cosgrove became the team's leaders, the club had run much smoother.
There are 22 members in the club, and similar to most clubs at Kansas, it is partially funded by the University, but generates most of its revenue through fund raising such as T-shirt,
hat, jacket and Jersey sales.
“It's disappointing because we can't go to all of the places we're invited to because of travel expenses, but we get to go to a couple a year.” Snetzer said.
Although the club members have to be selective about which tournaments they attend, they made the trip to Las Vegas for the Black Biscuit Invitational Tournament in October where they placed fourth.
The team competes in the Great Plains Hockey League which consists of 12 teams from Kansas and Missouri. The top six teams in the conference advance to the regional tournament in St. Louis. The top five teams from St. Louis go on to the national tournament in Chicago, a trip the club is planning to make.
"Our offense is a lot better this year, and our defense has put a lot of heart into it." Snetzer said.
The club's record is now 12-6, with four games remaining. The club's games are scheduled once every two to three weekends. Home games are played at Sport 2 Sport, 5200 Clinton Pkwy.
For several die hard ice hockey fans the KU Roller Hockey Club has provided a great replacement for the game they grew up loving.
"It's a game I love playing. When it's game time, I'm just as much a competitor as anybody, and I want to win, but it still remains fun and is a great way to blow off some steam," Cosgrove said.
Snetzer agreed wholeheartedly.
"I would never give it up for ice hockey, ever."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
(USPS 650-640)
Low turnout may close KU voting site
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
The Student Legislative Awareness Board is fighting the county's decision to shut down a polling site at Allen Fieldhouse.
The county wants to discontinue use of the site, which was used by only 28 student voters in the 1993 City Commission elections.
Patty Jaimes, Douglas County clerk,
said the site was inefficient.
"My goal is to work as hard as it takes to convince the county to keep the site open," Moore said. "There's an administrative wall, but where there's a will, there's a way. We have to make sure that voters have access to a polling site."
He said he expected higher student voter turnout in this April's City Commission elections.
as public transportation, Saferide and bar ordinances.
Moore said he had received phone calls and letters each week from students concerned about city issues such
Jaimes said Daisy Hill and Jayhawker Towers residents could vote at Schwegeler Elementary School on Ousdahl Road instead.
"It's not cost-effective to have three people there for 14 hours with only 28 voters," she said.
He said he predicted that at least 500 students would vote at the fieldhouse site if the county kept it in operation.
Tom Moore, SLAB campus director, said he was angry about the county's decision. He said the fieldhouse polling site should remain open because it was convenient for many students.
"The county's decision is sending the signal that local officials do not want students to vote," Moore said. "We need to create a system that makes it easier for students to vote in local elections."
Moore said he planned to contact the Secretary of State's office about the
issue. He said SLAB would be able to get volunteer staff and funds to keep the site open if necessary.
Moore said he also planned to propose an at-large polling site at Wescoe Beach for coming years.
Tina Terry, Topeka junior and Naismith Hall resident, said she planned to vote in the City Commission elections. She said she would use the fieldhouse site if it remained open.
"It would be a good place to go to vote. It's close," Terry said.

Board opts to merge bus routes
Half-hour pick-ups shorter rides expected
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Students who ride the Sixth Street bus routes will be spending less time on the bus next fall.
The Student Senate Transportation Board has decided to combine the two bus routes that serve Sixth Street.
One of the results of the route changes will be shorter bus rides and pick-ups every half hour instead of every hour because both buses will be serving the same route.
The transportation board made its decision two weeks ago.
Maria Candia, Paraguay sophomore, sometimes has to wait on campus for more than an hour, she said, because she does not have enough time to go home.
"I don't like it when they pick me up every hour," Candia said. "I think it work much better every half an hour." Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator, said the West Sixth Street route did not serve many apartment complexes and did not have many riders.
"It is the most inefficient route," she said. "We're trying to make the route more efficient."
The West Sixth Street route now extends to Eldridge Road. The board decided to cut off the route at Frontier Road. It will still serve the Boardwalk and Sunrise apartment complexes, but not Eagle apartment complex.
The Sixth Street and Crestline Road route will be extended to Frontier Road. Both routes will run through Highpointe apartment complex and Gertrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall.
Skalla said that the disadvantage to the route changes was that students who lived beyond Frontier Road would no longer have bus service.
Skalla said the board did not want to continue extending routes further west because it was inefficient. She said she thought most students who lived in that area owned vehicles, so they could use the Park and Ride system.
The board also decided to include a stop
BUS ROUTE CHANGES

The Sixth Street bus will no longer go past Frontier Road.

at Haskell Indian Nations University on the East Lawrence route. The route now runs down 23rd Street but does not stop at Haskell because of the heavy traffic.
Skalla said creating a bus route to Super Target was no longer a possibility. She said it would be too expensive and impractical.
She said the board will be discussing the improvement of bus service to East Lawrence on 14th, 15th, New Hampshire and Rhode Island streets.
The downtown route now goes only to 11th and New Hampshire streets, and the East Lawrence route goes only to 19th Street.
Journal editor accepts KU award
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
Albert R. Hunt, executive Washington editor of The Wall Street Journal, was awarded the 50th annual National Citation Award of the William Allen White Foundation.
"A look at the other recipients is awe-inspiring and more than a little humbling," Hunt said during his acceptance speech.
During Hunt's stay at the University of Kansas, he spoke on a panel that discussed media sensationalism, spoke with students in a political science class and met members of KU student media before he accepted the award Friday at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
Hunt followed in the footsteps of past winners such as: Bill Kurtis, David S. Broder, Bernard Shaw, George F. Will, Charles Kuralt, Jim Lehrer, Robert MacNeil and Walter Cronkite.
Journalism school dean Jimmy Gentry, who presided at the ceremony, said Hunt had earned his place among those names.
The award was named for William Allen White, who was the editor of The Emporia Gazette during the first half of the century.
White won a Pulitzer in 1923 for an editorial he wrote for the Gazette. The KU school of journalism is named for White.
Before the award ceremony, Hunt had the chance to speak in Burdett Loomis' Legislatures in the United States class. Gerald Seib. Hunt's colleague at The Wall Street Journal, joined him.

Grant to finance campaign to reduce binge drinking
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has received $450,000 from the Kansas Health Foundation to launch a media campaign that has been shown to reduce binge drinking on other college campuses, University officials said.
The program will replicate a model developed at Northern Illinois University, said Associate Provost Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, who will direct the project at the University. Most of the money will be spent on advertisements illustrating that heavy drinking is not normal.

The University will work with Michael P. Haines, who developed the program at Northern Illinois University.
The University will buy ads in The University Daily Kansan and on television and radio stations, place them on buses and hand out literature at events such as New Student Orientation, she said.
McCluskey-Fawcett said the campaign did not take a punitive tone or rely on scare tactics.
"This is the opposite of 'This is your brain on drugs,' she said. "This presents the data of the reality of what people are doing."
While binge drinking rates on college campuses have held steady nationwide, Northern Illinois University's binge drinking has dropped by 35 percent since

Arizona University also has had
success with the program,
McCluskey-Fawcett said.
An October 1998 survey conducted by the University and Haskell found that 58 percent of KU students had engaged in binge drinking in the past two weeks.
A full-time facilitator will be hired to handle the project, and the Office of University Relations, the School of Fine Arts and the School of Journalism also will participate.
"This is all about educating our young people so they can make smart and safe decisions about alcohol," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said in a statement.
The University applied for the grant as part of a joint community effort with Haskell and Lawrence to prevent alcohol abuse.
Kevin Yoder, student body pres
"That was the kind of message I tried to convey to the committee," Yoder said. "It doesn't matter if an 18-year-old has a beer, just like it doesn't matter if a 30-year-old has a beer. What does matter is if he'd drinks so much he goes out and has a wreck or has to drop out of school."

drinking, but there is something wrong with abusive drinking," he said.
"We're concerned about the health-related issues that might result from drinking," said Mary Campuzano, vice president for programs at the foundation. "Most typically in young people college-age, we're talking about car accidents, and there have been national incidents reported of alcohol poisoning."
The $450,000 grant will be spent during 41/2 years and is part of a $1.5 million statewide campaign that also will include Fort Hays State University and two other colleges.

Students can voice their opinions of alcohol laws
Students will have the chance to voice their opinions about underage drinking to University of Kansas administrators, city officials and bar owners at an open forum tonight.
The Student Legislative Awareness Board will be host of a forum for discussion about alcohol-related issues at 8 p.m. in the Pioneer Room at the Burge Union.
Tom Moore, SLAB campus director, said he wanted to consider the effects of underage drinking laws.
Moore said the forum was a reaction to the intense coverage of alcohol issues and the city's strict enforcement of underage drinking laws during the last few months.
Some of the guests at the forum will include Mayor Marty Kennedy; David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs; Barbara Ballard, assistant vice chancellor of student affairs; John Heleniak, owner of The Hawk, 1340 Ohio St.; Rob Farha, owner of Wheel Cafe, 507 W. 14th St.; and representatives of alcohol-related interest groups.
Sarah Schreck, Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said she hoped the mayor would explain why there has been an increase in the number of minor in possession arrests.
"We hope that we can come to an understanding," she said. "Students can give the administration ideas about what they think."

Schreck said some of the topics of discussion will be bar closings, underage drinking and Saferide.
The man, who was alone, was given an undisclosed amount of cash and fled on foot. Warren said.
A man in a ski mask walked into First State Bank & Trust, 609 Vermont St., at 2:40 p.m. Friday and demanded to be given money, Sgt. Mark Warren of the Lawrence Police department said.
Police said the suspect did not use a weapon in the robbery and no one was injured.
Police have not located the suspect, who was described by witnesses as a 6-foot-tall man with a husky build.

Frequent road rage spurs
negotiation for new law
law
TOPEKA — Road rage is something most Kansans know about, either by seeing it or doing it.
It can be as simple as a rude gesture
or as violent as customizing a car with a crowbar or whipping out a gun.
At its extreme, it can lead to injury or even death. Its causes are as many as there are people driving the streets and highways.
"Everybody has done it or has had it done to them. It tends to follow our general pattern of how we act out our anger in life," said Richard irons, an anger management expert at The Menninger Clinic.
Maybe not everyone has experienced road rage, but certainly enough Kansans have for Sen. Ben Vidricksen to want the Legislature to make road rage behavior a crime in this state.
To that end, his Transportation and Tourism Committee is considering a bill that spells out what constitutes road rage or "aggressive driving," as it is called in the law books.
Under the proposal, the driver must be speeding and commit two moving violations, such as improper passing, failing to yield or tailging. The driver also must present an immediate hazard to others.
House to have hearing on concealed-weapons bill
TOPEKA — Kansans would be allowed to carry concealed handguns under a bill a House committee will consider this week.
The House Federal and State Affairs Committee will have hearings Monday and Tuesday on a bill that would enable the Kansas Bureau of Investigation to issue licenses allowing people to carry concealed guns beginning Jan. 1,2000.
Gov. Bill Graves vetested a similar bill in 1997, and opinions vary widely among legislators.
The bill would require people to complete a weapons safety and training course before they could acquire a license to carry a concealed handgun.
License applicants also would have to be 21 years old, have no felony convictions and have no history of mental illness or drug or alcohol abuse in the previous five years.
Graves may prove to be the biggest obstacle to the bill's enactment. Graves' position on the issue has not changed since his 1997 veto, said Mike Matson, his spokesman.
Missouri and Nebraska prohibit carrying concealed weapons, while Colorado and Oklahoma allow the practice
Missouri will become the first state to have a public referendum on the matter when it puts the issue to a vote in April.

Distraught citizens sobbed in the streets and world leaders converged on the desert kingdom, united in grief for the statesman who brought bridges of peace to the turbulent Middle East.
The deep political divides between those planning to attend today's elaborate state funeral served as a powerful reminder of Hussein's far-reaching abilities as a mediator and leader — skills that lifted Jordan into a place of international prominence.
Hussein, who had fought a seven-month battle with lymphatic cancer, had lingered unconscious on a respirator for two days after returning home to Jordan last week to die.
In keeping with Islamic tradition, the funeral will be held quickly — an enormous procession through the streets of Amman just 24 hours after Hussein's heart gave out.
Underscoring Jordan's determination that the transition be swift and smooth, Hussein's eldest son Abdulah, 37, was sworn in just four hours later in a solemn ceremony at parliament.
President Clinton and first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton were among those planning to attend.

Hunt addresses students, faculty about journalism
Continued from page 1A
Hunt and Seib had told many interesting stories.
In his acceptance speech, Hunt said that a number of problems faced journalism today. He said one problem was the role of the Internet.
"It gave kind of a personal face to the people we had just been reading about," Hostetler said.
Hunt also said there was an abundance of unearned cynicism in the media.
"The Internet is a fascinating and sometimes valuable tool. But when Matt Drudge sets a journalistic agenda, we are in trouble." Hunt said.
"I think reporters should always be skeptical and never be cynical, and that's a very thin line," he said.

Hunt said he still had hope that the new generation of reporters would solve the problems facing the industry of journalism.
He said that despite all the problems facing journalism, the nation is stronger than it has ever been. He cited the economy, the amount of scientific research and our influence over the way the world's people live as reasons for this increased strength.
Hunt joined the Journal as one of its New York reporters in 1965, transferred to the Boston bureau two years later and moved to Washington two years after that.
For the last 30 years he has worked in Washington writing about politics.
Hunt has also worked on several television shows, including; Washington Week in Review, CBS Morning News, and Meet the Press. He currently is on CNN's The Capital Gang and Egans, Novak, Hunt, & Shields.
Hunt said that he had enjoyed his stay at the University of Kansas, but that he thought his stay could have been made more pleasant by one thing.
"The only disappointment is that there is not a game in the Allen Fieldhouse this weekend," he said.

Homeless Lawrence man running for city office
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
CITY HALL

Paul Bryant decided to run for a seat on the Lawrence City Commission as he slept on the floor of an apartment that did not have heat or water. Bryant, a homeless, former KU graduate student, filed as a candidate Jan. 25. He has been campaigning via his Internet site, http://members.tripod.com/Paul4 Lawrence.
"It's a roof over your head," Bryant said, who lists his permanent address as 1100 Massachusetts St, the Douglas County Courthouse. "It keeps you alive. But seeing what's happened to a lot of people really triggered my desire to run for City Commission."
Bryant received a Bachelor of Science degree in computer science in 1992 from Grand Valley State University in Traverse City, Mich. He then moved to Lawrence and began working on his masters degree in planetarium sciences at the University of Kansas. Bryant said the planetarium sciences degree was eventually dissolved in 1995, leaving him with about $48,000 in student loans that he could not afford to pay.
A self-proclaimed "practical idealist," Bryant said he felt strongly that the needs and problems of the homeless were not heard by Lawrence city government.
"The main reason I'm qualified is because I've seen all of Lawrence, especially the homeless," Bryant said. "I've had people tell me to just live under the bridge. That's unacceptable. The homeless are the ones who need protection and the functions of government."
Jean Ann Pike, coordinator for the Lawrence Interdenominational Nutritional Kitchen, 9th and Vermont streets, sees Bryant weekly when he eats L.I.N.K.-sponsored meals.
"I think what he hopes to accomplish is reasonable," Pike said. "I feel that Lawrence has a very diverse group of people that we try to embrace. Paul is willing to represent a certain segment of our
people, and I think it would be good to have the lower-income population represented at the city level."
There are nine people running for three commission seats. The pool will be narrowed to six at the March 2 primary before the general election April 6. Bryant said he has been impressed by the other candidates. But whether Lawrence residents are ready to elect a commissioner who does not have a home remains to be seen.
"Anyone who runs for political office is going to be inexperienced the first time they run." Bryant said. "I think I'm intelligent and rational and educated. Realistically, the odds of me winning at face value are slim. I have no name recognition and no money. My budget for the entire campaign is $60. I hope that students will get involved and register to vote."
Bryant passes out business cards with his campaign slogan, "Because Lawrence is Our Home," and five issues he is concerned about, primarily the South Lawrence Trafficway debate.
Bryant's Web page contains biographical information, his stance on issues and photos of him work.
PAUL BRYANT'S GOALS
Resolve the South Lawrence Trafficway debate without disturbing the Haskell/Baker landlocks
the Hobart/Sydney terminal
Establish a fixed-route transportation system
- Establish a full-time, full-service homeless shelter and deal honestly with the problem of poverty
- Create initiatives for youth, seniors and minorities to help themselves, one another and the community.
Maintain and strengthen community infrastructure, including locally owned business
ing on his book "Credit Card and the American Debtor's Prison," which he plans to self-publish this year. Bryant keeps his computer in a storage unit and takes it out when he needs it.
On the Web site, Bryant invites questions and comments through his e-mail account: Paul4Lawrence@usa.net.
Bryant works part time at BASIC Cleaners, 4143 Pondera Dr., and is a regular columnist and photographer for the Kaw Valley Independent.

Classified staff charges Legislature with improving compensations
A significant amount of work at the University of Kansas is done by a group of employees who get little recognition. These people ensure that all facets of the University run smoothly so instructors and students can participate in a learning community.
Like so many University employees, they are underpaid. As a result, the University's infrastructure pays the price. The Kansas Legislature, which sets salaries for these workers, must pursue a plan to increase salaries and improve work environments.
Specifically, the needs of classified employees must be addressed. Although unclassified employees instructors and administrators often don't get the pay they deserve either, the other 1,600 University work
Cost of living, overtime pay and hiring issues should be examined, says Classified Senate.
ers have been ignored too long. Classified Senate, which represents these employees, has outlined a plan that would recognize these needs.
First, wages have remained stagnant while the cost of living has increased. Second, these employees increasingly have lost many of their rights to overtime pay. Lastly, as other workers retire, remaining workers are forced to handle much of the former employee responsibilities without increased wages.
To many classified workers who have
reached the top of the pay scale, the only raises will come from cost-of-living allotments. From zero to 1.5 percent, these allotments are not enough.
A 1994 state law took away holiday overtime pay for these employees. And the state only hires three employees for every four that retire.
If the Legislature wants to maintain the quality of Kansas' educational infrastructure, it must seriously consider Classified Senate's recommendations: Raise the cost-of-living allotment, bring back holiday overtime pay and hire accordingly for vacant positions. Otherwise, it is Kansas' universities that pay the price. These employees keep the University going. It's time the Legislature stopped short-changing them.

Pope not the only figure capable of godliness
I am writing in response to a column I read in the Kansin Feb. 3. I happen to agree with the Simmie Berroya's son that no one person can be closer to God than any other person. No, I'm not 19, nor am I Catholic or college educated. I am a student of life.
She says that the Pope is closer to God because he lives the Bible and church doctrine every day. Well, I have an uncle who is a Baptist minister, and I wonder if he is any less close to God then the Pope? I know that my uncle lives by the Bible and the church's doctrine every day, as does his wife. Does that make her any less close to God than the Pope?
Or how about the people in the building that I work in, we have Resident Assistants who live and teach the Bible every day. Are they any less close to God than the Pope? The building also has a maintenance man who is a minister. He works every day, but I know that he lives by the Bible every day. Does this make him any less close to God than the Pope?
I understand that the Pope is supposed to be the living symbol of the Catholic Church and that the church needs the Pope to lead it and its people, but to assume that he is closer to God than any other person on Earth is impudent.
Mother Teresa was another symbol of the Catholic church. She lived the church's doctrine every day and gave of herself every day. Was she any less close to God than to the Pope? I agree that people need other people to look up to, and the Pope is a great person to look up to, but so are Mother Teresa,
my uncle, my aunt, the RAs in my building and the maintenance man.
What about the people who give selflessly every day to see that people are fed, have clothes to wear, places to live and give of their lives because that is what they love to do? Are they any less a person to look up to?
I know that this letter is going to catch some flak, but that is OK. I wrote this letter to say that everyone who walks with grace in their lives and love in their hearts are as close to God.
An old pagan saying says, "In perfect love and in perfect trust." While almost impossible to live up to, it is possible to try to live that way every day.

Perspective
Dole Institute's funding serves higher education
The University Daily Kansan makes an important and cogent general point in its Feb. 3 editorial about financing for the Dole Institute for Public Services and Public Relief
icy. That is, the earmarking of federal funds for specific higher education projects is not a desirable policy, in comparison to the merit-based competitive grant process.
Most university presidents and virtually all policy analysts would agree, even though the competitive grant process certainly advantages so-called "prestige" institutions In October funding for the Dole Institute was included in a $600 billion omnibus budget package; the University did not lobby for this funding, which was added to the appropriations for the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education.
Burdett Loomis
Guest columnist
Subsequently, various legislators directed the Fund to spend its competitive-grant money on particular projects. This latter set of directives was especially unfortunate — a poor precedent for education policy.
But we live in an imperfect world. In its considered judgment, the U.S. Congress decided to honor the former Senate Republican floor leader, Robert J. Dole, with a grant of $5 million. Senator Pat Roberts and his staff were instrumental in obtaining these funds, and the University community should be grateful.
The Kansan editorial board labels this money as "tainted" and suggests that we decline the funding. Or, at the least, we should commit some of the funds to the elusive goal of "improving" post-secondary education.
Well, we're not looking this gift horse in the mouth — to do so would dishonor both Dole and Roberts. But the editorial board and the University community should be confident that — both directly and indirectly — the Robert J. Dole Institute will (and has already) improved the quality of post-secondary education — precisely the mission of the grant as articulated by the Fund for the Improvement of Post-Secondary Education and the Department of Education.
The Dole Institute has not yet received a cent of federal funding, but already it has;
cent or federal funding, but already it has ■ bolstered the internship programs in Washington and Topeka (more than 40 students enrolled this spring);
- held a major conference, attended by hundreds of students, on Most Favored Nation status for China;
worked to bring in two former members of Congress for visits to several KU undergraduate classes (February 16-18):
■ financed graduate research assistant-
ships:
■ planned a major conference (September 1999) on the 50th anniversary of NATO, which may include a Lied Center speech by NATO Secretary General Javier Solana.
The $6 million of federal funding will allow the Institute's archives staff to process the largest single collection of congressional papers in existence. These papers, along with photos and other artifacts, make up an invaluable resource that will serve KU students, professors and outside scholars for decades to come.
Moreover, once its distinctive West Campus building is complete, the Dole Institute will serve as a venue not only for its own events, but also for many other University seminars and symposia.
To date, as the editorial pointed out, the Institute has received $3 million in private funding and $3 million in state appropriations — virtually all of which is committed to the building, which will stand directly west of the Lied Center. Once the building is constructed, however, the Institute will require substantial funding so that it can fulfill its three functions: to serve as an archival resource, to promote public service activities and to further the understanding of domestic and international public policy issues. The University, in consultation with Dole, is committed to serving its students, its faculty, and the citizens of Kansas through its archival, public service and public policy activities.
Will the Institute contribute to the improvement of higher education? Without a doubt. Did the University and the Institute attack the federal grant-making process? Not at all. Rather, Congress chose to honor one of its most distinguished members with an appropriate gesture. We happen to be the fortunate recipient of that generous gesture. It is the University's responsibility to employ the funds to offer valuable programming for years, even generations, to come. Through dozens of opportunities offered to KU students and faculty
- and other Kansas citizens - the Dole Institute will pay dividends on the $6 million investment well into the 21st century.

Morning calm disrupted by door-to-door religion
If I recall correctly, it was a rather tranquil Sunday morning. Unable to sleep, I wandered into the main room of my apartment and fell on the couch. Through
the missing teeth of the Venetian blinds, I could see the rising sun reflect off the frost on the early morning grass, a sight I would have considered beautiful had it not been so blinding.
I sat there for a while, deciding between television or radio, frosted cereal or instant breakfast, moving or remaining comatose on the couch. Soon enough, the decision was made for me

as an even-paced knocking sound began emanating through the front door.
Assuming that some person on the other side of the door caused the sound, rather than some freaky paranormal occurrence, I pulled myself from the three-foot divot in the center of the couch and moved to answer the door.
While making the journey across the multi-colored stains permanently caked in the carpet, I began to wonder who it was that could be coming by so early on a Sunday morning, knowing that none of my friends were likely candidates for consciousness any time before noon.
I thought for a moment about the friendly student who had solicited me a week earlier. He seemed like a nice enough chap, smiling wide and telling me of the many opportunities available to him should he be entrepreneurial enough. Why, if I would only subscribe to a magazine or two, he could go to Europe.
Of course, I wouldn't mind a trip to Europe myself, and I would rather subscribe to a magazine that sent me there, so I politely explained to him that I couldn't read. Yes, I thought of him on the way to the door, along with my other visitors the past week — the foreign exchange student selling paintings and the blond girl running for some kind of office.
Looking through the peep hole, I saw that none of these people were waiting to see
me. Rather, two pleasantly attired elderly people smiled at the door. Being in the confused state that always clouds my head in the early hours of the day, I immediately opened the door and said a friendly "Hello."
I assume she meant going to a church, so I explained that I did not attend a specific church but chose to speak with God from such places as the bed, my car and the bathroom, usually promising not to eat any more spicy food, or drink a particular drink or talk to a certain female person ever again.
Jesus probably would have the cereal, I thought to myself.
"Do you worship anywhere?" the lady asked me.
Oh well, I figured it was too late to change the circumstances and, besides, I felt quite comfortable. So, I asked if I could help out these kind strangers. The lady mentioned something about the church they were from, and her partner quickly handed me a pamphlet. "What Would Jesus Do," I think it said.
"So, you do believe in God, then?"
I guess I should mention that I hadn't dressed since waking up and wandering into the living room, and apparently my Bugs Bunny boxer shorts and pale-white chest took the couple by surprise. The lady gasped, and the man cleared his throat while hastily averting his eyes away.
"Yes, of course."
"You should stop by our congregation sometime," the man suggested.
"God and I have a deal worked out," I told them. "I don't answer the door in the morning, and he leaves me alone. As you can see, I didn't come through with my part of the bargain, and now he's punishing me."
With that statement, the couple got very offended and said some things that I didn't believe were particularly Christian.
Oh well, I felt pretty good about my situation in life and suggested that they might want to save souls a little later in the day. For the time being, I needed to get some cereal and read about how Jesus would handle early-morning solicitations.

New pharmacy program to upgrade current standards
By Jennifer Roush Kansan staff writer
A new academic program at the University of Kansas is helping pharmacists improve their skills without losing valuable time on the job.
KU' s Nontraditional Pharm.D. program offers practicing pharmacists the opportunity to upgrade their skills while remaining a part of the work force. Pharm.D. is the term for a Doctor of pharmacy degree.
The American Council on Pharmaceutical Education will not offer a bachelor's of science degree after 2002, Ron Ragan, the program's director, said.
Ragan said the new program would allow adult students to earn the Pharm.D. part-time.
The program also would be useful in helping pharmacists become more skilled in their profession.
"We're getting more into educating patients about their medications, instead of just counting and sorting pills," Ragan said. "The professional pharmacy is moving more toward an information industry."
The school of pharmacy's Nontraditional Pharm.D. program will begin classes Feb. 23.
The academic portion of the program will be conducted mostly on the Internet. In addition to online and videotape classes, there also will be in-classroom sessions.
Course content for the program will be on a computer at the Edwards Campus, and interested students must enroll there.
Jeremy Matchett, assistant dean of school pharmacy, said the only extra cost to students using this program would be the Regents Center fee.
"We're really glad that we were able to get this program going," Ragan said. "We like to be able to give something back to the community by helping to improve pharmacists' skills."
Lippincott renovation causes delays opens lab space for students, faculty
By Lori O'Toole Special to the Kansan
The basement of Lippincott Hall soon will be a new place for researchers at the University to experiment.
Facilities and Operations, in connection with the Crumbling Classrooms project, is converting space in the building's basement into a laboratory this spring. The new lab will make room in another building for the construction of an enclosed external stairway and an outside exit.
Mike Richardson, facilities operations director, said the laboratory project should be completed by the end of February.
Michael Crawford, professor of anthropology, will be moving to Lippincott from his lab in Twente Hall that he has had since 1974.
"I was actually there before the School of Social Welfare," he said.
Crawford said that he does not mind the move and that the wait for the new lab was worth it, despite the inconveniences.
"The laboratory in Lippincott will be a big improvement and we'll be able to do more advanced DNA research." Crawford said.
The final phase of Lippincott's remodeling, the conversion of basement space into offices began last December and was completed during winter break.
The total Lippincott project, including the lab and new offices, will cost more than $49,000 and is financed by the Office of the Provost.
"The Provost's office has been very interested in the lab project so the Crumbling Classrooms project can begin." Richardson said.
Richardson said shipment delays on equipment, such as fume hoods, have slowed down the lab project construction.
Although Crawford has been able to use his new offices in Lippincott while he waits for the lab to be completed, the construction also has slowed his activities.
"I don't like to lose a month's work, but if the cost of getting better facilities means wasting one's time, that's fine," he said.
Crawford also works with graduate students conducting dissertation research. He said those students were inconvenienced the most.
Joe McComb, a Lawrence graduate student who is working on a DNA fingerprint analysis dissertation, also said that working under a deadline had added pressure to the situation.
"It's been a bit of a hassle mainly because we've had to stop research several times," said McComb. "It's hard to do science when you keep starting and stopping."

KU student opens Frat House
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
It's not unusual to see a KU student working behind the cash register at a Lawrence store, but most don't get to take the money from the cash register and put it into their bank accounts.
J. C. Chandler, Atlanta junior, works the counter, orders the merchandise and pays the bills for the allgreek merchandise store, The Frat House. He also co-owns it.
"I was complaining that I didn't have enough Greek stuff, and we started to get serious about starting the store," said Chandler, a member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity.
Chandler, along with girlfriend Alison Edwards, a 23-year old Lawrence resident, opened the store last December.
The Frat House, 701 W. Ninth St., sells various types of greek apparel and accessories, including T-shirts, key chains, mugs, frames and paddles. All of the University's greek organizations are represented at the
Chandler said it was a three-month process to turn the idea into reality. He said the KU Small Business Development Center, a branch of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, helped him and Edwards write a business plan and comply with paper work requirements and sales tax registration before they opened the store.
After all of Lawrence's banks denied them, Edwards and Chandler were approved by a national organization and obtained the funding to start the business.
"We had to go through loan denial after loan denial." Edwards said.
Edwards said business at The Frat House was good.

"Week by week it picks up more," Edwards said.
Chandler said he thought that the store appealed to students because they were comfortable dealing with people who were young and greek.
"We know what kind of budgets students have, so our prices are compatible with students' pocketbooks," Chandler said.
The 21-year-old entrepreneur said he did not think he was any different than his peers, who initially did not think that he was serious about opening the store.
"I'm an average student. I miss class. I do homework like everyone else," he said. "I'm just ambitious, too."
Other Lawrence businesses that sell greek merchandise have had to respond to the new business.
"They are a new competitor." said

Chicago comedians blow into Lawrence
By Derek Prater
Special to the Kansan
A touring ensemble from the sketch-comedy troupe that produced such talents as John Belushi and Dan Akryrod will attempt to tickle local funnybones at an upcoming show.
The six-member ensemble will perform "The Best of The Second City," said Beth Kligerman, administrative director of the resident and touring companies.
The Second City National Touring Company will perform its brand of political and social satire 8 p.m. today at Liberty Hall.

"The national touring shows are a series of
Bill Pile, promoter for Avalanche Productions, which is responsible for booking The Second City, said that although he had never seen the show, he thought that it was similar to Saturday Night Live.
"It's really quality entertainment." Pile said. "I'm personally really excited about it. My personal interest pushed me to bring the show here."
In addition to resident companies in Chicago, Toronto and Detroit, The Second City has three national touring ensembles that travel yearround. These casts change to keep the shows lively and丰满, Kligerman said.
Pile said he thought the significant number of
Chicago-area residents at the University of Kansas would take interest in the show.
Dan Walsh, Chicago sophomore, said he had seen three Second City shows in Chicago and would recommend the show to anyone who enjoys a little outrageousness.
"It's like Saturday Night Live, but crazier because they're not on TV." Walsh said.
The Second City's first incarnation began in the mid-1950s when a group of University of Chicago students formed the Compass Players.
In 1959, the actor-writers found a permanent home in a laundry and renamed themselves.
Tickets for the show cost $14.50 and $12.50 for students with a KUID.

Policy attacks terrorism
United States asserts right to bomb nations that shield terrorists
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration now says that the right to bomb government buildings in nations that provide sanctuary to international terrorists is a significant escalation of U.S. attempts to thwart terrorism.
"We may not just go in a strike against a terrorist facility; we may choose to retaliate against the facilities of the host country, if that host country is a knowing, cooperative sanctuary," said Richard Clarke, President Clinton's coordinator for counterterrorism.
Clarke described the policy that marks a departure from the tactics employed last August, when U.S. cruise missiles struck at alleged terrorist
strongholds in Afghanistan and Sudan.
Now the administration says it could broaden such an attack to include government buildings and assets in nations that knowingly harbor terrorists.
Had this tactic been employed in the Aug. 20 strikes, the United States might have, for example, targeted Sudan's government buildings or the Afghan Taliban headquarters.
In fact, the scores of cruise missiles used in that strike were targeted carefully to avoid government buildings and were aimed at the alleged terrorist assets of Osama bin Laden.
Administration officials said that the missile strikes were not aimed at the governments of Sudan and Afghanistan.
Officials caution that a president seeking to use force against a terrorist sanctuary government would face a high burden to show that the target government willingly tolerated a terrorist presence. The added risk
of collateral damage or excessive casualties would add political and moral complications.
Clarke's comments appear to remove the distinction between cases where a nation actively involved in terrorism is struck, such as Iraq or Libya, and nations that merely allow terrorists to operate within their borders.
David Tucker, author of a classified report on terrorism while at the Pentagon under Presidents Bush and Clinton, said the administration's policy on terrorist sanctuaries has roots in international law on an enemy that seeks sanctuary in a neutral country.
This argument was used to justify the U.S. invasion of Cambodia in 1970. During the 1980s, the Reagan administration warned East Germany and other Soviet Bloc countries that they would be held responsible for harboring members of the Abu Nidal terrorist organization, Tucker said.
Kosovo could remain province
The Associated Press
RAMBOUILLET, France — Serb officials and Kosovo Albanians agreed on principles that would keep the embattled province inside Yugoslavia for at least three more years as they met separately Sunday with international mediators at a French chateau.
After Saturday's ceremonial opening of the peace talks, the mediators presented Kosovo's warring factions with a plan worked out by the six-nation Contact Group. The agreement contains 10 basic principles, including keeping what remains of Yugoslavia intact.
That means Kosovo's ethnic Albanians have to give up their demand for independence during a three-year interim period. Both a Serb negotiator and a Western mediator said all sides had accepted those principles.
"It's a good step forward," a Western mediator said. Still, he added that the tough part would be working out just how broad the Kosovo autonomy would be.
The peace negotiations are being held in seclusion at the official summer home of French presidents, and it was not possible to confirm the Albanian acceptance directly.
Hard-line Kosovo Liberation Army guerrillas have said they never would accept anything short of independence for Kosovo, a province in Serbia, the main republic in Yugoslavia. The province is 90 percent ethnic Albanian.
The two sides were driven to the negotiating table by threat of NATO air strikes against Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic and tough measures against the KLA to halt its arms supplies and financing.
The Contact Group — made up of the United States, Russia, France, Britain, Germany and Italy — devised the framework agreement based on the work of U.S. mediator Christopher Hill.
The negotiating teams were not meeting face-to-face. Instead, international mediators were shuttling between two floors of the chateau. 30 miles south of Paris.

Patrolling the streets
A night with KU Public Safety Officers
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
More than seven passengers spilled out of the car that KU Public Safety Officer Robert Linzer stopped at 1:50 a.m. Saturday in the parking lot of Naismith Hall.
A
A crowd instantly gathered in the doorway to see what was going on. For the 18-year-old Overland Park resident who had been driving the car, the party was over.
The car turned left onto 18th Street and Linzer followed. He turned on his lights as the car turned right into the Naismith Hall parking lot.
Officer Linzer had been driving south on Naismith Drive when he noticed a car in front of him swerve. Immediately he hit a button above his rear-view mirror, turning on a video recorder in a locked box in his truck.
To execute the second test, the driver was supposed to walk nine heel-to-toe steps in a straight line while counting the steps aloud.
His 10 years of law enforcement experience already had given him strong reason to suspect that the driver had been drinking; the man's driving was erratic, there was the smell of alcohol on his breath and his eyes were bloodshot.
Linzer explained the test clearly and concisely to the driver. Ambiguity in test instructions could get a charge
Linzer approached the car and leaned over to explain to the driver why he had stopped him. He asked for the driver's license and returned to the patrol car.
But these factors alone do not warrant an arrest for Operating Under the Influence.
For the first test, the driver was asked to follow the tip of a pen with his eyes. Linzer said that lack of smooth pursuit or jerky eyeball movements were a symptom of intoxication.
Linzer told the driver to get out of the car and he began to administer the first of five tests that would determine whether the driver was drunk.
overturned in court.

He asked the driver whether he understood the directions and whether he had any medical condition that would affect his performance. The driver said he had a twitch.
The driver took nine steps and then asked if he was supposed to take nine or ten steps. Linzer told him to do as he had been instructed. The driver took ten steps.
Because each test has a certain point value, the inability to remember test instructions cost the driver one point.
Next was the one-leg stand. The driver must stand with one foot
lifted off the ground and count aloud. The driver put his foot down twice during this test.
For the fourth test, the driver was asked to say the alphabet aloud — without singing. The driver skipped the letter "p."
Last was the Preliminary Box Test. The test gives a blood alcohol content reading, but it is not a measurement that could be used in court as evidence. The official reading will come from a more sophisticated piece of equipment called an intoxilizer that is at the jail.
At this point, the driver asked Linzer about his rights. Under Kansas law, a person can lose driving privileges for up to one year for refusing to submit to an alcohol or drug test. The driver admitted he had been drinking
and he said he knew he would flunk the test.
Nonetheless, Linzer asked him to do the test.
The PBT calculated the driver's blood alcohol content as .111. The legal limit for a person under 21 is .02. For those 21 and over, the limit is .08.
At 2:04 a.m. the driver was placed under arrest. With a look of stunned resignation, the driver silently submitted to being placed in handcuffs.
By now, the group that has been standing at the building's door — along with the passengers — had left.
An officer found one of the driver's friends to move the car.
When he arrived to jail at 3:12 a.m., the intoxilizer showed that his blood alcohol content
PENALTIES FOR DRIVING UNDER THE INFLUENCE
was actually .099.
■ First conviction is a misdemeanor. The maximum penalty is six months in jail or 100 hours of public service; a $500 fine; required completion of an alcohol education program; and suspended drivers license for 30 days.
■ Second conviction is a misdemeanor. The maximum penalty is one year in jail; a $1,000 fine; required completion of an alcohol treatment program; and suspended drivers license for one year.
Third conviction is a felony. The maximum penalty is one year in prison; or $2,500 fine; required completion of an alcohol treatment program; and suspended drivers license for one year.
Although most drivers that KU public safety officers pull over are not intoxicated, a few are. Linzer said that there were between two and four OUIs on an average weekend for the KU Public Safety Office.
For Linzer, this was the eighth person he had pulled over since his shift began at 10:30 p.m.
With the others, Linzer determined within a brief interaction that they were sober and sent them on their way with a polite "Have a nice night."
■ Refusal to submit to alcohol or drug testing can result in a suspended driver's license for one year.
When the driver from Over-
land Park got behind the wheel
early Saturday morning, he
became one of those few.
Most people who receive OUIs will not spend a long time in jail if they do not have a previous record. Once the officer has finished the paperwork, they can leave as soon as they find a sober ride home and either $75 to pay a bondsman or $500 in cash.
The driver Linzer brought in was released at 5 a.m.
In about two weeks, he will appear in court. If he has no previous record, he could get deferred adjudication and — if he stays out of trouble — the OUI charge will not go on his permanent record.
Tobogganers race just for thrill of it
CAMDEN, Maine — The Hopeless Neurotics, Fat Bloated Idiots and Kevinian's Alternative are cheerfully ready to risk their necks with a plunge down an ice-coated, treelined, mountainside racetrack.
The ninth annual U.S. Toboggan Championships took place this weekend.
Most of the 300 teams were from Maine, but they were joined by some entrants from such tobboganning hot spots as Louisiana, Texas and Florida.
Oddities
But test anyone take this winter spectacle seriously, the people at Camden Snow Bowl attest that it is purely for fun.
For some, the main challenge Saturday was seeing how badly they could do.
Derek Pierce, 32, of Portland, said he was proud that his Team Wurst tobbogans came in dead last in the marquee four-person event.
Team Wurst, a group of 30-sometimes with longstanding school and social ties, includes such squads as "The Way We Wurst," "Wurstafarians" and "Wurst Push From The Chute Operator."
How did they manage that? "A combination of lack of skills, poor equipment and lack of equipment," Pierce said.
A group from Gritty McDuff's bar in Portland feigned a more serious commitment to the competition.
"This is extreme toboggan," said five-year race veteran Richard Pfefer, as he sipped a beer in one of the scattering of tailgate parties.
There was hardly a snowflake in sight along the course, but the competition uses a wooden chute, just wide enough for a toboggan, that is coated with ice.
The breakneck joyride starts when an operator yanks a lever to release the tobogganes on their plunge.

The race is helps to raise money for the nonprofit, municipally owned ski area on 1,300-foot Ragged Mountain, unique in the East because its trails offer views of the ocean.
Some teams dress up for the occasion, including the Celestial Sisters garbed as nuns and the Four Elmos wearing red outfits to look like the Sesame Street character.
Some of the competitors were in their 80s. There also were children's teams, with names like Three Buoys and a Gull, inspired by the nearby harbor.
At first, the event drew a few dozen or so teams, "but it kind of grew on its own" into an annual spectacle, said Beth MacDonald, who helps organize the event.
Law may require notices on fur coats
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Fur coats in the fancy shops on Rodeo Drive may soon come with a warning label with grusome details of how the fur's original wearers — the animals

"I don't want our police officers going to stores and checking the linings of coats," Bronte said. "We don't need a pelt pose here."
A group called Beverly Hills Consumers for Informed Choices collected the signatures of more than 3,300 registered voters, forcing the council to put the measure on the ballot. Supporters believe it would be the first fur warning of its kind in the country.
The group says most furriers tell buyers that the animals are killed by injection, which is not always the case.
The proposed law does not take into account that there are no laws regulating the killing of animals for their fur, said Teresa Platt, executive director of Fur Commission USA, an association representing mink and狐农 farmers.
"Fur is purely a status symbol, and more and more it is a symbol of cruelty," he said. "Beverly Hills has a warm climate. The only reason why people would want to wear fur is for the status."
"For mink, the preferred method is gas, and for fox it's injection, but occasionally it is something different." she said.

Boeing 727 is man's dream home
"It's awesome, it's spine-tingling." Campbell said, as the jet was towed up the narrow asphalt path, its blue and white fuselage a startling disruption to the backdrop of fog-covered hills and quiet farms. "It's fascinating how wonderful that marriage is: a natural environment and slick, cool, high technology."
The plane, pulled by a semi-truck rig at a top speed of 4 mph, arrived about 6:30 a.m. at the Laurel Valley general store, where workers waited for dawn to break before ascending the winding road leading to Paul and Chris Denfeld's 500-acre walnut and hazelnut groves.
LAUREL, Ore. — Transporting Bruce Campbell's new home from the airport to the countryside was a cinch. Getting it up the driveway was another matter.
The 49-year-old electrical engineer who bought a used Boeing 727 to turn into a bachelor apartment saw the jet make an incredible journey Saturday — from a muddy field near the Hillsboro airport to the doorstep of his neighbor's property about 12 miles south.
Dozens of onlookers, many with bleary-eyed children, stood in the rain to watch the 127-foot-long aircraft negotiate the streets of downtown Hillsboro about 3:30 a.m.
But the rest of the asphalt driveway was too thin to support the weight of the 32-ton aircraft, and the idea of crossing over a shallow ditch and winching the plane about 400 feet up a muddy side road seemed impossible.
The plan involved towing the fuselage, resting on wheeled dolls, into a gravel-strewn gully behind the Denefels' barn, where it would remain until spring, when Campbell could figure out a way to get it up the steep slope to his 10-acre parcel.

But first it had to be moved, a complex undertaking that will end up costing Campbell about $25,000. For months, he worked to obtain the permits needed to effectively bring the city to a standstill for a few hours.
Campbell, who had dreamed of living inside a jetliner since childhood, got his wish last Halloween when the 727 he bought for $100,000 was decommissioned by Greece's Olympic Airways and flown to Hillsborough, a town of about 45,000 west of Portland. Campbell will outfit the plane with a bedroom, bathroom and workshop, and possibly a deck. He'll also re-attach the wings then.
Hotline screens moods of Boston workers
About 20 exhausted workers went home and the plane, unable to taxi, stayed put on the driveway. They were trying again Sunday afternoon, and hoped to complete the process by nightfall.
The city has installed a "mood meter," an automated phone system that screens for depression. Callers listen to recorded descriptions of how they feel and are asked how often they feel that way.
BOSTON — For city workers feeling blue, help may be a phone call away. They just should not expect a human on the other end of the line.
Description range from "I get tired for no reason" to "I feel others would be better off if I were dead." When callers punch the corresponding digits, they hear a recorded diagnosis that urges severe cases to get counsellors.

Officials said the hotline is especially valuable for the city's 18,000 workers, often blamed for the Boston's malades. The hotline, Installed in October, has received 155 calls.

Commentary
Loving loathing the NBA
Admit it. There's a small part of you that that's not as bitter about the NBA lockout now that the season is finally under wav.
I was one of the masses, 100 percent apathetic about whether there was an NBA season. I didn't care about the negotiations, about who was going to
get what percent of a $2 billion check. Auto racing highlights used to be the only SportsCenter subject that could drive me to flip the channel, but this winter the lockout was added to that list.
1980
Mellinger is an Lawrence junior in journalism.
And as long as it's exciting, as long as it holds your attention, you'll watch. I know I will.
So admit you. You'll stop flipping channels when you see an NBA game on. You might even make plans to have dinner in front of the TV when Raef LaFrentz's Denver Nuggets or Paul Pierce's Boston Celtics are on TNT.
Sam Mellinger sports@ansan.com
But now it's all over. And it's hot
ter. Some of the NBA's biggest downfalls are nonexistent this season.
Michael Jordan was great to watch, but his dominance took away from not actually knowing how the season was going to end. And it was also annoying to listen to Chicago natives every spring. But with Jordan's retirement, there is no clear-cut favorite to succeed the Bulls. New York, Indiana, New Jersey and Miami seem to be the top teams in the East, and you could make a good argument for Utah, San Antonio, Houston, Seattle, Phoenix, Minnesota or the Lakers to win the West.
Heck, nobody ever paid much attention to the pros before about this time of year anyway, so the lockout just saved us all some trouble. And if the opening weekend is any indication, basketball fans have forgiven the NBA for its temporary stupidity.
Another turn-off to the NBA was the ridiculous 82-game schedule. This created extra revenue to fatten the league's pockets, but it also created a drawn-out season that left many fans wondering how much effort the players showed on the court. But with the lockout shaving more than 30 games off the schedule, every game counts.
I conducted a highly scientific study last night to figure out whether the fans were back, and my research indicates they are. I checked out about 10 box scores from this weekend, and I could find just one that listed the attendance at less than 17,000.
OK, so it wasn't so scientific. In defense against alienating the fans, many teams have cut ticket prices significantly and some have even let fans in for free. That surely added to the attendance numbers. But if fans were as apathetic about the BFA as all those ridiculous surveys indicated during the lockout, you couldn't pay 20,143 people to watch the Orlando Magic play the Philadelphia 76ers Saturday.
The only game where attendance wasn't up to par was on opening night, when 7,689 watched Phoenix at the Los Angeles Clippers. That probably has more to do with the Clippers' being the toilet paper of the NBA than it does the lockout.
Much like the bumper sticker, lock-outs happen. The NFL had one in 1982
one year after Major League Baseball ball had one — but the fans of both sports came back. Baseball had another one in 1994 — it even canceled the World Series — but all it took was a friendly home-run derby to cure that.
Sports fans are easy to please. Give them a winner, or even an entertaining product, and they will pay money to watch. That's why the Knicks played in front of a sellout crowd at Madison Square Garden for the 264th straight game yesterday.
'Hawks hold off Buffs' charge
Robertson scores career high while committing no turnovers
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
BOULDER, Colo. — For the second time in nine days, the Kansas Jayhawks denied Colorado a come-from-behind win and defeated the Buffaloes 86-83 yesterday.
Colorado, which trailed by as many as 17 points in the second half, trimmed the Kansas lead to three, 83-80, when Colorado's Kenny Price hit his sixth three-pointer of the game with 32 seconds remaining.
"I didn't think we were going to get Price to miss one of those down the stretch," Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "He got up and made some big-time shots for them."
Kansas guard Ryan Robertson did the same for the Jayhawks, scoring a careerhigh 23 points, including 10 of 12 from the free-throw line.
"You've got to mention Ryan Robertson." Williams said, "Ten of 12 free throws, five of six from the floor, 23 points, two assists, no turnovers. That's a pretty good day."
The 6-foot-4 senior scored the Jayhawks' first five points as neither team could take more than a three-point lead in the game's first 12 minutes.

the first half, Kansas guard Jeff Boschese came alive. The freshman hit two three-point baskets and the freshman the Jayhawks on an 8-0 run that pushed the score to 30-22.
The Jayhawks went into intermission with a 40-35 lead.
Kansas carried the momentum into the second half and, following a dunk by Colorado's Will Smith, went on a 15-1 run. Center Eric Chenowith scored six points in the run that stretched the Kansas lead to 17 points, its biggest lead of the game, at 55-38.
Robertson said that even though the Jayhawks had taken such a large lead, he never counted out the Buffaloes.
"It never got to be a blowout atmosphere," Robertson said. "The crowd got into it a little bit and it was back and forth."
With the Jayhawks up 57-43, the two teams engaged in a free-throw shooting contest as 16 foul shots were taken in the next five minutes. Kansas forward Kenny Gregory scored with 7:44 to go for the first Kansas field goal since the 12:53 mark.
Colorado looked to center Jamahl Mosley for points from the floor, and he responded by scoring nine straight for the Buffaloes.
The Jayhawks countered by going into a two-three zone, but the Buffaloes went on a 13-4 run and closed the lead to 71-65. The run was fueled by two three-pointers from Price and one from Walls.
"Kenny Price and Jaquay Walls made some big baskets for them." Williams said.
The Jayhawks made 19 of 28 free throws in the second half and held off Colorado for their 20th straight win against the Buffalooes.
Kansas (6-16 overall and 8-2 in the Big 12) was bolstered by some much-needed bench play after the Jayhawks got in foul trouble. Fifty-two fouls were called on both teams, and four players, including Kansas' Jeff Carey, fouled out.
Kansas reserves totaled 23 points, and Carey pulled down a career-high 12 rebounds in just 12 minutes of play.
"I was really happy with the way our bench played today," Williams said.
One player who was not on the bench was Lester Earl, who did not make the trip because of a bad ankle.
The Jayhawks' next game is against Nebraska Wednesday night in Lawrence.

Colombia, Mo. — It was Nakia Sanford's last game at the Hearnes Center, so she decided to go out with a bang.
The 6-foot-4 center scored a game-high 16 points and grabbed six rebounds, leading Kansas past border-rival Missouri in a 48-37 defensive struggle yesterday.
Sanford said she remembered losing at Missouri her freshman year and was determined not to let it happen in her final season.
The victory pushed the 22nd-ranked Jayhawks' winning streak to five games.
"This is my last time playing on this court, and I'm so glad I get to go out with a win," she said.
Kansas' defense was the deciding factor in yet another game for the Jayhawks. Missouri shot 30 percent from the floor, and its 37 points marked the program's lowest scoring output since it managed only 33 points against Grand View College in 1974.
"You have to credit their defense for our lack of scoring," said Missouri coach Cindy Stein. "They force you to take quick shots. And it's hard to get a mismatch when they switch on picks because they're so much bigger than we are."
On the other hand, the Jayhawks (18-6,
8-3) found a mismatch.
Missouri forward Julie Helm, the Big 12 Conference's fifth-leading scorer with 18.8 points an outing, was limited to 10 points on 4 of 10 shooting because of another strong defensive performance from junior Lynn Pride. As she has done in several games of late, coach Marian Washington neutralized the opponents' best outside scorer with the taller, more athletic Pride.

Tensions run high at Coors Center
By Marc Sheforgen
Kansan associate sports editor
BOULDER, Colo. — The tension at Colorado's Coors Event Center yesterday was at least as high as the arena's elevation.
Both Kansas and Colorado had engaged in a war of words through the media since their last meeting Jan. 3, and yesterday each squad looked determined to back up what it said.
"It was very emotional out there," said Kansas guard Jeff Boschee. "We heard all of the hype in the paper. Coach gave us a few quotes from them from their last game. It was extra motivation."
The game warmed up for about 16 minutes before reaching its boiling point.
No technical fouls were called.
With 6:03 remaining in the first half, Colorado guard Jaquay Walls was called for charging after running into Kansas' Ryan Robertson. Walls stood over the fallen Robertson and complained to officials, Boschez ran to help Robertson up and tried to move Walls away from his teammate. Walls responded by putting a finger in Boschez's face, and Kansas coach Roy Williams ran onto the floor to separate the players.
'He (Walls) just kind of got
frustrated and he threw a back hand and poked me in the eve. "Boschce said."
During the confrontation, Kansas forward Kenny Gregory and Colorado forward Jamahl Mosley stood face to face and exchanged words.
"It was just a little trash talking," Gregory said. "Tad to stand up for my teammate, basically."
The Colorado players were not available for postgame comments.
The game continued to be very physical and trash talking remained prevalent. Fifty-two fouls were called in the game and many of those hacks resulted in a player being knocked to the floor. Three Colorado players and one Kansas player — Jeff Carey — fouled out.
Colorado coach Ricardo Patton agreed that his team played aggressively, but said he did not encourage the squabbles.
"I just want us to come out hard," Patton said. "I don't ever want physical confrontation. The game's physical."
Kansas forward T.J. Pugh said the pregame and on-the-court trash talking made yesterday's 86-80 Kansas victory even more satisfying.
"You never want anyone to talk bad about you." Pugh said. "Especially when you beat them."

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 8).
Your assignment for this year is to learn how to handle authority figures. You're full of good ideas in February, but subservience is difficult then. That will be easier in March. A lesson to be learned through experience is scheduled for April or early May. You could find the partner of your dreams in August, and the career you've been looking for in November. A friendship undergoes transformation in December, and by next January, the pieces all start fitting together again.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Hang on to your money today. You'll want to spend it on something fun, like going skiing. You might even decide to liquidate your assets and live on the slopes forever.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Go along with a partner's whim today, especially if it has to do with your home, family or a household item. Real estate also is an adventure to get into only with your partner's support.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
While you think you're doing a great job, you actually could be upsetting someone else. Just to be safe, keep checking to make sure you're on the right track What you're really asking is whether you're doing what the other person wants.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 6.
This could be a rough day for some people, but it'll be neat for you. You've got a grand trine in water signs. You can't look out in the sky and see it, but we know that it's there.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6.
The sun is in Aquarius and the moon is in Scorpio. If you're stuck with a problem at home, maybe what you're missing is advice from a person who's job it is to save money, or bring it in.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Winter August 14.
You may find it difficult to think today. You have a tendency to ponder, ponder and strategize, and that's important right now. If you don't get anything else done today except setting up your schedule for next month, you'll still be money ahead.
Scarpio (Oct, 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Money is your focus today, and you might as well get aggressive about it. Are you being paid what you're worth? If you're not, it's nobody's fault but your own. You need to raise your rates, up your prices or change jobs.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
You're strong, determined, energetic, good look ing, and you're running into a problem. It looks like an intellectual type is giving you a world of grief.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
Something you're trying to accomplish is not getting through, as if the other person simply isn't listening.
Perhaps you're not communicating effectively. One of the most important aspects of communication, of course, is listening.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Capiton (Dec. 22-Jan. 17). Today is a day
Looks like what you and your committee want is not
available now. Apparently it'll take a little more
planning, a little more research and possibly a few more
fund-raisers. Don't despair, necessity is the mother of
invention.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
An older person wants to order around. That’s ridiculous, of course. You know everything, but this other person doesn't seem to care. He or she just wants the power. Once you understand that, the situation will be easier to deal with.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6.
C
You're so idealistic that sometimes it's difficult to pick one idea and stick with it. It's easier to focus today, and as you do that, you may discover there are problems to overcome between where you are and where you want to go.

Judge sentences Tyson to one-year term
He hod heard about the fragile family man who likes helping his community and the volatile and angry monster who could snap at any moment.
ROCKVILLE, Md. — Before sending Mike Tyson back to jail, Judge Stephen Johnson discussed the two sides of the
In the end, the judge decided it wasn't possible to tell which Tyson would be walking the streets of a community at any given moment. He gave the 32-year-old fighter one year behind bars for assaulting two motorists, a sentence that jeopardizes the career of one of boxing's greatest heavyweights.
Johnson called it the incident "a tragic example of potentially lethal road rage." Tyson's lawyers, through a series of witnesses, portrayed it as the act of a man under stress because of mounting debts and the revocation of his boxing license.
The standing-room-only crowd in the courtroom groaned in surprise when Johnson announced the sentence. Tyson slumped, but barely. His wife, Monica, was in tears. She tried to get to him, but couldn't push her way through a crowd of bailiffs.
"Witnesses say he is kind, caring and thoughtful," Johnson said. "Unfortunately, this court cannot look into the defendant's mind. ... He repeatedly speaks and acts compulsively and violently."
"I think this was clearly a case of making an example of Michael one more time," said Michael Steele, Monica Tyson's brother. "The prosecution in this case doggedly pursued this. He wanted to put one in his column — 'I got a celebrity, I'm making a point."
"He felt like he couldn't provide for us," testified Monica Tyson, fighting back tears. "My husband is a good, kind person. He's got his life together, and he's doing the right things."
Tyson kicked one motorist and punched another after a minor three-car accident in Gaithersburg, Md., on Aug. 31. In December, Tyson pleaded no contest to two counts of second-degree assault — meaning he neither protested the charges nor admitted guilt.

Women win, men defeated
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
T-shirts went flying into the stands Saturday at Robinson Natatorium.
The Kansas swimming and diving team defeated Iowa State 272.5-258.5, winning a total of 20 events and sending a Kansas swimming and diving t-shirt into the crowd for all 20 victories.
The women's team won its last conference meet 173-115, but the men were defeated 143-.5-99.5 without All-American Tyler Painter.
The absence of Painter, ranked 14th in the world in the 1500-meter freestyle, had an extreme impact on the number of points scored for the men's side. Painter, who consistently scored at least 18 points at each meet, was in the stands rather than in the pool.
Kansas coach Gary Kempf would not reveal specifically why Painter was not swimming but said Painter had been suspended.
"Tyler is serving a suspension from the team," Kempf said. "It's a personal deal between me and Tyler."
Kempf said he did not know
whether Painter would return.
Two days before the meet, with or without Painter, Kemp said he expected the men's team to face a challenge in winning the meet.
"I expect a dog fight." Kempf said Thursday about the men's team.
But the men fell short.
"I'm real disappointed on the men's side." Kempf said. "We did not start out like we should have. You can't do that and win."
The men started out losing the 400-meter medley relay by less than a second and continued to miss victory by fractions of a second in the 50-meter freestyle, 200-meter individual medley, 100-meter freestyle and 400-meter freestyle relay.
"We lost some close races," said sophomore Will Bernhardt, winner of the 200-meter backstroke. "I think they were just a sharper team today."
Nevertheless, Kempf said the men's poor performance was partly his own fault.
"I didn't do a good job preparing them mentally," Kempf said. "Physically, they're there, but not mentally."
But Bernhardt said he thought each individual swimmer was accountable for his own mental preparation.
"Every swimmer has a different approach to their events," Bernhardt said. "Gary (Kemp) does all
he can to get us ready physically, but mentally, it's all us."
Although the men did not perform as well as Kempf wanted, Bernhardt is not worried.
"It's a really艰 time in the training program," Bernhardt said. "Tapering is a lot mental but it does a lot of crazy things to your body."
He said the tapering process, which is a transition from intense training to less yardage and more rest, boosts energy at first, increases fatigue second and finally heightens capacity for speed at the time of competition.
"I think we're going to swim really fast at conference," Bernhardt said. "We're right where we need to be, and at conference, then it'll show."
On the other hand, senior women Quincy Adams, Julie Tompkins, Adrienne Turner and Jeanine Wilk started the meet off with a victory in the all-senior 200-meter medley relay. The women's team continued to sweep the top three places in the 50-, 100-, 200- and 1000-meter freestyle and the 200-meter backstroke.
Kempf said the women's team performed well because it was more rested than the men's team and closer to the conference championship than the men.
"They're 11 days from the championship meet," Kempf said. "They're gearing up."

Track teams stride to top-10 finishes
By Mike Miller
Kansan Sportswriter
Competing in their largest indoor meet of the year, the men's and women's track teams responded to the competition with 11 top-10 performances at the Husker Invitational last weekend.
"We were hoping people would stop up since this would be our first big meet. And I thought that we did really well in responding to that," coach Gary Schwartz said.
Runner-up performances by sophomores Scott Russell, Charlie Gruber and Andrea Branson were the top finishes for the Javahaws.
Other strong performances by the Jayhawks included a sixth-place finish by Eric Patterson in the 60-meter high hurdles and a sixth-place finish by Garrett Attig in the
pole vault.
Branson tied a personal best in the pole vault with a vault of 12 feet, 3 3/4 inches, finishing behind Kansas State's Erin Anderson. It was the third time Branson competed against Anderson this year. She will face her again this weekend at the Kansas Pre-Conference Invitational.
"I was actually kind of nervous on Friday, and that was the first time I'd been nervous before a meet since last year," Branson said. "But I'm looking forward to seeing her again this Friday because I know I've got a couple of great vaults in me still."
Russell, who set a personal best and school record two weeks ago, finished second for the first time this season in the 35-pound weight throw. His toss of 69 feet, 5 1/4 inches, also was the second longest
"Going in I knew that I had to throw great. But I knew I'd have a week when I go down sometime," Russell said. "If I throw further than 70 feet again this year — great. If not, a win is fine."
of his career.
After winning the 1,000-meter run at Northern Iowa two weeks ago, Gruber switched to the 800-meter run last week and finished with his best time of the year. 1:52.52. His second-place performance, though not a surprise, earned praise from his coach.
"Charlie had two great races against tough competition and came within an eyelash of winning," Schwartz said.
Gruber said he was pleased with his performance.
"I would've liked to win, but it was nice to run like I did," Gruber said.
TRACK AND FIELD
Though the 800 is his main event, Gruber may run the 600-meter or 400-meter races this weekend to work on speed.
Schwartz said he considered next Friday's home meet a preparation for the Big 12 Conference meet. The conference finals are Feb. 19-20 in Manhattan.
"Now it's just a matter of doing whatever we have to do to get them ready for conference, whether that's competing, not competing or running a different event," Schwartz said.

Pair downs No.1 team, loses in semifinals
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
The 15th-ranked KU tennis doubles combination of Ed Dus and Luire Uribe defeated two top-ranked teams in the Rolex Intercollegiate Indoors before falling in the semifinals last weekend.
The pair earned the right to compete in the tournament by winning the ITA All-America tournament last October.
In the first round on Thursday, they defeated No. 7 Kevin Pollack and Dustin Mauck of Southern Methodist 6.3- 6.2.
Later that evening, Dus and Uribe faced the nation's

The next morning, Uribe lost to No.14 Tom Chicinec of Minnesota 6-8, 6-4, drowning his record to 18-4.
Last weekend in Minnesota, Uribe defeated Chicoine 3-6, 6-1, 6-3.
"Luis wasn't playing very sharp." Riley said. "When you play in a tournament, you have to play against the top players, and Luis just got outplayed. He had a late night before playing Chicoine, but that's the

breaks."
"Winning over the No. 7-ranked team and the No. 1-ranked team is a big deal," head coach Mark Riley said. "After wins like that, it was our goal to win the tournament. It was very disappointing to lose."
The duo lost the next day to No. 3 Gavin Sontag and Jeff Laski of Illinois 6-4, 7-5. The loss snapped a fourmatch winning streak against ranked opponents.
"Illinois played well," Riley said. "They were first in the All-American tournament in the fall, so they had been that far in a tournament and we didn't. Next
kris Sell, the 25th-ranked women's tennis player, competed in the tournament as well, advancing to the quarterfinal round.
After defeating No. 33 Karen Goldstein of Duke on Friday morning, Sell lost in straight sets to No. 5 Marissa Irvin of Stanford 6-0, 6-0.
"Marissa played well against Kris today," head coach Jenny Garrity said. "She is definitely one of the favorites to win the tournament."
The victory over Goldstein marked the second time Sell had defeated her in the last two seasons.
in the first round, Sell defeated No. 4 Mirela Vladulescu of Alabama-Birmingham 6-4, 6-2 before facing Goldstein.
"I went out there with nothing to lose," Sell said. "I just tried to plas as smart as I could."

Maryland recruit to bring religious beliefs to Terrapins
The Associated Press
Despite all this, the University of Maryland has made an oral commitment to give Goodman a basketball scholarship. Maryland rarely makes this offer to high school juniors, and never before has the institution extended such an invitation to an Orthodox Jew.
COLLEGE PARK, Md. — Tamir Goodman's world consists of 11-hour school days, basketball and, above all, an uncompromising devotion to Judaism.
Goodman averages about 37 points a game for the Talmudical Academy, a Jewish day school near Baltimore that has an enrollment of only 72 students.
He adheres to a kosher diet and wears a yarmulke, even on the court. The Jewish religion deems that Saturday, the Sabbath, is a day of rest, meaning basketball is strictly forbidden.
His basketball prowess has earned him the nickname "Jewish Jordan," and Maryland is convinced the 6-foot-3 guard has enough skill to make an impact in the same league (the Atlantic Coast Conference) as his namesake.
"He was recruited solely on his athletic talent," said Maryland athletic director Debbie Yow.
Although there is some question whether Goodman will excel at Division I, his father has no doubt Tamir (for whom dating is not an option) will remain faithful to his religion after entering a whole new world of female students, dormitories and avid fans.
"I can't see him straying. He's a very serious kid," Karl Goodman said. "He's going to be under a basketball microscope as well as a religious microscope. I don't think he would stray even if people weren't watching him, but they are."
Tamir's mother, Chava, constantly watches over him — except during games. Because she is afraid of seeing him get hurt, Chava remains outside the arena during games, praying for his health. She enters only after the final buzzer.
"Here's how I know he's going to remain faithful to his religion at Maryland: He's a momma's boy," Karl Goodman said.
Tamir understands the situation perfectly.
"I know how much responsibility is now on my shoulders," he said. Tamir Goodman already is a part of the scene at Cole Field House. He and his coach often sit in seats
"I've been dreaming about doing this for a long time."
Tamir Goodman
Talmudical Academy student
With Goodman playing for the Terrapins, the most crucial aspect will be avoiding Saturday games.
"It's all unplowed soil." Yow said. "I've never gone through something like this before."
behind the Maryland bench during games, and more than a few fans jostle each other and point out The Jewish Kid.
Goodman, similarly, already has initiated a different lifestyle. Since word got out about his future, he has been sought by media outlets ranging from Sports Illustrated to newspapers in Israel. A public relations firm was hired to handle the crush.
Goodman's life is now public property.
"I wanted to go to Maryland. I would definitely do it again this way," he said. "I've been dreaming about doing this for a long time. It's a good challenge for me and I like challenges."
He surely has one in the ACC. After all, scoring 33 points against Antioch High may not equate to success against the likes of Duke and North Carolina. Some think Goodman may end up in the third row of seats at Cameron Indoor Stadium if his 150-pound frame gets bumped under the basket during a battle for a rebound.
Katz thinks Goodman has more talent than he's given credit for, though.
That was evident last week. The school doesn't have a bus for road games, so the players arrange their own transportation. Goodman got lost, and by the time he showed up his team was trailing 20-4 late in the first quarter.
Goodman scored 45 points, including the winning tip at the buzzer.
"He has Pete Maravich tendencies. I took one look at him and I knew he was special," said Paul Baker, a scout and ex-college coach. "If he grows, he has a chance to make a living playing basketball."
For that to happen, Goodman will have to overcome many obstacles, not the least of which will be playing under the constant scrutiny of a media machine that is already heavily into this unique story.
"I'm still only a kid," Goodman said. "I'm just Tamar."

Jayhawks' winning streak hits 5

"Their pressure was smothering, and I don't think we adjusted enough to it," Helm said. "We got frustrated with it, and we never really overcame it."
As with any Kansas-Missouri matchup, history played a major role.
Missouri forward Kesha Bonds said she was disappointed with her team's understanding of the game's importance and its preparation.
Continued from page 1B
"We need to get everyone focused on the fact that this is our biggest rivalry in the conference." Bonds said.
Bonds was one of Missouri's few bright spots. She led the Tigers with a 14-point, seven rebound performance.
Washington, in her 26th season as the Jayhawks' coach, said her teams always would be aware of the rivalry.
"Sometimes you lose the history because you're either new, or you're not aware." Washington said. "These players have always respected Missouri, and they know what we're going to be in for when we come here. We talk about what
has happened in the past, so this is a big game for us. It took a lot of pride to be able to null this one off."
Actually, it took less Pride than usual. Pride scored 14 points, four fewer than her average, but used her multi-faceted game to produce in other ways. She grabbed nine rebounds and had six steals, performing most of her defensive duties against the shorter Helm.
Kansas forward Jaclyn Johnson had a game-high 12 rebounds, and scored all eight of her points in the final six minutes to help secure the win.
The victory was the 498th of Washington's career. She will have a chance to reach her milestone 500th victory at home, when Kansas plays its next three games at Allen Fieldhouse.
Washington said she was more concerned with getting her team in a good position for the NCAA tournament than with the win plateau, but was glad her players were excited about the accomplishment.
"I'm really happy that incentive is there for them to help me get to 500," she said. "I'm excited about getting 20 wins for them. Maybe we'll take care of each other in that respect."

Former Jayhawks Paul Pierce and Raef LaFrentz each made their NBA debuts this weekend, albeit with different outcomes. Pierce thrived in the Boston Celtics' first two games while LaFrentz has already lost more home games in Denver than in his four years at Kansas.
Pierce, who left Kansas after his junior season and slipped to the 10th spot in the draft after being touted as a likely top-three pick, scored 15 fourth-quarter points, carrying the Celtics to a 77-73 win against the Cleveland Cavaliers Saturday night.
Cleveland took a 58-55 lead into the fourth quarter and led 73-72 before Pierce's tip of Eric Riley's missed free throw gave Boston the lead for good with 40 seconds left.

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Forum tries to find safe ride
(USPS 650-640)
Participants debated about how to get drinkers home
By Nadia Mustafa Kansan staff writer
About 15 students, alcohol educators and the mayor agreed on the need for an alternative mode of transportation for student drinkers at a Student Legislative Awareness Board forum last night.
They ddd not agree on how to implement a public transportation system or how to finance the possible expansion of Saferide, which offers free rides for students between 11 p.m. and 3 a.m.
Mayor Marty Kennedy said that he would like to see Saferide expanded but that he did not know from where the funds would come.
"Instead of having people stumbling around on people's lawns, providing an alternative transportation system at night is definitely a goal people share," he said.
Kennedy said that if the city could come to an agreement with the University of Kansas, it would propose a public transportation system to Lawrence taxpayers.
Students said that safe transportation to and from parties was the most important issue.
Dave Schmitz, Topeka senior, said that students did not use Saferide because it did not take them to other parties.
"Drunk people should know that they can use Saferide," he said. "Since it can't take them to bars, it defeats all that's good in the program."
Student Legislative
Awareness Board
Jodi Niehoff, Douglas County Citizens Commission on Alcohol member, said that the state would not be flexible on its underage drinking stance.
"The Department of Transportation does not support taking someone who's already drunk to another bar so
they can drink more," she said.
Shannon Martin, Topeka junior, said that she thought the Lawrence Police Department was wasting its time trying to catch underage drinkers.
"There are so many more things they could be doing that are so much more worthwhile instead of going to find where house parties are." she said.
Martin said she was glad that public transportation was discussed at the forum, but she was hesitant to believe that any action would be taken.
"It all depends on what they do about it," she said. "It depends on whether they take the students' opinions to heart."
Sam Raiskeib, Peculiar, Mo., senior, said that he did not think anything was accomplished at the forum.
"There was a lot of nice talk," he said. "But it's hard to educate and not punish at the same time."
Marci Francisco, Oread Neighborhood Association board member, said that the association wanted to promote responsible drinking.
"We want to find a good balance between people going out on the town and people sitting at home," she said.

The funeral of Jordan's beloved King Hussein caused tears to fall — even in Lawrence.
"I felt sad," said Sawson Awwad, Amman, Jordan, graduate student, who has been in America since 1995. "At the same time, I felt scared for the future because he was a very wise man. He was a good king."
Awwad, who is one of six Jordanian students at the University of Kansas, said that she watched the funeral procession of King Hussein on television yesterday.
"On TV, everybody was crying,
"Awwad said. "Everybody loves him. They were very sad."
Hussein's body was carried along the streets of Amman, which were thronged with weeping Jordanians. The crowd cast handful upon handful of flowers over the coffin as it passed.
The king's white stallion ran riderless down the street in the procession.
Awwd's husband, Yousef Basir, Amman, Jordan, postdoctoral student, said that Hussein's white horse, Amre, would never be ridden again.
President Bill Clinton and former presidents George Bush, Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford joined other world leaders to pay their respects to the king.
Basir said that he was
pleased the U.S. leaders attended the funeral but that he and his wife were anxious about the future.
He said that they hadn't talked to their families, but Awwad said that she planned to call her family in Jordan some time next week to see how everyone was doing.
In the mean time, Awwad said that she was filled with trepidation.
"It's not going to be easy. They are in a very tough situation between Israel, Iraq and the Middle East," she said. "I hope that things will go right. Everything is in bad shape. It's like a volcano."
Awwad said that everyone looked up to the king as a source of stability in a politically volatile region.
Hussein was born in 1955 and assumed the throne in 1953 after his father stepped down because of mental illness. He died Sunday after a seven-month struggle with lymphatic cancer.
Awwad said the new king had yet to be tested.
"I don't know how much experience he has," she said. "Hopefully his uncle will help him. I hope he follows the steps of his father."

Med Center expansion modernizes KU medicine
By T.J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas Medical Center will open its new KU Med West facility, giving students and physicians the opportunity to practice medicine in a modern environment.
The grand opening, Feb. 15 in Shawnee is the final culmination of a project that began in 1993, said Dr. Donald Hagen, executive vice chancellor of the KU Medical Center.
KU MedWest, which will serve the Kansas City area, is a $5.1 million, 60,000 square-foot facility offering physician offices, specialty care, diagnostic and laboratory services, an outpatient surgery center and physical therapy services.
It is located at 7405 Renner Road in Shawnee, near I-435 and Midland Drive, or just south of the Westglen movie theaters.
Hagen said that the idea for the new facility came from a 1993 study that showed the Med Center needed to develop an outpatient teaching center to improve its services.
A joint task force between the Med Center and the doctors who will practice at the new facility purchased the building three years ago and have been renovating it.
The existing building had to be completely refurbished to accommodate operating rooms and medical equipment. Hagen said.
"We had to tear everything out and redo it," he said.
The project was funded entirely with revenue from Med Center patients, with no tax money going to support the building costs. Hagen said that because the center was built without tax money, it would not be directly controlled by the University of Kansas. Control instead will lie with the Med Center and with the doctors

New dispatch system to make crime statistics more accurate
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
The new system, Computer Aided Dispatch, takes advantage of software that is making it easier for the department to compile accurate statistics, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Since this was the first year that crime statistics were available using the Lawrence Police Department's new dispatch system, the city will have to wait another year to better compare some of the results.
The crime statistics, which were released Thursday, showed a significant increase in the calls for service category because of the new dispatch system. The number of reports filed, such as homicides, rapes or robberies, was not
affected.
Wheeler said that an increase in the specific types of services — such as police checking bars, which went up from 295 bar checks to 564 — was attributable to the new system.
With the CAD system, every call that comes in through dispatch is automatically recorded on the computer. Before, calls had to be entered by hand from written log sheets.
For this reason, officers call the dispatch before every stop they make so that information can be recorded instantly.
"If an officer doesn't radio it in, then it didn't happen," Wheeler said. "This is why we have trained officers to use the radio every time."
traffic, which has led the department to hire more dispatchers this year.
The new system also automatically notifies the dispatcher if the officer who placed the call hasn't followed up in 15 minutes. Wheeler said.
The result is an increase in radio
Jerry Neverve, owner of the Red Lyon Tavern, 944 Massachusetts St., said that he hadn't noticed a significant increase in the number of bar checks.
"The they can make more checks if they want to," said Neverve. "It's nice to have a police presence downtown. It makes everyone feel safer."
Steve St. Denis, an employee at Louise's West, 1307 W. Seventh St., said that he may have seen a little increase but nothing significant.
Although the city's call-for-services numbers may have been affected by the new CAD system, the KU Public Safety Office won't have the same problem, said Rhonda Bird Song, communication center manager for the KU Public Safety Office.
She said that it has used its own version of CAD for 11 years.
Because of the varying size and population among districts, he declined to generalize about how crime rates differ between areas.
The biggest decline was in aggravated assault, which went down by 30 percent.
Wheeler said the number of calls for service affects how the city was divided into districts.
The statistic showed that every category was down except for arson, which had increased from 15 reports in 1997 to 35 in 1998.

Homicide 0 3 2
Rape 32 46 47

Motor Vehicle Theft 193 232 201
Arson 23 15 35
Reported Crime in Lawrence
Wheeler said that the department would like to take credit for the decline but that it wasn't caused by anything more than normal fluctuation.

Some of these fluctuations were nominal, such as homicides, which went down from three in 1997 to two in 1998 and robberies which declined from 70 to 69.

Volunteer, internships offered at ECM today
Ecuennial Christian Ministries will hold its semi-annual volunteer and intern fair today through Thursday at the ECM Center, 1204 Oread Air. The fair will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day
Thad Holcombe, director and campus minister for the ECM, said the main reason the fair was held was to make the availability of the resources more known and accessible to students.
"It provides just an incredible number of options for students to clarify their career plans," he said.
Holcombe said that the materials at the fair were available all year at the ECM.
Mary Klayer, assistant director of the University Honors Program, said that she has referred several students to the ECM.
"They have a really good collection. I know they have a really wide variety, which is exciting for students," she said.
Special education to receive federal money
The Kansas State Department of Education will receive $900,000 in federal funding to improve special education programs. Rep. Dennis Moore, D-Kan., said Monday.
Three fourths of the money is coming from federal funding which already was used for special education. Typically, colleges and universities compete for this money.
"It may make it more difficult for universities to get money for training purposes than it has been in the past," Skrtic said.
Tom Skrtic, the chair of the KU special education department, said that this could cause problems for teaching programs like his.
Skrtic said that it wouldn't cause problems for the KU program because they have developed close ties with local, state and national programs.
"We already have arrangements with several other states to provide training, especially online training, should they get funding." Sktic said.

Police officer struck by fleeing party-goer
A Lawrence police officer was stuck by a car while trying to break up a party early Sunday morning in the 500 block of Graystone Drive, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Officer Jim Phillips was standing in a parking lot, ushering party-goers, when a tan 1983 Oldsmobile Toranado pulled into the lot. Wheeler said,
After Phillips told the man in the Oldsmobile to leave, the man sped around the car in front him, hit Phillips' leg and pinned him between the Oldsmobile and another car, Wheeler said.
The driver abandoned his car and fled on foot. Wheeler said.
Police had not located the driver. The car he left behind had a North Carolina license plate.
Wheeler said that the officer was treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, but he had not returned to work.
Men arrested for drug and weapons offenses
Two Lawrence men were arrested for carrying several weapons and a large quantity of marijuana and drug paraphernalia early Sunday morning, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The car was pulled over because the passengers fit the description of a suspect wanted for the hit-and-run of an officer that occurred several hours earlier, Wheeler said.
Although police did not find evidence that the men were connected with the hit-and-run, they did find 12 bags of marijuana and three semi-automatic pistols, one of which was loaded, Wheeler said.
Wheeler said that police also recovered additional drugs from their house.

David Muhammad, a New York resident, has been a registered member of the Nation of Islam since March 1987.
"It's going to be an uplifting, Afro-centric, informative and spiritual message to empower, enlighten and to help these students in particular to know what knowledge black people need to obtain to get to where we want to go," Muhammad said.

At the same time, international mediators wanted to drop what they called these "side issues" and move on to details of a peace settlement for Kosovo, where more than 2,000 people have died and about 300,000 have been driven from their homes in a year of fighting.
Hashim Thaci, political director of the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army who is acting as head of the Albanian delegation, called for an immediate ceasefire agreement between the warring factions in Kosovo — the Serb forces and the Kosovo Liberation Army.
That cease-fire, he said, should be guarenteed by the United States and the five other European countries that make up the Kosovo Contact Group: Russia, France, Britain, Germany and Italy.

who start practices at the new center.
At least 50 Med Center physicians have mae plans to move to KU MedWest and establish fulltime practices.
The doctors have a wide range of specialties and also will be available for after-hours emergency care at the facility.
Hagen said that the center was designed to eventually be a full-fledged teaching center for Med Center students and residents.
"We want our people to be able to leave here and be ready to practice in the world today," Hagen said. "We don't want there to be any surprises when they get out in the real world."
Joan Shearer, the new executive director of KU MedWest, said that the facility would provide important services to patients in Shawnee, Bonner Springs, Lansing and Leavenworth, patients who now must travel long distances to receive medical care.
"We want to make the clinical expertise of KU Medical Center available to people in a location that's convenient and accessible," said Shearer, noting that research had shown the Shawnee area was lacking medical care.
Shearer said that all services, including surgical care, would be available starting on opening day.

Black statistics staggering despite overall AIDS drop
STD prevention will be the focus of sorority event
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff write
African-American women should be concerned about AIDS because the numbers are terrifying, said the president of Zeta Phi Beta, a historically black sorority.
As of 1997, African-American women demonstrated the highest increase in heterosexual transmission of all cases of HIV among women, according to statistics published by the American Association for Health.
"STDs are just so prevalent," said Erica VanRoss, president of Zeta Phi Beta. "AIDS is now the No. 1 killer of Black women 15-24."
In conjunction with Black
In conjunction with history Month, VanRoss and other members of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority Inc. will distribute free condoms and information on sexually transmitted diseases from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Kansas Union.
Sidney Hardgrave, executive director of the Douglas County AIDS project, said that while numbers of deaths related to AIDS in both Black and white groups dropped last year, the rate among African Americans dropped less. minority groups
have not benefited as significantly as whites from the treatment regimes," Hardgrave said.
social and economic limitations, do not have the same access to health care as whites, she said.
"One in eight sexually active KU students has an STD. One in 500 college students are infected by HIV"
According to 1996 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services estimates, there were 13,820 women who became infected with AIDS. White, non-Hispanic women composed 2,888 of these cases. Black, non-Hispanic composed 8,147.
But research firms try to recruit minority participants, Hardgrave said.
In addition, drug studies in the field of AIDS have concentrated on white males, so the effects of those drugs in women and minorities is not as well known.
Because of incidents like the Tuscagee Syphilis Study, in which hundreds of African Americans were intentionally infected with the syphilis virus and allowed to go untreated until the the 1970s, there has been a long-term effect of minority groups being distrustful of research programs, Hardgrave said.
Hardgrave said that several factors influenced this discrepancy.
The sorority also will sponsor a talk by Watkins Memorial Health Center health educator Deb Howes at 7:30 tonight in the Kansas Room at the Kansas Union.

Howes said her talk would focus on sexually transmitted diseases.

"One in eight sexually active KU students has an STD. One in 500 college students are infected by HIV," Howes said.
She said that it was important to get information out to all students, regardless of race.
"If they're having unprotected sex, they could be transmitting the virus without knowing it."
Howes said.
Howesa Ericka Morris, Philadelphia junior and Zeta Phi Beta member, said the information tables were necessary to help prevent the spread of HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases.
"A lot of people are very informed, but a lot of people don't know that there are a lot of other diseases you can contract," Morris said. "If they're lucky enough not to catch AIDS, they're dying of other things."

Food tax elimination right choice for students,fixed-income families
The Kansas House of Representatives made a wise decision for Kansas and KU students by voting to eliminate the 4.9 percent state sales tax on food instead of abolishing property taxes on motor vehicles. Now the Senate and Gov. Bill Graves need to follow suit.
Graves originally proposed eliminating automobile taxes this year. Graves is correct that vehicle taxes are high, but abolishment of the food tax is a far more pressing issue and should be done first.
The potential implications for KU students are clear. Many students do not own cars, but nearly all students buy food from local stores. Elimination of a vehicle tax would save only some students money, while elimination of a food tax would benefit nearly everyone.
The two options would have simi
The House of Representatives made a wise decision by supporting the repeal.
lar effects on the state as a whole
Both measures would save taxpayers roughly the same amount of money, about $230 million each year for the food tax and about $270 million for the auto tax. However, the food tax should be a priority because, unlike the vehicle tax, eliminating it will help those who are most in need of financial help — the poor and the elderly. Many of these individuals are forced to live on fixed incomes.
Anyone who can afford to buy an expensive car should also have enough money to pay taxes on it. Eliminating the vehicle tax benefits those with numerous or expensive
cars.
But everyone has to buy a certain amount of food, regardless of the number of zeros behind the dollar sign on paychecks. Repealing the food tax can benefit all Kansans equally.
Sponsors of the bill say that Kansas is one of only 16 states to tax food. This fact led lawmakers to a rare display of bipartisan support as the food tax measure passed the House 86-37, with strong support from both Democrats and Republicans.
Unfortunately, the bill faces a much more difficult road ahead, as the Senate and the governor have given the idea a cool reception. We only can hope they will follow the wisdom of the House and decide to abolish the food tax.
It's the most equitable solution for students and for the state.
Nathan Willis for the editorial board
Worthy feats lead to pats on the back
The following students, alumni and state officials deserve our thanks and a pat on the back for their contributions to the University of Kansas.
The first goes to State Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, for sponsoring legislation that would place in-state tuition within the reach of certain out-of-state students. The bill would apply to students who own property in Kansas, register vehicles in the state or possess a Kansas driver's license. For out-of-state Jayhawks who have made Lawrence their home but still pay triple the tuition of Kansas residents, Sloan's proposal is a step toward fairness.
Monetary contributions, compassion earn praise.
The Kansas Health Foundation is entitled to a pat on the back for its $450,000 grant to the University for a campaign to tackle binge drinking. The money will go toward a program that emphasizes facts and statistics rather than scare tactics, said Associate Provost K Kathleen McCluskev-Fawcett.
making a contribution to America's future teachers. The two made a $48,300 donation to the University's School of Education, which will be used to create scholarships, said Karen Gallagher, dean of the school.
Finally, a pat is due for Latin American Solidarity for establishing a relief fund for the victims of the Jan. 25 earthquake in Armenia, Colombia. The quake killed nearly 1,000 and left 200,000 homeless. The compassion of LAS is an inspiration.
A big pat on the back goes to Sylvia Mahon Allgaier, 1958 KU graduate, and her father, Harry G. Mahon, for

Perspective
Full education includes diversity requirement
In the next few days, faculty and student members of the College Assembly will be voting by mail ballot on a proposed cultural diversity requirement for B.A. and B.G.S.
If you have general questions or comments, e-mail the page staff (opinion@kansan.com) or call 864-4924.
entering the University of Kansas in 2000 and after. I enthusiastically support the proposal.
William M. Tuttle, Jr.
Guest columnist
According to the new requirement, these students would need to complete a course about America's diverse racial, ethnic, religious, sexual, age, disability or class cultures.
Recently, in my honors freshman-sophomore American history course, a bright student questioned whether American slavery
before the Civil War was really much worse than the hassles which Americans, including KU students, have to deal with today. This in not a dumb student, nor is this an isolated example.
Through the years, I have encountered unaware students who, because of educational deficiencies before enrolling at the University, didn't understand that slavery was hereditary, involuntary, lifelong and extremely brutal both physically and emotionally, including whippings, rape and the forced dismemberment of families through slave sales.
The University offers an excellent undergraduate education. The cultural diversity requirement would round out that education not only for these students, but for many others as well.
Some Caucasian KU students and faculty seem to think that this proposed requirement is an attack on Caucasian people. For example, a recent letter to the editor in Wednesday's Laurence Journal-World complains that Professor Cheryl Lester, a proponent of the requirement, has demeaned Caucasian people by stating that "some white students found it difficult to believe minority students suffered hardships on a regular basis."
Anyone who questions this statement does not know, or has not seriously talked to, any KU students of color, any gay, lesbian or bisexual students, or any students with disabilities.
The letter-writer continues by asking, why "is she attacking white students? Do only white students have a monopoly on intolerance, discrimination, racism and prejudice?" Of course not. Professor Lester's purpose was to attack ignorance.
It is apparent that the letter's author is precisely the kind of person who would benefit from exposure to America's vast cultural diversity.
It seems to me that not only students, but even some faculty, could benefit from the cultural diversity requirement. Twenty years ago, women's history was derided as a silly waste of time. Why, he wanted to know, should we teach women's history?
Women's history now is accepted as a legitimate topic of research and teaching. But such attitudes persist.
For example, at a meeting of the College Assembly in Deoember that discussed the diversity proposal, Professor Don Marquis of
It was unwise. I think. Not only does the article hurt his credibility, but it discourages others who are working hard to fulfill the educational goals of the University.
More recently, Professor Marquis wrote a guest column for the Feb. 2 Kansan in which he asked: "Shouldn't a course in Mafia culture count? What about a study of the social groups involved in the manufacture of pornographic videos?" Continuing in this ridiculous vein, Marquis suggested "a course in Colorado diversity... especially if field work on the ski slopes were possible. Hawaiian diversity anyone?"
One student, Summer Schippers of Hoxie responded to the Kansan that Marquis' guest column had even provoked rage within her, and that "diversity issues are not an occasion for 'levity' as suggested in his column."
the philosophy department questioned what would be defined as a diverse culture when selecting courses.
Sadly, some of my colleagues have become discouraged and have left the University, including three philosophy professors who are experts in African-American philosophy and multiculturalism.
It doesn't have to be this way. Western Civilization long has been a requirement for KU students in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences. It is a valuable requirement and, through the years, the Western Civilization program has updated and revised its reading list to recognize other perspectives, including those of women and people of African descent.
The purpose of the proposed diversity requirement is important and straightforward. The goal, Cheryl Lester has explained, "is to enable a student to understand the American experience from another perspective."
Almost three-fourths of America's colleges and universities either have adopted a diversity requirement or have one under serious consideration. Many of the nation's top colleges and universities have such a requirement, and, like the KU proposal, they offer a menu of courses from which to choose.
The University's cultural diversity proposal has been debated for far too long. It is time now to act.
The United States dramatically has changed during the past 30 years. So too have the state of Kansas and the University. Record numbers of immigrants have come to the United States from Asia, Mexico, Central and South America, and the Caribbean.
The University has welcomed many of the sons and daughters of the new immigration, as well as many hundreds of African-American, Native-American, and Hispanic-American students.
It is past time to learn about the diverse cultures of people who live among us, at the University, in Lawrence, in Kansas and in the United States.
In order to serve both the University and the state of Kansas, as well as the nation, we need to prepare our students to live and work and prosper in the 21st century. Adoption of the cultural diversity requirement will be an important step in this direction.

Feedback
I was in attendance at a KU Alumni Association Board meeting at the Adams Alumni Center last Friday and was pleased to have been given a copy of the University Daily Kansan reflecting Katie Burford's story on methamphetamine.
I very much appreciate your interest in the "meth" threat, and I am grateful to learn that, apparently, "meth" has not negatively impacted the campus of my alma mater.
Bureau director lauds meth story
Sadly, it has negatively impacted my state.
You may not be aware that methamphetamine, in general, and "meth labs" in particular, constitute the top investigative priority of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation currently. You may also not be aware that, unfortunately, Kansas is generally considered to rank nationally in the top five states in the number of illegal "meth labs" seized annually. Moreover, we rank in the top 10 states nationally in the amount of meth amphetamine imported into the state, according to rankings of the Drug Enforcement Administration.
Four "meth labs" were seized in Kansas in 1994. That was a record year then. In 1998, there were 189 "meth labs" seized in our state! The KBI alone seized 148 of those labs.

Students need interest in city
Tuition change lacks criteria
The solution to this issue is not keeping an inefficient polling site open. The solution is to get students interested and involved enough in the local community to vote. The county will support active students.
On the topic of in-state residency in the Thursday's edition of the University Daily Kansan Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost, disregarded a wide variety of life circumstances. She stated that a proposed bill intending to change residency (read: tuition cost) would allow parents to buy a house in Kansas and put their child's name on the title, making their child an in-state resident. She stated
Again, thank you for your interest in "meth" and for your concern about our state and alma mater.
This is in response to yesterday's front page article by Nadia Mustafa about the Allen Fieldhouse polling site.
Finally, it is just as likely for a student's parents to move out of Kansas as it is for a married couple or independent student. It would be just as hard for the parents to prove "intent" to remain in Kansas as it is for the other two parties. We now live in a mobile society, and university policy needs to reflect that. "Intent" to reside in Kansas is a nebulous criterion for residency.
This beines the fact that, under the existing residency policy, a student's parents can move to Kansas while the student is in high school, and thereby make their child eligible for instate residency even though the parents have not significantly contributed to the Kansas tax base. In contrast, a newly married student from out of state, whose spouse who has contributed to the Kansas tax base for a period of time longer than these parents, may be considered ineligible for state residency, as are independent students who have resided and worked for several years in Kansas while attending the University. The spouse or independent student may well have contributed more to the Kansas tax base than the student whose parents recently moved here.
that this wouldn't be fair to parents who have paid Kansas taxes over the years.

Programs to share African-American history in February
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
KU students interested in diversity and cross-cultural training will be given more opportunities to examine these issues starting this month.
The Department of Student Housing has planned a series of programs for Black History Month. The department also will launch a yearlong program emphasizing diversity when Lewis Hall re-opens.
In February, five programs will highlight African Americans in various aspects of society.
"Diversity is the hot topic," Randy Timm, assistant director of student housing programming said. "You can't just look at your own culture in today's world."
A week full of lectures, games and discussions will start Feb. 22 and run through Feb. 25. Oliver Hall will kick off the week by sponsoring a Black History Jeopardy contest at 7:30 p.m. Feb. 22. Step-on-it, a discussion on the life of an African American in the greek community, will be held at 7 p.m. Feb. 23 in Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall. Jayhawker Towers will present a profile of University of Kansas African Americans at 7 p.m. Feb. 24 in Tower D.
Timm said that McColllum Hall also planned to be host for a How Stella Got Her Groove Back program. He said that it would include a viewing and discussion of the 1998 film. No date has been set for the event.
Timm said that the Department of Student Housing is making plans to emphasize diversity even further.
Residents of Lewis will be able to participate in a new program

stressing diversity, community service and leadership when the residence hall re-opens this fall.
"We are starting the program because there is increasing interest and additional focus from students on community service and diversity," Ken Stoner, director of student housing said.
Timm said that there were already 130 students signed up to live and participate in the program once renovations to the building were complete.
Participants of the program would be required to attend one program each month on either diversity, community service or leadership. Students involved in the program would sign a participation agreement stating their commitment to the program and intent to comply with requirements.
Timm said that plans for the program had not been finalized but that the program's structure would be similar to Ellsworth's 3E, Excellence, Experience in Ellsworth.
City commission's room gets overhaul
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission has moved its meetings out of its City Hall home, at least for a while.
Kansan staff writer
When commissioners move meetings back to their usual meeting room, now being renovated, it will be multi-media capable.
Starting tonight, the commission will meet in Suite 301 at the Riverfront Plaza until remodeling of the meeting room at City Hall, 6 E. Sixth Street, is complete.
City Manager Mike Wildgen said the project would cost about $100,000 and was estimated to take about two months to complete.
"Basically, it's a modernization of the room." Wildgen said. "It's 20 years old. It was not designed for computers or modern audio/visual capabilities."
Mayor Marty Kennedy said the completed room would have a built-in screen so that videos shown at commission meetings could be viewed by the general public.
Commissioner John Nalbandian said, "I think the changes are necessary because we want to make sure that the television viewing audience can see the visual aides presented to the city commission."
Wilden said that the project also would replace the existing furniture, carpeting and wall hangings and would eliminate one of the doors to the room.
Kennedy said that Sunflower Cablevision would be rewiring
the room and that there also would be changes in lighting to create a softer atmosphere.
Kennedy said the primary purpose of the renovation was to upgrade the commission's audio/visual systems.
"We're not all getting personal computers or anything," Kennedy said. "But they are building more outlets and creating additional wiring so that in the future we may have that capability or go completely paperless."
The city has not accepted a bid on the audio/visual improvements. Kennedy said he thought that would happen next week.
The Riverfront Plaza sits on land that the city owns. But the city is leasing the room from the owners of the building. Chelsea GCA Realty Inc., which is based in New Jersey, for $810 a month. Chelsea currently is negotiating a sale of the building with Riverfront L.L.C., 411 Iowa St.
Kennedy said that the city would continue to pay $810 rent if negotiations between Chelsea and Riverfront L.L.C. were completed before the renovation of the commission room was finished.
"We plan on being there about two months, which would complete the project by April 13, when three new commissioners will be stepping up, and three commissioners will be retiring," Kennedy said. "We keep pressing to get it done by then, but it doesn't look like the project will be done until later in April or early May."

Texas prosecutors to use DNA testing in 22-year-old case
The Associate Press
On Monday, a judge delayed a fourth trial for the victim's former neighbor while a newly-found trace of semen is subjected to DNA analysis.
BASTROP, Texas — For nearly 22 years, investigators had genetic information that might identify a woman's killer, and they didn't know it.
It's up to experts to determine whether the old, neglected sample found on the woman's blood-soaked underwear is salvageable and, if so, whether it came from Kerry Max Cook or someone else.
Cook, 42, has been convicted of the 1977 killing twice,
but both verdicts were thrown out on appeal.
Although DNA deteriorates over time, experts said some information could be extracted from Linda Jo Edwards' underwear if the sample was large enough.
"It really depends on what it is, where it has been and under what conditions it has been kept all this time," said Kermit Channel II, forensic biology supervisor at the state Crime Laboratory in Little Rock, Ark.
District Judge Robert Jones scheduled a conference call for Thursday to decide whether there was enough of a sample to continue with DNA testing. If not, jury selection will begin next Tuesday.
Prosecutors say Cook beat 21-year-old Edwards in the head with a plaster statue, stabbed her repeatedly and sexually mutilated her in the East Texas apartment. Investigators found Cook's fingerprints on Edwards' sliding glass door.
A 1992 retrial ended with a hung jury. In 1994, ne was again convicted and sentenced to death. An appeals court overturned that verdict in 1996, citing prosecutorial misconduct.
Cook was first sentenced to death in 1978 and spent 13 years on death row until a state appeals court threw out the conviction because a psychiatrist who testified at trial didn't tell Cook their conversation could be used against him.

KU sophomore enjoying new fame on the Web
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
Scott Raymond's semester of cyber-fame started Sunday night.
Raymond, Belton, Mo., sophomore, is one of three winners of the Semester Online contest sponsored by Levi Strauss & Co. Last semester, he won a $500-per-week allowance to buy all of his necessities via the Internet this semester.
Raymond also won the opportunity to tell people on the World Wide Web what he has bought with his weekly allowance.
The first of the contest's live weekly Webcasts was broadcast at 8 p.m. on Sunday. Raymond and the other two winners, women studying at California State University-Chico and the University of Pennsylvania, logged on to Levi's site, turned on digital cameras the company had supplied and chatted with people from around the globe.
He said that Web surfers asked him how he found out about the contest, how he won and what he did for fun.
"It was mostly a getting-to-know you kind of thing." Raymond said. "I think that the next episodes will have themes for us to talk about." Raymond said that he wasn't having much trouble finding things on the Internet.
"I found out that you can order Papa John's online," Raymond said.
Although he said that it was possible to order pizza on the Internet, he hadn't been buying much food because he had a residence hall meal plan.
"This week I've mostly bought toys," he said. "I bought a mini-disc player, two CDs and a new hard drive. I found out while I was surfing that my hard drive was full, so I figured I better get a new one."
The residence assistants at Templin Hall gave him an award last year, after the winners of the contest were announced.
Raymond said that he was enjoy ing his newfound celebrity.
"When the people in my hall found out that I had won, they gave me the 'Everybody's New Best Friend' award," he said.
"It's not something that many people get the opportunity to do," said Jonathan Williams, Manhattan, Kan., sophomore.
Raymond's friends said they thought the possibility of winning the contest was exciting.
Williams said that he hadn't seen much change in Raymond's behavior, or the way people were treating him.
"If Scott wants to give me free stuff, I won't object." Williams said. "But he's not obligated to do that."
Kansas may stay in standard time
By Katrina Hull
Special to the Kansan
A proposed Kansas House bill could make the sun rise earlier in the Sunflower state by abolishing daylight-saving time.
State Rep. Dale Swenson, R-Wichita, has drafted a bill that would free Kansans from resetting their clocks in April and allow the state to remain on standard time year round.
"The reasons vary." Swenson said. "Teachers claim students are tired and less motivated after the time change. Some people are sick of resetting their clocks each year, while others want to enjoy the evening shade earlier."
The idea to extend daylight hours with daylight-saving time originated from a 1784 essay by Benjamin Franklin and was first implemented in the United States during World War I to conserve energy.
In 1966, the Uniform Time Act established consistent use of daylight-saving time within each U.S. time zone.
Arizona, Hawaii and parts of Indiana, through acts of their state legislatures, remain in standard time year round. Swenson said the proposal to add Kansas to this list was not scheduled for a committee hearing yet because he wanted to find out if there was statewide support.
Supporters of a national movement for year-round standard time claimed that the biannual clock
modification was detrimental to health and safety, and a nuisance.
David Holmes, KU professor of psychology, said daylight-saving time had minimal psychological impact.
"What triggers sleep and wakefulness is an internal clock located in the brain, and it is started by exposure to bright light." Holmes said. "So changing the time could conceivably have some effect."
Since daylight comes an hour later in April during daylight-saving time, it could make it harder to get motivated in the morning, Holmes said. But this would not be a major disruption because the internal clock resets itself in about a day.
Holmes said the loss of sleep that Swenson's bill would prevent was not that significant.
Andrew LeRoy, Kansas City, Mo., sophomore, said the biggest problem he foresaw would be confusion between Johnson County and Jackson County, Mo., businesses, not to mention the overall inconvenience for people who live close to the state lines.
"I live five blocks away from the Missouri-Kansas border," he said. "I would have to change my watch every time I went to my friends."
Swenson said he had thought of possible problems regarding Kansas City, but he didn't want to be presumptuous. Counties such as Johnson and Wyandotte, which border Missouri, could be exempted from any law change.
DAYLIGHT-SAVING TIME
- Seventy countries take advantage of energy conservation through daylight-saving time.
Since 1966, clocks have been set forward one hour at 2 a.m. on the first Sunday in April and set back one hour at 2 a.m. on the last Sunday in October.
The U.S. Department of Transportation said that each day of daylight-saving time conserves 1 percent of the nation's energy.
- There is a worldwide Internet petition for year-round, daylight-saving time, as well as Web sites at www.daylightsaving.com to air gripe about resetting clocks.

THE JOB INTERVIEW shocking truths that can help you nail your dream job
Paid advertisement
Let's face it. Nobody looks forward to job interviews. A total stranger stares you down for an hour while you sit there uncomfortably in your pantyhose, trying to sound super-intelligent while also remembering to keep your legs crossed correctly. While you prefer to avoid thinking about the whole thing, and just get through it when the time comes - Don't! Here are a few "insider" insights about the whole process that may shock you, but can help you better connect with your interviewer and distinguish yourself from the competition.
RESUMES ARE OBSOLETE
Well, they're not really obsolete, but they are only one piece of the job puzzle. "Most people spend much more time on their
the job puzzle. "Most people resume than they do preparing for each interview. That's a huge mistake." says Bruce Tulgan, the author of Work this Way, a book about how to thrive in your first few jobs. "People can easily lie on resumes.The interview is much more important, which is why recruiters spend so much time doing them - and why you should spend time getting ready."
What to do:
a team sport that you play. Make it clear that you will be just as hungry and passionate about the job for which you are interviewing.
- Think about all the time you will spend on your job search; then, carve out a chunk of those hours to prep for your interviews.
What to do:
3. GOOD QUESTIONS, NOT GOOD ANSWERS CAN CLOSE THE DEAL
WORK EXPERIENCE NOT REQUIRED
Most people spend time preparing answers that will showcase their intelligence, savvy and interest in a company. This is important. But preparing some thoughtful, well-researched questions can accomplish the same thing - and often with greater impact! When the interviewer gets around to "Any questions?" (and he or she will), that's your chance to strut any stuff that you haven't been asked about during the course of the interview. What you
- Instead of just describing your past summer jobs, focus on stories that showcase your energy and passion for the activities you really care about. Or, talk about how your leadership has made a difference. While your examples may be summer jobs, they may also be a concert you organized, a paper or project for a favorite class, or
Okay, so you may not have a ton of real work experience. But that's not what recruiters are really looking for when they are hiring new college grads. Believe it or not, the very fact that you are young can be worth a lot to many companies. They're in search of a 22-year-old's energy and fresh perspective. You may have a whole new way of looking at things, and that's invaluable to most companies."Frankly, experience is not very important to us." says Tom Scott, co-founder of Nantucket Nectars, a booming small beverage company with current annual sales over $50 million. "We can teach you to do the things you need to do here. What we're looking for is hunger." As Scott suggests, entry-level job interviews are not designed to weigh your experience, they're supposed to measure your smarts, enthusiasm, personality and passion.
What to Do:
stand out you need to arm yourself with current and substantive information about the company and industry. Thanks to today's technology, this does not have to be a daunting or time consuming proposition. You can learn a lot with minimal effort and make a great impact because most other undergrad candidates won't take the extra step.
The Secret Success Series
- Call and ask for a company's sales materials to see how they talk to their customers.
- Read the newspaper! See what's happening in the world that might be relevant to the respective company or industry.
brings you information designed to help you achieve your personal and career goals. Watch for the rest of this series in future issues of your school newspaper.
YOU CAN KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT A COMPANY
What to Do:
- Stay away from obvious questions (i.e.; the ones answered in the company literature). Instead, find out what your interviewer thinks about a relevant company or industry issue. Or, ask about a specific part of the job that is of particular interest to you.
reveal in a well-thought-out question might even nail you the job. Jodi Kantor, a New York City college grad, used this strategy to beat out heavy competition for a job as political aide to the Mayor. When she interviewed for the position she wanted to highlight her passion for and understanding of the job. She called on her own experience with New York's parking ticket and birth certificate bureaucracy to make her point." I made sure to ask specific questions about whether I could work on customer service projects that would fix problems similar to the ones I had faced as a city resident." she says. Turns out that the Mayor was launching some big service initiatives in that area. Kantor's interviewer was so impressed with her genuine interest in the city's problems that he hired her and put her on the team to help solve them.
Many people look at prepping for an interview like studying for an exam. They read all the obvious material to make sure they know "who, what and where". This is a great start, but it's just the tip of the iceberg. Reading a company's recruiting brochure and spitting it back in the interview won't impress anyone. To really
Use on-line info like company or news web sites. Sites like www.wetfeetpress.com and www.vaultreports.com carry great company and industry profiles for sale.
- Utilize free news information resources at your school library like Lexis/Nexis or the Bloomberg News Service.
5. FUN, NOT FACTS MAY MAKE THE DIFFERENCE
Probably the most important piece of information a recruiter will want to know but will never ask directly is "What is this person like to be around?"A good recruiter knows you will be working some long hours in a closed room with other people. You better believe that a key question on his or her checklist is "Do I want to work with this person? Would my colleagues want to work with this person' Let's face it, many people will have the same skills as you, but not everyone can package those skills with your personality. You want the recruiter to walk away wanting to work with you!
What to Do:
- Make sure pieces of YOU come out in the interview! Be confident about yourself,and communicate with energy
to laugh when appropriate or talk about a personal issue to make a relevant point.

With only three weeks left in the regular season, the treacherous Big 12 Conference road schedule has finally benefited the Kansas women's basketball team.
The nationally ranked Texas Tech Raiders and Iowa State Cyclones each lost conference road games this weekend and fell into a first-place tie in the 12 standings at B-2.
Texas Tech lost to Texas Saturday in Austin 74-70. The Longhorns jumped out to a double-digit lead in the first half and held off a late Tech comeback with the strength of guard Edwina Brown's 23-point, 10-assist performance.
"We didn't have an answer for Edwina Brown," said Tech coach Marsha Sharpe. "She was the difference in the game with the things she made happen."
The Cyclones were upset a day later in Lincoln as Nebraska guard Brooke Schwartz paced the Cornhuskers with 20 points.
After last week's home win against Colorado and Sunday's victory at Missouri, the Jayhawks are now 8-3 in conference play, only a half-game behind first place.
Kansas appears in good position to win the Big 12 title as it plays three of its final five games at home. The Raiders

Robertson's Perspective
Robertson recounts weekend in Colorado
A day after scoring a career-high 23 points in the Jayhawks 86-80 win against Colorado Sunday, senior guard Ryan Robertson sat down with the Kansan's Mike Harryt to provide a behind-the-scenes look at Kansas men's basketball. The following is from the interview:
We got to Boulder around eight o'clock (Saturday night) and after about 30 minutes at the hotel, we just put our stuff down and immediately went to dinner at the hotel. We had cheeseburgers, chicken or spaghetti and watched the OSU - OU game on ESPN while we ate. At halftime, we were done eating and Coach Williams had a short meeting going over personnel, and we watched a few clips of Colorado. Then we went back to our rooms.
Normally my roommate is T.J. (Pugh), but as seniors you rotate getting your own room so this trip I was by myself. I got back to the room about 9:30, and I watched the rest of the OU game. I was going to get a movie, but Gwyneth Paltrow was on Saturday Night Live, so I watched that instead. It was a little weak. I liked Gwyneth, but the skirts weren't that funny.
Nobody comes around when it's lights out. we're pretty much on our own everywhere we go. The coaches trust us and expect us to be in our rooms and have the lights
It was lights out at mid night, and I don't ever go to bed before 12:30. But Saturday night I turned the TV off at 11:30, and I don't why. I just went to sleep. It was 11:30 their time, so really it was 12:30 our time — but still, I go by the clock.

The Jayhawks are riding a three game winning streak after defeating Colorado 86-80 on Sunday and are now the only Big 12 team ranked in the top 25.
One week after being omitted from The Associated Press top 25 for first time in eight years, the Kansas men's basketball team reentered the poll at No. 24 yesterday.
One reason the Jayhawks have moved back into the rankings is the recent resurgence of its bench, especially in the last two games.
"I've felt pretty good about our
dive all season long," Kansas
coach Roy Williams said. "But
the last two games, it's really
been significant because of the
way they've scored."
The Kansas reserves scored a season-high 31 points in the Jayhawks 69-46 win on Feb. 1 and tallied 21 points in Sunday's victory against Colorado.
Despite being limited to seven points in the game in Boulder, Kansas guard Kenny Gregory has excelled since being removed from the starting
But it has been the resurgence of freshman Marlon London and the emergence of red-shirt freshman Jeff Carey that has given the Jayhawks such a boost.
lineup four games ago. In his 18 games as a starter, Gregory averaged 12 points and 4.8 rebounds per game, but he has upped those totals to 14.8 points and 6.5 rebounds in the last four games.

assists per game and connected on only 5-of-19 field goals, including 0-of-5 from three-point range.
After scoring in double-fig
But in the last two games the 6-
3 guard has averaged eight points, three rebounds and five assists per game while connecting on 6-of-13 field goals and two-of-three from beyond the goal.
In addition to his contribution on the offensive end, London provided the Jayhawks with some exceptional on the ball defense on Sunday. London helped limit Colorado guard Jaquay Walls to 3-of-9 shooting in the second half and blocked his three-point attempt with 24.3 seconds remaining in the game.
"I've always been a big fan of Marlon's," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said Sunday. "He was just sensational today."
Although London has produced for the Jayhawks all season, Carey's ascension has been more of a surprise. With Lester Earl missing the last two games because of an ankle injury, Carey has seen his minutes and production increase.
"I just tried to stay close to him and use my size and quickness to my advantage. That time I was able to block." London said.
"With our foul problems and Lester out, somebody had to
"Sometimes the ball just comes to you," Carey said. "I just concentrated on boxing my man out. There's really no magic to it."
The 6-9 center grabbed a career-high 12 rebounds in 12 minutes and said that it was a result of being in the right position and a little luck.
step up," Williams said. "I went with Ashante and Jeff in the first half and tried to see which one gave me the most confident feeling. At that point, it was Jeff Carey, and he did some nice things for us."
Carey also has improved his scoring in the last two games, totaling 11 points, including five against Colorado.
Carey said that he would continue to concentrate on doing anything to help the Jayhawks win.
"I looked to score a little bit more today because I felt a little more comfortable," Carey said. "But still my rule is to do the little things, like rebound."

Commentary
No.500 means almost nothing if not supported by KU students
If a Kansas women's basketball coach gets 500 wins and nobody is around to see it, does the victory really count?
Within the next week and a half that question could be answered.
Marian Washington, Kansas women's basketball coach for 26 years, will likely get career win No.500 within the next three home games. She is only two wins away from the feat, and the Jayhawks are riding a 20-game home court winning streak, the fourth longest in the country.
Two victories are extremely likely.
But will anyone be there to watch?
Judging from this and past years'
attendance numbers, it is unlikely.
And it is a shame that more people, specifically students, don't attend more women's games.
Washington, and the team, deserve the respect. And students should at least attend the next three home games so Washington can get win No. 500 in front of a roaring Allen Fieldhouse crowd instead of a whimpering one.
Washington deserves that from students.
After all, this was a woman who once

Washington is the only Women's Athletics Director in the history of the University of Kansas, a position created in the 1970s that was later abandoned. She is also the only Black woman to ever serve as an athletics director.
sports@kansan.com
director at the University
The 51-year-old coach started the Kansas women's track team, helped coach the 1996 Women's U.S. Olympic Team to a gold medal, has served as president of the Black Coaches Association and led Kansas to two conference titles in the last three years.
Washington was also the first Black woman to ever coach a United States team in international competition, when in 1983 she headed the U.S. Select Team in Taiwan.
And when Washington's team wins No. 500, the coach will become one of a select few who has done so, solidifying herself as one of the winningest coaches in women's basketball history. "We don't come to care."
Kansas fans and students have puffed themselves up into thinking they are the best basketball fans in the country. But while students might wait days to get into a men's game, hardly any show for a women's game. That makes Kansas fans solid men's basketball fans, not all-around basketball fans.
I understand the attraction to men's games over women's games, but for at least the next three women's games, students should put an emphasis on the women.
Attendance at men's game averages more than 16,000. The women average 2,300 people per game.
That is shameful, especially since both teams are ranked, are in contention for Big 12 Conference titles and will make the NCAA Tournament.
Washington's milestone is a testament to her abilities as a coach and it serves as a good time to reflect on how much she has given to the University.
The best way to show Washington how much she is appreciated is to show up and cheer on her accomplishment. The rest of her home accomplishment.
The next three home games:
Saturday, 2:05 p.m. vs. Nebraska Feb. 13, Tuesday, 7:05 p.m. vs. Iowa State
Feb. 20, Saturday, 7:05 p.m. vs. Oklahoma

Today's Birthday (Feb. 9).
You've got big visions for the future, but it's going to take a big team to make it happen. In February, put your plan together and start working on the bugs. In March, get the money you need. April is good for learning the most difficult skills, and in August, you should see the corrections that need to be made. In November, you can push forward in your career, although a great deal of energy is required. Life will be much easier in December, as things start shifting in your favor.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day; 0 the most challenging.

You could find a real treasure today, but you'll need to dig for it. It'll be way down underneath, but in a place, you may have dug before. If you're a shopping aficionado, cruise through all your favorite stores today and poke around a little.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
If you ask leading questions today, people will let you know even more than they realize. Today's a good day for investigative reporting because people will just naturally tell you the truth. It'll pop out of their mouths. The same is true for you, too.

Something you've been struggling with could suddenly become easy today. You've imagined how wonderful your life could be, and if you just keep going for it, odds are good you can make it happen.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Today is a 7.
You might make quite a bit of money today, if you play your cards right. An older person is impressed by your skills. If you appear to be compliant and will ing to take orders, you could get a raise in pay.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Capcom (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is 5.
All sorts of interesting new information is going to be revealed today, possibly including some of your own secrets. This is not necessarily a negative thing, but it is going to be somewhat startling. You might find out things you didn't even know about yourself.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Looks like an older person has ideas for you, and you might not agree with them. Unfortunately, this person outranks you. This is difficult because you don't want to speak up for fear of losing your job or your grade, but this time you probably should.

PHOENIX — Antonio McDyess, bracing for a hostile fan reaction in his first trip back to Phoenix, smiled and signed autographs before he and the rest of the Denver Nuggets took on the Suns Sunday night.
McDyess receives cold reception in Phoenix
By coincidence, Phoenix played its home opener against the Nuggets, the team that lured McDyess back to Denver just 15 months after trading him to the Suns.
Then he scored 28 points despite a rough reception from the crowd and his former Suns' teammates in a 115-108 loss.
LA JUSTICE
He was booed loudly during introductions. A few rows behind Denver's bench, a fan held up a sign that read "McSellout."
But McDyess didn't look rattled. He opened by sinking two 20-footers and had 10 points in the first quarter. He played seven ineffective minutes in the third quarter, then had an overpowering 18-point fourth quarter.

"When I initially looked at the list, it didn't blow me away," Clark said. "But some of the players I had not been that familiar with. Ultimately, you start digging in and finding more information about them. That's when you start getting excited about it."
Excited? About the expansion draft? It may be hard for the rest of the league to believe, but Cleveland is pumped. After a three-year hiatus, the NFL is back in football-mad northern Ohio.

Kansas Women move to No.21

have tough road games remaining at Colorado and Nebraska, while the Cyclones must travel to Allen Fieldhouse for a crucial match-up with the Jayhawks on Feb. 16.
The Jayhawks' late-season run and current five-game winning streak has been fueled by the resurgent play of post players Nakia Sanford and Jaclyn Johnson. Each posted a double-double Wednesday against Colorado and led the team in points and rebounds at Missouri.
"This league has decided it is going to double and triple-team Lynn Pride, so it has opened up a lot of opportunities for our inside players," said coach Marian Washington. "The performances we are getting from players like Nakia and Jaclyn will help us the rest of the way."
Kansas (18-6) moved up one place to No. 21 in this week's Associated Press poll. Iowa State fell only one spot to No. 16 after its loss to Nebraska, while Texas Tech fell three spots to No. 13.
The ranking represents Texas Tech's lowest of the season, and the first week the team has been on the top 10. The Raiders are now 19-3 overall.
The top six teams held their position, but every other team in the top 25 moved around in this week's AP poll. Each of the top six went undefeated for the week, and all posted at least one double-digit victory.
Louisiana State made the biggest jump of the week, rising four spots to 20th after entering the

Robertson has a feel for team's attitude
Continued from page 1B
that we'll probably be guarding. So after the pregame meal is over, Coach Williams quizzes us. He goes right down the list and asks everybody.
— I always take a shower before the game.
After we go back to our rooms, we usually have about an hour and a half to two hours before we leave. Some guys take a nap. Jeff Boschee shakes his head. I just watched the Knicks-Heat game and then took a shower
We got on the bus at about 12:10, and the arena was only about five minutes away. We had to be dressed and seated by 1:00. So I got dressed and then I went out and shot around for about 10 minutes. Usually when we go on the road, the locker room is just a really small room with some lockers, and it's every man for himself. (Sunday) I didn't even have a locker. I was just over in the corner by the shower, so I just folded all my clothes over my chair.
Before the game, I get really nervous. But I know that once warm-ups start, I'll get done with that part of the nerves. Before all of our games, I try to get a feel if the guys are really into the game or if I can tell that they're getting ready for the game. Like if everybody's really quiet and focused before the game and
everybody's sweating after warm ups, I know they're really going to be in the game. If we get back from warm-ups and I still see guys laughing and joking, it always makes me think that maybe they're not ready. It was good (Sunday). We were all pretty quiet and focused before the game.
I always know that I'm going to have a good game when I get an easy basket early, and I got a wide-open layup early in the game. From then on, I got some really good looks and was able to knock them down.
After the game, the trainer took a scalpel and cut the blisters off of my feet. I have really soft feet, so they callous really bad. It's really painful, but it's only about the third time I've had to have it done all year — but still it's not a fun experience.
There were a lot of fans waiting for us on our way to the bus. So we posed for pictures and signed autographs, which is pretty fun. I mean, it's not one of those things where if I was sitting on my couch I would say, 'I want to go outside and sign autographs.' But I also realize that next year, or in four or five years, nobody will care one bit whether they get my autograph or not.
(Editor's note: This is the first of a weekly series that will continue throughout the men's basketball season.)
Pace car involved in crash at Daytona race
The Associated Press
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — In Days of Thunder, the Tom Cruise movie about stock car racing, a crew chief, whose youthful driver has hit just about everything on the track, radios his protege with the field slowed by caution.
"Hit the pace car!" screams an agitated Harry Hogg — played by Robert Duval.
Joe Cooksev did.
The Cruise character, hotshot rookie Cole Trickle, didn't succeed.
And because of it, he has earned a place in Daytona lore.
"This might be the first time in the history of racing that the pace car's been wiped out in an accident," he said Sunday. "It was a pretty good lick, right square in the rear end."
Square enough to send ARCA pace car driver Jack Wallace from
Daytona International Speedway to the hospital — for a pain in the neck.
But that's not a description of Cooksey, a 33-year-old driver from Centralia, Ill., who until that bizarre moment in the 59th lap of the FirstPlus Financial 200 didn't hit anything at speeds approaching 190 mph. He said a mix-up while the pace car slowed the field left him nowhere to a go.
" ... He just slowed down or stopped, " Cooksey said. "I tried to stop, but I couldn't miss him.
"I'm sorry that it happened. I hate to see people who are not racing to be involved in a wreck."
A passenger in the pace car, NASCAR pace car driver Buster Auton, escaped uninjured. He was released from Halifax Medical Center.
A crowd of 60,000 that saw the pace car mishap,very nearly witnessed history in the event,the
NASCAR
first sanctioned stock car race this year at DIS. Shawna Robinson closed with a rush in an attempt to become the first female stock car driver to win on the banks of Daytona.
When she came up a few car-lengths short, there was a groan from a crowd enlivened by women applauding and waving over the final 16 laps as Robinson completed her powerful run from fifth to second.
"We absolutely could have won, no question about it," Robinson said. "We just didn't have enough laps."
Journeyman Bobby Gerhart, a winner for the first time in 14 years of ARCA racing, didn't think it mattered.
"I could put the car high, I could put the car low, I could run on the apron," he said. "I don't think she could have passed me."
Robinson, from Des Moines, Iowa,
never got the chance. After she
smoked off all the other contenders
to move right up to Gerhart's
bumper, a final caution ended the
suspense with two laps remaining.
"When I got around the third-place car and got up to Bobby Hamilton Jr., I knew there was no question I could win," she said. "We ran out of time."
"When the yellow came out, they said, 'Go get him,' but I had already backed off so much that I lost so much momentum."
Although she lost the drag race back to the line, Robinson matched the best finish by a woman in Daytona's 41 years. Robinson also wound up third when Karen Schulz finished second in NASCAR Dash series race in 1988.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Nebraska coach Danny Nee has a message for his critics:
The Associated Press
Nee: Tries to get respect for basketball in a football state.
Nee is committed to Nebraska despite criticism from all sides
"I'm a helluva lot tougher than they think."
While getting his team to adjust to the early departure of All-Big 12 point guard Tyronn Lue. Nee has been catching a lot of heat. But now, with senior center Ven s on Hamilton playing about
BARRON RODRIGUEZ
as well as anyone in the conference, the 'Huskers have won seven of their last eight and defeated three ranked teams in 17 days.
But will that satisfy fans who sometimes seem so impatient with their coach of 13 years?
"Within the coaches, he has a great deal of respect," said Roy Williams, whose Kansas team vaulted back into The Associated Press Top 25 at No. 24 this week after a one-week absence.
"I feel for him sometimes because I don't think he gets enough respect from people in Nebraska," Williams said Monday. "He's more highly respected around the league than he is at home and that's a sad situation."
Nee has become philosophical about the lack of enthusiasm from a state where football is king.
think it's fair, I don't think it's just. I don't think it's factual," he said. "You stay somewhere 13 years, you're going to get criticized. But we think we're doing a good job, and we're going to stay and see what happens. I'm committed to Nebraska. My family likes living here."
Nee may suffer in the inevitable comparison with Tom Osborne, who won national championships and established himself as one of the nation's greatest football coaches during a 25-year career at Nebraska.
"The criticism, I just don't
"I don't think they can get a better coach who complement Tom better than I did." Nee said. "I think my fit is perfect. They could look at a million guys, and I don't think they could get ... as good a fit ... and who could complement our great football program. But when you compare yourself to Tom Osborne ... I think he's going to go down with the Knute Rocknes and Bear Bryants."
One team that's really having trouble is Baylor. But despite their 0-10 Big 12 mark, coach Harry Miller has detected no evidence of giving up.
"We have moments in games where people come at us really hard and have those big runs." Miller said. "They'll make a 16-4 run. But you look at the rest of the game and we're very competitive. And we have a tendency to finish strong."
"Our guys are still having a lot of fun in practice. You don't see anybody gold-bricking. That's what you look at. When guys give up, they give up in practice
The tipoff to his players' attitudes is their hustle in practice, Miller said.
and that hasn't happened."
Also not giving up is Oklahoma State's Adrian Peterson, the preseason choice as Big 12 player of the year who ran into a terrible midseason slump. He seems to have snapped out of it, however, after totaling 40 points last week against Oklahoma and Iowa State.

crowd him."
Being the center of all the preseason hype didn't bother the 6-foot-4 senior guard as much as being the center of attention of every defense, said coach Eddie Sutton.
Sutton said Peterson also might be suffering from something he sees going on everywhere.
"You're a marked man by every team you play," Sutton said. "It seemed like to me the other teams were always putting their top defensive per-
Williams: Nee is valued by coaches in the leauce.
"There's a lot of hand checking allowed off the ball." Suts
ton said. "For instance, Peterson comes off a screen and people are bumping. And we may do the same thing. But that sometimes really restricts a scorer, if somebody is allowed to hand-check him, and we've seen a lot of that."
"It's something nationally the rules committee needs to take a look at."
Sutton said it's not happening just in the Big 12.

Home run ball buyer revealed
NEW YORK — Saying he was a "psycho fan" and a "sports geek," Spawn comic book creator Todd McFarlane revealed Monday he was the anonymous bidder who paid more than $3 million for Mark McGwire's 70th run ball.
The Associated Press
'Psycho fan' spends more than $3 million
"It was a mixture of business, charity and self indulgence to the ninth degree," he said of the decision to buy the ball.
McFarlane, who also has a company that makes action figures, said the timing of his announcement was tied to the yearly Toy Fair in New York.
McFarlane, a 37-year-old Canadian who lives in Tempe, Ariz., is a minority investor in the NHL's Edmonton Oilers.
He said he would like to allow the Hall of Fame to show the ball at times, would make it available to
charities to raise money and would let individual major league teams display it.
"I'd like to be able to take 20 swings in every major league ballpark," he said during a news conference.
McFarlane said purchasing the ball for $3,005,000 was cheaper than buying a sports team. He mentioned the proposed $800 million sale of the Washington Redskins.
The price?
"The way I look at it, I'm up $799 million bucks." he said.
In all, McFarlane bought nine home run balls hit by McGwire and Sammy Sosa, including McGwire's first, 63rd, 67th, 68th and 69th, and Sosa's 33rd (his record 20th in June), 61st and 66th.
McFarlane bought the ball at an auction Jan. 12, paying $2.7 million to Philip Ozersky, a research scientist at Washington University who caught the ball Sept. 27 at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. Guernsey's auction house got an additional $305,000 as its commission.
Sosa's final home run of the sea
son. No. 66, cost McFarlane $172,500.
All the others he bought at the auction cost less than $20,000 each.
McFarlane outbid Irwin Sternberg, the president of the neckwear firm Stonehenge Ltd., for No. 70. Sternberg stopped at $2.6 million; McFarlane said $2.9 million was as high as he was willing to go.
The group of balls will be called "The McFarlane Collection."
"Ibew my life savings on this," McFarlane said. "I'm not Donald Trump. I don't have a lot of cash."
CAMPING CREEK
McGwire; Fan has a collection of his homer run balls.
"Given that I name all my corporations
after myself, I'll name it after myself," he said. "Better than the 'Guy Who Has More Money Than Brains Collection."
Kansas lawmakers, fans honor Brett
The Associated Press
Gov. Bill Graves led the tribute during a joint session of the Legislature, as the state poured accolades on the Kansas City sports icon for his recent election to the hall in his first year of eligibility.
TOPEKA — Kansas leaders, lawmakers and just plain fans paid tribute Monday to Hall of Fame baseball star George Brett, lauding him as an adopted son whose playing career, charitable work and character have enhanced the state's image.
Graves referred to Brett as "one of our adopted Kansans who has chosen to live in our state, whose wife, Leslie, is a Kansan (from Wichita), and who has chosen to raise his three sons in Kansas."
PETER WILSON
Graves, who once attended a fantasy baseball camp conducted by Brett, told him that being voted into the Hall of Fame, "means you will forever be recognized ... among the greatest players who ever played the game."
"Frankly, I can live anywhere in the country I want to live, and I'm
Graves: Brett has enhanced Kansas' image.
still living in Kansas," Brett said in response.
Brett received three standing ovations during the joint session and brought down the house when he alluded to Graves' 3-year-old daughter, Katie.
"If his daughter wants a Kansan, she's got the pick of my three boys," Brett said.
Brett, whose celebrity golf tournaments in Kansas City and Wichita have raised $660,000 for research trying to fine a cause and cure for Lou Gehrig's disease, said the big difference between suburban Los Angeles and Kansas was the charitable attitude of people.
Brett is a native of El Segundo, Calif., a small coastal suburb west of Los Angeles and adjacent on the south to Los Angeles International Airport.
"The one thing I've learned about our Midwestern lifestyle is we give back," he said.
"There are two things bad about living in Kansas City: there's no ocean, and it's colder than hell in the winter. But other than that, it's fantastic."
Also paying tribute to Brett was University of Kansas English Professor James Carothers, who teaches a course titled, "The Literature of Baseball."
Carothers said Brett combined determination, courage and performance, a player who "hit hard, ran hard and played hard — a gamer. George Brett was a hero as much off the field as on the field."
Brett is 13th on the career hits list with 3,154 and was a 13-time All-Star. The third baseman hit .305 in a 21-year career soent entirely with the Rovals.
He also is the only player to achieve 3,000 hits, 300 home runs, 100 triples, 600 doubles and 200 stolen bases.
He won three American League batting championships, including when he hit .390 in 1980. That was the year he threatened to become the first major leaguer to hit .400 since Ted Williams in 1941.

KU journalism professor dies at age 62
John Ginn loses battle against lung cancer
By Chris Hopkins
Konson staff writer
"The manner in which one endures what must be endured is more important than the thing that must be endured."
Dean Acheson
That was the quotation that journalism professor John Ginn had posted outside his office, and those were the words by which his colleagues and students said he lived.
Gim died at 3:50 p.m. yesterday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital, 325 Main St., two days after being admitted. He died of complications of lung cancer at the age of 62.
Carol Holstead, associate professor of journal
ism. read Acheson's quotation yesterday.
"I think it embodies the way he perceived his illness," she said. "He was a good man. Sort of comforting to know he felt that way."
Ginn had been an active member of the Lawrence community since he arrived at the University in 1992 as the first Knight Distinguished Professor of Journalism at the University of Kansas.
Ginn helped to create Leadership Lawrence and was a member of the initial Lied Center Creation Board.
Leadership Lawrence was created to identify potential leaders in the Lawrence community, to train them and to help them understand leadership issues.
Ginn remained on the Lied Center board until his death.
Jaqueline Davis, director of the Lied Center, said Ginn had been essential to the performing art center's work.
"He understood and loved the Lied Center and its programs," she said.
Ginn had tried to resign from the board when he decided to focus more time on his chemotherapy treatment, but Davis wouldn't let him, telling him that he would get better.
1856-1940
It was one of the few obligations that Ginn tried to drop. James Gentry, dean of the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, said Ginn had taught classes through last week.
Gwen Olsen, Fall 1998 KU graduate and Ginn's teaching assistant last semester, said Ginn was extremely devoted to teaching.
Ginn: Was Knight Distinguished Professor of Journalism.
"He had me send him papers to grade in the Mayo Clinic," she said.

Malcolm Gibson, assistant professor of journalism, said Ginn had fought a long bout with lung cancer.
"One of the people I came to rely on, before and after I came here, was John Ginn," Gibson said.
Another member of the school with whom Ginn was close was Tom Eblen, general manager of The University Daily Kansan. They both attended the University of Missouri in the 1950s.
"John was one of those people who you could just look at and know he would be successful," he said.
Ginn arrived at the University in 1992 after spending 17 years, from 1974 to 1991, as president and publisher of the Anderson Independent Mail in Anderson. S.C.
William Mitchell, senior vice president and editor of the Independent-Mail, was hired by Ginn in 1989.
"John Ginn was a big part of so much of the progress that Anderson made during the '70s and '80s," he said. "He helped build consensus to support major improvements in our public schools, our public hospital and our community as a whole. He was, above all, a journalist with high standards of ethics and integrity."
Gim recently helped his alma mater get funding for a new journalism building.
After graduation, he worked for the Charlotte Observer in North Carolina, the Kingsport Times News in Tennessee, and in the public relations department of Celanese Corporation. In 1972, he received his master's degree in business from Harvard University.
Ginn is survived by three grandchildren and three sons, Jack, Mark and Stan Ginn. Dianne Kelley Ginn, his ex-wife, returned to Lawrence in December to help take care of Ginn during his illness.
New garage may require special pass
Memorial services have not been announced.

Kansan staff writer
Students may need more than a yellow permit to park in the parking garage that will be constructed north of the Kansas Union.
Construction is scheduled to begin in mid to late May, and the garage should be ready for use in fall 2000, said Rodger Oroke, director of parking and public safety, and utilities management.
The parking department has not yet finalized space allotment for the $10,025 million project that is currently being designed. This spring, the department will consider how many of the estimated 818 spaces to allot to students, faculty and staff with permits and to metered parking.
Don Kearns, director of parking services, said parking in the garage would be for faculty, staff and students, but he would not comment on how many spaces would be allotted for students.
Kearns said students, faculty and staff would have to purchase a separate parking permit — similar to the permit used to park in the garage by Allen Fieldhouse — to park in the new garage, but he would not say how much the permit would cost.
Oroké said that permit parking would not generate sufficient funds to finance the garage. He said the University would have to take into account people who preferred metered parking, permit holders and visitors.
Kearns said the University planned to expand student parking by changing the metered spaces in the parking lots north of the Spencer Art Museum and in the lot by Memorial Stadium to student and faculty permit parking.
"We have to look at the mix and determine what will be the most workable alternative which will nav for the facility." Oroke said.

Oscar list is page in history
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
This year's Oscar nominations are packed with history.
Nominees for Best Picture include Elizabeth, Life is Beautiful, Saving Private Ryan, Shakespeare in Love and The Thin Red Line - a group of films that all recreated historical events to some degree.

Shakespeare in Love couldn't quite sink Titanic's record of 14 Oscar nominations last year, but with 13, the film topped the early favorite, Saving Private Ryan, which received 11 nominations.
Also to many critics' surprise, the World War II movie The Thin Red Line picked up seven nominations, signaling a triumphant return to the movies for director Terrence Malick, who hadn't made a film in two decades.
Elizabeth also picked up seven nominations.
The Italian film Life is Beautiful became the first movie in three decades to be nominated for both Best Picture and Best Foreign Language Film.
John Tibbetts, assistant professor of theater and film, said he was not completely satisfied with the academy's choices.
"It's a disgrace that The Truman Show didn't get a Best Picture nod," Tibbets
Tibbetts said many Elizabethan experts said the film didn't jive with historical facts.
said. "Nominating Elizabeth is astonishing, too. I thought it was a badly botched piece of history."
"The movie made little sense as a story
except for the last 15 minutes, which was wonderful," he said. "Perhaps that was why it was nominated."

University hires KC firm to update landscape, signs
Decision makers at the University of Kansas aren't counting on beauty being in the eye of the beholder.
"When you're talking to alumni, their first impulse almost always is that KU is a beautiful place," Chancellor Robert Hemenway said. "It's almost like they have a videotape that plays in their minds."
They are preparing to spend millions of dollars on a campus landscape plan to ensure the University stays as attractive as conventional wisdom says it is.
But the University has to keep up appearances, he said.
"If you don't maintain beauty and try to enhance appear ance, it ends up deteriorating pretty fast," Hemenway said. "Given the financial constraints of the '70s and '80s, I don't think we gave it as much attention as we could have."
Before workers can start planting trees and shrubs, adding lights and updating signs on campus, they need a plan. That's where contractor Jeffrey Bruce comes in.
The University is paying Bruce's landscape architect and planning firm, Jeffrey L. Bruce & Co., $180,000 to develop a landscape strategy, said University architect Warren Corman. Bruce is based in Kansas City, Mo.
"We're excited about restoring and enhancing the legacy of the campus." Bruce said.
Bruce said he would work with the University to assess the existing conditions of the campus landscape and identify opportunities for improvement.
nstrm also will analyze the University's network of signs. Both Corman and Hemenway said the signs on campus were inadequate and outdated.
Another central facet of the plan is enhancing Jayhawk Boulevard in terms of safety and appearance.
Hemenway said vehicle access during peak hours could be restricted to reduce traffic congestion.
"We want to honor the traditional pedestrian orientation of the Boulevard," he said.
Until Bruce's plan is completed, there is no way to know how much the beautification project will cost, but administrators are estimating $3 million.
"That's kind of a wild guess," Corman said. "It might be more. It probably won't be less. We'll know a lot more in a few months."
Bruce's plan should be completed by midsummer.
Landscape and architecture ideas to update Jayhawk Boulevard include outdoor furnishings, new lights and accented pedestrian walkways. The proposal was part of Chancellor Robert Hemenway's 1997 Campus Plan. Contributed illustration
Hemenway said some state funds would go toward the project but that he planned to encourage people to give private donations.

Speech calls for society to help African Americans

In his talk, however, Muhammad concentrated on the history of spiritual African-American leadership in the figure of Elijah Muhammad, the late Nation of Islam leader. Muhammad said

about the history of economic, social and spiritual African-American leadership.
But 400 years of slavery and servitude had stripped the African Americans of that power. David Muhammad said,
He said that society had not realized that if African Americans wanted to improve their conditions, they needed society's help.

A Lawrence man was arrested yesterday afternoon in connection with a robbery Friday at the First State Bank & Trust, 609 Vermont St., Lt. David Cobb of the Lawrence Police Department said.
The man reportedly was unarmed and wearing a ski mask when he walked into the bank and demanded cash.
The man was arrested in 400 block of North Street. He also was charged with possession of marijuana with the intent to sell, Cobb said.
drug dealers busted at Jayhawk Motel room
Two men were arrested early Monday for selling crack cocaine out of a room at the Jayhawk Motel, 1004 N. Third St., said Kenneth Massey, Douglas County undersheriff.
Officers from the Drug Enforcement Unit had been watching the men for four days. The men stayed at the Jayhawk Motel for two days before their arrest.
The unit obtained a search warrant after an undercover officer purchased drugs from the men.

All three drivers were treated for minor injuries.
Burned club could offer some service by March
Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way, which was destroyed by a fire Thursday, could be reopened partially for service within a month, owner Richard Sells said.
Sells said it was possible that the pool and a room with free weights and cardio equipment could be available to members as soon as city officials gave their approval and the new equip ment arrived.
Sells said he would not bill members while the club was closed. Members who already have paid will retain the time they had left on their membership as of Feb. 5.
"If everything goes as planned, the entire club could possibly be open as soon as June 1," he said.
Sells said membership information was not lost in the fire because he kept a backup of the club's computer system at home.
For members who will leave town before the club reopens, he said he would do what he could to refund their money. He said these people should send a letter explaining their situation to 213 Glenview Dr., Lawrence, KS 66049.
Rich Barr, fire marshal with the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department, said the cause of the fire had not been determined.

Senate begins debate about Clinton's future
NATION
WASHINGTON — The Senate shut its doors yesterday to debate its verdict on the impeachment of President Bill Clinton
One Republican said the outcome was so evident that a bipartisan acquittal was possible by the end of the week for the second president in history to be put on trial for his 'ob.
After a month and a day spent listening in silence to opposing legal arguments, senators began their private deliberations in midafternoon yesterday in a Senate chamber cleared of House prosecutors, presidential lawyers and gallery spectators.
Clinton stands accused of perjury and obstruction of justice in his efforts to conceal his affair with Monica Lewinsky.
Senators spoke from a lectern in the well of the Senate as the deliberations unfolded, according to congressional officials.
Under Senate rules, lawmakers may deliberate for up to 25 hours, with 15 minutes allotted to each senator to speak.
Republicans question education proposal
WASHINGTON — President Bill Clinton's idea for cutting federal funds for those schools that don't set and meet standards for their students and teachers is raising charges that he would have Washington intrude into state and local affairs.
Along with shoring up Social Security, Clinton's education proposals are key to the administration's plans to reassert itself when the impeachment process has run its course. But some Republicans already are criticizing his approach to school accountability.
Republican National Committee spokesman Mike Collins said the administration was threatening to use education money as a cadgel so that Clinton could be the superintendent of schools for the United States.
Administration officials, sensitive to such attacks, insist that they are willing to let the schools decide how to end such practices as social promotion and improve teacher qualifications.

Union garage may not offer student spots
Continued from page 1A
Orok said the University wanted to provide maximum service to the student population but that the garage would have to be based on multiple types of use like the garage by Allen Fieldhouse.
"With only about 800 spaces, we're not going to take care of the total demand," Oroke said. "But in combination with the art museum lots, it will certainly ease the burden considerably."
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said he would soon present a resolution to Senate requesting that one-third to one-half of the estimated 818 parking spots in the garage be allotted for student permit use.
"Our goal is to get student spaces in the garage that are not already slated to be there," he said.
Yoder said he wanted students to have access to at least 80 percent of the garage, either through permit or meter.
Glenn Prescott, Parking Board chairman, said the garage should serve the entire University and not be dominated by any specific group but that students should get spaces.
"The sentiment of the Parking Board is that there is going to be a fair allotment to faculty and students," he said.
Luke Pfannenstiel, All Scholarship Hall Council senator, said he was not sure how cooperative the University would be in giving students spaces in the garage.
"Personally, I think the garage should be mostly student spaces," he said.
George Butler and Associates, an architectural firm based in Lenexa, will submit its designs for the garage to the University March 4.
After reviewing them, the University will send the designs to the state printer by March 25. The University plans to secure a bid for the project by April 15.

Students staying in basement see college life in a new light

It's 6:30 p.m., and Sergio Guerra is fixing dinner for his roommates.
The menu consists of breaded turkey, steamed broccoli, rice and a plate full of tomatoes and limes.

Although the food preparation seems to be going well, Guerra has another task to consider: He also must cook up a topic of discussion for the required post-meal conversation.
"One concern that I had was that you had to be a Christian to live here," Sapienza said. "The ECM is really good about not forcing you into beliefs."

Creationism vs. evolutionism, categorizing other people and pornography have been on the burner recently.
Although the basement is sponsored by a Christian organization, residents do not necessarily have to be Christian. Chenoa Simmons, a Wichita senior who has lived in the basement for more than a year and a half, said she thought the program was fairly progressive.
"I don't call myself a Christian," she said, sitting in the living room with the rest of her roommates. "It's more of a community coming together to intellectually discuss spiritual matters, whatever your path may be."

Guerrera lives cooperatively with four others in the basement of the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building, 1204 Oread Ave., in a setting conducive to deep talks and group learning.
Although the living quarters are located beneath a place where church services and meetings take place every day, the roommates said the activities — which have ranged from lesbian weddings to Sunday Menonite church services — have never been too large of a distraction.
Every Monday night the group gathers at 7:15 p.m. to eat a meal together. The roommates take turns preparing the food and choosing a topic of discussion.
Reflecting on the basement lifestyle with her roommates, Jenny Pramuk, San Carlos, Calif., graduate student, was positive.
The guidelines also say that residents must have a weekly community meal, "which will include table worship and items of sharing, fellowship and house business ... for the purpose of group building, conflict resolution, spiritual formation and group interaction."
"We have discussions pretty much every night," Sanienza said.
Stephanie Sapienza, Stilwell senior, said living in the basement provided an excellent format for discussion among college students because often college classes were so large that meaningful debate was impossible.

KING
HUSSEIN
PEACE IN THE MID EAST
Seth Jaw

Seth Jones / KANSAN
Editorial
Delicate political situation begs for smooth transition of power
An influential voice in international politics, King Hussein of Jordan evolved during his 46-year reign from a mere military figurehead to a peace-making diplomat.
And now that voice has been silenced, Hussein's long struggle with cancer ended Sunday after months of chemotherapy and a last resort bone-marrow transplant failed to save him. He was 63.
After inheriting Jordan's throne at age 17, Hussein seemed to lack a bright future. Other Arab heads of state lacked any confidence in his ability to rule — as did some of Jordan's citizens. In the first decade of Hussein's rule, he had to fend off two coup attempts.
Though Hussein had been in the United States' good graces in recent years, he was a foe at first. Bowing to anti-Iraeli
King Hussein leaves legacy of peacemaking for successor, Jordanians, Middle East.
sentiments within his own country, Hussein supported Egypt in that country's Six-Day War with Israel in 1967. Israel, traditionally an American ally since Israel's formation in 1948, defeated the Jordan-backed Egyptian forces.
A proven survivor, Hussein continued to serve as an activist for Arab interests, while earning the respect and friendship of several Western leaders. Although Hussein was excluded from many of the Middle East peace negotiations that began in the '70s, he evolved into a figure trusted by both Arab, European and American leaders. Most
recently, Hussein participated in last year's Wye River peace negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians.
Unfortunately, Hussein did not live long enough to see the harmonious coexistence for which he had worked. Though much progress has been made, Saddam Hussein's regime in Iraq and fundamentalist Islamic extremists in Iran threaten to throw the region back into chaos. It is in the West's interests to see that the transition of power in Jordan is carried out smoothly.
King Hussein's long tenure as ruler of such a pivotal nation in the volatile Middle East, rocky as it was, eventually contributed to an atmosphere of peacemaking. It is imperative that Hussein's son and successor, King Abdullah, continue to follow the road his father paved.

Diversity issue provides reason for rejoicing
re another editorial and another meeting about whether KU students should be required to take a diversity course. It boggles the mind that we do not see the forest for the trees. Our country is changing. It is our obligation toward our students to prepare them for the next century.
Ninety percent of all managers have grown up in an environment that is similar to them. The same probably goes for University faculty and most of our students. Most of us know little about people from other racial, ethnic, religious, etc. backgrounds. How are we to learn to benefit from one another's expertise, experiences and novel ideas when we have no idea about what these are?
Last week, we could have watched "I'll Make Me a World" on public television — a series about the history of African American art in this country. The talents that were shown were inspirational. People from other backgrounds have similarly enriching histories that we should know about. And we squabble if our students should be required to learn about a few of them?
This is not about doing minorities the favor of including their studies into the curriculum.
This is about our own enriched educations. It's about having the benefits of learning about others' thoughts and ideas. Only then can we integrate all of these to the betterment of the nation.
self."
Finally, this is not a Lawrence, or Midwest or national issue. This is a global issue because many other countries also are struggling with learning about their own diversities. Potentially, we as a country could have the advantage because our population has consisted of more diversity than most other countries. Let our students benefit from this lucky circumstance.
As James Baldwin expressed it in the '50s: "This is not a matter of saving the natives. This is a matter of saving one-
The issue here is to rejoice in the diversity of humankind, to learn to love and respect one another and to understand that learning about differences can be a joyful experience. Now — not many more editorials and discussions and definitions later.

Modern task forces lack urgency, workable ideas
What do these have in common? These are all problems or issues that have task forces called to address them.
PETER HUGHSON
This recent spate of task forces on campus and nationwide has left me wondering how long the term has been in circulation. And how did society function in pre-task force days?
Duane
Wagler
opinion@tansan.com
According to the Random House dictionary.
the term originated in the Navy during the 1940s and is defined as "a group or committee, usually of experts or specialists, formed for analyzing, investigating or solving a specific problem."
The practical side of me likes the idea of a task force. See a problem, gather the gurus, have a free exchange of ideas and come up with a creative solution. Democracy in action.
Then again, I suspect many task forces today are a vehicle for bureaucracy to wade into terrain in which it has no business.
Tony Blair's early days as British prime minister provide an example. According to an August 1997 New Statesman article by Caroline Daniel, Blair's government set up more than 50 task forces, advisory groups and reviews in the first 100 days after the 1996 election. Even hedgerows and soccer did not escape the all-encompassing task-net.
Daniel suggests that the reason behind the flurry of Blair's task forces was to give the people a sense that the government placed a premium on governing. After years of a more detached government under prime
ministers Margaret Thatcher and John Major, citizens welcomed a government that promised immediate action.
What's missing from Blair's task forces is a sense of urgency and vision. Is the problem worth addressing, and is a solution achievable?
Perhaps we can take a few lessons from one of the more effective task forces in U.S. history. The Constitutional Convention, called during the summer of 1787 in Philadelphia, brought together 55 delegates to hammer out a document to unite a fledgling country. This task force designated a leader immediately, encouraged input from those assembled and had the impetus to see that a document emerged after four months of discussion.
Not everyone at the convention liked the idea of a national government. But enough of the delegates realized that the old system needed revamping, and a creative solution arose from the convention. The sense of urgency to keep the nation intact, along with a vision of what this nation could become, kept this task force from losing its focus.
Task forces such as the Constitutional Convention move beyond simply analyzing and investigating problems to offering solutions. Although examining problems can add much-needed context, leaders of task forces provide an important function by coaxing out workable solutions. All the technical explanations of the Y2K bug and its effects mean little, for example, without leaders offering a reasonable solution in the end.
Let's use the 212-year-old template for task forces rather than Britain's recent example. We might not be able to draft a first-class Constitution, but we can do better than discussing soccer.

Dogs carry with them fun, playfulness and distraction. Offering simplicities such as innocence, trust and loyalty, they captivate us humans and demand nothing in return but a silly little thing called affection.
Unfortunately, there is another side of dogs that we must be cautious of. A dark and undeniably distasteful side. Dogs crap whenever they please, wherever they please. Whether it be right in the middle of a sidewalk, halfway up a flight of stairs, on a passerby's foot, on a tree, on a car, on a bike, on a teacher, dogs exercise little discretion when relieving themselves.
"Oh, my backpack, I just set it in a pile of. Can you believe this?"
These are the typical expressions, or rather signs, that dogs are back on campus. For the most part, despite these disgusted responses, their arrival on campus actually is an exciting time.
As we all know, this is merely an inevitable facet of nature. And because of this, we must not go so far as to label dogs' lack of better judgment as a deliberate, evil thing. Truly, it is not the animals' fault.
However, I will tell you this. I've seen too many good men and women, domesticated dog lovers alike, lunge forward, unsuspectingly, into the brown abyss and come out cursing and denouncing their admiration toward the panting varmints. This is a sad thing. Like I said earlier, dogs are playful and innocent. Ideally, they should be loved, not loathed.
It took me some time to come to this conclusion. I used to be a certified dog despisher. But I have concluded that dogs are faultless, in almost every respect—including the random soiling of campus.
Dogs were not responsible for certain traumatic encounters during my youth, encounters that initially fed my disaffection toward them. It was the humans who domesticated them. It was the humans who made these encounters less-than-memorable. Humans encouraged the dogs to chase me, bite me or just plain scare me as I walked down the sidewalk, jumped a fence or traversed a neighbor's backyard.
For example, I was walking to a friend's house one day — I was little, impressionable, scared of just about everything and everyone, including my own dogs at home — when I walked by an old guy and his dog. I remember the sinister grin on the old man's face, although at the time I did not quite understand it.
"That's easy for you to say, Perryman, you didn't see your best friend lose a foot on his way to Biology 901 — The Study of Animal Feces. It was Lawrence, '95. I was there. I saw the look on his face when he turned around and lifted his foot to confirm what we already knew. The brown shrapnel from the mine splattered and smeared across his foot. Then I looked down. I, too, had stepped on a mine. I cried and swore that I would never forgive another dog for the events that unfolded that day."
As for the dog, well, it seemed more to be smiling, you know, playfully. I walked on and all of the sudden the old man unclasped the leash from the animal's collar. What was that? The dog chased after me. When he finally caught up to me he rammed his nose into my groin and tossed me aside a rag doll named Susie. I laid there humiliated and terrified, but that old guy never said a word to retrieve his dog.
For those of you who are jaded, such as this poor, imaginary unfortunate, I have only one thing to say:
I know what some of you are thinking:
Thus, I am warning all of you ahead of time to be on the look out for the inevitable. The dogs are going to be here soon and they are going to place their landmines. It is up to us navigate through the field, safely, cleanly, so that when we come to the top of the stairs outside of Wescoe Hall or Watson Library, or wherever, we can be happy. We can love and pet a dog, rather than agitatedly question his or her existence.
Unfortunately, just as we must accept that dogs often perform their duties directly in our paths, we also must accept that all owners will not find some out-of-the-way, fecal paradise where they can take their animals.
Back then, I was upset because I thought the dog was going to eat me. I was upset that I couldn't go to my friend's house because I had to go home and change my shorts. But now, I understand that it was the old man's fault. It was the human who refused to restrain the dog. Just as it is the human who refuses to insist that his or her dogs relieve themselves at some discreet location.
I have no pity to offer. Frankly, I don't care where the dogs lay their goods. If I step in a pile, so be it. However, if I see you step in a pile, I'm probably going to laugh uncontrollably. Why? You may ask. No. 1—because it's funny. No. 2—because you were warned.

Senate considers requests for funds
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Student groups are rushing to secure some of the $1.2 million of Student Senate funds early in the semester.
Senate will consider four bills requesting funds for student group activities in committee meetings beginning at 6 p.m. tonight at various rooms in the Kansas Union.
Finance and University Affairs committees will review a bill requesting $9,000 to help finance the KU Student Lecture Series.
Cody Simms, liberal arts and sciences senator, said Student Union Activities hoped to invite former British Prime Minister John Major or former White House Press Secretary Mike McCurry to speak at Allen Fieldhouse in April.
He said that SUA had not secured either speaker and that it also was considering other options.
"We just want to make sure we
have money allocated for the lecture series before Senate runs out of money. Simms said.

Mall lease options lifted
Sitting in its temporary meeting space inside the Riverfront Factory Outlets mall, the Lawrence City Commission made a decision last night that would affect how the building was used in the future.
By Heather Woodward
Kansan staff writer
The future owners of the building, Riverfront L.L.C., 411 N. Iowa St., requested that the commission remove existing lease restrictions that required the mall to house only retail space. Riverfront L.L.C. would be able to sign new tenants without seeking the commission's approval.
The commission made an exception to the retail-only restriction when it allowed Norrel Services to move into the mall's basement.
"I see the future of the mall as having a retail component to it," said William Newsome, a member of Riverfront L.L.C. "We want there to be as much retail as the city of Lawrence will support, but it's hard to on a tenant-to-tenant basis who will be here."
Riverfront L.L.C. is purchasing the Riverfront Mall from Chelsea GCA Realty, which is based in New Jersey. Newswise said he expected the sale to close within the next 30 days.
"In 1989, when the ground lease was written, the Riverfront was intended to be an outlet mall," Newsome said. "The world has changed a little since then. We still want this this to be a viable retail property, but we may be signing office contracts."
The commission's amendment prohibits the use of the building for either sexually-oriented entertainment or gambling uses.
The commission also amended the lease so that Riverfront L.L.C. would not have to pay rent for the land where the BarbWire Building, 8 E. Sixth St., sits. The lease now is based on square footage that includes the BarbWire Building land.
Dave Corliss, director of legal services, said the city owned the land. The original lease had required Chelsea to pay rent on the land that the BarbWire Building sits on.
"It's going to be more of a place for families and adults to come and enjoy the river," Elwell said. "The interior does not tend itself to a lot of people who lack good manners."
Mike Elwell, who is leasing the BarbWire Building from the city, is developing the building into a multi-use venue that will include a restaurant, bar and stage downstairs and coffee shops and art galleries upstairs. Elwell said there also would be a fountain and a terrace overlooking the river on the upper level.
Elwell has been working on plans for the BarbWire

Both requests by Riverfront L.L.C. were approved but still are subject to report from Mayor Marty Kennedy to ensure that the city's interests are considered with respect to the BarbWire Building. Newsome said things such as fire exits and utilities still were being discussed.
"Because of the proximity of the two buildings, the city has asked us to work through those things with the tenant," Newsome said. "That's what we're doing."

Senior citizens hope for changes
Difficult enrollment common complaint
By Nadia Mustata
Kansan staff writer
Some senior citizens are requesting that the University of Kansas make it easier for them to access student services.
Melinda Carden, coordinator of the Center for Community Outreach intergenerational program and Lenexa senior, said there were about 80 senior citizens enrolled at the University. She said she was trying to encourage the University to offer programs and services aimed at senior citizens.
"I'm trying to get a commitment from the people in power and then get the message out," Carden said.
Most senior citizens at the University are non-degree seeking students who audit classes, which means they are technically enrolled but do not pay tuition because they do not receive academic credit.
According to Board of Regents regulations, individuals who are more than 60 years old do not have to pay student fees and are not classified as students.
The Student Senate Transportation Board passed a senior citizen bus pass discount two weeks ago
Nicole Skalla, transportation coordinator and Salina junior, said some senior citizens did not have any means of transportation and did not want to pay the full bus pass prices.
"Most senior citizens are on fixed incomes," she said. "So budgeting for a bus pass could be quite expensive."
Carden said because they were not classified as students, senior citizens were forced to pay more than other students for a bus pass.
She said it was an obstacle that was denying some senior citizens access to the University because they could not walk long distances and did not have cars.
The board reduced the cost of a bus pass for senior citizens from the non-student price of $150 a year to $90.
"We eliminated a barrier standing in the path of senior citizens wanting to audit classes without costing much for the University," Carden said. "And they're not taking up much space or time for the bus drivers."
Carden said she recently ensured that senior citizens could get the new KUIDs and e-mail accounts.
She also is trying to get the University to expand community
enrollment. Non-degree seeking students such as senior citizens, high school students and students' spouses now have only one hour on one day to enroll at the beginning of the semester.
Carden said the limited enrollment time prevented many senior citizens from enrolling.
Mary Remus, senior citizen and Phi Delta Theta house mother, said she wanted to take classes this semester but could not attend community enrollment. She said she contacted the registrar's office but was denied her request to open community registration for more than an hour.
"I've been unhappy because KU is very unfriendly," she said. "And there is nothing in the schedule telling you how to do anything. It's utterly ridiculous."
Carden also is pushing the University to offer classes specifically designed for senior citizens such as aerobics and a class about aging and the life cycle.
"I talked to the chancellor and the registrar." Carden said. "But they have not shown any desire to get involved with that."
Carden led two orientations to inform senior citizens about how they can audit classes last semester. She will conduct three in April for individuals enrolled in summer or fall classes.

Students traveling abroad need early vaccinations
By T.J. Johnson
Kanson staff writer
Students who are traveling outside the United States for spring break need to think about getting necessary immunizations now, officials at Watkins Memorial Health Center said.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said some common immunizations that students needed to protect their health while traveling abroad could take up to one month to take effect.
Myra Strother, physician at Watkins, said students who needed immunizations should act now.
A service called Travel Care is available at Watkins to let students know about potential health risks in the country they will be visiting. If students provide their travel itineraries, the program will provide a list of which diseases they will need immunizations for.
"The more time you give us, the better off you will be," she said.
Strother said many countries still had problems that Americans did not pay attention to Strother said a recent outbreak of polio in Russia was an example of a disease Americans rarely worried about.
Strother said the best approach
for students was to make sure all of their regular required vaccinations were up to date. Students then should set up an appointment to talk to a doctor or nurse to see if there are any immunizations they need.
Rock and Strother said the most common vaccine needed for students who would be traveling to Mexico was Hepatitis A.
Hepatitis A is a virus that causes severe liver damage and infects more than 10 million people in the world every year.
Strother said because Hepatitis A was a food and water-borne illness, it was fairly easy to catch. The vaccination for Hepatitis A is easy to administer, and the person being vaccinated will be immune to the virus after just a few weeks.
"If you are traveling to Central or South America, Hepatitis A is an appropriate vaccination," Rock said.
Other diseases that can affect travelers in Mexico or Central America and can be vaccinated against include typhoid fever, tetanus and diphtheria, Strother said.
Strother said she had seen students come back to the University after traveling overseas who had contracted parasitic infections such as malaria. She said if students traveled and became ill when they returned, it was very important to see a health professional.

Students can visit Walkins Memorial Health Center or visit the Centers For Disease Control Travel Web site at www.cdc.gov/travel/index.htm to find out more about traveling and health.
Making sure all food that students eat is properly cooked, drinking only safe water, wearing bug repellent and protecting against sexually transmitted diseases could help keep students healthy while traveling abroad, Strother said.
Yellow Fever
Students who would like to find out if they need immunizations before they travel should visit Watkins.

Gay support group returns to campus
By Clay McCuistion Special to the Kansan
After a semester's absence, the Queers and Allies support group is returning to the University of Kansas today.
"This is an important service provided by Q and A and one that serves the University community as well as the broader Lawrence community," said Allen Omoto, associate professor of psychology and faculty adviser to Queers and Allies.
The group didn't meet last semester because two long-time facilitators, Katie Jones and Keith Floyd, resigned because of time and school commitments.
Queers and Allies received complaints about the lack of a support group last semester.
"It is typical for facilitators to serve for one year, so that they are no longer serving in that role is not anything unusual," said Christine Robinson, Queers and Allies director. "It was very kind of them to donate their time and expertise to the support group for as long as they did."
"Several students called me to find out when the group would be going again," Robinson said. "I was very frustrated for them that the support group was not running. I used to attend the support group when I first came to KU. It was a way for me to ease into the community here and to get a sense of what life was like for people in the Lawrence queer community."
A three-person committee consisting of Matthew Skinta, interim director of Queers and Allies, and Omoto and Pamela Gordon, faculty advisers, chose a new facilitator in January. They selected Joyce Shontz, who works as a speech pathologist in an Olathe nursing home.
"I'm definitely geared towards the helping profession," said Shontz, who hopes to pursue a master's degree in social work at the University. "Support groups were very important to me when I was coming out. It's a way I can give back something."
With Queers and Allies still searching for a second facilitator, Shontz will start the work with the support group by herself.
"I really want to make it a successful year," Shontz said. "I hope to get a lot of people attending meetings and create a place where they can come and get their needs met."
She's optimistic about the possibilities.
The location and time of today's meeting, the first of the semester, is available by calling Headquarters Counseling Center at 841-2345 or the University Information Center at 864-3506.
Community group tries KU comeback will meet tonight
By Amber Stuever
Special to the Kansan
A community service organization is trying to make a comeback at the University of Kansas this spring after making a brief appearance on campus two years ago.
Circle K, an international service club for college students, is one step above the high school service group Key Club and a step below Kiwanis service club for adults.
The group held its first meeting of the semester two weeks ago and will hold another tonight in hopes of increasing membership and planning spring projects.
The KU chapter was started by Lawrence's two Kiwanis clubs. Nationwide, there are 11,000 members on 500 campuses.
"Leapfrog since 1980"
"There's a big sense of community," said Katie Skinner, Olathe junior and president of the University's Circle K. "It's one big network."
Circle K models itself after Kiwanis, where members sometimes choose to transfer after college.
"It's not only a way of service, it's a way to get involved and meet people you'll know forever." Skinner said.
Although Circle K was formed two years ago, leadership problems caused the club to stop meeting. Melissa Stein, a Kansas State University student and Circle K lieutenant governor has been helping the University's group get on its feet again.
Stein said Circle K was a unique leadership organization for students because it encompassed a variety of community services. The group is completely student-run, so it is free to choose any type of project, ranging from work with the environment or children to visiting nursing homes and handicapped people.
Circle K members said they encouraged students interested in community service to join. The group meets at 6:30 p.m. every Wednesday at the Daisy Hill room inthe Burge Union.
"We don't focus on one particular aspect," said Megan Brening, Hays sophomore and Circle K treasurer. "We try to do more of a broad spectrum of things."

Shakespeare comedy leads in nominations
Continued from page 1A
saw three of the movies nominated for best picture and said he thought Saving Private Ryan should win.
"The movie did away with the theme of glory in war you see in old, bad World War II John Wayne films," he said.
Kylie Grater, Riley sophomore, said that she usually only watched independent films and that the best movie she had seen in the past year was Life is Beautiful.
"It's really humorous but at the same time a tragic story of love and the Holocaust," she said.
Green said he thought the films nominated were not necessarily the best films but rather the most popular.
betts said that being nominated for the Oscars could bring money and help rejuvenate the box office life of films that were fading in popularity. However, he said, Oscar nominations are not the end-all, be-all of movie making.
"My take is that every nomination is just a second guess depending on the digestion habits of the voters," Tibbett said. "Their votes can change depending on their mood or what they ate that day."

The academy picks World War II movies
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
On March 21, cynical movie buffs and celebrity worshipers once again will get their fix watching the Oscars. It's a safe bet that an actor will speak of the injustice in a Third World nation, and a large technical crew will deliver an acceptance speech that's far too long.
As for this year's nominees, it seems as if the academy has a fixation on World War II and the Elizabethans. The nominees for Best Picture are arguably all great movies, but a little diversity would be nice.
The Thin Red Line is a surprise nomination for Best Picture considering the pounding that critics gave it, but the rest are safe choices.
As for Best Actor, does Tom Hanks really need another Oscar to stroke as he goes to sleep? Come on, this guy was in Bosom Buddies. Edward Norton is a wonderful actor and deserved Oscars for his performances in The People Vs. Larry Flynt and Primal Fear, so hopefully, he'll get his due this year for American History X.
In the prettiest woman category, otherwise known as Best
Commentary
Actress, Gwyneth Paltrow should win for Shakespeare in Love. Not only did she have to play a boy, but she also took off her blouse. Cate Blanchett is too new; Meryl Streep is too old; Fernanda Montenegro has too alluring a name to be taken seriously; and Emily Watson had the misfortune of being cast in a movie that most people thought was about the United States' first ladies.
Ed Harris' nomination for Best Supporting Actor seems like a big award for his 10 minutes of screen time in *The Truman Show*. Billy Bob Thornton deserves the trophy for his dimitted character in *A Simple Plan*. Admittedly, he played the same role in *Sling Blade*, but if three movies about World War II can be nominated for Best Picture, it seems as if the academy can embrace repetition in other categories.
The most horrific error in this year's Oscars was that Lisa Kudrow wasn't nominated for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in The Opposite of Sex. All snickers and Friends jokes aside, she did a superb job.

The problem with the album is the ineffectual voice of Tara Slone, the lead singer. Her voice doesn't suit the harder songs. In comparison, her voice is as<sup>15</sup>

It's hard not to hear Poe's rhythms or Veruca Salt's guitars in Joydrop's music, but the band maintains its own aura.
The album begins with "Fizz," an upbeat tune that is saddled with weak lyrics and vocals. The song is
Vocal effects help Slone's voice to advance the attitude when the chorus chimes and the music intensifies.
The lyrics are just as engaging as Slone's singing: "If I was beautiful like you, I'd have so many friends all fighting for my time, to be next in line, so if I hurt one, I wouldn't have to make amends." Slone furtherns her statement by claiming.
Sone furthers her statement by claiming,
"I'm not beautiful like you. I'm beautiful like me."
A softer "Dream Today" contrasts the more intense songs, intending to comfort rather than to vitalize. The sweet lyric theme and sensual music offer a nice change of pace, proving that a slower tempo doesn't have to be boring.

The modern crusade
story by jamie knodel illustration by josh peterson
Every year thousands of Mormons devote their lives to their faith
For two years, Chad Sanner woke up every day at 6:30 a.m., studied for three hours, then went out and had doors slammed in his face. In the meantime, Sanner volunteered at hospitals and shared his apartment with roaches. Each day, Sanner was excited to start again.
Sanner, a Mulvane sophomore, spent two years of his life spreading his Mormon religious beliefs. He is one of many.
Thousands of full-time Mormon missionaries are serving in 162 countries worldwide this year, according to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Nearly all of them are college aged.
Mormon missionaries give up their home, family, comfortable beds and college scholarships. The missionaries also have to pay for the experience. It isn't always fun, and it's never easy, but former KU Mormon missionaries say the experience is fulfilling.
The mission breaks up many Mormons' college years.
Both Sanner and Mike Kennington, Leavenworth junior, already had started college when they went on their missions.
But school was not the only thing they had to leave behind.
Missionary Growth
Kennington sold his car and gave up his full-ride academic scholarship before he left for Honduras.
He now pays his school fees with student loans.
Laura Wycuff, a junior at Baker University in Baldwin, must give up her soccer scholarship before she leaves in April. Wycuff said she did not know where she would be going yet.
These students hesitate to call their actions sacrifices.
"It's really a blessing," Kennington said. "The Lord is giving us more than we are giving up."
That blessing does not come without a price tag. Each missionary pays $375 a month to cover expenses. The two-year experience costs about $10,000. The fees cover room and board, food and transportation.
If an individual lacks the money to serve, Kennington said that other church members always were eager to help out.
During his mission, Sanner was responsible for spreading Mormon beliefs and performing community service.

"Community service is our way of showing people that we are not out to brainwash but rather to serve the community," said Sanner, who volunteered in Los Angeles hospitals and nursing homes.

Paul Zindarmz-Swartz, professor of religious studies, said that from a young age, most Mormon boys planned on serving a mission, although it wasn't required. Mormon families and churches reinforce the idea throughout their children's lives.
"Missionaries have a belief that this is a religious calling." Zimdars-Swartz said.
Sanner began interviewing with church officials a year before his 19th birthday. Church officials counsel prospective missionaries until they believe the candidates are mature and spiritual enough to undertake a mission.
Kennington said little about where he would be called to go for his mission. That decision comes from the Salt Lake City Missionary Board.
Mormons believe that, through prayer, the board determines the destined mission for each individual.
After submitting their paperwork, Mormons anxiously await for "the letter" to come in the mail. Sanner said.
Of the 60,000 Mormon missionaries throughout the world, 75 percent are males between the ages of 19 and 26, according to Church of Latter Day Saints. Females make up 17 percent of the group.
Missionaries work long hours, seven days a week, for two years. Female missionaries serve for only 18 months.
"Everyone knows what 'the letter' is, and everyone is anxious for you to open it because that lets you know where you'll be for the next two years," Kennington said.
"There is a higher age requirement for females to keep the number of sisters serving lower." Wwcuff said.
Males cannot embark on their missions until they are 19 years old. Women must be 21.
Earlier last year the church's leader, President Gordon B. Hinckley, emphasized that women should not feel obligated to serve since missionary work was a priesthood, or male, responsibility, Wycuft said.
Male or female, Mormon missionaries follow strict rules.
Male missionaries only can bring 12 white button-down collared shirts, six pairs of black dress slacks, seven ties and two pairs of shoes that can be polished. Females are expected to bring long dark-colored, conservative dresses for their missions.
While serving, Kennington and Sanner had to stay an arm's length away from the
Missionaries' only contact with their parents is through letters and two phone calls a year — on Christmas and Mother's Day.
opposite sex. They were allowed only to shake hands with females.
In general, a mission is so centered on the religious aspects that family is seen as a distraction. Zimdars-Swartz said.
But the toughest part for Kennington was staying with his companion at all times. All Mormon missionaries are assigned a companion for security reasons and are expected to be together 24 hours a day.
"Staying with my companion all the time was not always easy. But, it eventually got to the point where it felt weird without being together." Kennington said.
In Honduras, Kennington lived like the locals in an adobe clay building, with a
bucket for a shower and an outhouse for a bathroom
He had to shave, hot water or not. Facial hair is forbidden.
"I had to just suck it up and do it," Kennington said.
While Sanner did enjoy carpet and warm water, he said that he often had more roommates than he initially anticiplated.
"We would just stay in the cheapest place in town, and we usually shared the place with roaches," he said.
Despite the hardships, Kennington found his two-year mission very fulfilling.
"My mission was the hardest time in my life, but it was like a high," Kennington said.
Because they serve for two years, missionaries are bound to come back different. Zimdars Swartz said.
Although people were not always responsive to his message, Sanner said his mission was successful.
"They come back with stronger faith and convictions. What they've done — being missionaries — has affected their thinking," he said.
Many Californians slammed doors in his face and cut him off mid-sentence, but Sanner kept knocking. At times, it was discouraging he said, but every person he talked to was a new challenge he looked forward to tackling.
"I talked to thousands of people who rejected what I was saying, but I still feel as though I'did some good," Sanner said.
Zimdars-Swartz said that for Mormons there is no such thing as an unsuccessful mission.
"They fully believe mission work is going to triumph. Their faith is going to continue, and they are convinced it will win out," he said.
Kennington and Sanner agreed that scripture and religion were not the only things they had learned.
Kennington, a business major, is now a fluent Spanish speaker. After two years of speaking nothing but Spanish, he said he sometimes struggles to find an English word.
Sanner sees the effects of his mission in his schoolwork.
"I've really learned how to study and understand material," the pre-physical therapy major said.
Wycuff said that missionaries also grow as individuals.
"When you serve a mission, you become a stronger person. You have to become more independent, because you're away from all your family and friends," she said.

MIDDLE DRAFT

NCAA alters bat sizes
Baseball team would prefer wood instead
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
While several members of the selected committee proposed in this past off season that the college game change to the wood bats used in the professional game, the committee instead chose to modify the dimensions of the aluminum bat.
The amount of line drive-related injuries in baseball leagues throughout the world has increased during the past few years, prompting the NCAA to change the regulations regarding aluminum bats.
The decision has received mixed reactions throughout the sports world, but members of this and last year's Kansas baseball team generally favor a switch to wood bats.
"Since the major leagues use wood bats and this is the level right below, I think the NCAA should switch to wood," senior pitcher Chris Williams said. "I think it would help everybody out as far as adjusting to the next level."
Josh Dimmick, Kansas' catcher from a season ago and current minor league ballplayer with the Houston Astros organization, agreed that the transition would have been smoother had he used wood in college.
"I think it's a tough adjustment because once you break a couple of bats, you start changing your swing," Dimmck said. "If everybody would've been on the same level and used wood, I think it would have helped that transition a lot."
The changes that will take place this season relate to bat length and weight. Bo Carter, Service Bureau Director for the Big 12, said the aluminum bats used this season could have no more than a "minus three differential."
"That is to say if the bat is 36 inches long, it cannot weigh more than 33 ounces." Carter said.
Along with regulating the weight and length, the diameter also has been tweaked. Bats used last season were 2/3 4 inches around the barrel, while this year's number has been brought down to 2 5/8 inches, a minimal difference that some say may not even matter.
"Regardless, when the ball comes off hard, it comes from the middle of the bat, so no matter how small the barrel is, if it comes off the middle, it will still be hard," sophomore pitcher Brian Schriner said.
Williams said he and other pitchers had been hit many times. The changes were made to decrease the risk that players take every time they step on the field, without sacrificing the offensive explosiveness that the aluminum bats provide.
Baseball America, a college baseball publication, reported that pitchers' earned run averages and hitters' batting averages fell when wood bats were used in the summer leagues.
"The offense is what makes the game so exciting and so different from the major leagues," junior catcher Shane Wedd said. "If we used wood, the stats and scores would go down."
The NCAA Executive Committee, however thinks the changes will make a difference for the better.
"Adoption of the two physical standards will retard the performance of certain nonwood bats in use last season," NCAA President Cedric W. Dempsey said. "So we are moving in the correct direction, and we're doing it sooner rather than later. That is significant."
Men's tennis team prepares for future matches

meetings.
The Kansas men's tennis team returns to the court tonight after an 18-day layoff to compete against in-state rival Wichita State.
The Jayhawks are coming off their first tournament win since the Big 8 tournament in 1996. They defeated Western Michigan and Minnesota to capture the Ice Volleys on Jan. 23 in Minnesota.
Tonight, the team will continue a 28-year-old rivalry. Kansas and Wichita State have met 22 times in the last 28 years but not since 1996. The Jayhawks hold a 20-8 record against the Shockers, winning the last 12
Wichita State returns five letter winners from last year's Missouri Valley Championship team that finished with a record of 17-7.
Kansas coach Mark Riley said he knew little about the team but knew better than to overlook them.
"They are a young team, but they have won the Missouri Valley Conference a couple years in a row," Riley said. "They have a lot of tradition in their program."
Senior Luis Uribe and sophomore Ed Dus earned extra competition experience during the weekend by participating in the Rolex Intercollegiate Indoors tournament.
Although Uribe lost his two singles
matches, the pair defeated the seventh ranked team from Southern Methodist and the top-ranked team from UNLV before losing to third-ranked Illinois in the semifinals.
"Our doubles team gained a lot of confidence," Uribe said. "Playing in matches is the best way to practice because you have more experience under pressure."
Senior Kenny Powell said that Dus and Uribe's success helped keep the team focused during their long break.
"Ed and Luis played incredible in Dallas," Powell said. "The team was feeding off the fact they've played so well to motivate us to work harder back here so that we can come out and dominate Wichita State, hopefully."
After facing Wichita State, the team will travel to Columbus, Ohio, for a Friday match against Ohio State.
Kansas has faced Ohio State one time, a 5-2 Kansas victory last season. The Buckeyes return eight of 10 letter winners from last year's team that only could muster a 4-21 record.
"I think we will be ready because we won the Ice Volleys in Minnesota by winning two matches back-to-back," Powell said.
Powell said he felt confident that the team was prepared to play well in the two matches scheduled so close together.
The team's last home match, played without Uribe, resulted in a 2-loss to Louisville.
Jayhawks to target Cornhuskers
Basketball team aims to avenge Nebraska, take four wins in a row
Four wins in a row and a chance to reclaim the Big 12 lead would be a nice way for the Kansas men's basketball team to recover from back-to-back losses and a suspension from The Associated Press Top 25.
By Marc Sheforgen associate sports editor
In fact, four consecutive victories would match a season high for the Jayhawks (16-6, 8-2), who haven't accomplished the feat since early January. A fourth straight win also would move Coach Roy Williams to within one victory of reaching 300.
The Cornhuskers, who face Kansas at 8:05 tonight at Allen Fieldhouse, handed Kansas its second consecutive loss for the first time since 1994, with an 84-69 win Jan. 27. It was also the Jayhawks' last loss since winning three in a row.
But the Nebraska Cornhuskers don't care about Kansas milestones or the fading loyalty of some KU fans, and they are very capable party crashers.
Kansas forward T.J. Pugh said the loss in Lincoln was embarrassing, and Williams said his team had not performed like a typical Kansas team in the game's second half.
Kansas center Eric Chenowith had nearly identical numbers — 20 points and 12 rebounds — in the game in Lincoln but has not been quite as productive since. Chenowith has had foul trouble in the last three games, averaging 26 minutes of playing time. He played 32 minutes in Lincoln, and Williams likely will need that much out of his starting center tonight.
Kansas may need more than poise to stop Nebraska's Venson Hamilton. The 'Husker center is a likely First-Team All-Big 12 selection who scored 20 points and grabbed 12 rebounds in the win against Kansas.
"We did lose our poise down the stretch," Williams said. "You can count on one hand the number of times that's happened here in the last 11 years."
The Jayhawks have more depth in terms of big men than Nebraska, but
"He just outran us," Pugh said. "We can't let him do that. He's going to get his shot and get his points, and he's a great rebounder, but you've got to try to limit what he does and try to make it tough for him."
"He does need to play well because Venson Hamilton is a huge part of their team, and Eric's size and ability can negate some of the things that Venson can do." Williams said.
Pugh said Hamilton consistently beat him and the other Kansas big men down the court in Lincoln and scored too many easy transition baskets.
how far will that depth extend?
Senior guard Ryan Robertson, who also is banged-up, jammed his right wrist in the Colorado game. Williams said yesterday that Robertson would not practice full-time but that he would play tonight.
Yesterday before practice, Williams said he had not decided whether Lester Earl, who is nursing an ankle injury, would play against Nebraska. The 6-foot-8 junior did not play Sunday against Colorado or in the Feb. 1 game against Kansas State.
Big 12 Conference leader Texas (14-9, 9-1) plays Oklahoma (16-7, 7-3) tonight. The Jayhawks are one game behind Texas in the standings, and with a Kansas win and a Texas loss, the Jayhawks could take the conference lead. Kansas beat Texas Jan. 18, and therefore, would win a head-to-head tie at the end of the conference season.
But Williams is not looking that far ahead. He's thinking about Nebraska and trying to win four in a row.
"It we don't play well, they win," Williams said. "That's as simple as it gets. If we do play well, we may not win. But if we don't play well, we have no chance of winning."

Commentary
Laser pointers monopolize sports gossip
It's only, what, the third week of the semester, and my mind already is swirling with too much sports gossip to focus on one issue.
Sampson asked the crowd to let the players decide the outcome of the game and to keep the distracting laser pointers turned off. He said if someone saw a person using a laser pointer, they should tell security so that the person could be thrown out of the gymnasium.
This is the second time I've seen a game with a Big 12 team interrupted by some bozo with a laser pointer — the first was Kansas vs. De Paul.
If you were watching the Oklahoma vs. Oklahoma State game on Saturday, a nationally televised game on ESPN, you saw Oklahoma coach Kelvin Sampson stop the game to address the crowd about laser pointers.
I think there are two types of people who own laser pointers: the highly intelligent and the utterly moronic.
The first kind of laser-pointer user, the intelligent one, is a professor at a large university of mayau CEO of some high-dollar business. He or she uses a laser pointer when making presentations on some scholarly subject.

walls while sitting alone in the dark.
The other kind of laser pointer user, the moron, is the person who is so mindless that he or she is amused by shining a little red dot on someone's forehead or by making the little red dot dance across apartment
Thinking that others share their amusement in the little red light, they take the laser pointer out to the local sporting event and put the little red dot on the backs of people's heads, on the players, and maybe even tempt fate by putting a dot on the security guy.
The problem with laser pointers might be solved if retailers who sold them made their customers take an I.Q. test before they were allowed to purchase one.
I really hope so. The laser pointer joke was funny for two seconds. And that was a year ago.
Until then, can we trust people to be not only intelligent enough but also considerate of others and to leave their laser pointers at home?
I think it's time for Marlon London to become a starter. There, I said it. Why? If Kenny Gregory is going to be benched to make him our new sixth man, why put in T.J. Pugh, a role player who helps but who is already at the peak of his production level and in his senior year? With another very talented freshman in the starting line up, we're working on being a better team in the future.
It would be a smaller lineup, I know. But when London is a senior and the team three years down the road is thinking about a Final Four appearance, this player would be better prepared.
I'm only asking, but do you think after Ryan Robertson makes a great play, he could do something besides the right-arm flex? By no means am I saying I want to see him raising the roof, but if you watch, Robertson does the right-arm flex roughly 4.5 times a game, leading all of college basketball in that statistic.
Maybe Robertson could do a little cha-cha, or high-step, or grimace at the camera. Just anything to switch it up a little.
I got a lot of nice reader feedback from my last column, in which I was critical of Maurice Evans of Wichita State University and the city of Wichita as a place to live in general.
The main problem people had was how could someone from Mulvane criticize the social scene of Wichita?
Well, first of all, I never said that Mulvane was better than Wichita. But if it makes my readers feel better, Mulvane is indeed much worse than Wichita. Residents of Mulvane consider a six-pack of beer and a laser pointer in a dark room a party. Of course, Wichita is about 60 times the size of Mulvane, but as they say, it's not the size — of a town — that matters.
And yes, I did take a simple cheap shot at Kansas State students as well as Wichita residents. Please forgive me for not being the least bit sorry.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
You and your buddies can accomplish marvelous things this year, some things so wonderful that even you don't believe it now. Go for a goal you share with your friends, even if all you have right now is faith. February is full of inspiration, and March is pretty good about money. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 7. You could use an advanced philosophical concept to solve a puzzle today. It might happen by accident, and that's part of the trick. It's as if you let go on purpose so that a miracle can occur, and it does.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
It looks as if a friend of yours is clashing with an older person. It's one of those lose-lose situations. Your friend is feeling beat up, and the other person is feeling let down. You can see this situation more objectively than either of them, so coaching is permissible.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
It looks as if somebody could get hurt feelings today, and it's one of those tragic situations that might have been avoided if people were a little more careful about what they said. Choose your words carefully. Don't make fun of anyone else, for example.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
A sensitive friend of yours could get her feelings hurt today. You're probably one of the people she'll come to if that happens. Advise your friend that she's luckier than she realizes. As confronting situation could point out an area that needs to be avoided, or a lesson to be learned.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22: Today is a 6.
The spotlight is on love and partnerships, two of your favorite topics. They may not be going all that smoothly, however. What you want and what your partner insists upon may be quite different. Who's going to give in first? Well, in this particular situation, it looks as if that honor falls to you.
Virao (Aua. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
Virginia Aug. 15 2019
The conflict today concerns your partner and something that's going on at home. The two of you could have a clash of ideas, which will require that some sort of compromise be reached. Part of the compromise, just possibly, is something that neither of you has considered before.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 7.
A thoughtless remark today could hurt a co-worker more than you ever thought possible, so be careful what you say. Tell people what they want to hear.
This isn't lying, and lying is not required.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
It looks as if you could have a setback, but you'll survive if you plan ahead. Keep something in reserve, and don't gamble more than you can afford to lose. The good luck comes closer to home. Something you already own could increase in value, or maybe you'll just find out it's worth more than you thought.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 7.
You're a gregarious, outgoing person. When you run into someone who doesn't want to mingle, you might secretly feel there's something wrong with him or her. If you let that get out today, you could hurt a friend's feelings. Accept them as they are, and don't expect them to be any other way. You may be pleasantly surprised.
Capricorn [Dec. 22-Jan. 19]: Today is a 6.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6.
Yesterday's blinding insights are starting to settle in by now. You might have to look at yourself in a completely new and different way. This takes a little practice, but it's worth it. You might even decide that it's OK for you to take a little time to play, instead of working 24 hours a day.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
If your sweetheart thinks you're spending more on your friends than on your family, you'll be in trouble. Don't worry. You'll find a way around this rather delicate situation. What you need to give your loved one is not a gift, but a compliment.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Someone might say something that hurts your feelings today. The person probably wasn't being malicious, but if he or she was laughing, it sure felt like that, didn't it? Well, when we can laugh at ourselves, that's when we really become enlightened.

BOSTON — A 55-year-old courthouse employee was charged yesterday with stealing the wills of baseball Hall of Famers from a courthouse vault.
Man charged in theft of Hall of Famers' wills
Joseph Schnabel of Pembroke, an employee of Suffolk County Probate Court, was accused of taking the papers last year. He was arraigned in Boston Municipal Court yesterday morning on larceny charges, and a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf.
Among the papers discovered missing in October were the original wills of George Wright, Hugh Duffy and Thomas McCarthy, players for Boston teams in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Boston Police Department representative Peter Norton said Schnabel had admitted stealing wills in other states.
Schnabel surrendered to police Monday night, said Jim Borghesani, representative for the Suffolk County district attorney's office.
Utah Olympic officials to be focus of report
SALT LAKE CITY — The top two officials of Salt Lake City's Olympic bid are expected to be the focus of a lengthy report from an internal ethics investigation of the biggest corruption scandal in the history of the games.
The report, scheduled for release today, is expected to concentrate on the actions of Tom Welch, who directed the successful bid for the 2002 Winter Olympics, and Dave Johnson, his top lieutenant.
ethics panel should not be looked at as complete because the panel did not have subpoena powers and because some people refused to be interviewed. The board spent much of its time exam-

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Because Auburn canceled its football game against Florida State, the Atlantic Coast Conference commissioner says that maybe the Tigers shouldn't play against any of the conference's nine universities.
Auburn may be banned by ACC football teams
In a letter to Auburn athletics director David Housel, ACC commissioner John Swofford wrote, "If this is the way Auburn University is going to conduct its business, I feel it is my obligation as conference commissioner to ask all of our member institutions to seriously evaluate whether it makes sense to schedule Auburn in any sport."
The Oriando Sentinel obtained a copy of Swofford's letter.
Housel said Auburn received the letter before making the decision to cancel the game but did not elaborate.
Auburn is a member of the Southeastern Conference.
Swofford called it absolutely reprehensible that. Auburn would ever consider canceling a contracted football game that had been scheduled for national television.
Atlanta Falcons player charged with conspiracy
MIAMI — Another Atlanta Falcons player is taking a legal hit.
Receiver Tony Martin, 33, who caught five passes in the Falcons' 34-19 Super Bowl loss to Denver, returned to Miami on Monday, appearing in court in shackles to face money laundering and conspiracy charges.
Pro Bowl safety Eugene Robinson was arrested the night before the SuperBowl on charges of soliciting oral sex from a female undercover police officer. Robinson is due back in court March 2, but Martin potentially is in much deeper legal trouble.
"I'm not guilty of anything," Martin said after being released on $250,000 bond. "This whole thing is ludicrous. After this trial is over, I will be cleared."
"He would pass out turkeys at Thanksgiving, give bicycles to little kids — but he was also selling heroin and cocaine," said William Mitchell, special agent in charge of the DEA's Miami office, when Brownlee was arrested in January 1998.
Martin's legal troubles spring from his longtime relationship with Rickey Brownlee, a convicted drug dealer known as the "Mayer of Opa-Locka" for his Robin Hood style.
Martin was being investigated for months. His name appeared Monday on the third superseded indictment in the case, which also involves cocaine and heroin trafficking.
Olympic Games
The receiver is not accused of involvement in Brownlee's drug business. Prosecutors said he wrote checks to lease luxury cars and pay legal fees for his friend because Brownlee's lawyers wouldn't take cash.

Kansas player nets victories before losing in tournament
By Amanda Kaschube Kanson sportswriter
Competing against the top 32 nationally ranked players would make any player nervous.
Last weekend, Kris Sell, Kansas' number one singles player, played in her first Rolex Indoor Championship and defeated two ranked players before losing on Saturday.
"If she had nerves, she disguised them very well," said Coach Jenny Garrity. "She focused on the game, not her opponent."
Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior lost in the quarterfinals.
"I did better than I expected," Sell said. "Every match was hard, and I had to be ready."
In the first round on Thursday,
Sell, ranked No. 25, defeated No. 4
Mirela Vladulescu of Alabama-
Birmingham, 6-4, 6-2.
"There were a lot of times when Kris could have lost her concentration." Garrity said. "There were

Sell said she was not used to Vladi-
ulescu's style of tennis.
lots of bad line calls."
"She is from Germany, and she uses more spin and angles than I'm used to," Sell said. "I just mixed m shots up like my coaches told m to."
Sell practiced with her brothers before the match to prepare herself.
"They hit me a lot of different shots, so I'd be ready for Mirela," she said. "It helped me get in the right frame of mind."
In the next round on Friday morning, Sell defeated No. 33 Karen Goldstein of Duke, 6-4, 6-3.
Goldstein's style was similar to Soli's style of tennis. Garrity said,
Sell played Goldstein last year and defeated her, 6-4, 6-4.
"I was pretty confident going into the match," Sell said. "I just let her
make her mistakes."
Garrity said because of the similarity of the styles, Goldstein was a dangerous player for Sell to face.
"Kris fought the whole way," Garrity said. "She was down in six games 0-40, and she came back and won them all. It was a matter of who wanted it more."
In the quarterfinals on Friday night, Sell lost to No. 6 Marissa Irvin of Stanford. 6-0, 6-0.
"Kris was just a little outplayed," Garrity said. "I think there was a small let-down from the day before."
Irvin took out four top-10 players before eventually winning the tournament.
Garrity said Irvin, the top singles player at Stanford, would be the new No. 1 nationally ranked player.
Sell said she felt defenseless during the match.
"I tried mixing up my shots, but it didn't work." she said.

CANTON, Ohio — With bronzed Hall of Fame busts of Jim Brown, Lou Groza and Leroy Kelly remind them of their rich NFL past, the new Cleveland Browns continue to build their team with no-name players.
Priming for their return this season after a three-year absence, the Browns selected Detroit center Jim Pyne with their first pick in yesterday's NFL expansion draft.
And with its final pick, Cleveland brought back a past Brown's player, former San Francisco cornerback Antonio Langham.
Pyne's selection set the tone for a draft in which the Browns spent wisely — only two players have salary costs of more than $1 million and loaded up on young offensive lineman and defensive backs. Cleveland used 10 of its 37 picks on defensive backs and nine on the offensive front.
high-priced players such as Denver's Darren Gordon and Washington's Gus Frerotte, opting instead to take players considered to have long-term potential while saving money to use on free agents.
As expected, Cleveland avoided
FASTBREAK
Pyne, 27, started all 16 games for the Lions last season after spending his first three years with Tampa Bay. His versatility made him attractive to the Browns, as did his salary of $1.885 million.
The Brown's selected only one player older than 30 — San Francisco linebacker James Williams.
take in the expansion draft.
The NFL required the Brownts to take 30 to 42 players or spend 38 percent ($21.77 million) of their salary cap ($57.28 million) on players they
Before taking Langham at a cost of $3.02 million against the cap, Cleveland had chosen only four players with price tags of more than $600,000.
Pyne's selection fit perfectly into this day when history was on everyone's mind. He is part of the only three-generation NFL family in history. His father, George III, played for Boston in 1965, and his grandfather, George I, played for Providence in 1931-32.
"Cleveland is a great place," said Pyne, a 6-foot 2, 297-pound from Virginia Tech. "I'm glad to be here. I wanted to be here. I grew up watching the Browns."
It seemed that everyone else at the Canton Civic Center did, too.
More than 4,000 fans were on hand for the nearly three-hour, made-for-TV event.
BATON ROUGE, La. Louisiana State University will get one last chance to argue that the penalties the NCAA imposed on the school in the recruiting of Lester Earl were too harsh.
LSU to get last appeal in Earl case
The Associated Press
University officials will go before the NCAA's appeals committee on Feb. 27 in Atlanta.
The university is appealing the ban on postseason play this year, the loss of one more scholarship and a limit of two new scholarships in each of the next two seasons. Those were among eight sanctions
from the NCAA Committee on Infractions.
Earl: His recruitment at LSU triggered NCAA sanctions.
PETER A. HALLMARK
The penalties were imposed after an investigation found several infractions, including that an LSU booster had paid Earl $5,000 to get the former high school All-
American to sign with the Tigers.
After ten to six weeks, the Committee's sanctions were added to LSU's self-imposed sanctions, which included a loss of five scholarships during the next three years, a reduction of six official recruiting visits, forfeiture of five games in which Earl played and the disassociation of two LSU boosters.
Reason for the appeal include:
Reasons for the upbraids here:
■ The university was not found to have a lack of institutional control.
■ The university did not gain a
The university did not gain a significant competitive advantage.
significant competitive advantage
■ No sanctions were imposed on then coach Dale Brown and assistant Johnny Jones.
The penalties are inconsistent with those placed on other universities with similar violations.
There were no systematic violations because only one athlete was involved and because the violations mostly were secondary in nature.

WICHITA — Wichita State basketball coach Randy Smithson was reprimanded publicly by the university yesterday for berating his players and violating NCAA practice rules.
Smithson reprimanded for practice violations
The Associated Press
The university's inve stemmed from a dispute involv ing player Maurice WSU Wichita State University
Maurice Wichita State University Evans, who briefly quit the team.
The university also will cut practice hours, and neither Smithson nor his assistants will receive pay raises for the 1999-2000 season.
Athletics Director Bill Belknap said the university would decide next year whether to extend the three years left on Smithson's contract.
The university announced the reprimand and other disciplinary measures in hopes, of avoiding sterner NCAA action.
The university's report will be forwarded to the Missouri Val-
loy Conference and then to the NCAA.
"It is our expectation . . . our actions will be strong enough that they will be satisfied with what we have done, and that is one of the reasons why we took strong actions," Belknap said.
Smithson, whose team has a record of 10-13. apologized.
Evans left practice late last month and missed two games but returned to avoid being called a quitter. This temporary leave prompted an investigation by a university lawyer.
The disciplinary measures call for more consideration by coaches of the need for athletes to have personal time.
Smithson said that the investigation had been a learning experience and that it was time to find new approaches.
The report also found use of profanity during practice but no intended physical abuse.
Ted Ayres, who ran the investigation, said the university had committed coaches who became enmeshed in circumstances.
Evel Knievel hopes to find life-saving donor's family
Daredevil thankful after liver transplant
The Associated Press
TAMPA, Fla. — Daredevil stuntman Evel Knievel, feeling tired two weeks after undergoing a liver transplant, has a new challenge — to thank personally the family of the man who saved his life.
Knievel, 60, held a news conference at Tampa General Hospital, where he was released Saturday, 10 days after his 5 1/2-hour transplant.
plant.
It was Knievel's day. And, as it was during a career of daring motorcycle stunts, it was a one-man show. He was feeling grateful to have conquered another death-defying trial.
Knievel said he had spoken to Hall of Fame running back Walter Payton and had encouraged him to come to Florida for a liver transplant. His doctor diagnosed Payton, 44, with primary sclerosing cholangitis, which blocks the bile ducts. Without a transplant, his doctor said Payton would live only about two years.
Foremost on Knievel's mind was his new lease on life, organ donations and concern for the grieving family of the young man whose liver was implanted in him. Knievel contracted liver-destroying Hepatitis C years ago during a blood transfusion for one of his 14 surgeries.
"I don't even know him, but I love him, and I hope to find more information about his family and, hopefully, maybe become a part of their family and let them know how wonderful I feel toward their son," Knievel said of the donor.
Dr. Hector Ramos of Tampa-based LifeLink, who performed the surgery, said that the identity of the donor family was protected to allow members to grieve privately but that contact could be established in a step-by-step process later.
Knieve gave Ramos and LifeLink a California motorcycle with his name emblazoned in gold lettering. The $25,000 bike can be raffled to raise money for organ transplants, he said.
"I'm proud that I was born an American," Knievel said, quoting a piece he had written. "God has been good to me, and I hope and I pray that my spirit will go on and that I'll win again."

THE STUDENT NEWSPAPER OF THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
Fall break proposal nears vote
Calendar proposal adds intersession
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
(USPS 650-640)
Full fall could come one step closer to reality this afternoon when University Council considers a proposal to change the academic calendar.
The Calendar Committee's latest effort to modify the yearly schedule contains a two-day break in mid-October and a two-week interession from Jan. 1.
When the council meets this afternoon in Blake Hall, it could vote to adopt and forward the proposal to Provost David Shulenburger and Chancellor Robert Hemenway for approval.
The new calendar would shorten finals week from six days to five days and finalexam periods from three hours to 21/2 hours.
"We're doing this because it responds
to expressed needs," said Carol Holstead, Calendar Committee member and associate professor of journalism. "Students need a mental break in the middle of the semester."
Jennifer Lindsay, Midland, Mich. graduate student, agreed.
"I think it's a great idea." Lindsay said. "I had it as an undergraduate at a private liberal arts school. The longest stretch is between the beginning of the year and Thanksgiving. Students need a chance to flake off for a little bit."
Holstead said the committee was proud of the proposed calendar's symmetry and order. But she emphasized that it was not a ploy to gain more free time.
"No matter what we do here, we are not getting more time off," Holstead said. "We are getting different time off."
She said the changes, especially the shorter finals periods and five-day finals week, might produce domino-effect problems in different schools and departments.
"But it's not as though what is done can't be undone," Holstead said. "We
need to try this and see if the things we gain are worth the tradeoff."
If the University Council passes the calendar changes, the proposal will go to the provost and the chancellor for approval. Holstead said she thought the administration supported the plan.
The Board of Regents also must approve the calendar changes, which will set academic dates for Fall 2001 through Spring 2004. Holstead said if the proposal was well-accepted, the committee might push to begin the plan during fall 2000.
Bob Basow, University Council president, said the plan illustrated the University's decision-making process at its best.
This proposal is the latest in a series of attempts to change the academic calendar.
"It is a perfect example of how students, faculty, administration and staff can work together over an extended period to examine a complicated issue," Basow said.
The council passed a calendar plan containing a fall break last spring, but the administration sent it back to the Calendar Committee. Shulenburger requested a two-week intersession after Jan.1 so students could take study abroad trips or short classes.
PROPOSAL
- Fall break: Thursday and Friday on Oct. 13 and 14 or Oct. 20 and 21
- Semester length: 75 days
Stop Day: Friday after the last day of classes
■ Finals week: Monday through Friday
■ Final-exam period: 2/12 hours
Last fall, the Calendar Committee voted down a plan with a fall break and intersession because it would have caused a conflict between Memorial Day weekend and commencement in some years.
This proposal, although maintaining 150 days of classes and meeting all Board of Regents requirements, allows for fall break and intersession and keeps graduation before the holiday.

Simply Sex answers intimate questions every Monday
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
Gina and Alv want to talk about sex
Jenny Schierbaum, who goes by the pseudonym "Aly" on the show, said the idea for the program was created during a phone call.
And anything from using a bread wrapper as a condom to cheating lovers is acceptable.
"I was talking to this guy, and he said that I had an awesome voice and should be on the radio," said Schierbaum, Chariton, Iowa, sophomore. "I told him if there was anything I would want to talk about, it would be sex."
The pair are the hosts of the show Simply Sex, a KJHK radio program that provides an open format for the discussion of sexual matters. They started the show at the beginning of this semester.
After getting information about applying for a show on KJHK, Schierbaum recruited her roommate, Lawrence sophomore Raeann Scharenberg, who calls herself "Gina" to be a co-host on the show, and the two filled out an application just minutes before it was due.
"I really think that they just wanted a sex show," Scharenberg said. "They didn't know us from Adam."
Gaum. Sex is a matter of utter importance for Schierbaum,
who recently helped hand out 200 condoms around Wescoe Hall to promote the show.
Another caller admitted to having sex with his girlfriend while listening to the previous week's show.
And one caller said that his wife were pressuring him into becoming a homosexual and that he wanted to prove to them that he could do it, Scharenberg said.
After three shows, the co-hosts have covered a lot of territory.
One caller was concerned with a rash that appeared after using a lambskin condom that his father had given him.
And Schierbaum isn't apprehensive about talking. "It's fun to talk about sex and say, 'Hey, when was it?"
"It worries me. I'm paranoid. Sex is something that everyone should be talking about, and people in college aren't," she said. "It's my cause."
Scharenberg said that although she felt some of the calls could be hoaxes, they still could be useful to listeners.
"I have to take each call as being serious," Schierbaum said. "But sometimes after the show I'm like, 'Was that guy for real?'
Although the show has a humorous air to it, the cohosts said they *c*'dn't want callers to feel uncomfortable.

What you might hear. . .
Caller; Yeah, I was just calling about the condom debate. You know what's really good is the, uh, blue kind.
Gina: Blueberry-fla
Caller:
Yeah, those are really
red, is that good?
Caller: Well, I just saw them on the floor.
good. And there's also a red kind. I think it's just like a strawberry flavor.
careful if they're in the restroom. Are they like in a vending machine in the bathroom?
Q&A
Gina & Aly: Really?
Gina: Where do you get those at?
Caller: I'm not particular or anything.
Aly: Maybe
Caller: Oh, uh, I usually get them there at the Quickie Mart right there on Ninth.
you should be particular. You just need to be sure that it has an expiration date on it, and that it's effective because the novelty condoms are great to buy and great fun to use, but they're not always safe.
Aly: Maybe

Study finds women earn less than men at universities
Kansan staff writer
By Chris Hopkins
Provost David Schulenburger said that the University was working to correct pay differences between male and female professors.
A study released Feb. 2 by the American Association of University Professors said that women still were underpaid and under-represented in US colleges and universities.
As of Fall 1997, University of Kansas faculty was less than one-third women. As of the 1999 fiscal year, female professors' salaries were $7,000 less on average than their male counterparts.
Schulenburger said that female professors were actually paid more money than male professors per the number of years they have spent at their current position.
Female professors have been in their current positions an average of six years less than male professors.
The study said experience was one reason why there was a lack of female professors. Because the majority of women entered university teaching relatively recently, few have reached the rank of professor yet.
In 1997, male full professors at KU outnumbered the total number of female faculty. There were seven male professors for every one female professor at the University.
Nationally, the rate was closer to five to one. Ernst Benjamin, director of research for the AAUP and author of the study, said this was a national trend for women in academics
"They tend to be relegated to the less prestigious and less remunerative jobs," he said.
Schulenburger said the schools of law, business and engineering paid the most. However, those schools had lower proportions of women than the remainder of the University.
Six percent of the faculty members of the School of Engineering are female, while women make up nearly a third of the School of Education.
Ingrained societal problems were the main causes of the differences. Benjamin said.
"Working with culture is a hard slow way to solve anything, but it's something we have to do," he said.
The study also said that women tended to be promoted more slowly than men and receive tenure more infrequently.
Ellen Sward, professor of law and member of the KU Faculty Women's Group Steering Committee, said that while the University granted tenure to women at the same rate as it granted tenure to men, the University lost women before tenure at almost twice the rate of men.
"We're finding that women are running into problems ranging from neglect to, in rare cases, hostility," she said.
KU Faculty Women's Group formed last semester. The group has been working with Schulenburger to solve some salary and promotion problems.
Elizabeth Topp, associate professor of pharmaceutical chemistry and member of the steering committee, said the goal of the committee was to be a liaison between female faculty members and the administration.
Topp said she wanted to help the group because she was the first woman to work in her department at KU.
"I want to make sure that other women around campus have someone to listen to them," she said.

Services for professor will be held Saturday
A memorial service for John Ginn, former Knight Distinguished professor of Journalism at the University of Kansas, will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday at the Plymouth Congregational Church, 925 Vermont St. The service will be followed by a reception.
Ginn died at 3:50 Tuesday at Lawrence Memorial Hospital from complications of lung cancer. He was 62.
Jimmy Gentry, dean of the School of Journalism and Mass Communications, said that Ginn would be deeply missed.
"This is a major loss to the School of Journalism, the KU community and the field of journalism," Gentry said. "John was a wonderful teacher who cared deeply about the craft of teaching and about his students. He always wanted to find ways to be even better in the classroom and he was a man of enormous personal integrity."
Ginn will be cremated, and his ashes will be inurned at a later date in Anderson County, S.C., where he was publisher and editor of the Anderson Independent-Mail for 17 years.

Forum will encourage students to stay at KU
A panel of older students will encourage freshman students to stay at the University of Kansas during the Minority Freshman Forum that will take place from 7 to 9 tonight in the lobby of the Kansas Union.
"We have a huge rate of getting them here, but they don't stay," she said.
The forum, sponsored by the Student Senate, is an attempt to help minority freshmen stay at the University by providing them with University contacts and support, said Keena McClendon, Grandview, Mo., senior, and member of the Minority Student Retention subcommittee.
McClendon said that the panel would be composed of students of different majors and interests.
The Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center and Supportive Educational Services also will send representatives to the forum.
Students would be able to ask questions of panel members in an open discussion, McClendon said.

Abandoned dog spends two weeks in trailer
A dog was locked in a trailer home for two weeks after its owner moved out, Officer Matt Sarna of the Lawrence Police Department said.
Police found the dog Monday in the 2200 block of Harper Street after
receiving a call from a concerned neighbor. There was no food or water in the abandoned trailer, and the dog, a Dalmatian, was severely malnourished, Sarna said.
Sama said the animal was taken to a shelter by Lawrence Animal Control.
Man needs shot after run-in with Sweet Pea
What 60-year-old Kansas Public Service employee received from Sweet Pea wasn't sugar or a vegetable.
The employee was bit by Sweet Pea, a dog, as the man approached a house in the 1400 block of E. 18th Street to tell the owner of the home that he was shutting off the gas for maintenance, a Lawrence Police report said.
The employee was given a tetanus shot, and the dog will be quarantined for 10 days at the owner's expense, which is normal procedure with dog-bite cases, a police representative said.

Lawmakers say budget plan will hurt hospitals
WASHINGTON — The new White House budget proposal to slash Medicare payments will hurt rural hospitals, Kansas lawmakers say.
Sen. Pat Roberts and Rep. Jerry Moran are urging colleagues to reject President Clinton's plan to further curb payments to hospitals from the health insurance program for the elderly and disabled. Congressional resistance to the proposed cuts is expected to grow.
At the same time, the president wants to use government surpluses to prop up Medicare, which now is expected to run short of money in 2008.
Clinton's budget proposal would cost Kansas hospitals $6,75 million in the first year. The state's hospitals would suffer another $500,000 annually from reduced payments for indigent care.
About two-thirds of Kansas hospitals already lose money caring for Medicare patients, Roberts said, and the hospitals expect to lose another $530 million during the next several years.
TV character is negative influence, reverend says
antenna shaped like a triangle, a gaypride symbol. The paper is edited and published by Falwell.
The Rev. Jerry Falwell is telling parents that the purple "Teletubbies" character from the popular children's television show is a homosexual role model.
Is Tinky Winky gay?
In a statement issued Tuesday, Failwell said he felt that role modeling the gay lifestyle was damaging to the moral lives of children.
Under a headline that reads "Parents Alert: Tinky Winky Out of the Closet," an article in the February edition of the National Liberty Journal notes that Tinky Winky has the voice of a boy yet carries a purse, is the gay-prize color of purple and has an
A representative for Itty Bitsy Entertainment Co., which licenses the Teubelbies in the United States, said that what Fallowell's newspaper described as a purse is actually Tinky Winky's magic bag.
"The fact that he carries a magic bag doesn't make him gay," Steve Rice said. "It's a children's show, folks. To think we would be putting sexual innuendo in a children's show is kind of outlandish."
Online bookstore offers refunds to customers
Stung by criticism, Amazon.com said it will offer refunds for all books it has recommended and promised to tell customers when a publisher pays for prominent display on the Web site of the world's largest online bookstore.
The changes announced Tuesday followed reports that the Seattle-based company offered publishers advertising packages that affected a book's placement on the site.
for a tee of up to $12,500, a publisher could get prominent display for a book on Amazon's home page, an author profile or interview and "complete Amazon.com editorial review," The New York Times reported.
In a statement, company founder and chief executive Jeff Bezos defended the company's editorial integrity. He said no book is praised unless it meets "our standards," and that "there is no amount of money that would cause us to feature it."
Dartmouth hopes to end single-sex fraternities
Fraternities at Dartmouth College should start accepting women members, officials at the Ivy League institution have decided.
the trustees and college President James Wright said the decision to have the fraternities go coed — and the school's sororites, too — was intended to encourage "respectful relations between women and men" and was part of a broad overhaul of social life at the school. The changes, which the college hopes to begin implementing next school year, were announced in a letter to students Tuesday.
Wright said he and the trustees were prepared to weather the student and alumni opposition they expect from the decision.
ON THE RECORD
More than a third of the college's 4,300 undergraduates are members of 25 single-sex fraternities and sororities.

20 dangers
Hazing and abuse of alcohol have led to heightened concern about fraternities on campuses around the country.
A KU student's credit card was stolen between midnight Dec. 2 and midnight Dec. 3 from an Ellsworth Hall room, the KU Public Safety Office said. The amount charged to the card was undetermined.
A KU student received harassing phone calls early Tuesday morning in his Hashinger Hall room, the KU Public Safety Office said. The caller had not been identified, public safety officers said.
A KU public safety officer was dispatched at 2:24 p.m. Monday to the Computer Center on a report that a KU employee was having a seizure, the KU Public Safety Office said. The man was treated by medical personnel at the scene and transported by ambulance to Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
A KU public safety officer was dispatched to Jaybowl in the Kansas Union at 4:40 p.m. Tuesday on an altercation report, according to a KU Public Safety Office report. A KU student was watching television when another man came in and changed the channel, the report said. The two argued and the student said that the man hit him in the face. No one was injured and no arrests were made, public safety officers said.
A KU visitor's car backed into a KU student's car at 6:50 p.m. Tuesday in 2 on Sunny-side Avenue, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the cars was minor.
A KU student's car had to be towed from a ditch near lot 50, which is to the east of Carruth-O'Leary Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the car was minor.
A KU student's credit card was stolen between 8 a.m. Sept. 1 and 8 a.m. Nov. 4 from an Ellsworth Hall room, the KU Public Safety Office said. The amount charged to the card was undetermined.
A KU student's keys were stolen between 1:35 and 1.38 p.m.Monday, the KU Public Safety Office said. The keys and the key chain were valued at $32.
KJHK show deals with sexual issues
Continued from page 1A
"I want it to be fun, but I want people to be completely comfortable," Scharenberg said. "I don't want listeners to be the brunt of the jokes."
Interviews with organizations such as Planned Parenthood and with doctors and nurses at Watkins Health Center also have been carried out.
Although the co-hosts don't declare themselves experts, they haven't fallen into their role as sex advisers without doing plenty of field research.
The co-hosts also used books, such as "Sex on Campus," and past columns of "Sex Files" in the Pitch Weekly, as additional resources.
But students aren't the only ones listening. Scharenberg said that her mother had listened to the show and that she wanted a program devoted to abstinence.
Both have volunteered for Peers Reaching Others, a group that talks to local organizations about safer sex practices and sexually transmitted diseases.
But that doesn't mean her parents disapprove.
"They're supportive," she said. "They desire my desire to help other people."
Of course, the question lingers: Is Simply Sex simply Loveline?
No. Schierbaum said.

Tuesday's forum last chance for comments on bike lanes
BICYCLE

The city's effort to make Lawrence a safer place for bicyclists is in its final planning stage.
Aaron Bartlett, Lawrence transportation planner, said he hoped students would attend the meeting.
The last meeting for public comments on the city's bicycle/vehicle compatibility study is 6 p.m. Tuesday at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
"I'm hoping we'll get our biggest turnout yet," he said. "We've moved the meeting to the University, and students are one of the bigger groups of biceps users."
Matt Holtkamp, Shawnee senior, said he often rode his bike on city streets.
"Obviously, the situation for bikers is pretty bad," Holtkamp said. "Tennessee and Kentucky streets are both one-way and very fast-paced. It can be really scary for bikers. Everyone has been pressing for bike lanes, which of course is a good idea."
Clay Comfort, chairman of the Bicycle Advisory Committee, said that about a month after Tuesday's meeting, the committee and the consultant conducting the study would present their findings to the Lawrence City Commission.
"The main concern we've heard is about the density of auto traffic, and that the traffic is exceeding the speed limit, which is causing cyclists to feel unsafe," Comfort said. "The degree and number of comments that we've received has really surprised me, pleasantly so."
The commission approved the $24,500 study last summer. Since then, a consultant from TranSystems Corporation, which is located in Kansas City, Mo., has collected data about the physical and operational characteristics of 11 Lawrence streets to create a bicycle compatibility index.
The index measures street characteristics such as width, speed limit and amount of traffic to determine how comfortable the
street is for cyclists. It will be used to determine whether bike lanes, bike routes or bike paths should be created, or if the road should remain as it is.
A bike lane runs beside automobile traffic but is set apart by a painted line, while a bike route is a road marked by a bike route sign. A bike path is a separate trail set apart from vehicular traffic.
"We understood that people felt afraid for their safety, which is why we've endeavored to create compatibility on as many streets as we can afford to do." Comfort said. "Trying to reconcile the feelings of the cycling public with the resources available — that is the trick that we're going to have to figure out how to perform."
Bartlett said that he had been compiling data from public surveys that the city had distributed at the first public meeting Dec. 15. He said that he received about 30 percent of the surveys back. Bartlett will announce the survey results at Tuesday's meeting.
"We're basically in the third phase of this study," Bartlett said. "We've taken a look at the different options, and now we're trying to apply them. The thing is that sometimes to put in a bike lane you have to remove parking. This meeting will give people a chance to say something about that."
The city is studying the following streets:
BIKE LANES
- Connecticut Street (Seventh Street to 15th Street)
- Kentucky Street (Sixth Street to 19th Street)
- Louisiana Street [31st Street to KU campus]
- Naismith Drive (23rd Street to KU campus)
- Tennessee Street (Sixth Street to 19th Street)
- Vermont Street (Seventh Street to 21 st Street)
- Sixth Street (Downtown to Wakarusa Drive)
- Ninth Street (Mississippi Street to Massachusetts Street)
- 11th Street (Mississippi Street to Haskell Avenue)
- Haskell Avenue) 15th Street (east of KU campus)
- 19th Street (Louisiana Street to east city limits)
At Southwestern Bell, we believe the open marketplace works best
It doesn't really matter what kind of service you're providing. Whether it's fresh vegetables or advanced telecommunications,it's been proven time and time again: an open marketplace with fair competition works best.
It works best for vendors, who can draw on their strengths to compete one may have the broadest variety, another, the most efficient service, a third,the lowest prices.
ALEXANDER FIELD
Michael Scott
But even more importantly, an open marketplace works for customers, who may choose a vendor based on their needs.
For more than 115 years, Southwestern Bell has been working to give Kansans outstanding local telephone service. We've done our best to give you the best service and the lowest prices that we could under the regulatory system.
That system changed with passage of the 1996 Federal Telecommunications Act, which was meant to open up the telecommunications industry nationwide.
Since then, Southwestern Bell has been working to show how much more we can do in an open marketplace, given the opportunity.
But the marketplace isn't fulfilling its potential — yet. Kansans are beginning to see some of the benefits of telecommunications competition — but not all of them. For example, Southwestern Bell has invested millions of dollars to upgrade our state's telecommunications network and provide support for innovative new programs in Kansas schools, libraries and hospitals. Today, almost 60 companies may compete with Southwestern Bell for local telephone customers. But even more work must be done to let the free market do its job.
Soon, Kansans should be able to have even more telecommunications providers and products to choose from and the low prices that come with open competition. The Kansas Corporation Commission has a role to play to advance creation of an open marketplace. It's time for us - and every other telephone company that wants to compete - to have that opportunity.It's time to trust in the power of the marketplace.
Southwestern Bell is ready to help move Kansas forward, so customers have access to the benefits of real competition for local and long-distance service.

Ignition interlock system needed to impede repeat DUI offenses
The Kansas House of Representatives is reviewing a bill that would change the consequences and rehabilitation of drivers who receive multiple DUIs. The implementation of ignition interlock devices as consequences for repeat offenders of drunk driving is necessary in Kansas.
An ignition interlock device is a machine that measures the blood alcohol level of the driver. Before a person convicted of more than two DUIs can operate their automobile, they must blow into the device. If the machine detects alcohol, the car will not start. The device also can be adjusted so that the car only will start during certain hours of the day, such as when the person convicted of a DUI needs transportation to go to work.
If someone already has been convicted of driving under the influence while his license is under suspension,
New bill would monitor driving privileges after second drunk driving conviction.
he would have an extended suspension and then one year of driving with an ignition interlock device. If someone has been arrested for more than two DUIs, he also would drive for one year with the ignition interlock device in the car after one year of suspended driving privileges.
State politicians are grappling with the fact that those who already have been convicted of multiple DUIs are still driving, often after drinking. The ignition interlock device acts as a preventive measure against accidents caused by drunk driving.
The device also works as a form of rehabilitation. For drivers who do
not understand the ramifications of driving drunk even after being convicted, the device acts as a watchdog, literally restricting the driver from repeating criminal actions.
The ignition interlock device would not be used for citizens receiving only one DUI. They will continue to receive a suspended license and a fine. The device is aimed at the driver who has repeated DUIs. The driver's license will remain revoked until he or she has shown proof that the ignition interlock device has been correctly installed in his or her vehicle.
Drunk driving continues to be a significant problem in Kansas, as does the number of repeat offenders who continue to drive under the influence. The Legislature's implementation of the ignition interlock device as part of the punishment for driving under the influence would be beneficial to every driver and passenger on the road.

Draft of policy offers due protection
The Electronic Media Subcommittee of Student Senate is on the right track toward enhancing the protection of electronically published information by students, staff and the University of Kansas with its draft of an Electronic Media Policy.
If the policy is enacted, all University electronic publications would be required to follow the guidelines that pertain to all forms of published information. This would apply copyright and trademark laws to electronic publishing at the University.
The policy would force Web page developers to obtain permission to publish the information, graphics or photographs on their pages if someone else owns the copyright. The enforcement of this policy would monitor not only students who may publish non-permissible information on their Web pages, but would protect the University from legal threats.
Suggestions of Electronic Media Subcommitee are worthy of University support.
The subcommittee was formed after an incident involving Academic Computing Services and the Kansas University Campus Internet Association in which the University tried to force the association into removing a link from its site to the Templin Revolution home page.
Although the University had not taken measures to develop an electronic media policy before last semester, it was a decision better made late than never.
The incident was resolved, and the subcommittee was formed to keep future problems from occurring.
Without the ability to check every student's Web page, the University has provided this policy to protect us from committing network offenses. With the policy now complete, the University should take the subcommittees recommendations seriously.

I knew what leadership camps were all about; smiling people and false pledges of Nick's belonging to the group. I didn't want any of that.
Nick
Bartkoski
opinion@kansan.com
Before I left, one of my friends reminded me to keep up my cynicism against the onslaught of false positivity. I hate to admit it, but he was wrong.
Day One
I began the LeaderShape experience by turning to my seatmate on the bus and asking if it was too late to bail. The trip had just started, so the answer was ves, but I had to hope.
My behavior when I meet new people is a very high-octane, energetic introduction to the "Nick experience." I'm somewhat obnoxious and not serious at all, but I try to be entertaining. Still, one of my small group members said later that it left a bad taste in her mouth.
Like every leadership camp, we were broken down into small groups of about a dozen. Our first task was to come up with a group name, which ended up being Future Leadership People or FLP. However, for just a minute, we were almost called SDFOSSSFCT FLPLWQTQF, or Supe-Dupa-Fly-One-Stop-Short-of-Siberia-Freezing-Cold-and-Tired Future Leadership People, Leadershape Wing of the Flying Elvi. This was a total amalgamation of every idea we brainstormed and showed that my group was just a bit wacky.
That night the people in our cabin played an incredibly intense game of spoons. At least one player was accused of unfairly throwing elbows. Another stood up after being eliminated and cried out an explosive.
Dav Two
I talked to people about a lot of really interesting things. It was incredible. I met more people in KU's greek system in one week than I had in three and a half years at the University. I'd like to think that everyone came out with new understandings.
This was a terrible day for me. My high-energy front on Day One exhausted me, so I was emotionally drained.
I also tried to explain to someone that the final night was "cry night." This prompted a large discussion about whether REAL men cry. I found out that I was the only one that believed they didn't, even if I had cried in the past. Still, I swore that there was no way they would catch me crying.
I felt like crap that night. I already felt drained and pretty paranoid. I figured everyone was just humming me until they could destroy me because I assumed that I was disliked. The lowest blow came when we were supposed to have a face-to-face discussion with someone totally different from us. Of course, the person who decided that I was her antithesis was a girl to whom I was attracted. Plus, in the process of talking, I accidentally shared one of my really embarrassing stories from grade school. I NEVER tell those because the moral of those stories is that I was the fat kid no one liked.
After all of that, I went to bed early. I was pretty certain I never wanted to deal with humanity again.
My plan for this day was to avoid people in the hopes I wouldn't upset anyone. It was tough, though. People were trying constantly to engage me in conversation.
I'm not sure how impressive that was I mean, we were all leaders, responsible for reaching
Day Three
out to other people, but they at least chipped the fresh wall I was constructing for myself.
For the first time in my life, I felt like a leader. All the participants were broken into four smaller groups, and we were told to build the largest possible balloon tower with all towers connected. Originally the plan was to build four competitive towers and connect them at the end. I came up with the brainstorm of pooling our efforts for one big tower (it would be tall, and totally connected) and then sold it to the group. The most shocking moment for me was when suddenly the room got quiet while I was trying to convince a group. I got quiet too, and then I was told that the silence was for me to talk. That was a very powerful moment for me.
Dav Four
While some guys were talking in my cabin that night, I made one of my off-the-cuff remarks about how everyone hated me. That comment sparked the group to psychoanalyze me. It made a big impact. The most important thing I learned was that I wasn't the only person who felt alone in the world. Everyone feels that way at times.
We finished the day in our small groups, telling how we felt about each member, I may never forget all of the things I was told. They were some of the most thoughtful and loving things I've heard. There were a lot of common themes: Nick's a funny guy, we enjoy Nick's presence, Nick should give himself more credit. Things I've heard a billion times. But this time, it stuck.
Dav Five
Every other time I've been paid a compliment I made fun of myself, the compliment or the giver, and often all three. This time, I sat and listened.
These people actually cared for me. I figured I would never find a group to which I would feel as close as my family, but those guys ruled.
We sat and talked about what we meant to one another until about 4:30 in the morning.
Day Six
I cried.
This was still an emotional day. We had been writing in journals since day one. On that day, one of the questions in this journal was "How will I maintain energy and balance when I return home?" As I started to think about that question, I realized how important my group was. It hit me hard that I was going to leave them soon, and then I did something I wasn't expecting.
I tried my hardest to hold back, but when my tears finally broke through, it was hard to hold them back. These people that I loved like my family were going home, and although these homes were all around the KU campus, I felt like they were going to be a million miles away from me. I thought I would never see them again.
When I arrived, I had thought I had nothing in common with these people. We came from all sorts of different organizations with a whole lot of differences, and we left from there a family.
I don't know how I'll interact with this group now. Maybe we'll stay in contact forever, maybe I'll see one of them in passing and chat, maybe we won't ever talk again, but for that week, we were a unified whole. We lived and breathed as a group, genuinely loved one another and made some bonds that hopefully will never be broken.
Although I was expecting people to merely humor me, I found that a lot of people knew of me and enjoyed my work on the Kansas. Not only that, but these people seemed to genuinely think I was funny, and these were attractive women to boot. It was just like a Nick Bartkoski fantasy camp.
It would be nice to think the real world could work that way.

Guest columnist brings perfect view
I just wanted to say guest columnist William M. Tuttle Jr., was the most sound view I have read on the diversity requirement. As The University of Kansas enters the new millennium it is important that the University adds the cultural diversity requirement. Without this requirement, I feel this academic institution would not prepare future students for the real world.
Feedback
America is a country that is made up of many different cultures and within these rich cultures exist voices of our past and future. To not require students to learn this is to say all minorities are invisible and it really doesn't matter what you do after you leave the University. What is sad is that I'm surrounded every day by college-educated students
Jessica Gonzales Palm Springs, Calif., senior
Diversity proposal deserved parody
A course in cultural diversity would at least give students an eye-opening look that they probably would not have seen before. It is really disgusting to me to think that many view this requirement as a let's-get-whitie scheme because it is not about the minority against the Caucasian. It is about education and to be educated you must look at the world from more than one view and this requirement would allow this to occur.
The notion that the diversity requirement is above
who are completely blind to reality — the reality that not everyone sees America as justified by their past or current actions.
levity is absurd. I believe Professor Don Marquis' parody in the Feb. 2. Kansan was justified and needed.
No cause is above criticism,
and parody is one of the oldest forms of criticism known to man.
To believe that the diversity requirement stands on a moral foundation that is beyond reproach is to concede that it has no foundation.
Those who find no flaw with their thoughts are those who are not thinking at all. Those who fear criticism for their beliefs are those whose beliefs need to be criticized the most. The diversity requirement is politically correct garbage, and the instant we allow the morally sanctimonious to dictate our education is the instant our education becomes worthless.

Senate to consider fee increase
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Student fees will increase two dollars next fall if a Student Senate committee bill crosses several hurdles.
next week, Senate will consider a bill that would increase the Educational Opportunity Fee from $6 to $8 for students enrolled in more than six credit hours per semester.
The Senate Finance Committee passed the fee increase last night, but the bill must be passed by the full Senate, approved by Chancellor Robert Hemenway and enacted by the Kansas Board of Regents before the increase can go into effect.
The Regents established the $6 fee in 1989 to finance special programs that provide financial aid to students.
Student organizations and academic departments can apply for a portion of the funds for academic scholarships or fellowships during the fall semester.
Aravind Muthukrishnan, Nune-maker senator, said that the fee was good, but that he opposed the bill.
"I'm not a big fan of fees in general." he said.
Nicole Skalla, Senate transportation coordinator and the bill's sponsor, said that there was less than
$300,000 in the Educational Opportunity fund. She said that almost $600,000 is requested each year, but that half of the requests are denied because there is not enough money.
The fee increase would generate an estimated additional $40,000.
"The $6 has not kept up with inflation because it hasn't been changed for 10 years," Skalla said. "Even after the fee increase, that's still not going to cover the amount of people asking for money."
The fees also provide funds for need-based grants, including awards to students with special expenses, such as child care or groups of under-represented students.
In addition, the fee helps fund salaries or grants for students participating in public or community service programs and for students employed by campus student services programs such as tutoring.
Skalla said that she was not sure if Senate was allowed to implement a fee increase at the University because the Regents passed a common fee for all Regents universities.
But, she said that she would present the bill to Senate and try to get the chancellor's approval.
"If the students are willing to tax themselves an extra $2, I don't
STUDENT SENATE
In other business, Senate committees passed the following legislation last night:
A resolution that would support
A resolution that would support the establishment of student representatives for minority groups at Bin 12 universities
A bill that would provide $4,897 to fund the Engineering Student Council's Expo '99 on Feb. 26.
■ A bill that would give $0,000 to the KU Lecture Series to pay the talent fee for a speaker of "international recognition" in April.
A bill that would provise $4,600 to the Asian American Student Union to fund the Asian American Festival in March.
A bill that would give $475 to the International Student Association to help finance International Student Awareness Week.
think the Board of Regents will be unhappy. "Skalla said,
She said that if Senate passed the bill and the chancellor approved it, the Regents must review it by March 1.
In order for the fee increase to take effect next fall, the Regents must vote on it in April, she said.
Burn unit offers 'sense of home'
Rv T. J. Johnson
By T.J. Johnson Kansan staff writer
Burnett Burn Center, the only burn unit dedicated exclusively to burn victims in the Kansas City Lawrence area, is now open and serving patients at the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Anne Cramer, director of the burn center and associate professor of plastic surgery at the Med Center, said that the burn unit was an upgrade from the old unit, which had been unchanged since its opening in 1973.
"It will offer the same care patients originally had, but in a much better environment." Cramer said.
shared bathroom.
According to Cramer, the original burn unit had a hospital-ward environment, with patients separated by curtains and a single
The new unit, which officially opened Jan. 21, provides private rooms with bathrooms for patients and offers accommodations for their families. Cramer said.
The center features the Huribut Recovery Pavilion, named for a former burn center patient who donated money for its construction. The pavilion has facilities for families to cook dinner or relax with patients. It offers a sense of home for burn victims. Cramer said.
"It is a brand new, beautiful space with lots of light," she said. "It should help make the stay here more enjoyable."
According to Bob Hallinan, media relations coordinator for the Med Center, the $1.5 million facility has more than 15,000 square feet
of space, making it three times the size of the old burn unit.
Cramer said that the new unit was the only burn center in Kansas City and that the one in Wichita was the next closest.
The unit was named for Gene and Barbara Burnett, who donated money to start the original unit in 1973 and originated the idea of opening a comprehensive burn center while visiting the Med Center. The Burnets were unavailable for comment.
The burn center also includes a rehabilitation unit for patients, a gym and a children's playroom.
Cramer praised the unit's focus on family.
"I think it will be one of the nicest mid-sized burn centers in the country," she said.

Possible year 2000 problems not hindering air travel plans
But telephones and Web sites for travel accommodations have been busy, and reservations have gone without a hitch, local travel agents and airline officials said.
Kansan staff writer
Beverly Toltner, owner of Lawrence Travel Center, 1601 W. 23rd St., said the software used by the travel industry had been fixed. She also said that her agency was booking many package tours for the New Year.
Totten also said that most of the companies offering special tours for New Year 2000 were charging higher rates.
Harriet Matthews, owner of River City Travel, 3300 W. 15th St., said that fear of the millennium bug had not deterred travelers.
"It's a little early for reservations for just air travel," she said. "Most people only book 3 or 4 weeks in advance. But nobody's really avoiding travel."
Mark Allen, Lawrence travel agent, said that he had not booked any flights for the New Year, but his employer's computers would allow those bookings to be made.
"Our systems are Y2K compliant," said Allen, a travel consultant for
Allen said he would avoid traveling on January 1 because of the potential for technological problems.
Council Travel, 622 W.12th St..
"The bug could cause power shutdowns because the computer wouldn't understand how to deal with the last two digits of the new year." Allen said. "If a plan is in the sky when the year changes over, it could just shut down."
John Dillard, assistant director of Academic Computing Services, said that such fears were unfounded.
"I think the airlines are a good example," he said. "If they'd done nothing, there would be chaos. But they didn't sit on their thumbs. No airline is going to take the risk of putting up an airplane that's going to fall out of the sky."
He said major organizations and corporations, such as airlines, were better at addressing the millennium problem because they generally had more time and money.
Many KU students also aren't afraid of the possibility of millennium chaos or computer shutdowns.
"I figure they should be able to figure it all out," said Crispian Paul, Wichita sophomore, who is planning to travel to Mexico City for the holiday.
José Carlos, Saa Ramos, Spain graduate student, said he didn't know what his holiday plans would be.
"If I do travel, it'll be to Spain to visit my family," Carlos said. "I don't think anything catastrophic is going to happen. All the worry about the millennium is just silly."
Airline/millennium compliance
Not all airlines are fully compliant for the year 2000. The FAA deadline for full compliance is June 30, 1999.
for full compliance is June 30, 1999.

Face-lifts planned for sorority, fraternity houses
Sigma Chi being redone; others to follow
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
Within the next year, millions of dollars in renovations will change the way several fraternity and sorority houses look.
The Sigma Chi fraternity house,
1439 Tennessee St., is undergoing
a $3.5 million overhaul, which
began this semester.
"We are completely renovating the inside structure of the house," said Mike Unruh, Junction City junior and Sigma Chi president. "All rooms will be rebuilt with totally different setups."
The project includes a redesign of the upper two floors of study suites. Unruh said improvements would include adding private bathrooms to third-floor rooms. The house's third floor has primarily been reserved for upper-classmen.
"This will make it more appealing for seniors to stay in the house," Unruh said. "It'll be more like living in an apartment with
the benefits of a fraternity house."
the benefits of a fraternity house." The basement, which had been used for bedroom space, will serve as a study area, including meeting rooms, six separate study rooms and a computer room.
Unruh said that the renovation would update the house and make it more appealing to students.
Technological improvements, including the installation of an Ethernet system, would allow fraternity members more computer and Internet access.
Although the number of members the house can accommodate would decrease, Unruh said that the living space would be more comfortable. The house's capacity will decrease by about 10 residents after renovations.Before the renovations,the house could accommodate 92 people.
Sigma Chi fraternity alumni have donated more than half the renovation costs. A Lawrence fund-raising company, Pennington and Company, was responsible for gathering about $2.5 million in donations.
Grant Kaufman, Pennington and Company vice-president, who oversaw the campaign, said that alumni across the nation were supportive of the renovation.
"The alumni were loyal, interested and very excited to help
out," Kaufman said. "They feel greek living is important to university life and they were very receptive to improving it."
Sigma Chi fraternity members are living in the former Alpha Omicron Pi house, 1510 Sigma Nu Place, while the Sigma Chi house is being renovated.
"The house isn't what we are used to do, but we've adapted the living quarters to make it comfortable." Uruh said.
Unruh said he expected members would be able to return their house in mid-August.
In addition to Sigma Chi, four other KU greek houses also have planned renovations.
Meg Godderz, graduate advisor for greek programs, said that Chi Omega and Alpha Chi Omega sororities were in the planning stages and that Deita Chi fraternity and Pi Beta Phi sorority had already done renovation fund raising.
John Garner, Delta Chi fraternity president, said that house renovations would start next fall semester and cost $1.75 million.
"We are going to add a new wing on the back, including a library, and add air conditioning and Internet access in every room," said Garner, Cape Gerard, Mo., junior.

KU students named as scholarship finalists
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has finalists for the Truman Scholarships for the first time since 1995.
The Truman Scholarships, which were first awarded in 1977, are national awards based on public service and the desire to go into the help the community.
Buddy Lloyd, Tulsa, Okla., junior; Melinda Carden, Lenexa senior, and Jane Stoever, Overland Park junior, will compete for the scholarship, which will be awarded March 26.
Lloyd said that he was amazed he was selected because more than 800 students apply for the scholarship each year and only 200 become finalists. Only 85 scholarships will be awarded.
Lloyd said that his proposal focused on consumer protection from insurance groups. He said that consumer advocacy was something he wanted to focus on in his career.
The applicants had to include a public policy solution proposal in their applications for the scholarships, which pay $3,000 for senior year tuition and $27,000 for three years of graduate school.
Louis Blair, executive secretary for the Harry Truman Scholarship Foundation, said that the foundation looked for students who sought careers helping their communities.
Lloyd restarted the KU chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union, and is now president. He said that his involvement in the group was part of the reason he was picked.
"They're looking for people who like to cause problems, and here at the ACLU, we love to cause problems," Lloyd said. "In a good way, of course."
Mary Klayer, assistant director of the University honors program, said that the
University had a good crop of candidates.
"They're all very passionate about what they're doing," Klayder said. "I have no doubt they will have successful careers in public service."
Carden started the Intergenerational Program at KU a year ago. The group links college students with senior citizens who live in retirement communities or cannot leave home often.
She also argued that long-term care reform should be a priority in Kansas.
Stoever, who has volunteered for eight years with her church, said that her English major might have been the reason that she stood out from the rest of the applicants. She said that she thought most of the applicants had majors that involved politics.
Kansas State University also fared well in the competition, with three of its applicants making the finals. Oklahoma State University and the University of Texas each had two finalists, and the remainder of the Big 12 Conference universities had four in all.
Barbara Schowen, director of the honors program, said that the state's success in this competition could be caused by an increased focus on the Truman Scholarships by KU and K-State.
KU hasn't had a Truman Scholar since 1995.
Klayder said that KU had a lot of good candidates this year because the mindset at the University was different.
Ann Phelps, senior reader for the finalist selection committee, said that the entire applicant class had been good this year.
"I think that there's a great interest in public service on this campus right now," she said.
"It was everybody's consensus when we got together at the end of the reading that this was a very strong group," she said.
Furniture store moves downtown
By Kelly Clasen Special to the Kansan
Before a new upscale furniture store could open in Lawrence's 93-year-old former post office, Michael Violante had to rip up the orange shag carpet and update the building.
Violante, the managing partner of Interiors, 6245 New Hampshire St., said that he was glad the building was available for his store.
He said that before the opening on Nov. 27, the building underwent major renovations to achieve its new look, which needed to match his furniture collection that he described as eclectic.
Orange shag carpeting was
removed from the lobby of the building, and glue was sanded off to reveal the building's original marble-floor lobby.
Other parts of the building also were restored, including the hardwood floors and the large panes of glass overlooking the furniture showroom.
"The building complements the business, and the business complements the building," Violante said. "People come in here to see the building and the store both."
The historical building that stands on the northwest corner of Seventh and New Hampshire Streets has been home to a variety of businesses since the building's completion in 1906.
The building originally was
home to the first federal building in Lawrence and then to KU Continuing Education. It is now Interiors furniture store.
Continuing Education operated its fire service training, public service mail room and academic outreach program production out of the building. The orange carpeting belonged to KU.
"We wanted to consolidate our locations," said Bob Senecal, dean of Continuing Education. "The old post office was one of five buildings we moved out of."
Senecal said that with the help of the University, Continuing Education was able to sell the building and use the profits to purchase a new building, located at 1515 St. DrensDr.
Violante said he wanted to sell user-friendly furniture at Interiors.
He said that there is a mixture of new and antique European and American furniture pieces for sale, as well as imported accessories, such as rugs from Turkey.
"We find that we're getting business from Kansas City and Topea, as well as Lawrence," he said.
Violante said that although he did a lot of remodeling to update the building, that he was glad that the Continuing Education had occupied it before Interiors.
"It was good that the college got this building. They kept it alive," he said. "It's just a wonderful old building."
Talk to focus on plantation architecture
By Jeremy Johnson Special to the Kansan
Magnetic speaker. Creative thinker. Well-known writer. Excellent scholar. This is how some University of Kansas faculty describe the George Washington University professor speaking on campus tonight.
city professor speaking on campus tonight.
John Vlach, professor of American studies and of anthropology at GWU, will give a lecture title, "The Strength of These Arms: Endurance, Creativity, and Authority in the Plantation Landscape," at 8 p.m. in the Spencer Museum of Art Auditorium.
The focus of the lecture will be Vlach's research on plantation architecture and how enslaved African-Americans used plantation landscape as a tool of resistance against slave owners.
Patrick Frank, assistant professor of art history, worked with Vlach while a student at GWU. He said that Vlach was an expert in vernacular architecture — the culture of non-elite people.
"They would learn about one of the most significant and destructive institutions of our history."
Dennis Domer Associate dean of architecture and urban design
"His research is on the cutting edge," Frank said. "He has new ground he's exploring with his research."
Vlach was considered one of the country's leading authorities on African-American buildings and material culture, said Dennis Domer, associate dean of architecture and urban design. He also said that students would find Vlach's message valuable.
"They would learn about one of the most significant and destructive institutions of
our history." Domer says.
Vlach also is the director of the folklore program at GWU. He has written a number of books and has spoken frequently throughout the country.
His books include "The Afro-American Tradition in Decorative Arts" and "Back of the Big House: The Architecture of Plantation Slavery."
Charles Eldredge, professor of art history, said that he was familiar with Vlach's work and was pleased that the speaker is coming to KU.
"He will give a stimulating approach to material that has been undervalued and underappreciated." Eldredge says.
Vlach is this year's third Humanities Lecture Series speaker sponsored by the Hall Center for the Humanities at KU. The final speaker in the series will be Patricia Williams, professor of law at Columbia Schoolof Law, New York City. She will speak on March 15 in Woodruff Auditorium at the Kansas Union.

Some senators plan to acquit Clinton
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Three Republican senators declared yesterday that they would vote to acquit President Bill Clinton of both articles of impeachment — the clearest sign yet that the charges would fall far short of conviction.
Sens. James Jeffords of Vermont, Arlen Specter of Pennsylvania and John Chafee of Rhode Island — moderate lawmakers from the Northeast — were the first Republicans to announce opposition to both articles, perjury and obstruction of justice in the Monica Lewinsky scandal.
At the same time, a Democratic drive to censure Clinton sputtered under Republican opposition.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein of California said that if GOP leaders thwart efforts to force a vote, she might simply draft a statement condemning the president's behavior and circulate it for senators to sign.
Jeffords said enough Republicans may vote against the articles of impeachment to keep the final roll calls today or tomorrow short of
even 61 votes, although he subsequently softened his prediction.
"The pressure is coming on to get a majority," he said.
A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott said there had
been no attempt by the leadership to line up votes for conviction.
Lott, R-Miss., who issued a statement at mid afternoon, said that the evidence "shows that the president has committed perjury and obstructed justice. The only question left is, will the Senate vote to find him guilty of committing these high crimes."
Clinton: Conviction beginning to look unlikely
P
Only a constitutional two-thirds — 67 votes in the 100-member Senate — could convict and oust Clinton, the second president in history to be put on trial.
Sen. Slade Gorton, R-Wash., has said that he will vote to convict Clinton for obstruction but to acquit perury.
Chafee stepped to the microphones in late afternoon and said that when it came to obstruction of justice, "circumstantial evidence in each of the cases is rebutted by direct evidence or by confusion."
With solid support among the Senate's 45 Democrats, the president has long been out of danger of conviction. Failure to deliver a simple majority for either article in the Senate, controlled by 55 Republicans, would be a stinging repudiation of the case that the GOP House voted to take to trial and its 13 prosecutor-congressmen argued to the senators.
Gorton said Tuesday night that he would vote for Clinton's conviction on the charge of obstruction of justice, but not on perjury.
With Clinton's acquittal assured, Democrats continued their campaign for a formal vote to censure the president after the trial. But Republican opposition seemed to be stiffening, and Specter said censure would violate the constitutional doctrine of separation of powers.
"There's been very little mention of censure" in the closed-door deliberations, said Sen. Bill Frist, R Tenn. "To me, the push for censure is losing steam."
Democratic leader Tom Daschle said he was hoping for at least a procedural vote before lawmakers adjourn for a week-long vacation — a roll call that would allow Democrats to go on record condemning the president's behavior while acquitting him at his trial.
With Chief Justice William Rehnquist presiding, the Senate spent a second day behind closed doors, senators taking turns delivering their final statements. Lott told reporters at a midday break that 26 to 28 lawmakers had spoken at that point. He said he hoped a final vote still was possible by late today.
Rescuers search for avalanche survivors
At least 10 people already found dead at French ski resort
The Associated Press
CHAMONIX, France — Rescue workers used dogs and sensors yesterday in the search for survivors of avalanches that swallowed mountain chalets and killed at least 10 people near this popular ski resort.
A 12-year-old boy who spent hours trapped under the snow before being rescued early yesterday lost both his parents in one avalanche, police said. The boy, whose identity was not made public, was being treated for hypothermia in a hospital.
At least two people still were missing a day after the avalanches roared down a mountainside
between the Alpine villages of Le Tour and Montroc-le-Planet. The dead included four children, one a 4-year-old girl.
Twenty people were pulled from the snow alive, including two from the United States.
"I've seen many avalanches, but not the type that come into your house and blow it away," said Nathan Wallace, 28, from Mammoth Lakes, Calif., whose chalet was hit by one avalanche. "It was more like a California earthquake."
Wallace and his girlfriend, Alicia Boise, 21, were rescued two hours after the roof of their chalet collapsed.
“It’s as if there has been an earthquake, only everything is covered in snow,” said Blaise Agresti, commander of a mountain police brigade that worked through the night to find survivors. “The avalanche had incredible force. I was stuned.”
Two new avalanches struck the Chamonix area yesterday, officials
said, but no injuries or property damage was reported.
Tuesday's avalanches destroyed 17 chalets.
"The chalet next to ours disappeared—it was pushed across the road," said Jean-Marie Pavy, 49. "There were blocks of cement and gravel everywhere. It was the apocalypse."
A search also was underway yesterday for a 28-year-old British skier who disappeared in an avalanche Tuesday near the French Albs resort of Courchevel.
Snow continued to fall in other parts of Europe, forcing evacuations and stranding thousands in Switzerland. Austria and Germany.
Up to 16 inches of snow fell in parts of the Swiss Alps overnight and the danger of avalanches remained high, officials said.
In parts of the Austrian province of Tyrol, thousands remained trapped by record snowfall, with some unable to leave for the fifth day, and snow continued fall in

Federal judge orders pilots back to work
American Airlines pilots stage sickout strand thousands
The Associated Press
DALLAS — A federal judge yesterday ordered American Airlines' pilots to end a slickout that has forced the cancellation of more than 2,000 flights.
U. S. District Judge Joe Kendall told the pilots to return to work today and warned they could be held in contempt if they don't stop calling in sick en masse.
The sickout was prompted by a dispute about when pilots from newly acquired Reno Air will be upgraded to the pay scale of American's regular pilots.
The strife at the nation's second-largest airline has resulted in travel delays for more than 200,000 passengers since Saturday.
In issuing a temporary restraining order barring the pilots from calling in sick en masse, the judge chided both sides and told them to resume negotiating.
"It's silly for us to even be here. It's like killing a gnat with a sledgehammer," he said. "If you would look up bad labor relations in the dictionary, you would have an American Airlines logo beside it."
A representative for American's parent company, AMR Corp., said the company believes the pilots will abide by the judge's order.
"We have never questioned a pilot that has called in sick. We just hope they will all get better soon," Chris Chiames said.
The president of the pilots' union was in a meeting and not immediately available for comment.
During a court hearing today, AMR attorney Dee Kelly said the airline is losing money every day of the sickout. American pilots are barred by federal law
from striking about the issue of the Reno Air nilots' nav.
Talks about the Reno Air issue stalled last Friday. The next day, many pilots began calling in sick and refusing to fly voluntary overtime.
The pilots union said the abnormally high number of sick calls was a rational response to the stress the labor dispute creates for individual pilots, and noted that safety regulations require pilots to stay home if they consider themselves under too much stress to fly.
In court papers, American Airlines argued that the pilot union's advice to members to stay home was a sign the union was, in effect, pushing an illegal sickout.
The number of cancellations has escalated each day. On Tuesday, more than 800, or 36 percent of its 2,250 daily flights, were canceled, delaying 73,000 travelers. Wednesday, it was estimated that 40 percent of the flights, or roughly 900, had been canceled.
"Today we have 2,077 pilots on the sick row," airline representative John Hotard said.
American's 9,400 pilots, represented by the Allied Pilots Association, said AMR should add Reno Air pilots to its roster more quickly, thereby moving all employees up on its pay scale.
AMR said that it will take about 12 to 18 months to move pilots into their new positions and that the union's demand for pay raises would cost as much as $50 million this year.
Across the nation, would-be passengers spent hours dozing on luggage carts or slumped in their chairs. From Miami to San Francisco, blinking blue letters on airport monitors read "Canceled" beside a long list of destinations.
"If this were to happen in Argentina, they would burn the airport," said Beatriz Chichizola, a native of Buenos Aires who waited for hours Tuesday at the Los Angeles airport.
Congressmen introduce legislation to protect stranded air travelers
Bill would force airlines to pay when passengers are delayed
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The chairman of the House Transportation Committee wants airlines to pay if they keep passengers stranded in airplanes, as happened earlier this year in the snowbound Midwest.
Rep. Bud Shuster, R-Pa., included the requirement in multifaceted passenger rights legislation he filed today.
Under terms of the bill, airlines that held passengers for two hours or more would have to repay them twice the value of their ticket. Passengers held for three hours or more would receive three times the value of their ticket, and the same trend would hold true for passengers held four hours or more.
"I can't walk through the chamber or go to the House gym without members coming up to me and telling me the horror stories that they have had, that their constituents have had, in dealing with the airlines," Shuster said.
The bill filing comes five days after two senators introduced similar legislation to define passenger
rights. The bill by Sens. John McCain, R-Ariz., and Ron Woyen. D-Ore., would require airlines to give passengers 48 hours to cancel tickets that now are nonrefundable.
Much of the legislation stems from complaints after snowstorms stranded travelers in Detroit during the New Year's holiday. In some cases, passengers were stuck on planes for eight hours or more within view of the terminal because the planes either could not take off or could not pull into a gate.
The legislation also would require airlines to explain why flights are delayed.
Shuster said the decision by American Airlines pilots to call in sick and refuse all overtime this week, creating travel delays and cancellations for thousands of travelers, shows why such legislation is needed. The pilots and American's management are clashing about compensation for pilots after the airline's recent acquisition of Reno Air.
Airlines have said the regulations are unnecessary and misplaced. They complain that they cannot be held accountable for bad weather or the unavailability of gates.
"I say a pox on both their houses. I think they don't give a damn about the traveling public," Shuster said. "I think that you need to do whatever it takes to get their attention."
Navy will destroy ship to avoid oil spill
COOBS BAY, Ore. — Navy explosives experts boarded a grounded cargo ship yesterday in a race to set fire to the vessel before an approaching storm is able to break it up and cause a disastrous oil spill.
Authorities decided to burn the ship rather than try to save it, concluding it was the only way to spare Oregon beaches from the heavy, tar-like bunker fuel remaining inside the New Carissa.
"We are significantly concernée the ship will not stay together," said Coast Guard Capt. Mike Hall. "We're between a rock and a hard spot. If we don't do something now, we would have to stand before you and tell you why we let 400,000 gallons of oil spill on our beaches."
Already, cracks in the hull of the 639-foot ship have leaked oil across miles of coastline.
The Associated Press
The decision to set fire to the ship was made after it became clear that salvage crews could not budge the vessel free before a storm was
"It's the best show in town," said Danny Martin, a longshoreman who was part of a growing crowd that gathered on the shoreline bluffs to watch.
Plans called for removing huge cargo hatches on the deck and using small explosive charges to crack open the fuel tanks, allowing the fuel to flow into the cargo holds and burn more freely.
Authorities said such burns have been conducted safely in Alaska and other parts of the world.
It could take a couple of days to burn off the fuel. Afterward, the charred steel hull will be hauled to the beach, cut up and removed.
The ship, owned by a Japanese company and registered in Panama with a crew of 23 Filipinos, ran aground last Thursday morning 150 yards offshore.
Pounding surf opened up cracks in the ship's steel hull Monday, and
expected to slam the coast late last night with 70-mph winds.
Explosives experts were flown by helicopter to the deck of the ship to prepare it for an afternoon burning.

three of the ship's five fuel tanks, containing 140,000 gallons, ruptured, causing streaking oil along six miles of beach.
The ship is aground in an area known as the Lebert Hole, considered a prime crab-fishing area. It is near an area where the Western snow plover, a threatened shorebird, lives.
About 200 people mobilized along the southern Oregon Coast to clean up the oil. Several birds have been coated with fuel.

Gas problem stumps KU officials
Lindley lab without steady pressure flow
By Lori O'Toole Special to the Kansan
Problems with natural gas pressure in a Lindley Hall lab have sent KU officials on a hunt for cause of the safety hazard.
Mike Russell, director of Environmental Health and Safety, said that the inconsistent pressure had caused problems in the lab where students used natural gas with equipment such as Bunsen burners.
"In their research projects, the sample gets collected in a glass tube, and they use a lighted Bunsen burner to seal it off." Russell said. "Poor gas flow or inconsistent flow could ruin the seal."
Russell said there was not a large safety risk.
"It's not like the building is
going to explode or anything, but they need consistency," he said.
The problem emerged at a fourth-floor laboratory and was reported midway through fall semester by Valery Terwilliger, associate professor of geography.
Robert McColl, professor of geography, said that he was concerned about safety in the lab.
"If it's fluctuating, it's not safe," McColl said. "When you’re dealing with gas and a flame goes out, you’ve got a room full of gas. That’s clearly a danger for breathing or for a stray spark."
The inconsistent gas pressure also may be a reflection of a larger problem. Russell said he was working with facilities operations to investigate all possible causes.
Mike Richardson, facilities operations director, said his plumbers were checking old pipes that may have restricted the gas flow. Furnaces on Lind-
ley's roof that require gas in large amounts also were thought to be burning much of the system's gas.
In addition, plumbers and the gas company will be analyzing a main gas meter at 15th Street and Naismith Drive. Owned by the Kansas Public Service gas company, the meter is scheduled for a change during spring break.
"That could solve all the problems." Hoag said.
The ultimate solution could be taking the lab off the city's gas and operating it with a propane cylinder to allow for more precise gas regulation.
"It's one of those problems that takes awhile to pinpoint," said Mike Labonte, plumbing supervisor for facilities operations.

KU football 'Hawks can't stop Nebraska
walk-ons battle hard aim for glory
By Michael T. Rigg
Kansan sportswriter
Charlie Hoag's battle began nearly two years ago, during his senior year at Shawnee Mission West High School. Hoag declined offers for significant playing time at smaller schools and decided to walk on at the University of Kansas.
Hoag spent his freshman year as a red shirt and ran plays from the scout team. Last year, Hoag's football career started
looking up when he was listed on the depth chart for wide receivers and traveled with the team. Still, Hoag didn't catch one pass last season.
KU
Nineteen new walk-ons are taking the first step toward becoming the next Charlie Hoag. At an organizational meeting for Spring 1999 walk-ons, Jayhawk administrative assistant Rob Bowkls gave the 19 perspective Jayhawks the rundown on what he called the easiest walk-on program in the United States.
The current walk-ons are informally working out until spring practice begins March 30.
A walk-on only has to be accepted into the University as a full-time student, take a physical exam, and sign the insurance and NCAA compliance forms, Bowlks said.
WW
He decided to walk on at KU instead of taking the smaller schools up on their offers because he wanted the thrill of playing in front of a big crowd, Chandler said.
Like most walk-onns, Chandler was a red-shirt in 1995, his freshman year. But unlike the other guys, Chandler played in all 11 games in 1996, his freshman year of eligibility. He led the team in receiving his sophomore year and last season caught 21 passes for 236 yards.
Chandler fell victim to numerous injuries during his senior season of high school, including a shoulder injury and a broken foot, so the only offers he received were from smaller, Division II programs. Chandler said.
This year's walk-onss have a long road ahead of them, Bowlks said. Almost all walk-onss are redshirts in their first year. Coaches start taking serious looks at them by the time their second year of practice rolls around. However, that doesn't mean they'll ever play in a game or earn a scholarship, Bowlks said.
"I just wanted to come in and prove to myself as well as everyone else that I can play Division I football," said Chandler. "But I've been surprised by the success I've had so far."
"Although some players will never step foot in a game, I think they just want to be part of a big-time program," he said.
Hoag said that walk-ons don't take the beatings that so many fans think they do.
"We don't go through that much pain," Hoag said. "The other players treat me the same as everyone else."
But being a walk-on doesn't always mean four years of football obscurity. On last season's team, eight former walk-ons were on scholarship. Among these were starting offensive guard Justin Glasgow and wide receiver Michael Chandler.
Kansas also doesn't put its walk-ons through a strenuous training program. "If you came in here and said you wanted to walk on, I wouldn't ask you how fast you could run. I wouldn't ask you if you could bench press 10 pounds. I'd just tell you your reporting date," Bowlks said.
"Once you get in there and do the same thing as them day in and day out, they treat you the same." Chandler said.
Doing the same thing as the big-time recruits is what it's all about. Haq said.
"When you're on the field, wearing the same uniform, and standing on the same sideline as everyone else, no one knows who's on scholarship and who's not." Hoag said. "They just know that you're a Kansas football player."
Chandler agrees.

KU men's loss makes season's third in Big 12
The low-scoring first half was a result of poor shooting and sloppy play from each team. Kansas shot 35 percent from the field, including 2-of-11 from three-point range, while Nebraska connected on 34.5 percent of its field goals.
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
See CORNHUSKERS on page 3B
Nebraska center Venson Hamilton scored six points as the Cornhuskers
Nebraska had 12 steals and forced 20 Kansas turnovers. Nebraska forward Larry Florence scored 14 of his 17 points in the second half, and center Venson Hamilton added 17 points, eight rebounds and four blocks.
The Allen Fieldhouse mystique is officially a thing of the past.
The Nebraska Cornhuskers overcame an 11-point second-half deficit to defeat Kansas 64-59 for the first time at Allen Fieldhouse since the season of 1982-83. The loss also marked the first time the Jayhawks have lost three games at home since the 1993-94 season.
In a game dominated by scoring spurts, the Cornhuskers used an 11-4 run to sweep the Jayhawks for the first time since 1982-83, coming back from 55.53
"The confidence of our opponents is higher than it's ever been," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "They feel like they can come into the Fieldhouse and beat us on any given night."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that the Jayhawks' poor shooting and sloppy play could be attributed to the Cornhuskers' tenacious defense.
"Their team speed and quickness is something that is extremely important to them." Williams said.
Seniors plan to lead successful team
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
For any team hoping to put together a winning season, it must have strong leadership. The four senior leaders on the Kansas baseball team appear ready to lead and ready to win.
Chad King, Chad Schuster, Sparky Wilhelm and Chris Williams arrived at Kansas through different paths. But now that they are here, and two days away from kicking off their senior seasons, they are ready to give it all they have for this team to win.
KU
"The four of us make a real good unit together, and our leadership spreads down to the younger classes." Williams said.
Chad King: Last opportunity for post-season play
Williams, a right-handed pitcher from Edmond, Okla., has been at Kansas his entire college career. As a freshman, he was thrust into the lineup immediately and was rewarded for his play, being named Big Eight pitcher-of-the-week early in the season.
KU
As a sophomore, he led the staff in earned run average during Big 12 conference play and assumed more of a leadership role based on his freshman experience.
Wilhelm said that he agreed with Williams sentiments of leading by example, and that this year's team revolved around everybody assuming their roles and carrying them out to the best of their ability.
Wilhelm has also been at Kansas for four years and has enjoyed success much the same as Williams. Hailing from Topeka, Wilhelm played in 35 games as a freshman
Last year, Williams again made several appearances and pitching well, posted a win against perennial powerhouse Oklahoma State.
Chad Schuster: Closeness of team helps play
"You've got to have leadership." Wilhelm said. "And with the four seniors, we all have the personality where we don't want to sit back and watch. It's time for us to sten up and lead in our own ways."
This year, Williams looks to be more vocal and provide the team with a good example of how to work hard to achieve goals.
"Ijust try to lead by example and show the younger guys that the work I've put in allows the results to take care of themselves." he said.
Chris Williams:

and started 18 of them.
This year, Wilhelm said he was optimistic that the team can do well and that he, personally, would continue to become a better baseball player and do whatever is necessary to help the team win.
As a sophomore, Wilhelm found his home at third base, starting 31 times, and began to provide more offense.
Last year, Wilhelm was one of the leaders of the team and hit a career best. 325,
despite missing five games because of injury.
Sparky Wilhelm
Third Base
"It's not something we're going to try to do," Wilhelm said. "It's something we're going to do."
King and Schuster both came to Kansas from junior colleges. Going into their second season as Jayhawks, both said they realized it was their last opportunity to make it to the post-season.
King, from Gainesville, Fla., had an immediate impact upon his arrival at Kansas. As a junior, he started in 24 games and hit five home runs.
Last year, King suffered a shoulder injury that caused him to sit out the season.
Now at 100 percent, King is eager to get the season going and is hoping for good things to come.
"I've never been to a post-season tourna
ment and I would really like to go. If I don't do it now, I'll never do it." King said. "It doesn't matter if I hit .800 this year and get drafted in the first round for $10 million, if we don't go to the post-season, I never will."
Schuster, who transferred from a junior college in Glendale, Ariz., appeared to be ready to make some noise early in his junior season before a knee-injury from a line drive ended that notion.
Coming back from his knee injury has prompted Schuster to lead by working hard and showing what it takes to win.
"I think the closeness of this team has made it easier to lead," Schuster said. "This year seems a lot closer than last year and that helps a lot."
Kansas baseball has a tradition of strong senior leadership, and the list does not appear to stop here. The four men that wear the senior label this year are determined, and perhaps destined, for success. Only time and their play will tell.
"I'm not going to lie," Williams said. "My personal goal is to win a National Championship and this is my last shot to do it, so I'm not going to sell myself or my team short. That's my main goal."
The baseball season opens Saturday with Kansas facing Texas-Arlington in Arlington.

There are those who don't like valentines.
In case the endless propaganda hadn't tipped you off, this Sunday is Valentine's Day — the time of year when we shower our loved ones with cheap chocolates and overpriced roses. Among other things.
Love for the game. Love for the team. Love for the fans (Well, that's what they say). Love for the money. More love for the more
fact that they don't have someone to love. But In the sports world, we don't have that problem. There is plenty of love to go around.

Like I said, plenty of love.
But even in a world consumed by so much adoration, there are some sports folks who could use some extra Valentine's Day cheer. I mean, what the heck, it couldn't hurt. So, last night I got out the address book and the red pen and...
"Happy Valentine's Day Chicago Sports Fans — It was fun while it lasted."
For the past seven years the Chicago Bulls dominance of the NBA has made it easy for our friends from the Windy City to forget how wretched the Bears are.
With Michael on the links and Scottie on the Rockets, the Bulls should be one of the NBA's worst teams — making them a nice fit alongside the Bears and the Blackhawks. But cheer up Chicagoans, It's Valentine's and, well, maybe Mike McKaskey will find something better to do.
"Hey Peter Zezel, hope the leg gets better and have a great Valentine's!" Zezel, an aging and rather mediocre backup center for the Vancouver Canucks, is my roommate Dom's favorite player and is currently on the disabled list. He just wanted to let Pete know we're thinking about him.
Get well soon, #25 and Go,
Canucks!
"Big Eight Basketball: I was remembering the good ol' days and thought of you. Maybe we can get back together..."
While the Texas schools finally started to earn their keep this fall on the gridiron, they continue to plague our once-proud basketball conference.
I just can't see any of the Texas schools, with the exception of Texas, ever being able to win consistently or establish a reputation. How can anyone get excited to watch Baylor play...um...anybody?
I miss you Big Eight basketball
Please come back home baby
To Anna Kournakova, tennis star
and goddess: Lots of husbands and kisses.
Okay, so she probably doesn't need any cheering up and already has another Valentine.
But it was worth a shot.
"Happy Valentine's Day Kansan readers, I love you too."
The Kansan sports desk recently received an e-mail from a friendly student who was, shall we say, rather upset by some of my more controversial musings.
Apparently, Mr. Crimson and Blue was so angry that he has wanted to "literally punch" me a few times when he saw me on campus.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 11)
What starts out as a game with friends could turn into a serious project. The difficulties you run into in solving the project will make you all stronger, and more closely bonded. You're lucky in March, especially where money is concerned, so if you are going to spend, buy the very best. You should be able to afford it. In April, study is required, so you can lead your friends through a maze. Delegate in August to a person who thinks a tough job is easy. Your best leader in November doesn't talk much, but December is full of fun and games. Just make sure you don't spend too much.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Todav is a 6
Something you learned in the past is going to be very useful today. If a situation comes up that you've seen before, go back to the previous time. Look at how it worked out then. If you botched the job, put in the correction.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6
You're worried about money again, and the anxiety you're experiencing may actually be getting in the way of having the problems dissolve. Isn't it funny? how this happens? Sometimes worrying about a thing makes it stick in place so we can't ever get past it.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5
A bold move today could be disastrous. Advise your partner not to do it. Its important to have all the facts, but you don't need to tell them all yet. Somebody once said that discretion was the better part of valor, and today that's certainly true.
Cancer (June 22-July 22) Today is a 5
If you notice your job is no fun anymore, maybe that's because you've taken on too much. There are no extra points to be gained for working yourself to death. Do the things you're good at, and delegate the rest to somebody else.
Leo (Julv 23-Aua. 22): Todav is a 7
you might be tempted to take a risk. There's a great opportunity there, but one consequence you hadn't considered: Something that seems abundant will turn out to be scarce. So, if you're betting on there being more of it, you'll lose, if you're bet the other way, you'll probably win.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 6
Beware of a deal today that looks too good to be true. It is. There's a barrier in the way. Strangely enough, this could refer to a clog in your plumbing, or to your mate not doing something around the house he or she promised to take care of. If any of the above transpires today, be a good sport.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6
You've just about learned enough to put new skills to work on a household project. This could be fun, especially if you've got a partner with a little more experience. Don't think you have to finish the whole thing today, however.
Saqittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6
Your losses today could be even greater than yesterday, so take care. Concentrate on bringing money in, rather than spending it. One thing you’ll gain plenty of today is experience. You don’t have to learn everything the hard way.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6
Suggestion (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Today it's a You could be wondering where you'll get the money to take the vacation you're planning. The conditions in effect right now are most likely keeping you stuck at home for a while. Instead of being frustrated, use this to your advantage.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 6
Today, you're going to go through a bit of a cleanup
phase. Get rid of whatever you don't need so tomorrow
you can get new stuff. If it's emotional baggage
you're carrying around, just dump it. You'll be

Aauarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Todav is a 6
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 6
be careful today with your money. You could be surprised at how fast you wind up going through it. Once there was plenty of it, but soon enough there won't be enough.
P
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5
Remember to be respectful today, even when you don't feel like it. If somebody else doesn't understand where you're coming from, don't let it bother you. What this person is missing is something that's pretty obvious to you, and to some of your friends. Be gentle when you point it out.

Former football player arrested for assault
SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
Redmond, 21, a junior from Lee's Summit, Mo., was arrested after allegedly punching and kicking holes into the walls of a closet of a woman's apartment.
COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State's Jimmy Redmond, who was kicked off the football team because of legal problems, also may lose his spot on the track team after being charged early yesterday with criminal damaging and assault.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
SCORPIUS
OHIO STATE
The police report also said that
Redmond grabbed the woman,
threw her to the ground and caused an abrasion on her nose.
Pollice said
when they arrived, Redmond produced an altered or fake ID.
Redmond, a reserve flanker on the football team last fall, was kicked off the team last month after his arrest on charges of drunken driving, menacing, operating a vehicle under suspension and reckless operation. His trial on those charges is scheduled to start Feb. 19.
Redmond, a spinter, subsequently joined the track team. At the time, track coach Russ Rogers said he would not permit any more problems from Redmond. He said Redmond would sign a list of 10 requirements to stay in good standing with the team.
"If he doesn't follow those rules, then we're going to kick him off the track team." Rogers said two weeks ago.
Bucks pay $70.9 million for six years with Allen
fish
MILWAUKEE — Milwaukee Bucks guard Ray Allen signed a $70.9 million, six-year extension yesterday, becoming the highest-paid player in the team's history.
R
Allen negotiated directly with team owner Herb Kohl, a senior senator from Wisconsin.
Although Allen didn't have an agent, he did hire celebrity lawyer Johnnie Cochran at $500 an hour to look at the contract. The deal was finalized yesterday, according to a source familiar with the contract.
Allen, who saved at least a 5 percent commission — $3,535,000 — to pay an agent, said last week that Kohl agreed to pay him the maximum salary allowed to a third-year player by the new collective bargaining agreement: $9 million to start, with annual raises of 12.5 percent.
That works out to $70.9 million throughout six years, the same contract recently signed by Kobe Bryant, Alien Invision, Shareef Abdur-Rahim and Antoine Walker, all three-year stars who would have been eligible for free agency after this season.
Allen's deal surpassed the $68.25 million contract that Glenn Robinson received as the top pick in the 1994 NBA draft.
Allen met with Kohl late last month and said he was satisfied not only with the offer but also with the owner's commitment to building a championship contender in Milwaukee.
New coach George Karl was delighted that Allen worked without an agent.
"Contract negotiations are simple stuff now," Karl said last week.
Gifford to leave ABC as pregame show host
NEW YORK — Frank Gifford is being forced out at ABC after his contract expires in June, according to a published report.
Gifford, who spent 27 years in the "Monday Night Football" broadcast booth before Boomer Esiason replaced him last season, was switched to the pregame show.
According to the Daily Variety, the network and Gifford are talking about other roles within ABC Sports. Network officials are considering a major overhaul of the pregame show.
Dierdorf's departure was thought to be a cost-cutting move. Reportedly, Gifford's salary was higher than Dierdorf's.
Gifford's agent, Ron Konecky,
said he had not been informed of a
change in Gifford's role. An ABC
spokesman declined to comment.
The news came less than a week after Gifford's former partner, Dan Dierdorf, left ABC after the network decided not to renegotiate his $1.7 million-a-year contract.
Gifford is the only person to be in the NFL Hall of Fame as both a player and a broadcaster.
Fox's baseball analyst switches to Yankees
McCarver, the lead baseball analyst for Fox's national broadcasts, will work about 42 games for WNYW, the Fox affiliate that will televisie Yankees games this season.
NEW YORK — Tim McCarver will be introduced as a broadcaster for the New York Yankees next Tuesday, according to a source at Fox Sports.
McCanar, who was fired by the New York Mets last week after 16 years as the team's analyst, was replaced by Tom Seaver.
WNYW general manager Mike Wach expressed interest in bringing McCarver on board. The major hurdle was receiving Yankees

owner George Steinbrenner's approval, which has been given. McCarver's agent, Bob Rosen, said Tuesday that he still had no spo
"It's not a done deal," Rosen said. "We haven't even begun negotiations yet; but Tim is interested and I'm just waiting for the call."
Baseball legend's son has yet to visit father
NEW YORK — Joe DImaggio Jr.,
who is living in a trailer in Northern
California, hasn't seen his
father in about two years,
despite his father's illness.
DiMaggio Sr., 84, was released from a Florida hospital Jan.18 following 99 days in intensive care. He developed life-threatening pneumonia following lung cancer surgery.
"You know, I never got the words, 'Come now,' or I would've been there in a flash," said DiMaggio Jr. in an "Inside Edition" interview. "When he wants me there, I be there."
DiMaggio Jr., who went to Lawrenceville prep school in New Jersey and Yale, works in a junk- vard.
"I'm glad he's better," DiMaggio Jr. said, "I love him and just all of the things that are felt but never said between people."

The Cornhuskers countered with an 11-0 run of their own, including six points in 30 seconds, to claim a 24-21 lead with 2:22 remaining in the first half. Kansas guard Jeff Boschee hit his second three-pointer of the half to send the Jayhawks into the locker room tied 26-26.
Robertson and center Eric Chenweth combined to score the Jayhawks' first eight points of the second half as they took a 39-32 lead after five minutes. Nebraska closed to within 41-38, and the Jayhawks used an 8-0 run to take their biggest lead of 49-38 with 8:19 remaining.
"We kept trying to put them away, but they just kept clawing back," Chenowith said.

Carey Cochran's three-pointer with 2:42 left gave the Cornhuskers a 56-55 lead that they would never relinquish.
The loss was especially hard to swallow because the Big 12 Conference leader, Texas, lost its second league game of the season to Oklahoma on the same night.
Kansas, 16-7 overall and 8-3 in the Big 12, had an opportunity to pull
even with Texas, but after the loss fell into a second place tie with Nebraska, Missouri and Oklahoma.
Williams said he thought Nebraska deserved more recognition as a good club than it's received.
"You've got give Nebraska a lot of credit," Williams said. "They are a very good basketball team, and they showed it tonight. It's about time they start getting some recognition in this league."

Missed free throws translate into missed opportunities
By Marc Sheforgen
Kansan associate sports editor
For a team noted for its fundamentals, the Kansas Jayhawks were very disappointing last night in what may be the most basic facet of basketball — free throws.
In the game's final four minutes, the Jayhawks shot 3 of 8 from the line. The team shot 57.1 percent from the line for the game.
In what some may describe as a choke, Kansas relinquished a four-point lead in the game's final four minutes. Had the Jayhawks made their free throws, they likely would have won.
With 3:37 remaining in the game and Kansas up 53-51, Markowski fouled Kansas' Nick Bradford, sending him to the line for two shots and a chance to extend the
"They missed some free throws that probably meant four or five possessions where they left the door wide open for us," said Nebraska forward Andy Markowski.
Kansas lead to four. Bradford, who shot a paltry 1 of 6 from the line all night, missed both foul shots.
"One of 6 from the line, that's horrible. There's no excuse." Bradford said. "That's at least four or five points that we should have had."
The Jayhawks lost the game by five. 64-59.
With 1:17 remaining and the Cornhuskers ahead 58-55, the Jayhawks' leading free throw shooter, Ryan Robertson, stepped to the line to shoot two. Robertson, who coming into last night's game was shooting 88.2 percent from the line, missed both shots.
"Good shooters miss sometimes," Robertson said. "I was 10 of 14 (from the line last night), which isn't bad. I just missed the last two. It wasn't like I air-balled them, they were in and out and there's nothing I can do."
free throw shooter, missed a pair. Nebraska rebounded and were fouled. Larry Florence of Nebraska made both his charity shots and sealed the Cornhusker victory.
Still later in the game, with the Jayhawks down three and only 24.2 seconds on the clock, freshman Jeff Boschee, a 76.7 percent
"They felt good and everything." Boschee said of his last two free throws. "I don't know, I just kind of choked at the end."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said that this year's team practiced free throws more than any he has coached.
Kansas forward Nick Bradford agreed, saying that the team practices under simulated lategame situations, such as after sprints when fatigue is high. Still the Jayhawks, who prior to last night were shooting just 64.7 percent from the line this season, failed to connect when it counted.
"It's not failure to practice," Bradford said. "It's just being able to able when the game is on the line and knock them down. I didn't do that tonight."

Commentary
Even at low point, Tyson still has fans
American society has fallen in love with the underdog. The classic idea of the rags-to-riches story has permeated every area of our culture, especially the world of sports. It seems as if every year, we learn of an athlete who clawed his way out of the depths to the highest levels of competition. May it be a result of our desire to see
nate succeed or our collective disgust with those people that have been handed everything all their lives. Either way, we, as a culture, want to see the meek inherit the earth.
sports@kansan.com
In recent months, we
Randy Withers
have seen several Cinderella stories draw the attention of the national media. There was Chicago Cubs slugger extraordinaire Sammy Sosa, a man who fought his way out of the poverty of the Dominican Republic to mount a legendary assault on the major league's home-run record. The Atlanta Falcons are another example. Here's a team that leveled its sights on the NFC, and when the dust had cleared, the Falcons had toppled the 49ers and rumbled to their first-ever Super Bowl.
The media spotlight has fallen on another of these stories, but because of a hero's tragic flaw, not his triumph. Former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson was ordered to return to prison earlier this week for a parole violation. The once proclaimed "baddest man on the planet" is now a 32-year old convicted rapist whose career is in shambles and may be finished.
Tyson is among one of the most intriguing and beguiling figures in professional sports today. After being pulled from the streets of Brooklyn, N.Y., and into the gym by a social worker, his rise through both the amateur and professional ranks was meteoric. He was the youngest heavyweight champion ever at 20 years old and was the first man to unify the WBC, IBF and WBA titles since Muhammad Ali. Tyson was most-feared man in sports before he was of legal drinking age.
It all began to fall apart after the death of his mentor and adoptive father, legendary trainer Cus D'Amato, the only true role model he had
ever known. Without the only person that had ever looked out for him, Tyson fell victim to the seductions of money, alcohol, women and fame. Tyson's world came crashing down. In Tokyo, James "Buster" Douglas defeated Mike Tyson in 1990.
But the real troubles were yet to come for Tyson. He was convicted of raping a contestant in a beauty contest that he judged. The verdict was, at the very least, questionable. It was his word against hers — one of the most recognized men in sports versus an aspiring model with no evidence to support either party. True, Tyson's character and temper are prone to a lack of control, but those qualities don't necessarily make him a rapist. Guilty or not, he served three years in prison.
Tyson emerged from prison and immediately went into training. After a series of warm-up fights, he fought Evander Holyfield twice. The most notable thing to come out of the two losses was the chunk of Holyfield's ear that Tyson bit off during their second bout. As a result, Tyson's license was suspended by the Nevada Boxing Commission for a year. Then, in December, he was involved in a fender bender that led to a physical confrontation and, ultimately, his return to jail.
Tyson's tale of money, success and fame is unique. His is the ultimate rags-to-riches story, which is part of the reason people line up to see him. But it is also the self-destructive aspect of Tyson's personality that is so intriguing. It's sad, but spectators watch him just as much for his skills as to see what he will do next. People watch to see him destroy others as well as himself.
The blame for Tyson's attitude, his lack of morals and social skills, and his misunderstanding of society doesn't lie solely with him. That's not to say that we all had to be told not to bite a person's ear off. My point is that Tyson lost everything — his titles, his fame, his aura of invincibility and his dignity — all because he never had anyone to teach him how to be a functioning member of society. All he had was his trainer. He never had a father to teach him not to trust other people with his money. He never had a mother to teach him how to treat women. He never had a family to teach him compassion. He just didn't know any better.
Withers is a Shawnee sophomore in journalism.

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Precise running forehands. Aces at up to 125 mph. Untouchable overhead slams. Pete Sampras hardly looked like a guy coming off a 10-second sabbatical.
Returning from his longest layoff since high school, Sampras had 11 aces — at least one in each of his service games — in a 6-4, 6-4 win against Galo Blanco that took exactly one hour Tuesday night in the first round of the Svbase Open.
Sampras, who had not played since Nov. 28, lost just one point on his first serve in the entire match.
"I really felt my tennis tonight was going to be up and down, because I hadn't played in a while. But it's like riding a bike, you don't forget how to do it," he said. "I was a little surprised. I thought I might struggle a little bit tonight."
Sampras went more than a month without picking up a racket during his break. Instead, he played golf, pumped iron and
took a vacation — his first in years — to Hawaii that included snorkeling and whale watching.
JAMES HORNER
Exhausted after playing six straight weeks at the end of last year to protect his No.1 ranking, Sampras took the break to refresh himself physically and mentally. He said it worked.
"I'm fresh, and when I'm
fresh I'm dangerous, "said the top-seeded Sampras. "When I'm tired is when I'm vulnerable."
Third-seeded Mark Philippoussis slammed 13 aces, including second-serve aces at up to 116 mph, in a 6-7 (2-7), 7-5, 6-3 win against Sargis Sarsgian. The third set of the 2-hour, 11-minute match included anguished screams by Philippoussis and
Jim Courier, who once went to tennis tournaments confident he'd be playing in the late rounds, now struggles just to get past the first round. On Tuesday he lost 6-4, 7-6 (7-4) to 102nd-ranked John van Lottum.
racket throwing by Sargsian.
Once ranked No. 1 in the world, Courier knows reaching such a pinnacle again "would be close to a miracle now."
"I'm heading off into the sunset. I'm not sure how long my ride is going to continue," Courier said. "But this is my life. I'm enjoying the ride as I go along."
Van Lottum won five straight games to take control of the first set. In the second set tiebreaker, the Dutch player served and volleyed to reach match point, and then finished the contest with an ace and a scream of delight. Van Lottum said his strategy was to avoid trying to match Courier's still-considerable power.
"He plays well, but he plays with one rhythm. So if you know how to control his rhythm with slices
and high balls, he has difficulty with that," van Lottm said. "He's beaten a lot of good players, and he can still play top tennis on certain days."
The first time Courier played in this tournament, in 1992, he was on his way up. In fact, by reaching the final that year he became No. 1 for the first time in his career. He ended up spending 58 weeks at No.1.
Now he's ranked just 68th in the world, but Courier is not ready to think about the end of his career.
"I think I have some great stuff left, I wouldn't be out here if I didn't think I could still play good tennis," he said. "I just have to get the momentum going my way. Once I get (deep) into a tournament, I tend to play well."
Cecil Mamiit, one game from elimination, won the last five games of his match to rally past Kenneth Carlsen 2-6, 6-3, 7-5. Mamiit, the 1996 NCAA singles champion from Southern California, already has won two ATP Tour matches this year — equaling his career total before 1999.
McGwire ready to play, wants 500 career home runs
The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — The St. Louis Cardinals hope Mark McGwire isn't their one and only story line again.
McGwire's record-smashing 70 home run season took the focus away from an underachieving team that needed a big September to finish four games above .500. This year, there's the countdown to 500 career home runs as a distraction. McGwire needs 43, which should be a slam dunk considering he's topped 50 each of the last three seasons.
"It's a good number." McGwain said. "It's been my statement all along that I've surpassed any expectation I've ever set out to do. To reach 500 is just remarkable and God willing, it'll go on and on."
McGwire usually downplays baseball's obsession with numbers. Not this one.
"It's a prestigious number and nobody talks about it." McGwire said. "Eighteen or 19 players have done it. That's not too many out of the thousands that have played this game."
Still, this time around, no matter how many homers McGwire hits or how far they fly, the fans will probably want more.
"I like this club better than I've liked it the last two years," Cardinals' manager Tony La Russa said. "We're not a great club, but we're capable of playing very good."
McGwire generally approves of the Cardinals' offseason moves, except that they didn't fill their top need by signing a No. 1 starting pitcher and fell about $40 million short in the Kevin Brown sweepset. Matt Morris, 7-5 with a 2.53 ERA in about a half-season and entering his third season, is the nominal No. 1 on a fairly anonymous rotation that will also include lefties Donovan Osborne, Darren Oliver and Kent Mercker.
"We've got a really nice pitching staff, but for them to realy relax and fall into place we need a No. 1 work horse that'll take the pressure off," McGwire said. "If you put the label of No. 1 starter on one of those guys..."
La Russa is philosophical about the hole that wasn't filled. He knows the farm system should supply future potential star starters Rick Ankiel and Chad Hutchinson soon.
"I think for this year the gigantic starter would make us better, but I'm not sure it would be good for us down the road," La Russa said. "We've got these young kids coming."
"I don't know, to invest that kind of money might have really hurt our chances to round our club out every year."
ST LOUIS
CARDINALS
The key everyday acquisitions in a lineup in which only McGwire and center fieldier Ray Lankford opened last season are shortstop Edgar Renteria, right fielder Eric Davis, second baseman Carlos Baerga and relicter Ricky Bottalico.
Renteria, a 23-year-old star on the Marlins' 1997 World Series champs, stole 41 bases last year and will bat leadoff. The only downside to Davis, the American League comeback player of the year after recovering from colon cancer, is his age: he'll be 37 in May. He was four in the AL with a .327 average and had 28 homers and 99 RBIs.
Baerga is a gamble considering his yearly slide in production since 1996 and his bloated appearance last year with the New York Mets. But he's only 30 and the Cardinals are hoping the salary cut he took (he just finished a six-year, $21.4 million contract and will make $1.25
million this season) will motivate him to regain the All-Star form he showed with the Cleveland Indians in the early to mid-90s.
Bottalico is healthy after missing most of last year because of bone chips in his elbow, and could allow Juan Acevedo, who led the team with 15 saves and didn't allow a run in his last 16 outings last season, to move to the rotation.
The other calculated risk is handing a regular job to left fielder J.D. Drew, who was impressive to say the least in a September audition (.417 average, five homers and 13 RBIs), but has just 14 games of major-league experience. Batting second ahead of McGwire gives him an excellent chance of succeeding because he should see plenty of pitches to hit.
"It wasn't a fluke," McGwire said. "He's got a nice stroke. People in St. Louis and around baseball will be impressed."
Darren Bragg, a free agent pickup who replaces departed utility man John Mabry, is expected to get plenty of playing time backing up Davis. Bragg hit .299 with eight homers and 57 RBIs last year for Boston.
The likely lineup card for the April 5 opener against the Milwaukee Brewers: Renteria, shortstop; Drew, left field; McGwire, first base; Lankford, center field; Davis, right field; Fernando Tatis, third base; Baerga, second base; Eli Marrero, catcher; Mornar, pitcher.
Pitchers and catchers report today, with the first full-squad workout Feb. 24. McGwire plans on arriving early, and he's not the only one.
"I'm always itching and to go," McGwire said. "What it tells me is I still love this game of baseball, and I want to play as long as I can. You always get excited at this time of the year."

76ers go unbeaten; Iverson in slump
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Allen Iverson's eyes still light up when he gets the ball in his hands. His expression changes once he releases it.
The ball goes up, and Iverson winces like a player in a major shooting slump.
Still, the Philadelphia 76ers' star point guard is having fun lately. But it has nothing to do with 40- or 50-point games. The surprising 76ers are unbeaten even though Iverson is missing 73 percent of his shots.
"Who knows what will happen when I play a good game," Iverson said. "Whenever that may be."
The 76ers, 3-0 for the first time since 1984, are winning with defense and balanced scoring. Even Iverson can't believe it. Since Philadelphia made him the No.1 pick in the NBA draft in 1996, Iverson has been a raw, relentless scorer.
He had little help in his first two seasons, and the 76ers kept losing.
While making a push for the rookie of the year award in 1996, he made plenty of enemies when he broke Wilt Chamberlain's record with four straight 40-point games. He scored 50 points in
Cleveland in the record-breaking game, leaving a hostile crowd with no choice but to give him a standing ovation.
76ers
Of course, the 76ers were well out of the playoff hunt by then, lending credence to Iverson's reputation as a supposedly selfish player who cared only about his statistics.
Now, Iverson's too busy winning games to worry about numbers even if his numbers are atrocious.
"When I came out and was scoring all those 40- and 50-point games, we
were losing every time because nobody else was getting involved. I can't come out and score 35, 36 points every night and then come up with L's. I mean, we need other guys to play basketball," Iverson said.
Apparently, the 76ers listen to their 23-year-old leader.
A swarming defense is anchored by twin twnes Theo Ratliff and Matt Geiger, who combined for eight of the team's season-high 13 blocks in a 90-86 victory against the Detroit Pistons Tuesday night. Harvey Grant, one of the top defensive forwards in the league, kept Grant Hill under control and had four blocks.
Hill, coming off a career-high 46 points against Washington, scored 32 points against the 76ers on 11-for-18 shooting. Iverson had 19 points, but was 6-for-20 from the field. He's averaging only 16.7 points and has made only 15 of 55 shots in the three games.
"I'm resorting back to my high school ways where I used to miss shots and get frustrated," Iverson said. "These last three games have been tough offensively for me, but I was just trying to do the other things on the court, just stay involved with everything."
Rookie Larry Hughes has looked overmatched at times, but he came off the bench to score 16 points against the Pistons.
Coach Larry Brown's decision to move Tim Thomas from the startling lineup to the bench has paid off. Thomas had 10 points in 15 minutes Tuesday night after scoring 13 points in 14 minutes in a 95-75 victory against Orlando in the home opener.
Iverson, whose nickname is "the Answer" because his line of shoes bears that name, isn't the only one any more.
"I'm happy. I'm not frustrated at all," Iverson said. "As long as there tomorrow, everything's all right with me."
Poor start, injuries turn up heat in Miami
MIAMI—The Miami is losing players faster than it can win games, and at this rate, it'll become the first team in Pat Riley's 17-year coaching career to miss the playoffs.
The two-time defending Atlantic Division champions were touted during training camp as NBA title contenders. But with two starters sidelined by injuries, the hobbling Heat hardly looks like a team ready to step into the void left by the breakup of the Chicago Bulls.
The Associated Press
A 1-3 start is the worst in Riley's four years at Miami, and the league's abbreviated 50-game schedule makes the situation more alarming.
"The season's too short to dig such a deep hole," forward P.J. Brown said. "We need to get out of it real quick. This team has enough here to get the job done. We're a little down right now, but we believe in what we have."
What the Heat has is a shortage of manpower and firepower. Forward Jamal Mashburn, who appeared on the brink of a breakthrough season, had a deep knee bruise diagnosed on Tuesday. The bruise is expected to sideline him for four six weeks, roughly half the season. Guard Voshon Lenard could miss the entire season with a stress fracture in his leg discovered last month.
In their absence, AllStars Tim Hardaway and Alonzo Mourning are trying to carry the offense, with dismal results. Hardaway is shooting 35 percent, while Mourning is shooting 43 percent with 17 turnovers and three assists.
"It has been almost 2 1/2 years since we had
MIAMI HEAT
this kind or doubt," Riley said. "Since two of our key guys aren't here, we've got to get a game we can play that's a little bit different now that's going to be effective."
riley considered acquiring Latrell Sprewell before the season but opted not to make a blockbuster deal. As a result, his
options to replace Mashburn and Lenard are mostly unappealing. There's Keith Askins, Mark Strickland, an aging Dan Majerle and three newcomers: Clarence Weatherspoon, Terry Porter and Mark Davis.
Although the offensive options look bleak. Riley is more concerned about breakdowns in areas that have traditionally been Miami's strengths.
"Our defense and rebounding simply have to get together," he said. "We're having a lot of mental lapses in those areas right now. Teams are getting right to the rim on us, and that can't be tolerated."
The Heat always counts on Riley to find a solution. Last season, the team went 26-8 without Mashburn in the starting lineup and 17-9 without Mourning.
But at the moment, a team that hoped to reach the NBA finals for the first time in franchise history is playing poorly. Miami will try for a turnaround beginning tomorrow against Toronto.
Ditka to receive more heart tests
The Associated Press
The Associated Press
NEW YORK TIMES
NEW ORLEANS — New Orleans Saints coach Mike Ditka plans to have further testing done on his heart as a precautionary measure after receiving treatments earlier
to correct an irregular heartbeat.
Ditka: Tests won't prevent him from coaching
Ditka, 59,
revealed his most recent heart problem Tuesday during an interview in Chicago. He gave no indication that his
recent condition will prevent him from coaching a third season with the Saints.
("The heart) went out of rhythm, and I had to get it shocked back into rhythm," said Ditka, who was scheduled to return to New Orleans today. "But I feel pretty good. I've been working out every day."
Ditka said he would have an angiogram performed soon to check for possible blockage in his heart and the valves and arteries that surround it. The treatment he received Feb. 2 was an electric shocking of the heart used to correct irregular beats.
"I want to get an angiogram, and then make sure I don't have any blockage," Ditka said. "If I have blockage, then I have to get done what has to be done whether they have to bvpass it.
"I feel good. But I'm not going to assume anything, because Dan (Reeves, Atlanta's coach) felt good. Then all of a sudden he didn't feel good."
Reeves had quadruple bypass surgery performed Dec. 14, one day after experiencing unusual sensations in his neck and chest during a game against Ditka and the Saints in the Superdome.
Ditka experienced a fluttering sensation in his chest about two weeks ago, Ditka's wife. Diana, said.
Ditka was examined by a cardiologist recommended by Saints team physician Dr. Charles Brown, Diana Ditka said. That was when the irregular heartbeat was detected.
The Saints coach was placed on blood thinners in preparation for the Feb. 2 procedure, known as cardioversion.
"What happens is your heart flutters," Diana Ditka said. "So it gives you a little bit of a sensation in there. It's like an anxiety attack. That's what he was feeling, and that's why he decided to get checked."
"It's a common thing when you have a heart disease, which he has. It's not major, and it only took a couple of hours to do it. He felt fine afterward. This is totally preventative medicine, really." she said.
On Nov. 2, 1988, Ditka suffered a heart attack while he was head coach of the Bears. The attack required an angioplasty procedure to clear a small blocked valve located in the rear of his heart.
Ditka missed just one game before returning to the sidelines and then completed a 12-4 season in which he was named NFL Coach of the Year.
Diana Ditka said her husband has been remiss in having regular medical checkups since joining the Saints on Jan. 28, 1997. But his situation is nothing that will prevent him from coaching this season.

Temperamental Kansas weather chills students
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
KU students woke up yesterday to a blustery, chilly reminder that it is still winter in Kansas — despite springlike temperatures Wednesday.
Paul Frantz, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Topeka, said that the high was in the 30s yesterday, a sharp drop from the 70 degree range the day before.
He said that a cold front brought thunderstorms into Lawrence near 7 a.m. yesterday. Rain changed into snow as the temperature dropped from 65 degrees at 6 a.m. to the low 30s later in the morning. With the wind chill, the temperature was 1 below zero.
Many students were left wondering what was going on.
"I didn't think it would snow," said Joe Rader, Sacramento, Calif., senior.
"I just thought it would rain all day. I'm from California, and I hate the cold."
Some students from Kansas had their own ideas about why the weather changed.
"I had to unpack my winter clothes again this morning when I saw the weather," said Jeff Engstrom, Junction City sophomore. "But it's just typical Kansas.
Mickey McGuire, KU weather lab manager, said that the rapid weather changes were typical for the month.
"Temperatures in February swing a lot," McGuire said. "It's just the extremes in Kansas."
He said that yesterday's temperatures were not out of the normal range for this time of year.
McGuire also said that if spring came sooner this year, other weather patterns, such as tornadoes and thunderstorms, could be accelerated as well.
"An earlier severe weather season is a possibility," he said.
Not all KU students were upset about the falling temperatures yesterday. In fact, some were glad to see the abrupt change after so many days of above-average temperatures.
"Ireally wish it would stay cold for awhile," said Katie Durst, Albuquerque, N.M., freshman. "I saw the weather report yesterday, and I was hoping that it would get colder, considering that people were wearing shorts."
Anna Clarke, Seattle graduate student, also was happy that the mercury dropped.
"I'm from Seattle," she said. "And I thought it was supposed to get cold here in the winter. I want the snow to stick, so that I can use my cross-country skis."
Frantz said that students should get used to the changing temperatures — that's how the weather works in Kansas.
"You can get these changes in Kansas in the spring," he said. "Spring does seem to be coming a little early this year."
Frantz said that a warming trend would begin this weekend, with temperatures in the mid-50s to low 60s tomorrow and low to mid-60s Sunday.
Another small cold front will cross the state Monday, pulling temperatures back into the 50s.
Franzt said that the weather could again change abruptly on Tuesday, when there is a chance for rain.
Chris Drayer, Chicago junior, said that he wanted it to get warm because he was ready to take his boat out on the lake, but that he also enjoyed the fluctuating temperatures.
He said that he liked it when he didn't know what was going to happen.

Senate closes deliberations; votes to be cast

WASHINGTON — With acquittal assured, the Senate talked its way through a third and final day of closed-door deliberations, yesterday, setting the stage for today's climactic noontime votes in the case that one Democrat called "this sordid saga."
At President Clinton's impeachment trial yesterday, a steady stream of lawmakers came forward to announce their intentions for the roll calls on perjury and obstruction of justice, dividing largely along party lines on presidential guilt or innocence but officials.

"There can be no doubt that President Clinton's conduct has made a mockery of most of his words, or that his example has been corrosive beyond calculation to our culture and to our children," said Gordon Smith (R-Ore), who said he would vote to convict.

St. Lawrence sponsors fourth sexuality forum
Abstinence and intimacy will be the topic at the fourth-annual forum on human sexuality at 4 p.m. today at Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
The forum, called "Sex by Knight," will be sponsored by the St. Lawrence Catholic Campus Center, 1631 Crescent Rd., and will feature Father David Knight, author and pastor of Sacred Heart Church in Memphis, Tenn.
"What we're trying to do is to show college students another alternative to sexual activity," said Tracey English, marketing director for St. Lawrence.
The event is free for students.
High schoolers to visit for journalism contest
The regional contest for the Kansas Scholastic Press Association will bring more than 1,000 high school journalism students to the University of Kansas today.
Last year, about 3,000 students competed at six regional sites, and the number for this year is expected to be higher.
KSPA's regional contests will be held at six sites statewide. Prospective journalism students from 31 high schools in northeast Kansas will compete at the Kansas Union.
"This grows every year," said John Hudnall, executive director of KSPA and lecturer in the School of Journalism. "I think this speaks highly of journalism in the state of Kansas."
The competitions will be divided into three classifications: enrollment categories 1A-2A, classes 3A-4A and 5A-6A.
In each contest and three enrollment categories, the first, second and third place winners and three honorable mentions will compete at the state competition May 1.
"The competitive aspect is certainly essential in this most competitive age."

Hudnall said. "But I think even more important is the learning associated with such an activity."

Homeless man arrested for stealing loaf of bread
A homeless man, who would not identify himself, was arrested for stealing a loaf of bread at 3 p.m. Wednesday from First Christian Church, 1000 Kentucky St., a Lawrence Police report said.
Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said that the man had asked the police to discuss the French Revolution with him.
Fake ID investigation concluded, police say
The bread loaf was valued at $1.45.
The investigation into the manufacturing of fake identification cards at the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity house, 1537 Tennessee St., has been concluded, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police interviewed various people, including fraternity members, about the equipment used for making false driver licenses that was found Jan. 15 in a room at the fraternity house, Wheeler said.
The information they found was compiled in a report and sent yesterday to the office of the District Attorney, who will determine what charges will be brought in connection with the case.
Police to investigate altered documents
Police have begun an investigation into unauthorized purchases and altered payroll documents in the Office of Minority Affairs at room 145 in强 Hall, said Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office.
Although they have just begun the investigation, the falsifications occurred between March 1, 1988 and Nov. 28, 1998. Bailey said.
Auditors for the University and Comptroller's Office employees responsible for payroll are assisting in the investigation, Bailey said.
"We have a paper trail to follow," he said. Bailey said he could not reveal more details about the case while the investigation was in progress.

Experiments on mice promising for cancer
BOSTON — Government scientists finally have managed to duplicate a Harvard doctor's success with an experimental cancer treatment that wipes out tumors in mice, and they plan to begin human testing by the fail.
NATION
The closely watched developments involve a natural protein called endostatin.
It and a sister protein called angiostatin both work — at least in mice — by blocking tumors' ability to sprout new blood vessels.
This makes cancer fall dormant or disappear atterogether in lab animals. But no one knows if the same thing will happen in people.
Yesterday, another team of NCI researchers said it had begun designing endostatin studies in humans. The NCI wants to test the drug for safety in perhaps 10 to 30 patients with tumors of the breast, kidney, skin or other parts of the body.
Nuclear arms priority Russian minister says
WORLD
MOSCOW — At the height of Russia's financial meltdown, the minister named to save the economy outlined an overriding priority: build a new generation of nuclear missiles.
Communists, nationalists and liberals alike agree that Russia must stake everything on its nuclear forces if it wants any claim to be a world power and have any kind of credible military.
The warning from First Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Masiulyukov, first made in October, that Russia could lose its nuclear capability, has produced rare unanimity among the country's bitterly divided political factions.
The huge arsenal of rockets, planes and submarines that once terrified the world is falling apart, and there is no money to maintain it or build large numbers of replacements.
"The only thing for which Russia is respected in the world and which makes us worthy partners ... is our strategic rocket forces," said Alexander Lebed, a former general and a leading presidential candidate.
Women lawmakers call Italy court sexist
ROME — Women lawmakers wore jeans to Parliament yesterday, and Italy's highest appeals court was accused of sexism after ruling it is impossible to rape a woman wearing jeans.
The Court of Cassation ruled Wednesday it was impossible to take off tight pants like jeans without the cooperation of the person wearing them and said it was impossible if the victim was struggling.
The decision overturned the 1998 conviction of a 45-year-old driving instructor in southern Italy, Carmine Cristiano, for raping an 18-year-old student. A lower court had sentenced Cristiano to two years and eight months in prison, but the appeals court said the girl must have consented to sex and sent the case back for retrial.
ON THE RECORD
Alessandra Mussolini, a deputy of the rightist National Alliance who led yesterday's protest, called the ruling shamful and said it offended the dignity of women.
The court also questioned why the victim, identified only as Rosa, waited several hours to tell her parents she'd been attacked.
A 22-year-old KU student was arrested for operating a vehicle under the influence of alcohol at 2:40 a.m. yesterday in the 100 block of Indian Ave., a Lawrence Police report said. His bond was set at $500.
"Women are already scared of reporting rapes," she said. "This just makes it worse."
The name of a KU student was forged on two checks between 10:54 a.m. Jan. 18 and 10:54 a.m. Monday at HyVee, 3504 Clinton Parkway, a Lawrence Police report said. The amount on the checks was $93.

Votes to be cast by senators on impeachment
Continued from page 1A
with highly critical words about Clinton's behavior at a time the White House still hoped to avoid congressional action.
For all the expressions of disgust, a formal effort to censure the president appeared all but dead, a victim of Republican opposition. Democrats said they would make an effort to force a post-trial vote on the Senate floor, and failing passage, would draft a statement of condemnation.
A two-thirds vote is required to convict the president and remove him from office, and there was no chance of that happening. Instead, whatever suspense lingered at the end of the five-week trial was whether either article of impeachment would attain a bare majority — a threshold with no bearing on Clinton's fate.
Three Republicans — Arlen Spector of Pennsylvania, John Chafee of Rhode Island and James Jeffords of Vermont — announced on Wednesday that they would not vote for conviction on either article.
Sen. Slade Gorton of Washington has announced he will vote against the perjury charge, but in favor of the obstruction charge.
Two moderate Northeastern senators — Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins of Maine — have yet to disclose their decisions.
"I refuse to say that high political polls and soaring Wall Street indexes give license to those in high places who act in low and illegal ways," he said.
Among Democrats, Senate aides said the only question was whether Robert C. Byrd of West Virginia, a longtime party leader, would break ranks and join Republicans in voting to convict.
Controversy broke out over a report that Clinton had vowed revenge on House Republicans at the polls in 2000.
"It is deeply troubling that the president views closure of this constitutional process as an opportunity for revenge," said Majority Leader Trent Lott, R-Miss.
White House spokesman Joe Lockhart didn't deny presidential anger, but said, "I can't think of a worse, more dumb strategy than going after people based on whether they were a House manager or not."
Chief Justice William Rehnquist made the trip from the Supreme Court in his limousine yesterday, and a few moments later the Senate's doors were closed for deliberations.
"You look at the House managers, and the vast majority are in safe seats or unopposed seats," he said. The 2000 election is 21 months distant, and Clinton has promised a strenuous effort to help Democrats regain control of Congress.
Several senators issued written statements during the day.
"The House managers failed to establish that the president's conduct amounts to 'high crimes and misdemeanors,'" said Sen. Jack Reed of Rhode Island.

Fall break plan closer to reality
By Kristi Reimer
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
Despite concerns about finals-week scheduling conflicts, the University Council voted yesterday to add a mid-October break to the academic calendar as soon as Fall 2000.
The proposal still must be approved by Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Provost David Shulenburger and the Board of Regents.
The council passed a Calendar Committee proposal that, in addition to fall break, would add a two-week intersession after Jan. 1 and shorten finals week from six days to five.
The plan also balances semester length and, in some years, allows fall and spring semesters to begin and end on the same day of the week.
"The committee has done a remarkable job of meeting various requests, but some problems remain," said James Carothers, professor of English.
The most immediate complication faculty members discussed was that the shorter finals week would likely cause students to have three finals scheduled on the same day or more than one exam at the same time.
"Do we as faculty just say, 'Too bad?' asked Robert Adams, associate professor of mathematics.
Other council members expressed support for the plan despite the potential problems.
Bob Hohn, University Senate Executive Committee president and professor of psychology, said that the Calendar Committee and SenEx were pushing the proposal through quickly but that there was still time to figure out the details.
"If we're going to do something, we need to do it now." Hohn said.
Fall semester
The Board of Regents deadline for the next cycle of academic calendars is March 1, but the changes won't go into effect immediately.
CALENDAR PROPOSAL
Start: The Thursday between Aug. 18-24
- Start: The Thursday between Aug. 18-24
- Fall break: The Thursday and Friday between Oct. 13-14 and Oct. 20-21
- Start finals: The Monday between Dec. 12-19
- Finals: The Friday between Dec. 6-09
End finals: The Friday between Dec. 16-22
Spring semester
■ Start: In years when Martin Luther King day falls on Jan. 20 or 21, classes will start the Thursday before the holiday, Jan. 16 or 17. In all other years, classes will start on the Friday after the holiday, between Jan. 19-23.
■ Spring break: Monday through Friday in March
■ Start finals: The Monday between May 12-17
■ End finals: The Friday between May 16-22
■ Commencement: The Sunday between May 18-24
The Regents' next academic cycle is
2001 to 2004.
After University Council passed the proposal for the calendar that would begin in Fall 2001, members passed a separate motion to request that the changes be incorporated in Fall 2000.
"It is to our advantage to implement this as soon as possible," said Peter Gegenhainer, professor of biochemistry. "We will have enough time to deal with scheduling."
Carol Holstead, Calendar Committee member and associate professor of journalism, said she thought the chancellor and the provost supported the proposal. If they approve it, the Board of Regents will have final say on its approval.
Dragon to dance in lunar new year at KU
By Dan Curry
Kanson staff writer
The red dragon will romp and writhe at 8 p.m. tomorrow at the Kansas Union Ballroom as Asian student groups launch festivities celebrating the lunar calendar's new year.
The holiday, which is Tuesday, is the basis for the Chinese New Year celebration and the Vietnamese Lunar New Year celebration, or Tet.
Joe Tran, Vietnamese Student Association president and Overland Park senior, said that Tet was an important holiday in Vietnam — more important than New Year's Day in the United States.
"It's just a time to be with your family and friends," Tran said. "Over in Vietnam, since they really don't have a big Christian or Catholic background, there is no real Christmas. It's kind of like Christmas and New Year's combined."
The celebration and a 6 p.m. dinner tonight at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries are free for all students. Tran said.
The highlight of the Tet show will be the traditional dragon dance, said John Nguyen, Wichita senior, who danced inside the head of the dragon in the show last year.
"The whole point to the dance is scare away the bad luck," Nguyen said. "It can ward off evil. He's considered a really powerfully mythical creature."
During the dance, the dragon cavorts while the dragon tamer, a person wearing a mask and wielding a fan, strives to subdue it, Nguyen said.
Once the dragon tamer brings the dragon under control, the dance ends, and good luck is secured for the year.
Nguyen said working the dragon was exhilarating.
"You're moving to the beat of the drums, and you're going around the crowd," he said. "The best part is when they start throwing money at you."
Nguyen said that the money the dancers collected was part of the tradition of li xi, or lucky money.
Tran said that in Vietnam, children received lucky money from their parents as gifts for the new year.
While the Vietnamese will be celebrating the year of the Cat tomorrow, the Taiwanese Student Association will ring in the year of the Rabbit Festival tonight at the FOM.
Hsiung said that she had lived in the United States for six years and that every Chinese New Year she read in the Taiwanese newspapers about the swollen marketplaces. She said that it made her want to return home.
Hsiung said that the Chinese New Year was a chance for family to reunite.
"No matter where you are,you try to get together with family for the new year." she said.
"The circle means perfect, and you can see each other." she said.
The Taiwanese traditional new year's gifts for children were red envelopes full of money.

Student organizations want provost to revise bulletin board policy
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Student organizations and the administration are trying to reach an agreement in a dispute about campus bulletin boards.
Student organizations, including Student Union Activities, are frustrated with a University policy put into effect in September. The policy did not allowed the posting of information on classroom bulletin boards and other campus structures including walls, exterior doors, utility poles, bus stops and newspaper distribution boxes.
Groups that violate the policy receive warning letters and are subject to a $10 fine per poster.
Seth Hoffman, University Senate Executive Committee bulletin board subcommittee member and Lenexa junior, said the University policy was aimed at curbing the promotion of products such as alcohol and credit cards. But, he said, the policy had adverse effects on student organizations.
"Student organizations should be able to post in classrooms," Hoffman said. "They should be given priority and not be treated like outside advertisers."
Hoffman said that he spoke with Provost David Shulenburger last week about revising the policy and implementing other options to help communication between student organizations and students.
He said the subcommittee wanted to have a final proposal ready by next week.
Recommendations may include adding more indoor bulletin boards, installing outdoor kiosks around campus and renovating the KU Information Center booth located on Jayhawk Boulevard in front of Stauffer-
Flint Hall.
The subcommittee also may suggest improving the Web calendar and integrating it into the KU Facts Web site and the new Digital Jawhawk site.
SUA, which has received warnings about postings from the provost's office, also formed a bulletin board posting subcommittee to examine how the policy could be more student-friendly.
"They weren't very optimistic about it," said Jeff LaCroix, SUA vice president for University Relations and Olathe senior. "I'm hoping that SenEx can rustle a few more leaves then we've been able to."
The subcommittee sent a list of recommendations to the provost's office in December.
LaCroix said SUA wanted to find an alternative means of distributing information on campus. He said there was not much space available anywhere except in the Kansas Union.
"There are student organizations that provide programs that are directly complementary to what the University's mission is," LaCroix said. "So it's kind of silly that they won't let them post information."
SUA's recommendations included that the University allow student organizations to post one filer per event on all campus bulletin boards not designated to academic departments, including those in classrooms.
Jeannenette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said that the provost's office had sent warnings to about 40 student organizations but only had fined some private businesses that were repeat offenders.
She said that the University was open to suggestions from student organizations about implementing other options.

Same-sex pairs unjustly missing rights of heterosexual marriages
Today is National Freedom to Marry Day, a day set aside to recognize the U.S. government's lack of recognition for same-sex marriages.
Those opposed to same-sex marriages have made reference to every argument from the Bible to a need to revive "traditional family values," but the two main issues to be decided are what constitutes a family, and what constitutes a marriage?
The definition of a family never has been static in our society. In 1967, the Supreme Court decreed that banning interracial marriage was unconstitutional. Nuclear families with working fathers and stay-home mothers make up less than 7 percent of American households. Children have grown up healthy in a variety of families, and same-sex couples who have adopted or had children have raised healthy adults. There has been no empirical evidence to show that children growing up without a parent of both sexes are at risk.
Freedom to Marry Day is a reminder that gay marriages deserve rights of legal union.
Marriage fundamentally is a legal contract. The Legislature has defined marriage as a union between two persons of opposite sexes, and Congress passed the Defense of Marriage Act, allowing states to disregard same-sex marriages made in other states.
Calling a same-sex union a domestic partnership as opposed to marriage is wrong. This allows for the restriction of
rights inherent in heterosexual marriages, namely housing rights, spousal benefits and a right to raise one's adopted or natural children. The label also strips away the cultural and spiritual significance of the bond for the gay and lesbian couples involved.
It is not the government's role to legislate "morality" on an issue where morality is defined in accordance with specific religious traditions.
Private freedom and the pursuit of happiness are integral parts of our Constitution. Regulating a person's ability to love and establish a family are not areas of the law that should be regulated. We should all bear this in mind when casting votes in both state and national elections. It is time same-sex couples be allowed the same freedoms as their dual-sex counterparts.
Matthew Skinta for the editorial board
Children require male, female parents
The ideals behind Freedom of Marriage day distorts the institution of marriage. Marriage has been defined by society, religion and the U.S. government as a union between man and woman. These heterosexual marriages provides the most stable environment for raising children.
By calling a union between two homosexuals a marriage, they become entitled to all privileges heterosexual married couples enjoy, including the right to adopt.
There are about two million couples and individuals waiting to adopt children, said Bill Pierce of the National Council for Adoption. There are not enough infants available in the United States for prospective parents who want to adopt them. Most agencies will not
Marriage rights should not be extended to homosexuals.
even interview heterosexual couples who have been married less than three years because of their desire to place children in better, more secure homes.
There is evidence that children parented by homosexuals have trouble developing gender images. Further, these children themselves have problems learning how to be a husband or wife, or mother or father. Children learn these things by observing their parents. Homosexual households do not have role models for children to learn from. It is almost impossible for homosexual couples to provide their children
with a balanced view of society.
Thousands have protested the proposed Civil Solidarity Pact in France saying that the bill will ultimately allow gay couples to adopt. Germany and Spain have both refused to allow gay adoptions.
Two national polls done by Newsweek indicated that only 33 percent of the overall population supports gay marriages. In Hawaii, where legalizing same-sex marriages has been an issue, a Honolulu Star-Bulletin poll showed that 74 percent of those surveyed disapproved of homosexual marriages.
The ban on gay marriages in more than 30 states is not institutionalized homophobia or lawmakers trying to score moral points, but a suitable reflection of public opinion.

Romantic rituals offer chance to seize the day
Perspective
I don't like red, and I can't stand pink. Roses and carnations smell, well, strange to me. I don't like mushy, poetic cards. I always have found chubby little naked boys
hovering around with bows and arrows mildly disturbing. I think I lost my only sweet tooth some time back in grade school, Iced, heart-shaped sugar cookies lost their appeal around the same time. If I were to wrap it all up into one statement, I would have to say. I don't much like Valentine's Day.
Mike Perryman
opinion@kansan.com
I think that I used to enjoy the holiday. Although I cannot remember exactly when that would have been, I'd probably guess that it was
somewhere around early-to-mid grade school. It is not as if I have become bitter or anything since then. I actually enjoy all of the affection. It's just that that I don't like the pressures that go along with Valentine's Day.
It's almost always a no-win, mentally taxing situation. If you don't have a date, you feel like a fool. You feel like a fool because you're supposed to feel like a fool. If you do happen to have a date or a girlfriend or a boyfriend, you have to switch your mind from "I really don't care" to "Considerate" mode, spending money you don't have and money that you never will have on everything from flowers and chocolates to oils and weirdo lighting. Put simply, it's all become too complicated.
If we don't already have a date, we feel obligated to ask someone out. We cannot face the humiliation of being alone while everyone else is out smiling, laughing, courting, mating or doing some other fun and exciting thing — This is all in our heads, by the way. A good number of people who are out on Valentine's Day actually are quite miserable. If we do have a date, we feel that we have to secure reservations at some stuffy, overcrowded, formal restaurant and then flatter and flatter until we lose our appetites and feel sick to our stomachs.
it really is quite amusing when you think about it. People go so far out of their way to convey their feelings toward another person, and despite all of the gifts and shallow compliments, who knows if they ever even get their point across.
I say that it is time to quit fooling around with all of the stupidity and tell someone how you feel. Speak it! The worse that can happen is...well, we won't go there. But good things can happen, too — I think good things can happen. I don't remember ever having actually tested the theory.
When we were kids, it was easy. We didn't have to be romantic, witty or even creative. One of our friends simply would walk up and tell some random individual that we liked them — whether it was true — and that was that. All of the sudden, we had a girlfriend or a boyfriend, and life was good. We didn't ask questions. There was no emphasis on buying worthless stuff. We may have exchanged a couple of cheap, one-sided cardboard Valentine cards or a few stale heart candies inscribed with "Be Mine" or "Yours Truly." But for the most part, it was all about being able to say that you had a girlfriend or a boyfriend, even if you rarely talked with the person, which typically was the case.
Despite my ranting and raving, it is a good thing to remember that gifts are not a bad thing. Some really good friends told me once that giving gifts was one of five ways of showing another person that you care. The other four are the time you spend, the favors you do, the way you physically act and the words you speak. The last one is my favorite. Which one can you relate to?
Unfortunately, as we all know, dating is not this simple, and the pressures of Valentine's Day don't make it any easier.
Man, I wish dating still were that unsophisticated and naive. I would give just about anything to be able to turn to my roommate and say:
"Hey Dave, there's this girl in my Spanish class. She's cute, and, well, do you think you could either ask her out for me or at least get her number? That way you can call her and see if she likes me?"
Oh, by the way, if anyone knows where I can get a good deal on a dozen roses and a box of Russell Stover's assorted chocolates, could you please give me a holer?

Valentine's Day reminds singles about loneliness
H.G.
Miller
opinionkansan.com
Perhaps you haven't noticed the preponderance of pink and red hearts adorning the aisles of local merchants or the sultry advertisements coming through the radio waves, but Valentine's Day
Because this holiday has worked its way into mass marketing, and thus the Grand American Culture, I feel that it is my duty to make fun of it.
If you aren't familiar with the customs, the main point of Valentine's Day is to show love and passion for those who are closest to you by surprising them with gifts at a designated time or else risking a loss of that special relationship.
Otherwise, the holiday, with all of its pink and red (how tacky, really), simply exists to make single people even more painfully aware of the complete lack of intimacy in their lives. I dedicate this column to all of the single people out who must deal with this month-long onslaught of romantic insinuations, lovey-dovey salutations and all the other nauseating reminders of how happy other people are.
Before the tirade of angry letters begins, let me tell you that I'm just being honest. I am well aware that there is more to life than bedding down with the nearest warm body, but single people don't exist in a vacuum. We have friends. We have boyfriends and girlfriends, we people go see movies with and have dinner with, and people who call us in the wee hours of the morning to discuss the problems of the world and hear a friendly voice.
If I could express my feelings about this brutal holiday with one single statement, I would like to title this column "You Will Not be Getting Avv Tonight."
We just don't get to sleep with these people. I don't know why, but those are just the rules.
I'm willing to bet that every one of us knows at least one person our age who has gotten married by now. Personally, I have three garter belts on the wall at home. I'm not trying to show off that I've got the hops, I'm just trying to illustrate that when all of your friends keep getting married, you begin to wonder what it is that you're doing wrong.
And so, we'll call up our other single friends and complain about our married friends and drink copious amounts of alcohol and hope that we don't do something stupid with the people that we're "just friends" with because there are usually good reasons why we're all just good friends anyway. And I'll just write some run-on sentences, maybe some bad poetry, and then I'll go to bed and wonder what the name of that waitress was and whether I tipped her enough.
Then there's this whole holiday thing. It's not bad enough that single people must go to bed every night pondering the absolute stupidity of a statement such as, "As soon as you're not looking, it will happen," but we also have to put up with the commercial industries ramming images of happy couples — with their boxes of chocolates, their knowing smiles and their frolicsome ways — down our throats with about as much subtlety as a chalk birthday announcement in front of Wescoe Hall.
Miller is a Hutchinson senior in English.
Let's face it, it's hard work being single. We're constantly checking for rings anytime we meet somebody new and always looking for the most subtle way of finding out about a boyfriend before wasting good material. It's impossible to attend a party and not stare longingly at the slightly-trapped couples who fondle each other in the darkened corners, all the while waiting for the fight that always seems to follow.
Feedback
Student courtesy important for bars
I always feel bad when I go out with my married couple friends because it's them on one side of the booth and me on the other, and I'm obligated to hit on the waitress because I'm so obviously alone. And, of course, she realizes this and probably doesn't like working that hard just for a tip.
As everyone already has heard, there was a big controversy about students leaving bars — The Wagon Wheel, the Hawk, Bull Winkles — and causing too many problems. These bars that offer a place for us to go and to have a good time now are held responsible for hiring security to patrol outside. To have this done surely will not be cheap. If you

a are student leaving the bar,
do not ruin it for everyone
else. Bequiet, and do not litter.
These two things are the biggest reasons why the bars almost had to close at midnight. The biggest problem for the bars was that most of their business comes after midnight. Also, keep in mind that these bars employ many of our fellow students, who need the money. The students would be losing out on a lot of the tip money that makes up a big portion of their earnings.
Now that we have been given a second chance, let's show them that we can be courteous to those who are sleeping at 2 a.m. and that these same people will not have to wake up to a lawn full of trash.
Students before us could handle it, so let's make sure that the students after us can enjoy these bars, too. Remember, it only takes a few to ruin it for everyone.

Search for juice yields new Jeep
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
Jeeps are nothing new around college campuses.
But when they're free—it's a different story.
Jeep
In last semester's Coca-Cola sweepstakes, Annie Gronbeck-Tedesco, Lawrence junior, won a 1999 Jeep Wrangler.
And if it weren't for a few malfunctioning vending machines, the Jeep might not have been hers.
Annie Gronbeck-Tedesco, Lawrence junior, won the grand prize, a 1999 Jeep Wrangler, in last semester's Coca-Cola sweepsstakes on campus. Gronbeck-Tedesco said the Jeep was much better than her previous car.

On a day in early December, Gronbeck Tedesco was late for Italian class and on a quest for for applejuice.
She put her dollar into the first machine, but neither a Coke nor her money was distributed.
But on the first floor of Wescoe Hall she only found Coke.
"A lady administrator walked by and recommended that I fill out a form to get my money back," Gronbeck Tedesco said. "But while I was filling it out, the machine sent my dollar out."
She kicked the machine.
Gronbeck-Tedesco put her dollar in the next machine, punched buttons for random beverages and it replied by giving her 10 dimes.
At last she received her Coke and hurried to the elevator.
The third machine also was of no use and the administrator suggested that she try the fourth
Gronbeck-Tedesco, who rarely drinks soft drinks—she prefers fruit juice — thought about an ad she had seen around campus that promoted the Coke sweepstakes. She looked under the cap.
"It said '1999 Jeep' in the cap, but I just thought that was the name of the contest," she said. "I didn't know that I had won it."
Gronbeck-Tedesco showed the cap to a friend in her Italian class.
"He looked at me and then he looked at the cap and then he said 'You won,'" she said. "At first I felt kind of sick — I mean this was the second time I had ever bought a Coke. I sat through Italian class and didn't hear a word the teacher said."
After calling the Coke company to find out how to redeem her prize, Gronbeck-Tedesco began telling everyone that she knew.
Gronbeck-Tedesco then sent the cap by certified mail to the company.
"I didn't hear anything for a month," she said.
"I was a little frantic. It crossed my mind that
they were going to find a way out of it."
She eventually received word from Coke at the end of December and went to pick up her Jeep on Jan. 4.
But at that time, she wasn't considering keeping it.
"My first intention was to sell the Jeep so I could afford to study abroad," she said. "But compulsion took over my logic and I knew I'd have to have it."
Gronbeck-Tedesco said that before the Jeep she hadn't had the most luxurious set of wheels.
Her first car was a 1986 Mazda 323 nicknamed "The Goat."
"It was a little brown rattling thing that had actually just got hit and would smoke from the inside," she said. "It was awful."
Gronbeck-Tedesco said the Jeep was a vast improvement.
"A new car wasn't anywhere in my near future," she said. "It was amazing, a nice little treat."
Gronbeck-Tedesco's father. John, said that the
Jeep hadn't really changed his daughter in any way, but that her winning the Jeep was incredibly lucky.
"I didn't believe it," he said. "It is an extraordinary navy piece of fortune."
Although both of Gronbeck-Tedesco's parents are employed by the University—John is a professor of theater and film and Susan is assistant to the provost—her father said that there hadn't been any controversy.
"There are strict rules, but they say that faculty kids can win." he said.
Coke representative Lori Crowl said that in last fall's sweepstakes, about 75 Vanguard airline tickets were awarded, 400-500 Papa John's pizzas, about $15,000 in Target bucks, about $40,000 in KU bookstore coupons, and between 5000 and 6000 bottles of Coke.
Crowl said there also will be a spring semester Coke sweepstakes. That prize list will include four Sea Doo jet skis, 200 Trek mountain bikes, Delta round-trip airline tickets, $10 credits on KU smart cards and bottles of Coke, she said.
State may improve U.S. Highway 59
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
U. S. Highway 59, which runs between Lawrence and Ottawa, may be extended to four lanes if the Legislature passes a comprehensive transportation improvement plan which was unveiled by Gov. Bill Graves on Jan.6.
"U.S. 59 has been identified through our priority system as one that needs improvement," said Marty Matthews, public information officer for the Kansas Department of Transportation. "We support the governor's plan. Like with anything, it will come down to whether the money is available."
944 Mass.
832-8228
Matthews said that the transportation department had proposed two initial ways to widen the highway, both of which were rejected.
One plan widened the highway following the same route it does now. The other plan changed the highway's route so that the road went further east and connected with U.S. Highway 35.
"Some people weren't happy with it turning east because of the farmland out that way," Matthews said. "Some people weren't happy with widening the existing route because of the houses and businesses it would affect. We're going back to the drawing board to see where that highway should go."
59 Highway 59 may be extended to four lanes
Mike Matson, press secretary for Graves, said that U.S. 59 was identified by both Lawrence and Ottawa officials as one that needed to be made into a four-lane highway.
The governor's plan calls for $10.7 billion in transportation improvements during an eight-year period. The plan would be financed by transferring 10 percent of sales tax receipts to the state transportation fund and by enacting an additional $1.8 billion in bonding authority.
In addition to the proposed highway improvements, the plan proposes improvements to railroads, rural airports and public-transit systems.
This compares to the eight-year, $6.98 billion comprehensive highway program enacted by the Legislature in 1999.
The governor's plan has sparked a number of transportation plans proposed by members of the Legislature since it began its 90-day session on
Sorority to honor outstanding women for community work
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
Three female African-American students will be honored tonight as part of a combined Black History Month event and 20th-anniversary celebration for Zeta Phi Beta, a traditionally Black sorority.
Yasmeen Coleman, Kansas City, Kan., senior; Tanisha Jones, Wichita sophomore, and Natalie Lucas, Kansas City, Kan., sophomore, will be commended for their involvement with the KU African-American community, said Eric VanRoss. Zeta Phi Beta president.
VanRoss said that the sorority wanted to honor outstanding African-American women on campus
"As a Black woman, I don't feel like we are recognized enough,"
Coleman will be recognized for starting a chapter of the National Council of Negro Women at the University of Kansas, VanRoss said.
"She gave a marvelous speech about black women. I went out and joined," Coleman said. "I've been a member over a year."
Coleman said she was inspired by watching NCNW president Dorothy Height speak at the Million Man March.
Coleman said that she saw a need on the KU campus for an organization open to all African-American women.
VanRoss said. "This is the first year we're going to do this."
VanRoss said that the sorority would be honoring Jones for participating in many activities, including being the first person to serve on the recently created Black Student Union seat in the Student Senate.
"We are open to everybody, whoever understands the plight and struggles of African Americans. We are not exclusive," Coleman said.
"I'm very honored. I'm surprised." Jones said.
Lucas said she also was taken by surprise by the award.
"I didn't even know it was for students. I thought it was for older people," Lucas said. "I appreciate it."
Besides being involved in the BSU and NCNW, Lucas also was a mentor for the Education 2000 program, a program that sends college students into inner-city grade schools, Lucas said.

Undergraduates to present research during symposium
By Chris Hopkins Kansan staff writer
Topics ranging from the effect of light on architecture to the smallest particles in the universe will be discussed at the Second Annual KU Undergraduate Research Symposium tomorrow in the Kansas Union.
Original musical works and sculptures also will be presented during the day-long event, which starts at 8:55 a.m. A symposium is a gathering or social event where there is a free exchange of ideas.
Barbara Schowen, director of the University honors program, was one of the developers of the symposium.
"It was really exciting last year and I think everyone who attended had a really good time," she said.
The symposium began last year as a forum for undergraduate research. Schowen said that about 50 people presented their findings last year and that more than 60 would this year.
Cress Wakefield, Wichita senior is creating a display on the interaction of light and space in architecture. She said that the symposium allowed students to display work that normally would be overlooked.
"A lot of times, undergraduate research isn't recognized in publications and such," she said.
Many of the participants in tomorrow's program also were winners of undergraduate research awards, which help finance students' travel and other expenses while doing research.
Wakefield did her research while she was on a study abroad program in Italy with the School of Architecture. She chose a suburb of Venice to conduct her study.
By measuring the amount of light in different places in the courtyard hourly for four days, Wakefield said she understood better the way light interacted with the architecture.
"You're really, really aware of
the space because you have to walk everywhere," she said. "It seems more open or closed depending on where the light is, and it leads you in different directions depending on where the light is."
Another illuminating portion of the program will be a pair of discussions about neutrinos.
Neutrinos were discovered in 1959 when a stream of the particles were shot through water and gave off small bursts of light. They are believed to be both the smallest and the most plentiful particle in the universe.
David Besson, assistant professor of physics and astronomy, said that the symposium would be a warm-up for his research assistants.
"Two of them are actually giving talks the following week, and so this is a chance for me to tune them up," he said.
Kelly Peterson, Vermillion, S.D., sophomore, and Ryan Dyer, a Haskell Indian Nations University student, will be making presentations about neutrinos at the University of California-Berkley.
Peter Brabant, Lawrence junior was helping Besson with supercollar research. He will make a presentation at Cornell in a month.
The day's events will be capped off by a dinner banquet at 6 p.m.
Richard Schowen, professor of microbiology, will give a speech called "How to Breed Scientists in Captivity."
Richard Schowen said that the speech focused on maintaining intellectual freedom in the controlled world of the professional world.
"Modern science is so expensive and requires so many resources that it can really only be done in an institutional setting." he said.
Richard Schowen said that the symposium should keep getting bigger, in part because of the support by Provost David Shulenburger. During the Faculty Convocation this fall, Shulenburger said he would like every undergraduate to get research experience.
Museum's rare snake undergoes surgery
By Matt Merkel-Hess Special to the Kansan
An unusual animal that beat the odds before arriving at the Natural History Museum has survived yet another challenge.
An albino rat snake at the museum is recovering from surgery that removed a potentially malignant tumor from its jaw.
Before arriving at the museum in the mid-1980s, the snake lived in the wild, where its glistening white skin made it obvious to attackers.
Nancy Schwarting, an animal science technician with the KU Animal Care Unit, said that a Leavenworth County farmer discovered the 41/2 foot snake as a full-grown adult in his chicken coop, engorged on eggs.
Eric Rundquist, animal science technician at the museum, said it was unusual to find an albino animal in the wild.
"He said it was scary and too weird," Schwarting said. "We were lucky he wanted us to come and take it rather than killing it."
After living in the relative safety of the museum for about
"We did a real quick biopsy," he said. "It didn't look quite right so we took the snake to the vet."
15 years, the snake developed a rapidly-growing tumor about a month ago. Rundquist said.
marguerite Ermeling, a veterinarian specializing in exotic animals performed surgery to remove the tumor Jan. 13 at the Gentle Care Animal Hospital in Lawrence. She said that cancer, an infection or an abscess could have caused the tumor.

Ermeling said that some tumor mass remained after surgery because removing it all would have destroyed jaw muscles. She said the remaining tumor could spread.
Although the snake is recovering quickly, tissue samples were sent to the University of Missouri to determine if the tumor is malignant, said Nancy Schwarting.
Schwarting said that Missouri scientists had differing opinions about the snake's tumor and that the Animal Care Unit had not received test results.
"This is a granddaddy snake."
Schwarting said. "Odds are good that it has cancer, because that is common in old snakes."
tion between albinism and cancer was not found in animals, but that humans with albinism had higher rates of cancer, because of increased susceptibility to skin cancer.
Rundquist said that a correla-
One fan of the snake is Kate Dillon, a housekeeping employee at the museum.
"It fascinates me because it is albino," Dillon said. "I'm albino — it's like a connection. I don't like snakes at all, but I come every day and look at them to try and get over that."
Dillon said she was concerned with the snake's absence.
"Every time I see (Rundquist) I ask him how the snake is doing." Dillon said.
Rat snakes grow up to six-feet long and live about 20 years. Schwarting estimated the snake's age at about 20, and said test results and the snake's health determined whether to put it back on display.
"It's a very popular animal, and it's been here a long time," Rundquit said.

appeal to all ages.
The production combines many parts of Cleary's Ramona books into one year of Ramona's third grade life. The play shows how difficult it is for her to grow up when no one understands her.
Students, as well as children will find humor in a new University Theatre production based on a famous children's series.
"Ramona Quimby," a play by Len Jenkin adapted from the Beverly Cleary books, will open at 7 p.m. tomorrow at the Crafton-Preyer Theatre in Mur-
The play spans many situations an impressionable third grader would endure: dealing with siblings, friends and family. Through these situations, Ramona has good times and bad times and learns life lessons accented by humor.
"It's a kids' show," said Megan Schemmel, who plays both Susan, the classroom brat and Tammy, a peppy waitress.
Despite the show's appeal to children, she said that it would
Lauren Stanford, who plays Ramona's older sister Beezus, said that children would react in different ways to the play. She said they would be attracted to the lavish costumes and silly physical humor. However, the adult audience would relate to the dialogue and underlying comedy.
Stanford, Stilwell senior, is no stranger to the Cleary books, which helped her develop the character she plays.
"When I was younger, my best friend and I had a competition to see who could read all the Ramona books first," she said.
Cleary, who was among the slowest readers in her first grade class, understood the
struggle of a young child trying to read.
Her mother, who built the first library in her hometown of Yamhill, Ore., influenced Cleary to appreciate books. But later in life, Cleary found children's stories to be too predictable and she was inspired to write about the funny situations that people could relate to.
Schemmel and Stanford said that they also thought the play would be a success with both audiences.
"We are expecting a full house for the student show," Schemmel said.
Tickets are $6 for the general public and $3 for students and are available at Murphy Hall box office.

Commentary
Wednesday jinx: Jayhawks lose to Cornhuskers twice in a row
A lot of bad things happened Wednesday night.
The Kansas men's basketball team lost another home game, the third one this year. Kansas not only lost, but it blew another big lead (an 11-point lead in the last eight minutes).
The Jayhawks were beaten for the second time this year by Nebraska! Yes, by its basketball team, and although Nebraska fans probably don't care (they only cheer for their football team and then jump on the bandwagon of anyone who is good in other sports), it hurts the loyal Kansas fans to be swept by anyone in this conference — especially Nebraska.
20
The 'Hawks missed eight free throws in the final seven minutes of the game. A free throw should be the easiest shot in all of basketball. You are standing there all alone 15 feet from the basket without anyone in your face to distract you. You have 10 seconds of almost absolute silence — at least in Allen Fieldhouse — to concentrate and take a good shot.
You have practiced this shot millions of times before—or at least you should have if you are playing for Kansas. Free throws win and lose games, and missing eight in the final seven minutes of a crucial game is unacceptable for a Top 25 team.

Kansas made numerous turnovers — 20 on the night — and went into long scoring droughts that made for
an ugly game. That allowed Nebraska a chance to climb back into it.
The 'Hawks failed to capitalize on Texas' loss and blew a chance to climb into a tie with them for first place in the Big 12 Conference. A Kansas win would have put our Big 12 record equal with Texas', but we would be in first place by virtue of our victory over the Longhorns back in January. Now, we are in a four-team log jam for second place and our chances of winning a third Big 12 Championship are looking slimmer then ever.
Finally, the worst thing that happened Wednesday night was that I was unable to go to the game and was forced to watch it on ESPN Plus on my television. ESPN Plus, formerly known as Creative Sports, and before that Raycom Sports, is an absolute joke. That outfit could not be any less professional or provide a poorer quality broadcast if they tried. Am I bitter? Yes! I am tired of trying to watch games done by these jokers. What's the matter with them you ask? What's not?
Dave Armstrong is one of the worst announcers in the world. His annoying voice and constant screw-ups are unbearable. John Sunveld isn't bad, but he played for Missouri, and so I naturally don't like him and don't want him doing Kansas games. Kansas alumnus Chris Piper does some announcing and does a good job, but he isn't used enough.
The camera crew must be chosen randomly from the public, or maybe they are the winners of a contest or something, because they can't focus their cameras or zoom in closer to the action. You barely can read the signs on the scorer's tables.
They also don't like to show the action half of the time. On one of Bosche's three-point attempts, the camera left the ball as it was in mid-air and the next thing you saw was Chenowith rebounding. You had to assume it was a missed shot. They also are notorious for showing not-so-instant replays while action is going on, leaving you guessing what just happened.
Jones is a Lyndon second-year law student.
The sound and picture quality is terrible, too. I have to turn my television almost all of the way up to hear the game, and then I am blasted by sound when they go to commercials. The picture constantly went scribbly and was full of static during the game. At the end of the game, they put a message on the screen that they were having satellite troubles. This outfit has been doing Kansas and other Big 12 and Big Eight games for years. It should have its act together by now. It's time to try someone new. The School of Journalism's broadcast students or Sunflower Channel 6 could do a better job than these guys.
'Hawks to face Tech; dominance on the line
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
In a season full of broken streaks, the Kansas men's basketball team hopes to keep one intact this weekend when it battles Texas Tech tomorrow in Lubbock.
The Jayhawks, 16-7 overall and 8-3 in the Big 12 Conference, are 9-0 all-time against the Red Raiders, including last season's 88-49 drubbing in Lawrence They will be looking to continue that undefeated streak tomorrow.
Kansas will have to rebound from a disappointing 64-59 loss to Nebraska on Wednesday night that ended its three-game winning streak and dropped the Jayhawks into a four-way tie for second place in the Big 12 with Nebraska, Missouri and Oklahoma.
"It has been an up and down year, and this is definitely one of the down times," Kansas center Eric Chenowith said of the Jayhawks, who hadn't lost seven games this early since the 1988-89 season. Roy Williams' first as head coach.
Kansas had an opportunity to climb into a first-place tie with Texas after the Longhorns lost to Oklahoma on Wednesday night. Instead, the Jayhawks tightened up the conference standings by losing to Nebraska.
"We've been fighting to get back in the race and all of a sudden, Texas loses serve, and we do too on the same night," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "We're in the exact same position as we were before the night started, except we let Nebraska and Missouri back into the race. It's still tight, and there's still a lot of basketball to be played."
And right now the most important game for the Jayhawks is Saturday's tussle with the Red Raiders, 11-13 overall and 3-8 in the Big 12.
After starting the Big 12 season at 2-2, Texas Tech dropped six games in a row before tasting victory again on Wednesday with a 75-66 win against Baylor.
The Red Raiders are led by their experienced backcourt tandem of junior Rayford Young and senior Stan Bonewitz. The ultra-quick Young leads the team in scoring with 14.9 points per game, and the multi-
talented Bonewitz adds 11.8 points, 4.3 rebounds and 4.2 assists per game.
Junior forward Cliff Owens contributes 11.3 points and a team-leading 7.2 rebounds per game for Texas Tech.
To continue its dominance of the Red Raiders, Kansas must beat them in Lubbock Municipal Coliseum.
where Texas Tech is 8-5.
"Our best performances have been at other places," Williams said. "It's such a good group of kids that maybe they feel more pressure at home."

Baseball team ready to open its season at Texas-Arlington
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas boys of summer are looking forward to starting their season in the sunshine.
The baseball team will play a three-game series this weekend at the University of Texas-Arlington, where weekend forecasts have predicted highs in the 70s. But having held two scrimmages outdoors in the variable conditions of Kansas, the team is prepared to deal with whatever the weather may be.
"We've had one nice day and one cold day, so I'll be ready for whatever the temperature may be at UTA," junior pitcher Rusty Philbrick said.
Philbrick, who is slated to start the season opener, had the team's leading earned run average last year. He said he was comfortable with this year's pitching staff.
"I feel confident with every person who goes out there to pitch." Philbrick said. "We've had two scrimmages outside, and everybody was hitting 65 miles per hour or above. That's the first time that has happened since I've been here."
Coach Bobby Randall also said he was impressed with his team's pitching.
"Ilike the pitching better than I've ever liked it before," Randall said. "We've never had the commodity in the past to have pitchers injured or pitch below expectations."
Randall said that most of the players on this year's roster threw hard and that pitching and catching would be the key to defeating the Mavericks.
Randall said, "They don't run a lot, but if they see that (catching) as a weakness they'll probably take advantage of it."
"We've got to be able to stop the running game,"
Injuries are also a concern for Randall.
Projected starting center-fielder Brett Kappelmann and projected starting left fielder Harrison Hill are nursing leg pulls. Also, Randall said, third baseman Sparky Wilhelm has a sore back.
The injuries have forced Randall to jostle the lineup a little bit, but he said he was confident with the team that would take the field.
"We've got potentially one of the best infields I've ever coached," Randall said. "They all play good defense, and offense too, and they run well."
The infield is anchored by experience, but the outfielders are young. Freshmen Jason Appuhn, centerfielder, and Matt Van Alsburg, leftfielder, will join sophomore rightfielder Doug Dreher.
Junior Shane Wedd will catch for the Jayhawks, and seniors Chad King and Wilhelm will handle the corners — first base and third base, respectively. Sophomores Brandon O'Neal and John Nelson will return this year at second base and shortstop.
For Nelson, the series against Texas-Arlington is a homecoming of sorts. He grew up in Denton, Texas, about 45 minutes from Arlington.
He said he was looking forward to the trip.
"I'm excited to see my friends and family and hopefully show them a good ballgame," he said.
Tomorrow's double-header and Sunday's series finale both begin at 1 p.m.
Jackson provides leadership for rising 'Hawks
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
Jennifer Jackson is the outside threat on a team that does its best work in the paint.
The 5-foot-10 guard may look small compared to the rest of the Kansas starting lineup — the other four starters' average height is 6-2 — but when it comes to team importance, she looms quite large.
The sophomore point guard never has been more crucial for the Jayhawks as they attempt to win their sixth-straight game tomorrow against Nebraska.
Kansas (18-6, 8-3) welcomes a quick and talented Cornhusker team to Allen Fieldhouse for a 2:05 p.m. game.
Coach Marian Washington switched to a taller lineup, and Jackson has been the starting point guard ever since. The fit has been close to perfect.
That game, in which the Jayhawks committed a season-high 34 turnovers, marked a turning point in the season for the team and for Jackson.
The team has a score to settle with Nebraska (16-8, 5-6), who crushed the Jayhawks 62-82 Jan. 16 in Lincoln, Neb.
The Jayhawks are 5-1 with Jackson at the point, are committing only 17 turnovers a game and have vaulted themselves back into league title contention, a possibility that seemed doubtful three weeks ago.

But when the Jayhawks needed her ball-handling skills six games ago, Jackson accepted the challenge.
"It put me in a role where I don't look to score as much as I have been, but as long as we're winning, I'm happy." Jackson said. "I've been a point guard since I started playing basketball. It's nothing new to me."
Jackson hasn't disappeared from the offense by any means. She still knocks down her deadly overhead jump shot when defenses sag in on the Kansas frontline — a shot she mastered while pretending to be Larry Bird as a youngster.
Washington said she has always been confident in Jackson's ability to run the point.
What the Jayhawks will need from Jackson tomorrow is solid ball-handling against a swarming Cornhusker press.
"Jennifer has been asked to do a lot for this team, and she's done a great job," she said.
"Anytime a team presses, the point guard is going to have added pressure," she said. "We've been working all week on a game plan. We have to go out and make sure we break their pressure and make them pay when they put two people on the ball."
"The thing I respect most about Coach Washington is the fact that she acts the
Jackson said Washington, who could win game number 499 tomorrow with a victory against Nebraska, was a major factor in her decision to come to Kansas.
Making teams pay is exactly what the hustling floor-leader has been doing. Her 1.29 assist-to-turnover ratio ranks 10th in the B12 Conference.

same way now as when she came in my living room to recruit me," she said. "She's a very genuine person, and that's one of the best qualities you can have."
The No. 21-ranked Jayhawks are just one game back of league-leading Texas Tech going into tomorrow's game. Kansas is in a second-place tie with Iowa State after the Cyclones lost at Kansas State Wednesday night.
"This team is very focused right now," Jackson said. "Everyone understands their role and what they need to do, and I think we're going to go as far as we ever have."

'Father figure' selected to help coach Chiefs
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas City coach Gunther Cunningham, looking for a "father figure" to guide the development of struggling Chiefs quarterback Elvis
Grbac, has picked Tom Rossley for the job
Cunningham, named last month to succeed Marty Schottenheimer, filled out his coaching staff yesterday with the appointment of Rossley, a former college head coach who spent the past two seasons with the Chicago Bears.
NFL
CHIEFS
As quarterbacks coach, his job will be to try to mold Grbac into the player the Chiefs have expected him to be since signing him two seasons ago to a multimillion-dollar contract. That contract has three years still to run.
Grbac, sidelined by injury for parts of both seasons, has been ineffective and was benched much of last year in favor of the veteran Rich Gannon.
But after a season in which a team many thought had Super Bowl potential ended up 7-9, Schottenheimer reaffirmed his commitment for Grbac to be the starter again in 1999. And after Schottenheimer quit and Cunningham replaced him, the new coach also said Grbac was his man.
Mike McCarthy, a tight end when he played in college, had been Kansas City's quarterbacks coach, and Cunningham said he wanted somebody with actual experience playing the position.
He ended up, though, with a former wide receiver who set school records at the University of Cincinnati where he ranked second in the nation with 80 receptions in 1968.
But Rossley, 52, has had broad experience working with quarterbacks both as a college and pro coach. And beyond that, Cunningham saw him in a maturity in handling people that made him an ideal choice to work with Grac.
"We need someone who's mature, who's been through the duress and the tough situations and has handled it," Cunningham said. "That's what this quarterback needs. He needs a father figure to stand side by side, a guy he has confidence in and can rely on."
Perhaps Rossley's toughest situation was taking over as head coach at Southern Methodist University after the school was hit with the NCAA "death penalty" that forced it to give up football for a year because of repeated rules violations
A
the Mustangs went 1-10 in 1991, their first of six seasons under Rossley, but rebounded to 5-6 the following year. During Rossley's tenure, SMU developed four quarterbacks who passed for 300 yards in a game, and one of them became the school's all-time total offense leader.

Kansas softball hopes Workman can deliver
'By Brandon Stinnett
Kansan sportswriter
Sarah Workman was supposed to be the heart and soul of the Kansas softball team last season. But a longitudinal tear of a biceps tendon in her right throwing arm forced Workman, a junior pitcher, to miss the entire season.
Workman's injury had a lasting mental effect on the team.
"Emotionally,
it was a big let-down."
Coach Tracy Bunge said. "Once we knew Sarah was out for the season, there was almost this feeling of, 'Oh my gosh, what are we going to do now?'"
The Jayhawks never recovered finishing
A.
28-34 overall and sixth in the Big 12 Conference.
This season, however, with the return of Workman, Kansas hopes to finish in the top three in every tournament and in the top three in the Big 12.
"The players have very strong goals, very lofty goals," Bunge said,
"But I think they are realistic."
The Jayhawks kick off the season today in Minneapolis at the Metrodome Classic. Kansas will be competing against Northern Illinois,
Missouri, Western Illinois and Minnesota. Last season in the Metrodome Classic, the Jayhawks went 4-0 in round robin play, but lost to Missouri 5-0 in the championship game.
"We're out for a little revenge this year," Bunge said.
Since last season, Workman has recovered physically from the injury, but she still is working to regain the consistency she once had.
"I've had my ups and downs," she said. "The toughest part about the injury has been coming back."
This was supposed to be Workman's final season with the Jayhawks, but because the injury forced her to miss all of 1998, the NCAA has granted Workman an additional year of eligibility.
"In that way, Sarah's injury will benefit this team," Bunge said. "We get to have her back another year."
Despite Workman's return, Burge's primary concern is offense. The Jayhawks will rely on freshman slugger Leah Tabb to provide some added power. Tabb broke the national single season home run record at Putnam City High School last year with 22.
"I don't know where," Bunge said, "but Leah will be in the lineup some where, maybe as the DP (designated player)."
The Jayhawks still have to deal with the loss of six starters from 1998, including Michele Hubler who led the team in batting average (.315) and hits (56).
"Hitting is a question mark," Bunge said. "I don't know how many runs we'll go out and score each game."
Fieldhouse candy lady packing up her goodies
By Michael T. Rigg
Kansan sportswriter
This season, the only thing constant is change.
In a year of broken streaks, disappointing losses and fan apathy in Kansas men's basketball, a constant for the last 11 years has decided to end her run, too.
Lawrence resident Klissa Rueschhoff, famous to Jayhawk fans for throwing candy before home basketball games, is moving to Arizona in the off-season.
Rueschhoff cites the better weather and proximity to her parents as her main reasons for the move.
Rueschhoff has been throwing candy up into the stands since 1988, when a group of KU students inspired her to begin the tradition.
"I was watching a game, and a group of students came up to me and told me that they watched me during the games and told me that they were my fan club," Rueschhoff said. "I figured since I have a fan club, I better give them something because not everyone has a fan club."
The next game Rueschchoff came armed with a bag of candy to throw up to the students prior to the game.
"I started with a couple of bags [of candy], but then it just got popular and grew," said Rueschchoff, who attends home games with armloads full of candy for the students.
Many students share the same adoration of Rueschhoff as she does of them.
"I think what she does is great," said Shannon O'Neill, St. Louis freshman. "It won't be the same without her."
Other students like Rueschhoff's enthusiasm.
"I think that she brings a lot of spirit to the crowd before the game," said Patrick Waters, Leavenworth sophomore.
Rueschoff, who attends all home games with her husband, Jim, admitted she got a little nutty during the games.
Many times, she can be seen yelling at the officials or dancing to the hand during games.
She said it was the atmosphere of Allen Fieldhouse that made Kansas basketball so special.
"By far it's the best college basketball atmosphere in the country," Rueschoff said. "I'm going to miss it."
Rueschoff was introduced to Jayhawk basketball 19 years ago when she took a job as a secretary on the KU campus. She now works at Haskell Indian Nations University.
Rueschhoff promises she'll remain true to Kansas basketball.
"I don't plan on becoming a University of Arizona fan or anything like that," Rueschloff said. "The students here are too great."

Men's tennis prepares for Ohio State match
By Melinda Weaver
Kansan sportswriter
After winning its first home match of the season Wednesday, the Kansas men's tennis team heads to Columbus, Ohio, tonight to face Ohio State.
The Jayhawks will play their second match in three days.
Kansas coach Mark Riley said he expected the team to be prepared, even though they had little practice time before the trip.
"We need to be more consistent all the way around." Riley said. "We need to be sharper, but we'll be ready to play. We've got to get better and be more consistent."
While the 15th-ranked doubles team of Ed Dus and Luis Uribe suffered an 8-4 loss, the rest of the team increased their play to produce a win.
The Jayhawks slammed to a decisive 6-1 victory Wednesday night against Wichita State, the first Region V team they've faced.
"We were very flat starting out." Riley said. "Our doubles were flat. Number three did a good job, and number two played well, but the number one team played like they could get the job done without doing much. That won't happen again."
Each Jayhawk, based on his playing ability, is given a ranking and competes against an equally-ranked player of the opposition.
After Dus and Uribe lost and Quentin Blakeeny and Rodrigo Echagaray won, the doubles point rested on the play of Kenny Powell and Alex Barragan in No. 2 doubles. The duo clinched the point with a 8-6 win.
The three doubles matches are worth one point in collegiate tennis.
Both Dus and Uribe rebounded from the doubles loss by putting together sound singles victories. In No.1 singles, Uribe defeated Dan Sewell 6-1, 6-3, and in No.3 singles.
Men's Tennis
Dus defeated Mark Sewell 6-3, 6-1
"I felt pretty good about my match," Uribe said. "I played a solid match and a complete one. I plowed the way I needed to play."
Echagaray, a freshman who joined the team in January, produced his first victory by beating Mike Hooper 6-3, 6-0 in No. 6 singles.
"The freshman have matured," Uribe said. "They know what they need to do to win in collegiate tennis. It's very different from what they're used to. Experience always helps."

The only singles loss came from Powell who lost in two sets to Mark Mullins in No. 2 singles. The defeat was Powell's first of the season.
"I'm disappointed in Kenny's loss, but we can't ask him to be perfect," Riley said. "His team did well under pressure and won the doubles point for us. Kenny Powell played like a senior leader should."
Women's tennis team to battle BYU in Utah
The Kansas women's tennis team will open its Regional action this afternoon as it travels to Provo, Utah, to face Brigham Young University.
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
"This is our biggest week so far," said Kansas had coach Jenny Garrity. "This is a big match regionally."
Nationally, Kansas is ranked No. 17 while BYU is No. 18. Regionally, BYU is second to top-ranked Kansas.
"We really want to beat them because we haven't in a while," said Kris Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior.
Sell, 32-10 last year, will face BYU's No. 1 singles player Eline Chiew, who was 34-5 last year.
BYU was atop the Regional standings last year and has beat Kansas the last two years.
Sell has never played Chiew, a transfer from UNLV.
"She is a very aggressive player with a hard serve," Sell said. "I'll have to talk to the coaches to see
Women's Tennis
how I'll play her."
Garrity said BYU was especially eager to win because it was playing at home and ranked second in the region.
"They are just lurking in our shadow, and I'm sure they would like to win the big match at home," she said.
"There are a few injuries, and Lisa Malliaiah has been sick with the flu for the last week," Garrity said. "We just want a healthy team that we can feel good about."
Kansas will not be playing at full strength, though.
Lisa and her sister Cheryl Mallaiah, North Longwood, Fla., were named as the Region's top 20 freshmen.
"I think their confidence is down because they lost their top three players," Sell said. "We want to take advantage of that."
Both Kansas and BYU lost several of their troop players this season.
Kansas is 0-2 this season, with loses to Duke and William and Mary.

Rugby team playing,partying at Louisiana tournaments
By Matt Tait
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Members of the KU Rugby Football Club agreed that the road trips were what make playing rugby so much fun. However, once a year there is one trip that many players can't wait for
For the past three years, the men's rugby team has traveled to New Orleans for the season opening tournament. This year they are going again. For the players, this tournament is scheduled during the most exciting time of year in New Orleans: Mardi Gras.
"I've got my beads and I'm ready to go," captain Brian Holmes said.
Two vans left yesterday evening with about 50 players on board.
The men's team and the women's team are scheduled to compete in tournaments, which are located in different places.
The men will play in nearby Baton Rouge, La., while the women will play in New Orleans. Afterward, team members will get together for the weekend partying.
Sport of the week
Rugby
Holmes said the teams wanted to play well tomorrow and then party like crazy.
The club has been in existence for 30 years and is one of the larger club sports at the University of Kansas.
"We usually play two to five games a Saturday and set up tents and cook food and just have a good time," said club president John Wiley.
Holmes said that the spring season consists of 10 matches and runs from March to May. Games are played on weekends, usually on Saturdays, and are a day-long event.
Unlike most modern day sports, Wiley said rugby was a community-based sport. It offered a good chance to get to know teammates and even make friends with the opponent.
"You have rivals, but really the whole essence of rubuh is every
thing that goes on is so physical you don't have time to fight," Wiley said. "Instead of holding a grudge, you meet the guys you've been trying to kill and have some fun."
Despite its appearance, team members said that rugby was not as rough as it looked.
"It only looks rough because we don't wear pads." Wiley said.
JUNIOR LEAGUE
The sport, which has existed for more than a century, is a combination of several modern day sports. The tackling of football combined with the passing of basketball and soccer, along with the toughness of wrestling, allows a variety of players to get involved.
Fifteen players are on the field at once, and, depending who has the ball, they are on offense and defense at all times.
The game is played on a field with dimensions similar to a football field. Positions are broken down into forwards and backs and the team members play two 40-minute halves without substitutions.
Members of the Kansas and New Mexico rugby teams leap for the ball. File photo
The scoring is similar to football but with a little different lingo. Five points are scored for a try, in which a player runs across the opponent's tryle. The tryle is the equivalent to the goal line in football. After each try, a conversion kick worth two points is attempted. This essentially makes each score worth seven points.
Various other penalties and rules exist, but the main object of the game is to get the ball at any cost.
Holmes said that the club partially was financed by the University but that most of the money was paid by the players.
The club recruits players and always is looking for more members.
For Jessica Friberg, Topeka junior, rugby offered a change of pace from the mainstream sports.
Holmes said rugby wasn't just a sport, it was a lifestyle.
"The sport is bigger than the game and is a nice combination of friendship along with the physical aspect of playing along with good competition," he said.
Track teams end seasons at home
Men, women hope to use finale as catalyst for championships
By Mike Miller
In their final tune-up before the Big 12 Conference championships, the men's and women's track teams will compete at home tonight in the Kansas Pre-Conference Invitational Meet at Anschutz Sports Pavilion. The meet will be a launching pad into next week. Cameron went to Kansas State.
Kansan sportswriter
The meet will begin with field events. That's where All-American sophomore Scott Russell is looking to recover from a second-place finish last weekend in the 35-pound weight throw. He set a new Kansas and Big 12 record at the Northern Iowa Invitational earlier this season.
"I knew there would be a week when I'd go down," Russell said. "But I just have to keep trying to improve."
The pole vault competition will provide competitive
match-ups in both the men's and women's divisions.
On the men's side, junior Garrett Attig, senior Colby Miller and sophomore Greg Steele have given the Jayhawks depth and reliability. Consistently among the top five finishers throughout the season, both Attig and Miller finished in the top 10 last week at the Husker Invitational, one of the largest meets of the season.
For the women, Andrea Branson and Shannon Age both rank in the nation's top 20. Tonight's meet pits them against K-State's Erin Anderson, currently ranked No.1.
"I need to work on my technique more, but I'm looking forward to seeing Anderson on Friday," Branson said.
The indoor season lasts two months.
Although this is the end of the indoor season, the outdoor track season is just one month away.
"Indoor comes and goes so quick, you really don't notice how tired you might be," sophomore Charlie Gruber said.
Field events are scheduled to begin at 5 p.m., while track events will begin at about 6 p.m. Admission is free.
Men ready for last home swim, with or without long-distance star
By Emily Hughey Kansan sportswriter
Last week the Kansas swim team's senior women said goodbye to Robinson Natatorium in their last collegiate home meet against Iowa State. Now it's the men's turn to say goodbye.
Senior swimmers Mike Blundell, Trent Hartl and Brant People will lead the men's team in its battle against Iowa Saturday in the seniors' last home meet at Robinson.
But the swimmers may be competing without world-ranked distance swimmer TVler Painter.
"He's one of my favorite guys, but he's just not the relevant
thing right now," Kempf said
Coach Gary Kempf suspended Painter for breaking a team policy, but he said that he would not comment about which policy was broken. Although Painter is training with the team, his competitive future is undetermined. Kempf said he did not know whether Painter would compete tomorrow and refused further comment.
Painter was unavailable for comment.
Despite the possible absence of Painter, a major point scorer, the men feel confident that they are prepared for tomorrow's challenge.
After falling to Iowa State 143.5-99.5 without Painter last Saturday, the men's team is looking for redemption. And Kempf, who said he was disappointed in the men's performance last Saturday, said they were on track to swim fast.
"Tyler is a distance swimmer," Blundell said. "With him, we're one of the top distance programs in the country. Without him, we still have a really strong distance program."
"The good thing about this men's team is that they're resilient." Kempf said. "They believe in their ability, and they know that I believe in their ability."
Last week, Kempf cited poor mental preparation as the reason the men's team did not pull through. However, he said he
thought the swimmers' mentalities had improved.
As they approach their last home meet, the men are more focused on swimming fast than on reminiscing. Nevertheless, the meet is something to which they look forward.
"I'm really excited," Blundell said. "It's hard to believe it's my last meet. It was crazy watching the girls last week."
Blundell, Hartl and Peoples all said they would miss the friendships they've made on the team.
"I won't miss the morning workouts, though." Blundell said. Kempf said he would miss the seniors' presence on the team.
"They've been absolutely fantastic for our program," Kemp said. "It's the toughest thing to do as a coach to say goodbye to kids who've given you their heart and soul. But I'm not saying goodbye to them yet."
The men will face Iowa at 2 p.m. tomorrow at Robinson Natatorium. Their next meet, the Conference Championships, will be March 4-6 in Austin, Texas.

"That's the way you like to do it, particularly when you can keep people of that quality," said Buffalo general manager John Butler.

Now they'll have to do it again.
With free agency at hand, teams follow Vikings' lead
The Minnesota Vikings conquered free agency last season by signing all their high-priced, high-quality players.
The Associated Press
Now they'll have to do it again.
As the free agent signing and trading period begins today, the Vikings, who finished 15-1 before being upset by Atlanta in the NFC championship game, have seven starters who are unrestricted free agents and not a lot of money with which to work.
with Carl Pickens, whom they may trade for the two first-round draft picks that come with that tag.
That's because most of it went last season to defensive tackle John Randle, offensive tackle Todd Steussie, running back Robert Smith and wide receiver Jake Reed, to whom the team committed $93 million. They've since re-signed quarterback Randall Cunningham and offensive tackle Korey Stringer, who could have become free agents this year.
There's also an X-factor, the new Cleveland Browns, who went cheap in the expansion draft, leaving them close to $40 million to spend on free agents, meaning they can outbid almost anyone.
that's what makes free agency risky.
H
Bay, who is likely to be given a franchise player tag to protect him. Cincinnati did the same this week
vastly improved offensive line.
Many players are improved by the players around them, like wide Alvin Harper, a standout in Dallas playing opposite Michael Irvine. He did nothing after signing in 1995 with Tampa Bay.
What the Vikings do might turn on what happens with Brad Johnson, who began last season as the starting quarterback, got hurt twice and never got his job back from Cunningham.
the success of the Vikings contrasts with the way other teams have thrown money around with little result. For example, Seattle spent millions on big-name free agents for the second straight year, but finished 8-8, costing coach Dennis Erickson his job. One problem: the revolving door game in which the Seahawks lost center Kevin Mawae, who went to the New York Jets and became the hub of their
last year.
The deepest position in free agency is wide receiver, headed by All-Pro Antonio Freeman of Green
Johnson, due a $1.15 million bonus March 1, may be traded to Baltimore, coached by former Minnesota offensive coordinator Brian Billick. He's by far the most attractive quarterback available in a market that includes Collins, and veteran backups like Rich Gannon of Kansas City and Steve Bone of St. Louis.
That would provide cap room to sign those Vikings who can leave — three quarters of the team's secondary, Pro Bowl linebacker Ed McDaniel, defensive linemen Derrick Alexander, Jerry Ball and Jason Fisk, fullback Chuck Evans and third-down back and kick returner David Palmer.
Three cursed words lead to loss of points and $13,000 penalty
Agassi, leading by a set but trailing in a second-set tiebreaker against 120th-ranked Cecil Mamitt, was defaulted from a tournament for the second time in his career Wednesday night for a series of profanities.
Agassi ejected from tournament
SAN JOSE, Calif. — What separates cursing at yourself in frustration from uttering obscenities that get you tossed out of a tennis tournament? Andre Agassi, ejected from the Sybse Open, says officials overreacted to his comments.
The Associated Press
The default will cost him $13,000 and a loss of rankings points that could drop him one or two places from his No. 7 world ranking.
ATP tour supervisor Tom Barnes said the curses were aimed at linesman Al Klassen.
Agassi said that the curses were directed at himself and that he covered his mouth with his hand when he said the last two of his three obscenities.
"The words I used weren't singing him out at all. To default because one linesman thinks I'm making something personal with him is a bit of a stretch," Agassi said. "The judgment
But as Klassen returned to his chair a second time, Agassi repeated his previous comment and Barnes was called to the court. He conferred with Ulrich, who penalized Agassi for verbal abuse and defaulted him — awarding the second-round match to a stunned Mamilt, who pleaded with Ulrich to continue play.
Michael Chang said all players were aware of the rules about defaulting on the third violation, though he was somewhat surprised at Agassi's ejection.
Agassi, seeded second in the tournament, won the first set 6-0 in just 18 minutes against Mamit, a qualifier who had never made it past the second round of an ATP tour event. But in the second-set tiebreaker, trailing four points to none, a frustrated Agassi began to curse.
was made that the line was crossed. I don't think the line was crossed. I wasn't even making eye contact with the linesman."
He was penalized a point for another audible obscenity. Aggasi said he knew the next such violation would result in default.
Klassen went to chair impire Steve Ulrich to report Agassi's first comment, and Agassi was warned for an audible obscenity. As Klassen returned to his chair, Agassi made a muffled comment.
"it's not an easy decision to make," said Chang, the tournament's fourth
seed. "Andre's such a great draw in San Jose, and you don't want to lose a guy like that."
"It's not the way you ever want to go out of a tournament," Agassi said. "I'm not too happy about it."
Barnes announced yesterday that Agassi would be fined $7,500 for the outburst and would forfeit the $5,500 in
Tournament director Barry MacKay also was stunned at the exit of his best attraction.
Agassi: This is the second default of his career.
"Obviously, it's a big disappointment," MacKay said. "It was shaping up to be a great match. I wasn't lis-

It was the second default of Agassi's career. He was ejected from the RCA Championships in Indianapolis in 1996 for cursing officials during a match against Daniel Nestor in which Agassi also won the first set and was struggling in the second.

Cracking the candy code
(USPS 650-640)
1057
Chocolate manufactures often include maps for their confections but for some consumers, the mystery is half the fun
By Brian Baker Special to the Kansan
Among the classic Valentine's day gifts of roses, stuffed animals and unmentionables, one item carries a particularly heavy cultural onus; the box of chocolates.
But is it really like a box of chocolates? Centuries ago, people tried to predict the future by examining stars, tea leaves and animal entrails. But they still never knew what they were going to get.
However, with the advent of scientific thought, humans discovered that certain events could be reliably predicted. Using mathematics, a person could determine the precise time and day of an eclipse, or the exact path of a cannonball.
Why not a box of chocolates?
Brian Berish, vice president of marketing at Russell Stover Candies, said that early this century a universal candy code of shapes and letters existed.
Cecil Adams,writes of this code in the book "More of the Straight Dope."
Adams wrote that peppermint was round, flat and unmarked. Orange cream was round with an "O" on top. Vanilla caramel was a square "V." Vanilla cream was a round "V."
Berish said that because of increasing mechanization in the candy industry, the code was abandoned in the 1940s.
Today, the only remnant of the universal candy code is a general rule of thumb.
"Square or rectangular shaped candies have caramel, chewy, or solid contents," Berish said. "Oval or round candies have cream, sauce, cherry, nut, or coconut."
Although the map may give consumers a guide for picking candy, Berish said the company did not try to eliminate all of the surprises.
"Part of the enjoyment is looking at all the pieces. Uncertainty is part of the intrigue." Berish said
However, in 1993, we acquired Whit- man's candies, which has included a map' in their boxes for decades," Berish said. "Soon afterwards, we started including a map in our own 'bow' line of assorted choco-lates."
Jeremy Engels, Wichita freshman, admitted that he pulls candy apart and puts it back in the box if he doesn't like it.
"I guess I pull the candy apart because that's how my mom always does it," he said.
Russell Stover conducted a survey to find the method consumers used when trying boxed chocolate.

Candy Facts
The following information is from the Wichita Business Journal from Dec. 22,1997,and the Chocolate Manufacturers Association and the National Confectioners Association:
- Women are twice as likely as men to buy boxed chocolates.
Eight percent of men believe that giving boxed chocolates increases their chances for sex.
More than one quarter of all Americans hide their boxed chocolates from other household members.
America's favorite boxed chocolate center is caramel, followed by nuts and coconut
Americans consume an average of 3.2 billion pounds of chocolate each year, which is 11.7 pounds per person.
More than 36 million heart-shaped boxes of chocolate are sold for Valentine's Day.
Richard Cadbury introduced the first Valentine's Day candy box in 1868.
Commentary
Forged celebration of love lurks at bottom of holiday food chain
Nobody loves a good holiday more than I do. There's something so incredibly American about taking the day off, that I swell with patriotism every time I think about burning a holiday weekend on the couch in front of the tube.
admit it; holidays are all about me. If a holiday wants some recognition from me, it should be prepared to pay a little kickback.
But a holiday is only a true holiday if I get the day off. I
Thanksgiving is a great example; I pay homage to the earliest
Cameron Popp
settlers of our country. In exchange for my attention, Thanksgiving gives me two or three days off. This arrangement keeps the relationship between holiday and mankind alive and kicking.
The problem with this setup lies with holidays like Valentine's Day. St. Valentine expects me to remember him and celebrate love while he offers
absolutely nothing in return. If the post office stays open and I'm in school, it ain't a real holiday. In the holiday food chain, Valentine's Day dwells with the other plankton like St. Patrick's Day or Flag Day.
Is the day celebrating love only as important as the holiday celebrating Irish drunkenness or some sort of Junior Varsity Independence Day? These lesser holidays simply cannot compete with Veterans Day, Memorial Day or Labor Day when it comes to the I-scratch-your-back-you-cratch-mine reward system. What better way to celebrate a holiday than by giving us a day off?
To its credit, for all the problems I may have with Valentine's Day, I'd rather celebrate it a thousand times more than any Canadian holiday. The sad reality is the Canadians may be the most underprivileged of Earth's many citizens because they are forced to celebrate some depressingly mundane holidays.
Within the next twelve months, our friends from the 51st state will be celebrating Citizenship Day and Boxing Day. I can hear the coffee shops in Manitoba now:
"Got big plans for Citizenship Dav. eh AndV?"
"Nah, Carol and me and the kids are takin' a little trip for Boxing Day, though. At least we're not American, eh?
Men, we have to face it: Valentine's Day is a trap. You know as well as I that this holiday was created by women working in conjunction with the flower cartel to boost lagging sales (this is my assumption, anyway) and has successfully turned the rose into the most lucrative cash cow in the American economy today.
And what about candy? This may be the single most counterintuitive gift ever conceived of by man. Demonically possessed women work out for hours on end to trim, tone and sculpt every inch of their bodies. After six grueling rounds of kick boxing followed by an hour on an exercise bike, their ritual dictates that they gaze critically
Think about what you're getting, guys — without hesitation you pay $3 for a dead plant worth eight cents of sunlight, water, and labor. To make matters worse the question "Why don't you do this more often?" will inevitably follow your romantic gift. Then you're stuck.
Their diet consists of a special blend of grass, bark, and gravel washed down with a Diet Coke. The health-conscious American woman pours millions of dollars each year into cures for weighing too much. How do we reward them? By giving them heart-shaped boxes packed with balls of fat dipped in calories and laced with just enough sugar to keep them coming back for more.
Although I dislike Valentine's Day, I admire the women who conspired to create it. Once upon a time (as I'm told), a bunch of women got together and decided they wanted flowers, candy, and free dinner once a year. Then, as a group, they went out to badger the men in their lives until they prevailed.
Their reward: an official holiday. While I am personally disappointed with the fruits of their labor, I respect and admire their ambition and wish all the ladies out there a happy Valentine's Day. As for me, I'll eagerly be anticipating Citizenship Day provided I get the day off.

Men prepare for Super Bowl of love
Creating ideal holiday involves good strategy
After a year of waiting, it has finally arrived. The Sunday of all Sundays, the day when we separate the men from the boys. Their adrenaline pumps and their hearts skip a beat. People are sometimes known to burst
into tears of the greatest joy or utter disappointment. This is the day when only the strong, experienced and brave will survive.
A
You find yourself confused, asking, "Didn't they already play
Kelli Colyer
already play the Super Bowl?" Or "Is this the longest post-game coverage FOX could possibly throw at us?"
No, I am talking about the most brutal holiday in the history of mankind: Valentine's Day.
The activities that surround Valentine's Day make the holiday a sport in itself. In fact, the holiday boasts many similarities to athletic events on both the professional and collegiate levels.
Valentine's Day, much like sports, can be a flirting game between men and women. Also like in sports, perfecting Valentine's Day plans take a lot of practice and perseverance. Photo illustration by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN
In order to be recognized as a sport in today's commercial world, there must be some form of corporate sponsorship and media hype. A simple walk through a grocery store reveals an abundance of Valentines cards adorned with the faces of Mickey Mouse, N'Sync and even our own Jayhawk. The holiday will inevitably reach the status of a pure sport when the entire day has one primary sponsor. I can just imagine my little sister showing me the candy she received on the YAHOO.COM
VALENTINE'S DAY.
St. Valentine even thought of a mascot for his holiday. We affectionately call him Cupid. The premise of a fat baby in diapers shooting arrows at people is not any more ridiculous than the dancing, dunking Gorilla or the lovable clucking San Diego Chicken.
If you aren't buying into the notion of a holiday as an athletic event, consider this. Have you ever forgotten to buy your sweetie a gift and found yourself running around town as the last flower shop closes? It takes a lot of agility to play the game of Valentine's Day correctly.
LAZING EXPERIENCE
No other day seems to terrify men as much as this one. It is a tumultuous contest pitting men versus women, and women have a distinct dominance.
Women generally are on the receiving end of the action. They wait for their boyfriends to plan a secret romantic evening. They catch this kick-off and run like hell for some gain on the return.
Granted, women oftentimes kick off first and spend days planning the perfect gift or evening. But the male continually shoulders most of the responsibility.
Unfortunately, like all great sporting events, no matter how creative and successful they have been in the past, the men find themselves dauntingly attempting to surpass the previous year's activities. They feel like the Chicago Bulls after their 72-10 season in '95-'96: the fans (girlfriends) expect more the next year. And if men fail, like the athlete who made one bad move during an otherwise consistent season, they watch their stock plummet. What if he isn't resigned for the ensuing season? Depending on the degree of failure, he may or may not be picked up by another team, or girl.
By now, most men have given up hope of winning the Valentine's Day battle.
But don't worry. Help is available in the form of the language
every male understands: sports. Think of the holiday — and your relationship — as just another football or basketball game. It takes a lot of practice and even Michael Jordan made mistakes. Do you think he perfected his shot off the dribble the first time he stepped on the court?
It takes some practice and a lot of time studying the opposition. You have to know how to fake your opponent out in order to
maintain the element of surprise.
No matter how much a girl claims to hate secrets, if you keep your plays confidential, you will be a championship contender. After all, if you play according to the book, in a few years you could both end up winning the ultimate sporting prize: the ring.

St. Valentine's heart not in the right place
The Associated Press
DUBLIN, Ireland — A quiet Carmelite priory off a bustling Dublin street holds a special place in Irish hearts, for here lie the revered remains of St. Valentine.
At least that's what the splintering 163-year-old parchment from Pope Gregory XVI says—although it turns out that the Roman Catholic Church may have left St. Valentine's heart in Scotland and reserved other martyred body parts for his Italian hometown.
Still, that doesn't dissuade romantic Dubliners from claiming Valentine as theirs, and theirs alone.
"St. Valentine gave his life in defense of pure love. He's an inspirational figure," says Miceal Browne, kneeling at dusk inside Whitefriars Street Catholic Church beside his wife of 24 years. Aoife.
Like hundreds of other couples, the Brownes make pilgrimages to the church on their wedding anniversary in appreciation of St. Valentine, whose remains lie in a sealed steel casket within the chapel's white marble altar.
They plan to book a spot on the church's long waiting list to formally renew their vows in 2000.
Couples in Glasgow, Scotland, and Terni, Italy, make similar pilgrimages to rival resting places for Valentine, one of
Christianity's earliest saints, whose promotion of marriage cost him his life.
Claudius Caesar II ordered Valentine imprisoned because he oversaw the marriages of Roman soldiers in violation of Rome's edict that its soldiers remain single, on the grounds it made them better fighters.
The Benedictine priests of the Blessed John Duns Scotus Church in Glasgow insist the Vatican gave them the remains of the saint's heart in 1868.
Valentine was sentenced to death in 269 A.D. by a judge named Asterius. The future saint cured Asterius' daughter of blindness and wrote her a final letter the night before he was beheaded. He inspired today's romantic missives by signing it, "From your Valen tine."
"Often times, the church has seen fit to break up the remains of a saint to provide relics of veneration," explains the Rev. Peter Hall of the Scottish church.
"It would be good to set the record straight about — not to be too crude about it — but about whose bits are where." he adds.

IRELAND
The parish priest in Dublin, the Rev. Frank O'Gara, admits he's irritated by the rival claims. He points with determination to the January 1836 letter from Pope
accompanied wooden box from Rome.
The letter says that, in recognition of the good work of Irish Carmelites, the remains of St. Valentine had been exhumed from a Roman cemetery and put into the box, "well-closed, tied with a red silk ribbon and sealed with our seals."
"None of the other churches have such definitive proof," O'Gara says. "To be told that the tomb of B. Valentine in our church is somehow unauthentic or incomplete is annoying. Our parish's associations with the saint run very deep and true."
Miceal Browne says on Valentine's Day, it should be just the thought that counts.
"As a Catholic," he says, you've just got to have faith and not ask too many questions."
Valentine's history not candy-sweet
By Hilary Evans
Special to the Kansan
When lovers announce their devotion to one another on Valentine's Day with candy, balloons, poems and flowers, many don't know that the day's history is one of secrecy and deceit.
and promises to lovers be forgotten.
In A.D. 207, many wars broke out in the Roman Empire. Emperor Claudius Caesar II, known as Claudius the Cruel, called on many men to fight in these wars. The men summoned didn't want to leave their wives or lovers, and Claudius II was enraged that so few of his soldiers were prepared to fight for their country. He ordered that no marriages be celebrated
The Bishop of Interamna, Claudius Valentine, celebrated mass near the royal palace. He disobeyed the emperor's decree and secretly performed marriages. When Claudius II discovered the defiance, he imprisoned the bishop and had him clubbed and beheaded.
Legend suggests that while in prison Valentine fell in love with the jail keeper's daughter, who was blind. Valentine miraculously cured her. He closed a farewell letter to her before he died with the phrase, "From your Valentine."
Valentine was beheaded Feb. 14,
the eve of the Roman holiday called
the Feast of Lupercalia.
When Christianity was firmly established in Rome, the church replaced the Festival of Lupercalia with Valentine's Day.

Holiday's meaning questioned
Some students think holiday too one-sided
By Becky Lake Special to the Kansan
The realization that Valentine's Day is approaching always brings the yearly question of what to buy a significant other.
Every year, both men and women struggle to answer that question in order to provide a perfect, or at least adequate, Valentine's Day experience.
some students said they regarded the holiday as a genuine celebration of love, while others said they thought it was expensive and commercialized.

I don't know what you're asking for. I am not sure if you are asking for information about the image or just a general comment on it.
Let me re-read the text carefully.
"Sorry, I couldn't find the text in my mind. I will try to provide as much detail as possible."
In the image, two people are facing each other and engaging in a conversation. The person on the left is pointing at the person on the right with their finger. Both individuals appear to be smiling and looking at each other. The background is plain and light-colored.
But whatever Valentine's Day philosophy KU students believed, most said that gender roles were part of the holiday and certain responsibilities and expectations came with those roles.
Some men said they found the holiday one-sided, with the pressure of the day's success resting on their shoulders.
"Girls want more out of it and are more into the romantic side of it, while guys are just doing it for the girls," said Tarek Albaghal, Leavenworth junior.
Matt Paustian, Laramie, Wyo., senior, said that he thought a man's preparation for the holiday was done more to fend off consequences than to display love.
"I think it's something guys think they have to do or their girlfriends will get mad at them," he said.

Jen Burns, Shawnee senior, said she understood why some men despired the holiday.
"I think most guys dread it because the women always expect too much," she said.
Though some men are frustrated with the responsibilities of Valentine's day, others still see the holiday as a worthwhile celebration.
"I think it's an important holiday because even though it might have lost what it was supposed to be, it gives you the chance to catch up with the person you love and let them know again," said Tom Harris. Overland Park junior.
"Valentine's Day is the ultimate I'm sorry day," he said. "You can make amends on Valentine's."
Justin Carlson, Overland Park freshman, appreciated the holiday for a different reason. Carlson said he saw Valentine's Day as a convenient opportunity to escape possible relationship problems.
Though Carlson and Harris can find merit in Valentine's Day, not
all females echo their sentiments.
Nancy Wilcox, Winfield junior, found the holiday to be grossly commercialized.
"It is a holiday generated by Hallmark, Dove chocolates and flower companies," she said.
Emily Beste, Chicago, Ill., freshman, also said the holiday was depressing.
"I think most females generally don't like it because you either are not dating anyone and spend it alone, or you end up not getting what you wanted out of it," she said
sophomore, said she saw the holiday as fun regardless of dating status.
Yet Kate McGee, Loveland, Colo..
"I think it's a really fun day," she said. "You can make it fun regardless of whether or not you're single."
Despite conflicting opinions about whether Valentine's Day is worthwhile or worthless, both genders indulge in convention year after year.
Whether planning a romantic, special day for a loved one or merely going through the motions, men and women continually participate in a holiday they either love or despise.

Dance presents animalistic side of sex
Museum teaches love in the wild
By Matt Merkel-Hess Special to the Kansan
Dance the night away next to the diorama and learn how wild things do the wild thing tomorrow night at the Natural History Museum's second annual "Survival of the Sexiest Dance."
The event includes desserts, coffee and soft drinks catered by the Kansas Union, music by Lawrence's Swing 39 and presentations by scientists about love and romance in the wild kingdom.
The dance lasts from 8:30 to midnight. Tickets can be purchased at the museum and cost $21 per person in advance and $25 the day of the event.
"It's not the kind of thing your biology teacher in high school taught you," said Jama Kolosick, director of public education at the museum. "It's decidedly an adult event."
There is no student discount offered because this is the lowest possible price the museum could afford to charge for the event, Kolosick said.
Swing 39 will return this year to get the dance floor hopping. Reese Wendler, manager for Swing 39, said last year's crowd was tentative about dancing at first, but by the end of the night, everyone danced to the band's mix of originals and standards.
"It's an innovative way to spend Valentine's Day." Wendler said.
About 160 people attended last year, Kolosick said. This year, she expects 300. She said that she hoped the event would attract a new audience to the museum.
"The music is compelling, but we're making the other stuff interesting as well." Kolosick said.
Four floors of the museum will be filled with tables illuminated by candles, presentations and games. Prizes include candy, massages and a hotel stay.
"It's far more special than a candlelight dinner," said Alex Fraser, Lawrence graduate student and event volunteer, who will give the presentation on aphrodiasiacs.
Fraser's presentation will cover everything from red wine and chocolate to a bloody elephant trunk.
Fraser said that an aphrodisiac was anything that increased sexual desire or sexual performance.
She said aphrodiascias fell into four general categories: blood rushing, magical, nutritional and doctrine of similarity. Doctrine of similarity aphrodiascias are anything that looks like something sexual, such as a rhinoceros' horn, she said.
Fraser also gave a presentation on aphrodisiacs at last year's dance.
"Some older gentlemen were very interested in items that increased blood rushing to certain areas," Fraser said.
While chocolate, a mare's tale or a bloody half of an elephant's trunk are used as aphrodisiacs. Fraser said they still were just things to get you in the mood.
"The best aphrodisiac is the human mind," Fraser said.
Other presentations include how female frogs recognize their mate's voices in the dark and dinosaur vocalization.
"We think all this stuff is ridiculous," Kolosick. "But we do the same stuff other organisms do to get mates."
The museum chose this event because sexual reproduction is central to living organisms, Kolosick said.
"For biologists, sexual reproduction is how species survive," she said. "But in the human context, we have a lot of layers of ideas that affect the way people feel about sexuality."
Beth Huerter, visitor services manager, said the dance wasn't meant just for couples or dates.
"Come as a group with friends," Huerter said. "It's not nasty; it's not dirty. It's just the animal kingdom."

Group to bring issue of same-sex marriage to light
By Clay McCuistion Special to the Kansan
Politically Active Queers, a new campus group, is sponsoring a presentation today that explores the topic of same-sex marriage.
Marvin Decker, co-president of Politically Active Queers, said he hoped the presentation would start a dialogue.
The presentation's headline is Neil Axton, an attorney at Axton's Legal Services, 2412 Alabama St. He will speak at 3:30 p.m. at the Jayhawk Room in the Kansas Union.
The presentation is scheduled for today because Feb. 12 is both Lincoln's Birthday — signifying liberty — and two days before Valentine's Day — signifying love.
"In the short term, we want to answer questions people have about the issue. We want to bring the issue to light," Decker said. "Once we've exposed this to people, we can get feedback and determine a course to take for future action."
"The purpose of Freedom to Marry Day is to bring more attention to the issue of same-sex marriage and to promote activist work in the area." Decker said.
The Freedom to Marry Coalition, a group of human rights activists, first observed the date in 1998.
"The ability to marry affects health insurance, housing, adoption," Decker said. "Special privileges are denied to same-sex couples because they can't be legally married."
According to the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force, no state in the United States allows legally binding same-sex marriages.
In 1996, Congress passed the Defense of Marriage Act, which federally defines marriage as a contract occurring between members of the opposite sex. Thirty states, including Kansas, have laws of their own specifically banning such marriages.
"You get really, really mad," said Lisa Braun, co-president of Politically Active Quers. "You're totally excluded from something society holds so up there and valued. This is a think some people take for granted."
The Freedom to Marry Coalition founded the day to change the law.
"Ideally, marriage laws won't say that only a man and a woman can get married." Braun said. "Instead, they will say two people can marry — including all the benefits that go along with it."
Decker said he agreed.
"Relationships should be a private matter between individuals," he said. "You shouldn't dictate to others how they should live their lives — who they have relationships with, who they marry. It's a matter of respect."
"Any sort of inequality is a serious problem," Decker said. "It sets a standard for the inferiority of a group, and it promotes hostility toward queer folk."
Braun said she believed marriage laws would change someday.

COME WRITE FOR THE KANSAN
nce upon a time there was a Kansan reporter. One day, his reporting world fell into tiny little pieces. His sources wouldn't call him, an angry professor was on his back, his editors were standing by with a whip and his girlfriend said he was married to his work. On the verge of committing himself to a mental institution because of a breakdown, he looked down and realized...his socks didn't match. Poor guy. He has too many stories to do. Then came along Jane, the easy-going Kansan correspondent—with matching socks. Jane saved the stories, spoke with the sources and helped the poor reporter get to the mental institution. We need more folks like Jane. C'mon. Be a Kansan correspondent.
There will be a Kansan Correspondents meeting on Monday, February 22, at room 100 in Stauffer Flint Hall.

Local businesses get ready for Valentine's onslaught
By Paula Spreitzer Special to the Kansan
With two days left until Valentine's Day, students may be panicking if they haven't found the perfect gift for their special someone.
But local businesses have last-minute solutions.
Susan Engle, professional Florist and co-owner of The Flower Shoppe 1101 Massachusetts St., and Englewood Florists, 939 Massachusetts St. said her businesses had prepared for the last-minute rush.
"We really started planning after last Valentine's Day." Enkle said.
She said the florists started by looking at any areas in which there were problems and then determined what could be improved for the next year.
Every year, they prepare by having additional delivery drivers on hand. They also will have extended hours on Saturday and will be open on Sunday for both pick-up and delivery.
"Last year, we had 43 extra delivery drivers on Valentine's Day. Ordinarily, we have two a day," she said.
Although additional delivery drivers will be available, there will be limited delivery on Sunday.
"Deliveries will go out early on Sunday, but drivers may not make third
and fourth runs." Engle said.
In spite of the extra help during the weekend, Engle said customers ordering flowers on Saturday or Sunday should consider picking the flowers up themselves.
"We may not be able to deliver as quickly as you could yourself," she said. "Sometimes, I think it's really romantic for someone to take their Valentine the flowers themselves."
Engle said things could get hectic with many people trying to place orders at the same time.
"Sometimes the lines get busy," she said. "Be patient with florists."
Those who do decide to have a flowering bouquet delivered to their Valentine can help eliminate delays by having the method of payment ready before calling, Engle said. In addition, customers should know the complete address and phone number of the person to whom the flowers are to be delivered.
Local restaurants, such as Teller's, 746 Massachusetts St., also are expecting an increase in business this weekend.
Johnny Johnson, dining supervisor at Teller's, said they were expecting a crowd.
He said it would be much busier than the average Sunday evening.
He said he thought that part of the
allege of the Italian restaurant was the romantic atmosphere it offered.
"It's a lover's atmosphere, if you will." Johnson said.
After the flowers are accounted for, some students may want to give their significant others a gift.
Finding the ideal gift can prove challenging enough without the pressure of time constraints when shoppers find themselves searching for that perfect item on the eve of Valentine's Day.
Parties of six or more can make reservations, he said. Otherwise, couples should expect a wait.
"It's really difficult for me to find the right gift for someone, especially if I don't have a lot of time for shopping," said Sarah Kurien, Lenexa freshman.
However, finding a personalized gift doesn't necessarily require a trip to an exclusive specialty store.
"For my boyfriend, I wrote the story of how we met, and put with pictures of us together," said Amy Randolph, Lenexa freshman. "It didn't cost any money, and it's more personal."
Emily Davis, Overland Park freshman, said she enjoyed receiving handcrafted gifts.
"It's truly from the heart that way," she said. "Of course, candy and flowers can't hurt."
SUA offers activities for the wild at heart
By Tiffany Seeman Special to the Kansan
Posing for a picture with a life-size cutout of James Dean or Xena the Warrior Princess are just two of the free activities available today at the Kansas Union.
Student Union Activities and the Kansas and Burge Unions are sponsoring "Wild at Heart," a Valentine's Day extravaganza from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the fourth floor of the Union.
"Valentine's Day is a popular day for people to come out and participate in activities," said Katrina Widholm Warren, marketing and promotions coordinator for the Kansas and Burge Unions.
To the Harlem Shakes go here
The Valentine's Day celebration is
an annual activity that features free caricature drawings, astrological love forecasts, stations to make Valentines and cake and punch.
New this year to the program is karaoke.
"People can stop and sing or just listen to someone else," Widholm Warren said.
Another addition is that there will be drawings for prizes throughout the entire Kansas Union.
SUA and the Kansas and Burge Unions also are sponsoring a "Worst Date" essay contest. Students can write about their most horrific date experiences and submit them. The essays will be posted in the Union, and prizes will be awarded next
week.
The extravaganza also will offer possibilities for last minute Valentine's Day gifts. Roses, carnations, balloons and cookies will be for sale.
Watkins Memorial Health Center and the Douglas County AIDS Project also will have booths with educational material available.
"It is always a hassle to find a great Valentine's Day present and the 'Wild at Heart' day will make it a lot easier," said Chris Jones, Prairie Village service
"The day is just a fun event sponsored by SUA and the Kansas and Burge Unions," Widholm Warren said. "And we encourage everyone to come over to the Union and enjoy the activities."

Flowers, cards win out as top tokens of holiday affection
By Joe McPeek
Special to the Kansan
It is that time of year again
Time to go out and try to find the right gift for that special one in your life, the gift that could decide the future of a young relationship or the tempo of a lasting one.
in the 40 years that Bill Nye has owned the Flower Market, 826 Air St., he has found that flowers, especially roses, were a popular choice.
"I'd rather get flowers," said Morrissa Berger, Winchester, Va., freshman. "I don't know why. I guess it's because the beauty of a flower symbolizes that he sees the same thing in me without him saying anything."
Gifts can range from flowers or stuffed animals to jewelry or lingerie
Rheene Yambot, Olathe freshman, agreed.
kneene Yambet, Olathe freshman, agreed. "Flowers are more special," she said. "They show that the person cares about you and doesn't feel like they need to buy you something expensive like jewelry or something to prove that they care."
"Living here in Lawrence with the University and all, everybody's got to have roses," he said. "Of course, red is the most popular. It says, 'I love you.'"
Cards are another common gift during the Valentine's season.
"Cards always sell the best, then candy, stuffed animals and balloons," said Vicki Wilkinson, manager of Rod's Hallmark Shop, 8.E. Seventh St.
Valentine's Day cards come with a variety of messages, but Wilkinson said some types were more popular than others.
"Of course romantic sell better than fun ones, but they both sell well."
Although many students embark on a quest for a perfect gift to buy, they said when it came to receiving them,the amount of money spent did not really matter.
For many, quality time with another person was the most important part of the holiday.
"I would be happy with a phone call," Berger said.

Money not necessary on day devoted to affection, love
Inexpensive gifts include stargazing homemade dinners
By Kursten Phelps Special to the Kansan
Money — or the lack of — is a lingering issue for college students when Valentine's Day rolls around.
According to students, there are ways to display love and affection for significant others even if the students' wallets hold only dust and maxed-out credit cards.
Eliza Bennett, Marion sophomore,
said food always was a good way to
get around the money crunch.
"My boyfriend Sam and I are both broke, so we're going to make a romantic dinner for two together," Bennett said. "We're going to make it a picnic by eating outside, using his gas grill to keep us warm."
Cooking dinner is a popular solution for students who are short on cash.
"For our first Valentine's Day, my boyfriend and I made dinner together at his apartment. It was nice to have a more intimate atmosphere than at a busy restaurant," said Aimee Buckland, Topeka senior.
There are other ways to make that special someone smile without breaking the bank account. Janea Patterson, Pittsburg junior, said she hadn't decided what she would do on Valentine's Day with her fiancé.
"I've got a few ideas like making him a card with construction paper, maybe go to the park, or go visit his parents because he likes it when I spend time with them," Patterson said. "I think I may write him some love poems, too, because he used to write poems for me, so I thought it would be nice to do some for him."
Jake Schmitz, Marysville freshman, agreed that poetry was a good option for students struggling to
make ends meet.
"If I was broke, I'd probably write a poem," he said. "Girls kind of dig that, I guess. You'd have to make it meaningful and from the heart, though."
Tina Kim, Olathe senior, said, "I'm in a long-distance relationship, but if my boyfriend were here, we could watch the sun set, or watch the stars at Clinton Lake. And you can always make a Valentine. That always works."
Matt Haug, Topeka junior, agreed that if all else failed, making a gift was always an option.
"You can always make something for your girlfriend. That's always good. As long as it's meaningful, it's a good idea," Haug said.
Nick Peak, Manhattan freshman,
said that with a little effort, a nice gift at a manageable price was possible.
"The key is to bargain hunt. There's lots of stores out there where you can get nice things relatively inexpensive," Peak said "I found a nice ring for my girlfriend one year for $15."
Some students said they tried to find money any way they could.
Megan Dunn, Osawatomie freshman, said she usually found a way around not having any money.
I always end up dipping into my savings account when I'm broke," Dunn said.
Eric Snider, Wichita sophomore, said he had found many ways to raise the necessary funds for a proper Valentine's Day.
"You can go to the bookstore and turn in your receipts to get your rebate. You could probably squeak 15 bucks out of that. Then there's always recycling aluminum cans, and if you don't mind needles, selling plasma is a quick and easy way to make some cash." Snider said.
Snider also suggested asking parents for a loan.
Snider added that it shouldn't matter how much someone spent
on their date. He said the best gifts came from the heart.
"A homemade Valentine is a quick way to a lady's heart. But it has to be a good one, not cheesy." Snider said.
Sometimes, even when someone has budgeted for a great Valentine's Day, the unexpected can happen.
"One year, I had this big date all planned out," said Derek John, Topeka junior. "I took this girl to a really nice restaurant, and we were enjoying our meal. Halfway through the meal, I realized I didn't have any cash, and my checkbook was in my room. So I excused myself, snuck outside and called my best friend. Basically, he broke into my room, got my checkbook and met me outside the restaurant to give it to me.
"He was totally there for me in the clutch, and the girl never knew what was going on. That was a crazy Valentine's Day," he said.

"If I had a girlfriend, it might be a different story," he said. "I might take this girl out. We'll see what happens."
Tucker Poling, Joplin, Mo., sophomore, said he probably would go out to dinner with his girlfriend on Valentine's Day. He said he hadn't thought much about the holiday. "But my girlfriend has," Poling said.

Long-distance sweethearts still celebrate Valentine's Day
KEEP JOIN COUNTRY
NICE ANGLAND
By Kate Williams Special to the Kansan
A nice romantic dinner for two,
a $400 plane ticket, one lost
suitcase and a three-hour lay-
over.
or many KU students making plans for Valentine's Day isn't so simple when they're in Lawrence and their significant others are not. Long trips, expensive phone calls and receiving Valentine's wishes that are delivered by the mailman rather than the one who sends them marks the holiday.
Whitney Grabinski, Iowa City, Iowa, freshman, has dealt with the long-distance Valentine's day before.
"Last year my boyfriend and I hadn't been together for very long, so we just sent cards and talked on the phone," she said. "We didn't try to do anything really special."
But this year, Grabinski will fly to Tempe, Ariz., to visit her boyfriend at Arizona State University.
"He is paying for my plane ticket, so that is about the best
Jacque Fardelman, Lansing senior, decided she wanted to do whatever it would take to spend Valentine's Day with her boyfriend, even though she and her boyfriend, who attends Methodist College in Fayetteville, N.C., have been together only a short time
present I could get," she said.
"He was going to buy me a ticket so that I could fly down there, but the cheapest one we could find was $400, and I didn't want him to have to spend that much money," she said. "I was heartbroken because I didn't know what I was going to do."
Frustrated, Fardelman said she called Vanguard Airlines in Kansas City. She tearfully explained her situation to the operator and told him that she wanted to get as close to Fayetteville as possible for as little as possible.
The airline was able to find a ticket for $288. But at the operator's urging, she didn't buy it.
"He said that he was going to try and find a better deal, and so he took my name and phone number," Fardelman said.
An hour later, the operator called back and told Fardelman that she had a roundtrip ticket to either Myrtle Beach or Atlanta, for free.
"He said that he had reserved me a buddy ticket, which meant that I would fly for free as a friend of his. I couldn't believe it. It really was a miracle for me," Fardelman said. "I went from not knowing how I was going to make it through the year to not knowing how I could possibly thank this person that I didn't even know."
son that didn't even know. A situation like Fardelman's is truly unusual, and not everyone is lucky enough to be able to travel on Valentine's Day. Phone calls, cards and gifts offer solutions and
make surviving the day alone a little bit easier.
Chip Waite, manager of Mailboxes Etc., 3514 Clinton Parkway, sees an increase in the number of small packages sent around Valentine's Day, he said.
"The most popular things for college-age women to send are cookies and photo collages," he said, "Guys usually send stuffed animals. We see a lot of teddy bears."

Eric Corp, the owner of Mailboxes Etc., said the most unusual gift he had ever packed was a bouquet of balloons. "The guy wanted them to be sent with confetti and already filled with helium so that when his girlfriend opened the box they would fly out." Corp said
But few would dispute the fact that the more distance there is, the harder it is to celebrate.

Commentary
Day for lovers less than sweet for those who are single
they're everywhere. Holding hands as they walk to class, kissing at the bus stop and stopping to gaze into each other's eyes. There is no escaping the nauseating displays of affection from the scores of couples who seem to seep out of the woodwork during this time of year.
For the happy lovebirds, Valentine's Day provides an even better excuse to shower each other with affection. This is all very well for those lucky enough to have found true love. But for the lonely singles that will be forgotten, Feb. 14 is a day we'd like to cross off the calendars forever.
Although most people don't con sider Valentine's Day a major holiday, it is hard to ignore all the sapy greeting cards and chocolate hearts that have been shoved in our faces for the past month. We were taught at an
early age that Valentine's Day was a big deal, with class parties and little cartoon character valentine;
as we progressed in school, it was no longer an unspoken rule that every child in the class get cards from everyone else. We were able to choose whom we wanted as our valentines. Watching all the

happiness and love around us' on Valentine's Day can make us like that sad fourth grader holding his empty box.
Single people are virtually excluded from any Valentine's Day celebrations. No one will send us chocolates, flowers or musky love notes. If we want to go out to dinner, we must make reservations weeks in advance or wait in ridiculously long lines. By the end of the day we begin to wonder what is wrong with us that has caused Cupid's arrow to miss so many times.
Single students share different views on Valentine's Day. Many feel some resentment towards the holiday, while others don't care at all.
"Valentine's Day sucks!" said Mike Pugh, Washington, Mo., sophomore. "You realize how pathetic your life really is. I'm almost 20 years old and still single."
After coming to college, some students began to see Valentine's Day in a different light.
"We're not going to sit around and feel sorry for ourselves. We have more fun without guys anywav"

"It had never been a big deal to me until this year because I see all these people together, and I realize how great it would be to have someone," said Trusha Bhatt, Overland Park freshman.
Other people see their singleness as an advantage because it frees them from the stress and financial burden that comes with searching for the perfect gift.
Friends are an essential tool for curing the alone-on-Valentine's blues. Instead of staying in and getting depressed, it is a good idea to plan alternative activities on this night. From girls' nights out to merciless male — or female — bashing, being in the company of other single people can help relieve some lonely feelings.
"We're not going to sit around and feel sorry for ourselves. We have more fun without guys anyway," she said.
Bhatt said she planned to spend Sunday night with her unattached girlfriends.
Kate Haugan, Overland Park freshman, has an unusual evening planned.
single people are invited. Err — unless I get a date. If that happens, party's canceled," Haugan said.
"Last year my mom gave me a plant for Valentine's Day. I'm very proud of keeping it alive for an entire year, so I'm having a birthday party and only
Pugh is spending his Valentine's Day night the same way he spends any other night; in his room studying for his organic chemistry test.
Somehow it doesn't seem fair that people in love, who experience the happiness of having someone everyday, also have their own holiday. It's easy for single people to harbor some resentment toward Valentine's Day, but remember how quickly the tables can turn. Next year may find us spending Feb. 14 with someone special, while the happy lovebirds we envy so much sit at home feeling lonely.

Holiday holds special significance for five KU student 'Valentines'
By Mindie Miller Special to the Kansan
As Feb. 14 approaches, a small group of University of Kansas students will be reminded of the significance of their names.
Five students listed in the student directory share their last names with the namesake of the Valentine's Day holiday.
Joanna Valentine, Louisville, Colo.
senior, and Sara Valentine, Ottawa
freshman, get a lot of attention for
their names year round. But both said
the comments increased around
Valentine's Day.
"I get a lot of comments, but never anything negative," Joanna said. "People who show interest are always very nice."
She said most people told her she had a "meat name."
"Ive also had several people ask me if I plan on keeping my name when I get married," Joanna said.
Regardless of any positive or nega
tive attention she receives because of her name, Joanna said she had always liked Valentine's Day.
Sara had a slightly different view of the lovers' holiday.
"I don't really like Valentine's Day because it's overcommercialized," she said. "It's supposed to be a day to be with loved ones. Instead, it's become a day for candy and card companies, just like Halloween, Christmas and all the other holidays.
"I don't hate Valentine's Day. It's just kind of amoving." Sara said.
Sara said people commonly asked her if she was born on Valentine's Day. Although none of the student Valentines share a birthday with the holiday, Lezli Valentine, Wichita senior, said she had always seen
Lezli Valentine
Wichita senior
"My mom always used to tell me that it was my special day, so it was almost like my birthday.
She said that sharing a name with the holiday had contributed to her negative feelings about it and added that she has never met anyone outside her own family who shared her last name.
Valentine's Day as a second birthday of sorts.
People have been commenting on Lezli's name since she was a child, and they still say things now, she said.
"My mom always used to tell me that it was my special day, so it was almost like my birthday. I always wore red on Valentine's Day," Leli said.
A ntte girl told me my name was really cool," Lezli said. "Others have sarcastically asked me if I'd be their Valentine."
But she said that she didn't mind the extra attention and that she was a Valentine's Day fanatic.
"I love it," she said, "It's almost my
favorite holiday because it centers around love. My friends and I exchange Valentines with one another, and it has always been a very big deal in my family."
Lezli's brother, Scott Valentine, Wichita freshman, shared similar sentiments about the holiday.
"Valentine's Day is a great day," Scott said, although he added that it was more for people who weren't single.
Scott jokingly suggested that he might be able to use his name as aick-unline.
"I could tell girls that I'm the 'Love Doctor.' Scott said.
Many U.S. beds not seeing any action
Survey shows millions suffer sex dysfunction
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — For millions of Americans, sex ain't so hot.
A survey published in yesterday's Journal of the American Medical Association found that sexual dysfunction afflicts 43 percent of women and 31 percent of men. Problems included a lack of interest in sex and the inability to have an orgasm.
"I think it gives us a base for explaining why we had this enormous response to Viagra," said Edward Laumann, a University of Chicago sociologist and lead author of the study.
As grim as the survey's findings are, the results could offer hope to millions who think they're the only ones having trouble in bed, said Laumann. "Often they don't even admit it to their partners. It's the old I've got a headache" instead of "I don't feel like having sex." he said.
Laumann and his co-author, Ray
mond Rosen, had been paid by Pfizer Inc. to review clinical trial data on Viagra before the impotency drug was submitted for U.S. Food and Drug Administration approval.
That association was not mentioned by the Journal, but Phil Fontanarosa, a physician and Journal editor, said yesterday that the omission was an oversight and would be noted in a subsequent issue. Laumann said he had told JAMA editors about the relationship before the study was published.
The researchers said problems with sex are often coupled with everything from emotional and health problems to lack of time, job pressures and money trouble. But they said they aren't sure which comes first — stress or problems with sex.
The researchers based their findings on the 1992 National Health and Social Life Survey, a compilation of interviews with 1,749 women and 1,410 men.
The participants, ages 18 to 59, were asked if they had experienced sexual dysfunction in several months of the previous year.
Sexual dysfunction was defined as a regular lack of interest in or pain during sex or persistent problems achieving lubrication, an erection or orgasm.
Lack of interest was the most common problem for women, with about a third saying they regularly didn't want sex. Twenty-six percent said they regularly didn't have orgasms, and 23 percent said sex wasn't pleasurable.
About a third of men said they had persistent problems with climaxing too early, while 14 percent said they had no interest in sex and 8 percent said they consistently derived no pleasure from sex.
Overall, 43 percent of women and 31 percent of men said they had one or more persistent problems with sex. Researchers had expected the overall numbers to be closer to 20 percent for each sex.
Researchers said those in the survey who experienced sexual dysfunction were more likely to be unhappy and to describe their satisfaction with their partnerships as unsatisfactory. Laumann said.
Domenea Renshaw, a Chicago area sex therapist, said the results
were not surprising, considering the long list of couples waiting to get into the sexual dysfunction clinic she has run at the Loyola University Medical Center since 1972.
In that time, she treated nearly 140 couples who had never consumed their marriages, including a couple who had been wed for 23 years.
Rosen, co-director of the Center for Sexual and Marital Health at the Robert Wood Johnson Medical School in New Brunswick, N.J., said the survey provided much-needed information about women, who have often been excluded from studies about sexual performance.
He said the findings are the most comprehensive on sex since Dr. Alfred Kinsey did his landmark studies in 1948. Kinsey got similar results regarding impotence and failure to achieve orgasm but didn't ask about lack of sexual desire.
Too often, Rosen said, Americans have gotten their information about sex from magazines bought at the grocery-store checkout.
"As a scientist, it makes my hair stand on end," Rosen said. "It's terrible."
Rose prices can be thorn in students' wallets

can cost anywhere from $45
to as much as $90 this Valentine's Day.
Susan Engl is manager of Englewood Florist, 1101 Massachusetts St., where a dozen long-stemmed red roses arranged in a vase range from $70 to $90.
"The prices of roses do go up during Valentine's Day, but it's for a reason. Valentine's Day falls at a time when roses are out of season, and — along with the increase in demand — this causes the price of roses to rise for us as well as the consumer," she said. "Still some local shops charge significantly more for a dozen long-stemmed red roses then others."
"Our price for red roses hardly increases even though they're out of season," said Cyndi Browning, manager of the 23rd Street Dillons floral shop. "We sell only the highest grade of flowers just like the other flower shops in town. At $45.99 for a dozen long-stemmed red roses arranged in a vase. I feel we have a very competitive price."
Browning said that the grade of the flowers was not what drove up the prices because most florists in town carried the highest quality of flowers year round.
rose grower Jim Krone, executive vice president of the Roses Inc., said the reason some floral shops charge more than others is because they know they can charge more.
experience is not a price factor, either, because most of the flower arrangers working here have over 20 years of experience, and we have some of the lowest prices in town." Browning said.
"The demand for red roses is high right now, and everybody is in business to make a profit, and some just make more then others." Krone said.
Krone said that roses were grown 365 days a year, and while it took a little longer to grow them out of season, this did not affect the price very much.
Gabe Zeckser, Topea senior, said, "I always try to get roses for my girlfriend for Valentine's Day. It gets expensive, but what are you going to do about it?"
Krone said by doing a little shopping around students could find the best price for their money. He said good deals were still available if students looked for them, but those who waited until the last minute would probably pay more.

Commentary
Boyfriends, or lack of, bring competition among women
Valentine's Day is like a stiff drink of vodka. On one hand, it makes people feel warm and gleeful, yet on the other it makes them angry, spiteful, depressed and want to throw up.
It's a holiday that supposedly revolves around relationships between men and women, but let's be serious. Only women care about Valentine's Day. Therefore, once Feb. 14 rears its cold and judgmental head, no holds are barred between the two sects of women in this world: single and attached.
Single women resent women who have boyfriends, and women who have boyfriends resent feeling guilty about snagging one and reeling him in. Men resent spending money on a night not nearly as fun as if he were at The Outhouse with a bottle of bourbon.
Valentine's Day, like love in general, brings out the worst in women. Women around the country are made to feel insecure about their current dating status and in turn develop hatred for couples — or just men as a gender.
As a woman, there are rational rea sions to dislike men. Perhaps one is upset with the actions of the mala dominated U.S. military. Say a woman receives less pay than a male co-worker. Maybe someone has encountered a wife beater, a father who won't pay child support or a boyfriend who cheated on her with her best friend. In these situations, women have the green light to voice their disappointment or disgust. But what doesn't make sense is that
women cannot come together.
For every Gloria Steinem preaching the virtues of independence from men, there is a Monica Lewinsky laminating a stained dress. For every good woman who will accept nothing less than monogamy and respect, there is a floozy who just wants a one-night stand
We may work hard at our images, but like members of any group, we all are responsible for some slovenly
representatives.
The most disen-
chanting aspect is that for
women, the worst
specimens always get the most attention.
PENNAMON
Jenny Oakson
There was a time when I believed that men were the restrictive beings who held women back and that equality
was just a few rallies away, if not already achieved. I was young and foolish; I thought that Mad Dog was wine. The truth is, women are their own downfall.
We compete so zealously with each other for the attention of men that we could never converge into an army, if you will, to fight against them.
But we sure can fight each other. Maybe women don't drag race in Camaros or pick-em-up trucks. Maybe women don't punch each other out in the keg line, but I've seen some mean cat fights with hard hits.
Still, just because a woman doesn't scratch or claw, it doesn't mean that she isn't out for blood. A woman will wait for months to destroy a life from the inside track — after she's already forgiven a woman and they are friends again. With men, the one still standing is the winner. The bloodiest is the loser, and it's never spoken of again.
Am I suggesting that we all should have boycotted V-day? No, but I don't have any sympathy for the single whiners or weak dependents who stayed with their jerk boyfriends just to have one.
Valentine's Day is ideally a very romantic holiday to celebrate love and intimacy. Realistically, it's not that gigantic of a deal, and it adds more stress to the already cumbersome division of women.
As for men, Valentine's Day means living up to every romantic woman's expectations. Why should men be forced to express love on society's designated day? If a man has affection for a woman, he has it all year round.
One of the true joys of Valentine's Day was shared by single people, and that was the experience of surrounding yourself with friends and receiving the knowledge that love doesn't have to have a pretty face or throbbing biceps, but it looks like the people you hang out with.
Of course, another true joy is a dozen red roses — but they only last a week or so.

Mafia massacre was Chicago's Valentine's Day unsolved mystery
By Angela Cox Special to the Kansan
By Angela Cox
For most students, Valentine's Day is synonymous with love, happiness and a dozen red roses.
But in 1929, some people weren't feeling the love on Valentine's Day. Seven high-ranking mafia members were found dead in a North Chicago garage.
This murderous event is now referred to as the Valentine's Day Massacre, and it all began when the 18th Amendment officially banned the production, consumption and sale of alcohol in the U.S.
Bootlegging alcohol then became a lucrative, but deadly profession.
"I think that when the government did not follow public opinion or the interests that be, they entered into symbolic politics and didn't think of the problems in implementing or enforcing it," said Kara Lindaman, instructor in the political science department. "And when people can't find it through legal avenues, they turn to the black market," she said.
Two of the most infamous gangsters during the 1920's were Al "Scarface" Capone and George "Bugs" Moran, according to information at www.MysteryNet.com/vday.
The two men were major underworld competitors involved in bootlegging, gambling and prostitution in Chicago. Their rivalry may have triggered the events of the Valentine's Day Massacre.
massacre/
The Web site said that on the evening of Valentine's Day in 1929 a witness heard gun shots from the S.M.C. Cartage Co. garage. But seeing two police officers leading two other individuals away, she was pacified and did not call the police.
Strangely, the Chicago Police Department had no record of these activities until they discovered the seven bullet-filled men when they arrived later on the scene.
Six of the seven men were mobsters working under "Bugs" Moran. All were dead on the scene except for one, Frank Gusenburg, who was unconscious and near death.
At the hospital, the police waited for him to revive, hoping to get the identity of the killers. But when he did wake up right before he died, all he said was, "I'm not gonna talk."
With the last victim dead, the police had a greater mystery and more questions.
Why had the victims — mobsters with a large supply of weapons — laid aside those
weapons, turned their backs and faced the wall without any sign of a fight? Who were the eyewitness' police officers and the officers' hostages? And most importantly, who was behind it all?
The Chicago police speculated that the victims had been confronted by the police officers in what they had thought was a routine raid.
The police reconstructed a scenario in which the victims surrendered their weapons and lined up against the wall while the police officers called in their associates and executed the victims. The perpetrators walked away from the scene without hindrance because of their disguises.
Capone was the main suspect, and he claimed to be in Florida at the time of the killings. He had the most logical motive: getting rid of his rival's henchmen on his way up to Moran himself.
But Capone was never arrested for the crime, and the gun men were never identified. The crime is still unsolved, though many would love to know the truth.
"It would be interesting to discover who really was responsible for the killings, but most likely the truth will remain a mystery like the assassination of JFK," said Marie Dispenza, Lee's Summit freshman.

Love is in the air
Kansan critics set the mood for romance with their movie and music picks
2
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
On Valentine's day, resurrect those old CDs and prepare for a romantic night with the one you love.
These songs define romance. Some call them cheese. Some just call them very likely to be remade by Puff Daddy. I call it cheesy, future Puffy songs that you can't help but love.
One thing to remember is that not every love song will affect a couple in the same way. Below is a list of love types with appropriate song prescriptions.
When love is passionate
Sometimes passion can override rationality. The love between you and that special someone could make you change your major, hair color, or lifestyle.
Bands like Alias, Foreigner and Extreme understand you. They even took the risk of losing their small rock fan base to write love songs. I thank them for doing so.
More Than Words Can Say displays lyrics of longing with the instantly memorable hook, "I need you now, before I lose my mind," that affects even the hardest heart. More Than Words and I Wanna Know What Love Is typifies the struggle of first love; perfect for the passionate couple.
When love is a struggle
Love may be Jerry Springer material. Some songs fit the "i will accept you back for the nth time" theme.
Journey had both hard and soft radio hits, but the greatest of these was Open Arms. This is a classic slow dance song about a returning lover, timeless because of its universal theme and non-trendy structure. It's a shame pop culture-trendy Mariah Carey decided to annihilate it when she remade this song.
When love is established
Sometimes love endures and stays strong. These are songs for those who have forever in their grasp.
More successful veteran rockers Richard Marx and Bryan Adams have the magic formula for great love songs. Right Here Waiting rises above the rest because of its lyrical theme of enduring love that shines through the music. And Everything I Do replenishes the memory of that guy or girl across the gym you never asked to dance in middle school.
When love is sexy
Tom love may be based on a whim. The way your lips move may be the most important variable in your relationship.
In the song-from-big-movie genre, the unforgettable love anthem of a pilot and his instructor in Top Gun is perfect for sexy love. Take My Breath Away soared the charts in the '80s and became that year's most famous love song with it's endearing lyrics of a passionate kiss.
When love is deep
Some relationships are grounded in the soul. Sometimes the eyes are the gateway to the heart.
Even the adult contemporary market produced classics such as In Your Eyes. Peter Gabriel, a unique musician and writer, gives us a reason to listen to pop radio. Perhaps eyes are "a doorway to a thousand churches."
When love is innocent
The purest love is unconditional and the romance is so abundant. Some songs magnify these romantic moments.
The adult contemporary '90s suffer from a lack of heartfelt, meaningful love songs, but Sting proves he can keep the feeling alive. Fields of Gold paints a vibrant picture of a summer romance. Sting's unique percussion and song arrangement captures the heart and make it suitable for that romantic moment.
By Brendan Walsh
Kansan movie critic
For the couple or person who wants to stay in this Valentine's Day, selecting the right movie is essential. If you are looking to celebrate the romantic fervor, here are five suggestions:
Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961)
It's hard to find a list of best romance movies that doesn't include an Audrey Hepburn film, Hepburn's character, Holly Golightly, is blessed with a fitting fictitious name in Blake Edwards's adaptation of Truman Capote's novel.
Helen Gurley Brown couldn't have portrayed a New York City playgirl any more convincingly than Hepburn. Her beauty transcends the movie's age and carries a certain grace not found in the likes of Meg Ryan. Holly Golightly's eccentric worldiness is sexy to men and charming to women.
Some Kind of Wonderful (1987)
This movie stands out among the throngs of '80s high school movies. Every stereotypical high school personality is represented in this story of true love overcoming class differences. There's also a good subplot involving the separation between teen and parent that happens after graduation.
Some Kind of Wonderful is on the long list of semi-cultish movies written by John Hughes. That list includes Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Pretty In Pink, and Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, among others. Eric Stoltz's performance as Keith Nelson remains a classic.
Sav Anything (1989)
For college freshmen, video copies of Say Anything are about as ubiquitous as are lava lamps. While the movie is a near cliche among college students, it's still a great comedic love story.
Jonn Cusack plays the hopelessly romantic Lloyd Dobler, an in-with-the-out-crowd kind of guy who seduces the beautiful Diane Court, played by Ione Skye. He represents the man willing to go to any length for the sake of love, and is certain to make
The Incredibly True Adventure of Two Girls in Love (1995)
impressionable viewers swoon.
It's the typical story of a mismatched pair of lovers who are obviously meant for each other. However, the movie doesn't feel cloying and the unconventional obstacles that must be overcome make The Incredibly True Adventure a great Valentine's Day story for any couple.
The two leads, Laurel Holloman and Maggie Moore, were both newcomers to the big screen when the movie was made. One would never have guessed this by the actors' polished performances. Though Moore hasn't gone on to much else, Holloman was in *Boogie Nights* and *Prefontaine*.
There's Something About Mary (1998)
Hit the video store early if you don't want to be stuck with Air Bud; the video was released just a little while ago and is still in high demand. Putting the grotesque (yet effective) humor aside, the heart of There's Something About Mary is the love story of Ted and Mary.
The prolific Ben Stiller comes across as the perfect hero, and Cameron Diaz does a good job of looking great. Matt Dillon portrays Pat, Ted's rival for Mary's affection, and provides the archetypal villain in this blockbuster.
Love's not your thing? It wasn't too good in these movies, either.
Last Tango in Paris (1973)
A middle-aged Marlon Brando finds a French girl with big hair, who he subjects to endless monologues and an unconventional use of soft cheese.
Christian Slater has the heart of a baboon. Literally.
You've Got Mail (1998)
You've got Sleepless in Seattle II. The movie's tag line is "Someone you pass on the street may already be the love of your life." More likely is that the person you're typing to in an Internet chat room is someone you'd be wise to run away from on the street.

Relief follows wrap-up of trial
THE BUSH CENTER
Clinton: Acquitted in impeachment trial.
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Many KU students, faculty and staff breathed a sigh of relief — but not of surprise — Friday at the end of the impeachment trial of President Bill Clinton.
(USPS 650-640)
The U.S. Senate voted in bipartisan fashion Friday to acquit Clinton, the second president to be impeached, on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
Tesia Hostetler, Young Democrats member and Topeka senior, said she knew Clinton was going to be acquitted. She said she did not think that Clinton's actions merited impeachment.
"We did the whole run-around and it's finally over." Hostester said. "I'm happy that we can
finally move on with the business of running the nation."
She said lawmakers spent too much time debating Clinton's offenses and not enough time discussing issues such as Social Security reform and capitalizing on economic growth.
"It has lowered the level of political discourse," Hostetler said. "We're not talking about these issues because everything is scandal-oriented."
The Senate voted 55-45 against the first charge, perjury, with 10 Republicans joining all 45 Democrats voting not guilty.
40Democrats hold big胜利 The vote was 50-50 on the second charge, obstruction of justice, with five Republicans joining the Democrats.
After the verdict, Clinton said in a speech
from the Rose Garden that he was profoundly sorry for what he said and did in the Monica Lewinsky affair that sparked the impeachment trial, the first since Andrew Johnson was impeached in 1868.
"It was the right decision, but that does not mean that the whole process was justified," Levy said. "There is so much blame to go around for everyone that I don't want to give positive marks to anyone."

Presidents' Day crafted to recall leaders' legacies
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
If George Washington were alive today to celebrate his birthday, he would be 267 or 268 years old.
Under the Old Style calendar, he was born Feb. 11, 1731, but under the Gregorian calendar, which came into use during Washington's lifetime, he was born Feb. 22, 1732.
According to "The American Book of Days," the reason for the discrepancy traces back to the calendar under which Washington was born, the Old Style or the Julian calendar.
But today is neither Washington's birthday, nor is it Abraham Lincoln's birthday, which is Feb. 2, 1809 — despite the fact that their birthdays insured President's Day.
A law passed by Congress in 1968 was the cause for the shift in the days. The law changed the federal observance of certain holidays to Mondays.
"We used to have actual birthdays to celebrate — Washington's and Lincoln's — but people in America like to have three-day weekends," said Jonathan Earle, assistant professor of history.
He said that if he had his way, he would make it a holiday to celebrate the life of Abraham Lincoln.
"He was our greatest president," he said. "But Washington wasn't too shabby, either."
Buttle Tittle, professor of history, said that as a scholar, he was more interested in Abraham Lincoln's birthday and how Lincoln's work against
slavery was the reason for having African-American History Month in February.
Earle said Lincoln also had special meaning in Kansas.
Both pro-slavery and abolitionists wanted to lay claim to the state, he said.
"Abe thought a lot about Kansas," Earle said. "It was an important place, politically."
Not many KU students will have the opportunity to celebrate the holiday. They'll be in class.
Chancellor Robert Hemenay said he was not sure why the University of Kansas did not observe Presidents' Day.
"The schedule is suggested by governance and approved by the Board of Regents," he said. "Schedules are set up well in advance. As far as I know, it's never been an issue."
He said that if the University took Presidents' Day off, then the day would have to be made up some other time in the semester.
Alex Strahan, Lawrence senior, said it did not really matter to him that he would have to be in class today.
For President Bill Clinton, the day does not go without its obligations.
"If you want the day off, go work for the federal government," he said.
White House representatives were not available to comment on whether Clinton would attend the ceremony this year.
Traditionally, a wreath-laying ceremony at the Washington Monument is attended by either the President or a representative to commemorate the day.

Sick pilots leave plans for travel up in air
By T.J. Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Passengers who were trying to fly American Airlines during the weekend encountered cancellations, delays and other travel problems.
About one-fourth of American Airlines pilots called in sick last Friday to protest a dispute with airline management, causing about one-half of the airline's domestic flights to be canceled.
Cancellations were less prevalent Saturday and yesterday, but many travel plans were still being disrupted.
Adrienne Goodwin, Prairie Village senior, said her friend's flight from Chicago to Kansas City, Mo., yesterday was changed from American Airlines to a standby spot on United Airlines because the flight had been canceled. This meant that she probably wouldn't return to Kansas City until last night.
Goodwin said that her friend needed to be back in town to start a new job today and that the delay could cause problems for her.
Karen Isley, Toledo senior, said that her sister had been moved Friday from an American Airlines flight to a United Airlines flight while flying to Kansas City from Cincinnati through Chicago. The switch had caused a four-hour delay for her sister, but no major disruptions for her travel schedule.
Some Reno Air pilots had been paid only half of what their counterparts at American were paid — leading to concerns that lower-paid pilots could take their jobs or flight assignments. American pilots want the Reno Air pilots added to the higher pay scale quickly.
Although American pilots were barred from striking about the issue, they were allowed to call in sick if they felt that they were under emotional stress that could have made it difficult for them to fly safely.
On Saturday, federal district judge Joe Kendall held the Allied Pilots Association union and two of its leaders in contempt for not doing enough to get the pilots working again. He threatened to fine them about $10 million.
More than 5,000 flights had been canceled since last week, leaving nearly half a million passengers stranded. The canceled flights cost American between $67 and $90 million.
Kendall said in his ruling that "No one can make someone go fly an airplane if someone is dishonest and willing to lie and say they are sick when they really aren't."
"but what a federal judge can do — and what I will do — is make people pay for what they break." Kendall said.
American officials were confident that the airline's services would be back to normal soon.
Officials at Kansas City International airport could not comment on the situation,but said that there had been some cancellations at the airport this week.
University, city discuss public transportation system
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
KU students and community members reached a consensus about the need for a public transportation system in Lawrence at a public forum Saturday.
About 50 people met at the Lawrence Public Library, including student senators, Student Legislative Awareness Board representatives and city commission candidates. They discussed options for implementing a public bus system at a forum sponsored by the Citizens for Public Transportation.
was not much dissent on the need for a public bus system. But, she said, people disagreed on who would pay for it and where the routes would go.
Erin Simpson, resident director of SLAB and Lenexa Junior, said there
"Most people see a need, but the solution is elusive." Simpson said.
She said cost and student control were the biggest issues.
Simpson said that there was not a specific plan, but that she hoped a plan would surface after the city commission elections in April.
The specifics would depend on how much money the state legislature allocated for public transportation and how responsive the city commission was to the issue, she said.
Simpson said the KU on Wheels bus system no longer was sufficient because of the city's growth and students' changing needs. She said distance, location and time were key issues in the need for a bus system that would serve the entire city.
"It is becoming increasingly difficult for us to survive," she said. "Nights and weekends are almost non-existent."
Tom Moore, SLAB campus director and Lawrence senior, said he wanted to get a commitment from city officials that public transportation would be one of their budgeting priorities after the April elections.
A fully integrated system would

Wheels, a city-run bus system and a joint system between the University and the city.
The task force has been discussing options for public transportation, including the expansion of KU on
Wayne Popp, owner of the Lawrence Bus Company, said earlier this year that if the demand arose, he would expand the bus routes to cater to all of Lawrence instead of just KU students.
Moore said that because of the age of the buses, the number of hours they run and the Lawrence Bus Company's revenue, the KU on Wheels expansion would not be as efficient as a full-fledged public bus system.
"Students would want a fully integrated public transportation system because of its advantages over a KU on Wheels expansion," he said.
Moore said the obstacle in the way of implementing a joint system was a legal statute disallowing the use of student fees for programs that serve non-students. He said SLAB was in the process of discussing the issue with the administration and state officials.

Group assists victims by dishing up awareness
Latin American Solidarity will serve rice and beans at 6:00 p.m. tomorrow at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries building for the benefit of Brazilian earthquake victims.
After the meal, KU students from Colombia will lead an open discussion about problems in their country.
"Things are still fairly bad, as far as reconstruction work goes," said Megan Hope, Garden City graduate student and president of LAS.
Hope said the cost for the relief effort was estimated at $500 million.
The event is free, although any donations will be used to help the hundreds of thousands of Colombians left injured and homeless by last month's earthquake in Armenia, Hope said.
Donations also can be made to an earth relief fund maintained by LAS
earthquake relief fund maintained by LAS Funds will be channeled through the Colombian Support Network, the Colombian Embassy in Washington and other Colombian organizations, Hope said.
She said donations had not been forthcoming — LAS only had taken in about $100.
Panel to discuss shades standards of beauty
"It's been really, really slow," Hope said. Checks can be made out to "KU Earthquake Relief" and mailed or hand-delivered to the Center for Latin American Studies, 107 Lippincott, Lawrence, KS, 60454.
A panel of African-American KU students will explore the relationship between standards of beauty and shades of color at 7 p.m. tonight in the Daisy Hill Room at the Burge Union .
"Our panel is composed of students representing different hues, but who are all beautiful," said Tamara Lewis, assistant director at the Office of Minority Affairs.
Lewis said African-American standards of beauty were sometimes influenced by European standards, which favor lighter skin tones rather than darker tones.
But history, family, environmental factors and the media also affect a person's perception of what is beautiful, she said.
The forum, "Shades of You," is a Black History Month event sponsored by the Office of Minority Affairs and the Black Student Union.

The man had been asked to leave the bar, but refused. When police attempted to escort him out, he looked as though he would hit the officer, who then arrested him, the report said.

Computer glitch makes personal cards public
We regret to inform you that many of the silly, sappy and sometimes obscene sentiments you added to the cards were not private. Anyone — from your teen-age son to your lover's spouse — may have surfed through your sweet nothings on the Web. That's the embarrassing result of a computer glitch discovered by The Kansas City Star.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A word of warning to "Pooh Bear," "Schnookums," "Sexy Lady" and other incurable romantics who have sent electronic greeting cards via Hallmark Cards' Internet site.
A search page at www.hallmark.com made untold numbers of e-mail Valentine's and birthday cards accessible to millions of strangers. All an interoper needed was a personal computer and a prudent interest.
The lack of security surprised customers and executives at the Kansas City-based greeting-card company, which scrambled this week to modify the site's computer program. A Hallmark official stressed that the problem involved only greetings sent a year or more ago.
Hallmark has been promoting its rapidly growing Web site as the premier supplier of the next generation of greeting cards. The site logs millions of visits each week. And Hallmark recently said it expected a leap in Valentine's Day purchases to "steam up the wires."
Its Web page offers more than 1,500 electronic greetings, for which Hallmark charges up to $2.50 each.

said Sunday.
Democrats and Republicans alike predicted a terrific race if she stepped in.
A number of people "have been really urging her to run, and I think she wants to hear them out," White House Chief of Staff John Podesta said on ABC's This Week.
"There are a lot of people in New York who think she would be a great senator and are very excited about the prospect that she would represent them," said White House communications director Ann Lewis on CNN's Late Edition. "I do think she would win," she said.
Talk has been circulating for several months of prospects that Clinton would run for the seat to be vacated when Democratic Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan leaves the Senate in 2000 after 24 years in office.

"It would be an incredible race," said Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., of a possible match-up with New York's Republican Mayor Rudy Gluiani. "One thing I know about Rudy Gluiani, he'll tangle with anybody," McCain said on NBC.

Acquittal vote shocks no one, but comes as relief to many
Continued from page 1A
Sarah Pugh, KU Libertarians member and Omaha junior, said that Clinton's acquittal was in line with the libertarian perspective.
"Libertarians value economic and individual freedom," she said. "They should not have started the investigation to begin with. They went too far into his personal life."
The conclusion of the Senate trial, which began Jan. 7, marked the second consecutive major legal and political victory for Clinton since the dismissal of Paula Jones' sexual harassment lawsuit.
But Clinton still faces the threat of an indictment from Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr either before or after he leaves office.
Burdett Loomis, professor of political science, said that he had predicted Clinton's acquittal and that the trial should never have proceeded in the first place because the charges were not impeachable offenses. But the trial proved that the constitutional system works, he said.
"The people were ahead of the elites the whole time in reaching a reasonably sophisticated judgment. The president did behave abominally, and the first line of his obituary was essentially written," Loomis said. "Nothing, absent a war, can change this. We'll be talking about this for a long time."
He agreed with lawmakers in Washington, D.C., who predicted that the Independent Counsel Act, which provided the framework for Starr's investigation, either would not be renewed or would be modified after it expires in June.
Loomis said he thought the legal decisions made during the trial would also have other ramifications. He said lawmakers would not use impeachment for partisan purposes again in the near future.
He also said that Congress may decide that a sitting president could not be charged in a civil case and that Congress may clarify the nature of lawyer-client privileges and executive privilege in the White House.
"We got through a painful time with at least an amount of dignity," he said. "We can have a greater appreciation for the Constitution. We have had a civics lesson over the last 16 months."
Mitchell Bowles, Las Vegas junior, said he agreed with the Senate's decision.
"Clinton's private life is his private life," he said. "It's between him and his wife."
Joanna Wade, Wamego sophomore, said she thought Clinton's acquittal set separate standards for the president.
"They should have booted him," she said.
"The nation's laws should apply to everybody."

KU student hits successful chord with orchestral piece
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
While other students used slides, charts and long words to present their projects, Todd Hershberger used a tape player.
At Saturday's undergraduate research symposium, Hershberger explained the methods that he used to compose *Waterborne Aires*, an orchestral piece performed at the Lied Center in November.
Hershberger, Newton senior, said he drew upon images of water to create the work. The four sections of the piece are inspired by rain, rivers, the ocean and the deep sea.
"Because texture is an important component, imagery was important," he said. "With an orchestra you have at your disposal a large number of atmospheres."
Although he spent more than 500 hours composing the five-minute piece, Hershberger does not expect a large monetary return.
"Right now I'm using it as a resume and a competition piece," he said. "I'm not really looking to benefit financially."
Hershberger, who plays both bassoon and piano, already has had five of his works performed, including a piece for solo flute, two woodwind quintet pieces, a suite of piano pieces and the orchestra piece Waterborne Aires.
Contours of a Machine — one of his woodwind quintet pieces — made its premiere at the Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art on Friday.
"It's very lively," he said, describing the piece. "It's machine music but like there is machine art."
Levine, who plays French horn in the group, has played both of Hershberger's pieces for quintet.
"He's a very talented composer," he said. "He has interesting ideas and they communicate themselves well."
Hershberger also has composed a choir piece that will be preformed at 7:30 p.m. May 9 at the First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway.
Hershberger said he had created compositions to
I am a man of many lives. I have been the head of the college, the president of our school and the executive director of our organization. I love my family and friends and I enjoy every moment of life. I am a very humble person and I am grateful for all that you have given to me. I am also a woman and I am proud of my achievements. I am confident in myself and I am happy to be here with you.
Todd Hershberger, Newton senior, discusses an orchestral piece he wrote. He presented the piece at the undergraduate research symposium in the Kansas Union Saturday afternoon. Hershberger, who is majoring in music theory and composition, has written several other pieces, including pieces for the flute, woodwinds, piano and choir. Photo by Jeff Severin/KANSAN
some degree or another since he was four years old, when he began piano lessons.
He said concepts for his music could arrive at any time and any place.
"Ideas come when I'm trying to get to sleep," he said. "A majority of what a composer does is mental. You have to imagine."
Hershberger is majoring in music theory and composition. He said he probably would continue to compose while he taught music somewhere.
"For a steady paycheck, you teach," he said.
Although Hershberger named Claude Debussy as a major influence, his musical taste is not limited to the classical genre.
"I've always had a healthy mix of jazz, pop and classical," he said. "I don't ignore any of it in my music."
Symposium showcases research
Students' projects show eclectic tastes
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
While some KU students slept in Saturday morning, others presented their research projects at the Kansas Union during the Second Annual Undergraduate Research Symposium.
From 9 a.m until 3:30 p.m., students introduced the latest developments in fields such as DNA and Dr. Zhivago to their peers and professors.
Anna VanCleave, Overland Park senior, who has been involved in the symposium the past two years, said things went more smoothly and were better-organized this year. About 120 people attended the event.
"I think we had a better idea of what we were doing," she said. "I think it went really, really well."
Cress Wakefield, Wichita senior, said she hoped everyone had understood her project. Wakefield created a poster about the effects of light on the perception of space in architecture.
Despite the fact that most of the
projects were scientifically based, Wakefield said she learned a lot from the other presenters' research.
Although one-fourth of the projects were about physics or chemistry, there were also projects dealing with political science, psychology, sculpture and Slavic literature.
After the presentations, there was a banquet for the researchers. Richard Schowen, professor of molecular and biosciences, gave a speech, "How to Breed Scientists in Captivity."
"This is the first time we've presented, and I'll be doing this for the next 30 years," he said.
Paul Hanson, assistant professor of chemistry, had five students participate at the symposium.
Otherwise, he said, you may find restrictions placed on your intellectual freedom and on research you want to conduct.
In it, he suggested that researchers carefully examine potential employers.
Alongside the new research, a new undergraduate journal, Luminary, was unveiled.
"Align yourself with an institution whose aims resemble your own." he said.
"We're providing experience in the publication process whereas the symposium is providing experience in the presentation process." Larsen said.
magazine, said Luminary and the symposium went hand-in-hand.
Larsen said Luminary would be published annually at the symposium. Because papers take a few months to prepare for publishing, submissions should be sent in by November or December 1999.
Soren Larsen, the founder of the
Applications for summer Undergraduate Research Awards, which financed many of the projects at the symposium, are due March 15. Barbara Schowen, director of the Honors Program, said 60 $1,000 awards were available.
Research papers, fiction and exploratory non-fiction, which Larsen described as more interpretive and creative than regular non-fiction, would be accepted.
All of the award winners will be invited to present their results at next year's symposium. Applications are available at the Nunemaker Center or the Honors Program Web site: www.ukans.edu/honors
Schowen said applications to participate in next year's symposium would be due near the end of October 1999.

Editorial
Increase in organ donations hinges too heavily on celebrities' needs
There has been a sudden interest in organ donation that wasn't sparked by the publicity of Saturday's National Organ Donor Day. The interest instead followed the Feb. 2 announcement by Chicago Bears Hall of Famer Walter Payton that he is in need of a liver transplant.
The surge to become organ donors is something this country always has needed, but it shouldn't have taken a celebrity in need for potential donors to sign on the dotted line.
This has happened before. In 1995, former baseball great Mickey Mantle needed a liver transplant as well, and hospitals saw their requests for organ donor cards shoot up. Organ donation offers at the Southwest Organ Bank in Dallas, which supplied Mantle's liver, jumped from 15 to more than 700.
A study released in June found that in 37 percent of cases where organ donation could save a life, families refused to give consent.
Like Mantle's case, Payton's again
Transplants are needed year-round not only when star athletes require them.
has made it safe to assume that a percentage of those who refused to donate probably would if someone important were involved. Perhaps if someone such as Payton were to receive the organ, they would consent.
Even without an awareness day and a sports legend in need, there already is publicity surrounding organ donation.
Organizations such as the Coalition on Donation, a nonprofit alliance of local coalitions and national organizations, promote organ and tissue donation yearround.
Plot lines of popular television dramas such as ER and NYPD Blue have featured organ donations, and characters who do not donate are portrayed as being ignorant and selfish.
The information is out there.
Organ donation is a selfless and gracious act, and anything that can prompt more people to fill out donor cards is a good thing.
An estimated 12,000 to 15,000 deaths each year could result in organ donation, but in 1997 only 5,475 provided donations. This sort of statistic must end.
A person can become a donor simply by filling out a card when they receive their drivers license.
People should fill out donor card all year long. A celebrity should not have to require a transplant before the public shows an interest. When the public heard about Payton's situation, there were reportedly hundreds of people who called and volunteered to donate their liver. Of course, these people then found out that a liver is necessary to live.
People should want to save the lives of others, regardless of whether the organ recipient can hit a baseball or run with a football.
As Mantle said to a crowd shortly before his death, "If you want to do something great, be a donor."

Feedback
Keeping polling site not only solution
After spending time in other countries and cultures, I have become more aware and, hence, more irritated at the propensity many in this country have for whining. This type of whininess has been illustrated several times in the Kansan in recent weeks, for example, the column by Diana Victor in which she wrote about being stopped by the police for driving at night with
her headlights off, and more recently the reaction to the closing of the Allen Fieldhouse polling site.
Were there not voting alternatives to Allen Fieldhouse, I also would protest its closing, but the fact is there is another polling site close by: Schwegler Elementary School at 2201 Ousdahl Road.
Rather than advocating to keep the Allen Fieldhouse site open, perhaps the Student Legislative Awareness Board could organize and offer transportation for those needing help getting to polling sites off campus. As it was said by one of SLAB's members, "Where there's a will, there's a way."
After seeing people walk for miles to polling sites in Latin America, it seems pretty lame that students can't make a little effort to go a short distance to vote off campus. But unfortunately, we Americans have been conditioned to expect everything to be convenient.

The United States is approaching technolog-
Perspective
The United States is appraisal as it nears the 20th century. Although I use computers and enjoy them to a point, enough is enough.
Computer addicts risk severing link to reality
If I hear the phrase "information super highway" one more time, I'm going to scream.
Companies are racing to provide access to the Internet and are selling new interactive products as quickly as engineers can invent them. Words such as "e-mail," "modem" and "server" are no longer used exclusively by computer enthusiasts but by blue-haired old ladies. The world is changing.
It's not changing for the better.
As more information and entertainment is offered via computers, fewer people actively seek to enhance or broaden their lives. Those of all ages sit transfixed by computer screens with blank expressions plastered on their faces.
Businesses are quickly jumping on the bandwagon. On Feb. 1 AT&T and Time Warner announced plans to offer a comprehensive package of telecommunications. Internet, telephone and other entertainment options would be available through a single service brought into the home by cable (rather than telephone wire).
It sounds like a great idea — at first.
Making the telecommunications revolution convenient is helpful to consumers, right? Perhaps in the short term. But as computers become easier and easier to use, more and more people make the machine their purpose in life.
Computers offer people the chance exit their dull "real" lives and enter exciting "virtual" existences. Socialization is difficult for many. It takes effort to introduce oneself to others, smile happily and make small talk. Relating to the world is nerve-wracking.
How simple it is to sit at a computer screen and type e-mail messages to an anonymous name somewhere in the electronic abyss. One doesn't have to relate to body language or facial expressions. One just has to read.
The "information superhighway" hasn't become the tool for research and discovery that its proponents expected. Instead, it has become a hiding place where people erect entire worlds for themselves that they — and

only they control.
I'm not pointing fingers at anyone. I'm guilty. I have my list of favorite Web sites and message boards. I spend at least a couple of hours a day staring at my computer screen and a couple of other hours staring at the television. It alarms me. There are times when I prefer the world that I've created.
Do we ignore these people because they aren't "online?" Do we ignore racism, drug addiction and poverty because they don't have Web sites?
Computers can be replaced. People can't.
Computers can be replaced. People can t. The irony of the 1990s is that technology designed to link people together has isolated them more than ever. Why talk with neighbors when more interesting people are online? Why waste time at a music store poring over stacks of CDs when you can visit a Web site and order music in minutes? Why bother to date when you can screen candidates in a chat room?
As I was finishing this column, something interesting happened. For about two hours on Feb. 3 the KU Internet provider was shut down. During that short time, the "information superhighway" was closed.
It is tedious to talk with the neighbors. It is dull to wade through piles of CDs. Dating can be embarrassing. But these are experiences. These are instances of reaching out and interacting with actual people - not Web sites.
People were angry. As I walked around campus, I saw scowls and heared curses. Students and teachers wanted their access and wouldn't take any excuses. This was serious business.
The Internet wasn't down forever. It was only two hours. Suddenly though, people were forced to interact in unusual ways. They couldn't just send an e-mail. Perhaps they had to visit an office or leave a message in person. The worlds that Internet users on campus had created for themselves vanished.
It wasn't a pleasant experience for anyone—myself included. But it made me think. How much have I given up for all my time in cyberland? How much has everyone given up?
Life can't be spoon fed. It can't be encapsu lated online. It must be lived.

initiative called Proposition 209.
Leftist reactions on the campus were split. Michael Rogin, a political science professor at UC-Berkley, argued last May in Black Issues in Higher Education that the initiative was deceptively worded, even though it was modeled after the language in the 1964 Civil Rights Act. Elizabeth Wilcox, an admissions officer at UC-Berkley, said that she and her fellow gatekeepers used a lot of creativity and initiative when judging applicants while still conforming to the letter of the law.
But the biggest chunk simply picked up their toys and stomped home.
Dana Inman, who was director of UC-Berkeley's Black Recruitment and Retention Center when the initiative passed, said last May in The New York Times that she told prospective African American applicants UC-Berkeley was a very hostile environment and that they were not welcome there. Grace Carrol Massey was also a little down on her job as director of Black student development. She simply told students to go to Stanford
The latest batch of crybabies emerged from U.S. District Court in San Francisco last week, when five civil rights organizations filed a lawsuit against UC-Berkeley on behalf of 750 rejected minority students with 4.0 high school GPAs.
According to the Feb. 3 New York Times, the lawsuit did not directly challenge the already court-tested and-approved Proposition 209. Instead, the suit alleged an unjustified reliance on standardized test scores and advanced placement classes. With the SAT being nothing more than a one-time
indicator of how well a student did on a test, and AP classes being scarec at most inner-city schools with high minority populations. Berkeley's standards were deemed discriminatory by the plaintiffs.
Standards are certainly high: The New York Times reported that the average freshman received a 1390 on the SAT and had a high school grade average of 4.27 on a five-point scale. But are the standards really unfair? On this note, a few points must be made.
First, even under the adjusted criteria that the lawsuit advocates, there is no assurance that many more minority students would have been admitted. Less than 11percent of "A" students denied admission were minorities.
Second, the SAT is an objective test that tends to predict student performance in college better than subjective measures like grades, interviews or recommendations. Also, it makes little sense to criticize the SAT for only measuring test-taking ability on a given day. This is also the primary measuring tool used in college.
Although it may be disguised, this lawsuit is really an attack on an idea of merit, seeking to replace it with diversity. Unfortunately, it comes at the expense of African Americans and other minorities making true gains in U.S. society. The attitude held by Inman and Massey — that the end of preferential treatment means that the school is suddenly hostile to minorities and doesn't allow them to succeed — is surely destructive. Preferences become something required for success.
Finally, if certain high schools fail to offer AP classes, why should a university trying to encourage gifted students to challenge themselves be blamed?
Still, it is hard not to agree with Jesus Rios, a plaintiff in the case and the son of immigrant farm workers, when he told the Times, "I thought if you do the right things, you get what you want."
The elementary and secondary schools that were supposed to prepare the plaintiffs are responsible for this tragedy, not UC-Berkeley. Efforts should be concentrated on those preparatory institutions.
As for racial diversity, an encouraging statistic has emerged among the discouraging drop in minority enrollment this fall.
The number of students who chose not to indicate their ethnicity rose 300 percent from the year before — good news in a society aspiring to colorblindness.

KU greeks asked to give $5 to help Habitat for Humanity
By Amber Stuever Special to the Kansan
In an attempt to raise $25,000 for Habitat for Humanity, KU's greek members are digging into their pocketbooks for the February Five Drive.
The House That Greeks Built, the organization that is sponsoring the drive and the Habitat for Humanity project, asked for $5 from about 5,000 Greek members on campus. The organization wants to collect the money before the end of February.
"We're hoping for 100 percent participation," said Sarah Heimovics, Panhellenic Association's vice president for philanthropy and community service. "We know that's not realistic, but that what we're hoping for. With that kind of support from the students themselves, there's no way we can fail."
Heimovics began The House That Greeks Built last fall, and the group has set a goal to raise $40,000 by this fall. They hope to begin building the house next fall using student labor.
Through the Lawrence chapter of Habitat for Humanity, a family will be chosen to receive the house. The family will be required to work 375 hours in sweat on its house or another Habitat house. The family also will pay for the house with a no-interest loan.
"It's not a hand-out; it's a help up." Heimovics said.
Linda Klinker, program director for Lawrence Habitat for Humanity, said that her group would help with the project, but that The House That Greeks Built was doing the work to raise the money and build the home.
"Mainly this is a great, great opportunity for the greeks to show what they can do." Klinker said.
humovies copied the idea for the House That Greeks Built from Shawnee Mission East High School's project The House That East Built, and introduced it at the University last fall.
Since then, plans for The House That Greeks Built have expanded. Last fall's efforts included a garage sale, a benefit concert at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.,
and an all-night bowl-a-thon. Together, the events raised about $8,000.
The group also has asked for corporate donations.
It is having the Five Drive because it wants to show student support for the project. Once donations from the drive are totaled, The House That Greeks Built hopes to raise a matching grant to cover the remaining funds. The group has not decided what group to contact about the grant.
All those who donate $5 will have the opportunity to help build the house next fall.
The group hopes to erect the house in about three weeks, starting on the United Way's Day of Caring in late September or October.
Several sororities and fraternities have committed all of their members to the $5 donation. Kappa Delta sorority was the first chapter to present Heimovics with a check for more than $700 from its members. Kappa Alpha Theta sorority has decided to give the money from its spring philanthropy to the project.
ACS to get new director next semester
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
Academic Computing Services at the University of Kansas will have a new director at the beginning of the next semester.
Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor and director for Academic Computing Services, officially will step down at the end of June. He will remain at the University on a year-to-year basis as assistant vice chancellor.
Catherine Smith, who started as deputy director for ACS Jan. 25, will begin as director when Niebaum leaves the position.
Smith could not be reached for comment.
Niebaum said the ACS staff was happy that Smith had decided to come to the University.
Karen Henry, publications director for ACS, said that although she
had not been on the search committee responsible for hiring Smith, she had met Smith during a group interview.
"She has great people skills," Henry said.
Bill Crowe, vice chancellor of information services and dean of libraries, said he also was enthusiastic that Smith was at the University.
"We're very lucky to get Cathy," Crowe said. "She has just the right mix of knowledge and excitement."
He said Smith came to KU because she liked what the University was doing with technology and education.
Smith has served as director of Academic Computing and Networking Services at Carleton College in Northfield, Minn., since 1993. She also has worked at Indiana University and Stanford University.
After Niebaum retires from Acad
emic Computing Services, he will work with Crowe at the Spencer Research Library on digital library initiatives.
Crowe, who will become the Spencer librarian July 1, said he and Niebaum would begin implementing new library software during the summer. The software, Endeavor, has imaging capabilities that will allow them to put images of Spencer's materials on the World Wide Web. They want to link those images to the online catalog and make it easier for Web users to find items on KU's library sites.
"The heart of librarianship is providing access to information," said Crowe.
"Jerry's agreed to stay at KU on a year-to-year basis," Crowe said. "I'd like him to stay as long as he wants."
Crowe also said he was glad to have Niebaum's help on the project.

Iraq hints at attack on allied targets
The Associated Press
BAGHDAD, Iraq — The Iraqi government said Sunday it could attack American and British bases in the Persian Gulf that are used to launch airstrikes against Iraq.
"We, by help from God and support from the sons of our glorious Arab nation, including true and sincere nationalists ... in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait, have the ability to attack the soldiers and means of aggression from whatever region," Iraqi television said, quoting a statement from President Saddam Hussein and senior leaders.
The statement came amid a simmering war of nerves with the United States and Britain over "nofly" zones imposed in northern and southern Iraq. Iraq does not recognize the zones and has vowed to fire at any plane that violates its airspace.
The zones were set up by the Unite States, Britain and France after the 1991 Persian Gulf War to prevent the Iraqi air force from attacking rebel in the north and south.
The United States has accused Iraq of more than 90 violations of the nc zones since mid-December. It sah U.S. and British forces have retaliated by attacking more than 40 Iraq targets.
The statement did not specify what type of action Iraq would take against the U.S. and British bases.
Both Kuwait and Saudi Arabia have opened their air bases to U.S. and British planes that patrol the u.n. fly zones.
Gun makers found guilty
Verdict could trigger increase in lawsuits
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — A Brooklyn jury's unprecedented verdict finding gun makers liable for shootings could give a boost to other cities around the nation that are suing the industry.
Other cities are going to have it a whole lot easier now, said David Yasky, a Brooklyn Law School professor who closely followed the trial.
"They have a very solid precedent that what the gun industry does is negligent," he said.
Chicago, New Orleans, Bridgeport, Conn., and Miami-Dade County are suing the industry to recoup the costs of fighting gun violence. Los Angeles, Philadelphia and Baltimore are among those considering the move.
Mayor Richard M. Daley of
Chicago said the Brooklyn verdict demonstrated that people were demanding that the gun industry be held accountable. Miami-Dade County Mayor Alex Penelas hailed it as a major victory with major ramifications.
Others argued that Thursday's verdict proved an awkward outcome to an awkward case, making its impact uncertain.
Dave Kopel of the Independence Institute, a conservative think tank in Golden, Colo., said the jury had been asked to fix a social problem by blaming gun makers for illegal use of legal products — despite little or no evidence that those manufacturers' brands were involved in any of the shootings at issue.
"This is a compromise verdict that makes no sense at all," said Kopel, who is also an adjunct law professor at New York University Law School. "The jury didn't know the first thing about what was going on."
The verdict came after a month-long trial in federal court.

Self scores with abstract debut
Bv Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
Self's Subliminal Plastic Motives creates its own classification with a hodgepodge of musical genres. The album takes a progressive stance, which will appeal to eclectic music lovers.
Matt Mahaffrey, the brain behind Self, is a musical genius. He produces local artists in Tennessee that range from hip-hop to rock. After listening to this debut effort, I knew there was nothing better.
Some call the music trip-hop/rock. I call it abstract rock. The Lazer has been playing two singles from the album, Cannon and So Low.

Sappy love blasts movie's potential
By Steph Brewer
Associate features editor
Blast from the Past starts off as a witty satire of the Red Scare, but later degenerates into a stereotypical, savvy romance.
Had director Hugh Wilson concentrated on the Webber family's subterranean existence in a fallout shelter, the movie could have been a gem. With the addition of a sappy romance between Adam Webber (Brendan Fraser) and Eve (Alicia Silverstone) the movie is, at best, a semi-precious stone.
The first part of the film is priceless, focusing on the Webber household: a somewhat mad scientist (Christopher Walken), his closet-alcoholic wife (Sissy Spacek), and their innocent son (Fraser).
When a plane crashes into the Webber home in 1962, Mr. Webber mistakes it for a Russian bomb and locks himself and his pregnant wife into the elaborate fallout shelter underneath their California home.
Mr. Webber delights in his ingenious escape from destruction. His wife, on the other hand, longs for a normal life and drowses her sorrows in cooking sherry.
The movie loses its originality when the Webbers surface to witness the "ruins" of earth. Adam stays to hunt down supplies and a healthy
BLAST FROM THE PAST
Rating: B
female to bring to the shelter.
In his pursuit of money and a Holiday Inn, Adam becomes entangled with Eve. Silverstone tries her hardest to pull off a portrayal of a jaded L.A. playgirl, but only succeeds in maintaining perfect hair throughout the entire film.
Eve's initial rejection of Adam doesn't faze him — little does. Instead, he continues on his merry way wowing Eve and her roommate Troy (Dave Foley) with his bevy of random skills.
Fraser's wide-eyed portrayal of Adam saves the comedy from sinking too low, but Silverstone does her pouty best to make the movie another fluffy waste to throw to the junior high set.
The pinnacle of cheese comes during a scene where Eve, having realized her love for Adam, finds him near the seedy bar that was built above his home. The camera slows as Eve runs towards Adam with open arms. It's oddly reminiscent of one of those commercials that takes place in a field of flowers. Rejoice in the freshness!
Unfortunately, this love story is anything but fresh and almost ruins an otherwise good movie.

Some economists warn that the overbuilding in other parts of Lawrence may hurt downtown retailers.
KU professor warns that unchecked retail development in Lawrence will deteriorate downtown businesses story by nadia mustafa photos by augustus anthony piazza
Commercial zoning in West Lawrence continues with the recent addition of this shopping mall located at Sixth Street and Wakara Drive.
Maude Beswick misses the traffic that used to pass through the retail outlet she has worked at for two years.
"Sales have dramatically decreased over the past two years," said Beswick, West Palm Beach, Fla., junior, who works at the Bass Outlet in the Riverfront Plaza. "We used to be a huge volume store, but last year's sales were mediocre, and this year's sales are only half that. Things have really gone downhill."
The deteriorating situation in the Riverfront Plaza is not unique. Lifeless strip malls and pothole-laden parking lots may become the fate of other areas of Lawrence, including 23rd Street, if the city continues to allow commercial development at a rate that exceeds consumer spending, said Kirk McClure, associate professor of architecture and urban design.
Although most city officials disagree, McClure predicts that Lawrence is riding on the coattails of a national overbuilding trend that lets retailers and excess strip malls steal a disproportionate amount of consumer dollars. This could cause older businesses to fail and commercial property to deteriorate.
"People think 23rd Street is ugly now," said McClure, who released a study this summer about the dangers of rapid commercial development in Lawrence. "Just wait until they see it with potholes and deteriorating storefronts."
The "big box" retailers threatening smaller Lawrence businesses are well known to University students. They include stores on South Iowa Street such as Kohl's, 3240 Iowa St., Super-Target, 3201 Iowa St., JC Penney, 3311 Iowa St., Sears, 2727 Iowa St., and Martt, 3160 Iowa St.
McClure said that because consumers searched for convenience, product availability and lower prices, it was inevitable that larger discount stores such as SuperTarget, 3201 Iowa St., and Wal-Mart, 3300 Iowa St., would be the beneficiaries of the shift in consumer spending. But he said commercial strips and neighborhood centers such as the Mall Shopping Center, 711 West 23rd, and Tower Plaza on South Iowa Street should not be allowed to grow so rapidly that they damage the revenue earning capacity of existing shopping districts.
When asked about the dangers posed by commercial growth, several students said they were most concerned with preserving the vitality of downtown.
"My sense was that there was no demand for those extra strip malls." McClure said. "Now we're overbuilding in apparel and accessories."
"The atmosphere of Lawrence as a college town is due to its small businesses," said Brady Swenson, Topeka sophomore. "It's worth more to save that identity than to save a quarter on Kool-Aid."

But, McClure said that most downtown retailers have already hit rock bottom and that those businesses were now experiencing a commercial resurgence of a different type, such as the establishment of coffee shops, eateries and places of entertainment.
He said the first floor of Riverfront Plaza, which was originally built to help revitalize the downtown area, was now host to Sprint Telecenter, a minimum-wage telemarketing outfit. McClure said this was a sign of commercial failure.
David Longhurst, general manager of the Riverfront Plaza, and president of Downtown Lawrence Inc., 900 Massachusetts St., said he had no doubt that the city was overbuilt. He said the addition of other outlet malls, such as the Tanger Outlet Mall, 1035 North Third St., affected the Riverfront Plaza.
"The number of square feet of outlet space has expanded beyond what this region can support," Longhurst said. "The City Commission has been unable to say 'no.' So we decided to consolidate retail space into the plaza's top two floors and rent the bottom floor out to Sprint as office space."
McClure said he was more concerned with other areas of town such as Southern Hills Mall at 23rd and Louisiana streets, and the mall on the corner of 19th and Haskell streets that may soon be on the verge of commercial failure despite a booming economy.
"Low revenue generators are occupying space in those strip malls. The rent they pay is lower that what is needed to keep the buildings aflat, but some rent is better than none at all," he said. "It's hard to get the city to realize that this is happening even in good economic times."
"There is some shifting that we have to do, but we'll always have that neighborhood to serve certain products and services to," he said. "Location is still key."
Williams said that he felt the presence of new commercial development but that competition was something everyone wanted.
Sean Williams, owner of the 19th Street center strip mall that recently lost a major tenant, said the loss presented a short-term challenge.
"Lawrence has become much better by virtue of a growing number of option as it grows commercially," he said. "We have a lot of retail options, but I think the marketplace will catch
up in time."
Williams said that as a consumer, he was in favor of growth but that he did not want to see older businesses shut down.
"I like going to JC Penney's, but I also like going to Weaver's on Massachusetts Street." he said.
McClure said the city must weigh the immediate advantages of commercial development versus its long-term effects. As consumers do more shopping in South Lawrence, older businesses in other parts of town that are unable to compete slowly deteriorate and eventually shut down. The city loses property tax revenues and taxpayers end up footing the bill to repair unkept commercial space, McClure said.
Erv Hodges, city commissioner, said he was awaiting the market results of 100,000 square feet of recent commercial development on South Iowa Street, but he did not think that Lawrence was overbuilt.
McClure said that even though Lawrence was overextended in terms of retail space, its current commercial atmosphere was healthy. His study predicted that the level of consumer spending per square foot of retail space would stabilize, but at a low level. McClure said the city must watch signals to prevent overbuilding within the next few years and not allow more
"I regret that there is an assumption that we're overbuilt," Hodges said. "We cannot protect retailers. They must adapt to competition."
than 200,000 square feet of new commercial development each year.
McClure's study showed that South Iowa Street retailers drew $200 million in sales during 1997, almost as much as retailers on West 23rd Street and in downtown combined. South Iowa Street captured 32 percent of consumer dollars in 1997, while downtown received 18 percent and East 23rd Street collected only three percent.
The City Commission has been consistently pro-growth, but recently it adopted McClure's report as a formal aspect of its commercial zoning process. In addition, the city now requires a market study from new retailers detailing potential economic effects on existing retail areas. The commission is also awaiting a report that will suggest ways it can assist small businesses.
"In general, blight is a fairly long process," McClure said. "It takes longer than the time an official sits on the City Commission, so it's hard for them to say 'no' to development just because of some mustached professor's projections."
Bonnie Augustine, city commissioner, said that she was not particularly worried about overbuilding right now, but agreed that it was an issue that needed to be addressed.
He said that if 1998 did not turn out to be a growth in spending year, Lawrence would not be able to absorb its new retail growth.
"Overbuilding is something we need to be vigilant about in order to preserve the quality of our city," she said.

Victory leads women toward 20-win goal
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
Coach Marian Washington and her team are one win away.
The No. 21 Kansas Jayhawks moved within one victory of their preseason goal of 20 and Washington just one win short of her career 500th, with a 63-58 victory against Nebraska Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.
"I'm not thinking about 499, but I am thinking about 19," Washington said. "To have 19 wins right now is really great."
The win was spearheaded by something that has been commonplace during the Jayhawks current six-game winning streak: a strong performance from the Jayhawks' short-handed frontline.
Starting forwards Brooke Reves and Jaclyn Johnson, and center Nakia Sanford, dominated their Nebraska counterparts on both ends of the court, while logging an average of 35 minutes each.
"We weren't able to extend the time with some of our support players because we had to keep our scorers on the floor," Washington said. "I think we're in really good shape, but our inside depth is limited."
The aggressive trio crashed the boards for 29 rebounds, just three short of Nebraska's team total. They also outscored the Cornhuskers' frontcourt 41-14 on the strength of Reves' 19-point outing.
"Anytime you're in a game like this as an athlete you get caught up emotionally, wanting to avenge a previous loss," Washington said. "The way they beat us up there, it was important for us to find a way to even the score."
Unlike in the 20-point loss in Lincoln, the Jayhawks effectively navigated through Nebraska's full-court pressure and held off its dangerous guard combination until late in the second half.
"This team did a nice job handling
their runs, and we certainly did a nice job on the boards," Washington said.
"The player that we worked hard on was (Nicole) Kubik and we did a fairly decent job on her, but (Brooke) Schwartz got loose down the stretch. Like any good ballclub, they're going to find somebody to help keep them in the game."
Schwartz scored 24 points on 5-of-7 three-point shooting, four of which came in the second half. Schwartz, who scorched the Jayhawks for 36 points and wreaked havoc defensively in the earlier match-up, was held to just 5-of-21 shooting by Kansas' changing defenses and the individual efforts of the taller Reves and Lynn Pride. Pride added 11 points and pulled down 10 rebounds for her sixth double-double of the season.
Pride said wanting to play well at Allen Fieldhouse has spurred the recent winning streak.
"We really don't want to lose here at home," she said. "We don't even think about losing here, and that's the attitude we have going into games."
Kansas' current 21-game home winning streak is the third longest in the nation. Nebraska had the nation's third longest at 27 games before losing at home to Baylor last Wednesday.
The Jayhawks (19-6, 9-3) will have an opportunity to extend the streak and get Washington her milestone victory Tuesday night when they play the Iowa State Cyclones at the fieldhouse.
"It's going to be great when she gets that 500th win," Sanford said. "It fits in so perfectly with our team goals that we don't have to focus on it."
Washington continued to downplay her upcoming achievement and said she hoped the team would be more relaxed on Tuesday.
"I'm just pleased for them," she said.
"There's a lot of things that we might have been able to do a little better, but I'm pleased that we found a way to win."
Teammates step up as defenses center on Pride

Reves had 19 points, nine for 18 shooting and four rebounds in 36 minutes of playing time.
As Brooke Reves perused the stat sheet after the Kansas women's basketball team's 63-58 win against Nebraska Saturday, she liked what followed her name.
But the most telling stat was not on the sheet: number of defenders drawn to Reves' teammate Lynn Pride.
"Teams know that Double-train can score at will, and they have to double-train her to keep her from scoring," Reves said. "That just opens it up for everyone else."
Pride, the preseason pick for Big 12 player-of-the-year, entered the game aver

aging 18 points a game despite recent struggles. With teams employing zone defenses designed mostly to stop Pride, she has made 20 of the 61 shots taken during the last four games, including her 11-point, ten-rebound performance Saturday.
First, there was the career-high 23 points from Reves in a win against Kansas State Jan. 31. Senior center Nakia Sanford picked up the slack in the next two games — scoring a career-high 24 points and grabbing 11 rebounds against Colorado Feb. 3 and scoring 16 points against Missouri Feb. 7.
That defensive philosophy opens a door of opportunity that her teammates are happy to walk through.
Saturday, it was Reves' turn again
"Lynn makes me look good because she draws all kinds of players to her." Reves said.
Though it pains coach Marian Washington to see her top player struggle, she recognizes the positives from Pride's situation.
"This stretch may be some of the best learning experience for Lynn," said Washington, who notched her 499th win Saturday. "Everybody is trying to find a way to isolate Lynn, trying to double and triple team her. But in the process, she's helping open up a lot of opportunities for her teammates."
A large part of the win Saturday at Allen
Fieldhouse can be attributed as much to Pride's defense as to her teammates' offense. For most of the game, Pride guarded Nebraska guard Nicole Kubik, who entered averaging 19 points a game. Kubik, who scored a career-high 36 points when Nebraska beat Kansas 82-62 Jan. 16, hit five of 21 shots Saturday, finishing with 14 points.
Still, Pride misses the days of facing only one defender, when she could slash to the basket or pull up for a jumper without being swarmed.
"It gets a little frustrating," Pride said.
"The fact that I'm not nailing down my shot is more frustrating than being double-teamed.
"But as long as we get the victory off, that's a loss on them."
Young, Red Raiders rip into defense, defeat men
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
LUBBOCK, Texas — Can you say deja vu? A recurring theme that has plagued the Kansas men's basketball team all season rebounded Saturday as the Jayhawks squandered yet another seemingly insumountable lead and lost 90-84 to Texas Tech.
Kansas held a 62-48 lead with less than 10 minutes remaining when Texas Tech guard Rayford Young took control. The 5-11 junior poured in of 32 his career-high 41 points in the final nine minutes as Texas Claim its first victory against the
Jayhawks in 10 tries.
"We were up 14 points with about 10 minutes to go and we gave it to them," Kansas forward Nick Bradford said. "We can't put anyone away right now. When you've got somebody by the throat you've got to put them down and we're not doing that right now."

And they haven't done it all season.
Boschee: Hit three straight three-point shots at game's end
Last Wednesday, the
Jayhawks lost to Nebraska 64-59 after blowing an 11-point lead with eight minutes left in the game. Kansas also squandered 17-point leads in both games against Colorado before eking out last-minute victories and frittered away a double-digit second-half lead to Iowa, losing 85-81.
"I don't know what it is, but we're doing something wrong." Bradford said of the Jayhawks' inability to hold on to a lead. "Maybe we're getting too lackadaisical when we're up by that many points. Maybe we're getting a little tentative and waiting for the clock to run out instead of playing. Whatever it is, it needs to change."
Young certainly changed his game around in the second half of Saturday's game after scoring only six points on 2-of-8 shooting before intermission.
The ejection of a Texas Tech yell leader ignited the hometown fans and helped the Red Raiders go on a 17-4 run, which tied the game at 67-67 with 4:45 remaining. Young, who connected on 18 of 18 free throws and canned five second-half three-pointers, scored 15 straight points in the surge.
"I've been watching Kansas play on TV a lot this year and I've seen them give up some leads," Young said. "We didn't get our heads down at all. Coach Dickey said that we're still in this game, they're vulnerable, we can get on a roll and make this close."
With Texas Tech holding on to a 77-75 lead with less than two minutes left, Kansas guard Joff Boschie was charged with an intentional foul on Young.

It is said that the third time is a pharm. But for the Kansas men's swimming and diving team, victory came the fifth time around.
The team defeated the Iowa men Saturday at Robinson Natorium 142-101, its first victory of the five previous Kansas-Iowa match-ups. And they won with distance swimmer Tyler Painter cheering from the deck rather than swimming in the pool.
Three days before the meet,
senior Trent Hartl said he
expected a challenge from Iowa
whether or not Painter swam.
- But the Kansas men raced harder and coach Gary Kempf was pleased.
"I think they're going to come in and race us hard," Hartl said Wednesday.
"It's a real confidence builder. We swam well enough to win." Kempf said. "I'm real pleased with how we raced."
KU SWIMMING
Peoples attributed the team's success to its togetherness. He said the team was more motivated this week compared to last week's loss to Iowa State.
Seniors Blundell, Harti and Brant Peoples said they wanted their last home meet to be something they would remember.
"Last week we didn't have as much cheering," Peoples said. "This week we got behind each other and came together as a team."
"We talked about it and we wanted to go out fast," Blundell said of Saturday's victory. "It means a lot after swimming for four years."
Outstanding performances came from freshman Mark Daily, who placed first in the 500-yard free-style, and junior Brandon Chestnut, who won the 200-yard breast-stroke. The 400-yard freestyle relay, made up of Peoples, sophomore Jason Carr, junior Andy Kyser and Hartl also took first. Daily, freshman Nathan Rice, sophomore Will Bernhardt and junior Drew Dischinger placed second in the 400-yard freestyle relay.

Kempf said the meet was a breakthrough for Hartl, who had been sick, and Peoples, who had been frustrated with his performances this year.
"I knew they had the ability," Kempf said. "I did not know whether they were going to step up. And they did."
Harlwon the 200-yard freestyle with his best time of the season and Peoples won both the 50-yard and 100-yard freestyles despite their respective quandaries. Both men agreed that, instead of nostalgia, the reigning emotion at the close of the meet was amusement.
"In my last meet here I just wanted to go out and have some
fun," Hartl said. "It's always fun to have meets like this."

Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Your assignment for today is to lay low and take notes. A person who thinks he or she knows everything wants to tell you what to do, and you'd be a fool to argue. This person may actually know what he or she is talking about.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 7.
You could cinch a deal today that would open new horizons. Communication is your specialty, and right now you could learn how to communicate on a new level. This might help you advance your career or find a career you love.
Cancer June 22-July 22:] Today is a 5.
There's no scarcity of money out there, you know. A lot of people have it, and they're looking for ways to invest it. All you have to do is link up with one of them. Be willing to do the work, and the profits could be yours.

The intensity of a conversation with a loved one today could startle you. You like your freedom, but today you're being pushed to put more structure into your life. Just make the commitment. It could make your life easier.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 5.
Looks like you'd rather stay home today than do anything else. If you can manage to pull that off, you should. If you're not able to spend the whole day at home, then spend as much time as you can there.

What you're learning now could propel you into all sorts of new adventures, and you're definitely in the mood to study. The more you acquire in the way of new skills, the more valuable you become to yourself and to other people.

Mihm had 21 points and 15 rebounds despite playing only 23 minutes because of foul trouble Sunday, and the Longhoms stayed alone atop the conference standings by beating Oklahoma State 73-68.

diffe, young said. 501 guessed a good acting job.
Young hit both free throws and center Andy Ellis added another free throw on the subsequent possession to give Tech Nash an 80-75 lead with 120 remaining. Bosche made three three-pointers in a span of 22 seconds, but Young sealed the victory by making 10 of 10 free throws in the final minute.
Texas Tech, 12-13 overall and 4-8 in the Big 12, made 30 of 32 free throws, while the Jayhawks once again struggled from the line, hitting only 13 of 23. Boschee, Bradford and Ryan Robertson paced the Jayhawks with 16 points apiece, but it was not enough to overcome Texas Tech's 60 second-half points.
Kansas, 16-8 overall and 84 in the Big 12, now has lost five of its last nine games and has seriously hampered its chances of a fifth straight conference title. Despite the skepticism, Robertson does not think the Jayhawk fans should give up hope.

Track teams combine for nine titles
Patterson was one of eight Kansas athletes who won individual titles Friday at the Kansas Pre-Conference Invitational at Anschutz Sports Pavilion.
Nine individual titles and six runner-up finishes gave the men's and women's track teams perhaps their best performances of the season and made their athletes eager for next weekend's Big 12 Indoor Championships.
"I needed this week to get back on track, because everything's about gearing up for the big meet next week," said hurdler Eric Patterson.
All-American Andrea Branson vaulted over 12 feet for the fourth time this season, winning the pole
vault and provisionally qualifyin| for the NCAA Championships.
Captain Colby Miller won the men's pole vault for the first time this season and provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships with a vault of 17 feet, 3/12 inches.
Other winners included Patterson in the 55-meter hurdles, senior Craig Hettche in the 800 meters, Lester Smith in the triple jump and Charlie Gruber in the 1,000 meters. Diane Heffernan won the 1,000-meter run. She and Branson were the only first-place finishers for the women's team.
Schwartz said he was pleased with his athletics' performances.
Kansan Sportswriter
"I feel better about the things we did in this meet than any meet we've had before. It's a lot of good progress toward the big one next week," he said.
Great performances, including three provisional qualifying marks, were what coach Gary Schwartz expected from his team.

It was the third time this season Russell won both events, setting a new Anschutz record in the throw and automatically qualifying for the NCAA Championships with a mark of 68 feet, 11 1/2 inches. He then won the shot put and provisionally qualified with a mark of 59 feet, 5 1/2 inches.
Scott Russell, an All-American thrower, turned in another dominating performance, winning both the 35-pound weight throw and the shot put.
"Sometimes it's hard to get athletes geared up for this kind of meet. Hopefully the way that we performed today will be indicative of what will happen at conference." Schwartz said.

Commentary
Kansas' support is easily deceiving
Basketball fans' 'greatness' is a debatable issue
This is from a forwarded e-mail I got from my sister:
it is time to elect a world leader, and your vote counts. Here's the scoop on the three leading candidates
Candidate A associates with ward heelers and consults with astrologists. He's had two mistresses. He chain smokes and drinks eight to 10 martinis a day.
1967
Sam
Mellinger
sports@kansan.co
Candidate B was kicked out of office twice
sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of brandy every morning.
Candidate C: is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and hasn't had any illicit affairs.
Which of these candidates is your choice?
Then you scroll down, and it reads;
Here's a couple more things to think about:
It's obvious that the local men's basketball team is not near what Jayhawk fans have been spoiled with the last few years. I'm not going to pretend to know why they have lost so many leads late in games, but what I do know is that losing a few games has made claims of KU having college basketball's best fans look like a crock.
The student section wasn't even full for last week's game against Nebraska. KU's hoop fans were among the nation's best the last two years, but it's easy to support a
team that never loses.
I couldn't find any statistics, but when Duke struggled during the 1994-95 season, their fans still came out in droves. Every time Duke had a home game on television, you could see the Cameron Crazies jumping around and screaming their heads off the same as they had during the Blue Devils' back-to-back championship runs in 1991 and 1992.
Sure, Duke's Cameron Indoor Stadium has fewer seats to fill than Allen Fieldhouse, but Duke was horrible that year, going 13-18, including 2-14 in the conference. Kansas has already won 16 games and is still in position to make the NCAA Tournament.
I hope I'm wrong. I hope that KU fans are not what the empty seats against Nebraska would suggest.
Last semester I had the pleasure of covering coach Washington's squad for the Kansan. Marian Washington has one of the most engaging personalities of anyone I've met. I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I met her, but she's the kind of woman you just can't help but like.
On a more positive Kansas basketball note, the women's team is poised to give Marian Washington her 500th career win if they can knock off Iowa State tomorrow.
it's normal for players to back their coach, but there's a different relationship with Washington. Her office is filled with pictures of past players, and those associated with her seem incapable of saying anything less than wonderful about the 26th-year coach.
She has done some amazing things, such as founding the women's track and field team her first year at Kansas while working on her master's degree in biodynamics and administration. That was just the first in a 26-year-and-counting run of outstanding deeds, far too many for this column.
Even if Allen Fieldhouse won't be full tomorrow, Marian Washington's accomplishment should not go unnoticed.

Kansas women's tennis secures regional standing
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas women's tennis team solidified its top ranking in the Central Region by defeating BYU. 9-0 last Friday.
BYU was ranked second in the region and Kansas was No.1.
The win marked the first dual-met wi of the season. Kansas improved to 1-2.
This was a really big win for us," said freshman Cheryl Malliach. "We were really excited and pumped to play the
Kris Sell won her sixth match against a ranked opponent by defeating Gee
KANSAS
Gee Garvin 7-5, 4-6, 6-0. By beating Garvin, ranked No. 68 nationally, Sell improved her singles record to 18-7.
Junior Julia Sidorova said the team was both physically and mentally prepared for the match.
"Everyone just clicked, we just had a feeling," she said. "We all just came out with the perfect game plans."
Previously, BYU had defeated Kansas three straight years.
"My freshman year they beat us 5-4, and my sophomore year they won 6-3," Sidorova said. "I really wanted to beat them."
Brooke Chiller and Monica Sekulov won their matches 6-3, 6-4, and 6-4, 6-1, respectively.
Chiller's and Sekulov's singles was marked their second consecutive wins of the season
Four of the singles matches went to three sets.
Singles player Malliah, No. 3 for the Jay-
hawks, defended Kim Kelly, 5-7, 2-6, 2-3.
"There were a lot of tough matches and they were tough competitors," Mallaiah said. "We just wanted it more because they beat us at home last year."
Freshman Christi Wagenaar also won her singles matches 5-7, 6-2, 6-1.
All three doubles teams won their first matches of the season.
TENNIS
Sidorova, the Kansas' No. 5 singles player, defeated Jodi Richardson 6-3, 2-6, 6-0.
All three doubles teams won
Sell and Maliaiah won their No. 1 doubles match, 8-4.
As a freshman, Malliaah said she was getting more used to playing the big matches.
"I was really nervous in the first two matches against Duke and William and Mary. But the more wins I get, the more relaxed I become," she said.
Chiller and Sidorova and Wagenaar and Sekolov won their doubles matches 8-3 and 8-6, respectively.
The team will travel to Madison, Wis., on Wednesday to prepare for the National Team Indoor Championship being played at the University of Wisconsin Thursday through Sunday.
The Kansas men's tennis team soared to another victory Friday by defeating Ohio State 6-1.
Kansan sportswriter
The team has not lost since the first match of the season and has improved its record to 4-1.
"We are playing better as a team," said senior Luis Uribe. "For a while, only two or three of us would play well on each night, but now that we have more matches under us, we are getting better. Against Ohio State, we won easily."
By Melinda Weaver
Men net win against Ohio State
The Jayhawks have captured the doubles point in every match this season and have won 12 of 15 doubles matches overall.
"We play aggressive doubles," Coach Mark Riley said. "We play basic doubles, nothing too fancy, but, over the next couple of weeks, we are going to add a few things to our game that we haven't even worked on yet. We should get better."
In the last three matches, against Minnesota, Wichita State and Ohio State, the team has split double matches, relying on No. 2 doubles team Kenny Powell and Alex Barragan for the point. The duo has not disappointed, remaining
"I like the pressure," Powell said. "I welcome the opportunity to win the point for my team. I have a lot of confidence not only in myself but also in Alex. Coming through in the last three matches has given us a lot confidence. We think we can beat anyone in the nation."
undefeated on the season.
Just as it did against Wichita State, Kansas won five of six singles matches, the only defeat coming from Ed Dus, who lost to Kevin Hawke 7-5, 6-4.
Uribe defeated Chris Porter 6-3, 6-3. Uribe has 99 victories in both singles and doubles and will have a chance to reach 100 in each on Feb. 28 against Iowa in front of a home crowd. Only two others in Kansas history, Mike Wolf and Craig Wildey, have accomplished this feat.
"I don't think about stuff like that very much," Uribe said. "But now I am really excited. I'm glad my next match is in Lawrence. I hope I can win at home and lots of people will show up to support me."
The Jayhawk freshmen, Alex Barragan, Quentin Blakeney and Rodrigo Echagaray, have improved their performance, combining for six wins this week.
Barragan is the first freshman to win 10 matches in a season since Uribe in 1996.
"They're starting to get more confidence and comfort with what

Freshman begins to recover her life
Today is one of three lobbying days in which KU students are participants. KU will have its own lobbying days Feb. 25 and March 16.
After sustaining head injuries that left her in a coma, a KU student slowly returns to her daily routine.
Two and a half months ago, Dorothy "Sally" Kay, Lawrence freshman, was in a coma after being hit by a truck. After extensive rehabilitation, she enrolled in a class and returned to work at the Granada , 1020 Massachusetts St.

The ability to live on their own, attend classes and hold a job are things that most KU students take for granted.
For Dorothy "Sally" Kay, Lawrence freshman, the past two and a half months have led up to the chance for her to reclaim these basic abilities.
Two and a half months ago, Kay lay in a hospital bed in a coma. After extensive rehabilitation, she's attending a class, working and controlling her life again.
"He hit me and drove another block, and finally, I rolled off the hood, and he stopped," Kav said.
On the night of Nov. 29, Kay was walking home from her job at Granada Theater, 1020 Massachusetts St., when her life was changed. As Kay was crossing the intersection of 11th and Kentucky streets, she was hit by a truck driven by an accused drunk driver.
Josh Fry. Meriden sophomore, was in his apartment when he heard the accident and
looked out his window to see what happened.
"It was kind of frightening," Fry said. "I looked out the window and saw a girl's body in the street."
As Kay lay in the street with a cracked pelvis, a cracked vertebrae and a massive head injury, Fry covered her with a blanket to keep her from going into shock while they waited for paramedics to arrive.
Kay was treated by Lawrence emergency workers and then was transported to the University of Kansas Medical Center.
Physician Ed Childs, a surgeon at the Med Center, was one of the physicians who treated Kay when she was admitted.
Childs that with cases of severe head injury like Kay's, physicians worked quickly to decrease the pressure on the patient's brain caused by swelling and that they tried to provide enough oxygen to prevent brain injury and damage.
Physicians evaluate head injuries on the patients' ability to talk understandably, move their extremities and on an analysis of their pupil response. When Kay was admitted to the
Med Center, she was in a coma — not able to sneak, move or respond.
Kay remained in a coma for about three days, unresponsive to her family and friends who visited her in the hospital.
"It's always upsetting seeing one of your friends in the hospital," said Margaret Zeddies, one of Kay's roommates. "It was disturbing because she wasn't conscious."
Zeddies said that she and Kay's other friends visited her and would try to talk to her about everyday things such as their new apartment. They hoped that Kay could hear them and would be encouraged by it.
"I think, in the hospital, having my friends visit helped me," Kay said.
When she finally woke up, she was confused and had to be told about her accident.
After a month-long hospital stay, Kay went home Dec. 29 to stay with her parents and begin the process of rehabilitation and recovery from her injuries. Although difficult, her recovery process has been relatively rapid.

Watkins promotion offers discounted HIV tests to students
By T.J. Johnson
Ypsoon staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Watkins Memorial Health Center is sponsoring an HIV-testing promotion this month offering discounted HIV tests to KU students.
Randall Rock, chief of staff at Watkins, said that the $10 discount should make testing more affordable for students who want to be tested.
Rock said that the idea to offer discounted testing to students came from a desire to remove as many barriers as possible for people who wanted to be tested.
"Unfortunately, we can't offer the test without charge, but this is the most economical method available."Rock said.
The discount applies to both the standard blood-antibody test, which involves taking a blood sample, and the Orasure test that analyzes a sample of cheek cells for antibodies to the HIV virus.
Deb Howes, Watkins Health Promotions health educator, said that this was the first time Watkins had offered discounted HIV testing for students.
With the promotional discount, the blood test will cost students $10 and the Orasure test will cost $20.
their needs when choosing which test to have.
Howes said that students should consider
She said that the results of the Orasure test took about two weeks to come back, while results for the blood test could be available in one week.
The tests are available on either a confidential or anonymous basis. The confidential test is available for walk-in patients at Watkins. Any student who has a confidential HIV test must use their real name while being tested.
Rock said that the results of the confidential test would be placed in the student's health records at Watkins. He said that these records only could be released with permission of the student and that any portion of the records could be withheld at the student's request.
The anonymous testing requires an appointment. Students who are tested anonymously can use a fictitious name and will receive their test results confidentially using that name.
He said that he would recommend that students use the testing service at Watkins instead of test-at-home kits available at drug stores.
All students who are tested at Watkins schedule a counseling meeting to obtain their test results. This will give them a chance to meet with a health care professional and discuss the results of the test and any other questions the students might have, Rock said.
Howes said that students should use their own personal choice in deciding whether to get tested. People who engage in high-risk sexual activities should consider getting tested, she said.
Josh Jordan, Emporia sophomore, said he thought the promotion would encourage students to get tested.
"I think that it's an excellent idea because the cost factor might sway people from an otherwise responsible action."
The promotion will last until March 1.

While on patrol, police heard glass break and saw the men driving away. They stopped the men and discovered four car stereos in their vehicle.
Police later received calls from the own ers of the other three hurledized cars.
The men were already in custody when a 19-year-old KU student reported to police that her car had been broken into near Einstein Bros. Bagels, 1026 Massachusetts St., Wheeler said.

Clinton: Encourages Mexico to continue war on drusas.
Answering Mexican and U.S. congressional complaints that the current process is vague, one-sided and political, Clinton and Zedillo outlined today 16 measures — including extraditions by Mexico and dealing with United States consumers' demand for illegal drugs.
In two weeks, Clinton must, in the face of unfulfilled extradition promises and dropping drug seizures, render a formal evaluation of Mexico's cooperation in shutting down the narcotics trade.
“our courses are converging,” Clinton told Mexicans in an address at the Peon Contreas Theater.

BAGHDAD, Iraq — Iraq will attack a Turkish base for U.S. warplanes — and other American and British bases in the region — if the jets continue to patrol the skies over Iraq, the Iraqi vice president warned yesterday.
Iraq threatens to attack U.S. jets based in Turkey
Taha Yassin Ramadan's threat, stated in an interview with Radio Monte Carlo, monitored in Baghdad, marked the first time in years that Iraq has threatened to attack neighboring Turkey.
U. S. jets based at Incirlik, in south Turkey, have struck almost daily at Iraqi defense sites after being targeted by Iraqi defenses while patrolling the "nofly" zone over the north of the country.
Ramadan threatened attacks on the Incirlik base and repeated Iraq's threat Sunday on other bases in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait from which U.S. and British jets patrol a southern no-fly zone.
Serbia willing to grant Albanians wide self-rule
PARIS — Serbia is willing to make major compromises and grant rival ethnic Albanians broad self-rule, but it adamantly opposes having NATO troops police a Kosovo agreement, the republic's president said yesterday.
For the first time since the Kosovo peace conference started Feb. 6, Milan Milutinovic indicated Serbs were willing to give up most of the demands that have stalled the talks — with the exception of NATO peacekeeping troops.
Asked whether the proposed NATO deployment was the major sticking point and the rest was negotiable, he said: "Yes, that is right."
Mulinivic said any NATO deployment would "badly damage our sovereignty" and that NATO bombing raids in the absence of an agreement would amount to "an aggression and a war crime."
On Sunday, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright伯敏 Miliutinovic at a Paris meeting that Serbian sources described as extremely unpleasant.
The Associated Press
NATO already is making plans to send as many as 30,000 troops into Kosovo, including 4,000 U.S. troops.
But the Albanians want NATO troops to police any agreement because they don't trust the Serbian government.

Panel debates perceptions of skin color
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff write
MARA
Taking her daughter to buy a Barbie, brought the issues of color and beauty into focus for one African-American KU student.
From left: Melissa Emerson, Tapeka freshman; Shyra McGee, Wichita junior; Lumah Brown, Kansas City, Mo., senior; Julius Williams, assistant director of the Office of Minority Affairs; and Dion Jonis, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, senior; discuss African-American perceptions of beauty and color. The debate was held last night at the Burge Union and attended by more than 40 people. Photo by Erin McElhinney/KANSAN
"She didn't want the darker one," said Kim Moore, Lawrence sophmore. "She wanted the white one because she said it was more beauti-ful."
Moore was one of 40 people who attended a panel discussion last night at the Daisy Hill Room in the Burge Union that discussed African-American perceptions of beauty and color.
Tamara Lewis, assistant director at the Office of Minority Affairs, who conducted the debate, said that the panel consisted of African Americans of all hues, and all were beautiful.
Lewis said that her childhood experiences at home had influenced her perception of beauty.
"I got conditioned to think that only light-skinned women were beautiful," she said.
Panelist Julius Williams, assistant director at the Office of Minority Affairs, said he had a parallel experience growing up in Little Rock, Ark.
"It was very evident that light-skinned people had an advantage in our immediate family," Williams said.
But light-skinned African Americans didn't have it easy either, Williams said.
"In the '60s, when Black became beautiful, lighter-skinned people developed a complex aboot their beauty." Williams said.
Melissa Emerson, Topeka freshman and panelist, said that because of her lighter-toned skin she was pressured
to prove her African-American identity.
She said she felt as if she had to go to Black Student Union meetings so that people would know that she was Black.
But for Tashia Bradley, Orlando, Fla,
graduate student, the situation was
reversed because of her darker skin.
"I remember my mother saying, try to marry a light-skinned guy," Bradley said.
When her mother said this, she was implying that darker skinned individuals were inferior. Bradley said.
While the home is where many ideas of beauty are forged, the images of African Americans in the media also have a strong influence. The media still affects public perceptions of beauty, Lewis said.
Shyra McGee, Wichita junior, said that the media mattered, but it was time for parental influence in the home to take control of children's perceptions of beauty.
"5-2, 6-5 or 7-3. I look good," McGee said. "It is because of things my parents said to me when I was growing up. I think it's important to stop worrying about the media and to start investing in ourselves."

She said that Kay's short-term memory was not perfect yet and that she repeated questions at times but that her overall improvement had been good.
"Her progress has been remarkable."
Zeddies said. "She seems to a lot bet-
Kay's father, Richard Kay, a retired KU professor of history, said that she had a seven-hour, neuro-psychological test at the Med Center last week to gauge her progress. He said that she was given a clear bill of health.
He said that Kay had to avoid rough sports for a few months but that overall her condition almost was back to normal.
"She seems to be miraculously recovered," he said, "Everyone we talk to seems to think this is the best possible case."
Richard Kay said that he and his wife were glad that Kay had been so successful in her recovery and that she was able to live on her own again and participate in activities she enjoyed.
"We're really pleased that she is back to normal," he said.
When judging whether a head injury patient would be able to recover like Kay had, Childs said that it was difficult to predict which patients would do well.
He said that it was not uncommon for a head-injury patient to recover but that it was equally common for such a patient not to recover.
He said that he had seen patients who remained in comas for four to five months and awoke completely coherent — not understanding why they were suddenly in a hospital.
Some patients, conversely, never recover their mental faculties.
Childs said that short-term memory was typically the last thing to be fully restored in head-injury patients, such as Kay. He said that this process could take months.
Despite the time and pain Kay has spent recovering, she said that she felt lucky.
Kay said that she was ready to move on from the accident and resume her life.
Childs said that in cases of severe
injury, patients could develop a type of post-traumatic stress brought on by their inability to remember their accident and by the constant reminders from those around them of how lucky they were to have survived.
Kay echoed Childs thoughts when summarizing her feelings about the accident: "I just want to be done with the accident and not have to think about it ever again."
Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said last week that the driver of the truck had not yet been formally charged in the case. He said that the accident investigation was ongoing. The driver reportedly had a green light through the intersection when Kay was hit.
Wheeler said that the report in the case would be sent to the Douglas County District Attorney's office before any action would be taken. He did not know how long this process would take.

Senate recorded proper decision in Clinton's impeachment trial
The U.S. Senate made the correct decision Friday when it acquitted President Clinton of two impeachment charges.
Although Clinton's conduct during and after his affair with former White House intern Monica Lewinsky was shameful, it did not warrant an overturning of the presidential election.
Senators failed to reach a two-thirds majority on either of the two counts against President Clinton. Five Republican senators joined their Democratic colleagues in voting down the charge of obstruction of justice, and 10 Republicans voted
The president's disgraceful affair with an intern did not require removal from office.
against the perjury charge.
All 45 of the Senate's Democrats reelected both counts.
Following the historic vote, senators from both parties expressed gratitude that the five-week impeachment trial had been brought to a close.
Be that as it may, it is foolish to believe that this saga now belongs to the pages of history.
Independent Counsel Kenneth Starr still may pursue an indictment against the president. Clinton himself will spend the remainder of his second term dealing with a Republican-dominated congress that tried to force him from office.
Clinton also stands to face the same historical fate as Andrew Johnson, who survived a similar impeachment trial in 1868. Regardless of any other contributions, Clinton's legacy has been blemished by disgrace to the nation's highest elected office. That alone will be punishment enough for him.

Concealed guns bring aura of danger
Some Kansas legislators apparently want to give certain individuals the right to carry a concealed handgun. Obviously, these legislators are grossly mistaken. Such a law is erroneous and blatantly dangerous.
The bill under consideration in the Legislature would allow the Kansas Bureau of Investigation the right to grant licenses to individuals who are at least 21 years of age, have completed a weapons safety and training course, have no felony convictions, and have no history of mental illness or drug and alcohol abuse in the previous five years. The Legislature passed a similar bill two years ago, but Governor Bill Graves vetoed it - as he is likely to again.
Bill supporters suggest that states that have passed similar laws have shown significant decreases in violent crimes. According to Cease
A proposed bill would be ineffective in battling violent crime in Kansas.
Fire, a gun control advocacy group, violent crime rates have been decreasing in all states. Moreover, while gun manufacturers and their supporters declare guns effective for self-protection, only about 65,000 incidents of defensive uses of guns are reported each year, compared to the more than 800,000 incidents of violent handgun crimes. Reports of accidental shootings also have increased in these states.
Terri Moses, deputy chief of the Wichita Police Department, testified against the bill Feb. 8. She said the bill would be detrimental for three reasons: it removes local governments' control, it increases the number of guns on the street and it creates an atmosphere of fear. Furthermore, though the bill's proponents suggest women would be safer with the law, Moses said that idea is short-sighted and unrealistic.
Legislators obviously are misguided. Though public safety is and should remain a concern for lawmakers, legitimating the use of guns is an ill-conceived solution to violent crime problems. Students and others with similar feelings should contact their state legislator and encourage the representative to vehemently oppose the bill.
One goal of society should be to work for peaceful resolution, not vigilante justice. This bill only can inhibit progress in the fight against crime, as it could allow for situations similar to those of the Wild West.

JACKSON WILLIAMS
Only three people close to me have died during my lifetime. I know I should count myself lucky, but I don't. Especially when John Ginn, a friend and former journalism professor of mine, died last week.
Saturday's funeral service was beautiful, as I

knew it would be. Family, friends, students and former students shuffled into the Plymouth Congregational Church to bid farewell to a great man.
Former Kansan editors mingled with present Kansan editors, journalism professors mingled with John Ginn's family. We pointed and giggled at the collage of old photos of our friend at various stages of his life on display in the foyer, all the while trying not to acknowledge why we all were there. Then the service began.
My body stiffened as the pastor began to speak. I promised myself I would be strong that I wouldn't turn into that sobbing fool I knew I could become. In my mind, I was doing it for my friend. But in my heart, I knew that was a lie. I was doing it for me.
The eulogy touched my deeply, as I'm sure it did everyone. The pastor spoke of John Ginn's will to live, his fierce battle with cancer for 15 years and how we should be content that our friend is now with God.
It should have made me feel better. But it didn't. I know it's selfish, but I wasn't ready for him to go.
"There are too many things he still needed to teach me. I need his help if I'm to become as great a journalist as he was," I kept thinking throughout the service. I couldn't help but feel somewhat betrayed that he left
before I was ready.
As of Sunday, I had been dealing with the grief of losing a friend for nearly a week, though it hadn't hit me full-force until the funeral service. Grief literally consumed me while I was at work Saturday and then later when I went out with some friends. I couldn't think of anything else until late that night, when an image popped into my mind: John Ginn, leaning back in his chair, with his hands crossed behind his head.
Later, I reflected upon those thoughts, and I couldn't believe that they were mine. I couldn't understand why at the funeral of a friend, I would spend more time thinking of myself than of him and his family. How could I be so insensitive? Easy, I concluded. Grief made me do it.
Grief is a demanding mistress. At its bidding, we think strange thoughts. When it's at our side, we think of little else but it and ourselves. And though it's not the least bit enjoyable, we feed on grief, which makes us feel worse.
Whenever John Ginn would talk to me about my progress in his editorial-writing class last spring, he always would lean back in his chair and cross his hands behind his head. Beyond his achievements, that's my most treasured memory of that great man, which probably explains why that image brought a big smile to my face. It seems like a simple thing, and it is. I have no other explanation for it than finally realizing that John Ginn is getting a much-deserved rest from a life he lived so fiercely.
It took me a few days to come to some sort of closure, but I made it. I've successfully pushed aside the selfishness and replaced it with even more respect for a man who did as much as he could to help me become the journalist I am today. And I don't regret the tears that now stream down my cheeks. They're merely another way to thank John Ginn for everything he did for me.

U.S. actions against Iraq violate international law
Ian
Lowe
Guest columnist
JOHN RYAN
"crisis" or "showdown" in Iraq, it is important to remember that these are highly nuanced terms that barely describe the monstrous and ruthless nature of U.S. policy toward Iraq. In fact, it is impossible to evaluate U.S. policy in any instance without looking to the reality of the situation — perhaps a highly unthinkable notion.
Although the U.S. media and many ideologues apologetic of U.S. actions often refer to the
A good starting point might be the thick veils of distortion that obscure the U. S. role in Iraq.
It comes as no surprise that the media, along with the University Daily Kansan, have not been critical of the United States, going to remarkable lengths to exhort the merits of recent U.S. policy and military involvement.
Perhaps it is a convenient omission, but there has not been even a whisper that U.S. actions are an indisputable defiance of international law.
The United States and Britain announced to the world, with almost absurd and comical proportions, that our actions are indeed criminal and violent.
The U.N. Charter says quite unmistakably that "The Security Council determines any threat to peace, breach of peace, or act of aggression," allowing no exceptions, minus the right of self-defense.
I guess we can boot firmly the entire legal framework of the United Nations out the door, not having to worry about such archaic and bothersome conventions as international law.
In fact, all actions toward Iraq are constrained by Security Council Resolution 1154, which laid down the threat of "severest consequences" if Iraq continued to be uncooperative with UNSCOM.
All member states, with the exception of the United States and Britain, concluded with unanimous conviction that under no circumstances should a member state undertake its own military retaliation, something that clearly slipped the United States' mind.
In this case, the United States has done more than just orchestrate an impressive disregard for international law; we have
Of course, it is scarcely known that Iraq is incapable of producing the top allowable amounts of oil because its ability to process and pump oil was demolished by the 1991 war, or that the World Health Organization and World Food Program carefully have monitored Iraq's distribution of all food and medicine as required by Resolution 986. Both U.N. organizations gave every Iraqi governate an "A" rating.
Iraq, unfortunately, has experienced a dissolution of these standards as a direct outcome of the embargo. By UNICEF's own estimates, 5,000 to 6,000 children younger than five die each month because of easily curable diseases that result from a lack of clean water, medicine and supplies.
At best, postwar sanctions have been murderous, serving only to reinforce elite control, bringing up the obvious question: Why is it that we insist on their continuance?
Most critics of U.S. involvement in Iraq think that Saddam is a corrupt political figure who ignores international law, capable of blatant acts of lawlessness and aggression, but so is the United States. No clause exists, to my knowledge, in the U.N. Charter that allows a state to abdicate its responsibility to international law.
It is doubtlessly true that Saddam's regime has existed as a despotic, ruthless military dictatorship for 20 years, supported by the United States for its first 12 years, a period of innumerable human rights violations.
U. S. doctrinal institutions reflect the narrow spectrum of thought that is permissible, often overlooking many historical facts that paint the United States in a more sinister light. For example, the United States, followed by the United Kingdom, succeeded in shielding Saddam, who was at the time a trading partner and likable friend, from international censure right through the period of his greatest crimes, including the gassing of the Kurds. In another ironic turn of events, we supported him after the Gulf War in March 1991 as he quashed a Shi'ite uprising in the South that challenged his regime.
reiterated Bush's principle of "What We Say Goes," a phrase originally enumerated during the bombing raids of February 1991.
Maybe this concept is too outlandish for the world's self-described "greatest" and "most powerful" state: 570,000 dead and counting.

Personal safety attitudes divide weapons bill debate
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
At the center of a debate about the legalization of concealed handguns, is a divergence in attitudes toward personal safety.
Concealed Weapons Bill
Some Kansas residents would feel more secure carrying a gun in a purse or pocket, but others do not want to go through their days wondering who has a weapon.
Be at least 21 years old
Never have been convicted of a felony
To be licensed by the Kansas Bureau of Investigation to carry a concealed weapon, applicants must:
Never have been convicted of a drug-related or domestic-violence misdemeanor
"It could be that everyone will think they need a gun," said State Rep. Barbara Ballard, D-Lawrence, and assistant vice chancellor for student affairs at the University of Kansas.
Legislation that would allow individuals to carry concealed weapons is expected to go to the floor of the state House of Representatives this week.
944 Mass.
832-8228
Have completed a weapons safety course
To be approved for a license, applicants must be at least 21 and must complete a weapons safety course. They must be free of felony convictions, and they must have no history of mental illness.
Carrying concealed weapons would be prohibited on university campuses.
Rep. L. Candy Ruff, D-Leavenworth, the bill's foremost supporter, has described the right to carry concealed weapons as a women's safety issue.
During testimony before the House Federal and State Affairs Committee last week, Jan Exby of Overland Park said she had been raped by an unknown assailant.
But Katherine Rose-Mockry, program director for the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center at the University, rejected the idea that concealed guns were the answer for women.
"If we value women, then we must give them, not prevent them, from making choices on how to protect their lives," Exbay said.
"A majority of rapes and sexual violence occur between people who know each other, when it's less likely a woman would have a weapon with her," Rose-Mockry said.
Not be mentally ill or abuse alcohol or drugs
The center organizes self-defense workshops and educates women on how to protect themselves against sexual assault.
*We teach women to use their own bodies to avert or interrupt an
attack." she said.
Rose-Mocky also said she was concerned that if a woman used a weapon during a confrontation, she might be charged with a crime rather than the aggressor.
Jason Williams/KANSAN
Lt. Schuyler Balley of the KU Public Safety Office said his department was not taking a position on the bill, adding that it would not allow concealed guns at colleges or universities.
Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, said he supported the bill for the same reason he supported abortion rights.
"I believe that government should allow honest, law-abiding citizens to have the maximum freedom and flexibility possible. That's why I'm prochoice," Sloan said. "Is this going to lead to gun fights at the OK Corral? I don't think so."
But other local legislators said that they would vote against the bill.
Sen. Sandy Praeger, R-Lawrence, said there were cases when law-enforcement agents had been killed or had killed someone else by mistake because the agents were carrying weapons.
"And these are people who were trained," Praeger said. "There will be more mistakes, more crimes of passion."
Ballard agreed.
"When people are in the heat of an argument, they do things that in cooler moments they would not do," she said.
Despite the active debate surrounding the bill, few legislators give it much chance. The House and Senate both passed a similar bill in 1997, but Gov. Bill Graves vetoes it. His press secretary, Mike Matson, has said Graves has not changed his mind.
Ballard said a poll of her constituents revealed that they did not support the right to carry hidden weapons.
"The governor is going to veto this," Sloan said. "I don't believe in wasting our legislative time. There are so many other issues we should be dealing with."

become more bicycle-friendly in recent months because of pressure from the community. She said that she hoped that the City Commission would continue to be concerned about bike issues after the April elections.
Holly Krebs, KU Enviros member and McLouth junior, said that she hoped students would attend the forum.

City leaders consider renovating city streets to include bike lanes
Clay Comfort, chair of the City Commission's bicycle advisory committee, said that the committee would consider public input from tonight's meeting and present recommendations to the City Commission at a public study session March 17.
Red Lyon Tavern
Transportation Systems, Inc., based in Kansas City, Kan., will present the results of a $24,000 bicycle compatibility index study, which measured the level of comfort for bicyclists on 11 Lawrence roads — Naismith Drive and Louisiana, Vermont, Connecticut, Tennessee, Kentucky, W. Sixth, W. Ninth, 11th, 15th and 19th streets.
Krebs said that the study did not include Iowa or 23rd streets because the heavy traffic made it impossible to integrate bike transportation. But she said that there was a possibility of constructing off-road bike paths along those streets.
"The public response has been very good," he said. "I hope we can get some firm objective recommendations about which streets can be adapted for bike lanes."
Mark Bradshaw, KU Environs
Bradshaw said that he was not sure how long it would take to implement the options decided on at the forum but that minor changes such as lane changes could be completed by next year.
The forum, which is sponsored by KU Environics and the City of Lawrence, will meet at 6 p.m. at the Jawahiri Room in the Kansas Union.

member and Walnut junior, said that an example of a dangerous street according to the index would be one with four lanes and a speed limit of more than 50 miles per hour. He said that a safe street would be a one-way street with no parking, wide lanes and a speed limit under 20 miles per hour.
Bradshaw said the city had been increasingly responsive to the needs of bicyclists during the past year.
FREEDRYS
"We've been through the wishful thinking stages, and now we're moving into the actual logistics," he said. "Now we just have to figure out the best places to start."

Williams'
Fair targets undecided students
Advisers to help undergraduates choose a major
By Chris Hopkins
Knappon staff writer
Kansan staff writer
About one in 11 University of Kansas students didn't have a major at the beginning of this school year, according to the Office of the Institute for Educational Research and Public Service.
Today at Majors Fair 1999, students looking for majors will be able to talk to representatives from 60 departments, take a career assessment test and hear the advice of other students who have been through the process of choosing or changing majors.
The fair will run from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Kansas University Ball-
Tammara Durham, assistant director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center, said that students who didn't declare a major were less likely to graduate from the University.
"Hopefully this will help with our retention efforts," she said.
Durham said that the center had sent out about 8,000 invitations and that she was hoping at least 500 students would attend.
Richard Hardin, chair of the English department, will represent his program at the fair. Hardin said that his only wish was that the fair could be in a more central location.
"I'm a little bit concerned that some students won't get over to it," he said.
Durham said that the center had taken location into consideration but that the only other place that was big enough, Allen Fieldhouse, was too big.
Despite the location, Hardin said that he still liked the premise of the fair.
"The University's a big place," he said. "We need to make this knowledge available to students who have questions."
For students who aren't sure where to start asking questions, Richard Nelson, assistant director of Counseling and Psychological Services, will give students a quick career assessment test.
Career assessment workshops will be held at 11:30 a.m., 1 p.m. and 2 p.m.
Nelson said that one of his goals in administering the test was to encourage students go to Career Counseling and Planning Service.
"We're trying to hook them to get them to come back in," he said.
Nelson said that although the test he was going to give at the fair only put students in one of
six groups, the analysis administered at Career Counseling gave the students a seven-page printout to work with.
"That assessment is very helpful in exploring career and major options," Nelson said.
Another event at the fair will be a student panel discussion, "Relax! It's Only Your life," which will take place at 11 a.m., noon and 2:30 p.m.
Toyin Adeyunjan, Lawrence junior, will be a member of the 2:30 p.m. panel. She said that she wanted to help students feel less pressure to find out what they wanted to do.
"Take it slow, relax, get a taste of everything," she said.
This is the first year since 1996 that a majors fair has been held. In 1996, the Student Senate University Affairs Committee held a similar event. Attendance was 200 students, which caused some complaint among the participants.
Watson Library to improve research tools
New computer center to aid faculty, students in learning databases
By Karen Lucas
Special to the Kansan
Paulette DIFilippo, reference librarian, was giving a computer demonstration yesterday to 15 students who were huddled around a single terminal in the main area of Watson Library's reference department.
Not everyone could see the computer screen and some eyes wandered off in other directions.
DiFilippo's voice had to compete with the screeching sounds of the dot matrix printers, and at nearby work stations, other students tried to stay focused on their work.
By next fall, a $200,000 center
for library instruction in the reference department will ease DIFlippo's and other librarians' training problems. The center also will increase computer capacity for patrons.
"The staff is pretty excited about this," said Bill Crowe, vice chancellor for information services and dean of libraries. "It will allow them to do their jobs more effectively with students and faculty."
The Clark Instruction Center, which will be located on the third floor, will have 16 computers along the walls, tables in the middle of the room, a laser printer and an instructor's console, said Cindy Pierard, instruction coordinator.
"It's a good space for teaching people how to use both print and electronic sources," she said. "It lets us demonstrate and also provide hands-on activities. We can
reconfigure the furniture to accommodate whatever we're doing in the session."
Deborah Gerner, associate professor of political science, said that she was looking forward to taking her classes to the center.
"People learn best by doing," Gerner said. "Having this library facility will give the students the chance to work with databases themselves rather than watching a reference librarian do it. There is no question my students will benefit from the improvement."
Lisa Bitel, associate professor of history and women's studies, also shared Gerner's enthusiasm.
"It will make the whole process of taking classes over there more efficient and comfortable." Bitel said.
When the library staff does not have classes in the center, patrons will be able to use its computers for research purposes.
Crowe said.
"It's a good idea," said Andrea Slagle, Ness City sophomore. "More people can work at the same time without having to wait for an open terminal."
Crowe said that funding for the center included a $37,500 grant from the Provost's Instructional Technology Fund, a $10,000 contribution from an anonymous donor, a $7,500 donation from the KU Friends of the Library and money from the libraries' operating budget.
He also said that the goal was to have the center done by the fall semester.
The center is named after Marilyn Clark, a retired Watson librarian, Crowe said.
"She was the spark plug for library instruction," he said. "She pushed very hard in the late '80s and early '90s for a revival of library instruction."

Cyclones set to spoil coach's historic night

Coach Marian Washington can win her 500th career game tonight when the red-hot Jayhawks battle the Cyclones at 7:05 in a top-25 showdown at Allen Fieldhouse.
The history-making event is inevitable. The Iowa State Cyclones just hope they can delay it a little.
"To be approaching that kind of milestone is unbelievable," said Iowa State coach Bill Fennelly. "It's amazing, the loyalty she's shown to Kansas basketball and that the University has shown to her. You don't see many coaches anymore who have that kind of longevity at a single institution. I think it'a a credit to both, and obviously, it's a great honor. I just hope she waits one more game."
Tonight's game has as much on the line for Washington's team as it does for her. The Jayhawks are in a second-place tie in the Big 12 Conference standings with the Cyclones at 9-3, only one game behind league-leading Texas Tech. A win for either team will be a huge step toward the league title.
"I think the game will provide a great atmosphere," Fennelly said. "I think you'll see a very intense game, and hopefully, we'll come down and play well."
The No. 19 Cyclones defeated the Jayhawks 70-58 Jan. 9 in Ames, Iowa and halted an eight-game winning streak. But No. 21 Kansas is a much different team one month later.

New coaching era begins for women's soccer

After a winter that brought major coaching changes, the Kansas women's soccer team officially began the Mark Francis era last week as spring practices got underway.
ritv agreed.
"I'm glad we're going to start something new here," sophomore forward Meghann Haven said. "We definitely have a good team. We just need the right coaching staff to get us put together."
Sophomore goalkeeper Katie Gar-
"We have enough talent here to win," Garrity said. "With the right coaching, I think we can do anything."
The team is confident that they've found the right coach in Francis.
"When I found out (Francis would be the coach), I was really excited," Garrity said. "He has an awesome background, and also, some of my friends used to be coached by him. They totally loved him, so I was pumped."
Coming off a 5-13-1 season and a last-
place finish in the Big 12, the Jayhawks were expecting some changes to occur.
"With Coach Magner we had some intense practices, but apparently, we weren't working on the right stuff. Now
Soccer Ball
we are," freshman forward Natalie Hoogveld said.
"We'll be better organized," Hoogveld said. "If anything we'll have better field position."
With a week of practice under their belts, they have noticed some changes for the better.
In addition to changes in the way they play, another notable change has occurred: the attitude of the players. The players hope that a more positive attitude will assist them with their
interactions on and off the field, making the team closer.
"Everyone is really excited to get some games in and see just how much we are improving." Garrity said.
Jayhawks' poor play causes quick poll exit
PATRIMONIO
Kansan sportswriter
By Kevin C. Wilson
After suffering two devastating losses last week to Texas Tech and Nebraska, the Jayhawks were deleted from both major top-25 polls for the first time in more than eight years.
The Kansas men's basketball team is now officially unranked.
Kansas, 16-8 overall and 8-4 in the Big 12, dropped out of the ESPN/USA Today top-25 poll for the first time since Jan. 28, 1991, snapping a streak of 150 consecutive weeks.
"We've really backed ourselves in the corner as far as the Big 12 is concerned, but there's still a light at the end of the tunnel," Pugh said. "I still say we're a good basketball team, but at times, we don't play that way. I think we have a lot of potential, but we have yet to reach it."
Although Kansas has slipped to fifth place in the Big 12 with four games remaining and its chances of winning a fifth-straight conference title have all but disappeared, senior T.J. Pugh remains confident.

The Jayhawks also slid out of The Associated Press' top 25 poll after spending only one week at No. 24.
"It's been a roller coaster," Pugh said of Kansas' up-and-down season. "Just when we think we're on the right track, we take a sten back."
After a three-game winning streak, the Jayhawks have now lost two in a row.
One reason for the dayhawks recent troubles has been the disappointing play of center Eric Chenowith.
The 7-foot sophomore had been the Jayhawks most effective offensive player for the first 19 games of the
In his last five games, Chenowith is averaging only 10.6 points, and he has made just 20 of 53 shots from the field for a 37.7 percent shooting. His free throw shooting also dropped, as he has connected on 52 percent on 13-of-25 from the line.
season, shooting 46.3 percent from the field, connecting on 74.4 percent from the free throw line and averaging a team-high 14.1 points.
"I'm not playing as well as I wish I could be right now," Chenwith said after Saturday's game in which he shot 5-of-16 from the field and grabbed five rebounds.
The Jayhawks next game is tomorrow night in Allen Fieldhouse against rival Kansas State
and senior Ryan Robertson is hoping Kansas can turn it around.
"What we need to do is get a little streak going." Robertson said. "We can't do anything about the past. If we come out and play the way this team is capable of playing, we can still accomplish some great things."
- Kansas forward Lester Earl returned to action Saturday after sitting out the last three games because of
an ankle injury. The 6-foot-8 junior, who has played in seven of the Jayhawks last 18 games, responded by scoring eight points and grabbing three rebounds in 16 minutes of play.
"It felt good to get back out there," Earl said. "The injury feels all right, but I'm just a little out of shape. I'm just looking to do what it takes to help the ball club win, like rebounding and scoring in the paint."
Commentary
Dedication, love tears and belief pave road to win
Quick story:
I was right.
About a year ago, I shot pool with Marian Washington. I was working on a story for The University Daily Kansan commemorating her 25th season as the women's basketball coach and thought a quick game of pool would provide insight into Washington's competitive nature.
We didn't call shots, because, well, I'm not good. I fell further and further behind as each of her striped balls banked, rolled and whizzed into waiting pockets. Then, riding this wave of impending victory, the usually stoic Washington started trash-talking, in a high-class form expected from Washington.
That ended shortly after she lined up to drop the eight ball that was teetering on the lip of a corner pocket. A gentle tap of the cue ball and Washington had victory and bragging rights. She choked. The eight ball dropped, followed by the cue ball, followed by her pride. I, with at least four of my balls still on the table, had won
The other day while we were talking, Washington brought up the "Miracle on Felt," as I affectionately refer to it. A year later, she still remembered how she had lost.
Marian Washington hates to lose.
"You know, you're the first person to beat me at my house, and we will have a rematch." Washington said. She was joking, I think.

A win by Washington's 21st-
ranked Jayhawks against No. 19.
Iowa St at 7:05 tonight at Allen Ft
Iowa St. at 7:05 tonight at Allen Fieldhouse will give her a 100ft straight-20 win season.
Publicly, Washington has played down the milestone. Privately, she has spoken of the win's importance. To understand the significance of 500 wins and where the Kansas women's basketball program is going, you must first understand where it came from — Washington's heart.
More importantly, a win would be No. 500 in Washington's career.
Washington started coaching at Kansas in 1972. Blatant racism and sexism, and lack of support from the University was the norm. In those days, Washington would post fliers about team tryouts, praying that players would show up. She didn't give her first scholarship until 1975 — a $200 check to Adrian Mitchell, who became the school's second all-time leading scorer.
The women's program now enjoys the luxuries afforded to its male counterparts. Title IX prohibits sex discrimination in sports receiving federal funds. Long gone are the days when Washington's teams would have to get dressed in restrooms because they had no locker room or when she would pack her teams into state-issued vans and travel for hours and hours to play the nation's top teams, fully realizing that playing teams located near Lawrence would take her program nowhere.
One word has brought Washington's program to where it is today: Belief.
When Washington takes recruiting trips, she sells the academics and past success. But above all else, she sells family. Washington and her players have a special bond of belief. They believe in her. She believes in them. Players listen and believe her message.
Case in point: Following her freshman year in 1978, Lynette Woodard sat down with Washington in a little Los Angeles cafe shortly after being named All-American in a banquet ceremony earlier that night. Woodward couldn't be happier, clutching her award. Washington wasn't saying much. Woodard finally broke the silence. "Coach, what's the matter?"
Washington replied, "Lynette, you have 24 hours to enjoy this. Then you have to decide if you want to become better or just rest on this."
Woodard became a four-time All-American, averaging 26.3 points and 12.4 rebounds during her Kansas career.
Washington doesn't know what to expect tonight. Her players really don't have anything planned for the win. She hopes there is a big crowd, though she won't say it. After a crowd of 13,352 fans showed up at a "Fill the Fieldhouse" promotion Jan. 9, 1994, to watch Kansas beat Colorado 59-57. Washington took a microphone at the end of the game and thanked the fans, through a blur of tears.
Tonight, when Washington follows her pregame ritual of returning alone to an empty locker room during her team's warmups, she will pray for the strength and ability to guide her team to a win. And, after the victory, if it should come, she will give thanks to God. Not so much for win No. 500, but for all those seemingly endless days that made tonight's game possible.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 16).
Focus on making money this year, but don't take too big of a risk. You don't want to lose more than you gain. In February, a great idea looks profitable. In March, you start gaining the rewards you've long sought. April is good for learning new skills and taking quick action. Looks like you're lucky in June, but the forward motion slows down by August. Money you loaned to a friend around then might as well be a gift.
To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 5.
Your carefully laid plans could go awry today. This is a development you hadn't planned for. Push again on a door you thought was locked but use compassion instead of more force.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Looks like things are humming right along, but don't let appearances deceive you. A breakdown later in the day could change your plans considerably. You would be advised well to continue paying attention, even when you think you have a done deal.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 4.
Gemini (may 21-5th, 2013) 8-4.
A picture's worth a thousand words today. If you're having trouble getting your idea across, try using a few illustrations. The person you're trying to communicate with will understand those better. An initial negative response could give way to a positive one tomorrow.

Travel to a distant shore looks appealing, possible and appropriate. But there's a glitch. There's some sort of chore that needs to be handled. You might be able to delegate it, but more likely you're just going to have to do it yourself. If you don't do it now, you'll have to do it later and would be worse.
If there's something you want for your home, check with older relatives first. You don't need antique stores if you have a real live grandma with a real live attic. Money can be saved and an emotional bond established from one generation to the next through hand-me-downs.
Virao [Aua. 23-Sept. 22]: Today is a 6.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 5.

A Tuesday night may seem strange for a date, but actually it's a great idea. The conversation will be sympathetic and genuine, and the two of you will find areas of understanding that transcend words altogether.
This is a good day to start a challenging, creative project. If you're like most libras, you're very good with color and design, and that's even more the case now as the moon transits Pisces, which symbolizes color and artistic intuition.
You may feel like you have to do everything for everybody, especially if a person you wanted to lean on doesn't seem to be up to the task. Give this person the jobs he or she is good at, and you'll have more time to do the things you do best.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 5.
Take those new skills you're learning and apply them at home. Looks like you'll be able to fix something that's broken, or build something you want, rather than having to go buy new.

hard way.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 5.
You've had the vision, but now you're going to have to make it happen, and that's going to take more than good ideas. It might also take an investment. This has to be done wisely, or you won't get all the way from here to there.

Pride's Perspective
Pride discusses life in the spotlight
Preseason Big 12 Player of the Year Lynn Pride has lived up to billing, leading the 21st-ranked women's basketball team in points (18.1), rebounds (7.4), assists (2.8) and steals (2.6). Pride sat down with the Kansan's Mike Harrity Saturday shortly after recording her sixth double-double of the season (11 points and ten rebounds) in the 63-58 win against Nebraska at Allen Fieldhouse. The conversation ranged from high expectations to coach Marian Washington's 500th win, which could happen tonight against No. 19 Iowa State at 7:05 at Allen Fieldhouse. The following is from the interview:
I didn't really consider the expectations this year pressure. If I allowed that type of pressure to be upon me, then I would just be overwhelmed. I just knew that this year I really had to step up every game. I knew I had to be more of a leader vocally.
So as far as expectations, people saying Big 12 Player of the Year and all that, I didn't really get caught up in it at all. It's really great to be recognized, but I definitely didn't get caught up in it. More so, my eyes gleam up at Big 12 champions or something like that. The attention has taken some getting used to.
Like signing autographs. In high school, it was something
that you just sort of sat down and tripped off of. I'd sign blank pieces of paper with my name and try and get the best signature. And now to actually be there and have little girls look up to you and asking for your autograph. It doesn't bother me at all because it's great that they can have people they can look up to, and I just take advantage of it. It's a great moment.
The balance between school is hard. Going to class and then basketball gets tiring. A lot of times you have tests when you're on the road. But we try not to find any excuses. We don't want any leeway because we're athletes.
We really haven't focused too much on Coach's 500th win because she hasn't talked about it that much. But I think during the game, we'll all come together and say 'Look, let's do this for Coach.' And then everybody will click in and realize that we need to do this and will give it their all to get her the 500th win.
I don't know what it will be like after we win. We have to do something. Everybody will definitely congratulate her first. I think we'll just be so happy for her, we'll just give her a hug. We won't dump Gatorade on her or anything like that, not on her $500 suit. We can't do that, but we'll do something special.

right now," Fennelly said. "They've won six in a row, and obviously, they're very good at home. It's going to be a tremendous challenge for our team."
"The challenge with Iowa State is they have bona fide scorers." Washington said. "They have players on the perimeter that can really knock it down, so that's going to stretch our defense a bit."
Those outside threats are junior guard Stacy Freese and sophomore guard Megan Taylor, who are first and fourth in the Big 12 in three-point field goals per game respectively.
An offensive change for the Jayhawks since last month's game is that they no longer rely
Despite her team's improved play since the previous matchup, Washington remained cautious about calling her team the favorite in tonight's game.
on junior Lynn Pride to carry the load for Kansas. She led the team in scoring in all but three of its first 21 games, but Brooke Reves and a suddenly-resurgent Nakia Sanford have had team-high-scoring honors in the last four games.
"A mistake a lot of teams have made in the past is to look at Kansas and think that if you stop Lynn Pride then you win the game, and obviously, that's not the case." Fennelly said. "The other players have played well. Sanford has scored more. Reves gives me a dynamic offensive weapon and (Jennifer) Jackson always plays well against us."
The only area in which the Jayhawks have been lacking during their current six-game winning streak has been bench production, but Fennelle said bench scoring probably wouldn't have much of an impact on tonight's game.
"We're not the deepest team in America either," he said. "Bench scoring is an issue only if you don't have front-line players who can score. I don't think it's something that's critical to success, especially when you have a great starting five like they have."
What remains an issue, and at the forefront of her players' minds, is the possibility of Washington's historic win.
"I think it means a lot to us to get it for her," Reves said. "She definitely deserves it. It's going to be a big game for us because of that."
Fennelly said he realized the milestone victory would have on Kansas' play.
"I'm sure they're very motivated. They see the end of the season, and they're playing for a conference championship. I think playing for coach Washington's 500th win is just another thing to add to that."

BIG 12 CONFERENCE
Cowboys lacking team confidence
Oklahoma State may not qualify for NCAA tournament
The Associated Press
KANASAS CITY. Mo. — With four starters back from a 29-2 team, Oklahoma State was the obvious preseason pick in the Big 12.
Instead, heading into the last two weeks of the season the Cowboys are a mediocre 16-7 overall and 7-4 in the conference. They'll take a three-game losing streak into Nebraska tomorrow night and could be
in danger of missing the NCAA tournament.
"I've been a lot more confident with some of the teams I've brought into Lincoln in the past," said coach Eddie Sutton. "When you lose three in a row, you lose some of your confidence."
Perhaps the preseason prognosticators did not realize how much the Cowboys would miss Brett Robisch, their 6-foot-11 center who averaged more than 15 points and nine rebounds last year as a senior.
"I've said this from the beginning — the biggest question mark would be how we respond inside," Sutton said. "The loss of Robisch was a big one. Some of our people haven't stepped forward. When you don't have an inside threat, everybody is pushed hard on the perimeter. Plus, we aren't as tough inside as we were with Robisch."
After Sunday's 73-68 loss at home to front-running Texas, Oklahoma State guard Doug Gottlieb criticized his teammates for what he termed a lack of toughness. Sutton did not disagree and hoped Gottlieb might fire up the Cowboys.
"That's all you can hope for," Sutton said. "We have wonderful young men. But sometimes maybe they're not as tough as we'd like for them to be. Without that toughness, it's very difficult for us. I don't think our players are going to quit. Other teams had better understand we're going to get out there and try to win games."
Missouri at home, then go to defending champion Kansas before finishing at home against Texas Tech.
The Cowboys don't exactly have a soft schedule these last two weeks. They're at Nebraska, then play
Texas is atop the Big 12 with a 10-2 mark, followed by a three-way tie for second at 9-3 between Missouri, Oklahoma and Nebraska going into Monday night's Oklahoma-Missouri match up.
"We're playing three of the best teams in the league," Sutton said. "We're going to have to play better than we've been playing."
But Texas coach Rick Barnes said he was determined not to let anybody tell his players they were in the driver's seat.
"I don't think our players are going to quit. Other teams had better understand we're going to get out there and try to win games."
Eddie Sutton Oklahoma State coach
"If you think you
you're ever in the driver's seat, you can get ejected real quick," Barnes said. "Right now the Big 12 might be the most competitive basketball league in the country. I think we're in a good position, and we've worked to get ourselves there. Now what we've got to see is what we can do with it."
The Big 12 player of the week, to the surprise of no one, is Texas Tech guard Rayford Young, who scored 41 points in leading the Red Raiders to a come-from-behind victory against Kansas on Saturday. Young, who has been hobbled by an injured ankle much of the year, scored 35 points in the second half.
"Under 10 minutes, we were down by 14 and I said to myself, 'We can't lose this game. We've played too hard,'" Young said. "I started shooting the ball. I guess I caught fire, and I could have hit anything."
Young's drive and the crowd's sudden enthusiasm seemed to begin at the same time security guards kicked one of Texas Tech's male cheerleaders out of the arena. But Red Raiders coach James Dickey did not attach much importance to the cheerleader.
"I don't know if that inspired the crowd as much as Rayford hitting the 3's and us making the run," Dickey said. "Both of them occurred around the same time. To me, that was a little overplayed as far as what happened on the court."
Marv Albert signs broadcast contract with Turner Sports
Sportscast veteran returns to business after 20-game layoff
The Associated Press
Albert is returning to national prominence, agreeing yesterday to a multiyear contract with Turner Sports to broadcast NBA games and other sports.
NEW YORK — The local fans already have welcomed back Marv Albert. Now he'll see if the reception is any different around the country.
Albert, fired by NBC in 1997 after pleading guilty to biting a woman during a sexual encounter in a Virginia hotel room, is scheduled to make his debut on TNT's broadcast of the Los Angeles Lakers game on April 2 at Phoenix.
He has fulfilled the terms of his probation, and his record has been cleared.
"Everyone has been so favorable in New York at the games and walking on the street," Albert said at a news conference in Madison Square Garden. "I just hope it continues, and people continue to react that way, but it's out of my control."
Albert worked his first NBA game in nearly 20 months on Feb. 8, when he called the Knicks home opener on radio for the Madison Square Garden Network.
Fans lined up for autograph and voiced their support fo Albert's return.
"In the darkest hours, I had no idea what would unfold in my life," Albert said. "But I had to get past that. A year ago I was just wondering if I'd get back, but I think everything has turned out well in the long run when you look at my life."
He will work six regular-season games this season for Turner with analyst Reggie Theus, then will be placed in the regular announcing rotation during the postseason.
Albert may be paired with different partners during the post-season.
"The hiring is a step in the right direction for Marv to make
a strong comeback," said Turner analyst and former NBA coach Hubie Brown. "It also adds another quality announcer to our stable of people. The way people should look at it is that Turner is giving him a chance."
Beginning next season, Albert will become a full-time member of the Turner on-air staff, announcing a full slate of about 25 regular-season games.
"We feel that Marv is one of the top play-by-play announcers in the business," Turner Sports executive producer Mike Pearl said. "The concerns we had were that he was taking care of himself on a personal note. We have
the confidence in our decision"
decision."
Most of Albert's games on Turner this season will come on Friday nights on TNT in order to accommodate his obligations

with Madison Square Garden, which will continue.
"I'm so happy with this situation," Albert said. "I don't know what's in store down the road. I'm just so thrilled to be doing NBA on national basis."
Albert returned to Madison Square Garden in September as a weeknight anchor on its wrap-up show, SportsDesk. Besides NBA games, he also may work boxing for Turner along with the 2001 Goodwill Games and possibly the pro football league Turner and NBC are planning to launch.
Albert's last national telecast was the NBA Finals in 1997 with NBC, where he worked for 20 years. Later that year, after the trial, he was fired by NBC and resigned from the MSG Network.
"It will be great to see Marv return to television and work in the sport he loves," NBC spokesman Ed Markey said. "We're happy to have him back as part of the NBA family."

Students lobby state capitol for financial aid increase
Student lobbyists at the state capitol yesterday received positive reactions to their requests for a $2 million increase in student financial aid but were disappointed by state legislators' hesitance in endorsing a 7.6 percent increase in faculty salaries.
Heather Yates, Student Legislative Awareness Board lobbying coordinator, said student senators and SLAB representatives were not able to speak to all of the state legislators they wanted to because the Kansas House of Representatives was in session. However, she said the meetings they attended still were productive.
"At least we got our say in," Yates said. "We had a chance to speak out, and they heard us. Now the prominent leadership in the House and the Senate knows the issues and where we stand."
Yates said that student lobbyists probably would end up settling for a lower increase in faculty salaries but that legislators paid a lot of attention to increasing financial aid.
"It makes it real when a legislator has a bunch of students in their office who are on the other end of the process," she said.
Erin Simpson, SLAB research director, said student lobbyists tried to convince legislators that universities deserved a significant portion of state funds.
"We're requesting a lot of money, so it's a hard sell," she said. "We're competing with a lot of other issues such as welfare and tax cuts." Kevin Yoder, student body president and SLAB chief lobbyist, said legislators understood the importance of financing higher education. He said he thought the key issue was to keep tuition affordable.
"It if the legislature increases funding, it is very realistic that there will not be a tuition increase except for inflation," Yoder said.
Representative Troy Findley, D-Lawrence, said he supported faculty salary and financial aid increases. But he said the vote would
Controversy surrounds start of Heidegger lecture series
See FACULTY on page 3A
By Chris Hopkins
Konson staff writer
Shakespeare wrote in *Romeo and Juliet* that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
Walter Johnson, professor of East Asian languages and culture, however, said the Heidegger Lecture Series would smell a whole lot sweeter with a new namesake.
"I don't object to what people choose to teach, but I object to what Heijdeger was and to what he did," Johnson said.
He said that by naming the lecture series after Martin Heidegger, a Nazi party member from 1932 to 1945, the philosophy department was celebrating him.
A. C. Genova, chairman of the philosophy department, said the lecture simply would address Heidegger's philosophical thought.
"This business of a celebration, it's nutty," he said.
Johnson, who teaches a class in Chinese thought for both his department and the department of philosophy, said naming an event after someone usually meant honoring them.
Genova said he that had heard Johnson's argument had been much harsher and that Johnson might be backpedaling.
"To name a lecture after Martin Heidegger, as you would Eisenhower or Truman, is an insult to everyone," Johnson said.
"I'm sorry, but I think it's getting to the point now that it's just a matter of semantics." Genova said.
Johnson denied that he wanted to end the lectures and said that changing the name had been his goal from the beginning.
The lecture series is tied into a graduate-level philosophy class called Heidegger and the Greeks.
The first lecture will be presented by John Haugeland, a professor of philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh, on March 10. Advertisements displaying the controversial name began going up on campus recently.
Richard Buck, a doctoral candidate in philosophy, said the lecture series had been around since he had arrived at the University of Kansas eight years ago. He said because the subject was different every year, the department had to tell the campus what it's about.
He said because he was Jewish and a member of the Board of Directors for the KU Hillel Foundation, he could not ignore what Heidegger did, but at the same time he recognized his importance.
"This is not in honor of him or named after him," Buck said.
"There's really no way to justify eliminating him from the curriculum." Buck said.
Johnson said he thought that honoring Heidegger's contributions to philosophy, while at the same time decrying his Nazism, was a part of a continuing trend of compartmentalizing World War II.
Trying to separate the small amount of good from the great amount of evil of the Nazi government in Germany only serves to mask the evils, Johnson said. He said it worked the same way with each individual Nazi.
Johnson said that while he personally found Heidegger despicable, he wouldn't try to get teachers to change their curriculum to remove him. He said the only change he desired was for the name of the speeches to be changed.
Genova said he didn't think that there was another name that would work for the lecture series.
Johnson said if the University would choose not to attach a name to the lecture series at all, that would be fine with him.
"If that's his suggestion, I would ask him what he would call it if it's on Heidegger," he said. "What would you name it other than what it is?"
Kurdish rebel capture triggers hostage seizures
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
Kurdis across Europe seized Greek embassies and took hostages yesterday after Turkish officials captured Abdullah Ocalan, a Kurdish rebel who led a 14-year guerrilla war for Kurdish autonomy from Turkey.
After Ocaian's capture, Turkish officials claimed victory against the rebel movement. The conflict has left 37,000 people dead and relations with neighboring countries tense.
"It a bad situation," said Elena Dollopis, a recent KU graduate from Macedonia, Greece. "I don't know how this will develop later. I honestly don't know."
Ocalan is being held on the tiny island of Imrali in the Marmara Sea, according to Turkey's private ATV television.
Kurds, however, enraged by the arrest of Ocalan, accused Greece of allowing Ocalan to be taken out of hiding from the Greek Embassy in Kenya and transported to Turkey.
The Kurds make up 20 percent of Turkey's population.
Kurdish protesters reacted by occupying Greek embassies and consulates in at least 21 European cities, as well as a consulate in Vancouver, Canada. In the Hague, Netherlands, the occupation of the Greek ambassador's residence finished and all three hostages were released unharmed early today.
In Istanbul, about 1,000 Kurds set cars on fire in a Kurdish neighborhood.
Greece said it it was not involved in Ocalan's capture, saying Ocalan left the emboly voluntary.
However, lawyers working for Ocalan said he was dragged from the compound by Kenyan
security agents and forced to board a plane to Turkey.

Tugberk Emirzade, Lefkosha, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus senior, said he viewed Turkey's custody of Ocalan as a relief from a marauding terrorist.
"I was really glad to hear that he was finally caught," Emirzade said. "At least now they can stop him from controlling his terrorist groups. For many years he has been attacking villages, tourist buses and touristic places just to give Turkey a bad reputation."
"Things happen every single day at the border at Greece and Turkey, and nobody knows about it." Dollopis said. "Every time it gets worse. It's been for centuries now, and they won't leave us alone."
Husey in Sevay, Minarelikiy, Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus graduate student, agreed
that Ocalan's capture was fortunate.
"I think it's a definitely a positive development. The reason is that he leads a terrorist organization."
Although Sevay didn't condone the way the Kurds had been treated in Turkey, he did not think terrorism was justified.
Furthermore, Turkey is made up of many different types of people, Sevay said. If every group of people revolted from Turkey, there would be no point in having a country.
"The solution is really more economic than political." he said.
Kurds need to be given better opportunities to improve their lives such as better educational services, Sevay said.

Former congressmen call for more cooperation
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
After a round of handshakes and smiles, two former members of Congress told student political groups yesterday that today's representatives were in danger of losing touch with each other and with average people.
"The personal side of Congress is really important," former Rep. Lou Frey, R.Fla., said to about 15 members of KU Young Democrats and College Republicans at the Kansas Union. "But now they have to schedule seminars to get members to talk to each other."
Frey and former Rep. Jim Lloyd, D-Callif, are visiting the University of Kansas this week to offer their expertise in political science classes and discuss the merits of public service with students. They served in Congress in the 1970s.
In an informal question-and-answer session with the Young Democrats and College Republicans, Frey and Lloyd discussed the problems of partisanship, term limits and soft money.
Frey and Lloyd agreed that the camaraderie of Congress, which crossed party lines in the '70s, was disappearing. Frey, a Republican, said he used to play racquetball with the Democratic chairman of an influential committee.
"If I introduced a bill, at least he'd give me a hearing before he killed it," Frev said.
Frey and Lloyd said part of the reason that representatives had less time for friendship and respect was the
push for term limits, which some states have imposed.
"Soft money totally eliminates the impact of John Q. Citizen," Lloyd said.
"They come in on a mission, and it's a suicide mission if they're right or left of the center." Frey said.
The former congressmen also expressed concern about the role of soft money, funds from corporations and organizations that skirt campaign spending limits, in political campaigns.
Both Frey and Lloyd also said contact with their constituents was a major part of their jobs. Frey used to mail letters and cookbooks to people in his district on special occasions such as birthdays and anniversaries. Lloyd made it a rule to answer mail immediately.
Burdett Loomis, interim director of the Dole Institute for Public Service and Public Policy, said prioritizing that kind of contact was a dying tradition.
"I defy you to find someone in your districts who does what these two have done." Loomis said to the students. "Vince Snowbarger did not work hard enough at this. He did either of those things, he might still be in office."
Ward Cook, Mission Hills senior and chairman of the College Republicans, said he was interested in Frey and Lloyd's comments because they were no longer in Congress.
"To often we hear the rhetoric and hogwash," he said. "I wanted to hear an honest opinion of how Congress really is."

Abortion groups agree new bill is a bad idea
TOPEKA — Abortion opponents and abortion rights supporters both told a House committee Monday that a bill requiring minors to obtain parental consent to obtain an abortion was a bad idea
the House Federal and State Affairs Committee is considering a bill requiring females younger than 18 wanting to have abortions to get written consent from at least one parent or guardian.
Cleta Renyer of Right to Life of Kansas said parents should not be able to grant consent to abortions.
Supporters of the bill, including Kansans for Life, the state's largest anti-abortion organization, were to testify later.
Under current law, a minor's physician must notify at least one parent before performing an abortion, but parental consent is not required. The bill would repeal the section of law on parental notification and replace it with the new language on consent.
The bill, requested by Rep. Becky Hutchins, R-Holton, would permit abortions without parental consent when the procedure is necessary to save the girl's life and when there is not enough time to obtain consent. Minors who are married or not under parental custody would be exempt from the consent requirement, as well.
In addition, the bill would allow a district court judge to authorize an abortion without parental consent.
Cigarette, gunpowder cause teens' fiery crash
LEAVENWORTH — Two teen-agers were critically injured in a fiery crash after a cigarette apparently ignited gunpowder that the youths were handling inside a pickup truck, officials said.
The incident happened about 4 p.m. Monday on a gravel road near Pleasant Ridge High School where the teens attended, said Sgt. John Kirby of the Leav enworth County Sheriff's Department.
Brad Seever, 18, and a passenger, Matthew Herken, 15, were traveling near the school when cigarettes apparently been smoked inside the truck ignited the gunpowder, Kirby said. Seever and Herken were the only people inside the vehicle.
Both victims were listed in critical condition yesterday in the burn unit at the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan.

North Korean missiles could hit United States

TOKYO — Japan's Defense Agency said yesterday that North Korea has the technology to launch a long-range ballistic missile capable of reaching parts of the United States, according to Japanese news reports.
North Korea has made significant progress in developing its Teapodong-2 liquid-fuel missiles, Japan's semigovernment television network NHK quoted unidentified Japanese defense sources as saving.
Taepodong 2 is believed to be capable of carrying heavy payloads to Hawaii and Alaska and lighter-weight weapons to parts of the U.S. mainland
NHK said Japanese defense officials confirmed North Korea's capability to launch a long-range missile.
Agency representative Kazushi Tanaka said the agency would not comment because of security reasons.
U. S. gives Milosevic peace deal ultimatum
RAMBOUILLET, France — The top U.S. mediator at the Kosovo peace talks flew to Serbia yesterday with an ultimatum for Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic: Agree to a U.S.-backed deal or else.
Secretary of State Madeleine Albright phoned Milosevic from Washington yesterday and told him that the ethnic Albanians appear ready to sign an agreement, according to spokesman James P. Rubin. He said Albright expected Milosevic to sign the deal as well.
Christopher Hill, the U.S. ambassador to Macedonia, met with Milosevic last night. Western sources at the talks in France said Hill was expected to tell Milosevic that if he didn't accept an agreement by noon Saturday, he would suffer NATO air strikes.
Sources close to the talks, speaking on condition of anonymity, said there was little actual negotiating going on. Delegates, rather, only were making minor changes to a largely take-it-or-leave-it American deal.

American Airlines may offer bargains to angry customers
The Associated Press
DALLAS — With operations getting back to normal at American Airlines, the nation's second-largest airline is expected to offer bargains to win back passengers alienated by the pilots' sickout
The sickout forced the cancellation of more than 6,000 flights on 10 days and messed up the travel plans of about 600,000 passengers.
Experts said yesterday that because of high demand for seats, travelers shouldn't expect big fare cuts. Instead, Randy Petersen, publisher of InsideFlyer frequent-flyer magazine, said he expected the airline to use frequent-flyer miles as an apology.
"I don't think we're going to see a lot of big fare slashes. American is more conservative. They don't like to do things everyone else would match," he said.
John Hotard, a spokesman for American Airlines' parent company, AMR Corp., would not comment on whether there would be a fare sale.
The bargains are aimed at people such as Tamara Martin, who returned home to Miami from Puerto Rico yesterday on a United Airlines flight. She was supposed to
fly home on Monday via American Airlines.
AmericanAirlines
"I really doubt I would ever fly American again," Martin said. "I
know it will be an inconvenience to myself, and it probably wouldn't make a difference to their business, but I think I owe it to myself to stop flying American after what we've been through."
Meanwhile, the pilots obeyed a federal judge's order and placed $10 million, or one quarter of the union's assets, with the court. The money will go toward a fine that is expected to be levied against the union at a hearing today for defying a back-to-work order.
To appease travel agents who have been overwhelmed by the turmoil, American Airlines decided Monday to pay commissions for tickets that were later refunded because of the sickout. Commissions are not usually paid in such cases.

Students offer input on alcohol abuse
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Representatives from student organizations discussed options for improving methods of preventing alcohol abuse yesterday
At a discussion led by David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, eight students from student organizations such as Student Union Activities, the Association of University Residence Halls and Greek organizations debated how to prevent underage drinking and alcohol abuse.
Josh Burdette, AURH representative and Belle Plaine senior, said students drank because other students were doing the same
thing.
"The they have heard all the doomsday stories, but when there is a set norm, people start migrating towards that," he said.
Ambler said the University was going to try to educate students more effectively.
Ambler said he would offer challenge grants to student organizations that devised ideas for nonalcoholic activities by matching funds through the Coke contract.
Courtney Rowland, Alpha Delta Pi sorority social chairwoman and Wichita sophomore, said there weren't enough alcohol-free weekend options for students.
"You've got to show that not everybody does it," Ambler said. "Just like sex, this generation did not invent alcohol."
He said he wanted students to vote for a new recreation center on campus so that students would have an alternative for social activities.
kevin Tuttle, Watkins Memorial Health Center peer health educator and Leawood senior, said the best way to prevent alcohol abuse was through education.
"If people truly understand what excessive alcohol does to their bodies, that would be a good way
"If students see that we can have something better than Robinson Gym, it would really mushroom," Ambler said.

Public hearing may pave way for Lawrence bicycle paths
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
Creating a core of interconnected bicycle paths should be the focus of efforts to make Lawrence a more bicycle-friendly city, a consultant of Transportation Systems Inc. said last night at a public hearing in the Kansas Union.
The hearing was scheduled to present the results of a $24,000 study commissioned by the city to establish the feasibility of adding bike paths to 11 designated roads.
Mark Kenneally, an engineer with Transportation Systems Inc. of Kansas City, Mo., presented the study's findings to a group of 23 people, which included students, city officials and Lawrence residents.
Brandon Deines, Hoxie sophomore, said he came to the meeting because it was an issue that affected him.
"I live at Sunrise Village on West Sixth Street," he said. "I'd like to ride to school, but unless I ride at low traffic times, it's not feasible."
The roadways under consideration are Naismith Drive, Louisiana, Vermont, Connecticut, Tennessee, Kentucky, West Sixth, West Ninth, 11th, 15th and 19th streets.
The results Kenneally presented were a compilation of public response and a bicycle compatibility index study. The BCI rating of
a road reflects factors such as traffic volume, lane width and traffic speed.
Kenneally said it was important to consider that they were using a "retro-fit" framework. This means that changes to the road to accommodate bike paths couldn't necessitate the widening or repaving of roads.
He said the purpose of the study was to look at specific streets, consider the options and develop a checklist of criteria for considering other roads in the future.
This is the third public hearing related to the issue of making Lawrence safer and more accessible for cyclists. The public response results presented last night were gathered from the first public hearing and response boxes placed at various sites around the city.
Clay Comfort, chairman of the Lawrence City Commission's bicycle advisory committee, said it had received 346 responses. Only 92 of those responses were calculated in last night's presentation. The committee will be compiling the remaining responses before it presents the study results to the City Commission in late April.
Commissioners will ask questions and discuss the study results at the April meeting. The public can attend, but no public comment will be heard.
The meeting will take place after the April 6 City Commission election.

depend on the amount of tax cuts and how much money the state allocated to a transportation program.
"It is difficult to accomplish a lot within the current budget scenario." Findley said. "I have a great concern for faculty salaries, but there are a lot of variables."
korb Maxwell, SLAB legislative director, said that a 7.5 percent increase in faculty salaries was too much for many legislators and that only 60 percent favored an increase. But he said he thought student lobbyists were successful in lobbying for increased financial aid.
Representative David Adkins, R-Leawood, said he would vote for anything if it benefited the University of Kansas. He said that there would be more money available for state-based financial aid this year but that he was concerned about funding for technology.
Adkins said many legislators had the impression that faculty members were overpaid and underworked.
Adkins said he was glad to see student lobbyists in the capitol because it was easy to vote against legislation that would benefit students when legislators did not personally know any students.
"It says a lot when students are saying that the quality of the faculty means something," he said. "Few, if any, legislators understand why it is important to maintain good faculty."
"Symbolism and perception is something we all vote on," he said.

Lottery yields fair, creative way to distribute spaces in new garage
The parking garage that will be built next to the Kansas Union will add more than 800 spaces of indoor parking for faculty, staff and students. The decision about who will be allowed to park in the coveted spaces should be made now.
The distribution of these new spaces should be different from other KU parking lots. Everyone should have an equal chance to use the new garage. Equality in parking needs to be the theme when it is time to sell the permits. This can be achieved through a parking-garage lottery.
The parking department has no plans now for distributing the new spaces. A lottery would allow faculty, staff and students who want to
Faculty, staff and students deserve an equal opportunity to use the 800 new spaces.
park in the garage an equal chance to win a spot.
Students could choose to be included in the lottery when filling out their options form at enrollment. Winners of the garage permits also would be able to park in other lots in their respective sections.
A few considerations must be taken before initiating a lottery. First, the parking department must determine the ratio of faculty and staff to students who park on campus so that a proportionate number of spaces fairly can be distributed.
Next, overflow from the parking garage must be limited so that those who win actually will enjoy their award. Because visitors have many parking options, the number of metered spaces should be limited.
Finally, those with student housing permits should not be allowed into the lottery, because they already have access to on- or near-campus parking.
A parking-garage lottery would be a fair and creative way to distribute the new, more convenient parking spaces. KU parking should consider implementing such a lottery and bringing equality to the daily parking struggle.

Local elections require student votes
Before voting for the city commission primary election culminates on March 2, all students registered to vote in Douglas County need to get out and vote.
Feb. 10 was the first day of advanced voting in this year's Lawrence City Commission elections. In past elections, especially city commission elections, student-voter turnout has been horrible. Only 12 percent of registered voters showed up last November to vote at the Allen Fieldhouse polling site. Turnout was so poor that the site will be closed by the county.
Students comprise the economic and social backbone of the Lawrence community. According to Tom Moore, Student Legislative Awareness Board campus director, students
Young voters can use advance voting option when voting for city commission candidates.
also are the most under-represented group in Lawrence. Student opinion carries less weight because elected officials know that students do not vote.
Many issues raised by the city commission this year have generated student interest. Early closing times for The Wheel Cafe and The Hawk, public transportation, bike lanes, Saferide funding and the citywide alcohol task force recommendations all directly affect the lives of students and are decided on by the Lawrence
city commission. If students want the commission to take their concerns about these issues seriously, then students need to vote in city commission elections.
It is easy to vote in Lawrence. There is no excuse for not voting. People who cannot make it to the polls March 2 should take advantage of the mail ballot or the advance voting option.
Students need to inform themselves about the candidates and vote. There are three ways for students to cast a ballot. Advanced voting is available weekdays at the county commissioners office in the courthouse. Absentee, or mail, ballots may be obtained by requesting them from the county commissioner. And polls will be open for the primary election on March 2.

Perspective
Teen drinking demands discussion of penalties
America's attitude toward kids and alcohol is dead wrong. Most parents throw a fit if they smell booze in their kid's breath, and school boards consistently enforce zero-tolerance policies with regard to alcohol.
Robert K.
Funk
opinion @ kansan.com
PETER SMITH
Thanks to this "ostrich approach," we have serious problems with kids and alcohol in our society. It's time to reassess the situation.
Even when kids leave home, the mentality stays with them. You can sp them at the bar. They're the ones who drift way too much way too fast, then jump in their cars. There are reasons they turn out that way.
The legislatures contribute to the ostrh approach. Until youths turn 21, alcoh absolutely is forbidden to kids.
Even when they turn 18 and are consi ered adults for most purposes, they st can't have a beer. They go to college ar face all the trials and tribulations that with it, but they can't have a beer. They can get married and have children, but the can't have a beer. They can smoke cig rettes until their lungs turn black, but the can't have a beer. They can join the military and die in battle, but they can't have beer. They can be tried as adults and give the death sentence, but they can't have beer.
When you're a teenager, anytime a figure of authority tells you unconditionally that you can't do something, your first impulse often is to rush out and do it.
If really is ridiculous, and I like to thin that we're smarter than that. Whether parents drink, they have to talk with their kid about alcohol. Talking more the just saying, "Alcohol is bad — don't drink
When parents take an unyielding stance toward alcohol in the home, many kids turn their cars into taverns on wheels. It goes hand in hand with "dragging Main," that strange social ritual where kids drive up and down a certain street in town for hours at a time. If no one is around or the cops are being too vigilant, there are always the country roads. While there is less traffic in the country, many kids take this as a license to play Dukes of Hazzard, often with tragic results.
When consumed appropriately, alcohol can be a nice way to relax and a valuable social lubricant. Talk to children about dangers that they can relate to such doing stupid things that you later regret hangovers, weight gain, etc. Save the our right prohibition for drinking and driving. Make the kids pay for their own insurance and stipulate that if they get a DUI, the have to pay for it themselves. That's $500 front, plus a quadrupling of insurance for three years. Have people that the kid respect, people who have lost friends or family, relate their experiences to them.
The challenge is to make the risk see real to kids at an age when they think the are invincible.
It's time for parents to pull their heads or of the sand and start doing the tough, practical things that will save their kids' lives
The obvious, short-term costs of this approach are countless wrecks, kids in wheelchairs and kids in graves. The really sad thing is how quickly the lessons of our peers are forgotten.
A friend of mine was a pallbearer at the funeral of a mutual friend who had just died in an alcohol-related accident. Not long after, the pallbearer was involved in an alcohol-related accident and ended up in a halo brace. Not long after his accident, I went to see how he was doing. Still in the halo, he was drinking beer, and he asked if I wanted to go ride beer — true story. This wasn't a bad person. He was just a reflection of his environment.
There also are lingering problems for those who don't fall prey to the early hazards. When parents prohibit alcohol unconditionally, kids learn to see drinking as something of a rebellious challenge. They learn to find the strongest stuff available
and they learn to drink it quickly. Drinkin and driving is a part of this beginning a is later accepted as routine.

Starving writers blame mothers for misfortune
I can't totally explain how I pulled this off, but I think my entire family doesn't want to speak with me on the phone anymore.
PETER MELVIN
My sister's problem is kind of understandable. Through a simple accident of fate, I ended up getting to know her roommate pretty well during LeaderShape. Now I'm calling the room to talk to people other than my sister, and she doesn't really care for that. It's especially touchy when I call for her roommate, and my sister answers the phone. I try my best to make

conversation. It's not that hard because she is my sister, but when I finally ask to speak with her roommate, she says, in her most bile-laden voice, "I KNEW that was coming."
I take total responsibility for my mom's reluctance to talk to me. For one thing, I haven't been the most dutiful son in the world when it comes to calling home.
As a freshman, I'd call home sometimes hourly. Usually, without a good reason. I just was homeschied and petrified that this finally was the level at which my B.S. would help me no more. Right now, the level when that happens probably will be about 40 years after being a tenured professor.
Now, I call home bimonthly, if that. That, in and of itself, isn't the most heinous thing, but each and every conversation begins the exact same way — "Why didn't you do what you were supposed to do as a parent and crush my spirits?"
As I get ever closer to my graduation from college and therefore the end of my childhood, I get progressively more and more panicky. I'll have degrees in journalism and English. These are two of the most useless degrees from the University of Kansas, but I'm afraid that by saying that people will infer that there are degrees more useless.
So, rushing headlong toward begging in the streets and hanging my diplomas on the wall of my cardboard box, I try to figure out where it went wrong. Now, as any good American would, I refuse to take responsibility for my own actions, so instead I blame my mother. My reasoning isn't as
A
Mom's mostly right. Only the one thing want to do more than write and entertain not starve. The most effective way to not starve as a writer of my caliber is to total forgo writing and enter some facet of the sex industry.
totally off as you'd think.
So essentially our conversations go lil that. After blaming my life on her, I the ask for an update on the family member I'm most concerned about: Sparky the Wonder Cat. When we're done with that, we're fiished for the month. It's just a waitin' game for the next month's anxiety attar before calling home again.
See, if my mom had crushed my creative spirit when I was younger, like she should have, I wouldn't have this need to write a perform or do whatever other wack things. With no sense of art in my life, I easily could have moved into some field where they actually pay you for working, such as engineering. However, because my mo, encouraged my imagination and allows me to be creative, now I'm a journalism an English major who wants to be a writer he more likely will end up selling blood to bu dog food.
This system works out pretty well although I'd assume that Mom would rather hear about what a lovely time I'm having, the University, then tell me about som non-feline member of the family and the talk to me again in another week.
Now every time I talk to my mom, we an up getting into this argument. Mom takes in stride. Let's face it, she's dealt with m for 21 years, so by now she understands m patterns. She calmly listens to my ram and then says, "Well, Nicholas, if you real wanted to be an engineer, that's what you would have done, but instead you're learning more about what you enjoy."
Because of this, I assumed that Mom would prefer to go without the monthly argument. I didn't feel like complaining; so I didn't call. When Mom didn't get the call she actually e-mailed my sister to ask if had totally dropped off the face of the planet.
My sister took it in stride. She told Mo she couldn't prove I still was going to classes, but I was at least still living in m scholarship hall room. After all, I still was leaving the same phone number for her roommate to call me back.

Mass. St. McDonald's closing
Downtown eatery will be replaced by Mexican grill
By Heather Woodward
Kanson staff writer
McDonald's, home of the all-beef patty and special sauce, is closing its 911 Massachusetts St. location for good on Saturday. Chippele Mexican Grill, a Denver-based restaurant chain, will take its place and is expected to open in Mav.
With up to 65 percent of customers using the drive-through window instead of going into the restaurant, McDonald's was at a disadvantage on Massachusetts Street from the start, said Marilyn Dobski, of franchisee Dobski and Associates.
"We're closing it after many long hours of deliberation," Dobski said. "We do regret it, but we had to do it because of lower than expected traffic flow to this location."
McDonald's opened on Massachusetts Street in 1995. Dobski has four other McDonald's locations in Lawrence and eight other locations in Kansas. Dobski said she had until March 1 to vacate the restaurant.
The McDonald's on Massachusetts employs 15 people, and 12 of them work part-time.
"No one's going to lose a job," Dobski said. "Everyone has been offered alternate employment."
Chipotle is just one of many restaurants that offer Mexican food at low prices to open on Massachusetts Street in the past year, including New York Burrito Gourmet Wraps, 939 Massachusetts St., and Z-Teca Mexican Grill, 743 Massachusetts St.
Mike Appleby, a cook at Coco Loco Mexican Cafe, 943 Massachusetts St. said he would miss McDonald's. "There are so many Mexican places on Massachusetts Street already," said Appleby, Shawnee freshman. "One more is just going
to flood the area. I eat at McDonald's every day on the way to work."
Chipotle was founded in 1993 by Steve Ells, graduate of the Culinary Institute of America. Since then, the company has opened 16 Colorado restaurants and two in Kansas City.
Dan Fogarty, marketing director for Chipotle and 1984 KU graduate, said the company had wanted to open a restaurant in Lawrence for some time but just hadn't found the right location. He said Lawrence was an attractive city because of its student population.
The main menu item at Chipotle is a 1 1/4 pound burrato that customers can have made to their taste for about $5.
"Chippele is very focused on its menu." Fogarty said. "They make everything there in the restaurant."
"The first restaurant we opened was near the University of Denver campus," Fogarty said. "It has been really popular with the students there. It's a good alternative to fast food."
Man arrested for armed robbery
Following an 18-hour stakeout at a local hotel, a 21-year-old Lawrence man was arrested at 12:20 p.m. Monday on suspicion of committing an armed bank robbery, said Sgt. Mack S. Pryor of the Lawrence Police Department.
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
The man was arrested as he was leaving the Comfort Inn, 740 Iowa St., which he had checked into Sunday night.
Police had been investigating the man's connection to the robbery for some time when they received a call from Crimestoppers that confirmed their suspicions.
"He was on a list of possibilities," said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department. "The Crimes停器 tip moved him up the list."
Police had interviewed the man's friends during their investigations. His friends told police that the man wanted to be in a shoot-out with police, Pryor said. The 25 law enforcement agents involved in the stakeout took precautions to avoid
this, he said. The FBI and U.S. Attorney's office also have been involved in the case.
The man was unarmed at the time of his arrest.
The woman refused to give him the money she had withdrawn from the ATM, police said. After struggling get her purse, the man gave up and drove off in a car that police later discovered was stolen.
The getaway car used in the Jan. 19 bank robbery was carjacked in Overland Park and later found abandoned in a parking lot near McCollum Hall.
Police said they had probable cause to believe that the man also robbed a woman at gunpoint at 12:30 p.m. j.m. At 15 emprate Birch, 2435 Iowa St.
When the man checked into the Comfort Inn on Sunday night, he was driving a car that had been reported stolen Friday from the 1800 block of Vermont Street.
Pryor said the man was now in federal custody.
Police have not said how much money was stolen from the bank. Pryor said the police didn't expect to
recover the money because the man said it already had been spent.
The man also told police where he had thrown the weapon used in the robbery, but police haven't recovered it.

Landlords to be scrutinized
A city ordinance currently allows up to four unrelated people to live in a single-family home, but city officials said it was not being enforced on a wide scale.
By Heather Woodward
Some residents said the lack of enforcement caused more parking problems, more trash and a lack of outdoor maintenance.
Kansan staff writer
The Lawrence City Commission decided at last night's meeting to set up a study session to determine what problems landlords are causing and how to enforce better current ordinances.
Sessions are to start after the new commission is elected April 6
City Commission
"I received specific calls about the problem this fall and as recently as last month," said Mike Wildgen, city manager. "The complaints rise out of a lack of care for the property. The standards aren't being up."
The staff report that the commission received last night was a study on other cities that are home to Big 12 Conference schools to see what solutions they had come up with.
Matthew Metheny, a former KU student who attends Johnson County Community College, said his house at 1218 Mississippi St. was on a steep hill that his landlord didn't want tenants to mow.
Tenants said they were concerned that landlords might not be keeping up rental property.
"Our landlord said that he wanted to mow the lawn because it was so steep," he said. "In the year and a half that I've lived here, I've seen our landlord mow the vard two or three times."
Wildgen said many of the complaints he had received had come from residents in the Centennial Neighborhood, which is south of 19th Street on Naismith Drive.
Matthew Geerlings, Lawrence graduate student, owns his home at 2216 Naismith Drive but lives next door to rental property.
"The yards are a little trashier, and the outside appearance of the homes are less than desirable, to say the least," Geerlings said. "There are always beer bottles that seem to end up in my yard. I've ruined a couple lawn mower blades that way."
Marilyn Lynch, property manager for Lynch Rentals and Management, said she thought it was the responsibility of landlords to ensure that properties were kept in good shape.
Cooperative offers experience, work
By Jamie Knodel
By sarrie reeves
Kansas staff writer
A KU housing cooperative at 1614 Kentucky St. provides residents with the opportunity to take on more responsibility than typical housing arrangements.
Residents operate, maintain improve and live in the three-story Victorian house.
Seven KU students are experiencing a living arrangement that is conducive to learning interactive relationship skills.
"Living in the co-op helps you learn communication and organization skills," said Tim Kochanski, co-op resident and Lawrence junior.
Kochanski lives in the house with Hannah Bennett, KU graduate, Gayle Goudy, Shawne senior; Heather Wilkinson, Leavenworth junior; Dennis Ostmeier, Lawrence senior; Beau Baker, Kansas City, Kan; senior; Zach Falin, Lawrence graduate student; and Ryan Anderson, Lawrence junior.
Kochanski said each resident was expected to work five hours every week in the house. This requirement includes cleaning one of the house's eight areas.
"It's a work-sharing project," Kochanski said. "All work to maintain and improve the house is divvied equally among those who live there."
He also said the residents had been working on basic house improvements and on finding a 10-person table.
Marci Francisco, president of the University of Kansas Student Housing Association, said that she thought residents were actively involved in the maintenance of the co-op and that residents felt some sense of ownership and responsibility.
"Students actually have some control in their living situations," Francisco said.
Kochanski said co-op living was not as expensive as other housing alternatives. He said rent, including utilities, raned from $190 to $250 a month.
"Co-op residents are willing to trade work and responsibility with the cost of living," Francisco said.
Kochanski also said that if the co-op's expenses were less than the budget, all residents would be refunded.
Francisco said cooperative living attracted resourceful and independent people.
"People who want to have a chance to learn how to cooperate with others are often interested," Francisco said.
Residents said there were codes they were expected to follow. They are expected to participate in a fair share of work, maintain community property for use by others, treat others with respect and support the survival of the cooperative.
"It'll all fairly fair now, so we are still forming rules." Kochanski said.
The co-op at 1614 Kentucky St. began last August. The property is owned by the University of Kansas Student Housing Association. This group is not affiliated with the University of Kansas Department of Student Housing.
In recent years, Sunflower House has had to turn away applicants because of capacity limitations
The University of Kansas Student Housing Association also owns the Sunflower House, a cooperative house at 1406 Tennessee St.
Francisco said this caused the group to see a need to create more cooperative living space.
Sunflower house has 31 bedrooms, while the Kentucky Street co-op only can house eight people.
Senate vote may raise student fees for extra aid
3y Nadia Mustafa
Sansan staff writer
Student Senate will vote on a $2 student fee increase at 6:30 tonight at the Big 12 Room in the Kansas Union.
The Senate Finance Committee passed the increase last week through a bill that would designate the extra funds to the Educational Opportunity Fee, which gives student organizations and academic departments financial aid.
Nicole Skalla, Senate transportation coordinator and the bill's sponsor, said that some senators were weary about increasing student fees but that she did not think $2 was an unreasonable amount.
"I don't think the bill will have too much trouble passing." Skalla said. "The money is for such a good cause because it goes to valid organizations for valid reasons."
If Senate passes the bill, it must be approved by the Chancellor and the Board of Regents for the fee increase to go into effect.
Also at tonight's meeting, Michael Haines of Northern Illinois University will discuss his philosophy on the prevention of alcohol abuse and how he thinks the university of Kansas should spend its $450,000 grant from the Kansas Health Foundation to fight underage drinking.
David Ambler, vice chancellor of student affairs, said Haines had good ideas about preventing alcohol abuse by students.
"I think he's onto something," he said. "He's got the figures to back up what he's saying."
WTW architects also will present their preliminary suggestions for renovations to the Kansas Union.

Downtown museum display documents poet's childhood
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
When Langston Hughes, godfather of the Harlem Renaissance, was in seventh grade, his teacher made him sit in the back row with the other African-American children.
Although the superintendent expelled him, years later Hughes led the intense creativity movement that filled Harlem in the years after World War II.
Hughes, who was then living in Lawrence, placed a sign on his desk that read, "Jim Crow Row."
A current display at Watkins Community Museum of History, 1047 Massachusetts St., documents Hughes' years in Lawrence, where he lived from 1903 to 1915. The display will continue for at least the next few months.
Hughes wrote plays, stories, musicals, newspaper columns and poems about African-American life, said Maryemma Graham, professor of English and former Langston Hughes visiting professor. She said Hughes made two major contributions to American culture.
"He brought the culture of the folk into recognition as a legitimate literary form," she said. "Up to that point, what we call African-American literature was not looked at favorably. He refused to dress it up to make it more accessible to the mainstream. He gave respect to the way African Americans speak and think and carry on their daily lives."
She said Hughes was also a godfather in the Harlem Renaissance.
She said aspiring African-American writers would travel to Harlem to talk to Hughes.
"Once you were his friend, he maintained a relationship with you." Graham said.
Maria Butler, Lawrence resident, completed the exhibit for a class while working on her master's degree in historical administration and museum studies at the University of Kansas.
She had read Hughes' novel, "Not Without Laughter," which Hughes developed from his life in Lawrence.
"What I tried to do with that exhibit is draw parallels between incidents in the book and incidents that actually happened," Butler said.
Hughes spent most of his childhood living with his grandmother at 732 Alabama St.
After his grandmother died, Hughes moved in with a family at 731 New York St.
At the age of 13, he left Lawrence to join his mother in Lincoln, Ill., in the summer of 1915.
Hughes returned to Lawrence three times and gave poetry readings at the Kansas Union in 1958 and 1965.
"We think of Langston Hughes as being basically one of the native sons of Lawrence," said Chancellor Robert Hemenway, who taught a class about Hughes last year.

Harlem
What happens to a dream deferred?
Does it dry up like a raisin in the sun? Or fester like a sore—
And then run?
Does it stink like rotten meat?
Or crust and sugar over
like a syrupy sweet?
Maybe it just sags like a heavy load.
Or does it explode?

Trial begins for man charged with Texas dragging death
The Associated Press
JASPER, Texas — A sheriff testified yesterday that he figured out pretty quickly that the accident he was investigating was no hit-and-run — especially after a lighter with three interlocking K's was found along the bloody leaf left by an African-American man who had been dragged to his death.
crime, but I knew somebody had been murdered because he had been black," Billy Rowles said. "Once we saw the KKM ember on the cigarette lighter, that's when we started having some bad thoughts."
"I a brand new sheriff. I didn't even know the definition of a hate
Rowles was the first witness as alleged white supremacist John William King went on trial yesterday for murder charges in the gruesome death of James Byrd Jr. Byrd, 49, was chained to the back of a pickup truck
June 7 and dragged for three miles as his body was ripped to pieces.
King, a 24-year-old unemployed laborer, is the first of three white men charged in the crime to stand trial. He could set the death penalty.
Prosecutor Guy James Gray said in his opening statement that King's tattoos and writings in his apartment showed King was an angry racist who wanted to form a hate group.
King's attorney, Haden "Sonny"
Cribbs, made no opening statement,
reserving the option to do so later.
Iraq threatens to attack Turkey
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Iraq's threats against Turkey, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia for supporting recent U.S. air attacks are being taken seriously, but there is little chance Iraq's depleted air force could launch attacks deep into neighboring territory, a Defense Department official said yesterday.
"It's a sign of Saddam Hussein's desperation and isolation that Iraq is making such threats," said Kenneth Bacon, spokesman for Defense Secretary William Cohen. "I think the threats will get him nowhere."
"All of these would be difficult given the circumstances that Iraq faces today," Bacon said, referring to the deterioration of Iraq's military since the 1991 Persian Gulf war, the effect of the U.N. economic embargo and the strength of U.S. forces in the area that could retaliate.
Bacon said Iraq could try three ways to carry out its threats; fire Scud missiles, attack by air with planes or conduct terrorist raids.
Iraq's state-controlled media warned U.S. allies yesterday they would pay a high price for playing host to American and British warplanes that patrol no-fly zones over Iraq.
Iraqi Vice President Taha Yassin Ramadan said Monday that Baghdad would attack Incirlik Air Base in south-central Turkey — used by U.S. and British warplanes — if the jets continued patrolling Iraqi skies.

Belfast Assembly approves government
The Associated Press
ern Ireland.
BELFAST, Northern Ireland — Northern Ireland's politicians yesterday approved the blueprint for a new Protestant-Catholic government.
With a 77-29 vote that followed months of negotiations and two days of debate, legislators in the Belfast Assembly, as part of last year's peace accord, approved plans to create a 12-member administration for North-
As expected, all 40 Catholics and eight "neutral" politicians present voted for the blueprint, which outlines plans for the transfer of some powers from the British government.
More significantly, Protestant leader David Trimble — the new government's designated head — kept exactly half the Assembly's 58 proBritish Protestant members on board for approval.
After the vote, Trimble told reporters that the next steps required to make the peace accord work rested with the outlawed Irish Republican Army, which despite sticking to a July 1997 truce has refused to start disarming in support of the agreement.
The British government, which has governed Northern Ireland directly since 1972, has set March 10 as its preferred date to start handing powers back to the local administration.

Students raise money to produce sci-fi film

Kansan staff writer

And all for less than $20,000.
Allan Holt must come up with a way to blow up a car, create cyborg puppets and build a futuristic medical laboratory that can resurrect human beings.
And, like it or not, money plays a major role. The group currently is focused on raising funds for the film, which is now budgeted at $20,000.
On the fourth floor of Wescos Hall, the group has set up a table, where it students to fill out credit card applications, for which it receives a commission.
The group, called KU Filmworks, is preparing to shoot the sel-fi short *Ghost of a Chance*. The production will give members a chance to work beyond the scope of school projects and experience the process of making an independently funded film.
Dan McMellen, producer of the film and Mission senior, said that the University had a good film department but that it did not receive enough funding to make movies such as Ghost of a Chance.
"They're trying their best, but they're only getting so much money per year," he said. "The Theatre can put on plays and make money that way, but the only way we can make money is to form a club and fund ourselves."
Chuck Berg, professor of film and KU Film-work's sponsor, said that he was proud of the group and that he felt grateful for its contribution to the film department.
"Inpart, we're doing our jobs in hope that students will be seized by ambition and take on these kind of projects," he said.
The money raised will go toward renting cameras, lights, dollies, costumes and producing a variety of special effects. Holt, who also is the writer and director of the film, said although the film was science fiction, it wouldn't just be a movie full of flashing lights and futuristic gadgets.
"It's the concepts," said Holt, making a reference to George Lucas' approach to film. "One problem with the genre is that you can really screw yourself on a low budget by trying to get flashy.
"It's ambitious in a lot of ways. The main difficulty is that there's such a volume of work to do."
The script for Ghost of a Chance tells the story
of a futuristic medical team who is responsible for resurrecting the dead body of an important witness to a federal crime.
Unable to revive the body, the medical team picks a random dead person to represent the witness. When the person comes back to life, he must decide whether he cares enough to help.
"Then comes a little twist," Holt said. "But I won't give that away."
"It's been kind of an evolution," he said. "It all started out as stuff I'd seen on the Discovery Channel."
The script, which is now in its seventh draft,
has undergone a good deal of alteration.
Holt, who has a copy of the 30-page script thumbtacked to his bedroom wall, said the film was on his mind constantly.
"Right now, this is becoming my whole life," he said.
The group, which now consists of about 50 members, is not the first of its kind at the University. McMellen said three different film clubs had existed during the past four years, all of which are now defunct.
Holt said the group would benefit both present
and future film students.
"Everyone is getting something out of this project," he said. "We're all learning how to make films. We are taking the bulbs by the horns."
"Our hope is that KU Filmworks will earn a reputation. We're doing our part to help our film school become something."
The 25-minute film is planned to be shot during spring break and the two weeks following final exams.
Although many crew members are amateurs, Ben Krout, director of photography and former KU student, said enthusiasm would make up for inexperience.
"They're all so motivated I don't think it will be an issue," he said. "It doesn't take long to develop professional skills on a set. Within a couple days we'll be doing fine."
A benefit concert for KU Filmworks is planned for 9 p.m. March 3 at The Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., which will feature the Toledo Neurotic Trio. Creature Comforts and The Counterfeits.
The group also is planning to hold a raffle for items donated by area businesses and is asking for a contribution from Student Senate.
Syrva's CD The Quest could result in heaving
Kansan music boy
By Matt Cox
Syrva proves that even horrible vocalists can make a nationally distributed album.
A sticker on the its CD, called The Quest, says, "Featuring the hit single Fade." Hit? Yeah, right. On what lowly radio station?
Lead singer Syrva T.
Adler's biggest mistake was
making himself sing anything.
After listening to this album, you really start to wonder if it is a joke because you figure any vocalist that sounded this bad would have been warned by his friends not to release a CD anywhere.
Adler's vocals are shaky and sound as if he is about to heave. And, after the first song, you just might.
Adler's problem is that he relies on tired phrases to convey his emotions since he isn't very artistic with his own words.
However, there is something innocent in the effort, even though you laugh at every song. It's like your kid brother's band you know will never make it big.
Adler must be heavily influenced by Ozzy Osbourne, Journey and Dire Straits. The guitar riffs are a perfect combination of the three, creating a retro-rock atmosphere.
In fact, the music warrants at least a good listen but is ruined
THE QUEST
■ Syrva : The Quest
■ Rating : D+
SYRVA
the quest
quickly when Adler+
when Adler tries to mix intense vocals that don't fit with the music he writes.
As far as the "hit" single, Fade, is concerned, it reminds me of when South Park makes fun of crappy "uplifting" '80s rock music. I almost thought this was the band they hired to write those mocking songs. Sadly, Syrva is a real band.
The first track, *Mystica*, is a one-minute intro with no vocals. It creates a very Journey-esque atmosphere with harsh guitars that energize the body. The only reason to keep listening is to find out if the next song will be as bad as the previous one.
Commentary
Beavis and Butthead star in computerized golf game
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Fore, dude. Huh-
huh, huh-huh.
Beavis and Butthead are hitting the miniature golf links in cyberspace, bringing their demented brand of teen underachievement to desktop sports. Forget the corny windmill and hitting through the big clown's mouth. This mini golf rocks. Huh-huh, huh-huh.
Their trademark scatological slang is unavoidable as always, starting with the game's title, but just like their MTV show and feature film, it's all in fun. No real four-letter words are used, just the boys' raunchy, made-up lingo.
After running the same disclaimer that accompanies their TV show, which stresses that Beavis and Butthead are not role models, the game launches and players choose which of the cartoon's goofball cast to tee off as: one of the two title characters, their uptight neighbor Anderson, beaigned Principal McVicker, Todd the tough guy, or the hippie school teacher, Mr. Van Driessen.
Up to four people can play together, and everyone's ball stays in play until they hole out, allowing players to hit other balls with theirs, creating a ricocheting chaos that adds to the silliness. Each player's animated persona is
pictured on the side of the screen, allowing each character to heckle the competition.
The round opens in Beavis and Butthead's living room, where the lame-brain duo spend hours glued to the TV set watching music videos. The first putt has to pass safely through the opening and closing window, leaving an approach to the hole on the couch, where springs popping through the upholstery will reject errant shots.
The course continues for 17 more holes including Burger World, Coach Buzcutz's minefield hole, Maxi Mart, a junkyard, Highland High School, Todd's auto shop, Van Driessen's signature hole, Anderson's yard, McVicker's office and a rock concert stage.
The final hole is the lollapalozao, Cornholio, named for Beavis' sugar and caffeine-addicted alter ego. It's the toughest on the course, requiring a perfect shot up a toilet paper ramp into a chute pocket floating in a coffee cup.
The putting control is a simple, click, pull back and release arrangement. It could be more precise, but that might make the game more serious than it should be.
The game from GT Interactive (CD-ROM for Windows, $19.99) is a boot from the first tee to the 18th green.

Walking to the Fountain of Youth
story by carolyn mollett • photos by graham k. johnson
Frederick Timms plans to celebrate his 62nd birthday tomorrow with a 62-mile walk.
Frederick Timms ran from Colorado to Washington, D.C., in 1966 before distance running was popular. He started a
triathlon called the Clear Lake Marathon in 1971 before such an event was trendy.
In 1966, Timms joined his friends in Colorado when they were in the middle of a cross-country run for peace. The group eventually ran to the White House where they presented a petition for peaceful coexistence during the Vietnam War era.
Before those days, Timms had been a professional cowboy.
But nowadays,he's just a walkin' man.
Timms doesn't own a car. He walks or hitches a ride everywhere he goes, and Timms goes a lot of places.
Most recently he's been traveling to Ottawa and Garnett — about 25 and 45 miles respectively from Lawrence along U.S. Highway 59. He has been taking the early bus each Saturday morning, usually to Ottawa, then walking home. It's an all-day trek.
But all those walks have been leading up to one larger event: Tomorrow at 12:01 a.m., Timms plans to celebrate his 62nd birthday with a 62-mile jaunt along U.S. Highway 59 from Colony to Lawrence.
Timms enjoys his solitary walking time.

Timms said he wasn't trying to prove anything to anyone. He said that he wanted to live a long and healthy life, and this was a part of that endeavor.
He stressed that he would not push himself to reach the 62-mile mark for his birthday if he didn't feel that he could make it.
"It's to celebrate my birthday, not to celebrate my death," Timms said. "The idea is just to survive the whole thing."
He said some days he felt as though he could walk forever, but other days he got tired after the first 25 miles. Last Saturday, Timms tried to walk from Garnett back to Lawrence. When he got to Ottawa, Timms said he was lucky enough to find a young man who let him stay the night at his apartment.
Timms said that if he could walk 62 miles in 24 hours,he thought he would be exceptional.
"My feet were so sore, I just couldn't go on." he said.
He has been training for tomorrow's walk on-and-off for nearly a year. He said part of his training was his clean-living lifestyle — Timmss has never smoked or drank alcohol.
Even when he's just shuffling around
town, Timms always has his big backpack filled with clothes and provisions because he's sometimes away from home for the day.
For the long walk tomorrow, he will be prepared for anything with plenty of soda — he said he didn't like water and liked the extra boost from the caffeine — some snacks, a change of shoes and several lavers of clothes.
This walk will be a little different than his normal training because tomorrow Timms's son, Dan Timms, will follow his father in his car.
Dan Timms said he planned to stop every five miles and wait for his father to catch up. He'll carry food and drink to replenish his father.

Dan Timms he was proud of the legacy his father was creating. Although he said he was raised on long-distance running, he said he wouldn't want to take a long walk like his father.
"Some people are blessed or cursed with an unbelievable amount of energy," Dan Timms said.
Dan Timms said the tedium of a walk across the plains of Kansas would bother him.
"It's eloquent in its simplicity," Dan Timms said.
But overcoming that is part of the challenge.
And because of that, he said he admired his father's spirit.

No. 500 still dangles in the air
Women's team fails to defeat the Cyclones
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
The 21-game home winning streak is finished, but the search for 500 wins continues for the women's basketball team.
Guard Lynn Pride's potential game-tying three-point attempt fell just short at the buzzer as the No. 19 Iowa State Cyclones escaped Allen Fieldhouse with a 55-52 win and denied Marian Washington her 500th career victory.
The Jayhawks struggled early from the floor, shooting only 35 percent in the first half.
The sharp-shooting back-court of Iowa State (18-5 overall and 10-3 in the Big 12 Conference) proved to be too much for the No. 21 Jayhawks to handle.

Cyclones guards Megan Taylor and Stacy Frese combined to score 39 of the team's 55 points.
Taylor pushed the Cyclones to an early lead, scoring 18 first-half points on her way to a game-high 25 points and reboundes. The guard hit 3-of-5 from the three-point line in the first half to give Iowa State a 31-21 halftime lead.
"Megan works real hard, and she did a nice job," Washington said. "We knew she was one of their go-to players. We just didn't get there in time."
Guard Jennifer Jackson put the Jayhawks back into the game during the second half by scoring 11 of her 13 points on 5-of-7 shooting. Her last bucket — a 15-foot jumper —
pulled the Jayhawks within two with five minutes to play
A turnaround jumper by center Nakia Sanford and two free throws by Pride tied the game at 48-48, but the deadly accurate Taylor knocked down an uncontested three-pointer on the next possession to give the Cyclones the lead for good.
Taylor drained two free throws with 4 seconds remaining, giving Iowa State a threepoint lead. Kansas was forced to go the length of the floor as time expired.
Pride caught the in-bound pass just short of halfcourt, dribbed past two defenders and pulled up from the top of the key. Her shot fell off the front of the rim.
"It's great that my teammates rely on me in those situations," Pride said. "Even though I missed the shot, to have my Coach and my teammates pat me on the back is great."
The disappointed Jayhawks hugged their teammate as she fell down at midcourt with her face buried in her hands.
"If we could do it all over again, we'd have Lynn Pride shoot it again," said point guard Casey Pruitt. "We have no regrets. It wouldn't have come down to the wire if it hadn't been for her."
Pride finished with a teamhigh 14 points and tied a career-high with six steals.
Washington said she hoped the team would bounce back this week in practice and play well against Oklahoma this Saturday at Allen Fieldhouse.
"They believed they could do it, and they worked really hard to find a way to pull it out," Washington said. "We got close, but we've got more games, and this is going to be the team that's going to help me get 500."

One missed shot, one lost chance for win
By Mike Harrity
Kansan sportswriter
Lynette Woodard, sitting directly behind the Kansas women's basketball team bench, retrieved her video recorder with five seconds remaining in last night's basketball game against Iowa State at Allen Fieldhouse.
Woodard, the all-time leading score and rebounder in Kansas history, was recording the team's huddles and locker room talks in hopes of capturing the emotion surrounding Coach Marian Washington's 500th win.
Woodard steadied the video recorder, zooming in on the scoreboard overhead. It read — Iowa State 55. Kansas 52.
Five seconds later, when the buzzer sounded and the scoreboard showed
the same score, the camera was secure in its carrying case as Woodard headed out of the gym.
No celebration to record this night*
After struggling during the first half and falling behind.31-21. Kansas rallied during the second half amid hopeful cheers from the crowd of 2,400.
And the 31-24 second half run by Kansas didn't end until the last shot of the game. After Iowa State guard Megan Taylor made two free throws with five seconds left, Iowa State called a time-out.
The message in the Kansas huddle was simple: Get guard Lynn Pride the ball. With the time-out completed, Pride caught the ball near half court, dribbled to the top of the arc and let the shot go.
The buzzer sounded.
The shot missed Game over
"The shot plays over and over in my head — I couldn't tell you exactly what I did wrong," said Pride, who finished with 14 points and six steals. "We really wanted to win for Coach, but there's a reason for everything, and eventually it will happen for her."
"You are the team that is going to get me this 500th win," she said. "There's no pressure here. We'll get it."
During the pregame warmups, many well-wishers, including Chancellor Robert Hemenway, came behind the Kansas bench to give

After the game, Washington seemed to be relieved that the gut-wrenching game was finished.
"I'm just disappointed for the players because they really wanted it." Washington said. "I don't want them to be down. We've got more games, and we're going to get it."
A cake — big enough to feed 300 people during a postgame celebration — will have to wait until 7:05 p.m. Saturday, when Kansas plays its last home game of the season against Oklahoma.
As for Washington, who has a 499-274 record during her 26 years at Kansas, there's no rush for the milestone victory.
"I can wait," she said. "I've been waiting for 26 years."
Jayhawks look to declaw 'Cats

With four games left, Kansas' future unclear
When the Kansas men's basketball team takes the court at 8:05 tonight against longtime in-state rival Kansas State, the implications could be endless.
not only will the Jayhawks, 16-8 overall and 8-4 in the Big 12 Conference, attempt to extend their 14-game winning streak against the Wildcats, but they also will be playing for their postseason future.
After losing its last two games and dropping out of the ESPN/USA Today Top 25 poll for the first time in eight years, Kansas is in danger of missing out on the NCAA tournament for the first*
With four games remaining in the regular season, the Jayhawks find themselves mired in fifth place in the Big 12 and all but eliminated from claiming their fifth straight conference title.
time since Coach Roy Williams' inaugural season in 1988-89.
"We put ourselves in a hole in the Big 12 conference," Kansas forward Nick Bradford said. "Right now, we're bastically positioning ourselves for the NCAA tournament. Fate is still in our hands."
"We are going to win these last four games. We have no other choice," Bradford said. "We have to go in being confident and not looking back. In our minds we think we are going to win out and get
Bradford said although an invitation to the NCAA tournament was not assured, he still had confidence the Jayhawks could do what it took to make it a certainty.
to the NCAA tournament."
But first the Jayhawks will have to beat a Wildcat team that is seeking revenge after suffering a 69-46 loss to Kansas on Feb.1.
"We are going to get the most enthused K-State team of the entire year because of what happened in the other game," Williams said. "They're fighting for a spot in postseason play. They're also fighting for their seniors because they haven't ever beaten us, and that's a pretty good incentive for them."
Williams said he expected fired up Wildcats when the team takes the floor tonight at Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas State, 16-9 overall and 5-7 in the Big 12, will try to improve on what Coach Tom Asbury said was an awful game in Manhattan.

Commentary
Fickle fans should back men's team through loss
Sunday morning at 7, Bob from Florida called
Bob's an 80-year-old Florida resident who lives for Kansas basketball, and on Sunday he was worried.
"I'm a little worried," Bob said. "What in the criminy is going on with the Jayhawks?"
And while I have never met Bob, he often calls me, usually after a loss. This season, I have heard from Bob a lot.
I have never met Bob. But I tape each Kansas basketball game and mail it to him, in part out of the goodness of my heart and in part because he sends me a check to do so.
Bob is a Kansas native who never went to the University of Kansas. He went to college somewhere in Utah but never lost his love for Kansas basketball.
And so, after Kansas loses, Bob picks up the phone at 8 a.m. Florida time, half the day already gone as far as he is concerned, and calls me.
Sunday, Bob was worried. He hadn't seen the Jayhawks 63-58 loss to Texas Tech, since I hadn't sent him the tape, but he read about in the paper.
"I'm really worried." Bob said.
I'm ready woried. - Deborah
Bob's worries ran as long as an hour. He doesn't understand why Kenny Gregory, the most talented player on the team, is playing like a high school kid. Bob wonders why Ryan Robertson's play is so sporadic, why Eric Chenowith continues to look tentative under the basket and why Nick Bradford and T.J. Pugh are the only players who seem to intimidate the opposing team.
But most of all, Bob is concerned about the fans.

state team?" Bob inquired.
I explained to Bob that the mass exodus from the Allen Fieldhouse was what The Kansas City Star columnist Jason Whitlock appropriately describes as the "Rock Chalk Jaywalk." I told Bob that the people leaving were not the diehards who care deeply about the team but mostly alumni and fair-weather fans who go to games so they can brag to others that they go to games.
What Bob didn't hear on the tape, I said, was that the students began booing those who where leaving. But I had to add that as die-hard as even the students seem, the number of students camping out at the Fieldhouse has dropped with each loss.
I didn't have an answer.
"Then why wasn't the place full?" he demanded.
"This is basketball, for gosh sake," Bob screamed. "Don't people understand that a game can turn within seconds? Those people in Kansas need to realize that when you go to a game, you can't just leave, especially when the team needs you most. What is wrong with those fans?"
That made Betty, Bob's wife who was listening in on the speaker phone, say something that should not be repeated here.
Bob also noticed, while watching the tape of the home loss to Nebraska, that thousands of people walked out with about one minute to go and Kansas down by just a mere possession.
Bob is worried. He thinks fans will abandon the team when it needs them the most; while it is fighting for an NCAA Tournament bid.
I told him that not everyone would abandon the team but that based on the new apathy I had seen from Kansas fans in recent weeks, I couldn't tell him not to worry.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
Money is the topic this year. You'll gather lots of it, so save it wisely. Communication is the key to wealth in March. In April, it's education, with some lessons learned the hard way. By November, you could have generated a new source of income by catering to a demanding person's whims. To get the advantage, check the day's rating: 10 is the easiest day, 0 the most challenging.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is a 6.
It looks as if you're building a ladder to the top, but today's most important thing happens later when you get in touch with the reason you're going to all this trouble. Love is what's really important, and if there's not enough of it in your life, maybe it's because you've been climbing too fast.
raurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 6.
Things appear to be going very well again today, but
a breakdown in communication occurs. You don't
have to nervously wait for it, just watch out for it.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 5.
Someone is trying to teach you something today — by example, not words. A person you admire may take on something extremely difficult. If so, pay attention. You can mimic what the other person does, even if you can't quite explain it.
Cancer (June 22- July 22); Today is a 6.
Today the hassles end early, leaving clear sailing for you and your love. Plan something special for this evening.
Taking off for Tahiti may be what you have in mind, but dinner at a Tahiti restaurant might have to do.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 5.
Today, take a moment or two to reflect on what you're going to leave to future generations. If you start saving money now, by the time you retire, you'll be fabulously wealthy. Today is a marvelous day to begin.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Today is a 5.
It looks as if things will go well today, but not as you expected. Your conversation with a partner has its ups and downs. Don't worry. The disagreements won't last. Go ahead and hash out the details, and everything will be hunky-dory.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
You could be mistake-prone today, so watch out.
You haven't quite mastered something you thought you'd learned by now, and everything you don't know will probably be pointed out to you. Don't be too hard on yourself. Just put in the correction and keep going. Actually, you're doing fine.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 6.
There's some sort of problem concerning money again, and it looks as if it also involves love. Perhaps you and your sweetheart want to do something you can't afford yet.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is a 6.
No matter what's going on today, don't worry.
There's a happy ending, and a couple of adventures in between here and there won't hurt a bit. One of those might be a misunderstanding with a person you like. Don't just assume you know what was meant by his or her words, especially if they hurt your feelings — ask.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
You could become wealthy, but right now someone else is getting most of your money. Is that because you're investing for your future? Either that or you're paying off bills, another noble gesture. You need to put up a structure and stash something away for the future.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
It looks as if you have no problem getting the money to come in today. The problem is figuring out how to disperse it. You should be thinking about all your options, but be slow to act.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 6. What the other person said and what you heard were two different things, so be careful if you're thinking about spreading gossip. You could send things off in a whole different direction than was originally intended.

Vaughn's 50 home runs last year with San Diego obviously gave him some clout with the Reds, who traded for him on Feb. 2. Schott agreed this week to Vaughn's request that she waive the rule about facial hair, a policy dating to 1967.
So Vaughn's goatee is safe, clearing the way for other players.

I called Greg Vaughn to let him know before he reported to spring training, so he could keep his goatette as long as it was neatly trimmed," Schott said. "With the support of our fans, we have changed our facial hair policy.

A couple hours earlier, Black answered his home telephone by saying, "Dennis Rodman Hotline."
Several players said speculation about Rodman's expected arrival hadn't been a distraction, but the Lakers enter tonight's game with a disappointing 3-3 record.
Spielman, 33, was to be introduced at a news conference at the Browns' headquarters along with offensive tackle Orlando Brown and cornerback Antonio Langham, both former Browns who are returning to Cleveland.
The Browns followed a hectic Monday when they agreed to terms with Brown and Minnesota cornerback Corey Fuller by finalizing a deal with the Buffalo Bills yesterday for Spielman. Details of the trade had not been released by the club.
CLEVELAND — Chris Spielman, the All-Pro linebacker who sat out last season to be with his wife while she recovered from breast cancer surgery, is now a member of the Cleveland Brown.
The former Ohio high school star and All-American at Ohio State had made it known last week that he wanted to join the Browns, who are returning to the NFL next season following a three-year absence.
Spielman hasn't played since 1997. He underwent neck fusion surgery in November 1997, and then chose to sit out last year while his wife, Stefanie, recovered from cancer.

After meeting with the NFL expansion committee yesterday, commissioner Paul Tagliabue said nearly all opposition to bringing in a 32nd team had evaporated.
NFL may add franchise in California or Texas
ragiabue said both the Los Angeles and Houston markets were desirable in terms of fan interest, population and ownership groups. The main difference is a set plan for a new stadium in Houston.
"I think some type of consensus is developing to go to 32 teams," Tagliabue said after the four-hour meeting. "Certainly, a year ago, it was hard enough to make the decision to go to 31 (with the new team in Cleveland)." NFL owners will meet next month in Phoenix when the decision is likely to be made.
ATLANTA — NFL owners have cleared the way to decide in March whether Los Angeles or Houston gets the league's 32nd team, which could begin play by 2002.
"I'm not leaning toward either city," he said.
Tagliabue insisted that no decision had been made on which city would get the new team.
A Houston group headed by Bob McNair already has a plan in place for a new retractable roof stadium, while two rival groups in Los Angeles have separate stadium plans. One wants to renovate the aging Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, and the other wants to build a new stadium in suburban Carson City.

Commentary
Jayhawk faithful should maintain perspective as team suffers bad press
I had this nightmare last night that Paul Pierce decided to leave college early for the NBA. Without him, the Jayhawks kept on losing double-digit leads late in games. I woke up in a cold sweat. Thank goodness it was just... a..dream?
But enough about dreams. Let's talk business.
In case you haven't noticed, the men's basketball team has been losing games lately. Tonight the Jayhawks try to avoid their third loss in a row when the Kansas
State Wildcats,
everyone's
least favorite,
roll into town
I'm thinking that the Hawks once again will crush the Wildcats. But even with an impressive win, the guys need to be prepared for some more bad press.
10
Seth Jones
spots@kansan.com
With eight losses, The Kansas City Star has all but forgotten the once mighty Jayhawks. Its new poster boy is Keyon Dooling of the Missouri Tigers. Whenever the Hawks do see print, it's an article condemning them for losing another lead by folding like a house of cards late in the game.
50
A team such as the Wildcats is used to bad publicity. In 1997, Wildcat power forward Manny Dies got so mad at Kansas State Collegian sports columnist Todd Stewart's constant harassment in the paper that he and teammate Pero Vasiljevic went and kicked in Stewart's door. I'm pretty sure they weren't there to talk about sports.
Dies pleaded guilty to criminal trespass. If I were the sports columnist, I would have pleaded guilty to needing to change my pants after seeing the 6-foot- 230-pound player kick down my door.
Usually, any press relating to Roy's Boys is all happy and fun:
"See how the Jayhawks run; see
But recently, it's been more, "See the Jayhawks choke; see players benched; look for a team leader, and see if you can find one."
them smile; see the grade point average of their back court."
You can't blame The Kansas City Star for losing interest in the Jayhawks. You can't blame a 19-year-old kid such as Dies for getting really mad at some punk sports columnist. After all, sometimes we are pretty annoying.
How will the Jayhawks react to cynical sportswriters? How will Jayhawk fans respond to overweight sports columnists? How will sports columnists treat the Jayhawks in print?
There are some key issues for Jayhawk fans, players and sports columnists to remember.
One. These basketball players are college students. They're young. Did you know that Marlon London was born in 1980? How can I give this guy a hard time when he's only 18? NBA veterans miss free throws, so why can't Jeff Boschee?
Two: Newspapers cover whoever is in favor. That's why Kansas dominated all the local papers for so long. Right now, the team is slipping. It's okay to read about Missouri instead of Kansas once in a while.
Three: We sports columnists are paid to be critical of sports people. When it comes to Kansas, I want these guys to win more than anything.
Just because I make fun of Robertson's right arm flex doesn't mean I hate him. I want him to win. If I say I think T.J. Pugh is overrated and gets his shot blocked more than entire teams, that doesn't mean I want him to be kicked off the team. And it definitely doesn't mean I want him to kick in my front door.
And if no one made a big deal out of basketball, and we just talked about football ... well, there probably wouldn't be an NBA draft, would there?

Second-ranked Connecticut easily overtakes Rutgers team
The Huskies (23-1, 14-1 Big East) broke the 70-point mark for the first time in five games, but again an injury was the main concern at end of the game. Starting center Jake Voskuhl missed almost the entire second half with a sore left foot, the same one that caused him to miss the game against Syracuse, the Huskies' only loss of the season.
Richard Hamilton, the team's leading scorer at 21 points per game, again struggled from the field in his third game back from missing two
STORRS, Conn. — Second-ranked Connecticut didn't look as crisp as it did for the 10 weeks it was the No. 1 team in the country, but the Huskies had an easy 77-64 victory against Rutgers yesterday.
Rutgers (17-8, 9-6), which had won its last three games and seven of eight total, trailed 36-25 at halftime but was within 6 points with 6:21 to play on a driving basket by Rob Hodson.
games with a right thigh bruise. He had 21 points on 5-for-16 shooting and is averaging 14 points since his return.
The Huskies shot 53 percent (28-for-53), the first time they have shot better than 42 percent in the last five games.
Geoff Billet had 20 points for Rutgers, which has lost eight straight games against Connecticut and trails 23-12 in the series, while Hodgson had 10.
Connecticut asserted itself on the boards and built the lead to 69-57 on a three-point play by Kevin Freeman with 3:14 left.

--and that he had lost some of his mechanics at the plate. By Sunday's final game, he said that he had begun to feel more comfortable in the batter's box and that he had gotten toether his old rhythm.
"We didn't execute, and we didn't make easy shots, and yet we still had a chance." Asbury said. "There are a number of individual things that we need to break down. We need to take care of the basketball and make good decisions. We need to rebound."
Postseason spot possibly on line
Continued from page 1B
Although the Wildcats have the best rebounding margin in the Big 12, they were unable to prove it against Kansas — losing the battle of the boards 43-41.
Bradford said if the Jayhawks hoped to turn the season around, they had better start tonight.
"K-State is a big game, for the rivalry and for our season," Bradford said. "We've had our ups and downs, but right now we can change all that. If we can give five, six seven games going into the tournament, that will give us great confidence. When we get into the tournament, we can beat anyone."

Outfielder's solo home run helped give team 2-1 record
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Van Alsburg said that he was nervous throughout the first two games of the series
A year ago, Matt Van Alsburg was conditioning and preparing for the high school baseball season. This year, he is leading the Kansas baseball team in home runs.
Although the team, 2-1, has played only three games and Van Alsburg, Fort Collins, Colo., freshman, is leading the team with one home run, he said he was overwhelmed by the situation.
"I guarantee I wouldn't have thought that I would hit a home run," Van Alsburg said. "I really had no idea it was gone until I hit first base, and then it was like, 'wow.'"
"I had no idea," he said. "Coach told us on the bus ride down there, and from that point on, I realized it was time to step up."
Thrust into the starting lineup because of an injury to junior outfielder Brett Kappelmann, Van Alsburg said he didn't know he would play until the night before the Texas-Arlington series last weekend.
Van Alsburg said his nerves had calmed down by the time he stepped into the box during the sixth inning.
"When I step up to the plate, the instincts kick in, and I forget that I'm a freshman, and I forget there are people watching." he said.
As he stared out to the mound, he blocked out distracting elements and settled into his comfort zone.
The first pitch was a curve ball that crossed the plate for a strike.
"That was a big, really big, home run that turned the game around," Coach Bobby Randall said.
The next pitch that flung from the pitcher's hand was a fastball, down and away. Sure enough, Van Alsburg swung — ripping it out of the ballpark for a two-run home run that opened the game.
“Taking the first pitch allowed me to get a feel for the timing and rhythm,” he said. “Since he threw a curve ball first, I started thinking he might come back with a fastball on the next one.”
Baseball
In a matter of seconds, Van Alsburg had given his team a comfortable lead, hit his first collegiate home run and began his term in the college baseball scene.
“It’s kind of fun to joke around with,” Van Alsburg said. "I have no idea if I'll ever hit another one."
For now, Van Alsburg said he would continue to approach every at bat comfortably and ready to attack.
This weekend, Van Alsburg and the rest of the Kansas baseball team will travel to Phoenix to play in the Rawlings Spring Training Tournament.
Depending on the team's health, Randall said Van Alsburg might continue to start. He said he expected the freshman to continue to contribute.

KU town hall meeting tonight
(U$PS 650-640)
Chancellor and student body president will speak
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Students will have a chance to talk to the chancellor about campus issues at a town hall meeting tonight.
Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Student Body President Kevin Yoder will give "State of the Campus" reports at 7 at the auditorium in the new Visitor Center next to Templin Hall.
Hemenway and Yoder each will spend five to 10 minutes delivering their speeches, and students will have an hour to raise questions about any campus issues.
Mary Burg, executive assistant to the chancellor, said that Hemenway felt strongly about reaching out to students on campus.
"This is students' opportunity to talk to the chancellor, and the chancellor's opportunity to talk to them," she said. "He wants to hear what has been on students' minds."
Burg said that Hemenway would talk about the University of Kansas' priorities and state legislative issues that affect students, such as the faculty salary initiative.
Yoder will speak about what is occurring on campus, including campus safety, recreation, parking and online enrollment.
Yoder said that the meeting would be a good opportunity to address students' concerns and to inform them about campus issues.

“It’s a rarity that the chancellor does this,” Yoder said. “The town hall meeting is one of the
He said that it also would be a good time for students to see the new Visitor Center.
R. J. Woodring, Lisle, Ill., sophomore, said that he hadn't had a chance to hear the chancellor speak about campus issues and was looking forward to hearing Hemenway's perspective.
"I want to see the chancellor interact with other students who do not really know a lot about what's going on," he said. "I'd like to see the different perceptions that Kevin (Yoder) and the chancellor have on issues."
Mary Liu, Overland Park senior, said that she liked the idea of having a town hall meeting on Daisy Hill.
"I'm going to listen to what's going on and see what the chancellor has been up to," she said.

Ads reflect real trends in students' drinking
By Kristi Reimer
By Krisn Reimter
Kansan staff writer
Michael Haines wants to expose what he calls the best-kept secret on college campuses — that most students are responsible drinkers.
haines, coordinator of health enhancement at Northern Illinois University, is at the University of Kansas this week by the Kansas Health Foundation to help plan a campaign to reduce harmful drinking. He spoke to about 80 staff members, faculty and students in a Student Affairs seminar yesterday at the Kansas Union.
Haines said most alcohol-education programs were ineffective because they tried to scare students.
He said well-meaning advocates often worsened the problem by focusing on damaging behavior and publicizing it, leading to the perception that alcohol abuse is typical.
"It had a dollar for every time I heard the phrase, 'College students think they're invincible, I would be rich,' Haines said. "Our mission is to make them feel vulnerable, at risk, like they could die tomorrow." Yuck. What an ugly mission."
Haines said that even students who believed harmful drinking was wrong were more likely to do it if they thought it was normal.
"We are our own worst enemies in terms of protecting our students from harm," he said.
The program Haines introduced was developed at NIU and offered alcohol education alternatives. Through advertising he demonstrated that most students drink moderately and know how to protect themselves from problems associated with alcohol, such as academic failure, injury to themselves or others, violence and crime.
"We want students to feel better about themselves, to feel more capable of protecting themselves and to be more willing to express their ideas," he said.
Haines displayed a chart showing that between 1988 — when the campaign was introduced — and the present, perceptions of alcohol use and actual alcohol use both fell at NIU. Heavy drinking, defined as five or more drinks in one setting, fell 44 percent.
setting, ten 14 per person.
One ad in the NIU campaign — modeled on a Dewars Scotch ad — contains pictures of student role models with information about their lives and interests along with their definitions of responsible drinking and advice for students to avoid alcohol-related harm.
Similar ads might soon be showing up on the KU campus. The University is preparing to launch a campaign based on Haines' ideas financed by a $450,000 grant from the Kansas Health Foundation.
Meg Gedderz, graduate assistant for Greek programs, said she was impressed with Haines' ideas.
she was hipped except to it, I was apprehensive," Godderz said. "But I had just heard pieces, not the whole plan of action. Once I heard his speech, he had me convinced."
action. Brad Fletcher, owner of Rita Madl, owner of the Sandbar, 17 E. Eighth St., attended the session. She said that as a local bar owner she wanted to promote responsible drinking.
profilere responsibleng drinking.
"The future of our business is not the amount of alcohol consumed at one time but the number of people we serve," Madl said. "I'm interested in healthy, moderate drinking."

Bill-dodging roommates could hurt students' credit reports
Bv Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
"They will be the one that needs to make arrangements to avoid running into problems," said Phyllis Harrison, credit counselor at Consumer Credit Counseling Services. 2158 Ridge Court.
Roommates who fail to pay their share of the bills do more than irritate the people that they live with — they can also affect their roommates' credit histories.
- When utilities are listed in one roommate's name, that person alone is accountable for payments.
Last year, Erin Binter, Overland Park junior, lived with roommates who were consistently late covering their portions of bills.
"The bills would just sit there with my check in the envelope waiting for their checks," she said.
ered entire bills to avoid late payments.
Binter said that her roommates often owed her money because she had cov-
extremely mild — no pain.
He was the very nervous — I didn't
notice much had happened.
Not all students can cover for their roommates like Binter did.
Harrison said that if the person responsible could not cover for roommates, he or she should contact the utility company or landlord as soon as possible.
"The longer it goes on, the worse the situation gets." Harrison said. "Creditors don't know that there is a roommate involved. They just expect to receive payment."
She said that making the creditor aware of the situation could prevent damage to an individual's credit history. Creditors generally will arrange a plan to make undelinquent payments, she said.
City of Lawrence Utilities, which provides water, sewer and trash services, often grants extensions through the
next period's due date.
"We prefer to work with the customer rather than having to turn off their services," said Cindy Naff, a senior account clerk with the company.
Naff said City of Lawrence Utilities turned off water services if delinquent notifications were sent and customers failed to contact them.
She also said that once services had been turned off, customers had to pay before they would be restored.
After three payment notifications, Naff said, the names of people who haven't made arrangements with the company are turned in to a collection agency.
Late payments and delinquencies can show up on credit histories for seven years. Harrison said.
Creditors are not required to inform individuals when they report delinquent payments that could affect the
credit reports, Harrison said.
She suggested that if roommates' failure to pay their portion of bills affected someone else's credit history, an explanatory note should be attached to the credit report.
Julie Gibler, manager of Colony Woods Apartments, 1301 W.24th St., said Colony Woods didn't let delinquent roommates miss payments without punishment.
"In our leases, all roommates are jointly and severely responsible," Gibler said.

Harrison said that it was not uncommon for students to contact her with financial problems related to roommates.
She said that missed payments could result in late fees and even eviction to everyone in the unit depending on the situation.

Magazine solicitor didn't take 'no' for an answer
A magazine solicitor was arrested at 9:08 p.m. Tuesday in the 1800 block of Engel Road after he allegedly battered a KU student who refused to buy a magazine, Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said.
The solicitor, an 18-year-old Milwaukee resident, was told to leave McColum Hall, where he was trying to sell magazine subscriptions. An 18-year-old female KU student left the residence hall at the same time as the man and passed him on the sidewalk.
Upon seeing her, the solicitor allegedly grabbed her arm and asked her why she had not bought a magazine from him, Bailey said.
The student then went back to McCollum and found a 19-year-old male friend of hers to confront the solicitor. The friend and the solicitor got into a scuffle outside of McCollum, Bailey said.
Both men were charged with battery. Only the solicitor was taken to jail because he had no local ties and was required to post bond to ensure that he would return for his court appearance, Bailey said.
Baskin-Robbins robbed; suspect still not found
An armed man allegedly robbed Baskin-Robbins 31 Flavors Ice Cream Store, 1524 W. 23rd St., at 10:25 p.m. Tuesday, Officer Matt Sarma of the Lawrence Police Department said.
Two store employees were the only people in the store at the time of the robbery. They said the man walked in, showed a handgun and told them to give him money, Sara said.
The man was described as being 5-feet 10-inches tall, 160 pounds and was wearing a red shirt, blue jeans and a baseball cap. He left the store on foot, Sara said.

The Sociology Club will run the final day of a three-day food drive from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. today on the fourth floor of the Kansas Union to benefit the East Central Kansas Economic Opportunity Corporation, 1600 Haskell Ave.
"Our food pantry has been hit hard because of Thanksgiving and Christmas, and we've had an increase in requests for food," said Eve Cofer, director at ECKAN. "We give out to at least 100 families a month. You have to have a lot of food to meet the demands."
Cofer said that ECKAN needed fans for the summer, blankets for the winter and any non-perishable foods.
Sociology Club president Sarah Terrebonne said that the amount of items collected had been average but that ECKAN could always use more.
"We got in about three bags full of clothes, two plastic bags full of food," Terrebone said. "Maybe tomorrow will be better."

Warplanes on standby in case peace not made
NATION
WASHINGTON - The United States ordered an additional 51 American warplanes to Europe yesterday for possible airstrikes against Serbia if a peace agreement about Kosovo is not reached this weekend.
Secretary of Defense William Cohen signed an order directing 12 Air Force F-117 stealth fighter-bombers, 10 Navy EA-6B electronic warfare planes and 29 refueling planes now in the United States to a base in Europe.
Cohen's order followed another warning yesterday from the Clinton administration to Yugoslav President Solodban Milosevic that the Serbs face "swift and severe" consequences if they persist in rejecting a NATO peacekeeping force in Kosovo.
Demanding that Milosevic change his mind by noon Saturday, James P. Foley, a State Department spokesman, said, "If it would take some military action to force Mr. Milosevic to his senses, so be it."
The order, signed yesterday afternoon by Cohen, directs that the planes depart U.S. bases within the next 48 hours. Officials said the F-117s are now at Holloman Air Force Base in New Mexico.
The additional planes bring to 260 the number of U.S. aircraft that would be available for any NATO strikes against Serbia, Bacon said. Additional U.S. aircraft, including bombers, have been ordered to a standby position in case they are needed, he added.
—The Associated Press
NATO Secretary General Javier Solana has had authority since Jan. 30 to order airstrikes against the Serbs and is not required to consult alliance members again, Foley said.

Pearson Hall makes switch to office space
By Kimberly J. Erb
Special to the Kansan
ON THE RECORD
The School of Education is laying the foundation for a new, state-of-the-art Teacher Education Center, slated to be finished by Spring 2000.
John Eve, construction manager, said renovation of Pearson Scholarship Hall is on schedule. Construction workers are transforming it into the new home for the School of Education.
The Teacher Education Center, a 25,000 square foot addition to the west side of the existing structure, will provide the school with the crucial space and technology it now lacks in the Bailey Hall.
Steve Scannell, consultant services manager of Design and Construction Management, said the center would include computer labs, a science and math lab, an instructional technology center, several classrooms, a lecture hall, a student commons area and a wheelchair-accessible entry.
He said that the commons area would be decorated with art and sculpture displays and a glass wall that overlooked campus
"There is going to be an outdoor plaza for nice weather with the same really lovely view." Scannell said.
This area also will provide students studying education with a place to congregate and study, which Bailey Hall does not offer.
In addition, the center will contain a state of the-art telecommunications-equipped classroom and a curriculum library with a children's literature collection.
The renovated Pearson Hall, which is now completely gutted, will include a research area, seminar rooms, faculty and administrative offices.
Construction is being handled by Ferrell Construction of Topeka, which has contracted with the University before. It also did much of the construction on Lewis Hall, Templein Hall and the Memorial Stadium concourse.
Earle Knowlton, associate dean for teacher education and undergraduate studies, said that most responses to the move were favorable, but that some faculty members would miss the convenience of Bailey Hall's centralized location.
A KU student's wallet was stolen in Lawrence between 7 p.m. Feb. 13 and 2 p.m. Sunday, a Lawrence Police report said. The wallet and its content were valued at $67.

Senate approves fee increase
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Kansan staff writer
Student Senate passed a $2 student fee increase last night.
The increase — from $6 to $8 — was to the Educational Opportunity Fee, which is the portion of campus fees that awards funds each fall to academic departments and student organizations for need-based grants and student salaries for community service or employment in campus service programs.
Nicole Skala, fee review subcommittee chair and the bill's sponsor, said that student groups had requested almost $600,000 last fall, but only $276,000 was available.
Erika Nutt, Social Welfare senator, said that the EOF was the most valuable student fee. She said that the only reason it had not been increased by the Board of Regents in the past was because of the bureaucracy involved.
"Generally, my constituents are not in favor of increasing student fees," Nutt said. "But I think they would support this increase because not only does it go to under-represented students, but also because it is the most socially just fee."
Student Senate
In other business, Senate passed the following legislation:
■ A resolution supporting the establishment of student representative seats for minority groups at Big 12 Conference universities.
Marlon Marshall, Engineering senator and EOF committee member, said that he did not think the fee should be increased because many of the funds were used to pay hourly student salaries which should have be paid for by the University of Kansas, not by students.
A bill to finance the KU Student Lecture Series' possible speaker, South African Bishop and Nobel Peace Prize Winner Desmond Tutu.
He said that last fall every group that applied
Bills to finance the Asian-American Festival, International Awareness Week, Commission on the Status of Women and Engineering Expo '99.
for funds was granted at least a portion of what it asked for, and that the fee increase would just encourage student groups to request more money.
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, said that the fee increase should have been put to a student body referendum.
He said that many senators violated their campaign slogan of, "Have a say before you pay," by voting for the fee increase
without student body consent.
The EOF was awarded to 31 organizations last fall, including the KU McNair Scholars Program, Graduate Minority Recruitment Program, Office of Student Financial Aid, and School of Social Welfare.
If the fee increase is approved by the chancellor and the Board of Regents in April, it will go into effect this fall.

Lecture features connection between Asian economic crashes, globalization
By Kris M. Elliott Special to the Kansan
The United States should consider the recent economic collapses in Asia in relation to one another, said Clyde Stoltenberg, professor of business.
Stoltenberg gave a lecture called "Japan and Its Asian Neighbors: The Financial Debacle" yesterday. About 40 people attended the lecture, which was part of the University Forum series at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
Stoltenberg said that the United States made the mistake of looking at events such as economic collapses in Thailand, Korea and Singapore as separate events instead of comparing them to the state of the global economy.
"Globalization has tied national and local economies ever closer together." Stoltenberg said.
Stoltenberg said that investors needed to be aware that changes in
the value of money and property was cyclical.
For example, he said that in 1980, his father could have sold his farm for $4,000 an acre. His father didn't sell the land, and the value quickly dropped. However, when the land was sold last year, his father received nearly as much as he would have in 1980.
"If my dad's farm land took 18 years to get back to its value, these problems aren't going to be wrung out very quickly." Stoltenberg said.
Stoltenberg said that the world economy was unstable because people were investing differently. Investments that used to be in tangible transactions, such as real estate, have changed to portfolio investments, including bonds and stocks, which can move in and out of an economy rapidly.
Stoltenberg said that $1.25 trillion was traded daily across borders. This meant that one week's trade
transactions were equal to the gross national product of the United States for one year.
Despite the instability of several Asian economies now, Stoltenberg said that he would rather invest in them instead of the U.S. stock market because he believed the worst is through for those countries.
"I'm not putting money in the stock market these days," he said. "I would put money in Korea. Korea strikes me as being through the worst."
Molly Yu, a graduate student from China, said the speech did a good job of showing how Asian economies were related to each other.
She said that she often spoke with her friends in Beijing about the Asian financial crisis.
"This speech was not just about China," Yu said. "It addressed the issue from a different perspective. It helped me see where the crisis started out."

Alternate Park-and-Ride system signal of student irresponsibility
Some bus riders have devised an alternative to the Park-and-Ride system. Students living in southwest Lawrence drive to the 22nd Street and Kasold Drive stop for the KU on Wheels bus and then board the bus that takes them to campus.
To do this, they park their cars in the Hy-Vee parking lot. The store management, however, soon realized this and discouraged parking for those not patronizing the stores. Bus riders now park along nearby residential areas to catch the bus. Neighborhood residents have complained, finding their streets noisy, overcrowded and over-adorned with trash.
Hy-Vee has a large parking lot with plenty of room for vehicles. However, the lot is private property intended for
Vehicle overflow has created a nuisance for Lawrence residents and business.
those visiting the shopping center's stores. If Hy-Vee allowed bus users to park in the lot, they also would have to allow anyone else who wanted to use the extra parking spaces for their own means. Students should respect the store's wishes.
However, students legally are able to park along the residential streets surrounding 22nd and Kasold. The issue here is a matter of courtesy. Students attending the University of Kansas are adults and should behave as such. They should show more courtesy
toward the residents. If students choose to park there, they should keep all noise and trash in their vehicles.
An even better solution would be to abandon the practice altogether. KU on Wheels has a smart and inoffensive alternative: Park and-Ride, which costs only $10 more than a bus pass. Using this method, students can stop perpetuating the myth that college students are self-centered, noisy and apathetic.
The parking problem is a KU tradition that is not likely to change in the near future. However, the Park-and-Ride program is an excellent way to alleviate problems for students who must drive to campus. KU on Wheels users should utilize this system before they become the pariads of southwest Lawrence.

Commissioners' raise questionable
On Feb. 9, the Lawrence City Commission voted to increase the salary for commissioners from $6,000 to $9,000 and from $6,000 to $10,000 for the mayor. Although the work of our city commissioners must be applauded, this pay raise seems both unfounded and inconsistent.
The job of city commissioners is a daunting task that involves hours of diligent work dealing with the minutiae that accompanies running a city. When not in meetings, city commissioners must spend countless hours pondering about the issues of Lawrence. To approve any city expenditure, a commissioner might spend days determining whether the city should spend its money. Unfortunately, it appears that the same
The elected officials' pay increase is out of step with comparable city goverments.
detailed analysis was not employed by commissioners when they decided to give themselves raises.
Perhaps there was a need to increase commissioners' salaries. Bob Moody, outgoing commissioner and main proponent of the plan, said that a $3,000 increase was not a magical number but merely appeared to be a reasonable sum.
a population of about 65,500. St. Joseph, Mo., which has a population of about 71,500 pays its city commissioners $1,800. The seven members of the Olathe City Council earn a yearly salary of $5,400 for serving a population of about 83,000.
More than being poorly thought out, the proposal does not seem to be in line with what other cities of comparable size and economic base. Lawrence has
Simply put, citizens always should be leery when elected officials decide to give themselves a raise. The explanation for the raise should have been more clear and as watchful citizens, Lawrence residents should have challenged the increase.
As city commission elections approach, voters can share their views through the power of the vote. By asking candidates how they stand on this issue, we can ensure that our tax dollars are not wasted on the increase.

And who do these tree-huggers and peaceanbis rally in 1999? Tinky Winky the Teletubby and swearing canoeists from Michigan. I suppose we should become alarmed if they start harping about reopening the investigation into the JFK assassination
Jeremy Doherty

Hard times have befallen this ideology. One wonders what happened to the liberals who fought for political and economic reforms and civil rights for the disenfranchised. Their pet causes as of late hardly smack of revolution or, at least, "sticking it to The Man."
Take the case of the foul-mouthed canoeist, an absurd tale that has attracted national scrutiny.
Last August, Timothy Boomer of Standish, Mich., took a tumble from his canoe while traipsing through the state's Rifle River. For some reason — spilled beer or ice-cold water, perhaps — the 24-year-old Boomer exploded with a flood of four- and 12-letter obscenities.
The problem? Boomer's harangue was delivered within earshot of a woman and her kids, and a county sheriff's deputy promptly cited the guy with violating a 102 year-old state statute barring profanity in front of children.
The American Civil Liberties Union has been arguing on Boomer's behalf, calling the 1897 law vague and an infringement on its client's free speech rights. Last week, a district court judge ruled that Boomer will have to stand trial for his boorish behavior, to which I say, bravo.
The ACLU isn't convinced, however, that it's jumped behind a loser of a case. After the judge's ruling, Legal Director Mark Steinberg he would waste no time appealing.
"If the speech police can convict Tim Boomer for swearing in front of children when he didn't even know the children were there," Steinberg said.
"then they can convict a mother and father for slipping and swearing in front of their children."
If any parent were to behave in such a disgraceful fashion in front of their impressionable kids, whether in public or private, I think they should be lucky to get away with a mere fine. Burning at the stake probably would be a more fitting punishment.
I'm isn't a free speech question. This is about some dot who disrupted the peace and now is trying to hide behind a bogus First Amendment claim to duck a $100 fee. I'd take this more seriously, but I've yet to quit snickering about it, to be honest.
Even more funny is how liberals jump at the chance to crucify one of their favorite whipping boys. Rev. Jerry Fallwell.
Last week, Falwell clued us all in to the homosexuality oriented conspiracy running rampant in the children's program Teletubbies.
According to an article published in Falwell's monthly magazine, National Liberty Journal, the character Tinky Winky is a play to expose children to a homosexual agenda.
"The character, whose voice is obviously that of a boy, has been found carrying a red purse in many episodes and has become a favorite character among gav groups worldwide," the article posits.
China has 100 missiles pointed at Taiwan. Jordan struggles with the loss of King Hussein and the U.S. Senate finally has reached a conclusion to the Clinton impeachment trial. Has there been any meaningful debate on these and other issues — issues that actually have an impact on the lives of millions?
But defenders of the program's noble virtues point out that Tinky Winky's "purse" is nothing more than a "magic bag." Someone, please tell me that we're not having this debate.
Of course not. It clearly is more rewarding to attack the blatherers of someone such as Falwell, who looks nuttier and nuttier each time he opens his mouth.
But that appears to be what librarians want to do — go after Falwell and the rights-trampling officials who won't let Timothy Boomber swear in front of children.
These are delicate times. With the impeachment debacle finally behind us, it's time for everyone, liberals and conservatives alike, to quit hiding behind self-serving sound bytes and phony claims of fascism. Jerry Fallwell and Timothy Boomer will not outlast Saddam Hussein, Social Security and Kosovo. More than ever, our full attention is needed.
Tinky Winky would want it that way.

This mystical threat found at the
bottom of a forwarded list of pick-up lines scared me. That's a lot of cyberpressure to have placed on my love life.
The list was forwarded to me by Mark, a concerned reader, in response to my last column. I had asked anyone with a good or funny pick-up line to e-mail it to me.
So, after sending out six copies of the forward — why risk it, right? — I sat down to read the rest of mv malls. They were

e-mails. They were all good. There were also a lot of them.
With intentions ofreplying to them all, I turned on my Discman and sat down at the keyboard to thank everyone for their responses. But while responding to one, two more came down the pipes. E-mails were coming fast, the typing was giving me carpal-tunnel, and wailing in my own fame was giving me a big head.
so, I decided to give it up before my hands fell off and my head exploded. To everyone out there in Cool People Land who liked my column and responded, "Right on."
"What?" asked the girl sitting at the computer next to me.
"Uh . . . write on, I said. "Do you have something I could write on?"
"Sure," she said. "Here, have a taco."
"Thanks," I said. Did she just offer me a taco? Oh, well. But I've wasted enough space on niceties and frivolous dialogue. Let's hit the mail sack.
Readers sent in many good pick-up lines. And when I say good, I mean funny or original, but not necessarily the opposite of evil. Some of those disgusting lines only could have had been composed by the hand of Satan. Good job.
But alas, only 3 percent of the pick-up lines submitted could be published. I pride myself on
Selection No. 1 (13 submissions): "If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?"
not including in my columns jokes alluding to illegal drug use, sadomasochism, sexually active giants (no matter how jolly or green) or the chancellor. I should mention here, however, that one submission included all four. Here are the three most frequent printable submissions, graded and complete with content analysis
Though it sounds nice as a song (and it is), it has become overused and, let's be honest here, it's even more cheesy then your typical cheese pick-up line. I give it a C-.
selection No. 2 (seven submissions): "You look like someone I should know/meet."
Though similar to the first line in that it relies on dual meaning for effect, this phrase is much better. Instead of a play on words, it expresses emotional honesty. You're not being a mack when you use it. This line really isn't a line. It's honestly cloaked in humor. I can dig that. Submission two, you get an A.
Selection No. 3 (three submissions): You walk up to a girl, stare her up and down (never go down first), bite your lower lip and say,
"Hello...so what do ya' think, can I buy you breakfast in the morning?"
No play on words here. This is just a plain-and-simple proposition, using something similar to scientific method. First, the guy takes in the girl's appearance (collecting data). Second, he begins with "Hello" (an expression of his hypothesis, shortened from "Hello, hottie: you don't look very smart"). Third, he invites her to stay the night with him (experiment). The conclusion is one of two things: She goes home with him, proving his hypothesis, or she responds in a negative manner by spitting on him, asking him to ro-sham-bo her for it — South Park allusion — or just by saying no.
Before I run out of space. I just wanted to say thanks to everyone who sent in lines, words of encouragement or just well-written letters. I swear some of them were funnier than anything I've written. Oh, and thanks for cheering me on, Aimee.

Concealed weapons lead to less crime
Tuesday's editorial about Kansas House Bill 2240 (concealed carry of weapons) is awash in rhetoric and is misleading. True, crime rates have been dropping nationwide. However, according to the FBI, in the 31 states with right-to-carry laws, the violent crime
rate is significantly lower than those states not affording their citizens their Second Amendment guaranteed rights.
Allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons will not create an "atmosphere of fear." States such as Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas have right-to-carry laws. Do you feel an atmosphere of fear when visiting there? Carrying concealed weapons is not vigilante justice,
but rather an option for people who feel the need to take additional actions to protect themselves. It surely will not lead to a return of the Wild West, when weapons were carried openly. Coincidently, it is legal in Kansas to carry a handgun, as long as carried openly.

Lent tough for busy students
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
Kevin Schumm will quit smoking cigarettes — at least for the next 40 days. Schumm, Overland Park junior, is one of many Christian students making a sacrifice for Lent, which began yesterday with Ash Wednesday.
"I'm giving up smoking because I need to quit and because it's a good sacrifice that I can make for God," Schumm said. "I'm also going to try to treat everyone as if each day could be my last because there is no room for regrets in life."
Schumm said he had hoped to attend a late Ash Wednesday service because classes take up much of his time. His two jobs take up the rest.
However, because of last night's men's basketball game at 8:05, the St. Lawrence Catholic Center, 1631 Crescent Rd., did not hold its usual 7:30 and 10 p.m. services. Instead, it had 7:30 a.m. and 12:10 p.m. services at the center and a 5:30 p.m. service at the Lied Center.
"We knew that the parking lot at St. Lawrence would probably be used for the basketball game," said Tracy English, public relations manager for the center. "That's why we tried to get a larger audience at 5:30 p.m.
at the Lied Center. This is the first year we've ever had services there."
Pat Lechtenberg, pastoral minister at St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church, 1229 Vermont St., said she did not think Ash Wednesday services should be canceled because of conflicting events. St. John's had their usual service at 7 last night.
"We try to accommodate people who have had class or have been working all day," Lechtenberg said. "Getting to the service is what is considered a priority."
St. John's had services at 7 and 8:45 a.m. and at 12:15 and 7 p.m.
Corpus Christi Catholic Church,
1100 Kasold Drive, had services at 7 a.m. and at 12:10 and 7 p.m.
The Ash Wednesday holiday dates back to 300 A.D. when Christians who committed a public sin had to engage in public penance before they would be allowed back into the congregation. That person would be marked with ash on his or her forehead on Ash Wednesday and would not be allowed back into the church until Easter, which celebrates the Christian belief in the resurrection of Jesus Christ.
"The Catholic Church is very communal. Everyone in the church would be praying for the person to get back into the
church. The holiday evolved so that the entire congregation would engage in penance to give support to those who had committed public sins," said the Rev. Vince Krische of St. Lawrence.
Ash Wednesday services end with the symbolic marking of each congregation member with a cross from the ashes of burnt palm leaves. The time from Ash Wednesday to Easter is the 40-day Lent period, which means springtime.
"Easter is a celebration of new life but for new life to grow in all of us there has to be a preparation period," Krische said. "Lent is a time to rid ourselves of self-centeredness and egoism that we're all guilty of. We all need it because we're all sinners."
Krische said that what people choose to give up is a personal choice.
Nicole Schnellbacher, Topeka sophomore, said she was going to give up soda.
"It's something I have all the time. It's definitely my weakness," Schnellbacher said. "This way I can try to remind myself that I need to have some will power and that if you really put your mind to something you can accomplish it."

Online enrollment has no deadline
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
Student senators want University of Kansas administrators to guarantee that online enrollment will be available for KU students by fall 2001.
"Everything's going according to plan," Morrell said. "But it's too early to give a best guess about when the system will be implemented."
He said that the PeopleSoft system was divided into six distinct components: catalog of courses, timetable, assessment, collection, Web enrollment and financial aid.
One University official says that PeopleSoft — the computer software that the University has purchased to make online enrollment possible — is too complex for such a guarantee to be made.
Because of the complexity of the system, Morrell said Internet-based enrollment would be the last part of the program to take effect.
Morrell said his team was placing more emphasis on the quality of the product than on the speed of implementation.
Rich Morrell, University registrar, who is in charge of implementing PeopleSoft, said that he wasn't comfortable setting a deadline for compi- tion of the project.
"There's a high priority on making it a good product." he said.
In the meantime, the University will continue to use Leacy, its existing enrollment software.
Morrell said he was disappointed that online enrollment had been a campaign issue in the Spring 1998 elections because he said that students didn't understand what was involved in implementing the system.
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said that the reason online enrollment had been a campaign issue was because it still was not guaranteed to students.
Matt Dunbar, senior holdover senator, was happy with the information Senate had received from Morrell.
"We'd like to see it happen quicker, but we understand where they're coming from," Dunbar said.

Tom Moore, campus director for Student Legislative Awareness Board, said that he was dubious about the lack of a definite time frame for the project.
He said that he thought the project was being slowed by bureaucracy and that people in the registrar's office were afraid of losing their jobs to online enrollment.
Diane Goddard, University comptroller and assistant to the associate provost, disagreed with that assessment.
Goddard said that to the best of her knowledge no one would have to fear for their jobs because of PeopleSoft.

The exposed earth surface is surrounded by a mesh or netting, which is likely used for reinforcing the structure or providing protection against debris. There are several pipes or cables stacked on top of the earth. A worker appears to be using a machine to move or lift the earth, possibly to facilitate further digging or to lay down materials. The overall scene suggests an ongoing construction project involving earthwork and structural elements.

Protesters attempt to take consulate, three Kurds killed
The Associated Press
BERLIN—Israeli security guards shot and killed three Kurds who forced their way into the Israeli consulate yesterday with dozens of protesters enraged by reports that Israel aided in the arrest of the foremost Kurdish rebel leader.
Turkish officials released a video tape of their captive, Abdullah Ocalan, dramatic footage showing him handcuffed and sweating, his eyes tapped shut. Officials said he was being interrogated in an island prison and promised a fair
trial, but refused to allow three of his foreign attorneys into Turkey.
In Berlin, as many as 100 demonstrators pummeled their way past 30 German police officers sent to the Israeli consulate 30 minutes earlier after officials received reports that Kurds planned to take the building, police chief Hagen Saberschinsky said.
The Kurds climbed a fence surrounding the four-story white building and broke through the door. A man and a woman were shot to death in the consulate's foyer, and another man was shot in a stairwell.

Win is 15th straight against'Cats
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas coach Roy Williams usually puts three thoughts on the chalkboard before each game.
But in the locker room prior to last night's pivotal game with in-state rival Kansas State, Williams put only one.
"Lose yourself in the game," Williams said. "I think our best games of the year have happened when we have been able to go out and do that."
The Jayhawks followed Williams' advice and simply went out and played the game.
"Sometimes a lot of us have a habit of not really having a good time out there, and we think a little too much," Robertson said. "Tonight our game plan was to lose ourselves in the game and just have fun."
The Jayhawks did just that as they ended a two-game losing streak after defeating Kansas State for the 15th straight time.
on three out of 16 shots and turned the ball over 15 times.
After holding the Wildcats to 31 percent shooting from the field in their win in Manhattan earlier this season, the Jayhawks once again used a tenacious, trapping defense to harass the Wildcats. Kansas State shot a dismal 31 percent from the field, 18 percent from three-point range
"When we get out on the floor and defend people we are a very,very good team," Robertson said.
The Jayhawks received an enormous boost from their perimeter players last night, as the perimeter players combined to score 50 of the teams 62 points. Reserve swing-man Ken Gregory led the Jayhawks with 19 points, Ryan Robertson contributed 14 and Jeff Boschee scored all 13 of his points in the first half as the Jayhawks improved to 178 overall and 9 in the Big 12.
"I think they won the game for us"
Kansas center Eric Chenowith said of his backcourt mates. "The combination of our great defense and them hitting big shots, that put the game away for us."
After nine lead changes in the games first 14 minutes, the Jayhawks went on a 16-2 run to go into intermission with a 34-21 lead. Kansas guard Jeff Boschece scored 10 of his 13 points in the spurt, including a deen three-pointer with four seconds left.
Kansas State stormed out of the gate in the second half by scoring seven straight points and trimmed the Jayhawks lead to 34-28.

Gregory leads team, 'Hawks uphold streak against'Cats
By Erin Thompson Kansas sports editor
Kansan sports editor
It's a simple idea. Kenny Gregory has a big game, Kansas wins.
Are the two directly correlated? Judging from Gregory's 19-point performance in last night's Kansas 62-47 drubbing of instate rival Kansas State, one might think they are.
Two of Gregory's points came at one of the most intense moments of the game. K-
State had cut the once-16-point Kansas lead to five points at 51-46. With the shot clock running down Gregory drove the basket, made an athletic layup and was fouled. He converted the free throw and the 'Hawks had a 54-46 link.
"That was a huge basket," Kansas forward T.J. Pugh said. "You couldn't find any better move."
Gregory: Had 19 points in last night's game
On the next possession Gregory again came through for the Jayhawks. It began as a similar-looking play: Gregory drove the basket, pulling the defense with him, and dished the ball out to Bradford, who converted a jumper. Kansas lead 56-46 and K-State never got any closer.
Gregory had struggled in the three games before last night's, scoring a total of only 11 points. Fighting a sore back made it hard for Gregory to compete.
Gregory said the pain in his back the last few weeks had not been as bad as it was last season, but it did affect him.
"It was bothering me. It was affecting my conditioning." Gregory said. "I didn't want to score it as an excuse. I just tried to play through it."
The pain in his back didn't bother him on the tide-turning play.
"It was a big time play." Kansas coach Roy Williams said. "To have that agility and ability to do that is important. I thought he hurt his back on that. I would have hurt mine."
Williams said he had told Gregory not to worry about his lack of scoring in the last few games.

Baseball team will take winning record on the road for tournament in Arizona
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team will take its 2-1 record on the road this weekend to play a fourteam, four-game series in Phoenix, Ariz., at the Rawlings Spring Training Tournament.
The team is coming off of a successful opening series in Texas where the Jayhawks defeated the Texas Mavericks in two of
Kansas coach Bobby Randall said that, overall, he was pleased with the play of the team, but that he also saw both good and bad things that they can build from.
Texas-Arlington Mavericks in two of three games.
"We got two excellent pitching performances, from Colin (Call) and Brian (Schriner), and those won the two games." Randall said.
Kansas
Baseball
State appeared in relief during the first game and pitched three scoreless innings while facing the minimum of nine batters.
Call, a senior transfer from Arizona
Based on that powerful performance, Call is slated to start game one, today at 1 p.m., in Phoenix against the Nevada Wolf Pack. Call said that starting was simply one of his many roles which he was willing to fill to help the team win.
"Whatever role comes is fine with me," Call said. "I just feel blessed and keep working hard. There's a lot of talent on this staff and I'm excited about this opportunity."
Randall says that overall the team's execution is getting better and they are playing well defensively, especially for this early in the season.
The midday, which includes two eliminated in the outfield, will remain virtually the same. Jason Appuhn, who hit .455 in Arlington and Matt Van Alsburg, who owns the team's only home run, are again scheduled to start, and now expected to contribute.
As for games two and three, Randall is unsure who will start, and said that junior Rusty Philbrick and senior Chris Williams are likely candidates, but if they are needed earlier, he will put them in.

the first few games out of the way, I can't use immaturity anymore. I've got to step up."
The infield has pleased Randall, especially defensively. Seniors Sparky Wilhelm and Chad King played well at the corners. And the middle infielders, sophomores John Nelson and Brandon O'Neal, with the exception of one bad inning, played solid.
Randall said he felt good with where the team was at right now and continues to look for improvements in execution.
"It takes effort and quality, if we do those two things well, we're good enough to win," Randall said.

Tennis team heads to championship with momentum
By Amanda Kaschube
The women's tennis team, coming off a recent regional victory, will travel to Madison, Wis., this weekend to compete in the National Women's Team Indoor Championship.
Kansan sportswriter
The event, which the University of Wisconsin will be the host of, will feature the top 16 teams in the country.
Kansas gained a spot in the indoor tournament by winning the Central Region Championship last fall and by advancing to the Sweet 16 in the NCAA tournament last spring.
Coach Jenny Garrity said making the tournament was a big accomplishment for the team.
Kansas, ranked No. 17, will face seventh-ranked Ole Miss today in the first round.
"Our goal in the fall was to earn a berth in this tournament. We are very excited," she said. "It's a great honor to be invited to such a prestigious event."
"Ole Miss is an extremely winnable match for us," Garrity said.
He said that the team had a lot of confidence going into the match, following the team's 9-0 sweep of Brigham Young University last weekend.
A possible rematch with Duke could occur in the quarter finals on Saturday. Duke beat Kansas 9-0 on Jan. 30.
Another Big 12 Conference team, Texas, was invited but declined the invitation.
Kris Sell, Moorestown, N.J., senior, will lead the team at No. 1 singles. She recently moved up from No. 25 to No. 18 in the national rankings.
Sell, with a 18-7 record, upset No. 4 Mirela Vladulescu from Alabama-Birmingham at the Roles
"The Rolex is a really hard tournament to move up in because the talent level is so high," Garrity said. "I feel that she is as good as any other player in the country."
The team will also look to freshmen Christi Wagenaar, South Africa, and sisters Cheryl and Lisa Malliaah. North Longwood, Fla., for some wins.
Indoor Championship two weeks ago.
"Her highest priority is to do the best she can so she can help her team." Garrity said. "She's not concerned with her individual effort."
Despite her wins in the singles area, Garrity said Sell was more concerned with the team effort.
"The freshmen have been playing awesome lately," Sell said.
Garrity agreed.
Cheryl Malliah, 12-9 this season, has had singles wins against BYU, Maryland and Georgia Tech.
"They might be a little nervous in such a big tournament, but they will turn it into added focus, not tension." Garrity said.
"The Team Indoors will be a new experience and a lot of tough competition," Malliaah said.
Julia Sidorova, Latvia junior, and Monica Sekulov,
Australia sophomore have also played well recently.
Both had singles and doubles wins against BYU last weekend.
Garrity said the team was looking to keep the same level of excitement that the team showed last weekend.
"We are just going to play our game, not the ball," she said. "We're not going to let down at all."
Past tournament winners Stanford, Georgia and Florida will also be there.

You'll need to learn about money this year. Whether you have too much or not enough depends on how you manage it. Not to worry. You have all the resources you need to become fabulously wealthy. Do it by selling an idea in March. Study through April but don't squander your abundance. Love could show up during June and July so schedule your rendezvous then. Hire a builder for your dream in August. Get what you want just by asking nicely in November. A change in December may be good or bad depending on your attitude.
Taurus (April 20-May 20] — Today is a 5
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Today is a 7

Do just a little more planning today.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — Today is a 5
The sun is going into Pisces. Teamwork is going to be

all by yourself.

You might even get a raise out of the deal, if you're
properly respectful and obedient.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Today is a 7
This is the first day the sun is in Pisces. Its effects should start to become noticeable, but it's a little difficult to tell because the moon in Aries makes you feel so vibrant and alive. You could be dreaming of setting sail for the South Pacific with some of your closest friends.

Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) — Today is a 5
Looks like a strong, assertive type is trying to get your attention. That's OK with you. You kind of like that sort of person. You'd rather draw people to you than go running after them that's a technique that seems to work well for you.
Scrapbook (Oct. 24 - Jan. 27)
The work is finally starting to come in and there's plenty of it. You're going to have to move quickly in order to keep up. Your mind may still be on your personal life, but you're going to have to set aside for a little while. An assignment takes first priority.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) — Today is a 6
There's no shortage of love now. You might have more than you know what to do with. What you'd like to do is run off together to distant places. Make the commitment to each other first. That's where you'll get the strength to persevere

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18 — today is a 6
You're learning quickly today, and if you were wise,
you'll still be learning about money. That will be your
theme for the next several weeks. You'll probably
have less pocket change because you've thought of
new ways to spend it, so be careful. Instead of having
more through a recent benefit, you could actually
wind up with less.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Today is a 5
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) — Today is a 5
You're feeling more intelligent, or at least more curious. You're interested in what's going on around you and you'll be asking lots of questions. You might even cause a bit of disruption around your house tonight. There is some resistance, but that's OK.
Pictures (见19-18 March 2015) TODAY is 10 AM.
You feel like spending money today, and because you love to buy presents for everybody, that's the first thing that comes to mind. You see how many people need things you could provide and that's just exactly what you want to do. Don't spend more money than you have. Save enough for food and rent.

O.J. Simpson's Heisman auctioned for $230,000
The proceeds would barely put a scratch in the $33.5 million judgment owed to the estate of Simpson's ex-wife and the family of Goldman, said Gary Caris, a lawyer for the Goldmans.

The judgment stemmed from a civil wrongful death suit in which a jury found Simpson liable for the killings of his ex-wife and Goldman. Simpson was acquitted of murder in a criminal trial.

Australian exceeds butterfly world record
MALMO, Sweden — Susie O'Neill of Australia shattered swimming's oldest record yesterday, breaking the 200-meter butterfly world record with a 2:05.37 time in a World Cup short course meet.
O'Neill, 25, improved on the 2:05.65 record set by Mary T. Meagher of the United States Jan. 2, 1981, at Gainesville, Fla., by .28 of a second.
"I had no idea I was on world-record pace tone," she said. "I couldn't believe I had broken the record when I got out of the pool. It was so noisy during the race. I thought the fans were cheering for the Danish girl. Later I understood that the fans wanted to see a world record. It was a great atmosphere to compete in."
O'Neill, the reigning Olympic and world champion, finally achieved the world record nearing the end of her career.

Pittsburgh Penguins want lease leverage
The team filed a lawsuit in Allegheny County Court in an attempt to break a commitment the Penguins made in 1997 to stay in the Civic Arena for 10 years. That promise was in exchange for $12.9 million in publicly funded improvements to the building.
But team officials said in court papers that they didn't necessarily want to move the Penguins, just apply pressure on Philadelphia-based SMG, the company that operates the publicly owned Civic Arena for Allegheny County and Pittsburgh.

Big 12 track finale requires dedication
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
As the most important meet of the indoor season approaches, sophomore hurdler Eric Patterson has developed an aggressive mindset.
"It's been set for the whole season, but now it's more intense," said Patterson, Long Beach, Calif., sophomore.
The Big 12 Indoor Championships this weekend at Kansas State University is the focal point for the men's and women's track team during the indoor season. The last two months have been spent in an all-out effort to shine at race time.
But do athletes prepare differently for this race than they do for any other?
"I don't do anything different physically," said Kevin McGinn, Emporia senior. "But it is a different kind of mindset. I'll try to not get too excited early in the week. I want to save that for Friday."
MARK A. HARTLEY
Though their mental attitude may change.
Schwartz: Going to watch how the athletes prepare
Patterson and McGinn said they tried to maintain the routine approach they've used all season.
A steady diet of carbohydrates such as bread, pasta and chicken remain their main source of energy.
Athletes try to balance their studies, and they try to get to bed before midnight on weekdays, Patterson and McGinn said.
These kinds of preparations separate an experienced athlete from an
TRACK AND FIELD
inexperienced one, coach Gary
shwartz said.
"It's always interesting to see how people prepare," he said. "Some are immature as athletes, they just let things happen to them and it shows in their performance. The kids who focus in and plan tend to do a little bit better."
The women's and men's teams will lower the difficulty of practices, but raise the intensity level.
"I'll focus on technique and speed, but we do back off to ensure that our legs are fresh." Patterson said.
McGinn will be limited in practice because of a foot injury he suffered two weeks ago.
"The injury won't keep me from racing well." he said.
Patterson and McGinn are among the favorites in their respective events this weekend.
McGinn, who has won the mile two times this year, will try an approach not far from controlled desperation.
"I'm going to do anything to make the finals," he said. "But when I'm there, I'll just react to the race and then be ready to kick at the end."
McGinn said he expected his con-
didence to benefit him this weekend.
"Last year I was just hoping to run a good time. Now, I'm confident enough in my abilities to know that I can win," he said.
Patterson agreed.
"Last year I was just kind of winging it." he said.
"Being more experienced and knowing what to expect gives me lots of confidence. People want to beat me but that's hard to do."
Top 'fore' positions on golf team filled
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas men's golf team may provide a breath of fresh air for an athletic department that has been hit this year with some disappointing seasons.
The Jayhawks return their top three golfers from last spring, and are set to run a match at the NCAA Championships, June 2-5 at Chaska, Minn.
"We did all right in the fall, but not as well as we should have."
KU
golf
COACH Ross
Randall
said. "If we
play well,
we will be
OK. We
have a lot
m or e
depth, and
we know
who our top four are. There is a lot of competition for positions five to seven, and my deal is to pick the right combination."
Among the returnees is senior All-American Chris Thompson, who has participated in two NCAA Championships. Thompson won the Kansas Invitational in the fall with an average-round score of 70.
Thompson has won three individual titles in his years of playing golf at Kansas, but none of them in the spring schedule.
Thompson said that he started well in the fall season,but he gradually got worse.
"I think that's a little more coincidence than anything," he said. "The spring schedule may be a little tougher because in the fall you've been playing in the summer. In the spring you start from
scratch, so to speak."
Randall said that Thompson and junior Ryan Vermeer have been playing better than everyone else, and that they will be the Jayhawks top-two golfers.
"The first two or three tournaments could be real competitive, and it will help the players secure their spots," he said. "Ryan is really pushing Chris right now. In one poll, Ryan is actually rated ahead of Chris."
Another top returner is junior Brad Davis, who had the third-best stroke average during the 1997-98 season. He said that he thought the Jayhawks were loaded for the spring and that they could do well.
"Last year we were a couple of strokes from nationals," he said. "I think we have three players ranked in the top 175 nationally, so we should be OK. Once we find our fifth man we'll be effective."
Davis also said that the competition has been tight in practice.
"We push each other quite a bit," he said. "We beat each other in practice.
As for the Big 12 Conference race, Randall said that he doesn't want to worry about it. That's perhaps because Oklahoma State has won 37 of the past 41 conference titles, and the Cowboys are poised to win their third consecutive Big 12 crown.
"We don't want to worry about Oklahoma State." Randall said. "It would take a lot to unseat them. We will see them twice and it will be interesting to see how we stack up with them. But we don't need to worry about them. Our goals are to do well in conference and to advance to nationals and make the cut there."
Women's soccer signing adds to team restructure
Kansan sportswriter
By Chris Wristen
Bridget Goyen, Brianna Valento and Nikki Wahle signed national letters of intent to join the Jayhawks.
The Kansas women's soccer team added some building blocks toward the restructuring of their program this week with the signing of three prized recruits.
"When they were still interested, even after the coaching change, we continued to pursue them," said Mark Francis, head coach.

Now Gowen will be a Javhawk.
Apparently the pursuit paid off, as Goven's case shows.
All three players excel at the

Goyen, who plays midfield in addition to defense, is a two-time All-State selection from James E. Taylor High School in Katy, Texas. She's been a varsity starter since her freshman year and an All-District selection every season.
Cretin-Derham Hall in St. Paul, Minn. She has been an All-Conference selection for four years and led her team to a fourth-place finish at the state tournament in 1997.
The only local signee so far is Wahle. She is an All-State, All-Sunflower league and All-Metro selection from Shawnee Mission West High School in Overland Park. The six-foot sweeper helped her Alliance United Club Team win back to back Kansas State Cup Championships.
Each woman brings high hopes to Kansas, and each will try to make her presence known.
"I'm hoping to have a winning record," Goyen said. "I'd like to come in and start and make an impact on this team. I'd like to eventually be ranked in the Top 20."

Chiefs' Carter opts for Denver Broncos $38 million contract
The Associated Press
DENVER – The Denver Broncos' acquisition of Dale Carter not only makes him the highest-pair cornerback in NFL history
The Broncos and Carter reached an agreement Tuesday for a 6-year, $38 million contract that includes an $8 million signing bonus.
paid corner back in NEHISTORY — it also may mean the end of safety Steve Atwater's career in Denver.
Carter, 29, was the top prize in this year's free-agent class, and by signing him, the Broncos showed their commitment to trying to win a third straight Super Bowl.
PACIFIC CITY
“As you can see, we're very serious about a three-peat,” said Pat Bowlen.
Broncos owner. Tuesday night.
Broncos owner, Tuesday night,
Carter, a No. 1 pick by the
Kansas City Chiefs in 1992, was
named to start in four straight
Pro Bowls from 1994-97 and was
an unrestricted free agent. The
Chiefs could have matched Denver's offer, but chose not to do so.
"It was too large," said Carl Peterson, Kansas City general manager. "It's an amazing contract. I'm surprised at the numbers."
To free up space under the league's salary cap to sign Carter, the Broncos released Atwater yesterday, who was scheduled to count nearly $3.3 million against Denver's salary cap next season.
Atwater, 32, played in eight Pro Bowls, but he has been bracing for his exit from Denver since being replaced on passing downs this past season.
The Broncos said that after Atwater has explored all of his options, it was possible Atwater could return to the Broncos for
the 1999 season.
Carter's signing bolsters a pass defense that has been the Broncos' sole weakness.
The signing also means that Bronco's cornerback Darrion Gordon will be playing elsewhere in 1999. Gordon, exposed in the expansion draft but not claimed, was allowed to become an unrestricted free agent after starting for two seasons at right cornerback.
The Chiefs, who now have lost free agents Carter, Neil Smith and Keith Trayler to the Broncos in the past two seasons, immediately began wooing Gordon.
Carter, 6-foot-1 and 188 pounds,
had a sub-par season in 1998
because of a broken forearm he
suffered Nov. 1. He is a proven
cornerback who has the speed to
blanket any receiver and the
strength to make any tackle.
"It isn't like this is a big shock to me." Atwater said. "When they were taking me out of games, that said something right there. They had needs to address. I have nothing but great things to say about my time in Denver. It was 10 great seasons."
Carter comes to a Broncos team that often has feuded with the Chiefs, and in one instance he was at the center of a dispute.
Kansan Classified
Broncos coach Mike Shanahan said he spoke with Atwater before Atwater was released.
While playing wide receiver in 1996, Carter injured Denver cornerback Lionel Washington with a block to the knees. The Broncos used the play as evidence that Kansas City receivers blocked with the intent to injure.
Carter had 54 tackles and two interceptions last year. He was one of two active players, along with Dallas Cowboys' Deion Sanders, to score touchdowns on a punt return and interception return and as a wide receiver.

'Hawks end losing streak
Continued from page 1B
The stage was set for another Kansas melt down when the Wildcats capped a 13-2 run with two three-pointers and cut the lead to 51-44 with 3:44 remaining in the game.
But Robertson and Gregory combined to score 11 points as the Jayhaws used a 15-5 spurt of their own to seize the 'Hawks biggest lead of the game, 16 points, at 49-33.
"We got in the huddle with three minutes when they made that little run and said we're going to take care of business," Robertson
said. "We kept our heads, got some good shots, defended the heck-out of them and made our free throws and we were able to win."
Robertson hit all four of his free throws down the stretch and the Jayhawks sealed the win with an 11-1 run which ended the game.
Although Chenowith was held scoreless for the first time since last season's NCAA tournament loss to Rhode Island, he was still a force in the paint. The 7-0 sophomore grabbed a game-high 14 rebounds and tied his career-high with seven blocked shots.
"Coming into the game I wasn't
shooting well, and then I missed a couple shots," Chenowith said. "I had a lot of energy and enthusiasm so I just channeled into playing defense."
Forward Manny Dies paced Kansas State with 14 points and 10 rebounds and forward Ayome May was the only other Wildcat in double-fixtures with 10.
Robertson and fellow senior T.J. Pugh have never lost to Kansas State in their four years.
"They're an arch-rival so it says a lot about this team to say that we beat them every time we played them," Robertson said.
Gregory played through back pain

"A lot of people have written him off," Williams said. "But Kenny and I had a nice little conversation the other day. I told him I'm never giving up on him, as long as he keeps trying."
With his 19 points, Gregory scored in double digits for the first time since Feb. 1, the last time Kansas faced K-State. In the last meeting between the
two conference rivals, Gregory scorched the Wildcats for 16 points and eight rebounds.
Gregory said after losing the home-game winning streak against Iowa and seeing the end of several other streaks this season, it was important to the Jayhawks to not lose the 14-game winning streak against K-State.
"Just knowing in the back of your mind that they haven't
beat KU in such a long time—we just want to keep that streak alive," Gregory said. "We've lost a couple of streaks this season. But I think we can be proud of keeping this one alive."
Jeff Boschee, freshman point guard, said he was impressed with Gregory's game.
"Kenny played an all-around great game tonight," Boschee said.

Sports agent sues former UMass player
WATERBURY, Conn. — A would-be sports agent who claims he was supposed to represent Marcus Camby is suing him after spending $40,000 on gifts for the player.
John Lounsbury filed his breach-of-contract lawsuit last month against Camby, now with the New York Knicks, and his agents, ProServ of Washington.
Lounsbury says Camby demanded money and gifts, including rental cars and jewelry, between October 1994 and April 1996 in exchange for a promise that Lounsbury would be Camby's agent once he turned professional after leaving the University of
Massachusetts.
Damages will be determined by a jury if the lawsuit goes to trial.
In June 1996, UMass alerted the NCAA that Camby may have committed violations by accepting cash and expensive jewelry from agents, including Lounsbury.
UMass was stripped of its 1996 NCAA regional championship and was forced to return the money it earned by making it to the Final Four of the NCAA tournament.
In December 1997, Lounsbury agreed not to act as a sports agent for five years.

House committee cuts raises for faculty
(USPS 650-640)
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
TOPEKA — A state legislative subcommittee dealt a $1.5 million blow yesterday to the Board of Regents' drive for an increase in faculty salaries.
In a meeting of the House Appropriations Committee, the Education and Legislative Operations Budget Committee advised cutting a faculty-retention fund recommend by Gov. Bill Graves from $2.5 million to $1 million.
"We did not believe the Regents really made their case," said Rep. Mike Farmer, R-Wichita, budget committee chairman.
In January, Graves disappointed many state higher-education leaders when he released his budget. It contained a 3.5 percent increase in faculty salaries, about half of the 7.6 percent raise the Regents had originally requested.
His $2.5 million fund for retaining top faculty offset officials' frustration, but the budget committee's modifications to Graves' plan would cut an additional $1.5 million.
Explaining the cut, Farmer cited information showing that, on average, 3 percent of faculty at Regents institutions left for reasons other than retirement or termination.
"Even if you assume all the resignations are because of low salaries — and I don't think that's likely — that's still only 3 percent." he said.
"When I look at the numbers, I don't see the problem," Farmer said.
Farmer also said salaries at Regents schools were at 90 percent of average faculty salaries in other states.

Digital opera brings 3-D experience to University's Lied Center stage
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
Some students may be wearing glasses on campus today for reason other than improving their vision.
Monsters of Grace, a digital opera in three dimensions by director/designer Robert Wilson and composer/musician Philip Glass will be presented at 8 p.m. Tuesday in the Lied Center.
To promote the show, student representatives for the Lied Center will be handing out 3-D glasses at random locations on campus, including the SUA, Lied Center and Murphy Hall box offices, said Brad Knauss, assistant director of public relations for the Lied Center.
Students who have a pair of the brightly-colored glasses visible will receive one of 200 vouchers for the show from a secret prize patrol.
Although combining music and visual elements is not exactly ground breaking, Monsters of Grace is more than just an upgraded MTV video.
Jeff Kleiser of Kleiser-Walczak Construction
Co., the team that took on the project, said making the 70-minute digital film that accompanied the music was no small feat.
Kleiser and his partner, Diana Walczak, collaborated with Robert Wilson to produce the final product by taking Wilson's visions and carrying them over to the computer screen.
"This has never been done on such a large scale," Kleiser said. "It has opened new doors for artists and the technology available to them."
The music that accompanies the film will be performed by the Philip Glass ensemble and accompanying vocalists.
Although the music complements the film, it isn't perfectly in sync with the changing visual elements, Kleiser said.
"There are moods and transitions that are related," he said. "It's all imagery designed to work with music in an abstract way."
Although the film is three-dimensional, requiring that members of the audience wear special glasses provided by the Lied Center, it wasn't designed to be a thrill ride, Kleiser said.
"It's almost irresistible to stick something in
your face every minute, and a lot of 3-D films are packed with thrills, but Bob (Wilson) wanted the film to be a place to meditate and relax." he said.
"The images are slow-moving and aesthetically pleasing," he said, describing a scene of a severed human hand recovered by tubes pumping blood into it and a family floating atop the roof of their house. "They're all part of dreamscapes."
But sight isn't the only sense that the work appeals to.
Alex Logan, Lawrence freshman, spent yesterday afternoon listening to Philip Glass recordings in the Murphy Hall music library.
Logan, who had only heard a limited amount of his music, said that Glass' style of music was unique because of its minimalism and its strangeness.
"All the stuff is like philosophy more than music," Logan said. "It's all simplicity."
While looking through record sleeves, Logan noticed that the visual elements that accompanied Glass' music were unusual too.
"The pictures were strange visually with really weird lighting," he said. "It was almost

insane and kind of disturbing."
Logan said that although some of the music baffled him, he was eager to see the show.
"I'm excited because I've never been to something in 3-D," he said. "It's interesting because he is trying to come up with all original material and yet basing it off of minimalism."
Kleiser is pleased with the way the project turned out but said observers shouldn't try to figure out some deep meaning of the work.
"You'd be confused if you tried to find a plot," he said. "Just think of it as going to a museum and seeing different pieces for what they are."

Student associations to celebrate New Year
The Lion dance will ring in the Chinese New Year for several Asian student associations at 7:30 tonight at the Kansas Union Ballroom.
The Malaysian Student Association, the Hong Kong and Macao Student Association and the Chinese Student and Scholar Friendship Association will combine their festivities this year, which will include dancing, a multimedia presentation and folk music.
Frances Tan, president of MSA, said she hoped that the Year of the Rabbit would begin loudly.
"For Chinese, we believe that the louder it is, the better it is to ward off the evil spirits for the New Year," said Tan, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia senior.
Tickets cost $3 for members and $5 for non-members.

Theater's fire alarm set off accidentally
A fire alarm at the Varsity Theater, 1015 Massachusetts St. caused one block of Massachusetts Street to be blocked from 11:38 a.m. to 12:07 p.m. yesterday, said Bill Baskin, battalion chief for the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department.
The alarm was set off when workers, who were remodeling the building, accidently broke a pipe. This set off the sprinklers and the alarm, he said.
KU professor awarded for recycling technique

Research by a KU professor has led to improved pavement recycling techniques.
Stephen Cross, associate professor of civil and environmental engineering, was awarded the Asphalt Recycling and Reclaiming Association's Award for Excellence in Cold In-Place Recycling.
Cold In-Place Recycling is a method whereby pavement can be reconditioned on-site without heat and little new material.
The Kansas Department of Transportation uses this technique on about 100 miles of roadway a year, notably along Interstate 70 in western Kansas.
Since 1992, Cross' research, with the help of the Kansas Department of Transportation and private companies, has focused on discovering more effective additives.
"We've evaluated different additives and fine tuned the process," Cross said. "It's resulted in better, more cost-effective pavement rehabilitation techniques."
Cross will be presented with the award tomorrow at the association's annual meeting in Tempe, Ariz.

Animal rights protesters object to hog farm aid
WASHINGTON — Six animal-rights protesters chained themselves inside the Agriculture Department for more than an hour yesterday morning to protest government subsidies for hog farmers.
Chanting "Jail not bail for pig farmers," the protesters from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals sat on the floor just under the office of Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman. The protesters, still chained together, eventually walked out after officers began lifting them to remove them.
They were taken into custody by officers of the Federal Protective Services, which has jurisdiction over federal buildings. Details of any charges they may face were not available.
Glickman is in South Africa this week
Ginnickman is in South Africa this week. The government last month announced a $50 million aid package for pork farmers, who are receiving record low prices. In December, farmers got as low as $8 to $10 per 100 pounds compared to $45 last year.
Pork producers recently asked for about $500 million more, saying they were still in danger of losing their livelihoods because of low prices.
Administration requires inspections at Boeing
WASHINGTON — Operators of 1,000 older Boeing 727s must inspect skin joints on the aircraft for fatigue cracking and make any necessary repairs, the Federal Aviation Administration
The airworthiness directive was prompted by reports of fatigue cracks in four Boeing 727s operating in the U.S. commercial airline fleet.
ordered yesterday.
It also is an outgrowth of the aging aircraft program begun with the aviation industry in 1988. The program is designed to ensure that aircraft remain as structurally sound throughout their service life as they were when they were originally certified.
The airworthiness directive applies to Boeing 727-100, -100C, -200, -200F, and 727C aircraft, airplanes that have an engine on each side of the tail cone and one built into the tail itself.
The average age of the aircraft is 25 years, or about 38,000 flight cycles
Operators must perform repetitive visual inspections of portions of lower skin lap joint — an area where overlapping sections of the plane are joined — within 15 days or 50 flight cycles, whichever occurs first.
The inspections must be performed prior to accumulation of 40,000 total flight cycles.
In addition, repetitive low frequency eddy current inspections must be performed within 60 days or 300 flight cycles to detect potential small cracks in the fuselage. Eddy current inspections are electronic examinations used to detect cracks not visible to the eye.
EPA pollution regulations to control SUV emissions
WASHINGTON — The Environmental Protection Agency will propose, possibly within days, regulations to dramatically reduce pollution from automobiles including popular sport utility vehicles, according to sources familiar with the proposal.
The draft proposal, which is still subject to review by the White House, also would require cleaner burning gasoline, containing significantly less sulfur, the sources said.
The tougher pollution controls for motor vehicles would be phased in beginning in 2004.
For the first time, popular sport utility vehicles, minivans and pickup trucks would have to meet the same emission standards as automobiles, according to the EPA draft proposal. Currently some SUVs release more than three times as much smog-causing chemicals as cars.
While some details remained to be worked out, the agency is proposing pollution levels for cars and small trucks similar to those that already have been announced in California beginning in 2004, said sources who have been briefed on the general outline of the plan
EPA officials declined to comment Wednesday on the draft proposal, which is expected to be formally announced early in March after White House review. The final rules are to be completed by the end of the year.

U.S. pressuring Serbs by sending planes to Europe
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Dramatizing a threat to bomb the Serbs, the Clinton administration is adding 51 U.S. warplanes to an already powerful attack force in Europe to pressure the Yugoslav government to approve a self-rule plan for Kosovo and to accept NATO peacekeeping troops.
"We want to be in a position to carry out an air operation, should it be requested," Defense Secretary William Cohen said on his arrival early yesterday morning in Seattle on unrelated business.
Cohen told reporters the additional planes — 12 Air Force F-117 stealth fighter-bombers, 10 EA-6B electronic warfare planes and 29 refuelling planes — would begin arriving in Europe this weekend. He said they would be ready for a possible attack by the middle of next week.
Cohen declined to say where in Europe the extra planes would be based. Aviano air base in Italy is one possibility.
The purpose of sending more warplanes is to heighten the threat of force and thereby intimidate Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic into accepting a sixnation plan to end a yearlong conflict between Serb troops and secession-minded ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, a province in the dominant Yugoslav state of Serbia.
So far, Milosevic has defied the United States and five allied governments who have given him until noon Saturday to agree to pull most Serb troops out of Kosovo and see them replaced by some 28,000 NATO peacekeepers, including about 4,000 U.S. troops.
While his Serb negotiators at Rambouillet, France, are showing some interest in the self-rule plan for the Albanian-majority Serbian province, Milosevic is defying the United States and its partners on the peacekeeping operation that would clear the way for a local police force to take charge in Kosovo.

Enrollment figures inch upward from last year's records
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
Enrollment at the University of Kansas this semester barely nudged upward from last spring with an increase of 83 students, or 0.3 percent.
The Board of Regents released its enrollment figures yesterday, which were finalized after the 20th day of classes and reflected fluctuations at Regents schools. The combined enrollment for all University of Kansas campuses was 26,297.
Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett, associate provost, said small enrollment increases were ideal.
"It's easier for us to manage if it's stable," she said. "That means we can predict things like class size and residence hall rooms. We budget based on stability."
Although enrollment is up from last spring, 1,328 students, or 5 percent, left the University after last fall. A drop between the fall and spring semester is normal, McCluskev-Fawcett said.
"Some of those are students who
20th day NUMBERS
were dismissed for academic reasons; some graduated," she said. "Sometimes people leave for financial or personal reasons, or a freshman discovers this just isn't the place for her."
But this year more students staved than usual, she said.
"Typically we retain 92 to 95 percent, so the good news is that we're on the high end of that," she said.
She said one reason retention may be improving was that new student advising and orientation was much more detailed and more focused on academics.
"We'll see the real impact of that in the fall when we see if they come back for their sophomore year," McCluskey-Fawcett said.

Spring 1999 enrollment at all
Regents universities increased by
409 students to 76,036, a 0.5 percent
increase from spring 1998, when
75,627 students were enrolled.
"That's fairly constant," said Barbara Conant, communications director for the Board of Regents.
She said individual campuses could use the enrollment numbers to predict patterns in coming years.
"KU is going to be able to look at law-school trends and med-school trends, things unique to that particular campus," Conant said.
Enrollment for the Lawrence campus, the Edwards Campus in Overland Park and the Capitol Complex in Topeka was 23,900 students this year, compared to 23,848 in 1998.
At the University of Kansas Medical Center in Kansas City, Kan., 2,397 students enrolled this year, compared to 2,366 in spring 1998.
All but two Regents universities showed increases. Fort Hays State University gained the most at 198 students, a 3.8 percent increase. Wichita State University lost 1 student and Emporia State University lost 77, or 1.5 percent.

Chancellor defends KU's stance toward GTAs
Students and faculty debate campus issues at town hall meeting
By Nadia Mustafa
Kanson staff writer
Chancellor Robert Hemenway defended the administration's stance on state legislation regarding Graduate Teaching Assistants last night at a town hall meeting.
Mark Horowitz, Springfield, Mass., graduate student and former president of the GTA coalition, said that the coalition was devastated by the administration's support last semester of a bill that did not uphold GTAs' public employee collective bargaining rights.
He said he wanted Hemenway to promise that he would not support legislation that eliminated GTAs' status as public employees.
"People who are in a position of power like the Chancellor end up
catering to interests that do not necessarily represent students," Horowitz said.
Hemenway said that the administration did not support any bill that eliminated GTAs' public employee status but that he did support a bill regarding health care for GTAs.
He said that GTAs were important to the University of Kansas and that there should not be any animosity between GTAC administrators.
"The administration was not in favor of the GTA union, but that's water under the bridge," Hemenway said. "We should move beyond last year because we disagree about what the University did or did not do. We should instead focus on building a successful relationship."
Ophra Leyser, GTAC co-president said that GTAC had requested time to inform GTAs about the coalition at their orientations for several years, but had been denied repeatedly by the administration.
She said that if Hemenway
wanted to improve the administration's relationship with the coalition, he should grant them the request.
Hemenway said it was a complex issue because GTA orientation was supposed to be only an academic experience.
But he said that because of the right to free assembly, a possible compromise could be to allow the coalition to set up an informative table at orientation.
"We must separate official union activities from University academic activities." Hemenway said.
About 35 students and five faculty members or administrators attended the meeting.
Hemenway said that the University should focus its efforts to provide public services to Kansas residents and create a better learning environment so the campus would not run the risk of becoming obsolete in the future compared to Internet-based education.
he also said that all four KU cames should act as one University
to achieve energy and efficiency.
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said Student Senate had been working on parking, fall break, campus safety, online enrollment, Kansas Union additions, recreation and city and state issues.
Hemenway said that he was in favor of the keg registration law.
Yoder said that he did not think the University should be able to contact students' parents about alcohol offenses.
Both Hemenway and Yoder said they wanted to implement an online enrollment system as soon as possible.
Hemenway reconfirmed the integrity of the University's non-discrimination policy's inclusion of a sexual orientation clause.
Other issues discussed at the meeting included physical renovations to campus, student input in contracts between the University and corporations and the amount of financial aid awarded to National Merit Scholars.

Bulletin board policy limits use, silences student organizations
If students wish to post information on a bulletin board at the University, they must be careful in selecting which bulletin board. Options are limited, and if students choose the wrong board, they could receive either a call from Provost David Shulenburger or a $10 fine.
Since space for posting public information is limited, student organizations often are left without a place to advertise their activities. The provost should either rewrite the policy or develop new alternatives in regulating campus bulletin boards.
Jeannette Johnson, assistant to the provost, said that the bulletin board policy prohibited non-academic material from cluttering areas not designated for public posting. She said that an inundation of paper littered the campus and destroyed the windows, light poles and newspaper boxes on which material was posted. It also required the University to spend
Kiosks,space-sharing policy among changes for consideration,provost's office says.
According to the provost's policy, students and organizations are not allowed to tack their fliers unless the board is designated as a public bulletin board. The classroom bulletin boards, such as those in Wescoe Hall, are reserved strictly for use by faculty, staff and administrators. Such bulletin boards are for posting syllabi and other important class information.
Organizations that choose to illegally post advertisements and fliers are warned first by the office of the provost, then fined if repeated.

post information regarding their activities without fear of penalty.
Johnson said that short-term plans included the addition of more information boards and a clearer designation as to which bulletin boards serve which purpose, academic or public. She also said that she was open to suggestions from students and faculty.
Possible long-term plans include the addition and renovation of information kiosks on campus.
Although such plans are a start, the University should take action immediately. The office of the provost should either implement new bulletin boards in places of frequent student traffic or allow organizations to post events on existing bulletin boards.

Diversity supporters lack strong argument
I presented in the Feb. 2 University Daily Kansan an argument attacking the proposed college diversity requirement. One can understand the diversity proposal in two ways; either in terms of some of the political agendas that lie behind it or as meaning literally what it says. I argued that if one took the diversity proposal as meaning literally what it says, then it would include more

Diversity debate dead for Assembly member
Much has been said in recent days about the U.S. diversity requirement proposal, and there is, no doubt much more that can be said. These
doubt, indeed, now, issues are inherently emotional and, despite what some proponents have claimed, just as inherently controversial.
MARK
Aaron Profitt
Guest columnis
As one who has listened to — literally — hours of discussion in the College Assembly, one who has read much about this issue and one who cares deeply about the state of education in the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, I have very strong feelings about this issue.
The requirement proposal is deeply, terribly flawed, and much of the rhetoric flowing from its backers is serving admirably well as "smoke and mirrors" to obscure the problems.
First, there is the controversy about whether this requirement is political. The two sides never will agree on this point, but a mandatory class dealing with balkanized sectors of a culture — opposed to various shades of one main culture — is by its very nature political. Indeed, if the requirement were not political, it would be a moot point.
For instance, it would be ludicrous to argue that the laboratory science requirement is political, as its content does not remotely touch upon politics. The diversity requirement proposal stipulates that approved courses should concern "issues of inequality, power and justice." If that isn't political, than nothing is. The issue then becomes: Should the University of Kansas force students to study classes emphasizing certain ideological perspectives?
1, for one, say no. Were this requirement to be approved, it would open a Pandora's box, for where could the College then stop? Why not mandate the study of other view-points deemed apropos by certain faculty members or students?
I am not at the University to be told how to view the culture around me; I am here to browse in the marketplace of ideas, taking those ideas I choose to take, not those that the University chooses for me.
I have not had difficulty in acquainting myself with those around me, regardless of their background. And I have had no difficulty in learning about their backgrounds, while sharing with them about mine. I don't believe I need the University to do that; in fact, I think that I have learned about their issues much more effectively while working and living with others, not while sitting in the cloistered classrooms of Mount Oread.
Second, there is the notion that we as students are incapable of learning about others without being taught about them in the classroom.
If what the proponents of the requirement say — that our society is diverse in the extreme — is true, then it's certain that we will all learn about this culture through experience. And experience, clicked though it be, is the best teacher.
Third, this requirement would further burden students who are already far too heavily laden with mandatory classes. Although supporters of the proposal are quick to state — and correctly — that the requirement would not have to add any hours for B.A. and B.G.S. students, they ignore the fact that the requirement would further restrict students' class choice.
Fourth, the proposers of this requirement have been amazingly nonspecific about the details from the beginning. Since the first College Assembly meeting of this academic year, members of the Assembly have been asking for a list of classes currently taught that would fulfill the requirement. Only at the last meeting — more than a semester later — did the requirement's proponents come through with the list — and even then, the list was only classes that might fulfill the requirement.
That will especially make a difference for students like me, who are pursuing two degrees. If the College truly wants to help students then they will find ways to reduce the number of requirement for degrees, not increase it.
More than that, the list, compiled by the dean's office, mysteriously contained history classes that were not turned in by the history chair. More smoke and mirrors.
Proponents have even resorted to mudslinging to defend a weak proposal. This was demonstrated most clearly at the last Assembly meeting, when Professor Doug Denney, chairman of the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and Advising, which drafted the proposal, labeled classics Professor Betty Banks as "mean spirited" for daring to oppose the requirement. As the only students to speak to the issue, I, too, felt the emanating from the requirement's supporters.
No amount of name-calling from the supporters eradicates its problems. No amount of rhetoric changes the fact that this requirement is a sinking ship. No amount of good intention overcomes the errors in this idea.
I have by no means given an exhaustive listing of all the problems with this proposal. I've said nothing about the way different departments will be affected financially, nor have I discussed the internal strife among members of undergraduate studies committee and the ad hoc committee.
And no amount of future work would be able to correct the tragic mistake it would be to approve this policy.

Relationship applications solution for lonely lovers

opinion @ kansan.com
I am accepting applications for a lover. I realize this is a strange tactic, but most of my meaningful relationships have sprung from bizarre acts of desperation.
In high school, my weekends were bare until I became the first student to place a personal ad in the school paper. When I needed a date to prom, I addressed an all-school assembly with my phone number draped across my chest. It may seem like shameless self-exploitation, but it saved me from encountering one iota of face-to-face rejection.

Before I continue with the details of the application process, here's a short biography of myself, graciously contributed by my mother. I edited out the extended sections where she raves about my cute little tushie.
Maybe you'll be called back for an interview; maybe not. Either way, it's no big deal. There are many openings available.

There is no need to include a photograph in your application. A crude sketch will suffice. Be sure to draw your moles — all of them. Moles are the world's most under- rated turn-on.
Completed applications are due one week from today.
Applying for lovers would change the world of intimate relations as we know it. Tacky "How to Get Some" pamphlets would begin teaching the same skills as elite business schools.
Even the dating jargon would change. Marriages would become mergers, breakups will be layoffs, sex would be a business, lunch and getting downsized would carry kinky implications. You're only young once, so how about joining me in a deliciously strategic alliance?

Magazine salesmen hostile to decliners
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
A man came to her door. He told her she looked great. He said he wanted to take her out and asked her if she would have dinner with him. Then he asked her if she'd like to buy a magazine from him.
A solicitor used this tactic in attempting to convince Hilary Heffley, Atchison senior, to buy a magazine subscription. Unfortunately for him, she neither went out with him, nor did she buy a subscription.
He took the rejection in stride, but some solicitors don't. This week three solicitors selling magazine subscriptions were arrested because of reports that they had become hostile toward people who refused to buy subscriptions.
One of these solicitors was a Milwaukee man arrested Tuesday on suspicion of grabbing a KU student's arm after she refused to buy a magazine subscription.
Two other men, also from out of town, were arrested Wednesday in
the 1800 block of Kentucky Street after two area residents complained to police that the men had yelled profanities at the them.
The two men also were cited for not having a license to solicit.

sgt. George Wheeler of Lawrence Police Department that while it was unusual to have solicitors become belligerent toward potential customers, it was common to find them soliciting without a license.
"Generally these companies drop in a couple times a year and blanket the town," he said. "Inviably they're from out of town."
Lawrence, because it's a college town, is a prime target, he said.
While some solicitors are legitimate, some aren't.
Carol Holstead, an associate professor of journalism who teaches classes about magazines, said she generally avoided buying sub-

He said that the department wanted to respect residents' privacy.
Solicitation is not allowed in the KU residence halls, said Fred McElhenie, associate director of Student Housing.
The two men arrested on Kentucky Street said that they worked for Oklahoma City-based Subscription Plus Inc.
SPI is in good standing with the Better Business Bureau. Thomas Cole, director of SPI, said that his business did not supervise solicitors in the field. He said that sales companies hired the solicitors and that his company processed the subscriptions they sold.
He said that, according to his files, there had not been any previous complaints about the two men.

Kansan staff writer
Kevin Yoder, committee member and student body president, said that he did not want to remove Jaybowl because students used the facility for classes or recreation.
The University of Kansas is one step closer to having a renovated Kansas Union.
WTW Architects presented four $4 million renovation schemes yesterday to about 20 members of the Kansas Union Renovation Planning Committee. The renovations would be financed through student fees.
Paul Knell, architect, said that one of the primary objectives was to attract more people to the Union. He said other objectives included maximizing student organization space, exploring options for renovating Jaybow and maintaining space for the art gallery.
Jim Long, former Kansas Union director, said that construction was scheduled to begin next fall and that the renovations would be completed in Fall 2000.
He said keeping the main entrance on the fourth floor and having large windows, an information desk and space for e-mail access were also goals.
Korb Maxwell, committee member and Leawood senior, said he wanted student organization space to remain on the fourth floor.
The committee decided to explore two out of three options concerning the first floor presented by the architects.
The architects will present more finalized plans to campus architects and engineers March 11 and 12. The Memorial Corporation Board will review the plans in April.
"The life of this Union is on the fourth floor," he said. "Students don't walk on Mississippi Street — they walk on Jayhawk Boulevard. We want it to be easy for students to come in and see us."
The second scheme would be symmetric westward expansion.
Knell said that student organizations would have 24-hour direct access to their portion of the Union under the first scheme.
Each of the four schemes presented allowed for 12,000 to 15,000 square feet of assignable new space. The schemes offered a plan for a covered walkway from the future parking garage, with a crossroad entrance for students walking from Oread Avenue to Mississippi Street.
The committee decided to proceed with three of the four schemes proposed.
"It's something different on campus that we don't have anywhere else," said Yoder, Hutchinson senior. "But it needs remodeling to make it more inviting because it's dark down there."
The first scheme would expand the Union on the north side. Student organization space on the fourth floor would be expanded 50 percent and would include a tiered seminar space for conferences and meetings.
Kansas Union Bookstore. The Burge Union Technology Center also would move to the Kansas Union.
Student organization space on the fourth floor would be expanded 4,000 square feet across the back of the building.
Because the administration wants to implement campus alternatives to late night drinking, Knell said that the first floor, including Jaybowl, should be converted into a commons area.
Knell said that the space would be smaller and more compact but that there would be space for future renovations.
The third scheme would develop asymmetrically on the west side. Knell said that there would be less space for student organizations and the art gallery. Some floor space also would be removed for the addition of a new staircase.

Students organize regional meeting of Black engineers
The University of Kansas will be the host of the National Society of Black Engineers Region 5 conference this weekend to plan for future meetings.
By Jennifer Roush Kansan staff writer
Students and educators from Kansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana, Missouri, Texas, North Dakota and South Dakota will attend the conference, which begins today and concludes Sunday. This is the last time for the region members to meet before the national convention in March.
Patton said that the event had been organized and executed by students.
More than 10,000 engineering students nationwide are members of NSBE, said Strauder Patton, president of the KU chapter. The society is the largest student-managed organization in the country.
There are 30 schools in Region 5, said Leah Robinson, St. Louis senior and NSBE member. She said that she expected delegates from at least half of the 30 schools to attend the conference.
Robinson said that she was looking forward to the conference. She planned to attend a workshop called "Non-traditional Pathways in Engineering."
Robinson also said that she wanted to learn more about what she could do with an engineering degree, aside from crunching numbers at a computer terminal.
Robinson said she was a member of NSBE because there was a lack of

"If I'm the only Black female in a group of white male engineers, being Black stands out more to me than being female," she said.
According to NSBE's Web site, the organization's mission is "to increase the number of culturally responsible Black engineers who excel academically, succeed professionally and positively impact the community."
Adrian Franks, KU NSBE treasurer, also is the entertainment coordinator for conference attendees. Franks, a St. Louis senior, is anticipating this weekend's event with mixed emotions.
focus on minorities in the engineering field.
Winners of the academic technical bowl — a question-and-answer contest — will have their registration fees waived for the national convention.
Patton said that the conference would allow students from chapters in the region to take care of any unfinished internal business before the national convention. The conference also will offer students the opportunity to network with businesses and each other.
"I'm looking forward to the conference," he said. "I'm also looking forward to it being over. There's been a lot of stress."
Patton said that highlights of the conference would include the emerging technology fair, the precollege initiative conference for high school students and the academic technical bowl.

House budget committee gives money to KU projects
Continued from page 1A
University of Kansas Chancellor Robert Hemenway expressed frustration with the committee's actions.
"If legislators can find a reason to object to faculty salaries, they will," Hemenway said. "What I understood them to say is that 10 percent below average is good enough for Kansas."
The budget committee recommended using the $1.5 million cut to pay for smaller enhancement projects and programs at individual campuses, including electrical rewiring in KU buildings.
Some legislators indicated that even if the Appropriations Committee passed the budget committee's proposal, the issue of increased faculty salaries was not dead.
Rep. Jeff Peterson, R-Manhattan, motioned to remove the funding from the enhancement projects and add it back to the faculty salary pool. The motion failed, 7-15.
"We think these enhancements are very important," said Rep. George Dean, D-Wichita, a budget committee member. "If we can get them in now, we can add the faculty salaries on the House floor, in the Senate or in a conference committee."
Later in the day at the Board of Regents' monthly meeting, members
"We need to step up to the plate," said Regent Kenneth Havner. "We need to tell the legislators, 'We don't want these enhancements, we want faculty salaries.'"
restated that faculty salaries were their top priority and discussed what they should do next.
Hemenway said he thought the leaders of Regents universities had made that point repeatedly.
"The way to make it clear that this is our top priority is to reiterate it and keep pounding away," he said.
The Appropriations Committee is expected to vote on the budget committee's proposal today.

■ Authorized the University of Kansas to negotiate with the government to acquire 200 acres of federally owned property in Johnson County for environmental research;

Professor seeks lost African-American work
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
In the South, she tracked down titles of African-American books that only a few people could remember.
In the Northeast, she recovered African-American novels that lay forgotten on library shelves.
Now at the University of Kansas, Maryemma Graham, professor of English, has brought to the Midwest her quest to record each and every work written by an African American.
"I got involved in this project because I've been teaching African-American literature for a long time and reading it for a long time," Graham said.
She discovered as a young professor at the University of Mississippi that while contemporary African-American texts and reprints of classic ones were available, many novels from the early 20th century and before were nowhere to be found, Graham said.
It was a gap that she thought could be filled. Graham said.
These towns, mostly ghost towns now, Graham said, may hold many written recordings of their past inhabitants.
"The only way to prove my theory was to find the books," she said.
And she has found plenty — more than 1,200 titles in the last decade by looking in libraries, digging through private collections and listening to the memories of the elderly.
But African-American writers who spent part of their lives in Kansas may have left some of their work around — writers such as Gwendolyn Brooks, Jacob Lawrence, Gordon Parks, Langston
Graham said that Kansas held opportunities for discovery of new work by African-American writers.
"What's interesting about Kansas is all the black towns that existed," Graham said.
Hughes and Frank Marshall Davis.
Much of Graham's research, how,
ever, does not involve physically
exploring musty basements and
dusty attics.
"Technology is a wonderful, thing." Graham said.
Doretha Williams, Topea graduate student, assists Graham with the search for the novels by using online catalogs to scan American libraries holds for titles of little-known African-American books.
After they locate the book, they ask that the book he sent to them.
Once they see that the book exists, Graham's other assistant, Tony Harris, Lawrence graduate student, enters its bibliographical information into a computer database.
Graham, Harris and Williams are working on a side project for Microsoft's Encarta Africana, a two-disc encyclopedia of African culture, Graham said.
They will send Microsoft the complete texts of about 70 rare African-American novels written between 1853 and 1919 to be placed within Encarta Africana, Harris said. They have about half of those texts in hand now.
However, Encarta Africana is a very small part of Graham's overall project, Harris said.
"It's the first major project for us to work on within the larger history of Black writing," Harris said.
"A lot of the books probably aren't important individually," she said.
The edition of Encarta Africana that they are working on will be available by the end of the year, Graham said.
Collectively, however, they give a sense of African-American life that we were not aware of, Graham said.
"It not only tells us that Black people lived in the 19th century, but that they were writing, thinking, dreaming and hoping," she said. "It really makes our sense of who people were come alive."

Sports clinic soothes injuries
By T.J. Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Nick Sever grimaced while lying on his back as he followed physical therapist Sandra Bowman's instructions to extend his leg to a vertical position.
Sever, Englewood, Colo., senior, was seeking treatment at the Sports Medicine Clinic in Watkins Memorial Health Center for shin splints yesterday. Bowman's diagnosis: Take it easy while running for 10-14 days, wear shoes with better shock absorption and continue a routine of stretches designed to loosen up his legs.
Sever, a rugby player, said that the Sports Medicine Clinic had helped him with his injury and that the clinic was a useful service for students.
The clinic is designed to meet the needs of all students, not just athletes, to help them with their injuries. Injuries from falls, strains and even dancing brought students into the clinic.
"We wanted to give the students a place to go for some expertise in dealing with injuries," said Lawrence Magee, Watkins physician and clinic coordinator.
Magee's goal of helping injured students led to the full-time Sports Medicine Clinic, which is open every weekday morning to KU students.
Magee said that students could visit the clinic and have their injuries evaluated free of charge. Students only pay if in-depth physical therapy or other services, like X-rays, are required.
From working as a team physician for KU athletics to caring for the track and field and judo teams at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, Magee said that he had been interested in sports medicine throughout his medical career.
"You have to enjoy working with athletes and being around athletes to do this, and I do." Magee said.
medicine in a college environment was an opportunity to work with an active age group, which typically had more sports-related injuries than the general population.
He said that working in sports
"In this age group, basketball, running and football are the most common sports we see injuries with." Magee said. "We have a very good physical therapy department, and having physical therapists as part of the clinic adds a lot to it both in helping me and in the benefits the students get."
Magee said the clinic had treated about 13,000 students since it opened in 1985.
The clinic is open weekday mornings from 8:30 to 11:30 during the regular school year and is on the second floor of the Health Center.
Students with questions about the clinic or who would like to schedule an appointment can call 864-9507.

JEOPARDY!
Students can now play College JEOPARDY! Online and compete for a chance to have their school audition for the televised version of the game show. Photo illustration by Christina Neff

Answer: This weed with a "crustacean" name arrived from the old world
Question: What is crabgrass?
If you correctly answered this question, you might have what it takes to compete in College JEOPARDY!Online.
College JEOPARDY! Online allows colleges across America the chance to see which school's students can rack up the most points in an online JEOPARDY! match. The competition began Feb. 8 and will last until May 24.
JEOPARDY! will visit the winning school to hold a campuswide audition for the next televised College JEOPARDY!
After a winning university is selected, the auditions for College JEOPARDY! should be held this fall. Piela said that the televised competition would be next spring.
Caren Piela, publicist for Sony Online Entertainment, said that although there had been an online contest before, this was the first semester that students of
Piela said that the online competition was a good way for universities to organize and beat their rivals.
"Show them who's boss," she said.
Students can play College JEOPARDY! Online at the Web site
www.station.sony.com. Contestants can play as many times as they want and their point totals are cumulative. Each contestant's point totals are added to the school's total. Individual contestants also can win prizes such as CD players and T-shirts.
The chance to win prizes or appear on JEOPARDY! has attracted students to the Web site to trv their hand at the game.
The Web site for the competition has a list of the Top 50 scoring universities, as well as individual scores for the top-scoring students.
"We have over 100,000 students playing Online JEOPARDY! right now," Piela said.
There weren't any KU students
listed as the top scorers yesterday, and the University was not in the Top 50. The top three schools in the poll yesterday were Prairie View A&M University in Prairie View, Texas; Miami University-Oxford in Oxford, Ohio; and the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta.
The online version of JEOPARDY is similar to the televised version, but without competing players. If a question is not answered or is answered incorrectly, the next question will be chosen randomly.
To "regain control of the board" as Alex Trebek would say, the player must answer that question correctly.
Sam Osterhout, Hutchinson senior, said that he was a fan of the televised version of the game show. He said he had not yet played the online version but was looking forward to trying it.
Cody Simms, Rose Hill senior, also had not heard of the online competition but said that it sounded like fun.
"I'm more than excited," Osterbout said.

Fun Lovin' Criminals uniquely satisfy the genuine rap and rock appetite in 100% Colombian.
What sets these guys apart from most rap acts is that they play live instruments and don't rely on electronics to carry their songs. Their diverse playing ability from blues to metal is very commendable.
ments of one another. Still they are wonderfully produced with the great balance of wellplayed instruments including some trumpets, vibes and flutes.
Not everything is rap, though. Korean Bodega can be heard on 105.9, the Lazer, with its poppy chant accented by that overused, radio-friendly beat that Alanis Morissette uses in most of her tunes.
Fun Lovin' Criminals don't care what people think about their extreme diversity in styles, and that shines in a lot of their dark, sarcastic lyrics, which contrast the easy listening mood to most of the songs.
The rap tracks are best suited for a laid back party since they resort to smooth, blues-like rap reminiscent of the pre-gangsta movement. However, songs such as Love Unlimited, Back on the Block and We Are All Very Worried About You all sound like slight rearrange-
The grooves on Up on the Hill soothe the soul with sensually wailing, sampled saxophones . The song's musicianship relaxes the day's tension and makes me feel like I am in their living room having a conversation with the band.

After various lighter tunes, Southside blazes through the speakers with a hardcore angst that destroys the relaxation, but is delightfully engrossing just the same.

Office Space
Rating : B
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
The trailers for Office Space do the movie a disservice by suggesting that audiences are in store for a live-action version of *Dilbert*. Not to worry, Office Space is about as similar to *Dilbert* as Vanilla Ice is to Tupac.
Three computer programmers at the fictional company Initech toil thanklessly in a bureaucratic nightmare. When the company hires a consultant to eliminate waste, fear of termination runs rampant. While two of the software
Needless to say, this results in Samir and Michael being fired, and Peter being promoted. The trio decides this would be an opportune time to embezzle money from Initech, and the group installs a computer virus to do so.
programmers, Samir (Ajay Naidu) and the unfortunately named Michael Bolton (David Herman) decide this is the time to brown-nose. Peter (Ron Livingston) comes to the conclusion that he doesn't care anymore.
The plot seems incidental to the movie's humor. Witty satire and biting irony perfectly express the men's feelings about their humdrum jobs, but the story becomes weak when the comedic aspects take over.
This results in a lot of dead end subplots and unfinished business. Writer Mike Judge (of the infamous Beavis and Butthead) gives insight into the frustration of under-appreciated white-collar employees, but can't sustain any sort of flowing
narrative.
Plot problems aside, this is sure to be one of the funniest movies of the year. The scene in which Samir, Michael and Peter take out their frustrations on the office printer Boyz in the Hood style is an absolute
masterpiece, and it alone makes the movie worth the admission. Jennifer Aniston does well in her role as Peter's girlfriend, and Stephen Root's performance as a much-abused file clerk always provides a laugh.
The soundtrack to Office Space, which consists mostly of old-school gangster rap hits, perfectly complements the movie. The best movies about young adults tend to use a lot of irony and satire. Judge recognizes this and adds a tongue-in-cheek soundtrack that doesn't disappoint.
While Judge is no Charles Dickens when it comes to story development, his insight into the mind of office peons and his often outlandish humor make the movie well worth seeing.

When watching Kansas games on TV, you rarely see the enthusiastic KU students standing the entire game and screaming at the top of their lungs. You don't see them all decked out in their KU clothes, with their

guests painted, and holding the big signs they spent hours making.
What the nation sees while watching Kansas games on TV are the boring, rich, season-ticket holders who rarely sport KU gear and only will stand and cheer if something spectacular happens or the refs blow a call.
These season ticket holders are also the people who are seen doing the infamous "Rock Chalk Walk" at the end of the games that has given KU fans a bad reputation as fair-weather fans. I don't think I ever have seen a student leaving a game early.
Why is this all you see during games? Because these are the people who have the good seats, the seats running the length of the court that are in view during the entire game. The students are stuck in the corners and high in the rafters. Their only visible seats are those behind the baskets.
The Athletics Department brags that it gives the students about 40 percent of the seating in Allen Fieldhouse, but it fails to mention that these seats are some of the worst seats in the house. Let me give you my vision of the way it should be if the world were perfect and everything were fair and just.
First, any student who wanted a seat would have one. I know that in most years all the students who want basketball tickets have been able to purchase them, but I have been here in a year in which the student demand exceeded the number of student tickets and a lottery had to be held. This is our school. We are the reason that this place exists and we are the ones who pay tuition. If we want tickets to watch our team play, and we have the money to pay for them, we should get them.
Second, we would be given one side of the fieldhouse just like we get one side of the football stadium. I would suggest giving students the team bench side and then moving the TV cameras back to the east side. Can you imagine how much louder the fieldhouse would be in this situation? It would be like a wall of sound. And think what a great advantage it would be to have students right behind the visitors bench. "Sit down Norm" or "Manny sucks" would be an in-your-face cheer. Most importantly, the students would be in front of the cameras the whole game and the nation would see how great our student fans really are.
Want to see this plan in action? Watch a Duke game at Cameron Indoor Stadium where the students are given one entire side. "The Cameron Crazies" aren't the best basketball fans in the nation, they are just the most visible basketball fans in the nation.
I know that this column is wasted ink and paper because nothing will change at this University. After all, money talks and unless students can start shelling out several thousand dollars a year to the Williams Fund, don't expect any changes in the seating arrangements.
At a University that only cares about big bucks, corporate sponsorship, and more big bucks — the students are pushed aside. After all, students aren't very important, are they? Surely, the University could function without us, as long as the alumni, Target, Nike and United Missouri Bank continue to pour in the money.

'Hawks need to win at Oklahoma

Let's just say that Norman, Okla., is probably not the Kansas men's basketball team's favorite place to play.
Although Kansas is 13-6 against the Sooners in the 1990s, the Jayhawks are only 1.2 in Norman since 1995. That lone victory came last season in a 70-88 squeaker.
"is going to be a big, big challenge for us," Kansas guard Ryan Robertson said. "I've played there twice, and both times they've been absolute battles."
The Jayhawks, 17-8 overall and 9-4 in the Big 12, are expecting another grudge match when they take on the Sooners at 2:30 p.m. on Saturday at the Lloyd Nobles Center.
"it's going to be a hostile game," Kansas center Eric Chenowith said. "We only get one shot at them a year, and they played us really tough last year. It's going to be a fun game because there is going to be a lot of emotions and excitement."
That excitement can be attributed to the hotly contested Big 12 race, where five teams still have a legitimate shot at claiming the crown.
After starting the conference with a 4-3 record, Oklahoma, (19-7, 10-3) has won six straight games and moved into sole possession of second place in the conference.
With three games remaining in the regular season, Kansas finds itself in a three-way tie for third place in the Big 12, with Nebraska and Missouri, and in desperate need of win.
"There's always a sense of urgency, but there might be a little more now." Chenwish said. "We want to start a run going into the Big 12 tournament and the NCAAs. We hope to come out with a victory."
To claim that all-important win, Kansas will have to contain the Sooners and dominant the inside game. Junior forward Eduardo Najera ranks in the top 10 in the Big 12 in both scoring and rebounding with averages of 15.2 points and 7.9 rebounds per game. Sophomore post player Ryan Humphrey is also a force in the paint for the Sooners, as he contributes 11.6 points and 7.4 rebounds per game.
"Just from playing them last year I know that Najera is a physical and intense player," Chenowith said. "I've played with Ryan Humphrey since high school, and I know he's been developing his game a lot since he's gotten there. He's a tough player."
Robertson agreed with Chenowith's assessment of the importance of Oklahoma's inside presence.
“The thing with OU is that they are very talented.” Robertson said. “I’ve seen them play a couple times and I think their greatest strength is their offensive rebounding. Sometimes I feel like their offense is to just to throw it up there and let those big guys go up and get it and score. We’re really going to have to work hard the next three couple of days at hitting the boards and trying to keep their big guys off them.”

Football schedule set for next season; seven to be at home
By Michael T. Rigg
Kansas sportswriter
Kansas finalized its football schedule for next season Wednesday, which features seven home games.
That has happened only seven other times in KU history.
The Jayhawks will kick off their season and unveil the second phase of the Memorial Stadium renovation Sept. 11 with a home game against Cal State Northridge, a Division 1-AA team.
"We are especially excited about having seven quality opponents coming to Memorial Stadium," Coach Terry Allen said.
After their season opener against the Matadors, the Jayhawks travel to Boulder, where Colorado will try to avenue last season's 33-17 loss here.
After Colorado, the team will play two at home. The first is scheduled for Sept. 25 against San Diego State on Band/Parents Night; the second is on Oct. 2 against Southern Methodist for Homecoming.
Phase one of the renovation was completed last fall. The second phase includes press box renovations and the addition of a video board.
Kansas faces what appears to be the toughest part of its schedule when it travels to Kansas State and Texas A&M for its next two meetings.
"We have an ambitious schedule that will present a wide variety of challenges for our team in 1999," Allen said.
"We were put in the last minute position of having to find a home game when North Texas requested a delay in their agreement to return a game in Lawrence," Allen said. "We were happy to find a quality opponent in Cal State Northridge."
Then comes back to Memorial Stadium to play Missouri and Nebraska.
Of the 11 teams the Jayhawks face next season, six played in bowl games following the 1998 season.
Kansas was planning on opening its season against North Texas, but those plans fell through.
North Texas fans can take comfort in knowing that an agreement is being finalized to put the Eagles on the 2003 schedule.
The Jayhawks wrap up their season Nov. 20 against Iowa State.

Coach Marian Washington will have her final chance of the season to win her 500th career game at home as her 21-ranked Jayhawks battle the Oklahoma Sooners at 7:05 p.m. at Allen Fieldhouse.
"All we're thinking about is trying to make the (NCAA) tournament," she said.
While the Kansas coaching staff said that every team was concentrating on preparing itself for a late-season run, it was disappointed that Oklahoma hadn't taken notice of the occasion.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday: (Feb. 19)
This year the focus is on money and education. You'll learn more about money this year, or use the money you have to finance college. You're very lucky with money this year. It comes from both nearby and far away, and it comes from luck as well as doing your job. Heed a Scarpio's advice in March. Show how thrifty you can be during the summer. Travel looks good in October and November; also, overseas investments should pay off. Your career takes a strange twist in December.
Aries (March 21-April 19): Today is an 8.
You've got a tail wind today. It's a combination of a push of support and a bit of pressure because you're a little behind on something you promised. So although you're moving quickly, there may be some anxiety going on simultaneously. That's fine. You tend to use anxiety as a motivator, and it's a good one.
Taurus (April 20-May 20): Today is a 5.
Tuesdays (April 20-24) today to 9:30
Looks like people are coming up with all kinds of won
derful ideas today. The only trouble is they want you
to do way too much of the work. That's your assess-
ment of the situation anyway, most likely. You're
going to have to speak up. Let them know when
they've piled on enough.
Gemini (May 21-June 21): Today is a 6.
Don't dash off and do something today just because of a friend's suggestion. Better check and make sure that's your client or your boss wants. Unless your friend is paying your salary, his or her opinion is, well ... an opinion. Sorry, but that's all it amounts to. You can do projects like that on your own time.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Cancer (June 22-July 22): Today is a 5.
Today, it may look like you have a problem, but
again, you're really quite lucky. Just mind your P's
and Q's and do what you're told. To gain even more
points, do it before anyone has to mention it. You've
g nice plans ahead, but don't let them distract you
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): Today is a 7.
Fun, games and maybe even a few surprises are in store for you today. Don't wait for tomorrow to start your weekend. Make it happen now. A person you know with a very different background from yours is your perfect companion.
Virao (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 5.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sep. 22): Today is a 5.
People will be anxious today, and they're not going to hold back about it. Expect to get heat today if things are not done perfectly, on time and exactly the way they are supposed to be done.
Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Today is a 9
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Today is a 6.
Looks like a strong partner has the whole agenda laid out. All you have to do is jump in the car and take off. There's nothing else to be done. You're in a raging mood again today, raring to go.
Things are coming up roses today. Everything you touch will, figuratively, turn to gold. Take advantage of the situation and have fun. Be careful of those who would hope to cash in on your good fortune; you'll know who they are.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Today is an 8.
You're coming up with all kinds of great ideas today.
You might surprise yourself with your brilliance and creativity. Partially, you're using what you've learned recently, and partially you're making things up, but you've got a very good knack for guessing accurately
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Today is a 5.
Looks like there's a controversy going on at your house, but it's kind of a good one. Things are getting stirred up, and it's for the better. It almost looks like you have too much of something, but you'll think of a way to put it to use.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Today is a 7.
This is going to be a fun evening, a good night to go out and rock and roll. Your friends have probably already made several interesting suggestions. The idea is to get out tonight, take a few risks and get rowdy.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Today is a 5.
Today, you can be creative and loving and all the things you do so well without even having the slightest little bit of self-consciousness or self-doubt. A brilliant idea you have could help you make more money.

SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES

Dooling, a freshman averaging 15.1 points in the Tigers' last eight games, was fouled hard on a breakaway by the Sooners' Eduardo Najera in the first half.
Missouri guard's injury ignites disagreement
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Missouri guard Keyon Dooling missed practice Wednesday after suffering a concussion in Monday night's loss to Oklahoma. school officials said.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
FRESNO
Asked after Monday's game whether Najera's foul was excessive,
Dooling: Suffered concussion in game against Oklahoma.
Missouri coach Norm Stewart said: "Yes, completely." Stewart said he plans to talk to the Big 1.2 Conference office about possible action against Najera. After reviewing the tape of the foul, Stewart said: "You can watch and see a
guy double up his fist, extend the arm and swing. The guy is not going for the ball. The ball is in the arms, and he hit him in the right side of the head, then drove him into the standards underneath the basket.
"Something should be done," Stew art said. "You're talking about the possibility of a crippling injury that could end somebody's career." Oklahoma coach Kevin Sampson defended Naira.
"What he did, there was nothing wrong with," Sampson said. "He went after the ball. That's all the officials saw. Anyone who saw it otherwise was looking through home-crowd eyes."
Doiling has experienced headaches and dizziness the last two days, officials said, but he likely will
play in Missouri's game Saturday at Oklahoma State.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — For pitcher Jeff Austin, the deal means stability. For the Kansas City Royals, it means credibility.
"I decided enough was enough," Austin told The Kansas City Star in a telephone interview from his home in Kingwood, Texas. "Holdouts are fine, and I had a nice little break, but I decided enough was enough, and it was time to get going. I didn't want to start my professional career by coming in late to camp."
Holdout ends with deal between Royals, pictcher
Austin, Kansas City's first-round pick in the June 1998 free agent draft, ended his holdout Wednesday and became the last first-round pick to sign.
LAURENCE J. HOWARD
Austin was Kansas City's top pick and the fourth pick overall in the draft — the highest draft choice in Royals' history.
He had held out because of money.
The Royals reportedly were offering
$2.5 million while Austin was asking
KC R
Royala
$3.5 million. In the end, the two sides met at $2.7 million.
"It wasn't a bitter dispute at all," Austin said.
"I'm happy I got it done before the season, and it got done with the Royals. I was happy the day
Kansas City drafted me, and I'm happy today because I'm finally with them."
Austin was named National Player of the Year by Baseball America magazine after his junior season at Stanford. He is known for his breaking ball and his control, having struck out 136 batters while walking just 32 in his last Stanford season.
The Royals said that signing Austin lends credibility to their stated intention of rebuilding the organization with its own players.
school last fall and again for the semester beginning in March. The Royals would have lost their rights to him had he returned to classes.
Kansas City made no effort to sign most of its free agents this year — losing third baseman Dean Palmer, second baseman Jose Offerman and pitcher Tim Belchier — while cutting the Royals' payroll to under $25 million. The only major free agent retained by the Royals was closer Jeff Montgomery.

ACAPULCO, Mexico — Men armed with Kalashnikov rifles spired away the father of Mexican soccer great Jorge Campos.
Mexican soccer star's father seized, missing
Alvaro Campos was seized Wednesday from a soccer field named after his son, flamboyant goalkeeper Jorge Campos, according to two relatives who spoke on condition of anonymity out of fear for Campos' life.
"There were six or eight people with their faces uncovered ... but nobody recognized them," one of the relatives said. "They took out their rifles ... took him aboard a pickup truck."
The truck was found nearby an hour later. Mexican news media reported.
Police in Acapulco said they couldn't comment on the case until the family filed a complaint. But Wednesday night, dozens of pickup trucks sped through Acapulco's southern outskirts, filled with state police officers carrying automatic rifles.
Jorge Campos, goalkeeper for Mexico's national team through two World Cups and a star in both U.S. and Mexican soccer leagues, was in Hong Kong participating in a tournament with the national team.
Jorge Campos hugged teammates
goodbye before boarding a plane home.
"All the players are shocked by this," teammate Francisco Palencia said.
Campsis was Mexico's main goalkeeper during its World Cup performances in France last year and in Los Angeles in 1994. He is known for his flashy uniforms, which he used to design himself, and for his talents as both goalkeeper and forward.
Camps' U.S. Major League Soccer contract is now with the Chicago Fire, but the Fire let him move for the season to the Pumas of Mexico City's National Autonomous University, a top division team. The Fire, which acquired him from the Los Angeles Galaxy a year ago, expects him back in the spring.

responsibility to celebrate the positive things that are happening with individuals and programs," Washington said. "We're real competitive, but I'm certainly pleased for the people in our conference and how well our conference is doing. Maybe there isn't an appreciation for history, and that's okay."
The two coaching staffs are linked by Kansas assistant coach Pam DeCosta. She will be facing the Sooners for the first time since she returned to Kansas after a two-year coaching stint with Oklahoma. She served as recruiting coordinator for the Sooners during the past two seasons. DeCosta said it would be a little strange facing her old school.
"It was the same thing when I went to Oklahoma and had to face Kansas," she said. "It's just a weird feeling. I think it'll be harder, though, because I recruited a lot of those players and I never really got a chance to see them play."
One of the players that DeCosta helped recruit was freshman LaNeisea Caufield. The 5-foot-9 guard has been a major factor in the Sooners' dramatic February turnaround.
Before this month the last thing on the Sooners' minds was post-season play. They were a meager 8-10 overall and were stumbling to a 2-6 conference mark.
KJ
Women's BASKETBALL
Since February began, Oklahoma is undefeated in five conference games and has been building momentum toward the Big 12 tournament. Caufield, who has been named conference rookie of the week four times, is averaging 21 points and 5.8 rebounds during the current winning streak.
"She has become an impact player much faster than we thought she would," said Coale.
Oklahoma's leading scorer is junior Phylesha Whaley, who averages 19.5 points per game. Whaley and Caufield were named player of the week and rookie of the week, respectively, on February 15, marking the first time one school has won both awards in the same week since the Big 12 began.
"They are a much improved team playing with a lot of confidence," Washington said. "Everybody feels they need to finish up on a winning note. It's going to be very competitive."

Robertson's Perspective
Kansas men's team could make run
Underclassmen will benefit from season's experience, he says
- Ryan Robertson sat down with the Kansan's Mike Harrity yesterday to reflect on his team's inconsistent season, March Madness and playing his final game at Allen Fieldhouse against Oklahoma State at 8:30 Monday night. The following is from the interview:
This whole season, talk about roller coaster rides. Winning games we're not supposed to, losing games we're not supposed to. It's been so up-and-down, and we've been so inconsistent. Yet, at the same time, I still feel like we're a very good team. You put us in the tournament in March, and there's no telling what could happen. Everybody always says this team reminds me a lot of the '88 team when they lost 11 games. And I always say, well, of course they had Danny Manning, too. Or people say Arizona won the championship and they had lost 10 times.
I think all of those things are good facts to know because I think that's very similar to what this team can accomplish. I don't see it out of the possibility for us to make a run like that all the way to the top.
Right now, we're just trying to get better, because we haven't played well in certain games. I would say a lot of the inconsistency has to do with inexperience. If you look at our team, really me and T.J. are the ones that Coach Williams really depended on, like, had to have perform well in order for us to be a good team. Nick (Bradford) has played great. Eric (Chenowith) has played great, at times. Jeff (Boschee) has played great. Except, this is their first experience. And they've played great, they've been sensational. But I think they will feel so much more comfortable, say, next year, after being through all these rigors, and after being through close games, and after being through a conference where they had to play well in order for us to win. That will pay big dividends.
I've heard the talk about not being a leader. My only thinking is that, like last year, when we were 35 and whatever, and we had Raef (LaFrentz) and Paul (Pierce) on the team, I remember reading all these articles about how I didn't score that much but I was such a leader on the team. Even Paul and Raef would say 'Ryan is a leader on the team'.
Now, this year, we struggle a little bit and everybody says 'He's not leading.' I'm the same player as I was last year—it's just the results are different. We do our best, but the results are just a little bit different. So to me, they're just being a little
bit hypercritical.
I'm the same player that I was last year,
and I'm doing all the exact same things,

against you (Harrity), or to any other
media who write about it, but nobody knows more about the team or about me or about college basketball than me and my teammates and Coach Williams. So for a publication to think they know what's going on in that locker room, or think they know what's going on with me, is ludicrous.
Monday night is "Senior Night" and I don't really have a lot of thoughts as far as OSU is concerned. I have thought a little bit about it being senior night. My only real thought about that is I can't believe how fast it's gone. I mean, I can remember so vividly what "Late Night" was like my freshman year. I can remember that
My parents will be there. But that's not anything unusual, because my dad comes over for every single game, and that's seven hours both ways.
"Right now, we're just trying to get better, because we haven't played well in certain games. I would say a lot of the inconsistency has to do with inexperience."
like it was yesterday. And I can remember my first game, playing at Kemper Arena in Kansas City against Utah. You talk about how quickly things go, I mean, it's just gone by like a blur.
I'm going to miss it. I'm sure it will be emotional. I'm sure that the guys will be into it and they'll want us to go out with a win. And I think T.J. and I have had great careers. And we're proud of that.
I think the big challenge for us that night will simply be putting that aside and taking care of what we need to take care of. I don't have anything prepared yet for what I'm going to say, but I'll probably do that this weekend. I won't cry, but it will be emotional. It will be very hard to concentrate, and it will be very hard to focus on what I need to do.

Kansas track teams set for Big 12 Championship
The Kansas track teams have spent the last four months in preparation for this weekend.
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
TRACK AND FIELD
Competing in the Big 12 Indoor Championships today and tomorrow will provide an opportunity for the athletes to measure their ability against the rest of the best.
PIZZA SHUTTLE DELIVERS
Coming off one of their strongest performances of the season last week at the Kansas Invitational, both squads want to capitalize on individual performances.
"The other meets were important, but it all comes down to this one," senior Kevin McGinn said.
Sophomore All-American Scott Russell has been the men's team's top athlete this season, winning the 35-pound weight throw competition in four meets. He also has won the shot put twice and has qualified for the NCAA Championships in both events.
Currently ranked fifth in the nation in the weight throw, Russell is the favorite going into the Indoor Championships.
Jabari Wamble will compete against arguably the toughest and deepest field in the meet. Junior sprinter Dave Tomlin has performed well lately, placing second in the 55-meter dash and fourth in the 200-meter dash last week.
"I if throw anywhere near what
"I'm capable, I'll win the thing,"
Senior pole-vaulter Colby Miller, who won last week and provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships, is ranked 10th in the nation.
The Jayhawks also will need strong performances from middle distance runners McGinn and sophomore Charlie Gruber, who both have three wins this season. Gruber is equally proficient in the 800 meter and the 1,000 meter runs, while McGinn will focus on winning the mile run.
Sophomore 400-meter runner
Sophomore hurdler Eric Patterson also has run well lately, rebounding from a disappointing sixth place finish two weeks ago. He finished in a season-best 7.53 seconds to win the 55-meter hurdles last week.
Senior triple-jumper Lester Smith, who has won twice this season and has provisionally qualified for the NCAA Championships, is ranked 11th.
The men also will rely on four more athletes ranked in the top 20 in their respective events to score valuable team points.
"LATE NIGHT' SPECIAL DELIVERED AFTER 9PM
Russell said.
Pole-vaulters Andrea Branson, sophomore All-American, and Shannon Agee, freshman, will lead the way on the women's side, providing the Jayhawks with two top-20 athletes.
Branson, with a season-best 12 feet 3/4 inches ranks 11th in the nation. Agee is close behind, ranked 19th with a vault of 11 feet 11/4 inches.
Coach Gary Schwartz said he was pleased with his team's performance last week and was optimistic about this weekend.

'Hawks drop one in Phoenix

The Kansas baseball team played its first of a four game weekend series in Phoenix, Ariz. yesterday.

gone weekend in the valley. So far, the Valley of the Sun isn't looking favorable for the team, which lost 10-1 in its series opener against he Nevada Wolf Pack.
The loss dropped the team's record to 2-2.
Junior left-hander Pete Smart replaced Call in the fourth inning and lasted only one and one-third innings.
While the Jayhawks only scored one run, they were not without their opportunities. The team stranded 14 runners, a number far too high for Coach Bobby Randall's liking.

In the game, starting pitcher Colin Call pitched three and two-thirds innings and gave up six runs. Only two of the runs were earned, but Call was not in control of the game.
Lawrence freshman, Jeff Davis, replaced Smart in the sixth, and was greeted rudely by the Wolf Pack. His first pitch was launched out of the park for a Nevada home run, giving the Wolf Pack a 3-1 lead.

Junior Rusty Philbrick, who won his lone start this season, will take the mound for the Jayhaws today.
"Now we're going to have to pick our heads up, regroup and go play a good ball game tomorrow," Randall said.
The game will mark the team's first ever meeting with the Tigers and precedes tomorrow's rematch with Nevada.
The Jayhawks will face Northwestern at 10:30 a.m. Sunday.
Despite the disappointing loss, Randall said that the team must regroup and come back ready to play at noon today, when they face Pacific University.

The women's tennis team lost 5-4 to Mississippi last night in the first round of the Women's National Indoor Team Tennis Championships in Madison, Wis.
The Jayhawks were the first team to score against Mississippi this season. The Rebels shutout five other teams before facing the Jayhawks, including four ranked teams.

Although the Jayhawks lost, they won some key matches, Kansas played well in doubles, winning two of the three matches.

First baseman Chad King extended his hitting streak to four games, tying his career-high, but struck out twice.
Freshman outfieldier Matt Van Alsburg continued to play well. Van Alsburg was 2 for 3 with one walk. Sophomore outfielder Doug Dreher was also 2 for 3 in the game.
Dreher and Van Alsburg provided the only offense for the team.
"We had a lot of opportunities, but never cashed in on them." Randall said.

Yankees land Clemens in trade with Blue Jays
HOUSTON — The Roger Clemens blinding didn't end the way the Houston Astros wanted it to.
The New York Yankees acquired the five-time Cy Young Award winner from
Toronto today
for pitcher
David Wells,
infielder Homer
Bush and
reliever
Graeme Lloyd.
Houston general manager Gerry Hunsicker had talked with Blue Jays general manager Gord Ash as late as Wednesday.
B
Clemens: Has won the Cy Young Award five times.
"I had thought all along the deadline would be Thursday, Friday or this weekend," Astros owner Drayton
Mckane said. "We aggressively worked through Gord Ash. We thought we were getting awfully close Tuesday and Wednesday."
Ash had been trying to make a deal for Clemens since December. Hunsicker blasted Clemens' request for a $27.4 million, one-year extension, which essentially would have given him a $43.5 million, three-year contract.
While the salary issue appeared to be a major roadblock for the Astros, Clemens joined the Yankees without gaining an extension on his current deal, which has two years remaining at $16.1 million. He has the right to demand a trade following the World Series.
McLane said he was confident Clemens would have played for the Astros under the same terms if Houston and Toronto had worked out an agreement.
The Blue Jays reportedly wanted
Astros outfitter Richard Hidalgo and pitcher Scott Elarton, two promising player owners Drayton McLane was unwilling to give up.
Clemens appeared to take himself off the market Dec. 22 when he rescinded the Dec. 2 trade demand, which triggered talks with the Astros, Yankees, Cleveland Indians and Texas Rangers.
After Hunsicker criticized Clemens, the pitcher said he wouldn't play for the Astros as long as team president Tal Smith and Hunsicker remained. But Clemens later softened his stance.
Clemens, 36, won his second straight Cy Young Award last season after going 20-6 with a 2.65 ERA.
Rangers general manager Doug Melvin had said Texas still was interested, too, but declined to elaborate. The Rangers attempted to acquire Clemens throughout December, but they would not part with outfielder Rusty Greer.
NFL backup may get starting spot
The Associated Press
Doug Pederson, who never has started an NFL game and has been a third-string quarterback, parlayed that undistinguished resume into a $4.5 million contract and a possible starting job.
Pederson, 31, with only 32 regular-season passes in a career that began in 1992 — as a practice squad member in Miami — signed the three-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles on Wednesday. New Eagles coach Andy Reid believes Pederson could be his starter.
"He's a very smart individual who has size, and that helps," said Reid, Green Bay's quarterbacks coach before being hired by the Eagles. "He also has the physical ability to run and throw the ball. He's been able to study the west coast offense for the last three years, so he knows the system."
He also seems to have beaten the system. A perennial backup, Pederson spent the last four seasons as Brett Favre's backup, which meant rarely getting onto the field, never in tight games.
Still, the Eagles think he will be a vast improvement on Koy Detmer, Rodney Peete and Bobby Hoying, who led the team to a league-low offensive ranking.
"I've been around enough to know that it's a game about winning, and I want to win. That reaction is fine." Pederson said of those who question his credentials. "I guess that's part of the history of Doug Pederson. I've been a backup to Dan Marino. I've been a backup to Brett Favre. This is my time."
It's not Steve Atwater's time. Or Cornelius Bennett's.
Both veterans were released Wednesday.
Atwater, 32, who played safety in three Super Bowls and eight Pro Bowls, was not stunned by being cut — he sat out most passing downs last season.
"It's not like this is a big shock to me," said Atwater, one of the best tacklers at safety in the game. "When they were taking me out of games, that said something right there. They had needs to address.
"I have nothing but great things to say about my time in Denver. It was 10 great seasons."
Denver needed salary cap room, so Atwater was released one day after Denver signed cornerback Dale Carter to a six-year, $38 million contract with an $8 million bonus.
Bennett, a linebacker for the Buffalo Bills in all four of their Super Bowl defeats in the early 1990s, helped Atlanta get to the NFL title game in January. The Falcons lost to the Broncos 34-19.
The five-time Pro Bowler led the Falcons in tackles, but he is 33 and would earn $3.7 million for the final year of his contract.
The Falcons also want to make room for last year's top draft pick, Keith Brooking, who played regularly in passing situations at the end of the season.

"I didn't show anything," Rancik said. "Marcus was great. I didn't do anything. I was really disappointed with myself. I didn't prove to all those people I can play at this level."
Iowa State coach Larry Eustachy, in his first season with the Cyclones, says Rancik deserves some slack for last season. Rancik was slowed early by a stress fracture in his right leg, and Eustachy says from what he can tell, the 6-foot-9 forward never really got going.
This season, Rancik is feeling much better about his play. He has continued to play despite a recent bout with bronchitis and is the team's second-leading

That's fine with Rancik. He figures he weighs around 220 now and would like to be between 235, and 240 next season.
I think I have improved a lot since last year," Rancik said. "But I still have a long, long, long ways to go, a lot of things to work on. I know the coaches are going to help me get my game better. I'm willing to listen, and I'm willing to work hard to do that." Eustachy would like to see Ran

Celtics win after three overtimes
Former KU player Paul Pierce scores 26
The Associated Press
VANCOUVER, British Columbia — A long night that lasted three overtime periods and almost four hours was decided by a simple play — a pick-and-roll for Andrew DeClercq.
"I was just looking at the front of the rim and it went in. We work on the play every day in practice, we do it in a game. It should go in. It's the timing of it that makes it so much more special," said DeClercq, who finished with seven points and was

Lacrosse clubs gaining popularity on campus
Coastal sport draws following among students
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Neither clam digging nor deep-sea fishing is popular in Kansas.
Z
Lacrosse, also a coastal activitv. isn't either.
Luckily for KU students, the Kansas Lacrosse Club offers a way for those who grew up playing lacrosse, to continue.
The University of Kansas has both a men's and a women's lacrosse club. The two clubs play by slightly different rules.
The women play two 30-minute halves, while the men play four 12-minute quarters.
Penalties and rules such as offsides, slashing and cross-checking are the same for both clubs, but generally men's games allow more hitting and roughness than women's games do. Women lacrosse players have less protection from injury.
"Since we don't wear pads and helmets, they basically put an invisible bubble around us where the sticks cannot go into or else it's a penalty," said Laura Lavid, Lorton, Va., soophomore.
physical games around," Denver senior James Lester said. "It has been dubbed the fastest game on two feet."
Hitting is allowed in men's games, but unnecessary roughness is not allowed. It is punishable by sending a player to the penalty box.
Lester said that lacrosse was a hybrid of three games — basketball, hockey and soccer.
The women's team suffered its first home loss of the spring season last Saturday against Regis University of Denver. The score was 20-4.
"Lacrosse is one of the most
The team, which begins league play in April, said that the home loss was not too devastating because it came against a high-caliber team.
"It gives us good experience, playing teams like Regis, because they are really good." Lavid said. "They practice, like, six times a week, two hours a day. So, there's definitely a different range of teams, and hopefully we're on our way up."
This year, the team is joining a new league, which includes teams from New England states to the Midwest.
T he women's division includes Illinois, Missouri, Truman State and Knox College. Every year the top two teams from this division go to the national competition in Toledo.
Lara Ratican, St. Louis senior, started the women's
club team at Kansas three years ago. She said that she could see the game growing.
"There's a big potential for this sport to take off," Ratican said. "It would be awesome if, some day, it was a varsity sport, because
there's a lot of talented players out there."
there. Ratican is one of those players.She had two goals Saturday against Regis, moving her into first place on the women's team career scoring list
The men have yet to begin their season.
Powered by the determination of first-year president Lester and vice-president Ben Watson, Chicago junior, the men's club is growing. The team has 20 members this year.
"I think we have enough young kids that the sport will continue to grow," Lester said. "It's been nice being able to play, but it's been real frustrating, too."
One of the reasons the team has been unorganized is that it does not belong to a national league. The team plays in the more local Great Plains League, and generally does well. The men's team won it two years ago, and lost in the finals last year.
Big 12 Conference
Next year,however,the team will join the Central College Lacrosse Association,which is mostly made up of Big 10 Conference schools. Missouri and Kansas State making it three from the Big 12 Conference.
Playing in this league will allow the team to compete in a national tournament and gain
more exposure.
"James' and my goal is to get something more structured in place," Watson said. "There's interest here, and people show up, but you don't always have enough to practice."
The men will open their season at Missouri on March 6. Lester and Watson said they both thought the men's team was talented enough to go to a regional this year and would continue to get better in the future.
"If we get organized enough, we've got a good chance to go to regionals," Watson said. "There are guys that have good talent, but they haven't played together. If we get a cohesive unit together we could be good."
Watson said that kids all over the country were starting to play lacrosse at an earlier age and that the game was gaining in popularity.
"I like the competition and the fact that it's a very team oriented sport," Ratican said. "It's just a different, cool sport that I love to play."

University program strikes at violence
Kansan staff writer
The University of Kansas has implemented a new program designed to help employees feel secure from threats of violence at work.
The Campus Workplace Violence Program was not created because of violent incidents on campus but because of nationwide trends, said Ola Faucher, human resources director for the University.
The University always has adhered to the state's guidelines for handling violence in the workplace, Faucher said. The state policy says that anyone who makes threats or engages in violence on state-owned property, or who threatens a state employee conducting official business, could be dismissed, arrested and prosecuted.
"The nation has simply had a lot more incidents of violence, and higher education is not immune," Faucher said. "This is an effort to assure that people in the University community feel this is a safe place to work."
In addition to reaffirming the state policy, the new University program creates a Threat Assessment Team to evaluate potentially dangerous situations.
It also calls for a series of informational seminars and contains a weapons policy that applies to all students, regardless of whether they are employees.
Faucher said the program also emphasized the on-campus 911 system, which
reaches the KU Public Safety Office.
"Many people didn't seem to be aware that immediate help was available," she said.
The Threat Assessment Team's purpose is to review situations that don't require immediate help from security or police officers. For example, Faucher said, KU employees might feel uneasy if someone was following them around, making personal references, using threatening language or acting angry.
"You might not be sure what to do." Faucher said. "Depending on the severity of the situation, we would decide how to deal with it or call in someone else."
James Kitchen, dean of students, is on the team. He said that with so much violence in

workplaces nationwide, the University wanted to get a complete policy in place.
"we wanted to be proactive rather than reactive," he said.
He said he would pay careful attention to situations that involved students.
"If something does happen to a student worker, obviously I would have more of a
concern and more of a connection." he said.
concern and more of a connection," he said. If faculty, staff or student employees feel threatened, they should call the Human Resources Office from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. or the Public Safety Office any other time.
The University also has a weapons policy that prohibits students, employees and visitors from having weapons on campus.
It defines weapons as firearms, explosives, switchblades and knives with blades longer than 4 inches, tear gas and smoke bombs — although Mace and pepper spray are allowed.
The program was approved by the provost and chancellor Feb. 1. It became effective upon approval of the administration.

KU scientist identifies new cat species
By Jennifer Roush
R. C. BARNARD
Kansan staff writer
A paleontologist at the University of Kansas has helped identify a new species of saber-tootch animal.
John Babiarz, an amateur paleontologist from Mesa, Ariz., who owns a large collection of sabertooth specimens, obtained the skeleton, which was originally found in Florida, by trading other specimens from his collection.
-Larry Martin, curator in charge of vertebrate paleontology at the Natural History Museum, discovered the new species by examining a skeleton during the past two years.
Babiariz hopes to start a natural history museum in Tempe, Ariz., and put his collection into it. To do that, he needed to have the collection described and cataloged.

Babiarz was familiar with Martin's expertise on saber-tooth cats he called the KU professor to help identify the Florida skeleton, which is now at Arizona State University.
Babiarz said he did not know exactly what the skeleton was but that he knew that it did not fit with current scientific knowledge.
"I knew right off the bat it was suspect," he said. "But how often do
Martin was surprised to find that Babiarz's skeleton did not belong to either of the two known species of saber-tooths. The skeleton's teeth and legs didn't match what was known about saber-tooth cats when Martin first examined the skeleton two years ago.
you find something like that?"
Martin said saber-tooth cats had been divided into two species: smilodon, which had short legs and long teeth, and homotherium, which had long legs and short teeth. While homotherium is fairly rare, smilodon is the cat most people imagine as a "saber-tooth tiger."
The 1 million-year-old skeleton, which is one of only two known to exist, was found in a cave in northcentral Florida. The other skeleton is at the University of Florida.
Judging from the size of the skeletons, the two may have been a mother and nearly-grown cub, Martin said.
"When I first saw this, I didn't think it was for real." Martin said.
He estimated that the cat weighed between 400 and 500 pounds, approximately the size of a lion, and would have looked more like a

small bear than a cat.
The Florida cat had a short, stocky build like smilodon and broad, vicious teeth like homotherium.
"We don't know exactly what it ate, but it probably ate whatever it wanted to," said Martin.
Martin said the cat most likely ambushed its prey, as smilodon did, rather than running it down.
These are the only two specimens to have been found, and the only thing left to do is to decide what to call it, he said.

Campaign time prompts office spats in Senate
By Nadia Mustafa Kanson staff writer
Familiar complaints about campaign politics in the Student Senate office marked the beginning of another elections season last week
Julie Numrich, Senate executive chair, said that despite an office policy that prohibited candidates from discussing campaign issues in the office, some senators had complained of candidates using office resources for campaign purposes.
"You start to hear grumblings about this time of year, but we try to keep Senate out of it and conduct campaigns separately." Nurmrich said. "There's a lot of rumor mill. It divides Senate apart even more than it is now."
She said senators began talking about candidates and wearing coalition buttons in the office and at Senate meetings during campaign time each spring.
She said members of the executive staff needed to fulfill their terms by working on issues promised in last year's elections and that campaigns should be secondary.
The policy states that
there should be no campaign materials in the office and that candidates cannot use Senate resources such as phones, computers, fax machines, copy machines and email for campaign purposes.
Nicole Skalla, Senate transportation coordinator, said campaigning in the office was unfair to other candidates who did not have access to Senate resources. She said the office was supposed to be a place for senators to address students' concerns and that campaign politics interfered with that.
She also said that campaigning in the office created tension and competition between members of different coalitions.
STUDENT
THE UNIVERSITY OF KANSAS
SENATE
Skalla said Korb Maxwell, Student Legislative Awareness Board legislative director, had used the office fax machine for campaign purposes. She said students, senators and potential candidates discussed campaign issues with Maxwell in the office.
Maxwell said that he received a fax about campaign posters and
"There is a certain level of people whispering," Skalla said. "Sometimes people have meetings behind closed doors about campaign issues. It happens quite often."
She said Senate did not want to deter student involvement, but that senators could discuss coalition politics in other parts of the Kansas Union.
buttons on the office fax machine, but that he did not give out the Senate fax number as his personal line. He said the secretary, who did not know that the fax was campaign-related, gave out the number.
Maxwell said that he did not conduct meetings about campaign issues in the office and that he did not want either coalition to campaign in the office. He said he would pay Senate for the resources he used.
"It was not a good precedent to set," he said. "It was just a human mistake by the secretary. It's a time-honored policy that has been broken every single year, and I'd like to make an agreement with Seth (Hoffman) that we keep buttons, posters and closed-door stuff out of the office."
Tom Moore, SLAB campus director, said it was inevitable that candidates would campaign in the office. He said that it had already
occurred within both coalitions, but that Numrich had taken corrective action by posting a warning on the Senate listserv.
"Politics is a part of what we do," Moore said. "This year's crop isn't any different from last year's. But I
don't think it has much stock in a candidate's style of personal campaigning. More than anything, it's a nuisance."
Seth Hoffman, Nunemaker senator, said some members of Delta Force had been wearing coalition buttons in the office. But, he said, he had discussed the issue with coalition members and it would not occur in the future.
Hoffman said wearing coalition buttons was different from using office resources financed by student fees.
"We haven't been receiving faxes or phone calls." he said.
Kevin Yoder, student body president, said senators had been compliant with his request to keep coalition buttons out of the office. He said he was not aware that candidates were campaigning in the office.
"It's important that the Senate office remain a neutral area in which no coalition or candidate is discussing or preparing for the April elections." Yoder said. "I don't want the Senate office to turn into a campaign arena for the spring."
According to Senate rules and regulations, the student body president or Senate can remove anyone that violates office policy from his or her position.

Plane crashes by Kansas City's Downtown Airport
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A single-engine plane went down near the Missouri River as it lost power on approach to the Downtown Airport last night, authorities said.
There were no serious injuries, said Joseph McBride, a spokesman for the Kansas City Aviation Department.
The Beechcraft Sundowner had three people on board when it went down at about 7 p.m., McBride said.
"They're all walking around," he said. "I don't know the extent of their injuries."
McBride said the pilot gave this account of the crash:
He was trying to glide into the airport after experiencing engine failure, but fell short, McBride said.
According to the pilot, the plane hit some power lines, cartwheeled over a 10-foot wall wall and went down the river embankment.
The aircraft came to rest with its wheels in the water across the river from the airport. McBride said.

Youth gun activity figures spur Clinton to take action
WASHINGTON — The Clinton administration wants to bring more cities under a program that traces guns used by juvenile criminals in light of a report that showed at least half the guns were bought illegally from licensed dealers.
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms released an analysis Sunday of its Youth Crime Gun Interdiction Initiative. The program traced 76,260 guns used in crimes by 18- to 24-year-olds in 27 cities during the past three years.
President Clinton is asking Congress in his new budget proposal for money to pay for expanding the initiative to 10 more cities across the country.
Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms found 51 percent of the traced guns were purchased from licensed dealers by people acting as "straw" intermediaries for the real owners, and only 35 percent were stolen. The remainder came from private sellers not required to obtain identification or subject their customers to background checks.
With impeachment over Clinton focuses on nation
WASHINGTON — A week after President Clinton's impeachment trial ended, the nation's governors are urging the president and Congress to put the enmity behind them and get on with the nation's business.

Republican leader DeLay under investigation spotlight
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON—Rep. Tom DeLay, the House Republican leader who led the drive to impeach President Clinton for statements he made under oath, now finds himself at the center of his own controversy over truthfulness.
DeLay got a lot of media attention as he kept up a steady stream of invective against Clinton. But now the spotlight has turned and is focused on the Texan. DeLay is being asked about discrepancies between statements he made in a legal proceeding and in financial disclosure forms he is required to file as a member of Congress.
"Frankly, it's my opinion he lied to me under oath," said Gerald DeNisco, the Houston lawyer who questioned DeLay for a 1994 deposition in a civil lawsuit filed against the congressman by a business partner.
The former pest exterminator, whose profile rose after the former speaker, Rep. Newt Gingrich, resigned blames Democrats for critical media coverage.
"I am the most investigated man in America. They're trying to bring me down," DeLay, the No. 3 GOP House leader, said this month.
Yet the man who repeatedly exhorted Clinton to provide facts is not rushing to talk.
Generally loquacious, the majority whip is brushing off inquiries regarding the lawsuit filed against him by a business partner who claimed DeLay and a third partner were trying to oust him from a pest control firm.
"We have answers to all of that," DeLay said. "It ain't worth talking about."
Aides have been equally tightlipped. Questions about DeLay's business dealings were first raised by an alternative Houston weekly in 1995 and were resurrected recently by The New Republic, a liberal-oriented magazine. "These stories are being forwarded by political enemies of Tom DeLay, and we choose not to fight them out in the press," said spokesman Michael Scanlon.
The roots of DeLay's current
troubles reach back to that 1994 deposition, taken 10 months before he got the GOP leadership post.
DeLay, who owned a third of Albo Pest Control, testified that he had not been an officer of the company for two or three years. But on congressional financial disclosure forms filed for several years preceding the deposition — and one filed three months afterward — he listed himself as chairman of Albo's board of directors. He dropped the title on his 1995 report.
DeNisco said he thought DeLay was attempting to limit financial liability by denying he was a corporate officer. DeLay later retreated somewhat from his claim, saying he couldn't remember when he resigned.
The spat with former Albo partner Robert Blankenship, ultimately settled with an undisclosed payment to Blankenship.
A court also imposed a $32,000 judgment against DeLay in 1984 after he stopped making payments to Robert Bartnett for the purchase of Bartnett's pest control company.

Murphy project breaks ground
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
A ceremonial groundbreaking for Murphy Hall's 82,000-square-foot expansion took place Saturday morning in the Crafton-Prever Theatre.
Preliminary site work has already begun on the $9.5 million addition and remodeling project, which will attach a new wing to the southeast corner of Murphy Hall.
The addition will contain three rehearsal halls, a music library, a computer technology center, classrooms, offices for instrumental ensemble directors, a recording studio, a sheet music library for instrumental music and an instrument storage and repair area.
existing building will be remodeled. The expansion is expected to be finished by the end of next year.
Stephen Anderson, chair of the department of music and dance, said he was absolutely thrilled that the project finally was starting.
In addition, several areas in the
"Every music student that we have will benefit in one way or another," he said.
Anderson, who has been at the University since the project's inception in 1979, said the learning process would be enhanced because of the expansion.
Anderson also said the expansion would improve the learning environment for dance students, faculty, and those majoring in music education and music therapy who must speed back and forth between classes from Murphy Hall to Bailey Hall.
Seth Rowoldt, Lincoln, Neb., freshman, said he was looking forward to not having to walk up five flights of steps to practice his music, because an elevator is being added in the expansion. He said he also was eager to have space to put a new marimba. A marimba is large instrument that resembles a xylophone.
Despite these advantages, Rowoldt said he did not think the project would be as beneficial as most expect.
"I'm not enjoying the process and I don't think it will really help us," Rowoldt said, describing the noise of jackhammers that disrupted his class recently.
The project is being financed by the Legislature's Crumbling Classrooms program.

Haskell powwow illustrates heritage of Native Americans
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
The star of The History Channel documentary *Tecumseh* & *The Dream of Confederacy* orchestrated the Haskell Indian Nations University Benefit Pow-wow at the Coffin Sports Complex on Friday.
Curtis Zunigha, an actor and former chief of the Delaware nation, was invited to be the master of ceremonies for the powwow, which benefits the two-day Commencement Pow-wow this spring at Haskell.
At least 500 Native Americans traveled from around the country to attend.
Women wearing jingle dresses danced the simple dance. Men in outfits with eagle feathers and streamers danced the traditional and fancy dances.
"It's the Indian version of Saturday Night Fever," Zunigha said as people scattered around the gymnasium kept pace to a traditional Kiowa song.
Zunigha said the poowow was an opportunity for people to get together and take part in their culture.
Merlin McClellan, Haskell Alumni Relations representative and member of the Sac and Fox nation, said the different types of dances — buckskin, cloth, simple, shawl, traditional, fancy, gourd and grass — developed from the traditions of different tribes.
The dancers are professionals who travel to compete for prizes at different powwows and invest a tremendous amount of work into their outfits. McClellan said.
Leo Holiday, a second year Haskell student and member of the Navajo nation, sold his jewelry out in the lobby.
Holiday said the dancing and singing were parts of the spiritual roots of his people.
"It's a social gathering," he said. "It means to me to get together with your fellow brothers and kinsmen and rejuvenate your spiritual life. It's being one with the creator."
Zunigha, a traditional dancer, said it was only a coincidence that his film was on the History Channel the
Tecumseh Thoughts for the Future
"So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of young people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none.
When you arise in the morning give thanks for food and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and nothing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes to your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song and die like a hero going home."
-Tecumseh, Shawnee Nation

same night of the powwow.
Zunigha gave a screening of his film to Haskell members Friday.
The movie documents the story of Tecumseh, a Shawnee Native American living in the early 19th century, who sought to unify tribes to fight for treaty rights and tribal sovereignty.
Tecumseh's efforts failed, and he died still fighting for Native-American interests on Oct. 5, 1813 in a battle against the United States in the War of 1812.
Zunigha now is directing, writing and acting in Frontier: Legends of the Old Northwest, a new documentary series for The History Channel.

"IS IT ME, OR DO THE POTHOLES GET BIGGER EVERY YEAR?"
The Chicago Tribune
Editorials
Heidegger's philosophical clout outshines Nazi party affiliation
The criticism surrounding the Heidegger Lecture Series, though well-intended, is misdirected. Professor Wallace Johnson's argument against the name of the series is valid, but it does not warrant changing the name.
Martin Heidegger, a 20th century existentialist philosopher, is studied in a class tied to the lecture series called Heidegger and the Greeks. Despite Heidegger's contributions to ontology, the study of being, and his ability to combine the ideas of philosophers such as Frederich Nietsche, he was a member of the Nazi party.
Although such an association is neither to be ignored nor excused,
Lecture series aptly named for 20th century thinker despite insensitivity claims.
his affiliation was not unique Hans Sluga, author of "Heidegger's Crisis," notes that by 1940, nearly half of Germany's noted philosophers were party members, some of whom, unlike Heidegger, were responsible for the formation of Nazi ideology.
Heidegger's affiliation with the Nazi party should neither be ignored nor sugar-coated. It would be unfair, however, to compare him to Adolf Hitler.
Johnson's fear is that by acknowledging positive aspects and contributions of the Nazi regime, people will forget the atrocities. Although society must be reminded of the horrors so history will not repeat itself, the consequences of villianizing individuals who were on the periphery also is damaging.
Although the Holocaust brought on by the Nazi party affected a cross-section of society, a good judge of whether the naming of the lecture series is in bad taste is how the Jewish community responds. Until this happens, the series should remain named as is—pertaining to the subject at hand.

Recent work earns pats on the back
A thank you goes to the students and staff at the University of Kansas who have reached to improve the University during the past few weeks. We send a pat on the back to the following:
Chancellor Robert Hemenway opened his home Feb. 2 to KU's Asian-American students. The reception offered the students an opportunity to meet KU administrators and to get to know one another. Receptions for members of First Nations Students Association, Black Student Union and the Hispanic American Leadership Organization are planned for later this semester. This is a step in the right direction for our chancellor who, during his first faculty convoitation speech in 1995, named diversity appreciation as an area for improvement at the University.
The women of Alpha Chi Omega
Diversity, greek excellence lobbying and coaching victory entitled to recognition.
Alpha Delta Pi, Chi Omega, Delta Gamma and Kappa Alpha Theta sororities and the men of Delta Chi fraternity were awarded Feb. 15 the Chapter Excellence Award at the University's annual Greek Recognition Night.
of chapter excellence recipients.
These greek chapters should be proud of their accomplishments in scholarship, financial management, greek relations, community relations, membership development, risk management and alumni relations. Bill Nelson, coordinator for Greek programs, said this was a record number
A third pat on the back to the members of the Student Legislative Awareness Board for their dedication to students advocacy. Their representation to the Kansas Legislature about issues such as faculty salary and financial aid increases is a excellent example of student leadership. They also should be commended for spearheading an effort to bring city commission candidates, students and Lawrence Bus Company officials together for discussions about a new public transportation system.
And, finally, a pat on the back and congratulations to Marian Washington for her 500th win. This is an accomplishment of which players, students and alumni can be proud.

Religious intolerances fostered by own beliefs
Perspective
People should have strong faith and strong opinions. We should all know our own minds and our own hearts. But sometimes in the midst of forming our belief systems, there
Racial, religious and cultural intolerance should not have a place in this world. In the realm of faith, intolerance takes the form of dogmas.

Pamela J.
Addressing Christian dogma comes easy for me because I have lived with it all my life, I grew up in rural Texas in the mid 1950s, long before the charismatic renewal of the '60s. Those were the days of the great tent revivals, and I attended them all
in the midst of forming our emerges a dogma called intolerance.
Mom and I didn't just go to church on Sundays — we went every night of the week. If our own church wasn't having service that night, we would get in the car and drive out to the country and find a church that was having a revival.
In those days, it seemed that the only churches having revivals were Pentecostal. The services often would last until the wee hours of the morning; we kids would go to sleep on the floor or the pew.
Pentecostalism became my world and my dogma. I haven't heard this term for a long time, but I was a "holy roller." It shaped my perception of the world and of people who were different.
Mom and I didn't just go to church on Sundays
During this time of discovery in worship, another foundation was laid. When my mother would go downstream to pay bills, she would leave me in the car. While waiting for her, I would see strange ladies walking down the street, dressed in long black-and-white outfits.
I had a great-aunt by marriage who was Catholic. One of my favorite events to attend was her parties. She always would invite priests to her parties. Since it was against my religion to smoke or drink, I found it fascinating to see my aunt's priest with a cigar in one hand and a brandy-sniffer in the other. My mother constantly had to remind me not to stare.
When I asked my mother who they were, she told me they were Catholic nuns. She said they didn't know Jesus and that they needed to be
delivered. She didn't meet all this, but that was the dogma in its final form. As far as I can remember, that was the basis of my greatest religious intolerance in the Christian faith.
throughout my young adult life, the Protestant faith presented me with material to affirm my beliefs about Catholics — mostly because I was looking for it.
I had a friend in high school who was Catholic. She had six brothers and sisters, and I spent as much time as possible at her house because being an only child was a lonely existence compared to the happy chaos of that family. I was relentless in my attempts to evangelize Kathy. I would mentally criticize everything I heard while I was in church with her.
That was many years ago. Five years ago, I was confirmed in the Charismatic Episcopal Church, which is Catholic in form, but not part of the Roman Catholic Church. It is liturgical and sacramental. However, it is also evangelical, tying together the three streams.
Two weeks after my confirmation, I was going through a box of old papers looking for my daughter's birth certificate when I came upon an old baptised paper. It was mine. I had been baptized Roman Catholic as a baby.
That was when I remembered the nuns in Texas and the priests at my aunt's parties. No wonder I felt like I had come home.
Do I regret being raised Protestant? Not at all. It is part of my journey. Dogma and prejudice are part of all our lives. But that doesn't mean we have to keep them. We can pray for deliverance.

City encourages residents to prepare for year 2000
Public forum series emphasizes potential compatibility problems.
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
In 1997, the city began investigating the year 2000 computer problem and the effect it might have on Lawrence residents.
Although utility companies and the city have been preparing, city officials are encouraging residents to anticipate some inconveniences.
Rod Bremby, assistant city manager, said that based on the city's assessment of the year 2000 computer problem, people should prepare as they would for a seven- to 10-day snowstorm.
"It is not anticipated that there will be any outages," Bremby said. "But in the event that there are, people should have flashlights and battery-powered radios. We just want to encourage people to take individual responsibility within their families and their neighborhoods to begin the process of evaluating items as Y2K compatible or not."
Part of the city's plan includes having a series of public forums, the second of which was last Monday.
Gayle Martin, communication coordinator for the city, said about 75 people went to the forum, which stressed taking personal responsibility to be prepared.
"We didn't find any hysteria," Martin said. "The information presented to them was practical, and we heard educated questions."
The problem is that many computer programs were designed to interpret years as a two-digit number, which will make the year 2000 show up as 1900.
"I don't think it's a serious problem, but it causes public concern like people all running to the bank and taking their money out," said Carl Arnold, Omaha, Neb., senior.
"It's people's interpretation of Y2K that makes it a problem."
The city and the utility companies are working together to troubleshoot. Utility companies already are running tests to ensure that residents will not experience power outages.
Bremby said that one concern was that utilities relied on electricity, but that the city had learned the lack of electrical power may not be a big threat.
"There was an anticipation that we would need to start conserving electricity," Bremby said. "But winter time is one of the lowest times of the year in terms of electrical load. We found that there is a 30-day storage of auxiliary power for the gas company."
In a pamphlet distributed by Util-
iCorp United, the parent company of Kansas Public Service and Kansas Power and Light, the company estimated that it would be year 2000 compliant by June 30.
Bremby said Lawrence Memorial Hospital also was able to run on auxiliary power for up to 48 hours.
There will be another public forum in April dealing with transportation issues, including cars with an embedded computer chip that causes the year 2000 computer glitch, gasoline companies' strategies and contingency plans for traffic lights.
"We're not taking an alarmist approach," Martin said. "There are some basic things you can do that don't cost a lot of money, but may take some time. People need to be talking about continger cy plans."
Martin said people could learn more about what the city is doing by looking at the Lawrence's year 2000 Web site at http://www.ci.lawrence.ks.us/y2k/index.html

Waiwers help KU staff pursue degrees
In 1996, Chancellor Robert Hemenway increased funding for a program that waived tuition for three credit hours of class each semester for classified and unclassified staff members.
By Chris Hopkins
Kansan staff writer
The increased funding raised the number of tuition waivers from 30 to 100. Today, although 24 of the walwers have gone unclaimed, the program is helping 76 KU employees earn their bachelor's or master's degree.
Lynn George, who runs the program out of the office of human resources, said the financing reflected Hemenway's goals.
The awards cover tuition, but not the cost of books or campus fees, said Marla Herron, assistant registrar. Recipients must have been fulltime KU staff members for one year, or a part-
"He believes in people continuing their education and he's very supportive of that." she said
Employees in the program must maintain a "B" average in undergraduate courses and a "C" average in graduate courses.
Herron is working toward a master's degree in higher education administration. She said that without the financial help, she wouldn't be getting her degree this Mav.
"As it is now, I take two classes a semester, and I can only afford to pay for one." she said.
She said that although she would have pursued her master's without the tuition assistance, it has allowed her to earn her degree more quickly.
Kimberly Beeler, assistant director of admissions, also will graduate this May with a master's degree in higher education administration.
"I really appreciate the tuition assistance," Beeeler said. "It does a couple of things; it helps financially, and it makes me feel like the University values my employment."
administration program for the KU School of Education, said that a number of current University administrators had graduated from her program.
Susan Twombly, chair of the higher education
She said the Chancellor's support was instrumental in furthering the training of KIU staff.
"I'm very committed to this program on behalf of my staff," Tuttle said.
Kathryn Tuttle, director of the Freshman-Sophomore Advising Center and a graduate of the higher education administration program, said she had written a supportive letter for her secretary's application.
Applications for a tuition waiver are available at 103 Carruth O'Leary Hall and are due by April 9 for the summer semester. They must include a college transcript, a statement by the applicant explaining how the training will help the staff member and the University and a letter of support from the staff member's supervisor.

Soaps too slippery to stay on store's shelves

By Chris Hutchison Special to the Kansan
But now, thanks to a new shoe that's flying off shelves in Lawrence and across the country, young skate enthusiasts can feed their need to be extreme just by lacing up a pair of Soaps.
Grinding, the practice of sliding across ledges and handrails, used to require either a skateboard or Rollerblades.
Soaps are the hottest thing in the store right now, said Chris Cox, owner of Shark's Surf Shop. 813 Massachusetts St.
Soaps are sneakers with a smooth, concave, plastic frame under the arch of each shoe that allows users to slide down surfaces such as handrails without much friction.
Soaps were launched about two years ago in scattered markets and have been sold in Lawrence for more than a year, Cox said. In the last few months, they have begun to catch on.
"I've sold sizes from 5 to 14 — so college kids are definitely some of the consumers," Cox said. "Even older adults have come in and asked about them, thinking that they are regular shoes."
Soaps are manufactured by a footwear company called Soap, which is based in Torrance, Calif. The company was founded by Chris Morris, a former Rollerblade sales representative.
Although the shoes are designed for casual use, there are problems that can come from excessive or radical public use.
The Lawrence Municipal Code states it is "unlawful for any person to ride, skate or use a coaster, roller skates, skateboard, Rollerblades, or other similar device on sidewalks and public parking lots and facilities" throughout much of the town — including the University campus.
Although rail-sliding shoes were not specifically covered, a Soaping offense would be "left up to the auspices of the officer and/or judge," said Gayle Reece, KU Public Safety Officer. "Most likely it would fall under the 'other device' label."
Reece said she could not personally remember any such violation having occurred on campus yet.
Some medical experts have voiced their concerns that, along with the fears of sprains, bruises and fractures that accompany skateboarding and inline skating, walking in Soaps regularly could lead to arch, ankle and knee injuries. And the spur-of-the-moment appeal of Soaps also decreases the likelihood of the user being properly equipped with kneepads and helmets.
in the extreme-sports mainstream, some view the new pursuit of Soaping with skepticism.
"Whereas we might have a 20 or 30 count of another product in stock, Soaps are consistently around four or five," he said. "I see no signs of let-up."
"I personally think Soaping is going to sort of die out," said Kenny Oyedeli, who publishes 817, a skating magazine. "There's a lot of criticism that 'freestyle walking' is kind of pointless — like if skaters are going to skate, they should just get skates."

Happy99 virus worms into University e-mail systems
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
An annoying, potentially undetectable computer worm has been discovered on computers at the University of Kansas.
The worm, called Happy99.exe, is delivered to users as an attachment to e-mail, said Craig Paul, systems analyst/programmer IV for Academic Computing Services.
For instance, if a user sends e-mail to a friend, a second copy of the message is sent, with the same subject line, but no message, and the Happy99 attachment. This will happen for every e-mail the user sends, whether it is a private message to one person or a post to an Internet news group.
Waxman said that although the worm does not destroy a computer, it does send a copy of itself out every time the user sends e-mail of any kind.
When the user opens the attachment, a small window opens that looks like a screen saver. While the program shows the user graphics that look like fireworks, it also is doing nasty things to the computer's files, said Mickey Waxman, statistics consultant/programmer for ACS.
Paul said that ACS had been made aware of the worm about two weeks ago. ACS has since been e-mailing warnings to computer users at KU. He said people were only beginning to hear about it now because it took time for the warning to be forwarded to other users.
"This will rapidly make you unpopular amongst your friends," Waxman said.
A worm is a virus-like program that uses other computers to create mayhem on networks. Unlike a virus, however, a worm does not need a host file on a specific computer to survive. Once a worm has been sent to an unsuspecting user, who then executes it, it will replicate itself.
Paul said the worm affected com
puters running Windows 95 or Windows 88. Macintosh computers running Mac OS or PCs running Windows NT are immune to the worm
Waxman also said that users who read their mail with browser-based readers, such as Eudora or Microsoft Outlook, were more vulnerable to the worm than those who read their mail with Pine.
He also said the worm might not be detectable to virus protection programs.
Waxman said the best way to protect your computer from the Happy99 worm was not to run any unfamiliar programs.
Paul said that the warning was good advice.
Reports of the worm first surfaced on campus last week, and the earliest reports anywhere else came from Europe in early January.
"The moral of the story is, as it was with NetBus, that if you don't know what a program does, don't execute it on your own system," Paul said.

Turkey reacts to Western critics
Skepticism aimed at trial of captured rebel leader
The Associated Press
ANKARA, Turkey — The Turkish prime minister's manner was mild, but his message was unmistakable: Back off.
Now that Turkey has rebel warlord Abdullah Ocalan behind bars, it is telling the West in no uncertain terms that it wants no advice from anyone on how to conduct his trial.
"We would consider such attempts an unacceptable affront to Turkish justice," Prime Minister Bulent Ecevit told a news conference on Sunday, six days after Turkish commandos captured Ocalan in Nairobi, Kenya. Ocalan is now on an isolated Turkish island prison where he remains in solitary confinement, under interrogation but not yet under formal arrest.
Even before a trial date has been set and the
nature of the proceedings agreed upon, the case is pitting Turkey against Western critics who cite its shaky human rights record and question whether the much-reviled Ocalan will be dealt with fairly
At the hour-long question and answer session held by the prime minister and his foreign minister, Ismail Cem, Turkey's prickly brand of nationalistic pride was on ample display.
Both men stopped just short of openly gloating over violent protests by expatriate Kurds that erupted across Europe within hours of Ocalan's arrest, including many staged on the soil of countries that have expressed sympathy for the Kurds' struggle for autonomy.
"There is a Turkish expression, 'Long live the snake that doesn't bite me.' The attitude of some governments in Europe could well be described with that expression," Ecevit said. "Now that they have been slightly bitten by the snake, they may better realize what we have been suffering for many years."
The 73-year-old prime minister said autonomy
for the Kurds is out of the question — and so is talking to Ocalan's Kurdistan Workers Party, or PKK, which has waged a 15-year military struggle for autonomy.
"A dialogue need not be formed with minority groups who want to partition Turkey," Ecivit said.
All this will be to the detriment of Turkey's international image, some analysts say.
Such combativeness on Turkey's part is likely to intensify as the trial unfolds, particularly if it is held in state security courts, which include military judges. With national elections less than two months away, the country's leaders will likely stick to the politically popular line that the trial is Turkey's business and no one else's.
Waving off outsiders' concerns about the proceedings will worsen relations with Europe, predicted Huseyin Bagci, an international relations scholar at Middle East Technical University in Ankara.
"This is not a normal trial; it's an international event," he said.
Control of two Mexican states up in air
The Associated Press
CHETUMAL, Mexico — Mexico's ruling party battled to keep two governorships in Sunday elections, with the toughest battle by far in Quintana Roo, where palm trees and turquoise waters serve as a backdrop for grinding poverty and a booming drug trade.
The Caribbean coast state, where wealthy tourist resorts like Cancun are located near dirt-poor Maya Indian communities, will test the Institutional Revolutionary Party's ability to convince voters it can narrow the income gap and overcome the image of corruption and authoritarianism that dogs current Gov. Mario Vil-
lanueva.
"We need a change. The worst thing that could happen is for things to go on the same way," said Manuel Peraza, a businessman in Cetuala, the state capital.
Voters formed short lines at polling places in Chetumal. Turnout also appeared to be light in Sunday's other race, the gubernatorial contest in Hidalgo state, on Mexico's central plains.
The ruling party, known as the PRI, was expected to win easily in Hidalgo. The Quintana Roe race between Gaston Alegre of the leftist Democratic Revolution Party and PRI candidate Joaquín Hendricks, a former army officer, was much closer.
Alegre has pledged more protec.
tion for workers and the state's fragile environment, while Hendricks wants to develop agribusiness to keep poor farmers from flocking to slums surrounding the resorts.
The PRI has governed Quintana Roo since it was admitted as a state in 1974. At the federal level, the party has held the presidency without interruption since 1929 and would like to maintain its strength for the 2000 presidential vote. Earlier this month, it won the governorship of Guerrero state but lost in Baia California Sur.
The party faces serious problems in Quintana Roo.
Two days before Sunday's vote, federal prosecutors announced 38 arrest warrants for former Quintana Roo state officials and businessmen linked to the cocaine-trafficking Juarez cartel.

Few Nigerians decide to vote in national legislative elections
LAGOS, Nigeria — Confusion, boredom and voter apathy were blamed for low turnout in Nigeria's legislative elections after early indications Saturday showed as few as 10 to 20 percent of voters cast ballots in many places.
The election of 109 senators and 360 representatives for the National Assembly came one week ahead of the first presidential elections in six years and an expected return to civilian rule in May.
The Associated Press
Initial results from northern and eastern Nigeria on Sunday put the People's Democratic Party of retired Gen. Oulseug Obasanjo ahead with about one-third of the votes, officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission told Nigerian radio.
Officials predicted the final results could produce a National Assembly about equally divided between the PDP, the Alliance for Democracy and the All Peoples
Obasanjo, who in 1979 became the only military ruler to ever hand over power to a civilian government, faces coalition candidate Olu Falae, a former finance minister who will represent both the Alliance and the All Peoples Party.
The first official results indicated the PDP had won 52 House and Senate seats, the Alliance 47 and the All Peoples Party 27. There were no immediate reports of serious violence or widespread fraud anywhere in the country.
Party, made up largely of politicians once loyal to former dictator Gen. Sani Abacha. Abacha's sudden death last June led to the current transition to democracy.
International observers and local newspapers said turnout Saturday was significantly lower than in earlier state and local elections. They blamed last-minute candidate selections and haphazard campaigning.
"Most of the voters did not know

whom to vote for, hence the low turnout," said INEC spokesman Ayodele Folami.
It was not known how many of Nigeria's estimated 50 million registered voters cast ballots. But spot checks at polling stations by journalists confirmed that turnout was as low as 10 to 20 percent in many places, newspapers said. Officials are expecting a much higher turnout for next week's vote.
Italian phone giant spurns bid
Telecom Italia claims $58 billion takeover lacks needed facts
The Associated Press
ROME — Communications giant Telecom Italia plans to challenge Olivetti's bold $58 billion takeover bid, which, if pulled off, would be one of Europe's biggest deals ever.
After a flurry of hastily called board meetings this weekend, Telecom Italia SpA issued a terse statement claiming there were holes in Olivetti's bid.
If Olivetti's filing with Italy's stock market regulatory body, made public Saturday, fails to provide all the information required by law, then Telecom Italia would be free to try
---
Telecom Italia, a former state monopoly, is the world's sixth-largest phone company, but has endured three management shakeups in the past 18 months.
While holding just 3.4 percent of common stock, the ministry has veto powers over major decisions through 2000. Specifically, the state can block an investor's acquisition of more than three percent.
to counter the bid, perhaps by taking steps to make a takeover too costly.
"The government isn't an inert spectator. It's vigilant and attentive on this affair," communications ministry undersecretary Vincenzo Vita said Sunday. "There are risks of 'denationalization' for a great
company like Telecom Italia, there are speculative risks."
Possibly complicating maneuvers is the Italian treasury ministry's so-called "golden share" in Telecom Italia, which was privatized in 1997.
Some union leaders have raised concern that such a costly operation would mean lots of job cuts.
But Olivetti's chief executive, Roberto Colaninno claimed the takeover would be an "extraordinary occasion for the entire country" and described the bid as "an industrial operation, not financial speculation."
He ruled out a hidden ally behind the bid, specifically the U.S. communications company Bell Atlantic, or Italian financier Carlo De Benedetti, a former Olivetti executive.
Olivetti's bid relies heavily on debt financing from three U.S. banks — Chase Manhattan, Lehman Brothers and Donaldson, Lufkin and Jenrette — as well as Italy's Mediobanca.

Film critic Gene Siskel dies
Reviewer had surgery for growth on brain
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff writer
Film critic Gene Siskel, known for the thumbs-up and thumbs-down reviews he and Roger Ebert shared on their popular TV show, died Saturday. He was 53.
Siskel had surgery last May to remove a growth from his brain, but returned to the syndicated television show Siskel & Ebert soon afterward.
He announced earlier this month that he was taking time off from the show to recuperate from surgery.
Siskel died at Evanston Hospital, near Chicago, surrounded by his family.
"Gene was a lifelong friend, and our professional competition only strengthened
that bond," Ehert said in a television interview. "I can't even imagine what it will be like without Siskel."
John Tibbetts, KU assistant professor of
film, met and interviewed Siskel and Ebert several times during his tenure in television broadcast and said the pair had a large impact on film criticism.
Tibbetts said that although Ebert was perhaps a better-qualified film critic, Siskel was responsible for much of the show's fame.
"It was Siskel's idea
PETER BURNS
"It was Siskel's idea to get the program into the mainstream," he said. "It was Siskel who organized their team concept."
Their show's continuing success was largely attributed to the chemistry between the tall, balding Siskel and the heavyset Ebert. They appeared to practice a one-upmanship that was in the tradition of their rivalry newspapers — Siskel was a critic for the Chicago Tribune and Ebert for the Chicago Sun-Times.
Tibbetts said Siskel and Ebert's much-talked about rivalry was not just an attempt to create controversy.
"He and Ebert did not get along," he said. "That's not press hype. The atmosphere was always pretty chilly. I think that counted for the popularity of the show."
Tibbetts said Siskel took a different approach to film criticism than Ebert that appealed to a lot of people.
"Siskel had more of that common man, 'let's talk to Joe six-pack' attitude," he said.

Fleming & John's second effort falls short
By Chris Fickett
Universal Records had a good concept in mind when it signed Fleming & John.
Here is a husband and wife duo that lives in a brick, bi-level house in Nashville, Tenn., which also doubles as their recording studio.
Wife Fleming McWilliams cooks dinner for husband John Mark Painter as he finishes guitar tracks for their second release, *The Way We Are*.
Kansan campus editor
But Universal didn't just sign a cute little husband and wife band. It also signed a group that is trying to break through the traditional genres of popular music today.
Fleming & John may try to incorporate influences from the past three decades to create a original sound, but it falls into the same overused traps that the majority of the bands use on popular radio stations today.
On Comfortable and the Way We Are,
Fleming & John creates new rhythms and
creative lyrics that flow with the music. It
incorporates a string arrangement success-
fully, unlike cheesy contemporaries like
Green Day.
McWilliams' impressive range of vocals can be effective on tracks such as *The Way*

The Way We Are keeps listeners tapping
Sadder Day starts off with an '80s beat-box sound that sounds straight out of Thriller, but the chorus melds into a common sound found on Pure Disco.
Unfortunately, a common theme on the album is that a great song such as The Way We Are is followed by Radiate, a track that makes me think that Fleming & John hired Neil Diamond's backup band for a cameo.
Ugly Girl features an unoriginal bass line, and McWilliams gives another rousing vocal performance with lyrics such as,
"Does she smoke cigars and stay up late, oh she's great," and my personal favorite,
"Ia-la-la-la. la...la." At least McWilliams didn't screech or whine on this song.
The flip side of the album is saved with I Fall For You, which has an Eastern European ethnic groove with JMP on the accordion. I Fall For You also features background vocals by Ben Folds, who co-wrote Ugly Girl.
Overall, Fleming & John's attempt to combine obscure instruments to create breakthrough sounds is admirable, but the attempt falls short. The couple, however, can take comfort in that The Way We Are is only its second album.

Jawbreaker fails to satisfy chokes on the big screen
By Brendan Walsh Kanson movie critic
Kansan movie critic
Jawbreaker is a poor attempt to merge the humor of Heathers with the kitsch appeal of Scream. It's neither funny nor campy and is perhaps the worst movie of the year.
The four most popular girls at Reagan High become a threesome after they accidentally kill one of their friends. Liz (former Miss Teen USA Charlotte Roldan), when they try to gag her with a jawbreaker. The evil Courtney (Rose McGowan) and the sheep-like Marcie (Julie Benz) decide to try and cover up the accident, much to the chagrin of Julie (Rebecca Gayheart), their somewhat moral friend. Class dork Fern (Judy Evans Greene) discovers the scheme, and in exchange for her silence the girls transform her into one of their own. Courtyne gains a new member for her clique, Julie gets kicked out, and mayhem ensues.
Jawbreaker is completely without humor. Darren Stein, the 26-year-old writer and director of the movie, is just too macabre to be entertaining, and the key to a black comedy is — well — entertainment. Stein also attempts creative flashbacks, which come off as forced and artificially artsy. This movie fails in almost everything it

McGowan dates Brian Warner (a.k.a. Marilyn Manson) in the real world (if Manson can be said to inhabit the real world) and fingled her beloved a 30-second cameo in the movie. Manson, sans makeup and in a leisure suit, still looks kind of creepy. That cameo, and Blacksploitation queen Pam Grier's appearance as Detective Vera Cruz, are the highlights of the movie.
Gayheart (better known as the Noxemale Girl) is charming, but has a difficult time looking like a teenager. McGowan is convincingly evil, but Benz adds nothing to her bland character.
The only thing that saves the movie from being a total bust is the ending. In many teen movies, all hell breaks loose at the prom, and Jawbreaker is no exception. The scene is well-crafted and satisfying, and is, therefore, out of place in this painful film. It's a great two minutes, but it's not worth sitting through the previous hour and a half.

When Todd Johnson, Hutchinson senior, visited England in December he was
By Kimberly Erb
December he was shocked at the amount of money he spent.
"London made even New York City look like a relatively inexpensive town," he said.
Johnson said that although he tried to remain conscious of the exchange rate — $1.6 to the pound—it was easy to overspend.
"I tried to cut down," he said. "It was hard to keep it under $100 a day."
Numbers like these can scare students from planning a trip to Europe. However, some people have discovered ways to cut costs without sacrificing the value of European experience.
Gil White, traveling lecturer and writer on European travel, said that meeting people should be the
key reason to go abroad.

"Europe on 84 Cents a Day," will give travel tips to University students Tuesday at 8 p.m. in the Kansas Union's Woodruff Auditorium. Much of his advice stems from his own travels. In 1980, he journeyed to 30 countries in four months, spending less than $1,000. White has returned to Europe several times since.
...
Iga could've saved money on postcards by using photos instead.
Organization and research prove most effective when searching for cost-cutting strategies, White said. Get airfare in advance,and take advantage of student rate programs. International Student Identification Cards offer discounts for museums, theaters and lodging.
"That's part of traveling," he said. "You learn about yourself while learning about others."
White said he preferred countries least like the United States, such as Hungary and the Czech Republic, because they offered a more diverse cultural experience.
"You're supposed to look at traveling as an adventure," he said, "Once you get over that shyness, it'll be incredible."
Students who have recently traveled through Europe agreed that resourcefulness was their greatest asset.
"Do your own research ahead of time," said Angela Kopp, Lenexa senior.
Kopp and three of her friends spent June 1998 voyaging abroad. In just a month, the four toured Austria, France, Spain, Germany and the Czech Republic.
She said that although the trek between countries could be costly, the Eurail pass offered an economical and rewarding option.
This pass provides unlimited, consecutive-day rail travel in 17 countries. The discount prices are only valid for second-class accommodations. Its rates list at from $338 for 15 days to $1,089 for three months. Eurail also offers limited passes to specific destinations and Flexipasses, which allow varying amounts of travel in a two-month period.
In addition to adult tickets, Eurail offers Youth Passes for travelers age 25 or younger.
"Specific area passes are a lot cheaper if there are specific areas you want to go," she said.
Kopp was able to travel firstclass to six countries for $375 because she used a site-specific Eurail pass.
Kopp said that although hitch hiking and cycling were also popular travel options, they were not suitable for all tourists. Hitchhiking can be dangerous, especially for women, and cycling is not always practical, she said. Kopp said that even lodging could be inexpensive if one knows where to look.
In some countries,such as Britain, host families will open their homes to travelers just for the opportunity to spend time with them, she said.
Kopp said that in Munich, Germany, a woman who had recognized that she and her friends were looking for accommodations offered to let them stay in her home for a small fee.
It was safe, she was helpful and they could come and go as they pleased, Kopp said. "It was like having our own personal tour guide," she said.
The group was also able to cut expenses by taking advantage of Europe's hostels, Kopp said. Hostels are supervised, inexpensive lodging accommodations for young people.

Traveling to Europe takes planning and research. Here are some organizations that provide information on resources, prices and travel advice:

Also try the Lonely Planet Web site for more information on travel to all over the world. www.lonelyplanet.com
"Plan ahead," Kopp said. "Call hostels the day before you get there so you'll get to stay there."
White said that although student housing and hostels were great ways to meet other foreigners, the only way to really get a feel for the culture was by living with the natives. Asking residents for room and board in exchange for a few dollars or chores facilitates priceless learning experiences. White said.
Iga spent eight months in France last year. After living with a native family for a few days, he moved into student housing.
"Staying with a family, it's good for a short period of time, but after that the freedom factor outweighs it," he said. "And you meet a lot of people in student housing."
Sam Iga, Plano, Texas senior advised exercising caution when thinking about staying with strangers.
"That's not always a good idea," he said. "You just have to know who dealing with. I myself, I don't think I'd do it."
White recommended purchasing food at farmers' markets, grocery stores or public cafeterias rather than restaurants.
Susan Vander May, Fairfield Conn., senior, traveled to Spain France, Italy and Switzerland between the summers of '97 and 98. She purchased bread, meat and cheese at grocery stores and carried a refillable water bottle to save money.
When she did eat out, Vander May avoided tourist stops and American cuisine, she said.
"Why go to a different country just to eat American food and be surrounded by Americans?" she asked.
Vander May also said that the power of alcohol could affect a person's cash flow.
"People would come back after drinking a lot, and in the morning they'd find that they'd spent a lot more than they meant to," she said.
Gunther Mueller, a guide for Europa Now Reise in Germany, a student travel agency, said that students often made the mistake of eating at American restaurants, such as McDonald's.
He said it was important to explore the entire city, not just the tourist attractions.
"Being adventuresome will not only broaden your horizons, it will save you money," he said.

Washington celebrates 500th career victory after 'Hawks defeat Sooners 58-54
By Matt James Kansan sportswrite
Kansas (20-7 overall and 10-4 in the Big 12) was able to contain, but not stop, the Sooners' dangerous scoring combination of Phylelesha Whaley and LaNeishea Caauffine. Each
It was a night to reflect and to look forward. The 21st-ranked Jayhawks overcame a talented opponent and 32 percent first-half shooting, giving coach Marian Washington her 500th career victory on Senior Night at Allen Fieldhouse.
"It took a lot of players and coaches to reach this point," Washington told the 3,800 fans during postgame ceremonies.
Washington said the milestone helped
establish a history and tradition of women's basketball at the University of Kansas.
"It was very frustrating." Sanford said. "I knew I had the second half to get back in there. I just tried to stay focused and give my teammates some energy from the bench."
The victory did not come easy for the Jayhawks, however. The 58-54 defeat of the Sooners was one of Kansas' most brutal games of the season. The two teams committed 39 fouls between them, and the Sooners did not hesitate to take the ball inside against their taller opponent.
"This was one of the most physical games I've seen in a long time." Washington said.
The tough inside play hurt Kansas early as Washington was forced to bench Nakai San-
rord and Jaclyn Johnson, two of her best inside players, for much of the first half with three fouls each.

Washington enjoys triumph in company of home crowd
By Michael Harrity
Kansan sportswriter
In the waning seconds of her 774th game as coach of the Kansas women's basketball team, Marian Washington worried that her team wouldn't pull out the win against Oklahoma for the 500th of her career. The setting was perfect: Last home game of the year — senior night for forward Nakia Sanford and guard Shandy Robbins — and an opportunity for her 10th
Those last minutes, though, were some of the longest of Washington's
26-vear career.
— and an opportunity for her 10th consecutive 20-win season.
She dumped her head into her hands with a little more than a minute left in the game, frustrated by her team's play. She stood with her arms raised above her head, hands spread, screaming for her team to play defense with 50 seconds left. She whitted down a referee with her glare as the game clock showed 38 seconds.
And finally, with 0:01.1 showing on the game clock. Washington rested.
The 58-54 Kansas win was secure after Oklahoma inbounded the ball.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 22).
You can do it yourself and save a lot of money this year. It'll be easier than usual to get a raise in April. The work goes all the way through the summer, and you should be complete by August. You might learn you have a natural talent. A partner could show an interest in helping around June. Travel looks good in November, if you've finished obligations by then. Career goals could change around December, but by next February you should be settled in firmly.
Aries: Today is a 6.
Taurus; Today is a 6.
Send notes to all the people who owe you money today. You might be surprised to find out how much you've loaned out that's never been repaid. You've got a generous heart, and you're kind of forgetful, so you're the perfect person to borrow from.
You should start off the day in a good mood. Be careful because as the day continues, your advantage weakens. Tomorrow you could find yourself in complete confusion. Make solid plans while you feel decisive.
Gemini : Todav is a 6.
You're being pushed to do what you do best, and that's not a bad idea. Think not only about what you're saying, but also about how you're being heard. If you disregard your audience's cherished belief, you might not get the reception you hoped for.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
nere's paperwork or bureaucratic snofus that need to be cleaned up. Conditions get a little more complicated as the day continues, and it's probably going to be a tiring evening. Best not to plan on going out.
Leo: Today is a 6.
The move you had planned isn't going to work, because you're being blocked. You still have a few tricks up your sleeve, but don't play them too quickly, and certainly don't get overconfident about a recent success.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Libra: Today is a 6.
This day could start out with worries about money, but don't let that get you down. If you need more for something fun, how about taking on a little more work? Go ahead and sign up for that overtime so you can get what you want.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
Saaittarius: Today is a 5.
You have awesome powers, but hold back just a little longer. A big opportunity will come later this week, and if you spend the time now getting ready, you'll be prepared when the opportunity happens.
Capricorn: Today is a 4.
A day that starts out as drudgery could end up exactly the opposite. That's due to the introduction of a new sparring partner. You two can learn a lot from each other, and today is only the beginning.
Capricorns are among the most generous people in the world, and they work harder than just about everyone to provide for the people they love. You should be proud to be a Capricorn, especially if you have to stop doing something you want to do and start doing something you have to do.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
There will be lots of new possibilities popping up over the next day or two — people with creative ideas that you could follow through on, people who'd like to get to know you better or engage you in philosophical dialogue. One word of caution: Stay away from the one who's after your money.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
Take it easy today. There are all sorts of wonderful opportunities, but it looks like there are some hidden problems, too. You should proceed for the next few days as if you were sailing over coral reefs. There's a beautiful harbor and a gorgeous island you can visit, if you're careful.

Win gives seniors historic memory
Continued from page 1B
totaled 14 points and six rebounds, keeping Oklahoma close down the stretch.
LION
Lynn Pride proved once again why she is considered by many to be one of the best players in the league.
The junior poured in 20 points and 11 rebounds for her seventh double-double of the season and saved her best for last. With the game deadlocked at 54-54, Pride made one of two free throws, giving the Jayhawks a narrow lead with three minutes remaining.
M
On Kansas' next possession, Oklahoma guard Stacey Dales made a steal near midcourt and appeared to be headed for the go-ahead lay-up, but Pride had another idea. She soared in from behind and pinned Dales' shot against the backboard, saving the lead and bringing the home crowd to its feet.
"I'd like to see it over and over again," Washington said. "It was just beautiful. She's an extraordinary athlete, and it was an opportunity to measure just how talented she is when she went up and did something like that."
Johnson then drained a running one-hander in the lane, stretching the lead to three, and Pride stole a long Oklahoma pass with 18 seconds remaining, which sealed the victory for the Jayhawks.
After the game, the Jayhawks focused on Pride's block as the difference.
Pride seemed unimpressed by her defensive highlight.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
"Everybody's talking about it but me," Pride said. "She went up for the lay-up and I just got up with her. It got the crowd hyped, so that's all that counts I guess."
Seniors Nakia Sanford and Shandy Robbins shared the spotlight with Pride on the emotional night, as each played her last game at Allen Fieldhouse. Both reflected on their careers during the post-game ceremony.
As excited as Washington and her players were about reaching the milestone victory, they all were glad to have the win behind them.
"As a freshman I came in and was a part of a lot of history, and now to have my last game here be a part of something else historic is a real good feeling. I'm going to really enjoy looking back on it." Sanford said.
"There was so much pressure trying to get something done for me, and I will always remember that," Washington said. "In that kind of a determination they can get a little tight. I think it's off their back now, so hopefully they'll start relaxing."
Sanford, who had eight points and four rebounds in her home finale, echoed her coach's sentiments.
"To say I helped Coach get that 50th win is an awesome feeling, but we have so much season left. This whole week I've been thinking I just want to get senior night over with so I could go ahead and cry and have it over with and move on."

Coach Marian Washington gathers with her players, who are wearing T-shirts celebrating her 500th win. Washington reached the mark Saturday night with a 58-54 win against Oklahoma.

Washington wanted nothing more than a win Saturday night. Before the game, she told longtime friend Peg Wittmer, who has worked on the team's radio broadcasts for more than 20 years, that No. 500 had to happen. A win on the road during the last two regular season games just would not feel as right as the confetti-throwing lovefest in the Fieldhouse following the win.
"We finally got it — what an incredible night," said Washington, as she held both nets the team cut down in the postgame celebration. "The 500 embraces a lot of players that had the same vision as I did."
Washington, now waving and smiling and clapping, looked toward the crowd of 3,800 at Allen Fieldhouse — the ascending feeling of tension now transforming into relief.
Washington was presented with a bouquet of flowers at midcourt as a sheet cake with 'Congratulations' inscribed in frosting was wheeled onto the court. After hugging Chancellor Robert Hemenway and Athletics Director Bob Frederick,

and accepting the game ball from Associate Athletics Director Amy Perko, Washington pumped her right palm upward repeatedly to the cheers of the crowd.
Then she took the microphone.
"Wow." Washington said. "Moments like this are difficult.. We've always had a great tradition for men's basketball." And now we have that for women's basketball."
Sanford, who along with Robbins addressed the crowd after the game, was still reeling from the emotional ride.
Goat
"This whole night hasn't really sank in yet, I'm still in a dream state," said Sanford, who scored eight points and had four rebounds in her final game at the Fieldhouse.
Though thrilled by the victory, guard Jennifer Jackson expressed disappointment after the game.
"I didn't get any of the cake," said Jackson, who scored 10 points. "It was all gone."
N
As for Washington, the happiness of the milestone victory is one that will last.
"There was so much pressure on the players trying to get something done for me and they gave it everything." Washington said. "And I will always remember that."

Track team misses top-5 finish
Individuals outshine squad's performance

Kansan sportswriter
Four points kept the Kansas men's track team from finishing in the top five, but its seventh-place overall finish at the Big 12 Indoor Championships at Kansas State was highlighted by four individual titles.
Texas blew everyone away by winning the men's and women's team titles.
Scott Russell dominated the weight throw, but the drama of the day belonged to runners Charlie Gruber and Kevin McGinn.
"On the men's side, we had a great meet," coach Gary Schwartz said. "We just had a super meet. A lot of people stepped it up for us in this championship."
On the first throw, Scott shut the door. He totally blew everyone else's mind. Schwartz said.
No one stepped up more than Russell, an All-American who also placed fourth in the shot put. His weight throw of 73 feet 6 inches set a new Big 12 Conference, meet and school record. The throw smashed the rest of the field by almost 10
the rest of the field by almost 10 feet.
Russell said he never even thought about reveling in his feat.
thought about revealing in his seat. "The throw speaks for itself. If you smoke somebody, they know it," he said.
McGinn's win in the mile run was exciting, coming down to the last 10 feet when McGinn edge out an Oklahoma State runner for the win
"We went out at a decent pace, but then it relaxed and that played to my favor," he said.
The title was the first of the year for the runner, who had been hampered by an injured foot during the last two weeks. But the injury did not enter his mind because he said he would not let himself think of getting any place other than first.
"Once I got out there it felt good and I knew it was going to be my day." McGinn said.
Although McGinn's strategy was to wait until the end and sprint past the competition, Gruber's was the exact opposite.
Gruber took the lead early in his .000-meter race and never relinquished it, despite a challenge with side
two lanes remaining.
"I had no idea where everyone else was around me. I just got out in front and ran scared." he said.
His time of 2:25:30 gave him a personal best and a conference title.
Pole vaulter Colby Miller also set a new personal best with a vault of 17 feet, 4 1/2 inches, earning him second place overall, while teammates Garrett Attig and Greg Steele finished sixth and seventh, respectively.
Despite the solid showing, jumps coach Rick Attig hoped for more.
"I really felt all three guys would jump over 16-10, because they're ready to do it," he said.
Other top-10 performances by Eric Patterson, sixth in 60-meter high hurdles; Lester Smith, sixth in the long jump and triple jump; Brian Jensen, fifth in the 5,000-meter run; and Ryan Speers, seventh in the shot put, rounded out the men's
Though the women's team finished a disappointing 12th, sophomore All-American Andrea Branson set a new Big 12 meet and school record in the pole vault with a mark of 12 feet, 9 1/2 inches, breaking teammate Candy Mason's one-year record of 12 feet 7 inches.
"I knew a conference title could happen, but it hasn't set in yet," Branson said.
The vault tied her for third nationally and automatically qualified her for the NCAA Indoor Championships.
A lot of my friends kept telling me that I'd better expect to win, but I doubt I'll make a big deal of it," she said. "If coach thinks it's a big deal, then it is, but I want to focus on nationals."

Jayhawks flounder in season-opening trip
Bv Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
The second road trip of the year provided the Kansas baseball team with a winless weekend.
The 'Hawks traveled to Phoenix, Ariz., to play in the Rawlings Spring Training Tournament and came away empty-handed. They were swept in four straight games.
Sunday, the team played its best of the four but lost in a 5-4 decision to the Northwestern Wildcats. The loss dropped the Javahawks' overall record to 2-5.
Pitcher Brian Schriner (1-1) lasted six and two-thirds innings, but could not get it
prevailed in the end.
"I thought we pitched pretty well today. Last night just took a lot out of us," Coach Bobby Randall said. "We just didn't have much on reserve."
Second baseman Duane Thompson provided the offensive spark as he went two for three with an RBI and a run scored.
KU
In Saturday's game the Jayhawks faced the Nevada Wolfpack, the same team they opened the tournament with on Thursday.
Much like Thursday's game, which the 'Hawks lost 10-1, the team was again overmatched as Nevada exploded for 25 hits and routed the Jayhawks 22-4.
Starter Chris Williams lasted four innings and struck out five batters, but gave up eight runs, threw one wild pitch and hit a batter.
Once Williams was taken out in the fifth, the Wolfpack poured it on the bulpen as they scored 13 runs in the next three innings.
Baseball
Shortstop John Nelson provided one of the few bright spots when he ripped a solo home run, his first of the year, in the third inning.
Third baseman Sparky Wilhelm had an RBI triple in the fourth. That was the last time the Jayhawks would score in the game.
First baseman Chad King extended his season long hitting streak to six games.
The Pacific Tigers used a seven-run eighth inning to overcome a five-run deficit in defeating the Jahwaws.
Rusty Philbrick pitched seven strong innings and gave up only three runs, but the relief pitchers could not hold the lead.
"Rusty Philbrick pitched an excellent game," Randall said. "Our bullpen just didn't get the job done."
Offensively, the game was a success, as catcher Shane Wedd tied a career high with three hits and outfielder Matt Van Alsburg hit his second home run of the season.
Despite the flashes of offensive ability, Randall said the team still was not where it needed to be.
"We have to find a way to close out a game," Randall said. "Our execution was poor, and we're still not cashing in on all our opportunities to score runs."
The team will wrap up its season-opening road trip and open Big 12 Conference play this weekend with a three-game series at perennial power Texas Tech.
It's been a unique season for the women's swimming and diving team.
The Jayhawks took third place at this year's conference meet, moving up one place from last year. Coach Gary Kempf was awarded Big 12 Coach of the Year and two records were broken.
Women climb the conference ladder
By Emily Hughey
Kansas sportswriter
"It's a tremendous tribute to the team's performance and their attitude," Kempf said.
From the first day, the Kansas team steadily maintained third place behind Texas and Nebraska. Ending the first day of the meet on a high note, the 400-yard medley relay broke a Kansas record set in 1987 and placed fourth. The team consisted of Kim Waite, Quincy Adams, Julie Tompkins and Adrienne Turner.
Waite also stood out individually Thursday. She placed fifth in the 50-yard freestyle and achieved her NCAA consideration time. The NCAA consideration time is the standard a swimmer must achieve to be considered to compete in the NCAA Championships. If there is room in the meet for more swimmers than just those who make the automatic qualifying time, those who receive a consideration time may have the
Kempf said he was happy after the first day of competition. He said that both the experienced seniors and the young swimmers did well, indicating their joint contribution to the quality of the Kansas swimming and diving program.
opportunity to swim.
KU SWIMMING
"It was a great day," Kempf said. "We had tremendous performances from our seniors today. That speaks well for our program. But today was a blend of the old and the new. We had some freshman step up today and alfive of our senior women."
Waite said that she felt ready to swim fast in her races and that the team motivated her to excel.
"I really like the whole team thing," Waite said. "I've never seen anything like it before."
On Friday, the momentum kept the team rolling with Turner's third-place finish and consideration time in the 100-yard butterfly. Waite's fifth-place finish and second consideration time in the 200-yard freestyle, and Adams' third-place finish and consideration time in the 100-vard breaststroke.
Saturday brought an end to the meet and the Big 12 Coach of the Year Award to Kempf. In the 200 yard backstroke, junior Rebecca Eustice placed sixth, Adams placed fifth in the 200 yard breaststroke and Turner placed third in the 200-yard butterfly. All three women made consideration times in their respective events.
Diver Rebecca McFall took seventh place in the platform competition with a Kansas record of 454.25.
The swimmers attributed their improvement to the team's chemistry. Wilk said she had never experienced such optimism in her career at Kansas.
Kempf said this women's team was one of which he was especially proud.
"The five seniors finished like any senior dreams of finishing their career. They have great leadership," Kempf said. "And the freshman stood up and said they were a force to be reckoned with."
Chenowith's 24 points end scoring drought
"The team was overwhelming this year," Wilk said. "The team chemistry was the best in all my four years at KU and it really showed."

"I think it was a big win for us and not just because of the timing of it," Kansas forward T. J.Pugh said. "Oklahoma is a very good team. They're the hottest team in the league."
On Saturday however, the Sooners were far from hot.
The Sooners' shooting was especially bad in the first half as they scored 14 points on 5 of 31 shots from the field for 16.1 percent and shot only 6.3 percent from long range on 1-of-16 shooting.
"The whole key was we were good defensively, but we caught Oklahoma on a day when they weren't hitting their shots, too." Williams said. "The whole team defensive aspect of the second half was about as good as we've played."
Oklahoma shot 26.5 percent from the field, the worst shooting performance by a Kelvin Sampson-coached Sooner team. The Big 12's most efficient three-point-shooting team connected on 7 of 32 shots from beyond the arc for 21.9 percent.
The Jayhawks limited Oklahoma's leading scorer Eduardo Najera (15.2 points per game) to nine points on 4-of-16 shooting
and held Eric Martin, the Sooners' second-leading scorer at 12.2 points per game, to eight points on 2-of-14 shooting.
"We played tough. We out battled them," Chenowith said.
"We played defense. The Kansas teams are supposed to play defense."
After going scoreleess in the Jayhawks' 62-47 win against Kansas State on Wednesday, the 7-foot sophomore canned his first seven shots and finished 9-
Maybe the biggest reason the Jayhawks defeated Oklahoma was the offensive reemergence of Chenowith.
of-13 from the field for his 24 points.
"It helped me when my first shot went in. It didn't feel good off my hand and it still went in." Chenwith said. "I was not embarrassed or frustrated after Kansas State. The coaches told me I played a great defensive game."
"Eric was phenomenal. His potential is unlimited," Pugh said. "When he plays the way he played today we're pretty tough 'o beat."
Chenowith continued his defensive dominance Saturday with a team-high 12 rebounds and three blocked shots.

Before Williams' historic victory, only three coaches had ever reached 300 wins in 13 seasons. North Carolina State's Everett Case claimed his 300th in the second game of his 13th season. Louisville's Denny Crum earned number 300 in his ninth game of his 13th season and Syracuse's Jim Boeheim reached 300 in the 13th game of his 18th season.
"What can you say, he's the fastest coach to ever do it and the only one to do
"He's basically a legend now," Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said. "He's getting to that status. He does things that no other coach has done. I'm so happy for him."
After Saturday's win, Robertson grabbed the game ball and, along with Pugh, presented it to Williams in the locker room
"It was very important, especially since Ryan and I were here for 200." Pugh said. "It something that he downplays all the time and thanks the players and says it's mostly them. But he's the greatest coach in America and it's something we really relish in being a part of."
"Coach Williams wanted us to downplay it," Pugh said. "I said we had to go against his wishes. It's something we all wanted for him and something that he deserved."

Jayhawks' defense stymies Oklahoma
NORMAN, Okla. — On the day when Kansas coach Roy Williams made history with his 300th career victory, he admitted he was more concerned with the present.
"I'm like everybody else, I like it, but I'm much happier about No. 18 for this team." Williams said about his record-setting 60-50 win against Oklahoma on Saturday. "And that's being very serious, I'm not being humble. This team has had to fight through adversity and they keep coming back."

Kanson sportswriter
On Saturday, the Jayhawks used a tenacious man-to-man defense and benefited from a 24-point offensive explosion from Eric Chenwith to improve to 18-8 overall and 10-4 in the Big 12 Conference. The win catapulted Kansas into a tie for second place in the Big 12 with Oklahoma (19-8, 10-4), after the Jayhawks had dropped to fifth place following a three-game skid.

Jayhawk fans can expect a tidal wave of tears tonight when four Kansas seniors play in their last game at Allen Fieldhouse.
Ryan Robertson, T.J. Pugh Chris Martin and Jelani Janisse are expected to start in the game against Oklahoma State, which begins at 8:35 p.m.
"I'm excited about it," Robertson said. "I just can't believe it's almost over. It seems like my four years have gone by so quickly. I'm sure it will be emotional and it will be a big night for T.J.and I and Chris and Jelani."
It will be especially emotional for seniors Robertson and Pugh, who have been integral parts of one of the most successful four-year runs in Kansas basketball history.
The Jayhawks have an overall record of 116-19 (an average of 29 wins a season) and have claimed three consecutive Big 12 Conference championships during that span. Kansas is 52-8 in conference games and has lost only three home games in four seasons.
Robertson and Pugh, who are roommates and are both Academic All-America candidates with cumulative GPAs of better than 3.65, will try to help the Jayhawks win their 16th straight game on Senior Night.
"It's going to be one of those things you have to experience." Pugh said. "I'm sure we'll be excited because there's a good basketball team coming in here. I'm sure there will be a little sorrow and a little nostalgia. It's going to be a lot of stuff combined all into one."
Kansas will face an Oklahoma
Robertson said it would not be easy for the Jayhawks to extend their six-game winning streak against the Cowboys.
"I think it's going to be very tough because they're a very good basketball team," Pugh said of the Cowboys, who are 18-8 overall and 9-5 in the Big 12. "We're going to have to come out and play well to get a win."
"It's going to be a battle," Robertson said. "They're going to
State team that has won consecutive games against two of the Big 12's top teams, Nebraska and Missouri.
come in fired up and we're going to have to match their intensity."
Pugh, who has been hampered by injuries all season, sprained his right ankle Saturday with 1:37 remaining in the game, but he said it would not stop him from participating in Senior Night.
"At first I thought it might be worse than a sprain, but after a few minutes I knew exactly what it was," Pugh said. "It's the last game of my career and I will not spend it sitting on the end of the bench."

Sudden snowstorm leaves students without a ride
By Katie Burford Jamie Knodel Kristi Reimer Kansan staff writers
A sudden snowstorm yesterday shut down KU on Wheels for about three hours, stranded some students and sent vehicles sliding into the ditch and into one another.
Despite the 3 inches of snow and temporary lack of transportation for some students, University of Kansas administrators kept classes in session in anticipation that conditions would clear and services would resume.
Cliff Blair, manager of Lawrence Bus Co., said bus services were suspended from about 11:40 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. because buses were having trouble getting through the snow. Lawrence Bus Co. provides the vehicles for KU on Wheels.
"Several accidents impeded our services, but we weren't involved in any accidents." Blair said.
Staci Shorter, Lawrence junior, and Lumain Paki Brown, Kansas City, Mo., senior, were waiting for their bus at 12:30 p.m. outside Bailey Hall.
Brown said he planned to walk home to his apartment at 28th and Iowa streets, about 15 blocks away.
"They should have canceled classes to avoid the risks in having students stranded in this weather." Shorter said.
Erika Winters, St. Louis senior, said that while she was waiting outside her apartment for her bus, a driver traveling the opposite direction informed her that no more buses would
run until conditions improved.
She so drove to school instead.
"My car slid on the ice, and I nearly hit a telephone pole," she said.
Winters, like other students, said she thought that if bus service was canceled, classes should be also.
Provost David Shulenburger said suspension of bus service was only one factor the University considered when deciding whether to cancel classes.
Shulenburger said it would be safer to keep classes in session, anticipating that bus service would resume, than to cancel and put hundreds of people on the streets at the same time.
"We obviously can't let a private firm determine whether the University of Kansas operates or not," he said.
But he said individuals should decide for themselves
whether it was safe for them to come. He said students should work with instructors to make up work if they had to stay home.
Ray Ammar, chairman of the physics and astronomy department, said instructors would use their discretion in determining whether to penalize students for missing class.
"As long as classes are scheduled, we must go through with that," he said.
Diana Carlin, associate professor of communication studies, teaches classes with mandatory attendance. She said she received three messages from students who would be unable
He said he thought absences would be a problem only in classes with scheduled examinations and labs.

Recreation task force searching for student approval of fee hikes
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Some student senators are divided on the issue of presenting a $15.5 million recreation center proposal to the student body for a referendum during the April elections.
During the next two weeks, the recreation task force, composed of the student body president, vice president, senators and other students, will attempt to gather the 1,000 student signatures necessary to put the proposal to a student vote.
The task force finalized its proposal last week, which would increase student fees $15 per semester in fall 2000 and $34 per semester in fall 2001.
The increased fees would fund a freestanding fitness and recreation center on campus solely for student recreational use almost 18 hours a day.
The center would include four multipurpose gymnasium courts, two racquetball courts, a cardiovascular fitness and weight training center. aerobic and dance studio, suspended walking and jogging track, rock climbing wall, martial arts studio, activities lounge, locker rooms and student service center.
Kevin Yoder, stu
fingers on the polls," he said. "We want to give students the opportunity to vote. It's real easy to cut down someone else's plan if you haven't done the research. Some people won't support it just for electoral purposes."
Partha Mazumdar, graduate senator, said that an increase in student fees could instead be used to fund scholarships or library improvements. He said that he was not sure if such an expensive center was necessary.
Kaiser, student body vice president, said that the task force considered a $1 million to $2 million addition to Robinson Center but that it was not realistic and did not receive as much support from student groups.
"If they can come up with something smaller, we can work together," Mazumdar said. "We want improvements, too."
RECREATION CENTER PROPOSAL
Linda Bang, Papillion, Neb. junior, said that she would use the new recreation center if it was open during the day.
The proposal said that Robinson Center:
■ Was a center that gave priority to academics and research instead of recreation.
- Was ranked 12 among other Big 12 Conference university centers.
- Was the smallest and oldest recreation center and was open for general recreational use the least number of hours among Big 12 schools
- Had a student recreation fee of $13, which was $33.91 less, on average, than the other Big 12 institutions.
dent body president, said that the task force conducted extensive research and student surveys to gauge the demand for a new recreation center.
"To have a healthy community and a good learning environment, we need a student recreation center," he said. "We felt that students did not think their needs were being filled."
Mark Horowitz, graduate senator, said that he was in favor of a recreation center but that the phone surveys conducted by the task force were flawed. He said that only the last question on the survey mentioned an increase in student fees and that it was ambiguous.
Yoder said that students responded positively to the last question, which asked how much of an increase they would most strongly support based on the recreation center options presented earlier in the survey.
"The methodology of the research was significantly problematic," Horowitz said. "The process of gauging student interest needs to be open and democratic. Everyone wants something except for when it comes down to their wallets."
Scott (Kaiser) and I feel that we have our
"My evenings are pretty busy, and I'm not going to wake up at 6:30 in the morning," she said. "If it was open during the day, I could see myself going more often. I wouldn't raise a ruckus if they added the cost on to student fees." The took force
The task force released the results of the phone survey last December in which a
maximum of 463 random students responded to questions about KU's recreation center.
Most students, or 78.4 percent, said that they were satisfied with the quality of services and activities at Robinson Center. But, 67.4 percent said that they felt that a new or improved recreational sports center should be a priority for the University.
A plurality of students polled, 38.1 percent,
said that they would most strongly support
a fee increase of $40 to $45 based on the

Kaiser said that if students voted for a new recreational center, construction would begin in Fall 2000 and that the center would be completed in Spring 2002.
Yoder said that the task force would choose a location for the new center after the student body voted. He said that he wanted the center to be located south of Watkins Memorial Health Center.
If the proposal passes a student body referendum, it must be approved by the Board of Regents this summer and the state Legislature next January.

Graduate teaching assistants hope to improve KU relations
GTAC co-presidents want more members and more cooperation
By Chris Hopkins Kansan staff writer
Recently elected co-presidents of the Graduate Teaching Assistant Coalition they hoped to fix the tumultuous relationship between the University's administration and GTAC.
An argument between the chancellor and a member of GTAC arose last Wednesday during a town hall meeting at the KU Visitors Center. Mark Horowitz, former GTAC president, and Robert Hemenway argued about KU's support of legislation that would have taken away the union's power to negotiate by
Ophra Leyser and Joy Wrolson, new GTAC co-presidents, said that the union would try to avoid basing future decisions on past actions against the union by the University.
removing the member's public employee status.
"I think our main goals are solidifying the union and working with the administration," Wrolson said. "We really do need to look into the future and develop our shared goals."
But Wrolson and Leyser are both new to the University this year and said that they wanted to improve relations with the University.
Leyser said that she didn't think that opening a dialogue with the administration would be difficult.
Hemenway said that he was entirely in favor of building better ties with GTAC.
"I think the harder part will be coming to a happy medium," she said.
"I'm interested in having the best possible relationship with our GTAs," he said.
Since the new GTA contract was negotiated last year, GTAC member participation has declined.
Wrolson said it also was common for students to stop participating after the passage of a contract when they felt their needs had
been satisfied.
Wes Beal, GTAC organizer, said that because of the short amount of time that GTAs spent at the University, it was critical to have a quick turnaround in member participation.
Leyser thought that after putting in 30 hours a day trying to get a contract through, the members felt exhausted and had taken a bit of a break from participation.
Beal said that all of the previous coalition officers, Horowitz, secretary Helen Sheumaker and treasurer George Lundskow, probably would be done with school and would leave KU soon.
About 20 percent of the University's GTAs are members of GTAC, a number that both new presidents would like to see improve.
"It's all along the lines of having a base big enough to where the work doesn't all fall on one person." Beal said.
An increased number of members would mean that responsibilities would be even out.

In-state status for graduate students would cause $700,000 fund shortage
By Kristi Reimer
Kansan staff writer
A bill in the Legislature granting in-state residency status to graduate students who have been awarded national fellowships raises concerns about the loss of income KU would experience as a result.
Rep. Tom Sloan, R-Lawrence, has introduced legislation that would allow out-of-state graduate students at Regents universities to pay in-state rates for whatever tuition their fellowships didn't already cover.
"In order to attract quality graduate students, we need to be competitive for these fellowships," Sloan said. "If we can't get a waiver for these students, we don't attract them."
Provost David Shulenburger said passage of the bill would cause a $700,000 loss in tuition revenue.
"We're seriously underfunded
as it is," he said. "The University can't support anything that would reduce tuition receipts by that amount."
are two sides to the issue."
Shulenburger said that other universities either waive'
A. R.
uition or offered instate rates to fellowship recipients and that competing with those schools was difficult. "We need every advantage possible, but we also need the funding," he said. "The
Sloan: The bill doesn't include how KU could manage the financial loss.
Andrew Debicki, dean of the graduate school, agreed.
"The idea of exempting fellowship holders from tuition payments is great, but the bill does
n't furnish the money," he said.
"It doesn't solve the problem because the money has to come from somewhere."
Shulenburger said the University would like to see a fiscal note added to the bill that would restore the budget shortfall created by the change.
But Sloan said that if KU lost students to universities that already offered in-state status to students with fellowships, then the change would not create a shortfall in the budget.
"I'm told that reputation and image is partly dependent on the quality of the graduate students," Sloan said. "If they're not attracting the students now, they're not losing anything."
The bill has been referred to the Education Committee, but Sloan said that as long as the University opposed the bill it was unlikely to pass.

Proposed funding increase would benefit KU veterans
A bill which would increase funding to the GI Bill and other veteran's benefits is being discussed in the U.S. Senate.
The bill was presented yesterday and will be amended today.
If passed, it would allow four-year vet erans of the military to attend any school in the country at the government's expense.
Veterans also could buy a home without a down payment, would receive a retirement plan and would receive subsidized health care.
The changes would cost about $3 billion during five years.
The adjusted GI Bill, which would fully finance college for veterans for the first time since the aftermath of World War II, would affect half of the University of Kansas' 300 student veterans.
Mock trial team qualifies for national tournament
The University of Kansas mock trial team, which has existed for two years qualified for the national tournament for the second-consecutive year last weekend.
KU placed third in its region. Other qualifiers were Drake University, Washburn University and the University of South Dakota.
Two individuals with the team also garnered recognition. Natalie Vorak, Wichita freshman, was selected as best witness and Tara Kelly, Overland Park sophomore, was selected as best attorney.
Kelly said that she liked the team's chances at nationals, even though she said the team didn't place last year.
"I actually think we'll do really well," she said. "We work really well as a team."

Minority Office to search for new staff members
The Office of Minority Affairs is short one staff member and will be short two before summer.
Williams said that the new post was a step up for him.
Julius Williams, former assistant director of minority affairs, began his new position yesterday as executive director of the Kansas African-American Advisory Commission.
"I'll be reporting to the secretary of the department of human resources and the seven commissioners that make up advisory commission for the state of Kansas," he said.
Williams said his salary also would be higher at his new job.
Sherwool Thompson, director of the office of minority affairs, also will take a new position this summer with the University of Georgia as the director of of minority services and programs.
Thompson was on vacation yesterday and was unavailable for comment.
Williams said that his departure from the Office of Minority Affairs and Thompson's decision to accept University of Georgia position were unrelated.
James Kitchen, dean of students, said that they would begin a search for a new director after the paperwork had been finished regarding Thompson's departure.
Kitchen also said that a search had not yet begun for candidates to replace Williams.

Student lands in jail after showing police false I.D.
A KU student was arrested after he gave police a fake identification card at 12:34 a.m. Sunday in the parking lot of West Hills apartment complex, 1012 Emery Road, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Police were originally dispatched to the 1000 block of Emery Road on a report that a person was in the West Hills parking lot kicking cars, Wheeler said.
An officer arrived and asked the student for identification. The officer arrested the 20-year-old man when he discovered the identification card he gave him was false. Wheeler said.
The student was released at 6:25 a.m. Sunday on $250 bond.
Two men connected to late-night car burglaries
Two men, including one Lawrence resident, were arrested in connection with four car burglaries that happened around midnight Sunday in the parking lot of Eddingham Place, 1501 Eddingham Drive, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Another broken car window was discovered in the Cottonwood parking lot, bringing the total of burglarized vehicles to five.
Residents of the apartment complex described to police the car the suspects were driving. An hour later, an officer was passing by the parking lot of Cottonwood Incorporated, 2801 West 31st St., when he saw two men with a flashlight in a blue Chevy Cavalier matching the description of the burglars' vehicle, Wheeler said.
Investigation produces embezzlement suspect
The investigation of funds embezzled from the Office of the Comptroller, 20 Carruth O'Leary Hall, between 8 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., Jan 27, led police to a single suspect, said Maj. Chris J. Keary of the KU Public Safety Office.
Keay said the person implicated in the stolen $634,848 in cash was an employee who no longer worked in the office at the time the theft was discovered.
Findings from the investigation were sent to the Douglas County District Attorney's Office. The district attorney will determine what charges to file in the case.
The money was embezzled from deposits that the Comptroller's Office was making for various departments on campus, Keary said.

Family planning clinic receives anthrax threat
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — People at a Planned Parenthood clinic stripped to their underwear to be decontaminated Monday after a letter was received threatening anthrax contamination.
A letter with a Kentucky postmark arrived in the mail at the midtown clinic. The envelope contained a substance and a letter threatening contamination, said FBI spokeswoman Bridgett Patton.
Twenty-four people, including seven firefighters who responded to a call shortly after 9 a.m., went through the decontamination process in which they were washed with soap and bleach.
The FBI was arranging to have a test kit flown in from its headquarters in Quantico, Va., to determine if the substance was anthrax, which can cause flu-like symptoms in humans if it is inhaled. It can be fatal if not treated early enough with antibiotics.
The clinic has been the target of regular protests by those opposed to abortion. Protesters frequently appear on Saturday mornings to shout their message through bullhorns and attempt to discourage women from entering the clinic.
Similar letters were sent to clinics throughout the country last week. At least 14 letters claiming to contain anthrax were mailed to abortion and Planned Parenthood centers across the nation and were postmarked in Lexington, Ky., a Louisville postal inspector said.
ON THE RECORD
A KU student was arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence at 3:55 a.m. Sunday at the intersection of 11th and Mississippi streets, the KU Public Safety Office said. The student was released at 2:27 p.m. on $500 bond.

"Most of us are pretty reasonable," she said.
She said she thought instructors would be understanding about transportation difficulties.
Tom Orzulak, Lawrence street division manager, said that because the snow fell hard and fast roads became slick quickly. Although city crews were prepared for the storm, traffic congestion slowed workers down.
Poor road conditions caused several accidents in Lawrence and on campus.
A fire truck responding to an accident call was heading east on W. Ninth Street near Avalon Road when the truck began to slide and hit a beer truck that was crossways in the road, said Jim McSnow of the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department.
Four cars, which were unable to stop on the icy hill, hit the fire truck, McSwain said. There were no injuries in the pileup. McSwain said he was still waiting on details about the wreck.
Lt. Schuyler Bailey of the KU Public Safety Office said that seven car accidents on campus occurred but that there were no injuries.

Fraternity extends aid for leukemia patients
By Jamie Knodel
Knapp staff writes
Kansan staff writer
One University of Kansas fraternity is hoping to make a direct impact on leukemia patients' lives.
Last night, the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity kicked off a drive that encourages members to register with the National Marrow Donor Program.
Once listed on the nationwide registry, the KU fraternity members could be matched with leukemia patients in need of a bone marrow transplant.
"This is a good opportunity for us to do something for people other than just raise money," said Mark Felisky, Phi Gamma Delta philanthropy chair and Larned junior. "It's hands on."
For the last 25 years, the fraternity has worked to raise money for the Leukemia Society of America. Felisky said that in December he was approached by a fraternity alumnus who suggested that the group be more involved with the organization in a way that would directly benefit patients.
"This way we could be saving people's lives," Felisky said.
There are 3,000 people searching the national registry of donors to find a match, said Margaret Brede, nurse coordinator of the Heart of America Donor Center in Kansas City, Mo.
Felisky said he hoped to have 50 Phi Gamma Delta fraternity members registered as donors by spring break.
Matt Dallman, Phi Gamma Delta member and Prairie Village junior, said that he planned to register on the donor list.
"This program is about going the extra mile," he said.
Debbie Kite, Leukemia Society of America Patient Services manager, said that there was a $65 fee for Caucasians to register as donors. She also said that minorities were registered without cost because there was a larger need for minority donors.
Felisky said that he was working with alumni so that the registration fee would be covered and that the fraternity members would not have to pay.
Kite said that there were certain

requirements that an individual must meet. She said that someone could be disqualified if he had gotten a tattoo within the last year.
After meeting basic qualifications, Kite said potential donors gave a blood sample that was tissue typed and then listed with the national database.
"It could be a month to 14 years before a match is made." Kite said.
Once a preliminary match has been made, the donor is contacted and more extensive tissue typing and a physical examination are done. Kite said that if everything was successful an aspiration of bone marrow was set up.
Kite said that the transplant involved drawing marrow from the donor's hip, which left them sore for a few days.
"I've heard that the process is painful," Dallman said. "But if the time comes, I think I'll be prepared."
As the donor's marrow is harvested, the patient simultaneously undergoes extensive chemotherapy to get rid of the diseased blood. The donor's marrow is then transplanted to the patient, and if successful, the patient's marrow starts to produce healthy blood. Kite said.

"The actual transplant is painful, but all we are committing to right now is to give blood." Fellsky said.

HOW TO LAND YOUR DREAM INTERNSHIP (Even the one you didn't know existed)
If you're starting to think about your career, even just an inkling, it may be time to focus on finding a summer internship. Following are some "insider" insights about how to land your dream internship in some of today's fast-forward industries like media, entertainment, fashion and high-tech, that likely don't recruit on campus.
WHAT TURNS YOU ON?
CREATE YOUR OWN JOB
Not the typical first question you might think of when plotting your first career experience, but you really should think about it. The best places to work are often the places that make or do things that already interest you. And who wrote the rule that work shouldn't be fun? "It helps to start by thinking about which classroom topics interest you the most and what hobbies get you excited," says Samer Hamadeh, President of Vaultreports.com and the co-author of "America's Top Internships" and "The Internship Bible," two of the most useful books on the subject. Take his advice and ask yourself some
questions. Do you spend a lot of time listening to music and going to concerts? Maybe you should check out working for a local radio station, a record label or a music publishing company.Are you a devoted athlete? Try contacting a fun sporting goods company,a fitness magazine.or a sports talent agency.
After you've asked yourself what you like, and thought of some of your favorite products and activities, you may find that many of your choices lead to smaller or less structured companies that likely don't recruit on campus, or that don't have a formal internship program. Don't get discouraged!! In fact, think of it as a huge opportunity because you can potentially create your own job! There's nothing wrong with calling or writing a company out of the blue and letting them know who you are and what you're interested in. Many of the smaller companies will be thrilled to have been approached and more than likely can use the extra hands for the summer. One of Hamadeh's favorite stories is about a college student who was interested in sports law. The guy figured that Michael Jordan's lawyer must be pretty good at it, so he read a bunch of newspaper articles until he found the guy's name, then he wrote him a letter explaining why he wanted to work for him. "The lawyer had never received a letter like that from anyone before."
CHECKITOUT.
The Secret Success Series
Hamadeh says, "So he brought him in for an interview and was so impressed that he hired him for the summer."

Just because you may not graduate cum laude doesn't mean you wont qualify for some of the most selective internship programs." You have to make yourself sound interesting." says Price Hicks, who hooks students up with summer jobs at places like Warner Brothers as part of her work with the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences."The guy who wrote about growing up on a dairy farm is the one we remember best." The people, who may have the best grades, but drone on and on about why they want to be television directors all tend to blend together, she says.
Remember that the purpose of an internship is to gain experience.The idea is to "test drive" career options that you think might

major beat out a slew of journalism majors for one of three highly coveted internships at the Center for Investigative Reporting. Out of approximately 90 applicants, she was among those with the least direct experience."It just so happened we were working on a project about chemicals in the environment, so her skills came in handy and she ended up playing a big role in the reporting." said Maryann Sargent, who is the internship coordinator at the Center.
REMEMBER THAT SMALL CAN BE BIG
Sometimes, you really may be better off going to work for a company where the duties of an intern aren't well defined. In small but super fast-growing internet companies, for instance, there's always a lot going on, so interns can often show up on day one and pick the things that interest them the most. "Our interns will always be working on several different projects," says Jeff Daniel, who runs a cool new service called CollegeHire.com that helps match up undergrads with high-tech and internet-related internships and entry-level jobs. "We look for people who can adapt well to the culture of fast-moving
companies and can excel in an environment there
environment that's changing rapidly." Big change means new opportunities, and that's where a hungry intern can step into new exciting areas and make a big contribution.

Clinton's pledge to Kosovo traps 4,000 troops within futile conflict
Last week, President Clinton pledged up to 4,000 U.S. troops to implement a peace deal in Kosovo.
This week in Paris, Madeline Albright will decide whether United States armed forces will conduct air strikes against Serbia or whether U.S. troops will be deployed to enforce a new Balkan peace deal.
The United States should not conduct air raids and should not deploy more ground forces to Serbia.
In 1987, Serbian dictator Slobodan Milosevic came to power.
In 1989, he took autonomy away from Serbia's southern province. Kosovo.
Milosevic desired a Greater Serbia, and his attempts to incorporate Bosnia and Croatia led to ethnic cleansing and the deployment of a NATO peacekeeping force, including 6,900 American troops, in 1995.
In Kosovo, citizens elected a shadow government, and oppression from the Serbs led to the formation of the Kosovo Liberation Army, known as the KLA. The KLA is a terrorist organization that killed Serbs with the intention of forcing Kosovo's independence from Serbia.
Serbian police responded by attacking the KLA and killing many civilian supporters in the same vicious style as in Bosnia.
ns led to international concern and peace talks, which started last week in Rambrouillet, France.
The United States already has 6,900 troops in Bosnia and an additional 350 in neighboring Macedonia. This mission costs the United States more than $2 billion annually. This is a huge drain on the U.S. military.
Air raids, deployment of U.S. military forces will prolong the Balkan dilemma.
According the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the U.S. military cannot afford to give pay raises, buy necessary spare parts or upgrade equipment because of a lack of funds. In light of these commitments and limitations, plunging into another broadly defined peacekeeping mission with no clear time frame or exit strategy would be foolish.
There is no national security goal for the United States in Kosovo. This conflict is a civil war that should be dealt with by the warring parties, not the United States There is fear of the conflict broadening to create a European war.
These worries are far fetched.
Spreading this conflict to U.S. allies requires many nations to be very shortsighted.
It seems unlikely that these nations would quickly go down the path to war.
We should remember that although one of the reasons American forces were deployed in Bosnia was to prevent the conflict from spreading to places like Kosovo, the conflict spread anyway.
If the United States were going to strike, it would need to establish a better policy in Serbia. By striking Serbia, our warplanes would
become the air force of the KLA.
Though Clinton has promised a limited engagement with clear objectives and exit strategies, this is unlikely.
The one-year mission in Bosnia is now headed toward its fourth year, clear evidence that Clinton's promises on foreign policy are worthless.
One major problem with military action is Russia. Serbia is a Russian ally. Russian Prime Minister Yevgeny Primakov has voiced the possibility of Russian aid to Serbia if NATO takes military action against Serbia.
As recently as Saturday, both Primakov and Boris Veltsin voiced opposition to military action in Serbia. Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov echoed those sentiments yesterday. U.S. relations with Russia already are strained, and further damage could lead to stiffer Russian opposition to U.S. efforts to contain Iraq and prevent nuclear missile proliferation.
American diplomats should try for greater Russian cooperation on these key issues in exchange for U.S. opposition to air strikes.
The Serbs have expressed willingness to grant Kosovo some autonomy as long as NATO stays away.
This compromise should be accepted.
By staying out of Kosovo, the U.S. will keep its servicemen and women out of harm's way, will save billions of dollars and will allow Serbians and Kosovars to determine the fate of peace in Serbia and Kosovo.

Perspective
the Family and Personal Protection Act, which will allow Kansans to lawfully carry concealed weapons.
Concealed guns furnish protection to Kansans
The Kansas Legislature has been considering what will be, for some people, the most important piece of legislation to be considered this year. The proposed law is
103
Who are the persons affected? That's anybody's guess. You never can tell who will be the next victim of a violent crime. Unfortunately, Kansas is one of only six states that does not provide a process by which citizens can seek to protect themselves.
Rodger Woods
Guest columnist
None of the 22 states that have adopted concealed-
Allowing law-abiding citizens to make their own choices regarding the own protection has been quite the opposite effect.
carry legislation in the past 10 years have developed feared situations similar to the Wild West.
States, such as Vermont, Indiana and Michigan, that allow qualified citizens to carry concealed weapons have homicide rates 33 percent lower and robbery rates 37 percent lower than states that do not.
Although the statistical analysis implies a decrease in crime, it shows nearly no increase of accidental shootings and less than .002 percent of license holders involved in a gun-related crime, that is not the core of the issue.
The real issue is between personal choice and emotional appeal of those who don't believe Kansans should have choices.
Certainly, carrying a concealed weapon is not for everyone. It's a matter that requires careful consideration, soul searching and should be based on personal beliefs and circumstances.
Yet, like many other personal decisions, it's one that is best left to the individual, not the state.
Indeed, the reduced likelihood of being the victim of a violent crime varies as well.
Those living in high crime areas see a much more dramatic decrease in crime than the
inhabitants of lower crime areas. People living in poor areas of Kansas are not allowed to carry a concealed weapon for self-defense and have much more limited police protection than more affluent areas.
The benefits of having a firearm during a violent confrontation are much more pronounced for women than for men. Because the physical disparity between men and women is more pronounced, the equalizing effect of a firearm is greater. Why so many people are willing to causally deprive women of their single best means of self-defense really is beyond me.
Katherine Rose-Mockry, director of the Emily Taylor Women's Resource Center, said in the Kansan that because the majority of rapes and sexual violence occur between people who know each other, it's less likely that a woman would have a weapon with her.
First, knowing someone isn't the same as trusting them. Second, her statement completely ignores those who are attacked by people whom they don't know.
She went on to say that the women's center organizes self-defense workshops. Unarmed physical combat against someone much stronger, heavier and more aggressive should be a last resort.
The most troubling statement was her "concern" that a woman using a weapon during a confrontation might be charged with a crime rather than the aggressor.
I find it difficult to accept that Rose-Mockry thinks that women are incapable of determining when they are being assaulted. Second, the idea that it would be better not to defend yourself by the best means available because of a risk of legal problems, is an outrage.
To suggest that continuing to deny law-abiding citizens the right to carry a concealed weapon is an effective means of deterring crime is completely misguided and based on fear mongering. Nearly every other state in the Union allows citizens to make their own choices on personal protection. It's time that Kansans have the same choices.

hattan. Times are changing here in the Sunflower state. Yep, as much as we jayhawks hate to admit, the Kansas State cult is slowly attempting to usurp Kansas as the favored school, and it makes me sick.
Kansas State lies smack dab in the middle of nowhere. Well, it is near a dirty, polluted creek and a lot of cow pastures, but what isn't, in Kansas? Yes, the "Little Apple," is about as backwater of a town that you'll find in the state — except for the small town. Friend, that has gravel streets and a log cabin with a statue of John Wayne on the porch.
I bet that kids in Manhattan are just plum excited with their Atari video game consoles and their Pogo Balls. I even hear the K-State computer department is getting some Apple computers with Oregon Trail.
The one thing that keeps Manhattan residents filled with Manhappiness is their ever-loving hatred of the KU Jayhawks. Without us, they couldn't exist.
K-State cult members really are bitter people. They call us names like Gayhawks and GayU (which I guess means we're a happy college), and they really get me riled up when they compare our sports programs. Before 1990, K-State was the laughingstock of college
football, much like it is the laughingstock of college basketball now. If you talked to a K-Straighter you would think that they had won 50 National Championships in basketball and 70 in football, when in reality all they win every year is the National Livestock Judging Championship. Now that's something I look for in a university. I bet it's pretty distracting when you have your math class in the same room as the manure analyzing class.
One of K-State's campus buildings even has an indoor rodeo rink. I always thought Wescoe was missing something.
I remember back in the '80s, Willie the Wildcat was a happy little fluffy Tom and Jerry rip-off kitten that wore a white turtleneck and waved a K-State banner. Now it's a futuristic half-human/half-robot Power Cat with a too-big-for his-body head that makes him look as if he's suffering from gigantism. And that thing they do when they count his push-ups? That's really nice. They can count. It's good to see the younger cult members aren't following their older ones' example and are learning how to count.
And what is with their mascot? A purple Wildcat? That has about as much to do with the state of Kansas a red and blue bird with a big, yellow beak. Sorry, bad example.
K-State has a more "Kansas" feel to it than KU. They have lots of cattle; we have singing Hare Krishnas. They like Jeff Foxworthy; we like Carrot Top. They talk with country drawl and spit tobacco, while we talk with Chicago accents and spit out our Starbucks cappuccino when it's too cold.
It's good that we have such silly opponents in life. It's fun to look at your foes and giggle. We only can hope that the Cult of the Wildcat will realize the folly of their ways, return to their families and get some serious treatment. Until then, I will turn my head at those in purple and think of Dr. Naismith riding a pony through the Kansas prairie, and I will smile.

Feedback
City Commissioners deserve pay raise
The editorial board's objection to the Lawrence City Commissioners' pay increase fails to consider some important points.
Being a commissioner is a heavy burden. Commissioners spend at least 30 hours a week in meetings and doing research; therefore, one cannot hold the typical 40-hour per week job while being a commissioner.
When only making $6,000 per year, the only people who can afford to run for the commission will be those who are wealthy.
If you look at the Lawrence City Commission, you see four business people and a KU professor. These aren't exactly poor people.
Maybe they do not need the pay raise themselves, but the low pay may prevent low-income or no-income people from running.
To open the political process (historically dominated by the wealthiest of our society) to all people, decent salaries for public officials are essential.

Free events, snacks to mark remodeling of Union auditorium
By Tiffany Seeman Special to the Kansan
Free movies, lectures and popcorn will mark the grand re-opening of Woodruff Auditorium on the fifth floor of the Kansas Union.
The auditorium was closed for more than five months for a $490,000 renovation. The renovations enhanced the lighting, seating and sound in the auditorium, which will now be used for a variety of functions.
To mark the re-opening, Student Union Activities will sponsor several free events this week.
Traveling abroad inexpensively will be the topic of a free lecture by Gil White, author of *Europe & the World on $8.4 a Day*. The lecture will begin the week's events at 8 tonight.
"White is so crazy about traveling cheaply that he is flying in on Saturday for the lecture Tuesday so that he can get the cheaper weekend rates," said Cody Simms, SUA forums coordinator.
Tomorrow will begin the showing of the first of four free movies in the renovated auditorium. A sneak preview of Analyze This, starring Robert DeNiro, will be at 8:00 p.m.
The movie Slam will be shown at 7 p.m. and Beloved will be shown at 9 p.m. Thursday through Saturday. A midnight film, Black Samson also will be offered on these days.
"We're offering these movies for free this week to celebrate the reopening of the renovated Woodruff Auditorium," said Jeff LaCroix, SUA vice president for University of Kansas relations.
SUA also is offering free popcorn at the box office, as well as coupons for 75 cent sodas at the Union candy counter.
Improvements to Woodruff Auditorium include everything from better lighting to re-upholstered seats.
"The Kansas Union is supposed to be the living room of the University, and we want it to be a nice living room," said Wayne Pearce.

The lighting capabilities were upgraded to include strip light lighting along the aisles and stage, and improved dimming lights. Pearce said that these lights would enhance the atmosphere for movie viewing and also improve the stage for guest speakers.
"The new sound system is a 300 percent increase from our previous system," Pearce said.
The new system includes six speakers and multi-channel surround sound. This sound system is capable of operating independently of the already installed Network Event Theater system for movies and special broadcast events. The NET system is contracted through SUA.
LaCroix said that other important additions were the installation of a wheelchair lift, wheelchair seating and plug-in capabilities for the those who are hearing-impaired. These additions made Woodruff compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act. he said.
The free SUA movies will be offered this week only. Vouchers are available at the SUA box office.

Regional debate tournament dedicated to Whitman coach

Participants inspired by cancer struggle

By Ezra Sykes Kansan staff writer
Arguments and rebuttals resounded throughout Wescoe Hall, but debaters from across the country had a different kind of battle on their minds — a topic they could all agree upon.
Becky Galentine's fight against breast cancer and promotion of breast cancer awareness were the themes of the 42nd annual Donn W. Parson Heart of America debate tournament this weekend.
Galentine, a debate coach at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Wash., was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995 at the age of 25.
Although Galentine was unable to attend the tournament because of her illness, she was given the Donn W. Parson Young Educator Award at the awards ceremony yesterday morning.
Adam Symonds, a debater from Whitman College, has known Galentine for the past three years and read the first half of an acceptance speech that she had prepared.
After a period of remission in 1996, the cancer returned a year later, and she had to undergo high-dose chemotherapy.
"It is a big impact on me to see someone in the prime of life and have breast cancer," said Symonds before the ceremony. "Most think of women with breast cancer as 40 or 50. I looked at the disease and how I valued my life. It has that effect on others who meet Becky."
Also at the ceremony, a clip of the film 2 Chicks, 2 Bikes, 1 Cause was shown that contained a segment of Galentine undergoing a bone scan and treatment for cancer.
Symonds, who shaved his head to signify his support for Galentine (hair loss is a side effect of chemotherapy), said that her
courage and strength in her battle with cancer was inspiring.
"She's one of those people that you have to notice," he said. "Her presence is very large."
Galentine said in a phone interview that her students had been supportive in several ways.
"Certain individuals have been here to spend the day with me when I'm at my sickest. They made time to logistically help out. One even came to the doctor with me.
"But more importantly, teaching and learning with them and being needed by them and watching them blossom as debaters has kept me alive. They are the best drug on the market I've ever found."
Sean Harris, debate coach for the University of Puget Sound, held back tears as he read the second half of Galentine's acceptance speech, in which she said that debate had offered her a shield from cancer.
A five-page handout was distributed at the tournament in which Galentine described her cancer experiences, methods of detection and a diagram of how to do a breast self-examination.
"You know that debate is pretty much how I keep fighting this disease," she wrote in the handout.
After the ceremony, Harris said that he had spoken to Galentine Sunday night and that she sounded pretty well.
"She was amazingly appreciative of everything KU had done to raise awareness," said Harris, who was once coached by Galentine at Whitman College.
But breast cancer wasn't all that was on her mind.
"She was concerned about how her team was doing," said Harris, with a grin on his face. "She's still very much a coach. Nothing will ever change that."
Galentine said when she received an e-mail telling her that the tournament would be dedicated to breast cancer awareness, she began to cry.
"I'm still at a loss for words," she said.
Although she said her cancer would probably not go into remission again, Galentine said she felt better now than she had in the past two years.
"I feel too damn good to be dying," she said.

Seniors say good-bye to KU players, University
Four years ago Ryan Robertson, T.J. Pugh and Paul Pierce first entered the friendly confines of Allen Fieldhouse. Pierce has moved on to bigger and better things but is still a member of this class of seniors in my mind.
Four years ago, I moved my belongings into the friendly confines of Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin

It's scary how fast it's gone.
Now it's finished. The class will never step on the floor of the fieldhouse again wearing the crimson and blue of a Kansas uniform.
As a sophomore, Robertson filled in when point guard Jacque Vaughn had surgery on an injured wrist. Robertson led the Jayhawks to a perfect 11-0 record, giving hope to all of us underclassmen that we, too, could play ball with the big boys. Of course, most of us didn't have three first round NBA draft picks watching our backs.

There has hardly been a class at Kansas that has achieved more success than this one. During their four years as Jayhawks, Robertson and Pugh compiled a 116-19 record, have won three conference championships, were a part of the 62-home game winning streak and have made three NCAA tournament appearances.
SENIORS
Pugh has fought back from more injuries than I can begin to remember. He has made me feel better about myself after breaking my arm and blowing out my knee playing soccer in my years at the University. If Pugh could fight back to play for the sometimes top-ranked Jayhawks, I could fight back and play for the club soccer team.
Janisse joined Kansas after playing two seasons at Los Angeles City College. His season last year was hampered by preseason ankle surgery. This year Janisse is perfect from the floor, with 10 points on 4 for 4 shooting, including the first bucket in last night's game. He is thinking about walking on the football team. Janisse has shown us that perseverance is always possible.
Martin found a spot on the basketball team after surviving walk-on tryouts. Although he has not seen much playing time, Martin has fulfilled a dream of his by playing at Kansas. Martin has given hope to all of us that our dreams also can come true if we work hard and dedicate enough time to fulfilling them.
Seniors, thanks for the memories We'll miss you.
their debut bathhouse — are my chas.
My first basketball game as a student was their first game as college players. I can still remember that first exhibition game at Allen Fieldhouse. The first time we all saw Pujue drive the baseline and explode for a one-handed dunk. The first time Pugh stepped on the court and fans decided they should vell "PUUUUGGGHH."
That night Pierce sprained his ankle. The next day at the Kansas football game, I still remember two fans behind me saying, "Why don't they make an announcement about how that freshman Pierce is doing? More people care about that than this football game."

Robertson's shot in overtime snags Senior Night win

When Kansas senior Ryan Robertson stepped to the free-throw line with the score tied and no time remaining, he had the opportunity to clinch a victory in his final game at Allen Fieldhouse.
"You don't get to see a game very often when a guy gets to shoot a free throw to win the game," Robertson said. "For me to be in that situation, especially on Senior Night, is hard to believe."
Robertson sunk the first of three foul shots and gave the Jayhawks their 16th-straight victory on Senior Night as they defeated Oklahoma State 67-66 in overtime last night.
"To end my career here on free throws to win the game, that was special." Robertson said.
Kansas coach Roy Williams said he couldn't have dreamed of a better way for Robertson to end his career at the fieldhouse.
"That young man has faced more challenges and played more roles than anyone," Williams said. "It was so fitting for the game to end this way."
Kansas sophomore Eric Chenowith scored six of his game-

Storybook ending crowns 'Hawks' fieldhouse finale

Endings don't get any sweeter.
Had senior Ryan Robertson been told four years ago that he would hit a free throw with no time on the clock in an overtime game unofficially named Senior Night, he would have laughed and asked who was writing the script.
The drama Robertson and his Jayhawk teammates provided last night's raucous Allen Fieldhouse crowd probably would sell to millions with the right producer, director and actors. And the right title-
how about Senior Night?
Robertson, who started last night's game alongside fellow seniors, T.J. Pugh, Chris Martin and Jelani Janisse and sophomore Eric Chenwith, scored only four points on two of 10 shooting in the first 25 minutes of last night's game. But movies don't sell as well when the hero falls, and Jayhawk fans are not accustomed to sending their seniors away as losers.
So with 2.2 seconds on the clock in

Washington, 'Hawks still have shot at Big 12 title
By Matt James Kansan sportswriter
Women's team drops in AP poll to No.22
With only one week remaining in women's Big 12 Conference play, the race for the regular season title has come down to three.
Texas Tech, Iowa State and Kansas remained the top three teams in the conference standings this week, and the only three not mathematically eliminated from a shot at the conference crown.
League-leading Texas Tech held the No. 11 ranking in this week's Associated Press poll, and moved to 12-2 in conference play after defeating Oklahoma State 73-56 at home last Wednesday and outlasting Nebraska 75-62 in Lincoln on Sunday.
The Lady Raiders were able to hold off a Cornhusker second-half rally after jumping out to a 14-0 lead and overwhelmed Oklahoma State on the strength of conference player of the year candidate Angie Brazil's 30 points and 10 rebounds.
"They (Texas Tech) have good players inside and outside," said Oklahoma St. coach Dick Halterman. "That's the reason they are as good as they are. They execute their offense and do everything else better than the rest of us right now."
Oklahoma State has stumbled in the last half of conference play losing five of its last six and falling to 12-12 overall.
"We're struggling right now to find any points." Halterman said.
The road doesn't get any easier for the struggling Cowgirl offence, which next faces the Big 12's stingiest defense in Kansas. The Jayhawks, who have allowed only 58 points per game and 37 percent
shooting for the season, travel to Stillwater Wednesday.
"I told our team that was probably the lowest point of our season and in 10 short days, our whole season has changed," said Iowa State coach Bill Fennelly.
The Iowa State Cyclones slipped one spot to No. 20 in this week's AP poll but gained sole possession of second place in the Big 12 at 11-3 after ending Kansas' 21-game home winning streak last Tuesday and destroying Kansas State 86-53 at home Saturday. The victory avenged a 70-63 upset win by the Wildcats in Manhattan February 10.
Coach Marian Washington's team, while not eliminated from league title
Kansas also fell one place in the AP poll to No. 22 after the loss to Iowa State and a hard-fought 55-52 win against Oklahoma Saturday. The Jayhawks are now 10-4 in the Big 12 and two full games behind Texas Tech.
contention, will need both the Lady Raiders and Cyclones to lose each of their games this week to win the Big 12 crown.
The likelihood of that is doubtful as both teams play one of their remaining games at home, where they are a combined 23-0 this season.
Tech, Iowa State and Kansas are also the only three teams at this point in the season with a good chance of making the NCAA tournament. Texas, Baylor and Nebraska will each need a strong Big 12 tournament showing to have a realistic shot at future post-season play.
While a league title is most likely out of reach, Kansas' win against Oklahoma did secure its 10th straight 20-win season.
Washington's 500th win also wasn't the only 500 milestone reached during Saturday's senior day game. Sophomores Jaelyn Johnson and Jennifer Jackson each scored their career 500th point.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 23):
Changes are in the works for you this year. A career setback could cause you to revise your plans. Your idea could solve a job-related problem in March. The money looks good in April and May, but in June, a conflict arises. Looks like demands of work and home are contradictory. This dilemma could spur new creativity. You should find another way to market your skills around October. Friends who visit you in November spur you to take action you've been contemplating. By December, you should have found a way to do both.
Aries: Todav is a 7.
There's lots of floating around today but don't take it seriously. How can you tell what the truth is? It will be difficult because not all the facts are in. Continue to gather as much information as you can.
Taurus: Today is a 5.
You like to know where every penny goes, and today that will be a real challenge. There's money coming in from unexpected sources, and money going out for unanticipated costs. You'll need imagination.
Gemini: Today is a 6.
The moon in your sign makes you very powerful, but the sun in Pisces could hurt. Pisceans communicate without speaking. And you, of course, are the sign of verbal communication. Today, if you want to be really wise, listen a lot.
Cancer: Today is a 5.
You may feel like somebody is leaning over your shoulder, watching your every move and taking notes. If you stay focused, you'll do fine. If you let your personal life encroach on company time, there could be a problem.
You naturally rise to the position of the leader in almost any team you're on. That doesn't mean the others always mind you. Don't just tell others what to do. Ask them what they think should be done. Your chances of success will improve.
Virgo: Today is a 4.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Just when you think everything is figured out, somebody will want to change it. You prefer a nice routine. Instead of arguing with how things are, use these conditions to your advantage.
Scorpio: Today is a 5.
You like to weigh things in the balance. You figure out all the reasons for and against, and then the answer becomes obvious. Things could look tilted. You could find yourself unable to decide which way to go. Go with your heart.
Saaittarius: Today is a 5.
Someone is yanking your string today, trying to make you think or make you change. Whatever changes occur now should be beneficial, but pay attention. You don't want to stub your toe while you're dancing in the rain and wind up not only in love but also in a plaster cast.
Be careful with your money today. A misunderstanding or accident could cost more than you expected. A quarrel over money with somebody you love is a distinct possibility, so take care. Count to 10 before you express an opinion, and listen before you talk.
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
Things are not as they are supposed to be, as they used to be, or as you thought they were. It looks like somebody's trying to pull a trick on you. If you're making a deal, make sure you read the fine print.
Aquarius: Today is a 7.
You might be feeling a little lucky, but don't get carried away. It looks like you want to impress someone and take him or her out to a really great dinner that costs more than your rent. If that's an exaggeration, you can figure out what parts of it are useful and discard the rest.
Pisces: Today is a 4.
You could have a really lucky break concerning money today, but something else is going to be a problem. Looks like someone who is near and dear to you will say something that hurts your feelings. If that happens, don't despair. he or she probably didn't mean it.

New volleyball recruits to increase athleticism
SPORTS BRIEFFS AND SCORES
Kansas volleyball received three letters of intent yesterday from Amy Billings, Kyie Thomas and Danielle Geronymo.
Billings is a 5-foot-10 setter from Portage Northern High School in Portage, Mich. Billings was named All-Conference, All-Region and All-State her sophomore and junior years. She is in the middle of her senior season and could receive the same honors this year. In Billings' last two seasons, Portage Northern High School has won more than 120 games
"Amy will really solidify our setting position," Kansas coach Ray Bechard said. "She brings a wealth of experience at both the high school and club levels to the table. Her high school coach is one of the best of the country, and Amy has had the opportunity to play for him both in high school and on his club team."
Thomas is a 6-foot-2 middle blocker from Sutherland, Neb. As a senior, Thomas was named first team Division I All-State and second team Super State.
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.

Bechard said Thomas was an excellent all-around athlete with good potential.
"She has a great combination of size and athleticism, which is critical in our conference," Bechard said.
If you know him, Geronimo is a 6-foot-2 middle /right side hitter at Barton Community College. A native of Sao Paulo, Brazil, Geronimo was named both NJCAA and AVCA All-America in 1998 at Barton County.
"Clearly we are lucky to add a player such as Danielle to the mix at Kansas next season," Beard said, "She brings an unbelievable amount of athleticism and emotion to the team. Where she comes from, volleyball is
Bechard said Geronyo would add athleticism to the team, which would allow the Jayhawks to match up well in the Big 12.

Tyson in isolation cell after throwing TV set
LAS VEGAS — Mike Tyson had been taken off an antidepressant drug at the direction of a jail physician two days before he threw a television set against some bars in a Maryland jail, a source close to the fighter said.

Dungy said he thought the left-handed quarterback, considered by some to lack a big-league throwing arm, would be taken in the first round of the April draft. The Buccaneers select 15th. Will McNown still be around?
"I hope so." Dungy said. "But I wouldn't be surprised if he is not. I'd like to have a chance at him."

high 25 points in overtime and junior Nick Bradford added four points, including two free throws with 16.9 seconds in overtime that gave the Jawhaws a 66-63 lead.
Oklahoma State's Glendon Alexander drained a three-pointer with 2.2 seconds remaining to tie the ballgame at 66-66.
Then Jeff Boschee called a time out at half court with 1.6 seconds left to set up the final shot. Williams called for a play that was intended to find Robertson coming off a double screen on the far side of the court.
"It was one of the few times in coaching when you draw something up and it works," Williams said. "Everybody
executed perfectly. We had two screens set for him on the weak side, and he made a heckuva play."
Chenwith fired the inbound pass to Robertson, and the senior took two bdibles before being fouled on his threepoint attempt by Adrian Peterson.
"My first thought was to try to draw a foul," said Robertson about the final play. "I would much rather be at the free-throw line than shooting a long three-pointer."
Williams said it was clear to him that Robertson was fouled.
After two Oklahoma State free throws to begin the second half, the Jayhawks ran off 11 straight points and seized a 40-33 lead, while the Cowboys suffered through an eight-minute scoring drought.
It was at this point that Cowboys guard Joe Adkins single-handedly pulled them back into the game. He scored 10 of the Cowboys next 12 points, including three three-pointers, to pull Oklahoma State into a 56-56 tie with 88 seconds remaining in regulation.
Boschee missed a runner in the lane on the Jayhawks' next possession, and Desmond Mason's jump shot clanged off the front of the rim, forcing overtime.
Chenwihot's 25 points tied a career-high. Gregory scored 11 points off the bench and Bradford added eight points and a team-high 10 rebounds as the Jayhawks won their third game in a row. Kansas improved to 19-8 overall and 11-4 in the Big 12 Conference.

Seniors say farewell to home court
Continued from page 1A
overtime and the score tied, Robertson prepared to take one more shot at a happy ending. The Jayhawk's Chenowith inbounded the ball from the Oklahoma State baseline to half court where Jeff Bosche received the pass and called time out with 1.6 seconds remaining. After the time out, Chenowith inbounded to Robertson who was just on the Kansas side of half court. Robertson dribbled twice and then jumped toward the basket and launched a three pointer. The shot never came close to the basket because Robertson collided with Cowboy defender Adrian Peterson, who was called for a foul.
The clock read zero when Robertson stepped to the line for three shots. He only needed one.
"Thank you God for not letting me miss that first one and then miss the second one and have to depend on that third one." Robertson said.
When the team came into the locker room after the emotional win and an emotional send off for the seniors, who addressed the crowd, their families and coaching staff in the traditional Senior Night postgame ritual, Pugh said to Robertson, "Who was the writer of that story?"
Robertson said he didn't know but
was happy to be its star.
"Who's like a second-rate actor?" Robertson asked after the game. "Because I don't feel like a Tom Cruise or Ben Affleck because I didn't shoot very well. So I guess I'm like an Adam Sandler."
Kansas coach Roy Williams said Robertson redeemed an otherwise mediocre performance.
"He said to me, 'I knew there had to
be a reason for why I missed all those shots," Williams said.
Robertson was the last senior to address last night's crowd. He took the microphone and after a standing ovation dissipated, asked, "Would you be clapping if I would have missed those three free throws?"
The crowd erupted in further applause.

Softball team takes third in Florida; freshman lead-off batter steals two
By Brandon Stinnett Kansan Sportswriter
The Kansas softball team saved its best for last in the USF/Gladstones tournament Sunday in Tampa, Fla., with a 1-0 victory against previously unbeaten Notre Dame.
The Jayhawks finished the tour nament in third place with a 3-2 record. They picked up wins against Tennessee and Miami (Ohio) on Friday and lost to Georgia Tech and sixth-ranked South Florida Saturday.
The team's only run in the win against Notre Dame was set up by two stolen bases from freshman Shelly Musser.
Musser reached first base in the top of the third inning on an error by the left fielder and then stole both second and third. Shelly's sister, Christi Musser, then singled to left field to bring Shelly Musser home from third to put the Jayhawks (8-3) on top for good.
Shelly Musser, who has recorded 12 stolen bases on 12 attempts this season, has been Kansas' primary offensive weapon through the first 11 games.
Softball
"I just look for someone not paying attention," she said, "And then I run as hard as I can."
Kansas softball coach Tracy Bunge said Musser was playing exactly the way a lead-off batter was supposed to.
"She's a big part of our success so far," Bunge said. "She's an exciting player to watch. You'd never know she was a freshman by watching her play."
"Shelly's been the ideal lead-off hitter," Bunge said. "She gets on base and plays heads up. She has a feel for the game."
Doubts about Sarah Workman's recovery from a torn tendon in the biceps muscle of her right throwing arm can be forgotten. Workman, junior pitcher, continued to
The Jayhawks have struggled offensively so far this season. Bunge said that made Musser's productivity even more important.
pitch well after being named MVP of last weekend's Metrodome Classic. Workman surrendered just one hit and recorded nine strikeouts against Notre Dame. She gave up just one earned run in three games, finishing 2-1 for the tournament.
"I feel good health-wise," Work man said, "Perfect."
"I think I still have a little more to go," she said. "It will come. If I keep getting better every time I pitch, then we do fine."
Workman said she was not completely back to the way she was before the injury.
Bunge said she thought that Workman was pitching better than before the injury.
Kansas will have a week off before traveling to Tuscon, Ariz. March 5-7 for the University of Arizona Invitational.
"We'll be seeing some really tough competition in Arizona," Bunze said.

"I would say more than likely something's going to happen," said Colorado coach Ricardo Patton. "There are too many people lobbying to have it moved."
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Although it's been hugely successful in Kansas City, the Big 12 tournament probably is headed elsewhere — for Texas, or Oklahoma, and maybe even Denver or St. Louis.
Inaugurated in 1977 as the Big Eight postseason tournament, the event has been held every year in Kansas City and always has been one of the most prosperous and well-attended conference tournaments in the country.
When Texas, Texas A&M, Baylor and Texas Tech came together with the Big Eight to form the Big 12 three years ago, however, there was immediate talk from the South teams of rotating the tournament.

Big 12 tourney site debated
The Associated Press

"It seems to me (the Texas schools) have gotten a tremendous amount of advantage for teams joining a league that was established and had a lot of tradition and done very well," said Missouri coach Norm Stewart.
Many coaches from the old Big Eight, noting the traditional lack of basketball interest among most Texas schools, are appalled at the thought of playing the tournament anywhere in Texas.
Like other North coaches, Kansas State coach Tom Asbury sees no reason to rotate the event.
represents a "turf war" between the North and South schools.
Kansas coach Roy Williams does not sense any shift in momentum to move the tournament.
电脑
Nebraska coach Danny Nee agreed.
"We've got a proven product and a proven event in Kansas City," Williams said.
"I think it would not make sense," he said. "The main reason I'd be reluctant to move it is the fact it's been a big success in Kansas City. I'm not sure it would be a success anywhere else."
1 go with the philosophy if it's not broke, don't fix it," he said.
Commentary
Smile: Things aren't all that bad
My car needs a new clutch, the tires are bald, and I feel like I'm taking midterm after midterm without ever really knowing any of the answers. With that in mind, I think it's time to put on a happy face and think about some good things like...
We're not Kansas state.
Homework got you down?
There's always Happy Action Fun Time on ESPN.
We're in college, a time when midterms are still among the biggest causes of stress. To hell with the real world.
■ Whine all you want about the men's basketball team, but an off- year around here still produces 20 wins and play in the NCAA Tournament.
It's been Taco Tuesday all month at Taco John's.
- Listening to coach Roy Williams' radio spot always puts a smile on my face: "Hi, this is Wrau Willyems." You gotta love those accents.
NHL All-Star Sergei Federov recently announced he's donating his 1998-99 salary — all $2 million of it — to a new charity benefiting Detroit-area children.
Even if Eric Chenowith gets pushed around a bit in the paint, there is nobody in the nation with prettier hair. But seriously, Chenowith is having an all-conference caliber season and is perhaps

■ Nick Bradford. The man has as much heart as anybody to play for Kansas since Joras Haeuse.

can use the word "choke." Instead of heartache and soul-searching after Kansas bows out, there should be — after getting over the initial disappointment of losing — excitement and optimism about next year because...
Jeff Boschee and Marlon London still have three years of eligibility and Kenny Gregory has enough ability and time to become one of the best players in the country. And
From what the "experts" say, Roy Williams has compiled one of the best recruiting classes in the nation. Plus...
with two healthy knees and a pair of unstrained ankles, Lester Earl could have a huge year. And Luke Axell will be eligible.
Summer is one day closer than it was yesterday.
Two words: snooze button.
■ On the other side of March, we'll get to see if Major League Baseball can come close to duplicating a great 1998 season.
There's no reason to feel sorry for Paul Pierce anymore. This fall, there was talk of how Pierce probably regretted entering the NBA draft a year early, since he was picked lower than expected and the lockout kept the pros out of action while the kids played. But he has to be happy with his decision now. While Kansas is unranked, Pierce is making a good case for Rookie of the Year honors for the up-and-coming Boston Celtics.
Raef LaFrentz also is having a pretty good year and even is pulling a few three-pointers.
March is just around the corner. With the possible exception of the winter holidays, there is no better time of year than the month with spring break and the NCAA Tournament.
See you in March.

Rodman to sign with Lakers
The Associated Press
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Seven-time NBA rebounding champion Dennis Rodman said yesterday that he planned to sign with the Los Angeles Lakers.
"There's a lot of things that have to occur before I even step on the floor with the Lakers," the former Chicago Bulls' player said during a news conference.
Rodman, under skeptical questioning, stated several minutes later that he would sign.
"I'm going to sign a contract tonight," he said, adding that he hoped it would be a two or three-year pact. He said he might play when the Lakers face the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday.
Representatives of the Lakers
were not present at the news conference. Rodman attributed that to the fact that the team was playing out of town.
"We've been saying for the past couple of weeks that we would like to have Dennis Rodman on our team," general manager M i t c h K u p c h a k said in a statement. "Now that he b a s s
PETER LUKAS
Rodman: Said he was ready to play again.
announced his desire and intention to play for us, we hope to
sign a deal and see him in a Lakers' uniform sometime very soon."
Rodman said he was in good shape and would be reliable, playing up to 35 minutes a game.
"You can count on me. You can count on me going to practice," Rodman said.
He insisted he absolutely wanted to play again.
The Lakers were scheduled to play Denver tonight, but Rodman said he didn't think he needed to travel there.
"I think there's enough distraction as it is." he said.
Whether Rodman would go to the Lakers has been in the news on almost a daily basis since a newspaper report Feb. 13 that quoted sources close to Rodman as saying he had decided to play for the Lakers.
Royals' pitchers Appier, Pichardo recover from last season's injuries
The Associated Press
HAINES CITY, Fla. — Kevin Appier, the ace of the Kansas City pitching staff until a shoulder surgery caused him to miss almost all of last season, said he felt great after throwing for eight minutes Sunday.
Royals pitchers and catchers went through their first workouts of the spring, and Hipolito Pichardo also was pleased with his progress. Although he didn't undergo surgery, he missed the rest of the season after leaving a game with an aching elbow on Aug. 20.
Appier spent last season going through rehabilitation after undergoing surgery late in spring training. He worked his way through every classification in the minor-league system, finally pitching three games
in the major leagues.
Appier, Pichardo and the other pitchers pitched through a series of twine targets devised by groundskeeper George Toma.
There are 37 pitchers on the 68-player spring roster, but manager Tony Muser focused primarily on Pincharo and Appler, whose ability to bounce back from injury will be key to the team's hopes.
"Hipo threw very well today, and Ape was OK," Muser said. "I think he got a little fatigued toward the end."
Muser started everybody out with a shuttle run, a 40-yard dash back and forth three times.
The pitchers did more than run and throw. Because of interleague play requiring pitchers to bat against National League teams, they were ushered into batting cages for
hunting practice.
"We were a little concerned when Austin went into the cage, never having had a bat in his hand before," Muser said. "But the staff was in there to make sure they didn't break any fingers and thumbs.
Nobody got hurt."
The Royals play their first spring game on March 5, against the Cleveland Indians in Winter Haven, then meet the New York Yankees in Haines City.

Senate to review holdover bill
By Nadia Mustafa Kansan staff writer
Student Senate committees will consider a bill tonight for the third consecutive year that would eliminate the position of holdover senator.
At the end of each year, Senate elects three holdover senators for the next year to provide the new Senate with historical knowledge of events and issues that Senate deals with each year.
"We always have a good portion of senators
Holly Krebs, holdover senator and the bill's co-sponsor, said that holdover senators were not necessary because almost one-third of Senate is composed of senators who had served before.
having historical knowledge," she said. "Holdover senators just feed the self-perpetuating nature of Senate because it tries to do exactly what it has done in the past. Precedent is not always the best thing to pay attention to. It doesn't allow for a revitalization of Senate."
Krebs said the position was undemocratic and unrepresentative because holderover senators were not popularly elected and did not
Krebs said she accepted the position of hold over senator because it already existed and she wanted to be involved in Senate. She did not agree, however, with the fundamental principle of the position. She also said that she would have been involved with Senate through other means if she had not been elected holdover senator.
represent any identifiable constituency.
"There's a feeling that holdover senators copped out of the campaign part of Senate, and we're not as accountable that way," she said. "It really comes down to a way for people who did not get elected to get into Senate. Many people who support the positon are just looking out for themselves."
If University Affairs and Student Rights committees pass the bill, Senate will consider it next Wednesday. The position would not be eliminated until after the April elections.
(USPS 650-640)
Finance and University Affairs committees will review a bill to give the elections commission $4,320 to operate the polling sites at Grace Sellards Pearson Hall, Gentrude Sellards Pearson-Corbin Hall and Ekdahl Dining Commons.
The funds would pay for poll workers' fees, ballots and magnetic strip reader rental to prevent voter fraud. This is the first year KUID card readers will be used during Senate elections.
Jennifer Watkins, elections commission chairwoman, said the commission was hoping that the administration would pay for the readers next year as part of its Smartcard initiative.
Multicultural and Finance committees also will consider a bill to pay the $1,000 speaker fee for the Venerable Palden Gyatso, a Tibetan monk, sponsored by Students for a Free Tibet. Gyatso, who lives in exile in India, will

Students dunk their way to head of class
Course makes dreams come true for would-be basketball stars
By Derek Prater
Special to the Kansan
It's a dream for every young basketball fan — to one day fly through the air and dunk like Mike.
For the past four years, Lockwood has offered spring sessions of Jump Training, a class he developed that focuses on vertical leaning and explosiveness.
Bob Lockwood, facility director for health, sport and exercise sciences at the University of Kansas, is working to help students grasp that dream and reach their fitness goals.
Not surprisingly, Lockwood said most students at the basketball-crazy University took the class for basketball-related goals.
"In student terms, do you play above the rim?" Lockwood said. "Some day you want to dunk a basketball, and that's a real possibility for a girl 5-foot-10 and up."
However, the class is not for everyone. Lockwood said.
The class, HSES 598, is open to all University students, and Lockwood has had a variety of students take the class. He said at least 28 students were enrolled this semester.
The seven-week program consists of three high-intensity hour-and-a-half workouts each week that push students to extreme levels.
"It was exhausting," said Rob Dyson, Olathe senior, who took the class two years ago. "Everyone has heard stories of how people throw up in that class."
Thad Crane, a Hutchinson junior enrolled in the class, called it the most intense workout he had ever had.
Lockwood said the intense nature of the workouts created a team atmosphere within the class. Students push each other to reach their goals.
"We're all in it together." Crane said. "We help each other get through."
The regimen that Lockwood developed consists of exercises aimed at four areas:
speed, strength, flexibility and polymetrics, which emphasize speed and a full range of movement.
Workouts include jumping exercises and sprints and involve only the use of body weight as opposed to weight-training.
Lockwood said the initial inspiration for the class was his desire to do a research-based program that would look at muscle biopsies. He knew that students were interested in improving their vertical leaps, and the program would provide an opportunity to evaluate muscle fiber. Lockwood did the research program the first semester the class was held but no longer does it.
Lockwood said he also had personal interest in jump training from his background in volleyball and gymnastics. Additional inspiration came from his son, who was his most successful protege. His son was able to dunk with two hands by the end of his high school basketball career.
Not every student can expect to be able to dunk after completing the program, Lockwood said. However, students often see dramatic improvements in explosiveness and leaping ability after a recovery period of several weeks.
Lockwood said students had improved as much as seven inches in straight power jumps with no take-off approach and as much as 13 inches for jumps with an approach.
The bottom line for some students, however, starts at the rim. Crane was hesitant to say that he expected to be able to dunk.
He said students also had been pleased with the way the workouts sculpted their lower bodies.
"You're looking at a real streamlined look from the waist down," Lockwood said. "A lean, sleek type athlete."
"That's my goal." Crane said. "I'll be on the rim at least."

Students to construct house for low-income family
By Heather Woodward
Kansas staff writer
Graduate students in the School of Architecture and Urban Design will spend most of their time during the next couple months building a house for a low-income family.
Kanson staff writer
Today a graduate architecture studio class, which has 13 students, will begin building a two-story house at 1144 Pennsylvania St. in conjunction with the City of Lawrence.
The class members already designed the house, but building the house will complete their final project toward completing their
Daniel Rockhill, professor of architecture and urban design, said only the first floor of the house would be completely handicapped-accessible.
"There will be reduced cabinetry in the kitchen so that someone in a wheelchair could get to the sink without a cabinet in the way," Rockhill said. "In the bathroom, there will be grab bars by the seat, and the bathroom is big enough that someone in a wheelchair could turn completely around without any difficulty."
graduate degree in architecture. This is the first house that was designed to be semi-handicapped accessible.
- Edited by Sarah Hale
The class will build the three-bedroom, two-bathroom house with $92,000 of the city's money. The lot cost about $20,000 and the demolition of the house that sits on the lot now, which has been vacant for 24 years, will cost about $3,000. The remainder of the money will go toward construction costs.
This is the second year the architecture class has done the project with the city.
The Lawrence City Commission approved the project last night.
Lynn Goodell, director of the department of housing and neighborhood development, said part of the agreement was to provide affordable housing for a low-
income family. He estimated that the house would sell for about $75,000.
The 13 students are expected to graduate in May, but Rockhill said he doubted the project would be finished by then. All of the students have agreed to continue working until the home is completed, and the city has set July 31 as a final deadline.
"I think it's a good thing because the only way for the city to provide housing to low-income families is to subsidize somebody somehow." Goodell said. "The City of Lawrence has several programs where it supplements the educational process at KU. This way, we're helping to produce architects."
Miranda Grieder, Austin, Texas, graduate student, said she was excited about the project.
Rockhill said the students would work 12-hour days at least six days each week to build the house.
"I think the best thing about it is not only getting the experience but being able to help other people,"
Grieder said. "People who qualify for low-income housing will get a much better product because we donate the labor, and we research the materials and the construction. We put a lot of thought into how the house all comes together."
Texas man found guilty in dragging death case
The Associated Press
JASPER, Texas — A white supremacist was convicted of capital murder yesterday for chaining a black man to a pickup truck and dragging him to his death in one of the nation's grisliest hate crimes since the civil rights battles.
Jurors deliberated less than 2 1/2 hours before returning their verdict against John William King, who now faces either life in prison or execution. The panel of 11 Caucasians and one African American began the separate punishment phase yesterday afternoon.
King appeared to have no reaction when the verdict was read.
Sheriff Billy Rowles gave a thumbs-up to a relative of victim James Bryd Jr. Several Byrd family members broke into tears as did King's father, Ronald.
Courtroom spectators applauded the verdict until State District Judge Joe Bob Golden admonished them.
His son, Ross Byrd had a similar reaction.
"We win and yet we still lose because we don't have him back," said Mary Verrett, Byrd's sister, outside the courtroom.
King: Could face execution for the June murder.
Byrd's daughter, Renee Mullins, dabbed her eyes and nose with a tissue as she called the verdict "a breath of freshair."
"All I know is that there's one down and two to go," he said.
King, a 24-year-old laborer, was the first of three white men to be tried in the June 7 slaying. The body of the 49-year-old Byrd was torn in two — a head and right arm severed from his torso — when he was pulled nearly three miles while tied by his ankles with a 24 1/2-foot logging chain.
In closing arguments today, prosecutor Pat Hardy outlined the evidence against King, likening Byrd's attackers to "three robedriders coming straight out of hell."
"After they dragged that poor man and tore his body to pieces, they dropped it right in front a church and a cemetery to show their defiance to God, to show their defiance of Christianity and everything most people in this county stand for," Hardy said.
Prosecutors argued Byrd was conscious, suffering horribly as he vainly tried to save himself during the dragging.
To make King eligible for the death penalty, prosecutors had to show Byrd's murder happened in conjunction with another crime and argue the abduction of Byrd amounted to kidnapping.
In his closing, defense attorney Brack Jones concentrated on the kidnapping argument.
Jones said he thought the tying of Byrd's feet and the dragging was the method of death and not intentional kidhapping.
A pathologist testified Monday that Byrd was dragged alive and in excruciating pain along the bumpy county road. When the pickup swerved into a left-hand curve, Byrd's chained body swung to the right, where he was beheaded by a concrete culvert.
was sentenced.
An ex-convict with dreams of starting his own racist group, King had been waiting for an opportunity to make a name for himself and his fledgling white supremacy group, the Texas Rebel Soldiers, prosecutors said.
While in prison, King told one inmate he wanted to "take a black out" to prove himself as a white supremacist. He covered himself in racist tattoos, his defense attorneys contended, to prevent attacks from the mostly black population at Beto.
In a November letter to The Dallas Morning News, Kadmined he had been riding in the truck with Brewer and the other co-defendant, Shawn Berry, on June 7 when they offered a ride to Byrd.
A letter recovered by police from King to codefendant Lawrence Russell Brewer revealed that blood-stained clothing, missed by police, was still in his apartment. DNA tests showed that the blood was Byrd's. Until that letter, there were no witnesses to place King in the truck at the same time as Byrd.

Thieves burglarize car house during game
While a Lawrence couple attended Monday's Kansas basketball game at Allen Fieldhouse, thieves broke into their car and found the keys to their house, which they also broke into, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police department.
The rear window of the couple's 1997 Saturn was broken, and the woman's purse and cellular phone were stolen between 7:30 and 10 p.m. in the 1600 block of Mississippi Street, Wheeler said.
The couple reported the auto burglary at 11:33 p.m.
They arrived home to discover that the thieves had located their house using information from the woman's wallet and that the thieves had entered the house using the woman's keys, Wheeler said.
The couple called police again to report that their VCR, stereo and $300 in cash had been stolen from their residence. There are no suspects in the crimes, Wheeler said.
Student runs on court stops basketball game
An 18-year-old student interrupted the game when he ran on the Allen Fieldhouse court carrying a sign that said "Good Luck Seniors" and "Congratulations Roy on 300."
He was arrested for disorder conduct at 9:46 p.m. in the fieldhouse, said Sgt. Troy Mailen of the KU Public Safety Office said.
The man told police his actions were a response to his friends' insistence that he would never make it to the floor during a Kansas basketball game, Mailed said.
Mailen said the man was cooperative after his arrest and was carrying a letter of apology addressed to Coach Roy Williams.
The student was released from jail at 12:14 a.m. yesterday on $100 bond.
Sweepstakes finalist says he is being followed
At 1:43 p.m. Monday, a man in the Kansas Union who claimed to be a finalist in a $10 million sweepstakes told police that people were following him, the KU Public Safety Office said.
The man said that a week ago he had received a letter from American Family Publishers informing him that he was a finalist in the contest, police said.
Since that time, he said he had observed public officials following him wherever he went, police said. The man, however, did not report to police whether the public officials were tax collectors.

Committee, described the bill before the House as the responsible way to finance a highway plan.
Transportation proposal backed by Republicans
TOPEKA — In the first votes during debate yesterday, the House stuck with a transportation plan crafted by Republican leaders that would require neither increasing taxes nor issuing bonds to finance it.
The bill before the House would raise $2.1 billion in new revenues during eight years to help finance highway, airport, railroad and public bus system improvements. Supporters expect the state to have enough money from collections of existing taxes that grow with the economy.

Tobacco tactics blasted by activists and senator
TOPEKA — Passing out free samples of cigarettes and other tobacco products at fairs, rodeos and other events would be outlawed in Kansas according to a bill considered vesteyard by a Senate committee.
Rep. Gary Hayziett, R-Lakin, chairman of the House Transportation
Tobacco industry lobbyists told the Federal and State Affairs Committee that state law already prohibited passing out samples to anyone younger than 18, and an outright ban would interfere with marketing to adults.
Sen. Donald Biggs, D-Leavenworth, told the committee, which took no action on the bill, "it's totally inconsistent to have a public policy permitting free samples of tobacco products."
Also urging passage was Jerry Scott, a former Salina fire marshal and member of Tobacco Free Kansas Coalition. During his testimony, he put a plastic bag filled with dozens of smokeless tobacco cans on the committee table, saying they were free samples given to fire stations.
Terri Roberts, Kansas State Nurses Association executive director; also called for banning tobacco samples. She said 43 states restricted distribution of tobacco samples in some form, and Nebraska had banned it outright.

Congressional leaders confer with president
WASHINGTON — President Clinton yesterday met with the congressional leaders of both parties for the first time in 19 months. All sides promised to work together despite the partisan bitterness generated by the impeachment battle.
"We all took an oath, and I think we intend to follow it," Clinton said, when asked by reporters if they could set aside differences. "We owe it to the American people, and I'm looking forward to it."
House Speaker Dennis Hastert joined Clinton in the Oval Office two months after voting to impeach him.
Creating bipartisan commissions to tackle such politically volatile issues as Social Security, tax reform and missile defense was one idea tossed around, Hastert said.
Also present at the meeting with House Minority Leader Dick Gephardt, Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle and White House chief of staff John Podesta were House Majority Leader Dick Armye and Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott — both of whom also武 to impeach or convict the president on charges of perjury and obstruction of justice.
After the meeting, Lott refused reporters' bait to repeat his post-impeachment complaint that the president was untrustworthy.
A KU visitor's cellular phone was stolen between 1 and 1:30 p.m. Monday in Malot Hall, the KU Public Safety Office said. The phone was valued at $150.

A KU visitor's car slid through an intersection and hit a KU student's car at 10:21 a.m. Monday at Chelsea Place and West 15th Street, the KU Public Safety Office said. Neither car was drivable after the accident.
A KU student's 1998 Suzuki motorcycle was damaged between 8 p.m. Saturday and 2 p.m. Sunday in lot 110, near the Jayhawker Towers, the KU Public Safety Office said. Damage to the motorcycle was estimated at $600.
A window in the sixth floor lobby of Olivier Hall was damaged at 2.55 a.m. Sunday, the KU Public Safety Office said. The window was valued at $300.

Krebs, the bill's sponsor, said Gyatso had extensive, first-hand knowledge about the Tibetan situation.
"This is such a huge human rights and religious freedom issue that everyone should be informed about when something like this is allowed to happen," she said.
Erik Goodman, Students for a Free Tibet president and Creek, Ohio, junior, said students should be aware of international issues such as the situation in Tibet.
"As the U.S. becomes more involved with China, it's important for us to know what's going on over there and what we're getting into," he said.
Finance and University Affairs committees will see a bill that would fund a student film to be produced by KU Filmworks during spring break and May.
The bill would provide $2,308 for equipment rental, sets, costumes and film for an $18,000 25-minute science fiction film, which the group will submit to film festivals around the United States.
Allan Holt, KU Filmworks president and Overland Park senior, said the funds would allow the group to work with better equipment.
"The film will probably be of higher production value than anything that has ever been done at KU," he said. "It's a really ambitious project. KU has a huge amount of talent, but it's pretty much unknown."
The committees also will consider a bill to provide $418 for the International Association of Students in Business and Economics' regional conference March 12 through March 14 and a bill to give $428 to Working Against Violence Everywhere, a new student organization.
Graduate, Multicultural and University Affairs committees will meet at 6 p.m. at Alcove D, Governors Room and Malot Roft. Finance and Student Rights committees will meet at 6:30 p.m. at English and Walnut Rooms.

Brazilian organization to present cultural event
By Dan Curry Kansan staff write
Maru Gras may have passed, but the Brazilian Carapaval is just warming up.
In honor of Brazilian Week, which begins today and lasts through Saturday, the KU Brazil-Portugal Organization has planned a variety of events to celebrate Brazilian culture.
The highlight of the week, the Brazilian Carnaval, will be held Saturday night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., and will feature Brazilian food and drinks. A band from Chicago will play Brazilian music throughout the evening, said Diana Victor, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, senior.
"There is this very famous Brazilian drink with smashed limes, sugar and vodka Caipirinha," she said. "We're going to teach the bartenders at the Granada to make them."
The musical group,
the Chicago Samba School Band, will play traditional and popular Brazilian music,
said Mariana
BRAZILIAN WEEK
Today: Media panel to discuss Globe, a large Brazilian media corporation, at 6 p.m. in 100 Stauffer-Flint Hall.
Tomorrow: A panel discussing soccer in Brazil at 6 p.m. at the English Room in the Kansas Union.
Friday: Brazilian music festival at 8 p.m. at the Alderson Auditorium in the Kansas Union.
Friday: Traditional Brazilian foods during lunchtime at the Kansas Union cafeteria.
Paiva. Brazil-Portugal Organization president.
Saturday: Brazilian Carnaval at 8 p.m. at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St.
She said that Carnaval was an essential part of Brazilian culture.
"Brazil is like a party country," Palva said. "We are famous for that. So Carnavall time is a big deal."
The KU Brazil-Portugal Organization members plan to do more than party.
"We don't want to stick to only a party." Victor said.
"We wanted to diversify a little. Since we're organizing a whole week of events, we don't want people to only go and have fun. We want people to learn."
The first cultural event of the week will be a panel discussion about media mogul Roberto Marinho, owner of Globo, a Brazil-based network, at 6 p.m. in 100 Stauffer-Flint Hall
Linda Davis, associate professor of journalism, who will be a member of the panel, said Globo fascinating.
"The way Globo got so powerful was by working very closely with the government in the early days," Davis said. "It became an interesting independent voice, championing free elections in Brazil."
A panel discussing soccer in Brazil will be held at pm tomorrow at the English Room in the Kansas Union.
Panel member Antonio Simoes, associate professor of Spanish and Portuguese, played soccer in Brazil growing up.
"I'll show the video and see how soccer relates to the society," Simoes said. "It is a big deal. It can affect even business."
Traditional Brazilian foods such as feijão and arroz will be served at lunch Friday at the Union cafeteria.

City devises plan to finance downtown garage
The Lawrence City Commission took initial steps at last night's meeting to finance a downtown parking garage.
Kanson staff writer
The commission voted to draft an ordinance declaring the 900 block of New Hampshire Street — where the 616-space garage will be built — a redevelopment district. By establishing the block as a redevelopment district, the city can use tax increment financing to pay for the project. A redevelopment district is an area that is not yet deteriorated but may become blighted in the future.
"It's not a blighted area yet," said Mayor Marty Kennedy. "But it's very close to it. Once the redevelopment district is established, we can go through with the formation of the tax increment financing plan."
The project will be paid for through increased sales and property tax revenue produced by the development of retail and office space across the street from the parking garage.
The project will cost $17.8 million.
Private investment firm 9-10 L.C. will provide $8.1 million and the rest will be paid for with city bonds.
"A downtown developer doesn't have to pay for additional street-level parking because that is paid for by the public parking system, which comes from the parking meters and $2 fines," said Dave Corliss, director of legal services for Lawrence.
Corliss said that the city had realized that a multi-level parking garage was needed downtown and that the city had been trying to find a way to pay for it.
"A parking garage is expensive, about $10,000 a space." Corliss said. "25 cents in the meter or a $2 fine isn't going to pay for it. In order to use the special powers of grabbing this extra revenue, the development needs to be in an area that is poorly developed."
Lawrence resident Larry Kipp said at the meeting that he was concerned about the amount of public investment in the project. The Downtown 2000 project, which includes the parking garage, also includes building retail and office space on the east side of the block.
"I'm not sure the amount of retail that's being built there will generate enough revenue or not." Kipp said. "The project is exceptional in terms of the high percent of city funding, and it's exceptional in terms of the high risk."
"We want to ensure that this new area will benefit downtown and maintain its viability," Kennedy said.
Kennedy said that creating the area as a redevelopment district would protect it against future deterioration.
Al Hack, a representative of the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, said the chamber had unanimously voted in favor of the project and its public financing plan.
"The more that we had a chance to look at this project, the more we realized that this is a win-win situation for everyone involved," Hack said.

City Commission approves salary increase for members
Last night the Lawrence City Commission approved an ordinance that would increase commissioners' salaries to $9,000 per year and the mayor's salary to $10,000 per year.
The ordinance, read for the first time last week, would kick in after the new commission is elected this spring.
The mayor and the commissioners' salaries have been $6,000 for the past six or seven years. Mayor Marty Kennedy said.
The three commissioners not running for re-election this spring, Bonnie Augustine, Bob Moody and John Nalbandian, voted for the increase in salary, Kennedy voted against the
raise and Commissioner Erv Hodges abstained.
Kennedy's and Hodges' terms as mayor and commissioner will continue through next year.
"The city commission changes every two years," Kennedy said. "There haven't been any former commissioners that have taken this kind of action," he said. "I want to establish now that I will do the best job I can do for the city whether its $6,000 or $10,000. It's more of a civic and public duty."

Computer users can browse, test KU Web site prototype page
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
While the Web site, www.ukans.edu, is undergoing extensive revisions that will make navigation easier and downloading faster, users can link to a prototype page.
tor for Academic Computing Services.
Computer users who visit the KU Web site can sneak a peek at the University's new home page before it officially replaces the old page.
Jerry Niebaum, assistant vice chancellor and director for Academic Computing Services, said he hoped the new page would replace the current one before the end of the school year.
The page has averaged about 350 hits a day since it became active, and Loats said she had received about 100 completed surveys.
Visitors to the prototype page are invited to view the site and complete a survey, which is sent to the page's administrator. The link has been active since Feb. 17, said Julie Loats, Web administra-
She said she had planned to create a new KU Web site since she arrived at the University two years ago. She said she had heard some students complain about the site. They thought it loaded too slowly and that it was too complicated to navigate.
Loats said the new page would replace the home page and KUfacts section, which is the main page for the Lawrence campus. She said that the Web site's address, or URL, would remain the same and that the new site would not cost students an increase in dial-in account fees.
Loats said making the Web site easier to navigate was the main focus for the prototype page.
A KU A to Z link will contain an alphabetical listing of all departments, organizations and offices affiliated with the University. The link also will offer University departments by multiple names.
"Someone who moved to Taiwan might want to find the Regents Center," she said. "They wouldn't know that the name has chaned."
Loats said the 100 survey results reported that the two most popular changes were the KU A to Z listing and the student and faculty member e-mail directory.
Other changes included fewer and smaller images so that the page would download more quickly for users with slow Internet connections.
The image on the main page also will be changed periodically to reflect different seasons and KU activities. For example,
in the fall, there might be images of the campus or of Kansas football, while images of commencement or Kansas basketball could appear in the spring. The photo on the main page also will change each time the user reloads the page.
Loats said the page still would be accessible for people using text-based browsers such as Lynx, which was developed at the University.
"Lynx has such a rich tradition at KU," she said. "We didn't want to lose that."
Loats also said she didn't want to name a definite deadline for the Web site's completion. However, she would like to see the old page replaced within six months.
Once the prototype page is finished, it must be approved by the KUfacts advisory committee that will make a written recommendation to the Office of the Provost.

Student support shouldn't falter during advisory committee's pitch
KU students expressed strong support for bike lanes in Lawrence at a public forum Feb. 16. Clay Comfort, chair of the City Commission's bicycle advisory committee, said the healthy showing was encouraging for bike lane proponents.
The students who attended the meeting and voiced their support deserve congratulations — but not yet.
Because the Feb. 16 meeting was the last forum for public input before the matter heads to the City Commission, supporters of the issue could be tempted to sit back and relax now.
Doing so could be costly.
The city has conducted a study of 11 streets to see where bike lanes are most necessary. There are sections of several streets on the list that border the KU campus: Naismith Drive, Tennessee, Kentucky, Louisiana and 19th
Bike-lane study won't go before city commission until after April elections.
streets. Based on the results of the study and input from the public, the bicycle advisory committee now will form recommendations.
Although the city commission was warming to the idea of bike lanes, the bicycle advisory committee will not present its recommendations until April — after the elections replace three of the five commissioners.
How the new commission will receive the proposal is anybody's guess, making a strong showing of support by the KU student body critical.
Support from students during all
phases of the project is vital, Clay Comfort said. KU students are a major portion of bicyclists within the Lawrence community and should be concerned about where the proposal leads.
But the issue should not concern only those students who ride bikes. Lawrence has a history of accidents with bicycles and motor vehicles, including an accident that killed a bicyclist in September 1997. The difference between having bike lanes and not having them could be the difference between life and death for a student on this campus. Bike lanes are not just a luxury but rather a necessity because of numerous bicyclists on campus and in the community.
KU students already know this. Now they must continue to show their support for and commitment to bike lanes in Lawrence.

Concealed weapons hinder peaceful society
This is a response to Nathan Wilke's letter in Thursday's University Daily Kansan. As an avid hunter, I am aware of the increase in laws and restrictions pertaining to gun ownership. I have never felt that these laws were designed to suppress my Second Amendment right to own a firearm.
I am against passing any legislation giving citizens the privilege to carry concealed weapons. My reasons include the increase in "road rage" crimes, accidental deaths because of misjudgments, and likelihood of increased accidental deaths in the hands of untrained gun owners.
I feel that many individuals lack the education and patience to own firearms designed to take away a
human's life. I was raised to respect firearms and be cautious when using firearms. It is incorrect to assume that everyone will treat their firearm in the same manner. I already feel safe that I do not need a firearm at my side to function as a free citizen of the United States.

preference." That is what Andrew Marino did in his Feb. 15 column published in The University Daily Kansan.
Marino complains about "the inordinate amount of whining coming from the Pacific coast" where, through Proposition 209, the citizens of California forced the University of California, Berkeley to stop granting "preferential treatment on the basis of race in its admissions process." Because the citizens of Cali

forma made the decision by vote, Marino implies, the decision is right, and we cry babies should stop whining.
But I refuse to stop whining because the lack of historical perspective in our political discourse disturbs me. "Racial preference" is what we call the effort to affirm those members of our society who, even though they have helped build this country, have been practically invisible.
When, in 1776, the "Declaration of Independence" stated that "all men were created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights," this certainly did not include Blacks. This was racial preference, literally, but who were the Blacks to complain about it? After all, every Black was worth only three-fifths of a Caucasian.
In 1789, when the Constitution stated, "We the people of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice," it certainly did not mean "We, the Blacks also," and justice was not for us.
When, in 1791, the First Amendment articulated "the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances," the right was not for us Blacks and certainly not for our grievances.
The 13th Amendment in 1865 abolished slavery. In 1868, the 14th Amendment gave us Blacks the right to be citizens of the United States, and the 15th Amendment gave us the right to vote in 1870. But did we actually vote? And what about education? Were not all these truths supposed to be self-evident since 1776? And are we crybables because we point out injustices?
We tend to forget that not so long ago, it was illegal to educate Blacks, and when Blacks finally could be educated, it was illegal for them to share schools with their Caucasian countrymen.
The racial discrimination laws that kept us separate and unequal were laws of this land, and they have seriously wounded our national soul. Unless you blind yourself to the social reality,
you know that the playing field in the United States is not level. We cannot move forward and "form a more perfect Union," now that all of us finally are people of the United States, unless we all are imbued with this common historical legacy. Scoring high on a multiple-choice U.S. history test won't do it.
What would do it then? How can we go from where we have been and where we are now to where we should be?
First, we have to observe the historical perspective. Whenever I study U.S. history, I actually am ashamed and disgusted. I wonder how the people who inhabited the land of the free and the home of the brave could be so selfish and mean. And let's not fool ourselves. This selfish and mean attitude has not necessarily disappeared. Borrow my skin, and you'll find out.
Second, we have to acknowledge that the situation we have inherited is very complex. Sustained racial prejudice and discrimination do create a mess in any society. Caucasians in the United States still are the majority, and the majority rule, especially if insensitive to the problems of the minorities, may be legal, but not necessarily right, ethical or wise.
Third, let us be motivated by love and compassion. The problems of the under representation of minorities in education and key positions in our society are not necessarily the problems of minorities alone; it is the problem of us all. Insisting on keeping the competitive advantage our background has given us may be the best for us as isolated individuals, but not necessarily the best for us as a society.
Moreover, Marino's assertion that "the SAT is an objective test that tends to predict student performance in college better than subjective measures like grades, interviews or recommendations," is naive. Multiple-choice exams are appealing for test makers and teachers because these tests can be graded by machines and thus save time.
However, as a teacher, if all I did were to give SAT-like tests to my students, I wonder what kind of people I would be helping to educate. The tests of real life in a multicultural society such as ours are not necessarily the objective multiple-choice type. Things are much more complex than that.
Finally, should we rejoice that "the number of students who choose not to indicate their ethnicity rose 300 percent from the year before?" Marino sees this as "good news in a society aspiring to colorblindness." I see it as a dangerous blindness to color when, in our society, color, race and ethnicity still matter, and Marino himself proves this when he complains about the "preférential treatment on the basis of race" given to minority students.
Until, we eliminate color in our hearts, not just on paper, no litany of statistics should beguile us.

Charlie Brown and friends model bad relationships
Anyone who has lived in a civilized country, and by civilized country I stretch that term to its fullest extent by including nations such as France, has
by including nations suc spent most of his or her
spent most of his or her life bombarded by products from Charles Schultz's *Peanuts*. This comic strip's characters have been made into every possible type of merchandise. *Peanuts* products range from the most reasonable, such as the Charlie Brown Pez dispenser, to the most obscure, such as the Lucy Home Pregnancy Test. (Don't let that surprise pregnancy shock you as someone pulling the football away before you can kick it shocks you)

Nick Bartkoski opinion@ kansan.com
The other day, I found a *Peanuts* item that made me ill. A friend and I were rooting through the half-price Valentine's candy and there I saw *Peanuts* Valentines.
I'm sure most people wouldn't feel the same righteous rage that I did, but I see the strip itself as an ongoing textbook on messed-up relationships.
Look at Lucy and Schroeder or Sally and Linus. I mention both of these couples in the same breath because they're essentially the same relationship. Both relationships include women lusting after men that avoid the relationship issue. Schroeder hides behind his arts background, while Linus hides behind his blanket and his Peter Pan complex.
I can't really defend Lucy, because she is the quintessential gold-digger. She lusts after Schroeder only because of what he could provide for her.
Sally, at least, comes closer to feelings of legitimate romance. She loves an older man, yet sees his conflicting self. He is both the most thoughtful of the group and the most unwilling to grow up, as demonstrated by his refusal to give up his blanket or to stop believing in the Great Pumpkin.
Sally acknowledges her limited ability to appease the adult side of Linus. She encourages him to cling to childhood. Calling him her Sweet Baboo, Sally attempts to communicate with his childishness. Still, Sally refuses
The little red-haired girl's presence resonates throughout the strip, even on days when she's not in it. When Chuck's trying to win a ball game, he's trying to win it for her. When he's seeking acceptance from the group, he's really only seeking acceptance from her. His love of her wakes him up in the morning and lulls him to sleep at night.
The problem is that he admires from afar. Throw away, it's Your First Kiss, Charlie Brown, where he actually interacts with her. Charlie Brown cannot bring himself to make his move. He makes well-laid plans, but ultimately he's too nervous to carry them out. He's happy just to love her from a distance, undiscovered, because to tell her would be too dangerous. It could open him up to a life-destrucing hurt.
Is Charlie Brown's love destructive? Yes, but it's a love I can totally support. There's a magic in admiring from afar. The distance can be within a classroom, or the walk from Fraser Hall to Lindley Hall, or across national borders. The thought of that special person possibly reciprocating your feelings can move mountains. It's a safe feeling, too. Admiring from afar protects you from rejection, but it limits you from truly living.
Snoopy's life also exemplifies horrific relationships. For the most part, Snoopy enjoys his time as an unattached dog of leisure. But when he slips into the role of World War I flying ace, he falls for any pair of eyes staring at him through his mug of root beer. This repression in civilian life and acting out in times of war cannot be healthy, especially at his age. After all, one human year does equal seven dog years.
Still, just because I have as messed-up relationships as the *Peanuts* characters doesn't mean I want something such as "I love you, but I'll be darned if I'll tell you" on any Valentines I send out.
And how can one discuss messed-up relationships in *Peanuts* without discussing Charlie Brown's relationship with the little red-haired girl? In fact, I find it hard to discuss the strip at all without mentioning it.
to see that until Linus grows up, he never will appreciate what he has in her. This self-destructive love is not likely to end well.

Week spotlights eating disorders
By T.J. Johnson
Kansan staff writer
Because this week is National Eating Disorder Awareness week, the staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center would like students to become more informed about the severity and prevalence of eating disorders such as anorexia and bulimia.
Ann Chapman, a registered dietitian at Watkins, said eating disorders were a particular problem among college-age women. Chapman said it was estimated that about 15 percent of college women had some type of eating disorder.
"There is a lot of pressure on women to fit into a particular mold in order to be considered attractive, and I think that pressure is most intense on college campuses," Chauman said.
Chapman said academic, personal or financial stresses — as well as fear of the "Freshman 15" weight gain — can contribute to
unhealthy eating habits or disorders. She said this was especially true for people who were prone to striving for perfection or people who considered their appearance to be a key to success.
She said that in cases of eating disorders, the people with the problems were typically in denial and rarely sought treatment on their own.
In such cases, she said it was up to the person's friends and acquaintances to look for signs of a problem such as restrictive dieting, excessive weight loss or preoccupation with food and then confront the person about seeking help. Friends should stress that their concern was brought on because they care for the person.
"It sounds like you are policing the person, but you need to break through their denial," Chapman said. "We always urge that the friend not try to solve the problem but bring them in to get some
help."
Chapman said help was available for students with eating disorders through Watkins doctors, dietitians and Counseling and Psychological Services.
John Wade, staff psychologist and outreach coordinator at Counseling and Psychological Services, sald eating disorders were treatable.
Since eating disorders involve more than just food, treatment typically explores other sources of stress in a person's life, Wade said.
He said a problem in treating eating disorders was a person's reluctance to seek help.
"Often what goes along with an eating disorder is trying to keep it a secret from other people." Wade said.
Students with questions about eating disorders can call Watkins Memorial Health Center at 864-9500.

More donors still wanted for blood drive

KU students have the chance to make a difference during the Kansas University Athletic Corporation campus blood drive.
The blood drive started yesterday and will continue until Friday at the lobby in Allen Fieldhouse.
Cindy Schmidteler, Kansas Blood Services, said the blood drive provided a good chance for students to contribute something to the community.
"Their donation will help to save a life," Schmidteler said. "We are always looking for donors, and if they come out, they can really make a difference."
Schmiedeler said that the drive went well yesterday, thanks to plenty of volunteer help but that more
donors were needed. She said between 60 and 70 people donated blood yesterday, but about 100 donors were expected.
"The donor flow has been really down — It has been really disappointing." Schmiedeler said. "We're hoping that the rest of the week goes a lot better."
blood, make sure you eat a full meal. Don't skip breakfast or lunch," Foppee said
Edited by Melody Ard
Schmiedeler said she thought the cold weather might have kept some donors from walking to the fieldhouse, but she hoped better weather later this week might encourage more people to come.
"These are 60 more units than we would have had if we hadn't been out collecting today, so we're thankful for that," she said. "But based on last semester, we collected so many more. We're hoping that it will get better."
As an incentive for donating blood, Hollywood Theaters is giving two movie passes to every donor, Schmiedeler said.
She said potential donors must be at least 17 years old, weigh 110 pounds and be in good health without cold or flu symptoms, or a fever.
Taking medication does not always disqualify a person from donating blood. Some medications are acceptable, and donors should tell blood drive workers what medicines they have been taking.
"We don't want you to donate if it is going to make you feel poor, and it has to be a safe donation for the patient receiving the blood." Schmidteler said.
Almee Foppe, health care cator at Watkins, said people who were going to donate blood should make
sure they kept their energy levels up during the day to avoid problems.

KU police captain reflects on career
By Katie Burford
Kansan staff writer
Pieces of University history that Captain Vic Strnad has witnessed litter the space around his desk—a fragment of a tombstone found on campus but never identified, a bent nail intended to puncture the tires of patrolling officers' vehicles during the unrest of the early '70s, an aerial shot of the old KANU radio tower, felled by vandals in 1981, and so on.
Captain Vic Strnad works with a computerized polygraph machine. Strnad has been involved with law enforcement for nearly 30 years. Photo by Joseph Griffin/KANSAN
Nearly 30 years of experience in law enforcement are represented in these mementos. They tell the story of a man who was barely older than the students he was in charge of protecting when he started as a patrolman in June 1969.
Before arriving in Lawrence, Strnad had spent most of his life in Central Kansas, farming the land his family had worked since it emigrated from Czechoslovakia in the late 1800s.
In February 1969, he married his high school sweetheart. After passing a civil service test, he got a call from the University of Kansas to interview for a position in the Traffic and Security department.
His wife, Colleen, interviewed in the Comptroller's Office the
same day. Strand remembers Traffic and Security Director E.P. Moomau telling him, "They told me they hired your wife, so we might as well hire you."
Both started their new jobs on June 1,1969.
For the newlyweds, it was the beginning of a new life. For Colleen, Lawrence was the biggest city she had ever been in. And the pay wasn't bad, either.
"We thought we were making all kinds of money." Strnad said.
But there were storms building on the University horizon. On the national front, civil rights and the Vietnam War issues had exploded. The University wasn't far behind.

Bill hopes to scrap state architectural reviews
Bv Katrina Hull
Special to the Kansan
When KU architects design a new building, the state of Kansas is looking over their shoulders and billing the University for the review.
The state's architectural review process has nothing to do with lack of trust in the University's registered architects and licensed engineers and is a tradition that has become costly and inefficient, says a Kansas legislator.
State Rep. David Adkins, R-Lea-
wood, who is a former KU student
body president, said his bill would
permit architectural plans to be
approved by a university employee, eliminating the need for approval by a State Architect.
Adkin's proposal would allow the University to rely on its own team of architects and save the 1 percent of the cost of the project that goes to the state architect's office.
Adkins said the bill primarily would affect the University of Kansas, the University of Kansas Medical Center and Kansas State University, although all Regents schools are included in the proposal.
Warren Corman, University architect, and Adkins said the money the state architect received could be used better for further educational
renovations.
Adkins said it made sense to let the University approve its own architectural plans because it had capable, licensed architects on staff who knew the University and that they would have to live with what they built.
Mostly, Adkins said, the bill would improve overall efficiency in developing state universities without risk.
"Government should run like a business and be more flexible," he said. "Yet at the same time it can't compromise quality or safety."
State's review
Anytime a Kansas Regents University wants to build a structure, the state requires that 1 percent of the total cost be paid to the state for a licensed review. Here is a breakdown of what each University has paid in the past three years.

Program links KU students with alumni
By Amanda Kaschube Special to the Kansan
When Troy Dinges, Victoria senior, has a question about his future in the law profession, he has a friend to talk to, courtesy of the University of Kansas Alumni Association.
More than 400 alumni and 120 students are involved in the year-old program, said Sheila Immel, senior vice-president of external affairs at the Alumni Association.
'Hawk Talk is a professional networking system developed by the organization to connect KU students with volunteer mentors in various career fields.
Dinges has been a part of 'Hawk Talk from the beginning.
"It's not so much about job connections, but you get a lot of insight into what you do in the real working world." he said.
the Alumni Association pairs up students and mentors according to career interests and similar geographical working areas. For example, a pre-pharmacy student wanting to work in the Midwest might be paired with an alumnus working in Chicago as a pharmacist, Immel said.
To join 'Hawk Talk, current KU students must join the Alumni Association as a student member and pay the $15 membership fee.
"Students can certainly use 'Hawk Talk as they try to figure out more about their career,' Immel said. "The mentors are experienced professionals in the student's field."
Alumni work in such fields as law, pharmacy and real estate have joined the organization.
Students who are paired with alumni living in Lawrence often develop a closer relationship with their mentors, Immel said.
Bernie Nordling, a partially retired lawyer and KU alumnus, dedicates his time to helping future lawyers adjust to the field.
"I meet with my students at least two or three times a month," Nordling said. "I feel really comfortable helping all of them."
Nordling helps Dinges learn more about law.
"We meet for lunch often, and I tell him the advantages and disadvantages to being a lawyer," Nordling said. "Troy also asks me questions about the profession."
Dinges said he felt lucky to have such a helpful mentor.
"Bernie has taught me so much about the law profession and its applications," he said.
Dinges will continue his education in the KU law school next fall.
Alumni who live outside the Lawrence area contact students via e-mail and telephone.

Grammys bound to disappoint
Awards show to take place this evening
By Matt Cox
Kansan music critic
Time to watch the Grammy again. The program, which airs at 7 p.m. today on CBS, is bound to upset someone. There were nominations in three categories that were completely unjustified.
Album of the Year
Was the Academy afraid that Madonna would kill it if it didn't nominate her? I hope so, because there was no other reason Ray of Light should have been up for Album of the Year. Frozen was its only outstanding tune. The album itself recycled the same drum pattern with Madonna's most unimpressive display of vocals and lyrics to date.
I appreciated the attempt to reach out to the modern rock genre, but nominating Garbage shows the Academy didn't listen to many modern rock albums this year. Version 2.0 was one of the most well-recorded albums of the year but lacked any intense or moving melodies and hooks.
Shania, stop showing off your body and start concentrating on your music. Even though she was nominated this year, her beauty trick won't work in the
future. Apparently the Academy thought it only takes one good song to make one good album. Shania Twain's album, Come On Over, was an underdeveloped rehashing of today's pop country.
Lauryn Hill and Sheryl Crow deserved their nominations with their well-crafted and musically versatile albums.
I was disappointed that Fuel's album, Sunburn, didn't score a nomination. It is a modern rock gem that spawned the singles Bittersweet and Shimmer.
I also think the Dixie Chicks' Wide Open Spaces deserved a nomination for the lively debut.
Lauryn Hill will take this category, and she should. It's about time that an album from R&B genre finally got the Academy's attention.
Song of the Year
I don't want to hear a thing from Aerosmith again for the next 10 years. The writer, Dianne Warren, loved to rearrange songs she had written in the past and fool the world into thinking she was creative. I Don't Want to Miss A Thing offered nothing more than the common ramblings of an uninspired love-song writer.
Umm, the Titanic craze is finished now. I think we can finally admit to ourselves that it wasn't the best movie ever. We also admit that My Heart Will Go On's lyric content sank as low as the Titanic — overused and overrated.
Edwin McCain's I'll Be, one of the best-written love songs in the '90s, was overlooked this year. It could have easily competed with the likes of Goo Goo Doll's Iris and Twain's You're Still The One
I want Iris to take this category, but I bet Shania's pop success will score her the Grammy.
New Artist of the Year
excuse me? When did tools such as the Backstreet Boys become known as artists?
I thought artists created music. These pretty boys just sang and emulated the New Kids On The Block. Anyone who told you differently was selling something.
Natalie Imbruglia didn't convince me that her album was her own artistry rather than a product of her manager and producer.
Italian folk/popster Andrea Bocelli made an American impression, but the fact that no one heard of him until recently will devastate his chances of winning this category.
Again, Fuel deserved a nomination. They made a great showing on the rock charts and Sunburn had many songs that should have grabbed the Academy's attention.
Lauryn Hill will probably win because of all the hype this year, but I think the Dixie Chicks' instrumental performances and songwriting surpass the artistry of Hill.

Son Volt to tour U.S. after finishing album
Versatile group to hit Lawrence tomorrow with Granada show
By Ezra Sykes
Kansan staff write
Jim Boquist thinks Lawrence is great.
And soon he'll be paying a visit.
"There are certain cities and towns that just have a feel to them, and Lawrence does," said Boquist, who plays bass for the band Son Volt.
Son Volt will be performing tomorrow night at the Granada, 1020 Massachusetts St., with opening act Richard Buckner.
Although the band is usually dubbed a folk rock group, Boquist said he couldn't put a specific label on the band's music.
"It runs a gamut really," he said in a phone interview from St Petersburg, Fla., where the band kicked off its current tour. "It goes from folk to rock to jazz to garage rock to Iggy Pop and everything in between."
The band is currently promoting its third album, Wide Swing Tremolo, which was recorded in 1997 and 1998 in an old lingerie warehouse.
Boquist said renting the warehouse gave the band an opportunity to explore more musical styles because it didn't have to worry about paying for studio time.
"It's a natural extension of the first two records, but there was a lot more room for experimentation," Boquist said, describing the band's use of unusual recording techniques. "We were able to mess around because we weren't always watching the clock."
Boquist said although being on the road for long periods of time could be exhausting, after recording the album, he was eager to go on tour.
"By the time you're done in the studio, you're ready to get on the road, but after six months on the road, you're ready to hit the studio again," he said. "They kind of compliment each other. They both have attractions."
Lorette Wyrick, Emporia sophomore, attended a Son Volt concert last fall at the Granada.
"I wasn't familiar with their new album, but the show was enjoyable because their music is all consistent," she said. "It's mellow, rock 'n' roll and very Americana."
"It was interesting to see him perform because his physical presence didn't fit his voice," she said. "It doesn't sound like what you expect it to look like."
Blondie releases new album, hopes reunion isn't a flop
Advance tickets for the show are $12.
- Edited by Clint Hooker
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Research, not sloth, led members of Blondie to kill a few hours in the afternoon watching MTV in a luxury hotel suite.
After 16 years away from the pop music world, these former chart-toppers needed to see what the competition was up to. Not much to hold Chris Stein's attention, it seemed.
"I don't really know any of this stuff," he muttered, "and I don't really have any interest in it, either."
Now it's time to wonder if the pop music world is interested in them.
With a reputation burnished by nostalgia, Blondie has re-formed and released its first album of new material since 1982. Rock reunions are often depressing jokes, but early signs here are encouraging: The first single, *Maria*, entered the British charts at No. 1, and VH1 filmed Blondie's first New York concert appearance for a special that airs Sunday at 9 o'clock.
woman Deborah Harry was a tough girl with pinup looks who could sing, too.
Hits such as Heart of Glass, Rapture and The Tide Is High made Blondie among the most commercially successful bands to emerge from the punk rock scene. The band was engaging eclectic and front-
Money tore them apart. When they weren't making much at the height of success, they turned on each other. Stein was also seriously ill for years with a rare genetic illness, and Harry, then his wife, effectively disappeared to help nurse him back to health.
With artists such as Garbage successfully mining Blondie's territory, Stein thought the time was right for a second try. Blondie is not ashamed to admit it's trying to cash in.
"I thought that if I didn't do it, I would look back in 10 years and say I probably should have done it," Stein said.
Harry, soured by the band's final days, didn't immediately warm to Stein's suggestion.
Disillusioned with the music business, keyboard player Jimmy Destry had spent years working as a contractor. He had renewed his interest in music and, oddly enough, was in England producing a Blondie tribute album when Stein called to talk about a reunion. Drummer Clem Burke had stayed in music, working for Eurythmics and others, and was also willing.
"He needed to work on me for a while," she said. "I
thought it was not a good idea at all. I just didn't want to delve in the past."
Stein's enthusiasm and Harry's pride won her over. She had done some acting, released some poorly received solo albums and sung for the Jazz Passengers, but the work wasn't entirely satisfying.
"I'm very proud of Blondie, the things we did for music," she said. "I thought it was sort of a shame that I couldn't continue my career as Blondie."
Some bad blood lingers. Nigel Harrison and Frank Infante, who joined the original quartet after the first album, aren't involved this time and have sued their former colleagues because of it.
But the passage of time is great for changing perspectives.
"We would do photo sessions in the old days, and the photographers would say, 'Debbie, come here and do some photos by yourself,'" Stein said. "Everybody would start complaining. Now everybody's happy because nobody wants to do the work anymore."
Harry is, after all, synonymous with Blondie for a lot of fans. Her inability to establish a solo career quietly may have proven the point that male band members defensively made in the old days — that they were a group, not a bunch of backup players.
Harry, 53, said she enjoyed hearing women say she had helped encourage them to follow a dream into music.
"Somebody would have done it if not Debbie, but she happened to do it," Stein said. "It was something that was coming along with the rise of feminism in society. Debbie's statement was that she didn't want to be seen as a victim. It was a form of girl power."
"I don't think her singing and her role as a musician was ever discussed in the first time around," Stein said. "Only her attitude was discussed and her stance, how she was acting. And as a singer, she was more than good."
Time also puts Harry's influence in better perspective. She wasn't afraid to use her sexuality in a male-dominated business. That was something new. Stein, 49, remembers an entire chapter of a book on Blondie devoted to a furious attack on Harry for showing a glimpse of her underwear.
It's the men in Blondie, oddly enough, who talk about Harry's influence on women when asked about the band's legacy. Harry instead mentions Rapture, the 1980 hit, which was the first exposure to rap music for many white music fans.

Students find ways to creatively decorate and consolidate the space in their residence hall rooms
There are few things on the KU campus that have less character than an empty residence hall room. With cold, tiled floors and cinder-block walls, students often have a sterile and drab first impression of university life.
However, many KU students have found ways to personalize and decorate their living spaces. Students living in the residence halls have limited space to sleep, socialize and study, but many feel it is important to enhance the room's appearance with personal touches that make the room more comfortable.
Some residents say it isn't always easy to work within the restrictions and size of their residence hall rooms, but with additional cinder blocks, chairs, carpet and a little creativity the rooms are very livable.
Interior design student Adam Kezziah, Colorado Springs, Colo., junior, said that students in the residence halls added personal effects to make their rooms their own.
Lawrence freelance interior designer Susie Harwood said that a residence hall room could be made appealing by carrying a certain color or pattern scheme throughout the room. She suggested adding fabric window treatments, throw pillows or an area rug that coordinated with the bedspread.
"Students need to make it their own space just to be comfortable," he said. "They need to make it home to them and a nice environment to live in."
"These are inexpensive ways to have fun personalizing the room." Harwood said.
Luke Brodine, an Overland Park sophomore who lives in Templin Hall, hung a disco ball and CDs throughout his room.
"Why be boring?" he said. "The color brings so much more personality and life to a room."
Many students have transformed their rooms into more than just a place to sleep. Jen Green, Emmetsburg, Iowa, sophomore, added chairs and wire shelves, a table and area rug to make her Corbin Hall room multi-functional.
"I wanted to make a place where I could hang out and entertain my friends in," she said. "I wanted to make it more than just a bedroom."
BETTER LOVE BETTER LOVE
Lisa Meinen, Baldwin City junior, said that when she moved in a love seat sleeper couch, an armchair and took apart some things, it made her Corbin Hall room seem less like a residence hall room and more like a studio apartment.
"In the corner I have the study with my desk and where the couch is, that's the living room," she said.
Meinen took the mirror out of her shelves' door and used it as a coffee table top. In the cabinets she put her television and stereo, making it look like a built-in entertainment system.
Interior design students said that it was important for people living in smaller accommodations, such as the residence hall rooms, to keep their things organized.
"By not having clutter it makes a room look bigger," Kezziiah said.
He said one easy way to avoid cluttering up a room was by adding bookshelves to organize and display things.
"Don't just jam everything into one corner," he said. "It makes a room look really small and disorganized."

it is such a small space," she said.
"Raising beds up onto cinder blocks is a good way to have more space for storage, or for a living area."
Interior design student Kendall Dittmer, Derby junior, said that many residence hall occupants did a good job of utilizing what space they did have.
She suggested that students buy stackable and under-

Freshmen roommates Tracy Elliott, Edmond, Okla., and Lucy McShane, Fairway, raised one of the two beds in their Corbin Hall room and put a futon under it facing their television.
They said their room's set-up made it easy for people to congregate.
"Our room is somewhat of the floor meeting place," McShane said. "Everyone comes down here to watch Dawson's Creek, 90210 and Friends."
"Take the junk you don't need home," Dittmer said, "It just clutters up the place."
Dittmer said McShane's and Elliott's futon was practical for the residence halls, because it was a piece of furniture that can be used for several things, such as a sofa or a bed.
Dittmer said that decorating with a theme was also a good idea.
Elizabeth Johnson, Leavenworth freshman, hung license plates and road signs throughout her Gertrude Sellards Pearson Hall room.
"My roommate and I just thought it would be an original idea," she said.
She said that their collection came from antique shops.
Natalie Jayaram, Overland Park freshman, hung a sticky-hack border throughout her Corbin Hall room.
Dittmer said that this type of adhesive, decorative border was a good way to add color and life to a dorm room, while working within restrictions. She also suggested using contact paper on shelves or walls for additional color.
Kezziah said that students' rooms should be inviting and reflect their personalities.
Hashinger Hall roommates Susan Tusa, Omaha, Neb., sophomore, and Tara Tonsor, St. Louis freshman, have a collection of postcards on their side-by-side closet doors.
Tusa said that they tried to cover everything in their room with something. They have everything from butterflies to Christmas lights to Strawberry Shortcake covering their walls.
"We are both art students and that shows in our room," Tonsor said.
Alex Barnett, Chicago freshmen hung his artwork, posters and tapestries to give his Hashinger Hall room an eclectic feel.
"I don't like living in a jail cell," he said. "This just gives me and my friends stuff to look at."

Jayhawks' recruit Collison on elite team
By Chris Wristen
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas basketball signe Nick Collison received Monday one of the most prestigious high school hoops honors — a spot on the McDonald's All-America team.
Collison, a 6-9 forward from Iowa Falls (Iowa) High School, is averaging 23 points,11 rebounds and 5 blocked shots a game. He is one of 25 players to be selected to the elite squad.
“It’s an honor to be recognized as one of the top 20 players in the country,” Collison said. “I know there were a lot of other great players who didn’t get selected but were deserving, so it’s great to be honored like that.”
His mother agrees.
"He's worked really hard, and I've gotten to see all of the effort he's put into it over the years," Judy Collison said. "I think the honors he receives are very deserving, and I'm just really proud of him."
A longtime fan of the McDonald's All America game, Collison said the selection was important to him.
"With all of the names that have played there before, it's really an honor to be selected to play." Collison said.
The game between the East and West selections on March 24 will be played in Ames, Iowa, virtually in the backyard of Collision's Iowa Falls home. He is expecting a large turnout of friends and family.
"A lot of my friends have already bought their tickets, and we'll probably buy a block of tickets." Collison said. "We'll probably have about 200 people there."
He still has business to take care of in Iowa Falls before he can turn his attention to national prominence. His Iowa Falls team is putting its 19-0 record on the line tonight in the district playoffs.
Collison said that not many of his opponents had provided much of a challenge to this point, so he's looking forward to playing some of the nation's best in the All-America game.
"I haven't played against that type of competition in a while, since last summer actually, so I'm looking forward to getting in and practicing to see how I stack up to these guys," Collison said. "It should be a fun week, and the game should be a lot of fun too."

Kansas hopes to lasso Cowgirls
Oklahoma State struggling offensively
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
Oklahoma State women's head coach Dick Halterman wants his team to finish the season on a winning note, but 22nd-ranked Kansas isn't the opponent he was hoping for.
Their seasons may be headed in entirely different directions, but Kansas and Oklahoma State's paths will cross tonight in Stillwater.
Kansas (20-7 overall, 10-4 Big 12) heads back on the road to battle the Cowgirls (12-12, 4-10) at 7 p.m. in Stillwater.
Halterman's squand is in the middle of the program's worst losing streak in more than a decade. The Cowgirls have lost four games in a row and nineteen of
their last 11, matching only the '85-'86 team, which finished the season with only one win in its final 11 games.
"We're just struggling," Halterman said. "We just can find enough points
... We're averaging about 60 points a game, and that's not going to win many games in this conference."
Kansas coach Marian Washington probably doesn't mind when the Jayhawks only score 60 points, because their top-ranked Big 12 defense has only relinquished 50.6 points a game during their current 7-1 streak.
The Jayhawks will pose a major problem for the undersized Cowgirls, whose offense ranks last in the conference in scoring and field goal percentage at 39 percent.
"Kansas falls into the category with Texas as very athletic teams that really give us match-up problems," Halterman said.

"Crow is a great player and scorer." Washington said. "We're going to have to keep a hand in her face and make her work."
But as the Jayhawks realized after three early conference losses, one scorer isn't enough to win in the Big 12. Ever preseason Big 12 player of the year Lynn Pride couldn't carry Kansas to victory consistently.

Senior hitter leads team with seven-game streak
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
Bv Matt Tait
First baseman strives to maintain lucky record
Despite the statistic, King, Gainesville, Fla., senior, remains modest about the achievement.
For most hitters, a year off could throw off their timing, but for Chad King, a year off has resulted in a seven-game hitting streak.
After missing nearly 100 games during the past year because of an injury, King, the Jayhawks 'first baseman, has hit safely in all seven of the team's games this season.
Coach Bobby Randall said that King was the strongest player he had coached and that the main reason for King's success was his strength.
"It's just a coincidence," he said. "Honestly, I have no idea why it happened."
Baseball
"Chad has got as much hitting potential as anyone I've ever coached." Randall said. "He's not up to that potential yet, but when he gets straightened out, it will mean bigger hits."
He also said that King understood how to hit and that if he improved his timing more hits would come.
"But understanding and doing are two different things, and hitting is one of the
"It's not something I think about. I just want to win," King said. "But I've approached it from a different standpoint than in the past. I used to tie the left shoe before the right, but I've changed and I don't get caught up in numbers or superstitions anymore."
King, who is 10 for 31 for the season, said he thought his numbers and his power could improve.
most difficult things to do in sports," Randall said.
King, who is aware that a legitimate hitting streak is not something that comes along often, said that it was not constantly on his mind.
"I've seen guys go into a hitting streak and not hit great." Randall said.
... is what King said was happening.
... will be something to talk about. King said
More realistically, King alluded that even if he had a 15- or 16-game streak —
A senior farewell
That is what King said was happening.

Commentary
Tournament to showcase Big 12 battle
Both Pierce and Raef LaFrentz are doing well at their new homes in the NBA
If I had a dollar for every time I heard some talking head on television say "Paul Pierce — making NBA teams wish they would have picked him sooner than No. 10," I'd be able to start paying off my student loans early.
But this column isn't going to be about the NBA. No Dennis Rodman "As the Worm Turns" updates from me. Why? Well, because Big 12 basketball is FAN-tastic.
If you were at Monday night's game against Oklahoma State, you saw first-hand what excitement this league has to offer late in the season.
That game had everything — from the drama of overtime to the comedy of OSU's Doug Gottlieb styling in backwards
shorts at the beginning of the game.
1980
Whoever started the "Shorts on backwards!" chant gets the first ever Seth Jones right arm flex. While not as famous as the Ryan Robertson right arm flex, it comes with the same amount of enthusiasm. That was one of the funniest things I've seen in Allen Fieldhouse.

If I were Jeff Boschee, I wouldn't have been able to resist the possibilities for trash talk.
"Hey Doug, I may be a freshman, but at least I know that the tag in my shorts goes in the back!" or maybe "I'm not sure if it's because of your lack of intelligence, or my quick first step, but somehow you managed to end up with your shorts on backwards."
Want to know why that game was so good? It's because March Madness is just around the corner. That was an Oklahoma State team hungry not only for a win, but also a postseason berth.
If you want to go check out the Big 12 tournament at Kemper Arena, you have until March 4 to scrape together the $180 to see all 11 games in person.
The field of 64 teams is starting to shape up, and the Big 12 tournament will be one of the most interesting tournaments out there.
But even the worst nose-bleed seat in Kemper Arena would be an enjoyable one this year. It'll be a dogfight for the scraps of hope to make it to the Big Dance.
For college students, that's a lot of plasma.
Texas and Kansas are locks for the NCAA tournament at 1st and 2nd in the Big 12 and No. 32 and No. 17 in the Rating Percentage Index. Oklahoma and Missouri, currently at No. 31 and No. 30 in the RPI and 3rd and tied at 4th in the Big 12 should both feel very confident.
Nebraska finds itself in a tight spot at No. 45 on the RPI and 6th in the Big 12. Kansas fans can attest to the abilities of this team, but unfortunately, the selection committee doesn't listen to Kansas fans.
Oklahoma State, a team with plenty of athleticism, is in no-man's land in the RPI at No. 58 and 6th in the Big 12.
The feeling is that the Big 12 should get four teams to postseason play. Outside of Kansas and Texas, the other teams bunched in the middle of the league should all consider themselves on the bubble. These teams won't want to leave anything to chance, and will want to solidify their bids for the tournament.
So how do they do that? An automatic bid by winning the Big 12 tournament would be the sure-fire way, but only one team gets that honor. So the other bubble teams all just scratch and claw to put on the best late performance for the selection committee they can.
That makes Kemper Arena the sight for a showdown with many teams that are smelling blood.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
This is a year of growth for you. It starts out with a dream coming true around April. There work involved, but the money is available in May. Projects at home demand attention through June. Devote more time to work in August to take advantage of an opportunity. A distant friend brings you luck in November. A career change could bring more money in December, but it's also disruptive. Rely on friends through a lovers' quarrel in February.
Aries: Today is a 6.
There might be a problem between you and somebody you love today, one of those silly little misunderstandings that gets blown way out of proportion. If you see anything like that brewing today, clam up. It's much better to say nothing than to say something y take back later.
Taurus: Today is a 6.
Your experience comes in very handy today. You might rely on tricks you learned years ago. If it looks as if it's going to be easy, don't even go there. It'll be a bigger mess than you can imagine. The best plan for today might be to wait and try again tomorrow.
Gemini: Today is a 7.
It looks as if you're still arguing your case today. You've got some good points, but if you overlook the emotional angle, you'll be making a big mistake. The person who is seen as the most sensitive, warm and loving will gain the most approval.
you'll have to
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Don't ask your boss or your parents or anybody in a position of authority for favors today. Nonverbal communication will get through where verbal communication won't. In other words, a tear or a smile are worth a thousand words.
Leo: Today is a 7.
Virgo: Today is a 5.
Proceed with caution again today. Although you and your friends are pretty smart, unexpected complications could arise. Keep your overall objective in mind and don't get tangle up in the details.
Libra: Today is a 6.
Somebody's going to have to make a decision, it might be you. Sure, it's not your place to do that, but you're the only one who can see what really needs to be done. You've got a few friends who help.
You may have voted in favor of love yesterday only to think that everything is falling apart. Did you make the wrong choice? Sometimes these things take a little while to work out. If you have a disagreement today, don't make much of it.
There's confusion, misunderstanding and then a moment of brilliance when suddenly you understand exactly what you should be doing, and with whom. And just about the time that registers, there could be another jolt, and you'll notice you've walked right into attention.
Scorpio: Today is a 6.
Love's still in the air, but there are complications. It's kind of as if you are on a picnic with the person of your dreams, and suddenly a horten's nest gets knocked over, and you have to make a run for it. You'll find out more about each other, some of it good bad. Proceed with caution.
Sagittarius: Today is a 5.
Just when you think you've got it all figured out, you're thrown a curve. It looks as if there's a setback, and it might not be your fault. Just set your plan a little bit further ahead, and give it a try. It's a Capricorn specialty.
Capricorn: Today is a 5.
You're learning about love, and some lessons have to be learned through experience. Today, the lesson won't be quite that easy, and it might come as a surprise. Something you had figured one way could turn out to be another, so watch out.
Pisces: Today is a 5.
Aauarius: Today is a 6.
You're one of the most generous people in the world, and your only problem is that you don't have enough money to do it all. Even if you were a bazillionaire, you wouldn't have enough money to spend on everyone you'd like.

Supreme Court ruling favors NCAA
Lower courts still may revisit sex bias issue
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court yesterday made it harder to sue the NCAA under a law banning sex bias in educational programs receiving federal aid.
Ruling unanimously, the court said the fact that the NCAA receives dues from federally financed colleges and universities does not open it to lawsuits with the anti-bias law known as Title IX of the Education Acts of 1972.
But the decision left open the possibility that such lawsuits still may be allowed. The justices told a lower court to consider other arguments raised by Renee Smith, an Ohio woman who said she was illegally declared ineligible to play intercollegiate volleyball.
Smith had argued the NCAA can be sued because the dues it receives from member schools makes it an indirect recipient of federal funds
But Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg wrote for the court, "At most, the association's receipt of dues demonstrates that it
NCAA
indirectly benefits from the federal assistance afforded its members. This showing, without more, is insufficient to trigger Title IX coverage."
Smith's lawyer, Carter Phillips, said he was not concerned about today's ruling, adding he thought Smith had a good chance of convincing a lower court she still should be allowed to sue the NCAA because schools have given it control of athletic programs.
"We clearly live to fight another day." Phillips said.
The NCAA's lawyers told the court during arguments in January that the association was not a federal aid recipient and that athletes should take up discrimination complaints with the individual schools.
Smith, who lives in Wintersville, Ohio, played volleyball for St. Bonaventure in the 1991-92 and 1992-93 seasons. She chose not to participate in the next season, and she graduated in less than three years.
Smith later pursued a graduate degree at Hofstra University and a law degree at the University of Pittsburgh. At each, her attempts to play two more seasons of volleyball were thwarted by an NCAA rule that bars graduate students from competing in intercollegiate athletics at a school other than the one from which they earned their undergraduate degree
Her lawsuit said the NCAA granted men a disproportionate
number of waivers from that eligibility rule. The NCAA said more men sought such waivers and added that a higher percentage of women were granted them.
Today, the Supreme Court disagreed.
A federal judge threw out Smith's lawsuit, but the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals reinstated her Title IX claim last year. "The NCAA is not merely an incidental beneficiary of federal funds," the appeals court said.
"Entities that receive federal assistance, whether directly or through an intermediary, are recipients within the meaning of Title IX; entities that only benefit economically from federal assistance are not." Ginsburg wrote.
The justices returned the case to a lower court to hear Smith's arguments that she should be allowed to sue the NCAA because it receives federal funds through the National Youth Sports Program and on grounds that schools have handed controlling authority to the NCAA.
Baseball 2-5 despite Chad King's streak
Continued from page 1B
which he said was unlikely - his approach would remain the same.
"That's a huge if, in my opinion," King said. "I've just been getting a lot of lucky breaks and bounces."
King has had some notable hits in the past seven games. In the season opener, he hit his first career triple.
"I've been working on my speed, as we all have, and with me in particular, my speed has improved a lot." King said.
Despite King's hitting streak, the baseball team, which is 2-5, has had a disappointing start.
King's next attempt to continue the streak will come this weekend in Lubbock, Texas, when the Jayhawks play Texas Tech, which is ranked No. 22 in the nation.
"Across the board I just try to improve with every at bat," King said. "I don't really worry about errors or my batting average. I just try to play hard."

Washington,team readv for Cowgirls
Continued from page 1B
Washington said. "I just don't think (Halterman) has that role player yet that could help Crow." Washington said her team would not be looking past Oklahoma State no matter how severe an underdog it appeared to be.
"They're the kind of team that doesn't have a thing to lose, and when you play like that anything can happen," she said. "It's the kind of situation where if you're not careful you could underestimate them. I learned a long time ago that's the worst thing you could ever do."

Although Kansas' 20-win season has most likely locked up an NCAA berth, the Jayhawks are motivated to finish the season on a winning note. "You'd like to think you've got something secure, but we've got to keep working hard," Washington said.

Gallagher-Iba Arena • Stillwater, Okla.
HOUSTON — Kim Perrot made a name for herself as a scrapper, a dynamo point guard who wasn't even supposed to make the Houston Comets, let alone help them win the first WNBA championships.
The Associated Press
Fighting the cancer that has spread from her lungs to her brain will take more than a determined spirit. But Perrot says she's up to the task.
"I believe with all my heart and faith in God I will overcome this." Perrot told a hushed gathering of reporters Monday as she went public with her illness. She will undergo surgery today to remove the largest of the tumors in her brain, then two weeks of radiation to fight the rest.
After that, she faces six months of chemotherapy to combat the lung cancer that started it all.
The 5-foot 5 Percert showed little of the feisty demeanor Monday that earned her the reputation as one of the league's most effective defenders. Instead, fighting through tears and halted speech, she showed a quiet determination to beat her most fearsome opponent.
Brain tumor found in WNBA guard
"I've accepted it. I've dealt with it," said Perrot, who herself learned the diagnosis just last Friday after seeking treatment for weakness on her right side. Doctors discovered a golf ball-sized tumor on the left side of her brain.
Despite starring at the University of Southwestern Louisiana and playing six years of pro ball in places such as France, Sweden, Germany and Israel, Perrot wasn't exactly considered a shoe-in when she joined 54 other players in the Comets' local tryout in 1997. She barely made the team.
After assuming the point guard duties during the first title season, she guided Houston to a 27-3 record and a second trophy last summer. Her 84 steals earned her second place in Defensive Player of the Year balloting.
Playing on two sprained ankles, she capped off the deciding game of the best-of-3 championship series against Phoenix with 13 points, five rebounds and four assists in Houston's 80-71 victory.
"It's just going to be a little set back," Perrot said of the cancer. "I'll be back."
Doctors said it was too early to guess her prognosis, although they were confident her brain cancer could be brought under control.
According to Raymond Sawaya,
chief of neurosurgery at the renowned University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Houston, the lung cancer is the biggest long-term worry, but the brain tumors
WNBA
are the most immediate threat.
A nonsmoker, Perrot's lung cancer is a "low-frequency, random event," Sawaya said. The fact that the cancer had not originated in her brain made that part of her illness easier to treat, he said.
During the operation, Sawaya said, surgeons must be careful not to damage the nearby parts of the brain that control Perrot's movement on her right side.
Though she won't be at full speed while undergoing chemotherapy for the lung cancer, Sawaya held out the possibility Perrot could at least suit up with the team when the WNBA's third season begins this summer.
But whether it's this season or next, the tenacious guard expressed confidence she would return to the court.
"I have no doubt in my mind that I will be playing basketball again," Perrot said. "I wanted to announce this to the public as a demonstration of my faith and a testament to my own will to survive."

McGwire appears on sitcom
'Big Mac' joins Mad About You cast in episode
The Associated Press
JOURITER, Fla. - The reviews are in: Mark McGwire can act, too.
"He might be the next John Wayne," St. Louis Cardinals general manager Walt Jocketty said yesterday, a day after the 70-homer man made his debut on the sitcom, Mad About You. "I think if he wanted to, he'd be pretty good at it."
Manager Tony La Russa said McGwire's guest appearance was almost as good as one of his home runs.
"Whoever coached him for that appearance, we ought to hire." La Russa said. "He was outstanding—surprisingly. I was really impressed. I didn't expect him to be anywhere near that good."
Of course, not everyone was that complimentary. After all, McGwire played himself.
"He shouldn't quit his day job," pitching coach Dave Duncan joked.
Landing in bed on screen with Helen Hunt was one of the highlights of McGwire's hectic off season. He didn't appear until late in the half-hour show and didn't have a lot of lines but pulled off his role without a hitch in one of those mistaken identity, wrong-room routines.
His best line came at the end
when he and Hunt were at the
break fast table on the morning after. Paul Reiser walked in wearing a Cardinals uniform, continuing the role reversal theme.
" Y o u remember, they're going to be throwing you junk
A. D.
McGwire; Appeared as himself on a Mad TV about Yourpisode.
all year long," McGwire said.
"So just wait for your pitch."
Then he gave Hunt a quick kiss. Leaving character and returning to McGwire the baseball player, he raised an arm in triumph as if he'd just taken someone deen.
"I think it would be tough to be an actor all the time," pitcher
"Whoever coached him for that appearance, we ought to hire. He was outstanding — surprisingly."
Alan Benes said, "He was probably more nervous doing that than anytime in his life. That's probably a lot harder than facing a pitcher."
McGwire's only misstep Monday came when he missed a team party and screening at a local restaurant. McGwire apparently forgot about the back entrance the Cardinals had waiting for him and tried to go in the front door. When he saw TV cameras and fans waiting, he turned around.
"The notoriety he has gained, people want a piece of him," Jocketty said. "You'd be surprised at the unbelievable requests we get, from media and fans. They don't understand."
The Cardinals are taking steps to protect McGwire as much as possible. Though he showed up at camp Monday — two days ahead of schedule — he's not

speaking with reporters until after full-squad workouts start today. His interview time throughout spring and the season will be regulated.
"We'll make time to talk the first few days," La Russa said. "There are certain things he doesn't want to talk about after that point, like 'How'd it feel to hit 70?' If somebody tries to push him on it, they're not going to be very happy because he's just not going to talk about it."
McGwire took some batting practice in an indoor cage Monday. Yesterday he muscled up outside with 11 home runs in two batting practice turns, signed several autographs and then called it a day.
"Did you expect differently?" pitcher Matt Morris said. "Eleven homers, that's weak for him, isn't it?"
Daughter of legend plans to enter boxing
Muhammad Ali gives 21-year-old Laila tips, blessing
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — She has yet to throw a professional punch. She doesn't have a promoter. She has no proven skills.
And yet, she is drawing attention in the fledgling world of women's boxing because of her last name: Ali.
Laila Ali, the second-youngest of Muhammad Ali's nine children and his youngest daughter, is working out daily and might be ready for her first professional fight this summer.
The 21-year-old approached her father late last month to inform him she planned to follow in his foot steps.
That's probably something Ali might have said before he began his brilliant career as Cassius Clay in the late 1950s.
"Well, Daddy," she said, according to The New York Times, "I want to tell you I'm going into professional boxing, and I love you, and I want your support, and I want to tell you that even if I don't have your support, I'm going to do it anyway."
The 57-year-old former heavyweight champion who is weakened by Parkinson's disease, at least in part because of boxing, told his daughter he didn't want her to get hurt.
"Daddy, I'm not going to get hurt," she replied. "I'm going to be fighting women, not men. And I have your genetics."
So far, the 5-foot-10, 160-pounder only has sparred with her trainer, Kevin Morgan.
"She's very much like her dad. She's aggressive, very sure of herself, very confident," Norma Lynn
Cutter, Laila's publicist, told The Associated Press yesterday. "She also has an offbeat sense of humor like her father."
"She's extremely charming, and if I had to use one word, I'd say 'focused' or 'determined,' one word or the other."
Cutler said Laila probably would fight for the first time in August and was getting tips from her famed father.
"She won't tell anyone, including me, what they are," Cutler said. "She says, 'When I have the greatest boxer of all time as my mentor, why would I want to share the secrets he's given me?'"
Cutler said she has known Laila for about three years.
"She was working in the beauty industry, and I happened to use her services," Cutler said. "She believes she's going to be a champion and change the face of female boxing.
"For one thing, she is extremely beautiful, not that there aren't beautiful boxers."
Laila never saw her father box in person and told the Times she had few memories of living with him. But by boxing, she thinks he will gain a greater appreciation for her as his child.
"He's naturally going to see himself in me," said Laila, who with her sister, Hana, grew up in Malibu with her mother, Veronica, who was Ali's third wife. "But for the first time, I think he actually can see that 'this is my child.'"
"Don't read anything into that," Lomnie Ali said. "This is something Laila wants to do. It has nothing to do with Muhammad."
Lonnie Ali, Ali's current wife, told the Times her husband had no comment on Laila's career choice.
"He told me that it was a dirty business," she said. "He let me know it's a hard business, and he let me know that he supported me."
Laila said that while her father was alarmed about her direction, he was still on her side.
Soccer player's father reunited with family following kidnapping
Alvaro Campos escapes captivity after several days
The Associated Press
ACAPULCO, Mexico — The father of Mexico's star soccer goalkeeper Jorge Campos was safe and at home yesterday, six days after being kidnapped.
Mexican television stations broke into regular programming to report the news to a country seemingly grown numb to repeated waves of kidnappings.
Jorge Campos, the most popular athlete in Mexico, left his team in Mexico City and flew to this Pacific resort to meet his father. The player spoke briefly outside the family home, saying only that his father was well and that he did not think a ransom had been paid.
Alvaro Campos, 66, walked up to a police checkpoint outside Acapulco at 8:20 a.m., identified himself and asked for help. He was whisked to the Acapulco federal police office, where he met his family and was taken home.
Police sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the elder Campos sprained his left ankle when he tumbled down an embankment last Thursday trying to flee his captors.
Police doctors said he appeared tired but otherwise in good shape. The sources said he was not blindfolded during captivity and generally
was treated well.
Investigators suspect that Alvaro Campos was held captive at the town of Tixtlancingo, high in the Sierra Madre Mountains, according to the police sources.
The place is a known stronghold of the Peasant Organization of the Southern Sierra, an activist group linked to the Popular Revolutionary Army guerrilla organization.
The Campos family supports the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party, and Alvaro Campos spoke out several times in favor of its candidate Rene Juarez Cisneros, who was elected governor of Guerrero state this month.
As many as eight heavily armed men seized Alvaro Campos shortly before 2 p.m. on Feb. 17 at a sports field named for his son in a suburb of Acapulco.
Jorge Campos is famous for flamboyant play as a goalkeeper for Mexico's national team, appearing in the 1994 and 1998 World Cups. He has played the last three years for professional teams in the United States and Mexico, including the reigning Major League Soccer champion Chicago Fire.
Mexico has been plagued by hundreds of kidnappings every year for at least the past five years. Ransoms have ranged from hundreds to tens of millions of dollars.
Relatives of victims rarely complain to police, fearing current or former officers may be among the abductors and would pass word to the kidnappers.

Economic growth to slow this year
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan said yesterday that a surprisingly robust U.S. economy should continue growing but at a much slower pace than last year.
He also hinted that if the slowdown didn't occur, the central bank was prepared to increase interest rates to make it happen.
Delivering his twice-a-year report on Fed policy to Congress, Greenspan did not signal that a rate hike was imminent. Indeed, he also left open the possibility that if the global economic crisis should suddenly re-
ignite, the Fed would respond with further rate cuts, as it did last fall.
"We remain vulnerable to rapidly changing conditions overseas, which, as we all saw last summer, can be transmitted to U.S. markets quickly and
Greenspan: Says interest rate increase might be needed.

dramatically," Greenspan said.
But referring to the three interest
rate cuts the Fed made during a span of seven weeks last year, Greenspan said the central bank must address whether the full extent of the policy easings undertaken last fall remained appropriate.
That remark was seen as a signal that the Fed was having second thoughts about the third rate cut, which moved the federal funds rate, the interest that banks charge each other, down to 4.75 percent.
Greenspan called the economy's growth rate in the fourth quarter "torrid." He also repeated worries he expressed last month about whether the stock market's return to record levels was justified in light
of the weakness in corporate earnings.
"The Fed probably regrets in hindsight that the third rate cut was made," said Sung Won Sohn, chief economist at Wells Fargo in Maineapolis. "Chairman Greenspan is telling us that the Fed hopes the economy slows on its own, but he is not going to wait forever for that to occur."
Wall Street investors also had a pessimistic reading of Greenspan's words. Bond prices dropped sharply on fears of future Fed rate hikes, and stock prices edged lower as well. The Dow Jones industrial average finished the day down 8.26 at 9,544.42
Turkey formally arrests Kurdish leader
The Associated Press
Prosecutors will seek death penalty in trial of Abdullah Ocalan
ANKARA, Turkey -- At a secret hearing on a forbidding prison island, Turkey formally arrested the foremost Ku'dish rebel leader on treason charges yesterday, paving the way for trial by a security tribunal. Prosecutors said they would seek the death penalty.
Abdullah Ocalan's Turkish attorney was barred from the hearing or conferring with his client, who has been interrogated for a week without seeing a lawyer.
Ocalan, 49, leads the Kurdistan Workers Party or PKK, a rebel army that has waged a nearly 15-year fight for Kurdish autonomy in Turkey's rugged, impoverished southeast.
The conflict has claimed an estimated 37,000 lives, with the toll growing daily. Yesterday, the government reported the deaths of 14 rebels in clashes with Turkish troops in the mountains.
Yesterday's hearing was closed to the press and public.
Turkey has insisted that Ocalam's trial in a security court with military judges will be fair. It also has warned against any outside interference, repeating yesterday that foreign monitors will not be allowed to attend.
The case is complicated by the fact that Ocalan has been on trial in absentia for two years on charges of treason and separatism, which carry the death penalty.
Kurdish activists denounced the proceedings as a sham.
"All these show trials are attempts to cover up ... the plight of the Kurdish people," said Mizgin Sen, representative for the National Liberation Front of Kurdistan, the political wing of the PKK.
Turkish public sentiment, however, runs high against Ocalan. Protesters shouting "Shame on you" surrounded his lawyer's car in the mainland port town of Mudanya.
The Ocalan case has outraged expatriate Kurds and their supporters, who have staged violent protests in Europe and elsewhere since his capture.
Kosovo talks yield hope for agreement
The Associated Press
RAMBOUILLET. France — Serbia agreed in principle yesterday to give limited self-rule to majority ethnic Albanians in Kosovo, but the two sides failed after 17 days of intense negotiations to conclude a deal for ending their yearlong conflict. More talks were scheduled to begin March 15 as a new round of violence shook the province.
The partial settlement puts on hold, at least temporarily, NATO's threats to bomb Serb targets if they don't adopt the complex plan that would force them to withdraw troops from Kosovo and accept NATO peacekeepers.
After four days of strenuous personal diplomacy, shutting between the two sides and even enlisting the help of 1996 GOP presidential candidate Bob Dole, Secretary of State Madeleine Albright accepted less than she had insisted on.
According to senior U.S. officials, the Serbs still insist on Serbian courts for Serbs accused of crimes, refuse to permit the ethnic Albanians to have a president and are unwilling to cooperate with a war crimes tribunal looking into atrocities against civilians committed during the war that has claimed some2,000 lives.
The Albanians still are insisting on a referendum to vote for independence and secession from Serbia at the end of the three-year autonomy trial period envisioned by the accord formulated by the United States, Britain, France, Italy, Germany and Russia.
The settlement also calls for a restoration of the cease-fire that was arranged by U.S. envoy Richard Holbrooke last October and for the staged removal of Serbian troops and special police units — but only after a NATO force is deployed to enforce the agreement. The Serbs gave no indication that they would agree to NATO peacekeepers.
Final approval by the ethnic Albanians also is a question mark.
Albright arranged for Dole to call Adem Demaci, an ethnic Albanian hardlineer who boycotted the negotiations, to ask him to endorse the settlement. There was no word on whether Demaci or other ethnic Albanians who are fighting for secession from Serbia would go along.

Last week, a House subcommittee chairman charged that there was no crisis of faculty leaving the state for higher-paying jobs and carved $1.5 million out of a $2.5 million meritorious-faculty fund recommended by Gov. Bill Graves.
The University of Kansas and the Board of Regents have not given up their fight to raise faculty salaries to levels at least comparable to similar universities nationwide.
But this week, a Senate subcommittee thought differently and recommended adding $900,000 to the proposal, which would bring to the fund to $3.4 million. The Legislature is debating faculty salaries as part of this year's state budget.
In response, higher-education offi
cials are renewing their efforts to prove that if the situation continues, Kansas will suffer.
"I'm very concerned that if something is not done, the numbers leaving will be much more impressive in the future," Provost David Shulenburger said. "We don't want to get into that situation."
In a recent memo to Chancellor Robert Hemenway, Shulenburger reported that 31 faculty members had received or expected to receive offers from other institutions.
Those 31 instructors had been responsible for securing $6.7 million in outside grant money, or an average of $200,000 each. Shulenburger said in the memo. Two of the instructors had won University-wide teaching awards
Shulenburger and Hemenway have been walking the halls of the Capitol in Topeka for weeks, meeting with legislators and testifying before committees about the faculty-salary initiative. Hemenway said he and Shulenburger would continue to do so.
"The legislators are not hostile. They respect the University; they respect the Board of Regents." Hemenway said. "We have to convince them that this function the University performs is of sufficient value to the business of the state and that faculty need to be paid competitively."
"Other universities are targeting our best faculty and drawing them away," Shulenburger said.
"What that means is that faculty are lagging behind their fellow citizens," he said. "A salary is a reflection of the value of an individual to the society
Hemenway said average per capita income in Kansas had outpaced increases in pay for faculty in the last five years by about 1.5 percent.
that supports that person."
Robert Basow, associate professor of journalism and Faculty Senate president, said the salary issue extended beyond individual professors to the future quality of education.
"In order to keep attracting bright young minds to teach bright young minds, we have to act now," he said.
He said young faculty were often loaded with debt from their own education and had no choice to accept the best-paying jobs. With a third of the faculty above the age of 55 and retiring in the next decade, and young faculty going elsewhere, class sizes would rise and educational quality would decrease, he said.
"If we lose sight of the big picture, there will be no picture," he said.

Conference features KU alumni
Leadership award history focus of weekend meeting
By Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Almost 20 University of Kansas alumni will return to campus this week to speak with students and serve as panelists for a portion of the 12th annual Blueprints Student Leadership Conference.
the alumni's return marks the 25th anniversary of the Rusty Leffel Concerned Student Award, first awarded in 1973 to KU law student Rusty Leffel for his work promoting higher education in Kansas and establishing public support for the University.
Leffel will be among those returning to the University this weekend. In 1970, he founded Students Concerned about Higher Education in Kansas, now called Student Legislative Awareness Board.
Aaron Quisenberry, assistant director Organi zations and Leadership Center, said he hoped the conference would promote student involvement on campus.
"The conference can open students' eyes to how to act in a group," he said. "If we can get students at the conference, maybe they'll get involved with SUA or become an R.A. (resident assistant). Hopefully, we can give them a kick start."
Author and certified speaking professional
Carl Mays will be the keynote speaker at the conference, which is sponsored by the Organizations and Leadership Center. The conference is entitled "Discovering the Foundations of Leadership."
Mays is a specialist in motivation, human relations and performance improvement who has spoken to more than 2,000 groups including Fortune 500 companies. He has written leadership books entitled A Strategy for Winning and Anatomy of a Leader. He has also received the Council of Peers Award for Excellence.
Mays will deliver a second speech sponsored by the KU greek community at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday at Woodruff Auditorium in the Kansas Union. Admission is free and open to students.
Karen Isley, conference co-chair and Sylvania, Ohio, senior, said the conference would give students interested in leadership a chance to meet people and learn about opportunities available at the University.
"There's something for everyone at this conference," she said. "It's an extra source of motivation. Even if your goal is to get excited about school, this will definitely do it."
Students will be able to watch three speakers, listen to Mays and question the panel of former award recipients.

Speaker says Barbie can hurt U.S. women's health and self-esteem
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
Barbie might look good, but hardly any women look like that doll, a speaker at the February Sisters Forum said last night.
Eve-Lynn Nelson, Springfield Mo., graduate student, said that according to a 1996 study by Norton et. al., only one woman in 100,000 would be able to match Barbie's proportions.
"For me to match Barbie's image, I would have to grow two feet taller, a half-foot in my chest, and a half-foot in on my waist," she said, referring to another study done about Barbie by Brownell and Napolitano in 1996.
Lorraine Bayard de Volo, assistant professor of political science, and Diana Carlin, associate professor of communications studies, also spoke during the forum at Ecumenical Christian Ministries, 1204 Oread Ave.
Presenters at the forum, which was sponsored by the Women's Studies Program, spoke to an audience of 35 about images of women in media, politics and war, but it was the image of Barbie that caught the audience's attention.
"She has a completely unbelievable physique for playing soccer." Hayes said. "She wouldn't be able to breathe. Her legs would break."
Matt Hayes, Middlesborough, England, graduate student, said he saw a soccer-playing Barbie advertised in a soccer magazine.
"If you watch MTV you see a lot of thin people who are receiving a lot of attention for their bodies," Nelson said.
Nelson spoke about how Barbie and the media's portrayal of ideal U.S. women were connected to eating disorders and poor self-images in women.
Nelson said a 1996 KU study found that women who were shown slides of stereotypically attractive women later had lower self-esteem and were more depressed.
Media exposure, however, is just one factor in whether women develop eating disorders or not other factors include genetics, self-esteem, stress factors and family, she said.
The thinness of these women affects the way women view themselves and whether they might alter their eating habits, she said.
Nelson said her personal research looked into the ways mothers and daughters talked about images of women.
She said that people could combat the forces of the media on women by talking to their children about what those media images mean.
"Talk about acting beautiful instead of just looking beautiful," she said.

Man exposes himself to female KU student
A 22-year-old KU student was at her residence when a man appeared outside her window and exposed himself at 11:33 p.m. yesterday in the 2300 block of Yale Road, said Officer David Anderson of the Lawrence Police Department.
The student was studying when she saw a man outside her living room win dow. At first, the student thought he was a neighbor, Anderson said.
The student next saw the man heading toward the garage and shortly after heard noises in the bushes near another window. When she looked out, she saw the man with his pants down, Anderson said.
Upon seeing her, the man turned around and, grabbing his buttocks, mooned her. As the student was calling the police, the man began masturbating while shouting that he wanted a girl to see him pleasure himself. Anderson said.
The police found and arrested the Kansas City, Mo., man at 11:55 p.m. in the same block of the student's residence.
Drilling holes, listening gets student arrested
A 25-year-old KU student was arrested on charges of eavesdropping and criminal damage to property at 4:04 p.m. Tuesday in the 700 block of North Seventh Street, Sgt. George T. Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department said.
The man is suspected of drilling three holes in his apartment wall to see into his neighbor's bathroom between Oct. 10 and Nov. 10 in the 1100 block of Louisiana Street, Wheeler said.
The Douglas County District Attorney reviewed the case and issued a summons, which called for the suspect to be detained and to appear in court to face the charges, Wheeler said.

Man convicted in killing expected to lash out
JASPER, Texas — A white man convicted of dragging a black man to death will probably cling to his racist beliefs and could lash out violently again, a psychiatrist yesterday told the jury that will decide whether the defendant should live or die.
Other prosecution witnesses said John

King; Psychiatrist
says King could be violent again
William King, the white supremacist convicted Tuesday in the slaying of James Byrd Jr. last June, acted up in jail by threatening to assault a police investigator and smashing a TV set. A defense expert, however, said a life sentence would be appropriate for the 24-year-old former
laborer
Dr. Walter Quijano, a former chief psychologist for the Texas prison system now in private practice, said he based that conclusion on King's lack of drug use and the fact he used no weapons during previous crimes.
In Texas, a person serving a life sentence cannot become eligible for parole for at least 40 years.
Dr. Edward Gripon, a forensic psychiatrist who testified for the prosecution after reviewing King's writings and photograph of King's racist tattoos, said he doubts King will shake his beliefs.
"The probability of people at age 64 committing violence is very low," Quijano said.
"Anyone who has white supremacist or any other kind of acist feeling, if
they are heavily invested in that kind of ideology, it's not going to just go away," Gripon said.
The jury probably will be given the case today.
Avalanche hits Austria during heavy snowfalls
LANDECK, Austria — A 45-foot high avalanche thundered down the mountainside in a hamlet near the stricken Alpine village of Galtuer yesterday, killing one woman in the second straight day of deadly snowslides in western Austria.
The avalanche came as Austrian soldiers searched in hopes of finding survivors of Tuesday's deadly avalanche in Galtuer, where 16 people were confirmed dead.
Despite a break in the heavy snowfall, the avalanche roared through Valzur, some 7 miles northeast of Galtuer, yesterday afternoon. The new snowslide, 600-feet wide and about four-stories deep, destroyed three houses, the Austria Press Agency reported.
Nine people were swept away in Valizur. A man and a child were pulled out shaken but alive. Searchers later found one woman dead and listed six people as missing.
Already the death toll in Galtuer has surpassed that in Chamonix, France, where 12 people were killed this month. About 15 people were believed buried in Galtuer, near the Swiss border.
More than 60 people have died in avalanches across Europe this year.
American, British forces attack Iraqi missile sites
BAGHADD, Iraq — U.S. and British warplanes attacked targets on the outskirts of the Iraqi capital today, killing or wounding several people, the Iraqi armed forces said.
U. S. military officials said Air Force and Navy aircraft attacked two Iraqi surface-to-air missile sites near Al Iskandarylah, about 30 miles south of Baghdad, in response to anti-aircraft artillery fire and an Iraqi aircraft violation of the southern no-fly zone.
In a statement, the U.S. Central Command said an unspecified number of F-15E and F/A-18 aircraft carried out the attacks. The statement did not include what kind of weapons were used. The sites are at the extreme northern edge of the southern no-fly zone.
"There were no coalition aircraft damaged during the incident and battle damage assessment is ongoing," the American statement said.
ON THE RECORD
A KU student's car window was broken between 9 and 11:45 p.m. Tuesday in the 900 block of Iowa Street, Lawrence Police said.

to join the crusade for higher salaries but said they had to be careful they were not perceived as self-serving.
The Board of Regents also has pledged to keep pressing the Legislature for change.
"We're committed for two reasons," Basow said. "We love the subjects we teach, and we love who we teach. Education is a calling."
“It’s unfortunate that we can't get the Legislature's serious attention on the faculty-salary initiative unless we are at a crisis state,” said William Docking, Regents chairman.
But he said the Regents were holding out hope in the Senate. A Ways and Means subcommittee was expected to recommend adding $900,000 to Graves' faculty-retention fund in a report to the full committee next week. The addition would bring Graves' recommended 3.5 percent salary increase to 5 percent.
In the meantime, Regents would keep lobbying in the House and Senate, Docking said.
"It's certainly not over, and we're not going to give up on this," he said.
The House and Senate will eventually vote on separate versions of the state budget bill, which will then go to a conference committee to resolve differences.
"They say there are two things you should never watch closely being made." Hemenay said. "One is sausage; the other is legislation."

Bakery's future still uncertain
Joe's ownership contingent on divorce case's settlement
By Heather Woodward Kansan staff writer
While busy with a custody battle and legal haggling about the ownership of Joe's Bakery, Ralph Smith, who co-owns the bakery with his ex-wife Melody C. Smith, said he did not know when or if the bakery would re-open.
Joe's Bakery, 618 W. Ninth St., closed for Thanksgiving break and Smith said he had planned to re-open the bakery after the students returned. But after his ex-wife filed for divorce, Smith realized re-opening the bakery would not be possible right away.
"When you get divorced, you have expectations of what it's going to be," Smith said. "After a while, I realized it wasn't going to be over in one week. Now I have to go to court as a man and show that I have the ability to take care of my kids at least 50 percent of the time." Smith was quotedump. 15
In the meantime, the bakery's former employees have found other jobs, which has made reopening more difficult, Smith said. He has tried to retain ownership of the bakery and hopes that he won't have to sell it.
"If the court tells me I have to sell the bakery, then I'll sell it," Smith said. "As time has ticked by, my employees have gone elsewhere. I can't snap my fingers and open up."
Some students hope that Joe's will open sooner than
"I love that place," said Kyle Lew, Overland Park sophomore. "I heard about it being closed before I even came up to KU this semester. I used to go there a lot. I really hope that it repens."
later.
Smith's ex-wife used to split responsibility for preparing the food at Joe's. She would make sandwiches during the day, and Smith would bake the doughnuts at night.
Whether or not Smith gains joint custody of his three children also will be a factor in the future of the bakery because of the daily scheduling issues that joint custody of the children would bring. The bakery's hours were 6 a.m. to 2 a.m. on weekdays, with reduced hours on the weekends.
"I have to see what days I have the kids with me," Smith said. "If I own the bakery, and I'm assuming that I do own it, then I need to decide whether I want to run the bakery at the same hours. Maybe I'll bake just cakes and have my hours run from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. I just don't have any solid answers right now."
Katie Rodgers, Tulsa, Okla., sophomore, said that there wasn't another location in Lawrence that could replace Joe's.
"I'm sad because it's the only place to go if you want treats unless you go to a grocery store," Rodgers said. "At my sorority house we always used to get cookies from Joe's for everybody's birthday."
In the meantime, Smith has worked on the upkeep of Joe's and has done repairs that he previously hadn't had time to complete. The maintenance work means that the bakery will be ready to either open or sell once the divorce settlement is finalized, Smith said.

Internet2 expands KU superhighway
By Jennifer Roush
Kansan staff writer
the information superhighway added another lane yesterday.
The Abilene Network, a highspeed network that connects participating universities, including KU, was launched yesterday by the University Corporation for Advanced Internet Development.
Internet2 will be used for research and academic purposes, rather than the commercial traffic on the commodity Internet, said Wes Hubert, assistant director for Academic Computing Services.
Internet traffic between the 37 institutions connected yesterday support Internet2 and will be much faster than other connections.
Hubert said the Abileme Network could transmit data at 2.4 gigabits
per second, while the regular network transmitted data at 45 megabits per second.
Researchers and professors will be able to do interactive projects on Internet2 that wouldn't have been possible on the commercial Internet.
Adrian Melott, professor of physics and astronomy, said that he would use Internet2 for research about the universe's large-scale structure.
He said that he would take advantage of the higher connection speeds for interactive research with colleagues across the country. He also will be using Internet2 to transmit large data files and to do computer simulations that would not have been possible on the commercial Internet.
Hubert said that KU was one of the pilot universities involved with Internet2, and that the University received nearly $1.5 million from the National Science Foundation to pay for it.
Yesterday was a landmark day for
Internet2, Hubert said, because it represented a jump from just a few schools being connected to all of the charter schools being connected.
Ken Bishops, professor of chemical and petroleum engineering, said he would use Internet2 for research, but also to help develop problem-solving software that will be used on supercomputers.
He said that Internet2 would allow him to work with colleagues across the country and around the world on the same projects at the same time.
Bishop also anticipated that Internet2 would become commercialized in the same way that the Internet had.
He said that he thought an Internet3 could be necessary by 2002 or 2003 to meet future needs. He compared the Internet to a road system that would always need maintenance and expansion.

Editorial
Faculty salaries need attention from student lobbyists, legislators
Quality education at any level is heavily determined by the quality of the faculty. This especially is true at a research university. Recruiting and retaining qualified staff members is necessary to maintain a high level of education.
Unfortunately, the University of Kansas, and other Regents schools, is having trouble meeting this goal. Every year, about 3 percent of the University's faculty is lost because other institutions offer a higher salary. Most times, retention only occurs because professors who would leave already have attained tenure or have a specific University loyalty.
This year, the biggest complaint came from the communication studies department. With its faculty deficit, classes were overcrowded to the point
The Legislature's reduction in a proposed faculty pay increase is short-sighted.
that seniors had trouble enrolling in courses required for graduation.
The retention difficulty comes because faculty members at the University make only 88.2 percent of their peers' salary. With higher tuition costs every year, students face a particularly damaging situation: paying more for a decreasing quality of education. This does not say that remaining teachers are bad educators, but crowded classrooms and poor recruitment in filling retirement spots makes their job more difficult.
It is for these reasons our student lobbists recently made a trip to Topeka to ask for a 7.6 percent faculty salary increase. Not only is the increase necessary to maintain competitiveness with KU's peer institutions but also to recruit quality incoming staff. Unfortunately, the governor cut the request to just 3.5 percent, and Monday the Appropriations Committee made additional cuts to leave increases below 2 percent.
Tomorrow, the Student Legislative Awareness Board and other KU representatives will try once again to lobby for our faculty. KU Lobby Days was created to help bring students' issues to the attention of state legislators. With the increasing need for higher faculty salaries, legislators need to be convinced that this is a necessary step in preserving our educational quality.

Monday snow warranted class cancellations
I would like to express my feelings about the University's decision to hold classes despite the inclement weather on Monday. Although the roads were at least accessible before 11:30 a.m., the continuing snow accumulation made travel to campus a nightmare after noon. For roughly 30 percent of the student population that relies on the bus system, travel came to a halt at about noon.
Many roads leading to and from campus were shut down by police and city workers, including 9th and Engel and 15th and Iowa. Still, the administration of this University did not take appropriate steps to ensure the safety of its students.
Let's review: the Lawrence Bus Co. a private entity, made a judgement call
that the roads were too dangerous to risk the injury of its drivers and riders. These are professional drivers. They were out on the roads while the Chancellor sat warm in his office. This is the same bureaucracy which encourages students to use the bus system rather than drive to campus. Even worse, the police and the city closed roads which a student would use to drive to campus. If a group of people who make their living from driving have decided to avoid the roads, why should students be attempting to navigate them?
If the logic used by the bus company and the city was to help reduce accidents, to limit property damage and especially to increase safety, why does that logic fall on deaf ears at the administrative level of this campus? My opinion is that this administration
is highly elitist. That is, if you don't have access to a car, a parking pass or a reserved parking space on Jayhawk Boulevard, you don't count. Students and teachers who commute from outside the Lawrence area are out of luck.
The decision not to close classes after 12:30 — when the buses stopped running, pointed to an administration that cares more for its record of uninterrupted semesters than it does for its students and faculty. Perhaps next time this administration makes such a poor judgement call, it will show its concern for the students by handing out free hot cocoa on the street. Or better yet, by offering rides home to students stranded on campus.
But I won't hold my breath.

Perspective
Former Kansan critic gives Siskel 'thumbs up'
Gene Siskel, half of movie-reviewing duo Siskel and Ebert, died Saturday at a
Chicago hospital at the age of 53. Last May, he underwent surgery to remove a brain tumor, but his partner, Roger Ebert disclosed that Siskel still had been in pain in recent weeks.
Siskel's death brought an abrupt end to a three-decade career devoted to a topic dear to his heart and to mine: movies.
Jeremy Doherty
opinion@kansan.com
Through his years at the Chicago Tribune and as co-host of a highly
rated and nationally syndicated review program, Gene Siskel spared the bad movies no mercy and gave the few good ones their due.
And he did it consistently, in words that were witty, insightful and optimistic.
Along with Ebert, Siskel adapted the art of movie reviewing from its lofty roots at The New York and The New York Times and made it palatable to the average movie-goer.
He cut his teeth in the field at a time when Hollywood was breaking the rules, allowing wild kids such as Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Martin Scorsese to run with the keys to the city. It was during this time that he and Ebert — not to mention their thumbs — first sat across from each other in a public television studio, gripping and arguing about the latest releases.
It was an exciting time. I envy his good fortune to have been alive and working at such a moment. The key movies of the era - Taxi Driver, Star Wars, The Godfather - were movies about social upheaval, revolution and craftsmanship. In recent years, it was not uncommon to hear Siskel speak of the 1970s as the last golden era in American cinema.
Though most accounts suggest that their personal relationship was less than cozy, Siskel and Ebert sparked a movement of sorts. The phrase "two thumbs up" became the closest thing to a seal of approval. When they got tired of jabbering about the latest big-budget Hollywood production, the two critics alerted viewers to independent films and foreign imports — films that might otherwise have languished at inner-city art houses.
Because of that, there was a tendency for Siskel's detractors to label him an elitist. A glance at the movies he loved throughout
But the record speaks of another critic, one who harbored guilty pleasures and shared them with his audience. In 1992, the Saturday Night Live comedy Wayne's World and the Steven Seagal flick Under Siege graced his 10 Best of the Year list. In 1990, Dances With Wolves swept the Oscars, but Siskel couldn't get enough of Bruce Willis' bone-crushing theatrics in Die Hard 2, which ranked higher on his year-end list. Last year, he campaigned long and hard for a Best Actress nomination for Demi Moore's performance in G.I.Jane.
his career — My Dinner with Andre, The Ice Storm, The Last Emperor, among others — seems to bear that out. To many viewers (and certainly many movie stars), Siskel came across as stuffy, negative and disagreeable, never hesitating to roast the latest Hollywood action movie. John Carpenter's 1988 science fiction film They Live even contains a memorable sequence in which Siskel and Ebert are exposed as faceless aliens bent on brainwashing the public.
I remember an interview with Siskel from a few years back when he said that Saturday Night Fever should be the movie shown on a continuous loop in heaven. Ebert had picked Citizen Kane. Famously, Siskel purchased John Travolta's trademark disco outfit and later sold it at an auction for $145,000.
Siskel's complaints about Hollywood are echoed by many of his colleagues. He wondered aloud why studios poured millions of dollars into special effects but no effort into intelligent scripts. It pained him to see the likes of Jim Carrey and Adam Sandler enjoying box-office glory, while more deserving stars toiled in obscurity.
Last month, in compiling his year-end report, Siskel excitedly spoke of the advances made in special effects technology and how they would impact the production of movies.
"Indeed, as we move toward a cinematic centenary, what we shall see is truly, more than ever, limited only by the imagination of a filmmaker," he wrote. "Most limits are off now."
For Siskel, it was never a case of "This movie sucks." It was, "This movie didn't work, and here's what they should have done to make it better." He looked ahead, challenging artists to push themselves into uncharted terrain. In that, he fulfilled his duty to his readers and to the art form he loved.
Goodbye, Gene. I'll save you the aisle seat.

An ability to budget funds should be well received by a prospective employer. This is a skill honed to perfection by any poor college student who wants to enjoy simple pleasures like eating, as well as purchasing necessities such as smooth jazz CDs. I believe that the 73 cents left in my checking account at the end of each month shows just how thoroughly my money works for me.
Oh well, I suppose it's always a good idea to take an account of one's
While I may have taken a few liberties
I also am aware of the other options out there. Should some executive have a young daughter who is perhaps seeking a beau, I would be more than willing to worm my way into middle management by marrying her. I saw it in a movie once, so I'm sure that it will work.
with my class schedule during the last couple of years. I think that my attendance record should stand up well under any employer's scrutiny. Just remember, it's all about perspective. The percentage of days I show up for class is phenomenal if you compare them to, say, somebody who doesn't attend the University of Kansas. Yeah, just see how many times that person showed up to my classes, and I look like the Iron Man.
Big smile. I'll be sure to practice that look that says, "I don't necessarily need this job, but it is the only thing between sustenance and hocking this suit for a few loaves of bread."
Of course, I can't rest on my laurels alone. Once I'm in the door, I assume I will need more than my glowing personality and collection of obscene yet oddly humorous limericks to get by. I am fully prepared to act like I care about whatever job I may be offered.
"Yes, sir, I believe your company can provide me with the true calling I've always searched for in life. Namely, a calling that will enable me to eat something other than a pasta product every once in a while."
Additionally, if there happen to be any women out there majoring in engineering, pharmacy, law or anything else that would actually lead to a lucrative career. I understand the amount of time needed to succeed at these jobs. The stress involved in starting outside relationships is just another unneeded obstacle, and I'm willing to help. I have no qualms about being a kept man.
Should all of my preparation still fail to land me a meaningful place in society's social structure, I suppose I can do what any other truly enlightened individual would do and become a grad student.
We'll see what the loan committee thinks about that, eh?

Holdover senators retained
By Nadia Mustafa
Kennedy staff writer
Student Senate committees voted last night to maintain the position of holdover senator, and voted against paying for new KUID readers for Senate elections in April.
The finance committee voted in favor of providing $1,920 to operate the polling sites at Gertrude Sellars Pearson-Corbin Hall and Ekdahl Dining Commons, but committee members did not feel that students should have to pay for renting magnetic-strip readers for the elections.
Kansan staff writer
Aravind Muthukrishnan, Nunemaker Hall senator, said that because students did not have much input in the administration-initiated new KUID system, the University should pay for the KUID readers.
"It's kind of like an unfunded mandate," he said. "Students end up paying for a lot more of the burden. They shouldn't have to pay for something they didn't ask for."
Amanda Weinberg, elections commission chairwoman, said the University was willing to consider funding a portion of the cost for KUID readers.
But Jennifer Watkins, elections commissioner, said the administration would not pay for the KUID readers this year.
The elections commission will receive the polling site funds if the full Senate passes the bill next Wednesday.
The student rights committee vote 9-11 against a bill that would have eliminated the position of holdova senator.
The committee debated whether holdover senators, three seats appointed by the previous year's Senate for the purpose of historical knowledge, were representative and democratic because they were not popularly elected by the student body.
Tiffany Seeman, Panhellenic senator, said the position of holder senator was advantageous because it did not cater to the interests of a specific constituency, but to the whole student body. She said that Senate should not attempt to mimic higher governmental institutions in achieving full democracy.
"We pretend like we're the U.S. Senate, but we're not," Seeman said. "We're just a student senate."
Holly Krebs, holdover senator and the bill's co-sponsor, said the position of holdover senator was unrepresentative.
"These seats do not fit into the scheme of trying to make Senate more representative," she said. "Representation through popular elec
tions is far better than the representation we assume we get through hold over senators."
During the debate, some senators veered from the issue of holdover senators and began discussing problems with the Senate system.
Maria Abatajoglou, College of Liberal Arts and Sciences senator, said that she believed in democracy but that she also believed in reality. She said students were not aware of the issues and could not make an educated decision in Senate elections.
841-PLAY
1029 Massachusetts
Matt Bradshaw, fine arts senator, said he agreed that elections were often popularity contests, but it would be paternalistic if Senate decided who served as student representatives.
"I believe in educated democracy, and we don't have it at this university," she said. "So it helps to have a handful of people that can be the leaders of the pack. The flaw in the system is not the holdover senators, it is all the other seats."
"It would be better if campaigns were issue-driven and not for where a candidate lives or how flashy they are," he said. "This is not limited to KU, but we should do our part to try to fix it."
Krebs said the bill's sponsors would present the bill again next year as a fourth consecutive attempt.

Student leadership group formed at KU
Bv Nadia Mustafa
Kansan staff writer
Two students are attempting to unite student organizations by forming the first student leadership organization at KU.
Jacob Eastman, Lawrence sophomore and Jeff Geurts, Oklahoma City, Okla., freshman, registered a new organization called KU Lead at the Organizations and Leadership Center this semester.
Eastman, KU Lead co-president, said that he and Geurts wanted to initiate the group after attending Leadershape, a leadership conference sponsored by the Organizations and Leadership Center, in January.
"KU does not have a student leadership organization," he said. "The whole purpose is to promote existing leadership opportunities through student involvement and have a central point to help other student organizations network."
Eastman said that 35 students had applied to be on the organization's executive board. The co-presidents will be establishing the executive board and recruiting membership during the next two weeks.
He said that individual membership was open to any students who thought leadership issues were important
"For the executive board, we need people who are extremely motivated, good public speakers and want to get in on something that's going to be huge," Eastman said.
who taught leadership issues were important. Eastman said that KU Lead had five major goals for the semester. The first was to create a 45-minute presentation that would be presented to freshmen and new students in living organizations and in introductory courses. The presentation would focus on how leadership develops through student involvement.
Another goal was to construct an online resource database for organizations and individuals to get information about opportunities for involvement and leadership development programs.
A third goal was to set up a community-based calendar to which student organizations could post information about campuswide events through e-mail, the Internet and campus mail.
Also, KU Lead wanted to establish an executive board training committee that emphasized leadership development within existing organizations.
A final goal was to host a monthly forum for officers of student organizations to network and discuss common problems.
Beth Harralson, Lawrence sophomore, applied for the position of KU Lead secretary. She said that she wanted to network and expand her horizons.
"Most of the people who are going to be on it are major people who have influence over students and the University," Harralson said. "I want to get some creative influence. Everyone joining together like that can give great leadership to the University."
Aaron Quisenberry, assistant director of the Organizations and Leadership Center, said that Leadershape played a major role in the formation of KU Lead.
KU Lead will conduct interviews for executive board members Sunday and Monday. Interested students should e-mail Eastman at hokub@ukans.edu by Friday.
"Students come back and they're fired up and ready to save the world," Quisenberry said. "They're a new group with full energy. They don't know where they're going yet, but they're in full stride."

The plush seats and movie screens will be moving out of Hillcrest Theaters, 925 Iowa St., to make room for Stairmasters and weight machines.
Total Fitness finalizing move
Total Fitness Athletic Center, 2108 W.27th St., plans to move into the building this spring and wants to sign a lease for the property this week.
Hillcrest Theaters, which is owned by Raney Properties L.P., had been leased and operated by Hollywood Theaters, which stopped showing movies at that location last summer.
He had hoped to find a small movie theater company to occupy the space, he said.
Isaac Stallworth, a managing partner for Raney, said he expected to agree on leasing the theater to Total Fitness this week.
"The problem is that these supertheaters are taking over the market," Stallworth said. " (A movie theater company) would have been our preference, but it didn't work out like that."
But for Total Fitness, the old Hillcrest building is a perfect fit.
"We decided to move to the Hillcrest location because that property worked out in terms of pricing," Tuley said. "We would have done it a year ago if we could have."
Martin Tuley, president of Total Fitness, said the company had been looking for a bigger facility for the last 18 months.
Tuley said he hoped to begin renovation of the building within two weeks. The gym plans to open at its new location May 1.
"We just have to get city permits for everything." Tulley said.
The 19,000 square-foot Hillcrest Theaters building will double the size of Total Fitness, making room for new facilities.
"The two most obvious changes will be the addition of two basketball courts," Tuley said. "We will also build a wellness classroom."
Tuley said classes would teach members about everything from nutrition to how to stop smoking.
Autumn Metzler, Kansas City, Mo., junior, said that she thought wellness classes were a good idea for college students.
She said she was excited that Total

Lauryn Hill breaks Grammy record
By Beth Harris
The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — This was the year the Grammys invited rap music to the party—and it took charge.
Lauryn Hill, who seamlessly melded rap, soul and even an old Frankie Valli song on her groundbreaking solo debut, "The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," broke a record for female artists after winning five Grammy Awards last night.
"Misededucation" was named best album and she was honored as best new artist — the first time the staid awards show gave any of its four major awards to a rapper.
"This is so amazing ... this is crazy because it's hip-hop music," she said as she picked up the trophy for best album.
The *Titanic* song, "My Heart Will Go On," won Grammys for song and record of the year. The song had one big advantage: Hill wasn't nominated in those categories.
Hill won best rhythm and blues album and her hit song, "Doo Wop (That Thing)," won best R&B song and best R&B vocal performance. Her best new artist win was something of a misnomer because she has won two past Grammys with the Fugees.
Madonna, now 40, won her first musical Grammys, including best pop album for her excursion into electronica, "Ray of Light." She also won best dance recording and best short form music video.
Shania Twain, Stevie Wonder, the Dixie Chicks and the Brian Setzer Orchestra each were double winners.
"My Heart Will Go On" also won the female pop vocal for Celine Dion and as best song written for a motion picture or television.
Actor-rapper Will Smith won best rap song for his good-natured "Gettin' Jiggy Wit It."
In another rap category, Jay-Z's "Vol. 2 ... Hard Knock Life" won best album. The Beastie Boys won duo or
group performance for "Intergalactic."
In his 12th Grammy victory of the 1990s, Eric Clapton won male pop vocal for "My Father's Eyes."
Crow won best rock album for "The Globe Sessions" and paid tribute to A&M Records, which was just swallowed in a corporate merzer.
The Dixie Chicks" "Wide Open Spaces" was an upset winner for best country album against the better-known Garth Brooks and Twain.
"You're Still the One" won best country song for Twain and husband Robert John "Mutt" Lange, and female country vocal performance for Twain. Vince Gill won best male country vocal performance for "If You Ever Have Forever in Mind."
Best female rock vocal performance went to Alanis Morissette for "Uninvited."
The Setzer Orchestra, riding the swing revival, captured two pop honors, performance by a duo or group and instrumental performance.

Pride leads team in overtime win
By Sam Mellinger Kansan sportswriter
An All-American candidate usually is expected to step up when her team needs her, and that's exactly what Lynn Pride did.
Pride scored all but two of her game-high 28 points after halftime and led a late comeback by the Kansas women's basketball team in its 79-72 overtime win last night at Oklahoma State.
Pride was just one of four at intermission, but hit 10 of 11 shots after the break and scored eight points in overtime. The junior also had six rebounds and three steals to off-set six turnovers.
"Lynn does everything," said Kansas coach Marian Washington. "I just think she's a great player. She plays both ends of the court...she made the big shots for us; I'm just really pleased."
Defensively, Pride was assigned to guard Oklahoma State's Jennifer Crow after it became apparent that the All-Big 12 Conference guard was the Cowgirls' main offensive threat.
Crow finished with 20 points, including eight of nine free throws.
Kansas trailed 18-6 early in the first half, and by as much as 11 in the second half, before unleashing a comeback fueled by an 11-4 run.
With the score tied and 6.5 seconds left in regulation, Kansas put the ball in Pride's hands, but she was whistled for traveling as time expired.
Once overtime started, Kansas showed why it was ranked No. 22 as the Jayhawks led throughout and outscored Oklahoma State 16-9. The
Cowgirls trailed by just one, 73-72, with about 30 seconds left, but Kansas scored the last six points on free throws and secured the road win.
"It's always a good win when you win on the road, and it's definitely a good win when you beat Oklahoma State," Washington said. "They're a little bit down this year, but I feel like they're always a team that's very capable."
Nakia Sanford scored 18 points and led the Jayhawks with nine rebounds. Brooke Reves added 16 points.
Kansas entered the game as the Big 12's worst free-throw shooting team (63 percent) but hit 25 of 28 against Oklahoma State. Reeves (36 percent), Sanford (46 percent) and Jennifer Jackson (57 percent) have been particularly bad at the line this season but were 18 of 19 last night.
"The difference in the ball game was that they shot free throws better than they have all year long," said Oklahoma State coach Dick Halterman. "We missed some crucial free throws as well. We played hard enough to win, but we missed some shots and didn't come up with the stop at the right time."
Kansas improved to 21-7 overall and 11-4 in the Big 12, while Oklahoma State dropped to 12-13 and 4-11.
"We let it slip away from us," said Jessica Spinner, who scored 12 points for the Cowgirls. "We came back, but we just couldn't stop Lynn Pride from going on the baseline and killing us with lauvns."
Kansas will play its final regular season game at 3 p.m. Saturday in Kansas State.

After the season's gone
Jerod Haase finds success in post-basketball career
COLUMBIA
By Torrie Jones Kansan sportswriter
The road that leads most players to the legendary hardwood of Allen Fieldhouse is paved with hard work, discipline and a rigorous practice regiment. And as conventional wisdom states, hard work is well rewarded — a fact illustrated by the luxuries afforded to the Kansas men's basketball teams.
Jerod Haase cuts a piece of the net after a 1997 tournament game. Haase had success off-court recently, publishing both a book and workout video. Kanas file photo
Jerod Haase reaped the benefits given to players and enjoyed immense popu-
family among Kansas basketball fans because of his role in the Kansas men's basketball nucleus that won three conference championships and compiled an 88-13 record.
Haase: Is working on his degree in business
"J er o d brought a great deal of intensity and intelligence to the floor, as well as preparation and dedication," said Matt Doherty, assistant coach.
Haase finished his Kansas career fourth in three-point field goals, sixth in steals and ninth on the school's all-time assist list.
"Being named to GTE was my greatest personal achievement, because it incorporated both academics and athletics." Haase said.
Haase's on-court savvy spilled over into the classroom as well. He was named to the Academic All-Conference team three times, and in 1997 he was named to the GTE All-American Academic team.
Although many former Jayhawks continue playing for professional teams, others, including Haase, quietly continue their education or enter the job market after they've hung up their crimson and blue jerseys.
Haase set up his first post-basket.
ball career move during his senior year by keeping memoirs of his final season of eligibility and turned a year of memories into the popular book, "Floor Burns", that has gone to press five times.
"The idea wasn't to make a successful book, but to make a documentation of my senior year because I knew it would be something special," Haase said. "When I'm old, it's something to show the grandchildren."
The grandchildren also will be able to watch Grandpa Jerod in his work out video: Working Toward the Next Level.
Haase is working on his master's degree in business by day and occupying many of his nights by playing intramural basketball at Robinson. Though he is keeping his options open, Haase is interested in coaching basketball on the collegiate level.
The 30-minute video is split into six five-minute segments that concentrate on specific fundamentals of a solid off-season workout.
"Jerod showed that he had great perseverance and a strong sense of how to work with people while playing." Doherty said.

Kansas players might not land first-team spot for All-Big 12
Chenowith needs a little luck to land spot in top group
By Kevin C. Wilson
Kansas sports writers
Kansan sportswriter
When the Big 12 all-conference teams are announced March 2, don't be surprised if the Kansas Jayhawks fail to land a single player on the first team.
If the voting goes as expected, it would be the first time since the 1993-94 season that the Jayhawks would not have a first-team all-conference selection. Despite scoring 49 points in the last two games and leading the Big 12's second-ranked team in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots, Kansas center Eric Chenowith will be hard-pressed to garner one of the top-five slots.
"He's probably the most overlooked big-man in the
league, Kansas coach Roy Williams said Tuesday night on his weekly radio show. "Everybody talks about (Texas)' Chris Mihm and (Nebraska's) Venson Hamilton and they really leave Eric out."
The 7-foot sophomore's statistics in league play compare favorably to that of Mihm and Hamilton. Although the Cornhusker center ranks second in the Big 12 in scoring with 17.9 points in game, while
Williams has a point.
T
Williams: Says
Chenowith may be
overlooked
Mihm's 14.1 ppg are 13th and 14th respectively, the trio is ranked 1-2-3 in rebounding and blocked shots. Mihm pulls down a conference best 11.5 rebounds per game, while Hamilton and Chenowith are close behind with 11.0 and 10.9 respectively. All three centers have blocked 39 shots in league play, but Chenowith's have come in 15 games, while the other two have recorded theirs in 14 games.
One reason why Chenowith might not be included as a first-team selection is his sporadic play in the Big 12.
Before the Oklahoma game, he had struggled through a five-game slump in which he averaged 10.6 points, shot a horrific 37.7 percent from the field and an equally appalling 52.2 percent from the free throw line.

Commentary
Fans' spirit contributes to special Senior Night
The spectacle at Allen Fieldhouse Monday night was my first Senior-Night experience at Kansas because last year I failed to pick up my tickets for the finale against Oklahoma. I wasn't prepared for what I saw.
The fieldhouse pulsed with energy
As Ryan Robertson, T. J. Pugh, Jelani Janisse and Chris Martin said their goodbyes to the Allen Fieldhouse faithful, I realized just how powerful the atmosphere of Kansas basketball can be. All of these was paused with energy
The renthouse pu throughout the first half and part of the second. Then, as the Cowboys began to claw their way back into the contest, the ghosts of Jayhawks past began to stir.
As Oklahoma State pushed the Kansas defense to its limits, the stands began to rumble. The electricity of the student section had been unwavering all season, but
D.J.

on Monday, it was spreading. The much-maligned alumni and season-ticket holders even showed some intensity for the first time this year. The stands erupted and the rafters quaked as something amazing happened. For the first time in 1999, the "Phog" descended on Allen Fieldhouse in a deafening storm of fan support that exploded all over Eddie Sutton's Cowboys.
Everywhere you looked, there was a story. The seniors were playing their last-ever game in Lawrence, and the Hawks were trying to make their way into the 64-team NCAA tournament field.
But what about the alumni? Student opinion had turned against them because of their late-game tendency to scatter like rats from a sinking ship. For the fourth year in a row, a capacity crowd of 16,300 witnessed all of Senior Night. Hopefully, something more than the seniors' farewell kept them in the stands. Regardless, they were out in force and staved until it was finished.
Then there was Ryan Robertson's performance. Yes, he only hit two of 10 shots from the floor, but he was solid when it counted. Robertson put up a desperation three-pointer just as the clock expired in overtime. He was fouled by the Cowboys' Adrian Peterson, Granted, Robertson did admit that he put a little extra oomph into it to draw the foul, but who wouldn't in that situation?
With no time on the clock, Robertson stepped to the line and ended his final game on James Neaismith Court in storybook fashion. You just can't write better scripts than that, folks. As I watched Robertson calmly, coolly nail the shot and run across the court in celebration, only one word came to mind: Jordanesque.
The shorts on-backwards incident, a less-memorable moment among many Monday night, drew the attention of Kansas fans soon after the opening tip. Oklahoma State's Doug Gottlieb went through warmups, introductions, and more than seven minutes of the first half with his shorts on backwards. The crowd chanted repeatedly, "Shorts on backwards" until the Cowboys called timeout at the 12:40 mark, allowing Gottlieb to rectify the problem. Robertson called it the most annoying chant he'd ever heard. But fans weren't the only ones that noticed the guard's fashion faux pas. ESPN's SportsCenter had plenty of footage that just might land Gottlieb in the next edition of "Plays of the Week."
The senior speeches were just as memorable to me as the game itself, if not more so. Janisse, Pugh and Robertson all gave great speeches, but Chris Martin's was my personal favorite.
Martin grew up dreaming of someday donning the crimson and blue to represent the University of Kansas against the best the nation had to offer.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday (Feb. 25). This could be a really fabulous year for you. You should count your blessings in March, and your good deeds, too. In April, your work brings great bounty. You're very lucky in love in July, and career goals look attainable in August. A romantic vacation in November is appropriate, and by December, you could make improvements to your home. Friends help you increase your income even more around late January or February.
Aries: Today is a 5
You've got a grand trine in water signs, which brings out your gentle, nurturing light. It seems as if every-body's being really wimpy. A little of that goes a really long way with you, but today, try to be nice. It'll be good for you.
Taurus: Today is an 8
Some things you tried yesterday that didn't work will go smoothly now. You didn't really waste that time. Isn't it strange the way that happens? Well, no point in wondering about why. Just go ahead and push while you've got the advantage.
Gemini: Today is a 5
You might get a raise today. You've probably already done the work to establish yourself as an expert in the field. Now, all you need to do is let other people know that you want to be rewarded. You might even get a standing ovation for tooting your own horn.
Cancer: Today is a 9
Yesterday was a struggle, but today should go smoothly. Looks like you've set things up to take advantage of an opportunity. You not only have the talent necessary, but you also have friends in high places. One in particular is going to give you a boost that could push you over the top.
Leo: Today is a 5
Looks as if quite a bit of money could be riding on how you handle a tough situation. Politeness is almost worth more than accuracy right now. The positive impression you make now could benefit you in more ways than you can imagine.
Virgo: Today is a 9
Libra: Today is a 5
You hardly ever play hooky, but today the temptation is great. Conditions are perfect for playing, and a new game is suggested. You could turn out to be a natural at something you've never done before.
Scorpio: Today is a 10
This is a good day to advance in your career, and if you're going to do it, be nice. Being pleasant will get you more points than just about anything else. This can't be phony niceness, either. It's got to be genuine.
Saaittarius: Today is a 6
Today your bread will land buttered side up. You'll find a parking spot right in front of the store, and the cop behind you on the freeway is actually after the guy in front of you. Think of something magnificent you want to achieve, and make a start on it.
Capricorn: Today is a 9
Money is not a topic you like to have your head full of, but every once in a while you have to think about it. You have skills that are definitely marketable. There's an opportunity out there; all you have to do is find it.
Today's focus is on the areas of partnership, friendship and education. Your relationships can help you do your job better. Somebody out there would really like to play with you, and it would make your life easier to let that happen.
Aquarius: Today is a 5
You could get more money for the work you do, especially if you put together a good case. You'll have to prove to the boss that you're generating income and you require a larger percentage. The celestial influences are in your favor.
C
Pisces: Today is a 10
This is one of your best days all year. You've got luck in love, travel and self-esteem. You're looking good, feeling great, saying the right thing at the right time, doing everything perfectly. You're wise, generous, warm, loving, considerate, thoughtful. You know what else? You're appreciated. Bask in it.

Royals first baseman considers new contract
Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment purposes only.
HAINES CITY, Fla. — The Royals youth movement could mean first baseman Jeff King's no-trade contract with Kansas City could change into a yes-trade contract this spring.
"It would have to be the right situation," King said Tuesday at the Royals' training camp. "There are a handful of teams I'd consider going to, and it seems like those teams are set at first base."
The Royals are busy trying to purge the roster of veteran players with high-dollar contracts as the emphasis continues on rebuilding through low-dollar younger players.
SCorpion
"That would be a factor, for sure," King said. "Why get traded to another team that you estimate is not going to be any better or any worse?"
Pitcher Kevin Appier expressed eagerness Monday to be traded to a contending club.
"I won't say anything is set in stone, but this might be my last year," he said.
King is also considering retirement after this season.

The newspaper, citing unidentified sources, said Dolan's group made the offer for 5 1/2 of Schott's 6 1/2 shares, or about one-third of the club. Dolan's group has executed a purchase agreement with Schott, the newspaper reported, citing the unidentified sources.

The National League is aware of the proposed deal, spokeswoman Katy Feeney said yesterday in New York. The league will not take action until limited owners of the Reds first decide whether to exercise their right to match the Dolan group's offer, Feeney said.

KU women's golf starts new season; 'best team' in years
By Brad Hallier Kanson sportswriter
They're young,but talented.
They're young, but talented. The 1998-99 Kansas women's golf team is the best team coach Jerry Waugh has fielded in his seven years as coach, he said. The team will begin its spring schedule today in Gainesville, Fla., at the Suntrust Lady Gator Invitational. The University of Florida will serve as the host.
"Most teams have been playing all winter, and there is normally a good field at this tournament." Waugh said. "We've had good weather to practice outside, unlike in the past. Normally, when you hit golf balls into a net at Anschutz, you don't get much out of that. But by being outside,
this team will be farther along than normal." Waugh said that he had selected his top-five golfers for the tournament. Juniors Susan Tessary and Carrie Padden, sophomore Ashley Lowery, freshman Ashley Bishop and senior Mandy Munsch will represent the Jayhawks in Florida this week.

"This year's team is the best team, scores-wise, since I've been here," Waugh said. "There's a lot of pride of coaching in that the program is better than when you started."
Munsch, who is Kansas' only senior, had shoulder surgery last summer and competed in only three tournaments last fall. However, her placement improved with each tournament, and she ended the fall season with a 24th-place finish at the Diet Coke-Roadrunner Invitational.

herself as the only leader of the team.
"We all take our own leadership roles, so I don't feel any other pressure," she said. "We just want to have fun this year, and a top-five finish at the Big 12 meet would be really nice."
Tessary is the Jayhawks' top returning player from the 1997-98 season. She had three Top-25 finishes in the fall, including an 11th-place finish at the Chip-N-Club Invitational, a tournament where she shot a three-round career-lcw 227. She also finished 23rd at the Big 12 Preview.
While the Jayhawks are an improved team from last year's ninth-place finish at the Big 12 Championships. Waugh said that other teams are improving as well.
"Golf has been pretty slow at developing here, but it has been a steady progress," he said. "Women's golf is continuing to improve. The pool of players is much stronger now. Our progress in the conference is slow because everyone is getting better, too.
"But I believe that we can compete in the top-half of the conference, and if we can do that, we've done a good job." Waugh said.

Chenowith has outside chance at All-Big 12 first-team selection
Continued from page 1B
In the last two games however, Chenwith has averaged an amazing 24.5 points, shot 62 percent from the field and connected on 13-of-15 free throws for 86.6 percent. He was especially impressive in Monday night's 67-66 win against Oklahoma, in which he joined four Kansas seniors in the starting line-up.
LAKERS
Chenowith responded by tying a career high with 25 points, including six in the Jayhawk's first overtime of the season, and grabbing seven rebounds.
it was so special out there," Chenowith said. "Just walking out there with those four seniors and starting with them was one of the proudest moments of my career. It was the perfect night for me."
"Eric had such a big night," Kansas senior Ryan Robertson said. "For him to step up like that was great. Coach Williams always says I want everybody else to make this night special for the seniors." I could tell that Eric really took that to heart. He was sensational."
Chenowith said that it was important to him to help the seniors walk off the home floor for the last time with a victory.

"I really did want to make sure that these seniors went out the right way," Chenwith said. "They've had so many special nights here before, and it wouldn't be the same if we lost. I am just so happy for them, and I couldn't have asked for anything more."
Despite his recent offensive explosion, Chenowith said that he has done nothing to alter his routine.
"I've just been getting some open looks and hitting some easy shots," Chenowith said. "I come to the gym each night with the same attitude and the same enthusiasm and sometimes they fall for me and sometimes they don't."
Williams said that although his blossoming center has excelled in the last two games, Chenowith's potential remains unlimited.

"I would go to the games and just dream of playing on this court," Martin said in the basketball media guide. He played at Cornell College in Iowa and then at Johnson County Community College before transferring to Kansas. After outperforming 61 other students in open tryouts last winter, he became a role model to anyone that ever has dared to dream big dreams.
Kansas basketball and its fans were on display in front of a national audience that night. The game was the 12th capacity crowd in 13 home games for the Hawks. The student crowd, decked out in its best Jayhawk finery and wielding signs supporting the boys, was primed and ready for what turned out to be a classic conference tilt. The Kansas fans screamed until their faces turned crimson and blue from the strain. People, you were every bit as rowdy and raucous as the Cameron Crazies at Duke, if not more. I'm proud of you.
"It's because of you guys that I got to live my dream," he said as he looked at his teammates Monday night. After making his way into one of the most high-profile and selective basketball programs in America, Martin is an inspiration to

Oklahoma 'Hawk relives past week; praises Robertson's acting performance
As I look out the window, gazing at the beautiful afternoon weather, rocking out to the new Roots album, and thinking about my Russian Foreign Policy paper, I give you my thoughts on the week that was...
Credit where credit is due:
Once again, the Kansas men's basketball
basketball
A & M
Harley Rattiff sports@kansan.com
team has spoiled an opportunity for me to shamelessly promote the Okla homa Sooners.
I'm sure you'll shed a tear.
But, as much as the Jayhawks 60-50 win at the
Lloyd Noble Center pained me to watch (and watching it with six wild Kansas fans, it pained me a lot). I have to give Roy's boys their due.
What most impressed me was the way the Kansas players handled themselves. They played with poise and confidence, turning in one of their the most complete performances of the season. Defensively, the Jayhawks were at the top of their game. Kansas looked like a team that had more than a few "big games" under its belt.
The Sooners, on the other hand, just seemed thrilled to be there.
- The Lakers seem to be on television every night.
Kansan columnist Harley Ratliff and Sacramento Kings rookie guard Jason Williams. Is it any coincidence that you have never seen them in the same place at the same time?
Think about it.
Random observation: If you ever get a chance to go to Mardi Gras, one piece of sound advice: No matter how drunk you are.
Speaking of Jason Williams (seriously this time): This has to be the first time in the history of the NBA that you hear fans clamoring for Kings' highlights.
no matter how hungry you are, no matter how much you are tempted, stay away from the street jambalaya. Far away.
A new press box was long overdue. If Terry Allen ever is going to build a winner, he needs the necessary tool to compete. And that means quality facilities that attract quality recruits.
The next step would be to rip up the balding rug that covers the stadium's floor. There is nothing worse than watching football games on turf. A grass surface would improve the stadium significantly.
- Credit where credit is due, part II:
One word: dysentery
It's nice to see the progress being made on Memorial Stadium.
Is it too late for any additional Oscar nominations?
It's too bad, because Ryan Robertson would be an odds-on favorite for "Best Actor."
His last-second performance Monday night against Oklahoma State was absolutely mesmerizing. I mean, not only did he manage to fool thousands of Jayhawk faithful, but he hoodwinked the refs as well. For some reason, people seem to think that Robertson got fouled.
(Before you start getting red in the face, and breathing sporadically, let me preface my next statement: I am not an Oklahoma State fan. I do not root for the Cowboys. I did not want them to beat KU. I am just giving you my honest opinion. Thank you.)
And a bad call.
MIDDLEBURG COLLEGE
Something tells me Robertson never even planned on shooting that ball. As soon as an Oklahoma State player got close, he was going to give it the oil' flailing arms routine and see how far it got him. We've all seen it before.
It was a smart play. A very smart play.
But I can't blame Robertson for trying to do what was best for his team.

DOG TRAINING TIPS
Sandy Butler, author of "Train Your Dog in One Hour," offers these simple tips for training a dog:
Use only two words — the dog's name and a command.
Make eye contact with the dog as much as possible.
Never hit the dog for any reason.
Never rub a dog's nose in feces or urine.
Never use a choke collar on a dog.
Trainer demonstrates the ease of discipline at Borders Books and Music

Is it possible to teach an old dog new tricks?
is it possible to teach an old dog new tricks?
Absolutely, said Sandy Butler, author of "Train Your Dog in One Hour," who signed books and demonstrated her obedience training techniques last night at Borders Books and Music, 700 New Hamshire St., to about 30 people.

Butler, who always has been a dog lover, has no expert training in handling animals. She gained experience through her childhood ownership of an Irish Setter.

She developed a talent for training dogs after owning a candy store in Colorado that was next door to an animal shelter. She said that frustrated dog owners often would ask her to watch their pets until the shelter opened in the morning.
Butler offered to train the dogs in one hour or less if the owners promised to keep the animals rather than leave them at the shelter.

Word began to spread that she was good, and about 20 years ago, a new career was born.
Butler has been interviewed on radio programs across the nation about how to train dogs. She noticed that she tended to receive the same questions, so she produced two videotapes, which demonstrate her dog training methods.
the training every step of the way," she said.
She said that the keys to training a dog were clarity, conciseness and consistency.
All dogs will test their owners, she said. It is up to the owners to speak to dogs in a way that they will understand and will respond to.
Although dogs will test their owners, she said that they were eager to please.
"Dogs want to do what we want them to do more than anything in the world," Butler said. "They just don't know what that is. We have to show ___.
"A dog will try to be alpha if you let them," Butler said, referring to how a dog wants to be in control. "They're always testing the pack order."
She said that her training methods were so simple that even a 5-year-old child could use them.
"Children need to be involved with
them."
She said that showing them involved two words — the dog's name and the command. Then, she said, when the dog obeyed the command, the owner should praise it lavisily.
"Hitting a dog just teaches it fear." she said.
Owners also need to use body language to physically show the dog what to do. She emphasized that owners always should be positive with their dogs, and never hit them - even when they leave surprises indoors
The dog that Butler trained at the book signing belonged to a store employee, said Susan DePrenger, community relations coordinator for Borders.
Maggie Wood, Borders employee, volunteered her dog,
Daisy, because she wanted her dog to receive some obedience training.
She said that Butler's training methods were good for Daisy, who was taught to sit, stand and stay.
"I know this works," Wood said. "You just have to do it. Training a dog isn't that hard." Stacy Hoobler, an employee at the Lawrence

"I've used the two-word method to train all my dogs," Hoobler said. "It just makes sense."
Although Allison Bernard, Overland Park senior, did not go to Butler's dog training demonstration, she said that she used a similar method of obedience training for her dog, Jake. Bernard's mother used to train dogs.
Humane Society, said she had used similar techniques.
"The shorter the command, the more likely the dog is to remember it," Bernard said.

Engineering exposition today at Learned Hall
If you've ever wondered how a computer works or what the mechanic is saying about your car's broken engine, you might get your questions answered today at Engineering Expo '99 at Learned Hall.
The free all-day event, called "Ideas in Motion," will feature tours of KU engineering labs, exhibits, activities and student displays.
Forrest Hoglund, KU alumnus and chairman of Enron Oil and Gas Company, will open the exposition with a 3:00 a.m. speech at the Lied Center.
Hoglund, a Lawrence native, is scheduled to talk about how his experiences as a KU baseball player and mechanical engineer prepared him to be an executive in the oil industry.
Exhibits will be open from 10:30 a.m to 5 p.m. in Learned Hall. Topiced topics will include robotics, computer e-mail, computer modeling programs, alternative fuel vehicles, automobile engine tests and chemistry shows.

Weapons from Fort Riley to be displayed at KU
Some heavy artillery will be coming to the campus today, but there won't be an invasion.
A howitzer, a cannon that fires a shell on a high arc at a close target, will be in front of Learned Hall today.
Joining the cannon will be an ammunition vehicle, also known as a Faasue, and a military Humvee. No actual ammunition will be brought.
The howitzer is being brought by the 127th Field Artillery Unit of the Army National Guard, based in Fort Riley.
Rod Galino, Shawnee senior, is a member of the KU ROTC program and the unit that is bringing the weaponry.
"it's just basically to attract attention," he said.
Gallino said no recruitment would take place.
Student named finalist for Mellon Fellowship
Anna Vancleave, Overland Park senior, has been selected as a finalist for an Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship in Humanistic Studies.
Mary Klayer, assistant director of the University Honors Program, said the Mellon scholarship was well known.
"Its probably the most prestigious scholarship for the humanities for graduate school," she said.
There are 80 fellowships awarded each year, each of which pays $14,500 for one year of graduate school.
Vancleave was also a finalist for a Rhodes Fellowship but was not awarded a scholarship in that competition.
Vancleave will be interviewed today in Chicago and will find out if she has won a fellowship March 29, Klayer said.
USA Today recognizes senior on academic team
Karen Isley, SyLVania, Ohio senior, has been named honorable mention in the USA Today All-USA College Academic Team competition.
Isley was one of 120 students selected for an award in the competition. Three teams of 20 each were selected, and 60 more college students were chosen for honorable mention. Nationwide, 984 students were nominated.
The competition, now in its 10th year, bases selection on grades, activities, leadership, and public service.
Students who place on the first team receive a trophy and a check for $2,500. All other award winners receive a certificate.
While isley said that she would have liked to win some money, she was surprised to be selected at all.
"It was just an incredible shock," she said.

Fire marshal rules arson not involved in LAC fire
A Feb. 5 fire at the Lawrence Athletic Club, 3201 Mesa Way, was not intentionally set, said Rich Barr, fire marshal with the Lawrence Douglas County Fire and Medical Department.
LAWRENCE
Barr said the fire originated in the men's sauna on the west side of the building.
He said the fire department would do a safety inspection of the building once it ready for reopening.
The fire was most destructive to the older portion of the building because that part did not have fire sprinklers installed.
LAC owner Rich Sells said he would have the club open as soon as new
equipment arrived and the building had been approved by city inspectors.
"The investigation is closed from our perspective," Barr said.
Phone call to police leads to fake ID return
A 19-year-old KU student who originally called the police station for general information ended up turning herself in for possession of a fake Missouri drivers license at 11:59 p.m. Saturday, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The student was told that it would be in her best interest to come to the police department and turn the ID into police. She was cited for unlawful use of a license.
Upon questioning her, police found that she had paid a friend $30 to get her the ID. Wheeler said.
Wheeler said the police would contact the friend, who also is a KU student.
Parking restraint stolen from police on campus
A parking boot that had been placed on a vehicle in Naisimith Hall parking lot because it didn't have a permit was stolen between 8:15 p.m. feb. 17 and 10:30 p.m. feb. 18, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
Two 19-year-old KU students were suspected of using a car jack to lift the car and remove the boot, which was valued at $250. Wheeler said.
Police located the vehicle owner by using license plate information obtained when the parking ticket was issued. A business card left by police at the vehicle owner's Naismith Hall room prompted them to return the boot and pay the ticket, Wheeler said.
Charges against the students were dropped.
Holidome falls victim to credit card scam
More than $8,755 was embezzled from the Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Dr., through a credit card scam between Nov. 5 and Feb. 15, said Sgt. George Wheeler of the Lawrence Police Department.
The theft, which was committed by an employee using the hotel computer, was discovered by internal auditors and reported to police Feb. 16. Wheeler said.
The loss in funds was suffered by the hotel and not its customers, Wheeler said.
A safe at Perkins Restaurant, 1711 West 25th St., was short $2,000 when the restaurant opened Sunday morning, said Sgt. George T. Wheeler.

There was no evidence that the safe had been forced open. Wheeler said

JASPER, Texas — Jurors decided today that John William King should be executed for dragging an African-American man to his death behind a pickup truck, rejecting tearful pleas from the white racist's sickly father to spare his life.
He will become the only white on Texas' death row condemned for killing an African American.
The 11 white jurors and their elected African-American foreman took just under three hours to render the decision, about the same time as they took to find King guilty earlier in the week. They offered a few clues to their deliberations, sending out notes asking to see an 8-inch shank found in King's cell as well as racist letters he sent from prison.
Jurors convicted the 24-year-old King of capital murder Tuesday in the death of James Byrd Jr. last June. After the sentencing decision was read yesterday, Byrd's family members wiped their eyes but declined state District Judge Joe Bob Golden's offer to address King.
Prosecutors asked for the maximum punishment, saying King would be a menace even behind bars.
"By giving Mr. King a life sentence, you're giving him at least 40 years to catch a Black guard, a Black nurse, a Black doctor, a Jewish guard, a Jewish nurse, a Jewish doctor, or anybody else," prosecutor Pat Hardy said to the hurry.
Byrd, 49, died after he was picked up while walking home from a party. After a scuffle, he was pulled nearly three miles behind a pickup truck, chained by his ankles.
Two other men, Shawn Berry, 24, and Lawrence Brewer, 31, await trial for the crime.

Fraternity to adopt alcohol-free stance beginning in 2000
$ \Sigma A E $ to join six other KU groups in the initiative
By Jamie Knodel
Kansan staff writer
Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity will join six other University of Kansas chapters in a new trend among fraternities: alcohol-free housing.
The KU chapter of the national fraternity voluntarily will start the policy beginning in 2000.

president, said KU's chapter wanted to take the position rather than being forced to conform to a rule from others such as alumni, the University or national chapter policy.
Jesse Van Dyke, Sigma Alpha Epsilon president and Minneapolis senior, said he expected that more chapters would start similar policies in the future.
"Fraternities are much like businesses," he said. "They need to change with the times in order to survive in today's rapidly changing world."
Members of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity recently have adopted other policies that reflect the change in attitude.
Before moving into their new house, 1301 West Campus Road, in August, members voted to establish a smoke-free environment. Members also started a policy emphasizing the responsible and limited use of alcohol within the new $3.6 million facility.
Van Dyke said the fraternity members passed the policy for many reasons. These included lower liability insurance costs, increased alumni involvement and recruitment of more and better men.
By making the house alcoholfree, members also believe that the house will be cleaner and safer and that the chapter will present a better image within the campus and community.
Fraternity members said that there would be a transition period during which residents of the house would need to get used to the policy.
"People will respect it," said Chris Baesel, Sigma Alpha Epsilon member and Wichita junior. "It won't be as big of an issue as people think it will be. It's not that big of a deal."
Brendan Woodbury, Interfraternity Council vice president for education and scholarship, said Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity was the only KU chapter to have an alcohol-free policy currently in effect.
In addition to Sigma Alpha Epsilon, Sigma Nu, Delta Upsilon, Phi Gamma Delta, Delta Chi and Phi Delta Theta fraternities also are planning to go alcohol-free.

Senate attempt by Hillary Clinton important for political equality
Historically, major political jobs have been reserved for white males. As the millennium inches closer, it is important for the United States to have more women and minorities run for major political offices.
The movement of women in politics took a gigantic step in the right direction with the news that Elizabeth Dole may run for president in 2000. She would be a legitimate candidate, and her very presence in the election could motivate more women to enter major political elections.
Now, Hillary Rodham Clinton has said that she may run for a New York Senate seat. This also would be another gain for women in politics. Despite the fact that she would be a junior senator, she would have an extremely high profile. It would show that women can successfully have an
An endeavor by the first lady could encourage other women to seek public office.
upper-level political position.
Polls show that Hillary Clinton would win in a head-to-head election with either current mayor Rudolph Giuliani or New York Gov. George Pataki. Although polls do not always tell the full story, it is a positive sign to see that Hillary Clinton could be a strong candidate.
Questions surround the possibility of Hillary Clinton running for Senate. First, the Clintons have astronomical legal bills, rumored to be millions of dollars. Though being a senator is a high-profile job, it pays an annual salary of $133,600. Hillary Clinton most
likely would need to find a higher paying job, as public appearances could pay as much or likely more than work as a full year as a senator.
Also, it is not guaranteed that New York would embrace a candidate who has no true affiliation with the state. New York has very loose laws concerning who can run for Senate, which is the main reason why Clinton would run in New York.
With all the questions, and regardless of how Hillary Clinton's affiliation with her husband would affect her candidacy, the initiative is good for women who have political aspirations. There are not many women who are in high-profile political roles, and there will not be many until some of the barriers are broken. Hillary Clinton's running for senator would be a good start.

Eating disorders demand special help
Today marks the end of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week. Its purpose is to inform the public about disorders and what can be done to help those who are afflicted with it.
For example, a man or woman becomes anorexic when someone feels as if she has no control of his or her life. A person with anorexia believes that if his or her body weight were lower, problems would be alleviated. An anorexic does understand that he or she is too thin. This body-image distortion is hard to change.
Heightened awareness through media has had adverse effects. Disorders became a conversation topic with the success of models such as Kate Moss. More recently, television star Calista Flockhart has been scrutinized. Because of these womens'

role in pop culture, comedians play up the model who eats only two carrots a day.
Anorexia and bulimia are not a joke. However, if media continue to perpetuate this ideal, more women may think that it is a method for weight loss and success.
On college campuses, it is estimated that 15 percent of women have an eating disorder.
cocaine. When a person stops eating, they lose brain cells, muscle tissue and reproductive function. When a person binges and purges, they lose teeth, speech, and they harm internal organs.
No anorexic or bulimic individual is happy, or healthy. If someone knows about a friend who is anorexic or bulimic, the time to take action is now. Eating disorders are as addictive and deadly as
If it continues, they will die.
It may seem hard to tell a friend that they need to get help. Eating disorders are personal, and most anorexics are masters at keeping this disease a secret from everyone. However, others at the University of Kansas who have been in the same place and are on the road to recovery because they got help. Anyone who has questions or seeks help can contact Watkins Health Center at 864-9500 or Counseling and Psychological Services at 864-2277.
Now is the time to help a friend, or yourself, gain control.

sued the gun industry. A New York jury found several gun makers responsible for the accidental shooting.
The decision, although controversial, opens the door to similar lawsuits in other cities such as Chicago, New Orleans and Miami. It's not really important to understand why the decision was controversial or to evaluate its value as precedent for future suits. It is important to ask why the jury blamed the actions of an individual
can why the jury blamed manufacturers for the actions of an individual.
I'll make my point by telling a story. A boy started playing with toy guns (as most boys do), and his parents started to teach him the difference between toy guns and real guns. They told him that although it was OK to point and shoot play guns at the other kids, one must never do that with real guns.
"Toy guns don't hurt people," they said, "but real guns do." Real guns, like those in Dad's gun cabinet, were very dangerous and were not for kids.
When he got older, his dad (a former Army drill sergeant) carefully introduced him to real guns. The boy started out shooting a BB rifle. He was taught that you always keep the gun pointed at the ground and that you never, ever point it at people. He was taught to be very careful where he shot the gun and to study the background to see whether there was anything there that should be avoided. He was taught to keep the gun unloaded whenever possible and always to use the safety. He was taught that the gun was not to be shot in town. In fact, it never should be out of the gun cabinet except for appropriate use or cleaning. The young man was taught never to horse around with the gun or to show it off to friends.
speak. He began shooting a. 22-caliber rifle and a. 410-gauge shotgun. He started with bolt actions, then moved up to semiautomatics. He learned how to shoot a handgun, again starting with a BB pistol and working his way up. The young man did a lot of hunting and a lot of target shooting in those early years. By the time he was ready to move out of his parents' home, he was fairly well-versed in the responsible use and care of firearms.
He slowly moved up the gun ladder, so to
Living on his own, he continued to enjoy guns. He no longer enjoyed hunting, but he still enjoyed target shooting. He began collecting firearms. He bought handguns, rifles and shotguns. He got into more exotic weapons, such as TEC-9s, SKSs, AK-47s and tactical shotguns.
I don't belong to a militia. I'm not even a NRA member. In fact, I'm all for practical gun control such as waiting periods and background checks. Although I probably have enough "dangerous weapons" to make most persons nervous, that kid in Brooklyn with the stolen handgun is much more dangerous than I'll ever be. Why? Because my parents did their job.
The formative years of Timothy McVeigh,
perhaps? Nope. The stovy is autobiographical.
I'm just a mild-mannered student trudging through his final year of classes and preparing to start a career in business.
They taught me to own and use guns responsibly. They taught me to respect the property of others. Most importantly, they taught me to respect life.
One of two things happened in New York. Either the teen-ager's parents were AWOL when they should have been doing their job, or the kid knew about the dangers of firearms and simply put that information aside. If you want to hold someone responsible for what happened in Brooklyn, look to the parents or the kid, as appropriate. Don't blame an inanimate object, and don't blame the people who make them. Guns don't kill people, people kill people. It's an old cliché, but it still rings true. We can't make the world completely safe, no matter how hard we try. People need to take responsibility for their own actions, and we need to place that responsibility on them.

Wrong, says George Orwell in his remarkably up-to-date essay he wrote in 1946 titled "Politics and the English Language." Orwell argues that shoddy writing and
Orwell's comments came to mind recently when I heard a woman on the radio speaking about an art program for kids. Although the program she was describing sounded noble, her description did not, as she praised the program and its "empowerment through visualization." Poor kids — it's not good enough anymore to say that you just want to teach them how to paint.
He writes, "As soon as certain topics are raised, the concrete melts into the abstract and no one seems to be able to think of turns of speech that are not hackneyed: prose consists less and less of words chosen for the sake of their meaning, and more and more of phrases tacked together like the sections of prefabricated hen houses."
The fascination with long-winded phrases is part of academe as well. Each discipline has its boundary of jargon to keep intruders out and to reassure the faithful. It makes sense to have a common reservoir of terms to have a foundation of basic knowledge.
But too often the languages of academe and government becomes clouds with what Orwell calls the Latinization of lan-
shoddy thinking are linked. With political rhetoric as the main target, Orwell maintains that two of the biggest sins in bad writing are imprecision and stale imagery.
So the next time we sit staring at our computer late at night, coaxing our brain for the perfect image or word, perhaps we should rethink our approach, and ... think. Orwell wouldn't have it any other way.
Orwell's rants against insincerity and imprecision, however, are not directed against sensitivity. What he finds disturbing is when language impedes what is meant.
"What is above all needed is to let the meaning choose the word, and not the other way around. In prose, the worst thing one can do with words is to surrender to them," he writes.
Even Shakespearian-like eloquence, then, cannot remedy our writing if our thinking is cluttered.

guage. We cannot start a program — we have to initiate it. We can't solve a problem — we have to utilize our resources so we can facilitate change.
At best, this language obscures what a person is trying to say. At worst, it smacks of pretension. Orwell explains, "A mass of Latin words falls upon the facts like snow, blurring the outlines and covering up all the details. The great enemy of clear language is insincerity. When there is a gap between one's real and one's declared aims, one turns as it were instinctively to long words and exhausted idiom, like a cuttlefish souiring out ink."
The obvious targets for insincerity are the government and politicians. Most of us agree that bureaucracy breeds insincerity and inexactness. But it seems that the same kind of language seeps into our personal life all too often. We try to soften our words by tossing in Latinized words. We don't want to end the relationship with our significant other — we want to terminate it.

The impulse to soften the blow often is well-intentioned. We want to be diplomatic so we are not labeled as insensitive. After all, sensitivity and diplomacy appear to be increasingly scarce these days.

Simply Sex sends faulty message
Between "Gina", "Aly" and Dr. Dennis Dailey, we've got sex covered. KJHK's Simply Sex contains no mention of love, commitment or a future together. Just a satisfaction of a physical urge. It sounds

Black History Month festivities celebrated with poetry reading
Bv Dan Currv
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
A word can hurt, said Tanisha Jones, Wichita sophomore, at a poetry reading last night in conjunction with Black History Month.
"You know that old saying, 'sticks and stones can break my bones, but words can never hurt me?' she asked. "Well sometimes that's true. But sometimes words can hurt. Words can hurt a person. Words can hurt a race."
The audience of about 20 people listened to Jones recite the anonymously written poem "The Word."
The poem described the feelings of an African-American boy living with a family in a small, primarily-Caucasian town.
The boy went with the family to a local K-Mart, where people looked at him as if he were naked, Jones read aloud.
A small child in the checkout line called him a racial slur, and later, when the word comes to mean something to him, the boy uses the word also.
"It was out in the air for everyone to feel," Jones said, reciting the poem. "Hard, ugly, and without thinking. That's the word."
Eve Lane, St. Louis sophomore, said she organized the event, which was held at the Kansas Union, because she wanted to contribute something new to Black History Month celebrations.
"There's always parties and other events going on." Lane said. "I thought it was a good time to allow students an opportunity to express themselves."
Lane said she had used poetry to express herself for as long as she could remember.
She said she began to have an abiding interest in poetry after her church made one of her poems into a song for the children's choir.
Lane said she was a little disappointed with the number of people who had attended the event. But she said that the quality of the poetry, read and written by the students who had attended, made up for the missing numbers.
About 10 students read poetry last night that they had composed.
last night that he composed Abdul-Kareem Ali, Atlanta sophomore, was one of those students.
He read a poem called "Black" that he had written a few weeks ago.
"The only time you see shadows is in broad daylight," Ali said while reading his poem. "And at night time they disappear — but they really still there. Black is a beautiful thang — I say Black is a beautiful thang. And if combined with the right character — We can be the same."
Not all the poems dealt explicitly with issues of race. There was also an abundance of love poems.
Mike Canady, Wichita sophomore, read from his poem "Moment of Truth."
"As the raging flame continues to flicker," he said. "And the candle steadily melts, whisperings of soft kisses, from our forgotten place, is all that is left."
The poetry reading was sponsored by the Black Student Union.

New Jewish group to hold retreat
By Nathan Willis Special to the Kansan
Event to celebrate students' spirituality
A new Jewish student organization on campus will offer a retreat this weekend in an effort to spark enthusiasm in the Jewish community.
The retreat "Tangled up in Jew"—a play on lyrics from a Bob Dylan song—is the first major event sponsored by the Jewish Student Council since its formation last semester.
Teri Levich, Wichita junior and head coordinator of the event, said
Levich said the Jewish Student Council was formed because the KU Hillel Foundation — the traditional Jewish group on campus — had not been meeting Jewish students' needs.
any Jewish students or those interested in Judaism were welcome to attend. The cost is $25.
She said the Council was more student-focused and provided more social activities for Jewish students. The group now works in cooperation with Hillel.
Levich said the group would meet at 5 p.m. today in front of the Kansas Union. The group plans to take buses to a campsite near Cleveland, Mo.
Tonight, the group will use candies in a Shabbat dinner, which includes
"The Shabbat dinner is a traditional way of bringing in the Sabbath," said Becky Adelberg, a Chicago junior who is a member of the Jewish Student Council and is planning on attending the retreat.
the traditional bread and wine.
Barry Bernstein, a spiritual drummer who once worked with the rock group The Grateful Dead, will visit and perform for the group tomorrow afternoon.
Levich said that while a weekend retreat had not been offered by a University organization in recent years, the concept was one many Jewish students would recognize from their childhood.
Adelberg said that her previous
experiences on Jewish retreats had helped her grow spiritually.
"I like hearing other people's testimonies," Adelberg said. "I'm really interested in what this drummer guy is going to do, how he'll tie it in with spirituality."
Levich said that in addition to the spiritual concerns, the purpose of the retreat was to promote awareness of the new Jewish Student Council within the Jewish community.
"This semester, I felt like we needed a big bang, a big kickoff." Levich said. "It needed to be something different, not just, 'Let's go hang out in a bar.'

Hong Kong new option for study abroad
By Dan Curry
Kansan staff writer
A new student exchange program with Hong Kong has a new director at the Office of Study Abroad.
The Hong Kong University Direct Exchange program is an attractive path to China, said Renee Bergene, who took charge of the Pacific Rim study abroad programs two weeks ago.
Margareta O'Connell, director of Study Abroad, said Bergene's position was created because of an increase in both the number of programs offered and the number of students interested them. However, fewer than 10 students have signed up for the program so far.
Bergene said that next fall would be the first semester that KU students would be able to
travel to Hong Kong.
"It's a great program because the courses are taught in English, which opens up the program to all majors," Bergene said.
It's also good because the program expenses for KU students are relatively low, Bergene said.
The office estimates the price of a semester in Hong Kong at $7,900, all expenses included, and $13,210 for the year -- about $5,000 cheaper than a year's study in a similar program at Japan.
Classes taken at Hong Kong University can be taken for KU credit. she said.
Students must have a 3.0 grade point average and be in junior status, but there is no language requirement for the program.
The University of Hong Kong offers courses in many different majors and all courses are conducted in English, Begene said.
"Asia is still an important economic market that we shouldn't immee." she said.
Experience in an Asia also would help students understand life in the United States as well. Bergene said.
"I think that it's important because our society has become multi-national," she said.
Anyone interested in the Honk Kong program should contact Bergene as soon as possible at 864-7801.

Western Civ to be offered overseas in fall semester
By Kristi Reimer
Kansas staff writer
Students fulfilling their Western Civilization and art history requirements can labor through heavy textbooks or fight sleepiness in the semi-darkness of slide presentations.
Or, they can pack their bags and jet to Europe to become acquainted personally with the Venus de Milo and the statue of David during an increasingly popular study abroad program.
Until now, the Humanities and Western Civilization in Florence and Paris program has been offered only in spring. Beginning this autumn, students also will be able to go during the fall semester.
"We've had a lot of inquiries about Spring 2000, but they didn't seem to know they could go next fall," said Susan McNally, program coordinator for the Office of Study Abroad.
Last spring, the Study Abroad office received more applications from qualified students than it had room for, so organizers decided to expand the program. About 30 students can go each semester
Participants in the program take Western Civilization I and II, as well as upper-level art history and history classes. They spend six weeks in Florence, Italy, and six weeks in Paris with a 10-day
break in between.
Knowledge of a foreign language is encouraged but not required, and all of classes are taught in English by KU professors. No prerequisites are necessary.
The spring program starts in Florence and concludes in Paris, but this fall students will begin their studies in Paris and will take Western Civilization II first.
Classes generally are offered from Monday through Thursday, she said. The art history classes consist of one lecture per week and two visits to sites such as the Louvre in Paris or the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.
The program costs about $7,370 plus airfare and meals. The fee includes a five-day Europass for train trips to other countries, but students pay for any additional travel. Financial aid and scholarships can be applied toward the program cost.
Jennifer Van Grevenhof, Tulsa, Okla., senior, said she learned more during the program than she had in the rest of her time at KU.
"Everything you are studying is right there in front of your face," she said. "You do things for class that you would have done on your own, like going to the Louvre."
In addition to exploring Florence and Paris, Van Grevenhof traveled to other parts of France,

Victim's hard work yields fitness magazine award
By Ezra Sykes Kansan staff writer
Two years ago, 20-year-old Brandi Whitman couldn't even tie her own shoes.
On March 19, 1997, Whitman, rolled her truck going 70 m.p.h. on a dirt road. The accident left her with a broken back and serious limitations.
"I couldn't really walk," she said. "My parents had to carry me to the bathroom, and I had to sleep on a recliner. My parents had to tie my shoes."
After doctors told her that she wouldn't be able to play sports again — something she had enjoyed doing in high school — Whitman began physical therapy.
For Whitman, the therapy wasn't optional if she wanted a normal amount of mobility.
"I had to work out just to be able to move," she said.
And boy, has she moved — right onto the pages of a prominent fitness magazine.
Whitman, Pratt junior, is featured in the April issue of Muscle & Fitness magazine as one of 13 winners in the "Biggest Muscles on Campus" contest.
The contest, which is in its second year, received more than 600 entries from across the nation after it was announced last December in the magazine.
Whitman was encouraged by her personal trainer to enter the contest. She hired a local photographer to take pictures of her in a bikini to send to the magazine.
SERIES 2013
Whitman said that it was her first time to model with such few clothes on.
"It was embarrassing, and I was nervous," she said, explaining how the skimpy outfit didn't fit her personality. "But to show off your muscles you have to show off your body."
Whitman also was required to write a long paragraph that explained her workout routine, diet and general outlook on life.
On New Year's Eve, she received word that she was a winner in the contest and began to inform her friends and family.
Her mother and father had different reactions to the news.
"My dad questioned exactly what type of magazine it was," she said. "But my mom was happy and told the whole town."
Whitman's mother, Janie, said she carried a copy of the magazine everywhere she went in case someone she knew had not seen it.
Whitman went to Wichita where a photographer from the magazine took several pictures of her, two of which are featured in the magazine.
Janie Whitman said that each of the four locations that carried Muscle & Fitness in Pratt had sold out of the issue featuring her daughter as of two days ago.
"I didn't buy all of them," she said. "But I sure

did buv a lot."
Now that the contest is finished, Whitman hasn't shown many signs of slowing down in her quest for fitness.
Although she can move about freely now, Whitman must continue working out to maintain her mobility.
Six days a week, Whitman hits the gym to run for about 20 to 30 minutes and lift weights for another 45 minutes.
"I love it," she said. "You can do anything with your body. You can shape it however you want it to be."
But Whitman isn't looking to transform herself into a massive, milled-up body builder.
"I'm only doing it to be in shape for myself," she said. "I'm not doing it to see how big I can get."

Every day, 10 to 20 people exercise their dogs in the area around the Campanile
Yilan Shen, Topeka freshman, sits on the concrete
walkway leading to
the lake, with a dog on her lap,
dog under her arm and a third dog fight inebird behind her back.
"What's wrong with her teeth? Her teeth aren't as sharp." Shen asks Teicher.
The dog she's concerned about is Osita,
Teicher's old beige-colored mongrel.
Teicher explains to Shen that Osita has worn down her teeth by chewing on bones throughout the years.
Other people join the conversation that never veers from the topic of dogs.
A newcomer asks Shen what she feeds her pup for dinner. Somebody else asks about another dog's curious breeding, while another person advises a dog owner that sprinkling cayenne pepper will keep does out of a cat's litter box .
"I felt like something was missing," Teicher says. "I made it a point to introduce myself."
Teicher says that most people learn the names of the dogs before they learn the names of the owners.
Teicher says that the group of dog owners and the pack of dogs have met for potluck dinners on a couple of occasions.
"It's like a canine social atmosphere," says Chris Rairdon, a recent KU graduate from Wichita who has been bringing his dog to the Campanile for a year and a half. "It seems like most of the dogs are owned by people who are really into dogs."
While their owners chat, the yelping animals surge back, two hound-dogs in the vanguard racing after the rope toy that has been flung into the air.
The wrestling dogs in Chen's lap suddenly start enclosing.
When the teeth of the plucky half-Chow pup sink into the folds of the bull dog's jowls, there is no debacle of canicide, no deadly wrangle to the finish.
"Every once and a while, just like people, temps will flare." Teicher says.
each other to become the leader.
But he says he's never seen any blood-shed.
Dogs are more prone to fighting when they are leashed and guarding their territory, he says. Dogs in a pack challenge
"Where there's room for them just to be, they don't have to fight," he says.
Besides, his dog Chamika, a hefty, hairy mongrel, will cool down any smoldering tempers. Teicher says.
"She's become the fight monitor," he says. "She'll jump on the biggest one, and she'll bat at him with her pay."
Rairdon says that he knows there is an ordinance that says dogs should be under the owner's control at all times.
"Like a lot of things, it's not enforced," he says.
Sgt. Troy Mailen, of the KU Public Safety Office, says that the University of Kansas falls on a Lawrence city ordinance that requires dogs to be on a leash or under voice control.
Mailen says that they have responded to several dog bites during the years, but usually the police will respond to only the most serious dog incidents.
"We don't have the manpower to just monitor dog activity," he says. "All we can do is ask people if they are going to bring their animal up here to keep control of it. Utilize the leash. It backs to
common sense. Don't let your animal run loose."
Will Harper, owner of Specialty Dog Training in Topeka, says that letting dogs off their leashes is a dangerous risk.
"Even Lassie and Rin-Tin-Tin are unpredictable," says Harper, who handled dogs for the Marines in the Vietnam wars. "When you get in a pack situation, things can happen."
Harper said that he never lets dogs run loose when he trains them.
"When they're out running, all it took was one dog to take the lead," he says. "I use 30-foot leashes when training.No leash or power, no guarantee."
Raidon admits that people who come to the Campanile have been barked at, but he says that the dogs are safe.
"There isn't any very aggressive dogs" he says.
Rairdon said that for people not accustomed to being with dogs, the hill probably would be a distressing experience.
People who dislike the loose dogs just shuffle off, Teicher says.
"I guess if you don't like dogs you don't go to where there are 50 dogs everywhere," he says.
Black Crowes belt out retro sounds
MUSIC
REVIEW
The Black Crowes
By Your Side
Rating: A-
By Matt Cox
Kansan music boy
The Black Crowes revert back to their old style on By Your Side, capitalizing on blues-based rock instead of the random noise on their previous two albums.
By Your Sides' sound is straight out of the old Rolling Stones era. But The Black Crowes have more energy than the Stones.
Contributed photo
It's hard to create many different songs when you limit yourself to a specific style but the Crowes know how to keep it interesting.
Go Faster starts off the album immediately with a straightforward rock beat. Then the bass and guitars immediately explode in a Tom Petty fashion. It's perfect
for driving with the windows down and the volume way up.
On Heavy as well as Kickin' My Heart Around, the Crowes use a group of five extra women background singers to add a layer of thick vocals in the chorus. The guitars seem to sing the lyrics as well.
Go Tell the Congregation is The Black Crowes way of mocking the hypocritical right-wing attitudes. The women's choir is used again to create church-like vocals for an ironic twist in theme. The guitars fly just like in their previous songs to convey their long-living attitude of laid-back angst.
Welcome to the Goodtimes would suit a point in any movie where the main character screws up and wants to get away. Lead singer Chris Robinson sings, "Did you make a big mistake? You curse your fate and wish you could leave this life for just one day." Then he chants some "La Da Das" to music that suggests it'll all be OK soon with the guitars that cry to a slow-
dancing rhythm . It's the anthem to end all anthems.
Horsehead sounds as if it came straight out of a jam session. The concentration seems to be more on the music, which flaunts guitars that crunch harder, reminiscent of the Red Hot Chili Peppers. The guitar solos are
extravagant but not cheesy '80s rock-like.
They are perfect for any rock lover.
Overall the album is impressive. I didn't think The Black Crowes could satisfy a modern rock appetite, but they establish their place in the world by producing great music that old and new rockers will value.
Nicholas Cage's 8MM is on target
The movie $\delta MM$ is not the conventional Hollywood detective story. It goes beyond the normal fare by examining the psychological impact on relatively normal people forced to deal with the seedy underworld.
By Brendan Walsh Kansan movie critic
Nicolas Cage plays a private investigator who is hired to find the origin of a snuff film — an amateur film that shows a girl's murder. His quest for the truth takes him into the dirty depths of the illegal pornography world, where he hangs out with lowlifes and perverts. His guide, played by Joaquin Phoenix, is an aspiring musician who dabbles in porn as a way to survive until his big break.
MOVIE REVIEW
The pair finds the evil doers, confronts them and Cage seems to save the day. Most movies would end with the private investigator hero hugging his wife and baby daughter, but 8MM goes further. The film shows the effects of the private investigator's dance with the devil when Cage's character not only has a difficult time returning to a normal life, but also sinks to the criminals' level with his vigilante behavior.
8MM Rating: B
It's an appropriate movie for the times.
The movie's disturbing morality lesson aside, it is entertaining. Joel Schumacher, better known as the director who ruined the Batman series, has created his best film since Falling Down. The spooky scenes are fast-paced and effective, and the porn underworld he creates is as creepy as one would hope.
In a society where serial killers are excused because of a traumatic childhood experience, this movie tries to explain a way — if not justify — the investigator's crimes by showing that for a period he had to hang out with creepy people.
Writer Andrew Kevin Walker wrote Seven and has written another screenplay in that vein without repeating the story.
and unemotional, but that's his trademark. Phoenix has the coolest movie haircut of the year, and his character is by far the most compelling. He adds a needed element to the film by providing a voice of reason and ally to the private investigator.
The movie's soundtrack is an odd mix of Eastern music and techno that blends surprisingly well. The way that Aphex Twin's song "Come to Daddy" is used in the final confrontation should be used as a lesson in filmmaking classes.
Cage's performance is incredibly dry
Audiences should prepare themselves for a good deal of violence, sex and gore. Those who were offended by *Seven* will be horrified at 8MM, but those not traumatized by rivers of blood will do all right.

Selfless work is the secret to Johnson's team success
By Matt James
Kansan sportswriter
She isn't the Jayhawks' best shooter. She isn't their fastest runner. She isn't their best ball-handler, and she isn't even close to being Kansas's tallest player.
So why is Jaclyn Johnson one of only three Jayhawks to start all 28 games this season?
While she is a talented athlete, the answer cannot be found on the stat sheet—the only team category she leads is fouls—and it is something far more difficult to measure than sheer numbers.
Johnson may be the Jayhawks' hardest worker; a strong statement on a team where grit and determination are so abundant.
No. 22 Kansas will need every bit of Johnson's hustle and strong inside play when it finishes the regular season at 3 p.m. tomorrow on the road against in-state rival Kansas State.
When the two teams met earlier this season on Jan. 31 in Allen Fieldhouse, an enthusiastic Wildcat fan held a sign that read "Welcome to Bramlage East." He only hold the sign up once during the game, though, as the Jayhawks cruised to a 21-point victory on the strength of Brooke Reves' 23 points. The sign may have seemed ridiculous since K-State hasn't won in Lawrence since 1991, but it served as an ironic reminder of how hard it has been to win on the road in the sunflower showdown.
Admittedly, Kansas should be a heavy favorite in Saturday's game since the Wildcats are a mere 13-12 overall and a disappointing 6-9 in Big 12 Conference play, but the Kansas women's team doesn't share the same dominance as the men's team has in the rivalry.
In fact, Kansas State is the only former Big Eight school against which the Jayhawks don't hold an all-time series advantage, and the overachieving Wildcats beat the Jayhawks last year at Bramlage 53-47, a game in which only Johnson was able to score in double-digits.
What may be most impressive about Johnson this season is her ability to adjust her play to the team's needs. She averaged nearly 10 points per game last year as a freshman, but has taken significantly fewer shots and worked hard in other areas as this year's team has taken shape.

Victory against Cyclones would secure No.2 seed
By Kevin C. Wilson Kansan sportswriter
However, the winning streak will not be the only thing at stake when the Jayhawks, 19-8 overall and 11-4 in the Big 12 Conference. travel to Ames.
The Kansas Jayhawks will look to continue their three-game winning streak at 1 p.m. Sunday when they close out their regular season schedule at Iowa State.
Although Texas wrapped up the conference title Wednesday, the Jayhawks can clinch second place in the Big 12 and secure the No. 2 seed in the Big 12 Tournament if they defeat the Cyclones.
Kansas center Eric Chenwith said although the Jayhawks were disappointed they didn't win their fifth straight conference title, it was not the end of the world.
"We really wanted to win the Big 12," Chenwith said. "But we're going to have the No. 2 seed so hopefully we can see Texas again in the Big 12 Tournament."
Before the Jayhawks can set their sights on the tournament championship, they must dispose of a struggling Cyclone team. Iowa State, 14-14 overall and 5-10 in the Big 12, has lost six of its last seven games under first-year coach Larry Eustachy, including a 75-64 loss Wednesday at Missouri.
Kansas has won the last six games against the Cyclones, but if it wants to continue that streak the Jayhawks will have to contain forward Marcus Fizer. The 6-8 ophomore is the second leading scorer in the Big 12, averaging 18.1 points per game in league play. He is tied for seventh in the conference in rebounding, pulling down 7.7 boards. He scored 23 points Jan. 9 in the Jayhawks' 74-60 victory against Iowa State.
"He is the focal point of their offense," Williams said. "He's having another very, very good year. He's a tough match-up for us because if you put size on him he can take you outside and drive on you. If you put a smaller person on him, he has the ability to take you inside."
Williams also said the Cyclones would try to shorten the game with a deliberately slow-paced attack.
"Their style of play is something else that you have to talk about because they try to use clock and limit the number of possessions in a game," Williams said. "That means we're going to have to play defense for a longer period of time and then you've got to be more efficient on the offend."
Although the Jayhawks have already clinched a bye in the first round of the Big 12 Tournament and appear to be a lock for the NCAA Tournament, Kansas sophomore Jeff Carey said they would not overlook the Cyclones.
"The game is just as important as any other one," Carey said. "It is important for us to go out and play hard and do the best we can to get some momentum going into the tournament."
After sitting through 11 Senior Nights as the Jayhawks head basketball coach, Williams will have the opportunity Saturday to experience one as a parent. His son Scott will be playing in his final game for North Carolina when the Tar Heels take on Duke at 8 p.m.
"I'll be so happy for him," Williams said. "He's really had a great experience and enjoyed the heck out of it. It's almost impossible to have a better college experience than he's had. The only negative is that I've had to pay for most of it."

Track to get last chance for NCAA qualification
20
Kansan Sportswriter
Bv Mike Miller
He had not lost a race all season, and the Emporia senior had won the first conference title of his career. Smiling, sweating and relishing the gold medal hanging around his neck, he could only think of two things: how great the win felt and what was next.
Forty minutes later, his prediction came true as sophomore Charlie Gruber won the 1,000-meter run. It was his first conference title and the first time he had ever fulfilled a prediction. Never mind it was his roommate and best friend making the prediction.
Winning the mile run at last weekend's Big 12 Championships left Kevin McGinn numped up.
"Make sure you watch Charlie in the 1,000," McGinn said, a grin spreading across his face. "He's going to win that."
"It's been great having other runners as my roommates." Gruber said. "It makes it easier to get up for morning practice and keeps me from doing stuff I shouldn't."
When Gruber and sophomore Brian Blachly were looking for a roommate last year, they learned that McGinn was looking for a place to live.-The three moved into an apartment, and the situation seemed like a natural fit.
The possible friendships were one of the reasons Gruber came to Kansas in the first place. He grew up in Avrada, Colo., and was heavily recruited by
"There was no clear cut reason to come here really," Gruber said. "I just liked the guys here and went with my gut feeling."
Colorado State University, but Gruber said he felt it was time to get out of Colorado.
"He's done a great job with us," Gruber said. "Kevin and I have believed in the training and the season. And I think that's very important to have a coach that you have confidence in."
They both are close to head track coach Gary Schwartz and are quick to praise him, both as a person and a coach.
McGinn, who has struggled with injuries throughout his career, appreciates the loyalty shown to him.
"He's been great. He's stuck with me through injuries and I'm pretty grateful for that." McGinn said.
As middle-distance runners for the Kansas track team, Gruber and McGinn have been consistent scorers for the team throughout the indoor season. But despite their regular season indoor success, they were not overwhelming favorites to win last weekend.
"We knew coming in that they were capable of being conference champs." Schwartz said. "The difference is that they believed that they could do it."
Now with the indoor track season all
but over, the team's focus turns to the second most important race of the season: the last chance to qualify for the NCAA Championships.
The team competes at Iowa State today.
Because athletes must qualify by time or mark for the NCAA Championships, winning races becomes secondary to a fast time.
Other athletes competing at the meet are sophomore hurdler Eric Patterson, senior pole vaulter Colby Miller, junior pole vaulter Garrett Attig, sophomore pole vaulter Greg Steele, senior triple jumper Lester Smith, sophomore pole vaulter Andrea Branson, freshman pole vaulter Shannon Agee and sophomore threater Scott Russell.
The Iowa State meet has been a hot topic of conversation at McGinn and Gruber's apartment.
"Any other race I've just wanted to win and a fast time was secondary," McGinn said. "This weekend if I were to win and run slow, I'd be disappointed. But if I ran a 4:04 and was eighth, I'd be pretty happy."
Gruber not only wants to qualify for nationals. He also wants a piece of Kansas track history.
"I'm just gonna go for it all and try to pop a huge one," Gruber said.

Baseball team ready to face its 'toughest opponent yet'
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas baseball team, 2-5 overall, will travel to Texas Tech to face the 17th-ranked Red Raiders.
This weekend, half of the baseball teams in the Big 12 Conference will begin the battle for the conference title.
The three-game series marks the end of a three-series road trip, but head coach Bobby Randall said the Jayhawks would face their toughest opponent yet.
There is reason for optimism going into the first game of the series — the Jayhawks will place junior Rusty Philbrick (1-0) aton the mound.
"They're a good team, a very good team," Randall said. "But we will use the same preparation with them as we would with the 222nd ranked team, or the first."
Philbrick, who ranks second on the
team with a 4.91 ERA and leads the team with 11 strikeouts, has pitched well in both of his appearances this season. In the season-opening win at Texas-Arlington.
Kansas
Baseball
Philbrick pitched four innings and struck out six. In his second performance, against Pacific, he pitched seven innings and struck out five batters but received a no-decision because the team lost the game.
Randall said that for the team to have success this weekend, it would have to stay focused and execute.
"We've got to play better baseball and improve by a dramatic amount." Randall said. "We've got to expect to play well and do well."
Texas Tech features a powerful lineup led by one of the nation's best catchers, Josh Bard, the younger brother of Kansas assistant coach Mike Bard. Joining Bard is one of the country's finest pitchers, hard-throwing senior Shane Wright. Wright will start opposite Philbrick in the first game of the series.
Philbrick said he agreed with Randall that the team needed to play better. He stressed that while the Red Raiders were a top-notch team, he and the rest of the team needed to approach this series as they would any other.
"All around, I treat them like any other team," Philbrick said. "I know I can't make as many mistakes and get away with it, and I know I have to keep the ball down and throw strikes."
Randall said he expected Philbrick to do just that, especially since the game marked the first of Big 12 play for the Jayhawks.
"This isn't the end of the world or anything like that, but the conference is more difficult and there is a lot more at stake." Randall said.
Third basemen Sparky Wilhelm said that he felt this series was just what the team needed.
"Our confidence is pretty good right now, and we had a good week of practice." Wilhelm said. "I think this is what we need, a big conference game to forget about what happened, and focus on what we can do."
The team will have outfielders Brett Kappelmann and Harrison Hill back from injury. But the Jayhawks will be without pitcher Brian Schriner, who is expected to be out 10 days with a sore arm.
The rest of the Jayhawks' lineup will remain the same.
Seniors Colin Call and Chris Williams are scheduled to pitch the other two games of the series. Game One will begin at 3 p.m. today.

HOROSCOPES
Today's Birthday:
True love and good hard work are your major themes this year. A setback in March or April lets you know who your friends are. In July, you'll learn you really must play by the rules, and in August a new career opportunity opens up. November is good for travel or for starting college, and you could learn a new role to play in December. There's hard work and plenty of it around next February.

Pay attention not only to what you're doing, but also to what the other people are doing. Your intuition should be excellent right now. You can also trust your education.

Today could be a challenge. Looks like it starts out with a breakdown in communication. This is not all that unusual, actually. But today, you might be amazed to see how big a gap there is between what was said and what was heard.
Cancer: Today is a 6.
Things that were easy yesterday could go awry today, so don't take anything for granted. Make sure the people helping you understand what they're supposed to do. A breakdown in communication would be the most likely cause of an accident or glitch in the work schedule.
Leo: Today is a 7.
Proceed with caution today. A simple misunderstanding could get blown out of proportion. If there's money involved, it's even more likely to happen. Best not to sign any contracts today for just that reason. You could be thinking the contract says one thing, while the other guy thinks it says something completely

You're probably about ready to let your hair down. You don't want to go out of character in front of the wrong audience. That's always in poor taste, and today it could cause you to lose everything you've recently gained.
Finish old stuff today, rather than beginning new. Looks like here's going to be a stumbling block that you can't really plan for. As you know, the only difference between a stumbling block and a steppingstone is perspective.

You have an interesting weekend ahead of you. Take extra care to go over every step of your agenda carefully. Check everything on and off your list. Ask others if everything that needs to be done has been done, then follow up and make sure.
Aquarius: Today is a 6.
You could come up with a brilliant idea today, something so obvious you'll wonder why you didn't think of it years ago. And it's so crisp, so clean, so appropriate, you might even be able to patent this gizmo, market it and make a fortune.
You could get a bonus today, but be careful. If you spend it on something that's good for the home and family, you'll prosper. If you spend it on anything else, you won't.

Yankees, Nets merge to form YankeeNets
The New York Yankees and the NBA's New Jersey Nets have signed a letter of intent to merge the two teams into one company.
NEATS
However, the teams' current management will remain in place, with George Steinbrenner running the Yankees and Lewis Ratz running the
Nets, the teams announced today. The deal, which creates a holding
company called YankeeNets, will enable the Yankees to gain better leverage in selling their local broadcast rights. Their $486 million, 12-year contract with Cablevision Systems Corp.'s Madison Square Garden Network expires after the 2000 season, and Cablevision also controls Fox Sports New York, the only other sports cable network in the New York area.

Seznow said he was offered medication at all times if he would see a jail psychiatrist. Tyson's lawyer, Paul Kemp, has said the boxer refused to see the jail psychiatrist because he was being treated by a private doctor.

Tyson's lawyer noted that his client's medication was restored Saturday when Goldberg was able to see him. Kemp contended that withholding Tyson's medication contributed to the TV-throwing incident.
"We are hopeful that upon review of this, before any action is finalized by the discipline review board, that the persons at the Detention Center look at this fact very carefully," Kemp said.
"It is undisputed the contracting psychiatrist with the Detention Center, not an employee, had ordered a reduction and then termination in his medication, Zoloft, which he needs for treatment of chronic depression," Kemp said.

Johnson's small presence has big affect on opponents
Continued from page 1B
"It's a different role I'm playing," she said. "This year Lynn (Pride) has stepped up and is playing great. Brooke (Reves) and Nakia (Sanford) are playing good. I don't need to shoot. I'll do the small stuff."
She has been anything but small this season for the Jayhawks, using her anticipation and quickness to grab 6.3 rebounds per game, a tough task for a player only 6-foot-1.

Her selfless play comes as no surprise to James Couch, Johnson's coach at Bellerline/Jefferson High School in Burbank, California.
"She was definitely unselfish," Couch said. "She was our best scorer, but she distributed the ball like crazy."
Plaver of the Year.
Johnson averaged more than 20 points a game her senior year and still managed to lead the team in assists on her way to being named California's
Couch said Johnson brought something else to his team that couldn't be measured using statistics — a relaxed atmosphere.

"You could always count on her for a laugh," he said. "She gave the team character."
Anyone who is familiar with
the Jayhawks knows she hasn't changed in the last two years.
"Everyone's upright before the game, and you'd think the game was the last thing on my mind," she said. "I joke around a lot. That's just my personality."

Winning has become a familiar experience for two tennis sisters
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
Cheryl and Lisa Mallaiah have adjusted quickly to collegiate tennis in a winning fashion.
The two freshmen from North Longwood, Fla., have winning records in singles this season. Cheryl, 13-11, and Lisa, 11-7, have faced top-ranked opponents from Brigham Young, Mississippi and Miami.
The two sisters, 14 months apart in age, have played tennis for almost 10 years.
"We practiced with each other every day," Lisa said. "We compliment each other's games very well."
Lisa said the transition from high school to college was easier because her sister was there, too.
"I really like the campus and the team," Cheryl said. "We always thought we would go to college together. It would be weird not having her here."
They decided to attend college together because they had been together their whole lives. After being recruited by Roland Thornqvist, former Kansas head coach, the sisters decided to attend Kansas.
"It was awkward at first," Cheryl said.
"But now we get along really well."
I am armed.
"Florida is so far away, and it was nice coming here with her," she said. "It was nice having someone to talk to."
While the transition to college was easy, the sisters didn't know what to expect from the team.
"We just all clicked even though we are all different," she said.
In high school, the girls played doubles together. However, in their other tournaments, they each had separate partners.
"We thought it was better to not play together," Lisa said. "We knew each other too well."
In high school, the pair showed its potential and caught Thornqvist's eye. "They were top ranked players in

Florida and had a strong level of play," said Amy Hall, Kansas assistant coach. "Roland offered them scholarships."
The sisters said they were not competitive against each other, and Hall agreed.
"Both of them have great team spirit, and they are supportive and enthusiastic as sisters." Hall said.
The biggest win for Cheryl came last September against Maren Haus of Wake Forest. She beat Haus 6-4, 6-3.
"We want each other to do well and we encourage each other during the matches," she said. "We are each other's biggest fans."
Lisa recently defeated Alesya Ignatieva of Mississippi, 6-1, 6-3.
With their drive and determination, Cheryl and Lisa are eager to play and win the big matches.
"We have been training for this all our lives," Cheryl said.
Both said they want to end the season with a winning record and improve the quality of their overall game.
The pair, along with the rest of the team, will face New Mexico at 9 a.m. Sunday at the Robinson tennis courts.

Men's Tennis
Uribe may serve 100th singles win
Senior Luis Uribe could win his 100th singles victory in front of a home crowd Sunday as the Kansas men's tennis team faces the Iowa Hawkeyes at the Alvamar Country Club.
By Melinda Weaver Kansan sportswriter
By accomplishing this, Uribe would be one of five Jayhawks to reach this milestone. However, Uribe has not let the pressure bother him. In fact, he said he's barely has thought about it at all.
"It'll come sooner or later," Uribe said. "If I play my game well, I know I can win."
Uribe's opponent will be sophomore Tyler Cleveland, who holds an 8-1 record this spring.
"Their No. 1 player is really good," Uribe said.
"He is a big guy, and he has a big serve. I have been trying to practice my return of serve so I can do well against him."
Iowa returns eight of 12 letter winners from last season's 10-11 team and holds a 4-1 record this season, which is the same as the Javihawks.
Kansas is 3-0 overall against the Hawkeyes and have outscored them 17-4 in those three meetings. The two teams last met in 1995 in Lawrence when the Jayhawks soundly defeated the Hawkeyes 5-0.
However, Kansas knows better than to count anyone out.
"All teams at this level are pretty hard to beat," sophomore Ed Dus said. "We will have to play hard to win."
The team is coming off a 16-day layoff after facing Wichita State and Ohio State in a three-day stretch. Kansas came away with two strong victories, defeating both teams 6-1.
The team's three starting freshman Alex Barragan, Quentin Blakeyen and Rodrigo Echagaray compiled a 6-0 record in those two matches.
Uribe could move up in the record books in doubles as well. A victory could move him to a fifth-place tie in overall doubles wins with Chris Walkers' 89.
Uribe teams with Dus in No.1 doubles. The duo recently competed in the Rolex Intercollegiate Indoors in Dallas. By defeating the first and seventh ranked teams, their ranking moved up in the polls from No.15 to No.12.
Dus said he hoped the layoff would help them recover from injuries and claim a victory over Iowa.
"Coach let us have the weekend off." Dus said. "We all needed that. We all had little injuries that needed rest, and now we are fresh and ready to play."

Commentary
Senior Night hurt by fan's antics
Monday night was the incredible, magical evening that we have come to expect on Senior Night here at Kansas. As everyone has said, it couldn't have been scripted better, especially the ending. In fact, everything was so great that most people totally forgot about the complete moron who decided to degrade Kansas basketball tradition and embarrass our fans on national television.
In my column last week, I said that the students weren't visible enough and needed to be seen, but I would have preferred them to be seen in the stands and not on the court. The moron's plan was to get on national TV to impress his buddies. That's pretty cool — if you are in junior high. This absolute classless act made all Kansas basketball fans look bad and infuriated Coach Williams so much that he said he doesn't know what would have happened if he would have gotten his hands on the student.
As Roy said on his radio show, Kansas basketball is too rich in tradition, pride and class for these kind of things happen. Hopefully, it never will happen again, and if it does, the appropriate punishment should be turning over the offender to the student section to let them deal with him. I bet the punishment they would have provided would have been more severe than the disorderly conduct

Kansas basketball should be considered sacred — or at least close — and these things should not occur.
things Kansas fans shouldn't do,
here are some more.
I still think Kansas fans are the best in the nation, but while we are on the topic of
The "Overrated" cheer should be removed from our list of student cheers. It is an utterly ridiculous cheer and especially the way in which we use it. The cheer is kind
of funny when a highly ranked team first takes the court or field, but not at the end of the game when Kansas is almost ready to beat it.
When the Jayhawks beat Colorado in football, the students started the cheer at the end of the game. Why? It is demeaning to our own team. The message seems to be that because we are beating them, they must be overrated. Surely Kansas couldn't beat a top 25 team could it? A more appropriate cheer would be to say that we are underrated.
Maybe you don't agree with me or are asking yourself why you should listen to me. Well, I am a nobody, but Roy Williams is the greatest basketball coach in the world, and he agrees with me. Roy rarely reacts to a student cheer. He doesn't react to "Manny sucks" or "Sit down Norm," but he always reacts to the "Overrated" cheer. He doesn't like it because it is disrespectful to his team and the other team, and he stones it every time it starts.
I love the Star Wars Darth Vader song the band plays. I especially like it when the football team needs
a big defensive stand, but what is up with the Florida Gator hand motions the students have put with it? What's next? Are we going to start doing the Florida State/ Chiefs/ Braves "tomahawk chop?"
We are too original and have too many great cheers that we invented ourselves to copy other teams. We are not like the K-State Wildcats, who steal everyone else's cheers and whose only original cheer or song is the red-neck national anthem "The Wabash Cannonball."
We have the Rock Chalk chant, the waving wheat, and the alma mater. We don't need to copy the Florida Gator cheer. I was once told that it is really the Jayhawk beak chumping down, but to me it looks like the Gator cheer. Just try clapping next time instead of doing the Gator cheer, I think it will look a lot better and more original. I don't have Roy's support on this one, or at least not that I know of, so you are going to have to trust me.

Billiards champion sinks spot at nationals
Playing pool comes easily to student, who says game is an old family tradition
By Tiffany Seeman Special to the Kansan
Plaving pool is just in his blood.
"My dad's grandpa owned a pool hall," said Clint Basala, St. Louis senior.
When Basala was young, he lived in an apartment and often played pool in the clubhouse. At 12, he began to play competitively, and by 15 he had placed 13th in the Junior Nationals.
Basaia won the University of Kansas billiards tournament Feb. 6, and last weekend placed first in the regional competition at Kansas State University, earning him a spot in the national billiards tournament in April in Knoxville, Tenn.
He continues to be a trailblazer.
"This is the first time that KU has had a student go to nationals in billiards in a long time," said Howard Lubliner, recreation coordinator for Student Union Activities
Basala has been playing pool all of his life.
"When I was little, I stood on a chair at my grandpa's house, and I didn't even use a stick," he said. "I just threw the balls."
Basala is confident he can compete against the best.
"The guy who placed second this year at K-State placed first last year," Basala said, "And he took fourth in the nationals."
Basala said that any university in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and Oklahoma could enter the regional competition. The regional competition was a double-elimination tournament in
This year's trip to the regional tournament was Basala's third. In 1996, he took third, and in 1998 he placed second.
which players had to win seven games.
Basala usually practices at Astros, 601 Kasal drive, but sometimes he goes to Shooters in Olathe. Shooters, he said, has better competition.
"Being an architecture student, I don't have much time to practice," he said. "But this semester, I do not have studios, so that has given me a little more time."
If Basala wins the national competition, he will have an opportunity to play in professional tournaments. But Basala said that he might just go on the road and play billiards this summer.
Balliards always has been a part of Basala's life. From his grandfather to his father to the first person who ever played the game of pool.
"I find it inspiring that the person who first played pool lived 15 miles from where I was born," he said.

Tennis team will defend No.1 rank in the region
Jayhawks match up against New Mexico Sunday in Lawrence
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
After traveling for almost two months, the women's tennis team will play at home against New Mexico this Sunday.
Kansas, 2-4 this season, will face its second regional opponent this month.
Kansas is ranked first in the Central Region while New Mexico is tied for second with Colorado and Brigham Young.
Two weeks ago, Kansas defeated Brigham Young 9-0 at Provo, Utah.
Kansas needed that win to maintain its position at the top of the rankings.
Kris Sell,
Moorestown, N.J.,
senior, said the team had to maintain its level of play and confidence to overcome Brigham Young.

to keep it up against New Mexico, 3-3 on the season.
Kansas also is ranked higher nationally than New Mexico. The Jayhawks are No.17 while the Lobos are No.29.
Last season, Kansas defeated New Mexico 5-3 at Albuquerque, N.M.
New Mexico's Lobos are led by junior Ana Frigonovic.
Friganovic, 14-9, will face Sell at the No. 1 singles spot.
Sell, ranked No. 18 nationally, could score her 21st singles win of the season.
Sell, who had been ranked 25th, moved up seven spots in the rankings last week with her wins at the Rolex Indoor Tournament. Sell beat No. 4 Mirela Vladulescu of Alabama-Birmingham.
"I think Kris is very deserving of this ranking because of her accomplishments in Dallas," said head coach Jenny Garrity. "I feel that she is as good as any other player in the country."
Last weekend at the National Indoor Tournament, Sell defeated ranked players from Pepperdine and Mississippi.
Friganovic is ranked No. 60 nationally.

'Hawks swim coach named Big 12's best
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas swimming and diving team did not have to win the conference championships last weekend to be honored.
At the end of the meet in Austin, Texas, coach Gary Kempf was named Big 12 Conference Coach of the Year.
And he was surprised.
"You never expect something like this." Kempf said. "It's a true tribute to the lady."
the women's team placed third behind Texas and Nebraska in what Kempf calls one of the most enjoyable meets in which he has coached the women's team. Not only did they swim fast but he said that the women had positive attitudes going into the meet.
"It was probably one of the funnest conference meets in my 22 years of coaching the ladies," Kempf said. "I think it's a real good credit to their attitude."

believed he got the award because his swimmers rose to a new level this year.
"I think they just stood out a little bit more than the rest
Regardless of the fact that the award is designated for the coach, Kempf said he attributed the honor to the women's team.

of the swimmers there," Kempf said.
Slow comeback, surgeries keep Strawberry in dugout
Some of the women will be competing in the last chance meet this weekend in Austin, Texas. Freshmen Carolyn Horwitz, Carrie Kirkham, Molly O'Connor and Kim Waite; sophomore Carolyn Grevers; junior Rebecca Eustice; and senior Adrienne Turner will be swimming to improve their times tomorrow and Sunday.
"The seniors were absolutely marvelous," he said. "All five medalled or at least placed in the top eight. That doesn't happen very often."
Yankees pitchers warm up arms for new season
The Associated Press
The two recent surgeries prevented Strawberry from his off-season running program, affecting his overall conditioning program.
"It would not surprise me at all that by the time we're ready to leave, he would not be physically ready," New York Yankees manager Joe Torre said yesterday. "I could be wrong, but again, if he needs another week or whatever it is, that's the most important thing to make sure he gets ready."
TAMPA. Fla. — Darryl Strawberry's comeback from cancer may take a little bit longer.
Also of concern is Strawberry's previously injured left knee, which has slowed him the past several years.
"I want to be ready by opening day. We'll see how things work out." Strawberry said.
Strawberry, one of four left field candidates, underwent colon cancer surgery last October. He had a second procedure in January to remove scar tissue and will undergo chemotherapy once-a-week through at least April.
"If they work out fine, if they don't, fine.
That's the way I look at it."
The Yankees went through a second day of live batting practice yesterday.
Strawberry, who plans on beginning a light running program next week, will not play in the early exhibition games. Torre also indicated Strawberry may not make an outfield appearance until late in spring training
Among the pitchers throwing were Mariano Rivera, Jeff Nelson, Darren Holmes and Mike Stanton. None reported any problems after their 10-minute sessions.
Andy Pettitte likely will throw battice practice tomorrow. The left-hander experienced

throwing elbow tenderness following a bullpen session Monday.
After not working out Wednesday, Pettitte took part in long toss drills yesterday.
Roger Clemens is scheduled to throw batting practice for the first time today.
None of the Yankees' starting pitchers are scheduled to throw in intrasquad games Monday and Tuesday.
Cal Ripken believes his record will be broken
The Associated Press
Albert Belle, whose current string of 334 successive games is the most among active players, is just as certain that Ripken's streak will never be toped.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — Cal Ripken is convinced his record run of playing in 2,632 consecutive games one day will be broken.
Ripken shattered Lou Gehrig's seemingly unbreakable record of 2,130 straight games in September 1995, then added 501 successive starts before voluntarily ending his run by sitting out the Baltimore Orioles' final home game last season.
That left Belle, who signed with the Orioles as a free agent in December, as baseball's reigning "iron man."
"I was surprised when Cal ended the streak last year," Belle said Thursday. "It was fun while it lasted. I remember the
excitement of seeing him break the record a few years ago when I was in Chicago."
By playing in every Orioles game from May 30, 1982, to Sept. 20, 1998, Ripken raised the bar of longevity to a seemingly impossible-to-beat number. If Belle played in every game for 14 more
seasons, he would still come up short.
" T h a t I means I will be playing past when I'm 40 years old " Belle
Orioles
Even if Belle falls short, Ripken said yesterday that his record may not stand the test of time.
32, said. "I figure I have only eight or nine years left."
"Privately, I think if I did it, somebody else can do it," he said. "There's a lot of luck
involved, a lot of desire. I don't know what all the other ingredients are, but the fact of the matter is that I don't consider myself superhuman. If I can do it, then certainly somebody else can."
"That's one record he doesn't ever have to worry about being broken," he said. "It's hard to imagine. Day games after night games are tough, going to the west coast with no off day is even tougher. Even when you're going good, it's tough to go out there, mentally."
"I made a vow that once we clinch the pennant that will be my day off," he said. "I haven't won a pennant since 1996 (with Cleveland) and that was the last time I had an off-day."
Will Clark, who has played in 162 games only once during his 13-year career, figures no one will ever come close to breaking
Belle, in fact, is already planning for his next day of rest.
Ripken's record run.
"No way. To take the pounding you take every day for 16 years straight, it's not going to happen," Clark said. "They don't make 'em like Cal anymore."
Ripken made his comments before the Orioles' first workout with a full squad and Belle spoke afterward. Belle, in his second session with the media within three days, addressed his reputation as a volatile individual.
Ripken, 38, was peppered with questions about his future. Ripken, who is signed through this season with an option for the 2000 season, said he hasn't started considering retirement.
"I can't control my image anymore, and I'm not going to try to." he said.
"I don't think you can make that decision now," he said. "Towards the end of your career you have to go with the flow. Then you have to make some tough decisions."

Longhorns win Big 12 despite slow start and first-year coach
WACO, Texas — When Texas started the season 2-7, new coach Rick Barnes was catching flak from Longhorn fans who hated to see Tom Penders go.
But Barnes, who came from Clemson, didn't panic. He kept his team working hard and produced a Big 12 regular-season basketball championship.
The Associated Press
"I didn't know what to expect when I got to Texas, but I knew we could be pretty good," Barnes said. "After the bad start, everybody put their egos aside and started working together. I'm proud the way the players turned it around."
Barnes said Gabe Muoneke, Kris Clack and Chris Mihm refused to lose.
"Any team in the country would like to have those three guys," he said. "They can play with anybody in the country."
No. 22 Texas clinched the title Wednesday night with a 62-52 victory over Baylor. In that game, Clack scored 21 points, Monekeh had
TEXAS
10, and Mihm had 10 points, 12 rebounds and five blocks. Texas (18-10 and 13-2) closes the regular season Saturday against Missouri.
"There's more basketball to be played," said Barnes. "We've reached one goal, but we want to keep it going."
When Barnes came to Texas, he was smart enough to ask for a bonus clause in case the Longhorns won the Big 12 title. He earned an extra $75,000 with the championship.
Once Texas gets into the NCAA playoffs, Barnes gets an extra $25,000 if the Longhorns win their first game and an extra $5,000 boost each win thereafter.
"I'm really happy for our players," said Barnes. "We showed a lot of mental toughness and discipline over the last two months. The players put their egos aside and were rewarded with a championship."
The Longhorns were picked by the coaches in the preseason to finish fifth.
Muonekne said Barnes brought a level of confidence to the team it hadn't seen before.
"We weren't really surprised this happened to us," he said. It was our goal. Those who said we would fall didn't attend our practices."
The Longhorns have won nine of their last 10 games and 16 of their last 19.
Still, the Longhorns have unfinished business. Muoneke said.
"We want to win for the seniors at home on Saturday," he said. "Then we want to win the Big 12 Tournament, too."
HAINES CITY, Fla. — Royals manager Tony Muser told general manager Herk Robinson he was willing to manage the club with a very low payroll.
Royals manager plans to make the best of small club payroll
The Associated Press
Seven standouts as third baseman Dean Palmer, second baseman Jose Offerman and pitcher Tim Belchner have gone elsewhere. The Kansas City roster is loaded with a few veterans, a scad of kids and a bunch of wannabes — 69 of them in all.
"The prediction is I think we have a group of young men who have the ability to play

According to every prognosticator, the race is already over in the American League Central: Mark down the Cleveland Indians as champions. The Royals are dumped into fourth place or the cellar, a

notion that rankles Muser. He's sick of hearing that.
"We're not going to finish last," he said.
"When you line up against Cleveland, it looks like we don't have a chance, but it's important for us to really believe in ourselves — that we can win."
Some of the main characters in the ensemble, notably pitcher Kevin Appier and first baseman Jeff King, might be traded to further slice a $26.5 million pavroll.
Opening the season with such young players as center fielder Carlos Beltran, second baseman Carlos Febles and designated hitter Jeremy Giambi seems to energize Muser.
Overall, Muser believes the infield defense will be better with Febles replacing Offerman at second and Rey Sanchez taking over shortstop from the Felix Martinez-Mendy Lopez combo of last season.
"Up the middle, we might have gotten seriously young, but I think we have talent," Muser said.
If King is dealt, Jeff Conine can slide into his original position at first and leave right field to Larry Sutton or Jermaine Dye. Beltran, nudging Johnny Damon from center field to left, is expected to cover great gaps of ground with a much better arm.
His biggest challenge will be re-fitting a pitching rotation without Belcher, Patt Rapp and, perhaps, Appier. Veteran catcher Chad Kreuter was brought in to handle young pitches such as Jose Rosado and Glendon Rusch.
Muser feels one of the Royals' strengths is the late-inning bullpen of Scott Service, Matt Whisenant and Jeff Montgomery.
Muser will begin trying to mold a low-salaried, small-market team into something that will pull fans to Kauffman Stadium.
Talk show host Rome insults guests and callers as his radio ratings rise
"I made a commitment to this philosophy, and I made a commitment to Herk, and I will remain loyal to that commitment and loyal to Herk." Muser said.

AP sportswriter
There's no need for Jim Rome to convince players to come on his radio program. They call him.
The 34-year-old talk show host, who has sent the Fabulous Sports Babe's ratings tumbling, is obnoxious and outrageous. But that doesn't seem to turn off his guests.
Except for Jim Everett, of course.
"I pushed the guy too far and have to be accountable," Rome said. "My only concern is that's all they know about me. ... I'm not glad it
Rome gained notoriety when he tarnished Everett by calling him "Chirssy" on his ESPN show in 1994, and the former Rams quarterback proceeded to level him.
happened,but it did make me a household name,and it was a classic TV moment."
Beveret the reception - Northampton,
Wayne Gretzky, Mike Piazza and Reggie
Jackson are all consistent callers that call in to talk "smack."
Rome can be relentless and condescending to callers, sounding a loud buzzer as he hangs up on them if he doesn't like what they have to say.
He had a chance to go into TV full time a few years ago in 1996 with his ESPN show, but that meant giving up his radio gig. He declined.
He landed another TV show, "The Last Word," about two years later, and the toned-down version of his radio show now airs on Fox Sports Net.

Rome has tried to invite Everett back to apologize, but the offer hasn't been well-received.

Racquetball back in the swing of things
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
It's almost tournament time, but not just for whom you think.
Sure, the Big 12 basketball tournaments are coming up. Yes, March Madness is right around the corner. But another tournament coming up in March is not as hwed.
The Crimson and Blue Invitational, the Kansas Racquetball Club's 1999 tournament, will be Saturday, March 6 in Lawrence.
Jason Noyes, Great Bend junior, said that the tournament include about 45 players from Missouri, Southwest Missouri State and Kansas.
Each team will seed 12 players, and they will square off against each other in a round-robin style tournament.
Clark Langemeier, club president and Manhattan junior, said the other two schools coming were ton notch.
1a-
"that're racquetball's version of Florida and Florida State in football. "Lanegmeier said, "They're awesome."
The tournament is sanctioned by the United States Racquetball Association, which is providing a variety of services for the tournament.
The USRA will offer insurance coverage, first aid and safety equipment for tournament participants, and is sending a representative to run the event.
Last year, the club was not active because
"It been a lot of work, and I think it will be a success," Noyes said.
Langmeier built this year's club from absolutely nothing.
of a lack of interest and little student organization.
"We're trying to redeem ourselves because the guys in the past really soiled the racquetball club's name," Noyes said.
Several club members, including Noyes, who likely will be next year's president, give Langemeier all of the credit for restoring the club.
"I've got some pretty big shoes to fill," Noyes said. "I'm going to do my best, and it will be a lot easier since Clark has done so much of the groundwork."
James Pierce, club vice president and Costa Rica graduate student, agreed with Noves.
I knew Clark, and we played all of the time for fun, and he started talking
about starting the club up again'. Pierce said. "He's the one who took
Pierce said. "He's the one who took the initiative, and it's grown a lot." Pierce said his duties as vice president were mostly housekeeping
related. He said he got the word out about the club, went to meetings and brought in new players to make sure
Some of the club's plans for the future include attending more tournaments, forming a conference and continuing to expand the sport.
they knew what was going on.
The rebuilding of this club has been a team effort, and the members said they felt good about what the future held.
"I would really like to see some of the schools in the area, like Wichita State and Kansas State, come together and make a
conference," Langemeier said. "That's up to the next president and how ambitious he is." Noves appears ready for the challenge.
"I'm just going to follow his lead, and he's going to feed me in," Noyes said. "I've been gradually taking over."
Langemeier and Noyes have approached some schools about forming a conference, but they haven't yet heard back from them.
In the more immediate future, the club is sending a team to the National Tournament in mid-April in College Station, Texas. The executive board of the sport clubs has provided the team $1,100 to attend the tournament.
The club has submitted next year's budget for review by the board. The budget includes plans to attend more tournaments in St. Louis, Chicago, and Kansas City.
"St. Louis is a big racquetball town," Noves said.
Langemeier, Noyes and other members of the club are rebuilding the club because they love the sport.
"I started it back up for two reasons," Langemeier said. "One, was because I just wanted people to play. And two, it's a sport that so many people love, and I wanted to promote it here at the University."
Team members said the game itself provided an incredible aerobic workout coupled with fun and competitive spirit.
"It's just a lot of fun," Pierce said. "It's not just like working out, it adds something to it."
Langemeier agreed.
"When you play the game, it's a lot of fun, and I think most people do have fun playing it," Langemeier said. "It's a game you can play with your roommate or a friend, in the winter or the summer, and you can play for high competition or just for fun."

Kansas men's basketball has formed a tradition of quality seniors whose leadership provides a backbone on which younger players can build.
The senior class of 1999 continues this tradition. Ryan Robertson, T.J. Pugh, Jelani Janisse and Chris Martin help lead the team through this season.
Ryan Robertson
Robertson said his relationship with Coach Roy Williams was one of the main reasons he chose to go to Kansas.
Robertson joined the Jayhawks from St. Charles (Mo.) West High School in 1995.
"I chose KU solely because of Coa Williams," Robertson said. "Our望客."
relationship grew from the time I was a sophomore in high school, and I saw that this was where I wanted to play. The atmosphere is unequaled."
Robertson said some of his best memories were of winning at Allen Fieldhouse.
"I enjoyed cutting down the net when we won the conference title," Robertson said. "I loved being in Allen Fieldhouse and celebrating as champions."
For Robertson, the future remains uncertain but offers a variety of options.
"There are several I could do," Robertson said. "First, I hope to play somewhere, either in the NBA or overseas. I may want to try coaching, or I may do something with the business degree I will be getting this spring."
No matter what he decides to do, Robertson said he has enjoyed his four years at the University.
"It's been great," Robertson said. "It's been a very special time. I'll always be able to look back on this time and think fondly of it, not just in one or two years but in 10 or 20 years. Not many players get to do what I have had the opportunity to do at KU."
T. J. Pugh
Thomas Joseph Pugh graduated from Creighton (Neb.) Prep School in 1995 as the second-leading scorer in Nebraska Class A as a senior, averaging 25.8 points a game.
Pugh said he chose the University because its tradition was unmatched anywhere in the country.
As a Jayhawk, Pugh has seen several great games and been a part of several great memories, but he said his favorite memory was being ranked No.1 in the nation.
"It's hard to imagine when I was 18 or 19, having to make such a big decision and making such a wise choice," Pugh said. "I just thank God for the wisdom he gave me to make this decision."
goes along with that," Pugh said. "I've enjoyed the camaraderie and competition on those teams."
"I love being No. 1 and be able to say you're No. 1 and all the fanfair that
Pugh's future plans involve avoiding a job until he's in his 30s and could include medical school.
Jelani Janisse
Janisse graduated from John F. Kennedy High School in Granada Hills, Calif., in 1995 as a two-time Most Valuable Player for the basketball team.
After high school, he attended Los Angeles City College, where he earned All-American honors.
Janisse joined the Jayhawks in 1997 as a junior and played in 23 of 39 games.
Last season started slowly for Janisse because of ankle surgery, and frustration followed. He said he thought he had
recovered this season and hoped to see more playing time.
"I have adjusted better this season." Janisse
Janisse has not spent much time dwelling on the future, but he said he hoped to play football for the Jayhawks next season. He already has spoken to Coach Terry Allen about the prospect.
said. "It was hard leaving home, big California, the sun. I'm not happy with my playing time, but as long as the team is doing well, I'm happy."
He played defensive back and wide receiver in high school but quit as a sophomore when his coach urged him to pursue basketball.
Chris Martin
Martin, born in Tylor, Texas, traveled many paths before choosing the Kansas one and joining the basketball team as a walk-on.
As a senior at Shawnee Mission South High School, he averaged 20 points a game and was named to Lee's Summit's All-Tournament team.
After graduating in 1985, he headed to Iowa, where he played one season at Cornell College and averaged 9.1 points a game.
In 1996, he moved back to Kansas and attended Johnson County Community College.
Martin earned honorable mention honors in the East Jayhawk Conference and scored in double figures 20 times.
He joined the Jayhawks after that season during the 100th season of Kansas basketball.
"This is the best program I have been in by far," Martin said. "I enjoyed all of the things connected with the 100 years of basketball: Wilt, Dean, the conference championship and the season in general. There's not a program in the country that can compete."
Martin's future plans include one more year of school to pursue his degree in business communications. After graduating, he plans to find a job in that field.

Jayhawk leaders' paths to Kansas different
By Melinda Weaver

Kansan sportswriter
Although there are few women's basketball seniors, their importance is great.
Only two seniors, Nakia Sanford and Shandy Robbins, make up the class of 1999, but they have worked to step up their games and lead the team to another NCAA tournament appearance.
Nakia Sanford
Sanford, a 6-foot-3-inch center from Lithonia, Ga., said she wasn't sure whether she made the right decision to move from home. But she knows it was the right choice.
"It's a big change," Sanford said. "But I love Lawrence. I fit into the program immediately once I came. I knew I made the right choice."
Sanford stepped into the starting role as a freshman, scoring 16 points and grabbing 11 rebounds in her debut as a Jayhawk. That first game was only a preview of her contributions for the next four years.
"First of all, she is the finest athlete at her position today," coach Marian Washington said. "She's an inspirational leader."
Of all Sanford's KU memories, her favorite is beating Iowa last season in the Sweet 16 round of the NCAA tournament. The game was played on Iowa's home court.
Sanford said she remained unsure of her future plans, but she hopes to play overseas. She has taken four years of French and also can speak some Spanish and Italian. She will graduate in December
with a degree in broadcast sales. Shandy Robbins
Robbins, a 6-foot-1-inch guard from Huntington Beach, Calif., didn't find her way to KU quickly.
She spent her freshman season at Oregon before transferring to Central Arizona, where she earned all-league and all-region status, averaging 15.8 points and 7.1 rebounds a game.
On a recruiting trip as a junior, she knew her next stop would be Kansas.
"It has a great tradition, and the campus is pretty," Robbins said. "I just had a good feeling about it. It's unexplainable."
She said her role as a Jayhawk was even more important as a senior.
"I have to step up and show the underclassmen how to get it done," Robbins said.
Robbins's favorite memory is the same as Sanford's — beating Iowa in the Sweet 16.
"They were supposed to be the best recruiting class in the nation when they were freshman," Robbins said. "So they were just awesome. It was a big-time game, and we all on the same page. It was very exciting."
Robbins isn't ready to look to the future yet, but after she finishes her liberal arts degree in a year, she has plenty of options.
"I want to travel." Robbins said. "Maybe I'll do some acting. I don't know. I just want to go someplace new and do something different before I settle down in one place."

'Senior Night' 1972 was Bud's night
Bud Stallworth set still-unbroken record most points-per-game

Kansan sportswriter
Throughout the fabled history of Kansas basketball, "Senior Night" has always been an emotional, memorable moment.
For Isaac "Bud" Stallworth, "Senior Night" in 1972 was his night to shine.
BILAN 32
In his last home game in Allen Fieldhouse, Bud, as he was affectionately called by the Kansas faithful, played the game of his life. This was a year that was far from a typical Kansas basketball season — Stallworth was worn down from carrying the load.
While the bruising and grinding of the pre-three-point line play had taken its toll on Stallworth, he was determined to make one last showing—one to be remembered.
"It was against Missouri and the fans had packed the fieldhouse for the seniors," Stallworth said. "There was no way, as long as I had any strength left in my body, that Missouri was going to beat KU at the fieldhouse."
Stallworth held true to his word and scored 50 points in the game. That total still stands as the highest number of points scored by an individual in a single game against a conference opponent at KU.
"Ididn't realize, as a younger man, that 25 to 30 years later, even with the three-point line, that the record would never be broken," Stallworth said. "As an individual, that may have been my greatest moment, but our Final Four team my junior year
may have been my greatest team moment."
The 50-point performance was Bud's finest game as a Jayhawk, and it marked the end of a fabulous college career.
Stallworth grew up in Hartselle, a small Alabama town. He said that as a young black kid growing up in the South during the 1960s, dreaming of playing basketball wasn't exactly the thing to do. But for Bud, dreaming of playing basketball was all he did.
"I was, and probably still am, the ultimate gmat rym." Stallworth said.
He came to Lawrence in the summer of 1667 to attend a music camp. His parents, Isaac Stall worth Sr. and Eva, were teachers, and they were sure their son would be educated.
"No A's meant no ball," Stallworth said.
Hoping to provide their son with a well-rounded education, they sent him to music camp. He learned to play the trumpet.
While at camp, Bud would sneak to the gym between rehearsals and play pick-up games with Kansas great Joseph "Jojo" White.
"These guys were All-Americans, and they were no different than me," Stallworth said. "The shoes and shorts may have been a little different, but I could play with those guys."
He returned home to Hartselle that summer. Stallworth said he was the first black recruited by Alabama and Auburn. He also was recruited by Vanderbilt, which only two years earlier had broken the color barrier.
Since graduating from the Univer
sity in 1972, Stallworth has been many places. He spent five years in the NBA, two with Seattle, who picked him in the first round of the NBA draft and a few years in New Orleans. But an automobile accident cut his career short.
After the accident, Stallworth became an entrepreneur in the restaurant business, starting Isaac's in
California, and Su Casa in Hawaii. Both businesses no longer exist.
Stallworth is working for the University of Kansas on a project called Crumbling Classrooms, which repairs classrooms.
Stallworth said that this was his way of giving back to the great institution where he spent so many years.
Former Kansas star continues success in the WNBA, abroad

three-point percentage as a rookie and has been the WNBA player of the week. In addition, she's played with USA Basketball during the off season against some of the world's best competition. But she still believes she has more to accomplish.
This success comes after a stellar career at Kansas where she was a two-time conference Player of the Year and earned All-American honors.
"I'd like to be on the steals and assists lists," Dixon said.
"Tamecka was a gamer, much like Lynette (Woodard) was," Kansas women's coach Marian Washington said. "She was going to take that last shot. She was willing to do that for us."
Although she has posted impressive stats as a player, her biggest influence on the court may be her enthusiasm. Through the years, Dixon has established herself as one of the most energetic players to take the court.
"When I first came to Kansas, I was told they had never seen a player with such a competitive mentality and who was such an emotional player." Dixon said.
Washington believes this energy will reach the fans as well.
"She's the kind of player people will want to come see, because you're not going to know what she's going to do," Washington said.
Even with all of Dixon's success, most of her goals remain team-oriented.
"I want to bring a title back to L.A. Whatever I have to do to bring back a title, I'll do it," she said.
She does have a personal desire remaining though.

"I want to be someone whose name is not forgotten when I hang up my shoes," Dixon said.
Kansas alumna fondly recalls beginnings, not ready for end
Edited by Clint Hooker
I recently had the privilege of meeting Kansas' current special assistant for external relations and women's basketball in her first season in the position, but maybe her title should read "the person we just don't want to let go."
She is Lynette Woodard, widely known as the greatest female basketball player to ever walk the planet — and a Kansas graduate.
I found her, not surprisingly, making jumper after jumper at a practice in Allen Fieldhouse.
Sne laughed when I mentioned — but never denied — the imaginary title many have bestowed upon her during her more than two decades of basketball.
Woodard's journey to the University began in 1875, playing in the high-school state tournament at Allen Fieldhouse for Wichita North High School. It was the gangly sophomore's first visit to Lawrence.
“It’s nice to be thought of that way.” Woodard said. “I love the game, and I don't think there's anyone in the world who works harder at it than I do. It's been my life. It's my soul.”
"I remember playing here, but I was sick, so I didn't get to take the campus tour with everyone else," she recalled. "Basically all I got to see was the fieldhouse."
Kansas coach Marian Washington was in attendance at Allen Fieldhouse that day to see Woodard play. Washington smiled as she remembered her first encounter with the future superstar.
"I saw her greatness as a sophomore in high school," Washington said. "I saw this young player take the basketball and just outrun people."
The decision as to which college to attend remained a question in Woodard's mind until she finally met Coach Washington. It was a visit that would change both their lives.
"I was open to a number of schools." Woodard said. "Then I came to visit and got the grand tour. Just meeting Coach Washington and knowing all that she had done. I knew this is where I wanted to be."
Washington was in her fourth season (1976-77) at Kansas when she signed the nation's top high school player from Wichita North. The Jayhawks' record was a modest 41-52 in those first four years under Washington, who was struggling to increase the team's scholarships and small recruiting budget. Woodard was the big-time recruit Washington needed to move her program to the next level.
The duo helped Kansas win 106 games while losing only 31, moving the program into The Associated Press poll, as well as the national spotlight, for the first time.
Woodard became the all-time scoring leader in women's NCAA history (3,649 career points) — a distinction she still holds — on her way to being named to four consecutive All-American teams.
"When you look at a player who has led the nation in scoring, led the nation in rebounding and led the nation in steals; that's a total player," Washington said.
There was much more to Woodard's years at Kansas than long bus trips and team meetings, though. She was a two-time academic All-American and graduated with a bachelor's degree in speech communications in 1981, an accomplishment she said would have never happened without basketball.
"It was through athletics that I found out about higher education. Had I not played, I probably would have just taken a job." Woodard said. "I never would have known."

later use her degree when she was the director of athletics for the Kansas City, Mo., school district in 1993-94 and vice-president of marketing for Magna Securities in New York in 1995-98.
When she graduated from Kansas, however, all Woodward wanted to do was play the sport she loved. Unfortunately in 1881, even the world's greatest women's basketball player had no American professional league where she could display her skills.
So, Woodard became an Olympian; she first made the team in 1980 when the United States boycotted the Olympic Games. And she was captain of the 1984
team that brought home the first-ever women's basketball gold medal.
The disappointment of the boycott did not deter Woodard, who played on various national teams during the summers and utilized the tough workouts of Coach Washington in the winters.
"1800 was a learning experience," she said. "We were all primed to go, but there was the boycott. That's a good lesson in life. Do all you can do, but it may not always come out the way you want it to."
"Watching the flag go up and representing your country, it is a beautiful experience," Woodard said.
Woodard also served as an assistant coach at Kansas until 1985 when she realized her childhood dream of becoming a Harlem Globetrotter.
A chill ran up my spine as she described the circumstances that led to her joining the world-famous traveling team.
"I count that as one of the miracles in my life," Woodard said. "When I was six or seven, I said I was going to be a Globe-rotter."
At 39, Woodward will begin her third year in the WNBA in June. She played for the Cleveland Rockers and Detroit Shock during the first two years of the professional women's league. She will most likely be chosen by one of several expansion teams joining the league this year.
Woodard will retire from professional basketball after the upcoming season.
"I don't want to do it past 40," she said with a smile. "Although, I think I can."

Radio duo shoots life into games
By Chris Wristen
Kansan sportswriter
For longer than most Jayhawk fans can remember, they've heard the same familiar voices coming through their radios and bringing them the action of Kansas basketball games.
Falkenstein has been broadcasting for the Jayhawks for 53 years and Davis for 16 years. During that time, they have placed listeners right in the middle of the action, bringing listeners Kansas facts and providing listeners with a lifetime of memories.
Sports broadcasting has been in the Davis family for years, which helped him get his start.
"My dad had done some when I was a kid, and I had a cousin in radio. I had wanted to be in radio and had the interest in sports, so it was a matter of putting the two together," Davis said.
Before he announced Kansas games, Davis broadcast games at Fort Hays State for 16 years and was inducted into its sports hall of fame. Then he came to the University.
"I grew up in Kansas so it's pretty tough not to be interested in KU bass球场." Davis said.
He now serves as the play-by-play broadcaster and the host of Hawk Talk, the weekly radio call in show.
Falkenstien has been a Jayhawk since birth. His father was a business manager of athletics at the University. Max Falkenstien never intended to be a sportscaster, though.
"My getting into sports broadcasting was an accident more than anything else," Falkenstien said. "When I got back from the service, I was asked to cover a big NCAA playoff game. It was 1946. I wasn't sure how it would go, but figured I'd give it a shot."
The announcers have seen their share of great games and have had the opportunity to bring those games to life to listeners.
For Fallenstein, memorable games include the 1952 National Championship game and the 1968 quadruple-overtime victory against Kansas State.
They also have seen their share of great players.
"Wilt (Chamberlain) dominated the game like no other player ever has," Falkenstien said. "Danny Manning was the most skillful. He had the capacity to make all of the players on his team better."
Even though they see every game from the best seats in the house, there's a lot more to the job than meets the eye.
"I think that with a job like this you have to really love it," Davis said. "It sounds corny, but you literally have to because of the hours and the things that aren't typical of some jobs. It has to be your work and your play both. This is my job and my hobby."
Their presence with the basketball team has been noticed, and greatly appreciated, by the entire basketball program.
"They both truly care about the individuals involved and that is truly unique." men's coach Roy Williams said.
Each broadcaster has his own style, skillfully meshed together to form one of the most energetic and enjoyable broadcast tandems in college basketball.
"I've tried to make the game fun for the listener and offer insights to personalize the game — I try to give the fans' view of the game," Falkenstien said. "I don't think fans know all of the technical details, or want to know that much about it. They want to enjoy the game."
Davis agrees.
"I hope I've been able to report it and people have been able to enjoy the games and the players and the events themselves," Davis said. "I'm not the story, the team is and the game is. Hopefully I've been able to get that to the fans and the listeners without getting in the way of it."
They've had their share of fun along the way as well.
"I enjoy it. I particularly enjoy the association with the players and the coaches. I've developed such great friendships with the players from year to year." Falkenstein said.
Davis particularly enjoys some of the road trips.
"It's fun to go most anywhere in the conference," Davis said. "I'm starting to get used to the Texas schools now, but the old Big Eight schools are all fun to go because we know a lot of people."
The pair have enjoyed the work through the years.

"It's been a great run," Falkenstien said. "It's just friendships and being part of the family that has made it fun."
Kansas ingrained in basketball's history

defeated Oklahoma 83-79 in the NCAA finals for the Jayhawks' first national championship since 1952.
All true Kansas basketball fans have these memories; the first Jayhawk we pretended to be on the playground — whether it was Manning, Lynette Woodard, Mark Turgeon or maybe even Peka Mararkkanen for my generation, or Clyde Lovellette and Wilt Chamberlain for my parents' generation. Kansas basketball is a tradition that ties us all together and gives us a common heritage.
Since the creation of basketball, Kansas has played an integral part in the development of the sport. The first Kansas coach was none other than James Naismith, the inventor of basketball. So maybe he is the only coach at Kansas to have a losing record, but no other school can claim to have had the "father of basketball" as its original coach.
Naismith invented the game in 1889 in an effort to find a game that would occupy the time of Springfield College
students between football and baseball. Naismith came to Kansas in 1898 where he coached nine seasons and compiled a 55-60 record.
One of Naismith's successors has been called the "father of"

rest "Phog" Allen coached the Jayhawks for 39 seasons, winning 590 games and losing 219, making him the winningest Kansas coach.
Follow the family tree of Division 's most successful coaches, and inevitably it leads back to Allen. Dean
Smith, who finished his career at North Carolina as the all-time winning coach in basketball history with 879 victories, played for Allen at Kansas. Second to Smith on the all-time victories list is Adolph Rupp, another of Allen's former players.
Between Smith's 36 years at North Carolina and Rupp's 41 years at Kentucky, the pair produced the majority of the currently successful coaches, including Rick Pitino of the Boston Celtics, Tubby Smith of Kentucky and Kansas' own Roy Williams.
The women's coaching tradition may not be as deep, but it is nonetheless stellar. Marian Washington has coached the women's team for all 26 years of its existence and will be only the 11th women's coach to reach 500 all-time wins.
The coaching tradition only is the tip of the iceberg called Kansas basketball. Where would we be without the players? Arguably the greatest men's player and the greatest women's play
ers donned the crimson and blue — Chamberlain and Woodard.
Chamberlain, who went on to dominate the NBA, played for the Jayhawks for two seasons, but fell short 54-53 in the 1957 national championship game to North Carolina.
Woodard merely was named a Kodak All-American all four years and remains the all-time career scorer with 3,649 points. But she too fell short in her quest for a national championship.
So what does the future hold for Kansas basketball? Maybe Williams and Washington will finally win national championships. Maybe the next Lynette Woodard is just now learning to walk. Perhaps, the next Danny Manning is picking up a basketball for the first time.
But whatever the future holds for Kansas basketball, my blood always will bleed crimson and blue.

Ted Owens garnered 348 wins in 19 years
Former men's coach part of Kansas tradition
By Torrie Jones
Kansan sportswriter
Lost in the Phog of four national championships, 11 Four Four appearances and numerous Hall of Fame players and coaches, Ted Owens has his niche somewhere in KU basketball lore.
Owens coached the KU men's basketball team 1964-1983, compiling 348 wins in 19 seasons, placing him second behind the legendary Phog Allen in all-time victories. Under Owens' tutelage, Kansas won six Big Eight Conference titles and qualified for NCAA postseason play seven times.
"My philosophy was, 'build the team around strong defense and rebound well because good shooting isn't always reliable." Owens said.
Owens also led the Jahawks to Final Four appearances in 1971 and 1974. The 1971 squad, led by Bud Stallworth and First team All-American Dave Robisch, stormed through conference play undefeated, reeling off 21 straight victories and a 27-1 record before losing to eventual champions UCLA.
"I would put our 1971 team up against any队 in KU history." Stallworth said.
The epic battle, played in the Houston Astrodome before one of the largest crowds ever to see a college basketball game, pitched two of the game's best players in UCLA's Bill Walton and Robbisch of
A
The Jayhawks were dominated early but worked a 13-point deficit down to two late in the second half. Kansas had momentum and the ball with a chance to tie the game, but Robisch was called for a controversial traveling violation. The Jayhawks lost the ball, momentum and the game, 68-60.
After that lost and two mediocre seasons, Owens once again led a talented bunch to the Final Four.
Kansas.
"The 1974 team wasn't as physical as the 1971 bunch, but as a whole we had a deeper team," Owens said. "We had six or seven players who were capable of stepping up at any given time."

Though the team lost to Marquette in the NCAA semifinals, the 1974 squad won the Big Eight championship and compiled a 23-7 record.
Though Owens' hard-working coaching style harkens back to his upbringing, his adolescence sounds more like Huck Finn's than Pat Riley's. Owens went to a small high school in his hometown and graduated with 29 other students in his class. After high school, Owens went on to the University of Oklahoma on a scholarship that only paid for his tuition, so he worked odd jobs to pay for various
The path that led Owens to the highprofile life of coaching a major NCAA basketball program began in humble fashion. Owens was born in a small farmhouse in Hollis, Okla., where he learned valuable lessons from hard-working parents.
"We never had a lot of money, but I learned the importance of hard work, love and discipline." Owens said.
expenses, including room and board.
"By day, I went to class and practice," Owens said. "At night, I worked at a grocery store and as a sleeping fireman to put money in my pocket."
A three-year letterman at Oklahoma (1949-1951), Owens began his coaching career at Cameron State Junior College in Lawton, Okla, where he compiled a 93-24 record and advanced to the national junior college semifinals three out of four years.
Owens then accepted an assistant coaching position in 1960 with Dick Harp and became head coach in 1964. While at Kansas, Owens used the lessons learned at Oklahoma and Cameron, instilling an
offense that was geared more toward the athleticism.
"Owens was a lot more flexible than most coaches offensively, but he still preached the importance of fundamental basketball." Stallworth said.
Today, Owens is in his third year as athletics director at St. Leo's College in Florida. He is enjoying life with his wife, Michelle, and four children.
"Working as athletics director at St. Leo's has been an enjoyable experience, but I'm also interested in pursuing some business ties," he said.
Although Owens enjoys his job, he also is looking to go in a different direction.
Kansas women prefer loyal core to fair-weather fans
By Emily Hughey
Kansan sportswriter
In a university shrouded with Phog hysteria, the women's basketball team often plays in the shadows. But it doesn't mind
and that numbers were not important to her.
row of a typical men's game draws a full-capacity crowd of 16,300, the women play for only about 2,500 fans. And although they would appreciate a larger body of support, the women would not swap fans with the men if they had the chance.
Senior center and forward Nakia Sanford does not even bother comparing the women's fan turnout to the men's.
"I feel like we get 2,500 fans or so, and they're going to stay till the end, no matter if we're winning by 30 or losing by 30," Jackson said. "They never leave disappointed."
"I just don't think about it because we have so many goals we're trying to focus on," Sanford said. "And I'm sure they don't think about what we're doing."
Sophomore guard Jennifer Jackson said that she appreciated the quality of fans the women attracted
Brooke Reves, junior forward, agreed.
Brooke雷斯, please for the image.
"I think our crowds are the right type of crowd."
Reves said. "They're really loyal fans. If we were losing, they wouldn't get up and leave."
In high school, both Jackson and Reves played in gyms packed with fans, so the transition to collegiate games was one to which they had to adjust.
It was not until her freshman year at Wichita State University that Reves encountered a lack of fan support. After playing for small crowds, she said the turnout at Kansas was far better than she expected.
"I started at Wichita State where they didn't have a crowd at all," Reves said. "When I came here, it was almost overwhelming."
Reves attributed the imbalance of support in men's
and women's teams to women not dunking.
"The huge difference that I see is that men can dunk, and women just haven't mastered that yet," Reves said. "But we're going to get there."
Jackson agreed that dunking added excitement to the men's games but that the tradition of men's basketball was what really attracted fans.
"I think that the name, the tradition that Kansas basketball has, is associated with the men," Jackson said.
But what the men do not have, Jackson said, is the energy on the court that the women do.
"We have a lot of fun out there." Jackson said. "We work really hard in practice, and we go out in the games and get excited."
Both Jackson and Reves see the sport coming into its own in the near future.
"We're just watching our game develop," Reves said. "I think it's going to be huge. We're growing rapidly."

Roy Williams: Legend in the making
Roy Williams came to the University of Kansas from North Carolina in 1988. Since then, he has become the NCAA coach with the highest winning percentage. Photo by Steve Puppe/KANSAN
By Amanda Kaschube
Kansan sportswriter
On July 8,1988,Roy Williams was named head basketball coach at the University of Kansas.
Eleven seasons later, he has the highest winning percentage (81.9) among Division I coaches and the most wins in the first ten seasons of a coaching career (282).
In the last eight years, Williams' squad has won seven conference championships. And in the last nine years, the team has won at least 25 games each season.
Williams has led Kansas to nine consecutive NCAA tournament appearances, including the Final Four in 1991 and 1993.
Only "Phog" Allen and Ted Owens coached longer than Williams has at KU.
About the athletes
B. J. Williams' speech at senior night 1997 shows the impact Williams has on his players.
"Words can't describe what he's meant to me over the last four years," B.J. Williams said. "I'm a better person for having known (him)"
And along with the success Williams has had with his players on the court, they are also successful off the
court.
Williams has produced 22 academic all-conference players and two Academic All-Americans, Jacque Vaughn and Jerod Haase.
Perhaps Williams' teams have multifaceted success because of the care he takes when he recruits.
He said that when he was recruiting an athlete — or considering recruiting him "still watched every
— Williams watched every move he made.
"If he goes to the water fountain, I watch every move. When the coach is talking to him at time-outs, I watch (everything). I mean he doesn't do anything I don't see." Williams said.
About this year
Williams' team has been criticized this year for lack of leadership.
"I think sometimes leadership is over-blown. You've got to make plays. I don't think we have bad leadership on this team. I think Ryan and T.J., in particular because they've been here four years, have really done a good job."
He said that he thought leadership was sometimes over-rated — but he added that it could make a coaching job a lot easier.
"Words can't describe what he's meant to me over the last four years. I'm a better person for having known (him)."
B.J. Williams
former Kansas basketball player
About his past
Williams started from humble beginnings and has grown to celebrity status in the state of Kansas.
He grew up in the small town of Biltmore, N.C., where he later lettered in basketball and baseball at T.C. Roberson High School.
He attended the University of North Carolina and graduated with a degree in education in 1972.
He played basketball at North Carolina, where his desire to be a coach began, as a non-scholarship player his freshman year. He often watched head coach Dean Smith's practices to gain more knowledge about the game and its techniques.
In 1978, UNC hired Williams as an assistant coach, where he coached with Smith for ten years.
During that time, he
recruited Matt Doherty, now assistant coach at Kansas, and former Bulls player Michael Jordan.
Even though Williams had success at North Carolina, he left Chapel Hill for another hill — in Kansas.
In Fall 1988, Williams joined the rich tradition that is Kansas basketball. He became the University's seventh head coach.
The previous season at Kansas, Danny Manning and teammates won the NCAA Championship with head coach Larry Brown. The next year, Brown left KU, Manning left and Williams entered the picture.
Williams had strict penalties handed to him because of violations that had occurred before his arrival, and Kansas was not be allowed to play in the postseason in 1989.
Williams won his first game Nov. 25, 1988 against Alaska-Anchorage, 94-81.
Despite the restrictions, Kansas went 19-12 during the season, winning 13 of its first 14. In the next season, Williams was named Big Eight and National Coach of the Year.
During the 1990-91 season, the Jayhawks won the Big Eight title and made it to the final game of the tournament. In the Final Four,
Williams beat his alma mater and former team North Carolina, 79-73.
On March 27. 1993, Williams won his 100th game against Colorado in the first round of the Big Eight Tournament.
Kansas advanced to the Final Four again in 1983 by beating top-ranked Indiana and winning the Midwest Regional.
During the next five seasons, Williams' teams made five consecutive appearances in the NCAA tournament, won the final Big Eight Crown in 1996 and won the first Big 12 conference title against K-State in 1997.
Williams has the second highest NCAA tournament winning percentage (70) just behind Mike Krzyzewski of Duke.
Williams' players have earned 11 all-conference honors, 4 All-American honors and conference player-of-the-year three times.
He also finds time to give back to the community.
He has coached the Roy Williams Basketball Camp for ten years and is part of the Coaches vs. Cancer program where he has raised more than $130,000. Williams also is a part of the Big Brothers, Big Sisters program and the Special Olympics.
A spoken word with Marian Washington
Edited by Duane Wagler

Mike Harryity's 20 questions with women's basketball coach Marian Washington:
Marian Washington has had the privilege of coaching phenomenal female athletes such as Lynette Woodard during her years at the University of Kansas. She recently discussed a variety of issues with Kansan sportwriter Mike Harrity. Photo by Jay Shepherd/KANSAN
Harrise: Tell me about the time you dunked at Robinson Center.
Washington: Ted Owens was the coach here, and it was in the early '70s. I became a familiar with a few of his players from teaching badminton over at the P.E. department. I don't know how it even came about, but they were saying things like, "No woman can get up around the rim." So they took me over to the old gym at Robinson. The hard part for women was being able to hold on to the ball. That was the main thing, because if you look back at guys like Dr. J, who was the big player back in my time, that ball was more or less like a volleyball for him. So it wasn't like women couldn't get above the rim, it was just whether you could get above enough and hold on to it.
I just thanked God. Because you know you're being teased by some guys, and I was just glad I could do it.
So I knew a dunk was going to take a little bit of luck to have the ball in my hand to where it needed to be. I don't know how many times I went after it, but I finally put one down. I don't know if it was that pretty, but it went down. Everybody was talking about it like it was some amazing feat.
**Harrity:** Hypothetical situation:
Your home is on fire. Your family is safe. What are five possessions that you would go back and get?
Washington: That's a great question. Anything that could not be replaced, that's the bottom line. Like pictures and sentimental jewelry that I could not replace. That's how it would work. It would be anything that I couldn't replace.
Harrity: Who was the celebrity you were most awestruck meeting?
Washington: I saw Patti LaBelle at an airport one time. I was always so in awe of her life and her talents.
I was just walking and this cart was
going in the opposite direction with all these people on it. And I turned around and there she was, sitting in the back of the cart. And I just said, "Patti." And she just started waving.
And also President Clinton. He's unbelievable. It's just a charisma about him. And he truly is a real caring person. It's not about just going through the motions with him. He's unbelievable.
**Harrity:** How do you feel about Clinton's situation?
Washington: I think he made a terrible mistake. It was personal, and I think it was really cruel how they went about trying to get him. It was very cruel. I try to put myself in people's shoes, and I can tell you that the way he was exposed and to the degree he was exposed was uncalled for. I mean, we didn't have to hear all the details over and over again. It's not right. I mean, they didn't spare us any details, and I think that was cruel. It was obvious that he made a mistake, but I think that they could have censured him and let the people decide what was going to happen after that. But, I think they went way over the line.
I really felt angered that he allowed himself to be in that position because he's been a great president. Just making a poor judgment in his personal life really put him in a position where people really forgot what the real issues were. I'm glad that he was acquitted, but I don't think that anybody could do any more to him than what's been done.
Harrity: Who is the best basket-
ball player ever?
Washington: Certainly Michael Jordan for men. And I would have to say, still, Lynette Woodard. I can tell you that I have a player right now (Lynn Pride) that has the potential of being one of the best ever. But the reason I'd say Lynette is because of what she's accomplished in her four years, and then some. No one ever has come close to matching what she's done. People don't know all that she's done every single year she's played.
Then to see her play, finally, at the age of 39 in the WNBA — you're not going to find many athletes that are able to do what she is still capable of doing at that age.
There was an attitude that Lynette had, that if I could take that attitude and give it to someone like Lynn. Lynn has the physical potential of being one of the most awesome players ever. But Lynette had
no fears. And if there's a separation, I'd say that's how Lynette stands apart.
Harrity: Who would win a one-on-one game between you and Lynn Pride?
remember when I played one-on-one with Lynette, and I beat her (in the late '70s). And it was because I was able to do some of things defensively I was able to do. I would say today, definitely Lynn. But I would try and talk Lynn out of her game.
Harrity: Who is your favorite musician of all time?
Washington: There would be lots of them, but if I was going to listen to one artist, it would be (gospel singer) Mahalia Jackson. And I'm into Yanni right now. Some of what he does is unbelievable. He has this violinist and, by God, he plays the violin like I've never heard before.
And another one is Andrea Bocelli. Luciano Pavarotti. Whitney Houston. I like very soullful music. Patti LaBelle. Aretha Franklin. Celine Dion. And Marvin Gaye was the best of them all for me when it comes to men. He was unbelievable — I loved him.
Harrity; Favorite movie?
Washington: Lots of them, I love all the Biblical ones. Of the current ones, I like Conspiracy Theory, L.A. Confidential.
I love all Fred Astaire movies. I love dancing, and he was unbelievable. He was so creative he could just do anything with anyone and create some kind of art.
Harrity: Back to basketball. Do you ever feel overshadowed by the men's team?
Washington: It never bothers me about the men's team. I'm always happy for them, and I'm very proud of them. I always talk about our unbelievable history and tradition here. It's just that I've always felt that there was room for both. That's the only frustration that I feel from time to time. It's happening, but it's still slow, for me.
I've always had the dream that this University would be one that really could show everybody how it's done. We have two really fine programs and I just think there's room for both.
Harrity: Have you ever parachuted or bungee jumped?
Washington. No. And I would never do it. I don't like heights.
Harrity: Would you ever consider coaching in the WNBA?
Washington: Well, sure. I've had people talk to me about it that last couple of years. It's just that where the WNBA is when it comes to coaches, we're not that far along yet in terms of security. It's still very new and most of the focus is on the players. I do believe that eventually it's going to be a very lucrative avenue.
Harrity: How many more years do you think you'll coach?
Washington: I don't know. I think that the players have kept me wanting to stay in this game at this level. Because I've been fortunate to bring in some great women. Not just competitors, but they've been great people, and they've become great friends of mine. When you're kind of down and out, and you're not sure you want to get back up and do it again, you think about doing it because someone will be looking for you. The athletes have really made this profession really special for me. They've given me some unbelievable memories. So when I do retire, I'm going to have a ball. I'm just going to have fun and enjoy my friends. There are so many things I'm still interested in and don't have a chance to do them. When it's time, I know that I'll know.

Former player reflects on KU days
2329 Iowa·841-4124
By Mike Miller
Kansan sportswriter
There was a time when an athlete's dominance could be measured by the number of nicknames the press gave the athlete.
Babe Ruth had no less than 20 nicknames. Joe Djaggio, Muhammed Ali, Wilt Chamberlain — they all had several nicknames that fit their character and the way they dominated their respective sports.
Clyde Lovellette never asked for all the nicknames. But he earned them as the dominating college player of his day.
"I used to wonder, is it admiration? I always thought they were affectionate, and I never got annoyed with them," Lovellette said. "Even when they were things like the Ponderous Pachyderm of the Plains."
More nicknames, like Cumulous Clyde, the Leaning Tower of Lawrence and the Monster of the Music Hall, affirmed Lovellette's status not only in Lawrence, but in college-basketball lore.
Lovellette, who led Kansas to its first NCAA Championship in 1952, never would have made it to Lawrence had it not been for the legendary Phog Allen.
"Being from Indiana, everyone expected me to play basketball there. It was only 60 miles from my home, and I probably would have if not for Phog. He was like a father to me." Lovellette said.
Allen traveled to Terre Haute, Ind., to visit Lovellette and enticed him to visit Lawrence. It was that visit that convinced the 6-9, 230-pound behemoth to attend KU.
"Phog was very personal and very up front with me. I appreciated that. But when I got to Lawrence, it amazed me how nice the people there were," Lovellette said. "Even if I didn't play basketball, I think they would've liked me anyway."
Allen knew a prized recruit when he saw one. Lovellette led the Jayhawks in scoring and rebounding three straight years — freshmen were not granted eligibility until 1972.
"He had a sweeping hook shot,
and at 6-9 he was much bigger
than most of the players in those days," said Max Falkenstein, longtime radio announcer for the Jayhawks. "He was not particularly quick, but he had great touch and accuracy on his shot."
His hook shot allowed Lovellette to become the first dominant player Kansas would have.
Lovellette averaged 28.4 points per game his senior year and is still the only player to lead the nation in scoring and win the national title in the same year.
During the NCAA Tournament,
Lovellette led the way as the Jayhawks steamrolled every opponent, winning by almost 15 points a game. He averaged 37.7 points per game during the tournament, including 33 points and 17 rebounds in the title game.
LUMBARD 16
ST JOHN 30
ST JOHN 24
A three-time All-American and All-Conference selection, Lovellette was voted the national player of the year in 1952.
That 1952 tournament run, in addition to the Olympic gold medal he won that same year, remains one of his fondest memories of college.

"I think winning the national title and the gold medal in the Olympics is a crowning achievement for any school," he said.
Lovellette is the No.2 all-time scorer in Kansas history at 24.5 points per game and the No.7 rebound with 10.6 rebounds a game.
His dominance in the college game served as a muse for then sports information director Don Pierce.
"He was a very colorful writer who seemed to have an endless amount of nicknames for Clyde," Falkenstein said.
The nicknames followed Lovellette, even after he finished his career at Kansas and after 11 seasons in the NBA.
"I thought they were great. They just carried over everywhere I went." he said.
Basketball gave Lovellette the opportunity to do what he wanted. After retiring from the sport, he worked as a radio announcer for an Indiana sports station, earned his teaching degree from Eastern Illinois, then ran a friend's auto dealership. Then, he fulfilled a lifelong dream and was elected Sheriff
of his home county, Vigo, Ill.
"I always wanted to do law enforcement. It had been a childhood dream." Lovellette said.
Later he moved to Cape Cod and taught school there and managed an antique store. He then retired and moved back to Wabash, Ind., where he now lives.
Today, Lovellette substitute teaches and coaches basketball as a local legend.
"It's great to be able to do things for the kids. I can call the Pacers, ask to speak to Larry Bird, leave a message and have good seats waiting for me at the next home game. Then I'll give them to some neighborhood kids," he said.
As a living legend who earned
every nickname as a dominant player, Lovellette said he has enjoyed everything he has done with his life. He admitted that he always would have a special place in his heart for Kansas.
Lovellel said he watched the Jayhawks whenever he could, and he remains a faithful Jayhawk — even in the heart of Big 10 country.
Though he admits that this year's Kansas team is not as dominant as it has been in years past, he said he thought that they would come around.
"Roy's too good of a coach. He'll get those kids to play together by the end of the year," Lovellette said.

Kansas recruit Collison shoots for his dream
By Matt Tait
Kansan sportswriter
It possibly is the most fabled tale in American sports history. A young boy in a Midwestern town shooting baskets until the sun goes down, dreaming of the day when he would be a basketball star.
For Nick Collison, one of Kansas' newest star recruits, that dream is becoming a reality.
Collison, a 6-foot-9 power forward from Iowa Falls, Iowa, was tasted as one of the top high school recruits in the nation. He was recruited by such universities as Arizona, Kentucky, Iowa and Notre Dame, before bringing his decision to a two-school race. The two finalists were Duke and Kansas.
"I really liked both of those school's styles of play. They just go out and play basketball." Collison said. "Of course they have plays, but their styles seem to suit my skills best."
Collison said while both schools had many of the same advantages, Kansas had more advantages in what Collison considered important areas.
"I think between the two schools I liked Kansas better because it's closer to home, and I felt like I got to know the players and coaches a lot better there," Collison said.
Proximity, style, and reputation all had an influence on Collison's final decision, but he said that it was coach Roy Williams who was important in finalizing Collison's choice.
"I liked Coach Williams right away," Collison said. "He was very honest and straightforward, and he tells it how it is. I like that about him. There was nothing he told me that wasn't true."
Collison is unique regarding where he went for recruiting advice. Like most recruits, Col-
lison talked with his teammates and friends. However, unlike most recruits, Collison and his father, Dave, also talked to former Kansas All-American and Iowa native, RaeLaFrentz.
"We visited with Raef about recruiting and asked his advice, not only about KU, but about the process in general," Dave Collison said. "We were really impressed by how much Raef enjoyed his entire experience at KU."
Dave Collison, who was his son's high school basketball coach, said that he tried to separate his role as a coach and father and let Nick make his own decision.
"As parents, his mother and I were there to answer questions and talk about it if he wanted to," Dave Collison said. "As a coach, I tried to get Nick to look at how they play and how he would like to be coached along with getting a feel for the people and personalities there."
Collison's parents also stressed the importance of picking a school that he would enjoy even if he could not play basketball.
"With the Midwest atmosphere I think Nick will feel more comfortable, because there are a lot of kids like Nick there," Dave Collison said. "I think he liked Kansas all along, and it probably would have been his first choice."
Joining Collison at Kansas next year will be fellow Iowan and former Amatuer Athletic Union teammate Kirk Hinrich, a 6-foot-3 point guard from Sioux City, Iowa, and Andrew Gooden, a 6-foot-10 forward from El Cerrito, Calif. According to many recruiting experts, these three recruits will make up one of the best incoming classes in the nation.

Years of basketball greats made fieldhouse tradition
Players, coaches, fans impressed with atmosphere
By Michael T. Rigg Kansan sportswriter
The sign has warned many who have entered Allen Fieldhouse, but few teams have listened.
"Pay heed all ye who enter," the sign screams down from the top of the rafters. "Beware of the Phog."
No one was listening from February 1994 to December 1998 when the Kansas men's basketball team did not lose a single home game, an amazing 62 straight home victories.
Kentucky certainly was made a believer on Dec. 9, 1989, when the team members limped away from Lawrence as 150-95 losers.
Allen Fieldhouse also has seen track meets, football practices, Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls, 37 NCAA tournament games and more than five million screaming Jawhawk fans since the 1964-65 season.
The fieldhouse has seen its share of glory dating back to its beginning on March 1, 1955, when an overflow crowd of 17,228 — still the largest home crowd in Jayhawk history — poured into the sparkling new arena and watched Kansas defeat Kansas State, 77-66.
The fieldhouse, which was named after Kansas basketball's winning coach, Forrest C. "Phog" Allen, was built in 1955 at a cost of $2.5 million, a paltry sum compared
to the $3.5 million paid just to renovate the building before this season.
Men's basketball season tickets have been sold out for the past 14 years, and nearly 1,900 people have put their names on the season-ticket waiting list.
"It's a very special place," men's basketball coach Roy Williams said. "I've said this many times, and I truly believe this, that Allen Fieldhouse, is the best place to coach and play college basketball."
Kansas alumna and member of the WNBA's Los Angeles Sparks Tamecka Dixon agrees.
"My favorite memory of playing basketball at Kansas is definitely Allen Fieldhouse," Dixon said. "The tradition there is great. The one thing I take away from Kansas is the home games at Allen Fieldhouse."
Many Jayhawk fans see the tradition of the fieldhouse as its main draw. On top of all the championship banners, the retired jerseys of players including Danny Manning, Lynette Woodard and Wilt Chamberlain stare down onto the playing floor.
"I'ts truly the Yankee Stadium of college basketball." David Leigh, Fort Scott freshman, said. "You can't top the atmosphere at Allen Fieldhouse."
Williams shared Leigh's sentiments.
"To this day, I still get chills when I walk through that tunnel and out onto the court," Williams said. "In fact, the day I don't get those chills is the day it's time to walk away from basketball."

Kansas fans' loyalty keeps hope alive
Freshmen dream of NCAA title
By Brandon Stinnett Kanson sportswriter
Many KU freshman basketball fans wish they could have a memory like Bob Lockwood.
Lockwood, a physical education graduate student, was a junior in 1888 when the Kansas men's basketball team made its historic run to the national championship.
still looms large in Lockwood's mind.
"It was an incredible feeling," Lockwood said. "You never would have expected them to win it all."
The party atmosphere on campus after the Jayhawks pulled off the stunning upset against Oklahoma in the championship game
"It was just a fun scene," he said.
"It was having fun and being around people. Everybody was giving hugs and high fives. It was a happy party."
Like most Kansas students at the time, Lockwood was a huge fan of Javahawk star Danny Manning.
"Danny was obviously one of the greatest players ever for KU and college basketball," he said. "Anybody who liked Jayhawk basketball was a big Danny Manning fan and probably still is."
A lot has changed. Manning is in the NBA and Kansas has not won a national championship since. This season, the Jayhawks have dropped three games at Allen Fieldhouse and are two games out of first place in the Big 12 Conference.
Lockwood said he doesn't think that matters.
"I think we are true fans, and we are just as excited about Kansas basketball as back then," said Lockwood. "We are not fair-weather fans."
---
Hank Puls, Olathe freshman, said it was frustrating to see Kansas struggling this season.
"But it it's still fun to go to the games," Puls said. "If they couldn't beat anybody, I'd probably still go. They'll rebound. They'll be good again."
He said that the camaraderie between the fans was what he expected before the season began.
"Camping out and going to games is a great experience. I wish everyone could experience it once," Puls said.
Puls said he wanted to see the Jayhawks win another national championship.
"If KU would win a national championship while I was here attending school, it would be something I'd remember my entire life," he said.
Mike Snyder, Omaha, Neb., freshman, has a different reason for wanting the Jayhawks to win the championship.
"It would be great, because I could talk to all my friends back in Nebraska," he said.
One of the reasons that Snyder chose to attend the University was to attend basketball games.
"I came here for the tradition of KU basketball," Snyder said. "I've always followed the KU basketball team in Omaha."

NCAA tournament history filled with Kansas memories of victories, losses
By Brad Hallier
Kansan sportswriter
What began as a simple, eight-tem
tournament in 1939 has blossomed
into an annual 64-team dance every
March.
ne men's NCAA basketball tournament is one of the most anticipated months in sports every year.
"Making the field of 64 is the standard by which everyone judges a basketball program," Kansas athletics director Bob Frederick said.
The first tournament began with Villanova defeating Brown 42-30 and ended with Oregon topping Ohio State 46-33. That championship game was played in front of a sparse crowd of 5,500 at Evanston, Ill. To promote more interest in the tournament, former Kansas coach Phog Allen convinced the NCAA to move the championship game to Kansas City, which it did for the 1940 tournament.
In addition to being host of the championship game, Municipal Auditorium was the venue for the Western Regional. Kansas made it to the final, but lost to Indiana 60-42. That game was played in front of 10,000 spectators, nearly doubling the previous total.
In 1951, the tournament field expanded to 16 teams. It was also the first tournament to give out automatic bids to conference champions.
In 1952, the Jayhawks, led by most Valuable Player Clyde Lovellette's 33 points and 17 rebounds, defeated St. John's 80-63 in the final game.
In 1953, Kansas returned to the championship game. But despite playing at the friendly confines of Municipal Auditorium and a Most Valuable Player performance from B. H. Born. Indiana held off Kansas 69-68.
1956 was the first year for the fourregion format.
Kansas reappeared in the championship game again in 1957, against at Municipal Auditorium. The game pitched the Jayhawks against North Carolina. In what was possibly the greatest championship game ever, the Tar Heels held Final Four MVP Wilt Chamberlain to 23 points and won in trible overtime 54-53.
The tournament fluctuated between 22 and 25 teams between 1953 and 1974. During that time, Kansas would appear in two more Final Fours, but the highlight of this era was the run by the UCLA Bruins. They won nine titles in that period, including an unprecedented seven in a row.
The field expanded to 32 teams in 1975, and the UCLA dynasty reached its climax with a 10th title.
In 1979, the field expanded to 40 teams. That year, Larry Bird led his
undefeated Indiana State Sycamores against Magic Johnson's Michigan State Spartans. The game was the highest-rated college basketball game on television ever, as the Spartans won.
The next year, the field expanded to 48 teams.
The 1980s featured plenty of drama as three underdog teams shocked the nation with national championships.
In 1983, North Carolina State defeated Houston on a last-second dunk, 54-52. Wolfpack coach Jim Valvano provided a lasting memory after the game, running around the court, looking for anyone to hug.
The field expanded for the last time in 1985, to 64 teams.
Don't expect the field to expand again any time soon. Gary Johnson, senior statistics coordinator for the NCAA, said 64 teams was the ideal number.
"I like 64 (teams) a lot," he said.
"There are no play-ins, and if any team wants to win the championship, they have to win six games like everybody else."
In 1985, Villanova became the lowest seed ever to win the title. The Wildcats, seeded eight, marched to the final against fellow Big East rival, Georgetown. In that game, Villanova shot 79 percent from the field and shocked the Hoyas 66-64.
Kansas returned to the Final Four in 1986 after a 12-year hiatus. Kansas fell to Duke 71-67 in the semifinals. In the other semifinal, eventual champion Louisville defeated LSU, which was the lowest-seeded team ever in the Final Four as an 11th seed.
The 1988 Jayhawks are the champions with most losses. With 11 losses that season, Frederick said there were plans to print NIT tickets that year.
"Clearly, the national championship was a great thrill, particularly with the season we had," he said. "At mid-season, nobody expected us to make the tournament. let alone win it."
The Jayhawks capped their title run with a near-perfect performance in a 83-79 victory against Oklahoma in front of a pro-Jayhawk crowd at Kemper Arena in Kansas City, Mo. Danny Manning became the fourth Final Four MVP at Kansas.
The 1990s have had a fair share of thrills as well. Kansas has appeared in two Final Fours this decade, in 1991 and 1993.
This year's tournament field contains only one team that will hold the championship trophy.
As former Kansas guard Kevin Pritchard said, "That's the bitter-sweet thing about the tournament—the possibility to lose any game."

With the NCAA Tournament less than two weeks away, it's time to look into the proverbial crystal ball and try to figure out who's in, who's out and who's going to win.
The men's side of the tournament should showcase some familiar faces, but some new faces could make a difference in the "Big Dance." There seems to be a consensus, right now, of who will be the No.1 seed in each bracket.
In the East, No. 1-ranked Duke should be the top seed. Auburn should be the No. 1 seed in the South. The No. 1 seed in the Midwest should go to Michigan State. Out West, the Connecticut Huskies should be the top dogs.
All of these projections are based on those teams winning their respective regular season conference titles and not self-destructing at the conference tournaments.
Oklahoma State point guard Doug Gottlieb, second in the nation in assists, goes to the Final Four every year. He not only has his eye on the Big 12 race, but he keeps tabs on other teams across the country.
"Personally, I like Michigan State," Gottlieb said. "You've got to like Duke. Those are my two favorites. Auburn's play has been solid, but they've got to watch out for South Carolina syndrome, feeling the pressure of the Big Dance.
"I think Stanford's very good. A lot depends on their draw. Utah, because they're so well-coached, is always tough. St. John's could beat some people. To be honest, I like Texas' chances. They've got two of the best inside players in the nation and two experienced wings."
It is a common opinion that Texas will represent the Big 12, but who else? History lends itself to Kansas, but a lot is riding on the Big 12 Tournament. Along with the Jayhawks, Nebraska, Missouri, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State all are going to need a good showing at the Big 12 Tourney to get an at-large bid.
After the 30 conference champions receive bids, the power conferences all should receive their standard five or maybe even six, seven or possibly eight teams in.
From the Big 10: Michigan State, Wisconsin, Ohio State, Minnesota, Iowa, Indiana, Purdue and Northwestern all could get in. From the ACC: Duke, North Carolina, Maryland and North Carolina State all
may make it. From the Big East: UConn, St. John's, Syracuse, Miami, Villanova and possibly Rutgers. From the Pacific-10: Stanford, UCLA, Arizona and Oregon all could go to the Dance.
Jason Makler, a free-lance NBA scout on the East Coast, has his favorites as well.
"The key to the NCAA Tournament is being hot when it comes," Makler said. "UConn has had to play a tough Big East schedule all year, and survived, except for the game they played without (Jake) Voskul and (Richard) Hamilton. Maryland I know is good. Miami is impossible to blow out. Texas, talking about momentum, is just rolling, and I really think whoever wins the Ivy League can make it to the Sweet 16."
On the women's side of the tournament, the usual suspects should fill the top seeds. Three-time defending champion Tennessee should be No.1 in the Midwest. Louisiana Tech should be the top seed in the East. In the Midwest, Purdue should be seated on top. In the West, like their male counterparts the Connecticut Huskies should be the No.1 seeds.
Phoenix-based free-lance reporter Christopher Hayden has a good idea who he thinks is the team to beat.
"I've got three words," Hayden said. "Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee. The Lady Vols are too tough. Chamique Holdswclaw and Tamika Catchings lead the same team that has won three straight. It will be a formidable task for a team to upset Pat Summitt's team this year."
Unlike the Kansas men, the Kansas women are a lock for the tournament. They should be joined by fellow Big 12 mates, Texas Tech, Iowa State and Nebraska.
The other big conferences should get at least four teams in. From the ACC: Duke, North Carolina, Clemson, Virginia and North Carolina State all have a chance. From the Big East: UConn, Rutgers, Notre Dame and Boston College all could get in. From the Big 10: Purdue, Ohio State, Penn State and Illinois could all go "dancing."
Now that all the predicting is through, the only thing left to do is wait until the brackets are announced, so all the experts can quit worrying about the bubble teams and concentrate on the upsets, the Cinderellas and the Madness.
